Chapter eighty-ninth [to make friends must be better than oneself, it is better not to be like me]
On Saturday, September 22, Constantine invited Liang Kun to have a meal and said she wanted to treat her to a good place.
Last time Liang Kun invited Constantine to have a meal in the cafeteria, and now he proves in a straightforward way that he is a Chinese master and knows how to communicate with others. In France, even friends with great relationships are still aa-based when going out for dinner. Of course, this is limited to young students. After work, French people also pay attention to personal connections, so it is normal to treat guests to dinner.
He also specially named Liang Kun to take care of his girlfriend, but if he didn't, he would find a friend of the opposite sex who had a good impression of him. Because he would bring his girlfriend with him and introduce it to Liang Kun to meet him.
Liang Kun decisively called Liang Shuang out. He should not forget his sister if there is something good, so he let her dress up beautifully to attend the party.
Having had a life experience of failure in previous life, Liang Kun considered making friends and establishing interpersonal relationships very important. He believed that if you want to quickly gain a foothold in Yanjing, you must meet more powerful friends, such as Constantine and Sun Rui.
There is an old saying in China: "Becoming friends with oneself must be better than oneself, it is better to have nothing if I am worse than nothing."
This sounds cruel, but in fact it means seeing through human nature.
Confucius also said, "If three people walk, I will have a teacher; choose the good ones and follow them, and correct the bad ones." We must make friends who "complement each other". When we see the "ungood ones", we should reflect on whether we have the same shortcomings.
To put it bluntly, the friends you make must have something worth learning from, so that you can learn from each other's strengths and make progress together. Otherwise, it is not to learn well. To give a typical example, Liu Bei met Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
There is actually another understanding of this statement, which is based on the moral level. It is beneficial to make friends with those who are moral and noble. If they are low morals and have bad habits, it is better not to communicate with them. As the saying goes, people with virtuous and good qualities are of high quality, and they are born in the hemp. If they do not support them, they will be straight. White sand is in the nirvana, and they will be black with them!
Liang Kun’s friends in his previous life were all gangsters, and he was the same, and he would not make the same mistake again.
After meeting at the school gate of Yan University, Liang Shuang was a little listless and said that she had failed in the election for the class monitor. In the end, the class monitor was not her, and the counselor appointed a boy.
"This is nothing to be depressed. Not being a squad leader can also be beneficial, and life has become easier." Liang Kun said with a smile.
"That's not what you said that day. Didn't you want to exercise?" Liang Shuang thought he would be disappointed.
"It's of course good to exercise, but it's not just about being a class leader, and all the roads lead to Rome. Anyway, with me in the future, you will have a future."
I am lucky to get it, but I am lucky to lose it. Liang Kun always has this mentality when doing things. Moreover, he said a lot of things that day for Liu Junshan to listen to, but it really doesn't matter what the result is. As a squad leader, Liang Shuang didn't even have a yellow question mark on her head. She had no obsession at all, but it was just a whim.
"I did nothing in school. You all know French friends. Are you learning French because you know fortune-telling?" Liang Shuangxia thought it was useless for Liang Kun to learn French, but he quickly used it, which was a bit incredible.
"I just wanted to learn more, but I didn't expect to meet French students."
"How is he? Is he handsome?"
"A handsome blonde guy, and his family is very rich. I don't know how rich I am."
As the two were talking, Constantine drove a car with her girlfriend. He was driving an Audi A6. After getting off the bus, many students looked at them at the school gate. The students were very eye-catching in driving this kind of car.
"Okay, his family is richer than I thought." Liang Kun murmured to himself and waved to the two of them.
Liang Kun has never driven a luxury car, but he knows that the new Audi A6 of this era sells about 400,000 yuan, which is basically the most expensive model among domestic joint venture cars at present, and is even more expensive than many houses.
Constantine wore a black T-shirt, burgundy jacket, dark blue jeans, black sneakers, and sunglasses. Because of her wide shoulders and narrow hips, the casual clothes were a bit like a military uniform when worn on him.
Liang Shuangxin said it doesn’t matter whether Liang Kun is the squad leader or not. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. Rich foreigners like him so much. How can he be worse in the future?
"Hello, I'm Constantine Lambot, I'm very happy to know you." Constantine greeted Liang Shuang in Chinese.
"Hello, I am his sister... My name is Liang Shuang." Liang Shuang said in a stiff tone and very nervous.
This is also a kind of exercise. She had the first time in her life that she had close contact with foreigners.
She admired Liang Kun even more. She was nervous when she spoke Chinese to Constantine. Liang Kun could actually attract the other party to make friends and speak French. Should he say he was nervous? Or was his psychological quality strong?
She felt that Liang Kun might be more suitable for studying business administration rather than studying literature, and he had attractive qualities.
Maintaining a normal mind is the reason why Liang Kun can talk freely with Constantine. He is not afraid of saying the wrong thing.
There were many Chinese people who admired foreign countries in this era, because the economy of European and American powers was more developed, and foreigners from Europe and the United States were generally richer than Chinese people.
Liang Kun did not admire or inferiority complex for foreigners. He knew that China's economy would take off after 2010, and many Europeans and Americans like to study abroad. It has become the norm for Chinese people to travel abroad, and because of their crazy buying, it is called "mobile wallets."
Liang Kun explained with a smile: "She is a little nervous, afraid that the etiquette of the first meeting will be inappropriate."
Constantine smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have been in China for many years, and now I rarely misunderstand what others mean."
"You misunderstood. She wasn't afraid of saying the wrong thing. She was nervous because I told her that the French were very enthusiastic. When I saw the opposite sex, I kissed her left and right."
╭(°a°`)╮Do you dare to be more nonsense? Liang Shuang blushed and punched Liang Kun in the back.
Constantine was stunned for a moment, thinking about what it meant, and laughed. "I won't do this. This is China. There is an idiom called "What to do..."
"Accompanies the customs in the countryside." Liang Kun gave the correct answer.
"Yes, that's it, I like your jokes." Constantine smiled.
Seeing that Liang Kun was very familiar with the other party, Liang Shuang felt relaxed suddenly. It seemed that she was a very easy-to-talk person.
Liang Kun found out Constantine's character in two days. It was more than just easy to talk to, but this guy was just a French chatterbox.
During military training, many people thought he was a cold and cool guy, but in fact he was shy and indifferent. Because his accent was a bit strange, if you didn’t talk to him, he wouldn’t look for you. If you became friends with him, he would be very happy to be blinded with you.
Constantine held the girl around 170cm in size next to her, with a little arrogant expression. "This is my girlfriend Xu Zhenzhen. We are high school classmates. She is a local. This is Liang Kun and Liang Shuang."
After listening to the suggestion, Constantine slowed down her speech. Her Chinese pronunciation was better and easier to understand. His accent was a bit strange. Liang Shuang heard "Jingkun" and "two-double pairs". He pronounced his girlfriend's name quite accurately.
"Liang Kun, I have read your news reports and I am very happy to know you." Xu Zhenzhen greeted the two brothers and sisters.
Liang Kun looked at Xu Zhenzhen. Her side-parted hairstyle was just draped over her shoulders. She looked average, had single eyelids and didn't have big eyes, and had a good figure. She was good at dressing up and was wearing a white casual jacket with black patterns and blue jeans. This era looked very fashionable.
At the same time, Xu Zhenzhen was also looking at the two siblings. Their clothes were not famous brands at first glance, but they were well matched and the effect was very good, highlighting their advantages.
Xu Zhenzhen felt that this was the reason why her boyfriend and Liang Kun hit it off at first sight. They are the same kind of people, they attach importance to food and clothing, and are humorous and funny.
Liang Kun wore a dark blue casual jacket, yellow casual pants, and a dark blue baseball cap, which was very sunny. Liang Shuang wore a Korean sportswear with an open collar, dark rose red, and gray patterns on her sleeves. She looked full of vitality with her complexion.
Xu Zhenzhen knew that Liang Kun was a sports student, and it was better to see him than to hear him. At a glance, she felt that the brother and sister had super physical fitness.
In fact, it was not long before the two changed their looks. Liang Kun had a future vision and knew how to wear clothes. He bought them after he went to Yanjing. The coats they used to stay at their home in Quancheng were bought by their parents. They had bad vision and were very rustic.
After getting on the car, Liang Kun sat in the passenger seat and asked, "You can drive as soon as you go to school?"
"I just learned it in summer. This is my dad's car. I usually don't have to stop if I want to drive to school." Constantine explained. Whether it is his or his dad's, it is the difference between only the second generation of rich generation and the first generation.
"Where are we going?" Liang Kun asked.
"When eating hot pot, don't you want to try the authentic Yanjing food? Zhenzhen knows where it is." Constantine drove on the road.
Xu Zhenzhen is also a foodie and does not hide this. "I also know where the food shops in Yanjing are difficult to find. In fact, he and I are so easy to eat. We can talk about it in terms of food."
Liang Shuang said curiously: "Are we going to Wangfu Shi Snack Street?"
Liang Kun turned his head and gave her a contemptuous look: "You are so amateur. You will never be in the Wangfu Stone. It is just a fool to tourists. Only locals can know the most authentic food."
"At first glance, you are an expert. Do you know a lot of good stores in Quancheng?" Xu Zhenzhen praised. People among the people can easily resonate with each other.
"I know, but I usually don't go because what I make is very good." Liang Kun smiled.
Liang Shuang didn't understand why they looked down on the famous snack street, so Xu Zhenzhen sat in the back seat and started telling her.
Because it is too famous, it seems that it is a great regret to not go to Wangfushi when traveling to Yanjing. No tourists from other places will miss it. The snack street is not so warm during the day on weekdays, and at night it is like a city that never sleeps, but Yanjing people rarely go to that place.
