Rebirth of Siheyuan starts in the 1980s

Soon, Cao Zhiqiang caught up with Yu Yuanyuan who was waiting for the elevator in the elevator room.

"Sister Yuanyuan..."

"Stop talking, don't say anything!"

Yu Yuanyuan, whose eyes were red, shook her head at Cao Zhiqiang, then wiped her tears with her sleeve and continued to stand there waiting for the elevator.

Seeing Yu Yuanyuan like this, Cao Zhiqiang stopped talking and stood beside her, waiting for the elevator with her.

Soon, the elevator came, and as soon as the door opened, Yu Yuanyuan rushed in.

Cao Zhiqiang quickly followed and entered the elevator.

After entering the elevator, Yu Yuanyuan said to the elevator lady: "First floor, thank you."

The elevator lady in uniform glanced at Yu Yuanyuan and then at Cao Zhiqiang. Instead of pressing the floor button immediately, she frowned and said to Yu Yuanyuan in Mandarin with a Cantonese flavor: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

?Is someone bullying you? Do you want me to call security for you?"

Having said this, the elevator lady looked at Cao Zhiqiang warily again.

Cao Zhiqiang quickly spread his hands, shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Don't look at me, I'm not the one bullying you. I'm just her brother. I followed her because I was afraid that something would happen to her. I...sister, please say something! If you don't say anything, I

You will be regarded as a gangster!"

Yu Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, then shook her head at the elevator lady: "It's not that he bullied me, he, he was really just my brother, and he followed me because he was worried about me."

"Really?" the elevator lady asked again suspiciously.

"It's true." Yu Yuanyuan wiped her tears and nodded.

The elevator lady smiled and pressed the button for the first floor.

After a while, the elevator reached the first floor and opened its doors again.

At this time, the elevator lady said to Yuanyuan: "Guest, we have arrived on the first floor, and there is..."

After a short pause, the elevator lady said to Yuanyuan with a determined face: "Miss, no matter what happens, you must be strong. Tears are the most useless thing. You must hold on!"

Yu Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded to the elevator lady: "Yes, thank you very much."

The elevator lady said to Cao Zhiqiang again: "Young man, please help me more!"

Cao Zhiqiang was also stunned: "Ah? Oh, yes, I understand."

When Cao Zhiqiang nodded, the elevator lady who spoke Cantonese Mandarin nodded and closed the elevator with a smile.

After the interruption from the Cantonese-speaking elevator lady, Yu Yuanyuan's mood was effectively relieved, but she still didn't want to talk to Cao Zhiqiang, so she headed out.

When I walked to the gate, I realized that it had started raining outside.

The rain was neither heavy nor light, just moderate rain.

When he saw it was raining outside, Cao Zhiqiang said: "Sister, why don't you wait here and I'll ask the driver to come over and drive you back?"

Yu Yuanyuan took a deep breath: "No need!"

After saying that, Yu Yuanyuan rushed out fiercely.

"Sister!" Cao Zhiqiang shouted, "No, come back. Anyway, just wait and I'll get you an umbrella!"

After shouting twice, he found that Yu Yuanyuan was not stopping at all. Cao Zhiqiang had no choice but to chase after her, fearing that something might happen to her.

Not long after chasing him out, he saw Yu Yuanyuan rushing into the road, and then a motorcycle was driving from the side and was about to hit Yu Yuanyuan.

Yu Yuanyuan was so frightened that she stood blankly on the roadside looking at the motorcycle, not knowing how to dodge.

Cao Zhiqiang was anxious and immediately quickened his pace and rushed over. At the critical moment, he grabbed Yu Yuanyuan's arm and pulled her into his arms.

With this pull, the motorcycle that braked suddenly rubbed Yu Yuanyuan's back and sped directly over, almost hitting Yu Yuanyuan and almost falling to the ground due to the slippery road due to the rain.

Fortunately, the rider of the motorcycle controlled the motorcycle properly. He put his left foot on the ground and twisted the front of the motorcycle, so that he did not fall.

Immediately afterwards, the rider on the motorcycle parked the car, got out of the car, and walked towards here while yelling:

"You don't have eyes, but you still want to die? Damn, you suddenly jumped out from the roadside. Are you tired of living? If you want to die, don't hurt me! Come here, what are you going to do about this?"

Cao Zhiqiang patted the frightened Yu Yuanyuan on the back and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang pulled the trembling Yu Yuanyuan behind and said calmly to the motorcyclist who came angrily in the rain:

"I said, buddy, it's almost over. You're fine, so don't let it go on forever. And if something really happens and you hit someone, you'll be more responsible.

You don't have any problem now, just leave quickly and don't make yourself uncomfortable."

The male motorcyclist twisted his mouth: "Young man? What a beautiful thought? You almost killed me, and you just want to end it like this? No way!"

Cao Zhiqiang frowned and said: "I'm not in the mood to break up with you now. If you don't leave...Old Zhang!"

Following Cao Zhiqiang's final shout, a middle-aged man holding an unopened umbrella and wearing a suit suddenly appeared from behind. It was Zhang Qianjin.

It turned out that Zhang Qianjin had been waiting in the hotel lobby. When he saw Cao Zhiqiang and Yu Yuanyuan appearing at the same time, he was discerning and did not follow them.

Only after Cao Zhiqiang also rushed out did he rush out with an umbrella.

However, although Zhang Qianjin was carrying an umbrella, he did not open it and followed Cao Zhiqiang behind.

To follow, you must have the consciousness of following.

Speaking of which, Zhang Qianjin was a follower in the early days. Later, when the boss he followed joined the company, he became self-employed on his own, so he was quite familiar with the job of a follower.

Theoretically, Zhang Qianjin and Yang An'an are the same person.

It's just that Yang An'an's family background is worse, his character is more honest, and he was sent to the countryside at that time, and he could only work three rounds when he came back.

Zhang Qianjin's family background was slightly better and his personality was more flexible. He was lucky enough to stay in the capital because he was the youngest, so he later became self-employed.

But no matter what, as a group of people who have not made a living within the system, they all have a common characteristic, which is that they have been looked down upon and have been particularly good at eye-catching since they were young.

Of course, Cao Zhiqiang had already known that Zhang Qianjin was waiting in the lobby, and when he chased Yu Yuanyuan to the lobby, he had already seen Zhang Qianjin.

But at that time, Cao Zhiqiang's main thoughts were on Yuanyuan, and he knew that Zhang Qianjin would follow quietly like in the past, so he didn't say hello.

But this time, Cao Zhiqiang found that someone was being unreasonable, so he began to summon Zhang Qianjin.

Well, it's not that Cao Zhiqiang is afraid of not being able to defeat the opponent, but that Cao Zhiqiang doesn't want to take action.

Just kidding, how can porcelain touch tiles?

After all, Cao Zhiqiang is now a well-known poet and the president of a publishing house, and he is already a person of social status.

What's more, this was 1983, the quiet period before the storm.

If you fight with someone on the street at this time, the problem may be big or small.

Of course, when Cao Zhiqiang asked Zhang Qianjin to come out, he did not really ask Zhang Qianjin to take action.

He just wanted to make the other party realize the difference in numbers between the two sides and retreat when faced with difficulties.

Sure enough, when Zhang Qianjin suddenly appeared, the motorcycle rider who was still cursing and walking over stopped for a moment, and then looked at Zhang Qianjin warily.

"Brother!" Zhang Qianjin, who took the initiative to come to Cao Zhiqiang, grinned at the middle-aged man, "Hurry up and don't make yourself uncomfortable!"

The middle-aged man riding a motorcycle frowned: "Who are you? What does this have to do with you?"

Zhang Jinjin shook his head, stopped talking nonsense, took out a dagger from his arms, and opened it with one hand.

Since Zhang Qianjin followed Yu Yuanyuan with his back to Cao Zhiqiang and was playing with the dagger in front of his chest, only the motorcyclist in front saw it, not Cao Zhiqiang and Yu Yuanyuan.

Zhang Qianjin opened the dagger with one hand and smiled at the motorcycle rider: "Brother, it's all a misunderstanding. Since everyone is fine and it's raining, let's forget it, okay?"

The motorcyclist looked at the dagger Zhang Qianjin put on his chest, then at Zhang Qianjin's smile and his suit.

Finally, he knew he was in trouble.

So he also smiled and said: "Yes, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."

After saying that, he took a few steps back. Seeing that Zhang Qianjin had no intention of catching up, he quickly ran to the side of the motorcycle that had not turned off, hurriedly got on the motorcycle, put it in gear, twisted the accelerator, and ran away with a bang.

After the motorcycle rider left, Zhang Qianjin put away the dagger and put it back in his arms. Then he turned around and smiled at Cao Zhiqiang: "President, that's it."

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Qianjin handed over the umbrella with both hands: "Also, you'd better hold an umbrella. It's not good if you catch a cold."

Cao Zhiqiang nodded, took the umbrella, turned around and said to Yu Yuanyuan, who was trembling with her arms folded, "Sister Yuanyuan, it's okay, don't be afraid."

Having said this, Cao Zhiqiang opened the umbrella and blocked Yu Yuanyuan's head, not caring that half of his body was still outside the umbrella.

Yu Yuanyuan said while trembling: "I, I... thank you, Zhiqiang."

"Thank you for nothing." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "You are my sister, you should do everything."

Then, Cao Zhiqiang said: "Sister, it's so dark and it's raining. Otherwise, if you don't run around, I'll take you back right now."

Having said this, Cao Zhiqiang turned to Zhang Qian and said: "Old Zhang, bring the car over and send..."

"Wait!" Yu Yuanyuan interrupted quickly, "I, I won't go back! No!"

Cao Zhiqiang paused, and then continued to say to Zhang Qian: "Go and bring the car over, I'll wait for you here."

"Yes." Zhang Qianjin nodded, looked around, and then ran away alone.

As soon as Zhang Qianjin left, Yu Yuanyuan quickly moved the umbrella towards Cao Zhiqiang: "Zhiqiang, go ahead and don't get wet."

Cao Zhiqiang simply stood close to Yu Yuanyuan's side: "Let's go together, that's all."

Yu Yuanyuan trembled, then lowered her head and said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescence.

In this way, Cao Zhiqiang and Yu Yuanyuan stood side by side. Then Cao Zhiqiang held an umbrella and waited quietly with Yu Yuanyuan in the rain for Zhang Qianjin to drive over.

Seemingly finding the atmosphere a bit strange, Yu Yuanyuan said, "You, you don't have to worry about me, I, I'm fine."

"You still said it's okay?" Cao Zhiqiang turned his head and said dissatisfied, "If it hadn't been for me just now, you would have been hit by a motorcycle."

Yu Yuanyuan folded her arms and continued to lower her head and said nothing.

Seeing her pitiful and dejected look, soaked by the rain, Cao Zhiqiang secretly sighed: "Sister, it's so late. If you don't go home, where are you going?"

"Ah?" Yu Yuanyuan frowned, "Yeah, where should I go..."

Soon, Yu Yuanyuan figured it out: "Well, you take me to the hospital, and I'll live in the hospital dormitory."

"How can we do this in a hospital dormitory?" Cao Zhiqiang shook his head, "That's enough for normal times. You are soaked now. There is no change of clothes or toiletries in the dormitory. How can you stay overnight?"

"It's okay." Yu Yuanyuan forced a smile, "The hospital has nurse uniforms, I can change into them."

"What about taking a bath? How do you take a bath?" Cao Zhiqiang asked.

"No need to take a shower." Yu Yuanyuan said, "The shower is not particularly severe, and it is not particularly cold now. I, I can just go back and wipe it with a towel."

Speaking of this, Yu Yuanyuan seemed to realize that she was talking about wiping herself in front of a man, and Yu Yuanyuan lowered her head shyly.

Fortunately, it was dark and raining now, so Cao Zhiqiang didn't see Yu Yuanyuan's blush.

Cao Zhiqiang sighed: "Sister, why don't you go to the hospital tonight, it won't be good for you to rest.

In this way, first go to the Peking hotel where I am staying, and I will open a separate room for you. You can take a hot bath in it, then sleep well and have a good rest.

I'll call your sister later and ask her to send you the clothes you need. How about you go back tomorrow?"

"No need." Yu Yuanyuan shook her head, "It's really troublesome."

"What's the trouble?" Cao Zhiqiang said, "It's just a room. It may be troublesome to others, but it's just a trivial matter to me.

Okay, stop talking, it’s settled! Just listen to me this time, sister!”

When she heard Cao Zhiqiang say these words so forcefully, Yu Yuanyuan felt a warm current surge from the bottom of her heart for no reason.

The emergence of this warm current made Yu Yuanyuan's previous disappointment, sadness and pain suddenly disappear.

All that was left was her pounding heartbeat, and a kind of uneasiness that she couldn't describe, a mix of fear and anticipation.

Yu Yuanyuan didn't know what she was thinking at this time.

All she knew was that she didn't want to reject Cao Zhiqiang, and she couldn't.

It seems that listening to his words can make me feel more at ease.

It seems that seeing Yu Yuanyuan keeping her head down and not speaking, Cao Zhiqiang thought that the other party was not happy and resisted with silence, so he persuaded again: "Sister, just listen to me this time, sister, are you talking?"

"Yes!" Yu Yuanyuan nodded, "I will listen to you!"

Upon hearing that Yu Yuanyuan agreed, Cao Zhiqiang breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Cao Zhiqiang was still complaining in his heart: "Is it easy for me? I'm really worried about this god sister. What kind of job is it? I'm talking about it."

After a while, a beautiful Citroen CX20 hatchback sedan drove over. It was the car that Zhang Qian drove.

After the car came over, Cao Zhiqiang opened the rear door first, held an umbrella and let Yu Yuanyuan get in, and then got into the passenger seat himself.

As soon as he got in the car, Zhang Qianjin asked: "President, where are you going?"

Cao Zhiqiang took out a handkerchief to wipe his head and said to Zhang Qian: "Go to the Peking Hotel!"

Zhang Qianjin rolled his eyes and smiled: "No problem! You two sit down! We'll walk right now!"

After speaking, Zhang Qianjin did not immediately put the car into gear and drive. Instead, he first turned on the play button of the cassette car player.

Following Zhang Qianjin's press, Teresa Teng's singing voice immediately flowed out from the car speakers:

I don't know where you come from

Don't know where to go

we met by chance

From this day on

I don’t know who you came for

I don’t know when I will return

We hit it off

Stranger becomes confidant

…

Amidst the melodious singing, Zhang Qianjin smiled and put the car into gear, lightly stepped on the accelerator, and let the car slowly drive out in the crackling drizzle.
