Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

Chapter 113 Technical Secondary School

Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye. The time in the bill era seemed to have accelerated, gliding quickly.

"Have you decided which major to choose? Do you want me to help you choose one?"

A 13-year-old boy asked a very beautiful girl in a gangster-like manner.

"Bah, I'm 4 years older than you! You little brat."

"Hey, back then, I don't know who it was, but she kept coveting my meat and begged me to give her some. She looked so pitiful, tsk tsk..."

"You." The girl immediately became anxious when she heard it, rolled up her book, and chased the boy to beat him.

The two people were He Lai and Zhang Xinran two years later.

"What did you choose?"

Zhang Xinran wanted to ask He Lai first.

"For me, of course I chose mechanical manufacturing. My mother works in a steel mill. I have to go and protect her."

He said and raised a fist.

"Then I will choose mechanical manufacturing as well."

Zhang Xinran said immediately.

"Why would a girl like you study mechanics? Stop it, listen to me and study medicine. Medicine has a bright future!"

"I don't, I choose."

……

After some communication, the two finally chose their respective majors.

"Thank you, He Lai. Without you, I, Zhang Xinran, would not be where I am today."

Before saying goodbye, Zhang Xinran said with red eyes.

Going to a technical secondary school was something she had never dared to think about before. When she first entered junior high school, her grades were still in the middle to lower ranks.

It was He Lai who taught me little by little and gave me a lot of food every day.

In the end, only I and He Lai passed the exam in the whole class.

"Okay, okay, we're still in the same school, right? It's not like we won't see each other anymore. You're not going to pretend you don't know me! I have your IOU in my hand."

"Pfft." Zhang Xinran laughed out loud.

"Alright, if you don't admit it, I'll sue you. I'm leaving."

He Lai waved goodbye and left.

Zhang Xinran looked at He Lai's back, and all he could think about was He Lai's words, "If you don't admit it, I'll sue you." After all, He Lai had been saying this for three years.

"I won't admit it. I owe you my whole life."

……

"Xiao Laizi, you're back. Someone gave you a bicycle today. Go and take a look."

When Aunt Zhang saw He Lai coming back, she hurried forward and said something.

"Really? Thank you, Aunt Zhang. I'll go back and take a look."

He Lai knew it was Mr. Xu right away. He didn't expect that he still remembered him after all these years.

"Come here, brother. Someone drove over here and gave you a bicycle. He said it was a graduation present from an old man. Hey, it's right there."

When Yu Shui saw He Lai coming back, he left Chun Er behind and came over. Chun Er also hurried over.

Yu Shui is 11 years old now and still stays at He Lai's house.

"Okay, I understand. Let's go out for a ride. Chun'er, come with us."

He Lai also saw the bicycle and hurried out to try it out. He was now over 160cm tall, so he could barely reach it.

Not long after, three people pushed their bicycles out of the yard.

They came to the road outside the yard to practice riding a bike. He Lai had experience riding a bike in his previous life, and he would occasionally ride his mother's bike, so he quickly mastered the balance and became stable and comfortable.

"Yushui, come on up, I'll take you for a ride." He Lai parked the bicycle next to Yushui and tilted the body so that Yushui could get on easily.

Hearing He Lai's invitation, Yu Shui immediately got on the back seat excitedly. Then, He Lai quickly pedaled and rode happily. Then, He Lai took Chun Er for a ride.

It was almost noon when He Lai and the other two returned.

"Yushui, how about I take you to the steel mill? How about that?"

He Lai thought today was a good day and went to share it with Wu Juan and the others.

Yushui must have happily agreed.

He Lai went to his room and found a torn piece of clothing from his childhood and made a mat for the back seat of his bicycle.

The two of them rode their bikes on the road.

"Stop, who are you looking for?"

Then they saw a guard holding a gun stretched out his hand to stop He Lai and the other man.

He Lai and Yu Shui were both confused. Hadn't they always let them go in the past? What happened today?

Just when He Lai was thinking about whether to ask Sha Zhu to come out and take him in, another guard ran over.

"Rainwater, Xiao Laizi is here. Come in, come in."

He Lai saw that it seemed to be someone who knew him, so he thanked him and went in with Yu Shui.

"Brother Hu, shouldn't you send someone to pick you up?" the young guard asked doubtfully.

The older guard immediately slapped him on the head.

"You silly boy, remember this, don't try to stop them when they come, just let them go."

"Why? Are they the factory director's children?" The young man still had doubts.

"You didn't know it because you just arrived, but the old people all know that little girl. She has been playing in the steel mill since she was a child. She is the younger sister of our factory chef He.

As for that boy, his father used to work in our security department, but later he went to participate in the CX war and hasn't come back yet! His mother is also working in the cafeteria now.

Don't offend him. Although you won't have to starve to death, he is the boss of the kitchen after all. Don't offend him if you can. "

"Oh, so that's how it is. OK, I get it, Brother Hu."

"Okay, continue to stand guard. Slowly you will learn which people we should not stop."

……

He Lai brought Yu Shui all the way to the back kitchen. Now Sha Zhu was lying on a rocking chair with a teacup in his hand, listening to the sound of the chef cooking with his eyes closed.

He Lai took a look and gave Yu Shui a hint with his eyes.

Yu Shui stepped forward and covered Sha Zhu's eyes with both hands, while He Lai grabbed the teacup.

The two of them just watched and laughed at Sha Zhu's reaction.

"Who! Who! Who ate a leopard..." Sha Zhu quickly took away his hand covering his eyes, and when he saw that it was He Lai and Yu Shui, he immediately fell silent. He could only smile awkwardly.

"Brother Zhuzi, you look so relaxed." He Lai teased, taking a sip of tea.

"Bah, so bitter." He Lai quickly returned the teacup to Sha Zhu.

"Xiao Laizi, stop making trouble. Your brother Zhuzi just lay down for a while. If you don't believe me, ask them. Everyone, is that right?"

Sha Zhu quickly explained and raised his voice to ask everyone in the cafeteria.

"yes!……"

A bunch of people in the cafeteria responded and answered with a smile.

He Lai curled his lips and said, "Do you think I'm stupid? Everyone in this cafeteria is yours now."

Wu Juan also saw her son and Yu Shui and hurried over.

"Xiao Laizi, did you pass the exam?" Wu Juan asked anxiously.

"That's right, who is your son? That's a piece of cake, isn't it, my dear mother?"

He Lai threw himself into Wu Juan's arms.

"Dirty, dirty, dirty, oh, my good son."

Wu Juan was delighted to see her son jumping into her arms, but she couldn't hold him, so she could only spread her hands and look at He Lai with a smile.

Then the congratulations from the crowd never stopped.
