Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 82

Dong Qiangqiang sat back to the dining table: "What did we say just now?"

Lei Lanting looked at Tong Lele expectantly: "Tell him what you said just now."

Tong Lele put down the coffee cup: "I have a... classmate. His girlfriend seems to be studying law at Han University. I can ask."

"Okay," Dong Qiangqiang said happily, "it's good for us to ask more." He excitedly swallowed a big mouthful of curry rice mixed with beef, and said repeatedly, "Hey, this beef tendon is really chewy. , if only there were two or two small drinks."

Lei Lanting suddenly remembered something: "Lele, how is your relationship with this classmate? Is it convenient for him to know about us?"

"What do you mean?" Dong Qiangqiang made him feel a little confused.

"This place in Hannover is not big or small. Although some people are warm-hearted, some people who like to help also like to chew their tongues, and some people can talk and some can't listen. I don't want to let this happen. It's news. Of course, I'm not saying that Lele's classmates love to spread small talk, I just ask to see if Lele understands each other. Well, Lele, are you right? " Lei Lanting stared at Tong Lele with a stern expression.

"I knew better before," Tong Lele blushed slightly, paused, and said softly, "I didn't know much after breaking up."

Lei Lanting was unprepared for this answer, his expression was taken aback, and he muttered: "Fin... break up? You have... a boyfriend?" But what Lei Lanting didn't know was that Tong Lele's blushing wasn't because of him.

Tong Lele stood up and nodded at Dong Qiangqiang: "I'll go first if it's nothing. If you have any questions, I'll call you."

Dong Qiangqiang nodded and warned: "Go back and pay attention to safety. Let's call."

Tong Lele's figure disappeared outside the restaurant, Lei Lanting was still sitting on a chair pinching in a daze, without saying a word, as if he had not recovered from the shock just now.

Dong Qiangqiang ate another big mouthful of beef tendon, without even looking at Lei Lanting: "If you really plan to chase people, you must first learn how to manage your emotions. In addition, you have to learn a little bit of flirting, how can you be like that? Talking to the girl like a prisoner, that Thomas spoke softly than you in the afternoon."

Lei Lanting grabbed her hair with her hands in frustration and complained, "Hey, I always thought she was single."

"Who are you? You still need to report to you when you're in a relationship?" Dong Qiangqiang finished a large plate of curry rice like a storm, and wiped his mouth, "And your attitude when you split the money," he said. After exiting, Dong Qiangqiang suddenly realized that he had started preaching, and immediately changed his mouth, "That's too much."

Lei Lanting looked out the window absentmindedly, and said regretfully: "The bonus is gone, and the money for cleaning is probably gone. I really lost my wife and lost my army."

Dong Qiangqiang glanced at him with sympathy in his eyes.

It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon when I got home. Dong Qiangqiang quickly changed out of his dirty clothes, took a hot shower, and sat in the room to light a cigarette for himself.

The weather in Germany is like the face of a child. It changes as you say it. The sun is still shining when you eat, but now the sky is full of dark clouds that look like an overturned ink bottle, and the clouds light up from time to time. Lightning, fine raindrops slanted by the wind, looking at the raindrops splashing on the window, Dong Qiangqiang suddenly became homesick.

He put his hand on the phone button and kept rubbing it, but he didn't press it.It has been more than a week since I came to Germany, but I have not made any progress in my studies. What can I say to my parents?Are you talking about your work?Doesn't that make parents sad and worried?After thinking about it, forget it.

Misty blue smoke enveloped him, and he suddenly remembered that the day before he went abroad was also a rainy day. He was waiting for her at the gate of her university, but what she was waiting for was a letter from her roommate.

The letter was simply written with two lines of graceful words, the first line was: congratulations on getting your visa.The second line is: Let's break up.

Although it was only a few months ago, Dong Qiangqiang couldn't remember his reaction after seeing the letter.He originally planned to share the joy of success with her and propose to her, but the relationship of more than three years ended in that rainy day.

His umbrella fell to the ground, the rain hit his face, and he couldn't even remember whether he was crying or not.

Rain is salty, and so are tears.

The cigarette butt scalded his hand, and he put it out in the ashtray.Gently opening the window, a cool breeze rushed into the room from the outside like a charm, and a small airflow suddenly appeared in the room, just like a balloon suddenly burst with air.

Dong Qiangqiang lay flat on the bed, his eyes fixed on the ceiling.

Later, he learned that she was also preparing to go abroad and started taking TOEFL and GRE remedial classes, targeting the Ivy League schools in the United States.He asked someone to bring her many test books, but she returned them intact.

He called her, but she never answered, nor did she change her phone number.He didn't know where he was wrong, and wanted to ask her to understand in person, but he never saw her again, as if the two never knew each other.

Dong Qiangqiang suddenly saw the Zippo lighter beside his hand. It was a birthday present she gave him just after the two of them.Now people are no longer together, but the love is still there. The moment I see it, the memory seems to be brought out at once by an invisible thread.

Dong Qiangqiang suddenly had a strong urge to call her, but just as he was about to dial the phone, the phone rang first.

It was Lu Wei who called.

"Hey, I'm Lu Wei." The thousand-year-old opening remarks are as plain as boiled water.

"Hello." Dong Qiangqiang sat up and leaned against the wall.

"I started calling you yesterday, but your phone can't get through. Are you alright?" Lu Wei said quickly.

"The phone is out of power." Dong Qiangqiang didn't want to talk about what happened to him in the past two days, so he just covered it up.

"No power?" Lu Wei was a little suspicious of this statement. The voice prompts for no power were generally "The user you dialed is turned off", never "The user you dialed is not in the service area", but she did not tell her question.

"Is something wrong?" Dong Qiangqiang was still thinking about making a phone call in China, his tone was a little impatient.

"That's right, there are a lot of new students like you coming to HNU recently, so tonight there is a welcome meeting among Chinese students, the main purpose is to let everyone get to know each other, and in the future, we can get to know each other in terms of academics and job hunting. Can you come?" Lu Wei's tone was full of anticipation.

Dong Qiangqiang was a little lazy after taking a shower. He planned to look at the materials of the driving school at home and prepare for the class tomorrow. He did not plan to go out again.Thinking of this, he said with an apologetic tone: "I'm not feeling well today, so I won't go there. I'll wait for the next opportunity. Thank you for telling me." He added, "I'm sorry."

"Not feeling well? Do you have a cold?" It could be seen that Lu Wei was very concerned about Dong Qiangqiang.

"Maybe I caught a cold without closing the window last night. I'd better go to bed early today."

"Okay then." Lu Wei said regretfully, "I originally wanted to introduce some classmates who took the preparatory exam last year to you. Since you are sick, let's talk about it when you are healed."

Hearing the words of the preparatory exam, Dong Qiangqiang's eyes lit up, he thought about it, and changed his mind: "What time is the dinner, and where is it?"

"Do you know the student dormitory diagonally opposite the main building of the university?"

"Know the approximate location."

"The welcome meeting is in the multi-functional room of the student dormitory. It starts at 18:30. We will communicate for half an hour, and then have dinner at 19:[-]. Everyone eats and chats."

"Okay, I'll fight for it." Dong Qiangqiang didn't say anything.

Hanging up the phone, I don't know where the previous sadness was taken by the wind.Dong Qiangqiang looked at the table below. It was still early before the dinner party. He opened the book and the simulation volume he bought from the driving school, and he read the book while doing the questions. It was always right for the stupid bird to fly first.

When reading books and newspapers, Dong Qiangqiang found that his German was regressing.It seems that in addition to reading the newspaper, it is necessary to talk to the Germans more.But my daily time is mainly to work and read books. Where can I find someone to speak and practice German?Although the landlady Sasha is very nice, she usually gets up at noon or in the afternoon, and there is really nothing to chat with her.Brother Jiugui holds a bottle of wine every day, and speaks German with a Ukrainian accent. Even if Dong Qiangqiang can practice it, it is estimated that he can speak Ukrainian more smoothly.After thinking about it, the real German in the building is Big Zhuang Max.What should I do to practice speaking German with him?
Dong Qiangqiang was thinking wildly in the room when there were two knocks on the door.He opened the door and saw Sasha standing at the door with a coffee in one hand and a cigarette in the other.

"Good afternoon." Since the last time Sasha made a righteous shot in a nightclub, Dong Qiangqiang has changed his views on Sasha, and his words have become very polite, "Is something wrong?"

"I was approached by the police this morning." Sasha swaggered in with a cigarette in his mouth. Dong Qiangqiang didn't want to let her in, for fear of causing misunderstandings, but it was inconvenient to stop her directly, so he had to dodge halfway and let her in. , "I thought it was the last time, but this time they said you were suspected of burning down a building."

"I didn't burn someone else's building." Dong Qiangqiang quickly denied it seriously, "It was someone else, not me. I am also a victim."

"Is it the people who wanted to catch you and steal things last time?" Sasha narrowed his eyes and took a breath.

"I don't know either." Dong Qiangqiang shook his head, "What did the police ask you?"

"I didn't ask anything special, I just asked about your situation. I said that you are a student, studying here, and living here not long ago, but you are hygienic and love to cook. In short, I complimented you."

"Thank you." Dong Qiangqiang breathed a sigh of relief, "I didn't know it would turn out like this. I was going to clean up. As a result..."

"I see a lot of unfamiliar faces downstairs recently." Sasha said while swaying in front of Dong Qiangqiang, and slowly puffed a cigarette in his face, "Dong, you'd better pay more attention to safety, don't be like Jin."

"JIN?" Dong Qiangqiang was taken aback, "What happened to Jin Yuan? Has he come back?"

"That's not true, that is, he had a situation similar to yours before he moved. I didn't expect it before, and it was only when the police called me this morning that I suddenly remembered."

"Well, what does 'similar situation' mean?" Dong Qiangqiang asked.

"I've seen him with some strange people," Sasha said mysteriously.

"Strange people? What do you mean?"

"He was with some of our customers," Sasha breathed out a smoke ring, "of course not drinking and chatting, but... fighting."

"fight?"
