Rebirth: My 80s

Chapter 1140 Meeting
Crunch! Crunch…

The snow on the ground has not melted yet, and it doesn't look like it will melt in the short term. Perhaps it will be covered by new snow soon and last until the spring.

The winters of this era were much colder than those of later generations. It was not even the twelfth month yet, and the highest temperature in the capital was still struggling below zero degrees.

The sun was quite nice today, and Li Xiaomei, who was wearing a pair of big leather boots and crunching on the snow, exclaimed: "Now I can only rely on the sun to survive when I go out!"

Although she has lived in the capital for several years, this little southern sea fish has not evolved the ability to swim freely under the ice in the northern winter. She wears a sweater under her down jacket and stuffs plush pants into her jeans. She walks unsteadily and has to raise her hands slightly for balance.

Like a penguin.

Li Yunshang, who was walking next to her, was not much better than her.

The adaptability that I had developed in the past was completely lost after I got married and lived in the Special Administrative Region for two years.

This made the two girls very envious of Fugui who was following behind them. He was wearing a military coat with his mouth open, and with his hands in his pockets, he slowed down his pace to match their small steps and walked out to stroll and enjoy the scenery.

"I don't know if the Erguo is cold." Li Yunmeng said.

"No matter how cold it is, it can't compare to the coldness of his heart." Li Yunshang sighed quietly.

Not far ahead.

Li Jiankun, wrapped in a hooded military coat with a fur collar, walked alone out of Niangniangmiao Hutong, crossed the road, and entered Yanyuan along the south gate of Peking University.

"Sister, who does Erguo have a date with?"

"If you ask me, who should I ask?"

"He hasn't left the house since he came back. All the people who should have come to visit him have come, but I haven't seen him contact anyone by phone... Sister, do you think Erguo might have some mental problems?"

Li Yunshang did not answer, which was why they were worried about following her out.

My younger brother was indeed behaving abnormally today. When I asked Fugui, he didn't know what was going on.

Whose appointment are you going to?

Could it be Jiankun, the highly respected mentor at Peking University?
I was speculating all the way, and I didn't know how long it had been, when I suddenly found that the figure in front of me stopped.

"Wow!"

Li Yunmeng trotted forward, looked at the frozen Weiming Lake, beat his chest and stamped his feet, saying that if he had known that Weiming Lake was frozen, he should have brought a pair of skates.

She bought the best brand of ice skates, but she had no good skating partner. She felt that those who always asked her out had bad intentions.

It was a rare occasion that her brothers and sisters were all here today, but unfortunately they didn't bring their skates, so she hesitated whether to go back and get them.

"You are so grown up and still like to play."

Li Yunshang poked her finger on her little head with a pink hat on and pouted towards her brother.

Li Xiaomei then realized that it was important to protect Erguo, so she gave up the idea of ​​skating. But then she saw Erguo standing by the lake, not moving, glancing at the lively scene on the lake. Finally, she couldn't help herself and said, "I'll go on the ice for a bit."

"Don't fall."

"Who are you insulting? They can't even cut me with ice skates. I'm not heavy, I'm just wearing more clothes!"

"..."

Li Yunshang was too lazy to argue with her, so she waved her away. She then came to her brother who was standing still facing the Weiming Lake and asked softly, "Jiankun, what are you looking at?"

“It’s very different.”

"Ok?"

"In the past, in winter, the people who came here to skate were mainly local residents."

Li Yunshang looked out at the lake again and found that there were some neighborhood uncles and children, but they were not the main group. A certain area was very lively, with a group of young men and women skating together, each holding onto the clothes of the person in front of them, dressed fashionably and wearing gold and silver jewelry.

There were mostly couples on the lake, and many men had pagers hanging around their waists.

Somewhere near the lake, there was even a young man who looked like a follower, with a fur coat in one hand and a black mobile phone in the other. His eyes were fixed on a couple skating not far away: a middle-aged man with an unprepossessing appearance, and a young girl with a good figure and appearance.

"Most of the self-employed people have become rich in recent years."

Li Yunshang felt deeply about this. Doing business was much faster than making money by farming.

"This is fine, but it will be a problem if you are too high-profile."

Li Jiankun motioned for her to look back down.

Not far below the lake where they were standing, a group of old men, also wearing skates, gathered together. They seemed to have no interest in skating anymore and were pointing and cursing at the center of the lake which was occupied by young people.

Li Jiankun gestured for her to look around the lake.

Winter vacation has not started yet, and all the students are in Yanyuan. Under the warm sun, many students are gathered in groups of three or five by the Weiming Lake, and many of them are pointing at the center of the lake.

The social mentality is out of balance.

Although the price breakthrough has stopped.

But it will take time for many prices that have gone up to come down.

The same is true for inflation.

In this situation, many people who receive fixed salaries and follow routine jobs feel panicked, and when they see that private business owners and speculators are making a fortune, this panic turns into anger.

A family's emotional imbalance is difficult to resolve...

The next few years will be extremely difficult, and the most serious economic downturn is about to hit.

Li Yunshang was a little surprised. How could she still think about these things?

"Who do you have a date with?" she asked.

"She won't come."

Li Yunshang was shocked: "Then why did you come here?"

"It's not that she doesn't want to come, but she can't come. I have to fulfill my promise."

Li Jiankun paced to the side, found a piece of withered grass and sat down, raised his head to look at the sky, and murmured: "Maybe... she has come."

Li Yunshang: "???"

Li Jiankun sat on the grass blankly, his eyes dull, sometimes looking melancholy, sometimes a smile would appear on his face.

This made Li Yunshang, who had been observing him the whole time, very worried about his mental state, just as my younger sister had said.

In a blink of an eye, the morning passed.

Li Jiankun had no intention of leaving.

Li Yunshang asked Fugui to keep an eye on him. She originally wanted to go home with her younger sister to bring some food, but when she walked on the road, she found that there were many snack stands in Yanyuan, so she bought some buns and steamed buns, paid a deposit, and brought two bowls of wontons.

The four of them had a picnic.

Then another dull afternoon followed.

At dusk, the sun was setting and the temperature began to drop sharply. Li Xiaomei was shaking with cold and could not help but persuade him, "Erguo, let's go back."

Li Jiankun didn't ask her to go back, but she refused to leave.

He looked at the fiery clouds in the western sky and the fiery red round sun setting behind the western hills. He wanted so much to reach out and pick it up, swing it around, and swing it all the way to the end of the year.

He would put everything aside, come to meet her, hug her tightly, and hold her in his heart.

He almost owned the whole world, but he lost her...

Lost her again.

All the internal organs in the chest were spasming.

But Li Jiankun felt no pain, just as he felt no cold.

In ancient times, weddings were also called "hunli" and would be held at dusk when yin and yang alternated.

He gazed at the red glow of the evening and found it more like a funeral.

To commemorate his lover.

Also paying tribute, half of Li Jiankun has died.

"Let's go."

He stood up. After all, there were still some people in this world that he had to cherish.

……

……

Kai Tak Airport.

Ding Zhaoling asked the waiter in the VIP lounge for the fifth time and finally learned that the flight she inquired about would be boarding in a quarter of an hour.

"I've never seen a mother like you!"

Huang Yinzhu rolled her eyes at her.

"You are such a heartless person. Who is Mom doing this for? You shouldn't have come back. You should listen to me. Stay at Li's house during the Spring Festival and stay with him. Don't go anywhere else."

Ding Zhaoling pulled her closer, bit her ear and said, "This is when he is most vulnerable and needs warmth the most. You did a great job in the disaster area before, don't let all your efforts go to waste."

Huang Yinzhu exclaimed, "Mom, why are you so calculating?"

"Can you please be more polite when you speak? You have to plan everything carefully. It's even written in the book that opportunities only favor those who are prepared."

Huang Yinzhu pouted and said, "Okay, don't be like this. Although I am not sad about Shen Hongyi's accident, I am not happy either. She is a respectable person. Few people in the world dare to take that interview route.

"I will carry on loving him with the love she had.

"He will definitely marry me too."

"Oh, so confident? Don't forget Liu Jingyan and Ran Zi!" Ding Zhaoling glanced at her.

Huang Yinzhu raised her head and said, "I am no match for Shen Hongyi, and they are no match for me either."

……

……

"There are so many strange things happening all the time, especially this year."

"What happened?"

"There's someone looking for someone over there."

"What's so strange about looking for someone?"

"Find her herself."

"…What do you mean by looking for him?"

"She seems to have no idea who she is. What's even stranger is that someone actually recognized her..."

As he walked back home along the shore of Weiming Lake, he heard some chattering. Li Jiankun stopped for a moment, looked at the students by the lake, and then walked over quickly:
"Hello, classmates.

"Is what you just said true? Is that person a man or a woman?"

The insider who spread the gossip looked him up and down. Judging from his "hooded messenger" look, he was unwilling to pay attention to him and thought he didn't look like a good person.

Fortunately, at this time, the Li sisters from behind trotted forward.

As for Fugui, he stopped and didn't move. He was a walking light bulb. Li Jiankun didn't like being disturbed at the moment, and he didn't want to be recognized.

Seeing the two gorgeous sisters saying they were together, the student realized that he had misunderstood and replied, "Girls."

Deng!
For some reason, Li Jiankun's heart skipped a beat, and he asked with an expectation that he didn't know where it came from: "I just heard from you that someone recognized her. Who is she?"

"A senior, someone in the literature department is quite excited, and seems to be quite famous in the literature department."

Li Jiankun's eyes widened and his voice trembled: "Where is she?" "Look, over there."

Following the direction of the junior's finger, Li Jiankun saw that there were indeed a lot of people gathered somewhere by the lake.

Swish!
The arrow shot out.

"Er Guo, slow down!"

……

……

Surrounded by the crowd of people, there was a girl wearing a washed-out blue cloth jacket, with a black patch on each elbow and on her right shoulder.

The girl has long flowing hair, an excellent figure and picturesque eyebrows.

No matter how you look at it, the temperament she exudes is incompatible with this outfit.

There was just a hint of confusion on her fair and delicate little face.

Behind her, there were two men who didn't know where to put their hands and feet.

"you know me?"

The girl pulled a girl with a fresh face and asked.

"Of course! Your photo is still hanging on the wall of our morning club. What happened to you?"

The girl lifted her long hair, revealing a blood scab on her left forehead, and smiled: "I was injured in the head and can't remember anything in the past."

She paused and said expectantly, "So, junior sister, who am I?"

The girl from the morning club was surprised and asked, "You lost your memory? Then how did you know to go back to school?"

The girl frowned slightly, her face showing pain: "It took me a long time to remember -"

She dragged out the words and looked through the gap between the people at the frozen lake below:
“Unnamed Lake.

"I asked the village teacher, and he told me that this is a very famous lake in Peking University."

The girl from the morning club had a lot of questions in her mind: "Village?"

"I was unconscious for a while and woke up in a village on the southern border."

"!!!"

The girl from the morning club was shocked: "You can even get this back?"

"I have no idea……"

The pain on the girl's face intensified: "It seems like today, here, at Weiming Lake, there is a very important thing, and a very important person is waiting for me."

"Wow, this is a miracle!" The girl from the Morning Club opened her eyes wide.

The students watching echoed the sentiment.

She doesn’t even know her own name, so how could she remember that someone was waiting for her at Weiming Lake today?
At the same time, everyone was very curious about who was waiting for her and what was going on.

Only the girl from the morning club had a strange look in her eyes.

"So school girl."

The girl asked again: "What's my name?"

"Red!"

A voice suddenly came from the crowd, containing complex and incomprehensible emotions.

A two-meter-tall man separated the crowd into an aisle.

The man who was speaking walked forward slowly. He was wearing a hooded military coat with a fur collar. His body couldn't stop shaking. Every step he took seemed like he was climbing a mountain, or like he was unloading a huge weight from his body.

"Your name is Shen Hongyi."

The girl from the morning club looked at the half-figure under the fur collar hood and said excitedly, "I heard from the seniors that you have a boyfriend, who is also our senior, named... Li Jiankun."

Hey!
There was an uproar.

Right now in this country, anyone who doesn’t know the name Li Jiankun must be living in a place where there is no electricity.

The hood was taken off.

A face was revealed, which looked much thinner than in the newspaper.

"Ah! Ah-"

"Oh my god, Senior Li!"

"It's really Senior Li!"

"Finally I saw a living one!"

...

There was a lot of screaming at the scene.

A large-scale star-chasing scene took shape instantly.

However, the two people who were at the center of everyone's attention only had each other in their eyes at this moment.

When she heard the name Li Jiankun, Shen Hongyi's blocked memory seemed to have been entered with a key.

After seeing this face clearly again, there was a bang in my mind, and the memory broke free and exploded.

Her somewhat cracked lips moved, and she uttered two words in a voice filled with endless joy, fear, satisfaction, and grievance: "Senior..."

Li Jiankun rushed over and hugged her tightly in his arms.

Tears rolled down my cheeks.

At this moment, he became the happiest man in the world.

No words could describe his mood. He wanted to cheer, he wanted to dance, he wanted to shout to the sky.

The depression that had been pent up in my heart for a long time suddenly cleared away.

clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap...

There was thunderous applause, even though many students didn't understand what was going on.

But, it's really exciting.

"It has to be Senior Li!"

"A role model for us!"

"I'm telling you guys who like to cuddle up by the lake in the dark, stop being so sneaky from now on."

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The Li sisters, who also squeezed into the front row, looked at each other.

Their expressions were as if they had seen a ghost.

Others may not know, but the Li family knows how much effort and time it took to find Shen Hongyi.

There was not a shred of evidence that survival was possible.

Even Li Jiankun believed this result.

However, now the living Shen Hongyi was standing in front of them.

Fugui raised his head and cursed, "Damn, why is the wind so strong?"

"Sister Red, you're still alive!"

"Red!"

After the shock, there was ecstasy.

The Li sisters rushed over and hugged Shen Hongyi from both sides, all crying.

Crying with joy.

As the four of them hugged each other, the news of Li Jiankun's appearance spread quickly in Yanyuan.

Countless students flocked to the shore of Weiming Lake.

"I say, everyone, let's retreat first, or we won't be able to leave later!" Fugui looked far away and his scalp felt numb for a moment.

Li Jiankun took off his military coat, wrapped the thinly dressed Shen Hongyi, and was about to protect her and leave.

Shen Hongyi suddenly leaned back and said, "They are my benefactors."

Only then did Li Jiankun notice that there were two people behind her who were obviously not students.

God knows, when the eldest brother of the Hu family and the youngest son of the village chief, Shi Zhalong, heard the name Li Jiankun, it was like a bolt from the blue, and they were stunned.

As people from that place, how could they not have heard of this name?

Never forget it!
I thought Xiaomei might have some background, but I didn't expect it to be so important.

Her partner turned out to be Li Jiankun!!!

Facing the gaze from Li Jiankun, the eldest brother of the Hu family shuddered violently and almost collapsed to the ground.

Shi Zhalong was so excited that his face turned red. Although he didn't dare to look him in the eye, he puffed out his chest. He thought that he was about to become very successful.

"Thank you both very much. Please leave with us first. I will definitely reward you handsomely later!"

The eldest brother of the Hu family couldn't move his feet, so the tall and strong Shi Zhalong pulled him up and said with a smile: "Let's go, brother, what are you afraid of? It won't be your turn if anything happens."

"..."

"Senior Li, please sign an autograph for me!"

"Senior Li, Senior Li, don't go, let's talk!"

"Senior, I'm from the Department of Economics!"

...

The younger students were so enthusiastic that Li Jiankun felt overwhelmed.

But how could he care about anything else now?
"Like this! Like this!"

He shouted loudly: "Before your winter vacation, I will come to Yanyuan to study and communicate with you. Please listen to the school's announcement."

Peking University invites him to give speeches every year, but he has never found the time, which makes him feel a little guilty.

Just settle this matter.

What no one knows is that now no matter what the matter is, Li Jiankun will find it difficult to refuse.

My mood doesn't allow it.

"Oh!"

"Whoa whoa--"

There was cheering in my ears.

After this promise, the few dogs that had been secretly pulling at the corners of Li Jiankun's clothes through the gaps between people finally let go.

A huge crowd of people surrounded Li Jiankun and his party and moved towards the south gate of Peking University.

Looking down from the air, it is spectacular.
