1987 My Era

Chapter 128, Writing a letter in a show-off manner (Please subscribe!)
Dinner was eaten in complete silence, without candlelight or bright red lights.

There were three dishes on the table: shredded potatoes, stir-fried pork with chili peppers, and river shrimps with leeks. They were simple yet rich.

After serving the dishes, Wang Runwen asked, "Do you want to write tonight?"

Li Heng shook his head: "No, I've been busy for so long, I need to relax, read a book, and change my mind."

Hearing this, Wang Runwen stood up and took a bottle of Erguotou. "I'm not used to beer, this wine has more flavor."

As she spoke, she poured half a cup for Li Heng and filled her own cup:

"Drink as much as you can, don't try to be tough."

Li Heng asked curiously: "Teacher, how much can you drink normally?"

Wang Runwen picked up the cup and turned it around: "This cup can hold about 2 taels. Normally, I either don't drink at all, or if I do drink, it's usually one cup. If it's a special situation, I'll drink more."

After a long silence, the two of them started chatting again. Li Heng didn't want to keep the conversation cold, so he asked, "How much is the most you've ever drunk?"

Wang Runwen recalled, saying in a low voice: "About one pound. They had a quarrel about divorce at noon that day. I cooked a meal and drank a bottle of wine. I was drunk and passed out. I didn't wake up until the evening of the next day."

Then she added: "That was my first time drinking."

Li Heng felt a little depressed after hearing this, so he took the initiative to chat with her and said, "The past is like smoke, let it go. Come, thank you for your care over the past three years, I toast you with this glass."

Wang Runwen, who was already feeling a little depressed, became even more depressed after hearing this. She understood that all good things must come to an end, and after this feast, they would all go their separate ways.

She is still in Shao City, studying at No. 1 Middle School.

He is young and energetic, full of knowledge, and the vast sky outside is his stage.

Suddenly, what was supposed to come finally came, and facing separation, the two fell into silence again.

After drinking four gulps of wine in a row, Wang Runwen adjusted his mood and said, "I told Shuheng that if you encounter any trouble in the Shanghai Stock Exchange, you can find her.

Although she is rather aloof, she will still seek help from me if she really encounters any problems."

Li Heng said yes and thanked him.

Wang Runwen asked: "How many days will you stay home this time?"

Li Heng thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say, probably about a week, my schedule is quite tight.

Of course, if something happened at home, I might stay longer.”

Then he asked, "Teacher, what about you? There is still nearly a month left in summer vacation. What are your plans?"

Wang Runwen said: "I'll go back to my hometown. My grandparents are old, so I'll go and spend time with them."

Although she didn't like her parents, she was still grateful to her grandparents, and this was the itinerary she had planned a long time ago.

Hearing this, he didn't ask any more questions, but picked up the glass again and drank with the English teacher until he finished the half glass of wine.

After finishing the drink, he stared at the wine bottle on her right hand side and said, "Don't be reluctant. Give me some more."

"No, this wine is intoxicating. It's your first time drinking it, so you might get a headache later." After explaining, the English teacher said he would not give it to me no matter what and guarded the bottle tightly.

Li Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was so hard to even get a drink. His finally-come-by mood was aborted.

After drinking and eating, Li Heng simply washed up and then sat on the sofa to read a book. He was reading Aunt Zhao's literature. He had a preliminary plan to finish reading these more than 140 books within 4 months.

Don't ask why?
Because he reads a lot, he has developed the habit of reading quickly.

Of course, if he comes across a good book, he will automatically slow down, savor it carefully, and make a note of it. When he has time later, he will go back and read it a second, third, or even more times.

Seeing that he was immersed in the book, the English teacher felt relieved and thought that this must be a talent. She did not stay in the living room, but after cleaning up the dishes, she went straight back to the bedroom.

After curling up on the table for a while, Wang Runwen came to the desk, turned on the desk lamp, found a pen and writing paper, and wrote another letter to her bestie:

Shuheng, happy to see your letter!
This is the 7th letter this summer, and it feels like more than last year. Meeting him always brings new things, so I want to share it with you.

Last night he wrote "Liu Hou Temple", the words are very beautiful, fortunately my friend Li Ran used a camera to record the creation process, I will send you a copy, haha, it can be regarded as shutting you up, so that you don't doubt it next time.
That night, Li Heng read in the living room and did not go back to his room to sleep until two o'clock in the morning.

That night, the English teacher stayed in the bedroom early and did not come out.

That night, Li Heng had another dream.

I still couldn’t see the woman’s face clearly in the dream. The skin on her back was as smooth and white as milk, and the beauty mole on her lower abdomen was still prominently visible.

However, the woman in the dream was much more powerful than the last time. She seemed to be more relaxed. Her skills of grinding the stone were perfected. Her words and lips were full of charm. Li Heng was so drunk that he couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.
Waking up to find nothing made him feel disappointed.

Damn it, who are you?

Have you ever been educated? Do you know the law? If you violate me in my dream, I will violate you too.

Damn it, Li Heng complained to himself looking at the snow-white ceiling, then reluctantly got out of bed and went into the shower room.

As soon as he opened the door, the English teacher next door woke up, turned over and stared in the direction of his bedroom door. After a while, footsteps passed by, and then the sound of water falling came from the bathroom.

Is he taking a shower?

Didn't you take a bath before going to bed? Why take a bath in the middle of the night?

The English teacher suddenly thought of a possibility and couldn't help but smile. But as she smiled, she gradually became silent.

The night passed.

The next day, when Li Heng woke up, the English teacher was gone and there was a note on the table.

The note read: I knew you loved noodles, so I didn’t make breakfast. The teacher had to go back to his hometown for something. The key is on the coffee table. Take it and give it to me next time you come back.

Next time, it will be during winter vacation.

Winter vacation is winter vacation
How stingy! He didn't even say goodbye.

Li Heng thought about this, turned around, picked up the key, looked around the living room, and finally walked out of the room with his bag on his back. He did not go home directly, nor did he go to find Li Ran, Zhao Jing, and Duxinyan right away.

Instead, I took the bus to Shaoxing Teachers College.

It was a pity that the door of the Song family was still closed. After staying for a while, he turned around and came to No. 1 Middle School.

From a distance, I could see four banners hanging at the school gate, congratulating Yang Yingwen, Song Yu, Xiao Feng and Zhao Gang on being admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University.

Yang Yingwen’s banner was the most flashy, with the words “Provincial Top Scorer in Science” written on it stealing the show.

He stopped and watched for a while, and just as he was about to pass through the message room and enter the gate of No. 1 Middle School, he heard a burst of dense footsteps from behind, and then someone patted his right shoulder.

I was tapped on the left shoulder.

Li Heng knew who it was without turning around: "Comrade Sun Manning, it's been a while."

"Hehe, how did you guess it was mine?" Sun Manning asked.

Li Heng said with a smile: "It's not hard to guess. You're the only one I know who dares to be so reckless to me."

Sun Manning asked, "What are you doing here? Looking for Song Yu?"

Li Heng asked anxiously, "Where did she go? Didn't she come back even after the results were announced?"

Sun Manning said: "She came back once, but she stayed for two days and then left to go back to her father's hometown, Dongting Lake."

Li Heng was depressed.

Sun Manning asked: "Have you had breakfast?"

Li Heng shook his head.

Sun Manning said happily, "Come on, I'll treat you."

Crossing the street, Sun Manning came to the beef noodle shop and raised her hand and called out, "Boss, two bowls of beef noodles, with fried eggs and spicy sauce!"

The boss asked, "Manning, didn't you just have breakfast?"

Sun Manning blinked and said, "I'm not full yet, have another bowl."

If you have the money but don't make it, you are a fool. Lao Dan's face was full of joy.

While waiting for the meal, Sun Manning asked, "Why are you not in a good mood? Is it because of the college entrance examination? Or because you didn't see Song Yu?"

Li Heng said: "I am thinking about going to Dongting Lake."

"Ah? Chasing love thousands of miles away?" Sun Manning was shocked, then covered her mouth and laughed.

Li Heng glanced at her, "Why do I feel like I didn't do well in the exam, and you seem to be gloating over my misfortune? Is it because you have a partner that makes you happy?"

"No way!" Sun Manning covered her mouth hard to hold back her laughter.

Li Heng asked: "Have you seen the wheat ears?"

Sun Manning replied: "Yes, I went to play with her yesterday."

Li Heng asked: "How is she?"

Sun Manning said: "She was not in a good mood at first, staying at home and not going out, and even thought about repeating a year, but now she has slowly adjusted."

Li Heng said with a smile: "If she gets confused again someday, just use my example to comfort her. She was two points short, and I was one point short. We are both in this world."

Sun Manning said embarrassedly: "I have used you to comfort me before, please don't be offended, but the effect is not bad. It would be great if the three of us were in the same school in the future. I can call you two to have dinner whenever I have something to do."

Li Heng teased her, "Aren't you afraid that I won't be admitted to Fudan University?"

Sun Manning put her hands on her hips and said, "I talked to my English teacher on the phone. You and Mai Sui are both fine."

At this time, the beef noodles came up, and Sun Manning asked: "I can't finish it. Before I start eating, will you eat half of it?"

Li Heng didn't hesitate. It was just half a bowl of noodles, and it wouldn't take much effort.

After eating the beef noodles, Sun Manning rushed to pay the bill, and then asked him: "You have so many bags, did you just come back from outside? Are you going home?"

"Ah."

"when are we leaving?"

"Go catch the 11 o'clock bus."

"Wow, so soon? I wanted to call you and Mai Sui, and the three of us can go hiking." No one played with her the whole summer vacation. Sun Manning, who had been lonely for a long time, tried her best to make friends.

"No, go find Mai Sui. I have medicine in my bag and I need to hurry back."

"For your father?"

"Correct."

"Then I won't try to persuade you to stay. The bus is here, get on it quickly. See you at the start of school."

"See you at the beginning of school."

After leaving No. 1 Middle School, Li Heng did not go directly to the bus station. He first met up with Quxinyan, and then went to Zhao Jing's house opposite the Education Bureau.

As soon as they met, Li Ran secretly said to Li Heng: "See, my mom has been getting dressed up all morning to meet your dad."

Li Heng glanced at Zhao Jing who was fixing her hair in front of the mirror and felt a little amused.
