1987 My Era

Chapter 204: Girls Change a Lot When They Grow Up (Please Subscribe!)
When he saw Mai Sui again, Li Heng's eyes were full of surprise.

He discovered that the girl seemed to have completed a gorgeous transformation in just one night. The wheat ears of her senior year were gone, and the wheat ears before that were also gone.

The advantage of her 168cm figure was fully exploited this time. The professional host clothing and demeanor, as well as the light makeup magnified her inner charm, making her look very confident, charming and amorous.

I have to sigh, it's like Su Daji reborn, her whole body exudes charm, and every move is captivating!
At a certain moment, when Li Heng looked at her closely, the vice president instinctively had the urge to look up, but fortunately he had seen great beauties before, and he quickly suppressed this primitive physical desire.

No wonder the male students in the management school had such a big reaction at the door!

No wonder those young men said excitedly: If we choose Xiao Wang again, Mai Sui will not be inferior to Liu Yue tonight.

More than just not losing, Li Heng understands that as she grows older, Mai Sui's inner charm will only become more mature, more promising, and more alluring.

He didn't even dare to imagine what the wheat ears would look like when he graduated.

Damn it, she is definitely a growing woman.

Li Heng put away his complicated emotions and said to her with a smile: "Tonight many people are talking about you. Many people will lose sleep because of you. You are so beautiful."

Mai Sui smiled softly: "Thank you."

At this time, the two were at the backstage door. Li Heng quietly looked around and lowered his voice and said, "Have you noticed that all the boys and girls in the management school are looking at you? Are you nervous?"

Mai Sui said: "I was a little nervous, but it's okay."

"It's okay. It's the first time, so it's inevitable to be a little nervous. You'll get used to it and won't be stage fright anymore."

Li Heng said, then asked: "Which one is Zhou Shihe?"

The wheat ears stared into his eyes meaningfully.

Li Heng waved his hand, "Don't get me wrong, those boys at the door are going crazy for her, I'm just curious."

Mai Sui seemed to have heard about the discussion and argument of the boys, and said with a half-smile, "She is putting on makeup backstage, how about I take you over to have a look?"

"Oh, forget it. I can see it from the audience later." It would have a bad influence to go backstage to see a woman for no reason, so Li Heng refused decisively.

Besides, it’s not like he hasn’t seen beautiful women before. Can any of them be prettier than Song Yu?

Mai Sui joked, "You statistics majors are in the back row, a little far away, so you may not be able to see clearly."

Li Heng raised his eyelids and sighed, "Hey, Comrade Mai Sui has lost his conscience today. Okay, you go get ready. I'm going to the class area. Come on!"

"Okay." She responded.

Before leaving, Li Heng turned around and said, "By the way, the butterfly-shaped earrings are very beautiful and suit you very well."

"Ah."

Mai Sui unconsciously touched her earring with her right hand. After watching him leave, she turned backstage to make final preparations for her next performance.

Just when Li Hengrao found the classroom area and was about to sit down, someone suddenly called him from behind.

"Li Heng, Li Heng!"

Turning around, he found that it was the instructor Liu Jia who was shouting.

Li Heng greeted: "Teacher."

The instructor waved to him, "Come out."

Li Heng didn't think much about it and followed him out of the party.

When Li Heng arrived at the counselor's office, he unexpectedly met Yu Shuheng, who said to him, "Someone is looking for you."

"Who?" Li Heng asked subconsciously.

Yu Shuheng said: "The other party called himself Chen Xiaomi."

Hearing this, Li Heng's mind instantly thought of the courtyard house, his parents and his second sister who had gone to Beijing. Without delay, he got on his bicycle and followed Teacher Yu back to Lushan Village.

Yu Shuheng also rides a bicycle, but not a Forever brand, but a Phoenix.

After entering the room, Teacher Yu first raised his right wrist to glance at his watch, then pointed to the landline phone on the coffee table, "In 10 minutes, Beijing will call again."

"Thank you, teacher."

Li Heng thanked him politely, then sat down obediently at the coffee table.

He had noticed long ago that this teacher didn't like outsiders coming to her house very much, as if the arrival of outsiders invaded her space and made her feel uncomfortable.

So, after pouring him a cup of hot tea, Yu Shuheng went to the second floor and left the entire first floor to him.

The timing was precise. Just after 10 minutes, the phone on the coffee table rang.

"Jingle Bell!"

The phone rang once, and Li Heng didn't care about the etiquette of answering the phone and directly picked up the receiver: "Hello, how are you?"

"Li Heng?" It was indeed Chen Xiaomi's voice on the other end of the phone.

Li Heng replied: "It's me, aunt."

Due to past dirty tricks, Chen Xiaomi didn't get too warm with him, but went straight to the point on the phone: "According to your requirements, Siheyuan has found a suitable one, located on Gulou Street, Dongcheng District. You can see the Bell and Drum Tower from the terrace. The area is more than 350 square meters, and the property rights are clear. What do you think?"

When Li Heng heard that he could go up to the terrace to view the Bell and Drum Tower, his eyes lit up. This is a great place. "How is the house?"

Chen Xiaomi said: "I asked someone to inspect the house. The overall condition is good, but there is a place in the backyard that needs to be repaired, which has little impact."

Siheyuans are old buildings, so it is normal for some parts to need repairs. He can accept this and then asks the key question: "How much does it cost?"

Chen Xiaomi said: "The other party wants to settle abroad and is in a hurry to sell the house. He asked for 5 yuan, but I have lowered it to 3 yuan through my connections. What do you think?"

This price was within Li Heng's expectations, so he immediately said, "Okay, I'll transfer the money tomorrow."

Unexpectedly, Chen Xiaomi said, "Don't worry about the money. I'll pay for it for you first. Just give it to me when you come to Beijing to visit Zijin."

Then she said, "Your second sister is chatting with Zijin outside right now. Do you want them to answer the phone?"

Li Heng didn't hesitate: "Okay."

After a while, the phone fell into Li Lan's hands.

The second sister spoke with a bang: "Chen Zijin is much healthier than last year, and you have contributed a lot."

Li Heng's face twitched: "I want to talk to you about serious matters, don't talk to me about nonsense."

"What I'm talking about now is serious business. You are no simple woman. In just two days, you have already made my parents almost lose their way. I'm afraid that if this goes on, Song Yu and Xiao Han will all have to stand aside." Li Lan said jokingly.

Li Heng never doubted Zijin's eloquence and ability to handle affairs, but Comrade Li Jianguo and Comrade Tian Run'e were not so easy to fool. "Have you seen the courtyard?"

Li Lan said: "Chen Xiaomi specially asked us to go and see it today. The location is good and the house is not bad. My parents said it's just a little expensive."

"You can see the Bell and Drum Tower while dining. It must be expensive for a reason. Should I trouble them to take it down?" Li Heng said.

Li Lan supported: "Let's take it. Dad's illness needs some time to treat. We have to stay in Beijing for a short time. It's really good to have a place to stay. It will make us feel more at ease."

Li Heng asked with concern: "What did the doctor say about Dad's health?"

Li Lan immediately repeated the doctor's words in detail, and finally said: "After all, it is the spine, and the disease has been going on for some time. The doctor conservatively estimates that it will take about three months to six months."

"It takes that long?" "That's what the doctor said."

Thinking of his previous life, Comrade Li Jianguo, who passed away due to illness at the end of 95, Li Heng was silent, "What about you and mom?"

Li Lan said: "When my father's condition is a little more stable, I will find a job, and then I can accompany them and earn some money at the same time."

Li Heng asked: "You have been in the capital for a long time. How is your work in Shaoshi?"

Li Lan said nonchalantly: "As long as I have a job, I will consider marrying that man. If I lose my job, I will just settle down in Beijing. Anyway, you have a house, so I will live there first and save the rent."

At this point, she asked with narrowed eyes, "You won't charge me rent just because I beat you up when we were kids, right?"

Li Heng laughed and asked, "Where are my parents?"

"Dad is getting acupuncture and mom is accompanying him. It's not far from here. I'll go over later." Li Lan said.

As she said that, she turned her head to look outside the door and said sarcastically, "You should have a talk with Chen Zijin. Even if she wants to cheat on you in the future, you have to coax her now. This is a mission, otherwise my parents will not be comfortable staying in this place in Beijing."

Li Heng: “.”

After a while, he said, "Go and call Zijin for me."

"Wait." Li Lan put the receiver aside, turned and left the room.

A minute later, a smiling voice came from the other end of the phone: "Li Heng."

"Wife, do you miss me?" Hearing her voice, Li Heng was happy from the bottom of his heart.

The word "daughter-in-law" made Chen Zijin, who originally had a lot to say, stop in his tracks and said happily after a long while: "I met my uncle and aunt."

"Well, my second sister just told me that she praised you for being so sweet and a good woman. Thank you, Zijin." The name Zijin was not meant to be distant, but to represent his sincere gratitude.

Chen Zijin understood what he meant, and felt recognized. He was very satisfied and said with a smile, "This is what I should do."

The two chatted for a long time, more than 30 minutes, about Comrade Li Jianguo's health and the courtyard, his second sister's job search, her longing for him and her university life.

Until later, Chen Zijin suddenly asked: "Where are you calling from? Is it your teacher's house?"

Li Heng is right.

Chen Zijin checked the time and said considerately, "It's not good to monopolize the phone for too long. Let's stop talking today. Remember to write to me more often. I will miss you very much."

"Yeah, okay." Li Heng was distracted while talking about something just now, and only then realized that the call had indeed taken too long.

"I'm hanging up now. I'm going to take my uncle and aunt to the Forbidden City this weekend. I'll send you a group photo then." Chen Zijin said reluctantly.

"Well, wife, you hang up first." Li Heng still spoke sweetly.

This time the call was really hung up. Hearing the "beep, beep, beep" echo from inside, he put the red receiver back.

Just as he was thinking about whether to say goodbye to Teacher Yu, Yu Shuheng came down from the second floor carrying a thermos bottle. She asked, "Are you done?"

"I'm done. It took a while." Li Heng said embarrassedly.

Knowing what he meant, Yu Shuheng smiled and said, "I don't like phone calls. I usually like to write letters to contact friends. If you want to use the phone in the future, you can come directly. However, I am usually busy during the day and will usually be at home after 5pm."

It is so inconvenient to make phone calls these days. It is a stroke of luck to have such a shortcut. Li Heng was very grateful.

Yu Shuheng asked: "Are you going back to the Management Institute later?"

Li Heng looked at the heavy rain outside and didn't want to go, but since Mai Sui was hosting the show for the first time, he had to go and show his support. "Go, let's go right away."

Hearing this, Yu Shuheng folded up a black umbrella under the eaves outside and handed it over: "This belongs to your instructor, return it to her for me."

"Hey." Li Heng took the umbrella, got on his bicycle and headed straight for the School of Management.

With all the goings and calls, plus three phone calls, more than an hour had passed. When he returned to the welcome party, the performance was already coming to an end.

Seeing him appear, Li Guang pulled him over and said with relish: "Brother Heng, where have you been? It's a pity that I didn't see Zhou Shihe playing the piano!"

Li Heng asked: "How's your playing? Does it sound good?"

"It doesn't matter whether she sounds good or not. She is super good-looking. Very beautiful." Li Guang spitted and his eyes glowed green.

Zhang Bing next to him agreed: "Lao Heng, it's a pity to miss it."

He believed half of what Li Guang said, but he believed all of what Zhang Bing said.

Li Heng blinked and said to Zhang Bing, "Old Zhang, describe it."

Zhang Bing thought for a long time and squeezed out four words from his teeth: "Extremely beautiful. I think other words can't describe that feeling. The piano sounds great."

"Really? How gorgeous is she?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind and Liu Yue walked over.

Li Guang and Zhang Bing were not stupid enough to praise another beautiful woman in front of her, so they kept their mouths shut.

Liu Yue reached out to Li Heng and said, "Li Heng, can I borrow your umbrella?"

Li Heng handed her the blue umbrella in his hand.

Liu Yue tilted her head and stared at the umbrella for a long time, and asked in confusion: "You are a grown man, why are you using a blue umbrella?"

Li Heng said: "It doesn't matter if it's blue or black, as long as it works. Oh, remember to return it to me."

Liu Yue's eyes flashed, and she asked tentatively: "What if it is lost?"

Li Heng said expressionlessly: "If you don't cherish it, then I won't lend it to you. Give it to me."

Hearing this, Liu Yue put the umbrella behind her back, glanced at Mai Sui who was hosting on the stage in front of her, and suddenly leaned over to ask, "Did a woman give you this umbrella?"

Feeling the heat by his ears, Li Heng moved his butt, looked straight ahead, and ignored it.

This was the first time in her life that she was despised by someone. Liu Yue was furious and pouted, "Why would a man be so stingy? I'm just going to the dormitory to get something and will be back soon."

Li Heng glanced at her and continued to listen to Mai Sui's interaction with the contestants.

Following his line of sight, Liu Yue looked at Mai Sui on the stage carefully for the first time. She did not retract her gaze until Mai Sui finished the interaction and retreated behind the scenes. She glanced at Li Heng's profile again and turned around to leave the party.

As soon as she left, Hu Ping on the left couldn't help but ask, "Brother Heng, they are saying that you will perform at the school welcome party tomorrow night. Is it true?"

This is not something shameful, Li Heng nodded.

Hu Ping asked: "Erhu?"

Li Heng replied: "No, it's the ocarina."

Tang Dai Ling was confused: "What the hell is an ocarina? It's the first time I hear one."

Li Heng said with a smile: "If you haven't seen it, it's hard to explain it in a few words. Tomorrow I'll show you the ocarina and you'll know."

Zhou Zhangming's eyes were full of envy. "Being multi-talented is awesome. Tomorrow night when I'm putting on makeup, I can go backstage and see Zhou Shihe up close. Lao Li, stand up for our dormitory and try to say a few words to her."

Li Guoyi added in a whimpering tone, "Important things should be said three times. Don't stutter! Don't stutter! Don't stutter! Li Guang and Lao Hu lost face the first two times. Brother Heng, it's up to you to help us save our face."
