1987 My Era

Chapter 534: The King's Revenge
Li Heng, Mai Sui and Yu Shuheng came to the small building No. 27 next door.

At this time, Zhou Shihe, who had been busy all afternoon, had already finished taking a shower and washing clothes, and was leisurely reading "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", one of the four great classics, on the sofa.

Li Heng seemed very surprised and took a closer look at the book in the other person's hand: "Comrade Shihe, you are always quiet, gentle, well-educated and polite. Why are you reading a book about fighting and killing?"

Zhou Shihe smiled knowingly, closed the book and placed it on the coffee table: "I have read all kinds of famous Chinese and foreign works."

Li Heng sat down on the sofa opposite her, picked up the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and flipped through it. He found that there was a transcript from beginning to end, so he asked, "Isn't this the first time you read it?"

Zhou Shihe replied: "The 5th time."

Li Heng became even more curious, "After reading it so many times, have you gained any insights?"

Zhou Shihe said: "There are two sentences that left a deep impression on me."

Li Heng asked casually: "Which two sentences?"

Zhou Shihe glanced at the wheat ears and said gently, "Humble yourself and wait for the right time. Don't fight against fate."

Li Heng also glanced at the wheat ears and fell silent.

He felt that Miss Zhou's words were meant for Mai Sui: When there is no opportunity, waiting is the best opportunity.

Obviously, Zhou Shihe was comforting Mai Sui in another way, telling her that she should cherish time and momentum for the love in her heart.

Li Heng asked: "What's the other sentence?"

Zhou Shihe said quietly: "A hero is one who has great ambitions, good plans, and the ability to contain the universe and swallow up the world."

Hearing this, Yu Shuheng curled the corners of her mouth meaningfully.

The woman's sixth sense told her that Zhou Shihe's second sentence was directed at her.

This is true, and it has two meanings:
The first meaning is that Zhou Shihe is implicitly expressing her attitude to Teacher Yu, while also admonishing the other party: she does not want to get involved in Teacher Yu's feelings, and not to force him too much.

Otherwise, things will easily backfire.

This was a powerful response to Shen Xin's last attempt to scare the enemy.

Last time, Shen Xin talked about Teacher Yu and Li Heng's trip to Aba in a casual way, and also talked about the daughter's wish not to get pregnant. Zhou Shihe was not stupid, so he naturally understood Shen Xin's intention.

But this crossed her red line.

At the same time, Zhou Shihe also expressed dissatisfaction with Teacher Yu's repeated use of "groundless" charges to guard against him.

Just like what she said just now: A true hero should have the ability to judge people, have a broad mind, be able to embrace the universe, and work hard to make progress, instead of being jealous and suspicious of people who are better than themselves.

Zhou Shihe usually appears fragile and delicate in front of others and is very kind to her friends, but at this moment she showed her edge and displayed unparalleled strong self-confidence.

Li Heng has two big bumps on his head.

I really didn't expect that paper man Miss Zhou would be so serious and not vague at all.

The problem is that they didn't mention anyone by name, and their tone was extremely gentle. They mainly asked you to identify yourself with the person you were referring to, and they mainly asked you to guess?

The most important thing is that these two sentences are actually from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which is a classic quote from this famous book. Even if others want to retort, they have no foothold and can only remain reserved and suffer in silence.

This is the wisdom of Fudan University.

The grievance was repaid without bloodshed, and the other party was unable to fight back.

Because fighting back would be unreasonable. It can be said that this is a very clever move.

If the first meaning is a warning and counterattack to Teacher Yu.

The second meaning is just the opposite, releasing goodwill and sending a signal of reconciliation.

Zhou Shihe hopes that Teacher Yu can become a "hero" in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", a "great man", who is generous and tolerant.

She took the initiative to give Teacher Yu and herself a way out.

The reason why she took the initiative was that Yu Shuheng had taught her College English and was her real teacher.

Therefore, as a student and a neighbor who sees each other every day, Zhou Shihe is willing to give in. She doesn't want Sui Sui and Li Heng to always be caught in the middle.

Of course, this was her first attempt to ease the tension, and it was also her last concession. There would be no chance of it happening again.

The whole process was polite and well-mannered, expressing dissatisfaction while also showing goodwill. She gave the choice to the elder, Teacher Yu, whether to listen or not, to accept or not.

Well, in the minds of this generation, teachers are generally classified as elders.

Mai Sui also realized the meaning later. She grabbed her best friend's hand with her right hand without leaving any trace, and was nervously worried about Shi He.

Zhou Shihe smiled faintly at Sui Sui and sat there very dignifiedly, as still as a mountain.

Fearing that the two girls would be on edge, and also worried that Teacher Yu would be arrogant and stubborn, Li Heng smiled at Teacher Yu and quickly changed the subject:
"By the way, Shihe. Teacher Yu and I came here mainly to discuss the issue of profit sharing for the pure music album. Do you have any ideas?"

He was asking the other party politely first. If Miss Zhou had a specific idea, she could say it out, and the three of them could sit together and discuss it in peace.

If the other party has no specific opinions, then put Teacher Yu's allocation plan on the table and the three of them can discuss it face to face.

He fully respects the ideas and freedom of his partners and protects the rights and interests of his partners.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Shihe did not hesitate at all and said gently: "I don't want the share..."

Before she could finish, Li Heng waved his hand to interrupt her, "No way! That won't do! After all, this is not a small amount of money, not just a few hundred or a few thousand to play around, but involves tens of millions of profits.

No matter how proud I am, Li Heng, I cannot take it all to myself. Otherwise, how can I have the nerve to work with you in the future? I cannot afford to lose face like this."

Seeing that he was very serious and solemn, Zhou Shihe had to swallow the rest of his words and looked at him quietly.

Yu Shuheng glanced at Li Heng and realized that she should say some things herself, so she immediately said, "Shihe, I have a preliminary distribution plan here, please listen to it. If you have any objections, we can discuss it further."

Zhou Shihe nodded slightly and said okay.

Hearing that the three men were going to talk about money, Mai Sui stood up and tried to avoid them.

But Li Heng stopped her and said with a smile: "Where are you going? We are all family, just sit here."

Mai Sui looked at Teacher Yu and Zhou Shihe, and seeing that both women told her not to leave, she sat back in her original seat obediently.

Next, Yu Shuheng elaborated on the distribution plan that he had discussed with Li Heng in Aba, and finally said to Zhou Shihe, "According to this distribution plan, you and I will each get a profit share of 200 million.

Of course, this is only the amount of money earned after the album was released for one and a half months. There will be more to come later, and the amount may be even greater than this.”

After listening patiently, Zhou Shihe said directly: "It's too much. I don't want so much."

Yu Shuheng and Li Heng looked at each other and persuaded: "It's not a question of how much, but the share you should have taken.

When we were composing and practicing, you, Li Heng, and I all worked together to achieve the current success."

Li Heng echoed, "Yes, Teacher Yu is right, this album is the result of the hard work of the three of us, and no one can be missing.

Comrade Shihe, we are not outsiders. We often eat from the same pot. We may cooperate in the future. Don't be so polite."

Zhou Shihe shook his head. "You can't calculate it that way. Money is only part of it. The huge fame and influence brought by this album is the most valuable wealth. It can't be measured by money. It's my honor that you invited me to work with you."

After saying this, seeing that Li Heng and Teacher Yu were about to open their mouths to persuade him again, Zhou Shihe simply said a number: "Then give me 50.

Teacher, Li Heng, please stop trying to persuade me."

She meant what she said, not just false politeness.

As the only daughter of the Zhou family, she has never worried about money, nor has she thought about earning money at this age. Instead, the fame and fortune brought by the instrumental album is her greatest gain.

Moreover, she felt that Li Heng was the core and soul of the entire album. If he hadn't called her, calling someone else would have had the same effect.

After all, she is a very contented person who thinks of others. She still feels that she has been struck by luck and made a fortune.

Hearing this, Yu Shuheng's eyes flashed with a subtle admiration, and he said warmly: "50 is still too little. How about this, Shi He and I each take 120 million?"

"Ah?" Li Heng was shocked and said quickly: "How can this be possible? I am taking too much advantage..."

Yu Shuheng interrupted him with a smile and said, "Don't shirk it. It's decided."

Some things are not as good as too little. Zhou Shihe, who understood this, agreed: "Okay."

Well, the two enemies were the first to reach an agreement, and then they all looked at him.

Li Heng frowned and said, "I'm taking too much advantage, it's not good..."

Yu Shuheng didn't want to waste any more time arguing over such a small amount of money, so he stood up and walked towards the corridor entrance, saying as he walked, "The future distribution plan will remain the same. Li Heng, please see the teacher off."

Li Heng was speechless and looked at Zhou Shihe.

Zhou Shihe imitated his usual behavior and blinked mischievously, with a gentle smile on his face, as if basking in the spring breeze, and instantly looked beautiful.

At this moment, something strange happened. Li Heng was instantly infected by this smile. All his emotions were calmed down immediately and his heart was inexplicably peaceful.

After looking at Zhou Shihe tacitly for a moment, he turned and walked towards the stairs.

They came to the center of the courtyard of Building 25 one after another. Li Heng looked up at the sky and sighed, "This is a bit beyond my expectations."

Yu Shuheng felt the same way and said, "It makes me look small-minded. She is the one who loves music the most and is the purest. She has great ambitions and is not limited to the small profits in front of her."

After saying that, she turned her head, stared at his eyes with a smile, and said teasingly: "Zhou Shihe is really amazing. She is so good at giving red dates after hitting someone with a stick. The teacher can only suffer in silence. Little boy, it is better to marry her than Song Yu. With a wife like her at home, everything will be in order, and you will have no worries outside."

Li Heng: “….”

He didn't know whether the teacher was trying to sow discord between Song Yu and Zhou Shihe, or was simply mocking his own philandering.

In response, he shamelessly chose to ignore it.

As soon as he entered the room, Yu Shuheng stopped moving and turned her back to him.

Looking at the tall and graceful figure in front of him, Li Heng laughed, and knowingly hugged her from behind, whispering in her ear: "No wonder you wanted me to send you off, it turns out you were mad."

Yu Shuheng leaned her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes lazily: "In your eyes, is the teacher so petty?"

Li Heng kissed her earlobe, "So what are you doing...?"

Yu Shuheng put her right hand back to his cheek, stroking it gently, and said softly after a long while: "For you, I have been changing myself."

She is indeed constantly adjusting and changing herself.

Back then, in order to get a complete relationship and a complete him, she even sent people to investigate Da Qingyi. But halfway through the investigation, she suddenly withdrew Liu Bei. As a woman, as a woman of the Yu family with extremely good conditions, it is not wrong to want to pursue a complete love.

It is even human nature and an instinctive reaction.

But later, fearing that she would displease him, she came to her senses and immediately revoked Liu Bei's decision and gave up the investigation into Huang Zhaoyi.

Even though she later knew that Li Heng and Da Qingyi had had an affair, she endured it silently, because the thing had already happened and she didn't want to bring up the past and embarrass everyone.

Being decent is the best.

In fact, an ordinary woman might not be able to do so many concessions, compromises and tolerances. As the eldest daughter of the Yu family, who has extremely superior conditions, it is not easy for her to achieve this.

If she hadn't really been tempted by worldly desires, she wouldn't have put aside her pride and wouldn't have been so accommodating.

Feeling him hugging her tighter and tighter, feeling the changes in his body, Yu Shuheng smiled elegantly and said kindly, "Man, that's enough. Go and help me call Mai Sui down. The teacher will take her to a place."

Li Heng asked curiously: "Where are you going so late?"

Yu Shuheng said: "Don't ask about women's affairs."

Li Heng asked: "Are you coming back tonight?"

Yu Shuheng tilted her head and asked with a meaningful smile, "What's the matter? Are you afraid that I will kidnap her and no one will sleep with you tonight?"

That's what he meant, but Li Heng couldn't admit it. "No, I just care about you."

After staring at him intently for a while, Yu Shuheng took back her hand from his face, stood up and walked out of his arms, brushed her black hair back with her right hand and said, "Go, it's not too early."

"Okay." Li Heng responded and turned to leave.

"Wait." She called to him.

Li Heng turned around: "What's wrong?"

Yu Shuheng looked somewhere, stretched and said, "Go to the yard and calm down before going up, don't scare them."

Li Heng: “….”

Teacher Yu, are you still the cold Teacher Yu that I first met?
How can you praise yourself like this?

After enjoying some cool air in the yard and waiting until his body recovered, Li Heng went back into Building 27.

Go up to the second floor.

He reminded Mai Sui: "Teacher Yu is waiting for you."

"it is good."

Mai Sui stood up and said to her bestie, "Shi He, the teacher and I are going out for a while and will be back soon."

Zhou Shihe hummed lightly.

Standing in the attic and watching Teacher Yu and Mai Sui leave, Li Heng returned to the living room, sat down leisurely on the sofa, and sighed several times.

Seeing this, Zhou Shihe, who was reading a book, looked at him strangely, then stood up and poured two cups of hot tea and placed one in front of him.

Li Heng took the tea and sighed, "Classmate Shihe, why do you think there are such fools in this world who don't know how to use their money?"

Zhou Shihe pouted her clever little mouth, held the teacup in both hands and turned it around in her palms, and said quietly: "You will have to support three women in the future, wouldn't it be better to have more money?"

Li Heng was speechless and was rendered speechless by the rebuke.

Kill him with just one sentence!

The kind that cannot resist.

He couldn't openly admit that he had evil intentions now, even if he did have such thoughts. But he couldn't say it out loud, because it would change the tone.

Li Heng pretended to cough dryly, then talked about something serious and asked, "Are you free in February next year?"

Zhou Shihe looked over.

Li Heng asked again: "You should be familiar with the Royal Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra, right?"

Zhou Shihe nodded.

Li Heng explained: "Some time ago, this band contacted Ms. Yu through her overseas friends and wanted to invite the three of us to perform live in the Netherlands in February. She asked me to ask you."

Zhou Shihe asked: "Which piece should we play?"

Li Heng said: "With Orchids and The Original Scenery of Hometown."

Zhou Shihe hesitated and asked, "Can you confirm the specific date?"

Li Heng said: "February 2st next year."

Hearing this, Zhou Shihe put down the teacup in his hand, picked up the calendar on the table and flipped through it. When he turned to February of next year, he said, "Okay."

Li Heng was puzzled: "You are not free in February next year?"

Zhou Shihe replied, "No. My teacher also has a concert in February and wants to invite us to attend. Fortunately, the time does not conflict. Her concert is on February 2."

Then she said, "Please ask Teacher Yu for me."

Li Heng said briskly: "Don't worry, Teacher Yu will agree."

Then he came to his senses and asked in self-pity, "Hey, why don't you ask me?"

Zhou Shihe smiled and said, "Mr. Li, are you free on February 2 next year?"

Li Heng took a sip of tea and said seriously, "Yes, Miss Zhou."

Zhou Shihe suddenly remembered something, and after a moment's silence, he said, "I'm planning to install a landline phone recently. Do you want to join me?"

Ask him if he wants to install a telephone in Building 26?
The reason she asked was because she felt that Li Heng was an extraordinary person. He was not only a writer and musician, but also owned two companies, Anta Shoes and New Future Tutorial School. He must be very busy and needed a landline phone.

But Li Heng refused: "No. I'm about to write a new book. If the living room phone keeps ringing, it will affect my writing state."

What kind of joke is this? He is not stupid. If he has a landline phone at home, isn't that a curse for himself?
Isn't it like putting a tight hoop on the wheat ears?
What if Zijin called and Mai Sui, who was unaware of the situation, answered the call?
Zijin was fine, but what if it was Songyu who called? Friendship can break down at any time, and Mai Sui might be stimulated to move out of Building 26.

That would be a huge loss, so he was unwilling to do such a stupid thing.

Besides, I have a landline phone at home, and if my scheming wife calls to check on me, I can't always lie to her, because that would limit my freedom.

In addition, Teacher Yu also visits Building No. 26 from time to time, which is also a risk.

Seeing that he refused so straightforwardly, Zhou Shihe looked at him strangely again, as if he had guessed what was in his mind.

But she only thought of Xiao Han.

Thinking of the scene where he and Mai Sui were kissing and being interrupted by Xiao Han’s phone call…
Thinking of this, Zhou Shihe did not mention the installation of the phone again. After finishing half a cup of tea, she raised her right wrist to check the time and said, "Do you still need me for something?"

Hearing this, Li Heng reacted strongly. His crossed legs immediately bounced up like a spring, and he asked in disbelief with eyes wide open: "No? Are you trying to get me to leave?"

Zhou Shihe used her white fingertips to gently stroke the hair by her ears, lowered her head and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm a little inconvenient."

inconvenient?
Li Heng immediately thought of the woman's menstrual period. She was going to the shower room to change clothes? He put the teacup on the tea table and left without looking back.

Hearing the footsteps fade away, Zhou Shihe sat quietly on the sofa without moving.

It was true that she was inconvenienced, but it wasn't that urgent.

Mainly because they were a single man and a single woman, she couldn't stand his gradually changing look.

Zhou Shihe knew that he couldn't be blamed for this. Usually, many boys would secretly look at him, and as they looked at him, they would slowly change and there would be something more in their eyes.

Logically, she was used to that kind of admiring gaze. But this boy was different, he was Li Heng.

He hugged me in the snow in Northeast China and accidentally touched my lips.

He and I once lived in the same room in the capital for 43 days.

He called out his own name three times in his dreams.

In the shower room of Building 26, he almost saw himself naked.

In the piano room, as the sound of the piano spread, he stared at her silently more than once, and he was completely immersed in it without realizing it.

The two sentences he and Wang Ye said were still fresh in her mind, as if they happened yesterday. They left a deep impression on her...

He is Su Su's lover, and he is not a loyal person.

Zhou Shihe couldn't help but recall the past. Eventually, he got up and went into the piano room. He turned off the lights and sat in front of the piano. Soon, a melodious melody came out in the dark.

At this moment, Chen Siya in Building 24 was feeding her child. When she heard the touching "Butterfly Lovers", she looked up at Building 27. As a result, the entire building opposite was dark, without a single light.

"Hey, Miss Zhou is actually playing the piano at this time today? Didn't she never practice at night before?" The fake Taoist Fu Yanjie walked out of the house and said to his wife with a look of surprise.

Chen Siya said: "It seems so."

The fake Taoist priest watched from a distance for a while and said, "The lights are not even on, are you firing blindly?"

Chen Siya thought for a while and said, "She is meditating."

The fake Taoist turned around, adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, and said with a grin, "Don't be ridiculous. Can you hear this? Is it so magical?"

Chen Siya glared at him, "Have you forgotten what I do? This poem "Butterfly Lovers" has been practiced many times, and I have listened to it countless times. She is not in good shape today."

But she added: "But now I am playing better and better, I think I have found my feeling again."

Afterwards, the couple did not say anything else and just listened in silence until the song ended. Chen Siya finally broke the silence and asked, "Have you thought clearly about the Hengyuan Investment Company matter?"

"Well, I have to borrow several million from Teacher Yu. I'm afraid you and your mother will suffer in the future."

"If you feel pressured, then take it slow?"

The fake Taoist gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind: "This opportunity is too good to be missed. I will tell the principal tomorrow that I am leaving school."
