Line 781. Can I borrow some money?
The next morning.
Central Party School, dormitory.
“Xuebin, Xuebin.” My roommate Han Xinghua called him, "it's time to get up. ”
“Brother Han?” Dong Xuebin opened his eyes in confusion and looked at the watch, "Yo, it's after 8: 00? ”
Han Xinghua laughed: "I'm going to the library in the morning. I don't have class today, so don't worry. ”
“Thanks, Brother Han, if you don't call me, I'll probably have to sleep till noon.” Dong Xuebin immediately turned over and got out of bed, dressed and brushed his teeth. He has been busy proposing marriage for two days. Plus, he snuck out every night and never slept well. Yesterday it was quite late to come back from Xie's house. Dreaming at night was all about getting married again. Dong Xuebin fell asleep in the morning and was sleepy.
Get these done, it's almost 9: 00.
Dong Xuebin was about to follow everyone to the library and suddenly received a call from Xie Huilan.
“In the dorm?” Xie Huilan asked.
“Well, just downstairs. What's wrong? ”
“There's no class today. I took a leave of absence for you. Why don't you go out with Xie? ”
“Hey, what kind of leave do you take? Affect my appraisal, don't graduate. ”
“Oh, it's okay, I know their vice principal, and the principal has a good relationship with my parents, so it's okay to take two days off. ”
“To where? ”
“Talk to you later, doorstep. ”
“Okay, then wait for me. ”
Party campus entrance.
Xie Huilan was laughing at a middle-aged man next to the guard room. The middle-aged man was about fifty years old. Dong Xuebin recognized him at a glance. This was the vice president of the Central Party School, who had spoken on stage in the auditorium during the opening ceremony, as if his name was Wen. Because the president of the party school still has other duties, the center of gravity is not here, so the actual work of the central party school is held by Vice President Wen.
Dong Xuebin came over and both looked at him.
Xie Huilan smiled: “Uncle Wen, let me introduce you. This is my fiancé Dong Xuebin. ”
Dong Xuebin quickly held his hands, “Hello, Principal Wen. ”
“Hello, young man.” Principal Wen laughed, “I've heard of you, Fenzhou Xiao Dong, you are really young, good! ”
Xie Huilan glanced. “We'll be married in a few days. Don't come. ”
Principal Wen joked: "I was afraid you wouldn't give me an invitation. ”
“We can't give you an invitation without giving it to anyone. It's an honor for us to have you here. Oh, I'll go with Bin to do some business and leave you to work. ”
“Go, there must be a lot of things to get married. I'll say hello to your class directors and let them know the next time you take a vacation. ”
“Thank you, Uncle Wen? ”
“Okay, okay, you're the one I grew up watching. What are you doing with Uncle Wen?” Speaking, Vice Principal Wen turned to look at Dong Xuebin and patted him on the shoulder with a smile. "It would be better for Huilan if he got married later. If you dare to bully her, I won't spare you, son. ”
Dong Xuebin smiled. “No. ”
After a few words, Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebin left the party campus and walked to the street.
At first sight, Dong Xuebin asked: “Does Vice Principal Wen have a good relationship with your family? ”
“Normal.” Xie Huilan moaned with a smile: “It's not particularly close. ”
Dong Xuebin said without a word: “How can you say that when you grow up? ”
“Oh, Uncle Wen came to our house a few times when he was a kid, and he talked to my father a few times, saying he didn't fake watching me grow up.” Xie Huilan explains: "It's been two years since your son entered the system? Don't you get it? But there is hardly anyone in the official field with a face in Beijing who doesn't know each other. Some of them are hung up relatives, some are friends of friends. Relationships are complicated. Not a single sentence can be made clear, nor is it a factional word that can be easily distinguished. If you have me, I have you. Forget it, I don't think you can understand that either. By this level, you will naturally know. ”
Dong Xuebin whispered: “Look at you, put your sister's shelf on again, how can I not understand? You really think I'm stupid? ”
“Oh, not smart anyway. ”
“Hey, say it again! ”
“What's wrong? You still want to fight Xie? ”
“Don't think I'm afraid to piss off my buddies. I'll beat you up.” Dong Xuebin was also successful in his mouth. He really didn't dare to bully Huilan.
Xie Huilan laughed: "Well, Xie Xie is happy today. If I don't see it like you, why don't I surrender? Huh...”
Dong Xuebin said, “Do you want to say hello to Fenzhou about the wedding? Our colleagues and friends are still there. Although my aunt said not to invite them, if she didn't even say so, isn't that something? Isn't that inappropriate? ”
Xie Huilan said softly: “I can't even invite you to say it. I'd rather not say it. ”
“But…”
“Besides, the Fenzhou earthquake is still under reconstruction, but we have a big banner here to rejoice in getting married? What do you want people to think? ”
“Well, yeah. ”
“So let's not talk. ”
“Then why are you so anxious to get me out today? ”
Xie Huilan looked at the watch and said: "My parents said they were busy with specific wedding matters, but there were some things that we had to decide for ourselves, such as wedding dresses and wedding photographs. My mother was afraid that the time was too tight, so let's buy the wedding dress first, and then take pictures of the wedding dress. ”
Rumor struck Dong Xuebin's face. “Wedding dress, that's too urgent. ”
“It'll be a wedding in a few days, and you want to buy another dress that day? ”
“I didn't mean that. I mean, don't be so... Or two days? ”
“Just today.” Go ahead, Xie Huilan reached out and took a taxi on the side of the road. He had no choice but to sit directly with Dong Xuebin. Xie Huilan naturally grabbed Dong Xuebin's arm, "Master, please, go to Wang Fujing. ”
The driver responds.
“Too soon.” Dong Xuebin was depressed: “I'm not ready here yet. ”
Xie Huilan smiled, “Are you not ready for the wedding photo or are you not ready for the wedding? If you take a photo, you don't have to prepare. I've already contacted you. There are professional makeup artists and stylists over there. Just wait till you get ready. If you're not ready for marriage, um...” Xie Huilan smiles at him, "doesn't it end? The invitation has not been sent yet, and regrets are still too late. ”
"'Look what you said,' said Dong Xuebin hastily. 'What do I regret? That's not what I meant. ”
“Oh, what do you mean? ”
“Me, me...”
Dong Xuebin Zhiwu hasn't spoken for half a day.
When the taxi was parked outside Wangfujing Walking Street, Xie Huilan saw Dong Xuebin did not move, and paid the bill voluntarily and got off with him.
Xie Huilan walked along the walking street with Dong Xuebin and immediately attracted a lot of attention.
A lot of people frequently look at Xie Huilan's charming face, turning back extremely high.
Dong Xuebin and Huilan rarely held hands and shopped alone. A moment of vanity was also greatly satisfied, but Dong Xuebin's face was bitter when he thought about the sadness.
“Here we are, this is the house.” Xie Huilan stood still.
In front is a three-story Paris wedding dress shop, with several styles of wedding dress on the back of the glass. At first glance, you can see that the price is good, not to mention tens of thousands.
“Go?” Xie Huilan pulled his arm.
Dong Xuebin stood still and finally pulled Huilan aside. He honestly touched out his wallet and handed it to her wretched. "Look for yourself. ”
Xie Huilan wondered, “What are you looking at? ”
“You'll see.” Dong Xuebin is very embarrassed.
Xie Huilan felt his wallet open, looked in two compartments, stunned, found that there were only two dollars up and down in the wallet, one was a paper ticket, and one was a steel pole. Seeing this, Xie Huilan was happy, “You son, sneaky grinding, I thought what was it, huh, how did you get two dollars? Where's Carrie? And Carrie? ”
Dong Xuebin said bitterly: “I bought the ring for both of us. Little 300 million, I told you I won the hundreds of millions of yuan lottery ticket, but the money wasn't enough. Then I borrowed two million from my mother, borrowed half a million from my old leader, and emptied all my bank cards to barely get enough. I, now I don't even have the money to buy cigarettes. Why didn't I go to your house yesterday and buy something for my aunt and uncle? It's not that I don't want to buy it. It's only two bucks in my pocket. I don't have enough apples for a few kilos. ”
Xie Huilan's fingers slightly slighted in his chest, “You son, if you want to be successful, don't buy it if you don't have enough money, how can you borrow money back? ”
“Didn't I see that you liked the pink diamond? Since you liked it, I had to buy it too. ”
Xie Huilan glanced softly and smiled at his hair. “Are you so close to Xie? Hmm?”
“Of course not. Not you. Who am I? ”
“Little guy, that's a sweet mouth. ”
Dong Xuebin said, "Anyway, this is the situation. What, Huilan, can you lend me some money first? ”
Xie Huilan smiled and said: “Marriage is not your problem, now we are two people, what else can I borrow? ”
Dong Xuebinshan laughed: “It's not appropriate to use your money. ”
“Suitable, I say.” Xie Huilan took out his wallet and took out a bank card and handed it to him. "There are hundreds of thousands in it, I forgot how much. This is our common property now. Um, it's probably all the money. I bought the wedding dress later. You checked out, the password is my birthday. ”
“Oops, how embarrassing.” That said, Dong Xuebin still took the card and put it in his wallet, coughing: “Then I'll hold it for you first. It's going to cost a lot of money to get married. We'll have to save some money these days. When I get a chance to make some more money, ”
Xie Huilan crossed his hand, "Let's go, huh. ”
