Tomorrow can be expected

After many years, Jiang Chen still felt happy when he heard the "first time" again.

"You are the friend Xiao Ting brought home for the first time."

This first time was enough for her to keep it deep in her heart for a long time.

……

……

"I'm here today to give Xiao Ting a birthday present."

Father Jian explained with gentle brows and eyes.

This was the only thing my daughter asked him for help before going abroad.

A father will naturally do his best to satisfy a daughter's wish.

However, Father Jian's words surprised Jiang Chen.

Overjoyed, Jiang Chen originally thought that there would be no more presents this year.

In fact, she was already mentally prepared that she would not be able to receive the birthday gift from Jane Ting.

After all, Jane Ting is now in London, England.

Jiang Chen knew that Jane Ting must have overcome depression to get permission from her family to go to England.

What does recovery mean?

Maybe Jane will care about the fact that she likes her?

……

……

"This is a birthday present prepared by Xiao Ting for you. I dropped by to help bring it here today. Uncle still has work, why don't you just leave?"

Jiang Chen hurriedly got up, looking serious,

"Oh, good uncle, you go slowly, you are busy."

Speaking out, I already feel that what I said is really a philistine.

Jiang Chen was suddenly inexplicably afraid, which would leave a bad impression on the other party.

……

……

Watching Jian's father's back disappearing into the distance with trepidation, Jiang Chen came to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream.

If the gift in her hand hadn't been reminding her that it was real, she might have suspected that she had hysteria.

Actually met Jane Ting's father?

Moreover, he came here specially to give himself a birthday present?

No matter how Jiang Chen thought about it, he found it incredible.

……

……

The excitement was palpable. After running home to release a lot of energy, Jiang Chen finally returned to sit at the desk honestly.

She carefully opened the gift box.

"Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix"

Last year, when he learned that Jane Ting decided to take the postgraduate entrance examination in the UK, Jiang Chen thought that he would not receive manuscripts this year.

……

……

The handwriting of the manuscripts is not what it used to be.

The handwriting of the first four volumes is very neat, but this one is a bit messy.

The handwriting at one-third of the chapters is still neat, but then it starts to become scribbled, and even ink dots and smudges appear.

In the middle chapter, the handwriting returned to normal slightly.

But it became a stroke, not very coherent.

At the end of the entire manuscript, the handwriting is finally restored to its original state.

……

……

A seemingly simple manuscript seems to record Jian Ting's life history in the past period.

Jiang Chen pressed his index finger on the ledger and stopped at the middle chapter.

She looked back and forth over the pages.

Eye sockets gradually blurred.

The heart is gradually moist.

……

……

Sometimes, Jiang Chen would feel as if he had never left Beicheng No. [-] Middle School.

Especially when it feels like life is full.

Since the third year of high school, her life seems to have never left the college entrance examination mode.

Although, the college entrance examination is more than 4 years ago.

But she is still busy with her studies and confined to school.

The content of life is simple and can be described as poor.

Busy with school, or on the way to school.

During the undergraduate period, if she could still become a professional leader with that kind of hard work, then in the postgraduate period, in Hong Kong, she needed to work harder to gain such a little bit of poor self-esteem and not let herself feel inferior to the dust.

……

……

After coming to Hong Kong, what Jiang Chen felt the most was that he had a deeper understanding of the phrase "There are mountains beyond mountains, and there are people beyond people".

Although she knew for a long time that the excellence she had worked so hard to achieve was nothing more than nothing, but when she was really among the top outstanding groups, intuitively and directly facing her own shortcomings, it still gave her a lot of shock.

Fortunately, what Jiang Chen can insist on most is "not to admit defeat".

The so-called "shock" is just to make her practice more hard work and hard work.

Although I don't know where the other shore is, I hope that I will have no regrets in my heart.

……

……

Jane heard that her life as a student in London, England, was not as easy as it was at Peking University.

The teaching and living environment are all in English, so that she now only uses Chinese when communicating with relatives and friends in China.

After a week of class, Jane Ting finally got used to the language environment.

Adapting to the English environment also brought obvious sequelae.

Now, any thought that comes to Jane Ting's mind is in English, and what comes out of her mouth is also in English.

Many times, because of her English, which she couldn't change, she made her relatives and friends in China burst into laughter.

They never imagined that Jane Ting, who is always praised for her rigor and meticulousness, would one day be troubled by the problem of Chinese-English conversion.

……

……

Apart from her major, Jane Ting is also learning French.

During her undergraduate studies, Jane Ting graduated from Peking University with a double major in International Finance and Spanish.

After coming to the UK, she felt the pressure and at the same time inspired her latent spirit of striving.

Therefore, shortly after the start of school, learning French became another task that Jane listened to in her spare time.

……

……

And since graduating from a bachelor's degree, the WeChat 7 crowd has seldom been lively.

Graduate students focus on their studies, and working members focus on work.

According to Qian Siyuan's complaints, sometimes it's not that everyone wants to focus on work, but that newcomers have to bow their heads because of money and influence.

This summary won the approval of Qiao Mujun and Lin Xue.

After all, these two newcomers to society were also tortured a lot by their own jobs.

When those intrigues that once thought only existed in court dramas happened at work, innocent people were inevitably caught up in it.

……

……

"Don't you all realize that tomorrow is Christmas Eve?"

Chen Can felt incredible.

It's okay for a straight man like Qian Siyuan to forget, but the other female compatriots in the group don't remember either.

The most ridiculous thing is that even Jian Ting, Jiang Chen, and Lin Xue, who pay great attention to the sense of ceremony and festival, have forgotten all of them.

"Tomorrow is Christmas Eve?"

Jiang Chen's words were really questions.

Maybe the words were mixed with some emotion like waking up from a dream.

Recalling, when she was eating at noon, she seemed to see a lot of Santa Claus on the glass of the restaurant.

It turns out that Christmas is coming, right?

"Don't you all look at your mobile phone? Don't your mobile phones display the date?"

Chen Can really felt that in this wechat group now, except for herself, there might be some people from ancient times.

"Uh……"

Jiang Chen felt a little embarrassed.

"I now... don't pay much attention to things like calendars."

"Oh, my, god! I'm playing with a group of people? Are you people crazy? Work is crazy, study is crazy. Please, can you combine work and rest?"

Chen Can threw a lot of white-eyed emoji packs in the WeChat group, swiping the screen for a long time.

……

……

"Ahem, we didn't mean to."

Qian Siyuan tried to save face,

"The main thing is to live and forget."

"Cut! I think you haven't been together for a long time. In the past six months, the group is obviously not as lively as it was in college."

"Oh, I mean when I was an undergraduate."

For the past few months, Chen Can has been wanting to complain about this matter.

The WeChat group of the 7-person group became more and more silent.

Sometimes, a member does not speak for many days.

Even Qian Siyuan doesn't talk too much anymore, so how can she live as an only seedling?

"is it?"

After Chen Can said this, Lin Xue suddenly realized that it seemed to be true.

It's been a long time since the group has been lively, and she can't remember when she met everyone last time.

"Wow, what are you talking about? Why is it so lively today!"

Qiao Mujun obviously just saw the message reminder from the WeChat group.

"Why don't we get together?"

Dong Le suggested.

"Tomorrow night! Just tomorrow night! Jiang just came back from Christmas vacation. I'll make an appointment for you. It's at Lao Liu Lao Hot Pot Restaurant near Beiyi!"

It is really dumbfounding that the people in New Zealand are so obsessed with the friendship between domestic friends.

Although it is the time, place and meal items determined by the people of New Zealand, the partners who actually participated in the party did not mean to object.

Everyone also has to pick a place, so it's better to pick a ready-made one to save them brain cells.

……

……

At 7 o'clock on Christmas Eve, Jiang Chen, who was on Christmas vacation, arrived at Lao Liu Lao Hot Pot Restaurant as scheduled.

She didn't like being late, so she arrived 10 minutes earlier.

"This way, please."

The waiter of the hot pot restaurant leads the seat to the door of the private room,

"This private room."

After the waiter opened the private room door, Jiang Chen finally understood why someone was so interested in tonight's dinner.

"Why are you here?"

Chen Can sat facing the door, looking at Jiang Chen with a smirk.

"I think it's right here!"

Chen Can was very proud of the surprise achieved.

It is really rare to have this opportunity to play tricks.

"New Zealand can't get along anymore, so I ran back to China to find excitement?"

Jiang Chen was surprised only for a moment, and soon recovered his composure and made serious complaints.

"Jiang~~~"

Chen Can started acting like a baby again in that disgusting voice, and Jiang Chen felt goosebumps on his hands a lot.

"Don't say that about others, Jiang!"

"Sometimes I really suspect that you didn't go to New Zealand. Can you stop disgusting me as soon as you return to China?"

"I love you and it's too late, how can I disgust you?"

"Pooh."

Jiang Chen rolled his eyes, deeply hurt.

"Are you surprised to see me the moment you opened the door?"

Chen Can raised his eyebrows, he insisted on hearing Jiang Chen's surprise today.

"No! There are only shocks, no surprises! What surprises can I have for your sudden appearance?"

Just when the two were about to start a new round of bickering, the door of the private room was opened again.

Lin Xue and Dong Le took the same taxi to the hot pot restaurant.

"Oh my god, who is this? Where did this handsome old girl come from?"

The person who had just walked into the private room immediately embraced Chen Can.

It's a joy to meet again after a long absence.

……

……

While the girls were screaming and cheering, the door of the private room was opened again.

Noticing the people outside the door, Jiang Chen thought there was something to watch.

The main character is here!

What the hell are these girls screaming about?

After opening the door of the private room, Qian Siyuan was still a little confused, and when he was about to ask his boss for help, he suddenly saw a familiar face.

Chen Can!

why is she here

"Why did you come back?"

He blurted out.

The girls who had finished the fight unanimously asked back in dissatisfaction,

"Why can't you be here?"

The feeling of being questioned by three girls at the same time...

Emmm...Qian Siyuan chose to sit next to the boss, as quiet as a chicken.
