Chapter 58: Far and Near

  In the city of Qingzhou, with a population of over 6 million, countless wonderful dramas are being staged every moment. Whether Mu Zechen is filled with doubts or Yuan Dazhu is careless, Ji Zheng, as a small figure, only stirred up a little ripple in their lives before disappearing. Their attention and energy are all focused on the intense struggle that is about to unfold in the city, whether they are insiders or outsiders, everyone knows that the game of chess in Qingzhou has reached a critical point where the outcome is already clear.

  Zhou Yuanting, after completely breaking with Xu Fuyan, abandoned the municipal party committee and forcibly initiated the bankruptcy liquidation procedure of Qinghua Factory in early August. After being approved by the Municipal Bureau of Industry, Qinghua Factory officially submitted a bankruptcy application to the People's Court of Qingzhou City and held its first creditors' meeting in mid-August. According to plan, the court would have ruled on the bankruptcy of Qinghua Factory in September, and then the municipal government would have designated departments such as finance, supervision, auditing, and taxation to form a bankruptcy liquidation team to lead and carry out the next steps. However, the convening of the Fifth Plenary Session on September 25 completely disrupted the established rhythm, Xu Fuyan took advantage of the east wind of the plenum, made a big fuss, and forcibly stalled Zhou Yuanting's footsteps, causing the matter of Qinghua Factory to temporarily stagnate.

  But contrary to everyone's expectations, after waiting quietly for more than ten days, Zhou Yuanting suddenly launched a surprise attack, using Yang Yihang's official hat to intimidate the Qingzhou government, and once again successfully initiated the plan to bankrupt the Qinghua Factory. On the second day after Ji Zheng's disappearance, the liquidation team officially entered the Qinghua Factory.

  The arrow is on the string, and it will be shot as soon as it is touched!

  The situation was so severe, but Wen Ze came to school early as if nothing had happened. As soon as he sat down, he immediately went to Ren Yi's desk and started rummaging through it.

  Ren Yi angrily said: "Wen brother, breaking into someone's house is called theft. With such behavior, where will you put this host?"

  "Hey brother, can we speak Mandarin?" Wen Jian casually replied, finally finding the chemistry homework book in a corner and letting out a sigh of relief.

  "From now on, call me Yang Xiao Xie, Brother Yang!"

  Wen Cheng was taken aback for a moment, with his unparalleled experience of being reborn twice and dominating the internet, what's "Mò Hóu" (silent monkey), "Chá Láng" (wolf-like cruelty), what's "Xiǎo Shǒu" (small hand) or "Lián Huā" (tender flower)? Those are all familiar terms that roll off the tongue, but he had never heard of a "Yang Xiao Xie".

  "This... Brother Yang, may I ask where this name comes from and what's the story behind it? Also, didn't you say last time that you wanted to quit the entertainment industry, stay away from acting, and focus on being a poet?"

  "Have you read Gu Cheng's poetry?" Ren Yi let out a long sigh, not waiting for Wen Qian to respond, and murmured: "You, one moment looking at me, the next looking at the clouds. I feel that when you look at me, it's very distant; when you look at the clouds, it's very close."

  I've always thought that modern poetry is nothing special, but at this moment, listening to Ren Yi's low voice and looking at his youthful face, I suddenly feel that in this age where we're forced to use new words to express our sorrows, being able to simply like someone can be a very happy thing.

  Unfortunately, he didn't have that kind of sentiment in his past life, and now he doesn't have that state of mind anymore.

  "After reading this poem, I realized that one cannot be too rigid in life. Since you see the cloud as being very close, why not just walk to the other side of the cloud? So I resumed my old profession, and in this world, I am really very close to her!"

  Warm and gentle, the affectionate eyes just now were done for a blind man to see, no longer paying attention to him, opened the notebook and started copying. The third lesson is chemistry class, must make up for the past two days before Siya Jing's inspection.

  "Wen brother, you can't always be like this, copying our homework every day, don't you think you should treat us to a meal?"

  "Shame on you! How dare you say that? Last time I copied your math homework, 13 out of 20 questions were wrong. Brother Yang, are you sure you're using your brain and not your butt to do the problems?"

  A familiar laugh came from behind, and Wen Qing turned around with a warm and helpless smile, saying: "Ji Su classmate, you have great potential to talk about Liaozhai recently." The 95 version of Liaozhai is being broadcast on CCTV, and every day in the classroom, there are ghostly voices rising and falling. Originally, Uncle wanted to say that you've been favoring the back door lately, but he swallowed his words at the last minute. After going through so many things, although psychologically closer to Ji Su, Wen Qing still unconsciously kept a distance from her, looking at her captivating appearance.

  If it were Xu Yao, Uncle Wen would have been tongue-tied countless times already.

  Ji Su didn't say a word, with a clear smile on his face, he put the soy milk bag on the warm desk and then took out his own homework book from his backpack.

  This is the second time since the day before yesterday that Ji Su has openly brought him breakfast, and it's likely to continue. After the initial shock, many people felt a lot of pressure and couldn't understand why a boy who was at the bottom of the class, had an ordinary appearance, and couldn't find any other bright spots except for being good at fighting and talking, could make Ji Su so infatuated?

  In this era, the universally acknowledged principle of pairing among classmates is that grades should be in direct proportion. Ten years later, however, high school beauties' top choices are those who can cover for them, know how to have fun, and are bad enough.

  Having had the experience last time, being surrounded by various strange gazes once again, Wen Jie's face was thick enough to remain calm and composed, taking over the bag, lowering his voice to say: "Actually, you don't have to do this, really..."

  Ji Su smiled slightly, but didn't respond to his words. She pointed to the notebook and said softly, "Hurry up and copy it down, be careful that Teacher Sai checks your work."

  No need to be careful, Wen Liang has a lot of self-awareness, and today Si Ya Jing will definitely not let herself off.

  A boy in the front row turned his head and said seriously, "Ji Su, as a study committee member, it's not right for you to lend your homework to classmates to copy!"

  This skinny boy with beer bottle glasses is called Gao Fan. In the eight years that followed, he became a legendary figure at Qingyi Middle School. Just to get into Tsinghua University, he studied for five whole years in middle school, getting up at 4 am every morning to read in the classroom, and after the lights went out at 9 pm, he would study by candlelight until midnight before climbing down the water pipe to sneak back into his dormitory on the second floor. This process was repeated almost uninterrupted for five years, with him hanging from the rafters and piercing his bones with a awl, but still not as bitter as his struggles. But even so, in a certain year after graduating from Wenzhou University, when he returned to Qingzhou, he heard from former classmates that Gao Fan had finally been admitted to an art academy in Beijing, perhaps there, his Tsinghua dream would be closer.

  Although it is said that a pitiful person must have a hateful place, reborn in this life, facing such a person, Wen Jie still has a lot of sympathy.

  Wen Xie smiled and said: "The Learning Committee is here to help students who are struggling, High Fan, you should understand."

  Gao Fan pushed up his glasses and said: "You don't have to make excuses. If you really cheated, I'll tell the teacher!"

  Ren Yi slammed his hand on the table and angrily said, "How can you talk like that?"

  Wen Qian held onto Ren Yi, ignoring him, and threw his notebook to the side. She began to copy from Ji Su's instead. Gao Fan grunted and turned around, Ji Su wanted to say something but was stopped by Wen Qian's gaze. She knew that people like Gao Fan were not even considered by Wen Qian, so she didn't bother anymore.

  Ji Su left, Ren Yi knocked on the table and said fiercely: "Brother, do you have to be so realistic? You've been copying me for a month now..."

  "Hmm, if you can tell me why the first equation you matched is different from Ji Su's, I'll treat you to dinner!" Wen Qian said with a smile, pointing at the first question on the assignment.

  Ren Yi took a closer look and found that his own hadn't been balanced. He smiled wryly, "Occasionally, occasionally..."

  In the third period chemistry class, Siya Jing was going to check yesterday's homework. As expected, Wen Cheng was the first one she called on. She took his notebook and scanned it briefly, praising him: "Hmm, this time is very good, 100% accuracy, Wen Cheng's progress is quite obvious."

  "Teacher, Wen Qian's homework was copied from Ji Su this morning, I saw it with my own eyes."

  "Yang Xiao Xie" is written by Li Liang, maybe many people haven't read it ^_^, while the legendary eight-year anti-war is a true story, suddenly thought of this person, and don't know how he is now...
