Chapter 180 Becoming a Team Leader
In the early morning, the night was slightly cool.
Inside a hotel in Dongguan City.
During this period, Yang Xiao directly rented three rooms here for a short period of time, one for each of them.
Yang Xiao was lying on the bed at this moment, having just talked on the phone with Luo Yao for half an hour.
On the phone, Luo Yao shared that she and Zhu Yuelin went to the Kuanzhai Alley in Chengdu a few days ago. It was too commercialized and they ate some expensive and unpalatable snacks.
Yang Xiao also told her about what the three of them had seen and heard in Wancheng. After hearing the three of them dancing a strange social shake dance, he became even more curious.
When Yang Xiao mentioned that he had recorded all of this with a camera, Luo Yao on the phone pestered him in a coquettish tone, asking Yang Xiao to send it to her if he had the chance.
The two did not mention a word about the upcoming results.
After hanging up the phone, Yang Xiao saw a missed call from his mother Liu Yuxia.
I thought it was just a question about grades.
So I tried to go back.
Unexpectedly, the phone only rang once and then the person on the other end picked up the phone.
"Son, it's already 12:18. Have the results come out yet?"
"Mom, how can it be that fast? By the time I get a text message, it will probably be in the morning. Let me check the website later. If I find it first, I'll let you know as soon as possible."
Yang Xiao was a little amused and helpless when he heard this. His mother was too anxious.
But he could understand their feelings.
All parents in the world are like this.
The hard work of the previous eighteen years culminated in one fell swoop, and the result is here on this day. How can I not be excited?
"Well, don't check it anymore. Go to bed and we'll talk about it tomorrow! By the way, son, can you adapt to working there?"
Liu Yuxia also knew that there was no rush.
Then the topic changed again, and they were concerned about Yang Xiao's work situation. Yang Jianguo was next to her, listening attentively, and occasionally said:
"You still have to learn how to be lazy when you need to be lazy, and don't be too tired, do you hear me?"
"I know, I can adapt, mom! Don't worry, and the team leader of our factory's assembly line thinks I'm handsome, smart and capable, so he plans to promote me to deputy team leader!"
"Then did you tell him that you were just working during the summer vacation? Don't let them promote you and then you leave, making others embarrassed."
Yang Xiao continued to chat with his mother with a smile: "Oh, I haven't had time to tell you yet, Mom, I have a bright future in this factory. I might as well not go to college and work in the factory for the rest of my life. If I become a factory leader in the future, that wouldn't be bad either."
"Since there is a future for you, then you can work in that factory for the rest of your life! Don't go to college, and don't come back home!"
Toot toot.
The call has been hung up.
Liu Yuxia naturally knew that Yang Xiao was just talking nonsense and was too lazy to talk to him.
The call was on speakerphone just now, so Yang Jianguo could hear it clearly.
"Go to sleep, you will know tomorrow."
"Oh, I can't sleep tonight."
Liu Yuxia sighed, "Hey, what my son just said, can I check it online?"
Yang Jianguo nodded: "Yes, my son also told me before that there is a website query method on the back of the admission ticket."
Hearing this, Liu Yuxia opened the drawer under the TV in the living room and took out the admission ticket that Yang Xiao had left at home.
"Hey, it really is there. Old Yang, come on, let's go downstairs and use the store's computer to check it."
"Row."
"Wait, come back quickly."
"what happened again?"
Yang Jianguo, wearing slippers, had already walked to the door and looked at Liu Yuxia helplessly.
Liu Yuxia winked towards the kitchen and said, "I don't know what time we'll have to check in a while, go and make a bowl of noodles, I'm hungry."
"Dong dong dong."
Yang Xiao, after chatting with his mother, was about to go to sleep when there was another knock on the door.
Helpless, I had to get up and open it.
"Brother Xiao, can you sleep? How can you sleep in this situation today?"
As soon as the door opened, Zhou Hongyu and Li Yuanbao rushed in.
They jumped to Yang Xiao's bed in three or two steps, just like two energetic Teddy bears.
Yang Xiao didn't even have to guess, he knew that it must be these two people knocking on the door.
"Won't you know your results tomorrow when you wake up? Why are you worried?"
Zhou Hongyu spread her hands and said, "I'm not really worried. I just want to know the results as soon as possible."
"Damn it, you two aren't worried, but I am worried to death."
Li Yuanbao had a worried look on his face and couldn't help swearing.
Don't think that he has been having a lot of fun with Zhou Hongyu recently.
He really didn't take it seriously at first, but the closer it got to the day when the results were released, the more anxious he became.
Especially in the past two days, Li Yuanbao has been like a string, very taut and very anxious.
Even when he was chatting with a female netizen last night, he seemed a little absent-minded.
Because his score was hovering around the second-tier line. Although he predicted that he would pass the last few mock exams before the college entrance examination, he was unsure. How could he not be anxious?
"I can't sleep tonight, let's wait until the results come out."
The three of them all lived in a room with a computer.
That broken computer can't play games though.
But it’s not a big problem to go to the website and check the results.
The computer room in this early hotel was 20 to 30 yuan more expensive than the regular room.
Those who have some experience should know this.
The local memory disk of this type of computer usually contains a lot of "learning materials" downloaded in advance.
Well. If you add a video player software with a red icon called Qvod, the learning effect will be better.
"There's no point in thinking about it. We'll know soon enough anyway. You shouldn't have any problems."
Yang Xiao also knew Li Yuanbao's worries, but he had no other choice but to pat him on the shoulder and comfort him:
"Come on, let's go out and have some barbecue. I'll keep you company until the results come out."
"Yes, let's go, let's go. It's useless to worry about Kunba. At most, I can go to a junior college. What did Brother Xiao say on the Internet?"
Zhou Hongyu pulled him, then laughed and joined in the fun, "College students, college souls, college students are all the best!" "Fuck you!"
Li Yuanbao also laughed, and felt a lot more relaxed.
The three of them didn't invite anyone else. In the past, they would invite Wang Juntao, Luo Fuxing and a few others. After getting along for a long time, they had a good relationship and it was more lively when there were more people.
But today is really special.
When it comes to academic qualifications, high school graduation is the upper limit for them, so I decided to go off topic so as not to upset them.
It was almost three in the morning when I came back from having supper outside.
After sitting by the computer for more than an hour, Li Yuanbao refreshed his results countless times, but the website for checking scores still showed timeout.
Zhou Hongyu, who was lying on the sofa, had been dozing off for half an hour.
He rubbed his eyes.
"How about watching a movie to refresh yourself?"
"Didn't I just see it? I know why you went to the bathroom, kid."
"Hey hey hey, it's coming out!"
“Not coming out!”
"What are you talking about? I said the results are out! Come and see!"
Yang Xiao, who had fallen asleep in bed, was suddenly awakened by the sound. He squinted his eyes and went to the computer with Zhou Hongyu.
"Chinese 109, Math 68, English 62, Liberal Arts 227, total score 466. Damn, that's almost 20 points higher than last year. You've got it!" Zhou Hongyu rubbed his head and said.
"Huh, I'm finally relieved. I have to call my mom!"
"Stupid, your mom probably went to bed early, just send her a text message."
"Makes sense."
After saying that, Li Yuanbao picked up his phone and started editing and sending it.
"I still have to post something, both of you remember to like my post."
"Just say it."
"Look, someone else in the class has checked their results, and it's Zhang Ergou, the B."
Li Yuanbao's cell phone kept vibrating. It turned out that someone was speaking in the QQ group.
The first person to speak was Zhang Ergou.
【Zhang Ergou: Classmates, I found out my scores! 】
【Li Yuanbao: Thumbs up emoji*3. I didn't expect that a junior college student would be the most active in checking scores. Ergou, I think this matter has nothing to do with you.】
【Zhang Ergou: It’s none of your business, have you checked? Cursing expression/】
[Li Yuanbao: I checked, 466 points, oh, I didn't do well on the test, a bit low. How about you? Smoking cigar expression/]
After Li Yuanbao replied, Zhang Ergou fell silent and stopped replying.
However, he still wanted to take advantage of the situation and sent a private message to Zhang Ergou.
[Ergou, how many points did you get? Tell me, I won’t laugh at you]
However, the other party still didn't reply, so he sent another tentative message:
[Good brother, you fell asleep so quickly? ]
Zhang Ergou, who was far away in Huicheng, was lying on his bed at home.
Seeing the words "Fell asleep" from Li Yuanbao, he really wanted to fall asleep forever at this moment.
I was thinking about unplugging the battery of my phone and maxing out my defenses in advance.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the phone rang.
If not Li Yuanbao, then who is it?
Damn, what a fast speed!
He answered the phone helplessly: "Why are you calling so late? Are you sick?"
Li Yuanbao's voice came: "Tell me, buddy, how many points do you have?"
Zhang Ergou said indifferently: "233, what's wrong?"
“233? Hahaha.”
"Who's that next to you? What are you laughing at?"
"Oh, Yang Xiao and the others are next to me. He said it's okay. 233 is a good number. It's auspicious. It will make me smile more often in the future."
"I don't care. Damn it, I should have gone out with you guys earlier."
Zhang Ergou didn't care about their teasing at all. Instead, he changed the topic to the issue of playing outside.
He was originally a candidate for direct admission to a junior college and did not have to take the college entrance examination.
This time I took the college entrance examination just for fun.
Getting 233 points is already very good!
To be honest, he was secretly regretting it.
He listened to his parents' advice not to leave any regrets and that taking the college entrance examination would be a perfect end to his high school life.
Otherwise, when you grow up, you will definitely regret it when you think about it.
If others knew about this, they would laugh at him.
Zhang Ergou thought this made sense, so he went to try it out.
But he didn't expect it.
Damn it, when the scores came out, he still became everyone's amusement.
Now, whether I take the exam or not, I'll become a clown. What's the point?
But now that he had finished speaking, he felt relieved again.
I started asking Li Yuanbao all kinds of questions on the phone.
Zhang Ergou has always been a carefree person. Now he no longer worries about how bad his grades are. He thinks they are just a string of insignificant numbers.
What he regretted was that after he finished the exam, he stayed in the Internet cafe for several days in a row, playing games day and night until he became intoxicated.
He missed the opportunity to go on a long journey with Yang Xiao and Li Yuanbao to "roam the world".
Now I heard Li Yuanbao bragging about their deeds in Wancheng.
All that's left in my heart is envy.
