Chapter 8 (2/2)
discharged from the military service.
Of course, someone else secretly told Zhang yang about this.
On the other hand the old man himself was blowing his own trumpet, announcing
his accomplishment, basically saying that if it wasn’t for him in the Vietnam
War, China certainly wouldn’t have won.
At the beginning, he also managed to fool a group of
students to wors.h.i.+p him as a war hero, but gradually as his words started to
monopolize everything, the layer of glorious image that was created in the
student’s heart started to collapse. But the elders still did not have any idea
about it.
“ How am I going to persuade Professor Li’s wife?” seeing
Zhang yang taking a bite from the bread, the old man laid back on the couch and
closed his eyes, feeling pleased.
” I think you should take it slow, no one wants to talk
about love, when they just lost their husband.”
“Hey! I considered that fact too, but… Still….. , I’m not in
a hurry!”
“Then what’s the issue?”
“That fat man from the dining hall, he’s going to Professor
Li’s house almost every day. If I do not act sooner, someone else might beat me
to it.” Said the old man with a depressed expression on his face.
“In that case... Cough … you should immediately go to her
house and tell her that you like her. You should stop fooling around at this
age, time is Money. You’ll be over sixty in no time. Every day is a new
opportunity.”
“I…. pff…. Who doesn’t have much time..?”
“However, if it’s really like that, I will go to her house
after work.” The old man sighed and suddenly spoke in a loud voice and startled
Zhang Yang.
“……..”
Looking at the old man
face, alone, the face of injustice. His wife was dead for more than a month
now, actually he went to the courts.h.i.+p the night before. Zhang Yang did not
have any choice but to pray Buddha to bless and protect uncle w.a.n.g from bad
luck.
“…..”
“Zhang Yang, hurry up!” A rough voice came from outside the
door.
“Ah uncle w.a.n.g, Liu Biao is here, I’ll get going now.”
Hearing Liu Biao’s voice, Zhang Yang hurriedly stood up and
felt as if his savior had arrived.
“Oh ... Okay... Be careful and tell that kid to not walk
around all day and night with a bunch of gangsters.”
“Go on”
The old man became feebly again, and the whole man curled up
in his couch looked so lonely.
“Uncle w.a.n.g, I’ll go now, don’t keep the fan facing towards
your chest. It’s very easy to catch a cold.” Zhang Yang, looking at the old
man, that rugged body curled up in the couch, he suddenly felt halfhearted.
“Go.” The old man seemed sleepy, he waved his hand and then
closed his eyes.
Zhang Yang did not say anything. He just adjusted the fan to
the minimum speed and slowly get out of the guard’s room, and then closed the
door.
“Hurry up, don’t slow down like a b.i.t.c.h.”
At the school’s gate, there stood a tall guy, wearing a suit
with a white s.h.i.+rt, striped tie, thick eyebrows, eyes like that of a leopard,
looked ordinary at the first sight.
A worn out Yamaha 250, entirely covered with grease dirt
stopped by the side.
“You ... What are you doing?”
