Chapter 29 Sister Qiu
"What's the matter, Class Monitor Ji? Why did you suddenly think of treating me to a meal?"
After a busy day, Fang Xiang met Ji Pengwei who had been waiting for him in the private room of Hai Ji BBQ.
"Oh, it was thanks to you that I didn't get into trouble last time. I have to thank you very much.
I came back from home yesterday and brought you something."
Ji Pengwei said with a smile.
It's mid-October now.
More than half a month has passed since National Day.
Ji Pengwei rushed to school after missing a day of classes. Although he was a little late, the counselor didn't say anything.
In the class election a few days ago, Ji Pengwei attracted a lot of support with his good popularity and good looks.
Not only did he get the position of class monitor, but he has also been busy joining the student union recently.
After Fang Xiang joined the research group, he attended classes during the day and helped in the research group at night, and he was also very busy.
Today, with the efforts of the whole team, the modified engine prototype was produced.
The assembly was finally completed and ignited successfully, and team leader Cao Tianwei announced that he could leave work early.
I just want to have time to come out.
“What’s the big deal if you treat us to dinner every day for such a small matter?
I’m afraid it won’t be long before I eat you out of money.
What good stuff did you bring? Let me take a look. "
Fang Xiang picked up the lamb skewers on the grill, took a bite, and joked with a smile.
“Come here, here is some good wine I brought from home.
I won’t drink beer today, I’ll drink this.”
Ji Pengwei took out a bottle of white wine from the briefcase under his feet.
Looking at the white porcelain bottle, it is wrapped in bright red packaging.
"Kweichow Moutai? Good fellow, you dare to take this? Didn't your dad beat you to death?"
Fang Xiang snatched the bottle and took a closer look, and it was indeed Moutai.
This packaging is almost the same as that of later generations.
In his previous life, Fang Xiang had almost no interest in liquor and rarely attended social events.
My other hobbies are grilling skewers and drinking beer.
But I’ve never tasted Moutai. Since Ji Pengwei brought it to me today, I might as well try it.
“The last time I went home to return the gun, I was beaten half to death.
Fortunately, I returned early. If I had been late, I would have been beaten half to death."
Ji Pengwei opened the wine and sighed.
Fang Xiang smiled, but he didn't know how to respond to this.
"By the way, how is your research team?"
Ji Pengwei filled their glasses with wine, raised them up, and the two clinked glasses.
"It's over for now, what remains is to test stability, serviceability and fuel consumption.
If there is no problem, the next step is to expand the cylinder and increase the horsepower.
Wow, man, your wine is really strong."
Fang Xiang took a sip of wine while chatting.
As soon as the wine entered my mouth, I instantly felt a burning sensation flowing from my throat to my stomach.
He quickly grabbed a skewer of meat, started chewing it, and drank some wine.
“That’s right, this wine is not easy to make.
I can only get some occasionally at home, so I brought this for you today.
Drink more."
Ji Pengwei lit a cigarette, squinted his eyes, and began to savor the aroma of the sauce.
"This wine is too strong. I'm not used to it. Beer is more to my taste."
Fang Xiang shook his head and rejected Ji Pengwei's kindness.
"What did you say about your job title assessment?"
Ji Pengwei did not urge anyone to drink, but picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"Professor Xu gave me an assessment last time and said that my foundation was okay, but my hands-on ability was too poor, so he asked me to practice hard.
I have been in the research lab recently, and Brother Cao has been with me when I was making prototypes.
The assessment will start in a few days, I will try it then and see what level I can get. "
Fang Xiang had no intention of hiding it from him. They were all classmates in the same dormitory and class. If he really wanted to find out, it wouldn't be difficult.
Moreover, Ji Pengwei is the son of an official, and his future ambitions are definitely not here. It is nothing more than getting closer and chatting.
"You are not interested in the student union? Have you decided to pursue a technical career?"
When Ji Pengwei said this, Fang Xiang immediately understood what he meant.
Is this guy so afraid of me? Is he afraid that I will be on the same track with him?
"I'm not a careerist, so it's fine for me to just quietly do scientific research and strengthen the country's strength."
Fang wanted to give him a straightforward reply to reassure him completely, so that he wouldn't keep asking about his thoughts.
"Well, alright. Since you've already made up your mind, I won't mention it."
Ji Pengwei sighed in a pretentious manner, but he didn't know that Fang Xiang had already noticed the glimmer in his eyes.
"Why, you called me out today just for this?"
Fang Xiang took another sip of wine and his eyebrows instantly frowned.
"Last time you said you wanted a watch, look at this."
Ji Pengwei took out a box from his pocket.
It was a simple white packaging box with the word "Shanghai" written in Mao style on it.
Fang Xiang took it and opened the box. It was indeed a Shanghai brand watch.
The brand new watch lay quietly in the box. Fang Xiang took it out and looked at it.
It says 611 on the back, shockproof.
"Wow, this is a new model? Brand new? It must cost a lot of money."
Just as he was about to unscrew the screw and wind up the spring, the hands of the watch began to tick.
"I bought it at the factory price, less than 50 yuan. If you like it, keep it."
Ji Pengwei tasted Moutai happily, his eyes full of pride.
"Wow, most people don't have this channel. If you go out and buy it, it will cost at least a hundred or eighty yuan, right?"
Fang wanted to pull Ji Pengwei's hand over to check the time, but found that the Omega in his hand was gone.
Instead, he changed it for a Shanghai brand watch of the same model.
"Why did you change your watch?"
Fang Xiang glanced at the time and started adjusting the watch.
"My dad found out and replaced it for me. He said that it was not suitable for me to wear and it was too eye-catching."
Ji Pengwei explained as if nothing had happened.
Fang Xiang turned his head and looked at him, without saying anything else.
How could he know that Ji Pengwei's previous Omega was stolen from home.
Just as the two of them were eating and drinking their fill and were about to leave after paying the bill, a few girls came out of the private room next door.
"Hey, Xiaowei, why are you here too?"
A tall, fair-skinned girl came over and patted Ji Pengwei on the shoulder.
"Wow, isn't this Sister Qiu? Why are you here?"
Ji Pengwei had just collected the change from his boss. When he saw the girl who greeted him, he felt as if he had met his natural enemy.
The whole person immediately shortened by half a head, his neck shrank, and the expression on his face turned into flattery.
"I'm studying here. This is my classmate who lives in the same dormitory with me. His name is Fang Xiang.
Fang Xiang, this is my neighbor from the same courtyard, Sister Qiu, Yin Qingqiu. "
Ji Pengwei quickly pulled Fang Xiang over and introduced the two to each other.
"Hello, Sister Qiu."
The girl in front of me is a rare beauty with an oval face, big eyes and a perky nose.
He is very thin, probably about 1.7 meters tall.
Although he was not as tall as Fang Xiang, Fang Xiang felt a little pressure when he stood in front of him.
She was wearing very ordinary clothes, but she still exuded an elegant and gentle temperament.
In the words of later generations, it looks like a sign of peace and prosperity for the country and the people.
Fang Xiang looked confused, as she looked like a gentle and kind sister next door.
I don’t quite understand why Ji Pengwei seems like a different person.
"Since you are classmates and live in the same dormitory, then please help me keep an eye on this little brother. He has been naughty since he was young.
If you don't beat him for three days, he'll tear off the roof.
I'm at the Yanda University next door, and I'm a sophomore in the medical school. If you have any problems in the future, you can come to me."
Sister Qiu looked Fang Xiang up and down.
His bright big eyes sparkled with a strange light, and he stretched out his hand and shook hands with Fang Xiang.
Sister Qiu's hands are white and slender, as delicate as silk, shiny and white, soft and a little cool.
Fang Xiang felt a little excited.
"Sister Qiu is joking. Although we haven't known each other for a long time, I think Pengwei is a very good person.
We are freshmen in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Shuimu. When Sister Qiu comes over, she can come and hang out with us."
Looking at Sister Qiu's gentle and kind smile, the words she said were not gentle at all.
Fang felt a little confused and could only say a few polite words.
