The snow was still flying in the night. I was very careful all the way, and the traffic jams, so I drove for nearly an hour. At that time, after I parked my car in the parking lot, I walked towards the square of the train station, and soon found a burly father in the crowd of people. However, there were obviously more white hair on his head. In fact, he worked in a state-owned enterprise, and had many things to do with his subordinates. I was not very tired. It can be imagined that the increasing number of white hair was related to my mood, which made me full of self-blame. I missed myself Zhaoyang, since I remembered the incident, I have never let him and my mother worry. The only thing they deserved to be proud of is that my academic performance is not bad, and I was a little clever, and I was faster when I learned anything...including smoking and early love!

I came to Ban Daddy, and blamed myself in my heart, but laughed and said, "Baody Ban Daddy, call me in advance next time you come to Suzhou, so I can come to the station to pick you up early, so that you can't wait for so long!"

"Not hindrance."

After a little silent, I said, "Let's find a place to have a meal first."

"The same goes for buying some vegetables and going back to your place to eat. Don't spend money outside."

"I have to make it myself when I go back. Let's have a hot pot outside. I want to have two drinks with you."

Dad Ban finally nodded, and I helped him carry his simple luggage bag to the station not far away. While walking, he was thinking about how he would deal with him asking me about starting a family and starting a career later.

......

Maybe it was because of the snow that my father and I looked for several hot pot restaurants, which were already full. Finally, we found a hot pot restaurant far away from the city center. After ordering the bottom and ingredients, I asked for a bottle of barley wine and poured it into a cup for my father to get rid of the chills on him. He had been outside for a long enough time just now.

After two glasses of wine from my father, the bottom of the pot and the ingredients were finally delivered one after another. The heat generated by the boiling also spread among us. I picked up a piece of mutton for the father and asked him, "Is my mother in good health recently?"

“It’s still like that.”

"Let her play less mahjong. If it's okay, you can take her out for a trip. It's best to go to Sanya this season."

"Let's talk about it when I retire in the future. Is your relationship achievable?"

After a moment of silence, I said, "The company is just starting out now, so there is no time to think about emotional matters... I'd better wait until the company is on track in the future before thinking about it."

Dad Ban frowned and said, "We don't know what you've been busy with over the years... Every time you talk to you about getting married and starting a business, you never take it carefully to think about it."

I drank a glass of wine, and then habitually remained silent on this topic that I didn’t want to communicate with. Fortunately, Daddy Ban was not his mother, and he didn’t say anything after just sighing, but he didn’t interact with me during the drinking, and poured himself on his own.

I didn't want to see him disappointed, so I said, "Dad Ban, just be 120 people with me. As long as I find a girl who is in love, getting married and having children will not be a quick matter... Actually, to be honest, I really hope you can talk to me about work."

Dad Ban put down his wine glass and looked at me and said, "It is an eternal truth for men to get married first and then start a career. You are also at the age of getting married."

Seeing that he cared about my marriage so much, I finally asked tentatively: "Dad Ban, do you think I and...uh, is it possible for me and Micai to me? Or, if we are together again one day, can you and my mother accept it?"

Dad Ban pondered for a moment and said, "I have no opinion on the girl Xiaomi, but her mother's side..." Dad Ban didn't continue and then said, "By the way, Xiao Yun got married on New Year's Day this year, and his partner was a civil servant... This incident made your mother very upset. I feel that you didn't cherish Xiao Yun's child well. I'm afraid that the anger I'm holding in my heart. If you still think about your mother, you should quickly find a more pragmatic girl to get the marriage together. Your mother can't stand your repeated troubles!"

When I heard Li Xiaoyun's confirmed marriage news, I remembered the first time I went on a blind date in my life. The person I was on that blind date was her. She was indeed a pragmatic and good girl, but I was an unstable man. Our short-term relationship ended in the interweaving of dullness and restlessness. Now she is happy first, and I have to reflect on myself. But no matter how I reflect on it, I can only say that I have never really fallen in love with her. All I have is a moment of heartbeat. This heartbeat is so pale and powerless on the long road of life. It really cannot support a relationship that will grow old until I grow old. So... Although I am a little lost, I am not regretful. If I can still be lucky enough to meet Li Xiaoyun, I will send my most sincere blessings to her upcoming marriage!

I finally smiled and said to my father, "Marriage is a festive thing, it's pretty good..."

"Where are you going to be so messy?"

"I'll try my best to get married soon and not let you and my mother wait too long... By the way, Daddy Ban, I have an 80,000 yuan deposit here, so you can keep it for me first." As I said that, I took out a passbook from my briefcase and handed it to Daddy Ban.

Dad Ban didn't take the passbook from me. He looked at me and said to me in a nearly begging tone: "Buy a house in Xuzhou to make your mother feel at ease... Seeing that she is so depressed all day long, I feel not feeling like this!"

I lowered my head and said to my father for a long time: "You can take the 80,000 yuan first. I will send you some money from the company. You can help me in the neighborhood near our house and buy a house I like."

Dad Ban nodded and said, "I will take the 80,000 yuan away. Don't pay money from the company. Your mother and I still have some savings on our hands. If the down payment is not enough, we will give it to you... We can't control where you do your business, but if there is a house in Xuzhou, your mother and I feel at ease."

"In the future, I will shift the focus of my career to Xuzhou. If you have time, go back to see you more. It would be better if I can settle in Xuzhou."

"If you really think so, I will feel at ease!"

......

At night, I took Dad Ban to my residence and covered him with a quilt. After he fell asleep, I stood alone on the snow-covered balcony with a sleepy body. Thinking about the various things I have experienced over the past year, I seemed to be standing at the fork in the road of fate several times, and then made choices that were not sure whether they were right or wrong...

I remembered again the woman who once had an engagement with me but now she was going to become someone else's bride... I found that in the late night, my blessings to her were mixed with some unspeakable emotions, but we did miss it because of our choice, and this was a miss with nothing to say!

Put on a coat, I gently took the door of the house. I wanted to walk around the nearby street with snow. In fact, I was somewhat confused about my future life. Not to mention emotional problems, as for Luku, I could not predict what it would develop in the end, but I had a strong premonition that this company that relies too much on external resources lacked its own vitality. This will be the biggest hidden danger in future operations. This hidden danger will definitely explode one day, and only God knows whether it can be controlled in the end.

As I walked, I came to a food stall, bought a roasted sweet potato, and a Guandong cooker. Then I used it as my own midnight snack. I ate it while walking. In the blink of an eye, I walked from the alley to a spacious street. I happened to meet Jian Wei and Xiang Chen. They came out of a hotel and seemed to have attended some business cocktail party.

They came towards me, and before I could get close to them, I was affected by two naughty children playing snowballs. The flying snowball hit the Guandong in my hand and cooked it. Not only did it spill all over the floor, but also a lot of soup was spilled on my body. The two naughty children ignored my embarrassment and made a face, and ran away like two rabbits in the snow.

Jian Wei and Xiang Chen came to me, Xiang Chen smiled and said, "It's a coincidence, Zhaoyang, I didn't expect to meet this place!"

"I live nearby and take a walk while it snows."

Xiang Chen handed me a cigarette, as if he was about to chat with me for a while, and then lit it and said, "A customer held a business cocktail party and invited me to attend, so I brought Jian Wei with me."

"Oh." I responded, then lit the cigarette in my hand. At this time, Jian Wei took out a tissue from her handbag and handed it to me, signaling me to wipe the stains on my body.

I was stunned for a moment before taking it from her hand. I couldn't remember to say "thank you" and wipe it. After wiping, I threw the tissue on the snow. However, Jian Wei picked up the discarded tissue and wrapped the Guandong cooked scattered on the ground. She was not afraid of trouble and walked towards a garbage can dozens of meters away.

After a brief silence, Xiang Chen asked me: "Have you had any connection with Fang Yuan recently? We haven't been together for a long time."

"I met him this afternoon, but he is busy with Jomei's Christmas activities recently, so I'm afraid he doesn't have time to attend the party."

Xiang Chen nodded, took a puff of cigarettes, and asked me again: "I heard that Zhuomei's investors are going to withdraw their investment from Zhuomei?"

"This is the case."

"Oh, that's a big blow to Zhuomi!"

While speaking, Jian Wei had already thrown the things into the trash can and said to Xiang Chen: "You have drunk a lot of wine, and it's still late. I'll take you back..."
