Chapter 396: One Goes, One Stays
Ning Yuan watched the two buddies making fun of him, but he didn't make trouble with them anymore.
"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense, sit down, I have something to tell you!"
Seeing Ning Yuan's serious look, Zhong Yuemin and Fatty Fan also knew the seriousness of the situation. They stopped making trouble and sat down obediently.
"Yuemin, did your father tell you to join the army?"
Ning Yuan looked at Zhong Yuemin and asked.
"Hey, I've already talked about this, but I haven't thought about it yet!"
After hearing Ning Yuan's words, Zhong Yuemin waved his hand, looking a little distressed. Then he looked at Ning Yuan and asked back.
"Oh, by the way, buddy, what did your family tell you? What do you think?"
Ning Yuan looked at Zhong Yuemin and Fatty Fan and spoke directly.
"Forget it. I don't plan to join the army. However, my brother will be able to join the C Army as a reserve in two years. I think the commander of that army is one of your grandfather's former subordinates, right?"
Zhong Yuemin nodded, then looked at Xiao Ningwei and said.
"The current commander of the C Army used to be my father's staff officer. When I came back this time, my father also said that he wanted me to join the C Army. I haven't made up my mind yet!"
"Fuck you, Yuemin, stop being so pretentious, okay? Joining the C Army is like going back to your parents' home, right? Why would I even consider you?"
Fatty Fan finally understood that these two brothers were just being pretentious, or as later generations would call it, Versailles.
So I scolded them both without mercy.
"Brother, I don't have this luck. My father is just a director of a department. Alas, now that I'm out of the company, there's no one to take care of me!"
Fatty Fan spoke to Ning Yuan and Zhong Yuemin in a sour tone.
Ning Yuan and Zhong Yuemin looked at each other, and then Ning Yuan spoke to Fatty Fan.
"Come on, you're only 200 pounds. Don't even think about it. Even if it does matter, who the hell would take you in? Would they keep you in a pigpen? Hahahaha!"
Zhong Yuemin and little Ning Wei, who was listening attentively, both burst into laughter.
Fatty Fan pointed at Ning Yuan and was speechless for a long time.
"Alright, Fatty, just follow me obediently. I can't guarantee you anything else, but I can guarantee you a comfortable and prosperous life!"
Ning Yuan slapped Fatty Fan's fingers away and said with a helpless smile.
Fatty Fan was just doing this for fun, so he sat down and continued eating and drinking.
Ning Yuan turned to look at Zhong Yuemin, then thought for a moment and said.
"Yuemin, I think you should join the army to gain some experience!"
Zhong Yuemin looked up at Ning Yuan and asked with some confusion.
"What else can I practice for?"
Ning Yuan waved his hand and said to Zhong Yuemin.
"Brothers, we can't all be lumped together. Yuan Jun and Hai Yang are both in the army. Although we may not be in the same army, as long as we make it in the end, we brothers can all look after each other. Besides, my brother will join the army in two years, can't you help keep an eye on him?"
Zhong Yuemin nodded after listening to this. To be honest, he had originally thought about joining the army, but he was really reluctant to leave Ning Yuan and his buddies including Fatty Fan, so he couldn't make up his mind.
Things are different now. Since Ning Yuan has persuaded him, he can make the decision on this matter.
Zhong Yuemin had just nodded when he felt like laughing.
Unconsciously, Ning Yuan's opinion had already taken on such weight in his heart!
"Okay, buddy, go back and think about it. I'll let you guys know when I've made a decision!"
Zhong Yuemin planned to go back and talk to his father Zhong Shanyue about it. The old man would probably be very happy. After all, his father had been trying to persuade him since yesterday.
But he never gave in, and this was what he wanted.
Ning Yuan looked at Fatty Fan again and asked.
"Fatty, don't pretend with me. Tell me the truth. How did your family arrange things for you?"
Fatty Fan was originally smiling happily at Zhong Yuemin's embarrassment, but Ning Yuan changed the topic and asked him directly.
After hesitating for a moment, Fatty Fan also spoke.
"My dad has transferred to the Statistics Bureau. He even asked me yesterday if I wanted to get a job there. I haven't made up my mind yet!"
Ning Yuan then smiled and nodded, then continued.
"After we left last year, you've heard about what happened in Fortress City, right? Now you know why we were so anxious to get all of us out of Fortress City last year, right?"
After Ning Yuan finished speaking, he picked up a bottle of Arctic Ocean soda in front of him and took a few sips to quench his thirst. He looked at Zhong Yuemin and Fatty Fan and saw them nod. After he knew what was going on, he continued.
"So, my advice is, try not to stay in the city for the next two years. No one knows what will happen next!"
"Fatty, don't be too attached to this place. I promise you, in a few years, we'll definitely come back!"
After listening to Ning Yuan, Fatty Fan nodded heavily and then spoke happily.
"Well, to be honest, I don't even believe what my dad says, but since you said so, I believe it! When I get home, I'll tell my family that we should go back to Fang Village and have fun!"
Ning Yuan then nodded.
"Alright, buddy. We were just talking about your marriage with Meng Qing, and you accidentally changed the subject. Now tell us how you plan to entertain us!"
Seeing that Fatty Fan had finished his story, Zhong Yuemin brought the topic back to the happy event of Ning Yuan's marriage.
Ning Yuan said with a helpless smile.
"How are you two supposed to treat me? Haven't you had enough of what the new immigrant Lao Modong has been eating? I've already told you guys in advance that we're just serving home-cooked meals, no delicacies from land or sea!"
Zhong Yuemin and Fatty Fan refused to do it when they heard this. One of them grabbed Ning Yuan's arm and started to interrogate him.
Even if Ning Yuan was extremely powerful, he would be powerless in the face of two such heavyweight opponents.
"You little bastard, you're just going to watch me, your brother, being treated like this by those two. Hurry and help me!"
Seeing little Ning Wei still laughing, Ning Yuan couldn't help but ask.
Ning Wei is no longer the kid he was two years ago who would do whatever Ning Yuan asked him to do. Now he is a very shrewd kid.
"Hey, brother, you see, Fatty and Zhong are both my elder brothers, I can't do anything about it, otherwise, just bear with it!"
After hearing this, Ning Yuan glared and looked at Xiao Ning Wei.
"Hey, you kid!"
