Good Luck Time - Chap 50
　”Jiang Ge,” he said to Jiang Ge, “no matter how serious you are now, Tao Sizhi can’t really like you.”
　　”You are no different to him than his favorite food, his game cards, forum posts, bookstores, and homework. Do you understand?”
　　Jiang Ge did not answer Tao Siyuan’s words. After a few seconds, Tao Siyuan suddenly picked up the mobile phone placed aside, dialed the number, and played the voice.
　　The contact’s name on the screen is younger brother.
　　After two rings, Tao Sizhi picked up the call and said in an angry voice: “Hello.”
　　”The school has lights out,” he added.
　　”What are you doing?” Tao Siyuan asked him.
　　”play games.”
　　”I’m with Jiang Ge now.”
　　Tao Sizhi didn’t ask any questions. He said “Oh” and then suddenly called Jiang Ge: “Jiang Ge.”
　　Jiang Ge said “Yeah” and stopped talking.
　　”Brother,” Tao Siyuan said, “do you like Jiang Ge?”
　　Tao Sizhi didn’t know whether he was distracted, playing games, or just thinking. After a while, he said, “I like it.”
　　His voice was very innocent, and he suddenly told Tao Siyuan: “Jiang Ge also likes me.”
　　Tao Siyuan was stunned for a moment, then said, “Then do you like my brother?”
　　”I like it.” Tao Sizhi said.
　　”Where’s Dad, do you like it?”
　　”like.”
　　”Where’s mom?”
　　”like.”
　　”You like so many people,” Tao Siyuan said, “Is there any difference between these likes?”
　　Tao Sizhi became quiet. After a long time, he said “ah” and then stopped talking.
　　”Brother,” Tao Siyuan glanced at Jiang Ge and said to Tao Sizhi, “Jiang Ge is going to study abroad and will not come back.”
　　Tao Sizhi was quiet for a moment, then said firmly, “No. Jiang Ge will go to school next year. The schooling lasts for three years. He will come back to celebrate my birthday with me.”
　　”No,” Tao Siyuan said, “He has changed his plans and will not come back. But we will still celebrate your birthday with you.”
　　”Why?” Tao Sizhi asked.
　　”Unless you go with him,” Tao Siyuan did not answer Tao Sizhi’s question, “Do you want to go?”
　　Tao Sizhi fell silent.
　　”If you don’t go with him, you will never see him again,” Tao Siyuan continued, “It’s better to go with him. It’s just a different place to stay. It’s not difficult.”
　　”No,” Tao Sizhi suddenly became anxious, “It’s difficult.”
　　”Why not?” Tao Siyuan stared at Jiang Ge and asked his brother, “It’s very simple.”
　　”It’s not simple,” Tao Sizhi said in a panic. He called Jiang Ge by name, “Jiang Ge, Jiang Ge.”
　　Jiang Ge wanted to respond to Tao Sizhi, but he looked at the bright screen and made no sound.
　　”If you can’t go, then you can only say goodbye to Jiang Ge,” Tao Siyuan said, “You can say goodbye to Jiang Ge.”
　　Tao Sizhi was breathing rapidly on the other end, as if he couldn’t accept the message Tao Siyuan gave him. After a while, he said as if begging for mercy: “Jiang Ge, don’t go.”
　　Jiang Ge couldn’t listen anymore and wanted to take away Tao Siyuan’s cell phone and hang up the phone, but as soon as he raised his hand, Tao Siyuan turned around with a big movement, blocked him with his back, and urged Tao Sizhi in a low voice: “Tao Sizhi, don’t talk to Jiang Ge. Goodbye, I’ll go buy a ticket for you. What’s the problem, brother, you are good at making choices.”
　　Tao Sizhi was still calling Jiang Ge’s name, as if hoping that Jiang Ge would come out to refute Tao Siyuan.
　　”Tao Sizhi,” Tao Siyuan called him with a stronger tone, “I’m counting to three now. If you don’t say goodbye to Jiang Ge, you can leave with Jiang Ge.”
　　”one.”
　　”two.”
　　”three.”
　　”I’m going to send you away.” Tao Siyuan said calmly.
　　Then Jiang Ge heard Tao Sizhi’s voice. Tao Sizhi said: “Jiang Ge, goodbye.”
　　Tao Siyuan hung up the phone and said to Jiang Ge, “This is what Tao Sizhi means when he says he likes you.”
　　Jiang Ge’s cell phone vibrated. Tao Sizhi called him.
　　He looked at the screen. Tao Siyuan reached out and hung up Tao Sizhi’s phone. Looking into Jiang Ge’s eyes, he dialed the number of the communication service provider and reported Tao Sizhi’s mobile phone number.
　　”Don’t let me know that you are meeting my brother again,” he said to Jiang Ge, “otherwise I will give the surveillance video to your mother.”
　　The author has something to say: Xiao Jiang is sorry, grandma will be kind to you in the future.
　　Chapter 32
　　Tao Sizhi searched the web for “Can’t make calls on mobile phone” and it showed that there was no available network connection.
　　He restarted his phone, and when he unlocked the screen, the “Unregistered Network” prompt box popped up.
　　Tao Sizhi edited a text message and wanted to send it to Jiang Ge, but it was not sent. He edited some others and tried many times. Most of the text messages asked Jiang Ge not to leave, but also told him that his mobile phone could not make calls, and told Jiang that “I want to eat chestnut cake”, but they were not sent successfully.
　　Tao Sizhi wanted to find someone to ask, but there was no one in the dormitory.
　　He got out of bed and walked into the corridor in the dark. He wanted to go downstairs to the duty room to borrow a phone. He met the dormitory administrator who was patrolling up with a flashlight.
　　The dormitory manager was startled by him and shined a flashlight in his face. Tao Sizhi covered her eyes due to the flickering light.
　　The administrator asked him: “Why are you still outside after turning off the lights?”
　　Tao Sizhi told the administrator that he wanted to borrow his cell phone to call his brother. The administrator asked him what happened, and he said, “My cell phone can’t make calls.” The administrator scolded him and drove him back to his dormitory.
　　After returning to the dormitory, Tao Sizhi thought about why Jiang Ge left. He thought about it all night but couldn’t figure out the reason. He planned to ask Jiang Ge what happened when they met at the iron fence.
　　At night, Tao Sizhi thought about some benefits of this city and wrote it in a memo on his mobile phone. Later, his phone ran out of battery, so he climbed out of bed and charged it. By the time he wrote in the morning, Tao Sizhi had come up with a total of 27 items and 3,024 words.
