Peking University-School of Economics and Management Teaching Building,
The morning exam is over, and the bell in the exam room has already rang.
Most of the people in the teaching building have left.
"Are you really not going to the cafeteria with us?"
At this time, a beautiful figure appeared at the door of a classroom. Before Gu Lin went out with Yu Qin and other girls, she looked back.
In the already empty classroom, the only figure who had not left yet looked up from the desk.
With short black shoulder-length hair, a quiet and petite face, and a slender figure, she has a simple and clean look.
Her calmly raised eyes were like crystal clear spring water,
It makes people see independence and strength at a glance.
Fang Xiaoran shook his head, and in response to Gu Lin's kind inquiry, he just spoke calmly and in a clear voice:
"No, I brought food. You can go."
"Okay, let's go first."
"Xiaoran, see you in the afternoon."
Watching the former roommates wave and leave with smiles, the empty corridor suddenly became silent.
Fang Xiaoran looked at the classroom where he was the only one left.
There was another exam in the afternoon, and she didn't want to waste time going to the cafeteria.
At this time, I took out the lunch I had brought with me when I went out in the morning, the homemade cake from the hut and a carton of milk from my schoolbag.
Fang Xiaoran ate slowly while looking back at the textbook on the table.
The textbook is filled with neat and elegant annotations, and the notebook beside is filled with notes taken in class.
Although I have never missed any classes on weekdays, and I have already reviewed the exam content, but even so, I did not relax in the last time before the exam.
In the lunch break classroom, the only sound of a girl turning pages flowed with time.
Then after turning the last page of the notes for an unknown number of times,
Fang Xiaoran breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the time, raised his hands and slowly lay on the desk. It was still early for the exam to start.
She should take a nap now so that she can face the afternoon exam with better energy.
But maybe it was because I was separated from the focused study state and all kinds of thoughts were suddenly liberated from my mind.
Winter vacation, booking tickets, going home, celebrating the New Year,
Let Fang Xiaoran lie on the desk and be lost in thought for a while, unable to sleep.
Speaking of which, Fangran will be back soon...
Then when the thought of that young man came up, the thoughts related to him were suddenly touched.
More than half a month of internship, plus the month he left before,
It seems like I haven't seen him in normal life for a long time...
Counting the time that young man was away, thinking that in the past month and a half, he had not been present in the daily life of the hut,
Fang Xiaoran buried his face in his arms again.
Thinking about the incredible encounter with him at the beginning of this semester, and thinking about our life together on campus this semester,
Finally, I remembered the woman’s voice and the roar of explosions that I heard when I called him not long ago.
Fang Xiaoran actually wanted to ask clearly what he was going through when he was outside.
But she didn't know how to ask, or what to do if she asked.
superpower....
State secret agency....
At some point, the young man was already in a distance that she couldn't understand at all. Thinking about the huge changes in him compared to before,
He is now working hard and confidently, chasing a figure that is growing rapidly, and is even more dazzling than before that incident.
It made Fang Xiaoran feel like he could no longer catch up with him,
Just like when I was a kid....
Looking at the textbook cover close to her eyes, she thought of her childhood, her hometown, and the child king in her past memory who held her hand and played everywhere.
Thinking of him comforting me when I fell, thinking of the time he carried me home on his back...
Drowsiness wells up in my thoughts of recollection, remembering that this semester is about to end,
Will he go home during the winter vacation...
Fang Xiaoran slowly closed his eyes. After this last thought emerged, he lay on the desk and fell asleep unconsciously.
Then it happened to be bright, a beam of sunlight slanted into the classroom,
Illuminating the young man in a black-haired suit sitting next to her.
Fangran has been sitting here since just now, looking at Fang Xiaoran's side face sleeping peacefully, wondering if she could sleep peacefully like this.
Quietly raising his hand, the [Quiet Card] and [Sleep Card] turned into a burst of light and activated,
Then he gently picked up the coat on the back of the chair and put it on her.
Looking at the unclosed notes on her desk, even the short lunch break must be used for final review.
The girl in front of me is still working hard as always,
As a member of the family of an official participant, especially an A-level sister, she actually doesn't have to work so hard in her studies.
There are so many ways for her to live without worries and do whatever she wants to do.
But if I told her this, she would definitely not accept it...
Fangran looked at Fang Xiaoran, who was obviously tired from reviewing for days, and thought with a helpless sigh in his heart,
Having grown up together, they know each other too well.
From a remote town located on the northern border with backward education, he became the only top scorer in the college entrance examination admitted to Beijing University in several years.
How hard has the girl in front of me worked so hard in her three years of high school?
Fangran couldn't be more clear.
I want to get into a prestigious school, I want to find a good job, I want to make a lot of money to improve my family’s conditions, I want to support my family alone in the future,
Ever since that incident, thoughts like this were probably engraved in her heart.
Let her start to be independent and strong as if she has become a different person.
I no longer always follow you behind me like before...
At this moment, looking at Fang Xiaoran's sleeping profile, a picture in his memory suddenly appeared in Fangran's mind like a fish jumping out of the water.
‘Do you know! Why don’t you tell me!??’
'I do not know anything....'
Angry, sad, wronged, incomprehensible, all kinds of emotions merged violently, turning into the girl staring at herself with tears in her eyes,
Faced with a young man who was too stubborn to answer, that was perhaps the only time the two had a conflict since childhood.
That is to say, since that time, the relationship between the two has become the same as before.
The quiet and well-behaved girl who used to obey him in everything turned into a girl who was silently indifferent to him and wanted to be independent and strong.
The relationship that was originally close and harmonious has become alienated, creating a sense of distance.
No more going home together, no more going out together,
Throughout the three years of high school, I would only speak when needed in school.
At home, I would only say a few words when I was alone occasionally.
After they both went to college, they only saw each other during winter and summer vacations.
And even if they see each other, they usually don’t know what to say.
Although the quarrel had been somewhat diluted by now, several years had still made them a little unfamiliar and didn't know how to communicate with each other.
Recalling the times when the two of them got along in the past few years, and recalling the time since they met this semester,
Thinking of the time we spent together in the hut, and the care we received in the ward after the North Pole,
I remember going shopping together on the night of Beginning of Winter and then going back,
There was a hint of relief in Fangran's eyes.
If he hadn't been abducted to the capital by accident,
It may take a long time for them to reconcile...
It was bright at noon, and the sunlight was like transparent river water, filling the entire classroom through the windows.
The originally bustling examination room seemed to sink into the silence of the bottom of the water.
The black-haired young man stayed beside his sister who was sleeping peacefully.
At this time, he reached out his hand and gently picked up a strand of Fang Xiaoran's hair. He remembered that before that incident,
During the four years of junior high school, I always followed my sweet girl quietly, thinking about them going home from school together, doing homework together, and watching TV together.
We go out to play together on the weekends, spend the winter and summer vacations together, share delicious food together, share fun things together,
We went for an outing by the water with our parents, and played in the snow in the community while covering up tightly.
In spring, autumn, winter and summer, countless pictures come flooding in, the time we spent growing up together,
Piece it together into a life called the past.
I remember the crybaby who always wanted to play with me when I was young, because he was afraid of being lonely.
Thinking of the small town that holds all the memories, and the upcoming winter vacation and Spring Festival,
He looked at the sleeping girl next to him and smiled reassuringly. Then he raised his head and looked at the noon sunshine outside the classroom.
