'Dear passengers, the E11 train bound for Jianghai is about to start. Passengers who have not yet boarded the train, please hurry up and get on the train.' The train was about to leave. Gao Zijian quickly handed his luggage to Xia Xinran and said, "Xinran, the train is leaving soon.
Hurry up and get in the car, remember to check that you are safe when you get to school, so I can rest assured." Gao Zijian held her hand tightly, and at this moment, he really didn't want to let go.
Xia Xinran said reluctantly, "Zijian, can you promise me something?"
Gao Zijian said in confusion, "What's the matter? You tell me?"
"Promise me first, and then I'll tell you." She said.
Gao Zijian said, "Okay, I promise you."
Xia Xinran hugged Gao Zijian, hugged him tightly and said, "My dear, promise me not to fight anymore, find a suitable job, and work hard for our future. I believe you can do it."
.”
Gao Zijian nodded, Xia Xinran let go of him, turned around and got on the train. The train started slowly. Xia Xinran stood on the window and waved to them. Gao Zijian just followed the train and ran little by little until the train
Slowly disappeared from sight.
Ye Tingting came over and said, "Zijian, go back, she has left."
Gao Zijian looked into the distance and said with some choking, "Well~~ You leave Ye Zi first, I want to stay here for a while." Ye Tingting sighed helplessly, shook her head, turned and left the platform.
Gao Zijian took out his cigarette, lit it, and took a few deep breaths. At this moment, he realized that his eyes had already been covered with fog. The train had gone very far, but he was still standing on the platform.
Looking at the direction of the train, the ups and downs in his heart could not be described in words. When Wang Xue left, he was not so sad. After an unknown amount of time, he adjusted his mentality and then slowly turned around and left.
.....
Zhao Xiaofan also successfully entered university. This is also a second-tier college, but it focuses on cultivating artistic talents. Dancing, singing, musical instruments, and performances are all related to art and literature. The tuition here is
It is very expensive. To put it bluntly, studying at an art school is actually not much different from paying for it at your own expense.
Sometimes it is even more expensive than studying at university at one's own expense. This is the threshold of the performing arts industry, which is more difficult to get into than the sports world. This is also because Zhao Xiaofan's family is relatively wealthy, so she chooses this kind of institution. She has loved dancing since she was a child.
, my dream is to become a professional dance teacher or dancer.
Her school is very close to Fuyang City, and it is only an hour's journey by long-distance bus from Zhao Xiaofan's home. The reason why she chooses to study in a place that is far away from home is, on the one hand, it is convenient to come back frequently, and on the other hand, it is also because
Being able to visit Gao Zijian often, and because this art school is also a famous school in the country, she signed up without any hesitation.
Today at noon, Gao Zijian made an appointment with her to have dinner at KFC. This KFC store was exactly where he and Xia Xinran came for the first time. Gao Zijian was still sitting in the same position as when he last came, but his eyes were wandering.
, as if he was remembering something.
Zhao Xiaofan touched him and said, "Hey, what are you thinking about? Are you so entranced?"
Gao Zijian came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Oh, it's nothing. I was just thinking that you are either going to college or serving as soldiers. When I arrived, I didn't even have a place to live. I didn't belong to me in this vast world.
Land." When he said this, Zhao Xiaofan clearly felt the sense of loss in his heart.
Zhao Xiaofan put down the hamburger in his hand and said, "What's the matter? You can find a job by yourself, or learn some skills. Now you may not be able to find a way out if you go to college. I believe you can do it based on your ability.
." Zhao Xiaofan was not only encouraging him, but she truly believed that Gao Zijian could do it.
Gao Zijian smiled and nodded, but did not speak, because he did not have much confidence in himself. This was the first time that he doubted his ability. When Zhao Xiaofan saw that he was silent, he asked again, "Is she gone?"
Gao Zijian knew that she was asking Xia Xinran. He took a sip of coffee and said, "Well, I just left a few days ago."
Zhao Xiaofan asked intentionally, "Which university did she go to? I heard that she studied very well and was a talented girl in your school." Zhao Xiaofan's words were slightly jealous.
Gao Zijian smiled and said, "She did study well. She went to Jianghai University."
When Zhao Xiaofan heard about Jianghai University, she looked surprised and said, "Ah? Really? Then she is really not a good one. My cousin also went to Jianghai University this year. It is one of the top ten famous schools in the country. No wonder you like it so much."
What about her? This is the reason for her feelings." This time she was even more jealous, and her words were sour.
Gao Zijian said helplessly, "Oh, you are talking nonsense. What does my liking her have to do with this? Well, let's not talk about her. Let's talk about you. Are you really planning to engage in art?" Gao Zijian always thought that
The art industry is the most unreliable. Only how many artistic talents are successful in our country every year, and most of them are losers.
Zhao Xiaofan smiled and nodded and said, "Yes, this has always been my dream. Shouldn't you be happy for me?" Zhao Xiaofan is still very satisfied with his choice. She doesn't dare to ask for a dancer, but at least in the future
I also want to open a dance studio of my own.
Gao Zijian said with a smile, "Well, of course I am happy for you, then I wish your dream will come true."
Zhao Xiaofan smiled happily and said, "That's pretty much it."
Gao Zijian asked her, "Are you going to report to school tomorrow?"
Zhao Xiaofan nodded and said, "Well, that's right. I'm going to register tomorrow. School will start soon. I'm really looking forward to college life."
Gao Zijian looked at her and said, "Are you deliberately irritating me? You know that I can't go to college and you still say this."
Zhao Xiaofan said proudly, "No, at worst I will tell you about my college life experience. Can you imagine it for yourself?"
Gao Zijian said angrily, "Damn, you can still think of it and imagine it. By the way, do you need me to see you off tomorrow?"
Zhao Xiaofan shook his head and said, "No, no, I don't really like farewell scenes. It will make me cry."
Gao Zijian didn't insist, and nodded as an answer. He himself was not like this, and he didn't like this kind of farewell scene, but there is no endless banquet in this world. People always have to make choices for certain things, or be
choose.
On the day Zhao Xiaofan set out, Gao Zijian still came, but he didn't tell her. He secretly stood far away and watched her. He just watched quietly, watching her hug her parents and friends one by one, and turned around.
After the car left, he stood there for a long time. He didn't even remember how long. He only remembered that he finally dropped the cigarette butt in his hand, smiled bitterly, and turned away, leaving only a burnt cigarette butt on the ground.
...
Two months later, Shi Bing was able to join the army as he wished. The notice from the Ministry of Armed Forces has come out. Being a qualified soldier has always been Shi Bing's ideal. Shi Bing always said that a man has three choices in his life.
There are many things that must be experienced, and one of them is serving as a soldier.
He likes the feeling of wearing a military uniform, which is also the hope of Shi Bing's family. His father hopes that he can develop well in the army. When he becomes a professional in the future, he will be sent to the court or the public security system through trust, relying on Shi Bing's father's ability.
, his son’s future is still relatively bright.
A few days before Shi Bing left, the three brothers had a drink at Da Jun's house. Since their senior year in high school, the three of them had rarely been able to get together. This gathering was very rare. We will have to do so in the future.
I want to get together again, but I don’t know what year or month it is. Tonight, there are only the three of them brothers, and no one else called out, because this is a party for the three of them. Gao Zijian picked up the wine and said, "Bingzi,
Among our three brothers, you are the only one who is settled. I am really happy for you, brother. You can have a good time in the army and get an officer back in the future, so I can get some credit from you, brother."
Dajun also picked up his wine glass and said, "Yes, soldier, when you become a big leader, don't forget our two poor brothers."
Shi Bing looked at them from side to side and said firmly, "Fuck, what are you talking about? If you forget anyone, I can't forget you. The three of us are brothers for life, no matter where we go.
, come and have a drink." The three people clinked their glasses and drank it all in one go.
After putting down the wine glass, Gao Zijian looked at Shi Bing and said, "Bing, this army is no better than ours. When you get there, just be patient. Don't act on your own temper. You will easily suffer. If you miss us,
Just give me a call. You don’t have to worry about things at home. Dajun and I are here, so you can rest assured.”
Shi Bing said a little sadly, "Hey, now that I'm leaving, I don't know when I can come back. I really can't bear to leave you."
Dajun hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, being a soldier is a good thing. It sounds like a separation between life and death. Let's not talk about it. It's a rare time for us brothers to get together today and we won't come back even drunk."
The three of them drank and talked freely until late at night. No one knew how much they drank, but they clearly remembered every word they said. The three of them were all a little drunk, and Da Jun was the first.
He fell down and fell asleep on the ground. He kept saying, "We will always be buddies..."
Shi Bing took advantage of the wine and said, "Zijian, my brother will leave in the next two days. Promise me that you will never let down Xinran. You must make her happy." Shi Bing was already choked with sobs when he spoke.
He tried hard to control his emotions and prevent tears from flowing down, but those bloody red eyes had already betrayed him.
Gao Zijian looked at Shi Bing and said seriously, "Don't worry Bingzi, I will do it. In fact, I know you also like Xinran. Is it because of me that you gave up on her?" This time, Gao Zijian also said what was in his heart.
Come out, and the soldiers will leave in a few days. If you don't tell me now, you may not have a chance in the future.
Shi Bing smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, I admit that I liked Xinran before, but I also know that you like her. Since she has chosen you, I should bless you, not for anything else, just because you are my brother."
.”
When Gao Zijian heard this, he hugged Shi Bing and choked with tears and said, "You are also my brother, my brother forever."
That night, the two drank until they were unconscious. They had not drank like this for a long time, and they talked a lot about each other. Gao Zijian also learned from this that there was actually another girl in Shi Bing's heart, but it was just
Shi Bing did not tell him who the girl was, but Gao Zijian had already guessed that besides Wen Xuan, he could not think of anyone else who could make Shi Bing so worried.
Gao Zijian looked at the drunk Shi Bing. Suddenly, he felt sorry for him. He always stood behind him and silently supported him. Without Shi Bing, maybe Gao Zijian wouldn't have accomplished anything. Still
He was still the timid boy who recognized others and bullied him. When he thought that Shi Bing would leave in a few days, Gao Zijian felt an indescribable pain in his heart, but no one would have thought that Gao Zijian and Shi Bing would be separated from each other.
