Chapter 101: The Sound of Snow Falling (II)
As soon as Qiao Lu left, the loneliest person should be Xu Wei. Perhaps Xue Dongmei's departure had a great impact on him, and he felt more and more that this long-distance relationship was not a long-term solution, and he had to go to the United States to accompany Qiao Lu as soon as possible.
Last night, after Zhao Yu carried Qiao Nan home, the Qiao family finally fell into a temporary calm. Qiao Lu flew from San Francisco to Shanghai, and from Shanghai to Hong Kong City, and was busy with Xue Dongmei's funeral just two days after she returned...... Xu Wei took her out for dinner, and while she was waiting for the meal to be served, she actually fell asleep on Xu Wei's shoulder.
In my impression, this is the first time Qiao Lu has taken the initiative to lean on herself, does it mean that she has become her most trusted support? Xu Wei hugged her, but after a while, he felt that his shoulders were wet.
"Sister, are you crying?"
Qiao Lu patted her cheek: "I've been too fragile lately, and the tears I shed in my life are not as much as these days." ”
"Me too...... I hadn't talked to Xue Dongmei much before, but after she left, she realized the fragility of life for the first time. She has been saying that human life is not necessarily long. Come to think of it, it is. ”
Xu Wei took Qiao Lu to a dumpling restaurant near Jixiang Road, and people in Hong Kong City have to eat mackerel dumplings when they return to their hometowns, which have high technical requirements, so ordinary people will not make them easily. Qiao Jianjun is good at craftsmanship, but so many things have happened, where is the heart to make dumplings? So before Qiao Lu left, Xu Wei specially brought her to eat dumplings.
Qiao Lu barely ate two, and she couldn't eat anymore. She took a sip of water and said slowly, "Haven't you always wondered why I'm unhappy? Now I want to tell you......"
Xu Wei nervously put down his chopsticks, shrouded in inexplicable unease. Qiao Lu's lips trembled, and she said angrily: "There are two people from a certain country in South Asia in our research room, and they ...... Hands and feet on me......"
There was a loud "bang", and the chair opposite them had been kicked over by Xu Wei, and everyone was startled, accusing this young man of no quality. Xu Wei didn't care at all, stared at the red eyes and asked, "Where are they? Are they still in the United States?"
Qiao Lu pulled him to sit down and whispered, "I'm afraid that you and Qiao Nan will be like this, so I don't dare to tell you." I beg you to sit down and listen to me, okay?"
Xu Wei reluctantly sat down and took a sip of beer.
"It's not as serious as you think, and they don't dare to harass me openly, about two or three times, when there is no one in the lab, they tell me to do experiments, and then they ...... It's very close...... Qiao Lu closed her eyes painfully: "The last time, I turned my face with that queen Bo, and he said with a hippie smile that he was joking with me." I was so angry that I wanted to go to the school human rights committee to sue them for sexual harassment. But I can resist other things openly, how can I open my mouth about this kind of thing...... It was only then that I realized that I was not that brave. ”
Qiao Lu covered her face again: "Besides, whenever they do that, I always remember those particularly bad experiences in the past." Really, painful enough to kill myself. ”
Xu Wei knew that she had been hurt in high school, he was furious, and immediately said: "Sister, tomorrow you go first, and then I will buy a ticket to go to the United States with you, and I will kill those two eight lambs!"
"Don't worry, listen to me. After being harassed by them, the more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I became, and the next day I went to school to sue them. But there were no cameras in the lab, and I didn't take pictures, which is equivalent to no evidence of being harassed by them. So, I can only suffer this dumb loss. ”
Although it has been a while, Qiao Lu still trembled as soon as she said it, and couldn't help but drink a glass of wine.
"And then? Are they still in your school?"
"They both have a master's degree and a doctorate, and as soon as the semester is over, they are both gone. Qiao Lu smiled bitterly: "That postdoc plagiarized my idea, and I only found out after his paper was published." ”
Qiao Lu grabbed her hair in annoyance: "Blame me too, I shouldn't have said my thoughts easily in private." Now it's good, something I've been working on
, but he came up with the results first. ”
Xu Wei was dumbfounded when he heard this, and watched Qiao Lu drink another glass of wine, and then heard her say helplessly: "My semester has been in vain." ”
Xu Wei is more angry than Qiao Lu, and this anger not only comes from the incident itself, but also from himself - he did not protect the woman he loves, and in addition to anger, he blames himself.
"Sister, can't we go to this school? You come back and find a job, and we can live in peace and stability in the country, can't we?"
Qiao Lu shook her head lightly: "No, just give up like this, I can't swallow this breath." ”
Xu Wei admires Qiao Lu's tenacity the most, but what is most helpless now is also her tenacity.
Qiao Lu said: "When I participated in the selection of public derivation, I was afraid every day, afraid that I would not pass; after passing, I was tripped by the security deposit, thinking that this would not be done; the security deposit was solved, and there were a lot of unexpected difficulties. This level is passed, and the most difficult is always behind. I can't give up, and if I give up, I'll lose. ”
"Besides, my guarantee was given to me by Director Song of the Fund Committee at that time, and if I give it up now, I will be sorry for him. In a slightly drunk state, Qiao Lu gradually opened up the conversation: "Maybe in the eyes of others, the title of 'Gong Derivation' is glamorous, but compared with other students, my current income is indeed not very high." Doing scientific research is a particularly lonely road, and when you compare yourself with others, you are more likely to be anxious. I'm afraid that I won't achieve anything in the end, and I'm afraid that I'll disappoint everyone. I studied for a master's degree and a doctorate, and if I gave up halfway, I wouldn't even be able to get a master's degree. In the dead of night, I doubted my choice countless times. However, when I came back this time, I found that all my anxiety came from my own greed. Compared to Xue Dongmei, compared to the vast majority of people, I already have too much. From now on, I will no longer compete with myself, even if I walk a little slower and fall behind others, I will continue to walk. After all, even though this road is a tunnel with no end in sight, I walk forward every day, and one day, I will see the light coming in, right?"
Qiao Lu patted her cheek again, I am afraid that she was also surprised how she could say so much. Xu Wei silently drank a few glasses of wine and said, "Sister, you don't have to worry, you have me behind you." It is said that scientists are poor, but you don't have to worry about this problem, your boyfriend has a solid background. To tell you the truth, now that there are two companies in my name, your future wealth can definitely kill most of your classmates. ”
"Ha?!" Qiao Lu had never seen Xu Wei show off his wealth so much, he was very cute.
"Even if you need research funding, I can provide it for you. Even if you get tired and annoyed one day and don't want to do research, I can compensate you for liquidated damages and not let you leave any bad records. You can be the young grandmother of the Xu family with peace of mind, if you can't be idle, I will give you a few companies and let you take care of it. ”
Xu Wei said again: "I'm telling you this, not to show off, but to ...... Let you know the bottom of your heart, and stop fighting with yourself. ”
As soon as the wine came up, Qiao Lu's face was like a peach blossom, she listened quietly, and suddenly pinched Xu Wei's cheek: "You little thing, you can really make my sister happy." ”
"When you're happy, don't be anxious. ”
"Well, no more anxiety. Qiao Lu said movingly: "My little boyfriend has said this, if I am anxious again, wouldn't it be too faceless?"
Xu Wei also smiled, and now he has a feeling of falling in love. Qiao Lu grabbed his hand and said seriously: "I have such a reliable boyfriend, so I can do research without any worries." I just want to go on the road of new energy, not only for the ideal, but also for the ...... Don't die anymore......"
Don't die anymore......
Xu Wei shook her hand emotionally and said, "Okay, I support you!"
The residual warmth of those little hands was still there, and Qiao Lu had already left, and Xu Wei fell into emptiness again. With only a few months left to graduate, he had to hurry up and apply to the school. What he wants to do most now is to blow up the two Ah San's dog heads and protect Qiao Lu well.
Before Qiao Lu left, he told him to enlighten Qiao Nan more. Qiao Lu said worriedly: "He doesn't eat, drink, or sleep. It would be nice if he could cry, but he didn't cry either. If you hold it like this, there will definitely be problems. ”
Xu Wei agreed to her, even if she didn't tell him, he was worried about his friend's status. After Qiao Lu left, he pulled all the Qiao family back, and Qiao Nan and Zhao Yu took a taxi and followed. It seemed that overnight, Qiao Nan's cheeks were completely concave, and his beard was still unshaved. Also, his girlfriend just died, and his sister left, how else could he comfort him? Xu Wei couldn't think of it, so he didn't say anything in vain.
"Qiao Nan, my mother just opened a hot pot restaurant, let's try it, and the brothers will drink together in the evening. Xu Wei tried to speak as enthusiastically as possible.
"No, I want to be alone. ”
Xu Wei patted him on the shoulder and whispered, "Dude, cry if you want to." It's all like this, what's the shame of crying?"
"Cry a fart!" Qiao Nan flicked his hand away and said in an urn voice: "I'll go out for a walk and come back in the evening." ”
Zhao Yu knelt down all of a sudden: "God, save me, Lao Tzu's leg is going to be broken!"
Qiao Nan barely squeezed out a smile: "You just wait for me here, I definitely won't do anything stupid." ”
Everyone was not at ease, Qiao Nan smiled again: "My words count, let's go!"
The snow in the port city is coming, and maybe a gust of wind can bring a burst of snow. Qiao Nan walked against the wind, the cold north wind blew his cheeks painfully, and his appearance looked like a sharp brother. He wandered aimlessly, crying, what use was he to win their sympathy?
There is a flower shop opposite No. 2 Middle School, and there are delicate roses outside. The proprietress greeted warmly: "Young man, the day after tomorrow is Valentine's Day, buy a bouquet of flowers for your girlfriend!"
Qiao Nan didn't answer, only sneered.
"Yo, you're so handsome, you don't have a girlfriend yet, right?"
"Give me a bouquet for 99 flowers. ”
The proprietress was very happy: "The young man is so generous, ouch, your girlfriend is really blessed to find a boyfriend like you!"
To Qiao Nan's ears, such words were simply ironic.
He held the flowers and said to himself: "After dating for so long, it is the first time I have sent you roses." ”
He flagged down a taxi and went straight to Nanshan Cemetery. The driver was listening to the radio, and a sad song was playing on the radio.
"The snow in February is like a farewell,
When we walked through the street. ”
Outside the window, it was the street they had once walked. A few children in the uniforms of No. 2 Middle School can be seen sporadically, as if they were yesterday.
"White Valentine's Day
You'll never see what you say."
They used to say they wanted to be together forever, and "forever" was so short.
"Love is a catastrophe,
Destroyed my original world. ”
Qiao Nan didn't expect that this first love would destroy all his world.
The driver was concentrating on driving, when he suddenly heard a sobbing sound from the back seat, and from the rearview mirror, he saw the young man crying heartily in the back seat. The driver guessed that this young man was either a soldier or a sports practitioner, exuding a chilling masculinity. But he held a large bouquet of roses in his hand and cried like a child who had lost a toy.
"Hey, boy, are you alright?" he cried so sadly that the driver couldn't help but care.
He was answered by an even more unbridled cry, and the poignant female voice that floated out of the radio.
"The snow in February is in front of the window,
blurred the line of sight,
The moment the tears fell,
I miss you so much, but I don't have the words. ”
I miss you so much, but I don't have the words.
