Chapter 17: Surprise

Yinglong remembers that the opening ceremony was held in the school's open-air cinema.

The late summer sun is a bit sweaty.

Yinglong and a classmate sat on a cement bench in the back row, dizzy and sweaty from the sun, but there was nowhere to hide, so they had to sit there in a daze, with their heads bowed and their arms on their thighs, palms supporting their foreheads, and sitting there with their heads bowed and listening to the principal's gushing speeches.

"Students! Ben Cheng University ushered in the annual opening ceremony for new students! Students from all over the motherland gathered in the yellow earth of Ben Cheng University......

The principal spoke passionately and his eyebrows fluttered, conveying his unique ideas to the freshmen.

"Finally, I hope that after you graduate, you will not forget everything about this place, the library that once gave you a lot of books, the cherry blossom garden that blooms in full bloom every spring, and the knowledge you learned in college. Thank you, thank you for choosing Ben Thanh University for your long college years!"

The principal gave an impassioned speech for about thirty minutes, and then the audience burst into applause.

Then, after the secretary of the party committee finished speaking, the teaching director strode onto the podium, "Hello students! The sky is high and the birds fly, and the sea is wide and the fish jumps ......."

After the director of education said for twenty minutes, he concluded: "Finally, I have to remind all the new students, although you are in your prime and strong, it is forbidden to fall in love during college, and some of you students should not have a nervous breakdown in love before graduation!"

When the last sentence was spoken, the students in the audience laughed and applauded warmly. Yinglong and his roommate also thought it was quite funny when they heard it, and they were looking down at each other and couldn't help laughing, when they suddenly heard it

The dean of education said loudly behind the microphone: "Hey, I said the two students in the back row, do you think I can't talk well with the principal and secretary and doze off there!"

Yinglong and his roommate were shocked, and hurriedly raised their heads, and found that their classmates were sweeping towards them with blazing eyes: "Say you!

Some of the students were laughing "poof", while others cast contemptuous glances.

Yinglong and his roommate were so embarrassed that they wanted to find a gap in the ground to get into, so they hurriedly lowered their heads with a red face, and sat honestly with their eyes on the ground.

The opening ceremony ended quickly, and he and his roommate took the opportunity to leave the open-air movie theater with a "whoosh" and trotted all the way back to the dormitory, so as not to be caught by their classmates.

Some of the students looked at their embarrassed backs and pointed, bowed their heads and snickered.

The course schedule of the first year of college is not tight, and Yinglong feels that studying is not too tiring. He would often come to the side of the campus after eating in the cafeteria, in the woods below a small dirt slope

Take a walk on the shaded path.

The trail is also quite wide, with a long distance.

Yinglong will often see pairs of young couples walking by hand in hand.

He would often pace into the tree-lined path at the intersection near the school gate, and on the right side of the road was a low dirt slope cut straight above the ground, with dense pine and cypress trees.

Whenever Yinglong walks alone, he often thinks about the admission letter.

What he didn't understand was that Yinglong didn't know how Yingzhu got the admission letter, and why his admission letter actually went to Yingzhu.

According to Yingzhu's explanation, the university admission letter was someone else's at all, and she just wanted Yinglong to go to college, and found another admission letter so that Yinglong's name could be changed.

Yinglong didn't understand this, and he couldn't know why Yingzhu carved his name, but the paper he saw at that time seemed to have the words "Yinglong" or "Yingyou" written on it, and he didn't see it clearly, after all, there was only a difference of one stroke.

Anyway, Yinglong thinks that Yingzhu shouldn't be so reckless, let alone burn that admission letter, after all, there is something in his hand, and he can figure it out in the future.

When Yinglong thought of these things while walking, he inevitably felt indignant in his heart.

His mood could not be calmed for a long time, like a comet streaking across the sky, crashing into the earth and igniting a raging fire.

Yinglong felt that God was unfair to him, and the hand of fate actually moved him around, but did not leave him a good result.

This made Yinglong, who already had a strong family concept, suddenly feel betrayed.

However, now that we have stepped into the university gate, the new campus life is about to take on a new look to brush away the old face of students, after all, this is a place called "ivory tower" by the world, a hundred gardens full of curiosity.

In the rich learning atmosphere, Yinglong's sad memories slowly faded, and he didn't even want to recall this sad past.

For a long time, these troubles have not been reawakened, as if they have been forgotten by him, and have been locked in a corner of the depths of his memory, buried in the dust.

So much so that Yinglong forgot about this incident for a long time, as if it were a deleted program, and this incident finally left only a blank in his memory.

And in the following years, when his classmates asked him about his disappointment, his memory seemed to have been activated as if someone had activated the button, but Yinglong was desperately removing that hand to prevent people from waking up this sad past.

In this way, as time slowly passed, he gradually forgot about this matter, so that later he also "acquiesced" to the fact that he was not admitted to the university, just like other students who failed to make the list, although he walked across the single-plank bridge, although he did not reach the other side, he had another place to go.

Yinglong and his classmates are busy going to class every day, shuttling through the campus paths with books and pens under their arms.

After class, they lined up in the cafeteria with lunch boxes, eating unpalatable meals. When it comes to the food in the student cafeteria, it is really interesting.

The steamed buns for breakfast are round and big, but the taste is hard, and the white rice porridge is thick and thick, and the stomach is warm and sweet and delicious when you drink it.

It's a pity that Yinglong often comes a step late because he gets up late in the morning, and misses this delicious white rice porridge, so he can only regretfully nibble on the steamed buns that are more difficult to bite to fill his stomach.

Whenever after dinner, Yinglong would carry a large hot water bottle to the boiling water room behind the public bathroom and line up to turn on the water.

The students who turned on the water had already lined up in a long line, carrying hot water bottles and aluminum buckets under the faucet to pick up steaming water.

When the hot water flows out of the tap, the steaming heat fills the sky over the boiling water room, and the concrete floor is drenched, and if you are not careful, you will slip and fall.

At this time, the students at the back of the queue were taking out plastic water stamps the size of food stamps and handing them to the caretaker uncle who was guarding the hot water, so that he could get boiling water as soon as possible.

The anxious expressions on the faces of the seniors and seniors were overflowing.

In the bedroom of Yinglong, there are four bunk beds, divided into bunk beds.

There was a small iron staircase at the head of the bed to make it easy to get on and off the bed, Yinglong slept underneath, and another fat out-of-town classmate slept on the top bunk.

Speaking of the brother on the upper bunk, whenever he turned over in the middle of the night, after the creaking sound, he sprinkled some dust and fell on Yinglong's face intermittently, making him not irritable, but he was not complaining, so he threw the dust on his face, turned sideways and continued to sleep.

There are also two large desks in the room, and fluorescent lamps hang overhead, which looks more abundant.

Each student has a bookshelf and wall cabinet for easy storage of books and clutter.

Outside the bedroom is a sink for washing, and on the other side is a bathroom where you can take a cold shower in the summer.

However, because the tap water at the school is very cold, it is said to be extracted groundwater, so there are not many students who take cold showers because this tap water is too cold.

Most of the roommates in Yinglong's room would wander around campus after dinner.

So Yinglong found that there were very few students left in the dormitory after boiling water.

Normally, roommates would walk until the lights were on before returning to the dorm to do their homework.

Or some students go to the school library early with their books to review their homework.

Therefore, Yinglong was not in a hurry to stay in the dormitory to do his homework after dinner, but after getting boiling water, he walked to the tree-lined path to take a slow walk to relax his nervous mood, and only when the afterglow of sunset fell on the west side of the campus, he returned to the dormitory to review his homework in order to complete the day's homework.

It wasn't until 10 p.m. that the boys' dormitory lights out and went to bed.

Sometimes, on weekends when there are no classes, students will gather at a table to play poker. even

Until the lights go out, the students who are not happy will go to the store downstairs to buy candles and fight at night.

Sometimes the noise is so loud that the other dormitories can't sleep peacefully, so some people will run to the dormitory on the first floor to complain about them.

As a result, the dormitory manager, who was over half a hundred years old, came to knock on the door in the middle of the night and reminded the students not to make a fire, and to go to bed in time, otherwise, they would be sued to the homeroom teacher.

The roommates are all young men with strong blood, and they don't take the dormitory manager in their eyes at all, but they are afraid of the head teacher's punishment, so they have to reluctantly clean up before climbing into bed.

Yinglong is often made to cry and laugh by his roommates, they are all young people and will be so naughty, not like adult students at all.

However, it reminded him of the lifeless life of his previous high school, which was hard and stressful, and seemed lifeless to him.

On the contrary, these lives with some surprises now inevitably make him feel nostalgic.

But college is going to graduate after all, and how to spend his life in the future makes him think about it, and even then, now is just the beginning.

What kind of prospects for the future is still vague in his eyes, and he wants to draw a blueprint, but he doesn't know how to write, so he has to carefully move forward step by step.

Yinglong is worried that in the future, he still doesn't have a clear direction in his heart, he only knows that he wants to find a job after graduation, but he doesn't know how to find it.

Therefore, in the dead of night, he would lie in bed and think repeatedly about how to achieve his inner desire and whether there would be a satisfactory outcome in the future.

These thoughts often kept him awake at night, and he didn't close his eyes until late at night.
