Chapter 1: First Encounter

Next Chapter

On the day I went to college, my father took me to the train station, and he didn't talk much, and we didn't talk much along the way, but he took me to the ticket gate, and when I was about to enter the station, my father suddenly stuffed me with an envelope.

My mother was very strict, and she usually gave my father money for a pack of cigarettes, and I touched the bulging envelope and knew that it was my father's private money that he had saved for a long time.

The first time I went out of the house, I stood there looking straight at my father, and my eyes suddenly blurred. My father was a soldier, and when he returned to our town, he married his mother and opened a small store that wholesaled snacks.

After a long time, my father said, "If you are alone, don't be reluctant to spend money, if you don't have enough, ask for it from your family, and it is more than enough for Dad to support you." ”

I didn't dare look up at my father, because I knew that my tears were already rolling in my eyes at that time.

I nodded at my father, who waved at me for me to get in, and I turned around and dragged my suitcase inside. I later learned that my father had been watching behind me for a long, long time that day, and he didn't leave until my figure disappeared at the entrance.

The separation between me and my father reminds me of Long Yingtai's book "Eye Delivery": I slowly and slowly learned that the so-called parent-child relationship just means that the fate between you and him is to constantly watch his back drift away in this life and this life. You stand on this part of the path, watching him fade away at the bend in the path, and he silently tells you with his back: don't chase.

When I was young, I looked at my father's back, and when I grew up, my father looked at my back.

After nearly seven and a half hours by train, I arrived in the city where I was about to live for four years, and I tried to breathe the air here that was different from my hometown, and everything here was so new to me.

Coming out of the train station, the bus that picks up the new students from the school has been waiting there for a long time, because my family is far away, and I am the last person to get on the bus today.

I am very pleased with the tradition that the school organizes buses to pick up new students three times a day when the school is about to start, and I am very pleased with this tradition, which has brought our students from other places closer to the city.

After getting in the car, I quickly looked for a vacant seat, and suddenly a loud male voice came from the back seat, "Classmate, there is still a vacant seat, sit here!"

I hurriedly walked over, this is the first time I have seen him, although it is close to 9 o'clock in the evening, the lights in the car are a little dim, but I can still vaguely see his appearance, high nose bridge, big eyes, those eyes are as bright as the stars in the sky, and the eyelashes longer than a girl, the sunny smile, in my heart caused a pool of ripples.

He must have noticed that I was looking at him, and he smiled at me, and I immediately withdrew my gaze from him, and I could feel my cheek next to him, which was hot.

"Where is your house?" he spoke first, breaking the awkward situation.

"I'm from Wuyuan, Jiangxi, what about you?" I asked, tilting my head to look at him.

"I'm from Luoyang, Henan, and your Jiangxi is also far away from Beijing, so it takes 7 hours to take the train?"

"Well, it's almost seven and a half hours, what about you Luoyang?"

"It's nearly seven and a half hours for us to take the train, so we're destined to meet thousands of miles away!"

I smiled at him and didn't dare look at him again for fear I would fall into it. I turned my head to look out the window at the night scene, the lights were bright, and the road was full of pedestrians, some running on the way to work, some dragging their tired bodies on the way home, they seemed to have a common trait, that is, they wanted to step on the hot wheels under their feet.

This is the city that never sleeps, a city where effort and reward are equal, a city that all young people dream of, a place where people can become famous overnight or have nothing overnight.

And I am about to spend 4 years of my university life here, and I am extremely excited and excited.

I don't know how long the car had been driving, but before I could enjoy the night view, the car slowly drove into the school.

The classmates in the car got out of the car one after another, and I followed behind him, he was very tall, more than a head taller than me, and I felt a sense of security inexplicably standing behind him.

After getting out of the car, he asked me which was my luggage, I pointed to the red suitcase inside, and a striped woven bag, and he reached out and helped me carry my luggage.

I quickly thanked him, smiled and waved at me, and then walked towards the boys' dormitory.

"What major are you?" I shouted hurriedly at his back, I didn't know why I suddenly asked him what major, I was surprised at my own behavior, maybe he was the first ray of sunshine I saw after coming to this strange city.

"My computer, what about you?" he heard my shout, and hurriedly dragged his suitcase back in front of me.

"I'm in business administration," I replied quickly.

"In Xia Zhangbei, dare to ask your classmates for their names!" he smiled at me and made a fist in front of me.

I was amused by his Jianghu ceremony and giggled, and I also clenched my fists with my hands and said, "Girl, Liang Jingzi, thank you just now, we will meet later!"

"Yo.... It's learning very fast, okay, then we'll have a meeting later!" Zhang Bei made another gesture at me, and then walked towards the boys' dormitory.

I watched him fade into the twilight, and then I carried my luggage and headed for the girls' dormitory. The dormitory teacher was already waiting for us at the door, and she gave us the keys one by one according to our name and specialty.

I took the key and walked towards 402, I opened the door of the dormitory lightly, there are a total of 4 beds in the dormitory, standing at the door, I can see at a glance, there are already 2 beds on top, and the upper bunk by the window has students resting.

There are also 2 empty beds, the upper berth near the entrance and the lower berth by the window inside.

I was born to sleep dishonestly, so I chose the lower bunk by the window, I walked in lightly, put my luggage, I lived on the upper bunk is a Sichuan girl, she is very enthusiastic.

When she heard movement in the lower bunk, she quickly poked her head out of the upper bunk, smiled at me and said, "Do you need help?"

"I thought you were asleep, so I didn't dare to say hello to you!" I watched her explain quickly, for fear that people would say that I was impolite, and when I came, my father told me to have a good relationship with my classmates, and people should learn to be gregarious.

"Why fall asleep so quickly, I'm not used to changing the bed at all, this bed board is much harder than my bed. She pouted as she gently tapped her waist.

After I smiled at her shallowly, I continued to bow my head and arrange my bedding and luggage, and suddenly she shouted at me, "Ah, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Xu Shuran from Sichuan, what about you?"

I was startled by her surprise, and when I looked up, my head hit the bed board of the top bunk and suddenly my eyes were full of stars, and she quickly reached out and rubbed it for me after seeing it, and looked sorry.

I endured the pain and grinned at her, "It's okay, my name is Liang Jingzi, I'm from Wuyuan, Jiangxi."

Then I glanced at the empty bed across from me, which had already been made and said, "What about the classmate in that bed?"

Xu Shuran leaned out and looked down and said, "Oh, she, her home is in Beijing, isn't it that school hasn't started yet, so she hasn't lived in school recently, wait for school to start!"

After smiling at Xu Shuran, I continued to make my bed and luggage, Xu Shuran poked his head out again and asked me, "Do you really need help?"

I shook my head at her, and she turned around and went back to sleep.

I lay on the bed and looked at the top bunk board, it was my first time spending the night outside, and I felt both excited and reluctant.
