Chapter 288: Where to Find the Old Dream
A flashing civilian airplane shuttles through the stratosphere. The air flow shook its wings slightly, passed through a large area of clouds, and then swept in a northeasterly direction, and traces of exhaust still remained in the air.
Shanghai Pudong International Airport, located in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, 30 kilometers away from the city center, is a 4F-level civil airport, one of the three major gateway complex hubs in China, and the largest hub airport in East China.
As the largest gateway airport, it has the most prosperous scene, with daily sunrise and sunset, countless flights taking off and landing, and sending people to all parts of the country and the whole world. Standing next to the airport sidewalk, you can see unfamiliar faces under the steel dome, with occasional people stopping and more people hurrying to drag their luggage to various places.
Countless crowds converged into a gray trajectory that flooded the entire airport, and various industries such as taxi taxis and soliciting customers were born.
At the same time, on the periphery of the airport, people came and went, Yu Xiaoban stood on the bustling road with his luggage, his white face seemed to flow under the backlight, and his narrow eyes were slightly squinted after being illuminated by the strong light.
Just when Xiao Ban looked around, there were no less than four or five taxis in front of her, speaking Mandarin to solicit passengers.
She smiled and shook her head in refusal at the taxi drivers who were picking up passengers, and the drivers who were obviously used to it were so used to it that they immediately scattered and ran away.
Yu Xiaoban glanced up at the clear sky washed by the shadow of the clouds, his soft lips curled, and then he squinted his eyes in a certain direction, and walked towards the outside of the airport with his slender legs against the light.
This time I came to Shanghai, the magic capital, not because of a temporary idea, but because I thought about it for a long time.
If there are a few people who are Su Xiaoxiao's best friends, then in addition to Li Leixiao, they must be counted as Yu Xiaoban.
The two of them have known each other since childhood, and coupled with the relationship between their parents, the relationship between the two is even closer.
Strictly speaking, before meeting Cheng Keshu, Su Xiaoxiao has always been competing with Yu Xiaoban, after all, in terms of learning, Yu Xiaoban is far better than Su Xiaoxiao, but in the year of the high school entrance examination, Yu Xiaoban performed abnormally in the exam, and finally chose to go to Guantang No. 7 Middle School, while Su Xiaoxiao went to No. 2 Middle School, the two had fewer opportunities to meet, and they also had their own circle of friends, so they gradually faded out of Su Xiaoxiao's world.
But if you really want to talk about it, Yu Xiaoban's relationship with Su Xiaoxiao has not diminished with time.
Yu Xiaoban is such a person, cold on the outside and hot on the inside, he likes to plan and then act, and because he is in an official family, he is much more precocious than his peers under the influence of his ears and eyes, and he often plays a similar role to his sister in Su's small world.
Su Jiedong's promotion scheduling was no secret from the beginning, especially Yu Xiaoban, who was the daughter of the county magistrate, knew the news that Su Xiaoxiao's father was going to be promoted to Shanghai. This is indeed a good way to stay away from the whirlpool of Pinghai County, and there are no worries when you stay out of the matter.
However, Su Jiedong's promotion meant that Su Xiaoxiao had no choice but to follow him to Shanghai.
So the fate of dropping out and transferring to another school is inevitable.
The day Su Xiaoxiao left, it happened to be Saturday morning.
In fact, at that time, Yu Xiaoban had already returned to the county from Guantang No. 7 Middle School. Later, she wanted to send Su Xiaoxiao, but after the two chatted on the phone, she gave up this plan, to be precise, Su Xiaoxiao didn't let her send it, she was waiting for the more important person - Su Xiaocan.
Yu Xiaoban is very good at taking care of people's thoughts, and she doesn't have much frustration, because she knows that at such a critical moment, if she is standing in her position, the practice is the same.
After all, feelings have never made any sense, and in Su Xiaoxiao's heart, Su Can is more important than Yu Xiaoban.
To be honest, she is very envious of Su Xiaoxiao, this girl never knows what sentimentality is, she has a poignant persistence, and she is staging a one-man show in a person's world, the more it makes people want to cry.
And Yu Xiaoban's view of love is different from Su Xiaoxiao, even if he likes someone again, if he is not interesting to himself, he will not be entangled anymore, he will only watch from afar.
Love is great, and it can allow one person to change his habits and even his way of life for the sake of another. But she thinks that if you love someone, you must be wronged, and evenly matched love is called perfect, but don't wronged yourself for a love you can't get, it's not worth it.
In the taxi, Yu Xiaoban put her hands on her lips, exhaled softly, and looked at the entire Pudong New Area of Shanghai from her perspective through the foggy glass window.
Looking across the river from Pudong Binjiang Avenue to the Puxi Bund International Complex, the long oil cedar highway almost crosses half of Shanghai, where the daily sunrise and sunset are under construction all the time, and the construction sites covered with green safety nets are almost endless. There is a long queue behind the endless flow of vehicles, where there is a legacy of the old Shanghai style, there are infinite scenery, bright and tidy buildings of all countries, there are old alleys, there are neat public houses, there are the Huangpu River to the east of the river, there are still rickshaws that still exist, and there is the latest and most trendy Shanghai-style culture.
The Huangpu River runs through Shanghai like a straight backbone, and the steel-poured bridges are full of seagulls, and the feathers fall all over the ground when they are startled by vehicles.
Everything here makes Yu Xiaoban, who has never set foot in that small city, have a different shock, compared to the small city of Pinghai that swallows light particles, time is slow, and you can see your dream when you look up, the economy here is developed at a high speed, and the pedestrians around you look hurried and more indifferent, coming and going, as if passing through at a speed like optical fiber.
Every day, the sunrise and sunset are as busy as ants, more like being pressed the fast-forward button, and the passage of time is accelerated several times, this is Shanghai, the place that she has fantasized about countless times in her mind, although she has only seen it on TV, and this trip to Shanghai has satisfied her fantasy.
couldn't help but think of Su Xiaoxiao, the girl who smiled in her eyes and made many people look across the sea of flowers, can she adapt to this kind of gentle life that is different from that of a small town?
The answer is yes, after many years, Su Xiaoxiao has been living in the magic capital of Shanghai, and a girl like her, covered with colorful clouds, can quickly adapt no matter where she is, and meet the most realistic life with the best attitude.
Even if she leaves the remote town in the interior and arrives at the new school of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, she is still the most dazzling center, an existence that ordinary people cannot reach.
The taxi stopped at the door of Lujiazui Apartment, No. 99 Dongxiu Road.
Under the camphor tree, the shade is falling. Yu Xiaoban dragged his luggage and stood on the side of the road, looking around, there were all kinds of high-end apartment office buildings, and it was indeed a good residential area.
