By the time Ren Pingsheng and his party left the table, most of the shops on the entire student street had been closed, and the rest were listlessly preparing to close.

Most of the boys in dormitory 107 were very drunk, supporting each other in twos and threes, walking on the streets that used to be full of people, stepping on the garbage swept by the shops and other students' vomit, facing the evening breeze that was still hot, and the effect of alcohol gradually rose to the head.

I don't know who proposed it first, and everyone suddenly sang in unison.

They sang the most popular among the students that year, among which Adu and Zhou Chuanxiong were the most popular, after all, their songs were mainly love songs, such as "Tearing the Night", "Dusk", etc., the melody and tone were relatively popular, everyone could sing a look, Jay Chou, who was very popular at the same time, there were not many of his songs that could be sung.

The profligate appearance of this group of people attracted the attention of a few pedestrians who occasionally passed by on the side of the road, and their singing voices were not excellent, but under the catalysis of the environment and alcohol, all of them had a loud timbre, which alarmed countless mandarin ducks in the woods on the side of the road.

Cheng Zhi and Chang Yuan sang while imitating the singer from time to time to pose a few poses, even Lin Lisong, who was usually restrained, threw off his arms and strode forward, Zeng Rui even took out her training results in the school dance team and danced a few beautiful dance steps in the middle of the road.

Ren Pingsheng didn't join in the excitement, in order not to let others think that he was unsociable, he was a few steps behind, walking slowly behind the large army, still thinking about his business plan.

Walking and walking, Ren Pingsheng found that there was one more person beside him, and Shi Xiaolian fell behind at some point, and happened to come together with him.

"I'm walking slower and can't catch up with them. Shi Xiaolian seemed to be explaining something.

In the night, her facial features were much darker, much more durable than before, and her white and neat teeth were very conspicuous, smiling at him.

"It's okay, stay away from them, and you won't be treated as crazy by others. Ren Pingsheng laughed.

As if to verify Ren Pingsheng's words, Cheng Zhi flew up at this time, kicked the empty cans on the ground into the air like a goal, and almost hit a retired old man who looked like a teacher when he fell, attracting a reprimand from the old man.

Shi Xiaolian and Ren Pingsheng glanced at each other, and they couldn't help laughing.

This little episode allowed a kind of tacit understanding to be established between the two parties, and the two of them talked as they walked, becoming much more natural, and there was something inexplicable flowing in the air.

"Xiao Lian, I don't know what you're going to do after graduation?" Ren Pingsheng asked casually.

"My family wanted me to find a stable job and get married and have children as soon as possible. Shi Xiaolian's eyes became ethereal, she shook her head and said:

"But I think that when people are young, they should think more about others, and do something that is beneficial to society and mankind, and I just want to go to remote and difficult places now, where there are still many poor people who need help. ”

Shi Xiaolian's words surprised Ren Pingsheng, and he understood for the first time that this thin girl beside him, who was not good-looking, actually had such lofty ideals hidden in her ordinary body, which made Ren Pingsheng look at her with admiration.

"Your idea is very good, but you are a girl, and the outside world is very dangerous, so you must pay attention to safety. ”

"Well, don't worry, I have signed a contract with the government of Xishuangbanna Tai Autonomous Prefecture to support teaching, and there will be many friends who will go to serve the frontier together, and I heard that the Thai people are very simple, kind, and safe. ”

Shi Xiaolian's words revealed maturity beyond her age, which shows that she has been planning this matter for a long time, and it is not an impulsive decision.

"Well, when are you going to go? Ren Pingsheng was a little embarrassed and had nothing to say.

"I've booked my tickets for tomorrow morning's train. Shi Xiaolian lowered her head and said, there was some resentment in her voice.

"Need help, I can send you. Ren Pingsheng's answer, he himself sounded insincere, Shi Xiaolian naturally wouldn't fail to hear it, she politely declined.

Then, neither of them knew what to say, and could only listen to the singing and footsteps of the large army in front of them, and there was an awkward silence in the air.

"Pingsheng-" Shi Xiaolian spoke first, her voice suddenly became very strange, and a slight tremor could be heard.

"Huh?" Ren Pingsheng didn't dare to look into her eyes, he understood Shi Xiaolian's thoughts very well, but he was not easy to answer the other party, for fear that if he said something wrong, it would not end well.

Ren Pingsheng stopped, feeling a pair of arms around him from his waist, and then a slender but warm body leaned on his back, and through the thin summer clothes, he could feel the girl's elastic skin, as well as Shi Xiaolian's violent heartbeat at the moment.

"Don't move, let me hold it for a while, okay? ”

Shi Xiaolian muttered to herself, her voice as fragile as a porcelain vase that could be broken at any moment.

Ren Pingsheng looked up to the sky and sighed, he naturally would not refuse, and he could not refuse.

As an old man with more than ten years of emotional experience, how could he not understand the little girl's thoughts, Shi Xiaolian's series of performances since that night of KTV, he has long put his love for Ren Pingsheng on his face, even the boys in the 107 dormitory know things, how could Ren Pingsheng not see it.

The intersection between Ren Pingsheng and Shi Xiaolian originated from an elective course they took together in the first semester of their sophomore year, and a chance opportunity allowed the two to sit together, only to find out that Shi Xiaolian is a senior literature lover, especially fanatically fond of "Dream of Red Mansions".

It just so happens that Ren Pingsheng is a person who has no books and no reading, and talking about the allusions and metaphors of "Dream of Red Mansions" is even more straightforward, which makes Shi Xiaolian very much appreciative of him and his bosom friend.

The two had a little relationship after that, most of the time Shi Xiaolian took the initiative, she would regularly share the book she was reading with Ren Pingsheng, and then discuss the content and experience of the book with each other, but it was only that.

As Ren Pingsheng's relationship with Zuo Xiaoxiao deepened, Shi Xiaolian took less and less time in his life, perhaps realizing that the gap between himself and Zuo Xiaoxiao was too big, Shi Xiaolian silently alienated Ren Pingsheng.

Until the party before graduating from college, Ren Pingsheng was drunk and vomited after being broken up by Zuo Xiaoxiao, and Shi Xiaolian accompanied her from beginning to end, which made her feelings that she had suppressed for three years sprout again.

But Ren Pingsheng's performance repeatedly reminded Shi Xiaolian that this man did not treat himself as an object that he could fall in love with, even after Zuo Xiaoxiao left.

The pain of unrequited love wrapped around Shi Xiaolian like a vine, making her suffer from gains and losses, and she was restless in sleep, she could have left two days ago, but she still had a thought in her heart, wanting to see Ren Pingsheng again before leaving.

At this time, Zeng Rui came forward to invite her to participate in the parting wine of the 107 dormitory, and she ran out of the dormitory, who had always rarely drunk, and accompanied them until midnight, and then found the opportunity to be alone with Ren Pingsheng.

Under the instigation of Zeng Rui, the encouragement of alcohol, and the cover of the night, Shi Xiaolian finally felt his body temperature behind this man, listened to his heartbeat, and confided in him the emotions he had buried for so many years.

After listening to the heartfelt confession of the girl behind her, Ren Pingsheng didn't know what to do, Shi Xiaolian's love was undoubtedly innocent and selfless, but because of this, he couldn't accept it easily, or give her an illusory promise.

He didn't know what would happen to Ren Pingsheng in his previous life, but Ren Pingsheng, as a traverser, was essentially an old man full of ambition and desire.

His heart has long been occupied by a series of intricate and deliberate schemes, except for Zuo Xiaoxiao, who has never forgotten for two lifetimes, it is difficult for him to leave any space for other women.

"Xiao Lian, I ......" Ren Pingsheng turned around, he was about to speak, Shi Xiaolian had already desperately shook his head and refused.

"No, don't say it, don't say it. ”

Shi Xiaolian looked at him very seriously, his eyes were unexpectedly firm and powerful.

"I know that, I just don't want to hear it with my own ears. ”

"Today I am very happy, I have said all the words that I have hidden for a long time, I am satisfied, I am satisfied. Shi Xiaolian said word by word, as if every word was gold, and her eyes were already covered with a layer of moisture.

"Little mercy!

Ren Pingsheng was about to say something, but was interrupted by Zeng Rui who came from afar, she had been encouraging Shi Xiaolian at the wine table before, encouraging her to seize this last opportunity to confess to Ren Pingsheng, who had always been secretly in love.

But after walking for a while, he found that the two of them were too far behind the big army, and they couldn't even see the figures, Zeng Rui was afraid that something would happen to Shi Xiaolian, so he hurriedly ran back to find them.

Shi Xiaolian hurriedly let go of her arms, turned her face to wipe the tears on her face, and by the time Zeng Rui walked in front of her, she had returned to her usual quiet and elegant appearance, but the corners of her eyes were slightly red.

Zeng Rui looked at Shi Xiaolian again and again, and said with some suspicion: "Ren Pingsheng, you didn't bully our Xiaolian, right?"

"Nope. Ren Pingsheng and Shi Xiaolian said in unison.

Their actions made Zeng Rui even more interested, she showed an expression on her face, and said in the tone of a person who came over: "Ren Pingsheng, if you do anything bad to Xiao Lian, I can't spare you." ”

"I assure the organization that we will resolutely carry out Comrade Zeng Rui's instructions. Ren Pingsheng grabbed his hair, made a gesture at the mercy of him, and smiled.

"Hmph, that's like a word. Zeng Rui was very satisfied with Ren Pingsheng's performance and smiled with his nose.

"Xiaorui, let's keep up with the big army, otherwise they will be worried and will come looking for them. Shi Xiaolian also came out to relieve the siege at this time, the two of them held hands and walked forward intimately, and Ren Pingsheng naturally followed.

When Ren Pingsheng and they caught up with the large army, the chorus just entered the climax stage, Chang Yuan shook his head like a rock star, and played a guitar that did not exist in his hand, Cheng Zhi imitated Michael Jackson's moon walk, sliding on the rough oil road, Zhang Wenwu and Lin Lisong stood aside and beat the beat with their palms, and they sang Wu Bai's "Evening Wind".

The breeze came slowly, drunk and hazy, in this situation, Ren Pingsheng and others couldn't help but join the team and sang together.

Just because we don't have a tomorrow

Just when the two of us were just in front of us

Even when I never left

It still fills your heart

Your eyes are full of anticipation

My heart is full of the future

Love and love are in the air

Finding that the feeling is gone

Silently, you refuse to speak

Just look down and look for a kind of relief

You are my favorite

How could I not understand

Bygone years have turned into harm

I'm also more familiar with a lot of helplessness

I don't want to see your hazy teary eyes

I'm the night wind

Blow slowly and send gently

You will go on the road of life
