In the lobby on the first floor of the Minzu Hotel, Zhang Yi sat quietly in the corner by the window, staring at the green nursery outside, her eyebrows were slightly bent, as if she was smiling, as if she was thinking about her heart, and it happened to be happy.

Just sent Cheng Jing away, the two good friends who have been playing since childhood chatted for less than twenty minutes, it was almost twelve o'clock in front of them, Cheng Jing insisted on leaving, obviously to make independent space for Zhang Yi and Xu Hui, Zhang Yi had no choice but to follow her, but it was a pity that this saw that she was in such a hurry.

She has an English version of "Jane Eyre" in her hand, not to read and pass the time, but a tool to suppress the tension in her heart, after all, she hasn't seen each other for more than a year, and she doesn't know what kind of change Xu Hui has.

The usual correspondence is just an exchange of hearts and minds, and face-to-face communication and heartfelt complaints are scenes that only exist in countless dreams, but the more such dreams, the more illusory the clear image of Xu Hui in his mind, Zhang Yi was faintly scared, and he didn't know why this happened.

This guy's letter has never mentioned anything about literature and the literary club, and I am afraid that he has long left this complex behind, is there no soil for the growth of the 19th Middle School?

Perhaps only after meeting and chatting can we truly feel Xu Hui's current state of mind. In this regard, Zhang Yi is quite worried, worried that Xu Hui has changed and has forgotten her original intention, but in terms of feelings, she has confidence in Xu Hui, this confidence comes from her personal feelings since she met, which is a kind of anxiety and contradiction that cannot be said clearly.

Xu Hui often talked about in his letters, the brothers and new classmates in those compounds are very interesting, I can't imagine that Xie Haiqing and Xue Yongjun have become small bosses, Hu Lin's funny and persistent people can't help but laugh, and that guy named Fu Jianping actually has been a helper......? These can make Zhang Yi unconsciously think of the days in Xiping.

In fact, among all the memories, the scene of the outing on Jinyintan is the most unforgettable for Zhang Yi, at such an ignorant age, Xu Hui picked up a stone and smashed the gangster's face like crazy in order to protect her, every time she thought of it, there was a trace of nervousness, a trace of sweetness, and a trace of pride, maybe since then, she has had that hazy feeling towards Xu Hui.

I don't know if Xu Hui is still as impulsive as before? Thinking of the scene when he followed the Black Bull group to the attached middle school to fight, Zhang Yi couldn't help but sweat for him, but then relieved himself, maybe after a year of high school life, Xu Hui had already learned how to control his emotions.

Time flies, Cangtian has changed dramatically, and people are growing up in constant change, she or Xu Hui's growth must be chopping waves and moving forward bravely, Zhang Yi cheered herself up, but unconsciously looked at the time, it was already twelve o'clock at noon.

Or should you do something, the helplessness of waiting forced Zhang Yi to close the book and stand up, she walked out of the hotel and walked around the nursery, the air was full of familiar smells, intoxicating and aftertaste, in fact, she had this feeling as soon as she got off the train, after all, for her, only the land of Xiping could be called her homeland.

Zhang Yi, who was in a slightly calmer mood, returned to the lobby again, the minute hand of the clock on the wall had pointed to twelve twenty o'clock, Xu Hui should be there, Zhang Yi began to be nervous inexplicably, so he forced himself to pick up the book at hand and read it aloud in a low voice.

"Zhang Yi, why are you sitting here alone?" A tall and handsome boy had just come down from the upper floor, and at a glance he saw Zhang Yi sitting by the window, or he had been paying attention to her for a long time.

"I just met a former classmate, and I sat here and read a book for a while. Zhang Yi was a little uncomfortable, this boy's name is Tian Hongbin, he is from the same school, the same grade, I didn't know him before, and I attended a classmate's birthday party together in the first semester of high school before I gradually became familiar with it.

Later, Tian Hongbin often came to the class, looking for opportunities to chat with Zhang Yi, and invited Zhang Yi to participate in various gatherings and outings through classmates who were familiar with him. Zhang Yi naturally knew about the other party's various actions, and unconsciously became defensive, and always kept a distance from Tian Hongbin.

Tian Hongbin also seemed to have a sense, and quickly slowed down the pace of pursuing Zhang Yi, and every time he appeared after that, he always maintained the humble and polite appearance of a good friend, and never acted out of line, he didn't have a score in his heart, so he didn't dare to confess easily until he was absolutely sure.

This practice confused Zhang Yi, she laughed at herself for being too sensitive, but after she gradually relaxed her guard, she was surprised to find that Tian Hongbin also signed up for the summer camp in the west, I don't know if it was a coincidence, but Zhang Yi always felt weird. So I rarely talked to each other along the way, and I tried to avoid being alone with Tian Hongbin.

"I almost forgot, your hometown is Xiping, if it weren't for the time constraints, I really want to ask you to be a guide and take a good look at this northwest pearl. ”

"Yes, I can't walk around when I return to my hometown, and I'm quite helpless. ”

"Let's go up and rest, the lunch break is very short, and we will gather at 1:10. Tian Hongbin's words were full of concern.

"It doesn't matter, I don't have a nap habit. Zhang Yi replied lightly, and the meaning of rejecting people thousands of miles away gradually appeared in the semantics.

But Tian Hongbin didn't seem to care, or didn't think deeply, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the chair opposite the coffee table, "Me too, can I sit?"

Zhang Yi was a little embarrassed in her anxiety, obviously she didn't have such mental preparation, and Xu Hui could appear at any time, she didn't want any accidents for the two to reunite for a short time. But classmates and friends don't seem to be stiff in refusal, so they nodded in hesitation, but their behavior was much colder, and they opened the book and read it carefully, as if the other party didn't exist.

After Tian Hongbin sat down, he looked left and right, obviously thinking that he had nothing to say, and he didn't care about Zhang Yi's attitude, she took the train all the way, she was already used to this.

"I heard from the teacher who led the team, in the afternoon, we will take a six-hour long-distance bus to Zanmaduo in Tibetan areas to participate in the local friendship party, have you been to that place?"

"Nope. Zhang Yi only raised his head slightly.

"I've never been to the prairie, and I've heard that there are no people in that place for more than ten miles, is it really fake?"

Zhang Yi has been to his family a few times, not to mention more than ten miles, the deeper he goes to the northwest, especially into the edge of the alpine meadow, there is no human figure for dozens or hundreds of miles. That feeling of vastness, eternity and expansiveness, if you don't immerse yourself in the scene, you can't really experience it.

But at this moment, Zhang Yi didn't want to explain so much, afraid that as soon as she started talking, the other party would be endless, so she shook her head very unwillingly, and then continued to read her book. At the same time, I was also anxious, how could Xu Hui do this, it was almost half past twelve, could it be that he would encounter something urgent?

At this time, the unlucky Xu Hui was running with his life, covered in blood, sloppy, like a fugitive who had just run out, before a life and death adventure, he was thrown into a lot, but he had no time to take care of it, he had to find the nearest bus stop, otherwise he would really miss this meeting.

Time goes back to ten minutes ago, Xu Hui was still on the motorcycle, he was secretly accumulating strength, although his arms were held by Zhao Fu deadly, but the breathing in his chest became more and more smooth, indicating that the injured body finally relieved, and the pain in the lower abdomen and side ribs was also greatly relieved, so he had a very risky idea, that is, once the motorcycle slowed down, he would find an opportunity to jump out of the car.

is almost an adult, Xu Hui has a clear understanding of the danger of this practice, and there may be a big problem even with Zhao Fu at that time, but he can't manage it so much now, he is disturbed by this bastard, the agreed time has long passed, if he can't see Zhang Yi, this regret will not be able to make up, and maybe he will chop Zhao Fu with a knife at that time.

Shuijing Lane is far away, located in the west of the city, Xu Hui has been there once, and remembers that there is a small free market at the entrance of that alley, although the scale is limited, but it is very lively, and he is not afraid that the motorcycle will not slow down when the time comes, this is probably the only chance he can escape.

The arrogant Zhao Fu naturally didn't know what Xu Hui was thinking, seeing that Xiao Lao Qiyi was honest all the way, he didn't struggle at all, and the complexion on his face was also very bad, and he couldn't pull a few pieces, so he regretted that he was too heavy just now, and he didn't hurt anything, right?

Just thinking like this, I can already see the intersection of Shuijing Lane in front of me, the small free market is still there, it is very lively, there are many people, it is bustling, and motorcycles are forced to slow down.

Seeing that the speed of the car was getting slower and slower, which was not the same as the situation just now, Xu Hui secretly said that the opportunity came, as if Zhao Fu was busy looking at the moment, and the strength of his fingers was not as great as at the beginning, so his head fell back violently, and the back of his head hit Zhao Fu's nose hard.

Poor Zhao Fu's nose, today must be with Xu Hui, the second blow is more serious than the first, Zhao Fu's tears of pain flowed, after the strange scream, he subconsciously let go to cover his nose, Xu Hui took the opportunity to break free, calf and waist at the same time, the power accumulated in the secret should not be underestimated, the body broke away from the motorcycle at once, and fell sideways to the side of the road.

Although the motorcycle has slowed down at this time, it also has a speed of twenty or thirty yards, which is a little faster than the normal speed of the bicycle, although Xu Hui's estimation of the risk is very sufficient, but he has never done this kind of thing in his life, so he was thrown very badly, and rolled over one after another with inertia, fortunately it was the shoulder that hit the ground first, otherwise he would not have been able to get up at all.

Zhao Fu shouted to stop, but it was not necessary for him to shout, and the clever ghost also saw Xu Hui jumping out of the car, his mind froze for a moment, and then he panicked, and was yelled at by Zhao Fu again, but he staggered towards the pile of people in front.

"I'm a grass mud horse!" Zhao Fu hurriedly stretched out his hand and slapped the back of the head of the clever ghost in front of him, the young man was almost not beaten stupid, but fortunately he finally stopped, nothing big happened, and then jumped out of the car to see that Xu Hui had run away like a rabbit.

"Chase Lao Tzu!" Zhao Fu ordered the clever ghost to turn around, and he jumped into the back seat of the car again, but he couldn't walk, an old man who was hit by the front wheel of the motorcycle on the thigh desperately grabbed the handlebar, and his body was shaking and wanted to fall, but his voice was very loud, "Hit someone, hit someone, don't you want to go!"

"Uncle Grass Mud!" Zhao Fuqi shouted, jumped out of the car again, and stretched out his hand to point at the clever ghost, "Damn, stupid like a pig! After saying that, he couldn't control much, so he chased after him.

Following the direction of Xu Hui's escape, Zhao Fu chased out two streets in one go, but he didn't see the little rabbit cub at all, and he could only give up with hatred.

"It's almost twelve fifty, let's go upstairs and pack our bags. Tian Hongbin, who had been looking for several topics one after another, stood up a little dejected, but instead of getting a decent response from Zhang Yi, he felt the other party's increasingly cold atmosphere, and he was very depressed all of a sudden.

Zhang Yi was shocked when she heard this, it was almost one o'clock, what was wrong with Xu Hui? Could it be that he didn't want to come to meet, it was impossible, he was obviously very happy when he replied, but what was the reason?

Zhang Yi, who was extremely anxious, had no time to pay attention to Tian Hongbin, who was standing on the side, she stood up suddenly, bypassed the small coffee table, and walked quickly to the outside of the hotel lobby.

"Hey, hey, Zhang Yi, why are you going?" Tian Hongbin was very surprised by Zhang Yi's actions, and hurriedly trotted to follow, "It's about to be assembled, and the teacher will ...... when the time comes."

Before he finished speaking, Tian Hongbin ushered in Zhang Yi's cold gaze, "I have something to do, you can go back first." ”

Tian Hongbin was stunned for a moment, in his memory, this was the first time Zhang Yi looked at him with such eyes, irritability with a trace of disgust made him uncomfortable, and he reluctantly stopped, watching the other party walk through the nursery in front of the door and walk towards the outside of the hotel, the beautiful back still made him excited, but at this time he couldn't muster a little courage to catch up again.

Zhang Yi disappeared in a flash at the gate outside the hotel, and Tian Hongbin, who had been stunned for a long time, could only stomp his feet fiercely and turned around and went upstairs.

At this time, Xu Hui was already in sight, he finally succeeded in getting rid of Zhao Fu, and took a bus to the Minzu Hotel on the Communist Youth League Road, but the anxiety was indeed burning his chest like a flame, and he almost couldn't help but scold the traffic lights at every intersection like a broken mouth, I hope it will be too late.

The lobby of the Minzu Hotel suddenly became lively, and there were constantly members of the summer camp who came down from the upper floor with their luggage, everyone talked and laughed, or gathered together in twos and threes, or visited the Xiping specialties, handicrafts and historical and cultural propaganda boards displayed in the lobby. Waiting for the team leader teacher and the long-distance bus, they are about to go to Tibet to see the mysterious snowy plateau, and everyone's faces are full of expectation and joy.

Only Tian Hongbin and the other girl were quite different, one was pacing back and forth restlessly, the other was standing in front of the glass door and looking around, the time to gather was about to come, but Zhang Yi never returned, and he didn't know what to say when he saw the team leader for a while.

Fortunately, when the bus slowly drove into the Minzu Hotel, Zhang Yi's figure finally appeared, looking very gloomy and desolate, her pace was very slow, and her eyes were full of disappointment and inaction.

The girl who was traveling with Zhang Yi quickly greeted her, "Where are you going, hurry up and get your luggage, I'll stuff it in your bag for you, and then pack it slowly on the way." ”

Zhang Yi nodded indifferently, reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, lowered his head and walked into the lobby quickly.

Several people who were familiar with Zhang Yi were surprised, and during the short lunch break, I didn't know what sad things Zhang Yi had encountered, and there were even partners who knew Tian Hongbin well, and they immediately turned their suspicious and speculative eyes to the handsome guy who was also surprised.

Tian Hongbin, who was confused, suddenly faintly guessed the reason for Zhang Yi's abnormal mood, but he didn't dare to think deeply, for fear that after guessing, he would have no oil to find hardship, he would rather believe that Zhang Yi returned to his homeland, but he was sad because he didn't have time to take a look, of course, there was a voice in his head that reminded him repeatedly, such an idea was really fooling the ghost.

The group of young people from different middle schools in Beijing cheered, only Zhang Yi silently followed at the end of the team, her eyes were red and swollen at the moment, and she obviously cried hard when she went back to the room to get her luggage.

The kind partner gave her a back window seat to let her look at the scenery and stabilize her mood, but when the bus started, Zhang Yi's tears couldn't stop flowing again.

At this time, a figure appeared at the door of the hotel, crossed his waist, gasping for breath, soaked with sweat, his body was dirty, the white shirt almost became a gray shirt, and there were blood stains everywhere, and there were two blood-stained hula holes at the knees of jeans, he was staring at a pair of big eyes, anxiously and full of relief looking at the bus, specially, finally arrived!

Xu Hui even saw Zhang Yi by the window of the back seat, although it was just a silhouette, but it was also the one she in countless dreams, and he couldn't care much about it in a hurry, and he stretched out his arms to jump on his feet.

"Hey, look at that guy. The companion carefully poked Zhang Yi with his hand, not to say that it was her, and half of the car also saw this strange young man. Zhang Yi, who was thinking about his thoughts, subconsciously turned his head to look out the window, and suddenly felt like an electric shock, and he fell to the bottom...... But how did it come to be like this?

"He seems to be calling you, your friend?" The gossip of his companion was uplifted, and he immediately thought of the reason why Zhang Yi went out just now, I am afraid that it was just for the strange guy in front of him, why did he make such a mess?

Zhang Yi nodded generously, she waved at Xu Hui through the window, but at the same time, she became anxious, and she didn't know how to tell the team leader that the time to set off had come, and she couldn't delay the time of the whole team because of personal matters.

"Teacher!" The companion next to him was enthusiastic and bold, raising his hand high, "Zhang Yi's friend is late, can you give her some time?"

The teacher who led the team came from the front row, she looked at Zhang Yi, and then looked at Xu Hui who kept waving out the window, the teacher was a middle-aged woman, and people who came over knew what the situation was at a glance, I was afraid that such a scene could also evoke memories of her youth, so she looked at Zhang Yi with a smile, "Is it your friend outside?"

Zhang Yi nodded, a little shy, but very firm.

"Let's go down and say a few words, not too long. ”

Outside the car, the two looked at each other, Xu Hui smiled stupidly, Zhang Yi too, at this moment, all explanations are superfluous, when Zhang Yi couldn't help but open her arms to hug Xu Hui, the car resounded with a wave of applause, only Tian Hongbin's face was suddenly more ugly than a bitter melon.
