That year, Deng Yinan, who was in his prime, was in a choice in his life. He has already received admission letters from several universities in the United States, including the University of Chicago, which he longs for the most, and at the same time, several universities in China have also extended olive branches to him and invited him to be a lecturer, and Chen Xiaoyu's university is also one of them. His brilliance and brilliance, like a polished diamond, are about to shine brightly. But Deng Yinan had mixed feelings in his heart, mixed feelings, in addition to the excitement and confusion of going to the east of the ocean on the other side of the ocean, more nostalgia and anxiety for the girl in front of him. This girl is too indifferent, too peaceful, too obedient and silent, but Deng Yinan knows that it is the surface, there is a sharp light in her eyes, and there is also that imperceptible vigilance and alienation. Not just to herself, but to her classmates, to her friends, and even to anyone around her. Deng Yinan has always had doubts in her heart, when she first met Chen Xiaoyu, she was only a teenager, her life was as simple as a blank slate, except for hearing her father on the issue of "male and female style" A few marginal words of chasing the wind, her life was almost smooth sailing. He felt inexplicably distressed. After another half a month, Deng Yinan's senior brother in Chen Xiaoyu's school, there was a paper that needed Deng Yinan's help, and he had to invite him to dinner after it was finished, Deng Yinan refused, I don't know who suddenly remembered that Xiao Deng also had a sister in the school, and now he found an excuse, saying that he wanted to invite everyone to eat together. Xiao Jin of the Department of Economics is the contact person for this dinner, and of course he has to participate together. It was cold, Xiaoyu came back from the self-study classroom, sat at the head of the bed holding a dream of red mansions, smiled and listened to Xiaojin's lobbying, she hesitated and didn't want to go, they were all teachers from other departments, mixed with bad influence, Xiaojin was soft and hard, and finally gave an ultimatum: "If you don't go, you are selfish, the teacher is a teacher, but Teacher Deng is not your teacher." The hat was buttoned up wide, Chen Xiaoyu remembered her thin field theory, and muttered: "No one is fighting with you, it will be better sooner later, and you will covet it on the side." Xiao Jin smiled: "Yes, if you don't go, there is no silver here." Chen Xiaoyu smiled helplessly. The eldest sister in the dormitory also advised, "Xiaoyu, you can go, anyway, eat for nothing, and there is no less than a piece of meat." "I'm afraid of an extra piece of meat." Chen Xiaoyu smiled, "You are not afraid, spread the word, it is me Chen Xiaoyu who patted the teacher's ass, and it was the sycophant of the teacher of another department, so that the teachers of our department know, there are many rights and wrongs for no reason." "Saying so, I still went, and if I didn't go, I was even more hypocritical by the teachers. Fortunately, the teachers are more considerate of the impact, and the place where they eat is a little farther away from the school. "Xiaoyu, are you still adapting to college life?" With the senior brothers present, Deng Yinan had nothing to say, but there was no way to say everything he wanted to say. "Well, it's okay, anyway, there is not much homework, and everyone chooses a more relaxed lifestyle. Compared with the hardships of the third year of high school, there is a world of difference. Saying that, Chen Xiaoyu blinked mischievously and said implicitly. Deng Yinan smiled knowingly and sighed: "When I was a freshman, it was not so easy, I hurriedly finished "Capital", and then soaked in the library every day to do high math until I vomited. Someone patted him on the shoulder, "Who can compare with you, in addition to the library, self-study classroom, there are places where you Deng Yinan have been?" Even if you have a high IQ, you have to work so hard, the entire Department of Economics, since you have it, there is no other person's way to live, the professor is trained at every turn, just your IQ, you still want to be lazy, Deng Yinan, who is a freshman, is a hundred times smarter than you and works harder than you, we all harm you, and you don't even dare to talk openly about love, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, how do you think this wine should be drunk? As he spoke, he pushed the wine glass in front of Deng Yinan, "Come, come, come, let's have this glass." "The people at the table burst into laughter, and they all looked at Deng Yinan." Senior brother dares to love, this is a Hongmen banquet. Deng Yinan also smiled. Deng Yinan didn't shirk, raised his neck and dried the three cups in front of him. "Okay." There was another round of applause, and some people applauded. Chen Xiaoyu sat on the side and watched with a smile, unable to interject, Xiao Jin pulled her under the table, "How is Teacher Deng's drinking?" "I don't know, we haven't eaten together." Chen Xiaoyu shook her head. "Senior brother drinks so boldly, and he is also a simple person, a few of our buddies are so close to each other, you just come over, a few brothers can always do a career, and Mr. Chen is very important to you, are you afraid that you have no great future?" As he spoke, he talked about work again. Deng Yinan lowered his head, stroked the glass in his hand, and did not speak. "Do you still want to go to that US imperialism?" Seeing that he was smiling and silent, someone asked again. "What? Teacher Deng is going to the United States? Xiao Jin asked Chen Xiaoyu in a low voice. Xiaoyu nodded and replied vaguely, "Well, he's always had ideas. She said very lightly, but Deng Yinan still heard it, raised his eyes and looked at her, his eyes were slightly narrow, his eyes were deep, and there was a hint of playfulness. Yes," he said slowly, "I've always wanted to go to the United States, and I've set my goal since my junior year of high school, so I'm going to work so hard, and I really didn't mean to challenge you." "If you go to the United States, you have to go to a restaurant to help people serve dishes after class, even if it is a public assignment, that dollar is not enough for living expenses, and people's prices are high." "What's the matter with high prices, the most important thing is to look at the input and output, if the profit that can be brought is far greater than the input, then this pain is not a necessary investment?" "Of course, it is different to be able to go to the United States, the United States represents the forefront of Western economic schools......" "We Chinese hardworking and brave, when are we afraid of hardship?" Xiao Deng will never disgrace the Chinese at this point. Several senior brothers at the table were discussing this topic, and Chen Xiaoyu listened quietly, occasionally drinking Sprite in the cup.

"We discussed it for a long time, and Xiao Deng had to decide for himself." Someone summed it up. So they looked at Deng Yinan together, "Then you have already decided?" Deng Yinan was silent for a while, but his eyes looked at Chen Xiaoyu, paused, and he asked softly, "Xiaoyu, what do you think?" I don't know if he drank wine just now, his eyes were slightly red, his lips and teeth were entangled, and he seemed to have infinite meaning. Chen Xiaoyu was drinking water, suddenly choked, coughed, and Sprite's bubbles almost popped out of her nose. Everyone is looking at her, including Xiao Jin next to her. The surrounding qiē was like pressing the pause button.
