In the past, all good and unpleasant things were like a dream, and after waking up from the dream, everyone seemed to be getting farther and farther away, and it would only get farther and farther away.

Time is a skyscraper, put everyone into a different grid, sometimes you will pass by someone else's grid, sometimes someone else will pass by yours, but they are just passers-by, you always exist only in your grid, you have your things to do, you have your tasks to complete.

Your cubicle is your world.

At the end of her junior year, Qiao Jinghui ended her three-year college life with excellent grades, and at the same time, she also made an unexpected decision - to join the army.

She decided to take a break from school to join the army for a year before returning to her senior year.

Everyone didn't expect her to make such a move, although this not only has a subsidy but also a certain credit policy, but Qiao Jinghui is not going for those things at all: "I just feel that I am not interested in staying in school and doing the same thing all day long, and I have no intention of studying, so I want to go out and be quiet, and joining the army is just right to exercise." ”

"You want to go out and be quiet, and you can't be quiet for so long during the summer vacation?"

Xiaoqi shook her head at Su Ling, although she also wanted Qiao Jinghui to stay with them for her senior year and graduate together, but since she had her own choice, and it seemed to have been well thought out, then let her go, not to mention that she was becoming more and more silent now, and it was good to have experience in the army.

Hua Wen stood aside and didn't speak, Qiao Jinghui knew that everyone was uncomfortable, so she tried her best to liven up the atmosphere: "It's okay!" When I come back, I will be a real female man with martial arts and strong body, and when the time comes, I will see who dares to bully you, even your boyfriend! ”

Xiaoqi smiled and said, "Then do you want to consider finding a boyfriend from the army?" ”

"Don't, if you're not careful, you're a hidden violent maniac, what if you commit domestic violence to me? And there are a lot of dragons and snakes in it, I'm afraid I can't recognize people clearly. ”

"Come less, you're just making excuses not to find a boyfriend!" Su Ling complained.

Qiao Jinghui counterattacked: "Still talking about me, don't you don't have a boyfriend yourself?" ”

"I'm in poor condition! Why don't you look for it if your conditions are so good? Since Qiao Jinghui grew long hair and put on ordinary girls' clothes, her demeanor has overshadowed the two people in the dormitory except for Hua Wen.

Qiao Jinghui: "Who is the best in our dormitory......"

The three of them turned their eyes to Hua Wen, but Hua Wen seemed to be busy with something and didn't have time to pay attention to their ridicule.

Su Ling said again: "When you enter the army, your hair will be cut again, isn't it a pity?" ”

"It's okay, people say that the front is not too eyebrows, the back is not more than the shoulders, the ears are exposed, and it can't be cut much, and it won't be shorter than my previous short hair."

"That person also has requirements for eyesight!"

"I'm going to have vision surgery soon, as long as my vision is around 100 degrees, it's fine."

"Why did you get yourself to a place with that kind of condition, I couldn't see you for a whole year, and when you came back, we all graduated and left, and I don't know when we will meet again." Saying that, Su Ling was a little choked, not to mention that Xiaoqi may not stay in Sichuan, even if everyone stays in Sichuan, they may not be able to see each other at any time, after all, Sichuan is still so big.

Qiao Jinghui understands that just like her and Cheng Yang, although they have been in Chengdu since they went to college, they have not seen each other often, one of them is in Chengdu and the other is in Chengdu, and they don't even take the car home together - the nearest means of transportation are different.

She didn't know how to comfort her, so she stopped talking.

There was a long silence in the bedroom, but it was Xiaoqi who broke the sad silence: "Let's go out for a hot pot together, call Xuejuan and Xiaotang." ”

Su Ling said while trying to suppress his sadness: "Yes, anyway, the two of them have been fine lately, I'll go over and ask." So he fled from the "land of right and wrong."

Hua Wen said, "I'll make a reservation, which one do you want to eat?" ”

Qiao Jinghui didn't have any opinions, Xiaoqi said: "Just where we all ate for the first time, this may also be the last time in our college career that six people will eat hot pot at the same hot pot restaurant." ”

I remember the first time when everyone was smiling and happy, but now it seems that someone is about to leave the scene temporarily in the blink of an eye, and when she returns, the original person is long gone.

Su Ling came back after a while, and when she came back, Hua Wen found that her eyes were red, knowing that she had cried in the past, but this time she didn't say anything, only patted her shoulder lightly, and said, "How is it?" The seats were already booked, and it was the hot pot restaurant that the six of us went to for the first time. ”

Su Ling nodded and replied succinctly, "They said they were free." ”

"It's tonight, isn't it? It just so happens that now that the exams are all over, there is no need to review. "Xiaoqi tried to turn everyone's attention to the matter of eating.

Hua Wen nodded, and Su Ling said, "I'll tell them on QQ later, I'll go wash my hair, and you guys should clean up quickly, it's past 4 o'clock now." ”

"Hui, do you want to sleep for a while, anyway, we didn't go out until 6 o'clock, and your eye circles are already very heavy." I don't know why, Qiao Jinghui began to study hard since her sophomore year, squeezing out a lot of time every day to study every course, and she was about to catch up with small chess at night, but instead of playing games, she read books, this study habit has continued until now, and she still read prose last night in the middle of the night.

Qiao Jinghui smiled at Hua Wen: "I'll go to the library first, return the book, it's almost due." As he spoke, he raised a few books in his hand, then opened the door and walked out.

Closing the door, Qiao Jinghui leaned weakly against the dirty wall, lowered her head and exhaled a long breath, inside the door was the long and short sighs of Xiaoqi and Hua Wen and the sound of Su Ling washing her hair. From now on, all this is about to change.

After a few seconds, Qiao Jinghui raised her head, her eyes were firm, and she moved forward steadily.

In the evening, everyone went to the hot pot restaurant as promised, and sat at the table after sandwiching the dishes as usual, except for the time when Xiaotang fell out of love, they never drank when they came out to eat hot pot, this time Su Ling asked the waiter for a whole beer, and it was scary to look at it at his feet.

Finally the oil boiled, Qiao Jinghui put the hairy belly and the fat cow down, Su Ling began to skillfully open the beer bottle, Hua Wen sat next to her and helped her hand the cup, and Xuejuan, who was sitting on the other side of her, helped hand the cup.

Look at this posture, it looks like it's about getting her drunk!

"I ...... Isn't it okay to drink it? Qiao Jinghui raised her hand weakly.

"No way!" The other five said in unison,

I've spared her every time in the past, but this time it's definitely not going to work! What does it matter if you are drunk, anyway, it is not for nothing that people who have known each other in the past three years have been here, and when the time comes, someone will naturally come to answer a phone call.

The protest was ineffective, Qiao Jinghui had to carefully take the wine glass that was about to overflow, and everyone's cup was full, representing everyone's determination not to get drunk and not return.

Su Ling first raised his glass: "Everyone will be ready to go home in a few days, and it will be a month before we meet again, but there is one person who will not be able to return to school until a year later." Everyone lowered their heads silently, "To be honest, I really can't bear it, but I can't keep it." ”

It's going to rain and the mother is going to get married, not to mention that according to her temperament, no one can stop her from leaving, Xiaotang said: "Alas, sooner or later, there will be such a day, but Jinghui is a little earlier, let's treat her as if she is going to experience life." ”

Xuejuan nodded: "Let's do it." ”

The six wine glasses were raised together, and the hops from the collision were just sprinkled in the pot, but no one cared whether the splashed oil burned them or not, although this friendship accumulated in the tempering of time was nothing in the long river of time, but it really happened to each of them, so even if time forgets, they will not forget each other.

Everyone should have an unforgettable relationship, this relationship can not be love, it can not be family affection, but there must be a friendship, because in your friendship there is no one responsible for whom, there is only one person's trust, dependence, love, and commitment to another person.

It's like having this conversation:

A: "I'm sorry I took advantage of you. ”

B: "It's okay, isn't that what my friends use?" ”

Friends use each other without malice, without asking for anything in return, and not afraid of sacrifice, Qiao Jinghui is very fortunate that she can have such a group of friends.

After three rounds of drinking, everyone was drunk, Qiao Jinghui was powerless to parry after three glasses in a row, so she had to beg everyone to allow her to take a sip every time, anyway, she was going to be drunk, if she got drunk as soon as she came, who would accompany them to drink? So everyone reluctantly agreed.

When only half of the dishes in the pot were eaten, Xiaotang and Hua Wen were already drunk, and they could only barely keep sitting upright, and they couldn't even do the dishes, Su Ling and Xuejuan were still pouring wine, and Xiaoqi was eating the vegetables, thinking that they would eat more to cushion their stomachs, so that they wouldn't get drunk so quickly, Qiao Jinghui was dizzy, and had to ask the waiter for an ice cream sober up.

The wine has been poured, the person is slightly drunk, Xuejuan raised the wine glass to Qiao Jinghui: "Jinghui, we haven't had much other communication in the past three years, it's common for me to ask you to help you point out, Xiaotang is not timid, you are bold, and you can also call your own name and then pinch your throat and answer me in a girl's voice." ”

Qiao Jinghui smiled, who told her to have a thick voice and a low voice? Every time she answered her own arrival, it was a deep "to", so it was natural to help Xuejuan answer with a sharp voice, anyway, the person who clicked on it would not look at the source of the sound.

"Before, my first impression of you was, hey, how can this woman dress like a man, and the second impression is, well, it's not bad, a little handsome." Xuejuan smiled "hehe", "But ah, in fact, you have the best hair in your long hair, you see how good you are now, beautiful and figured, do you know how many crushes you have in our class?" ”

Qiao Jinghui held the ice cream in one hand and supported her head in the other, and said with a smile: "You say that I am handsome, I agree, if you want to say that someone has a crush on me, I don't want to hear such a thing." ”

Su Ling said, "Why don't you want to hear it? You don't want to hear me, Xuejuan, you say, who in our class likes her? ”

Xuejuan pursed her lips, folded her fingers, thought for a while, and said, "Hmm...... I guess there are three. ”

"I asked who it was, didn't I ask how many, I was confused, right?"

Su Ling patted Xuejuan, Xuejuan burped weakly, and then said, "Oh, aren't they just those few?" Every time there is a chat in the class group, there are only a few people who often talk to each other.,Isn't it the one who has a girlfriend? ”

Xiao Qi nodded casually: "However, those three are all average heights." ”

"That's right."

"But the height of a soldier must not be short, Jinghui, you can consider finding one there."

Qiao Jinghui munched on the ice cream speechlessly: "Xiaoqi, if you were as tall as me, would you still choose Wang Xiaoxi?" ”

"Yes!"

Qiao Jinghui shrugged: "Look, as long as it's good for you, and then you like it, height is not a problem." ”

Xiaoqi was speechless, and Xuejuan said, "So you like one of them?" ”

Qiao Jinghui: "...... I think I'm still very concerned about my child's future. ”

Su Ling interrupted their nonsensical conversation: "The topic is off track......"

"Okay, they've rested enough, get up and have another drink!" Xuejuan tried hard to wake up Xiaotang and Hua Wen, and Xiaoqi solved most of the remaining dishes in the pot, wiped his mouth and raised the wine glass that was full again.

So after drinking a few glasses in a row again, Xiaotang and Hua Wen, who were finally "beaten" to wake up, fainted again, and this time they couldn't even maintain their sitting posture, Xuejuan was really drunk, and kept muttering something in her mouth like a dream, Xiaoqi couldn't eat anymore so she forced herself to accompany Su Ling, Qiao Jinghui was also drunk, and her head was tilted on the chair and she didn't want to move.

Su Ling shook his head helplessly: "In the past, Jinghui, who didn't drink, accompanied me to wake up, but this time you stayed." ”

Xiaoqi struggled to pop out a word: "Hmm." ”

Su Ling melancholy had another drink with Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi couldn't support it anymore after making this cup, and struggled to fall down, Su Ling looked at the "lying corpse" on the table, and slowly shook his head, the amount of wine is too good, it is also a kind of loneliness...... As soon as her heart fell, Qiao Jinghui suddenly "stood up", straightened up and said, "Where are you?" ”

Su Ling was taken aback, and said Who is this? As a result, Qiao Jinghui fell down suddenly, and she didn't react when she smashed it down, and naturally her forehead must have been red when she got up, but Su Ling was speechless, she turned out to be a "fraudulent corpse"!

Except for her, everyone was drunk, Su Ling glanced at the time, it was already half past nine in the evening, so he took out his mobile phone and called Wang Xiaoxi: "Hey, Wang Xiaoxi, your girlfriend is already drunk and can't get up, quickly call the boy you know to come and pick us up, yes, come now, Hualian Chuanyu No. 1, we have finished eating." Glancing at Hua Wen, she said, "Well, by the way, call five of them, and tell him that Hua Wen is also drunk, you know." ”

After speaking, Su Ling began to drink to herself, she hadn't been drunk when she was so big, it was really lonely......

Ten minutes later, the five big boys gathered at No. 1 Sichuan and Chongqing, not to eat, but to move, and when the five people helped Xuejuan, Xiaotang, Xiaoqi, Hua Wen, and Qiao Jinghui up, Su Ling also staggered to stand up, and took the lead out of the hot pot restaurant strongly, but as soon as he went out, he couldn't help but stand against the wall.

When I raised my eyes, I saw a man and a woman passing by in the field of vision, the man's back was very familiar, and when I looked at it, it turned out to be Yu, so who was the girl next to him? But even if you drink too much and your brain is not good, Su Ling can guess that it is either her ex-girlfriend or her current girlfriend! And the two of them looked like they had just come down from watching a movie upstairs.

Su Ling only glanced at the inside of the hot pot restaurant and shouted, "Can you hurry up, guys?" ”

The five "short stature" were the first to come out, and said while struggling forward: "Come on, don't rush, I haven't carried such a heavy thing for many years?" What's the hurry! ”

Su Ling smiled: "Hua Wen is a thing?" ”

"No, no, no, it's not a thing."

"Hua Wen is not a thing?"

"......," the five squinted at Su Ling, "you did it on purpose." ”

Su Ling turned around and opened the way, but he almost hit the person who suddenly stood in front of him, and his legs were about to fall backwards as soon as he was weak, but he was accidentally pulled by the person in front of him as soon as he stretched out his hand, and the five were also shocked, but he couldn't spare his hand to help with Hua Wen on his back.

"What are you doing here?" Su Ling glanced at Yu and brushed away the hand he had placed on her back, letting go of the other hand that was holding her tightly.

At this time, several other boys came out one after another, and Jue glanced at them and said, "You have dinner together?" ”

"No, they're just here to move, and it's the girls in our class who have dinner, but they're all drunk now, so I called the boys in the class to help."

Yu looked carefully, confirmed that there was no more person to help Su Ling, and asked, "What about you?" You can't walk steadily. ”

Su Ling glanced at the girl who was looking impatiently at this side from a distance, and said, "It's none of your business, your girlfriend is waiting for you." ”

Yu also glanced over there and explained, "Ex-girlfriend." ”

What about your ex-girlfriend, you're not walking with someone else, what do you mean, why are you still standing here?

Ignoring Su Ling's sharp eyes, he asked, "Are you going back to the dormitory now?" ”

Why can you go without going back to your dorm? Do you want to go to karaoke? They're all unconscious, do you want me to sing all night alone? Or are we going to see a movie? Do you think we're all VIPs and we can get tickets whenever we want to see anything? Do you know that it is the peak season for movie releases, you are terrible when you grab the tickets, and you are terrible for your couple? Hum!

"I'll send you back." Yu said.

Su Ling ignored him, she couldn't accept him when she remembered the things she saw in his space when she was a freshman, and he still watched movies with his ex-girlfriend! Then he ran over and said that he wanted to help her, but he couldn't bear it!

So Su Ling followed the footsteps of the large army and walked quickly in the direction of the elevator. And Ji, who was asked "what are you doing here" by many acquaintances in the class who came and went, finally felt embarrassed, so he quickly walked to his ex-girlfriend.

Su Ling and the others took the straight elevator directly down to the 1st floor, and the group left Hualian in a mighty way, Su Ling looked back while following behind, and her back was empty, except for the few people who came back from the supermarket shopping There was nothing that could make her stop, and after a few times Su Ling stopped looking behind because she was going to cross the street.

The reality is like this, you tell that person that your path is ahead and you have to go forward, you think that person will catch up, but in fact he will not, you are even willing to wait for him in the same place, but he has never caught up, it was like this before, it is like this now, and it will not change in the future. And then your path is still going to be finished, so you have to keep going, and that person will only be left behind by you, and some regrets are like this, you have to go further and further in both directions.

Before, that person had never come to chase her, and when she said to go, he let her go, but she didn't know how long she waited in the same place but didn't wait for anything.

Now she still hasn't met anyone who knows how to chase her, do they all think that she really doesn't care, she really just walks away, and she can really heal herself for anything?

She's not a strong woman, she's just a girl who needs to be cared for, explained, and pursued!

Qiao Jinghui's ticket home had been booked, and the other three people in the dormitory went to the station to see her off, and the four of them took a bus for more than an hour to arrive at the station, saying goodbye outside the entrance.

Qiao Jinghui is the one with the thickest wrapping, the black men's down jacket is very cool, but it doesn't show her figure at all, Su Ling said: "I hope you can exercise a little better after a year, and you don't have to wear a down jacket so early in winter in the future." ”

Xiaoqi said: "You look very handsome when you play, remember to participate in more activities over there!" Any singing competition, painting competition, try any project, anyway, everyone in the barracks is about the same level, and there is nothing to be ashamed of. ”

Hua Wen said: "Take care of yourself, you don't have to worry about us here, but remember to call back!" ”

Qiao Jinghui smiled: "You are all about to compare my mother, when I go home, my mother must be ready to have more words to nag me, there is still so much time before I go in, it is enough for her to make my ears calloused." Mai Ba in our dormitory is obviously Su Ling, you should go to the campus singer competition, anyway, you will graduate in another year, so let's go and participate in it once. I don't know how to paint at all, Hua Wen has learned, you can continue to learn, and in the future, you can show off that you are still an artist while engaging in technology, how good! As for small chess, if you decide to play the game to the end, I wish you to become a professional player in the future, you know that the income of professional game players is also very high, and the future is immeasurable! ”

After finishing speaking, the four of them were silent, in fact, everything was silent, but everyone was used to using fragmented thoughts to relieve the embarrassment of silence.

Farewell Cambridge:

Gently I go,

As I come gently;

I beckoned gently,

Be the clouds of the western heavens.

The golden willows on the banks of the river,

is the bride in the sunset;

Bright shadows in the waves,

It ripples in my heart.

Wattles on soft mud,

oily swaggering underwater;

In the soft waves of the River Cam,

I'm willing to be a water weed.

A pool in the shade of the elm,

It's not a clear spring, it's a rainbow in the sky;

Crumpled among the floating algae, precipitating a rainbow-like dream.

Looking for a dream? Hold a penny,

Wander to the greener grass;

Loaded with a boatload of starlight,

Sing in the starlight.

But I can't put on songs,

Quietly is the parting sheng flute;

The summer worm is also silent for me,

Silence is Cambridge tonight!

Quietly I'm gone,

As I came quietly;

I waved my sleeves,

Do not take away a single cloud.

It will be time to get on the train in another twenty minutes, it stands to reason that it should be the time to check in now, Qiao Jinghui must enter the station, and the three of them reluctantly watched her enter the station, pass the security check, and finally disappear from view.

Life can be the process of seeing others out of your field of vision, and then you leave someone else's field of vision, and we can't pry the wheel of history.
