In such a calamitous year, Lin Wei and Qiao Mu walked together without warning. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The life of a senior high school student is always tense and busy, the sound of hurried footsteps, the sound of the pen rubbing the test paper, and the smell of test paper ink in the air, mixed together in that hot summer, make people nervous, and even collapse.

And Lin Wei is indeed unusually happy, especially on the day when the mock exam results are released.

Qiao Mu's name always appears in the honor roll of the top three in the grade, written with a black oversized brush, and the words are in black and red, which is particularly conspicuous.

Although her results are not so good, but watching Qiao Mu's ranking get higher day by day, Lin Wei can't help but laugh out loud.

"I want to apply for schools in Shanghai, big cities, it's always much better than our small northern city."

"Yes, your grades are so good, absolutely no problem!"

"But—" Qiao Mu smiled, "I'm a little worried. ”

"Worried?" Lin Wei looked at Qiao Mu, "Don't be kidding, okay?" It's the top three in our school, what do you think of the teaching level of our school! ”

"Stupid." Qiao Mu looked at Lin Wei with a resentful face, and said helplessly, "I'm worried about you." ”

"Huh?" Lin Wei paused for a moment

"Even if I want to go to Shanghai, what's the point of not being there."

Lin Wei blushed instantly, "I, is it really that important?" ”

"Of course." Qiao Mu rubbed her little head, "It's not important. ”

"Hey!" Lin Wei scolded: "What are you kidding! ”

"It's a joke, are you serious?" Qiao Mu smiled heartily, "What a stupid person!" After saying that, he quickly ran away.

"Bastard! You're itchy again! Lin Wei chased after him with a smile

There are 30 days left before the college entrance examination.

Lin Wei lay on the bed in the dormitory, tossing and turning. "The cut-off score is high." She sighed, "Shanghai." ”

In that strange and huge city, they would seem so small, so small that they were insignificant.

There will be trains coming and going, there will be passers-by coming and going, there will be the bustling lights, and there will be unknown downfall.

Before meeting Qiao Mu, Lin Wei had never thought carefully about her future, where she would be, what kind of work she would do, what kind of person she would stay with for a lifetime, and what kind of family she would have.

She once wanted to stay in this small town and live an ordinary life with her parents for the rest of her life.

But now, she wants to change, not for herself, but for the sake of Qiao Mu.

Even though there are not many days left before the college entrance examination, she wants to give it a try, even if she walks in the ice and snow wasteland, Lin Wei still doesn't want to give up the possibility of the existence of the slightest flame.

With such determination, Lin Wei gritted her teeth and forgot to eat and eat books, and insisted on passing her college entrance examination.

In my memory, the college entrance examination that year was very difficult, and many people capsized in the gutter, and even the school teachers said that the exam papers that year were a little off-topic.

The arbor is still the same arbor, no matter how difficult or easy the paper is, it is still the top three in the school, and he was steadily admitted to Shanghai Jiao Tong University, which is not much different from his evaluation.

Lin Wei, the moment she got the answer, she simply thought that she was dead, and the choice part was extraordinary, but the subjective question really couldn't bear to look at it directly. She couldn't guess what the teacher was thinking, and the teacher couldn't guess what she was thinking when she looked at her paper.

Even so, Lin Wei did not give up, and as soon as she was heartbroken, she applied to Lixin Accounting College in Shanghai.

It turned out that she was right, because her actual score was a full 40 points higher than the estimated score, and in the words of the arbor, it means that "the iron tree has blossomed." ”

Like a dream, they came to Shanghai together. **It is not close to Lixin School of Accountancy, and there are several shifts on the subway alone. In addition, there are a lot of college courses, and Qiao Mu has become a teaching assistant, no matter what classes are not named, he must attend. Therefore, the time when two people meet is, unceremoniously, squeezing the time of others to drink coffee out of the sponge.

Later, they graduated together. Lin Wei wanted to obey her parents and go home. But Qiao Mu wanted to stay, he had already found a company, and they were willing to skip the probation period and hire him directly. Lin Wei chose the arbor again and stayed without hesitation.

Slowly, Lin Wei also had her own job, which was related to her profession, working as an accountant in a company. With the salaries of two people, their situation improved a little.

Later, the two began to be promoted and raised one after another. The overtime hours are getting longer and longer, especially for arbors, who often get a call in the middle of the night, put on their clothes and leave. Lin Wei was left alone in an empty house, blindly worried about nothing.

The house I live in is getting bigger, I have my own car, and I can afford those luxuries. But Lin Wei always felt as if something was missing, and she couldn't tell what it was.

On the contrary, it was her parents who somehow learned the news of her "cohabitation" with Qiao Mu. made a long-distance call thousands of miles away, and scolded her for a bloody squirt.

"That man is a liar!"

"A woman's family, living with a man before getting married, where do you tell me to put my face!"

"Don't be embarrassed there! Give me back! Or you won't come back! Let's live with that guy for the rest of my life! ”

"It's not what you think it is! I'm an adult, and I don't need your business! I don't care what people say, it's my life. You can do whatever you like! ”

"Okay, don't come back!"

"Okay, don't bother me in the future!"

Lin Wei hung up the phone and buried her head in the crook of her arm. Her head hurt, and it was about to crack. After a moment of silence, she turned on her mobile phone to find Qiao Mu's number, hesitated, and pressed the dial button. All I got was one sentence, which was a simple and boring female voice: "Hello, the number you dialed is busy right now, please call again later."

Lin Wei threw down her phone, sighed helplessly, and continued to be silent.

The farthest distance in the world,

Not the distance between trees,

but branches that grow from the same root,

But they can't cling to each other in the wind.

Qiao Mu, I miss you so much, the one in the past.
