"Here we are." I nodded and laughed back.

She put down the book and stroked her hair, this subconscious, small action to cover up her shyness made her look very cute: "I'm your roommate, my name is Xie Duan." "

"Zhuang Ning." I found the closet with my student number printed on it and stuffed the box inside.

"Oh." She was silent for a while and then asked me, "Is it a quiet Ning?" "

"No, it's condensation."

She thought for a moment, and then thought again: "Then you must be very good at chemistry?" "

I didn't say anything, just as if I saw my other self quietly grimacing at the height of my head - this causal connection was really speechless.

"You're here a long time ago?" I climbed to the top bunk, spread the newspapers one by one on the bare bed, and put a thin blanket on them, asking questions as I went.

"Well, my mom sent me."

Her bed was across from me, flat, and a hairy bear lay on it, with big, dark, and honest eyes.

The other two beds are also occupied. My family lives in the city, but I was the last to arrive. In the morning, he and Shen Sibo took a taxi all the way, and when they arrived at the place, they found that there were many procedures, so they were busy and received the keys to the dormitory to clean up, and met at lunch time.

L University is a nearly 100-year-old school, and in recent years, it has expanded its enrollment and built a new campus in the university town by the river, which is basically equivalent to the suburbs.

Construction was still going on around the school, and the dormitory building we lived in had just been completed just before the summer vacation, with shiny white walls, smooth tables and chairs, but still with unworn thorns on the edges - the latter was a small metaphor for the seventeen or eighteen years old.

But I didn't think much of it at the time, for there was a faint smell of paint in the air, and the midday sun penetrated through the glass doors, stretching from the terrazzo floor to the walls, and the geometric patterns were so bright that even the shadows that could not be cared for were faint. I packed up and straightened up to admire it, when someone called my name under the balcony.

I ran out in a few steps, the rag still in my hand.

Shen Sibo stood in the carport opposite the girls' dormitory, white T-shirt and denim pants, and laughed when he saw me:

"Have you got it right? Come down and eat! "

It's a clean, cool little afternoon in early autumn, and the boy I like is waiting for me downstairs. I couldn't remember anything, but I felt very light and pleasant, and shouted to him, "Okay, wait for me for a while." "

I must have been bewildered by the beautiful autumn light - a square stool stood less than two steps from the balcony door, and by the time I found it, the inertia had caused my whole body to stall and crash into it, and I lost my balance under my feet, and my right half of my body touched the ground, and my consciousness paused slightly, and then my fingertips began to numb.

For two or three seconds, the world was spinning, and I only heard someone rushing over in a panic: "Are you okay, Zhuang Ning?" You okay? "

It was Xie Duan's voice, and she tried to help me. And I was so embarrassed at the moment, I felt that I could make a little redemption when I got up, so I gritted my teeth and pushed her hand away: "No, no." "

She was at a loss: "I didn't put the stool here on purpose, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." "

"I can't blame you, I know it's there." I slowly stood up with my desk, patted the dust on my body, and smiled bitterly: "I was too careless." "

Who made me look like myself at all when I saw Shen Sibo. Recklessly like that, the.

When I washed my hands and changed into a coat and ran downstairs, the carport was empty, and I was in a daze, when I was bumped on the shoulder from behind: "Where do you look?" "

When I heard his voice, I relaxed, turned my head, Shen Sibo's eyes were full of smiles, looked at me and said, "I don't look back, where are you going?" "

I've always been not slow to react, but when he smiled like this, I couldn't speak, and my language was like a light-phobic little animal, running away in all directions, chasing for a long time and then bringing out such a sentence: "You, where are you going?" "

"It's just a different place." Shen Sibo motioned for me to look at the shade next to the gatehouse of the dormitory building, and then he took a step back to look at me and asked, "You just walked very strangely, what's the matter, twisted?" "

"I just fell."

He smiled: "Then you still run?" "

"I'm afraid you'll have something to do and walk away."

When I was changing clothes in the dormitory just now, Xie Duan was probably still very embarrassed and asked:

"Why don't I go to the balcony and tell your boyfriend to tell him not to worry, wait a while?"

"Oh, he's a neighbor's kid." I buttoned my buttons and glanced at myself in the dressing mirror, my expression was quite natural, and my face was not red: "Don't bother, I'll be fine right away." "

"No trouble, it should be." She ran out anyway, came back, and said with a strange look, "He seems to be no longer there." "

I was anxious when I heard it, there was no mobile phone at that time, and it was a certain chance that I could not meet in time if I staggered, so I ran down as fast as I could, and there was a tendon in my right foot that was still throbbing and throbbing.

Shen Sibo listened to my words, remained silent, and then laughed: "You are really, why are you so--"

I waited and waited, thinking that you would do the cloze in the blanks? Unable to say the whole thing: "What? "

He walked beside me and looked at me: "Reflect on yourself." "

I don't know what to say, I can only shrug my shoulders, I don't know anything about others, anyway, in the whole world, there is only you Shen Sibo.

I didn't say these words, and the atmosphere was already the perfect rhyme at that time, so why bother to go to the side and lean out - I thought he knew everything.

Shen Sibo, who is unique to me in the whole world, has fine porcelain-like beautiful facial features, when he looks at people, his eyes are as gentle and clear as water, after him I began to pay attention to the male lips, but I have never seen such perfect lines, light and soft, and at the same time a little pale for some reason - just such a beautiful boy, really useless only I can see, sometimes take me to school on a bicycle, I said you don't ride too fast, he said, no problem.

Then they pedaled at a galloping speed, making big curved turns, and trying to get through each intersection before the red light went out.

I was actually very relieved, but I pretended to panic and pinched the corner of his clothes in my hand: "Slow, slow--there are traffic police--there are cars--"

"I'm in front of you, what are you afraid of?" He turned his back to me and was very determined: "If you want something, I will do it first." "

"Cut, what if it's the car behind?"

"You let them chase one and try it." When going downhill, he didn't pinch the brakes, just rushed straight down, the wind was coming, and he could feel them slip through his fingers when he reached out, and the silky texture and concentration of the water flowed like a small spring.

Of course, most of the time, we rode our bikes to school together. As soon as we arrived, we didn't care about each other, he was his little gentleman, I was my female cadre, and it was an era when the relationship between men and women was not very normal.

I know him at what age, there is no certificate to test, only know that in the first five years of his birth, Uncle Shen was a soldier in the field, and the time for father and son to get together would not exceed 50 days.

For as long as I can remember, our two families have had a good relationship, and even his dad taught me about cycling. When I was a teenager learning to drive, I couldn't learn anything, and my parents didn't have time, or they didn't bother to pay attention to such trivial things. Uncle Shen got off work and had nothing to do, holding me or Shen Sibo in the back seat of the car, following in a circle, and then quietly letting go when we weren't paying attention.

Uncle Shen was funny and patient, and we both learned to wrestle with little to no wrestling. When children first get started with something, they are always addicted, and when Shen Sibo and I were in the heat, we rode around the yard, like a little neuropathy, and we didn't feel tired. My arms were red from the sun, and then they peeled, and for many years, they never came back.

In middle school, we entered the rocket class of the same school, and the top students in the city gathered, and I was both curious and disgusted with my halfway body, and from time to time I would think about "what is going on in life" such fake big empty questions, and in the middle of the class, my thoughts wandered on their own and went out, and I didn't know how many miles to take it back, only to find that I didn't think about anything at all, and my mind was blank - a daze is the first thing to learn in adolescence.

And Shen Sibo seems to be suddenly favored by girls, and the scandal is like a spring day, which is called opening up one after another, and it is endless.

I didn't realize it at first, until one afternoon, because I didn't finish my homework for the next class, I took a leave of absence from physical education class to rush in the classroom, and two girls in the back row were muttering:

"...... You said Bai Jiajia and Shen Sibo? "

The other was silent, presumably nodding, and the former went on to ask:

"Isn't Shen Sibo with Li Li in the first class?"

"Who knows. It's Li Li who likes Shen Sibo, right? "

"......"

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sunlight reflected through the glass window on the desk, which was a bit dazzling, and I bit the tip of my pen and couldn't finish a single question. I didn't see Shen Sibo, you are quite popular. Why didn't I find out before, Uncle Shen obviously said to me, Xiao Ning, this son of my family doesn't talk to other girls except you, what should I do in the future, or you will be my daughter-in-law.

I inexplicably felt a little deceived, and I had nowhere to vent, so I turned around and yelled at the two little eight women: "Can the voice be smaller?" Boredom? "

I was a deputy of the class at that time, and I was a cadre, and they were bluffed by my upright appearance, and I couldn't speak for a while, so I turned around and continued to do my homework, and at the same time thought angrily in my heart, Shen Sibo, you see me and tell your father.

I thought so, I didn't pay much attention to it, what I didn't expect was that the rumors came into my ears once, and the next time I was familiar with it, I was in the classroom, in the school corridor, they were everywhere like spring flocculents, and even in the women's toilet, someone wanted to "talk to me about Shen Sibo's problem" through the baffle.

I couldn't cry or laugh, I turned on the faucet and washed my hands, and the girl followed me:

"I heard that you go home with Shen Sibo every day, what is your relationship?"

I simply said, "I don't know him." "

"Really?" The other party asked suspiciously: "You don't lie to me?" "

"What's so good about Shen Sibo?" I was so angry that my patience was pushed to the end of my life by her: "Your brains are all broken!" "

Instead, she was relieved and laughed: "You said, you don't like him." "

I met this little female hooligan named Zhao Duo a few years later, and she was already a fierce rookie in the business world, she said to me when she pushed the cup and changed the lamp during the banquet, I saw through you the first time I dealt with you Zhuang Ning, a vain guy, he likes it to death, and he pretends. Come on, come on, dry this cup, thank you for not robbing your Shen Sibo. yes, yes, your Shen Sibo.

At the end of school that day, I saw Shen Sibo talking to her at the school gate, the latter's hand gently resting on his car handlebar, his long hair hanging down, and his shoulders and snow-white arms were hidden in it. At that time, ion perm was not popular, and most girls were frizzy crazy girls as soon as they were released, how could they be so obedient and so dark and bright, like a ghost.

I didn't squint, I stepped on the car slowly, Shen Sibo coughed behind me, and I was about to stop and wait for him, when I heard her voice raised:

"Hey, Sibo!"

As soon as I pedaled, the bike immediately rushed out quickly, I was angry with myself while exerting my strength, I had never called him that for so long, how did she open her mouth? Still shameless?

After a few minutes, Shen Sibo caught up, and there was a thin layer of sweat on his fair face: "What are you running?" "

He was in the midst of a voice change at the time, and his voice was a little dumb, and he usually spoke a little lower to disguise himself, which sounded particularly gentle. I tilted my head to see his side face in the setting sun.

I have known him for so many years, and I have no idea whether he is good-looking or not, and at this moment I found out that he is such a beautiful boy, no wonder he is silent, and rumors come uninvited - scandals such a thing, who would like to patronize the youth with a plain color, they are such sensitive and snobbish butterflies. It was dark and I was stunned for the first time listening to the slight click of the bicycle axle turning.

Shen Sibo noticed it and asked me, Zhuang Ning, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?

I didn't answer, because I thought that he might not only do this to me, and suddenly I felt sad, and the wind blew in my face only to find that there were tears in my eyes, and I reached out to rub it, and I said, it's okay.

Later, my memories of this relationship have been broken from the context, before it was confused, but it was reassuring, as comfortable and casual as still water, but on such a sunny day in May, lightning suddenly flashed in the air, and the big white four fields, so it began to be dangerous, began to be sensitive, and then began to speculate in every way, and began to suffer from gains and losses.

The man met his 100% girl near Shinjuku, she was not very pretty, she was not even very special, but he wanted to talk to her and tell her a story about the meeting and the loss of a pair of 100% lovers, who passed by because of fate and the ignorance of their youth, and there were only 75 or 85% of the love left in this world, although it was also very moving, but it was never consummated.

One afternoon we were reading and studying together, and when we were tired, we started chatting, and after I finished telling this story to Shen Sibo, he looked at me and said, "Gone?" "

"No, aren't you impressed?"

He shook his head, and I asked him:

"Have you ever met a girl like this?"

He thought about it seriously: "Not for the time being, I don't feel that way." "

I was a little disappointed, and I couldn't think of anything else to answer, so I quickly continued, "Me too." "

After a while, Shen Sibo had already buried himself in his homework again, and I touched him: "I heard that the love mode of ordinary people is generally divided into four types, childhood sweethearts, friends in distress, matchmakers, and Pingshui encounters. "

"Huh?" Without raising his head, he laid out a series of formulas on the manuscript paper.

"Which one do you aspire to the most?"

He stopped his pen and thought for two seconds: "Childhood sweetheart." "

"Huh?" I was actually too happy with this answer: "I didn't expect you to be so dreamy." "

"Because it's hard to find." He replied very seriously: "And you only have one chance in your life." "

Then he asked, "What about you?" "

I saw somewhere else: "Uh...... Even if it's okay to meet in Pingshui. "

When people are young, they don't know why, so much like to tell such little lies. At that time, I only thought that if I were to speak, I would be exactly like you, and I would be too lacking in mystery and twists. I hope he feels that the opposite sex in front of him is elusive.

"That's right." Shen Sibo suddenly became a little excited: "I saw a sentence two days ago, and your ......"

His mother pushed the door open a little at this time: "Sibo, Xiao Ning came to study, don't talk to her." "

We're both honest. Shen Sibo quickly wrote two lines on the paper, and when the left, I leaned over to read it.

His words are contrary to his person, beautiful, in the middle of a bunch of SINCOS, one by one vigorous and flamboyant:

"In this life, I turned the mountains and rivers to the pagoda,

Not for the sake of cultivating the next life, but just to meet you on the way. "

With a fever on his face, I looked up and saw him smiling, soft and bright: "Your Pingshui meets." "

I buried my face in the crook of my arm, didn't look at him, and asked, "Then Shen Sibo, do you and Bai Jiajia count?" What about Li Li? What about Zhao Duo? "

Shen Sibo turned his head away, looking very helpless: "I haven't even told them much, even if others pass it on, why do you follow the fun?" "

I was stunned for a moment, and he said, "Others" are okay, others, and I am not. This sentence is like a smooth wooden comb, combing and ironing the little entanglements in my heart temporarily, little by little.

He is like this, Shen Sibo, who is gentle and meticulous to everyone, but his feelings have not yet been enlightened, I first found out that I liked it, so I had to wait patiently.

In the sophomore year of high school, I did well in mathematics, physics and chemistry, especially chemistry, and I had the same fun as other people's headache inference questions, but Shen Sibo chose liberal arts. I flipped through the political history that I rarely read, and said to myself, what's so difficult about this, let's go on.

The head teacher looked at me with the volunteer form, with an unbelievable expression, Zhuang Ning, did you fill in the wrong form?

After a few months, my mother found out that I was carrying the Sui Dynasty Canal and the "Lost Generation" at home, and she asked, Xiao Ning, did you finish the exam?

There are also elders in the movie who say that people have to fulfill themselves, but I am just doing my best to fulfill myself.

When my schoolwork became increasingly heavy, my future was uncertain, and I was running out of will, I occasionally imagined that someone would take me away. Shen Sibo sat in the first two rows of my right, and when I looked up at his back, my restless heart gradually calmed down. I'm not in a hurry, and I can't imagine that we're going to fall in love with someone other than each other.

The long and dangerous adolescence, unsupervised, and one step was far away, but fortunately I carried it. On the first day of college, Shen Sibo and I sat in a small restaurant called "Jiayuan Xiaodian" outside the gate of L University, just struggling out of the bitter sea of the third year of high school, the legendary college life had just drawn the first tender sprouts, fragrant and fragrant, and we were very relaxed and happy with each other - although just now, I tripped over the square bench placed by my new roommate.

Shen Sibo was on the other side, using the hot tea in the pot to help me burn the dishes and chopsticks: "Does your leg still hurt?" "

"It's fine."

"You have to start military training tomorrow, what are you going to do, do you want to ask for leave?"

"I'm fine, don't you believe we can go to the playground for a few laps?"

I have been inspired to be educated since I was a child, to be strong and self-reliant, what is this pain in the wind and rain, of course, to the person I like, of course, to perform better, so that he can't find fault.

He laughed and leaned back in his chair: "How can I do such a victorious thing? Uncle Zhuang said I bullied you. "

"I can't even see him if he has that time."

Shen Sibo smiled and changed the topic: "Are all your roommates here?" "

"I saw one, a little beauty, to introduce you another day?"

"That's what you said." He was gentle, with bright dark eyes, gentle and careless.

"Hey, it's pretty." With him I have a pair of eyes that are particularly good at finding beauty, pointing out to him all possibilities of temptation, just waiting to see him as if it is not true.

He simply pretended not to hear it this time, and ignored my boredom: "You are so old and you still fall, your balance is not good, and you must not be allowed to learn to drive in the future." "

I think his last sentence is a bit like planning for the future with me, a little bit of joy, a little panicked, turning his face away, pretending to look at the scenery outside the window.

The warm autumn sun was gilded on the edge of the window, I looked out through the clear glass, a pair of young men and women were arguing on the side of the road, and from a distance I could see that they were very beautiful people, the man turned to leave, the girl suddenly hugged his waist from behind, and the man paused slightly, then broke her hand and left without looking back.

I thought to myself, this is a romantic college career, and if you bring out a random scene, it is about the lingering or parting of love.

The dishes were served one by one, and they were all ordinary home-cooked dishes, and the taste was okay. The small restaurants near the university, especially the ones with a better environment, as long as they don't cost you 30 yuan for a bowl of shredded potatoes, they are basically mixed up, and they are mixed well, and the money of college students is better than the ripe fruits in November.

When the meal was almost finished, Shen Sibo motioned for the service sister to come over to settle the bill, and I took out my wallet: "I'll come, I'll come." "

The novels I have read tell me without exception that a self-reliant woman should regard money as dust, whether it is the first time you meet or have known each other for a long time, you must not take advantage of a man, so that the other party will think that you are different and will love you.

"Why are you like that?" Shen Sibo stretched out his hand to block me, frowning: "Say yes, I'll please." "

His palm was strong, and I pushed it out, laughing, "It's okay, next time you come." "

Shen Sibo ignored me and handed the banknote to my little sister, and I snatched it back and stuffed it over. When he turned his head, he saw that there was no smile on his face.

I didn't realize that there was anything wrong with me doing this, and there were already people looking at us on the side, Shen Sibo finally gave up arguing with me, and waited for the waiter to walk away before he said calmly: "Zhuang Ning, can you be so polite with me?" "

It's a pity that at that time, I didn't know how to empathize with the embarrassment of the boy in this situation, and I didn't understand that Shen Sibo's words were expressing his unhappiness, but I felt that my actions were particularly worthy of appreciation, and Jane Eyre also wanted to stand up and sing a hymn for me.

In fact, when I think about it many years later, it has nothing to do with self-esteem, but it is just a young heart of mine, and it happens that there is so much pride, sensitivity and expressiveness that has nowhere to put it. The theory is that velvet has become a thorn thorn to me.

When I went back, I found Xie Duan munching bread in the bedroom, sitting there, not moving at all. I walked past her and glanced at her, only to notice that the girl's expression was particularly focused on eating, looking at the food in her hand, while chewing and swallowing slowly, like a contented, unhurried little squirrel.

"You're going to eat this?" I asked casually.

She seemed to be startled by me, choked, her face flushed, and I quickly poured water and handed it to her, while thinking to myself, did she use her brain to digest things? How can you talk to her like this?

"Be careful." I reminded her.

Xie Duan drank two sips of water, his face gradually calmed down, but his eyes turned red. This situation made me very embarrassed, I have always thought that crying is a very personal thing, if others accidentally bump into it, they should be like the old-fashioned gentleman who sees the skin above the wrist of a woman of a good family, implicitly and consciously retreat, and keep the fragility of the other party accidentally walking away.

She herself was a little embarrassed, took a deep breath, and then had nothing to say: "You are from this city?" "

"Yes, what about your house? Far away? "

"No, not far, Licheng."

"Oh, Licheng." I said, "I know." "

Xie Duan smiled and whispered: "I told you not to tell others, I grew up so big, I haven't left there much, but I haven't seen the world." "

She was very close, and I watched her look like she was talking to each other and had no heart.

At this time, someone pushed the door in, a very beautiful girl, with curly hair, long legs, and a very bright voice: "Yo, are they all here?" I can't hit anyone with a stick here in the morning! "

Her opening remarks are stylized enough, typical of tap water and its sister, self-cooked. I smiled at her, anyway, a dormitory will always know her name, so don't be in a hurry to ask.

Sure enough, she sat down across from us with a big grin: "My surname is Zeng, Zeng Xiaobai, and I am in the Department of Marketing of the Scholasticism." "

Then she handed over the two business cards, the bronzing words, the tactful flowers and leaves on the white background secretly undulating, "senior account manager" under the line, is her name and BP machine number, I pinched it and looked at it, thinking, is this person a student?

"It's a joke." Zeng Xiaobai probably saw my thoughts and laughed.

"I don't have a business card for you, just tell you, Zhuang Ning, condensation. Faculty of Law. "

"I'm just like her." Xie Duan continued.

"Even the name?" Zeng Xiaobai raised his eyebrows and said in surprise.

"Ah no, my name is Xie Duan. Jin Se gratuitous end. "

"Hey, I know this, we went to high school, and your family is quite educated!"

Xie Duan smiled embarrassedly: "My mother, my mother gave it." "

This is the second time I've heard her mention her mother, and it must have been a very good relationship between mother and daughter. I think of my own thriving director of the Women's Federation.

In the afternoon, I went to lead the military training uniform, and when I came back in the evening, I saw the last roommate, a small girl named Suma, who was not big, with a lot of glasses, and studied finance. Her age surprised us all, sixteen years old is two months apart, and the ID card for the college entrance examination is still temporary.

"You went to school when you were four?" Zeng Xiaobai sat on the edge of the bed, hanging two long legs and breaking his fingers to ask her.

"Five." The little girl corrected seriously: "We only have five years of primary school over there. "

"Then you must be very smart." XIE DUAN SAID WITH A SMILE WHILE WEARING HELLO KITTY PATTERN PAJAMAS AND COMBING HIS HAIR AT THE TABLE.

The other party was not modest at all, and nodded: "It's okay." "

I had just finished taking a shower, and I sat there listening to their chat, the night breeze was like a cold silk satin on my skin, and the room was very clean, and there was a faint smell of soap, and I looked at these girls who were going to spend four years together, and in the white and intense light of the fluorescent lamp, they, including me, were as delicate as young roses, and I felt very pleasant.
