Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, although three of the five people have hung up the lottery, after all, they are all to protect Tang Tang, so there is no knot that cannot be solved.

Seeing that there were still two or three hours before the dormitory closed, Shi Zhuang invited everyone to his small noodle restaurant for two drinks, and he could also catch up with Tang Tang, who he hadn't seen for a long time.

Time is really an interesting thing, it can generate a lot of memories, deeply imprinted in people's hearts, and make people think of it when they are happy, when they are sad, and especially when they are reunited; Time is a merciless thing, it cuts into people's faces and changes people's appearance.

Many times, people look back and find that the memories are still those memories, yellowed but not deteriorated. It's just that the people in the memories have all changed.

When Shi Zhuang and Tang Tang last met, he was still very thin, only half a head taller than Tang Tang. Unexpectedly, after all these years, Shi Zhuang is really like his name, he looks strong and strong, and he is even more honest. And Tang Tang has become a big beauty from a young girl, and she has become a famous dance goddess of Jiang University.

In fact, Shi Zhuang had heard Tang Tang's name mentioned a long time ago, but he thought it was just a duplicate name or a nickname given to the goddess of dance, after all, in his impression, the little girl named Tang Tang was a shy little girl who would blush when she saw anyone talking, how could she frequently appear on many performance stages inside and outside the school.

Shi Zhuang's small noodle shop is in a small alley outside an intersection from the school, and the person he partners with runs around all year round, and the noodle shop is completely left to Shi Zhuang to take care of alone, so Shi Zhuang has never had the opportunity to go to the campus of Jiangbei University in order to work hard to make money. Today, it was because of his girlfriend's birthday that he was rarely willful and closed early.

Tang Tang's family conditions are very good, so she usually goes to eat outside the school, either to a chain of brand fast food restaurants, or to a restaurant with a certain scale and fame like Yuelai Restaurant, and a small noodle restaurant like Shi Zhuang will never go.

It is precisely because of such and such reasons that Tang Tang and Shi Zhuang have never had the opportunity to meet each other even though they are only one intersection apart.

Everyone supported each other, limped to Shi Zhuang's restaurant, and was surprised to find that such a big and three thick person actually kept the noodle restaurant in an orderly manner, very clean and warm. Behind the door, there are flower stands full of succulents, pots of spider plants hanging on the ceiling, many words and phrases that can only be found in chicken soup for the soul are pasted on the wall, and there are colorful sticky notes on one wall, which record some confessions that dare not speak, all kinds of blessings, and all kinds of parting words that make people's eyes moist after looking at them.

The small space of more than 30 square meters, in addition to bowls of steaming noodles, also carries the youth and beautiful memories of too many people, making this small noodle restaurant not only a place to fill their stomachs, but also an indispensable part of many people's warm and romantic memories.

"I'm sorry, it's a bit messy, I went out in a hurry today, and I didn't bother to clean it up." Shi Zhuang said with a smile while wiping his hands with a wet towel.

Although he said that he was embarrassed, it could be seen that he was very proud to have such a small noodle restaurant. He didn't talk much along the way just now, just smirked, as if it was because he would inevitably feel inferior when he stood next to these top students of Jiang University. Only at this moment, standing in his noodle shop, did he really straighten his waist, and let Ning Yu and them really see how tall this product was.

"You've got to be 1.9 meters, right?" Ning Yu asked.

Shi Zhuang scratched his head and smiled: "It's almost the same, one meter eighty-eight." ”

The little fat brother rubbed his legs and said with a sad face: "Brother, with all due respect, you have such a good physical condition, it's a pity not to play basketball, what kind of bite are you practicing?" ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you take off your pants quickly, show me, it's really not okay, let's go to the hospital, right?"

The little fat brother was about to cry: "If I really take off my pants here, our Tang Colonel Hua will see it and scold me for being a hooligan, will you want to bite me on my other leg later?" Alright, each one in his own business, you are not clear. They are all big men with rough skin and thick meat, and no one should be hypocritical with anyone. ”

Indeed, Shi Zhuang also has a lot of injuries on his body, and some are injured on his face. Half of his face was swollen with a large blue bag, so swollen that it looked like he had a very asymmetrical cheekbone. There are too many injuries on his body to say it, there must be a long blood stain, Ning Yu's stick has drawn out the strength that an adult should have, and if he is thin, he is estimated to have been in the hospital.

"Drink?" Shi Zhuang walked around to the back of the cash register and took down a one-pound bottle of Erguotou from the wine cabinet.

The little fat brother immediately smiled: "Okay, after the fight, drink a drink, invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis, and if you get up tomorrow morning, you will be healed of any injuries." ”

The little fat brother and Shi Zhuang have very compatible personalities, they are both very aggressive, the slight difference is that Shi Zhuang is honest, while the little fat brother is like a resentful woman. It's okay, one yin and one yang, maybe they can reconcile with each other if they talk more.

"Shi Zhuang, how many years have you been open for this noodle shop?" Tang Tang did not sit down, but hooked the little fingers of both hands behind her back, walking step by step in the noodle restaurant, curiously observing every detail, and finally she stopped in front of the wall covered with post-it notes, blinking her eyes at the thousands of moods presented in the text above.

"It's been more than two years. Uncles and aunts are all right, I haven't seen you in a long time. Shi Zhuang said, as if he suddenly remembered his youth, and his eyes were slightly red. He raised his glass and touched it with the little fat brother, and then took a sip of it.

Tang Tang smiled sweetly: "It's all good, you have time to go to my house to play." ”

"That's a good feeling." Shi Zhuang's face was happy, but his eyes quickly dimmed again: "I'm not going, I'm quite busy here, I'm all alone inside and out, I don't think I have much time." ”

Perhaps, the real reason why Shi Zhuang didn't dare to go to Tang Tang's house was not how busy the noodle restaurant was, but that he and Tang Tang were no longer in the same world, and the distance between the two worlds was really far away. Even if they are just small, just friends, there is no emotion between men and women.

The little fat brother exclaimed: "No, it's just you?" ”

Shi Zhuang nodded and said, "Yes, it's just me, occasionally my girlfriend will come to help me with the cashier." ”

"Then when you make noodles, there is no one at the cash register?" The little fat brother felt a little incredible.

Shi Zhuang scratched his head and smiled: "Hehe, it's okay if no one is there." The people who come to me are all students and teachers of Jiang University, and everyone is of high quality, and if anyone really forgets to pay, they will make a special trip back. I can trust it. ”

"Ning Yu, don't secretly stare at Tang Tang, come over and drink some too." The little fat brother turned his head and said to Ning Yu, who had been silent.

Ning Yu was startled, frowned and glared at the little fat brother, and said with a red face: "I drank it at night, you can drink it." ”

"Are you looking at me?" Tang Tang withdrew his gaze from the sticky notes, looked at Ning Yu and tilted his head slightly and asked with a smile.

"Hahaha......" everyone laughed.

A few people chatted and drank wine in the small noodle restaurant, letting the time pass unconsciously, and soon it was time for everyone to go back to school, but Shi Zhuang was still reluctant to let everyone go back.

Enjoying the prosperity and hustle and bustle, the sudden calm must bring a fierce loneliness, loneliness, and even loneliness like the tide, which is not pleasant.

"Do you want to see where I live? It's right next to it. Shi Zhuang saw that everyone seemed to be leaving, and asked a little anxiously.

"Okay." Tang Tang smiled and nodded.

Since Tang Tang agreed so readily, the others naturally didn't have anything to say, so they had to follow along.

Boys don't have the slightest interest in visiting same-sex residences, and if it's a girls' dormitory, it's estimated that someone can make a fortune by selling tickets at the door to allow boys to visit.

The enemy where Shi Zhuang lived was indeed not far from the small noodle restaurant, no more than a hundred meters away in a straight line, and it was only a few minutes' walk.

This place has not yet begun to be demolished, it is all bungalows with small courtyards, and the alleys are very narrow, which is much more shabby than the surrounding tall buildings and large-scale communities, but it also gives people a more intimate market atmosphere. The toilets here are in the middle of the alley and are shared, and washing hands and faces can be done in the yard, as there are outdoor taps and sewers by the window.

It is only five or six square meters of yard, it is a small house, the house is only divided into two rooms, it seems that the space is not very large, the glass window of one of the rooms is even broken, and there are many layers of plastic sheeting wrapped on it, which is blown by the wind and shakes indiscriminately, like a ghost, which is very scary.

"You're ...... Live here? "Tang Tang felt a little incredible. Perhaps in her opinion, this place is simply uninhabitable.

"yes, little cottage, isn't it luxurious?" Shi Zhuang smiled and took out the key to unlock the door, pushed open the door, and turned on the light in the house.

The appearance of light drove away the terrifying atmosphere of the dilapidated courtyard in the dark, but it illuminated the dilapidated place more clearly, and also let everyone see clearly that although this place is broken, it is definitely not messy or dirty, and all the arrangements are quite tidy.

"Come in and have a look, and show you my little treasure trove." Shi Zhuang made a "please" gesture to everyone.

As soon as he heard the words "Little Treasure House", the little fat brother immediately became excited, and followed Shi Zhuang into the house first. Immediately afterwards, Ning Yu and the others, who were about to follow into the house, heard Brother Chubby's question: "These things are your little treasure house?" ”

In Shi Zhuang's so-called "small treasure house", there are countless books, all of which are worn out and scattered everywhere, which is completely different from Shi Zhuang's impression of being rough and detailed.

Those books are not novels, but textbooks, textbooks of Jiang University, from public courses to professional courses, from experimental courses to elective courses, and some high school textbooks, and even somewhere there is a collection of test questions of "three-year college entrance examination and five-year simulation", which is dazzling. In addition to these textbooks, there are also a lot of scratch paper scattered on the floor, on the table, and on the chairs, all of which are densely written, which look like notes and calculus for some questions......

"Is this ......" Tang Tang looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but ask in surprise.

Shi Zhuang scratched his head and smiled: "Although I didn't go to college, I have been trying to study on my own." ”

Brother Chubby said: "No matter how you study, you can't have credits, let alone a graduation certificate, what's the use?" ”

Shi Zhuang asked a question suspiciously, leaving the little fat brother speechless.

"Isn't learning for yourself? Why do I have to have credits and a graduation certificate? I didn't go to high school, and I didn't have the opportunity to go to college. All the efforts made now can be regarded as the salvation of the former self. No, I always felt that I couldn't hold my head up in a world full of college students. ”
