Chapter 21: Heartache to meet you
The first time I saw you, it was about 7 o'clock in the evening, and the other three students in the group were conducting qualitative interviews for the first time, at the 414 conference table, I discussed the interview outline for the next day with a doctoral sister, a junior sister of the first graduate school, and a male student of the same level, I still remember you at that time, dressed in a black sleeveless dress, entered the conference room from the dark corridor outside, and sat at the conference table closest to the door, just facing me.
The next day, Zhu Jia set off from home at 7:47, and 45 minutes later, when he stepped out of the fourth entrance of the subway station on Deping Road, the familiar finger cake stall appeared on the left, since the end of the internship in Pudong four months ago, last night the senior sister told him to gather in this place today, what he remembered the most was that he could see the finger cake that accompanied him for half a year as soon as he got out of the subway this morning, and a few months ago when he was leaving, he stupidly bought a piece to eat in the subway in order to commemorate the last time.
The sky was exceptionally clear, when he habitually walked under the camphor forest, there was an egg cake with hot sauce and sweet spicy sauce in his hand, and two young and beautiful girls in light clothes in front of him were coming, and his afterglow noticed their approach, he immediately leaned to the right front, sat under the bus stop, and waited until the spicy egg cake was all eaten and drank a sip of breakfast milk, he was hungry. I was thirsty for a morning and felt refreshed.
He sat in front of a bench on the first floor of the Pudong Health and Disease Prevention Building, watching the time on his phone approaching nine o'clock, wondering how long it would be before they arrived.
A pair of snow-white long legs appeared in his peripheral vision, and he looked up along the legs, just in time to see Senior Sister Doctor standing in front of him, looking at him with a smile. "You're here so early?"
I was also infected and smiled and said, "yes, I came at 7:50, where are we going now?" As soon as I said this, I wondered if she would misunderstand that she had arrived here before 8 o'clock.
“207。”
Hearing her say, "Go from here" I pointed to the spiraling staircase ahead, thinking that it was just right for her steps.
She stood at the back of the crowd, petite at 1.62 meters, looking at this side, with a peerless face, I couldn't imagine seeing her again would be so shocking, my heart had been touched and I wanted to go up and chat with her.
Sitting in 207 and waiting for a while, she sat quietly in the position parallel to me at the two opposite desks behind me, trying to attract her attention, but she seemed to only regard me as a classmate with me today, as if today was just a moment in her life, and she didn't pay much attention to us who experienced it together, in the parking lot on the first floor, I took the small stereo in her hand and put it under the trunk.
I used to sit on the school bus to see the scenery of Huangpu Jing'an and other central cities from the viaduct, and for the first time I walked in the direction of Pudong to the sea, the traffic was less than half, all the way at high speed, sitting in the center of the second row, I could see the girl on the right side of the third row through the mirror in front of me, reclining on the seat, looking out the window. She's the strange elf I really want to meet.
For more than 20 minutes, bypassing the circular highway next to Disneyland, the surrounding area is no longer a high-rise building complex, basically similar to the general small city, and it is more than 40 minutes, this 8-seater business vehicle bypasses seven or eight small bends and stays in the factory area of Hi-P Electronics.
……….
I will soon go abroad to study for a master's degree, and before leaving, the final research before graduation was only completed as a task, perhaps because of these, from last night I saw these seniors, they are just the objects of my task to complete today.
I don't know when I started to notice his presence, this boy seemed to know everything, driving in a business car in the outskirts of Pudong New Area, and at first it was all about him talking to two other Pudong health experts, his voice was hard and magnetic, and he spoke appropriately and humbly.
I like to see his side face, clean face, in this electronics factory equipped with ipone, I sat around a small table with him and my doctor's sister, he held a notebook to record the interviews of several employees, and I happened to be opposite him, a meter away, I secretly looked at him a few times, but he didn't seem to notice my existence at all, and he was quickly tapping the keyboard with a focused expression.
I really want to say to him at this time: "Hey, senior, I'm looking at you, you look up at me." ”
I had OCD, and I was right in front of him, and this man hadn't looked at me until now.
After eating at noon, I was so tired that I walked into the meal early.
。。。。。。。
From time to time, I looked at the spacious canteen space, the seat in front of me was full of fifty or sixty workers, a little noisy, and sitting next to me was the doctor's sister, and I couldn't find where she was.
"Why hasn't that sister-in-law come back from buying water?" I seemed to be talking to myself.
Later, I couldn't help but walk around the cafeteria and outside a few times, but I still didn't find her, until later, when I walked up to the business car to get water, I saw a beautiful little girl lying on the seat and falling asleep.
