Chapter 36: Confluence

The next morning, a white light shone in hazy outside the window, and when the window was opened, the fine rain reflected the entire space of the hotel square in a crisp rain.

"Fortunately, I wasn't outside in the morning, so it rained so hard that you can see how you can go out and play." Zhang Yue heard a knock on the door outside: "Who?" ”

"Senior sister, are you ready?" She heard the familiar voice of her junior brother Zheng Bei.

"Not yet, you can go down and eat first." Wu Zhen is familiar with it. Exercise. said in the Northeast dialect.

"Then let's go down first." Zheng Bei said, and there was not much movement outside.

"Early in the morning, no matter how anxious, the meeting didn't start until nine o'clock, and now you see it's only 8:15." Zhang Yue was wearing pants, and for the first time in her three years of graduate school, she went to Xing in the province where her hometown is located with her brothers and sisters. Yang is on a business trip, and he sets an early alarm clock every day, for fear that he will be left behind by his brothers and sisters.

Walking in the long corridor on the fifth floor, she remembered that when she came back at eleven o'clock last night, she was also walking in the corridor here, and Zhu Jia was behind her: "This corridor is too narrow and long, I don't know why I have a very good feeling when I walk here. Itchy. Very. Urgent. feelings. ”

The two of them walked to the restaurant on the first floor, Zhang Yue took a look, except for Senior Sister Yan Ruo and Senior Sister Ke Xuebing, one of their classmates from the teaching and research department sat at a large round table, Teacher Wang Xiang and her son Zhou Dongdong, Teacher Chu Yixiang and Han Siming sat on the long table of four people by the window next to them.

"The meeting doesn't start until nine o'clock, and you all came early enough." Zhang Yue looked at the large group of juniors and sisters in front of the round table, and put down the black shoulder bag in his hand.

"Teacher Zhao is urging people in the group at 7:50." Senior sister Sun Tian said.

Zhu Jia saw this state once in the morning, he was still holding a spoon with cold rice porridge in his right hand, and opened WeChat again with his left hand and flipped through the previous state: "Everyone: You can have breakfast on the first floor here, you don't have to wait until eight o'clock, I'm already eating!" ”

"The teachers seem to wake up pretty early." Li Xing said.

"Teacher Pan too, I used to go to the office at seven o'clock in the morning every day, and the light in Mr. Pan's office was always on." Wu Zhen and Zhang Yue's mentor resigned last year along with two other professors, and since then, the two of them have become students of Pan Yu along with Li Xing and Zhu Jia.

"But the teacher goes to bed early, and I remember that Mr. Pan said that he often goes to bed before ten o'clock." Qi Kun said.

"Senior Sister Xu Lei also said on a business trip in Zhengzhou last time that at their age, they should sleep and sleep well." Zhu Jia remembered that once at nine o'clock in the evening, Kun'er asked Senior Sister Xu Lei a question, and she said if she could talk about it tomorrow, they had already slept.

He suddenly realized a problem, age waits for no one, he is almost twenty-five, if he comes back next year, whether it is worth it or not, it is the most difficult for him to accept, the group of classmates who are more familiar with him now will graduate next year, and there will be no more Wu Ling classmates with a good personality and helpfulness.

"Zhu Jia, I heard what you meant yesterday that I was going to go back to Nan in the future. Kyo yes? Zhang Yue took a plate of breakfast and sat down, she looked at the young man who had eaten two plates on her right and asked.

"Yes, the family wants to go back to the south. Kyo is able to take care of the family. Zhu Jia said.

"You still have a way out." Zhang Yue said with some envy, "I don't know if I will continue to stay in Shanghai in the future or go back to get married according to my parents' wishes." ”

Zhu Jia remembered the last time she went on a business trip, taking a two-hour plane, a two-hour bus, a one-and-a-half-hour high-speed train, and a fifty-minute public trip. Business. The car just arrived. Mar Hotel.

'It's so far,' he thought to himself.

For him, who is accustomed to taking a two-hour high-speed train to his home, he can't accept it.

"Did you get bitten by a mosquito when you slept last night?" Zheng Bei asked.

"I don't feel like I'm sleeping. I didn't feel it at all, and I was almost paralyzed from exhaustion yesterday. Li Xing said.

"I was bitten by mosquitoes all night last night, and I barely slept much." Zheng Bei complained.

"You can ask the hotel for an electric mosquito coil, and she will send you to the room with a phone call." QI Kun. Exercise. said in the Northeast dialect.

"The last time I was on a business trip with Zhou Jie, he was bitten for one night, and I didn't have anything to do, it seems that you have the same physique as him." Li Xing replied, continuing to eat the hot pasta that had just been served in the bowl.

Zhu Jia remembered almost every word they said, he remembered the last time in undergrad, and for Wei Yuecao on campus. Secluded in every scene.
