003 Swan
The bus left the shopping street in the center of town, which took less than three minutes, and left the old stone-paved road and turned along an old tower, where the scenery that could be slightly connected to the noise was hidden.
A series of dusty villas appeared in front of you, and with such a sloppy glance, you can quickly distinguish which owner is taking care of it and which owner is perfunctory.
These two- and three-story buildings along the street, with small courtyards in front and back, crowded garages, chic shrubs and scattered flowers, are very inconsistent with Jiang Yi's original imagination of this country, but gradually, he can also calm down and look at everything here with an appreciative eye.
Further on, you will pass by a deserted sea of grass, and occasionally you can see a cow with bangs, and a black-faced lamb Sean, only three or two, not on a scale.
Jiang Yi leaned on the seat covered with blue velvet cloth, leaned his head on the bright yellow rail, and looked at the patches of grassland in front of him with a monotonous and lonely matte finish, and soon began to wander.
The boy in the car just now didn't look very old, and he should be about the same as himself, but his momentum was completely different.
Will they be classmates in the same grade?
But to be honest, in the interaction between international students, there is really a wall between dimensions.
For example, very few Chinese students can make white friends in the true sense of the word, this concept is relatively broad, although there are classmates from all over the world in a class or a dormitory, but in the end, most of them are still playing with their own country's classmates.
For no other reason, the cultural background is different, the growth environment is different, the stalks that can't be integrated, the laughs that you can't understand, most of the dating scenes are overturned scenes, and the topics that can be exchanged don't take three rounds, which will make Jiang Yi feel like returning to the IELTS speaking test room: Hey, what animal do you like? What movies do you like? Are there any tourist attractions in your country that you can recommend?
In short, it's the kind that can't sink and can't go to the heart.
So in this case, the boy in the car just now was able to be with a white girl, which was really something that Jiang Yi admired.
After all, the senior told a joke before, saying that Chinese boys have always lived at the bottom of the chain of love contempt, not the kind with connotation, but simply because many boys in China are different degrees of mother-treasure men, who are still "pure" in their twenties, and their personalities are more subtle and shy than foreigners, and they are also shortcomings.
Jiang Yi felt that although he didn't want to admit it, this one by one really fit him perfectly.
From the point of view of pure same-sex appreciation, the boy in the car, well, is very good.
He himself amused himself, a quick flick of his fingers on the backrest of the front seat, alas, after all, the dream of finding a girlfriend was more from the instinct of loneliness.
Of course, just think about it, it takes a lot of energy to find a girlfriend, he doesn't even like to spend that effort in college, let alone at this time, think about it, as soon as he delves into the details, he starts to have a headache, and he doesn't know what's going on, it's like he has never had a love string in his head.
Outside the car window, you can already see the towering hillside in the distance, and there is an earthy castle on it, a real castle, right on their campus, where it is said that law students will take classes, which is also the envy of real names.
The school's name plate is so secret that it doesn't even have a formal school gate, and the bus can drive all the way to the back door of the main school building.
Several students in the car stood up early.
West University is really big, there are mountains and lakes on the campus, it is a forest park at all, and it feels like someone has drawn a circle here at random, and a few teaching buildings have been built at random, and it has become a school.
The distribution of dormitories is more casual, and it takes more than half an hour to walk from the main teaching building to the temporary dormitory where Jiang Yi lives.
The paths were all woods, lined with towering huge unnamed old trees, lush and green, with vigorous trunks covered with moss that required two or three people to hug, and the only branches pierced into the clouds.
The ground was slippery after the rain, and fog rose from the depths of the forest.
When I saw the small intersection of the dormitory, a strange scream suddenly frightened people.
A humanoid monster grinned and cried wolf, and ran towards Jiang Yi, holding his neck steadily and fiercely, and his legs instantly hung in the air and clamped his waist, "Oh mom, scared the baby to death, I just thought I was going to die over there." β
"Don't talk nonsense!" Jiang Yi held his thighs and slapped him hard, "It's almost there, my old waist is about to break, you don't have enough to talk about it, go feed the swans again?" β
This koala is a classmate of Jiang Yi's dormitory, named Gu Yifan, who is shocked by his physique, but looks like a big horse monkey, but he has a cheerful temperament and is very rare.
The two of them were on the same plane when they came, and when they arrived at Edinburgh Airport, they chartered a bus to report to the school together, asked if they were a finance major, and happened to apply for the same dormitory.
Gu Yifan's English name is Steven, and the pronunciation in Chinese is Steven, Jiang Yi calls him Tiffin every time~, which sounds the same as Cuihuana~.
Gu Tifen's legs relaxed, and he jumped off Jiang Yi, still carrying half a bag of oatmeal sliced toast in his hand, and a few handfuls were swept in an orderly manner on each corner.
"It's too scary, this group of big white geese looks very elegant, this catch up with the meal is really rough and the elephant is all exposed, I will move a little slower, more than a dozen girls are all ashore, two long legs stand, one is higher than my waist, flapping their wings and chasing after the back of my ass, I can see their little tongues trembling in their throats and eyes when I turn around, you touch, my heart is turned over I go!"
What Jiang Yi couldn't suppress was a sullen smile, not violent, but the more he thought about it, the more he couldn't hold back the kind of laughter, Gu Tifen was a man who grew up in his laughter.
He saw with his own eyes that some girls ran to the lake behind to feed the swans, so that the swans fluttered, and the mother who fell didn't know them.
The scene doesn't need to be changed, just change the character to Gu Tifen, hahahaha, the blue paper chased by the goose, ouch, he laughed to death!
"Tiffany, you can grow a little longer! You just say that you owe it or not, how many girls have been crying after this swan, and you are still making do with it, do you blame yourself, or blame the goose? β
Gu Yifan saw that the swan turned around and walked away, so he held his chest and said, "Isn't this just the bread I bought expiring, I think it's a waste if I can't eat it...... Eh, what are you doing here? β
"I'm going to eat, Jimmy Chen, I've vomited all the frozen pizza for the past two days." Jiang Yi said as he walked with him in the direction of the dormitory.
"I want to eat what you said, but it's a little disgusting when you think about it, no......" Gu Yifan held his arm with one hand and stopped.
"What, I'm going to vomit when I think about it? Shall I find you a tree? Jiang Yi said with a smile.
"No," Gu Yifan furrowed his brows, "It's not advisable to waste this thing, you might as well accompany me back to the lake again." β
"No!" Jiang Yi turned his head and left.
Gu Yifan reluctantly ran two steps to catch up with him, and hugged his shoulders, "Eh, eh, you can accompany me for a trip, I won't linger this time, I'll take out the whole bread and put it on the shore, and then we'll run away." β
Jiang Yi looked at him very seriously, "I don't have long legs, you carry me on your back and come back with me, and I will accompany you." β
"Okay, let's go," Gu Yifan sneered twice, "I'll give you a head on the head!" β
"Come on!" Jiang Yi smiled very obscenely, and posed as he was ready to get on the horse.
"Damn! ...... now" Gu Yifan turned his back speechlessly, hunched his waist and tied his horse, "Please!" β
Heartlessly, the two began to gallop on the slippery path.
Soon the fog was gone, and there were a few swans swimming leisurely in the middle of the lake.
Gu Yifan let go of his hand, bent his waist to prevent Jiang Yi from slipping off his back, quickly took out the bread slices from the packaging bag, and threw them far away to the shore.
Jiang Yi's stomach trembled with laughter, he put his arms around Gu Yifan's neck and scurried up again, and when he turned his head, he saw a person sitting on the bench by the lake, his upper body was blocked by the leaves and branches, and only a pair of long legs in jeans were exposed.
There was a swan lying next to the long legs, and they were very safe with each other.
"Hey, look at the people!" Jiang Yi whispered in Gu Yifan's ear.
"Who?" Gu Yifan's gaze was lower than Jiang Yi's, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw it, and couldn't help but move a few steps over there, and paused, "He." β
Changing the position of the corner, Jiang Yi could barely see the man's face clearly.
It's kind of ...... Familiar.
"Tiffin, you let me down, I ...... this person" Jiang Yi patted Gu Yifan's shoulder and slipped down.
He remembered, just a pair of sunglasses away.
He manually patched up a pair of sunglasses for the buddy on the bench in his heart, isn't it the person in the red car who helped him solve his difficulties!
"I'm sorry, this bus has a ticket to the end, and you can't get off halfway." Gu Yifan tightly wrapped his legs, turned his head and ran like a mischief.
"I know that person, I really know, he just helped me on the street, hey, you're sick!" Jiang Yi was anxious enough, and Yu Guang saw that the boy heard the movement and looked over here.
It's too embarrassing to recognize yourself, turn your face and don't recognize people, it's naΓ―ve!
Gu Yifan didn't care about it at all, it was like being burned by fire, he just ran away, and almost scared a foraging squirrel on the way, thinking that a pervert was going to catch him, so he got together and went up the tree in a few clicks.
ran until the fork in the road where the two met just now, and Gu Yifan stuck out his tongue and threw Jiang Yi down.
It's not worth going back, Jiang Yi was a little blocked in his heart, didn't speak again, and walked to the dormitory side by side with Gu Yifan with his head stuffed.
Walking out more than ten meters, Gu Yifan bumped him with his shoulder.
He didn't squeak.
Gu Yifan bumped into him again, tilting his head and looking at him from below, "Really angry?" β
"Thought I was you." Jiang Yi snorted.
Gu Yifan put his hands in his pockets and said with a smile: "What did you say he helped you?" β
Jiang Yi paused and told Gu Yifan about the strange things he encountered on the side of the road.
"Oh, that's it, then don't think about it, and you don't have to take it to heart," Gu Yifan said casually, "It's nothing to him, I guess he may not remember." β
"You...... Know him? Jiang Yi was aroused by his curiosity, "Is it also our classmate?" β
Gu Yifan nodded, "I came earlier than us, I have been reading the language for more than half a year, I know a classmate who plays with him a lot, anyway, I feel that he ...... It's quite that, you better have less contact with him," he said and glanced at Jiang Yi, and said very sincerely, "We are not all the way." β
Jiang Yi stopped and looked at Gu Yifan puzzled.
"I'm serious," Gu Yifan sighed, "that's how you should feel, right?" Although we haven't officially started classes yet, you can see that these domestic students are like us who have never been out of society and come here directly after graduating from college, right? It's all bird-like. β
"Hmm." Jiang Yi nodded.
"But they're not, it's ...... to read the language for so long," Gu Yifan's voice was a little softer, "Either they came out of Pheasant University, or they were junior college students, or they worked for a long time and came back." β
"No, your idea is very dangerous," Jiang Yi frowned at him, "Even so, why are you not the same as us?" β
"You listen to me," Gu Yifan's cheeks twitched, "I didn't mean that, didn't I just say it, I also know a few buddies in language classes, they are all very good, I said, it's Ge Zheng." β
His name was ...... Kudzu Zheng? Jiang Yi was stunned.
Gu Yifan nodded, and then said: "He worked for a period of time after graduation, but he is not serious, the kind of fool, what if he comes here, or continue to mix, do you understand?" Just the kind on the street," he twitched a few times with his fingers out of his pocket, "Forget it, you stupid white sweet, you can't understand it at all." β
"Your sister is stupid and sweet!" Jiang Yi kicked him, "I haven't eaten pork, I haven't watched a pig run, I haven't gone abroad, I haven't watched an American drama or a British drama, you don't talk nonsense, and then, go on." β
"And then? Oh, oh! Gu Yifan said, "In short, he doesn't just do this, he does everything, haven't you seen it in the Chinese community on the school website?" In the advertising column, eight out of ten were posted by him, what kind of pick-up and drop-off, moving people, subleasing second-hand houses, messy, he did it all. β
Jiang Yi's mouth was quite round, but the exclamation did not come out substantively, and only said: "That's pretty awesome, this kind of person also has the advantages of this kind of person, maybe it will be ...... at any time."
"You can rest," Gu Yifan interrupted him directly, "Some people say that he even got the money to study abroad in exchange for the rich woman, your character, you taste," he raised his eyebrows, "This is a matter of character." β
"Who's someone?" Jiang Yi felt that his focus always seemed to be a little problematic.
"I didn't find out that you were so forced, someone is someone anyway, I heard it in private, I don't know if it's true or not, but there is no wind and no waves." Gu Yifan's tone was raised.
Jiang Yi shook his head, "You are like gossip in the class when you were in high school and junior high school, and your credibility is really ......."
"Believe it or not, pull it down if you don't believe it!" Gu Yifan raised his eyes and saw the dormitory building, sat down on the steps at the gate, and took out the cigarette case from his pocket very arrogantly, "Just remember that I am for your good...... Are you going back or not? I smoked a cigarette first, and the last time I opened the window in the dormitory to smoke, I even triggered the smoke alarm, and the dormitory manager fined me fifty pounds. β
"The whole building has been evacuated, and I want you to pay fifty pounds cheaper." Jiang Yi patted him on the shoulder, even if he said hello, he went directly into the dormitory building.
The small room in the dormitory was cramped.
On the right hand side of the entrance is a wooden wardrobe with double doors, and on the left there is a washstand, and there is only a single bed and a writing desk in it, and there is no other space.
It's cramped, but it's not cheap, he inquired, and it's half as expensive as renting a house in town.
Do you want to change rooms after school starts?
Jiang Yi pushed open the window, the wind blew on his face, his mind was a little messy, and he could always remember what Tiffin said.
In case it's all true...... No, even if it's only 50% true, then Ge Zheng is really the same person as them.
