Chapter 3: The World Beyond Fireworks

At the end of the holiday, Ruge said goodbye to her loved ones and prepared to return to school. Although she still has to take the train for nearly 10 hours, Ruge's mood is no longer restless, she knows what she wants, and she also knows what she can achieve through hard work, and she has a plan for herself.

Coincidentally, she met a fellow villager on the train, he took the initiative to call Ruge's name, Ruge slowly remembered: there is such a primary school classmate, in my impression, he is a runny nose, helpful little boy, but his academic performance is mediocre, Ruge and he do not have much intersection, not too familiar, as if he is Ruge's cousin's playmate, it seems to be called Zhang Qi, now he is tall, with a round head, small eyes, and a smile looks kind.

The long journey was noticeably easier because of the company of a partner. At least she can rest peacefully, no longer have to worry about the safety of valuables, and she doesn't have to be afraid of sitting and standing, and there is a ready-made "bodyguard" by her side. Maybe because he is a fellow villager, Zhang Qi took good care of Ruge along the way, and told her a lot of interesting stories about his hometown, he accidentally mentioned that Jin Bo seemed to have a girlfriend, very beautiful, as if the girl's family was running a factory, and she was a girl from a wealthy family.

Ruge is silent on the surface, but there are earth-shattering waves in his heart, no wonder Jin Bo is as cold as ice to himself. He prides himself on his excellent appearance, and the person he chooses to associate with is either equal to him, or he is either rich or expensive, and like a song, obviously neither side is occupied, although it is said that the young man is poor, but who can guarantee that you will be developed in the future, what you can see in your eyes is true! Ruge's feelings for Jin Bo are gradually relieved, he is like the most beautiful fireworks in the night sky, you can enjoy it, but you can't have it.

Through talking, Ruge learned that Zhang Qi went to school in the same city as her, and he was admitted to a three-year vocational school, which was not too far from Ruge's school. As can be seen in the song, Zhang Qi has a hazy affection between men and women in addition to the friendship of fellow villagers. After letting go of Jin Bo's emotions, Ruge doesn't reject other members of the opposite sex so much from the bottom of her heart, and she can open her heart to other boys, which can be regarded as an improvement in interpersonal communication. She finally decided to pull out the thorn that grew in her heart, although it hurts, people always have to grow.

Zhang Qi sent Ruge downstairs to the dormitory before returning to his school, 19-year-old Ruge felt care from the opposite sex for the first time, and her heart was warm, ordinary as her, it turned out that she could also get the love of people other than her family.

In the new semester of college life, Ruge wants to change her image, she can't change her appearance, but she can change the state of life, the foundation of life is inseparable from a healthy body, she decided to start fitness. She insisted on running on the school playground every day and doing sit-ups in the dormitory, and after a while, she felt a lot more energetic, and the frequent colds and fevers were gone.

There is a roommate who likes to listen to various lectures organized by the school, and she also listens to them, and the interesting speeches of experienced professors or celebrities seem to open the door to another world for her, it turns out that people can really live so wonderfully, and their professional knowledge can not only solve all kinds of problems, realize the value of their lives, but also let them be honored, and gain the respect of the society and extremely considerable wealth. Ruge's heart is full of fantasies, is it possible that one day she can become as successful as them through struggle?

The roommates meet to watch the open-air movie organized by the school, and Ruge also follows them to have fun. The class organized to climb mountains, go to playgrounds, go to outward bound training, and actively participated in songs. Occasionally, he could also receive phone calls from Zhang Qi, all of which were about inconsequential things. Such a colorful life gradually warmed up Ruge's heart, and then I realized that life can be so interesting.

One day, Ruge received a call from Zhang Qi, who said that he was coming to see her at school. She was a little happy, she rummaged through the cabinets, found her most beautiful clothes to wear, and smiled shyly in the mirror, it turned out that she valued this meeting so much, even if it might not be love.

Ruge rushed downstairs to the dormitory, saw where the neatly dressed Zhang Qi was standing, and smiled at her, Ruge heard a male voice full of sunshine calling her: "Ruge, are you okay?" ”

Ruge found out for the first time that Zhang Qi's voice was so good, Ruge smiled at him and happily agreed: "I'm fine!" "When I met my fellow villagers, I felt very cordial.

They walked side by side on the campus path, Ruge took him to see the romantic cherry blossom forest on campus, I didn't think the cherry blossoms were so beautiful before, but today I think the cherry blossoms are exceptionally beautiful. They went to the beach outside the school again, and walked a long way along the beach, chatting about the recent interesting events, both of them felt relaxed and happy, and the sea breeze on their cheeks made people feel extremely comfortable.

Suddenly, Zhang Qi stopped, stared at Ruge cautiously and asked, "Can we be one step closer than ordinary friends?" ”

Ruge was a little nervous and a little happy by him, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only avoid his gaze and look at the sea level.

Looking at the deep sea, Ruge suddenly realized: It is not accidental that Zhang Qi mentioned Jin Bo's recent situation on the train, he must know that Ruge has always liked Jin Bo, oh my God! Is Ruge's thoughts about Jin Bo so blatant? Even an outsider can see it so clearly, let alone Jin Bo himself. She once thought that as long as she didn't say it, no one would know her thoughts, and she was really self-deceptive! I can't complain that my first official meeting with Jin Bo will be so tragic.

Zhang Qi pretended to casually say the fact that Jin Bo had a girlfriend, but in fact, it made Ruge recognize the reality and give up Jin Bo. It turns out that Zhang Qi, who is tall and tall, has such a delicate mind, it seems that she has been squinted by Jin Bo in the past, and she can't see the good of other boys at all, and she has always refused to accept the good of other boys, all of which are seen by Zhang Qi.

Perhaps, far away from home, in such a big city, Zhang Qi is also lonely. Perhaps, Zhang Qi has actually been silently paying attention to her, and has strange feelings for her in his heart, but he understands her thoughts too well to declare it, he has been waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the news of Jin Bo's girlfriend, this news was finally waited for by him, but he couldn't tell Ruge immediately, it seemed too eager, pretending to meet by train, pretending to be a casual encounter with Ruge, pretending to be the news that was undoubtedly earth-shattering for Ruge, sending warmth when Ruge was physically and mentally exhausted, and infiltrating Ruge's life little by little, Zhang Qi is really attentive.

It cannot be denied that Zhang Qi's timely appearance has brought a different kind of brilliance to Ruge's life, but to say that their relationship is closer, Ruge is still repulsed. For a warm big boy who is so attentive to himself, Ruge really can't say anything to refuse. Seeing that Ruge was so silent, Zhang Qi smiled at her understandingly: "It's okay, you don't have to be pressured, you don't have to reply in a hurry." ”

Ruge was relieved, smiled at him embarrassedly, as if she had made up her mind, and said to him, "We will become good friends." ”
