Chapter 7 Heartbeat

Traditionally, the last day of O-Week is Club Recruitment Day.

Executives take turns going to each house to introduce their club activities and benefits to attract new students.

There are more than 100 clubs, each with its own designated booth, and the lobby on the first floor of Johnson is packed at once.

When Su Xiaoxiao and Jenn were having dinner on the weekend, I heard her mention the school's recruitment activities, which are said to be as lively as Taiwan's night markets and Japanese temple fairs.

Among so many clubs, the most sought-after are the financial club, the film club and the musical theater club.

These three clubs are the ace clubs of W University, and you can't join by submitting an application and paying the club fee, and the executives in the club need to screen the applicant's information again after submitting the application. The financial society organizes a small interview to find out how well the applicant understands finance, the film club needs to submit an additional film review, and the musical theater club needs to have a certain foundation in music and performance.

As early as before the new day of the club's group recruitment, Su Xiaoxiao thought that she wanted to apply for the financial club, firstly, because it was related to the profession and helpful for learning, and secondly... The second is because Su Xiaoxiao heard that the neighbor's brother he knew when he was a child turned out to be a graduate of Johnson Business School and is now a partner in a consulting firm on Wall Street in New York.

Su Xiaoxiao has never been in love yet, firstly, because she is not in a hurry at all because fate has not arrived, and another reason is because she has always had a favorite person in her heart, and she likes it very much.

When Su Xiaoxiao was still peeing her pants with a pacifier, the neighbor's brother would tease her with a lollipop, shake her in front of her eyes and eat it himself, and the little Su Xiaoxiao was angry and kicked her legs with his hands grabbing the air; When Su Xiaoxiao is a little older, her brother will take Su Xiaoxiao to Confucius Temple to eat snacks when the adults are not at home, Su Xiaoxiao always fills her mouth with the sugar on the sugar gourd, and the neighbor's brother will laugh at her for not even eating a sugar gourd, like an ugly duckling, but then he will gently wipe the corners of her mouth with a tissue to prevent the adults from noticing.

Su Xiaoxiao's happy childhood memories have the participation of his neighbor brother.

However, when Su Xiaoxiao was in the sixth grade of elementary school, the neighbor's brother's family decided to immigrate to Canada.

I heard from adults that my brother will go to the best business school in Canada in the future, and then make a lot of money, and he can travel to many, many countries.

At that time, Su Xiaoxiao didn't understand what immigration meant, and recognized that her brother had left her to go abroad to play by herself, so when the neighbor's brother came to say goodbye to Su Xiaoxiao, Su Xiaoxiao was still childish, and said angrily through the door Why don't you take me to Canada to play, no matter how the adults persuade her, she refuses to open the door.

In this way, six years have passed in a flash. Su Xiaoxiao has changed from a 1.5-meter-small student to a college student with excellent grades, worked hard to be admitted to the alma mater of her neighbor's brother, and stood in front of the recruitment booth of the financial society.

Because he didn't leave any contact information about his neighbor's brother, his brother's recent news was only half a word from his parents, and he didn't dare to listen to or ask more, but he didn't know why, and every time he heard the news about him, he would keep it firmly in his heart.

At the same time, what I kept in mind was the unspoken sentence, "I like you".

"Hey, what are you thinking, fill out the form, there are a lot of people waiting in line."

Jessica poked Su's arm lightly, pulling her back from the memory.

"Ah, sorry, I'll fill it in."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded apologetically at the staff who were waiting for her, and quickly picked up the pen on the table and filled in her information.

Xiaoxiao (Sue) Su, female, Johnson first year,...

“Thank you. We'll email you if you are selected to our interview. Good luck!”

The boy took the application form handed by Su Xiaoxiao, quickly checked it, filled in all the important information, and went to greet the students queuing up behind.

Su Xiaoxiao said thank you and walked out of the team.

I closed my eyes and silently recited three times in my heart, "I must be in the middle, I must be in the middle, I must be in the middle, I must be in the middle."

Although I don't know if my neighbor's brother will go to Johnson Business School in the end, and I don't know if he will return to Canada after working on Wall Street, I am full of anticipation when I think that I am getting closer and closer to him.

I don't know what he's become now, whether it's hard work or not, and... Will you have a girlfriend or get engaged?

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxiao chuckled in her heart, and didn't dare to continue thinking about it.

After sorting out my emotions, I went back to the dormitory.

"Ahh

After the club recruitment, Alice screamed and rushed into Su Xiaoxiao's room, excited beyond all the imagination of the remaining three.

"You... Won the lottery? ”

Lisa asked in a whisper, the smile on her face that she couldn't hide.

"Ahhh Su Xiaoxiao learned Alice's screaming tone and asked, "Tell us what's going on!" ”

Alice took a deep breath, pursed her lips, and said with a peach blossom on her face, "I signed up for the film club!" ”

"Congratulations!" Jessica tilted her head a little confused to look at Alice and then at the others, and said incredulously, "And then?" What makes Aris happy like this? ”

"And then, then, and then I felt," Alice said, her eyes a little shy, "I felt like I was in love with a guy!" ”

Yes?!

Lisa, Jessica, and Su Xiaoxiao screamed in disbelief at the same time, looking at each other.

"You, you, you fell in love at first sight. It feels like it's coming too fast, love is coming too fast like a tornado! Su Xiaoxiao was so surprised that she stuttered, "From the beginning, from the real photos, what the hell is going on!" ”

Alice calmed down a little, her cheeks were still flushed, she found a place to sit down, held her face and said, "Here's the story... It all started with my love for movies. When I was in elementary school, I really liked the movies that the art teacher showed in class, and every time I watched the movie on a long-distance flight, I would write about the movie on the plane, so I thought, isn't the movie club for me! And..."

"Getting to the point!"

Lisa interrupted Alice's small composition, and according to her way of speaking in circles, she didn't introduce the male protagonist until it was dark.

"yes, okay."

Alice paused, "The point is, I didn't expect the president of W Film Club to be so handsome, and he is also a Chinese!" He spoke to me in such a gentle voice. At the beginning, when he introduced the club, there were a lot of foreigners listening, and I was alone, so I was too embarrassed to interject and listen, and then I didn't hear a lot of things clearly. Later, he found out that he was super patient and talked to me again alone, super gentleman. And he really knows movies super well, and has unique insights into many movies. I think I started with my appearance and ended up with talent! ”

With that, Alice laughed happily again.

Smiled before meeting, and promised his life at the first meeting. Su Xiaoxiao had seen such a sentence in a book, and now she suddenly understood what it meant.
