The school celebration process of Nancheng No. 6 Middle School is nothing new, it is nothing more than an opening speech, a review of the school history, guest speeches, cultural programs, and a luncheon.

There are still some small differences in the details, for example, there is usually only one alumni who speaks, but this year it is two. One is a famous entrepreneur, who is a representative of traditional alumni, and the other is Shen Qingmeng, a representative of young alumni.

Obviously, an alumnus like her is more popular with students, and the applause when she came to the stage was enthusiastic.

Shen Qingmeng stood on the stage, looking at the young and eager faces in the audience, and a few familiar faces in the teacher's seat, and the official wording that was prepared, and suddenly he didn't want to say it.

"Hello everyone, I'm Shen Qingmeng. This name may only be barely remembered by the teachers, and the younger students are completely unaware of it. Online, people prefer to call me 'Luna'. ”

As soon as the name was announced, there was a small exclamation among the students.

Shen Qingmeng has always been bound to Ji Xinghe to become an "Internet celebrity", although Ji Xinghe has been out of gas for four or five years now, and Shen Qingmeng is not very active, but the recording and broadcasting of her live courses are still popular.

Many of the recommended review tutorials on the Internet will recommend "It is recommended that if the foundation is not good, go and see the 400+ hours of high school knowledge point framework explanation of Luna".

After reading the course, you will naturally learn some stories about the moon god and the star god. This is exactly the topic that young people are interested in, so Shen Qingmeng's popularity among students is still very high.

"It seems that I'm not too bad compared to a former pro."

During the speech, he did not forget to tease Ji Xinghe, and the students let out a low laugh.

"Ten years ago, I sat in your seat and listened to the speeches of the alumni representatives, and I said to the students around me, 'Ten years from now, I will also be a famous alumnus invited by the university'. While reading a book, my classmate asked me, 'Xiang Yu meets Qin Shi Huang?' My classmate's name is Yang Li, and the students who participated in the math competition should know him a little. ”

When Yang Li was in college, he won the gold medal in the International Mathematics Competition, so he still has a certain reputation among the students who participated in the mathematics competition, especially since he graduated from Nancheng No. 6 Middle School.

Sure enough, there was a whisper of conversation in the student seats.

Shen Qingmeng waited for a few seconds and continued: "Now it seems that what Yang Li said is not accurate, and I did not replace it, but represented another new and energetic industry practitioner. But in fact, it's very strange, strictly speaking, I belong to the traditional camp, but I am eye-catching with the emerging camp, standing at the junction of the two, so I pulled out my typical model as a representative, in fact, I can't represent anyone, and no one needs me to represent. ”

Shen Qingmeng's former head teacher, Wang Yun, listened to the audience for a while, and the more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong.

Thinking of Shen Qingmeng's "bad deeds" when she was studying, she couldn't help but be a little worried, she would say something that did not conform to "mainstream values".

The school arranged for alumni representatives to speak, but she said on the stage that she "can't represent anyone", isn't this a slap in the face of the school?

Ten years ago, Shen Qingmeng might have done this, but ten years later, the rebelliousness is still there, but it has changed to a gentle way of expression.

"Each of us is an individual, unique. We don't need to be represented, which means we need to be accountable to ourselves. Any decision we make is made out of our own intention, not what others think is right. ”

"Needless to say, in your opinion, my resume is very good-looking, very dazzling, even perfect. It took me less time to reach heights that many people would never reach in a lifetime. Let me give you another example. Ah Xing, his resume is legendary in the eyes of students, and in the eyes of parents and teachers, it is a prodigal son. ”

Shen Qingmeng looked at Ji Xinghe, and the students and teachers at the scene also looked at Ji Xinghe.

He sat there quietly, smiling at her. It seems that in the Internet café many years ago, Ji Xinghe also looked at her like this and asked her, what do you think?

Sixteen-year-old Ji Xinghe and sixteen-year-old Shen Qingmeng are sealed in the dust and frozen in time.

"When he decided to drop out of school to join the academy, he was also very entangled and anxious. No one knew at the time that five years later, he would win the region's first World Championship and be recorded in the history of the region. ”

"I'm not pouring chicken soup on you, what I'm trying to tell you is that there are thousands of ways to go besides studying. However, reading books is the easiest way to go. In the past few years that Ah Xing has been playing the game, he has been scolded by netizens and viewers many times, and how many grievances he has suffered, until he finally won the championship, he was praised like a tide. Reading is much simpler, he was just admitted to Beijing University, and he was regarded as a 'model of youth in the new era' by countless media. Isn't reading the easiest and best way to go? ”

"Speaking of which, you may think that what I am saying now has nothing to do with what I just said, and it is a bit contradictory. If you think about it, what I'm telling you is that reading is the best way to go, and there are many ways to go besides reading. These are the roads that you have to go to the top of the pyramid in order to be praised by those around you and to achieve success in the worldly sense. But in any case, I hope that whatever path you choose is what you want to take, and the success you have achieved is recognized by yourself, not in the so-called secular sense. Because only you will be responsible for your own life. ”

After Shen Qingmeng finished speaking, the audience was silent. No one expected that her speech would be so short, and what she didn't expect was the content.

Parents and teachers have said countless times that they are responsible for themselves. Now hearing it again, I inexplicably fell into thought.

What path should I choose? Will I regret it?

A few seconds later, I don't know who came back to their senses first, and the auditorium burst into thunderous applause.

Shen Qingmeng Shi Ran stepped down and sat back beside Ji Xinghe.

"I figured it out, and I heard you say a lot of good and reasonable things, but in fact you didn't say anything, it was all thinking questions. That's how I was deceived by you back then, and it took so many years to come back to it. ”

Shen Qingmeng smiled and squeezed his hand: "Now that I think about it, it's late, I already have to get on the thief ship and still want to run?" ”

Ji Xinghe held her hand with his backhand and rubbed it near the ring on her middle finger: "I don't want to run, these questions of yours made me face my innermost thoughts." If it weren't for you, I might have graduated and worked now, and I often wondered, if I had gone to the youth training back then, would it have been different? ”

Shen Qingmeng touched it in his pocket, took out a ring, and put it on Ji Xinghe's finger with lightning speed: "Since you don't run away, let's start the boat together." ”

The two hands clasped tightly, and the two rings reflect a soft glow in the light, witnessing all this.
