Before being assigned to the new class, Shen Yuanyuan was still under the management of the previous counselor, so a week before returning to school for the resumption of school, Shen Yuanyuan asked the counselor at that time when she should return to school. The counselor said that it would come at the same time as the new students.

So, in early September, Zhou Minggao and Shen Yuanyuan took the high-speed train to the city where her university is located. In fact, Zhou Minggao had already started school at this time, but he still insisted on asking for leave to come over - and it was "cut first and then played", and he asked for leave before telling Shen Yuanyuan that he had started school, so that Shen Yuanyuan didn't even have a chance to persuade him not to come with him.

There was a big air conditioner on the high-speed rail, which made Shen Yuan tremble a little. Before she could speak, Zhou Minggao first draped his coat over her, and then adjusted the air conditioner above his head in other directions. After doing this, he asked Shen Yuanyu, "Is there any better?" ”

She nodded and smiled at him.

There are quite a lot of people on this high-speed train, and most of the people in this carriage got on the train in the early morning, and everyone blocked the curtains and slept in dim conditions. Shen Yuanyu didn't feel sleepy, but in order not to make noise to others, she and Zhou Minggao didn't communicate much.

After sitting for a while, Shen Yuanxuan lifted the curtain next to him a little. "You say, how often will we meet in the future?" The speed of the high-speed train was very fast, and Shen Yuan only felt a little dizzy when he looked out the window, and he didn't see any good scenery. She put down the curtains, looked back at Zhou Minggao, and asked such a sentence.

Zhou Minggao said, "I will go to see you whenever I have time." I will take you to the playground on National Day, and when you celebrate your birthday, I will come to celebrate your birthday with you. ”

Shen was silent.

It's not that she feels dissatisfied with seeing too little, nor does she not believe that Zhou Minggao will often visit her, on the contrary, she feels that Zhou Minggao's statement confirms what she has been worried about - she is too inseparable from Zhou Minggao, and he is very good to herself, she is worried that they will meet too often and spend too much.

Falling in love is not an easy task, for Shen Yuanyuan, falling in love is not just as simple as falling in love, and practical factors have to be considered. But she is at an age where she should love and live by "feeling". Shen Yuanyuan knew that during the days with Zhou Minggao, the two of them did not deliberately control their expenses, because they had just been together, so of course they wanted to give each other all the good and what they could give. But she also knows that she is different from Zhou Minggao. Even if Zhou Minggao is still a student, he at least has the support of his parents and a solid family background as a way out, what about her? She didn't have anything.

If you think too much about money in love, you will start to become rusty. Shen Yuanyuan is well aware of this truth, and she also wants to happily "just fall in love", but obviously, she can't.

After her father died, she left behind two houses, one of which she now lives in, and the other has been sold to pay for her college education. She couldn't squander the money with it, she knew she didn't have that right. The past few months with Zhou Minggao had already cost far more than she had planned, and she knew that Zhou Minggao would only spend more than her. But that time was supposed to be like this, if you weren't enthusiastic at the beginning of the relationship, then this relationship was really too rational. But after the enthusiasm is over, everyone must return to calm and normal.

In the summer, she didn't want to leave that summer. Because she knew that it would be difficult for such a day to come again. She had run out of opportunities to really "go free and easy without thinking about anything" like that.

Summer is over, and she can only live the life that ordinary people are living if she works harder.

After arriving at the school, Shen first went to hand in the recovery certificate, and then went to last year's counselor to get two forms. The next thing she has to do is to find the various leaders of the school to sign, sign this form and hand it back, even if the task is completed. This should have been quite easy, but now that it is time for the new students to register, and the leaders are not in their own offices, it is still difficult for Shen Yuanyuan and Zhou Minggao to find them one by one in order. As soon as the watch was signed halfway, Shen Yuanyuan couldn't move.

"You take a break here, I'll go buy two drinks." When passing by an area for parents of new students to rest, Zhou Minggao said to Shen Yuanyuan. Shen Yuan nodded and found a place to sit down.

This school has its own uniform. At every flag-raising ceremony and important occasion, everyone will wear a school uniform. Because Shen Yuanyuan didn't wear a school uniform, several seniors recommended her as a freshman for a while, and Shen Yuanyuan was not embarrassed to stop her. Besides, she didn't know if she was a freshman now—maybe half of it.

Zhou Minggao sat next to her after buying a drink and came back, he first helped her unscrew the cap of the bottle, and then opened his own bottle and took two sips. He said, "It's going to be a hassle in your dormitory, so you have to ask earlier." It's useless to ask your counselor last year, but after you know who the new counselor is tomorrow, go directly to her and ask her to arrange it for you. ”

As soon as Shen Yuanyuan wanted to say, "How do you know", he remembered what Zhou Minggao said when he was drunk that day. His many previous "prophecies" are probably because of this.

Shen Yuan nodded, "Okay, I'm resting, let's go ahead and catch the next leader." ”

The leaders' offices are usually on the fourth or fifth floor of the administrative building, and Zhou Minggao and Shen Yuanyuan have repeatedly turned around in front of the freshman registration office and the administrative building, and have climbed the stairs countless times. Towards the evening, there were finally only two forms left, and Shen Yuanyuan was very happy, feeling that it was finally about to be completed. Unexpectedly, when she knocked on the door of the penultimate leader, she found that the leader was her director of the academy last year, and she was promoted and changed offices.

The director said in a weird way, "Ah, Shen Yuanxuan is back." ”

Shen Yuanyuan said a little helplessly, "Good director."

The director looked at her with a smile and signed the form as he took the form in her hand. "Come back this time and go to school well, don't toss so many things." When she said this, she was arrogant, probably thinking of Shen Yuanyuan as a problem student who had been reflecting at home for a year.

Shen Yuanyuan didn't bother to say more to her, so he smirked and nodded, "Got it, thank you, director." ”

I thought that I would be able to take the signed form and go to the principal to sign the last item, but I didn't expect the director to suddenly ask again, "You came by yourself?" ”

Zhou Minggao was waiting outside at this time. Shen Yuanyuan felt that if the director knew that her boyfriend was accompanying her, she didn't necessarily have to be sarcastic, so she hurriedly said, "Yes, I came by myself." ”

"That's quite fast, such two forms are signed at this time, and it normally takes two days to sign."

Shen Yuanyuan didn't know what she meant, she just wanted to leave quickly, so she nodded casually.

"That's right, you only have one left anyway, come, help me get this stack of books to the library." The director pointed to a stack of books on the floor—most of them were textbooks. "When I sent it to the staff on the first floor of the library, I said that Director Ren asked me to send it."

The male teacher sitting next to the director also seemed to realize that Shen Yuanqian was being troubled, but he just glanced up without saying anything, and did not speak.

Shen Yuanyuan had no choice but to carry this stack of books and go out.

Zhou Minggao was waiting for her outside the door, and as soon as he saw her, he took all the books.

The library is not close to the administrative building, so Zhou Minggao said to her, "I'll just send it, you can sign the last item first." ”

Shen Yuan shook his head. "The principal's office is next door to that old witch, and if she bumps into me and appears there so soon, I don't know what will happen." As he spoke, Shen took half of the book. "And it's quite heavy, how can I leave you alone."

After delivering the books, they rushed back to the administrative building. But when he arrived at the door of the principal's office, Shen Yuanyuan found that the principal's office had been locked. She went to the assistant office opposite the principal's office and asked, and the assistant said that the principal had just left. The grievances accumulated after a tired day were about to explode at this time, and Shen Yuan's tears kept rolling in her eyes, but she still endured it. Zhou Minggao was beside her, standing silently with her.

"It's hard at the beginning." Shen Yuan's voice was very small, as if it was for himself. "Everything is difficult at the beginning, and it will be better later."

Zhou Minggao didn't speak, just raised his hand and gently helped her comb her somewhat messy hair.

Because the dormitory has not yet been completed, Shen Yuanyuan followed Zhou Minggao to live in an outside hotel today. They chose a very cheap place to live, so the condition of the house was not very good, dark and cramped. Shen Yuanxuan had been lying quietly on the bed without speaking, so Zhou Minggao deliberately teased her and asked her, "Do you think it's better to be here or the desert island in Y City?" ”

However, Shen Yuanyuan didn't smile, she said, "The desert island is good, if I can always be by your side and don't have to face the people I hate, I am willing to stay on the desert island for the rest of my life." After speaking, she found that Zhou Minggao was also silent. She regretted it a little, wondering if she was too dependent on Zhou Minggao. Will this make Zhou Minggao feel that she is a love brain, and will she be looked down upon by Zhou Minggao?

As a result, Zhou Minggao said, "If you want to go to school, I will do everything I should do to let you go to school with peace of mind." If one day you don't want to go to school and want to get out of here, I'll take you away. When we first got together, I said that I support you in whatever decision you make, do you remember? ”

"I remember." Shen Yuan turned his head to look at him, "Don't worry, I should just not leave home for a long time and am not used to it, I will go to school well." ”

"Lingering." Zhou Minggao interrupted her, "I want you to know that I don't love you because of any strings attached, if you want me to rest assured, be happy every day and love yourself well is what reassures me." Do what you want, anything. ”

"And what if I do something bad?"

"You won't."

"And what if I made the wrong decision?"

"Everyone is just choosing a different path, and there is no right or wrong."

Shen Yuanxuan stopped talking. After being silent for a while, she asked Zhou Minggao, "Why are you so good to me?" Is this coddling? ”

Zhou Minggao smiled. "You have already suffered a lot of hardships that your peers can't eat, and even if you exchange the same amount, you deserve some sweetness that no one can get."

Shen Yuan moved to his side and leaned on his shoulder. At that moment, she suddenly felt that she was not afraid of anything. She believes that Zhou Minggao will not change her mind about her because she is excellent or not, but she wants to be better, for him and for herself.

In "that life", she chose to jump off the building, and she must have encountered something very serious, very bad, and very capable of defeating her later. Shen Yuanyuan had already made up her mind that no matter what that incident was, no matter how painful she was, she would stay.

Must live. She wanted to live.
