Chapter 32: Light Years Away

The tip of the pen is drawn on the test paper to answer the questions, and after filling out the pile of answer sheets, it is like a farewell letterhead, and it is sent to the school's archived letterbox. Later, at Changnan University, I always heard a few strange screams, penetrating the last ray of sunlight through the cracks and covering the entire teaching building. As if looking forward to this holiday, they will be able to indulge until they are old.

"Wow, it's over!"

"Liberated!"

"Fuck it, damn textbook!"

Lin Shen threw a handful, threw away the books, and returned to the dormitory with cheers. The pages of the book rose in the air, and the cold wind swept away in a "whoosh" protest, tormenting the soul.

Lu Bing curled off the earphones and exhaled a long breath, frowning like a deflated balloon: "The question is not right, and the exam question cleverly avoids the scope of my knowledge!"

"Juju, the game is more important than your life, you take the test with a fluke mentality, it's strange if you don't fail the course!" Zhang Qingru was relaxed, and after entering the dormitory, he faced the mirror, made the powder box, and pounced his whole face white.

Lin Shen listened to her words and found that Jiang Xiaomian had not entered the door for a long time, "Huh? What about Xiaomian? Did I see her just now? ”

"Oh, she was walking behind me just now." Lu Bing ran out of the dormitory and took a look, but still didn't see where Jiang Xiaomian was.

The new year is coming with unstoppable steps, and the whole Changnan is waiting for the grass to grow and warbler to fly in February, and the dead leaves of the kapok tree have long been crushed into dust. Jiang Xiaomian guessed that in the next season, those dead leaves would be reincarnated into kapok. And Xiang Dongyang's shadow still stays on the empty campus, guarding the time of the pulse to greet the next meeting.

"Xiaomian, it's a holiday, if you're bored, you want to come and play with me, or I'll go to your house to find you, but don't see me..."

Jiang Xiaomian felt that he was entangled by a playful child, pursed his lips, did not smile, and did not say yes or no, "You pulled me out, is that what you mean?" ”

Xiang Dongyang nodded hopefully, waiting for her to agree. In the next month or so, if he doesn't try to see this familiar face, he may go crazy with discomfort.

"Well, okay then."

Just because of Jiang Xiaomian's words, Xiang Dongyang stood in place and jumped two feet high excitedly, and suddenly a basin of water fell from the sky, drenching the two of them with water, and they were stunned in place, but fortunately, the water was just clear water.

"It's great if someone likes it!" On the balcony of the dormitory, there was the sound of Ye Yao smashing the basin and resentment, and the plastic basin thought that it was the bad luck of pouring a basin, and it was broken into two by Ye Yao.

Jiang Xiaomian's eyes were drenched with water, and he couldn't open them for a long time, as if he was attacked by a strong sun and closed to protect himself, and his eyelashes were wet under his eyelids, which made him look even more slender and thick. Xiang Dongyang hurriedly raised his sleeves to wipe the water off her face, Jiang Xiaomian saw the two of them looking so embarrassed, looked at each other dumbfounded, and smiled, and didn't reason with Ye Yao, just treated it as a big windwiper.

The entire dormitory building, every school season and winter and summer vacation season, has experienced a world upside down, even the sound of running is a "boom" loud noise, noisy, chaotic, large and small bags also occupy the corridor aisle.

Li Xiaohuan rolled up her clothes and packed her things, and when she saw that Jiang Wanguan was still reluctant, she laughed at her: "Wanguan, why are you cleaning up so slowly, you can't bear to be your sweetheart!" ”

"Stop, stop, get in, ah!"

"Lily, be careful, don't blow up your suitcase!"

Julie is using her invincible fat weight to force the suitcase, violently trying to make the zippers at the left and right ends meet, and the snack area in the box takes up most of the area, and Julili's brutal method is eager to turn them into compressed biscuits.

"I don't believe it, a weight of one hundred and sixty pounds can't subdue this box of things!" After Juli finished speaking, she pressed her body hard again, until the sound of the potato chip packet exploding sounded in the box, and everyone laughed, and she refused to stop.

Zhu Lili came up with a way and said: "Wanguan, your suitcase is one inch bigger, let's change it, anyway, your family will drive a car to pick you up, carry a small schoolbag and leave with a 'whoosh'!" ”

Jiang Wanwan glanced at Zhu Lili's heavy suitcase, which she had given each of them one at the beginning.

"Here you go, I don't have anything I want to pretend, you can use it." Jiang Wanwan said and pushed the suitcase to Zhu Lili's side.

Juli was so happy that she poured out the snacks and clothes and piled them into Jiang Wanwan's box.

"Lily, we're going home, not going on a spring outing, are you going to buy so many snacks?"

Juli squeezed a packet of spicy strips and stuffed them in, and replied, "This is all the food I took on the train, and my home is far away!" As he spoke, he zipped up his suitcase and said goodbye.

Jiang Wanguan really didn't have anything to pack, so she picked up her new LV backpack and came to the boys' dormitory building to wait for Han Feiran.

"Lu Xiaoguo, is Han Feiran still in the dormitory?"

When Lu Xiaoguo took the game console to return it to Lin Shen, he went downstairs and met Jiang Wanguan, and said, "Otherwise, he left early in the morning." ”

Jiang Wanguan couldn't say anything else after hearing this, so she turned around and left with a "oh", and met Dai Shiqian unexpectedly.

"Late Guan"

Jiang Wanguan pretended not to see him and walked by. Dai Shiqian obviously called her, but Jiang Wanguan's pretense was obviously ignored.

Dai Shiqian stared at Jiang Wanguan's hurried back, and the loss in his heart suddenly rose, like a highly poisonous insect that had eaten by mistake and suffered from the pain of poisonous strangulation of the internal organs, the corpse lay in a dark corner and let the mildew thrive, hollowing out the entire wreckage, the wind blew, dried the body, and was stepped on by Jiang Wanguan with one foot and one print.

Then, time and all things continue to operate with the rotation of the earth, and Dai Shiqian, who is shackled by loss, is trapped in a corner where no one notices.

"Master, Zhuochi Hotel."

Jiang Wanguan got into a taxi, yes, it's a taxi. She leaned back on the seat, and Zhu Lili's sentence "Anyway, your family drove a car to pick you up, carried a small schoolbag and left with a 'whoosh'" lingered in Jiang Wanwan's mind, and a thorn pierced her heart. She didn't want to pay attention to this sentence, and turned her head sideways to close her eyes to rest, but Xian Xinchen's car passed by her vision outside the window.

"Only those with good lives have family to pick them up." Jiang Wanguan laughed at herself, no matter how much she lived next to her aunt, she was always not as good as Jiang Xiaomian.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are about to arrive at Changnan Airport, the plane is still taxiing, please fasten your seat belts. The ground humidity is nineteen degrees Celsius, thank you! ”

The plane landed on the slideway and slowly terminated the taxi, after the cabin door opened, the first step out of the landing was a pair of diamond-encrusted high heels, Xiang Xi Yan pulled the suitcase, and held a fiery red coat on her arm, she breathed hard, and sighed in her heart: "The air in my hometown is still so refreshing and comfortable." ”

Although she has passed the budding 28 flowers, the twenty-three years of time are a gorgeous winter red plum for her, and the years have given her a snowy face with pink skin. It is said that "women are flesh and bones made of water", and Xiang Xiyan is actually a beauty from the snowdrift. The red lips under the sunglasses are bright and vulgar, and the bright smile and white teeth are like snow. The chestnut hair and the slender waist under the beret are matched with the white chiffon dress of autumn and winter, shuttling through the flow of people like the wind and snow, and like a light cloud to avoid the moon when turning the road. The perfume on her body is from the HERMES Nile perfume, and the lingering fragrance is scattered in every corner she walks, and people passing by her can't help but look back, but unfortunately she wears sunglasses and can't see the whole fairy face at a glance.

"Sister, sister!"

Xiang Xiyan took off her sunglasses after hearing her brother's voice, and looked in the direction of the call with a pair of graceful eyes: "Dongyang!"

Xiang Dongyang came to her sister's side, and the sister and brother hugged her warmly after six years.

"You're getting taller again!" Xiang Xiyan said as she measured her brother's height with her hands.

"Where's Mom and Dad?" Xiang Xiyan glanced around.

"They, at home, they will wash the wind and dust for you, wash their hands and make soup, if it is me who comes back from abroad, it is estimated that they will not have this treatment!"

Looking at Dong Yang pouting with a look of envy and jealousy, Xiang Xiyan pointed out the truth in one sentence: "You dare to complain that you don't have this treatment?" From childhood to adulthood, your parents didn't worry about you! ”

"Sister, if you don't return to China, I thought you had found a good match in the shining United States!" Xiang Dongyang shrank his head and stuck out his tongue again, afraid of being retaliated by his sister, so he hurried to the front of the car and helped her open the car door.

Xiang Xiyan pursed his lips and glanced at Xiang Dongyang after getting into the car, and said with a smile: "Yo, you can think of this idea, since you say so, you have found a good match in the university!" ”

is worthy of being a sister and brother, Xiang Dongyang turned his head with a smile after hearing the words, and Xiang Xiyan caught the clue at a glance: "Nuo, you still want to make fun of me, but expose yourself!" ”

Xiang Dongyang immediately changed the topic: "Sister, then you have been abroad for so long, with your beauty, I don't believe that there are no suitors, and you haven't taken a fancy to any of them?" ”

"Nope!"

Xiang Xiyan's answer was very firm, and she sighed silently: "Three hundred and sixty days a year, it is difficult to find the person you like for ten years!" Once he meets him one day, he will not let go for the rest of his life. ”

"Sister, don't be weird to me, you're not an eighteen-year-old girl, don't pick and choose and end up being an old girl!"

"Your mouth is still so tricky, I'm sucking it up, see what you do to coax the little girl!" Xiang Xiyan said jokingly and moved, and suddenly a sudden brake and two people rushed forward.

"Driver Kong, what's wrong?"

Driver Kong looked at the scene in front of him and turned his head to explain the reason: "There seems to be a traffic jam ahead." ”

Xiang Xiyan looked out of the car window and smiled after hearing this: "It's Hailou Road, I remember that this road is not a prosperous area, why was it blocked here as soon as I came back today?" ”

"Tsk", Driver Kong smacked his lips and said: "Miss, this is not the time." This road, because after the construction and expansion of Shengxing Real Estate, their head office was set up here, and it is no longer the old road that was broken back then! No, I heard that Shengxing Real Estate is going to set up a charity foundation, I think, all the way is blocked by Haotou's cars! ”

"Shengxing Real Estate?" Xiang Xiyan quickly recalled in his brain: "Is it Shengxing Real Estate, which was declared bankrupt back then? ”

"Yes, that's him! The eldest lady has a really good memory, and you were not old at the time, so you can remember this thing. ”

Xiang Xiyan nodded, and praised in concise words: "I heard that after the comeback, it can be said that it stands out from the crowd in the real estate industry!" It is really not Ji Tailai, when they were in an economic crisis, no one sent carbon in the snow, and now they are coming back strong, overwhelming their peers in one fell swoop, I know what it means to be called 'east wind overwhelms west wind', I have to say that their boss's resistance to pressure and survival is tenacious! ”

Xiang Dongyang was bored with their topic, only paying attention to the road conditions, and shouted: "Hey, hey, the car is moving!" ”

The car in front was moving slowly, and when he passed by the door of the Shengxing Group building, he glanced at Xi Yan unintentionally, and saw a handsome man in formal dress, who should have sent his distinguished guest and waved away. As the speed of the car increased, the line of sight towards Xi Yan shifted backwards, and when he wanted to take a more look, he gradually disappeared and could no longer see clearly, so he could only look at the old scene along the way.

"Mom, I'm back!"

Xiang Xiyan shouted loudly after entering the door, and Xiang Father also hurriedly came out of the kitchen to greet him after hearing it.

"Dad"

Xiang Dongyang was reluctant to let go when his parents hugged his sister, and sat on the sofa with a pretended aggrieved expression: "It seems that I am going to fall out of favor!" ”

Xiang Xiyan pulled him up from the sofa and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's eat, I'm hungry." ”

The family was happy at the dinner and sighed to his father: "Our family hasn't been so together for a long time." ”

Xiang brought a plate of sour jujube cake to his mother: "No matter how Qi is, it won't be long before Qi Qi is ready, Xi Yan, the female is not left!" ”

Xiang Dongyang immediately gave his sister a look when he heard this: "How about it, sister, I reminded you a long time ago, my mother will definitely mention this stubble!" ”

Xiang Xiyan secretly stepped on him: "Please remove the word "old" before calling your young and beautiful sister!" ”

"Xi Yan, do you have any plans when you come back?" Xiang Mu continued to ask.

Xiang Xiyan paused and quipped: "What can I do, help my father take care of the company, is it possible that you can bear to kick me out of the country!" ”

"Xi Yan, do you know that the plan that my mother asked is not this plan, is it intentional?"

Xiang's father interjected on the side: "It's still a daughter who is sensible, and she still knows how to serve the company after returning from her studies abroad, and she is in a hurry to get married, not to go to her mother-in-law's house to worry about making money, and to take care of housework after work, it is better to stay in her mother's house!" ”

After so many years of husband and wife, Xiang's mother has long seen through her husband Xiangyan, a naked businessman's thoughts, and the fat water does not flow to outsiders!

The family chatted about family life, and told them interesting stories about the United States, how the school system was, how the work was, how the classmates were there, and what the American style was. Until the next morning, when I woke up, I was still tired and a little lazy, but I still barely managed to cheer up.

After Xiang Xiyan entered the kitchen, he didn't see Dong Yang go downstairs for breakfast, and guessed with a smile: "Dong Yang shouldn't have gotten up, right?" Eat and sleep at the beginning of the holiday!"

"Dongyang, it's time for breakfast!" Xiang Mu yelled upstairs.

Xiang Xiyan smiled and said, "I'll call him and watch me pull him down!"

"Dongyang, get up..."Xiang Xiyan came to the room and called a few times, there was no movement inside, she twisted the door, and the room was not locked.

The scene in front of me is still familiar: the quilt that has fallen off the bed, the pillow that has turned on its side, the messy books lying on the bed, the paintbrush on the ground has fallen to the ground, and the people do not know where to go, and it looks like a crime scene after a burglary. Only the sketch girl in the frame is the neatest and pleasing thing in the room. Xiang Xiyan sighed: "It's like you can't take care of yourself in life!"

As he spoke, he walked in, shook off the quilt on the ground, folded it, and laid the pillow flat. Then I packed up the books scattered on the bed, which were "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Jinghua Smoke and Clouds". These two books are enough to surprise Xi Yan: "How could Dong Yang like to read this?" Thinking about it, he looked at the girl in the painting and shook his head and laughed.

Xiang Xiyan put the book back on the desk, and the table was dirty and messy, and the desktop was scribbled into colorful colors by paintbrushes, gradually covering up the original oak white, and the dust that had not been wiped for a long time also erased those colorful colors. It is not an exaggeration to say that this table is a relic excavated from the old earth, and it is almost a cultural relic label. Xiang Xiyan frowned with a look of disgust, found a rag, and wiped off some dust. As the rag wiped off, a piece of paper fell out of the corner of the desk.

"What is this?" When Xiang Xiyan picked it up and looked at it, it was a business card, and she pronounced the name:

"Xian Xinchen, general manager of Shengxing Group..."

"Flame, Flame..."

Xiang Xiyan heard his mother's call, and subconsciously stuffed his business card into his pocket: "Here..."

When Xiang's mother saw her daughter coming down alone, she knew most of it, and muttered: "This Dongyang is really, the elder has long been away from home."

Xiang Father put down the newspaper and inserted a sentence: "Come on, your first day as a mother?" Home will always be a place where he can't jump!" Then he said to his daughter, "Xi Yan, Dad has a task to send you, are you interested?" ”

Xiang Xiyan sneered: "Dad, you didn't say anything, just ask people if they are interested." ”

handed a newspaper to Xi Yan to his father: "You see, Shengxing Real Estate is really going to win the hearts of the people, it's not enough to rebuild an orphanage, the opening of the new real estate has been postponed, and a foundation has been set up to reclaim wasteland in the suburbs of Erxi City to expand public welfare, tsk, I think this fat difference can't be handed over to others!"

Xiang handed a glass of milk to Xi Yan to his mother, and asked Xiang Father, "Do you want to win over their architectural contacts?"

"Xiyan, what do you think?"

Xiang Xiyan saw through her father's public thoughts at a glance: "Dad, don't you want to invest in the foundation, get a good name!"

When Xiang Father heard this, he immediately gave a thumbs up: "Your daughter can be taught, sure enough, she has more foresight than your mother!"

"Husband, you forgot that we didn't lend them money back then, and now Shengxing Real Estate hasn't said a word to us, let's stick a cold ass to a hot face?"

Xiang raised his old eyebrows and waved his hand: "Hey, we were not the only ones who didn't lend a helping hand in their economic crisis back then, if he had been isolated from the business circle earlier, besides, we were going to send money this time, how could we not accept it!"

Xiang Xiyan returned from studying in the United States, her ability should not be underestimated, and she half-jokingly took over the business: "God arranged for me to come back, it turned out that 'the sky will descend on the people'!"

Xiang Xiyan's words were so happy that Xiang Father couldn't close his mouth, and explained to her: "Then you can prepare and represent our Xiang Group to participate in the establishment of their charity fund in the evening."

“OK!”

Xiang Xiyan made an OK gesture and returned to the room, mentioning Shengxing Real Estate, she suddenly remembered the business card that she had just turned out from Xiang Dongyang's table, so she took it out of her pocket and looked at it. The thin business card is only an inch short distance from Xiang Xiyan's gaze, but it is like thousands of light years away in the universe.

The name swept up with a clear wave of water, soaking Xiang Xiang's fiery fantasy into a blue bordering the sky, and she floated on the surface of the sea with a daze, and began to imagine how bright Xian Xinchen's eyes were; What if it were compared to the stars in the twilight? What is the curvature of the corners of his eyes when he is happy; What happens if you frown when you are sad? Or how close was the distance to the day he first looked at him?
