Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Exiled

The curriculum of the sublimation class is separate from the regular class.

On that day, I met the students of the sublimation class for the first time. Everyone is from ****, from different classes, different dormitories, and almost no one knows anyone.

Even after a few class meetings, I still don't remember them very well, except that I met them in every class, listened to the class together, got out of class together, and then walked away in the middle of nowhere.

My friends in the dorm just live together, and I have different schedules from them. I often returned to the dormitory alone after class, facing an empty room, and I suddenly felt that I was the only one left in the world, as if I had been abandoned by the whole world.

This is what it feels like to be exiled, driven out of the Jiangsu I am familiar with, stripped from my familiar friends, pulled out of my favorite Lin Ximeng, and now stripped out of the same dormitory.

I was alone in my dorm, eating in the cafeteria alone, and walking alone on the wide corridors of the campus. There are a lot of people on campus, from brothers and sisters walking together to couples strolling hand in hand, and it's always lively. However, the excitement does not belong to me, only the deeper and deeper loneliness, the more and more empty heart.

There is a beautifully landscaped pond in front of the dormitory building. Even though it is autumn, the willow branches on the shore still do not lose the softness of the lady, and they spread gracefully with the breeze. The grass under the trees, still green, spreads from the concrete roadway to the water's edge, like a soft carpet. Occasionally, there are several stone benches on a straw carpet, often filled with couples. I didn't want to see those couples, but I had to walk through them several times a day.

On this day, on the way back to the dormitory, I saw some couples again, who were envious and jealous, when suddenly the phone vibrate. I casually turned on the screen, thinking it was another system text message from my phone provider. Who knew that it didn't matter if you didn't look at it, you almost ran when you saw it!

It's Lin Ximeng's reply! It's really Lin Ximeng's reply!

Her avatar suddenly jumped on the QQ of her mobile phone, tugging at my heart and beating violently together.

I was overjoyed and quickly clicked on the chat.

"I'm sorry, I don't usually look at my phone." Lin Ximeng explained.

It turns out that she hasn't been in the habit of looking at her phone, unlike me, she likes to hang QQ on the computer, and also on the phone, in order to quickly upgrade, but also so that friends can see it at any time, and be able to contact me at any time, especially Lin Ximeng.

I hurriedly typed three words: "It's okay." ”

I was glad I could still get in touch with her, and my eyes couldn't help but moisten warmly. I want to tell her how much I miss her these days, and how happy I am at the moment. But when I typed a few words, I didn't feel that I could express myself well enough.

I had to delete those words and ask a more important question: "Did you also change your Nanjing number after entering the school?" ”

After a while, Lin Ximeng replied: "Yes, the school organization has been changed uniformly." ”

"Replaced by what?" I looked anxiously at the screen, hoping that she would tell me cheerfully.

Lin Ximeng didn't hesitate much, and quickly told me the new number as I wished.

I was relieved and felt that the bridge between me and Lin Ximeng had been rebuilt. After thousands of mountains and rivers, I finally found her.

"But I don't usually put my phone on me, I feel that the phone is too big and uncomfortable to put in my pocket, so I put it in the dormitory drawer." Lin Ximeng continued, "It was only when I took it out and looked at it that I found out about you. ”

"Haha, it's okay, I also think my phone is too big." I do find it uncomfortable to have my phone in my pocket, but I am reluctant to leave it because it is like her to me, and it can send me news about her at any time, and I don't want to miss a message about her for a moment.

"My parents also called me several times, but they didn't answer, and they all saw me." Lin Ximeng said.

"Then aren't you worrying your parents to death like this?" I also wanted to say that I hoped she would get used to the feeling of carrying her phone with her, but I was afraid of revealing her intentions too much, so I held back. I thought about it for a moment and asked a specific question, "Well, did you buy a computer?" ”

"No, the freshman in our school won't let me buy it."

"Oh, we don't ask for that, maybe because our profession has something to do with computers. I bought it shortly after school started. "I wish she could be like me, have a computer, and every time she goes back to the dormitory, she will turn it on and hang QQ. In this way, I can find her every day, and I can have a happy chat every day, as if she is always by my side.

"Generally, sophomores buy computers."

"Oh, that's it." I also asked Song Hongyi and He Xiaoyu before, and their school also stipulates this. It seems that only majors related to computers and informatization like ours will allow students to be equipped with computers as soon as they enter the school.

After a while, Lin Ximeng didn't say anything more, and I didn't know what else to say.

I may be able to say that I entered the key class and has the qualification of the insurance research, but I'm afraid this will hit her. Perhaps, I should wait until I graduate to tell her about my insurance research, so that I can still keep a low profile while showing my ability.

Yes, it's better to keep a low profile.

I returned to the dormitory, turned on the computer, and could still see that Lin Ximeng's QQ avatar was always on, showing that the phone was online.

I understand that her QQ has been hanging like this, but she forgot to close the QQ program on her phone. On the other hand, in her eyes, the mobile phone is just a communication tool like a landline, and she really just lets it lie quietly in a drawer and doesn't look at it.

I quietly looked at Lin Ximeng's QQ avatar, and there were three words written next to it - "Snow Moon Blue", that was her nickname, what a beautiful three things. Snow is what I like, a white expanse between heaven and earth, as pure and immaculate as her; The moon is also what I like, a bright light in the darkness, entrusting her tenderness from a distant place; Blue, what I like, is me, it is my color that she likes, and it is the connection between me and her.

The next night, the roommates all returned.

Students from Shanxi asked everyone: "Are you interested in recruiting student union cadres recently?" ”

"How do you know?" The other roommates asked.

"My senior from the Shanxi Township Association said that we can go through the internal selection channel!" The classmate said with a fluttering eyebrow.

"What is an internal selection channel?"

"It's just going straight to the interview, and it's the priority interview over others."

"That's not bad, you can try it, although I don't have much hope." The classmates from Hubei said, "Anyway, I also joined the Hubei Hometown Association, and you all have the Hometown Association." ”

"There are Hunan people everywhere here, how can you want any Hunan villagers." A classmate from Hunan said, "Mao Xiaoer, you can find out if there is a Jiangsu hometown association." ”

"Hey, I've been paying attention for a long time, where did you know about the fellow association?" I asked.

"There are a lot of similar advertisements on the wall at the entrance of the cafeteria."

"I've seen it, I've never seen any mention of the Jiangsu Hometown Association, maybe it really isn't." I smiled and said, but my heart was very sad.

When I first came to Zuo Yuan University, many students around me didn't know the existence of this university, but at first glance, it was still ranked among the top 20 in the country, and it felt like a magical and ethereal Penglai fairyland. Naturally, there shouldn't be many Jiangsu people who come here, and they can't even organize a hometown association. Or, like me, I feel like I've been exiled and don't have the heart to organize.

Even if I had, I really didn't want to join. I'd rather be in Jiangsu, in Nanjing, in a place where I can see Lin Ximeng, rather than huddle together with a group of people who have been expelled from Jiangsu to keep warm and guard that pitiful sense of belonging.

Do I really regret coming here?
