Chapter 7: Sadness

The college entrance examination is on June 7th, and the school will let candidates leave the school 3 days in advance because of the arrangement of the examination room, and on the other hand, it is also to let candidates go home to prepare and adjust their mentality.

The graduating class will hold a graduation party early on the morning of departure.

Shen Fu sat in the school cafeteria and ate his last breakfast, looking at the soy milk in the bowl, he felt a lot of emotion.

Three years ago, when she took the high school entrance examination, her first breakfast was also drunk at this house, and she still remembers that the boss did not confiscate the money for that bowl of soy milk, saying that she had bought steamed buns and that the soy milk could be drunk for free.

At that time, the buns were very large, and Shen Fu looked at the buns that had already taken a few bites in his hand, which were obviously much smaller than those at that time, and wanted to laugh a little.

After three years of eating here, many people have become accustomed to the phenomenon that the amount of food in the restaurant changes with the "season": every time it is time to enter the junior high school and high school entrance examination, the food in the restaurant will improve and the portion will increase.

At first, they would sourly say that the food in the restaurant would also judge the situation and contribute to expanding enrollment, but then they just "watched from the wall".

When he got up after eating, Shen Fu froze.

At the dining table not far from the right in front of Shen Fu, Fang Lin was handing the unscrewed water cup to the girl opposite, the girl took it with a smile, and handed Fang Lin a peeled egg.

Shen Fu couldn't see Fang Lin's expression, but he did see him take a bite.

For a moment, Shen Fu could barely hear any sound, and the world was empty.

She took a stunned step, but she stumbled and stumbled, and the place where her calf touched hurt painfully.

She reflexively bent over her legs, slowed down for a moment before she held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes, and then walked out of the restaurant as if she had come to her senses.

When I was about to arrive at the door of the restaurant, I remembered that I forgot to put away the bowl, so I hurriedly went back and took the bowl that had drunk soy milk and put it at the recycling place, and turned to look at Fang Lin and the two of them who were delivering the plate after eating.

She was a little overwhelmed, grabbed the corner of her clothes and was about to speak, when she heard Fang Lin say, "You are also coming to dinner?" ”

"Well," he said, chuckling lightly at the girl beside him, "I'll go first." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Fang Lin's answer, he left by mistake.

After walking a long way, Shen Fu's heartbeat has not completely calmed down.

Because it was summer, even if it was morning, the sun began to be scorching, Shen Fu's forehead and the tip of her nose were already sweating a lot, but she herself couldn't feel it, she was annoyed by her incompetence and self-inflicted amorousness, but her heart was at a loss, and even the boulevard that she had walked countless times suddenly became unfamiliar.

Fang Lin has a girlfriend, how can he already have a girlfriend?

And what about yourself? Is this self-inflicted?

Shen Fu thought of Mencius Yan's desire to speak that night, and he knew it in his heart.

It seems that Ziyan already knew.

……

At the graduation party, many students and even teachers shed tears.

Looking at the photos and videos of more than two years released on the projector, the scenes of the past are like in front of me.

In the time to prepare for the exam, everyone longed for this moment to come quickly, and now they are really facing separation, but they are all reluctant.

Old man Li, the head teacher, joked: "Don't be too happy, I still have something to arrange after the college entrance examination, so everyone has more opportunities to see me, don't be excited to tears now." ”

Speaking of which, Shen Fu's students may be Old Man Li's "closed disciples".

Old man Li's real name is Li Jiheng, he is Shen Fu's homeroom teacher and Chinese teacher, who has been teaching for decades and is about to retire.

The title of Old Man Li was given by a few more active boys in Shen Fu's class, even if he was as kind as Old Man Li, when he first heard the honorific title given by his students, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

After listening to Old Man Li's words, everyone laughed again, and their mood was finally not so heavy.

……

The college entrance examination is still going well.

Perhaps because of the pressure and nervousness of expressing his mind after the college entrance examination, Shen Fu was in the same state of mind even during the college entrance examination, and was not excited, but just answered the questions mechanically.

Shen Fu returned to school after the exam, and she was not in the same exam area as Meng Ziyan.

She was not in a hurry to go home, and planned to stay in the dormitory for another night, just waiting for Meng Ziyan.

In the evening, the campus was quiet and full of joy, and the students of other grades were temporarily away from the school because of the college entrance examination room, and the candidates who had just finished the college entrance examination were like birds released from a cage, and they wanted to go out in groups to celebrate.

Shen Fu sat on the swing next to the small playground in front of the dormitory building and slowly swayed, watching familiar or unfamiliar faces pass by with a relaxed smile.

Zhou Guoping said in "Love and Solitude"; "People need a companion in the world, and someone who loves you in life is better than nothing. As for spiritual happiness, it's up to you – forever. As long as the beautiful world in your heart is intact and the new world is always new, no one can take away your happiness. ”

And again, "I love her, she has become everything to me, and the whole world except her seems to cease to exist." So, once I lost her, did I lose everything? No, on the contrary, the whole world unfolded in front of me again, and I got everything again. ”

As the night fell, the swing swayed a little more.

Shen Fu gradually broadened his mind in the cicada song, and there was a smile on his face.

Yes, Shen Fu thought, I also got everything again!

……

When Mencius came to him with a plastic bag containing watermelons, it was already completely dark.

"Your roommate said to see you swinging here, how long have you been here?"

Meng Ziyan said, put the watermelon on the table tennis table next to him, opened the plastic bag and said, "Do you want to eat watermelon?" I bought half of it, it's already cut. ”

"I've been here for a while." Shen Fu was not polite, and stood up as he spoke, took a piece and ate it.

"Shen Fu, I want to tell you something, don't be too sad to hear it." Meng Ziyan was a little worried.

“…… Is it the fact that Fang Lin has a girlfriend? Shen Fu didn't raise his head, and continued to eat the melon in his hand after speaking.

It's just that the watermelon, which I felt sweet and thirst-quenching just now, has no taste in my mouth at the moment.

"You know?" Meng Ziyan was surprised, and then said softly: "It was Wang Menghan who took the initiative to confess to Fang Lin, and many people in our class know about it."

I think Wang Menghan is far worse than you, her appearance is very average, her personality is not as good as yours, and her grades are not as good as yours...... I don't understand why Fang Lin agreed. ”

The more Mencius Yan spoke, the more difficult his tone became.

"Maybe it's a flower for each eye." Shen Fu raised his head and smiled at her.

Meng Ziyan was a little worried, and a little uncomfortable: "I didn't tell you in advance, you are angry with me, right?" ”

"How come, are you afraid that I will be in a bad mood and affect the college entrance examination." Shen Fu's eyes were sincere, and there was a choked voice in his voice, "Thank you, Ziyan." You asked me to come to you first after the college entrance examination, just because I was afraid that I wouldn't know the situation and go to Fang Lin to embarrass everyone, I understand, really. ”

Meng Ziyan didn't say anything more, raised his arm and hugged her.

The next morning, Shen Fu ran back and forth a few times, and finally moved the things in the dormitory.

When she walked out of the dormitory building with the last bag of daily necessities, she saw Fang Lin standing downstairs in the dormitory, obviously waiting for someone.

Shen Fu's pace slowed down.

She wanted to make herself smile and say: Congratulations, you have a girlfriend; I want to say I wish you happiness.

But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything, and finally just said, "You're waiting for someone." ”

"Hmm." Fang Lin said simply.

Like the most ordinary conversations, it is not at all like classmates who are about to be separated for many years.

Shen Fu walked away step by step, just like when he first arrived.

It's just that it was novelty and yearning back then, but now it's reluctance and melancholy.

High school is really over, and middle school is really over.

Shen Fu exhaled and thought to himself.
