Chapter 14: On a Moonlit Night, by the River
Time is shallow, the days are passing faster and faster, and tomorrow is the banquet for further education.
At sunset, clusters of fiery clouds appeared in the distance. High-rise buildings, trees, and roads are all covered with a thin red veil.
A gentle breeze gently blows on the face, and the heat that has accumulated for a day finally dissipates and feels a little cool.
An old bus came from a distance and slowly stopped in front of Wen Xu's eyes.
The car door opened, and a boy wearing short-sighted glasses walked down. He looked left and right, as if he was looking for someone.
Wen Xu smiled, walked towards him, and shouted, "Yuan Xianming, this way!" ”
Yuan Xianming, who had just gotten out of the car, heard the voice and looked at Wen Xu, only then did he put away his crampedness and replied, "Wen Xu." ”
Wen Xu breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of his mouth rose: "Luo Jin and Lin Xinwen have arrived, just wait for you, come with me." ”
Apart from Internet cafes, ice skating, and supermarket shopping, there are almost no other popular entertainment activities in the town. After Wen Xu and his entourage had dinner, they made an appointment to go for a walk by the river.
Phoenix Terrace Road, a path around the lonely city. Li Du has been here, and Qingshan Ji is famous. Qi Town is surrounded by water on three sides, near the river and by the lake, "the left controls Kuanglu, and the right connects Dongting", which is a place where the military must fight in history. The natural scenery of Qi Town is particularly charming. The Yangtze River runs through and has nurtured the people of Qizhen for generations.
From the beginning of the evening until 9 p.m., many people come to the riverside for a walk and cool off.
"The scenery here is good, the wind is strong by the river, super cool, much more comfortable than blowing air conditioning!"
"Wen Xu, do you remember the ramen outside the school, I really want to eat it again!"
"Xianming, haven't you eaten enough? Could it be that Wen Xu's mother didn't make it delicious! Beware of Wen Xu beating you! ”
"No, no, it's delicious!"
"Do you still remember the oath made by Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Ling'er, Lin Yueru and other 6 people in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" under the bright fireworks? Why don't we make a four-year covenant too? Four years of college, study hard, and mix up your own personality in the future! ”
……
On a bright moonlit night, the starry sky was brilliant, on the embankment, the river breeze was blowing, and Wen Xu and the others spoke freely without any scruples.
Suddenly, Yuan Xianming's mobile phone rang.
"Chen Zipeng called, I took it." Yuan Xianming said, turning around and walking towards the lawn by the river embankment.
So, Wen Xu, Luo Jin, and Lin Xinwen also followed and surrounded Yuan Xianming.
After a few words of greeting, Chen Zipeng congratulated Wen Xu on being admitted to the university and having the opportunity to get together again in the future. Wen Xu agreed.
Then, everyone asked about Chen Zipeng's recent situation one by one, and chatted openly.
After talking on the phone, seeing that Chen Zipeng and Yuan Xianming had a good relationship, everyone couldn't help but ask curiously, and Yuan Xianming had no choice but to tell the story of Chen Zipeng.
In the second year of high school, Chen Zipeng's father died of illness, and there was a younger sister at home.
Only then did everyone understand the causes and consequences of Chen Zipeng's sudden withdrawal from high school in the second year of high school, and they couldn't help but sigh, and they were not in the mood to continue playing, so they went to Wen Xu's house.
Wen Xu's family is not big, only eighty or ninety square meters. The originally large living room was divided into two halls by Wen Xu's father, the outer hall for dinner, and the inner hall was changed into a bedroom, plus the master bedroom and the second bedroom, there are also three rooms.
Yuan Xianming slept in the same bed with Wen Xu's younger brother, and Wen Xu slept in the same bed with Luo Jin and Lin Xinwen.
This night was squeezed in like this.
