002 The regret of youth, I want to finish a dream
A week ago, Consumi City
Skyscrapers, the sun is dazzling and blurry, the eyes of people who have nowhere to go are in a trance, the noisy car sound brushes through the ears, the white sunlight falls on the flowing water, sparkling, like a diamond falling into the water, very charming.
In the spacious office, a man with a shiny face held a beer belly, exuding the smell of nouveau riche money, and patted his hand on the desk: "Xu Xiangchi, you are bold, you dare to call the police, okay!" ”
"Now TM fuck me off!!"
Xu Xiangchi walked out of the office with his head down, and with a lot of anger, he asked her to greet the customer, and she went.
But if you want to uncover her, she naturally has to take her own means.
She is a dignified person, why should she be a toy for people to vent?
After escaping, Xu Xiang called the police without hesitation, she would not hold back this breath, and no one wanted to let her hold it.
So, she was resigned again.
Xu Xiangchi wondered if she had made any mistakes in her previous life, and why she had encountered any unfortunate things.
Xu Xiangchi walked out of the company with the things he had packed, went to his favorite tavern, and had a casual meal with him and drank a lot of water.
After eating, she walked to the viaduct.
On the viaduct, a thin girl in a trench coat, her soft silk hair curled by the night wind, and her eyes lost color on her dull and colorless sickly white face.
It's late at night, and there is still no shortage of people on the street.
She didn't really want to go back to the place where she was imprisoned, in that rental house, it was so boring.
Looking at the bright moon hanging in the sky, the white clouds flew by from time to time, slightly obscuring the full moon, everything was fine.
From time to time, the phone rang, and Bai Jing's slender hand put it in the pocket of the windbreaker, took out the phone, swiped across the screen, and connected the phone.
The voice on the other side of the phone was so familiar, but the tone of speech was so unfamiliar, and Xu Xiangchi had a blank face.
From time to time, I closed my eyes, and the sourness filled my eyes, and the crystal clear water droplets subconsciously slid down my cheeks.
I just listened to what was being said on the other side of the phone, and after Xu Xiangchi answered a few words, only the sound of dripping hanging up was left in his ears.
Holding the phone in his hand, the corners of his mouth showed an inexplicable smile, I don't know whether to be happy or unhappy.
Her parents are old and always urge her to find a boyfriend.
But there has always been a person living in her heart, which she can't forget for a long time.

Back in the rental house, in a small and narrow room, Xu Xiangchi could lie down directly on the bed when he opened the door, and the familiar smell of the futon made Xu Xiangchi slowly relax, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
On the bedside table were several hospital examination reports, on which were densely written, from which the word tumor appeared.
I don't know what's going on, the corners of Xu Xiangchi's eyes are a little moist.
Slowly, Xu Xiangchi fell into a deep sleep, enjoying his sleep.
Maybe in her dreams, she can alleviate her pain, whether it is life or body, it would be good if she could alleviate it.
In this life, Xu Xiangchi will end up regretful.
Thinking of this, the corners of Xu Xiangchi's mouth, who was half asleep and half awake, moved slightly, and said:
"The regret of youth is the regret of a lifetime, and it is also the regret of you and me, I want to finish it in a dream."
People live once
If you can't take advantage of the excitement, then the plum blossoms all over the mountain are not enough to regret.

The two elderly men were taken to the scene of the crime by the police, and several professionals were moving Xu Xiangchi's body away.
When Dad Xu saw it, he ran over like crazy, and when he saw the face that had been stiffened and white, tears flew all over him.
Holding Xu Xiangchi's hand, which had been out of temperature for a long time, he kept saying: "Late, late, late, you wake up quickly, it's Dad, Dad is here." ”
Looking at Xu's father's mental state, the policeman walked up and pulled the old man to comfort: "Old man, the deceased has passed away." ”
As soon as he heard the police say this, Xu's father shook off the policeman's hand.
While crying, he shouted: "Don't say it, don't you ...... Say. ”
Then he fainted, Xu's mother walked over slowly, and suddenly she didn't know what to do, and the gray-haired old man was helpless.
White-haired people send black-haired people!
No one can stand it.
In this life, it seems that all the luck has passed by Xu Xiangchi.

Jiangpu Middle School, Jiangqiao City, the last day of military training
Heavy rain washes away the heat and dust of the city, bringing refreshment and sunshine.
The huge campus is not weaker than the university campus, and in the third teaching building, in the classroom by the stairs on the second floor, the girls in the second row by the window are lazily lying on the desk.
Sleepy like an office worker who can't sleep well for half a month, from time to time, the reminder bell rings.
"The end time of the exam has arrived, please stop answering the questions, and the invigilator will collect the test papers."
Xu Xiang woke up like a dream, raised his head, looked at the scene and object in front of him, and felt that it was not real.
I saw the test paper on the table, with dense answers written on it, and the handwriting was fresh.
According to the practice of Jiangpu Middle School, high school freshmen will receive the first test of their high school career, the preliminary examination.
Subsequently, the grade will be assigned to the class according to the results combined with the admission results of the high school entrance examination, so as to allow students to be in suitable classes as much as possible.
Xu Xiangchi raised her hand and flipped through the test papers, unfamiliar English letters jumped and flipped under her sight, she hadn't seen these English for a long time.
After the exam, the answer sheet was collected from back to front, and Xu Xiangchi raised his eyes to look around the surrounding environment.
The smart handwriting screen in front of the classroom, the whiteboard is opened, wiped clean, and then the electronic clock is looking up, and the time on it is flashing.
She wouldn't really be dreaming! Thinking about it, Xu Xiangchi hurriedly grabbed a hand in his sight and held it tightly.
Without any feeling, Xu Xiangchi's eyes widened subconsciously, but before her shock was over.
"Ah-" sounded, Sheng Xi slammed, attracting Xu Xiangchi's attention.
Xu Xiangchi lowered her head again, her hand was tightly clasped around Sheng Xixi's wrist, no wonder, she didn't hurt herself.
Xu Xiangchi hurriedly let go of his hand, Sheng Xi was not angry, but felt strange, relaxed his wrist, and asked
"Chi Chi, what's wrong with you?"
Sheng Xi is her hair small, and she is also a high school tablemate, plus her best friend, the little girl is delicate, humble and polite.
Xu Xiangchi showed an apologetic smile, she didn't want to try Sheng Xi, and when she was in a hurry, she made a mistake.
"I'm sorry, Yueyue."
Sheng Xi shook his head with a smile, saying that he didn't care, because Xu Xiangchi didn't mean it, he thought about something.
After the exam, Xu Xiangchi and Sheng Xi packed their schoolbags, went to the parking lot to ride, and prepared to go home.
The summer afternoon sun was scorching, and the lawn was wet after the rain, Xu Xiangchi held the schoolbag strap and laughed with Sheng Xixi.
To be honest, Xu Xiangchi can't remember how long she hasn't contacted Sheng Xixi, since graduating from high school, she has lost contact with any of her high school classmates.
Xu Xiangchi has always felt that his self-esteem should be at fault.
But she has a particularly important thing now, and that is not to let them regret it again.
Thinking about it, a tall boy in military training clothes walked from opposite the two, a pair of cold eyes, separated from the mountains and seas, delicate facial features, and the broken hair on his forehead covering his sword eyebrows.
Yes, Ling Xingxiang.
At the moment of rubbing shoulders, Xu Xiangchi put down the hand holding on the shoulder strap of the schoolbag and grabbed Ling Xingxiang's hand.
Because he was restrained, Ling Xingxiang stopped and looked sideways at the girl holding his hand.
Ling Xingxiang's palm was warm and wet, the bones on the back of his hand were clear, and Xu Xiangchi also stopped.
Xu Xiangchi met Ling Xing's questioning gaze, happy in his heart, and said: "There is temperature, there is temperature." ”
It's the living Ling Xingxiang, and it's the Ling Xingxiang she dreams of.
She had never been as brave as she was to hold his hand today.
Hearing the words in Xu Xiangchi's mouth, the corners of Ling Xingxiang's eyebrows subconsciously twisted, thinking, what's the matter with this girl.
Ling Xingxiang asked coldly, "Have you caught enough?" ”
Hearing Ling Xingxiang's voice, Xu Xiangchi suddenly turned her head to look at Ling Xingxiang, and her eyes met, and she saw the young man with full of spirit again.
Sheng Xixi stood next to him, with a shocked face, raised his hand to poke Xu Xiangchi, and secretly reminded.
Xu Xiangchi reacted and said, "Ling Xingxiang, I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much." ”
As he spoke, Xu Xiangchi's two hands were all held in Ling Xingxiang's hands, and tears of excitement flashed in his eyes, accompanied by joy and sorrow.
As soon as Xu Xiangchi's voice landed, the world suddenly became quiet, Ling Xingxiang did not answer, he had a feeling of looking at a fool, and glanced at Xu Xiangchi.
Ling Xingxiang left directly from Xu Xiangchi's side, Xu Xiangchi subconsciously turned around, looked at the back, and in his heart, layers of mist rose, he, or him.
Sheng Joy beside him was frightened by Xu Xiangchi's move.
On the way home, Sheng Xi asked sideways: "Chi Chi, do you know that boy just now?"
Xu Xiangchi held the handlebar with both hands, looked ahead, and thought to herself, she had known Ling Xingxiang for a long time.
But it should have been the first time they met at the age of fifteen, thinking of this, Xu Xiangchi's mind suddenly flashed Ling Xingxiang's side face.
The corners of Xu Xiangchi's mouth rose and said, "It's considered an acquaintance."
At the end of the initial examination, the school gave a two-day short vacation, as a rest after military training, and the military training made people a little tired after ten days of sunburning.
Xu Xiang got up late, came out of the room and walked to the kitchen, walked to the refrigerator, and saw the note Xu Xiao had left for her.
Xu Xiao was her cousin for a long time, and because he was admitted to Jiangpu, he lived in her house.
Xu Xiangchi tore off the sticky note paper, took a box of yogurt from the refrigerator, put the yogurt on the table next to him, and looked at the sticky note paper.
Xiaoshui, wake up and bring my brother a luxury multigrain pancake, I'm in the Nine Star Internet Cafe.
After reading it, Xu Xiangchi rubbed the sticky notes, threw them into the wastepaper basket, took the yogurt and took a sip.
Why is her brother still the same as before, Xu Xiangchi pursed his lips and shook his head.
After buying multigrain pancakes downstairs, Xu Xiangchi rode her bicycle to the Jiuxing Internet café.
Xu Xiaozao, as a quasi-senior in high school, is still in an Internet café when school is about to start, Xu Xiangchi is really admired.
As an art and sports student, Xu Xiaozao didn't have much feeling about the labor pains before the start of his third year of high school.
In the summer, Xu Xiangchi wears a turquoise floral sundress, long hair tied into a low ponytail, and rides a bicycle in the non-motorized street under the shade of trees.
Xu Xiangchi's bicycle turned into the alley, and after about five or six minutes of riding, he saw a group of people blocking the alley when he arrived at the door of the Internet café.
Xu Xiang stopped his bicycle late, hooked the plastic bag of multigrain pancakes with his white fingers, and walked to the Internet café.
As soon as he entered, Xu Xiangchi glanced around, but didn't see Xu Xiaozao, so he turned around and walked to the counter.
Xu Xiangchi asked, "Boss, I'm looking for someone." ”
Hearing the voice, the boy who was lying on his stomach with his eyes closed slowly raised his head, inhaled his nose, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Xu Xiangchi opened his mouth and said: "Xu Xiaozao"
As soon as he heard Xu Xiaozao, Ling Xingxiang raised his head and looked at Xu Xiangchi, his worried eyes were a little sober, and he questioned in a cold voice: "You also want to find him to fight on his behalf?" ”
A trace of hesitation flashed in Xu Xiangchi's eyes, but when he saw that it was Ling Xingxiang, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "No, I'll bring him breakfast." ”
After Ling Xingxiang heard this, he stood up, tall and tall, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, and a pure white short-sleeved baseball jacket, he originally wanted to raise his hand to Xu Xiangchi, but was shaken by Xu Xiangchi's white collarbone.
Coming out of the counter, he said slowly, "Follow me." ”
Xu Xiang nodded his head lately, followed behind Ling Xingxiang, and asked cautiously, "Ling Xingxiang, why are you here?" ”
"The smoky miasma in the Internet café"
Xu Xiangchi followed behind, trying to talk to Ling Xing, but Ling Xing drooped his eyelids and walked forward with his hands in his pockets, without answering Xu Xiangchi at all.
Walking to Area C, Xu Xiangchi saw Xu Xiaozao dancing with his hands, Xu Xiaozao stayed in the Internet café all year round, and he was a full Internet addict teenager.
But at this time, Xu Xiao had already lost a little bit of the usual winning spirit, staring at the screen with a solemn expression, pressing the wrong button with his hand from time to time, surrounded by a few boys, and his expression was even more anxious.
Xu Xiangchi was just about to speak, but the screen in front of Xu Xiaozao showed two bright words "failure".
The expressions of several boys beside him suddenly became angry, Xu Xiangchi put the multigrain pancakes on the table, and said to Xu Xiaozao: "Multigrain pancakes." ”
Xu Xiaozao turned his eyes when he heard the sound, and saw Xu Xiangchi and Ling Xingxiang behind her.
Ling Xing often came during the summer vacation, so Xu Xiao knew him early.
Xu Xiao had already raised the tails of his eyes slightly, the bridge of his nose was straight, his bones were deep, and his eyebrows and eyes were rubbed into some embarrassment.
Xu Xiao picked up the multigrain pancakes early, handed them to the burly boy next to him, and said with a smile: "Brother Yang, I'm really sorry." ”
"You look at the multigrain pancakes."
The man named Brother Yang snatched the multigrain pancakes, his dark face did not ease in the slightest, and his small eyes looked at Xu Xiangchi.
Bright eyes and bright teeth, skin like clotted fat, and beautiful posture.
Brother Yang's eyes rolled, with crooked thoughts, pretending to cough a few times, and said, "It's not impossible if you want me not to pursue it."
"She"
As he spoke, Brother Yang raised his finger holding the multigrain pancake and pointed at Xu Xiangchi, who was standing there.
Before Xu Xiao could speak, Xu Xiang wanted to open his mouth and refuse: "Your grievances have nothing to do with me."
After saying that, Xu Xiangchi was about to turn around and leave, but Xu Xiaozao immediately grabbed Xu Xiangchi's wrist and said, "Are you sure?"
Xu Xiangchi was shocked by what Xu Xiao said earlier, what do you mean OK, she is not a bargaining chip in the game, and she can give it away casually if she loses.
Even if Xu Xiang was reluctant to let her hand break free from Xu Xiaozao's restraint, she thought about it for a while and shouted: "Ling Xingxiang, save me."
As soon as Ling Xingxiang walked back, he heard someone calling his name, and he stared at him and didn't care at all.
The next second, the picture of Xu Xiangchi's crying pear blossom with rain flashed in his mind, and the corners of his eyebrows twisted.
Brother Yang listened to Xu Xiangchi's shouting, but no one answered her, and then the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile, and he was about to raise his hand to hold Xu Xiangchi.
"Bang-" sounded, and Brother Yang's hand was knocked back.
Xu Xiangchi turned his face sideways and saw Ling Xingxiang.
Ling Xingxiang put his baseball jersey jacket on Xu Xiangchi's shoulder, blocking the white and well-defined collarbone for a few points.
The warm palm brushed Xu Xiangchi's shoulder, and Xu Xiangchi could feel Ling Xingchi's existence.
Xu Xiangchi thought to herself, she knew that Ling Xing would never watch her being bullied.
In fact, she also gambled again, and then bet on whether Ling Xing would come.
She was right.
