Chapter 19: Dear Child

Standing at the door was Li Yun. At that moment, I saw the surprise and questions on Li Yun's face, and Li Yun saw my surprise and the sexy girl Zhao Xiaoxuan on the side. Zhao Xiaoxuan and Du Qing obviously saw the strange demeanor between Li Yunyi and me when they met.

I don't think there's anything more embarrassing for two girls than this situation, and maybe there will be a similar dilemma in the future, but it seems that for me, a freshman who has just entered college for less than a week, it seems that the encounter has come too soon.

At that moment, I remembered Zhao Xiaoxuan's frank confession on the playground of elementary school, and I also remembered the kiss I gave Li Yun on the forehead on a whim, and then I thought that Li Yun had indeed said that she would submit my poem as an entry today.

Anyway, in those few seconds, everyone froze there. Du Qing opened his mouth and said, "This classmate, are you here to submit an entry?" ”

Li Yun nodded and handed over a piece of paper, on which my poem was neatly copied, signed by Zhou Xu. Du Qing was startled when he saw it, and then looked up at me, confused. I was also confused, so I had to cough lightly, saying that I still had homework to do, and that I would go first. After speaking, he grabbed Zhao Xiaoxuan's hand and dragged her out of the bedroom. I didn't dare to look back when I left, and I didn't dare to say anything to Du Qing, anyway, everything I said made people feel extremely weird.

I walked with Zhao Xiaoxuan to the front door of the campus, and I walked very fast, but I didn't realize that I was still holding Xiaoxuan's hand. Xiao Xuan couldn't help but shout: "Zhou Xu, my hand hurts so much, you let go of my hand." ”

I was shocked, quickly let go, and then apologized.

"Zhou Xu, what's wrong with you? Is that girl your girlfriend? But you've only been in college for a few days, and you're going to have a girlfriend so soon? ”

Xiao Xuan's series of questions made my head more and more dizzy, and I said, "How is that possible?" She was my classmate. ”

"But when you saw her just now, you seemed a little, scared?"

"No, don't talk nonsense, let's go to the front door to eat, there's a Sichuan restaurant there."

"But I'm not hungry, it's only four o'clock." Xiao Xuan pursed his lips and said dissatisfiedly, "You are always nonsense, I don't know what you think about all day long." ”

I laughed and said, "All I'm thinking about is you." ”

Xiao Xuan snorted, and she didn't want to pay attention to me anymore, she walked to the welcome pine in front of the school gate, found a bench and sat down. At four o'clock, the school radio station began to play music, and today it was Su Rui's "dear child", a very sad and gentle song.

I sat down next to Xiao Xuan and listened to the song quietly.

"My dear child, did you cry today?

Whether the friends have left and left the loneliness that they can't take away

Dear child, did you cry today?

Whether you have lost your beloved gift

Look in the wind from early morning to dusk

My dear child

Why don't you let me see clearly

Whether the wind blew out the candle

Walk alone in the dark

Dear children

Quickly dry your tears

I'm willing to accompany you on your way home."

As this faint sadness permeated the entire campus in the song, and with the breeze in the shade of the trees blowing the fragrance of green leaves, I immersed myself in the song, thinking of my wife and children, and it was a violent and surging sadness that hit me directly in my chest, making me feel unbearable pain for an instant.

The faces of my wife and my son's almost alternately flashed in my mind, lingering. I never imagined that I would suddenly feel the great sorrow of parting. I am not dead, I am still alive in this world, but I am no longer me, everything I have met and experienced and loved has suddenly been erased, and it is impossible to return to the original state. No way.

In five years, meet my wife again? Regenerate my son? It was so dim, so dim that I was utterly hopeless.

Xiao Xuan may have seen the gloomy and depressed expression on my face, she quietly held my hand and said to me, "What's wrong with you Zhou Xu, from the day you suddenly came to see me, I felt as if you had changed as a different person. ”

"What the hell is wrong with you?"

yes, what the hell is wrong with me? Who am I? Am I another week in another world? My name is Zhou Xu, but ironically, my life is disorderly.

I said to Xiao Xuan, "Do you think I've changed for the better or for the worse?" ”

Xiao Xuan was silent for a moment and said, "No matter what you become, I will always like you, I love you." ”

I smiled and said, "You're too young, fool, do you know the price of love?" The price of love is confusion and loss. You, you're really fooled by me. I don't deserve your love. ”

Xiao Xuan was silent, maybe she also felt that she had confessed too directly, and the words "I love you" came out too early, which made me feel confused and nervous, so she lowered her head like a child who had made a mistake and been wronged and did not speak.

There are still people in the trees who are constantly chirping, as if they are afraid that we will be cold and cheering for us. The faint sadness of this summer has not completely passed, but a slight cool breeze has blown in.

To be honest, I also think that my response to Xiao Xuan is too hypocritical and a little unreliable, so I am silent for the time being.

Xiao Xuan saw that my face was very gloomy, and he wanted to break this difficult silence, so he said to me: "That girl just now, that classmate of yours, is so tall, I think she is as tall as you." ”

I restrained my melancholy a little, smiled hard and said, "She is indeed very tall, maybe 1.72 meters, she is the best dancer in our class, but she is far from you." ”

Xiao Xuan smiled triumphantly and said, "Hmph, you are now in front of me, of course you say that I am good." ”

In order to confirm that Xiao Xuan danced better than Li Yun, I invited Xiao Xuan to have a meal at Qianmen Sichuan Restaurant, and then took her to the famous No. 1 Canteen Ballroom of H University. The two terms cafeteria and dance hall are logically incompatible, but in H University, they are a harmonious unity.

Generally speaking, there are two officially recognized dance venues in H University, one is a gymnastics room, the ground is flat, the environment is elegant, the taste is a little higher, the price is higher, and it is ten yuan for both men and women. The first canteen is larger, with a large number of people, and the environment is poor, to what extent, that is, you are likely to kick a chicken bone when dancing, but the ticket price is lower, and it is five yuan for both men and women.

The dance party is usually organized by the student union and the Youth League Committee community center, and the organization of the ball is an important source of activity funds, so in the absence of the support of the tertiary industry at that time, whether it is the funds of the student union or the funds of the club center, all count on this income.

Xiao Xuan and I haven't danced together for a long time, and I really wasn't used to it at first, but I found a little feeling after dancing two dances. At this time, the dance music sounded a cha cha cha cha song, and xiao xuan leaned into my ear and said, "Do you remember how cha cha danced?" I said, "If you don't remember, remember to keep stepping on your feet." ”

Xiao Xuan laughed and leaned on my chest and slapped me. Then I carried her and walked to the dance floor. As I walked to the very center of the dance floor, someone shouted in my ear: "Zhou Xu! Zhou Xu!!"

I turned my head to see Liu Lili and Shen Hongtao standing beside me.
