Without giving Xia Tong the expected hug, Qin Cheng apologized to Xia Tong, said goodbye, and went to the ticket gate.
Professor Zhu was getting old and couldn't stand the humming sound of the plane, so Qin Cheng booked a train sleeper ticket. The train was originally a night train, and after a good night's sleep on the train, we arrived in Anhui.
Qin Cheng and Professor Zhu chatted for a while, and Professor Zhu went to sleep first. Qin Cheng couldn't sleep, so he sat on the chair by the car window and took out his book and pencil.
It's just that Qin Cheng didn't read what was said in the book, and the words just now were all in his mind...
The voice was indistinct, and before Tan Cheng could tell who the owner of the voice was, he could no longer remember the voice that had just passed by.
I don't know if the speaker is a man or a woman, I don't know if the voice is fast or slow, and I don't know what kind of mood the person uses to say these words.
Don't fall in love with others.
His eyes suddenly felt sore and swollen, as if a thin layer of mist covered his eyes, Qin Cheng clenched his fists and recalled it over and over again.
But no matter how he struggled, his head throbbed as he thought about it, and he couldn't remember.
The pen in his hand slid unconsciously on the book. After an unknown amount of time, when Tan Cheng noticed, the blank space on the book was filled with those five words.
Qin Cheng's slightly trembling fingertips lightly touched the pages of the book, as if touching the person who said this.
This kind of recognition made Qin Cheng's eyes suddenly red. It was a kind of joy that he had never had in the past few months, but the joy was mixed with endless despair.
Qin Cheng looked at the words on his fingertips and blinked. Don't fall in love with someone else... someone he can't remember said that to him.
After the lights in the sleeper car were turned off, Qin Cheng sighed softly, "Okay."
You make me not fall in love with others...
I promise you, okay
When he arrived in Anhui, he felt like a slap in the face, and everything was settled. Tan Cheng followed Professor Zhu to the 'Tianzi Tomb' the next day. Professor Zhu took him to the archaeological team and asked him if he wanted to rest for two days. Tan Cheng shook his head and refused. Dive into work.
Helping in the team during the day, and helping Professor Zhu to write materials at night, until late at night, I was so busy that I had no time, and fell asleep when I was tired. In addition to work or work in life, Qin Cheng did not dare to give himself time to spare, so that he would not think about it.
Professor Zhu said to Qin Cheng that working hard is a good thing, but proper rest is still necessary. Qin Cheng nodded, but did not change.
Maybe it was because he was very tired every day, and Qin Cheng hadn't had that dream for a long time.
Spring came quickly, and the temperature was fickle. Tan Cheng was soaked in the spring rain, and he didn't care if he caught a cold the next day. When he found that he was top-heavy, he realized something was wrong. The thermometer measured it, it was thirty-nine degrees.
Qin Cheng doesn't often catch colds. It can be said that he has had a small cold twice during the years of college, and it will be fine in a few days. But this time, the fever was severe. After a few days of infusion, the body temperature dropped, but the cold and cough were severe, and it was only after taking the medicine intermittently for a month or so.
After suffering this crime for more than a month, Qin Cheng realized later that he used to run, run and play ball after work. Recently, his physical condition was not good, and he was overworked. Of course, his physique was not good.
Thinking like this, Qin Cheng took some time to rest, made an appointment with the archaeological team, and in his spare time, went to the middle school court to play basketball.
When the archaeological team gets busy and moves, time flies by quickly. Unlike in the get off work unit, where you count the minutes every day and wait until you get off work, archaeology itself is a slow and meticulous job. What you are holding in your hands is something from many years ago. You can’t be in a hurry. is the norm.
The spring in the south is still very beautiful. Although the breeze and drizzle have continued, unknown flowers are blooming all over the hillside, which is very refreshing and comfortable.
The archaeological team has said many times that when they have time, they invite each other to go out for a spring outing to see the scenery and have a picnic. However, when the team completes a task, the flowers will already wither, and the leaves on the top will gradually become green.
Standing in the sun every day, Qin Cheng turned dark.
Looking back, Midsummer just came.
The graduation ceremony of X University graduate students is scheduled for July 3rd.
Graduation from graduate school is not as vigorous as undergraduate. Graduation from undergraduate is a farewell ceremony of youthful self-indulgence. After graduate students have passed this age, they have long said goodbye to this youth, and many people have lost this passion. It is more like a retrospective, a sigh, lamenting the gains and losses of choosing a graduate school after graduating from an undergraduate degree.
Even after graduate school, many people are still busy looking for jobs at this time, and fewer people go to the ceremony. Not to mention the class of Qin Cheng, all the tutors in the class are in prison...
But Qin Cheng still went. First, Zhu Jianmin, who brought him, is the vice president of X University, and he still has to attend this occasion. Second, Zhang Jun called two days ago, saying that he was going to propose to He Yalan on the day of the graduation ceremony, to surprise He Yalan and let him have more Wu Hai must go and help.
After returning to Xi'an after nearly April, Qin Cheng's mood was still much calmer. Don't think about it, don't think deeply, except that there is some emptiness in his heart, Qin Cheng feels that everything is developing in a good direction.
The graduation ceremony wore a blue master's uniform. After listening to the president's speech and receiving the certificate, Qin Cheng was dragged away by Zhang Jun and Wu Hai before taking off the master's uniform.
He Yalan worked as an accountant in a state-owned enterprise after graduating from an undergraduate degree, and her income was very good. Zhang Jun and her office had been studying for the past two years and did not have much income, and it was a pity that He Yalan did not mention breaking up.
"You said that such a good girl, if I don't catch her quickly and tie her to me, what are you waiting for?"
Tan Cheng drove the car and glanced at Zhang Jun next to him, "Then why didn't you propose earlier, isn't it true that graduate students can't get married?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, you don't understand this, I still have concerns."
"What are you worried about? Are you afraid you are pregnant?" Wu Hai, who was sitting in the back row, choked.
"Where," Zhang Jun said with a rare seriousness, "Yaran works well and looks good. There must be people chasing her, and there must be people who are better than me."
"Did she tell you?" Qin Cheng turned the steering wheel and turned a corner, "It sounds like you are a little inferior?"
Zhang Jun touched his nose embarrassedly, "She didn't tell me, but I can still guess... Cough, there is still a bit of inferiority complex, I have no income and can't give her anything, I'm afraid she will regret it... I She is also afraid that she will be useless in the future, she will be with the wrong person, and she will endure hardship."
This is still difficult for boys to say. It was the first time that Tan Cheng and Wu Hai heard it, and He Yalan would definitely not know.
The carriage was quiet for a while before Qin Cheng said, "But you are good to her and you really love her. She can still see her, so she has been waiting for you."
Wu Hai reached out and patted Zhang Jun's shoulder, nodded and said, "Go, I have graduated now, and I have signed a good unit..."
Zhang Jun smiled and nodded.
He Yalan's company office is located in the downtown area. Three big boys who don't look like they are rubbing together. They are also wearing long master's uniforms and black master's hats. They are still very conspicuous on the sidewalk.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was setting, and He Yalan's company got off work on time. He walked out of the door chatting and laughing with his colleagues. Without any warning, a large bouquet of flaming roses appeared in front of him.
Before she could regain consciousness, the man holding the rose knelt down on one knee, took out a diamond ring from his pocket, and said aloud.
"He Yalan, I, Zhang Jun, want to keep you forever! Marry me!"
In an instant, tears rolled down uncontrollably. She couldn't hear the exclamations of people on the street at all, she just threw herself into the man's arms and kept nodding her head. She promised that when Zhang Jun carried her across the river in her hometown, and she climbed the mountain for a long time in Zhang Jun, just to pick wild fruits for her, she decided not to marry him.
Zhang Jun's marriage proposal was very successful. After Qin Cheng and Wu Hai had dinner together, he didn't want to be a light bulb and left first.
Neither of the two lives in Xi'an. Zhang Jun originally wanted to arrange for the two of them to live in his home, but before they came, they both booked hotels and didn't want to disturb the young couple, so they went back to different places.
Qin Chengding's hotel is not far from the school, but it is still a long way from the place to eat, and it takes thirty minutes by bus.
There were a lot of people crowding this bus at night. Tan Cheng glanced around at random and found that many of them were students, and they should be college students who came to the downtown area to play.
At one stop, not many people got off the train, but many people got on the train. Qin Cheng retreated to the back of the carriage with the flow of people, but accidentally stepped on someone else. Qin Cheng hurriedly turned his head and said sorry.
After apologizing, Qin Cheng looked ahead and stood upright while holding the handrail. However, he could feel that the person beside him was looking at him all the time. This gaze was too direct, and Tan Cheng couldn't even ignore it. Can turn his head and ask, "What's the matter?"
Qu Zhiwen looked at Qin Cheng, he never thought that he would meet him so coincidentally, but Qin Cheng didn't seem to know him, although it was from his handwriting...
"It's okay." Qu Zhiwen shook his head, then glanced at Qin Cheng's hand, his eyes trembled slightly, and he was stunned. Qin Cheng has a red line on his hand, Hong Luan's heart is moved, and the red line will only vibrate when it touches the person on the other side of the red line. From the beginning, Qu Zhiwen guessed that the red line that was unclear to Tan Cheng would lead the way. It was the girl named Xia Tong. Su Jingmo's soul disappeared a little, and Tan Cheng's red line became clearer.
On that day, the day when Su Jingmo disappeared, the red line on Tan Cheng's hand was extremely bright, and he could clearly see that the other end was holding Xia Tong.
But now, this bright red line is broken? !
Qu Zhiwen looked up at Qin Cheng in disbelief.
There are so many people in the world, some people don't have a red line, and some people take the wrong red line, but even if they do it wrong, even if they get divorced and remarry, the red line that originally existed will not be broken. After all, marriage once existed, and the red line will only become dim .
The red line is disconnected, and it is just the words of the world. In this world, whether it is a fairy or a demon, they cannot move the red line. It is impossible to break it...
The people around him looked at him strangely, and Qin Cheng was still somewhat uncomfortable, thinking that he might just get off the bus at the next stop and sit on the next bus.
However, before he got to the station, the phone in Tan Cheng's pocket rang, and it was Professor Zhu's call.
"Hello, Professor Zhu?"
"Well, it's me, Qin Cheng, can you refund the ticket back to Anhui that you booked two days ago?"
"It's possible." Qin Cheng took a few steps to the back door of the car, "Why do you want to refund the ticket all of a sudden? Is there something wrong?"
"I was about to tell you," Zhu Jianmin paused, "I just checked the calendar, after you refunded the ticket, buy a train ticket for the 6th to Pingyao, Pingyao told me to go to a meeting, said It is the police in Pingyao, Xi'an, who recently joined forces to crack down on tomb robbers who stole ancient tombs, and arrested some people who confessed that there was an ancient tomb in Pingyao from the Wei and Jin Dynasties, saying that they had discussed a plan in the past to see that ancient tomb."
"...Pingyao..." The bus stopped by the platform, but Tan Cheng completely forgot to get off the bus, "Ancient Tomb?"
He vaguely remembered that when he went to see Li Guoxian a few years ago, Li Guoxian mentioned Pingyao...
If you hadn't made trouble for me in Pingyao, I would have gotten it...
My heart, which had been quiet for months, was beating violently.
And Qu Zhiwen, who was not far from him, looked a little more serious.
When Qin Cheng was talking about Pingyao just now, he clearly felt that Qin Cheng's deadline was approaching.
