In the end, no one stopped his words and deeds, as Aunt Chen said, with his temper, no one can change what he has decided.

Spring has passed and autumn has come, and several years have passed. This time, Cen Ning never saw his words and deeds again.

He fought hard for his ideal and the country, she was not as noble as him, but she also worked hard for her dream. She tried hard to forget, studied hard, and finally got admitted to the ideal university and started her brand new life.

After so long, she seldom thinks about words and deeds now, but occasionally when she picks up the photography book he gave her, she still feels dull pain in her heart.

Although she had long understood what he meant to her, she was still sad when she heard him say it outside the window.

It is obviously a stumbling block and a burden... How could she be so naive when she was young, she really felt that she had nothing to do with his future.

Cen Ning smiled faintly, and put the album that was about to be rummaged through in his hand into the drawer.

"Hey! Look, look, Goddess Meng's new material!" The roommate next to me, Chen Miao, flipped through her phone excitedly, "Wow, how does this paparazzi do things, and the man doesn't even put a face on him?"

The other two roommates also gathered around: "Look at me, this guy is so tall, he has a good figure hahaha."

Chen Miao: "Didn't you say that Meng Peiyan was with the new little fresh meat Jiang Yu, why did this guy come out again?"

"Maybe they broke up?"

"Hey Jiang Yu is so handsome, why did you break up?"

"Then what's the matter, look at this man, although he can't see his face...but I think he's handsome just by looking at his back."

"Jiang Yu's face is very resistant, this man is definitely not as good-looking as him."

"I don't like Jiang Yu's boyish face, but this one looks more manly." The roommate said that he pushed the phone in front of Cen Ning, "Cen Ning, tell me, doesn't this guy look very handsome!"

Cen Ning was doing his own thing, but when he saw his roommate so excited, he took it over and looked at it: "Well, it's quite—"

His eyes narrowed slightly, and his words stopped abruptly.

"What's the matter, how is it, pretty handsome, isn't it?"

Cen Ning enlarged the picture, stared at it blankly, and didn't speak for a while.

This figure... looks like him.

"Oh, I've convinced you, you can be a nymphomaniac without a face." Chen Miao snatched the phone, and smiled at the stunned Cen Ning, "Why, I've been watching your food for a long time."

Cen Ning came back to his senses: "Huh? No... I, I want to say that he is quite tall."

"Oh, he's pretty tall. Meng Peiyan still wears high heels. He's not 1.9 meters tall, right?"

"It should be. Hey, I saw Meng Peiyan's pair of high heels in that magazine last time. They are limited edition. They are so beautiful."

"Yes, how much is it?"

"You can't afford it even if you say so."

"Hey, I don't like to hear what you say! I can't afford my long experience!"

The roommates went to discuss the matter of Meng Peiyan passionately. As for the man, it was just a back view, so everyone couldn't guess who it was and had to let it go.

Speaking of Meng Peiyan, she has become more and more popular in the past two or three years.

She is only a senior, and she has already entered the first-tier domestic market before she has fully gone out of the school. There are various resources, and she can choose the script.

Many people in the entertainment industry who have struggled for many years envy her, but unfortunately, not everyone has her family background.

Cen Ning picked up his mobile phone and found the news that his roommate had shown her just now. In the picture, Meng Peiyan was as beautiful as ever, and the man with only a back...was very familiar.

Could it be him

Cen Ning squeezed the phone tightly, and began to deny himself in his heart. I heard that Grandpa Yan said that he has a mission and has been abroad, probably not.

After class in the afternoon, Zhang Ziyi came to the school to look for Cen Ning. The two schools were separated by two streets, but they were both in the same university town.

After meeting, the two found a restaurant to have dinner together.

"Hey, hasn't Song Ci come to see you recently?"

Cen Ning paused for a moment with the hand holding the chopsticks: "No, what's wrong."

"Tsk, this guy, didn't he say that he likes you so much, why, is this giving up?"

Cen Ning swallowed the mouthful of rice, blushed and muttered, "I won't have anything to do with him."

Zhang Ziyi: "I think it's good to have something with him. Song Ci is not bad, and we have gone to school together since we were young, so we know the basics, how nice." After finishing speaking, he muttered, "You can't always think about where you are. Know what you say and do..."

She spoke in a low voice, but Cen Ning still heard clearly, she silently put down her chopsticks, and said seriously: "It has nothing to do with him, it's just that Song Ci is the same as you in my eyes, good friend, I have no other meaning to him .”

"Yes, yes, it's not his bad luck. Your mind is full of words and deeds when it is most likely to be interesting. In the final analysis, his timing is wrong."

Cen Ning: "..."

"Okay, okay, don't frown, I don't want to say anything," Zhang Ziyi shook her head and sighed, "Emotions... just go with the flow."

It was because of fate, but Cen Ning didn't know why Sui Sui Song Ci would confess his love to her.

The confession happened during the summer vacation after the college entrance examination. Thinking about it, it has only been more than half a year. However, since she explicitly refused that time, they have rarely contacted each other in the past six months.

But thinking about it carefully, Song Ci was really good to her, junior high school, high school... Over the years, he has taken good care of himself. But as Zhang Ziyi said, at that time, my mind was full of words and deeds, so how could I fall in love with others.

After eating, the two strolled around Cen Ning's university for a while.

As the sky was getting dark, Zhang Ziyi sent Cen Ning downstairs to the bedroom: "Then I'll go first."

"You pay attention to safety."

Zhang Ziyi smiled: "I know."

After speaking, he turned to leave. "Zi Yi." Cen Ning suddenly stopped her again.

Zhang Ziyi turned around: "What's wrong?"

Cen Ning was silent for a while, and finally asked: "Did you see the news about Meng Peiyan?"

"… You knew already?"

Cen Ning's heart skipped a beat, and he was inexplicably nervous when he spoke again: "He's back?"

Zhang Ziyi opened his mouth, and scratched his hair a little irritably: "I didn't want to mention him anymore, I've been holding it back all day, but you're going to ruin my merits by doing this."

Cen Ning: "...so I really came back."

"Yeah." Zhang Ziyi pursed her lips, "I just came back, Xin Zechuan and the others went to pick him up yesterday, and Meng Peiyan probably went there at that time, so I was photographed."

"oh."

"Hey, what is your expression of relief? Are you happy to find that he and Meng Peiyan are not in the same scandalous relationship as in the news?"

Cen Ning was taken aback, then shook his head guiltily: "No."

"Tsk, you really don't know how to lie, your face turns red when you lie."

"..."

At the moment of embarrassment, someone suddenly patted Cen Ning on the shoulder, Zhang Ziyi and Cen Ning looked at that person at the same time.

Cen Ning was slightly surprised when he saw the person coming: "Senior brother."

Xia Yi, who was called senior brother, smiled: "I wanted to call you, but I didn't expect you to be here. Here, here."

Cen Ning took the book from his hand: "Ah... this?"

"I heard from Xiao Zong that you have been looking for this book." Xia Yi said with some embarrassment, "A friend of mine has one, so I asked him to come over and give it to you."

Cen Ning paused: "Send me? This, this is not good."

"It's okay, my friend doesn't need it anymore, you should take a good look at it, it will also help your photography skills."

Cen Ning was overjoyed, she had really been looking for this book on camera techniques for a long time: "Then, thank you, brother."

"It's okay, just, let's go." Xia Yi glanced at Zhang Ziyi, "Well... You still have friends here, so I'll go first."

"good."

Xia Yi came and went quickly, Zhang Ziyi looked at his back, and patted Cen Ning's shoulder meaningfully: "Hey, I came here specially to give you a book, who is this?"

Seeing Zhang Ziyi's expression, Cen Ning knew what she was thinking, "A senior from the photography club, don't let your imagination run wild again."

"I didn't think about it, I think people are very accurate, okay?" Zhang Ziyi narrowed her eyes, "He looks pretty good, since you don't like Song Ci, then he's not bad."

Cen Ning took the book and patted Zhang Ziyi: "You are here again."

Zhang Ziyi giggled for a while, and after the joke was over, she slowly said seriously, "Ningning, let's have a relationship, other people are pretty good, really."

**

Everyone else is fine, she knows it all.

But she once met him who existed like a bright moon in the dark night in the darkest and weakest youth... His moonlight guided her direction, gave her warmth, and gave her confidence and strength.

No one knew how much she liked the moonlight, and she was even willing to stay in the night for those lights.

But the sky will light up and the moon will disappear.

However, her memories and feelings cannot be replaced so quickly. Even if she has been deliberately forgetting, she still has not been able to accept the other light of the day so quickly.

So, wait... maybe a little longer, and she will really be able to completely ignore it.

The next day, Cen Ning went to the photography club after class.

During the summer vacation, she secretly taught herself some basic knowledge about SLR cameras, so she joined the photography club without hesitation in the first semester of her freshman year.

After joining the photography club, she often went to listen to the teacher's lectures, and often learned how to operate from her senior sisters and seniors. After most of the semester, she made rapid progress and became more and more fond of photography.

"Cen Ning." Xia Yi walked over with a DSLR, "How was your homework in our agency last time?"

Cen Ning was processing photos in front of the computer of the photography agency, "Well, it's ready."

"Well, let me take a look." Xia Yi bent down to take her mouse, and pressed down one by one, "This one is not bad, and this one is not bad. Uh... this one has a bit too much noise."

Xia Yi is already a junior, he has been in the photography club for a long time, and he has studied photography since high school, so he belongs to the ranks of masters in this respect. Cen Ning learned a lot from him, and when he saw him commenting on himself, he hurriedly recorded it carefully.

After more than ten minutes, Xia Yi got up, cleared his throat and said, "It's already past five o'clock, hey Cen Ning, how about...how about we go out and finish dinner together first?"

Cen Ning raised his head from the computer: "Huh?"

Xia Yi said unnaturally: "Photos are important, but eating is also important. Let's continue after eating."

Cen Ning paused for a moment, but just as he was about to answer, the phone rang suddenly. She said "wait a minute" to Xia Yi and picked up the phone: "Zi Yi, what's wrong?"

"Ning Ning, Tang Zheng called me just now, saying that everyone will get together at C Plus tonight." Zhang Ziyi sneered after speaking, "Really, I came back yesterday and only called me today. What's the matter, they yesterday We can’t go where we’re going.”

Cen Ning froze slightly: "Get together, get together?"

Zhang Ziyi: "They're all from the same courtyard, so everyone should probably go back. By the way, Tang Zheng specified that he would take you with him, so you... will go."

Cen Ning was stunned for a moment: "Why do you ask that?"

"Oh, I thought you'd better not see the words and deeds anymore, but think about it again, it seems that you will see the words and deeds when you go home." Zhang Ziyi patted her head, "Tsk, how much do I have?" stupid."

Cen Ning twitched the corners of his mouth, but didn't speak.

"Anyway, it's going to be a meeting, so let's meet. Do you know where C Plus is? I'll send you the specific address. It's very close. I'll see you in the lobby then, okay."

... After hanging up the phone, Cen Ning turned around and met Xia Yi's questioning gaze.

Cen Ning remembered what he said about dinner just now, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, brother, I have an appointment with some friends tonight."

**

At six o'clock in the evening, Cen Ning took a taxi to C Plus.

C Plus is a relatively private entertainment club, where you can eat, drink, and have fun, but it implements a membership system, so the people who can come are basically children from rich families.

After Cen Ning got out of the car, he sent a message to Zhang Ziyi, but Zhang Ziyi was still on the way, saying that he would arrive in ten minutes.

Originally, Cen Ning could have gone ahead in this situation, but she obviously didn't have the guts to do it, and with no one to accompany her, she might be at a loss when the time comes.

After all, it's been several years since we saw each other again.

After entering the main entrance of C Plus, there is a hall. There are several sofas and coffee tables in the hall, where you can wait for people. Cen Ning sat down by the window, seemingly quietly fiddling with his mobile phone, but was actually observing the people around him.

The people who come and go are well-dressed and elegant. The person who walked out smelled of alcohol and was reckless. Everyone seems to have taken off the mask of the day, doing whatever they want in such an unruly area.

For her, this kind of place is very strange. So she kept her head down slightly, trying to minimize her sense of existence.

"Oh, I'm not drunk... hiccup, I'm really not drunk!" Suddenly, the chair he was sitting on was bumped inward, and Cen Ning was startled, turning his head quickly.

And this time, she saw a man whose face was flushed from drinking was half hanging on the back of her chair.

Cen Ning: "..."

Another man next to him came to pull the drunk man. While pulling, he said to Cen Ning without sincerity, "I'm sorry, this man drank too much."

"You fucking said I drank too much? Why don't we go in and compete to see who gets down first!"

"Go away, get in the car quickly."

"I won't get in the car." The drunk man rolled his eyes at the man, and then looked at Cen Ning with a smile, "Hey little girl, are you waiting here? Do you want to go in with my brother for a drink or two? My brother is a good drinker." .”

Cen Ning stood up silently, and took two steps back to the side vigilantly.

"Don't go, come on, let's play together, and my brother won't hurt you." As he said that, the man stepped forward to pull Cen Ning's hand, and Cen Ning's wrist was tightly squeezed by him .

Cen Ning's face flushed with fright, he struggled a few times but couldn't break free: "You, let go—"

"Don't be shy, brother is single," the drunken man blinked and laughed wildly, "Really, I don't care."

The person next to him who was pulling him was obviously used to his nonsense. He pressed his temple and said with a sneer, "You don't want to tease people, you won't be able to go back. I don't have that much time to serve you."

The drunken man ignored him at all, and continued to tease Cen Ning: "Little sister, your face is so red, so cute. It doesn't matter if you have a boyfriend or not. I kicked him, hehe, what do you think of me?" ?”

Cen Ning was caught off guard, his cheek was pinched by him, and goose bumps all over his body immediately: "Let go...don't touch me! Hey, pull him away!"

The drunken man's friend shrugged his shoulders, and when he was about to step forward to pull someone over, he suddenly felt someone walking by at a very fast speed, before he could react, he was startled by the scene in front of him—

The drunk man was pulled away by a man who came forward suddenly. I don't know how hard the man was. The drunk man was thrown out by him. After being thrown out, he hit the wooden table two meters away. After whimpering, his whole body Rolled limply to the ground.

That appearance is really embarrassing and tragic.

"You, who are you!" The drunken man's friend reacted and pointed angrily at the man who appeared suddenly. The status of all of them is not low here. Now that his friend is thrown to the ground, what shame is there!

The man who made the move turned around slowly at this moment, his eyes were freezing cold.

The friend of the drunk man saw the corner of the man's mouth twitching slightly, and when he spoke half coldly and half sarcastically, his heart suddenly shivered.

The man said: "Who gave you the courage to touch her?"

The author has something to say: This time I really grew up, a freshman and a freshman, I can talk about love, and it is also the beginning of a slap in the face with words and deeds.
