From the beginning of May to June before the college entrance examination, there were almost no memories left in Chi Nuan's mind this whole month.
Numbly test, do questions, test, do questions... Her performance has been very stable.
The pre-test leave begins, and the whole school cleans the test room. The whistles and shouts reverberated in the third floor. People kept tearing and tossing exercises downstairs. Chi Nuan stood by the window cleaning up her broom, and a thousand paper cranes passed by her peripheral vision.
His eyes followed Zhihe, and its landing arc split time in a trance. Wearing a school uniform, Gu Ningzi, who was standing in the shadows carelessly, was looking up at the window on the second floor.
... Chi Nuan still remembered this scene, it was a Chinese class, Gu Ningzi had just returned to Yuncheng from the north, and all the students in the class were attracted by her.
As if right in front of you.
It seems that I can think of her a little more peacefully. On the day I lost my phone, I cried a lot.
The lost images and chat records about Gu Ningzi forced Chi Nuan to leave the shelter she deeply relied on, and had to face the real world where there was no Gu Ningzi anywhere.
…
Three days of the college entrance examination passed in a flash. After the scores came out, He Liwen was incoherent and called Chi Nuan in the evening: "Chi Nuan! Congratulations! Congratulations!"
Chi Nuan's mood did not fluctuate. She calmly listened to the call, put down her phone, and continued to read the picture book story to the little Indus lying on her feet.
Chi Qingchuan was cooking supper in the kitchen, and was a little too excited, his fingers were burned by the hot pot several times. After the brother and sister had supper, they inevitably talked about filling out their college wishes.
Chi Nuan's score aside from B University's high admission scores in previous years, Chi Qingchuan first thought of this school. It was the university everyone dreamed of, and he was excited to mention it, but Chi Nuan was absent-minded.
Then it fell below everyone's attention, Chi Nuan chose to go to S University, majoring in mathematics.
He Liwen called Chi Qingchuan, because she was so shocked that she could hear her voice through the receiver. Chi Qingchuan looked at Chi Nuan, who turned his back to him and was playing ball with Xiao Wutong.
"S University is the best option among several nearby universities."
"I want to be a teacher."
That's what Chi Nuan discussed with Chi Qingchuan on the night of the results. … It’s not all about the discussion, because she has a clear goal and has no hesitation or hesitation at all.
Chi Qingchuan said: "Although the S major is also very good, isn't it a pity that your score is so high? ... Or should we think about it again?"
Chi Nuan shook her head: "I can't leave too far, I can't leave here."
Except for Zhao Jingjing, the girls in the same bed ran a little farther, and the other two did not leave the province. On the day that Zhou Damao received the admission letter, he shouted and invited everyone to sing K for dinner.
"Aren't you mad at Dr. Zhou?" Du Min asked Zhou Damao with a smile.
Zhou Damao: "Have you not heard of it? Parents can't be too good. Once parents are good, children are easy to be mediocre - look, I have a living example!"
Xu Dan and the others rushed up and slapped him: "You are thick-skinned."
The level of excitement in the box was no less than that after the final exam last semester, except that Gu Ningzi was not present.
Chi Nuan could hardly hear Gu Ningzi mentioned by her classmates.
She went to the bathroom to wash her face with water, and when she came out, she met the study committee. The study committee member had his hands behind his back, and as soon as he saw her, he began to swallow nervously: "Chi Nuan, I, I thought you would go to B University, why didn't you go? When I went to volunteer, I saw Teacher He facing you. It's really a pity to wipe away tears on the volunteer form."
Chi Nuan smiled.
"Eh..." the study committee kicked his toes, "that..."
Chi Nuan: "Is something wrong?"
The arm hidden behind him was exposed, and the study committee member held a rose: "For you!... Chi Nuan, in fact, I, I have been... "
Chi Nuan reached out and pushed the rose aside.
She shook her head at him and left.
Without entering the box again, Chi Nuan stood outside the door and looked at the classmates who used to get along day and night and were about to go their separate ways, and left the KTV first.
She took a taxi to Yizhongwai and walked along the sidewalk to the place where Gu Ningzi once lived.
Passing the milk tea shop, Chi Nuan bought a cup.
The house was sold in the summer, when the new owner moved in. Chi Nuan sat on a chair by the roadside, watching the strange boys catch and toss the ball with the dog in the yard.
After drinking the milk tea slowly, Chi Nuan returned along the original road and took the bus home.
At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the sun shone on the window glass of the bus, and all the passengers were drowsy.
That was Chi Nuan's last memory of his high school career.
…
S University is very close to Yuncheng, Chi Nuan will go home whenever she has time. It has been more than three years since Xiao Wutong walked from swaying to entering kindergarten.
At the end of the year, when the school was on winter vacation, Chi Nuan walked into the community with her luggage and met Chi Qingchuan who was about to drive out. She asked him, "Where are you going?"
Chi Qingchuan: "Pick up Xiao Wutong."
Chi Nuan stuffed the luggage into the trunk, opened the passenger's door, sat up, and accompanied Chi Qingchuan to L City.
A year ago, Yue Yun bought a house in L City and officially settled there.
Chi Nuan: "You told me on the phone yesterday that Xiao Wutong's mother missed him and asked you to send Xiao Wutong, why did you answer it today?"
Chi Qingchuan: "She said she couldn't take it."
Chi Nuan: "…"
Chi Nuan took off the scarf and put it on his knees: "It doesn't take three or thirty minutes to go to L City here, and it takes more than six hours to go back and forth."
Chi Qingchuan heard what she meant: "Nuan Nuan, she is Xiao Wutong's mother anyway, let's treat her peacefully, okay?"
Chi Nuan stopped talking and turned to look out the window.
She found out later that Yue Yun was the third child of the real estate developer. The developer made a lot of money. She followed him for more than two years, and she never treated her badly. Because of sufficient start-up funds, she and some friends in the modeling circle soon established their own studio. After separating from the developer, she moved to L City, which has more opportunities for development.
There is no doubt that Yue Yun, after the divorce, has indeed gotten better and better.
In the evening, I arrived in L City, Chi Qingchuan drove outside the community where Yue Yun lived, and Yue Yun was waiting with Xiao Wutong.
Chi Nuan and Chi Qingchuan got off the bus together.
Yue Yun is bright from top to bottom, Xiao Wutong is wearing a coral fleece jumpsuit in the shape of a furry panda, her long eyelashes are stained with moisture, and she sniffs from time to time. Seeing the Chi brothers and sisters appearing, he didn't dare to speak loudly, but just pursed his mouth: "Dad, aunt and mother."
"Every time I ask you if Xiao Wutong is good, you always say that he is good. That's how good it is? The food is not delicious, and the sleep is not good. When I talk to him, nine out of ten sentences ignore people, so polite. Where did you go? Where are the rules?... Chi Qingchuan, I know you are busy with work, and Nuan Nuan is also studying outside, but Xiao Wutong also needs to be taught well!" Yue Yun scolded Chi Qingchuan who approached.
Xiao Wutong was never like this at home, Chi Qingchuan looked at him, but Xiao Wutong didn't dare to look at his father and lowered his head.
It seemed that Yue Yun had educated him a lot before this.
Angrily, Yue Yun threw the big bag in her hand to Chi Qingchuan: "In it are the clothes and shoes bought for him, snacks and toys, and a New Year's red envelope, take them all with you."
Chi Qingchuan took the bag and said, "Chi Zheng, see your mother goodbye."
Xiao Wutong: "Goodbye, Mom."
Yue Yun looked at Chi Qingchuan, and then at Xiao Wutong, her curved eyebrows were wrinkled, but she softened her tone at the end, and put her hands on Xiao Wutong's shoulders and said, "Mom murdered you for your own good, next time you come here. Can mom be a little more obedient here? Mom misses you every day, but you make mom so sad, don't you?"
Xiao Wutong sniffed and said, "Got it, Mom."
Chi Qingchuan led Xiao Wutong into the car, Chi Nuan opened the back door, and Xiao Wutong sat up with her. As soon as the car door closed, Xiao Wutong immediately got into Chi Nuan's arms: "Aunt Mom."
Chi Nuan hugged him and patted him on the back: "Did you miss me?"
Xiao Wutong: "It's amazing."
The car started, Chi Qingchuan looked at Chi Nuan and Xiao Wutong in the rearview mirror and sighed.
New Year's Eve.
On the second day of the new year, Chi Nuan and Xu Dan got together, had dinner and chatted, and listened to Du Min's complaints about Zhou Damao. The two of them were in the same city, and they got together in the first semester of their freshman year. Besides bickering every day, Du Min was often accused of He was furious.
"So, when did you two meet?" Zhao Jingjing asked.
Du Min: "I agreed because I was chased by him and couldn't help it, okay? As for him... He said that before and after the New Year's Eve activities that year, he suddenly found that he had a crush on me. Oh, I believe he has a ghost."
"That New Year's Eve!" Xu Dan sat up straight: "I was so impressed! It was snowing, and Gu Ningzi got out of the car, ah, when I think about it now, I feel my heart beating faster."
"… "
The name "Gu Ningzi" made everyone's face show a look of memory. Zhao Jingjing asked, "Did you have any news about Gu Ningzi later?"
Xu Dan and Du Min shook their heads. Chi Nuan took a mouthful of juice, frowning sour, she swallowed hard and said, "No."
After the party ended, Chi Nuan went to get a birthday cake and drove home.
Met downstairs with the grandmother on the ground floor. Grandma's eyes have been broken in the past two years. Chi Nuan walked up to her and asked her how the new year was, and she recognized who it was: "Oh, the little Nuan Nuan from Chi's family has grown so big."
"yes."
Chi Nuan went up the stairs, turned around suddenly, and asked, "Ma'am, a few years ago, on the second day of the new year, a girl came downstairs with me to greet you. Do you remember her?"
Mammy said, "Who?"
He added, "Grandma is getting old and can't remember things anymore."
Chi Nuan slowly climbed upstairs and opened the door to enter the house. Chi Qingchuan was preparing dinner in the kitchen, Xiao Wutong lay on his back, sobbing and sobbing.
Chi Nuan went over and took him off Chi Qingchuan's back: "Why are you crying?"
Xiao Wutong held up her finger to show Chi Nuan. It was covered with a Band-Aid, and there was blood oozing from the edge. Chi Qingchuan said, "He secretly took a knife to cut an orange and cut his finger."
Xiao Wutong cried and fell into Chi Nuan's arms: "I want to cut oranges for my aunt's mother's birthday. She must be very happy to see her when she comes back."
Chi Nuan took Xiao Wutong out of the kitchen, but after two or three steps, the tears rolled down.
"I don't hurt, auntie, Xiaowutong doesn't hurt, Xiaowutong doesn't cry anymore, auntie doesn't cry... woo woo woo."
Chi Nuan choked, hurriedly held back her tears, wiped away her tears, nodded to Xiao Wutong constantly, and said, "Okay, don't cry, we won't cry."
… four years ago.
Gu Ningzi, what day is tomorrow
