By May, the SARS situation began to improve.
Before the May 1st holiday, Ji Yi received a call from Xu Qing, the leader of the experimental class at Nanjing Military Academy. She still remembered the day she left him a message on the classmate record. It was a year in a blink of an eye. The old squad leader meant that he came back from Nanjing on May 1st and was going to arrange a class reunion.
Ji Yi was having lunch at the time. In the lunch box was Ji Chengyang’s egg-fried tomato and black pepper beef tenderloin. She responded and soon heard the monitor ask her: "Can you tell Ji Nuannuan? It saves me. She called."
Ji Yi paused: "It's better for you to fight..."
"What's the matter?" The old squad leader was puzzled. "Aren't you the easiest to find her?"
Ji Yi made an excuse vaguely, an excuse that didn't sound right at first, and refused. The old squad leader is also a smart person, so he didn't ask too much. Ji Yi feels a little guilty. In fact, she always feels in her heart that perhaps someday in the future, the old squad leader will be able to see Yueming, waiting for him to fall in love with Ji Nuannuan since the first year of high school and have always loved...
It's a pity that Nuannuanhe has become a stranger.
Ji Chengyang said that Nuan Nuan had promised that he would not tell any family members and neighbors about them. Nuan Nuan did, but she no longer had any connection with Ji Yi's life. Ji Yi ended the call and lowered his head to continue eating Ji's lunch. After eating, she felt a little sad. All the text messages she sent to Nuan Nuan fell into the sea, as if she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.
On the day of the class reunion, the squad leader gathered a full two tables of people. Except for those students who did not return to school in other provinces, everyone in Beijing came. The squad leader even drank beer for the first time and was happily red. He was happy. One year after graduation, everyone still cared about him as the monitor, and basically came to join him.
Among these people here, Ji Yi was the only one who went to the liberal arts class at the beginning. Naturally everyone started to tease her when she was in the mood for eating and drinking, saying that she had betrayed the organization, and Ji Yi was run out of a hundred mouths, and the squad leader actually took it seriously. , Ran over to her table to block the people who kept pouring her beer for Ji Yi: "I said you guys, you can't bully girls."
A guy laughed and said, "Squad leader, why are you so orthodox after a year of college? I said, squad leader, you are definitely the most serious person I have ever known in my life. Let’s play with Ji Yi. Well, where does it really persuade her."
The squad leader chuckled, drunk in his bright black eyes, and pointed to the boy and said, "Smoking is not good. Quit quickly. It's really bad. It's bad for your health."
Everyone laughed.
A girl looked at the squad leader and joked to persuade him to drink: "Squad leader, I heard someone say that other classes and the society can’t be organized, and the hearts of the people will disappear as soon as we graduate. In fact, we’re here, but they are all for you alone. For the sake of face, why don't you drink more?" The squad leader was a little embarrassed with a smile, and without a word, he poured a full glass: "Okay, drink!"
After speaking, he raised his neck and worked.
Ji Yi looked at him. Today, if he didn't go back sideways, he wouldn't be finished. Some felt that everyone was making too much trouble, and even helped to persuade a few words. By the time everyone moved to the KTV, the monitor had completely occupied the toilet, vomiting faintly, and when he was picked up, he lay unconscious on the sofa and fell asleep.
I don’t know who said that Ji Nuannuan was stopped by someone.
Ji Yi knew that in fact, Ji Nuan didn’t come, not necessarily to avoid herself, but her personality was like this, she couldn’t help feeling guilty, even if it’s only 10% of her own reasons, she I also feel very sorry for the monitor. Even if you look at it from a distance, it's good.
When I was young, laughter was really laugh, and cry was really cry.
But today's squad leader, obviously smiling and drinking, can always make people feel the sadness behind that smiling face. He started to want to hide his emotions, and everyone saw through, and began to learn not to break...
Everyone is ordering songs and chatting.
Ji Yi said that he wanted to buy some drinks and snacks for everyone and walked out of the KTV. This KTV is not far from the attached middle school. On the way she came, she saw the newly renovated school gate of the attached middle school, and the shop opened by Xiao Jun and Fu Xiaoning, which had changed owners and became a small supermarket without the previous excitement. There is also no previous loving wife and boss.
There is a little confusion in her mind, too many thoughts.
In the supermarket on the first floor of the KTV, carrying a shopping basket, randomly picking up snacks. Until, almost hit a person, or that person saw that she didn't move on purpose, stopped there and looked at her.
Ji Yi carried the metal shopping basket, was stunned for two seconds, and smiled: "It's such a coincidence..."
Fu Xiaoning chuckled: "I'm here to play too. I didn't expect to see you." He looked at Ji Yi, who was almost eighteen years old, and when he looked at her, he suddenly thought, why that shy and gentle little girl , Has grown so big. So beautiful.
He thought, fortunately Ji Yi was not with him at the time.
I am less and less worthy of her.
Ji Yi was not as afraid of contacting him as before. After talking to him for a while with a shopping basket, he remembered the video store. Fu Xiaoning was a little confused: "Why, didn't Nuan Nuan tell you?" Ji Yi shook his head, a little unpredictable.
Seeing her unknowing look, Fu Xiaoning was also a little bit unspeakable: "Pay the money first."
Ji Yi put the shopping basket on the counter. The waiter inside the KTV was checking out and chatting with Fu Xiaoning. He seemed to be an old acquaintance: "Why, a new one?"
Fu Xiaoning frowned, did not answer, and took out his wallet directly.
Ji Yi hurriedly paid the money. Fu Xiaoning was stunned when she saw her avoiding like this, then he took a lollipop from the small shelf on the counter, bought it, and handed it to Ji Yi: "I just want you to eat it. Something."
She hesitated, but took it.
Finally, the snacks and drinks were delivered to the box. When Fu Xiaoning said goodbye, he finally told her: "Xiao Jun is a bit too eager for quick success and quick profit. He wants to make money. He took a crooked path inadvertently, and I didn't persuade him. I watched. Nuan Nuan broke up with him many times, watching them get tired too... You are Nuan Nuan’s friend, please help me to persuade her, don’t toss, just divide it like this, it’s really hard for people who have taken drugs to get back. ."
Fu Xiaoning tried his best to speak calmly.
But the more it gets to the end, the more difficult it is for her to accept it.
When he finished speaking, Ji Yi felt a little untrue, so Xiao Jun took drugs and took drugs? Why doesn't she know anything? Is that what Nuan Nuan wanted to tell herself when she was in Hong Kong
"Don't be afraid," Fu Xiaoning still looks at Ji Yi when she was fourteen, always afraid of terrifying her, "Not as terrible as the legend... You can always give up." His words are not really emboldened. , But still try to comfort her.
Ji Yi still wanted to ask.
The door was pushed open, and the squad leader was swayed out half-framed, presumably he wanted to go to the bathroom again. In his vision, after seeing Ji Yi and Fu Xiaoning vaguely, he didn't know where the strength came from, struggling to pull Ji Yi over.
The squad leader still remembers that the man who took the lead in the fight at the school gate was the man standing in front of the box.
"What are you doing? What do you want to do?" The squad leader put on the same posture as the leader of the year, protecting everyone in his class. The boy who was holding him was unclear, so: "Class leader, class leader? Are you drunk?" After finishing speaking, he nodded to Fu Xiaoning, "I'm sorry, this one is drinking too much." Fu Xiaoning guessed why. Smiled: "It's okay."
He glanced at Ji Yi one more last time, and really said goodbye: "Go, Xixi."
Fu Xiaoning turned around.
After treating people far away, the squad leader had no awareness of the need to protect people, and immediately softened his body and completely lost consciousness.
Ji Yi walked in. Everyone thanked Ji Yi for his generous hospitality. Ji Yi smiled, did not speak much, and sat down at the end of the large corner sofa in the private room. Holding her mobile phone, she sent a long message to Nuannuan, 7 text messages in succession, she wanted to tell Nuannuan, in any case, she is a friend of Nuannuan, I hope she can contact herself.
Until the evening, it was still sinking into the sea.
She returned to Ji Chengyang's house, Ji Chengyang was changing clothes, apparently just arrived home: "What's wrong? Back from classmates reunion so boring?" He buttoned the shirt buttons one by one and walked over.
Ji Yi thought before and after, but did not tell Ji Chengyang the truth: "I want to go home once."
She hasn't been home for a long time.
With the excuse of living on campus, I haven't stepped into the gate of that compound for a long time. All my parents pay a fixed card every year for living expenses, and I don't have to worry about the rest. And she didn’t go back to the home where she grew up. It was a happy ending. Since she went to college, the room she used to live in has long been cleaned up and made a guest room. The children of the second uncle and the third uncle live in turns for a while. She went back but didn't have a place to stay.
But, now, she really wants to go back.
Go back and try to see if you can find Ji Nuannuan.
"Okay," Ji Chengyang didn't ask too much. He saw that there was something in her heart. Since he doesn't want to tell him clearly now, then talk about it when she wants to say, "I will drive you there tomorrow morning."
"Um."
"I always forgot to ask you, what do you buy a world map for?" He laughed.
"World map?" She remembered for a while, then she remembered that when she answered the last phone call that day, she just bought the world map. What happened later? She had forgotten where she was lying, "Did you see it? Where?"
"You put it on my desk. I don't know what you are going to use it for, so I haven't dared to touch it." Ji Chengyang stroked the hair along her cheek with his hand. "It's still on the desk as it is."
It's been a month.
"Why haven't you asked me?" Ji Yi was a little strange.
Of course, Ji Chengyang wouldn't tell her, because seeing that she was in a bad mood, he specially found a topic: "Suddenly thought of it."
She squeezed carefully for a while, and said softly: "I want to post it on the wall. Every time you go abroad, you will mark where you have been as a memorial. This way I will feel that even if you are not by my side, at least we will still pay On the same map of the world..."
He was slightly startled when he heard it, and for a moment, it was as if he was looking at her behind the overlapping pictures through countless tragic pictures. Artillery, hunger, refugees, corpses, weapons, mothers holding babies, soldiers and lovers kissing on the street corner.
He was poked into the most fragile place in his heart by a word of her, and he had a specific fear of death. He was also afraid before, but he had an instinctive fear response at the moment the cannonball fell. At this moment, I feel more uneasy about Ji Yi, lest the person I love deeply after death will cry dizzy and even become irresistible...
Poor Wuding Riverside Bone, still a spring boudoir dream.
What if the lover in the spring boudoir receives news of death
He thought that he would finally be able to fully understand that soldiers who had experienced war would also be afraid of their heads and heads, but what was even more afraid was that after death, their parents would have no one to rely on and their wives and children would not be taken care of.
…
"What time are we leaving tomorrow?" Ji Yi was afraid that he would feel hypocritical, and in a brief silence, he changed the subject, "Morning? Or noon?" Ji Chengyang rolled up his shirt cuffs with a beautiful fold, squinted his eyes, and seemed to be Think about the right time: "It depends on what you are going to do and how much time it takes."
"go back-"
The doorbell rang unexpectedly.
She was taken aback, but forgot to say something.
Although Ji Chengyang had long told her that she didn’t tell Wang Haoran and a few friends when she came back this time, because she was afraid that everyone would bump into each other and make her feel embarrassed... But after Nuannuan’s last incident, she became more cautious. I'm afraid that some old acquaintances will know that she and Ji Chengyang are in love and cause more troubles.
Ji Chengyang had doubts between his eyebrows, but he didn't think much about it, and went to open the door.
"Don't be surprised," the voice of a woman with laughter floated in from the corridor, "I only probably know that you live in this community. I asked the security guard. I didn't expect you to be quite famous. The security guards remember which door it was. "
Is that the female anchor
Ji Yi recognized the voice. This is his colleague on the TV station. The two had seen him in the hospital. At that time, he and Ji Chengyang had not broken any relationship. Suddenly a visitor, she stood in the living room, not knowing whether she was advancing or retreating for a while. Ji Chengyang once talked to her about treating those who knew the relationship between the two people earlier, until she graduated from college, and then slowly disclosed. At that time, she was already of marriageable age, and all the influence would be minimized. But what about his colleagues? He didn't say anything to her.
Especially this female anchor, and her colleagues can be regarded as old acquaintances.
Ji Chengyang just asked the person outside the door, "Is there an emergency?"
The tone is neither salty nor light, and there is no emotional ups and downs.
