Jiang He was disappointed that he didn't see Xu Jin's suspected boyfriend. She grabbed Xu Qing and asked him all sorts of questions.
"How does he look? Is he good? Will he be beaten to death by Xiao Jin? "
"…"
Xu Qing felt that the heroine might have misunderstood her daughter.
"There must be a lot of people chasing after her. If she likes someone, he must be better than you," Jiang He said confidently.
"Because my daughter is smarter than you," Xu Qing said.
"My daughter!"
"Your son, my daughter."
Xu Qing wisely changed the topic when he saw that Jiang He had straightened his back and was eager to move.
"I was rejected by Xiao Jin."
"Oh, I see. He doesn't look like much."
Doesn't look like much? Xu Qing thought it was okay.
Compared to the small Jiangcheng, the university was a different world. People from all over the world gathered together and there would always be many interesting people.
"You don't have to worry about it. Just live your own life."
…
At night.
Xu Shi 'an and Xu Qing sat on the sofa again, waiting for the competition to start. Jiang He was wearing a facial mask and scolding them. They would be in trouble later.
Xu Jin was alone in the room, tidying up the cabinet. There was a thick stack of notes, all of which she had saved up during high school. There were also postcards and posters from Xu Shi 'an.
A sketch slipped out from one of the pages of the book. It was of a heroine with a sword on her back. She picked it up from the ground, glanced at it, and put it back.
In the pictures of the siblings in high school, they were still young and inexperienced. She flipped through them one by one. The last one was taken at the entrance of the school when they graduated.
After they moved to the capital, they rarely took pictures.
The graduation notes were written in different handwriting. The last one was written by her for Xu Qing. It was written fluently with only one short sentence.
"I hope you don't have to lose everything to understand what you cherish."
After staring at it for a long time, she ran her fingers over the handwriting and finally let out a long sigh.
…
Two days later.
Both sides of the Lan River had a very long distance, and granite fences had been installed. Under the policy of protecting the environment, the fishing crowd had long disappeared. If one wanted to go fishing again, they would have to travel a very, very long distance.
However, this was not a difficult thing for the fisherman. It was just another bicycle.
Xu Jin accompanied Zhou Yiqing as they walked on the small path. The tall green trees blocked out the sunlight, and there was a slight breeze.
"Your dad looks quite young, and he knows how to do that …" Zhou Yiqing made a gesture of holding a sword. "He's very powerful."
"I don't know where I learned it, but I've always been able to do it."
"He doesn't feel like an ordinary person."
"Very ordinary, nothing special."
Xu Jin clasped her hands behind her back. She was wearing a white sunscreen top and casual pants, which made her look more demure.
The warm-hearted citizen Xu Qing and the mediocre Jiang He, the two ordinary young couples, did not seem to have any ambitions. Even when he heard that she wanted to get into Peking University, he just made an exaggerated joke.
In their hearts, perhaps as long as they were happy every day, that would be the most important thing.
"Your brother … hasn't graduated yet, right? He's already married? " Zhou Yiqing thought of that girl and naturally held Xu Shi 'an's arm after they went upstairs. Everyone else was used to it.
If he didn't know that there were only two of them, he would have thought that there were three of them.
"It's almost the same. We're childhood friends." Xu Jin smiled. "We've known each other since kindergarten."
"… I envy you." At that time, Zhou Yiqing felt that this family was a little strange. Looking back, he felt that it was very harmonious, very harmonious, and there was an indescribable atmosphere. "It's not easy for childhood sweethearts to walk to the end."
"The two of them … are alright. They've even forgotten why they got together. They still think they've liked each other since they were young."
"Isn't it?"
"No." Xu Jin shook his head and looked into the distance with a smile in his eyes. "When she was young, Xiaoxiao's parents were very busy. Most of the time, she lived with her grandfather. There were a lot of lousy activities in school … bringing flowers and plants. At that time, you know, everyone loved to compare. If anyone randomly picked up a morning glory by the roadside, they would be laughed at by other children. The elderly didn't understand these things, and Xiaoxiao was like that."
She recalled Xu Shi 'an's dignified look and smiled. "Then my brother would always exchange the flowers my mother gave him with Xiaoxiao. Whoever dared to laugh at him, he would beat them up. My brother was just a fart back then. I don't know where he learned all these things, but he managed to fool the little girl. Now, they can't even remember it themselves. They only know that they went to school together since they were young. "
"Then how do you remember? You're the same age, right? "Zhou Yiqing asked.
"I slept together with her in elementary school. She secretly told me about it, and I wrote it down in my diary." Xu Jin stood on the shore of Lan River and looked at the waves with a smile.
Stupid brother and stupid Xiaoxiao. The two of them didn't even know how they got together, but they just foolishly got together.
As the elder sister, she knew everything.
"Your family is pretty good." Zhou Yiqing was amused by the story. "Your dad even keeps a turtle."
"He has it for more than ten years."
"Looks like he likes pets."
Zhou Yiqing thought for a while. "My doll is about to give birth. Do you want to give one to Uncle?"
"…"
Xu Jin was silent for a while and shook his head. "They don't like cats."
"Oh."
Zhou Yiqing didn't say anything else.
"You're … in your third year of university. You'll graduate next year. Does that mean I can confess to you?" He thought for a long time and finally spoke.
"But I'm preparing to take the postgraduate entrance examination." Xu Jin ran his fingers through his hair and looked into the distance.
"You should be able to protect yourself, right?"
"If I can protect myself, I'll protect myself. If not, I'll take the entrance examination."
"So … you're not going to tell me that studying for a postgraduate is also considered attending school, right?" Zhou Yiqing looked at her.
Xu Jin smiled at him. His meaning was self-evident.
Zhou Yiqing was silent.
"Actually, if you're too competitive, you'll lose a lot. If you stand at a height of 100 meters, many people might want to get close to you. If you stand at a height of 200 meters, people might only look at you but not approach you."
"Then I can only say that it's not suitable. You have a life of 200 meters," Xu Jin said.
"It's easy for you to make people lose interest in you like this."
"My way of thinking has never changed."
The breeze from the river was chilly. Xu Jin looked at the little black dot moving by the shore and wondered if Jiang He and Gong Ping would be there. Today, when Xu Qing went to the shop, the two of them made an appointment to go fishing.
Zhou Yiqing was speechless for a long time. Finally, he looked at Xu Jin's side profile and sighed.
"Let's go back." Xu Jin said.
"I'll walk you back."
Zhou Yiqing accompanied her back. When they reached the bottom of the stairs, he looked at Xu Jin's back and remembered that he had not even held her hand before.
"So when you finish your postgraduate studies, can I confess to someone?"
Xu Jin stood still.
"If you meet someone who likes you, just marry them." She did not turn around and walked straight into the building.
"I'll let you know when I get married."
Zhou Yiqing smiled. He turned around and took two steps before turning back and saying, "I won't disturb you during the postgraduate studies."
"That's for the best."
Xu Jin said to herself and pressed the button for the elevator to go upstairs.
Some people would only become scenery on the road. Even if they stopped temporarily, they would still have to continue on their journey in the end. It was better to not stop from the beginning until the end. What would come would come.
Xu Shi 'an was playing with a long sword with Xiaoxiao in the living room. He told Xiaoxiao that Jiang He was a heroine who had fought with Li Bai. Xu Jin came from the future and had arm-wrestled with a robot.
"What about you?"
"I'm the average Xu Shi 'an among them." Xu Shi' an held the sword and said.
