Chapter 4 third chapter

Shi Yan didn't know how the good dragon Ye Gong would react if he knew in advance that the real dragon was coming to visit him. I guess Ye Gong didn't have such good luck, because the dragons don't teach these etiquettes, or the dragons don't have such good communication Tools, in short, in Shi Yan's impression, Ye Gong was "visited unexpectedly" by the real dragon. Although it was a little sudden, it would definitely not be good for Ye Gong's heart, but it also saved Ye Gong's anxiety beforehand, and there was no need to spend money. So much time to think about whether to agree to let the real dragon visit him.

She felt that her current situation was worse than that of Ye Gong, because she had been notified in advance that her "true dragon" was going to visit her, so the responsibility fell on her head.She had to make a decision, whether to let Huang Hai come to see her in the teacher's academy, and if so, what would be the consequences; if not, what would be the consequences. As a classmate, especially as a classmate who has been keeping in touch with each other, and especially as a classmate who aroused Huang Hai's enthusiasm for this social survey, it is said that she has no reason not to let Huang Hai come to see her in the teacher's college.But she was afraid that Huang Hai's appearance in Provincial Teachers College of C would shatter her halo in the hearts of her classmates, and everyone would definitely talk about it, saying, "No wonder a student from a prestigious school is chasing you so diligently, so it turns out It's because he looks so ugly."Her few close friends will definitely whisper in her ear all day long, telling her to cut off contact with Huang Hai.

What about her?To declare to everyone that Huang Hai is not her boyfriend?As if it was too late.If it wasn't her boyfriend, why didn't she declare it before?Now to declare, no one will believe it, so this time I jumped into the "Yellow Sea" and I can't clean it up. She wanted to tell Huang Hai not to come to see her in the teacher's college, but she couldn't say it.For what reason?Said she was busy?Going on a business trip?Physical discomfort?It seems that there is no use for any reason, Huang Hai is here to conduct social surveys, and she doesn't just stay in City D for a day or two, how can she be so busy that she can't even spare time on weekends?You can't go on a business trip for such a long time. It's even worse to say that you are not feeling well, and he wants to come over to condolences to her.

She hesitated for several days, but couldn't come up with an answer, so she didn't even reply to the letter. As a result, Huang Hai's next letter arrived, and she didn't mention anything about the teacher's college's visit to her. She was confused, thinking that he didn't mention anything about visiting her in his last letter, and she was mistaken. She found out his last letter and read it several times. It was true that she wanted to visit her at the teacher's academy, but why didn't this letter ask about it at all?Her intuition told her that it was because Huang Hai had guessed her thoughts from her delay in replying, so he automatically stopped talking about it.She felt guilty and felt it must have hurt his pride.Just imagine, if she went to F city for business and told him that she would stop by University A to see him, but he didn't answer whether it was okay or not, what would she think?He must be very sad, and he must think that he is afraid that a bad school student like her will lose him.

It can be said that if Huang Hai, a prestigious school, grows up to be a good-looking talent, then she has a clear conscience in refusing his visit.The question is, if Huang Hai is so talented, why would she refuse his visit?After all, she still thought he was too ugly. She thought hard for several days, and finally decided to let him come to see her in the teacher's academy, otherwise, it would not only hurt his self-esteem, but also make her look a little weird.If she only regarded him as an ordinary classmate, why would she worry about his ugly appearance?Is there a requirement for appearance to be a classmate?Doesn't it mean that she regards him as her boyfriend?Then isn't he going to laugh at her for being sentimental in his heart?

So she made up her mind and invited Huang Hai to play at the teacher's college. After Huang Hai received her invitation, he neither seemed overjoyed, nor asked her why it took her so long to reply, but only asked her if she needed to bring anything from home, because he would go home first.If she had something to bring, he would go to her house to get it. It was very convenient for him to drop by. She originally wanted to ask him to bring some vegetables from her home, but she was afraid that her parents would think that she was in love with Huang Hai when they knew Huang Hai was coming to see her in the teacher's college, and they would panic to death, so they said that there was nothing to bring, Don't bother him.

In those days, she was like a death row prisoner waiting to be executed, counting the days with conflicting emotions, wanting this day to come soon, but also afraid that this day would come soon.On the eve of the day before Huang Hai arrived in City D, she was overly anxious and didn't sleep well all night.The next day, he found that his eye circles were black and he was depressed, so he skipped class and hid in the dormitory to catch up on sleep. After skipping class for two days in a row, Huang Hai didn't show up. She was a little angry, what are you doing?Do you know the amazing foul?Say you come and don't come, playing people like monkey tricks?She suddenly realized that she took Huang Hai too seriously, or rather took herself too seriously.In fact, Huang Hai was just talking casually out of politeness, it doesn't necessarily mean that he really wants to visit, and it doesn't necessarily mean that he will come to visit as soon as he arrives in D City. On the contrary, she subconsciously feels that Huang Hai is chasing her, so she must be eager She wanted to see her, that's why she made a fuss there, worried that he would lose her face.Now it seems that she is acting passionately on her own, and Huang Hai doesn't take her seriously at all.

Now she is a bit regretful, if she knew this was the case, she wouldn't have to worry about hurting his self-esteem, just reject him directly, and there wouldn't be such troubles. After two days of such annoyance, she received a letter from the local area, with no return address, only a simple "this city", and the handwriting was a bit rusty.She opened it and saw that the handwriting inside was still very familiar. At a glance, she knew that it was from Huang Hai, saying that he had arrived in D City and lived in the No. 2 Guest House of the Steel Factory in D City, and wanted to treat her to dinner.If she agrees, ask her to go to the No. 2 Guest House at five o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and he will wait for her at the Fourth Road Station.

She felt relieved all of a sudden, if she had known that he would come to see her in this way of "entering the village quietly, not shooting anyone", she wouldn't have to worry about it these few days.Isn't this the best of both worlds?I can meet my old classmates without letting everyone know.Why didn't she think of it before? But she was still a little uneasy, wondering if he guessed that she didn't want her classmates to see her with him by making such an arrangement.Regardless of whether he guessed it or not, she was a little moved and a little ashamed, because he obviously took care of her face and prevented her classmates from seeing her with an ugly boy.She thought that if he felt ashamed to be with her because she was a broken school student, she would be so angry that she would never talk to him again.

She decided to go to the appointment, anyway, no one in the steel factory guest house knew her.But she decided to take the No. 15 bus, get off at a place two hundred meters away from the No. 4 station, and then walk to the No. 4 station. Look at the reaction of the surrounding people to the Yellow Sea.If she can bear his ugliness and the crowd's surprise and bad comments about him, then she will go over to greet him and have dinner with him; What reason to prevaricate. On the day of the date, she dressed up a little, then slipped out of the school quietly, and walked for a long time before getting on the No. 15 bus.According to her plan, she got off at the station not far from Silu Station, and walked slowly towards Silu Station.About tens of meters away, she saw Huang Hai, because he was standing obediently beside the dirty stop sign at Silu station, while the other people waiting for the bus had already crowded to the street according to the practice of D city. Going up, a semicircle is formed, as if it is lining the road to welcome the arrival of the bus.Huang Hai looked "out of the flock" alone, accompanying the stop sign abandoned by everyone alone.

Shi Yan stopped when he was far away, and stood by a tree to observe Huang Hai. For the first time, he found that he was very suitable for viewing from a distance, especially from his right side, because his figure was very tall and straight, and the right side of his face Not bad, if you don't look at his sunken left cheek from the front, he can actually be called "stupid".She just stood there looking at him and thought, if he hadn't been born with forceps, then his left face would be as "stupid" as the right, how wonderful it would be! However, she quickly laughed at herself and said: Don't think too much, if he hadn't been clamped by forceps, then he would be a student of a famous school with both talent and beauty, and I'm afraid he wouldn't come here all the way to wait for her. The girls from his prestigious school are enough for him to be picky. She was about to go up to say hello, when she saw a four-way bus coming, people waiting for the bus rushed up, no matter how loud the people getting off were shouting, they kept pushing up until they could get off the bus Those who got on the bus couldn't get off, and those who got on the bus couldn't get on, all they could hear was scolding. She saw Huang Hai squeezed to the side of the car, probably wanting to see if she was in the car, she was a little moved, and wanted to call him, but there was a lot of noise at the door, so she probably couldn't hear him.Before the boarding and disembarking people got their seats, the No. 4 bus started to move, and there was still a group of people crowded at the door, and it was unclear whether they were getting on or off.The driver must be familiar with all this, regardless of whether the door is closed or not, he just drove forward, throwing off the people sticking to the door all the way. Personally, like juggling. She saw Huang Hai running with the No. 4 bus for a while, and after seeing that she couldn't catch up, she stopped and stood there blankly.She walked up and asked, "Did you squeeze into the car?" He turned around, met her eyes for a second, and said with relief: "You... got out of the car? Why didn't I see it? I'm afraid you... didn't get out... were taken away by the car... ..." She joked: "I've been squeezed out a long time ago. After staying in City D for so long, it's okay if I don't know how to squeeze the traffic?" He looked at her with admiration: "You...it's not easy...I'm in City D...I can't even get in the car..." She only met his eyes for a second, but that second destroyed the good impression she had just seen from a distance.The left side of his face sunk so unceremoniously that it destroyed the symmetry of his whole face.She couldn't help sighing again in her heart: If there were no forceps... He seemed to have noticed something, turned his left face away, and suggested: "There is a small restaurant in front, it's more... quiet, let's go there for dinner." She didn't object, and followed him to the small restaurant. He talked about his social survey while walking, and she listened absent-mindedly.This seems to be the first time she went out to eat alone with a boy. She is not used to it, but it is not too embarrassing. Animals among girls.It wasn't as natural for her to be with him as it was with girls, but it wasn't as unnatural as it was with boys either. After they sat down in the restaurant, they ordered food, and then began to wait for the food to be served. During this time, Huang Hai kept talking about the social survey. Although Shi Yan hummed politely, she didn't really listen to it. He said that the leaders of the steel factory were very wary of him and took him to some "face-saving projects". Now he understands why the old emperors and old men wanted to "visit privately". I don't know if it was his intentional arrangement, or her intentional choice, or it was just a coincidence that she happened to sit on his right side instead of across from him, so she couldn't see his left face, but only his right side face.He also seemed to know that he was a "half beauty". Even when he was talking to her, he didn't turn his whole face towards her, so she only saw his "stupid" half face, and his pretty face. The straight nose, like the 38th parallel, or the Berlin Wall, separated his face into two worlds. He didn't ask her a word about her studies, probably knowing that she didn't like her school.He didn't ask her about her life, it might be inconvenient to ask, so he was basically talking about this social survey.She didn't really care about his social survey at first, but he spoke very earnestly and emotionally. She was also infected and became concerned about his social survey: "You...why do you want to come here to do...social survey?" "Inspired by you," he explained, "I have been running around doing social investigations for the past few summer vacations, writing articles for several newspapers, some of which were published, and some were shot. Said it was 'too much exposure of the dark side'..." She complained: "There is a dark side, why not let it be exposed?" "I think so too, but I'm still fighting for it. If one newspaper is shot, another might publish it..." "You...you don't study journalism, why do you spend so much time...doing this?" "It was by chance that I went to a village called 'Wangjiagang'. I saw that the life of the people there was... hard. The children didn't go to school, so I wanted to do something for them. As a result, I wrote a small thing It was published by the newspaper, which attracted the attention of the higher-ups, who sent people down to investigate, and even drew a teacher from a neighboring village to teach in that village..." She sincerely praised: "You are really amazing..." He smiled wryly: "I couldn't solve the fundamental problem. I heard that the teacher who was sent there couldn't bear the hardship. He would rather not have the job than stay there, so he ran away soon, and he is probably still there. He scolded me in his heart for causing trouble, causing him to lose his job..." She joked, "Maybe he called you a Marxist-Leninist flashlight, illuminating others but not yourself. Since you are so sympathetic to those children who haven't gone to school, why don't you go yourself..." The expression on his face is very serious: "I thought of going to teach there, but... I think that can only solve the problem of 'Wangjiagang', but there are too many villages like 'Wangjiagang' in our country Well, I can’t solve big problems just by going there alone to teach..." She asked curiously, "Then what do you want?" "I want to change my career to be a reporter, go to those places to investigate, speak out for the people in those places, let the whole society hear their voices, and know their situation..." She felt that he was a bit too idealistic, but she didn't want to say that about him, so she said worriedly: "You...you didn't study journalism, so you went to be a reporter... okay?" "As long as you want to be one, you can do it. There are already two newspapers that are willing to hire me. Although some newspapers can't give me a formal position, they are very interested in what I write and are willing to publish..." "You...can't you write for them in your spare time? I think it's a pity that you... gave up your major..." "Writing such a report can't be done in spare time alone. I have to spend a lot of time investigating and obtaining first-hand information..." "Then...do you still get your degree?" "It doesn't matter if you take it or not..." She said anxiously: "I advise you to get the degree. You finally got admitted to such a good school, and you have studied hard for so many years. How can you say that if you don't get a degree, you won't get a degree?" "Do you remember the story of Lu Xun? He used to be a medical student, but he finally decided to switch to writing and use a pen to wake up the numb and sleeping Chinese..." She couldn't find any reason to refute him, and she just said in her heart: It's true that people don't know their blessings when they are blessed. The country really shouldn't allow people like you to study in prestigious schools, wasting a place in a prestigious school. read it to me.
