Now I'm completely immersed in the passionate love with He Min. During this period, I saw her almost every day.Except for work, I try to spend all my time with her.She is a girl who has been "modernized" in every way.Needless to say, clothes, hobbies are also the most fashionable.I like Misty poetry, Beatle music, modernist paintings, and stream-of-consciousness novels. Although her hobbies may not necessarily be my hobbies, I still pretend to be as hobbies as hers, or even more hobbies than hers.It's all because I like her. Once, she dragged me to a closed exhibition of modernist paintings.I really can't see why those paintings come from.Some paintings look as if they mixed up various colors of paint and poured them randomly on the canvas.As for the sculptures, it is even more inexplicable: some are several pieces of waste steel pipes welded together in a random manner;Each "work" is accompanied by a hazy poem, which reads like a curse.He Min was completely intoxicated by these "arts".She relished in commenting on the extraordinary and refined aspects of these "works" to me.

Although I can't understand it myself, I just told her nonsense to please her.Unexpectedly, He Min spoke highly of my nonsense, saying that I am worthy of being a poet, with extremely insightful insights.This makes me dumbfounded.Just from this point of view, you can know how ridiculous this "art exhibition" is. Soon, the exhibition was seized... But in this city, we have many places to go.We listen to concerts, go swimming, go to the park and sit on swivel chairs and seesaws with the children... More time, I spend in her dormitory, listening to those weird Western music-the sound is Like flicking cotton, tinkling and bang bang.

Of course, I don't find all of this comfortable.Sometimes, I can also realize that this so-called "advanced" life actually has some crises lurking.This would lead me to a completely different kind of person.who?It's also hard for me to tell.But I'm already having a hard time dialing it out from here.I have a crush on Hermione. She is certainly not a fairy, but a concrete, beautiful girl.Just as I expected, when I walked on the street with her, there were always many admiring eyes on me.This greatly satisfied my vanity—maybe this kind of vanity is shared by young men and women?

This love makes me restless every day.All my energy and wisdom were spent on dealing with He Min.In order to win her deeper love for me, I write her poems almost every day-I can't wait to praise her from her hair to her heels... Work was undoubtedly affected by lack of concentration. The bad thing finally happened: I actually returned the manuscripts of two slightly famous authors in this province by mistake—this person's manuscript was put in that person's envelope. These two people had been very upset that the publication was useless because they sent too many manuscripts, and now this happened again, which made them very angry.

They all wrote letters directly to the editor to reflect this matter. At the plenary meeting of the editorial department, the editor-in-chief read the two letters and criticized me.I was doing okay in the editorial department, but now it's over. Immediately afterwards, the unlucky thing happened again: I was in charge of proofreading a poem manuscript, and there were several serious mistakes.This time, not only the author protested, but many readers also voted for the editorial department, expressing strong dissatisfaction with this careless and irresponsible work style.Immediately there was a lot of discussion in the editorial department, saying that if this continues, there may not be many subscribers to the publication.I couldn't hold my head up all of a sudden in the editorial department.

The editor-in-chief talked to me a few times and gave me a hard time. These humiliating incidents distressed me greatly.In order to make up for my mistakes, I began to refrain from seeing He Min as little as possible.Sometimes I lie in bed, my mind is in such a mess, I can't make sense of my thoughts and my life.I seem to realize that in these short days, it has been difficult for me to control myself, like a drunk driving a small boat blindly sailing in the raging waves, facing danger at any time, but full of danger joy in.Although I have reduced the number of times I went to see He Min, the number of times she has seen me has increased, so our time together is actually not short.

Once, when the work room was taking a break, everyone was chatting in the yard.At this time, He Min broke into this place to look for me.I was so embarrassed—I told her not to come to me during working hours, so as not to have a bad influence on me— My influence here is no longer good. Her appearance immediately caused a silent uproar in the editorial department. She is so conspicuous!It was only May, so she was wearing a bright dress, and her hair was loosely draped over her shoulders.Such attire can only arouse contempt here.He Min didn't seem to care about these things at all, she walked up to me and said she had something to tell me, but she didn't say it - it was clearly a secret.From everyone's point of view, we seem to have something ulterior motives.

My face was burning like a fire, so I had to lead her to my dormitory. As soon as I got to the house, He Min's arms wrapped around my neck.I pushed her away very unhappy and said, "What are you looking for me during working hours? What's the big deal? Don't you even look at this place!" I made her unhappy, and said, "What kind of place is this? Zhongnanhai?" I said: "Your outfit is too eye-catching, our unit is very serious..." "Notre Dame de Paris!" she said tartly. "What's the matter with you?" I asked her. She said: "There is a movie at the People's Theater at three o'clock in the afternoon. Now there is only half an hour left before the show, and the phone line is always busy, so I came running."

"Aren't you kidding? How can I go to the movies during working hours?" I did get a little angry. "No, forget it. But don't regret it!" "What movie?" "!" "?" I was in a hurry.I know that this movie has become popular all over the world and won many Oscars.But our country does not import this film, so how could it be screened in this city? I thought she was lying to me and said: "Our country does not import this film, how can..." "This film was sponsored by the Coca-Cola Company of the United States. In order to promote their 'soda', they took this film to advertise all over the world , Now Zhou You came here, and he can only play one show. I heard that the director is also here, and the tickets are very difficult to get. I got these two tickets by pestering my uncle... What? If you don’t go, forget it! "

I quickly said: "I'll go!" Really, this opportunity can't be let go!Gandhi was a great man I admired since I was a child. What's more, this movie is so famous, it's a pity not to watch it. I quickly made up a reason to clear my vacation and greeted Lao Wu.He and He Min rode to the People's Theater together. The May sun shone warmly on the bustling streets. It's a wonderful time of year: the cold is over and the heat is yet to come.People changed into single clothes and let the warm wind blow to their heart's content.The trees on both sides of the street have all been replaced with new green leaves, which makes people look very comfortable and refreshed.The pomegranate tree was in blossom, and it blazed brightly in the green like flames.At this time, girls wearing skirts are rarely seen on the street, so He Min next to me attracts the attention of passers-by.Of course, it's not like being in my unit, so I'm not ashamed of He Min, but rather flattered in my heart—let strangers pay attention!This fashionable girl who dared to expose her legs to the sun prematurely is my girlfriend!When we arrived at the entrance of the cinema, many people had already gathered here. It seemed that most of them had no tickets, and they only had a fluke mentality to see if they could catch a "fish".This fish is too difficult to catch, who would give up this opportunity to feast their eyes?Most people had no choice but to watch a small number of people file into the arena.

Some of the people who entered the venue looked like leading cadres, but most of them seemed to be the children of leading cadres—usually in pairs. All those who can enter this kind of place probably feel that this is not only to appreciate art, but also to show a certain status and identity, so they all have a sense of superiority on their faces.This makes those who can't enter the venue envious with a certain kind of anger. When I walked through the crowd with He Min's arm and walked towards the small door, it was like stepping into a sacred palace.The look, though dignified, must have been a little ridiculous.The film is as exciting as imagined.Gandhi, who was naked and covered with only a piece of white cloth, his great dedication to national independence and national dignity, strongly shocked people's hearts... I finished watching this movie with my breath held. I sent He Min away, still immersed in the plot of the movie for a long time, I didn't even ride a bicycle when I returned to work, I kept pushing the car and walked. The unit has already left work.I went to the porter to get the newspaper and the letter. I saw Xiaofang's letter to me at a glance.As soon as I picked it up, my heart was hot, like a fire coming in from the cold. I went back to the dormitory and opened her letter with trembling hands. She described her life and feelings in the desert with fire-like passionate language; and still expressed her deep affection for me in such sincere language... I lay down on the bed and stared at the roof in a daze for a long time.I seem to see her walking towards me on the windy and sandy road, and there is also a white patch wrapped around her body... Yes, I am so sorry for her!I've been in love with another girl without telling her, and haven't written to her for a long time. me me!Even if I don't have the courage to live with her, at least I shouldn't hide my relationship with He Min from her anymore. I decided to write to Xiaofang immediately and tell her everything about me. I finished writing the letter and came to the street again. When I walked to the mailbox, my hands were shaking like chaff, and I couldn't put the letter in.I saw the slit on the mailbox, like a slightly opened stern mouth... I hesitated for a long time, but the letter still didn't go in. I put the letter back into my pocket, and went back to work with an extremely painful heart.
