Waiting for you at the place where you are reborn

The afternoon sun scorched the earth unscrupulously.

Fang Zheng walked into the kitchen sink to prepare to fillet the fish. Through the low window of their bungalow, he could see the kitchen of Du Qingqing's house across the street. He and Du Qingqing often met in the kitchen.

Du Qingqing was busy with something with her head down. Fang Zheng picked up a handful of water and sprinkled it gently towards the window of Du Qingqing's house. Du Qingqing heard the sound and looked up and saw him through the window. She gave him a gentle and peaceful smile as always.

"Come over to eat fish in the afternoon--" Fang Zheng shouted to Du Qingqing.

Du Qingqing shook her head and showed Fang Zheng what she was holding. "The uncle from the countryside is here and brought a lot of food. I'll bring some over to you later."

"Okay——" Fang Zheng answered loudly. Du Qingqing made him feel calm.

Du Qingqing is his neighbor and the girl that Bo Tong loves most. Since junior high school, Bo Tong has said that he would wait for Du Qingqing to grow up.

Botong is Fang Zheng’s cousin who is five months older than him. He is the son of his aunt and uncle and is a very obedient and hardworking son.

Fang Zheng has lived with his aunt since he was six years old, and he grew up with Bo Tong.

My uncle Boxingfa is a driver in a bus company, and my aunt Yang Hua was also a ticket seller for the bus company in her early years. Since the popularity of unmanned ticket selling buses, my aunt has been laid off. Now she works as a cashier in a supermarket near the door. Her income is not high, but the workplace is right at the doorstep, which is very convenient, so she has worked in the supermarket for seven or eight years.

Although the family was not wealthy, his aunt and uncle treated Fang Zheng and Bo Tong equally. Fang Zheng had everything that Botong had.

Perhaps because of his family, Botong has been studying hard since he was young. From primary school to high school, he was a good boy in school. After graduating from university, he has been doing grassroots work in the community. Last year, he was admitted to the Municipal Cultural Bureau and became a national civil servant.

However, Fang Zheng's personality is completely different from Bo Tong's.

Since elementary school, Fang Zheng was a well-known troublemaker in school. His academic performance was up and down, and it was common for him to cause trouble. He just happened to pass every major exam, which often made his uncle and aunt nervous. After stumbling through high school, his aunt thought that it didn't matter whether Fang Zheng could get into college or not. As long as he could get a high school diploma and find a job to make a living, she would be worthy of the people who entrusted their children to them.

In the first semester of senior year, Fang Zheng stood up for a classmate and knocked out one of his teeth with one punch.

The school originally wanted to expel him as this was the third time he had been punished for hitting someone since he entered high school. At that time, the results of the midterm exam had just been announced and he unexpectedly ranked among the top 30 in the school.

The principal invited the head teacher and the dean of studies to a meeting to discuss this. Fang Zheng has never been a law-abiding student. Although his academic performance has been up and down, he has never fallen behind. He usually ranks around 100th in his grade. This time he is in the top 30 in the school. If he can maintain this score, he will definitely have no problem entering a key university. Nowadays, all schools are trying their best to compete for admission rates. Due to his good results this time, the school kept Fang Zheng and only asked him to write a letter of repentance.

After graduating from high school, Botong was admitted to a university in his own province, and Fang Zheng, as the school leaders wished, was admitted to a 985 medical university in another province.

Before leaving for college, the principal had a heartfelt talk with Fang Zheng: "You need to be steady and calm when you go to college. You are so smart, you can't always do impulsive things."
