it takes a little effort

Ling Chuan checked the high school on the Internet, and it ranked seventh in S City. Although it is not as good as foreign languages, the campus environment is still good. If Jiang Kai studied in this school, he should be able to get into a good one. University.

No, Jiang Kai can be admitted to a good university wherever he studies.

It is gold that shines everywhere.

Ling Chuan and the others arrived at the school after nine o'clock. The school gate was open, and students with school bags on their backs came in one after another. They probably belonged to the cram school, but there were guards watching in the security room, so Ling Chuan and Yang Fan went right in. .

The school is quite large, and the two of them avoided the teacher all the way like a guerrilla, looking for the library.

Under the scorching sun, I searched for more than an hour, but unfortunately I finally compared it, and it was still wrong. The colors of the eaves and the rubble are different, but the style is a bit similar.

"Damn, it's all peeling." Yang Fan washed his face by the sink, "Why don't you look for it after eating."

"Don't look for it anymore," Ling Chuan said, "There is a list of [-] names on the bulletin board over there, but Jiang Kai's name is not in it, so he must not be here."

"Where is the next stop?" Yang Fan asked.

Ling Chuan also washed his face and said, "Eat."

There is probably a row of snack bars near every school that look very unhealthy but can't help but buy them.

Ling Chuan walked around with Yang Fan, and finally decided to eat Kenda Chicken, a national chain.

At this time, it was the rush hour for lunch, and there were a lot of people in the store, basically all students, and they would not hesitate to hug their shoulders, hug their waists and hold hands when they left the school gate.

There are men and women, women and women, men and men.

Ling Chuan was a little envious of them.

He used to be so close to Jiang Kai, but now, he doesn't even have a chance to say goodnight.

Jiang Kai's profile picture never lit up again.

Looking at the couple who were going out and going in and out, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

There are already many flies around Jiang Kai, will he fall in love?

There must be girls who like him and confess to him.

What if when we see Jiang Kai again, he has a girlfriend! ?

Thinking of these, he felt a little hungry.

The two wandered around S city for four days, and finally found the eave above the postcard. It was indeed in the Cultural Palace, and the set of postcards was a limited edition.

I heard from the administrator that an exhibition was held in the Cultural Palace during the graduation season of the third year of high school, and many college students participated. The winning works will be displayed for a month, and gifts and bonuses will be distributed. The postcard is also There are only fifty tickets that come with the prizes.

At that time, Jiang Kai was one of the award-winning students, and he was the first prize, so the administrator was very impressed with him.

First prize!

It really shines everywhere!

Ling Chuan was inexplicably proud.

It is a pity that the information on the registration form has been deleted, and the author cannot be contacted.

This news was like a basin of cold water, cooling him down.

In the next few days, Ling Chuan went to several nearby colleges to inquire about the news, and his whole body was tanned, which was worse than military training. When he put on his clothes, he rubbed his skin with burning pain.

Yang Fan, who is unreliable, has been playing dead and blowing the air conditioner in the hotel.

Ling Chuan didn't mind either, this was his own business in the first place, it was very good that Yang Fan was willing to lend him money and accompany him here.

The two stayed in City S for nine days, and almost ran out of money, so Ling Chuan had to give up and booked two tickets back to Yucheng.

Ling Chuan felt that he was very unlucky. After taking two steps, he fell into a big pit and couldn't see his head at all. He finally saw the light, and it disappeared after two flashes.

The futility again and again and the uncertainty about the future made him gradually lose confidence.

"Do you think this is God's will, tell me not to look for it again?" Ling Chuan couldn't help thinking while sitting on the high-speed train on the way back.

"What the gods are not gods, this is the excuse you want to give up and make for yourself." Yang Fan said.

Ling Chuan sighed resentfully.

It has to be said that although Yang Fan is not on the same channel as him most of the time, these words really hit his heart.

It was the idea of ​​giving up.

If God can give him a specific time point, three years, five years, ten years or 20 years, he can wait.

But it was this kind of unknown that made him fall into confusion again and again.

Could it be that Jiang Kai is no longer in City S?

When this idea popped up, Ling Chuan's heart was in chaos again.

After school started, there was very little free time to go to S city, and those posts on the Internet also sank.

In the summer vacation of his freshman year, he went to City S once, and then to University Y that Jiang Kai had mentioned to him, but he found nothing.

That day Ling Chuan was in class, and the phone in his pocket vibrated.

QQ messages are displayed on the lock screen interface.

He felt a little strange, since he used WeChat, no one had sent him a message on Q for almost a year, and the reason why he was still on Q was because of Jiang Kai.

Maybe one day Jiang Kai will go online and see the message.

In just a few seconds, the other party sent another new message.

That means it's not Tencent News! !

He unlocked it with some expectation.

When he saw the profile picture in the upper left corner, his heart skipped a beat, and his fingers holding the phone trembled.

Jiang Kai posted two consecutive posts, are you there?

【exist! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! 】

The above shows that the other party is typing...

In just a few seconds, Ling Chuan was so excited that his eyes were red.

Would love to go out and do a couple of laps.

I want to.

Jiang Kai appeared.

at last! ! !

Jiang Kai took the initiative to contact him! ! !

【Could you charge 100 yuan for my phone bill? Call 138XXXXXXXX. 】

Ling Chuan rubbed his eyes, and after carefully reading the line of words, he felt his heart suddenly sink, and his chest was congested.

His throat was about to burst into flames.

At this moment, he really, really hopes that this person is not a liar.

As long as it is Jiang Kai, let alone 100, even if it is 1000, 10000, he is willing to rush, no matter how much money.

As long as it is Jiang Kai.

He took a deep breath, and sent a message with that 0.1% hope.

[Lend me to copy your multiple choice questions for the exam. 】

【no problem. 】

fuck you fuck!

Ling Chuan sent a series of swear words in the past, but the other party went offline without saying a word.

In just a few tens of seconds, Ling Chuan really felt like he fell from heaven to hell.

I couldn't let go of the congested breath in my chest. I was so uncomfortable that I wanted to vomit, want to vent, and want to hit someone. I even scratched the heart of this dead liar.

This is the only way of contact between him and Jiang Kai.

The little hope left was completely disillusioned at this moment.

Jiang Kai will probably never show up again for the rest of his life.

At the thought of this, his tears became uncontrollable again.

Why is it so bad.

How can you be so unlucky.

Meeting Jiang Kai before, he probably had spent all his life's luck.

Since then, Ling Chuan has never logged into that QQ again.

In his sophomore year, Ling Chuan’s second uncle rented a much larger shop in the urban area. The photo studio was successfully upgraded to a photo studio, offering one-stop services such as wedding dress shooting, dress rental, wedding planning, and wedding decoration. He officially became an apprentice in the second uncle's photo studio.

Once the time is filled with study and work, there is no time to be empty and lonely.

It was October [-]rd, an auspicious day for the zodiac, and the studio was in charge of the weddings of eight couples. One of the cameramen's cars had an accident on the road, and Ling Chuan was taken there early in the morning as a coolie to carry the cannon.

At the end of the day, I can hardly lift my shoulders, and I have to help with retouching at night.

"Uncle, your broken computer can't do it, hurry up and change it, it's stuck." Ling Chuan resignedly restarted the PS, and had to rework the pictures just now.

"Help me see if there is a better assembly machine when you are free." The second uncle said while arranging the clothes.

"You let me make the difference, and I'll help you." Ling Chuan lit a cigarette.

"Success, no problem." The second uncle glanced at him, "Smoking less, your mother will see it when she turns around, and it will take a long time."

"That's why I smoke secretly here with you, and I don't smoke when I go home." Ling Chuan smiled.

"Would you consider coming to help me after you graduate?" Second Uncle asked.

"No," Ling Chuan said, "I plan to go to City S."

On the one hand, it was because of the good job prospects, on the other hand, he was looking forward to seeing Jiang Kai again.

There are many famous schools in S City, Jiang Kai might find a job nearby after graduation.

Even if it is a one-in-a-million hope, it is still hope.

"You young people like to run far away," the second uncle sighed, "Are you still going to do photography?"

Ling Chuan shook his head.

He likes photography, likes to capture and record with the lens.

But once the interest is regarded as a profession, the original interest needs to be affirmed by others, attached to the company and customers, and the interest may become a torment at that time.

"It's a pity, I still want to recommend you to be the number one in our studio." The second uncle said with a smile

"I'm extremely busy with this part-time job. If I'm the top card, I have to wait 24 hours a day, so I won't do it." Ling Chuan said.

"Then have you thought about what to do in the future?" Second Uncle asked.

Ling Chuan was stunned for a moment, this issue was discussed when he first met Jiang Kai.

He still clearly remembers Jiang Kai's answer, "It's best to have a job where you don't talk, because communicating with people is very tiring."

I don't know what kind of person Jiang Kai will become in the future.

It should still be so upright and so excellent.

Shiny.

The author has something to say: Brother Kai will be online tomorrow.
