21 days before marriage

After graduating from high school, Liu Zizhan chose to go to university in other places.On the one hand, it is because I want to leave the city where I was born, and on the other hand, because the tuition fees of universities in other places are relatively cheap, which can reduce some financial pressure on my mother.

Shen Tuo, who had always been sticking to his buttocks, also followed him without hesitation, euphemistically calling him a companion.Although the two are studying in different schools, but fortunately the two schools are close to each other, so they can still move around as frequently as before.They keep in touch with each other on the phone every day, and basically spend weekends together, so that even Liu Zizhan's roommate mistakenly thinks that they are relatives.

Liu Zizhan is very frugal in life, and saves on food and clothing as much as he can. Sometimes he doesn’t even see any meat when cooking at noon. After Shen Tuo saw it once, he bought good food for Liu Zizhan in his school. Come.Liu Zizhan said that he was nosy, but he was very warm in his heart.

One year during the summer vacation, Shen Tuo came to look for Liu Zizhan to take the train home with his bag on his back. It was a little strange to see that he was the only one left in his dormitory. "Why are you the only one here?"

"Oh, the class organized a self-guided trip to Yunnan, and they all left yesterday." Liu Zizhan explained.

"Why didn't you tell me? We can just go and have fun together..." Shen Tuo complained.

"Each person has to pay 3000 yuan, where do I get so much money?" Liu Zizhan gave him a white look.

"How long?"

"About a month or so."

"It's only 3000 a month? How appropriate!" Shen Tuo became greedy when he heard it, "I haven't been to Yunnan yet, just tell me sooner."

"What are you excited about about our class's activities?" Liu Zizhan laughed, "Stay motivated!"

"Liu Zizhan, you actually want to go too, right?"

"I just want to go home."

"Liar..."

"Are you going? If not, I'll take the train by myself." Liu Zizhan pulled up his trolley case and stood up from the bed.

After returning home, Shen Tuo often did not see her face.Liu Zizhan also found it very strange that the person who had been clinging to him before suddenly became indifferent, and he didn't know what this kid was doing.At the most outrageous time, there was no call for a whole week, Liu Zizhan couldn't sit still, so he had to take the initiative to call him.

After answering the phone call, Shen Tuo came running profusely in sweat in the afternoon, Liu Zizhan frowned, "Did you just fish it out of the river?"

"I'm so exhausted!" Shen Tuo sat down, poured himself a cold glass, and gulped it down. "You're still talking sarcastic...I work two jobs a day, is it easy for me!?"

"What do you do part-time job?" Liu Zizhan wondered.

"I've done the math. The wages I earn these days plus the savings I saved in the past few years are enough for us to go to Hong Kong for a few days." Shen Tuo said enthusiastically. "Didn't you always want to visit Hong Kong? When I finish this week, it will be almost enough."

Liu Zizhan was stunned for a moment, "Why didn't you tell me...do whatever comes to your mind?"

"Isn't that right? Otherwise, what year do we have to wait? You're such a stingy guy." Shen Tuo disdainful.

Liu Zizhan originally thought it would be too expensive to travel to Hong Kong, but he couldn't beat Shen Tuo, a stubborn bull.The two had completed the Hong Kong-Macau Exit Permit, bought a train ticket to save money, and took the train to Shenzhen first, and then entered Hong Kong through the Luohu Pass.

Shen Tuo originally wanted to play for a week, but he didn't expect that accommodation, food and drink in Hong Kong were ridiculously expensive. In less than 3 days, the two of them had almost spent all the money they brought.

On the way to Ocean Park, Liu Zizhan said, "Let's go back tomorrow, we don't have enough money."

Shen Tuo was a little frustrated, "NND, I worked so hard to earn it, but it's used up so soon, it's time to grab it..."

Liu Zizhan looked at him amusedly, "Did you come here without asking? The consumption level here is high, don't you know?"

Frustration is depression, forget all about financial pressure when playing.During the day, I would wander around Causeway Bay and Repulse Bay with my bag on my back, and sit down to eat something I saw and wanted to eat. If Liu Zizhan saw something new and thought it was interesting, he would stop and look at it for a while, and Shen Tuo would turn around and buy it.

At night, the two climbed to Victoria Harbor to see the night view, the lights flashing charmingly.Shen Tuo took Liu Zizhan to take the ferry, blowing the cool sea breeze, watching the giant oil tanker docked at the port, and lamented how comfortable the life of the rich is.

"Liu Zizhan, what do you want to do when you have money in the future?"

"I don't know... Maybe buy a big house for my mother and let her live a better life... What about you?"

"If I had money, I would take you to play around the world, and you won't be so aggrieved like this time!" Shen Tuo said angrily.

Liu Zizhan looked at him with a smile, "I don't feel aggrieved... I had a good time."

"Really?"

"Why lie to you?"

Hearing what he said, Shen Tuo immediately became happy. "This time is too short to have fun. When I save some money, next time we go to Tibet to play?"

The neon lights on the opposite bank were flickering, reflecting the bright smile on Shen Tuo's face, no matter how beautiful the night scene was, it was nothing more than this.

As long as I'm with you, I'm happy wherever I go... Liu Zizhan thought silently in his heart.

When I woke up the next morning, I couldn't even get the money for lunch.Liu Zizhan started to pack his luggage, Shen Tuo sighed, is it time to leave?He thought for a while, then suddenly rolled his eyes, and said to Liu Zizhan, "I'll go out for a while, wait for me to come back!" Then he turned and left.

Liu Zizhan waited in the hotel for nearly half an hour without knowing why, and finally saw Shen Tuo running back panting, holding a few banknotes in his hand, "Look, I have money! Let's leave in the afternoon."

Liu Zizhan asked strangely, "Where did you get the money?"

"I returned the transportation card and exchanged it for cash."

Liu Zizhan black line, "Then how will you take the train later?"

"Never mind him! We'll talk about it later." Shen Tuo looked indifferent.

For the first time, I had the urge to beat this guy up.

Shen Tuo really didn't take this matter to heart at all, and took Liu Zizhan out to have a good meal at noon.In fact, it was just a bowl of miscellaneous noodles. Liu Zizhan loved beef offal and Hong Kong-style roast duck, so Shen Tuo specially added an extra roast duck leg to his noodles.

"Don't you eat by yourself?" Liu Zizhan looked at Shen Tuo who kept adding vegetables to his bowl.

"I don't like eating this as much as you do," Shen Tuo said, "and we don't have enough money, we can't really walk home."

Many years later, as long as Liu Zizhan closes his eyes, he can still see Shen Tuo's expression at that time, with a clever smile and tenderness written in his eyes --- as if that day will never end.
