Chronicle of Studying Abroad

Qin Shui stood leaning against the telephone booth, snowflakes falling without stopping.

There were not many cars on the road, and everyone was driving slowly.Pedestrians are even more difficult to see, and even homeless people have disappeared.

He is waiting for Wonsan.

He still went to the airport this afternoon and sent Xue Jun to board the plane.

Xue Yun said that he decided to study music, and he discussed it with his parents.His family also helped him find a teacher in China, and when the time is right, he will re-apply for the Conservatory of Music.

For M University, he has applied for a leave of absence, which is considered a way out, even though he probably won't come back.

Qin Shui was silent and watched him enter the security check.After standing there for a long time, he slowly found a place to sit down.He thought, when Xue Yun boarded the plane, he would go back by himself.

Because this incident happened suddenly, Qin Shui found a homestay through the Internet. Although staying for a week is expensive, it is also cheaper than staying in a hotel.

By the time Xue Yun boarded the plane, it was already evening.

It gets dark quickly in winter, and when he leaves the airport, he can only see the stars and the moon.

Not long after, dark clouds came over and it began to snow again.

Ten minutes ago, just as he was about to go home after eating, he received a call from Wonsan.

Yuan Shan's voice came from another world through the phone: "Where are you?"

Qin Shui's heart was empty, and when he heard his voice, the emptiness immediately overwhelmed him: "It's in the city center."

"Send me the address, and I'll come pick you up." Yuan Shan said, Qin Shui could hear him walking around.

"It's too troublesome, and there are buses..."

"Hurry up." Yuan Shan rarely interrupted him.

Qin Shui responded with lowered eyes, hung up the phone and sent him the location.Then I received Yuanshan's voice: "I'll be there in a quarter of an hour. Find a store and go in, and I'll call you nearby."

Qin Shui should be refreshed. After sending the voice, he looked around and found a place where he could park his car. There was a red telephone booth next to him.

He couldn't help being blown by the wind, so he went into the phone booth and stood there.

Through the glass, the outside world is hazy.The light is refracted by the water marks on the glass into spots, quiet and lonely.

Wonsan will probably come by car, right?When did he get his driver's license?People here seem to have a driver's license long ago.

Qin Shui thought about it.

He doesn't want to look at his phone now, and he doesn't want to answer his mother's questions.

For Xue Jun, he has mixed feelings, and he is really chaotic.

Before the annual meeting, Xue Yun asked him to have a talk, and that time Xue Yun formally proposed to break up.

Qin Shui felt like a scumbag.

His first reaction was to breathe a sigh of relief.

This relationship is torture for both parties, but there has been no decision.

Qin Shui stretched out his hand, writing and drawing on the foggy glass.

However, there was finally a result.

A car stopped nearby, the passenger's window was rolled down, Yuan Shan leaned over and greeted Qin Shui: "Come in."

Qin Shui raised the corners of his mouth unconsciously, walked out of the phone booth quickly, opened the car door and sat in it.

"Didn't I tell you to find a store to sit for a while? It's too cold outside." Yuan Shan handed the paper cup in his hand to Qin Shui, "Hot cocoa, drink it first to warm it up."

Qin Shui took it, and said with a smile: "I'm too lazy to look for a store, you came so fast, I didn't wait long."

Yuan Shan turned on the turn signal and was looking at the rearview mirror. Hearing this, he turned to look at him: "...Have you eaten yet?"

Qin Shui hesitated for a while, then nodded: "Eat."

"That's good." Yuan Shan focused on driving again.

It was Qin Shui who brought it up first: "I'll send Xue Jun to the plane in the afternoon."

Yuan Shan responded in a low voice, hesitating for a moment: "What's his plan?"

"It is said that his parents found a music teacher for him in China, and he plans to practice for a year before applying for the conservatory." Qin Shui looked ahead, snowflakes hit the car window head-on, and were blown away by the windshield wiper.

Qin Shui added: "He suspended his studies, but his student status is still there. But it seems unlikely that he will come back to class."

Yuan Shan said: "Since it's what he wants to do, you don't have to worry too much."

Qin Shui looked at him sideways, probably because he was driving, and Yuan Shan was wearing glasses, which were the kind of round glasses with thin frames that were popular recently that looked like a scholar of the Republic of China.The bridge of his nose was straight, and the dim yellow street lamps fell in from the window, casting a gloomy shadow on his profile.

"Yuanshan..."

"kindness?"

Qin Shui called Yuan Shan, and when Yuan Shan responded, he suddenly woke up, and then realized that he was crazy about this man.

"What's wrong?" Yuan Shan asked again.

Qin Shui smiled, his face was a bit reluctant, but Yuan Shan, who was driving, didn't see it: "It's nothing. I just feel that I have failed too much..."

Yuan Shan was silent for a while: "How do you let a scumbag like me live?"

Qin Shui snorted; "Are you a scumbag? You're too modest."

"Who is modest? The only foreign student under Professor Solina from country Z is a 24-year-old Ph.D student."

Qin Shui choked, and smiled after a while: "Why does it sound so sour?"

"You think too much." Yuan Shan thought about himself when he was just 21, and secretly calculated that with the shortest two years of master's degree, he would be 25 years old when he completed his Ph.D.

Hey, why are there so many differences between people?

Qin Shui probably heard Yuan Shan's voice, and said, "You are about the same. You should be 20 this year."

"No, just turned 21 a few days ago, real age."

"How many days ago was your birthday?" Qin Shui was surprised.

Yuan Shan sighed, is this the point?The point is that I am already 21!

But he still nodded: "Yes, Christmas Eve birthday."

Qin Shui said, "I didn't even prepare a gift for you."

Yuan Shan didn't mind much about this, but still teased: "You haven't prepared Christmas presents or New Year presents for me yet."

As soon as the words were spoken, Yuan Shan realized that he hadn't prepared for Qin Shui.

Unexpectedly, Qin Shui admitted it seriously: "It's my fault, I... can I supply you in two days?"

This time Chang Yuanshan was embarrassed: "Hey, I'm just joking. I don't pay attention to this, so don't worry about it."

Qin Shui paused, smiled and took a sip of cocoa, noncommittal.

The taste of hot cocoa is not particularly sweet, but the aroma is strong and the taste is smooth, which is very good.

Yuanshan saw him drinking hot cocoa from the corner of his eye, and smiled triumphantly: "It's delicious. I know you don't like too sweet, so I guess their taste should be the same as yours."

Qin Shui glanced at the writing on the paper cup, it was "Le Passager" in French.

"It means a traveler, a passer-by." Yuanshan's voice sounded, "I didn't expect them to be open. I didn't have any hope. Because I happened to be on the way, I found out that they were open."

"Traveler." Qin Shui said it several times, and suddenly laughed.

Yuan Shan glanced at him sideways: "What's wrong? What's so funny?"

Qin Shui leaned back, turned his face to look out the window with a smile in his eyes: "This word is very suitable." He knew that what he was looking at was not the scenery outside the car, but the reflection of the man driving in the car window.

In fact, Yuan Shan always felt that the name of the store was very meaningful, and Monk Zhang Er was puzzled by Qin Shui's "suitable".

After sending Qin Shui downstairs to the apartment building where he lived, Yuan Shan shook his hand at Qin Shui, and then drove away.

Qin Shui's figure was reflected in the rearview mirror, hidden in the lights and darkness, making it difficult to see clearly.

Yuan Shan didn't mention that he had been tossing and turning for Qin Shui in the past few days, and he showed no trace in front of Qin Shui.It was only when the man turned around and got out of the car that his eyes showed some nostalgia, and the next second he shrank back and disappeared.

Wonsan, that's it.

Two days before the start of school, Yuan Shan, Su Mu'an and his party of four all went to the scene.

Guan Qiong and Xu Nanxing were here purely to join in the fun, and to cheer on Su Muan and Yuanshan by the way.

The so-called fighting dance is two groups on the same stage, with a fixed number of people in each group. Everyone in the group takes turns to go to the center of the venue to do impromptu Breaking movements to the music.

The score is judged according to the smoothness and novelty of the dancer's movements, whether they are in tune with the music beat, etc.

Because it was not a formal large-scale competition, the organizers only found a suitable indoor venue from relevant departments. After all, it was freezing outside, so it was impossible for everyone to roll and dance in the snow.

There are different levels of participation, there are pure beginners who come to experience the atmosphere of fighting dance, and some veterans who have danced for many years come to play a circle.

Everyone sits or stands in a circle, the speaker is placed directly in front, and one of the hosts who is the host and referee stands next to it.

Su Mu'an only practiced a few breaking moves in her spare time, and her main focus is jazz dance.As for this visit, she just came to support her friends.

Wonsan couldn't find all his teammates temporarily, so he casually chatted with the people next to him and got a seat.

There are not a small number of on-site teams like Wonsan, because it is just after the New Year, and not everyone can find friends to dance with.

As far as Won San knows, many of his local friends will travel to South America with their families during the Christmas holidays for the winter.

Because of the same interests and hobbies, Yuan Shan quickly became a group with the people in the team.In addition, he came to country C relatively early, has a relatively good understanding of the local culture, and has a year of wandering experience in other countries, so he is easily accepted.

There are 5 people in their group plus Wonsan, and three of them are high school students and classmates from the same school.The other, like Won San, is a college student, the senior of the three high school students.

Through communication, Yuanshan knew that this college student named James was the elder brother of one of the three high school students. This time he led a team to bring out these ignorant children to see the world.

Because the participating teams were much more unexpected, the organizers discussed it and decided that there would be only one round between each group.The three groups with the highest scores will have another round of competition, and then the winner will be determined.

Wonsan and the others drew No. 12, the sixth group to play.

Wonsan participated in many dance fights in his early years, and sometimes Xingqi and his senior could choose a few songs and fight for an afternoon.So for such a scene, he was a little eager to try.

James flexed his wrists and ankles, and said to Wonsan, who was hopping on tiptoe beside him, "Shan, don't feel pressured, just play. Don't you know how much my brother's eyes are above the top, this time he must suffer It is impossible to hit back."

Yuan Shan smiled and glanced at Dick who was standing with his arms folded not far from them: "Your brother looks very steady."

James has platinum-blonde curly hair, and his gray eyes are wide open: "Don't be fooled by his illusion! This kid is bad!"

Dick seemed to sense that they were discussing him, and he looked over with darker eyes of the same color as James, and frowned slightly. With his height half a head taller than his brother's and a powerful figure, he looked at him better than James. More like a brother.

"James." He called out his brother's name in a deep voice, "again speak ill of me behind my back."

He was speaking in a declarative sentence, obviously very clear about his brother always slandering him behind his back.

James raised his head: "What's the matter? I said you were arrogant and I was wrong?"

Dick looked like he didn't like to smile very much. His short platinum-blond hair was shaved close to his scalp, and his face was angular. Anyone who said he was in his 20s would believe him.

Seeing what his brother said, Dick raised his eyebrows: "Arrogance?"

Under his younger brother's dangerous gaze, James fell silent for a moment: "This stinky brat..." He could only read a few words softly when Dick turned his back.

Yuan Shan looked at it with a smile, thinking it was very interesting.
