subtle trapping

The summer in England is lovely and pure, breezy and gentle.

In the first month when Ren Shaoxuan and Li Xia arrived here, the two of them were so busy that they almost flew up. At any rate, Li Xia was quite familiar with the various enrollment matters here, so it saved a lot of trouble, but trivial matters The little things are still one after another.

Because the master's degree in the UK takes less than one year, the time is relatively short, so the amount of course tasks and topics in the class is very large. The professor will have a designated reference list, and the reading list given by the topic for just one week is between five and There are between thirty books, and they are all quite professional.

Ren Shaoxuan kept complaining, but Li Xia was used to it. He read about the same amount of books every week when he communicated here. He comforted Ren Shaoxuan and said, "It's okay, I'll get used to it in the future."

The two lived together in the same apartment. Although the direction of research was different, they were in the same courtyard, and sometimes the classes were the same. The teacher taught a lot of content, which needed to be digested slowly after class. Ren Shaoxuan just came When I was in class, I found it difficult to attend lectures. After a month, I slowly got used to it and read books with a sad face every day.

Although Lixia has adapted to the rhythm here before, there are still some differences between graduate students and undergraduate students. There are too many contents that need to be digested by yourself. Almost every teacher will ask you to master a lot of things. Most of these things are required. Li Xia also found it difficult to learn by himself at first, but his strong adaptability allowed him to adapt to the rhythm very quickly.

Every day is like a spinning top without stopping, and I can fall asleep in a second when I am so tired. One day when the two came back from the library, Li Xia went to take a shower. When he came out, he saw Ren Shaoxuan holding his pajamas and waiting for him. Fell asleep.

The whole summer seems to be spent in endless books and haste, every muscle in the body is clamoring for fatigue, although there are many things to do every day, Li Xia goes for a run every day, Ren Shaoxuan sometimes runs along, sometimes he is really sleepy Unable to get up, Ren Shaoxuan admired Li Xia very much, and said: "I think you are amazing." Li Xia smiled.

Xia Tian slipped away bit by bit inadvertently, the only time that Ren Shaoxuan remembered was probably the rainy day on the weekend, when he and Li Xia could cook casually in the room, drink tea and watch a movie together, this short time The joy almost moved Ren Shaoxuan to the point of crying.

Summer passed away quietly, and the temperature began to drop little by little. In mid-autumn, outside this quiet town, the mountains and plains are full of colorful colors, yellow trees, green trees, and red trees dotted among them, which is very beautiful. , flamboyantly showing its unique charm.

Ren Shaoxuan got used to the fast-paced course study here, took a break from his busy schedule and went out with Li Xia to play around, and was deeply impressed by the beauty of this foreign country.

For a lot of time later, Ren Shaoxuan missed that time very much, he was really busy, he seemed to be driven crazy by all kinds of DDL every day, and he was so moved to see the beauty of nature that he was so moved that he didn’t know. Why, it seems that after seeing that magnificent scene, I understand how small people are.

When Christmas came, the two of them soaked in the library and knew nothing about the bustle of the outside world. It was only after the neighbors came to give Christmas gifts that they realized that today was Christmas. The two were taken aback and smiled embarrassedly.

They spent that year among endless books, and the weather in England was cloudy and rainy, but in the eyes of both of them it seemed the same.

That year, they didn’t go home during the Chinese New Year. They went to a Chinese restaurant to eat quick-frozen dumplings, and then nestled on the sofa to watch the Spring Festival Gala. Watching Ren Shaoxuan fell asleep on the sofa.

When the clock struck zero o'clock, Li Xia looked at the night sky silently, and whispered silently: "It's been another year, you have to be well."

After a pause, I thought silently, "I've been thinking about you."

Lu Jinchu, who is far away in a foreign country, is currently having an annual video chat with Chen Shen.

"Brother Shen, do you miss me?" Lu Jinchu's smiling eyes were crooked.

Chen Shen showed him the fireworks outside, while chatting, and Chen’s mother came over from time to time to intervene. Lu Jinchu smiled and told Chen’s mother that she had sent gifts to her and Shen Ge. Resentfully asked when Lu Jinchu would come back, Lu Jinchu changed the subject with a smile.

Lu Jinchu would only contact Chen Shen and the others every year on New Year's Eve. They didn't know when Lu Jinchu would come back, and they didn't even think about asking when Lu Jinchu would come back. It seemed like a natural tacit understanding Inside, you already know the answer without saying anything.

When the Mexican warm current flows mightily to the northwest coast of Europe, the winter in the UK also becomes warm and humid. There is no bone-chilling cold or stinging dryness. Such a gentle and soft season makes the winter in England gentle, flying and spreading, like Rain is not rain, smoke is not smoke.

In the foggy early morning, Li Xia was running by the river, but saw a person who looked like Lu Jinchu, Li Xia was taken aback, and ran up, but was disappointed after seeing his face clearly, it wasn't him, it just resembled him a bit.

The stranger in the mist was very puzzled by Lixia's behavior. Lixia explained to him that he looked like a friend of his own. The man smiled and said with a standard London accent: "Then this friend must be very important to you." Li Xia nodded.

Summer was coming, and it was almost time for graduation defense, Li Xia and Ren Shaoxuan began to work day and night again, but Ren Shaoxuan no longer complained about hard work and suffering, just doing it silently.

Lixia hasn't been awakened by a nightmare for a long time. One night when he was awakened suddenly, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back. After taking a shower, he was in a daze for a while, then took out the ring, put it in his palm and held it tightly. Certainly.

This is the fourth summer they have been apart. Lixia graduate student successfully graduated, returned to China, attributed all his academic achievements and some very potential data to the teacher, and Teacher Yu applied for a very important natural fund project.

Under the force of the teacher, Lixia entered a very well-known design institute in China. This design institute undertakes the design of important national projects and is a state-owned enterprise with great potential. Everyone is happy for Lixia, and Lixia just smiles lightly.

Ren Shaoxuan came back and continued to study for a doctorate at his alma mater. Li Xia asked him why he didn't continue to stay in England. Ren Shaoxuan said with a smile, "It's too tiring there, I want to live for two more years."

Grandparents are very happy to know that Lixia has joined such a powerful national unit, and they have been praising Lixia for his promise. Almost everyone in the village knows that the Gu family has a great grandson, and grandparents are very proud of themselves in the village every day.

Li Xia went to the cemetery and stood in front of his parents' graves. The autumn air was crisp and the cemetery was very cold, with birds flying by from time to time.

"Grandpa and grandma are fine, and I'm fine too. Everything is fine at home. I found a job. You don't have to worry..." Li Xia spoke slowly, saying what came to mind, for a long, long time.

After a while, Li Xia suddenly knelt down in front of his parents' grave, and kowtowed heavily, "I'm sorry, Mom and Dad, I still can't forget him, I... I'm probably going to let you down."

A few birds flew across the sky, flapping their wings and circling.

"I will wait for him, as long as I can live, Dad, Mom, I'm sorry."

On the way back, the sky began to drizzle, Li Xia raised his head to let the tiny raindrops fall on his face, but he was no longer depressed in his heart, his deep eyes were like a clear spring, which he couldn't see through or figure out.

Lixia starts from scratch, works hard, and devotes herself to work every day. The boss likes it very much. He often takes Lixia to various social occasions, and gradually gets to know many very important people in the industry.

Li Xia's drinking capacity is getting better and better, but his stomach is getting worse and worse.

The people in the office wanted to introduce Li Xia to someone, Li Xia smiled and said that he was poor and had nothing, besides, he had no time to talk about a partner because of research, and everyone said that he had never seen anyone who worked harder than Li Xia.

Going home during the Chinese New Year, grandma mentioned to Lixia that it was time to consider getting married, but Lixia smiled and said that she didn't think about it yet, work had just started, there were a lot of things to learn, and she had no time or energy.

Speaking of being busy, Lixia is really busy. He has to do research, study, compete, and shuttle between different social occasions.

Li Xia went to worship Buddha in the temple, and he was still the young monk from that year. Li Xia walked over and said with a faint smile: "We meet again." The young monk looked at Li Xia and said with a smile: "Is it still the same as before? Two."

Li Xia nodded, bowed to the Buddha, and was not in a hurry to go back. He took the two red gods from the little monk, and then took a nap in the sun beside him. A tense string, it was really relaxed in the temple at the moment, basking in the sun, the bones did not feel a little sleepy.

The little monk looked at Lixia and said: "The donor's eyes are tired, you should rest more, after all, the body is the root of everything."

Li Xia opened his eyes and looked at the little monk and said, "Well, thank you."

The little monk looked at Li Xia with a smile and didn't say much, his brows were benevolent and kind-hearted, which made people feel a little fairy-like.

Li Xia leaned on the chair next to him and kept squinting his eyes to doze off. Unexpectedly, he fell asleep after a while, and slept quite soundly, without being awakened, not haunted by nightmares, just the right amount of sleep.

When I woke up, I saw that it was only half an hour, but I felt that I had slept for a long time, as if I hadn't had such a sound sleep for a long time. After waking up, Li Xia looked at the Buddha in the temple, his eyes were clear and clear, He clenched the red rope in his hand.

The cool wind blows, the ice and snow gradually melt, the air seems to be filled with the breath of spring, and when spring comes again, the peach blossoms reveal their buds.

Li Xia murmured in his heart, "God bless my lover."

This was the beginning of the fifth year of their separation, and Gu Lixia hung the ring around his neck again.
