if you serious you lose

After going downstairs, Qin Jie walked towards the domineering black off-road vehicle, but within a few steps, he was grabbed by the person behind him. Qin Jie turned his head and looked at Yan Zhilu suspiciously.

"Let me go buy plastic wrap with you first, let's go for a walk, how about?"

Yan Zhilu's hands were dry and warm, making the still cold night after the year even warmer, and Qin Jie's heart beat a few beats softly at the moment when the person with a sad face under the streetlight made Qin Jie's heart beat faster.

"It's a good habit to walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to 99."

Qin Jie smiled, patted the back of the hand that was holding him comfortingly with the other hand, and then led Yan Zhilu towards the neighborhood supermarket.

Most of the community where Qin Jie lives is the family of teachers and staff. Although there are a few students who have moved out by themselves, many residents have returned to their hometowns during the winter vacation, so along the way, apart from Qin Jie and Yan Zhilu , basically did not see other people.

On the deserted night road, the two men held hands like this and came to the supermarket that was about to close.

After paying the bill, Yan Zhilu took the plastic bag with plastic wrap, but Qin Jie did not take Yan Zhilu back, but chose another direction leading to the inner ring of the university town, where students The preferred route for paving, running or biking.

"Have you ever been to a university town before? This road is a classic place for our students to talk about love and make friends. You see, even though it is a holiday, there are still many people here."

Walking out of the apartment complex where Qin Jie lived and came to the inner ring road, a crowd of people in twos and threes immediately appeared in front of the two of them, which was in stark contrast to the desertedness before.

"When I first returned to China, about six years ago, I came to the University City once, and I followed my boss to inspect a piece of engineering land. It is just west of the University City, and it is probably still some distance from here. At that time, I didn't think about visiting other places. The place, so, it’s basically like you’ve never been here before.”

Listening to the words of the law, Qin Jie thought of the most youthful four years he had stayed in this university city. After many years, when he returned to this place, there was still a big change. The university town that was still a little barren, but now it is full of strong commercial atmosphere.

A more convenient life and richer entertainment will undoubtedly enable young students to better spend the last, happiest and most relaxing time in their lives. If you are a college student, you must be very happy. Enjoy and even indulge in such changes.

But after all, Qin Jie is no longer a student now. Although he works in a university, his mood has changed drastically. When it comes to the beauty of the university town, he thinks more about the isolated island university that seemed "isolated" back then. city.

At that time, students would joke that they were living on an island. If they wanted more leisure and entertainment on weekdays, they had to take a limited bus to the city center. The car had to pass a bridge on the Chengjiang River in S City. There is also an entry and exit gate on the other side of the island, so everyone will jokingly call themselves "islanders".

Thinking of this, Qin Jie laughed out loud, turned his head and saw Yan Zhilu looking at him curiously.

"I spent my four years of undergraduate studies here, you know that."

"Well, I know, the university you work in is your former alma mater."

Yan Zhilu doesn't know much about Qin Jie's life in college, but if Qin Jie is willing to talk about that time tonight, Yan Zhilu will be happy to listen.

"Yes, I have returned here to teach. I am always on campus on weekdays, and all I come into contact with are people, students, and teachers." At this point, Qin Jie paused for a while, without urging him, and waited patiently. He said, "I don't know if you can understand that people in universities always live slower than people outside. It may not refer to the slowness in age, but a state of mind, a kind of cognition of the environment."

Yan Zhilu felt that Qin Jie might want to express some emotions, some real inner thoughts, so he waited more attentively.

Two people walked side by side on the inner ring road. The trees on both sides of the avenue were tall and straight. The soil and water climate of S city allowed these big trees to have luxuriant branches and leaves even in the cold season. With the help of street lights, they wantonly displayed their images on the street. The broad road was covered with two long figures stretched out.

"Look, the trees here are transplanted at first glance. If you go to the other side of the avenue, you will see the trees that really grew up in the university town. They are not as tall as these trees. But in my memory, they are always What I remember is that the trees in the university town are just saplings, and there is no shade at all when walking on the road in summer.”

"This place has only been repaired in recent years?"

"It was still under construction, at least when I graduated. But it's nice to see the changes now, and I think it fits with my vision of a university environment."

Qin Jie withdrew his gaze from a high place, silently glanced at the people around him, then turned his gaze to the road ahead full of shadow images, and then said softly.

"But it may take me several years to add this place to my perception of college towns."

Yan Zhilu seemed to understand something from Qin Jie's words and the short exchange of eyes. Although it was a bit vague, he still took the initiative to make a guess.

"Qin Jie, there are some changes here, you may not be able to accept it no matter how much time you spend?"

For the words of the law of words, Qin Jie fell into deeper memories after being briefly surprised.

"Yeah, when I say that people live slowly, I may be referring to people like me. I have very fond memories of this university and the entire university town. Those objective shortcomings back then have long since become part of my memories. At that time, the underdeveloped transportation made us young people eager for information and information work harder to contact the outside world; the lack of entertainment tools made us focus on direct communication with classmates and teachers. Now, life It is rich and convenient, but I found that this "island" has become more like an isolated island, because the "island" has all the necessary things, and students don't need to go "outside" to experience; The connection between them, just like the whole society changes with the change of technology, has changed from direct to indirect.”

After Qin Jie finished speaking, he suddenly realized something, stopped in his tracks, and turned to face Yan Zhilu with an obviously embarrassed smile.

"I seem to be suffering from an occupational disease. I can't stop thinking about what I see and feel, and sometimes I go astray. I don't mean to preach. I don't really know what I want to express. Sure. You don't mind."

"Don't say that, I can understand what you said, and I am very happy to hear what you said. Although I may not be able to feel as much about the environment I am in as you do, and it is estimated that many people, like me, have feelings for the surrounding environment. We don't think much about the changes in the environment, and we don't question them very much. Instead, we face them with a mentality of "soldiers to block, water to cover", and "one step at a time". What we present is a kind of rapid acceptance of new things. state. If, as you said, you belong to the 'slow' type of living, then I am the type of 'happy' type."

Qin Jie caught a familiar wink and looked at Yan Zhilu with a wry smile.

Of course he could hear Yanzhilu's deliberately relaxed words, and he also read a seriousness and sincerity from the way he looked at himself, which was completely different from the tone and demeanor just now. Qin Jie took a deep breath, as if to use this The movement cleared away the deepness just now, and then burst into a complete smile, returning to the really refreshing and sunny look.

Yan Zhilu squinted his eyes admiring the signature smile, couldn't help stretching out his left hand and rubbing the top of Qin Jie's head for a while, if it wasn't for the scattered passers-by around him, he would have wanted to give this man who was clearly in a state of mind at the moment A soothing hug.

At this time, he really felt the inconvenience of same-sex couples. Considering that Qin Jie is a university teacher here after all, he doesn't care, but in the current environment, if he makes an intimate move, it may have a bad influence on Qin Jie. Yan Zhilu could only gently wrap his arms around Qin Jie's shoulders, expressing his feelings at the moment.

"Then, Happy Vice President Yan, your student life abroad must have been extremely 'happy', right?"

Qin Jie didn't know why he suddenly jumped to Yan Zhilu's foreign experience, but thinking about his life abroad, I am afraid that few people would be willing to live as ordinary as himself at that age, let alone Yan Zhiru This kind of man who has received Western education since childhood.

"Haha, Qin Jie, are you only curious about your student life? Or something else?"

Although men always have a headache about how to explain the past to their significant other, Yan Zhilv feels fresh about Qin Jie's question, which obviously has a lover's tone.

"Whether it's a student life or other life, I will use 'happy' to guess, so if you think this word can accurately describe your past, then I don't need to be curious."

Regarding the ridicule of the law of words, Qin Jie decided to fight back. In fact, Qin Jie would be curious about the law of words in the past, the kind of curiosity about the growth experience and background of his sweetheart, because these have created Let yourself be fascinated by this one today.

However, if it is a more private past, just like Yan Zhilu hinted at his "love history" at this time, Qin Jie is not obsessed with it, probably because of the information revealed by Yan Zhilv in the previous conversation in the villa. It is enough to make Qin Jie feel that the emotional life of Yanzhiru in the past will not have too many details that he wants to know, but what Qin Jie's own experience tells him is that he should not be too indulged in past feelings.

At this time, the two stood side by side on the Inner Ring Avenue, with lovers and companions still passing by, while Qin Jie stared at the night sky fixedly as if attracted by something.

When Yan Zhilu heard Qin Jie's words, he had a desire to explain something. Just as he was thinking about how to choose words and sentences to let Qin Jie understand his past, a move by Qin Jie made him stop thinking.

Qin Jie took his hand and interlocked his fingers. Yan Zhilu couldn't help but widen his eyes because of the intimate feeling. Qin Jie slowly approached the two hands to him, and the soft touch came from the back of his hand. , the slight itchiness brought by the slightest breath made Yan Zhili feel a little flustered, but what came out of the thin lips with a warm color was the words that made Yan Zhiru stop thinking completely.

"The law of words, the moonlight is so beautiful tonight."
