[Four Drive Brothers] Reshaping Reality

In the second half of the year, she will be promoted to the third year of senior high school, and she is full of plans and plans. There is only half a year left before Zhou Yan is really busy with all kinds of tedious procedures.Zhou Yan sighed.

Xiaoyu couldn't bear it anymore and said, "We went shopping on weekends, so stop spreading negative energy, okay?"

Zhou Yan quickly put away her subconscious leaking of depressed emotions, and gulped down a cup of milk tea: "I'll try my best to control it, don't blame me if I can't control it."

Xiaoyu looked at her with wide eyes, and said sadly: "You just need to think more about the things in life that are worth being happy."

A look of reminiscence appeared on Zhou Yan's face: "Why do I feel that nothing good has happened in my life recently, why don't you give me a few examples to infect me?"

The pressure of schoolwork and the loneliness of not being with her family are her consistent worries. What lingers in Zhou Yan's heart recently is the loneliness and regret caused by the sequelae of the long-term farewell.The frequency of Zhou Yan's contact with Brett gradually decreased. Eight months had passed her birthday, but she still hadn't received any gifts from the United States.For this reason, she went to the post office to double-check that the book and the model that Brett gave her so preciously on the bookshelf had been smoothed by Zhou Yan.Zhou Yan thought that she should understand that Brett was facing such a rigorous training, and he didn't have time to take care of it too much.

Zhou Yan put aside all the entanglements in her heart, and sent an email to Brett as usual.Six months ago, she finally plucked up the courage and said in an email: "Is it okay for me to study in the United States in a year?" , Nervously, and excitedly kept refreshing the mailbox to see if Brett replied.After two months, Zhou Yan only waited for an abnormally short reply: "I hope you can think carefully from the perspective of the future and reality."

Zhou Yan will never forget the feeling she felt when she saw the reply, just as she will never forget the throbbing of her heart in that distant summer day.Since then, the correspondence between them has gradually become estranged and indifferent, and she seemed to be holding her breath, which led to her not having contact with Brett for a long time.Zhou Yan seems to have forgotten that there is such a thing as a multinational mailbox, but her thoughts always think about it from time to time. Will one day, after she calms down and sends an email to Brett, she will only wait for the automatic reply of the email , the words transmitted by the computer can’t read the emotions at all——“Hi, I’m Brett, I’m busy with training now, I’ll reply later, best wishes!” Or, she will wait, and the confirmation email from the server failed to send The reply, the yellow exclamation mark is shocking-"Sorry, this mailbox has been closed."

Zhou Yan couldn't let go of her feelings at that time, but her fear of losing Brett was intensified day after day because of her imagination.Brett once told her that NASA does not allow mobile devices and only equips them with phones in the training intranet, so email is the most convenient way for them to communicate.In their only channel of communication, the distance between the two of them is getting farther and farther at a rate visible to the naked eye.The once gentleness has become a heartache, and the untouchable lover gradually disappears in the summer that no longer needs to be looked forward to.

This is really, the unbearable lightness in life, Zhou Yan smiled wryly.

"Hey, are you listening to me?" Xiaoyu bit the straw dissatisfied.

Zhou Yan came back to her senses: "Oh, I'm sorry, you continue." Recently, the frequency of her mind wandering is too high.

"I mean, there are too many beautiful things in life, such as today's milk tea, which is of high quality and low price, such as the weather today, which is neither cold nor hot, and...wow, there is a handsome foreign guy who is standing Look outside the window!"

Zhou Yan laughed, she must be grateful for life, you see, in order to make her happy, her friend is so sincere, even the tone of the example is like performing a drama.

"I'm not joking, I'm serious, look out of the window now!" Xiaoyu grabbed Zhou Yan's hand forcefully.

Zhou Yan had no choice but to look out cooperatively, and the next second, her eyes froze.

"How about it, are you dumbfounded?" Xiaoyu said triumphantly beside her.

Zhou Yan walked outside the door, and said pleasantly to this old friend who had an unreasonably high rate of turning heads in the crowd: "Hugh."

……

"So you came here specifically to find me," Zhou Yan and Hugh walked slowly on the Wutong Avenue in the school, "I thought you just wandered into this street at random."

Hugh replied with a smiling voice: "I came to your school on a special trip to find you. I saw that this street is very busy on the way, and you are already out of school, so I came here to try my luck. I didn't expect to see it at a glance. it's your turn."

Xiaoyu is right, there are really many wonderful things in this world. Although her life is full of unexpected farewells every moment, it always paves the way for an unexpected reunion in the next moment.Zhou Yan's mood, which was full of dark clouds, also cleared up: "So, what are you doing in China this time? Tourism, or research?"

Hugh stopped and turned to look at Zhou Yan: "As I said just now, I made a special trip to your school to find you."

Zhou Yan suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Almost every time she saw Hugh, she would be overwhelmed by Hugh's increasingly daunting conversation skills.

"Have you chosen your study abroad country yet?" Hugh easily turned back to the guest.

Zhou Yan sighed, and Yu Zu, who had never been left behind in her heart, once again occupied the high ground: "Not yet." Although her parents are in Australia, she should not choose to study in Australia. If she chooses to study in the United States, according to the normal progress, this time At that time, she should have prepared all the materials, but her procrastination caused her to not touch those complicated materials at all.Perhaps subconsciously, the events that happened this year made Zhou Yan subconsciously want to avoid that place.

"If you choose to study in Germany, the general international students can choose, one is to take the Abitur exam to directly enter the university, and the other is to come to Germany to apply for a preparatory course after studying in the country for a year. In fact, I recommend In the former, I can help you improve your Abitur score, and I can provide you with the admission qualification of Ecolea International Arts and Sciences High School." Hugh said.

Listening to Hugh's words, Zhou Yan, who hadn't considered the systematic study abroad application steps, froze in surprise.It turns out that Hugh traveled all the way to China just to help her apply to study in Germany?Zhou Yan was really shaken. These days, she heard about the successful experience of seniors who successfully applied to the school of her choice, and after she really witnessed those cumbersome procedures, Zhou Yan realized how isolated and helpless she was without her family by her side.Hugh gave her such a beautiful blueprint. Zhou Yan believed in Hugh's sense of responsibility and ability. If she chose Germany, Hugh would definitely do what she said.

The corner of Hugh's mouth curled up: "When you went to Ecolea to enroll, I should have entered the University of Munich. At that time, I could help you get a letter of recommendation from the professor of the University of Munich."

"..." Zhou Yan didn't know how to react for a moment.Please, Hugh, please don’t remind her all the time that these terrifyingly excellent people will always be one step ahead of her. Zhou Yan suddenly felt that going to Germany to continue to suffer this kind of continuous blow that always lags behind others, It's not an absolutely beautiful thing either.Zhou Yan said, "Hugh."

"Huh?" The rising sound showed that Hugh was in a good mood.

Zhou Yan gave up and said, "Tell me, is there any imperfection in your life? I feel that I am extremely unbalanced now."

Hugh chuckled, "If you finally choose to study in Germany, my life will probably be perfect."

"..." Oh, my God, Zhou Yan didn't know what expression to make for a moment. She should have thought earlier that she shouldn't have asked this question at all.

Unknowingly, the night had fallen, and the students had either gone home together or returned to the dormitory to wash up. Zhou Yan asked hesitantly, "Do you still keep in touch with the other World Cup players?"

Hugh replied: "Mihail is now studying in a complete middle school in Bavaria. If you enter the University of Munich in the future, we can often meet. Karma has now been promoted to the official coach of the World Cup. This year's World Cup is the first time he has led Adolf and Hesla are also preparing for Abitur. In addition to former teammates, I, Jim, Edge, and Youli will also communicate with each other through emails."

"Aiji?" Zhou Yan keenly captured the key words.

Sensing Zhou Yan's attention to this name, the meaning behind this attention made Hugh frowned silently: "Ai Ji also made a special trip to Germany to watch the second World Cup. Since then, we I chat occasionally, but not too often. The last time we communicated in emails was half a year ago."

Zhou Yan stared blankly at the front. The night was cold, but spring had not yet arrived. The road was already covered with fallen leaves that had passed away over the years. As long as she asked about the content of Hugh and Aiji's communication, she believed that Hugh would definitely will tell her.But Zhou Yan immediately suppressed this thought of hers, she never wanted to get Brett's recent situation through Aiji and Hugh.She and Brett had been the closest people ever.Even now, Zhou Yan still unilaterally believes in this matter in her heart.Tangled, shaken, humble, sad, should only belong to the self in the night.

"Thank you, Hugh." Zhou Yan said solemnly after sorting out her complicated emotions.

"You still have plenty of time to think about it," Hugh raised his lips, "If you choose to go to Germany, Michael will be very happy."
