This summer, the most exciting topic for all netizens is not the college entrance examination in June and the high school entrance examination in July, but a big drama of the Shen Group.

Shen's is a well-known real estate group in China. In addition to real estate, it also does supporting commercial office buildings, shopping malls and other projects. In recent years, it has started to deploy film and television, and it has become very popular. To the name of the Shen family.

Rich people have a lot of gossip, and the gossip was not revealed before, not because it was hidden well, but because the Internet was not well developed at that time.Now is the era of self-media, under the gaze of eyes, what news can we hide?

So the people who eat melons learned that the head of the Shen family is nearly seventy years old and has been married three times.The first time was a well-matched family, and the marriage ended disastrously after the breakdown; the second time he and his secretary finally went to court; the third time was a 50-year-old married a 20-year-old supermodel...Three marriages left him with three differences The mother's children, the eldest son and the second daughter entered the group early, held important positions, and appeared in front of the media from time to time. Only the youngest son has just grown up and has never been exposed before.

A paparazzi got the news that although Mr. Shen is old, he has been reluctant to delegate power for a long time, allowing the two "crown princes" and "crown princesses" to fight each other in the group.It is said that at the end of last year, Boss Shen had a health problem, and his son and daughter simply "forced the palace" and put Boss Shen under house arrest!

They hid the news very closely, and even bribed several secretaries next to Mr. Shen to hide it from the board of directors.

At the critical moment, the youngest son who had just grown up suddenly rushed out and tore everything apart, and only then did the matter come out to the public.

After the incident got serious, there was another young girl who was holding a pair of twins who were still in their infancy, crying and crying in front of the camera, arguing for her status...

Hey - who said that there are no Gongdou dramas in this era?Aren't the Gongdou dramas in reality a hundred times better than those on TV?

……

Lu Ping was sitting in his breakfast shop, eating and watching gossip news on his mobile phone with relish.There are a lot of things involved in the Shen family, although at first it was just a scene of brotherhood, but then various problems within the group broke out... In short, I will appear on the stage after you sing, and there will be a headline every now and then.

"Pingping, are you done eating? Help clear the table after eating!" Mom's voice came from the kitchen console.

"Okay!" Lu Ping agreed, and quickly drank the remaining bean noodle soup in the bowl, then wiped his mouth, got up and piled up the bowls and chopsticks left on the other tables.

He moved swiftly, wiped the table with a rag, and wiped the table clean and bright.

Regular customers who come here often tease him: "Oh, thank you, little boss!"

Lu Ping grinned: "For money, don't work hard!"

"You kid, you're talking nonsense again." Father Lu heard it, and reprimanded Lu Ping half-truthfully, took the bowls and chopsticks from him, and prepared to wash them in the back kitchen, "Isn't today Saturday, you Why did you put on the school uniform again? The school needs to make up lessons?"

"Dad, you forgot, there is an event at school today." Lu Ping explained, "There is a senior year swearing-in meeting, and at the same time, there will be a coming-of-age ceremony..."

Hearing Lu Ping's words, the guests in the store all interrupted and started talking.

"The little boss goes to the No. [-] Middle School opposite, right? The No. [-] Middle School and Experimental School are the best schools in our city!"

"I remember that the third year of No. [-] Middle School is going to live on campus, right?"

"The location of your store is well chosen. My son goes to school across the road. Even if he lives in school, he can still see through the wall. It's also convenient to have lunch delivered at noon."

"Little boss, come on for the college entrance examination, take the 985, 211 or something, and then hang the admission notice on the wall for us to see!"

"However, there are so many tricks in the school now. Just a swearing-in meeting is not enough, and there is also a coming-of-age ceremony. How could there be such a thing in the early years?"

"After all, you are an adult!"

Everyone talked about each other, and the conversation was full of blessings to Lu Ping.

Now the life of the Lu family is much better than before.Fortunately, Lu's father and Lu's mother listened to Lu Ping's words, decorated the store well, and gave it a loud and playful name, which really attracted many people to cheer.Because of the good location of the store, there are many office workers coming and going, even if the school is on holiday, the passenger flow has not stopped.

At the beginning, only the husband and wife worked hard. Lu's father sold soaked shrimps, and Lu's mother sold embedded cakes. But as the business gradually improved, they hired small workers and hired red and white cases... Now, except for breakfast, they They even cook lunch and dinner, and they sell all kinds of delicacies that are common in Jiaojiang.

The store has only been open for a few months, and they are already discussing to sell the store next door!

Of course, a good business will also bring new troubles. Their home is on the North Shore and their store is on the South Shore.Lu Ping can live on campus directly in his third year of high school, but An An is still young, and it is dangerous to let her go to and from school alone, so the couple decided to transfer An An to Nan'an to study in the second grade.

Later, they simply rented a small studio in the nearby community and lived in it with their daughter.As a result, they almost moved to the south bank as a whole family. Except for vacations, they will not return to the old house on the north bank.

This incident made An An cry for a full summer vacation. She has a very good relationship with her classmates from Bei'an Primary School, especially with Xiaolong. The two have become good friends from the previous hostile relationship.

On the day of moving, Xiaolong braved the heavy rain to come to An An, and gave him a greeting card drawn by himself and a brand new Xinhua dictionary.It seemed nothing at first glance, but after turning it over, Lu Ping found out that the word "an" (an) was the first page of the pinyin search, and Xiaolong actually drew a little heart on the word "an", and put it in the folder of the word "an". A flattened little flower...

Xiao Ning's pinyin has not yet been fully recognized, but she can actually play romance!

Lu Ping: Be Vigilant.jpg

Lu Ping: My younger sister is only eight years old. Where did the wild boar come from and want to push my cabbage.jpg

However, children's affairs are children's affairs after all. Now that Lu Ping is in the third year of high school, it is the time when his schoolwork is tight, and he has no time to take care of other things.

Their third year of high school started in August, and all students had to live on campus, and they could only go home on weekends every week.The dormitory is an eight-person room, and the conditions are average. You have to queue up to take a shower and go to the toilet. Every time Lu Ping goes home on weekends, he feels that he is about to go bad.

It's September now, and the freshman and sophomores are starting school. Lu Ping looked at the commuting students, not to mention envious.He used to think it was a waste of time to commute to the north and south shores by bus every morning and evening; now he can't go back to the north shore, and he feels regretful.Sure enough, humans are such contradictory creatures.

"Pingping, I don't need your help here, you can go to school quickly." Lu's mother reminded Lu Ping while wrapping cakes quickly, "I see that your classmates are all going to school, don't be late for the swearing-in meeting!"

"Okay!" Lu Ping ran to the back kitchen to wash his hands, and adjusted his appearance in front of the mirror.

When going out, Lu's father reminded him: "Come back early after the school activities are over."

Lu Ping: "Ah? What's the matter, I still want to study in class for a while."

"Silly boy, have you forgotten what day it is today?" Father Lu smiled and pointed to the calendar on the wall, "Today is the fifth day of August."

Lu Ping: "!!!"

The fifth day of August is Lu Ping's birthday in the lunar calendar.The locals in Jiaojiang are used to celebrating birthdays in the lunar calendar, but unlike the solar calendar, you can watch them all the time, and you will miss the lunar calendar if you are not careful.

Lu Ping was promoted to the third year of high school, and he was so busy that he was dizzy every day. He only remembered that the fifth day of August was facing the ninth month of the Gregorian calendar, but he didn't pay attention to the specific day. It's his birthday!

Lu's father said: "I have discussed with your mother, we will not be open tonight, and our family of four will go out to eat. You haven't relaxed for a long time, so don't go to self-study today."

Of course, Lu Ping agreed to this proposal.

When he walked out of the store, he was in a bright mood. Even though the weather was not so good today, and the heavy cloud was pressing down on the sky, it didn't affect his happy mood.

Looking at the back of her son happily walking to school, Lu's mother asked her lover: "You can't control your mouth, did you tell Pingping that it's his birthday tonight?"

"I'm not afraid that he will delay time at school." Father Lu excused himself.

"Then you didn't tell him where to eat tonight?"

"Of course not." Lu's father hurriedly swore, "I agreed to give my son a birthday surprise."

"Tch, you didn't give him this surprise." Lu's mother scolded him, "It's still young people who have ideas. If Xiao Shen hadn't told us in advance, I would never have imagined what kind of 'birthday party' would be given to him at KFC 'Yes. The kid never said before that he likes to eat that kind of foreign fast food?"

"Hush, keep your voice down!" Papa Lu hurriedly gestured, "Don't let Pingping hear you."

……

When Lu Ping arrived at the school gate, he met many classmates in his class.

For this swearing-in meeting and coming-of-age ceremony, No. [-] Middle School specially erected an inflatable arch at the school gate, with banners hanging on it, saying "Sweat today, brilliant tomorrow", "Live up to youth, be an aspiring youth" and so on. talk.There are some decorative tables next to the flower bed, and the students who arrived early gathered there to check in and take a group photo.

Seeing Lu Ping coming, some classmates immediately pulled him over to take pictures with him.

The squad leader said mysteriously: "Today's coming-of-age ceremony, there will be a mysterious guest airborne."

"What mysterious guest? There won't be any celebrities, right?" A girl answered.

"Go, go, how is it possible?" The monitor said immediately, "Does the principal seem so generous?"

"Then what else is the mysterious guest?"

"Just a reminder, that person 'used' to be a member of our class, he was a popular king who was loved by everyone, but unfortunately he left because of family reasons..."

When he heard this sentence, Lu Ping, who was busy taking pictures as a souvenir, jumped in his heart, and Shen Yuze's name jumped into his mind almost instantly.

In that hot summer a year ago, Shen Yuze transferred to Jiaojiang, became Lu Ping's deskmate, and started their story; in the blink of an eye, a year later, the affairs of the Shen family gradually came to an end, and Lu Ping asked about Shen Yuze's situation several times, Shen Yuze couldn't say too much on the phone, he just told him "everything will be fine".

For the past six months, Lu Ping has been looking forward to the appearance of Shen Yuze almost every day, and sometimes he even has an illusion: as long as he pushes open the classroom door, he can see that figure appearing behind the desk, smiling lightly at him. He said hello.

Of course, illusions are always illusions, and Lu Ping has lost count of how many times he walked into the classroom expectantly, and how many times his expectations failed.

But this time is different - today is Lu Ping's birthday, maybe that guy will really show up and say "Happy Birthday" to him personally.

Just thinking of this possibility made Lu Ping's heart beat faster.

He couldn't wait to grab the monitor and asked, "He's back? Where is he?"

As he spoke, he raised his head and searched for the familiar figure in the crowd.

However, the moment his words fell, a hand patted his shoulder heavily, followed by a cheerful female voice: "Lu Ping, I didn't expect you to miss me so much!"

"..." Lu Ping was stunned, and turned around to look. The person behind him was none other than Chen Miaomiao, who transferred to the Provincial International School in the second semester of his sophomore year.

After not seeing each other for a semester, Chen Miaomiao has changed a lot.She had her nails done, her ears pierced, and her hair was curled. International schools do not restrict students from dressing themselves up. If her mother didn't allow her to dye her hair, she would have dyed her hair pink.

Lu Ping: "...is that you?"

"Who else is 'The King of Popularity loved by the students' but me?" Chen Miaomiao snorted, "My lady took the time to come to your coming-of-age ceremony, so you can have fun!"

Her best friend Zhou Yue hurriedly covered her mouth, and said in a low voice, "Hush your voice, keep your voice down, you sneaked in, you can't be discovered by the dean!"

"Impossible!" Chen Miaomiao pointed to the school uniform on her body, "I specially turned out the school uniform and hid it in the crowd so that he wouldn't find it."

"Why can't you find out? You perm your hair and do manicures, and he's not blind! Oh, take off your earrings quickly. If Lao Ban sees it, your parents will definitely be invited!"

"I'm not a student in No. [-] Middle School anymore..." Chen Miaomiao muttered, but she took off the earrings honestly.

Chen Miaomiao is generous and extroverted. Although she hasn't seen her former classmates for a semester, she is usually very active on the Internet and often likes and interacts with her old classmates.This time she sneaked back to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony, and everyone welcomed it.For a while, everyone surrounded her and asked her to talk more about the new school.

Lu Ping was squeezed out of the crowd, watching Chen Miaomiao being surrounded by everyone... He shook his head mockingly, the anticipation just now turned into a strong bitterness.

When will Shen Yuze return to him?

He sent Shen Yuze a message listlessly.

Lu Ping: The school held a coming-of-age ceremony today. The monitor said that an old classmate came back to attend. I thought it was you, but it turned out to be Chen Miaomiao... I wish I had you here.

This sentence was typed in the chat box, and he stared at it for a long time before deleting it word by word.

Lu Ping: Today the school held a high school senior year swearing-in meeting, so boring.

After sending the message, Shen Yuze failed to respond in time, Lu Ping stared at the chat record for a while, and silently put away the phone.He is used to this "jet lag". Many times, Shen Yuze can only send messages to him late at night or early in the morning.

After the class gathered together, the monitor led the team and led the students into the campus.

The swearing-in meeting was held in the stadium. Five hundred small stools were neatly stacked on the lawn in the middle of the playground. On the podium was a banner of "Senior Senior Swearing-in Meeting and Coming of Age Ceremony", and juniors and sisters in costumes were waiting nearby .

Every year, the swearing-in meeting follows the same process: raising the national flag, giving speeches by parents’ representatives, speaking by student representatives, performances by juniors and juniors… and finally, the principal makes a concluding statement.It will take at least two hours to complete a set of procedures. Just thinking about it feels overwhelming.

Moreover, today's weather is very bad, thick clouds are pressing on the horizon, slowly gathering above their heads with the wind.While not overcast, it looks likely to rain.

This is the case in coastal cities like theirs. There are many thunderstorms in summer, and the weather forecast doesn't work.

Someone murmured: "It won't be another typhoon."

"Impossible!" Someone retorted immediately, "If there is a typhoon, a warning will be issued long in advance. I see, this is an ordinary thunderstorm, it will only fall for a while, and the clouds will clear after a while."

"Don't be like last year, when the typhoon came as soon as we said it, and we were trapped in the school for three days."

The students were discussing in low voices, and those words poured into Lu Ping's ears, making his thoughts go back to last year involuntarily.He remembered the unexpected typhoon, the funny story of staying overnight in the gymnasium, and the haunted incident... Similarly, he also remembered the hand in hand between him and Shen Yuze under the desk in the classroom where the power suddenly went out. .

Obviously Shen Yuze only appeared in his life for a few short months, but Shen Yuze's shadow was everywhere.

It’s weird.

Lu Ping thought, why did he think of Shen Yuze so many times today?

The students in Class [-] (Grade [-]) found their seats on the playground and sat down in a hurry.The girls were in front and the boys were in the back, and Lu Ping sat in the penultimate row.

Surprisingly, the person beside him was actually Chen Miaomiao.

Lu Ping was very surprised: "Why don't you sit in the front?"

Chen Miaomiao pointed to her manicure, then pointed to the end of her permed hair, with an expression of "What do you think?"

Lu Ping: "I wanted to ask how you are doing in the new school, but now it seems that I don't need to ask. You must have adapted well."

"Hey," Chen Miaomiao shook her ponytail. "Actually, the homework is quite difficult. The teaching is pure English. Even the math class is in English. My head is getting dizzy."

Lu Ping imagined that if he was asked to listen in English in math class, he would definitely fail.

Chen Miaomiao complained: "The first time I took a math class, I understood a sentence throughout the whole process—the one and the only."

"only?"

"The straight translation is correct, but in mathematics, there is a more suitable translation."

Lu Ping asked: "How to translate in mathematics?"

"'There is one and only one solution'." Chen Miaomiao announced the answer, "How about it, isn't it very romantic?"

Theoneandtheonly, there is one and only one solution.

Lu Ping repeated these words in a murmur, with a dazed expression, as if he remembered someone.

While they were chatting in low voices, a new classmate sat down in the vacant seat behind him. Lu Ping didn't make another sound for fear of being overheard by others.

On the rostrum right in front of the playground, student representatives and parent representatives took turns to give speeches, saying something like "study hard, work hard, prepare for the college entrance examination, and meet challenges", which made people drowsy.However, the weather was not beautiful, and fine raindrops gradually fell, intermittently.

For the locals, this kind of drizzle doesn't even need an umbrella, and it can also cool down the hot weather. They wish it would rain for a little longer.

Chen Miaomiao prayed: "Don't let it rain too much, I still want to watch the performances of my juniors!"

Lu Ping: "What's there to see? A chorus and a group dance. I saw them rehearsing before. It's not interesting."

"Ah? There are only these two programs...too boring!" Chen Miaomiao immediately changed her mind, "Then let's chat."

"What are you talking about?"

"How about talking about...Shen Yuze?"

"..." Lu Ping rolled his Adam's apple slightly, and asked, "Why did you mention him all of a sudden?"

Chen Miaomiao lowered her voice, approached him and asked, "I want to know, is the Shen Group, which is full of gossip on the Internet recently, the family of Shen Yuze? - Don't pretend you don't understand. How long have you been searching, you can’t pretend you don’t know.”

Lu Ping looked serious: "Of course I know the Shen Group, but Shen Yuze's surname is only Shen, and it has nothing to do with the Shen Group."

Of course, he couldn't casually tell others about Shen Yuze's private affairs, even if Chen Miaomiao was his friend.

"I don't believe it. I've studied it carefully. According to gossip, the second son of the Shen family has just turned eighteen this year, and Shen Yuze is just right. Moreover, he is from the imperial capital and his family is very rich. Most importantly, he He left suddenly before something happened to the Shen family, how can there be such a coincidence in the world?"

"Your power of association is too rich." Lu Ping has developed the ability to lie without blinking an eye. "If Shen Yuze is really a child of the Shen family, do you think he might give up everything in the imperial capital and come to our school to study? What is this, prince Weibo private interview?"

"...Well, what you said makes sense." Chen Miaomiao, the queen of gossip, fell into deep thought. Could it be that her brain is too big and she is thinking wildly?

At this moment, the classmate sitting behind them coughed a few times.Lu Ping thought it was because they were chatting too loudly, so he hurriedly gestured to Chen Miaomiao to zip up her mouth to calm her down.

The program on the stage continued step by step. After enjoying the performances of the younger students, this lengthy swearing-in meeting and coming-of-age ceremony finally came to the last link - the principal's speech.

"Students, this is a very beautiful age. You have officially entered the ranks of adults, with freedom and responsibility.

"You are no longer children, you have a wider space to fly, and a wider ground to run, even, you can not fly or run, but dive into the bottom of the sea to explore.

"As the principal of a high school, I should say that your goal is to study hard and work hard in the last year of high school, so that everyone can be admitted to the ideal university in the end.

"But as an adult who is over half a century old, I want to tell you that the college entrance examination is not the starting point of life, let alone the end of your struggle - it is just a 'comma', and when you cross it, you will realize how serious it is. negligible.

"Among you, some students are usually among the best in grades, but when they took the exam, their mentality became unbalanced, and they eventually slipped; there are also some people who usually play around, but they performed super long in the college entrance examination, and entered a school that they had never even dared to think about before. ;Of course, more people follow the steps, enter a university that meets their own level, graduate, work, get married, have children, and then have the next generation, and repeat the above steps.”

At first, Lu Ping didn't listen very seriously, thinking it was just the principal's cliché.But as he listened, he gradually became more attentive.The students around him were the same as him. Some students who secretly lowered their heads to play with their mobile phones put down their mobile phones and looked up at the rostrum.

"What I'm talking about now is too far away from you. This is the difference between children and adults. Young people are always looking at the not-too-distant future, while us old people are always looking back at the distant past.

"Actually, 'looking back' is a very bad habit, because every time you look back, you will have regrets. You regret having quarreled with your parents when you were adolescence, you regret not saying goodbye to your classmates on the day of graduation, and you regret that you filled out a multiple-choice question in the college entrance examination. ...

"However, it is precisely because of this regret again and again that each of us has become who we are now."

The principal's narration attracted the attention of all the students, and no one even noticed that the rain falling from the sky gradually became denser and heavier.

"You are the most prosperous age.

"I want to tell you that the world is big and there are many roads. You can choose the one that suits you best, or you can choose the one that doesn't suit you so well.

"Nobody dictates which path you're going to take, nobody dictates who you're going to be.

"However, all the roads will not be smooth. There will be many difficulties in life on this road, and you need to work hard to overcome them. Those difficulties are college entrance examinations, postgraduate entrance examinations, love, career...they are one after another. 'comma' that will step past."

"—I sincerely hope that each of you can choose a path without regrets, and then try your best to run to the finish line."

When the principal's final word fell, there was warm applause from all over the playground.

Everyone originally thought that the so-called coming-of-age ceremony was just a boring preaching conference. No one could have imagined that they could hear such shocking words.Some emotionally sensitive girls were moved to tears, and fine raindrops mixed with tears fell on their faces.

Lu Ping was also very touched, he really wanted to chat with someone and share his inner excitement.

He subconsciously took out his phone and clicked on Shen Yuze's text message dialog box.

Lu Ping: I take back what I said earlier, this conference is not boring at all! ! ! !

Lu Ping: The principal’s speech touched me so much. If I were any weaker, I would cry QAQ

He thought that the message he sent this time would go nowhere, but he didn't expect that a few seconds later, he received a reply from Shen Yuze.

Shen Yuze: Well, I understand.

Lu Ping stared at the simple three words for several seconds.

Suddenly, as if a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, he suddenly stood up from his seat—fortunately, because the principal’s speech was over and the rain gradually increased, many students stood up and wanted to Going to take shelter from the rain, Lu Ping's sudden standing up was not abrupt.

"Run, the rain is getting heavier!"

"Everyone go to the teaching building!"

"Stop procrastinating!"

"Damn it, who splashed the water!"

"You actually deliberately stepped on a puddle, how old are you!"

The raindrops were as big as beans, and they fell down indiscriminately.The students laughed and made noises, some took off their school uniforms and covered their heads, some directly put a small bench on top of their heads, and passed Lu Ping in the increasing rain.

The rain wet Lu Ping's hair, and his eyes flicked anxiously across their faces, trying to find the figure he was thinking of in the crowd.

But he looked and looked, but couldn't find that person.

Until—"Mediocre."

A gentle voice came from behind.

Lu Ping trembled all over and froze in place.

He thought about that voice for a long time, read it for a long time, and recalled it for a long time, so long that he thought he was going to forget it, so long that he was used to the taste of disappointment...

The boy turned around abruptly, and looked over against the heavy rain—the figure that he had been thinking about day and night, just like this surging rain, suddenly appeared in his world.

Shen Yuze was standing there, only one step away from him.

Lu Ping's eyes widened, fine raindrops hit his face, he wiped away the annoying rainwater indiscriminately, not allowing them to block his sight.

He didn't dare to blink at all, he was afraid that this was just a dream outlined by the rain, if he blinked, Shen Yuze would disappear in front of him.

Shen Yuze seemed to have guessed what Lu Ping was thinking, and he took a step to shorten the distance between the two of them to infinitesimal.

He raised his hand to hold Lu Ping's face, trying to wipe away the rain on the boy's face, but the rain mixed with tears, and he wiped more and more.

Lu Ping's hand was attached to the back of Shen Yuze's. Even though the rain was cold, his hand was hot.

Lu Ping murmured, "I'm not dreaming again, am I?"

"of course not."

"You're back?"

"I am back."

"Don't go?"

"Don't go."

"..."

"Pingping, happy birthday. I'm sorry I kept you waiting."

……

On the playground, teenagers and girls in school uniforms ran in the rain, screaming and rushing to shelter from the rain.Pairs of sneakers stepped across the wet lawn, splashing pieces of water.

The cool rain washed away the sweltering heat of the summer. No one noticed that there were two boys standing in the heavy rain and looking at each other hand in hand.

One of them was a boy with a round face, the corners of his eyes were red, but there was a smile on his face.Another tall boy took off his school uniform jacket and put it on top of the two of them.

——The next second, the tall boy leaned over slightly, and kissed the corner of the boy's lips under the cover of his school uniform.

Precarious.

The road ahead is open.

Although Lu Ping hasn't found his own path yet, he has already found someone who can accompany him through that path.
