At night, I couldn't help but think of Zhang Chen's face, which was exactly the same as the man in black in my dream.

What is he doing in the school in the provincial capital now? He is in military training like me. When he is alone at night, will he miss me?

Thinking of this, the corners of my mouth curled up slightly.

"Liu Feng, you're still in the mood to laugh. Are you horny? Aren't you tired?"

Hu Jing saw my expression and teased.

"Yes, Liu Feng, you are not tired. I am so tired that I am almost exhausted."

This is Hu Weiying's weak voice. Her health is worse than mine.

"No, I just remembered a funny thing from my childhood. I'm also very tired."

I demonstrated quickly.

I took a day off on the weekend. I had been thinking of taking Hu Weiying to the wholesale market, but I gave up.

Gao Jie hasn't come to the dormitory these days. After lunch, she will come here to take a nap.

I casually asked where the wholesale market was, and she told me the specific address and bus route.

Hu Weiying and I had agreed to go, but I couldn't get up on Sunday morning, so I didn't go.

In this way, we sweated profusely on the playground every day. Fortunately, I did not faint during this military training.

In the third week, shocking news broke out in the school.

"Have you heard? There was a boy in the mathematics department who fainted during military training and died when he was taken to the hospital."

During lunch on Saturday, Gao Jie came over and whispered.

"died?"

Hu Jing screamed and Gao Wei covered her mouth.

"Keep your voice down. I haven't announced this news to the public yet. I got it from gossip."

Gao Jie whispered to us and looked around, afraid that someone might hear what she said.

Oh my God! When we heard the explosive news, our eyes widened instantly and our mouths opened unconsciously, as if an egg could fit in.

My heart beat rapidly, as if it was about to jump out of my throat.

I sat there blankly, my mind was blank, and the chopsticks that I was about to put into my mouth stopped in mid-air.

I couldn't believe what I heard at all. After a long while, I came to my senses and asked in a low voice.

"Gao Jie, are you telling the truth?"

"It's absolutely true. My cousin is a nurse at the hospital. She told me the news."

The school probably doesn't want this news to spread among students so as not to cause unnecessary panic.

But the truth could not be hidden, and within a few days, the news spread among the students.

The dead boy was named Guo Xiangsong, from Wufang Town. It was said that he had very good academic performance in high school, but he failed the college entrance examination and was admitted to Jingda.

It's not surprising that the situation about this boy was leaked. After all, it is a city university and they recruit mostly students from the local area. There were more than 10 students from my previous high school who came to this school.

I sighed deeply and felt an indescribable sadness.

More than ten years of hard study carry countless dreams and expectations.

Finally I stepped into the university, which is the crystallization of many years of hard work and the light of hope for the future.

However, fate is so cruel that life suddenly dies at its most brilliant moment.

Unfinished studies and unrealized dreams have become irreparable regrets.

The youth that should have blossomed and the future full of infinite possibilities all came to an abrupt end with the coming of death.

The saddest people should be his parents. They had finally managed to raise a college student, thinking that it would bring honor to the family, but a death certificate shattered all their expectations.

I don’t know how the school handled this matter later.

However, we ended our military training a week early and entered formal university life.

"Liu Feng, here I come, haha!"

That day, after I finished breakfast and was about to lie down on the bed to read, a familiar figure appeared at the dormitory door.

"Wang Fang, it's you!"

He jumped out of bed, went to meet her, and the two of them walked around the dormitory in each other's arms.

It turned out that her father had used his connections to finally get her admitted to Jingda University, but she just paid more money and only reported to the school today.

As soon as he had packed up, he came to find me.

She was assigned to the Foreign Languages ​​Department, and became my classmate. We really have a deep bond.

From then on, the three of us could be seen on the campus’s boulevards, in the cafeteria, and in the library—of course, me, Hu Weiying, and Wang Fang.

Hu Weiying and I would occasionally attend club activities, and from time to time, a few of our works would appear in the school magazine.

Hu Jing would occasionally hang out with us. After all, our consumption levels were not on the same level. Although she didn't mean it, sometimes what she said made us uncomfortable, and gradually we distanced ourselves from her.

She also found her own playmate, another girl from another province in her class. Her family conditions were also quite good and it was said that her parents were in business.

Gao Jie only comes back to the dormitory to sleep for one night occasionally a week. Besides, she has a boyfriend and her own little world, so she won’t play with us.

During the National Day, Wang Fang and I made an appointment to go back home. My grandmother still went fishing every day, and I advised her not to work so hard.

I told her that I was going to go back to school after the holiday to start a small business and earn my living expenses, but she scolded me and said that a student's mission is to study.

She also said that Wang Erming would come back every weekend to help her.

During the holidays, I went to the street to buy some vegetables and invited Wang Erming, Hu Shuangyue and Wang Fang to have a meal at my house.

The relationship between Wang Erming and Hu Shuangpeng still seems very subtle. Hu Shuangpeng seems very enthusiastic. Perhaps it is because she has started working and she has lost the immaturity she had when she was in school.

Wang Erming seemed to be quite distant towards her.

After the holiday, we returned to school. Gu Weiying did not go home because she felt sorry for the travel expenses. During the holiday, she actually worked as a waitress in a restaurant near the door for a few days. I heard that she only got 20 yuan.

But it was also a good start for her, and she happily shared her work experience with us.

I secretly made up my mind to go to wholesale and sell some things this weekend.

"Liu Feng, I just saw a letter from you in the school's communication room."

The next day at noon, as soon as I entered the dormitory, Hu Jing handed me a letter.

Hu Jing also has a boyfriend, who is her classmate in high school. I heard he is a top student studying in Kyoto. They are always very affectionate and exchange letters frequently.

I took the letter from her in a daze. The familiar handwriting on the envelope made me ecstatic.

It was him, Zhang Chen, he wrote to me.

I even forgot to thank Hu Jing. I took the envelope and held it against my chest as if it were a treasure.

That familiar face appeared in my dreams countless times, but I couldn't tell whether that face was Zhang Chen's or the man in black.

I quickly walked to the bed, sat down, and opened the envelope impatiently, with excitement shining in my eyes.

My hands trembled slightly, as if I could feel his warmth.

Reading the words in the letter, the thoughts between the lines made my mouth curl up unconsciously, and my face was filled with a happy smile. My heart beat faster, as if it was about to jump out of my chest.

I held the letter tightly, as if it were the most precious treasure, and then gently pressed the letter against my chest again, feeling his love.
