Liu Xuan rolled down the car window and lit a cigarette.

Looking through the smoke at the busy school gate, he seemed to see the island far away in the horizon and the woman in the white dress again.

Suddenly, the island seemed to be a little closer to him.

Liu Xuan smoked silently.

Not far from him, there was a new Magotan 380 parked.

A man in a smart suit was leaning on the hood, holding a bouquet of flowers.

In such a remote campus, the Audi A8 is still very attractive, and passers-by constantly cast envious glances at it.

Everyone was wondering, whose rich second-generation kid was coming to school to pick up girls?

There were even a few good-looking girls who came up to chat with him, but Liu Xuan brushed them off one by one.

He seemed to understand why those rich people were always involved in scandals. Who wouldn't be confused in such a situation?

The man driving the Magotan also noticed Liu Xuan and walked over quickly.

He leaned against the window, looked inside, and said, "Brother, this car of yours must be worth a lot of money, right?"

Liu Xuan said in a very Versailles way: "Not many, just over a hundred."

The man had a surprised expression on his face, then he took out a pack of cigarettes, opened it, and handed one to Liu Xuan: "I wish I could afford this."

Liu Xuan took the cigarette, lit it, and then gave him a big promise: "As long as you work hard enough, you can do it!"

The man's mouth twitched: "You drew this cake bigger than the mooncakes I make!"

Liu Xuan was amused by the man's humor.

He glanced at the flowers in the man's arms: "Are you here to see your girlfriend?"

The man took a puff of his cigarette, then smiled and nodded, looked around, leaned towards the bed mysteriously, and said, "My girlfriend is only a freshman in college, six years younger than me. So, although I drive a Magotan, it's not much worse than your A8, right?"

Liu Xuan nodded in agreement: "That's right!"

The man looked at Liu Xuan: "Are you here to pick up your girlfriend too?"

Liu Xuan nodded, a hint of loneliness flashing in his eyes: "I guess so!"

The man sighed, "It's hard for me to imagine how beautiful a woman worthy of you is!"

Liu Xuan smiled and said nothing.

The man poked Liu Xuan and asked him, "What do you do for a living? How come you are so rich?"

Liu Xuan didn't expect him to ask this question, so he made up a lie: "Starting a company!"

The man was very sad after hearing this: "It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others. You look as old as me and you've become a big boss, but I still haven't achieved anything!"

After saying that, he took another deep puff of his cigarette.

This aroused Liu Xuan's curiosity. After all, those who can afford to drive a Magotan at this age probably have good jobs, unless they are supported by their parents.

"What about you? What do you do for a living?" Liu Xuan stretched his hand holding a cigarette out of the car window and flicked the ash.

When this was mentioned, the man had a complaining expression again: "Don't mention it, I'm just a car mechanic. When I'm free, I write novels to make some extra money. My total monthly income is only over 8 yuan, so when you say I can afford an A, are you just exaggerating?"

This surprised Liu Xuan. He pointed at his Magotan and said, "Your car must be worth more than 20 yuan. How can you afford it with your income level?"

The man said whatever he wanted to say. He moved closer and said, "I borrowed this car from a friend. I came to see my girlfriend, so I can't lose face. I only have an old and broken Hyundai, and I'm embarrassed to drive it out!"

Liu Xuan was a little amused.

But I still comforted him: "Don't be discouraged, you can make money by writing novels!"

Unexpectedly, the man sighed and said, "It's very profitable for others, but I write novels not to make money, but to express the world I imagine through words. To put it bluntly, I live in fantasy all day long and can't get out of it!"

Liu Xuan declined to comment on this. No matter what you do nowadays, you always have to cater to the market. If you only have passion and ideals, it is difficult to make money from your hobbies.

How much is an ideal worth?

Perhaps the man in front of me is the "literary man" who holds on to the so-called literati spirit.

Kong Yiji who can't take off his long gown.

The man had just finished smoking a cigarette when the phone rang.

After he answered the phone, he smiled and said to Liu Xuan: "My girlfriend is coming out, I have to go wait for her!"

Liu Xuan smiled and nodded.

The man was about to go over, but suddenly he seemed to think of something, turned around, took out the WeChat QR code, and said, "Add me as a friend. When I really buy an A8, I'll show it off to you!"

Liu Xuan did not refuse, then took out his mobile phone and scanned the QR code.

The man also walked towards the school gate.

Soon, he accepted Liu Xuan's friend request and sent his name.

Shi Yu.

This young man, who looks very frivolous, actually has a decent name.

After the man left, Liu Xuan continued to stay in the car, watching the people coming in and out of the school gate.

Just when he was about to give up, he suddenly saw a girl in a white shirt and jeans walking out of the school gate.

Liu Xuan took off his sunglasses uncertainly and took another look.

Only then did he realize that this was the girl he had been thinking about day and night.

When it came time to really face her, Liu Xuan started to get nervous, and couldn't calm down for a long time.

But just when he was about to open the door and go down, he saw Shi Yu open his arms, and then the girl he had been thinking about day and night threw herself into his arms.

Liu Xuan withdrew his hand and just stared at the two people hugging each other.

At this moment, it seemed as if there was a piece of lead stuck in his throat.

The last time he saw the video of him going to Linnan, he vaguely guessed that a man appeared next to Li Ruoxi. He had comforted himself countless times that the man was the friend Li Ruoxi had mentioned as a childhood friend.

But today when this scene happened before his eyes, he felt a little suffocated.

He remembered Shi Yu's words.

She is his girlfriend, six years younger than him.

It was like a winner's declaration, even though they didn't know each other.

He just watched helplessly as the girl who had captured his heart got into the Magotan and disappeared from his sight.

Liu Xuan lit another cigarette, and the previous scene flashed through his mind.

The words 'I will always be with you' kept echoing in my mind.

Perhaps the so-called mutual consent was always just his wishful thinking.

As for that confession, it might be because she drank too much and the dopamine was at work.

Liu Xuan stretched out a hand and looked at the tall buildings on campus through his fingers. It seemed that he saw an isolated island in the sky above the building.

But the woman in white was gone.

There is an island in his heart, carrying the peace and tranquility he longs for, far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. There is a girl whose face cannot be seen living on the island. She has her back to him, so he cannot see her face, but he can still feel her beauty.

She seemed to be waiting for him on an isolated island, yet out of reach.

When he swam over, he found that the island was very desolate and there was no woman waiting for him.

......

I thought he and Li Ruoxi just passed each other by and would never have any contact with each other again.

But with the roar of an internal combustion engine, the Magotan stopped opposite him.

Liu Xuan suddenly remembered that the end of this road was impassable, so he had to turn around and leave in the same direction he came from.

He somewhat regretted why he sighed at the door and faced the embarrassing situation that followed.

The moment the Magotan stopped, he frantically looked for his sunglasses.

But I just threw it away casually and I don’t know where I threw the sunglasses.

"Brother, I'm leaving first. You wait for your girlfriend!"

The window of the Magotan was rolled down and Shi Yu waved at him.

The moment the car window was lowered, the familiar eyes of the co-pilot met Liu Xuan's.

Time seems to stand still at this moment.

Liu Xuan suppressed his grief, forced a smile, and said, "Okay, I wish you happiness!"

It seemed like he was talking to Shi Yu, but also like he was talking to Li Ruoxi.

Then he turned around, rolled up the window, started the car, turned around and drove in the direction he came from.

Through the rearview mirror, he saw the Magotan parked on the side of the road, the passenger door was opened, Li Ruoxi got out of the car, took two steps, and then stared in the direction he was going.

And Liu Xuan also turned into the main road.

The two souls that once almost touched each other will become strangers from this moment on.
