love like a shooting star

9.

Time flows quietly like water, and the days are peaceful these days.Gaocheng didn't come again, Shi Jin's heart calmed down, his energy improved a lot, and he gradually gained some appetite.In fact, Shi Jin couldn't tell if he wanted to see Gao Cheng again.If you don't want to say it, what's the matter with those thoughts all day and all night?But if you think about it, why do you feel more uncomfortable when you really see it?Now I have realized what is meant by "seeing each other is worse than not seeing each other, being affectionate is like being ruthless".Anyway, he was about to die, and it would be over by then, so he didn't have to think about it and no longer suffer, he suddenly looked forward to that day.

Gao Cheng raised his head from the computer, he was dazzled by the rapidly jumping numbers on the screen.Continuous homework all day long made his brain buzzing. Gao Cheng rubbed his sore eyes, and casually took a big white rabbit toffee and put it in his mouth.

The light in the command post built by military tents was a bit dim. At this moment, the curtain was raised, and Wang Qingrui walked in under a ray of sunlight.

Gao Cheng was a little surprised, and quickly stood up: "Uncle Wang, why are you here?" Wang Qingrui was Gao Cheng's former leader. After Gao Cheng was transferred to the Divisional Investigation Battalion, the two belonged to different departments and rarely saw each other.

"Come over here to do some errands, let's stop by to see you." Wang Qingrui found a nearby seat and sat down, looked Gao Cheng up and down, "I'm thin, and the dark circles under my eyes are heavy enough. You, you are working hard, but you have to pay attention to your body."

Gao Cheng said nonchalantly: "It's okay. I have been doing exercises and experiments these days, and I have been calculating data all night. I am too short of sleep."

Wang Qingrui took out the cigarette case to smoke by himself, but Gao Cheng winked at him and stretched out his hand as a matter of course.Wang Qingrui glared at Gao Cheng, pulled out one and threw it over.

Gao Cheng lit the cigarette and took a deep puff in his mouth. He narrowed his eyes as if he was enjoying it, and a tired and vicissitudes of life smiled at the corner of his mouth.

Wang Qingrui looked a little dazed.No matter how high Gaocheng's military rank is and how prosperous he is in the military, he is always a child in his own eyes.I watched him grow up, was admitted to the military academy, and watched him go through honing in the No. [-] Steel Company, all the way from platoon leader to battalion commander.No setbacks can dampen his fighting spirit, never give up and never give up, these six words are the foundation of Gang Qilian's pride, and also Gao Cheng's life principles.

But now Wang Qingrui feels that the child in his eyes has grown up, and he has become different from before.The Seventh Company Commander who jumped high in the sun and let his soldiers kick his ass is like a passing day. Now Gaocheng is calm and introverted in front of the soldiers, wrapping himself in a coat Next, the inner emotions are never easily revealed.Only in front of elders like Wang Qingrui who watched him grow up, would he show a moment of fatigue and fragility.

Wang Qingrui doesn't know whether such a change is good or bad, but some things are destined to be irreversible.Such as former lovers, such as lost youth, something or someone... and then grow up slowly in pain.

The atmosphere was somewhat depressing, Wang Qingrui cleared his throat and asked casually, "Is your wife going to give birth soon?"

"Soon, it's been more than seven months." Mentioning the little life that was about to be born, the lines on Gao Cheng's face softened in an instant, and the stretched eyebrows and eyes were smiling.

"Don't focus on your work. At this time, you should care more about your wife. I heard that you asked her to live in her mother's house with a big belly?" Wang Qingrui's tone was a little reproachful, "It's not that I said you are Gaocheng, how can you be such a husband? Yes. This is your Xiaorou, and you must be in a hurry to change someone. "

Gao Cheng nodded: "I know. Xiaorou is a good woman, and I owe her a lot."

"Why don't you make up for it now? When a woman is pregnant, she needs special care. Doesn't it mean that she has prenatal anxiety? It's better for you to leave your daughter-in-law at her mother's house and let her go."

"Antenatal anxiety? Uncle Wang, you really know a lot."

"Of course." Wang Qingrui said proudly and flauntingly, "When your aunt was pregnant, she was very irritable. She scolded me bloody every day, so I just endured it and coaxed her." She told her jokes when she had nothing to do, but she gave birth to a fat boy for me!"

Gao Cheng was delighted to hear it, and the demeanor of the head's wife who worked in the military organization instantly appeared in his mind. "Uncle Wang, you are a model husband, much better than me!"

Seeing that Gao Cheng was no longer tense, Wang Qingrui patted him on the shoulder and gave him a deep look. "Gaocheng, you don't look like a father who is about to become a father at all. I can see that you have something hidden in your heart. If you don't want to talk about it, I haven't asked."

"What are you talking about, Uncle Wang, you make me sound like the city is deep."

"It's not that the city is very deep, it's that the mind is too heavy."

"I......"

Wang Qingrui waved his hand: "Don't hide it, it doesn't work in front of me. Your change started after the reorganization of the Seventh Steel Company. I just want to tell you that no matter what losing the Seventh Steel Company means to you, no matter what you lost What, it’s all lost. It’s right not to give up or give up, but sometimes fate makes us give up, why do we have to cling to it!”

These words seemed to hit Gao Cheng on the head with a sap, and he froze there all of a sudden, staring at Wang Qingrui in a daze, without any confidence to speak. "Uncle Wang, what have you heard?"

"You don't need to hear it, I only see with my eyes." Wang Qingrui looked at Gao Cheng with stern eyes.Under such staring eyes, Gao Cheng lowered his head guiltily.

......

Wang Qingrui walked for a long time, Gao Cheng was still sitting there smoking, one after another, making the command post built of military tents look like a fairyland on earth.

Wang Qingrui's words were still in his ears.

"Let me ask you, the night Shi Jin was discharged from the army, you locked yourself in the office and got so drunk that you even missed the regimental meeting the next day, what happened?"

"..."

"Xu Sanduo made a big fuss in the third class. You punished him to write a [-]-word inspection. Why don't you review yourself? What kind of feelings do you have for Shi Jin?"

"...What kind of feelings...Uncle Wang, what do you mean...We, we are comrades-in-arms, brother, I am sad when he is gone, it's as simple as that."

"Gaocheng, you are still running away, so let's start from earlier. In the first year you became a company commander, I recommended Shi Jin to go to the military academy for advanced studies. He gave up that opportunity and later went to the regiment headquarters. Come and apologize to me. At that time, I really thought that the third squad leader was a freak, and he attracted my attention. As for his willingness to give up his good future, I didn’t understand it at first, but then I gradually understood the signs. Gao Cheng, you must not have understood at the time."

"I......"

"Have you ever wondered why, as the company commander, you are not angry at all when Shi Jin refused the recommendation from the regiment? Your feelings for him are not as simple as you think, but you are unwilling to face them. That's all."

It turned out to be like this, it really is like this...Since you have already seen it, Uncle Wang, why didn't you remind me?Now, it's too late, isn't it?Gao Cheng's eyes were sore from the heavy smoke, he took another puff and finally snuffed out the cigarette.

In the blurred vision, the scene just now played back in front of his eyes.

Wang Qingrui sighed looking at Gao Cheng's dazed appearance, and said earnestly: "Shi Jin is for your own good, so he chose to leave at the beginning. You should try to be a good husband and father now. Those past events...just Think it was a dream."

Gao Cheng's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of something: "Uncle Wang, did you and Uncle Tie..."

"Heh... you child, you are confused about your own affairs, but you can understand other people's affairs clearly."

"I also heard my father and my mother accidentally talk about it once."

"Is it eavesdropping?"

Gao Cheng was a little embarrassed, but still couldn't help asking: "Then you two..."

Wang Qingrui smiled calmly: "In our time, this kind of thing was even more unimaginable, and people would poke their spines and scold them. Neither of us dared to think about it back then. Later, we married wives and had children. When we think about it, it will be difficult to understand." It's late. We're very good friends now."

"Uncle Tie still can't let it go. He always competes with you during the exercise, and the way he talks to you every time..."

"Hehe, Gao Cheng, you think too much, it's just a quarrel between old friends." Wang Qingrui finally said to Gao Cheng, "You must have heard a saying that it is better to forget each other than to stay in the rivers and lakes. The railway and I are like this , You and Shi Jin can also be like this. One day you will find that the people you once loved become the most intimate friends."

After thinking about it, Gao Cheng still felt that his heart was in a mess and he couldn't figure it out, but he knew that under the current situation, he and Shi Jin couldn't get together.What is missed is ultimately missed.Shi Jin has Wu Liuyi by his side, and he will also be a father.Maybe they will really be like Wang Qingrui and the railway, it is better to forget each other than to forget each other.

The exercise experiment of the division investigation camp finally came to an end, and Gao Cheng got a week's vacation.It is said to be a vacation, but it is actually a relatively leisurely rest period for the Divisional Reconnaissance Battalion.Writing a report, making a written summary of the previous stage of the assessment, and other textual things can be done at home.The special care of the superiors allowed him to have time to go home and spend time with his wife, so Gao Cheng readily accepted this arrangement.Thinking about it, I hadn't cared about my wife for a long time, and I felt a burst of self-blame, so I decided to take him home and spend a few days in the world of two people.After packing up his things and leaving the division's investigation camp, Gaocheng drove to his father-in-law's house.

The hour hand points to twelve noon, which is the warmest time of the day.The winter sun is bright and slightly sad, just like that person's smile, accompanied by the old songs in the car CD, bringing back unforgettable memories...

The flowers in spring bloom, the wind in autumn and the setting sun in winter / Melancholic youth, I used to think so ignorantly when I was young / In the song of the four seasons, the windmill turns every day / In the poems of wind, flowers, snow and moon, I grow up every year / Flowing water it A story that takes away the time and changes a person / In that sentimental youth waiting for the first time.

Yellowed photos, old letters and faded Christmas cards/The song I wrote for you when I was young I’m afraid you’ve already forgotten it/The vows of the past are like the colorful bookmarks in the textbook/How many beautiful poems are depicted, but in the end it’s a puff of smoke/ The story of running water taking away the time changed two people / in that sentimental youth that shed tears for the first time.

The distant journey Yesterday's dream and the far away laughter / When we meet again, how many miles have we traveled / I am no longer the old familiar I have the old crazy dream / It is not the old familiar you with the same smile / The story of flowing water that takes away the time changes us / It is in the sentimental and first reminiscence of youth.

The author has something to say: The last lyrics are from "Story of Time".
