back edge

Buses to cities along the river park quietly on the small campus.

Xie Jingnian was at the end of the line carrying his suitcase, and there were almost no vacant seats when he got on the bus.

"Mr. Xie, this and this."

Half of his head poked out from the back seat, and Chen Hanlin's mobile phone was still connected to a wired earphone, dangling there as if making a call.

Everyone knows what kind of person Chen Hanlin is. Ten thousand years count down.His presence in the summer camp car was nothing more than his rich dad doing something in private.

Because of Chen Hanlin's shout, most of the eyes in the car were fixed on Xie Jingnian.They had different expressions, and Xie Jingnian who was standing at the door had a panoramic view of them all.

The aisle in the car was very narrow, Xie Jingnian could only awkwardly push the suitcase inside.Encountering a blind man crossing his legs to block the aisle, Xie Jingnian didn't bother to talk to them, and just picked up his suitcase and passed him.

When the suitcase fell to the ground, there was a "bang" sound, which made the man quickly retract his feet in fright, still cursing in a low voice.

Chen Hanlin waited until Xie Jingnian put away his luggage and sat down, and hurried over to talk to him.

From how much money his father gave him, to the scenic spots along the river, to the snacks along the river, the whole person is completely in the state of going out in summer.

Xie Jingnian didn't have much interest in these things, and occasionally echoed a few words, and finally poured cold water on people's expectant eyes.

"There are always teachers watching during the summer camp. You probably won't even be able to get out of the gate of the base."

All of Chen Hanlin's enthusiasm disappeared because of his one sentence, and he said angrily, "Then why am I here?"

"Spending money to find guilt?" Xie Jingnian shrugged, took out the earphones from his backpack, and began to play back the songs in the playlist on a loop.

Chen Hanlin became even angrier after hearing this, and took out his mobile phone to play games silently.Occasionally, I was irritated by the confusing operation of my teammates, and I couldn't help cursing a few words, and my voice filled the car with a whisper of complaints that dared not speak out.

The distance is not too far, and we arrived at the training base in less than two hours.The base is shared, and many other colleges and universities also train here.

Following the guidance of the base staff, Xie Jingnian got the key to the dormitory, which is on the second floor.It's not bad, at least going up and down the stairs won't be too much trouble.

The dormitory is a six-person room, with bed and desk.Chen Hanlin was assigned to the dormitory next to Xie Jingnian.He entered the room and wandered around before coming out, carrying his luggage to look for Xie Jingnian.

"Hey, buddy." Chen Hanlin sat on the chair with his legs open, and lit a cigarette regardless of whether he was indoors, "Let's change, I sleep next door."

The boy Chen Hanlin pointed out was not in his class, and Xie Jingnian didn't know him either.The boy was tall and slender, lowered his head and pushed his glasses, with a look of letting things go, he dragged his unopened suitcase and walked out the door.

It was rare for Chen Hanlin to see such a straightforward person, he was stunned with a cigarette in his hand, and said blankly: "Which class is this brother, so easy to talk to?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the boy come back again, stopped at the door and asked, "Which side?"

"Ah?" Chen Hanlin didn't react, "Where is that?"

"206, go out and turn right." Xie Jingnian said while taking the key from Chen Hanlin and handing it to him.

The boy nodded, turned around and left again.

The other roommates packed up their things one after another, and there were even two students from other schools in their dormitory.

The few people had no other communication except for the initial greeting. They took out their textbooks and exercises and sat there to study. Only Chen Hanlin lay on the upper bunk and played with his mobile phone.

Lunch is eaten in the lobby on the first floor, and it is a buffet-style meal.Xie Jingnian also met Fu Xue who also came to the training camp.

The two exchanged a few more pleasantries before parting ways.

Their daily life at the base is almost nothing but study.Not exactly militarized management, but not too far off.

The dormitory only has electricity from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] in the morning, and from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-] in the evening.The so-called power supply simply refers to the socket.

The light tubes on their desks for learning lighting are powered on 24 hours a day.

Chen Hanlin, a big bastard, kept complaining, saying every day that he was here to pay for his crimes. He studied countless plans for sneaking out in half a month, but none of them worked.

Xie Jingnian quickly adapted to this high-pressure environment, but he has been away from Chen Xi for too long, and he has been dreaming about him almost every night for the past week.

Xie Jingnian clicked on WeChat, deleted, deleted, and modified the sentences in the input box, leaving only one sentence at the end——

"Bro, I miss you."

Looking at the message sent out, Xie Jingnian was stunned for a moment, regretting that he had sent such a hypocritical sentence, but when he wanted to withdraw it, two minutes had passed, and he could not withdraw it.

The lower lip, which had just healed, was bitten by Xie Jingnian again, and the skin was broken without accident.

"Mr. Xie, your mouth is bleeding." Chen Hanlin went to the toilet, and when he came back, he smelled choking of cigarettes.

"fine."

Xie Jingnian tore up a piece of paper and wiped it casually, smelling the smell of smoke on Chen Hanlin's body, he felt even more like Chen Xiu.

He suppressed the restless thoughts in his heart and focused all his attention on the practice questions.

An hour passed.Brother Yu didn't reply him.

Two hours passed.Brother Yu still hasn't sent a message.

Waiting until dark, Xie Jingnian finished three sets of questions, but the mobile phone on the table still did not move.

"Tsk."

Xie Jingnian flicked his hair irritably, asked Chen Hanlin for a cigarette, and locked himself in the toilet cubicle.

He thought of Chen Xi in his heart, as if he was on fire, just reading his name lightly felt his heart throbbing, his lungs felt astringent, and the smoke was stuck in his throat and couldn't get out.

"Hey, Mr. Xie!"

Chen Hanlin's voice suddenly came from the toilet, "Someone is calling you!"

Xie Jingnian choked on being shouted, and asked who it was in a hoarse voice.

"It seems to be your brother? I didn't see it clearly. It's been ringing for a long time. You should go back and pick it up."

With a sudden heartbeat, Xie Jingnian threw down the cigarette and ran out of the toilet in a hurry.

When he saw the word "Broken Brother" displayed on the screen of his mobile phone, his heart rate went too fast on the spot, and his voice trembled unreasonably when he spoke.

"Brother Rotten... what's wrong?"

Chen Xi's voice through the phone was even more deep and magnetic, his breathing was unsteady, and he was panting heavily: "Come out, Simon."

Xie Jingnian's always bright brain was sluggish, and he didn't realize what Chen Xi meant for a long time: "What?"

"I'll give you 10 minutes to come over." Chen Xi hung up the phone after finishing speaking.

Brother Yu came to look for him?

Xie Jingnian immediately rejected this guess as soon as it crossed his mind, but he still ran downstairs with faint expectations.

Across the tall and continuous iron fence of the base, Xie Jingnian saw Chen Yu and his motorcycle at a glance.

I don't know if it's the previous one, because Xie Jingnian put all his attention on Chen Xi.

He never thought that Chen Xi would come to him.

The instant enthusiasm completely overwhelmed him, even through the iron fence that got in the way, he couldn't dispel his joy of seeing Chen Shi.

He ran in the direction of Chen Xi, completely unable to think about why Chen Xi came here suddenly.

He is full of heart and eyes, and there is only one Chen Shi.
