Yu Dong came out of the boys' dormitory and just returned to the dormitory when he saw a dark figure standing at his door. The dark figure was pacing back and forth because it was in a hurry.
As he got closer, Yu Dong recognized Liu Changmin.
He said unexpectedly: "Old...Teacher Liu, is there anything wrong with you coming to see me this late at night?"
Liu Changmin saw Yu Dong coming back and said happily: "You came back just in time. Principal Wu asked you to come over."
"Now?" Yu Dong looked up at the moon in the sky. It was already eight or nine o'clock.
"Right now." Liu Changmin affirmed.
"Okay."
In this way, Yu Dong was pulled to the principal's office by Liu Changmin before he entered the dormitory.
After sending Yu Dong to the principal's office, Liu Changmin left first.
The door to the principal's office was halfway open, and Yu Dong stretched his head to look inside. Under the dim light, Wu Changxin, with gray temples, was immersed in his desk, doing some work.
Yu Dong shook his head secretly, Lao Wu, the principal, was really speechless.
Who among the students of Jinyi doesn't know that the first door to open in the Government Affairs Building is the principal's office, and the last light to turn off is also the principal's office.
Dong Dong.
Yu Dong knocked on the door gently.
Wu Changxin raised his head, adjusted his glasses, saw Yu Dong, and immediately laughed: "It's Teacher Yu, please come in and sit down. I have some things to do here, and I'll finish them soon."
"No rush, Principal Wu, you are busy first, don't worry about me." Yu Dong smiled and walked in. He did not sit down in a hurry, but looked around the office, trying to find the parts that overlapped with his memory.
Wu Changxin glanced at Yu Dong and thought to himself that this guy didn't have stage fright.
About five minutes later, Wu Changxin put down his pen, took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer, lit one by himself, and then asked Yu Dong: "Teacher Yu, would you like one?"
"You're welcome, principal, I don't smoke."
"It's better not to smoke." Wu Changxin nodded and took a comfortable puff. It seemed that this puff of cigarette could drive away the fatigue of the day. "I don't like smoking very much. I'm just used to it and I can't change it."
"I called you here so late because of time constraints. Don't mind."
Yu Dong said quickly: "It's all up to me. The leave was too long and almost delayed the start of school."
"It's not almost, it's already delayed."
Wu Changxin's words were very direct, but he was not angry. Yu Dong knew this clearly after knowing him for so many years. Old Wu was a person who said what he said and did not take his words to heart, which made people feel comfortable.
Moreover, it is true that Yu Dong himself did something wrong. Even if Wu Changxin is angry, it is reasonable.
Before Dong Bian could say anything, Wu Changxin continued: "I believe you didn't mean it, but now that things have reached this point, your task is very heavy, so you need to work harder. Counselor, it's easy to do, but hard to do.
It is indeed a bit difficult. I won’t tell you too much about this. If you have any questions, you can ask Liu Changmin. He is a teacher and has also been a counselor and has rich experience."
"Well, Teacher Liu is a warm-hearted person and helped me a lot."
Wu Changxin nodded, looked at Yu Dong through the smoke, squinted his eyes and said, "Also, I have a personal question to ask you."
Yu Dong raised his eyebrows and said, "Say."
"When you came to Jinyi, your principal Hu contacted me. He admired you very much and originally wanted to keep you at Yan Normal University, but you refused. Can I ask why you don't want to stay at Yan Normal University?
What?"
This question...
Yu Dong himself can no longer remember the answer.
When he was reborn, the incident of refusing to stay in school had already happened.
So for him, this was decades ago.
After thinking about it, I still remembered it.
Oh, it's because of feelings.
He has a girlfriend named Xia Yangyan, a classmate of his, whom he has been dating for more than a year.
There was no earth-shattering love story. Xia Yangyan was beautiful and took the initiative to pursue her. It is said that women chase men with separate veils. Yu Dong was not unconventional and agreed without any resistance.
Later, when the unit was assigned, Xia Yangyan wanted to stay at the school, but their Chinese Department only had one student left in this class, and Yu Dong was basically chosen.
Seeing that his girlfriend was depressed every day about staying in school, Yu Dong's brain got hot and he chose to refuse to stay in school and gave her the opportunity.
At the beginning, the story was still beautiful.
Xia Yangyan thanked her boyfriend for his efforts for her and said that she would marry him in two years when their jobs are stable.
When Xia Yangyan said she wanted to marry him, Yu Dong felt that his efforts were worth it, and at the same time, an impulse arose in his heart. This was an impulse he had never felt before after talking to Xia Yangyan for more than a year.
.
When a woman says she wants to marry a man, it seems to be the highest affirmation for that man.
With this impulse and longing for the future, Yu Dong came to Jinyi. But life is not what people imagine. From time to time, God will give you a roundhouse kick.
A few months later, Yu Dong received Xia Yangyan's breakup letter.
He originally thought that he would never forget Xia Yangyan's betrayal, but time always changed things quietly. In the two months since his rebirth, he had not thought of her even once.
Yu Dong also couldn't figure out whether he had really forgotten it or whether he was deliberately avoiding it deep down in his heart.
And now there is a thorny problem, that is, he has not received Xia Yangyan's breakup letter yet. According to the development of the story, their relationship will last for another two or three months.
"Is it wrong to ask my question?"
Wu Changxin's words interrupted Yu Dong's memories. Yu Dong smiled and shook his head: "There's nothing I can't ask. Actually, it's because my parents are old and I don't want to be too far away from home."
Wu Changxin was doubtful about Yu Dong's answer, but he did not continue to ask further questions.
He flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said, "Well, I have nothing else to do here, so you should go back and rest early."
Yu Dong nodded, stood up, and when he walked to the door, he turned back and said, "Principal Wu, you should also take care of yourself. Work is important, but having a good body is what we all want to see."
of."
In his last life, Lao Wu died of exhaustion, and Yu Dong passed away a few years ago. At that time, Yu Dong dragged his illness to attend Lao Wu's funeral.
He also wanted Wu Changxin to stop smoking, but this would make him seem too ignorant as a new teacher.
After saying this, Yu Dong opened the door and walked out.
As the office door opened and closed, a cool breeze blew in from outside. The incandescent lamp swayed slightly, and a wisp of smoke from the cigarette circled around the light. The footsteps outside the door gradually faded away.
Wu Changxin stared at the door for a long time, and finally smiled happily. He could hear the difference between flattery and sincerity.
