Clow Cards Cardcaptor

Only the last two or three of the calendars starting with 12 are left. It’s the end of the year again, and after a snowy Christmas Eve not long ago,

Peking University campus,

Students who did not have such arrangements for taking exams in advance, while preparing nervously for the final exam week as usual, also relaxed a little because of the upcoming New Year's Day holiday.

As night falls, the hands on the quartz clock have passed eleven o'clock.

But the figures in the hut located by the lake did not go back to their rooms to sleep as usual an hour ago.

Maybe it has something to do with today being a rest day, but of course the more important reason is...

"Speaking of which, he ran out again just a few days after he came back. This guy is really a busy man."

She was dressed fashionably and beautifully, and came over to have dinner and spend the night on her day off. When she heard the topic being discussed but the guy was not around, Ming Ling snorted softly in annoyance,

"This is not my junior's fault. After all, this is an overseas internship arranged by the school."

The tall and gentle figure knew that the dissatisfaction in her words was because of herself. Xia Yao smiled softly and explained to the young man.

But I remembered that at the end of Christmas Eve, while walking on the bustling and beautiful pedestrian street of Dongjiang, he suddenly told everyone that he was going to North America for an internship.

I thought that before the winter vacation, I would see him lazing around the small table every day after finishing the exam, but I still felt a little disappointed.

"But with my scumbag level as a senior, I probably won't be able to get an internship at home. Overseas... hey..."

The experience in Europe and the interactions after returning made me deeply aware of how hopeless a scumbag this person is. He doesn’t care about the possibility of gaining weight even if it’s almost midnight.

While Tang Bing was eating the snacks he earned through level 4 rescue, he was worried about the guaranteed rewards of the mobile game and squeezed out the last round of limited pool draws.

Then he accurately and elegantly drew out a kokodayou...

"Hmph, after all, that's my brother who has been out of office for three out of four months in a semester,"

The corners of his mouth curled up, and Meng Lang crossed his arms with pride and said with a confident look like "No one understands me better than me":

"I even wonder if he took advantage of the school internship arrangement to go to a foreign country where no one cares about him to pick up girls and let himself go."

Smiling and speechless at his far-fetched speculation, Gou Yu looked at Fang Xiaoran, who was sitting quietly next to him, and asked why they hadn't gone back to the room to fall asleep tonight.

"Speaking of which, the captain has just been there for two days. He must be busy adapting to the environment and content. Is it okay if we call him at this time?"

Considering the time difference, he wondered whether calling now would affect the other party's internship.

"It's okay. When I asked him during the day, he said that he would have a half-day off tomorrow morning because it was a day off, and he planned to go shopping in Los Angeles shopping malls with his classmates."

After hearing Gou Yu's concerns, in view of a person's bad record of missing someone's whereabouts several times, he must ensure contact this time.

Finally, I got the other party’s report that the plane was safe as soon as it landed, as well as various ‘reports’ on arriving at the dormitory and the internship location.

Fang Xiaoran calmly put down the notes in his hand and answered aloud.

"It's winter time in the United States now. It should be around seven o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles. That kid must be up and on the road already. Hurry up, call him quickly."

She didn't want to stay up late and hurt her skin for a guy who had stolen her love three times, but she also knew that her best friend would definitely not go back to the house to sleep if she didn't hear the voice of that brat.

Having been to Los Angeles more than once, Ming Ling, who could easily calculate the time difference, urged Gou Yu to get up early and finish things early.

After receiving Fang Xiaoran's explanation, Gou Yu no longer worried. He took out his mobile phone and dialed the number through the special channel among the night game participants. He turned on the speakerphone and placed it on the small table.

Then the dialed number was quickly connected, and the young man's words came out when the mobile phone displayed 'call in progress',

"Hey, little or...?"

The moment they heard the familiar voice, the figures sitting at the small table became brighter. In such a normal contact, it is common to hear a voice named 'Fang Ran',

Somehow it has the power to make people feel relieved.

But is it my misunderstanding? Why do I always feel that Captain, you speak a little cautiously...

"It's me, captain. Today happens to be a day off and everyone is still awake. I wanted to contact you. Are you free now? Is it convenient for us to talk?"

Out of understanding, he vaguely noticed something strange. His eyes looked strange for a moment and then he asked aloud,

"Ah... I just got up, and now I'm on my way to the mall with someone. It's convenient, very convenient."

Although the young man on the other end of the phone answered in a normal and natural manner, his preconceptions made him always feel that the other person's words were a little subtle...

"How was your internship there these two days?"

Then Gou Yu, this time it was Fang Xiaoran who asked, and when he heard his sister's "checking", across the distance of the Pacific Ocean,

Fangran's voice on the phone coughed twice and suddenly answered in a very serious manner:

"Well... As for the internship... it's okay, because I just arrived. On the first day, I got familiar with the environment, prepared a bit, and handed over some tasks."

"And because there were too many people and we couldn't all be together, we arranged their respective internship positions yesterday."

Listening to him honestly explaining his internship experience to his sister, Meng Lang interjected with a 'hey' and laughed:

"So, brother, you, a fake parallel importer like you, just because you won't be assigned to the most unskilled place, can you help others pay for the air tickets paid by other companies, right?"

"Bah! Brother, you don't even know how to fart!"

Fangran's angry retort suddenly came from the other end of the phone.

"Then brother, please tell me what your job is. If it's not simple chores like adjusting gateways and changing router data,"

Without any panic, Meng Lang continued to ask sarcastically:

"What did you tell me about your internship?"

"Forehead......."

Hearing Fangran being so directly criticized by Meng Lang on the phone, he never missed this opportunity to add insult to injury. He secretly added in his resentment that he had just gambled on his last chance and got nothing.

Tang Bing grinned and knowingly mercilessly mocked his scumbag senior:

"Haha, let alone the simple chores of changing parameters. With your level of English, I think it's a problem whether you can understand the words on the menu bar of other foreign office software."

Being ridiculed with such contempt by Meng Lang, and being stabbed with eternal pain by Tang Bing's fatal blow, the voice on the phone fell silent for a moment.

Then there was a silent counterattack from Fang Ran with a smile on his face:

"Gourd, Christmas has only been three days. It seems that you have come out of the shadow of the original. It's really gratifying (hey)."

Tang Bing: "..."

"Ahhhhhhhh!! Senior! Are you a devil! Why do you want me to remember it? I tried so hard to forget it!"

The scars were revealed that night when I drank a mouthful of Erguotou and got drunk. In front of my idol, male idol, senior sister, friend, and lover, I sang the tragic black history of the magically revised version of "Breaking Point" at the top of my lungs.

Tang Bing was knocked down by Fang Ran's words and fell to the carpet unable to get up again. He covered his face and began to twist in pain that was worse than death.

Thinking of the scene that night, I couldn't help but smile hoarsely, looking at the girl beside me who could only be described as magical and interesting,

Xia Yao looked at the hands-free mobile phone on the small table and opened her mouth, as if she had a lot to say.

But in the end, he just asked in a soft voice:

"Junior, how is the weather in Los Angeles? Is it cold there?"

When he heard her voice, the phone seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then Fangran answered seriously again:

"Fortunately, it's not cold here, and the clothes I brought are enough."

"It must be hard to be jet-lagged when you first arrive abroad. Junior, please make sure to get some rest at night and don't catch a cold."

The purely warm words of concern touched something. The phone paused for a second before Fangran's slightly embarrassed voice continued to ring.

"Ah...I understand, senior."

Through the phone connecting to the other side of the ocean, people in the hut asked one after another about the situation of the young man going to North America for internship.

The young man on the phone also tried his best to answer their questions.

"By the way, let's talk about it."

Listening to Fangran's answer on the phone that he had not learned the ropes even after two days of internship, I thought to myself that this kid must not have practiced well and was paddling at work.

Ming Ling listened to the sound of him not getting out of the car. She leaned on Xia Yao and hugged her waist. She asked lazily and casually after visiting various shopping malls in Los Angeles:

"Are you still in the car? I remember that your staff dormitory is not far from the business district. Why hasn't it taken so long?"

"..."

And as if being stabilized by this question, there was suddenly no sound on the phone.

After waiting for a while, they didn't hear an answer. They all wondered why he was silent. Meng Lang, who was standing by him, was the first to let out a laugh and asked in a teasing and weird tone:

"Hey, brother, why are you silent? You really didn't have a good internship and went to North America to experience freedom, right?"

After saying that, there was silence on the phone for another second.

Then suddenly there was a soft gasp from a woman....

Everyone in the hut: "..."
