At 12:10 in the morning, the commercial street with people coming and going in the daytime has entered a state of sleep. The whole street is empty and quiet, and the sound of motor vehicle horns coming from a distance is particularly harsh.

There are only two or three restaurants in the pedestrian street that also serve as late-night snacks that have not yet closed. A tall and thin boy walked out of the CC milk tea shop with the lights still on, carrying a garbage bag and walking to the garbage can in the middle of the pedestrian street. Standing in the shop were two girls who were only seventeen or eighteen years old, one bright and the other delicate, looking down and carefully cleaning the sink and milk tea counter.

After Fu Sitian and Chen Xizhu had cleaned everything up, Yang Yu had already thrown away the garbage and walked back. So the two took off their aprons, washed their hands and stood outside the store to wait.

Yang Yu is in charge of the keys, he washes his hands, and when the light is turned off, he will fall down the shutter door.

Fu Sitian reminded softly: "Yang Yu, the glass door is not locked yet."

Yang Yu gave a "Oh" and said with a hippie smile: "I forgot again. It's okay. The monitoring is off. The boss doesn't know that we haven't closed the door." He doesn't like to lock the glass door anymore, and he doesn't know whether the lock is. The old antique that his aunt found out from which horn was so rusty that he touched it, and that hand just washed away for nothing.

Chen Xizhu saw his reluctance. That was his aunt. Of course he was fine. It wouldn't be him who was scolded anyway. As soon as she was about to frustrate him, Fu Sitian stepped forward and picked up the lock from the corner, turned around and said, "I'm coming, give me the key."

She was standing under the street lamp, and the dim light shining on her made her skin white and snowy, with picturesque eyebrows.

Yang Yu sighed again, Fu Sitian looks really good. It's not the dazzling beauty, it's the pure and soft beauty that is unassuming, but protects the heart at a glance. His Adam's apple slid, and he was in a trance for a while.

Chen Xizhu reminded him angrily: "Man, what are you in a daze?"

Yang Yu returned to his senses in an instant, his throat tightened. He stood next to Fu Sitian and took the lock in Fu Sitian's hand. There was no seriousness on his mouth: "Hey, I'm here, how can this kind of dirty work be done by a cute girl."

Chen Xizhu snorted and was too lazy to pay attention to him, and handed a wet wipe to Fu Sitian: "Let's go, let's go back."

Fu Sitian said thank you, and politely said to Yang Yu, who was still waiting for the rolling door to fall completely: "Then let's go first, and pay attention to safety on your way."

Yang Yu grinned and said, "This is what I said to your girls." He shook the locomotive key in his hand. "Seriously, it's too late. You look beautiful and it's too unsafe. Don't ride your bike the next night shift, I'll see you off."

Chen Xizhu gave a "cut", took Fu Sitian's hand and left, and said, "It's not safe to follow you."

Behind him came Yang Yu's aggrieved defense: "Oh, look at you, who do you think of me."

Fu Sitian couldn't help showing a shallow pear vortex on his cheek.

Chen Xizhu noticed and teased her: "Why, do you want him to send you off?"

Fu Sitian had a good temper to beg for mercy: "Xi Zhu, don't make fun of me." His voice was soft, and the night breeze brushed Chen Xizhu's ears.

"I think he is interested in you, Fu Xiaomei."

After a few steps, he reached the bicycle parking position. Seeing that she was still going on, Fu Sitian had to bend over and unlock, while reluctantly retorted: "Then I think he is interested in you, Chen Dameimei."

Chen Xizhu retorted her, and the two of them talked and laughed and rode their bicycles back home.

The journey is not far, but it can be there in about twenty minutes, and Chen Xizhu and Fu Sitian can walk most of the distance together. Two more streets will be separated, Chen Xizhu suddenly sighed: "Tomorrow is the day of life and death."

On June 24, the college entrance examination is about to give results. For a family like her and Fu Sitian, it is not an exaggeration to say that this college entrance examination is the only time in their lives that they can change their destiny on their own.

"Don't worry, get a good night's sleep, and wait for your good news tomorrow." Fu Sitian looked sideways at her with a crooked smile.

Chen Xizhu's heart inexplicably relaxed under her determined eyes. She was a little embarrassed and mumbled: "You really are not nervous at all."

Without waiting for Fu Sitian to reply, she added: "Yes, what's so nervous about you, it's safe."

She and Fu Sitian are not from the same high school, but they knew each other as early as when they worked part-time in a bookstore in the second year of high school. Later, because I often work together part-time, I naturally became friends.

Fu Sitian never talked to her about her family background, but from Fu Sitian's high school entrance examination score second in the county, and finally got a scholarship to a private high school with a mediocre rate of enrollment, Chen Xizhu guessed that the situation in her family was more difficult than his own. .

"Tian Tian, ​​do you really want to report to Shen Da?"

"If the score is enough." Fu Sitian said softly.

"You must be enough. If you exceed it, you really don't change your mind?"

Shenda University is the only 985 college in their province. Compared with other ordinary colleges and universities, it is naturally a very good school. However, compared to Fu Sitian's one-to-three-mode performance, the application is too big and too wasteful.

The dissatisfaction in her words was too obvious. Fu Sitian teased her: "Xizhu, don't you want to be an alumnus with me?"

Chen Xizhu's ideal college has always been Shenda.

"It's too late for me to be happy, I'm just a pity for your results." Chen Xizhu sighed. She wanted to ask Fu Sitian, are you not going to the province for tuition and living expenses? In the province, the price of goods is obviously lower than that of the super first-tier cities where other top universities are located, and it can also save a large amount of transportation expenses each time.

But until the fork in the road was about to come, she did not dare to ask.

She was afraid of hitting Fu Sitian's sore spot.

"It's a pity." She sighed again in her heart.

"Is the street light in front of me not repaired yet? Would you like me to ride with you?" Chen Xizhu turned the subject, looking at the road opposite to his home and asked.

Fu Sitian shook his head and said softly, "No, it's just a short walk. Go back quickly, your parents should be worried about it when it's late."

Seeing her resolutely, Chen Xizhu knew that she didn't like to trouble others, so she told her: "If you don't fix it anymore, you can let your father come here to pick you up for a short period of time." Don't worry about it with your parents.

Fu Sitian nodded, waved her hand, asked her to get home and send her a text message, and then turned into the dim Huanjiang Road with ease.

The road ahead was dark and gloomy, the night wind on the river was blowing, and it was chilly, and the old bicycle rattled in the silence, poking Fu Sitian's nerves. Fu Sitian stared straight ahead without squinting his eyes, and the palms of the handlebars started to sweat.

This is the same every time I cross this section of the road, for fear that something will suddenly jump out of the road.

Panicked.

As if Ling Chi, she finally reached the bright road next to the community. She speeded up and stepped towards the light, her forehead was already covered with a fine layer of sweat.

father? Fu Sitian couldn't help chanting the term silently in his heart, and then shook his head to drive the word out of his mind.

The old-style residential houses are along the street, and the specially designated parking spaces are far away. The owners of the community find it troublesome. Non-motorized vehicles are only sparsely parked on the sidewalk. Over time, it has become natural.

Fu Sitian locked the car and went upstairs. Stand still at the door of the seventh floor and open the door lightly.

The door was opened with a slit, and there was a slender light from inside—there is someone who hasn’t slept yet?

Fu Sitian was still wondering, footsteps came from the door, and then the door was opened greatly, revealing the face of a middle-aged man.

"Tian Tian, ​​are you back? It seems a bit late today?" Fu Jiantao had kindness in his eyes, and his tone was high, as if suppressing something.

Fu Sitian stepped over his figure and saw Wang Meifen and Fu Siyu sitting side by side in the living room, but also not asleep.

"Yes, uncle, it's a bit late today."

She followed Fu Jiantao into the door, changing her shoes and cleverly responded, "Because I made another order when the door was about to close. Did I open the door and wake everyone up? Aunty, why are you still up?" She straightened up and looked down. On Wang Meifen and Fu Siyu.

Fu Siyu yawned halfway before Fu Jiantao answered, and said dissatisfied: "It's not my dad yet. I was so excited when I answered the call."

Fu Jiantao locked the anti-theft door, turned around and said excitedly: "Tian Tian, ​​just around ten o'clock, the admissions offices of Beijing University and Yan University have called." That is Beijing University and Yan University, the top universities in the country!

Fu Sitian was slightly taken aback: "Are you getting results?"

Fu Siyu ridiculed: "Everyone knows that there will be results tomorrow. You can't be a liar. Don't be too happy."

"You shut up, what do you know?" Fu Jiantao scolded his daughter.

Wang Meifen's face could not be seen good or bad, but when she heard her husband's murderous daughter, she immediately frowned to protect Fu Siyu: "What are you murdering? Xiaoyu is right."

She stared at Fu Sitian, and after speaking the second half of the sentence, "It's always right to think more, right?"

Fu Sitian stood by the sofa, lowered his eyebrows, and said sensibly: "Auntie and Xiaoyu are right. Uncle, let's wait until the results come out. It's too late. Uncle and aunt are tired for a day. Let's rest first."

It was too calm.

Fu Jiantao was a little anxious: "How could it be a liar? There are still two at one time. They even ensured their professionalism, and they said that they would give us time to consider, and they will call to confirm in two days."

He said that he was going to show Fu Sitian the notebook he had just memorized on the coffee table.

Wang Meifen said indifferently: "I didn't even say about tuition fees, scholarships, etc., and I sounded like a liar."

Fu Jiantao handed the notebook to Fu Sitian, a little displeased: "Where do people say this now. Such a good university can guarantee you that no one can ask for it. That is to say, we Tiantian will fight for it. Tiantian, look at it. Beijing University said that your scores are limited, so I can only guarantee you that you can choose these majors. But I think these are still very..."

Fu Siyu let out a cold snort from his nose, stood up and said: "You can continue to discuss with you Tian Tian, ​​I'm going to sleep."

Fu Jiantao thought that he had not heard her yin and yang strangeness, and continued to analyze it to Fu Sitian. Fu Sitian interrupted him gently: "Uncle, I will not go to these two schools."

Fu Jiantao's voice stopped, and Fu Siyu stopped walking back to the room.

Fu Sitian smiled and said warmly: "Uncle, I actually always wanted to go to Shenda University."

"Shen Da?" Fu Jiantao repeated after her subconsciously.

"Yeah." Fu Sitian nodded: "I want to report to Shenda's accountant."

She unconsciously twisted the strap of her shoulder bag, "Uncle, I want to study accounting. Teachers all say that after graduating from this major, they will find a good job. The accounting department of Shenda University is considered very good in the country. Jingda and Yan I should not have enough scores for big accountants."

When Wang Meifen heard the three words "good employment", there was a smile on his face. Looks like you have no plans to go to graduate school?

"Also, if you apply to Shenda University, I have checked that Shenda has admission scholarships, ranked according to the score of the investment file. If my score is high enough, you may be able to get this scholarship. Uncles and aunts, your burden can also be lighter."

Wang Meifen's smile became brighter.

Fu Jiantao's brows sank. He wanted to persuade him. Fu Sitian gently shook his head and continued: "Moreover, Jingda and Yanda are in the north. I don't know if I can adapt after passing. Shenda is close to home, so I can come back easily. Xiaoyu will be in her third year of high school next year, and I can give her counseling."

"Who is rare for you to give me counseling?" Fu Siyu choked on her, suddenly cursed "stupid", turned back to the room and slammed the door.

Fu Jiantao was anxious and uncomfortable. Starting from his anger, he rushed to Fu Siyu's door in three strides and patted the door: "Little bastard, what are you talking about? How do you talk to your sister?"

Wang Meifen hurriedly got up and went to pull Fu Jiantao, "What time are you yelling, what did the neighbors hear like?" She glared at Fu Sitian.

Fu Sitian hurriedly followed to appease Fu Jiantao: "Uncle, Xiaoyu is having fun with me. It's getting late, let's go to bed."

Hearing her voice, Fu Jiantao turned back to the subject and said, "Wait, Shen Da, you will consider it again. I think..."

Wang Meifen stunned him: "What do you think is useful? People and children think they are useful. Don't worry about it. Didn't you hear that Tian Tian has an idea? Go to bed, and will not go to work tomorrow?"

Fu Sitian agreed: "Uncle, I will think about it. You and aunt will take a break first."

Fu Jiantao was stared at by Wang Meifen several times, sighed deeply, and nodded.

Back in his cramped small room, the surrounding area finally became completely quiet. Fu Sitian leaned behind the door panel, a deep sense of fatigue in his heart.

She sat quietly on the chair in front of the desk for a while, took out the change of clothes from the box under the bed, and was about to take a shower when there was a knock on the door.

"Tian Tian, ​​are you asleep? Can uncle come in and say a few words?"

Fu Sitian responded, put down his clothes and opened the door.

Fu Jiantao sat on a chair, and Fu Sitian sat opposite him by the bed. The air was quiet for a few seconds, and Fu Jiantao said earnestly: "Tian Tian, ​​do you really want to go to Yan University and Beijing University?"

A pear vortex loomed on Fu Sitian's cheek, and said softly, "Uncle, it's true."

"Tian Tian, ​​don't think about other things. There is no saying that you can't bear the burden. Grandma gave us enough money. Don't think about this. You only think about your own future. Don't you really want to?"

Fu Sitian nodded earnestly: "Uncle, I really don't want to. I really want to go to the Accounting Department of Shenda University."

Fu Jiantao couldn’t see any reluctance from her face, and it was a pity in her heart that she could only helplessly say: “Well, you can think about it yourself, and my uncle respects your ideas. Although my uncle is useless, he doesn’t want you anymore. I was wronged like I did during the high school entrance examination." He stood up and touched Fu Sitian's head: "Go to bed early."

"Good night, uncle."

After Fu Jiantao left, Fu Sitian looked down at his shadow on the ground.

Do you really want to, what a pity?

She took the contract machine that Wang Meifen had retired by her pillow, opened the Weibo app, clicked on the private message, and stared at the short “Shen Da, Accounting Department.” in the dialog box. The angle of her lips became higher and higher. It was the first heartfelt smile after entering the door.

I really don't want to, it's a pity.

In fact, she is doing nothing, not for scholarships, not for saving living expenses, just for her to be there—

Shi Yi was there, in the Accounting Department of Shenda University.

She thought of her side.

Want to see her.
