Chapter 51 He Didn't Come
Chapter 51 He Didn't Come
The day of breaking up is easy to remember, mainly because that day happened to be May NO.20.Qin Zhou booked the itinerary for the day early.Fearing that the appointment would be missed, he repeatedly confirmed with Bai Zhiwang several times.
According to the plan, he would be invited to give a lecture at the university on this day, and then he and Bai Zhiwang would go to a restaurant with a discounted drink package for dinner.
Qin Zhou has been looking for various channels for the revitalization of cultural relics over the years, and he has contacted universities, museums, publishing houses, curators, etc. all over the place.But activation requires not only ideas, but also tickets. Only with tickets can people see it, and this idea is considered a success.
In the final analysis, their group is short of money, and Qin Zhou needs to seize every opportunity to demonstrate the commercial value of his ideas.
There will be many big names in the literary and art circles, investors, and well-known media in this lecture. Even if the investors don't favor them, as long as the response is good, the plan will not be aborted.However, the content published by Qin Zhou is not very popular, and the organizer is not stupid. Considering the attendance rate, it is impossible to invite Qin Zhou to give a large-scale lecture by himself, so he is listed with popular writers.
Nervously, Qin Zhou started preparations long in advance, and was still revising the draft before leaving the house.When it was time to leave, Qin Zhou came out of the bedroom and asked Bai Zhiwang, "You will come, right?"
Bai Zhiwang raised his head from his notebook, "Of course."
Qin Zhou caught a glimpse of his computer screen, where a bunch of red, green and green codes flashed.
Qin Zhou thought it was some company's new cooperation task, so he reminded him redundantly: "I must see you before the end of nine o'clock."
Bai Zhiwang smiled and said he would definitely come.
When the people had gone far away, Bai Zhiwang continued to operate the computer in a mysterious manner.He's going to make this holiday surprise before the boat goes home.
The living room was completely dark as the sun went down, and the red and green light reflected on the researcher's face.
After Bai Zhiwang finished typing the last line, he looked at the time, it was six o'clock, it was more than enough time to start now.
Because Qin Zhou was the second speaker, and his home was only four or 10 minutes away from school by car, Bai Zhiwang was not in a hurry. He put on his coat and walked out, while sending a message to Ding Gu: [Did you get something? ]
Ding Gu replied quickly: [Don't worry, the latest model is compatible with your system, I am not willing to use it.I'll call an errand and deliver it to your home at night. ]
Attach the same city pickup code after the information.
Bai Zhiwang turned off the phone in satisfaction, and when he looked up, he found that the desktop computer in the bedroom was still on, probably because Qin Zhou forgot to turn it off after finishing the draft.So he took off his shoes again, and went in with bare feet.
Before I could click, a message popped up.The two of them share all passwords, and it doesn't matter whether they show their mobile phones to each other or not, but Bai Zhiwang has never thought about it. Today, it was because the news jitter popped up the WeChat pop-up window that he accidentally saw it.
The message was sent by Brother Di to Qin Zhou: [Dude, I saw Xuanrui on the road.Do you remember him?It's the one who opened your appendix with you before. ]
appendix?In astonishment, Bai Zhiwang approached to ask for confirmation.
Qin Zhou's mobile phone and computer are simultaneously logged into WeChat, and the owner is sitting in the background of the auditorium and replies: [I remember, but I'm not interested. ]
Bai Zhiwang hurried to the bedside table to rummage through the box. All their medical materials were used to put away for easy reference.There was a thick stack of test reports in the drawer on the first floor. Bai Zhiwang searched for a long time and finally found the diagnosis result, he was relieved.
Judging from the date of hospitalization, Bai Zhiwang was still in a meeting in the United States at that time.During that time, he talked with Qin Zhou as usual, and he didn't see anything unusual.The scar was very shallow, and he found it on the bed after returning to China, but Qin Zhou always played sloppy with him, and he was distracted by other trivial matters at that time, so he didn't ask much.
Bai Zhiwang was holding on to the hospital bill tightly, and couldn't imagine how Xiao Chuan faced the desertedness of the hospital alone and smiled at himself so against his will.
He returned to the computer and moved towards the off button with trembling hands, but he couldn't press it anyway.
At this time, Brother Di said again: "Don't, I think that kid Xuan Rui misses you quite a bit, and he's doing well now, and has jumped to work as an executive in the art center."It happened that he was with me and said that he wanted to help you organize the art exhibition again. ]
Qin Zhou: [I haven't painted for a long time, what are you doing, don't mess with him all the time. ]
Brother Di: [No, don't tell me you haven't considered re-doing it for so long?Then what do you do at home when you are not at work, you are told to drink but you refuse, you are told to take pictures and you sell the lens, what are you doing? ]
Qin Zhou: [Talking about Xuanrui, what topic are you talking about.I'm serious, don't mention me to him in the future. ]
Di Ge: [I'm really not digging the topic, I just think you can fall in love, and you can't talk about other things.How many years ago did you still avoid suspicion? Teacher Bai is so narrow-minded?Listen to my brother's persuasion, even if you don't like Xuan Rui, the investment banks your father introduced are fine, which one is better than this tree? ]
Looking at these, Bai Zhiwang's heart tightened suddenly, it was more tormented than being thrown on the frying pan.This is Qin Zhou, the Qin Zhou he puts on top of his heart, Qin Zhou who is so different.
Bai Zhiwang stared straight at the screen.After a long time, he leaned back on the chair in frustration, closed his eyes, and looked dejected like a dead tree in the desert.
He even had brief auditory hallucinations.Qin Zhou beside his ear was smiling at him, asking, can you tie me down forever?
Qin Zhou didn't know that Bai Zhiwang was watching at all, but just caught a glimpse of the simultaneous login, and habitually logged out of one.
After the operation, he saw the new message from Brother Di, and it was all because he had calloused his ears since he heard the words now.
Qin Zhou became impatient, and said back: [I'll be angry if I mention this again, the investment bank was blocked 800 years ago, it's annoying. ]
Brother Di just said two words: [Yeah, what did I say before co-authoring? ]
Qin Zhou: [We can't talk to you about this matter, we can only grind it out slowly, don't worry about it. ]
Brother Di: [All right, all right, get lost. ]
Qin Zhou rolled very fast, turned off his phone, and immediately read his speech.
In order to let the audience understand, he deliberately chose popular and interesting cases, and buried a lot of stalks in the manuscript.Qin Zhou wrote this manuscript after staying up all night. Bai Zhiwang revised it three times for him, and he himself polished it twice because he thought it was not humorous enough.
It took so much thought, because besides the students, there were many guests from the cultural industry in the audience. Qin Zhou came with a mission, and he agreed to bring in a lot of cooperation funds.
The pressure of this speech was no less than that of the defense. Qin Zhou was sweating nervously listening to the speech of the person in front of him in the background.
In front of the stage is an Internet celebrity who is a trader in the industry and a sideline writing blogger, and most of the audience are his fans.He is much more comfortable than Qin Zhou. He doesn't need to speak at all, and he can win warm applause just by bowing.
He talked eloquently about his hardships in crossing the exam, earning the first 500 million hours in his life, and finally he did not forget to promote his new company, and had a great time interacting with the bigwigs and guests.
A student raised his hand and asked about the suggestion of cross-examination, saying that he likes his current major very much, but his employment prospects are relatively slim.
The blogger said very pertinently: "Apart from allowing you to brag at the wine table, some subjects are really useless in your life. Only children will take their love more seriously, because now you have parents to feed and support you." wear.
"When you are my age, you will find that the word 'like' is worthless at all. Therefore, it is better for people to mature early, especially for those of us who can only start from scratch. If we want to preserve the value of our education, we must do practical things early. Planning, this is responsible for yourself.”
Qin Zhou clenched the corner of his clothes tightly, feeling mixed feelings.This place is obviously an ivory tower, a highland of thought, and the most suitable place for dreaming.People can attend classes or read poems here, work hard and enjoy romance, learn useful skills such as medicine, law, business and industry, and think independently about the beauty, life and love of human beings.
In Qin Zhou's small world, "success" means achieving the ultimate in love, not money, status or anything else.Therefore, the meaning of the university should not be measured by "preservation of value".
Of course, he would not say that what everyone pursues is wrong, and those who struggle for survival should not be criticized.
The questioning student in the audience asked about the main points of career planning, and business elites or cultural enterprise executives took the opportunity to offer olive branches to fresh graduates.The fresh graduates started to prepare for employment early and interacted with the big guys.
The scene was so hot that the host had to come forward to remind: "Please be safe and calm, the teacher will go to the gymnasium next door to hold a signing session later. If you have other needs, you can go to the gymnasium to communicate with the teacher."
Many people in the auditorium picked up their bags and got up, going to the gymnasium to grab the queue.
Qin Zhou was swayed by the audience's enthusiasm. He looked down at his manuscript, and there was a sentence in it: [Everyone is swimming to the shore, laughing at the fool until he drowns and can't tell the sky from the water.But how beautiful the world is in the eyes of a fool, no one can see it. ]
Qin Zhou clenched the paper tightly, stared at the line for a long time, finally let go of his hand gradually, and crossed out the sentence in compromise.
He felt that it was weird to delete it directly, so he temporarily changed the subtitle to: "How to quickly complete the graduation thesis".
The traces of alteration are distorted and ugly.At this moment, he suddenly missed Bai Zhiwang terribly, and that might be the only person in the audience who could understand him.
Seven subway stops away from the auditorium, Bai Zhiwang was sitting quietly in front of the computer, lost in thought.
Bai Zhiwang didn't turn on the light, and went through their 13 years in his mind.
They have loved each other passionately, and they have endless dreams and unbreakable mountains and rivers.
Bai Zhiwang kept running, running, trying to protect his lover's childishness and sincerity.However, it wasn't until all his dreams were packaged into a piggy bank that he discovered that what Qin Zhou wanted was actually blue and white porcelain.
Qin Zhou loved his stubbornness and purity the most at the beginning, and the Qin Zhou he loved the most was also dazzling and carefree, but now they are no longer like him.Being in a prison is not what love should be like, even if they are willing to do so, they shouldn't be... dragging each other down.
A doorbell rang to break the long contemplation.It was an express delivery from Ding Guming, with a pair of special glasses in the box.
Bai Zhi checked the time belatedly, and found that it was almost 07:30.He stood up abruptly, quickly opened the door, and strode out.
There were dark clouds outside the door, and Bai Zhiwang rushed into the rain without hesitation.
The sound of rain pattered into the auditorium, and the lights in the auditorium were so bright that people were dizzy.Qin Zhou paused for a moment before he could barely see the few people in the audience.
The fans were all queuing up for the autograph session. After scanning around, Qin Zhou's eyes fixed on the middle of the first row.That was the seat for relatives and friends he left for Bai Zhiwang, and it is empty now.
Bai Zhiwang didn't come.
The only person who understands him is not there.
A great loss came up.Qin Zhou glanced at his watch and guessed if he was in a traffic jam.
Qin Zhou slowed down and plunged into his world.The speech is well-paced, detailed and appealing.
It's a pity that the guests were busy with business, so they signaled to leave shortly after Qin Zhou came on stage.Due to the small number of audience, the original question and answer session was over, and the whole speech ended early.
Qin Zhou bowed deeply to the empty auditorium, sporadic applause, mixed with harsh discussions.
"It's a pity. He is so handsome and humorous. If he tells me something else, I'm sure I'd be happy to listen."
"That's right, can't you just talk more about how to water thesis? Why do I care about repairing that thing when you talk about so many murals? Whoever fixes me first!"
"We can't even listen to the double election meeting, so we shouldn't come to the lecture, and it's impossible to study this for a lifetime."
"Well, I've only read half of the professional books, and this year's financial postgraduate entrance examination is too difficult."
……
Listening to this, Qin Zhou closed his eyes silently and bowed. When he raised his head, there were only a dozen people applauding in the audience. His eye sockets and cheeks were hot, but his whole body was soaked in damp chill.
He looked at Bai Zhiwang's seat again, which was still empty.
There is a beam of light above the position, and there are fine dust floating in the light.
The author says:
Today and tomorrow are the last knife!As painful as the knife is, the sweet couple is as sweet as it is! !
