In the final of the Jingnan Province Freshman Speech Contest, the first place winner was not a student from Qingmeng University, but a student from a private university.
It's eye-popping.
However, Enhua University has always advertised itself for having many foreign teachers and a strong faculty. No one believed it before, but after this time, many people really asked about Enhua University.
Enhua has more foreign teachers. Compared with other universities, the number of foreign teachers is absolutely superior. Each class is equipped with one or two foreign teachers. English corners and so on always sound mysterious and impressive to people who don’t understand.
The students of Qingmeng University were also a little confused. They originally thought that Tang Baolin should be the first place. After all, Tang Baolin was the host of the freshman party. She spoke both Chinese and English fluently and was very proud. But they did not expect that the first place would be Enhua's student.
What's more, it was held at their school's home ground, so there was nothing to say about it being unfair. I was even more speechless when I went to the campus website out of curiosity to find the video of the speech contest. When I watched the video and listened to the speeches, I inexplicably had an urge to cry.
Tragedy always seems to be more powerful and more impressive than comedy.
Moreover, in the video, the girl standing on the stage is actually very beautiful. Different from Tang Baolin's sweet and elegant appearance, the girl in the video has a very cold temperament. If Tang Baolin is the first love goddess in everyone's heart, the girl in the video is probably the girl who makes people fall in love but has been heartbroken.
Some people were particularly curious and went looking for this unexpected champion, and they actually found quite a bit. The competition profile said she won the Jinnan Province Women's 200m Freestyle Championship, which was already quite intriguing. At first glance, they thought, "Wow, Enhua even accepts students with sports expertise?" If you need sports expertise to get into Enhua, then how bad are your academic performance?
Their Qingmeng University actually does accept students with sports specialties.
If the scores in academic subjects are not enough, you can make up for it with sports.
It turned out that the other party was the record-breaker in the women's marathon this year. She was a first-class calligrapher and singer, and was not inferior to the students from Qingmeng University.
After Xiaoqi finished the competition, he closed his eyes and rested on the bus back home, feeling a little tired.
Some are half asleep and half awake.
A mechanical voice suddenly rang out in her ears: "The host has opened his heart and recounted his life experiences, touching countless people and bringing positive energy. He has received 899 drops of sincere tears. As a reward, the host can relive his life dream. Do you want to use it now?"
She seemed to be asleep but not asleep, and nodded in a daze.
She had a very long dream. In the dream, she actually saw herself who was still confused after failing the college entrance examination.
In order for me to go to college, my parents gritted their teeth and borrowed money from everywhere. Finally, they raised enough tuition and I went to Enhua. I was even worse off than Wei Cheng. Although I was very poor, I was very proud because I always thought I was better looking. Then I had a boyfriend at school, who the students knew. I didn't study well. The boy was very good. His father was a high-level leader in Fucheng. So I was always very careful to control my emotions, but he soon got tired of me. We broke up during the summer vacation of my freshman year. Every year, I had to ask my parents to borrow money from everywhere because of the expensive tuition. My temperament became more and more gloomy and my self-esteem became more and more inferior. I worked outside during the winter and summer vacations, but I didn't actually make much money. I was in a daze until graduation.
After graduation, I couldn't find a good job despite the Enhua brand. At that time, Enhua was no longer as good as before because the school's founder passed away during my junior year. The management was in chaos and the school was in a state of depression. People were in panic because it was said that the heirs wanted to split up and sell the school's land and didn't want to stay in China. During my senior year, the school's enrollment of new students dropped from more than 10,000 to more than 1,000.
Xiaoqi left Mengshi and went to Shanghai, where she rented a house with others and found a job as a cosmetics counter clerk. She had graduated for many years and had not yet repaid her student loan, let alone borrowed money from relatives, so she did not dare to go home. However, she never expected that when she returned home, her mother was gone. Her mother had always had a minor cough, but she had never taken care of it. Gumula Village is at a high altitude, and her lungs are not in good condition, so coughing is normal. But she kept coughing, and finally found that the pain was not right and went for a check-up. It turned out that she was in the late stage of lung cancer and was dying very fast.
Less than half a year.
What was Xiao Qi doing during that six months? She finally had a serious relationship, and with her good looks, they were on and off, on and off again, exhausted. She wanted to marry him, and he had a house and a stable job, but he didn't know what he meant. He always kept Xiao Qi in the dark, sometimes being very nice to her, and sometimes being very cold. Later, she said that his mother disliked Xiao Qi because she was from another place and came from the countryside.
After attending her mother's funeral, she did not accompany her old father who had become extremely old and limped even more severely. She went back and planned to break up with the man. However, the man was even faster. Because she had not been in contact with Xiaoqi for a long time, he had actually found a new partner during this period. He was introduced by his mother's friend and they were going to get married immediately. The date was even set.
Xiaoqi cried, and then she laughed while crying, and then she cried again. She cried for this fucked up life, for everything. She felt so desperate, so desperate within despair. She felt like her life was always at the bottom, a deeper bottom.
I felt so desperate in the dream, and my whole body felt like it was twitching with pain.
Did she work hard in the dream? Yes, she did. She wanted to study hard, work hard, and live a good life, but she always missed the point. She was always confused and missed the opportunity.
When the bus shook violently, Xiaoqi opened his eyes, still a little confused.
She touched her face; it was wet.
I still feel a lingering fear in my heart.
Outside the window, it was pitch black, with nothing but mountains. This was the place where the big turn was.
It was dark in the car and my roommates seemed to be asleep.
Mi'er's head tilted from side to side, swaying with the car.
Xiao Qi breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately it was just a dream.
But this dream was too complete and clear, and the feelings were too deep, which made her feel scared. Until now, her hands and feet seem to be numb, and she is immersed in that feeling of despair.
After passing this big turn, you will see a series of lights and a lake view city. You will soon reach Enhua University.
The lights slowly appeared and became brighter and brighter. The bus took Xiaoqi and his group to the dormitory door.
The head teacher got off the bus and told them to have a good rest, and then continued to take the bus back to the classroom and dormitory area.
The four of them got off the bus and went to the dormitory. They all lay down on the bed and felt quite tired.
I don't even want to play with my phone anymore.
Xiaoqi got up, changed his clothes and went for a run.
Mi'er was lying on the bed, poking her head out and asked her, "You're so tired, but you still go running? Can't you take a day off today? You've brought honor to the school, so you should celebrate."
Xiao Qi walked to the door and rubbed Mi'er's head. In the dream, Mi'er's father died accidentally due to drinking too much when he was in sophomore year. The factory went bankrupt and there were a lot of debt collectors. She also became a member of the threesome with Wei Cheng. They cooked white flour as meals in the dormitory and no longer shouted about losing weight.
She was not as lazy, smiling and heartless as she is now.
"I still have to go. I feel something is wrong if I don't run for a day. You guys should take a shower early. When I finish running, it will be my turn." Xiao Qi said with a smile.
Wearing running sweatpants and a T-shirt, facing the night wind, it was indeed cold, and I woke up. The dream was blown away. I didn't forget it as usual. It seemed to be buried in a corner of my heart.
A tab on the interface turned gray and disappeared.
She continued to run, and run, always moving forward.
She didn't look back, didn't look behind.
