Chapter 27
After returning from the writing training camp, I really have to face the college entrance examination.
"An Huainan, you know you will definitely go to Beijing, right?"
Fang Zhao asked him tentatively. She had been testing him these days, but he had never given her a positive response.
Before he was 100% sure, Fang Zhao couldn't ask directly, "Hey, An Huainan, did you travel back from ten years later?"
She didn't want to be treated as a fool yet.
She also had selfish motives, wanting to maintain her current relationship with An Huainan. She was afraid that if this window paper was broken, An Huainan would become a stranger again.
Just like how she had applied for several accounts to add him as a friend and chat with him, but after she finally exposed the truth, An Huainan ignored her again.
"I believe I will go, so Zhao, you have to accompany me."
An Huainan kept repeating the same words over and over again. It wasn't time yet, and he didn't want to break his bet with the Little River God just because Fang Zhao discovered his identity.
The big willow tree next to the garden has turned green again. The green buds are growing little by little, and the willow tree is becoming lush.
It's the willow-picking season again.
When the willow leaves have grown fully and become shiny and slippery, it is time to say goodbye.
"Wish us good luck, Zhao."
After An Huainan finished speaking, he walked into the examination room carrying his bag.
Fang Zhao looked at his back and said silently, "I wish you good luck."
After the college entrance examination, the two of them started a long-distance relationship.
I dreamed back to the examination room ten years ago, and the electric fan was still squeaking non-stop above my head.
A cordon has been set up around the school, and honking of horns and passing of large vehicles are prohibited, so the classroom is particularly quiet.
Fang Zhao identified the familiar questions and answered them carefully one by one.
Since entering this dream, she has never seen the little river god again.
She now completely doubted what Xiao Heshen said, that the results of the college entrance examination would not change no matter what.
She no longer remembers her answers from ten years ago, and even if she takes the same test paper, she will get different scores.
Could it be that some magic was used so that the papers submitted would automatically be synchronized to ten years ago?
Wen Bo and I were in the same examination room. We met each other when we came in, and we tacitly didn't speak to each other.
This is also the last time we meet.
When leaving the examination room, Fang Zhao stood alone beside the mirrored wall of the teaching building, watching the people walking past in the mirror one after another, feeling as if he were floating in the world.
All kinds of spare parts were scattered around the campus, including broken books, torn exercise books, and even glasses with a missing leg.
Parents who drove to pick up their students had already lined up outside the campus. Because it is a boarding school, many students' luggage needed to be carried home.
Fang Zhao and An Huainan agreed to meet on campus when the scores were due.
After the two finished the exam, they each walked towards their dormitories in a panic.
He was very calm, and Fang Zhao felt as if he was walking through the smoke and flames of war.
Fang Zhao's mother was quite efficient. She quickly packed up all of Fang Zhao's luggage and loaded it into the car, including a pile of very heavy books.
Fang Zhao sat on a pile of books, looking at the gloomy sky in the distance, feeling as if dark clouds were pressing down on him.
Like the calm before the storm.
On the day of checking the scores, Fang Zhao specially changed into a new dress that was relatively nice in the closet, tied her hair that had finally grown long into a braid, and rode her bike to the school early to find An Huainan.
Of course, in her pocket was also the school and application form that Fang Zhao's mother had written for her to fill out.
Before leaving, he specifically reminded her not to fill in the form incorrectly, as this was a recommendation she had received with great difficulty from that "executive" relative. Every major can find a suitable job in their company, and graduates can be employed upon graduation and directly reach the peak of their lives.
Fang Zhao was too lazy to refute anything. He didn't even look at it and just stuffed it into his pocket.
An Huainan was already waiting for her under the willow tree.
He is the first in the province. There is no need to look at the scores. Peking University and Tsinghua University called him last night and sincerely invited him to apply for their school in the college entrance examination.
Seeing Fang Zhao coming over, a smile appeared on An Huainan's expressionless face.
She is exceptionally beautiful today.
In fact, they haven't seen each other since they broke up in their sophomore year.
The high school was very strict and female students were not allowed to wear skirts or have long hair, so she basically never saw her wearing a dress.
She tied her shoulder-length hair up into a loose bun at the back of her head, which made her neck look longer and her whole figure look more refined.
As he got closer, An Huainan couldn't help but hold the person in his arms.
He had been thinking about this day for a long time.
The college entrance exam is like a barrier. Only after crossing this barrier can they truly become adults and do what adults should do. Only then can all romantic relationships be exposed and recognized by society and family.
"Hmm." Fang Zhao was a little breathless from being held by An Huainan. "What's wrong?"
"miss you."
An Huainan's warm breath sprayed out and fell on Fang Zhao's hair, making it itchy.
"Cough, cough, cough."
"Teacher Shen."
The head teacher suddenly appeared from behind. Fang Zhao quickly got out of An Huainan's arms and stood aside, like a child who had been caught doing something wrong.
"Now that you've graduated, you have your freedom." Teacher Shen smiled broadly and said, "Congratulations to Huainan for successfully passing the entrance exam to become the top scorer in the liberal arts department of Shanhe Province."
Fang Zhao was not surprised at all, but when he looked at An Huainan again, his eyes were filled with pride.
This feeling is even happier than winning the top spot in the imperial examination.
"Fang Zhao, you did well on the test. I think you can get into a key university."
It seems that all the students in this batch did very well in the exams. Teacher Shen couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.
"The person who surprised me the most was Bao Jing. I thought that with her score, she would be lucky to get into a key university, but she actually broke all the records and performed exceptionally well. From the looks of it, getting into a 211 university won't be a problem."
"211?"
"Yeah, you're surprised too, right?"
Teacher Shen looked at the surprise in Fang Zhao's eyes and smiled. "It's certainly beyond our expectations. But it's also understandable. After all, Bao Jing has been studying very hard lately."
"Teacher Shen, do you have the transcripts of all the students in our class? Can you show them to me?"
"I have printed a lot of copies on the podium in the classroom. You can take a look at one."
After Teacher Shen finished speaking, Fang Zhao ran towards the classroom.
There were not many people in the classroom. A few people were gathered around a few tables, discussing the results of the exam.
Fang Zhao ran straight to the podium, took out a report card, and his heart skipped a beat.
The results are wrong.
She remembered that her score was about ten points higher than the first-tier line, but this time, her score was more than thirty points higher.
There are also a few classmates who I remember failing the exam, but they did quite well this time.
This is different from the promise made by the little river god.
When An Huainan walked into the classroom, he saw Fang Zhao holding the report card with a serious look on his face.
I couldn't help but walk behind her and look down at the report card in her hand.
He was not very clear about other people's achievements, but he was very clear about Wen Bo's achievements.
Wen Bo was studying at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China at the time, and his score was around 650 points. This time, his score has reached 670 points. The person below him is Bao Jing, with a score of 665 points.
He had no impression of Bao Jing, but she was definitely not on the same level as Wen Bo.
The direction of the world began to change.
He looked at Fang Zhao again and his expression became serious.
Holding the report card, the two walked to the stone table in the small garden again.
"I want to ask you something."
Fang Zhao hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to ask for clarification.
"I traveled through time ten years later. Back then, in order to save a drowned child from our class, I was forced to descend to the bottom of the sea. I made a deal with a small river god, and I dragged you into this as well."
"You got me involved?"
Fang Zhao looked at An Huainan with a puzzled look on his face.
"Yes, I bet my soul. I wanted to buy back ten years of time with you. The bet was whether we could be together. Now it seems that we have won. However, on the day we decided to be together, the little river god did not show up."
"And now, the original direction of the characters in this world has also deviated."
"There's only one possibility."
An Huainan paused for a moment, and he suddenly felt a little regretful. When he made this bet, he did not consider the power of the Little River God, and the unpredictable direction of this matter, and he dragged Fang Zhao's soul into it for nothing.
“The world is beginning to collapse.”
Yes, the world began to collapse, but the little river god had limited power and did not sense that there was something wrong with the direction of the dream.
"The most important thing now is how to get in touch with the Little River God."
Fang Zhao forced herself to calm down. The dream could only last ten years. If it couldn't connect with the real world, she and An Huainan would be trapped in this dream ten years from now.
"Don't worry, we still have time."
An Huainan saw Fang Zhao's frown and reached out to gently smooth the lines on her forehead. "Zhao, do you regret this?"
Do you regret it?
Do you regret entering this dream?
If she had not entered this dream, she would still be that carefree urban white-collar worker, waiting for her family to help arrange a blind date when she reached a certain age, so that she could choose a suitable man and live a carefree life.
Fang Zhao's brows relaxed. She had no regrets. At least, An Huainan was still by her side.
In this world, she lived a very lonely life, no matter what happened, she had to bear it all by herself. Now, at least she is no longer alone.
"I have no regrets."
Fang Zhao said these four words firmly.
An Huainan could no longer hold back. He held the back of Fang Zhao's head and pressed his warm lips against his.
It was their first kiss, but An Huainan performed much better than Fang Zhao. Fang Zhao even forgot how to breathe, just holding his breath as An Huainan pried open his lips and thrust into his mouth with a domineering and affectionate touch.
After a long while, he only heard An Huainan chuckle in his ear, "Don't hold your breath."
Fang Zhao's face was red from the kiss, and his warmth and breath were still on his lips. She looked at his face so close to her and couldn't help but kiss him again.
