Chapter 28 Radio Station "Isn't it said that college is the best place to fall in love? ...
September 5, 2018, sunny
Life is short, maybe it is just enough to like you.
——Excerpt from Tao Shuran’s Diary
*
Inside the radio station, Liang Yuanjing turned off the button, picked up the phone on the table, and turned around to leave.
"Really not giving me WeChat?"
"Just making friends." Wang Shiyu crossed her arms and looked at him. "Besides, I'm your senior sister, right?"
Wang Shiyu is a junior this year and also a graduate of Linchuan High School.
Her and Liang Yuanjing's chance encounter came a year ago when she returned to her alma mater to give a speech to outstanding graduates. It rained heavily that day and the audience was in an uproar.
Naturally, she focused her attention on the person who caused the commotion - Liang Yuanjing.
“Be passionate, be enthusiastic, and never give up.”
Wang Shiyu raised the corner of her lips. "I've remembered what you said for two years. I heard you used to work at the Affiliated High School Radio Station. Are you interested in joining us?"
It originally existed.
But now, Liang Yuanjing glanced at him coldly, his attitude a little cold.
"Let's talk about it later."

Following the broadcast instructions, Tao Shuran and Fang Qingyi successfully found Chongming Building.
After entering, there were senior students waiting to greet them. Tao Shuran put his luggage at the door and asked Fang Qingyi to take care of it. He went into the lobby to register and sign, and then received the number plate for the corresponding dormitory.
The dormitories at Qingda University are allocated in advance according to classes.
Unfortunately, Tao Shuran was kicked out and had to live in a dormitory with students from other majors.
The dormitory of Qingda University was just renovated last year. It is a four-person room with a bed and a desk underneath, and an independent bathroom. The conditions are pretty good.
Before leaving, Tao Shuran glanced at her roommates: one was from the School of Finance and Accounting, two were studying Chinese, and she was the only one studying cultural relic restoration.
When she entered the dormitory, most people were already there. As soon as she pushed open the door, everyone's eyes were on her. Tao Shuran felt a little embarrassed and stood there awkwardly.
Unexpectedly, Fang Qingyi was more comfortable than her.
"Hello everyone, I'm from the Teachers College next door. My name is Fang Qingyi, her name is Tao Shuran, and I'm here to accompany her."
This sentence opened the conversation, and the remaining roommates also introduced themselves.
"Hello, my name is Lin Shuang, and I major in accounting."
"My name is Tan Yueyi, and I'm also majoring in accounting."
Tan Yueyi is obviously more socially anxious than Tao Shuran. After saying a word, she almost wants to bury her head in the closet. Compared with her shyness, Lin Shuang is obviously more like a big sister.
"Luo Jingya is from the Chinese Department. She went downstairs to look at the club recruitment and just left."
Tao Shuran nodded and silently memorized everyone's name.
Her bed was on the right side near the balcony. While Tao Shuran was sorting out the four-piece suit she brought with her, she listened to Fang Qingyi and her two accounting-major roommates getting closer.
"Are your School of Finance and Accounting and Economics together?"
Lin Shuang thought for a moment and said, "Let's not put them together. We are the School of Accounting. Economics and finance are together, so it's called the School of Financial Economics."
"However, some public basic courses should be combined together."
Fang Qingyi immediately came over, looked at Tao Shuran with a very righteous look and said, "Of course, I want to come and accompany you to class."
Tao Shuran shook his head repeatedly: "You are too crazy."
"Sisters, are you participating in the club battle downstairs? I just took a look around and it was so lively."
Luo Qiuya pushed the door open, put a large stack of flyers in her arms on the table, and began to distribute them one by one.
Looking at her, Tao Shuran whispered, "Hello, my name is Tao Shuran."
Luo Qiuya smiled and said, "Have you decided which club to join?"
Tao Shuran blurted out: "Basketball Club and Photography Club."
"Wow, you've already made up your mind before you even looked at the flyer." Luo Qiuya sighed. "There are so many handsome guys in the basketball club. Are you attracted to any of the seniors?"
"No." Tao Shuran quickly retorted, "I just simply like playing basketball."
This reason obviously lacked strength at the end.
Fang Qingyi was trying to hold back her laughter, but in the end, she couldn't help herself and whispered teasingly into her ear, "Ranran, why didn't I remember you liking basketball?"
"But I seem to remember...someone really likes playing basketball, and you like watching him play basketball?"
…
At the Qingda basketball court, an extraordinary freshman basketball game is underway.
Liang Yuanjing and his fellow flight class members reported a week in advance. After taking the college entrance examination, ten of them were admitted to the Air Force Aviation University.
The junior flight class adopts the "3+1" joint military-civilian training model. After studying at Fuqing University for three years, students will transfer to the Air Force Aviation University for one year of militarized closed training, and finally obtain dual student status in the two schools.
The boys got to know each other very quickly. Someone brought a basketball from afar, dropped by in the dormitory corridor, and asked, "Do you want to play basketball?", and they spontaneously formed two teams.
"Today is the day for freshman registration, right? There are so many people on the road."
Xu Yanyang and Liang Yuanjing were assigned to the same dormitory. Before the basketball game started, he squatted down to put on his knee pads and glanced at them casually.
"Is that Tao Shuran?"
The girls' dormitory is in Building 6, not far from the playground. Xu Yanyang has sharp eyes and can spot it accurately in the crowd at a glance.
He smiled, his gaze fixed on the glowing white girl for a moment, and sighed, "Why didn't I realize she was so beautiful in high school?"
Liang Yuanjing leaned lazily on the railing. When he heard this, he raised his eyelids and looked over indifferently.
She was indeed prettier than when she was in high school. She took off her monotonous and heavy school uniform jacket, and the blue plaid long skirt made her look elegant and refined, like a snow lotus budding in the water.
"Didn't you have a girlfriend during the summer vacation?"
Speaking of this, Xu Yanyang sighed melancholy, "Long-distance relationships are boring. I want to break up."
"What do you think about me pursuing Tao Shuran? After all, we both graduated from the Affiliated High School."
Liang Yuanjing hit the nail on the head: "So, even though you haven't broken up yet, you're already thinking about your next partner?"
Xu Yanyang assured with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely separate them before I catch up."
Liang Yuanjing looked at him: "Are you so casual about falling in love?"
"If you're not casual about your relationship, do you have to wait until you get married to be casual?" Xu Yanyang touched his nose. For some reason, he always felt that Liang Yuanjing's look at him was not kind.
But he seemed to be so cold and distant to everyone.
After all, he is the young master, so it is normal for him to have a bit of a bad temper.
Xu Yanyang took the initiative to invite: "Ajing, will you team up with me later? Let's kill the enemy together without leaving a single piece of armor."
"Not interested."
Liang Yuanjing didn't refuse him and walked past him slowly, saying in a cold tone, "You and I are not the same kind of people."

I finished cleaning up the dormitory during the day, and in the evening I received a notice from the school saying that we had to hold a short class meeting in our respective classes.
Tao Shuran went to class alone.
This year, Qing University's cultural relics restoration major recruited more than ten people, and less than half of the seats in a class were filled.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the teacher in charge of their major slowly walked in.
Seeing the familiar person, Tao Shuran widened his eyes in shock.
"Hello everyone, my name is Lin Tingzhou, and I'm your acting counselor for this Cultural Relics Class."
Lin Tingzhou, who is over 60 years old, is in very good health. He turned around and wrote his name on the blackboard in a casual manner. His elegant handwriting showed his noble character.
She jokingly said, "Why substitute? Because your official counselor, who is also my student, accidentally sprained her leg the day before school started. I, as the teacher, had no choice but to fill in for her."
There was a burst of laughter from the audience.
"But you'll see me later in the calligraphy and painting restoration courses," Lin Tingzhou said with a smile. "Cultural relic restoration is a huge undertaking, and life is short. Perhaps this is all we can do."
"So, everyone here, are you ready to do this?"
In order to better understand the restoration of cultural relics, Tao Shuran spent most of her time in museums and libraries during the holidays reading materials. In her spare time, she even watched the film "I Repair Cultural Relics in the Forbidden City" three times.
Sitting here today, she was even more convinced that she liked this.
Her life needs a dream that she pursues persistently.
Lin Tingzhou was obviously a decisive person. After introducing herself, she skipped a lot of steps. Because the class was small, she even skipped most of the class leadership positions and only kept a squad leader and a deputy squad leader to maintain order in the military training.
When we heard the news of military training, even if we were mentally prepared, we still couldn't help but complain.
After the class meeting, Tao Shuran packed up his things and walked out slowly.
But at the corner of the corridor, she met Lin Tingzhou waiting for her.
“I was very happy when I saw you on the admission list.”
Tao Shuran said, "I also want to thank you for taking me to see the entire restoration process by those craftsmen."
"But I didn't expect that you would be our teacher."
Lin Tingzhou feigned surprise: "Oh, didn't our Ajing tell you this secret?"
Tao Shuran shook his head with regret: "He and I haven't been in touch for a long time."
"This brat mentioned you to me several times during the summer vacation. He said you were born to do this job. I asked him how he could tell that since he had never worked in this field before."
When it comes to Liang Yuanjing, Lin Tingzhou has endless things to say.
Her face was full of traces of time, but as she grew older she was bathed in a calm and elegant demeanor, and even her voice was particularly pleasant.
"He said you have a pair of calm and clear eyes, and you can calm down and do things."
On the way back, Tao Shuran kept quietly savoring these words in his heart.
The moonlight was like water, illuminating the bluestone path with a glow. She was so focused on walking that she didn't notice someone coming up ahead.
Liang Yuanjing stood lazily in front of her with his arms folded.
Seeing that the girl was about to bump into him, he put two fingers on her forehead and said jokingly, "Have you evolved? You can walk without looking up?"
Tao Shuran was startled by the sudden sound and took a step back.
She raised her head hastily and met his face unexpectedly.
His voice was deeper than the one heard on the daytime radio station, but it had a more emotional authenticity.
It was as if this person appeared clearly in front of her, rather than a beautiful dream of a young girl late at night.
"Liang Yuanjing." She couldn't help but call him.
"Yeah." He replied softly, then suddenly glanced around and asked with an ambiguous tone, "What are you doing downstairs in the boys' dormitory?"
"I……"
Just as she was about to explain, Liang Yuanjing suddenly pressed his fingers on her lips. He glanced behind her and without thinking, pulled her into the corner of the flower bed next to her.
There was a blind spot in the field of vision without light, and only the little cicadas were left chirping softly in the clumps of grass.
Just like Tao Shuran's beating heart.
Her breathing gradually became heavier, her lips began to feel numb, and she couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Liang Yuanjing felt a faint breath wrapped around his fingertips. He was stunned for a second, then immediately withdrew his hand and took a step back, keeping a safe distance from her.
Across from the flower bed, several girls were waiting downstairs.
They gathered together and talked and laughed loudly, and Tao Shuran could vaguely hear them talking about pursuing someone and asking for contact information.
Later, Liang Yuanjing's roommate came down and told them sternly that Liang Yuanjing had gone out and was not there, and asked them not to stay downstairs.
It turns out that he was avoiding peach blossoms.
Tao Shuran's eyelashes trembled, and she asked him softly, "Are you still troubled by being pursued?"
Liang Yuanjing shook his head repeatedly: "The trouble is very great."
Unfriendly pursuit means the invasion and disturbance of private space. Liang Yuanjing has experienced too much such behavior of being chased downstairs or even at home since he was a child. Even though he is used to it, he hates it from the bottom of his heart.
Tao Shuran asked him tentatively: "Isn't it said that college is the best time to fall in love? Haven't you considered it?"
"No."
Liang Yuanjing answered without hesitation. When he lowered his head and saw the girl's dim eyes, he paused and looked thoughtfully at the brightly lit men's dormitory.
Suddenly asked: "What about you, Tao Shuran, do you still like that person?"
