Section 6, Dan Zhen and Zhang Xin

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

How can Rong Fei be compared to Lu Ying Shou? In terms of both appearance and demeanor, he falls far short. Zhao Ai Hua stood up, saying, "Your decision to break up with him is exceptionally wise, even wiser than that of a brilliant leader. Let's get ready for dinner."

She was aware of her uncle's hardships, which made her mother’s caution resonate with her. She devised a plan and "seduced" her roommate Zhao Aihua to visit Rong Fei's home. Compared to her own family, Rong Fei's economic conditions were indeed very poor; the entire family squeezed into a room of just over ten square meters, with the kitchen far from the bedroom, and there was not a single valuable item worth mentioning in the house, making it almost a case of bare walls. Although families like his were common in Beiyang, and her uncle might not be better off than his family, the actual situation completely dispelled her thoughts of continuing the relationship with him. She was unaware that the era she lived in was one of a transition from spirit to material, and soon, material would utterly triumph over spirit. Zhang Xin's rejection of Rong Fei, with a slight sense of guilt, would undoubtedly represent the beauty of the soul thirty years later.

Recently, Rong Fei sustained an injury

Ah, Lu Yingshou is waiting for me. We were discussing an interesting topic. Zhang Xin flicked her still-damp hair and returned to her dormitory

On that occasion when we went to Rong Fei's house, Zhao Aihua was also dragged along. Therefore, she can be considered a witness. Seeing that Zhang Xin was somewhat annoyed, Zhao Aihua refrained from discussing the topic further

Dan Zhen is an ordinary-looking girl. Apart from excelling in her studies, she believes she has few other merits. Therefore, she has never been involved in romantic relationships and feels a sense of aversion towards the increasing signs of love that have emerged in reality. It is truly foolish to not use the precious time for studying and to not equip one's mind with knowledge

Well then, there will be no worries about winning a long-distance running medal at the next sports meeting

To know that Teacher Gong at m.hetushu.com has the strictest requirements! Shan Zhen felt puzzled and somewhat wronged. She is the class's study committee member and works diligently in her studies, yet she only scored 85 on this subject's test

"You care about him a lot, don't you?" Li Jianguang has been looking for opportunities to get close to Dan Zhen, his tone clearly tinged with jealousy

"Li Jianguang, I haven't seen Rong Fei playing basketball lately. Why is that?" asked Shan Zhen

Dan Zhen believed that Rong Fei would definitely fly into a rage—he had always done so in the past. However, this time, Rong Fei remained smiling, his eyes never leaving the book.

"Do not speak carelessly. My reputation has nearly been ruined by you. The reunion with Rong Fei was merely a gathering of old classmates, but thanks to your publicity, the entire women's dormitory is now aware of it," Zhang Xin said with dissatisfaction.

Zhang Xin has a slender figure, with fair and delicate skin, and a sweet appearance, earning her the title of an 80-level queen. Of course, this title is only circulated privately among boys

Is there something wrong

Lu Yingshou is a very charming young man, and Zhang Xin holds this opinion. They have known each other for some time, their connection originating from a tape recorder. Zhang Xin loves pop songs, especially Taiwanese campus songs. Upon hearing that a classmate from the Mechanical Engineering Class 01 had the latest tapes, she asked someone to inquire, hoping to borrow them to record the lyrics and melodies. This is how she met Lu Yingshou. Subsequently, Lu became a frequent visitor to Zhang Xin's dormitory. He is from Beiyang and is a fellow townsman of Rong Fei, although they did not attend the same high school. Lu Yingshou is well-read and can amuse the girls of 313 with many interesting stories. What Lu cares about most is Zhang Xin; he is captivated by her beauty, both in figure and appearance, making her one of the top choices in the 80th cohort and even in the entire college. In his time, there was no concept of selecting class beauties, department beauties, or campus beauties. If he had understood this, he would have initiated an election, along with *Tu* *Shu*, to elevate Zhang Xin to the position of campus beauty, at least securing her the title of department beauty. He had long noticed Zhang Xin, seeing her always following a boy, who was his classmate from the same department, and he would often see him in large classes (English, Philosophy, etc.). This made Lu feel uncomfortable. Finally, their relationship came to an end, and Zhang Xin approached him under the pretext of listening to music. He believed he could take over the role of that boy named Rong Fei.

This matter made Shan Zhen regard Rong Fei with newfound respect. She wanted to find an opportunity to talk with Rong Fei, but he left right after class, disappearing somewhere. Previously, he always played volleyball with Li Jianguang and his group. The Third Women's Volleyball World Cup, held in Japan, has already commenced, and the enthusiasm for volleyball at the school has immediately surged.

However, in reality, Zhang Xin always has a thorn in her heart, and that thorn is Rong Fei

Not necessarily. Sometimes one may find it even harder to see oneself clearly

She has been paying close attention to Rong Fei's behavior over the past few days. Like Li Jianguang and others, Shan Zhen feels that the boy behind her has undergone significant changes, particularly in his demeanor. She interprets this as a result of Rong Fei's injury. For instance, Wang Jianxiong, the class committee secretary who is known for giving people nicknames and speaking in a sharp and sarcastic manner, has been making remarks about Rong Fei's nose, as it has a slight nasal quality since his injury

The more we talk, the worse it sounds. We are old classmates, from the same class in high school, do you understand? When did I talk about that with him? How can you use the term 'dump'?

She returned to the dormitory building in a gloomy mood. As she passed by Room 313, where Zhang Xin lived, the cheerful laughter of Lu Yingshou came from the half-open door. Lu was a frequent visitor to the girls' dormitory and had recently been very close to Zhang Xin.

After the computer quiz, class 02's study committee member, Shan Zhen, believed that Gong Hanxiang would not let Rong Fei off easily. She pondered how to advocate for Rong Fei. Rong Fei's seat was right behind her; he was an unoffensive boy, albeit somewhat shy and timid. Compared to those boys who, in their budding romantic feelings, tried every means to please girls, Rong Fei was not unpleasant. After facing setbacks with Zhang Xin, Rong Fei generally did not take the initiative to speak to girls, and his temperament became more taciturn. Shan Zhen and Zhang Xin's dormitory was separated by just a wall, and she considered herself a witness to the story between Rong Fei and Zhang Xin. Shan Zhen knew that Rong Fei, who was not outstanding in various aspects, would not catch Zhang Xin's eye, as the self-assuredly beautiful Zhang Xin might have higher aspirations.

"Giggling, why? Isn't he fine? This morning, he ran like he had just drunk chicken blood."

I feel that he is different from before. I wonder if you have this feeling as well

Rong Fei lingered in Zhang Xin's mind, and during dinner, she couldn't help but ponder their story. Zhang Xin admitted that Rong Fei was not unpleasant; on the contrary, he was very easygoing and understanding. His shyness occasionally revealed his admiration for her. The main issue lay with his family, as that incident was a significant assessment for him, given that her family had learned of Rong Fei's existence. Her mother, who worked at the municipal education bureau, told her, "You are in college now, which is different from high school. I do not oppose you interacting with boys; however, you must maintain self-respect and understand the other person."

Her mother, who worked at the municipal education bureau, told her, "You are in college now, which is different from high school. I do not oppose you interacting with boys; however, you must maintain self-respect and understand the other person. Since he is your college classmate, there should be no issue with his education, but what about his family? You are still a child and do not understand the importance of family. Without a good family, how can one talk about happiness?" Then her mother cited her uncle as an example, as her aunt's family was from the countryside and bore a heavy economic burden. "You are still a child and do not understand the importance of family. Without a good family, how can one talk about happiness?" Then her mother cited her uncle as an example, as her aunt's family was from the countryside and bore a heavy economic burden. A large portion of her aunt's salary was needed to support her parents and younger siblings.

Who would have thought that two days later, when she collected her report card, Gong Hanxiang had marked a score of 75 on Rong Fei's blank paper. This left her extremely astonished, convinced that Teacher Gong had made a mistake.

"This kid has taken a liking to you," Zhao Aihua said with a grin to Zhang Xin. She was on the upper bunk, while Zhao Aihua's bunk was below, and now Zhang Xin was lying on Zhao Aihua's bed.

So what do you want to ask? It's better to ask him directly about his matters; his understanding of himself is definitely deeper than my understanding of him, isn't it

In the second year of university, discussions about love began. The arduous years of high school study had finally come to an end, and the youth in their prime needed to relax. The reality of the present was so beautiful; the ascetic life of the Cultural Revolution had been completely repudiated. The country's policies were becoming increasingly open, and novels from Hong Kong and Taiwan began to circulate on campus. Newly opened video halls on the streets also screened films from Hong Kong and Taiwan, though the ticket prices were astonishingly high

Shouldn't you take a look at him? After all, you are old classmates

"There is no mistake. Rong Fei has a nasal fracture and may have a mild concussion. His actual level is not this," Gong Hanxiang stated with certainty.

I heard about it, I heard it from Cao Junbin. What happened

I won't talk to you anymore. Next time, I will definitely change the class monitor, including the secretary. Shan Zhen stood up and left the classroom with a book in hand

She paused, thought for a moment, and then gently pushed the door open, "Zhang Xin, come out for a moment." After seeing that Zhang Xin's close friend Zhao Aihua was also in the room, this action was not considered impolite.

On that day, Lu Yingshou brought Zhang Xin a copy of Qiong Yao's novel "I Am a Cloud". The book was undoubtedly a pirated edition, lacking a cover, filled with typos, and incomplete, containing only the first part. Lu Yingshou felt that the style of the novel was indeed suited to girls with a somewhat petit bourgeois sensibility. The term "petit bourgeois sensibility" is borrowed, as Lu Yingshou was not part of the petit bourgeoisie of 1930s Shanghai. They began a lively discussion about Qiong Yao, and Zhao Aihua, a girl from dormitory 313, had read one of Qiong Yao's novellas and praised it highly. This opened up the topic, bringing much joy to the three present, including He and Tushu. Lu Yingshou hoped Zhao Aihua would leave, but Zhao was very excited in her discussion, expressing a deep yearning for the fairy-tale life of the male and female protagonists in Qiong Yao's works, living in wealth and for love, disregarding everything else.

Old Five often frequents the library. He has changed his exercise routine, now focusing on long-distance running in the mornings, covering at least 3,000 meters each day

Girls, like boys, are stirred by the restlessness of youth in their hearts

Hehe, you are concerned about our fifth one

No. We haven't seen each other for a long time, and I have no relationship with him anymore. Are you looking for him? He is quite straightforward. Zhang Xin wanted to leave

"Just joking." Wang Jianxiong felt somewhat intimidated by the tall and strong Li Jianguang

Morning exercise is mandatory, usually consisting of a lap around the teaching building, approximately 1,500 meters. The homeroom teacher, Zheng Xiaoying, takes attendance daily, and students who do not participate in the exercise will have money deducted, five jiao each time.

Well, come with me

I do not want to find him. Shan Zhen was somewhat annoyed. Zhang Xin was more open than her, often speaking directly when discussing love, even when the topic was somewhat subtle.

"It doesn't matter. Hamich's nose was cut off; I am merely injured. Jianxiong, respecting others is respecting oneself," Rongfei said with a smile.

Caring for classmates is not a mistake

"Wang Jianxiong, don't bully others. Do you have any compassion?" Li Jianguang, Rong Fei's deskmate, stood up. Usually, Li Jianguang acted as Rong Fei's leader.

"Rong Fei seems to dislike running; he was penalized by Teacher Zheng many times before," said Shan Zhen

Have you heard Liu Lanfang's "The Legend of Yue Fei"? How about we call you Hami Chi from now on

Finally, Zhang Xin returned after being called away by Shan Zhen. It is unclear what that meddlesome Shan Zhen said to Zhang Xin, but Zhang Xin actually claimed to be feeling unwell. Reluctantly, Lu Yingshou could only take his leave.
