Thoughts

On Saturday evening, when Shen Duanrui and Mu Dongchen arrived at the hot pot restaurant, Mu Mu and Li Ming were already there, and they were talking with their heads together, Li Ming's face was full of smiles.

"What are you talking about, so happy?" Shen Duanrui walked over, sat down beside Mu Mu, and handed the paper bag in his hand to Li Ming.

Mu Dongchen followed Shen Duanrui and sat down on one side.

"Long time no see, Mu Dongchen." After Li Ming greeted Mu Dongchen, he took the thing Shen Duanrui handed over and opened it, "This is it?"

"Gift, there's also aestivation here."

"Gift?" Li Ming looked at him jokingly, "What should I do, Duanduan, I think I like you, do you think it's too late for me to change my mind?"

"Don't," Shen Duanrui glanced at Mu Mu beside him, "I don't want to be abused by your family, and finally there was an article in the newspaper that 'a man surnamed Shen was abused to death by the woman's boyfriend because he gave a gift to a married woman' News, let me say PS again, 'the three were once friends'."

Li Ming laughed, "My family is not so violent."

Mu Mu raised his eyebrows at Shen Duanrui, Shen Duanrui pretended not to see, and poured water for himself, taking Mu Dongchen's share with him.

"Has Xia Mian arrived yet?" Mu Dongchen thanked Shen Duanrui and asked.

"She said there are still a few minutes, let's light it first." Li Ming turned around and called the waiter, "Look at what you want to eat."

Just as they ordered the dishes, Xia Mian walked in quickly from outside, "Sorry, sorry, I'm late."

"Just right." Li Ming asked her to sit down next to him, and gave her the menu he had just prepared for the waiter, "Look at what you want to eat, we've ordered it."

Xia Mian browsed, selected a few dishes, and handed them to the waiter.Put the bag away, thank Shen Duanrui for the gift, and then saw Mu Dongchen on his left, "Long time no see, Mu Dongchen."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Although the four of Shen Duanrui haven't seen each other for a while, they usually communicate with each other, so they are not unfamiliar.Mu Dongchen hadn't attended a high school reunion since he entered college, so he was a bit out of touch at first, but with the activeness of Li Ming and Shen Duanrui, he gradually got involved.

The two girls and the three boys were not in the same class in high school. Li Ming and Xia Mian were students in the first class of liberal arts, and Shen Duanrui was in the second class of liberal arts. Five people can form a study group and become friends. Fu.In order to better train students, the school has formed a special class for each of the top [-] students in arts and sciences, and gathered in a classroom for tutoring during evening self-study.Because Li Ming and Mu Mu are both the secretary of the class party branch, they usually have a good friendship, and Li Ming and Xia Mian are good friends, and Shen Duanrui, Mu Dongchen and Mu Mu usually play together, so the five of them formed a small group.Although they are not in the same class, the relationship between the five is very good because of the study group.

"Actually... I've always thought our group's name is Secondary School, haha." Li Ming stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth, but couldn't help sticking out his tongue because it was too hot. Mu Mu hurriedly handed the cold drink to him. She, she took a few sips and felt relieved before putting down the glass.

"Hahaha. Shen Duanrui patted Mu Mu's shoulder, "Mu Mu, I didn't say that, it was your family who said it. " Then he smiled at Li Ming, "That's right! "

Mu Mu gave him a blank look, "This was discussed by everyone. Why didn't you mention the Second Secondary School? And if I remember correctly, you were the one who proposed the name at the time."

"Isn't that when I was young and didn't understand it?" Shen Duanrui took a spoonful of quail eggs from the pot and asked Xia Mian if they wanted any. After dividing, they asked Mu Dongchen how many were left, and poured them into his bowl.Mu Dongchen glanced at him, thanked him, then lowered his head and ate the squid silk.

After forming the group, Shen Duanrui said that it would be more meaningful to think of a group name, so several people thought hard.

"Hmm..." Shen Duanrui thought for a while, "Nirvana rebirth, breaking out of a cocoon and becoming a butterfly?"

"The phoenix is ​​reborn after ashes, and the caterpillar becomes a butterfly after breaking out of its cocoon. It is quite similar to the fact that we have to pass the college entrance examination before we can enter a new beginning." Li Ming said.

"Then what name should we choose?" Xia Mian asked.

"Metamorphosis that conforms to this meaning? Rebirth?" Mu Dongchen denied it before others could dislike him just after he finished speaking, "It doesn't fit, it's too vulgar."

Several names were mentioned, but they were all rejected, and the naming was in trouble.

"Does it have to be named? Can't we just call it a mutual aid group?" Xia Mian asked while lying on the table.

"I think choosing an appropriate name will have more purpose and motivation." Shen Duanrui said.

Mu Mu, who had been writing and drawing on paper, put down his pen, "Fire Feather Butterfly, how is it?" Looking up at them, "The phoenix is ​​reborn from the ashes, and the caterpillar becomes a butterfly."

Although it sounds a bit non-mainstream, but since I really can't think of other better names, and I don't want to waste more time on this issue, that would put the cart before the horse, so the name of the five-person group was decided like this.

"So, in the final analysis, it should be your fault." Xia Mian said with a smile.

"Who told you to say something about rebirth from Nirvana, breaking out of a cocoon and becoming a butterfly." Mu Dongchen interjected, "Misleading everyone."

Mu Mu and Li Ming nodded at the side.

Seeing the four of them standing on the united front, Shen Duanrui ate a piece of meat unwillingly, "Anyway, it was the wood that got it in the end, not me."

The topic of the name was quickly overshadowed by other topics. Memories from high school, all kinds of interesting things in college and various plans for the future.

"I remember one time when I was about to be late, Duan Duan came in through the window." Speaking of the past, Mu Dongchen recalled that one afternoon, everyone arrived, only Shen Duanrui, who was sitting in front of him, never arrived .Seeing that the bell was about to ring, I saw Shen Duanrui running towards the classroom on the walkway outside the window. Before he had time to go around the corridor, he opened the window and jumped in, then sat on the seat and panted.Mu Dongchen asked him what was going on, he took a sip of water and said he overslept.

"Ah! I remember this incident." Li Ming said, "At that time, I was planning to go to the office to ask the teacher if he wanted to hand in the English newspaper. When I passed by your class, I happened to see Duan Duan turned in. I was shocked at the time, but it was okay. No security guards saw it, otherwise Duanduan would have educated you."

Shen Duanrui smiled embarrassingly, "Occasionally, I made a mistake occasionally. I overslept because I was too sleepy that day. But after that time, I found it troublesome to go around the corridor to enter the classroom. It's faster to turn through the window." .Why can't the school open a door near the walkway?"

"That's just the welfare of the first floor." Mu Mu looked at him with the eyes of an idiot, "It's a good thing you weren't caught. If it gets to the parents, it depends on how you explain to your aunt."

Shen Duanrui didn't take it seriously, and Mu Mu knew to scare him with his mother. Now he is no longer the person who is afraid of his mother.It's been a few years since I went to college, but I've made progress anyway.

After talking with Xia Mian for a while, Li Ming turned his attention to Mu Dongchen, "Dongchen, I haven't seen you at the party for the past three years, how are you doing over there? Do you have a girlfriend or something?" The tone of a sentence was obviously aggravated, and after he finished speaking, he looked at him gossipingly.

"The main reason is that I didn't have enough time to attend the party. As for the girlfriend," Shen Duanrui smiled shyly when he saw Mu Dongchen, "I'm lucky."

Unable to explain what it was like in his heart, Shen Duanrui stuffed a large piece of vegetable leaves dyed red by chili peppers into his mouth, and the spiciness rushed into his mouth instantly, and he quickly took several sips of his drink.The few of them didn't order wine, but just ordered a few bottles of drinks. One was because there were two girls, and the other was that they didn't really have much desire to drink. After all, it was a rare gathering of friends.

Hearing what Mu Dongchen said, Li Ming's gossip factor was brought up, and he was asked several questions, and Mu Dongchen answered them patiently.

"So, have you considered marrying her? Wow!" Li Ming was a little surprised.

Mu Dongchen nodded.

"If you want, we can also get married after graduation." Mu Mu looked at the envious look in Li Ming's eyes, and said seriously.

Although he felt very uncomfortable, Shen Duanrui made himself ignore as much as possible, and tried not to think about those things that made him uncomfortable, and he yelled at Li Ming and Mu Mu with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Li Ming blushed.

Although Li Ming didn't say anything, Shen Duanrui felt that she and Mu Mu would definitely make it to the end.

After eating a meal, talking and laughing, it was almost nine o'clock.

"We'll get together often in the future."

Mu Mu and Li Ming were naturally together, and Xia Mian was picked up by her boyfriend.Only then did Shen Duanrui really see what that Bai Yansheng looked like, and I have to say that Xia Mian has a good eye.That person seemed gentle and polite at first sight, so he probably treated Aestivation well.

Shen Duanrui and Mu Dongchen were the only ones left in the group. Since they were eating too much, Shen Duanrui suggested walking, and Mu Dongchen agreed.

At night, without the scorching sun during the day, the temperature drops a little bit, and the cool wind blows away, taking away the heat caused by eating hot pot.Although the moon was short in the sky, it was very bright, and occasionally there was a small sound of insects around.Because it was Saturday, the pace of the pedestrians around me did not have the rush of going to work, but became leisurely, which made people can't help but relax along with them.The two walked slowly along the road, chatting a few words from time to time, saying a few words when they saw the familiar scenery before, recalling what happened at that time.Gradually, Shen Duanrui felt that it was good for him to be able to talk and get along with Mu Dongchen like this now. Those things that made people not happy enough to think or not seemed to have drifted away with the wind, leaving only the innocent him and the innocent The old Mu Dongchen simply walked and chatted.
