After a moment of silence, Tao Ling turned off his phone.

Autumn is not over yet, but life has been disrupted.

Before going to bed, Tao Ling thought dejectedly. He lay on his back and raised his left hand to look at the ring on his middle finger. He remembered that Tao Jun said that pursuing peace of mind is brave because we are reconciled with life, but blindly pursuing the pursuit of life Calmness is sometimes a sign of cowardice.

This is too biased, Tao Ling thought, Tao Jun is a very biased person.

People are too far away from immortality, and life on the ground is so hard, so we must have motivation. Some motivation may come from desire. When desire is satisfied, it will inevitably be boring, but if desire is not satisfied, it is the beginning of pain.

Life is about making choices, you always have to choose between pain and boredom.

Before meeting Wen Qingying, Tao Ling felt that he had no desires, so life was boring. Boring was close to peace. He needed peace. He was willing to be a person without desires.

Because as Tao Jun said, he is a coward.

In such a silent night, Tao Ling turned his life over and over again, endured the embarrassment and even shame, shook out all the shameful thoughts, and finally discovered an unavoidable fact -

He fell in love with Wen Qingying.

Maybe it was cholera.

It's really unlucky, he's a coward, but he got sick. And it was too fast to react.

At noon the next day, Tao Ling met Xia Chaoyang at the square in the city center. The first thing they said when they met, Xia Chaoyang asked: "Did you not sleep well last night?"

Tao Ling didn't know how to answer, so he just curled his lips perfunctorily. Xia Chaoyang didn't care and treated him like a child, smiling tolerantly.

This gesture made Tao Ling a little unhappy.

After asking his opinion, Xia Chaoyang found a Japanese food store. As soon as the two sat down facing each other, Xia Chaoyang handed over a bag.

"Thank you, Teacher Xia, I didn't bring anything." Tao Ling said.

Xia Chaoyang still smiled: "It doesn't matter, I brought you along by the way. I don't know if you like it or not."

Tao Ling took the things and said, "Thank you. I'll treat Teacher Xia to dinner."

Neither of them had anything to say, because the topic they really wanted to say was a taboo topic.

Perhaps because he was not sure about Tao Ling's thoughts, Xia Chaoyang was conservative, so he only talked about topics related to the academic circle. However, Tao Ling had never been interested in the academic circle and would answer every question he asked.

Polite and distant.

At the end of the chat, Xia Chaoyang said: "Junior brother Tao, have you ever thought about going to other universities? S University is similar to your school. The Institute of Religion and the Chinese Department are now recruiting talents, not administrative positions. It must have been no problem in the past. You also have a single paper. , revise the doctoral thesis and publish it as a book, and the academic results will be excellent."

Originally, he wanted to refuse directly, but when he thought about what happened during this period, Tao Ling hesitated again, and he just responded, "I haven't thought about it for the time being."

Xia Chaoyang asked sincerely, "Do you not want to leave Wushi?"

Tao Ling nodded, lowered his eyes, his eyes accidentally fell on his hand, and found that the wedding ring he saw earlier was gone.

Finally he said: "Mr. Tao is here."

Without the expected gaffe, Xia Chaoyang just smiled faintly when he heard the name and said, "Yes, you two brothers have a good relationship. He has said before that he will do anything for you."

After a long pause, Tao Ling responded: "Oh."

After the meal was tasteless, Xia Zhaoyang said that there was something else to do when he left the store, so the two said goodbye in the downtown square.

Tao Ling took advantage of the opportunity to go to the bookstore. He planned to take a stroll back, but ended up carrying too many things, so he had to take the community bus.

There were only three stops to go home, and he had to pass the west gate of the school. Tao Ling got on the bus and stood facing the window on the right.

At the last stop, the flower shop could already be seen in the distance. Tao Ling squeezed the handle of the bag tightly, watching Wen Qingying's back at the door getting closer.

Just like when we first met, he was adjusting the position of the bouquet in front of the flower stand.

Until the back figure was about to disappear from sight, Tao Ling still couldn't let go of his heart. At the last moment, Wen Qing's image suddenly sensed something, and turned to look at the bus.
