As the college entrance exam approached, Xue Feiyang was somewhat troubled.
In recent days, a music producer he had met once kept pestering him to help find Li Chencan from Rongcheng No.1 High School. They particularly liked the songs "Deskmate of Mine" and "Brother Sleeping Above Me," and hoped to discuss with Li Chencan the possibility of buying his songs, or even signing him up.
After all, these two songs were now being widely shared online, and everyone was amazed, feeling melancholic about the past reflected in the songs.
The music producer, who had only met him once, came over pretending to be familiar and actually asking him for a favor.
However, Xue Feiyang didn't feel right about it, as Li Chencan was about to take the college entrance exam, and he didn't want to affect him.
So he temporarily put the matter on hold, but the other side kept urging him, which was very annoying.
In 2013, the college entrance exam of the tenth year of Chongding had already begun!
For the vast majority of students taking the exam, the two days of the college entrance exam were filled with a very complex mix of emotions.
They were about to face a decisive battle that would determine their fate, yet it was also a test of their twelve years of student life. Those who succeeded would be reborn, while those who failed would fall into hell. Of course, the college entrance exam in this life wasn't that terrifying, but it was still very important for the candidates and their families. Therefore, the exam was tense and filled with anxiety.
The college entrance exam was also sad... After the exam, the classmates who had spent three years together were about to go their separate ways, scattering to the winds. The past would be blown away by the June breeze, scattered in every corner of this humid and sentimental city.
After the two days of the exam, the classmates gathered together, and everyone could see the fatigue in each other's eyes.
No matter how many emotions everyone had, at this moment, there was an indescribable weariness.
Li Chencan and Ye Huanxue stood opposite each other. Ye Huanxue thought about the past, the many adorable classmates, and almost forgot the pressure of the exam. Her mood turned into a different kind of melancholy. The two walked side by side in silence, and Ye Huanxue said, "Li Chencan, what do you want to do after graduation? Which school do you want to apply to?"
Li Chencan paused slightly, "I still want to apply to Yanjing University. My parents hope I can get in... but I might take a leave of absence if I do."
"A leave of absence?" Ye Huanxue found Li Chencan's thoughts hard to fathom. "Why?"
"I haven't decided yet, just a rough idea." Li Chencan felt he couldn't waste his eighteenth year. If he could get into Yanjing University, he would have a way to explain to his parents...
But the university in this life was the same as the one in his previous life.
Graduating from the Imperial University was very difficult; it wasn't something you could just coast through. You had to study hard... and Li Chencan felt he didn't have the time to study properly.
But plans often don't keep up with changes, and everything would have to wait and see.
At this moment, the slightly chubby Zhao Yongkang caught up. He was carrying a backpack and patted Li Chencan's shoulder, "How did it go?"
"Pretty good." Li Chencan smiled at his childhood friend.
He knew this guy had some feelings for Ye Huanxue...
Unfortunately, he had no chance.
"Ye Huanxue, what about you? Which school do you plan to apply to?" Thinking of Zhao Yongkang, Li Chencan deliberately asked her, and sure enough, Zhao Yongkang was very interested.
Ye Huanxue frowned prettily and then smiled, "Let's just go with the flow..."
More and more classmates joined them, and they all suggested sitting at the stone tables and benches on the grass. As they chatted, the mood of parting gradually spread... For some reason, Li Chencan suddenly had a sense of déjà vu, as if he was seeing a scene from a movie in his original world—*Those Years We Chased After*.
Should he also say, "My dream is to make the world a little different because of me"?
In the afternoon, everyone gathered to take the graduation photo.
This was an important ceremony, a preordained farewell. After this photo, everyone would only be a few pixels in a picture, a few memories. The high school years would disappear into the vast sea of people, along with the sound of hooves and the flowing Nan River in Rongcheng.
After the graduation photo, many girls were already crying uncontrollably, and many boys had red eyes, giving each other a punch. Many past grievances were forgotten.
Even Li Dong, when he saw Li Chencan, managed to force a smile.
How big could the grudges of high school be?
All the students in the senior year remained in place, not leaving even after the photo was taken. They were still saying goodbye to their classmates.
At this moment, a voice suddenly suggested, "Li Chencan, can you sing 'Deskmate of Mine' for us one more time?"
"Yeah, yeah! I want to hear it!"
"Sing for us!"
Everyone's voices echoed in agreement. "Deskmate of Mine" was a song that resonated deeply with these fragile hearts, and it was very fitting at this moment.
"Alright..." Li Chencan didn't refuse, but said, "I don't have anything to accompany me."
"I have a guitar!" Suddenly, Music Teacher Xue Feiyang appeared from the side, perfectly timing the delivery of a guitar to Li Chencan. A middle-aged man was with him.
"Thank you." Li Chencan said, and under everyone's watchful eyes, he sat on a chair, gently strumming the guitar. His voice turned into beautiful notes that entered everyone's ears.
"Will you remember me tomorrow..."
The voice slowly drifted over the scene filled with parting sorrow. Those who were chatting, feeling sad, or doing other things, all spontaneously gathered around Li Chencan, forming a large circle around him, with at least ten layers and two to three hundred people...
Everyone was silent, listening to the song, the clear guitar, and Li Chencan's clear voice.
"Back then, the sky was always so blue, and the days passed so slowly. You always said graduation was far away, but now we're all going our separate ways..." When Li Chencan sang these lyrics, a girl couldn't hold back her tears, covering her mouth as they began to slide down. Her sadness infected the others, and the spreading mood made everyone sob quietly.
Yes!
When studying, everyone wanted to escape the difficult studies and the well-meaning teachers, and felt the days passed too slowly... But how long had it been? In a fleeting moment, it was really time to graduate, time to go their separate ways.
And this process, like the sky and their clean student days, was a clear blue...
But now... everyone would scatter to the winds.
The sad mood spread wildly. A gentle breeze blew, and the tree branches rustled. Those emotions spread in the soft June air, in the clean air.
