After Sun Guowei went to Nanjing to study, he would send Ding Nan a message every night like before. He told her that this batch of Chinese soldiers from all over the country would be assigned to different military schools in Russia to study together. They mainly learned simple Russian, Russian customs and etiquette, and some of the discipline of Chinese soldiers in Russia.
Ding Nan's life had returned to the state before she met Sun Guowei. The only difference was that she could chat with Sun Yan often. Sometimes, she used QQ, and sometimes, she used the phone. Sun Yan told her that she had already found a job. She was working as an internal manager in a game company. She mocked herself. She was not a professional anyway, so everything was the same. Ding Nan also smiled and said,"I have a major, but I'm also doing a career change." It was all the same, as long as he liked it.
Sun Yan also told her that her estranged husband urged her to get a divorce every two or three days, saying that he would not register her child as a Beijing resident. She cursed. Was this a man? He registered his biological daughter and even negotiated for a divorce. Had he ever considered the child?
"Li Shi has always been thinking about you. He asked me about your situation several times. I think his conditions are not bad, just a little short. Are you really not going to consider it?”Sun Yan had asked that time.
"I really don't feel anything at all. Maybe it's because I have the People's Liberation Army in my heart. Forget it, let's not consider it for now." Ding Nan thought for a moment and said.
"You plan to wait for him? I don't think it's possible for the two of you to have an ending. Don't be silly! Even if he didn't go abroad, it was basically impossible for the two of you to do so, not to mention that he was going abroad for three years. Don't wait in vain. If there's a suitable one, you should meet him. Look everywhere. It's fine as long as you know your limits.”Sun Yan advised her. She had always been straightforward, daring to love and hate. She was straightforward, both to others and herself. Ding Nan liked her true personality. Actually, she was the same. Otherwise, she would not be divided into groups.
"Let nature take its course." Ding Nan sighed softly. She was at a loss like never before. Should she wait or not?
That night, Ding Nan was working overtime at the office to read the drafts of the three schools. At this moment, Sun Guowei sent a message asking her what she was doing.
"I'm working overtime at work. I've been busy these few days.”She replied briefly and looked down at the manuscript in her hand.
"I'm tired from playing and ready to sleep, but you're still working overtime and haven't returned home yet. Sigh!”Sun Guowei quickly replied.
Ding Nan stared at this message for a long time. For some reason, he felt strange. He might have just wanted to express his love for her, but in her eyes, his words seemed to be showing off his superiority, making her feel very uncomfortable. That's right, this might be the difference between those inside and outside the system. There would always be times when some people's fortunes were just that bad.
She suddenly felt that she was very far away from him, very far away. It was not just the distance between them. She decided to give up on this hopeless relationship.
Therefore, when Sun Yan said that she had helped her find another blind date partner, Wang Rui, who was a single father, she did not think about it for long before she went to meet him. At that time, she had just found out that she had passed the postgraduate examination and was in a good mood.
Sun Yan exaggerated how they met. She went to the dental clinic and Wang Rui happened to be a doctor. In order to ease her nervousness, he would talk to her from time to time. He wore a mask and looked very funny. As for her, every time she got up and rinsed her mouth, she would ask about the other party's situation, making Wang Rui angry and unable to laugh. In the end, after cleaning, killing nerves, applying medicine, and filling teeth, the two of them had known each other for nearly a month. They were very familiar with each other, so she said that she would introduce him to a partner.
The three of them met again at the Sichuan restaurant that Ding Nan was familiar with. However, Ding Nan was even more disappointed this time. Although Wang Rui was not short, his skin was fair, his family background and career were good, and he did not have any burdens, his daughter lived with his mother, and they had a common hobby, both of them liked writing, Ding Nan did not feel anything. If Li Shi was said to be more humorous and interesting, then Wang Rui could only make Ding Nan calm. Even though she had tried to get along with him for half a year after going to graduate school, they had never held hands even once in the past six months. She really could not find any feelings for him.
Later, when Ding Nan took a week off to go home to settle the household registration procedures and visit her son, her family introduced her to Zeng Xin, a single father with a son from the local tax bureau. The two of them got along very well and met twice, but they only felt like good friends. Later, after he went to graduate school, Ding Nan found out that Zeng Xin had found another female teacher with a child.
Perhaps, all of this was because she already had Sun Guowei in her heart. Even if he could not give her a result, he had already filled her heart. No matter how hard she tried, she could not squeeze out a space for others. She wanted to give up, but there was nothing she could do.
Ding Nan was often very disappointed in the place where she already had a home. Her postgraduate admission letter had arrived, and she would be leaving in September to go to school and live on campus. The house that they had booked in Ya Jing Fang Yuan had already been handed over for use. They were busy renovating the place. The two of them often went there and usually returned very late. Rong Xiaozhen borrowed 100,000 yuan from a friend and also secured a house in a small town near Tongzhou. She would move there soon. He had been busier recently, with work and a house.
Sometimes, when they were not around, Ding Nan would stand alone in the empty house and feel sad. There was a sense of desolation as if the song had ended and everyone had left. It had been three years, and they already had feelings for each other as family.
After Sun Guowei returned from Nanjing, he treated her even better. When she went to work, he would often help her wash her clothes, mop the floor, cook, and wait for her to go home for dinner. He liked to cook and enjoyed it. Moreover, he cooked very well, so she enjoyed it.
That day, Sun Guowei bought some envelopes that Ding Nan had never seen before. He said that he wanted to teach her how to write the address on the envelope. When he went to Russia in the future, these envelopes would come in handy when she wrote to him.
"Of course, you can also make a phone call, but it's expensive. It's more than two yuan per minute. I'll save some for you, and I'll save some for you too. It seems that we can also send messages to each other. If we need to open international roaming or other services, I'll go back and ask my colleagues who have been there before.”He fiddled with the envelopes as he spoke. He picked up one of them and looked at the front, then turned it over and looked at the back.
"Write the recipient's address and name on the front of this envelope. It has to be written in Russian. I'll write it all later and keep it for you to use in the future. On the back of the envelope is the sender's address and name. You can write it in Chinese. You can write it yourself.”As he spoke, he took out a notebook from his bag and flipped through it. He found a page with a few lines of Russian and told her that it was the address where they were studying in Russia.
"This is the address of a military academy in Sezlan, Russia. I heard that it's very close to the Volga River. It's the Volga River in the text we learned when we were young.”He explained with a smile as he moved his chair to the table and sat down. He took out a pen from his bag and began to write the address on the front of the envelope.
"Are all the people you went to the same place this time?”Ding Nan leaned on the table and asked as he watched him write the address.
"No, there are many people studying in Nanjing. Some of them go to Moscow, some go to Leningrador, and some go to other cities. However, my colleague and I were assigned to this military school in Cedzlan. We were quite lucky!”He stopped, looked at her, and smiled.
" Yeah, that's great. It'll be nice to have someone who knows you around." She nodded and then asked," Can you come back in the middle of these three years?"”
"You have family leave. You can come back every summer vacation or not. If you don't come back, you can travel to other cities in Russia. In the past two years, they would usually come back on their own during the first summer vacation, and their families would go to visit their relatives during the second summer vacation.”He replied while writing, looking very familiar. Then he explained that writing other Russian was still relatively unfamiliar, but those who were familiar with the address often wrote that to practice their feelings.
"How blissful! Hmm, can I use your family leave? I'll visit you next summer vacation and have some fun there.”Ding Nan thought for a moment and asked him.
"No, even Mom can't do it. Only a wife who has registered her marriage can do it. I've thought about it before and specially asked them.”He stopped writing and looked at her apologetically.
Ding Nan let out an "oh" in disappointment and lowered her head to look at the address he wrote. After a while, she asked,"Is Russian easy to learn? You've only been learning for two months. What can you learn? I've been learning English for ten years, but it's not very good.”
"What we learn is the simplest of daily communication. We have to learn more when we get there. We will learn languages and major at the same time. Some of them say that they're quite studious, but I don't think they're very studious. I heard that you southerners are more studious. Look, the tip of the tongue is pressed against the upper jaw where the teeth come into contact, and the sound produced is simply a stream of steam.”As he spoke, he made a Chinese "Zi" sound, saying that this was the most classic pronunciation in Russian.
"I know, I know. This is how we pronounce this word in our dialect.”Ding Nan immediately typed a few words in the dialect.
"It really looks like it, haha." He was shocked and laughed.
He laughed, and she laughed too. The two of them laughed together.
Very soon, Sun Guowei and the others had their visas approved and their flight tickets booked. Before he left, he was very busy. He handed over his work at the unit, entrusted his personal belongings, and bought and organized the necessities for going abroad. Two days before he left, they met once and never saw each other again.
The night before he left Beijing, Ding Nan sent him a message while lying on the bed.
"I'll wait for you, okay?" She asked tentatively, hoping that he would give her a positive answer so that she would wait for him without hesitation. She wanted to wait for him.
"I really want you to wait! I really want you to wait for me! But do you know what three years means? You will be far away from the youth of your twenties. Your youth will gradually fade away, and it will be impossible to turn back. You will become more and more powerless, and the pressure may crush you. In short, you can't afford to wait! I don't want you to wait hopelessly like this!”After a long silence, he replied with a long message.
She was very disappointed and sent another message." Do you want me to look for it again?”
"If there's a suitable one, look for it. If I get married or divorced in the future and you're still single, let's get back together, okay?”he replied.
She threw her phone on the bed and lay on her back, not wanting to reply.
"Baby, you're the only one in my life that no one can replace! She was a lover that no one could replace! Do your research well! Write to me! I'll come back to see you next summer vacation!" He sent another message.
"A year is so long! I'll miss you so much!" She turned around, tears streaming down her cheeks.
"Baby, go to sleep. I hope tomorrow is next year! Time has brought us together!”He sent the last message before leaving the country.
She burst into tears.
