It was late in the morning. Xu Jinxiao slept soundly last night. He dreamed that he did something beastly to Shen Ting 'er last night. In his dream, he did not leave last night.
After washing up, Xu Jinxiao ate some breakfast and casually walked on the street. The college would soon send someone else to take over his job.
The greenery in the city was quite good. Rows of towering trees formed a large shady path.
With the sudden outbreak of the technological revolution, the world was in chaos for a few years. The various countries declared their sovereignty and their right to speak about space technology in the future. Spy, murder, war…Then, in order to enter space and build a Martian city, they started mining the mother sphere. The unrestrained excavation had left the former home planet riddled with holes…
They encouraged reproduction and took away a large number of talents and resources, leaving too many powerless ordinary people on Earth.
The remaining humans on Earth were trying to mend the situation, filling up the land and replanting forests. They were still drinking turtledove to quench their thirst. A large number of creatures were wiped out and disappeared from history. Now, the population of Earth was close to 20 billion…
The crowded world was slowly recovering, but leaving was still the choice of most people.
Xu Jinxiao wanted to go to school, but she was suddenly afraid of seeing those familiar faces again. However, she realized that apart from school, she knew very little about the outside world…
She laid in bed for another day to pack her luggage.
He wanted to look for his original postgraduate thesis, but the online version and handwritten materials had all disappeared. Maybe it was deleted by the company?
It had been so long, and Xu Jinxiao couldn't remember exactly what she had written.
He shook his head to stop himself from thinking.
A day passed by so quickly, and a brand new day had arrived without him realizing it! Time would not stop just because a person was not prepared.
Carrying his luggage, he cleaned the apartment that he had lived in for three years. When he turned around, he sighed and closed the door, never to be seen again!
Nine o'clock was the time he and Qiao Shinian had agreed to meet. He had arrived here at half past eight, waiting for the girl who was going to send him off!
Someone was already waiting for him at the entrance of the base station. It was Qiao Shinian's Secretary Zhang. There were also two people dressed in staff attire accompanying him. They stood beside him. Not far away, there was a gold-plated streamlined aircraft that looked quite advanced.
"Secretary Zhang?" Xu Jinxiao went over to greet him. Why are you here so early?"
"Hello, Xu Jinxiao. President Qiao asked us to pick you up here in advance.”Secretary Zhang smiled and pointed upward. He looked amiable with his thick eyes.
His rank was very high, and he came personally to show how much Qiao Shinian valued Xu Jinxiao!
Xu Jinxiao understood that this was also his benefit. After the company promised him to go to Uranus, they gave him benefits that were equal to or even higher than the regional vice president.
Secretary Zhang smiled and gestured for him to board the gilded aircraft behind him.
Xu Jinxiao shook her head slightly.
"Who is more important than us? Do you want President Qiao to wait for you?" A staff member beside Secretary Zhang was dissatisfied. He had thought that he was receiving a national leader. He did not expect it to be a publicist whose position was much lower than his.
Xu Jinxiao looked at him from the corner of her eyes.
Secretary Zhang stopped the staff member. He knew that Xu Jinxiao's current status was not low, and she was in a special period. Qiao Shinian asked him to try his best to satisfy all of Xu Jinxiao's requests, although Xu Jinxiao had only made one request at the moment... Uh, she couldn't be waiting for someone, right? Secretary Zhang was a smart person. He could easily deduce who Xu Jinxiao was waiting for.
"The time was set at nine o'clock. We came early. It's okay.”Secretary Zhang said. He didn't care at all and waited with Xu Jinxiao.
Xu Jinxiao put down her luggage and looked at the people coming and going. It was already 8:30 pm, but that person didn't appear. Was she not planning to come?
Beep beep. Xu Jinxiao's bracelet rang. She opened it in surprise. Unexpectedly, it was a call from Chuan Jianguo. As soon as the call was connected, there was a commotion on the other end.
"Hello? Brother, where are you? There? Don't move, I really want to see you." The other party spoke in Northeastern Mandarin, and his voice was surprisingly loud.
Xu Jinxiao raised her head and saw a shirtless man with golden hair waving his hand in the distance! There were also a few teachers who were with him.
"Xu Jinxiao, you left without saying goodbye to us?”A female teacher walked over angrily and pretended to hit him, but in the end, she could not do it. Instead, her eyes turned red.
Xu Jinxiao remembered her. She was an assistant teacher in the biology department. The two of them had played a lot in the same office.
"If Shen Ting 'er hadn't told us that you were leaving today, we would have been kept in the dark by you.”
Chuan Jianguo directly punched him in the chest, blaming him for not treating him as a brother and leaving without saying a word?
The teachers who were usually close to Xu Jinxiao came to send him off. Those who couldn't take leave also came to give their blessings.
Xu Jinxiao was very touched. Her eyes were a little wet as she hugged everyone.
"Brother, what position are you promoted to this time? There was even such a high-end aircraft to pick them up.”He pointed at the luxurious aircraft behind Secretary Zhang in the distance.
"I'm heading to Neptune Space Station to work as the frontline scientific research director there.”Qiao Shinian told Xu Jinxiao that it was not appropriate to disclose the secret deployment at this stage. The official transfer had arranged for him to be the director of the frontline scientific research department.
"Neptune is at the edge of the solar system. Isn't that too far away?”
" Perhaps, it will be many years before he returns, or perhaps…" Xu Jinxiao wanted to change her words, but in the end, she still said it frankly.
A gentle and quiet Gu Liang secretly wiped her eyes. She used to be a student at Qingming Academy and was very introverted. She had been taken care of by Xu Jinxiao. After graduation, she chose to stay in school and become a teaching assistant. Xu Jinxiao patted her shoulder and comforted her in a low voice.
" Lolita Shen suddenly received an interview notice from the Aden Galaxy Chamber of Commerce yesterday. She might not be coming…"
A close friend of Shen Ting 'er's told Xu Jinxiao that Shen Ting' er had applied for leave from school today. She had put on makeup and went out very early, and…She was a little hesitant, but in the end, she said that Shen Ting 'er's childhood sweetheart boyfriend was coming to Qingming Academy today.
Everyone was a discerning person. It was no secret that Xu Jinxiao had a good impression of Shen Ting 'er.
Shen Ting 'er left home very early, and her boyfriend came to visit her. Xu Jinxiao's departure was much better than the interview at the Aden Galaxy Chamber of Commerce and her boyfriend coming all the way to look for her. Perhaps if she really wanted to come, she would have arrived a long time ago?
"Shall I call her?" a female teacher said. Her name was Xu Haiyan, and she also watched the two of them walk over, even though they did not end up together in the end.
Xu Jinxiao stopped her." I'll wait for her until nine o'clock. She promised to come back and send me off!" I believe she will come back!"
......
Time seemed to have slowed down suddenly. The needle on the bracelet spun in circles. The crowd moved quickly, and everything became slow and fast.
The security guards at the workplace felt that they had caused a traffic jam and came over to ask them to leave. A staff member behind Secretary Zhang immediately showed him an identification card. Under the shocked expression of the security personnel, he gestured for him to leave. The security personnel immediately saluted and retreated.
Tick, tick. The space base station's clock timer rang. It was now nine o'clock sharp.
However, that person did not appear…
Xu Jinxiao's eyes were a little dim, but she still sat there. Chuan Jianguo pretended to comfort her, but Director Zhou stopped him.
Another ten minutes passed. The staff of the gilded aircraft pretended to rush him, but Secretary Zhang waved his hand to signal him to be quiet again.
Xu Jinxiao sat there with his head lowered. Chuan Jianguo sighed and patted him without saying anything. The teachers could not help but remain silent.
Xu Jinxiao stood up a little numbly. She looked around and forced a smile."Thank you for your care over the past few years. I, Xu Jinxiao, will leave without a trace!”
The man laughed and ignored the people behind him. He strode toward the aircraft behind Secretary Zhang.
The staff immediately opened the butterfly door of the high-end gilded aircraft. Xu Jinxiao paused. The future was unpredictable. It was like two lifetimes apart.
He strode into it!
He waved at his colleagues through the tempered glass window.
The aircraft slowly shot out a blue beam of light until it disappeared.
After a long time, a girl ran over recklessly. The girl still rushed over. Her head was covered in sweat. She ran very quickly, but she still didn't catch up.
She mustered her courage and shouted at the sky,"Xu Jinxiao…!"
Unfortunately, that man couldn't hear or see this scene.
"I hope that you will return as a young man after experiencing thousands of trials!!!”
The lost person eventually lost himself, but would the people who met meet meet again?
Some people might miss it if they missed it!
