Chapter 106 Farewell to 2008(1/2)
"Papa~"
"Pah pah pah pah~"
"Wow~"
The applause ranged from sporadic to enthusiastic to sustained.
All listeners did not hesitate to express their love.
Looking at the smiling young man on the stage, everyone had different thoughts.
Either admiration, jealousy, envy, or appreciation.
Fang Nian handed back the microphone and when he glanced across the cafeteria with his peripheral vision, he happened to see Guan Qiuhe's leaving figure at the door of the cafeteria...
After returning to his seat in the audience and sitting down, Fang Nian was almost praised by the stars.
The whisper that reached his ears even disturbed the sound of the principal's summary report that Fang Nian heard.
"Fang Nian, take it!"
"Your Chinese is really good. You used several poems in one speech."
"Some of them we haven't learned yet."
“It’s really amazing.”
"Lao Fang, awesome!"
"..."
Fang Nian smiled and responded with a few words.
In order to be recognized by teachers and schools, Fang Nian added some poems as appropriate to highlight the theme and also encourage learning.
The word 'romantic' is sometimes narrowly considered to be an exclusive noun in romance.
Fortunately, although it seemed to be a very bold speech title in Tangli No. 8 Middle School, the school finally tolerated it.
In other words, the last question has the meaning the school wants.
In short.
Applause is the best compliment. Fang Nian gave a speech on stage for the first time in his life and received a lot of recognition.
Excluding faculty and staff, there were an audience of 1,427 students.
Among all the speeches and summits given by Fang Nian in his two lifetimes, the number of listeners is probably among the top three.
The New Year's Day art performance of Tangli No. 8 Middle School lasted for three classes, from program performances to speeches to summary reports.
When the students were dismissed and returned to the classroom in an orderly manner, the bell just rang for the end of the seventh period.
There is a music class in the eighth period schedule of Class 174 on Tuesday, which usually becomes one of the three subjects of Chinese, Mathematics and English.
This time it was occupied by Li Donghong.
"Everyone has heard Fang Nian's speech. It was very good. I think it is necessary to think about it carefully."
"I suggest you take the time to find Fang Nian to read the speech."
"..."
After saying a few simple words, Li Donghong changed the subject and repeated the old tune again.
"Fang Nian's speech is very reasonable. The student years are the most carefree time. You just need to study hard and realize your dreams..."
"The reason why he used romance and dreams as the title is because these two things can better make people interested in learning."
"I have always emphasized that you should not just read dead books..."
"..."
The eighth class was spent in Li Donghong’s lectures...
...After school, Fang Nian met Lin Yucong on the playground.
She first said some complimentary words.
Seeing Fang Nian's playful look, Lin Yucong snorted, flicked his short hair, and asked.
"Fang Nian, your academic performance is already very good, why do you still think that you may regret it ten or eight years later?"
"Do you still have regrets about your current high school life?"
Hearing Lin Yucong's confused tone, Fang Nian fell into thinking.
Then he replied: "Maybe there will still be."
"It's like a test. Some people like to correct the answers. After correcting the answers, they want to do it again."
Lin Yucong blinked: "Then if I ask you now, what do you think your possible regrets are?"
Fang Nian thought for a while and answered seriously: "I didn't keep 2008 well."
"Ah?" Lin Yucong didn't know why.
Fang Nian smiled and did not explain.
To be serious, Fang Nian actually asked other people this question, what regrets he had about high school.
Basically it can be divided into two categories.
Category 1: Not studying well.
Category 2: Not in love.
After Fang Nian returned to life, he couldn't wait to make up for the first type of regret.
As for the second type, Fang Nian found that it was really difficult for him to be moved, let alone be tempted.
Therefore, Fang Nian, who came back with the answer, stood on the evening of the penultimate day of 2008 in the Gregorian calendar and saw his own regrets.
In 2008, I was not fully cherished by him.
When walking out of the school gate, Lin Yucong said again: "The holiday is coming soon. Have you decided on which day to go to Tongfeng?"
"On New Year's Day," Fang Nian replied.
"If you have a mobile phone, you will be fine sooner or later."
Lin Yucong nodded with a satisfied smile: "That's good, that's good."
Seeing this, Fang Nian suddenly said in a joking tone: "I suddenly want to say something interesting to you."
"Some people say that you should not be more than sixty percent drunk when drinking, you should not be more than seventy percent full when eating, and you should not be more than eighty percent in love with your lover."
Lin Yucong: "???"
"Want to know the last sentence?" Fang Nian asked with a smile.
Lin Yucong nodded.
Fang Nian said teasingly: "Most people often get drunk, overeat, and fall in love to the point where they end up vomiting all over themselves, growing a lot of flesh, and being abandoned."
Lin Yucong: "!"
Fang Nian sighed and changed the tone of chatting between friends: "So, no matter who you are with, don't be too satisfied. If you lose the other person, you will also lose yourself. It's not worth it."
"Especially for someone like me."
Lin Yucong was silent for a long time, and finally said without nodding or shaking his head, "I understand."
Fang Nian waved his hand and returned to the staff community.
Watching Fang Nian's back disappear into the yard, Lin Yucong bit the right side of his inner mouth and said in a low but serious voice.
"But, I just want to give it a try and like you 100%."
"This way, even if I meet a boy who is a hundred or ten thousand times better than you in the future, and who somehow makes my heart flutter, I will never be able to express my 100% liking for him."
"When I compare it with you, those inexplicable heartbeats will disappear."
"I can't prevent myself from being tempted, but I can find a way to refuse to be tempted."
"..."

"Sister He, did you go to No. 8 Middle School today?"
After opening the door and walking into 501, Fang Nian turned to look at Guan Qiuhe who was busy in the restaurant and asked.
"Well, let's go see your speech."
Guan Qiuhe replied.
"I was still thinking about why you said you were not interested before. Today I discovered that you are simply an unsolvable existence in a grassroots middle school. Even if you don't want to do something, you will be arranged."
After a pause, Guan Qiuhe said seriously: "The speech was very good."
“It feels like it’s suitable for all ages, and it’s also in line with the positivity that the school needs...”
