Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

Chapter 1264 Long Time No See!

He had always thought this was Lao Zhao's dream, and that he was a supporting character who came in to form a team and make up the number of people to start the game.

Later, he discovered that he wasn't just there to make up the numbers; he also had the task of waking up Old Zhao and preventing him from sinking into his dream.

I thought that with Lao Zhao gone, everything was over and he was about to wake up, but I never expected there would be a second challenge.

It was only at this moment that he realized that this was not Lao Zhao's dream, but a fusion of his and Lao Zhao's dreams.

Now that Old Zhao's dream has faded, it's naturally his turn. You know, he was the one who drank that wine back then.

Since they had both drunk alcohol, they would naturally face the same situation. Fortunately, although he was also separated from his lover by life and death, it was not a lover or a relative.

If this were decades later, when he's older and many people around him have passed away, he wouldn't even know how many people he actually wants to see.

His deceased parents, friends, or even something he deeply regrets—after all, he's only lived for a little over twenty years, and the world is still long ahead of him; who knows what regrets might happen to him?

Fortunately, he is still young and has had a relatively smooth life since childhood. His parents are alive and well, his lover is by his side, and his friends are right across from him.

He can see whoever he wants anytime, especially now that he's financially independent and can go wherever he wants. The shopping page fills him with anticipation for every day of the future, as he looks forward to experiencing a wonderful life.

He has no regrets. If he had to say there were any, it would probably be his high school deskmate.

After all, the two of them had a really good relationship back then, especially after she left, she left such a deep impression on them, her classmates.

As for romantic love? The two weren't at that level. When he first heard the news, he and Liu Ruyan weren't together yet. It was just a single man suddenly facing the expression of affection from a girl who had already passed away.

There is regret, there is sadness, and of course there is also a faint sense of white moonlight.

But since October 1st last year, he and Liu Ruyan have confirmed their relationship, their feelings have warmed up, and now they have both graduated. So even though he saw that familiar figure again, he was not as excited as Lao Zhao. He was only happy, just like meeting an old friend.

After all, the boy hadn't experienced much hardship, and this unfinished farewell became his biggest regret.

"long time no see!"

"long time no see!"

Wearing a school uniform, Jiang Xia looked at him with a smile. Her eyes were not those of her high school self. It was obvious that the Jiang Xia in front of him, like Xu Ying, carried all her memories.

However, Xu Ying chose to play dumb and didn't tell Lao Zhao, perhaps because she was afraid of hurting him, or perhaps she also wanted to reminisce with Lao Zhao about the past and wanted to get along like before.

He wouldn't have noticed if Xu Ying hadn't blurted out "you've lost weight" after Lao Zhao disappeared.

Perhaps when she first saw Lao Zhao, she knew that he had suffered a lot after she left!

But Jiang Xia didn't pretend to be oblivious. When Lin Mo said "long time no see," she knew that her letter had been delivered.

Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance and then smiled at each other.

This time, when they hadn't seen each other for a long time, he spoke very frankly, just as Jiang Xia had instructed, without trembling.

In the classroom of Class 30, the two sat together in the front row, just like four years ago, becoming deskmates again.

Jiang Xia was still wearing his school uniform, which was a bit oversized. She looked very lively and was smiling at him. She had two dimples on her face, a catfish-whisker hairstyle, and a bit of baby fat on her face.

Lin Mo, on the other hand, had changed drastically. He wore black casual pants and a black shirt, and his hair was shorter than it was in high school. He looked more energetic, and his skin was incredibly smooth and fair. His entire demeanor had undergone a dramatic transformation; he was confident and sunny, embodying the spirited and energetic young man he should be.

Seeing this, Jiang Xia reached out and poked Lin Mo's face with her finger and couldn't help but laugh: "Anyone who didn't know better would think you went to be a trainee and debuted on the spot. You've changed so much."

But please don't. If you debut, and I see other girls holding up your support signs and calling you "brother," I won't be able to help but burst out laughing, hahaha!

Hearing this, Lin Mo laughed and waved his hand: "No way, I don't have the talent to debut."

“I think so too. By the way, how have you been these past few years? Have you achieved any academic success?” Jiang Xia asked, sitting at her desk and resting her chin on her hand.

Lin Mo nodded: "I guess so. I performed exceptionally well in the college entrance exam, passed the second-tier university cutoff, and went to the University of Science and Technology in Jiangning. Oh, by the way, I just finished my graduation defense a couple of days ago, and I'll get my university diploma at the end of this month, and I'll be officially graduated!" "Really? That's great! Tell me about it, how's university life? Are there any pretty girls? Did you have a sweet yet heart-wrenching romance?" Jiang Xia asked curiously.

She took the college entrance examination and even received a university admission notice, but she didn't go to university. From childhood to adulthood, she had always heard her teachers and classmates talk about how great university life was.

She could play with her phone as much as she wanted, and she could also date freely, join various interest groups, and even when watching TV series or videos at night, she especially envied the feeling of sitting on the lawn of a university, chatting with a few good friends.

Although she chose to see more and see more scenery, she still regretted not going to university and wanted to confirm it with Lin Mo.

Hearing this, Lin Mo shrugged: "University life? It's so-so! I think it's just average!"

Aside from the fact that you can play on your phone freely, there's really nothing else. There's no list of school beauties or school hunks, and the school's confession wall gets very few views. It's called a confession wall, but it's mostly filled with complaints. The school's official website is also deserted. It's so different from what you see in TV dramas.

Moreover, our school is typically predominantly male with fewer girls, and there are even fewer girls in my class, and their quality is generally average. I don't feel any attraction to them at all, but the games are quite fun.

My other three roommates were a bunch of idiots, but they all had pretty good personalities, and we got along very well. Time flew by, and graduation was just around the corner. Looking back now, it wasn't so bad; at least I made some new friends.

He wasn't lying at all. For some, college life is incredibly exciting, but for most, it's just pretty ordinary.

Successful people are either constantly preparing for postgraduate entrance exams or doctoral entrance exams, so busy that they have no time to spare, and the pressure of academic studies is even greater than in high school; or they are busy participating in various competitions and winning awards. Although their lives are exciting, they have no free time.

For an ordinary person like him, university life seems to consist of nothing but playing games, eating, and sleeping. As for studying? Isn't that something to worry about in the last two weeks of each semester?

It's fair to say that during his four years of university, he did absolutely nothing except improve his health.

If it weren't for the shopping page, he would probably be screwing in screws in that factory or working as a programmer in some company, working for a few years and then starting to lose his hair!

He then briefly recounted his boring and mundane college life. But instead of being disappointed, Jiang Xia was quite envious. In the end, she couldn't help but sigh with envy, "That's good too. It's just that I left early. If this disease had come a few years later, at least I could have enjoyed college life. It would have been even better if I had come after graduating from college, because then I could have gone out and played around."

This is Jiang Xia. She is always optimistic and never complains about her past suffering. Instead, she enjoys the present moment in her own way.

"How about you? Have you had a wonderful few years? I received the things you left me, there are many photos of you in various places, I'm so envious!" Lin Mo said with a smile.

Jiang Xia nodded emphatically: "I'm doing great too. I've been to so many places. I feel like many people don't have a life as exciting as these past few years."

Most people who play like me would be mortgaging their future, but I don't need to. I don't have a future, so I don't have to worry about future problems. I'm having so much fun.

Did you know that traveling across the country doesn't actually cost much? We used to think that traveling across the country was a privilege for the rich, but as long as you don't go on an extravagant trip, it really doesn't cost much. But I've seen so many sights that I used to only see in textbooks, on TV, and on my phone.

As she said this, Jiang Xia showed not a trace of regret; her eyes were filled with excitement and satisfaction, as if she had made the most correct decision ever.

The two chatted for a long time, about Lin Mo's four years of university and Jiang Xia's wonderful travel experiences; the topics seemed endless.

"Oh, it's so good to see you like this now. Back in our class, who would have thought you'd turn out like this after going to college?"

Jiang Xia stood up and walked around the classroom, her hand brushing against each of the desks, each occupied by a person.

Seeing this, Lin Mo also got up and went to the window to look downstairs. The sun was shining brightly outside, but there wasn't a single student in sight.

"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future? Oh, right, let me think... today seems to be the end of the college entrance exam, and another batch of younger students will be entering university!" Lin Mo said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xia was taken aback: "Really? Then they're about to embark on an exciting life!"

Lin Mo shook his head: "No, it's not that. If I had known that time would pass so quickly after the college entrance examination, I wouldn't have run so fast back then."

Honestly, I don't know if the road ahead will be easy or not. After all, I haven't really graduated yet and haven't experienced the cruelty of society. But life after the college entrance exam really seems to have accelerated. In the blink of an eye, we haven't seen each other for four years.

If I had known time would fly by so quickly, I would have come back and had a proper talk with you when you asked if we would ever meet again!

Hearing this, Jiang Xia came to his side and looked downstairs together, laughing, "No one wants to hear stories that end happily ever after because they're too perfect. It's good to have a little regret, because it's precisely because of the regret that we can meet again, isn't it?"

Lin Mo smiled upon hearing this:

"Too!"
