The Fading Away of Our Youth (So Young)

To Our Youth That is Fading Away Chapter 16

When Zheng Wei returned to the dormitory, her whole body was so cold that it was stiff. Ruan Ruan and Zhu Xiao Bei prepared her some hot water, and the moment they saw her, they pushed her into the bathroom. The moment her skin touched the hot water, she felt that she was alive again. The second day, Ruan Ruan got a fever, her company, Zhu Xiao Bei, who had always eaten well said that her head hurt. Zheng Wei thought that she would also get seriously sick, after all, she was the one who had went through psychological and mental trauma, but after she lay down for a few days, she felt justified. Proving that she was the strong one who could never be beaten to death, the next day she woke up, very refreshed, without any problems in the world. She felt sincere sorrow and loss for the loss of her liveliness.

In such a complex state of mind, she managed to pass the finals mediocrely, when she finished her last class, “Applied Mechanics”, the school break was coming soon. According to their Architecture and Engineering Colleges, after every school year ended, there would be a small yard gala before the break, each class was a unit, and there were one or two people per show, to let everyone be lively and relax. Zheng Wei’s class had a guy who was doing a one person comic monologue, and they also had a few girls who sang “On Wings of Song”, and actually won applause.

After their own class shows ended, everyone would return to their seatings, Zheng Wei and Ruan Ruan went back to Xiao Bei and He Lu Ya’s side–the two had made a special trip to come see their roommates.

“Oh, Zheng Wei, you sing pretty well.” Zhu Xiao Bei saw her acting strange in the past few days, and simply said something nice.

Zheng Wei didn’t benefit, and waved her hand, “There’s nothing technical about it.” Her demeanor was still unhappy. Xiao Bei and Ruan Ruan exchanged glances, and felt that if she told them what was wrong, her heart would be able to take it easier.

The few people didn’t say anything, and watched the next show, tomorrow it would be time for the break, and a lot of students had already returned home, so the auditorium wasn’t full. The last program in the gala was a dance of Chen Xiao Zheng’s class, right after the host finished, Zhu Xiao Bei’s eyes brightened, “Look at their class, we’ll see if that rascal gets on the stage or not?”

“Booring.” Zheng Wei wasn’t interested at all. After the program began she couldn’t help but look up a bit, but there wasn’t him. She thought about and it made sense, he was such an arrogant and prideful person, how would he dream of entertaining people.

“That middle girl dances pretty well, her small hips are soft.” Xiao Bei reviewed as she watched.

“That one looks like Ceng Yu.” Ruan Ruan said.

Xiao Bei glanced over at Zheng Wei and immediately refined her statement, “I was about to say, who would be so ugly, so it was her, she looks like she’s doing the Yangge dance.”

Zheng Wei giggled, “Suure Xiao Bei, don’t pretend. Others are dancing better than you.” To tell the truth, she also thought Ceng Yu danced very well, Ceng Yu was also pretty good looking, and her studies were great, she heard that her personality was bold, and her father was their college’s associate dean, and her dancing was so good. These types of girls would definitely latch onto him, and he wasn’t unhurried, underneath she was a meaner person, no wonder she, the Jade Small Flying Dragon both gave a big somersault.

As she thought, the last dance ended, the gala had the properties of a competition, during the judge’s scoring, the female host whose face had been painted so white that it looked pure came out, she smiling said, “Right now, we are going into the nervous score-making session, before the results come out, would anyone like to come and perform……” Her sentence was obviously just a prearranged sentence, because within the Engineering and the Architecture colleges, there would definitely not be anyone who volunteered to be onstage, so she only stopped for a second, and continued, “If there isn’t, I would like to invite Ceng associate dean to come up and sing “Northern Spring”.” The moment she stopped, Northern Spring came on, the associate dean grabbed the microphone and smiled as he waited for the song to begin.
