Spring beside the moat of the old campus always revolves around the pink and white of the weeping begonias and the bright yellow of the willow branches. The moment Lin Yantian picked up the excerpt of current affairs, he bumped into Wen Nan running by with an interview book in his arms. The two notes with the words "Lancheng News Dream" made the promise of "eating beef noodles in the same city" become the brightest light in his high school years.
They were wrapped in the same thick knitted sweater and memorized press releases. When they failed in the mock test, they used baked sweet potatoes and handwritten encouragement to survive the cold winter. They posted sticky notes full of goals all over the back wall of the classroom. Even the curvature of the stacked interview books and excerpts concealed the tenderness of looking toward the future side by side. But when I returned to my hometown eight years later, crabapples still hung on my shoulders, and Wen Nan became a war correspondent heading south. The beef noodles agreement downstairs in the Lancheng newspaper office eventually became a regret that drifted away in the willow breeze.
This is a story about youth, news ideals and misses. It is hidden in every willow leaf that passes by the old time. When you read it, it is full of nostalgia for your high school years.
