Chapter 143

The restroom on the green-skinned train of this era was very dirty. As long as a person stood inside for a while, the pungent, stinking smell would stain their body, and it would take a while to dissipate.

After washing his hands, Li Heng came out and blew hot air at the window in the aisle for a while, dissipating the air, but his eyes kept glancing outside.

Although Zhejiang Province's economy was very developed in later generations, it was about the same as inland provinces now. At a glance, it was all rice fields, and at a glance, it was all low farmhouses. Dusk had arrived, and the ridges were full of farmers carrying sacks and harvests back and forth.

"What are you looking at? Looking so intently?" Sun Manning, who had returned from queuing for hot water, patted him on his right shoulder and leaned over to look outside at the same time.

Li Heng joked: "Just now, I saw a peerless beauty."

Sun Manning stretched her neck: "Peerless beauty? Where?"

Li Heng pursed his lips at the sky: "Flew into the sky."

Sun Manning playfully cooperated: "You're talking about Guanyin Bodhisattva, right."

When the two turned to walk to the sleeper carriage, Sun Manning suddenly lowered her voice and said: "Eh? Are that old and young man cross-eyed? Why do they keep looking at you? They looked when we came over, and they're still looking now?"

Li Heng had also discovered it long ago, "Should be that they have a granddaughter to marry off."

"Hee hee! Li Heng, why are you so dishonest? Be careful, I'll tell Song Yu later." Sun Manning said with a grin.

Upon reaching the front, Li Heng stopped in front of the old and young man and tentatively asked: "Old man, do I look like a descendant of an old friend of yours?"

Looking at this, the old principal was not embarrassed, but smiled warmly, "Are you Li Heng?"

Li Heng nodded, looking confused?

The old principal continued to ask: "From Shaodong No. 1 High School?"

Li Heng looked at Mai Dong.

Mai Dong got up, pulled Li Heng to sit on the small stool, and laughed: "Uncle didn't leak your news."

Hearing this, Li Heng was even more confused.

However, the next second, when he saw the 'Harvest' magazine in Lin Shusen's hand and then saw that the page the book was opened to was exactly 'Cultural Bitter Travel', he vaguely understood something?

The old principal observed his micro-expressions meaningfully and didn't speak, seeming to find it very interesting.

Clearly Li Heng was very young, but being stared at by such a young person, Lin Shusen inexplicably felt a sense of pressure. Later, he introduced himself: "Li Heng, hello, I am Lin Shusen."

Then he introduced: "This gentleman beside me is my teacher, and also the principal of Fudan University."

Lin Shusen didn't know why the old principal was so abnormal today?

Nor did he know what background this Li Heng had?

But he understood one thing: the old principal was very concerned about this young man and seemed to value him highly.

Therefore, the very curious Lin Shusen simply shook out the old principal's identity.

Anyway, in his view, the old principal would also go up to give a speech at the Fudan opening ceremony, and his identity would be exposed anyway. It was just a matter of a few days early or late, no big deal.

Hearing that it was the principal of Fudan University, Sun Manning was shocked and instantly extremely nervous, even her standing posture was not so natural, and she hurriedly called 'Teacher, hello'.

The old principal smiled at Sun Manning, then turned to Li Heng, looking young at heart: "I heard you are also going to Fudan for school?"

Alright, this old guy is pretending, Li Heng followed and called out: "Teacher."

The old principal nodded with a smile. Seeing the literary big shot who was in the limelight call him 'Teacher' in a daze, he inexplicably felt a sense of achievement, then pointed to 'Cultural Bitter Travel' in the 'Harvest' magazine and said: "I heard, this was written by you?"

Seeing that the other party had broken it, and such a person with status, Li Heng naturally wouldn't go to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger again, and immediately said: "Travel insights written casually, maybe it can't enter your eyes."

Facing the older generation of intellectuals, regardless of his own achievements, he still maintained a respectful attitude.

The old principal pressed his hand and shook his head: "Humble, this level is something this old man can only appreciate, but can't write."

Li Heng smiled. Although he was a bit proud in his heart, he didn't say anything.

Because it was not easy to say anything. The other party was praising him, and responding would seem too impetuous. After all, his age was there.

And refuting it would go against his conscience, which would be even more hypocritical.

Therefore, it was better to remain silent.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Lin Shusen's mouth opened, staring at Li Heng, his brain directly crashed!

Is he 'December'?

Is Li Heng the writer 'December'?

How is it possible?

Is this going to defy heaven?

No, this has already defied heaven successfully. Damn it, not even 20 years old and already daring to challenge heaven!

What was I doing at this age?

Just finished the exam, still thinking about how to write a love letter to a female classmate in the same class.

How can the gap between people be so big?

The gap between people cannot be so big! How am I supposed to live?

Lin Shusen looked at the sky gradually darkening outside the window, then looked at Li Heng, and found that the person in front of him was so dazzling, so eye-catching!

No wonder!

No wonder the old principal wanted him to retrieve the other party's file. Such an awesome character coming to Fudan University is indeed an incredible thing.

Lin Shusen seemed to have already seen the future, the scene of Li Heng's statue standing on campus for the vast number of students to look up to and worship.

Fudan has never lacked awesome alumni, but reaching this level is truly rare. Moreover, Li Heng is still so young, his future is limitless!

Thinking and thinking, Lin Shusen shivered all over, looking at Li Heng's eyes even more passionately, while also mixed with envy and admiration!

He was not too jealous.

Because he knew that even ten of him couldn't catch up with the other party. The disparity was too great, already exceeding the boundary of jealousy.

At this moment, in Lin Shusen's heart, Li Heng was a character on par with the old principal, and his status climbed suddenly.

Lin Shusen was shocked, and Sun Manning beside him was even worse. This girl almost wet her pants, looking at him with an incredible look, as if she wanted to swallow him alive!

Wow!

So the rumors in No. 1 High School before were not all fake!

So writer 'December' was really in school!

So it was you, kid!

But how could it be you, kid?!

You kept it from me so hard!

My dad argued with people in the newspaper for two months because of you, and you were watching the show on the side the whole time!

I actually lived like a clown, always showing you off in front of you!

Sun Manning's look at Li Heng now was quite complicated! There was excitement and agitation, but more was surprise and disbelief, and a trace of wanting to take a knife to chop him.

I know you are doing better than me, but you can't be doing so much better than me. How can we get along equally in the future?

At some moment, Sun Manning had a worry of gain and loss, afraid of losing a good friend.

But it was only for a moment. After the moment, Sun Manning really wanted to reach out and touch Li Heng's head and say: You kid, you're amazing!

Mai Dong was also a bit uneasy. Although he had guessed it early, guessing was one thing, and admitting it to his face was another.

His eyes were glowing green now. He didn't expect that sending his daughter to study would have an unexpected harvest, getting to know such a character.

In the future, he could brag to friends and partners outside for decades!

Mai Dong's cultural level was not very high, just a high school graduate, but he respected cultured people from the bottom of his heart. This was also the reason why he tried his best to marry a technical school graduate wife, and this was also the reason why he fully supported his daughter in studying and taking the college entrance exam.

The old principal asked: "'Cultural Bitter Travel', was it a temporary idea? Or prepared for a long time?"

The reason he asked this question was because he chatted with his old friend from Peking University at noon and talked about these things, and it was the guess of the two after sighing and sighing.

It really is!

It really is, although 'Cultural Bitter Travel' has only published 6 chapters, its literary value and cultural value are extremely high, and it fills a blank in the current literary genre, which is 'travelogue'.

According to the old friend from Peking University: "'Living' made Li Heng famous in one book, establishing his status in the literary world; and if 'Cultural Bitter Travel' can continue to maintain such a high level, by the time it is finished, it will be the time when Li Heng's pattern is formed. Two books directly make Li Heng a god, giving him a place in the long river of Chinese literature."

Originally, some high-level officials at Peking University and Principal Sun didn't know that Li Heng was writer 'December', but a few days ago, when Yu Shuheng retrieved the file from Peking University and greeted the Fudan Admissions Office, it made people with intentions notice something unusual.

Although Yu Shuheng was just a teacher at Fudan, she didn't count as anything special in the Peking-Fudan circle, but everyone knew that her family background was very simple, yet she took the initiative to work on such a small matter. Isn't this against the rules?

By reason, for someone like Li Heng, filling in Peking University as the first choice and Fudan as the second choice, the teachers at the Fudan Admissions Office were very unhappy.

Even if Peking University is indeed better than Fudan, it is a fact, but filling in the application like this is more or less looking down on people.

Originally, if Yu Shuheng hadn't intervened, the Fudan Admissions Office didn't intend to admit Li Heng. There were so many students applying, and they didn't lack you at all, okay.

Why must I have you?

However, Yu Shuheng didn't care about so much and was too lazy to spend words, just lightly said: If Fudan doesn't want him, then I will let him go to Peking University.

Hearing this, the person in charge of the Fudan Admissions Office was confused. Miss Yu, what kind of nonsense are you talking about? The problem is he didn't get into Peking University, so how can he go to Peking University?

Are you going to use connections to help hard?

Alright, with the energy of your Yu family, this little thing doesn't need much human favor, but Li Heng's background looks like a rural student from left to right. How did he get hooked up with you, Yu Shuheng?

Finally, this matter reached the ears of the old principal.

The old principal knew there was something tricky as soon as he heard it, because he understood the Yu girl and wouldn't get involved in this kind of thing for no reason, so he personally made a phone call to ask with curiosity.

This time, Yu Shuheng explained: "Uncle Sun, Li Heng is the author of 'Living'. Peking University doesn't want him, it's Peking University's loss."

The old principal put down the teacup and asked: "Is it the 'December' who is arguing endlessly in the newspaper?"

Yu Shuheng said: "It's him."

The old principal was in a daze for a long time. After thoroughly figuring out the reason, he even called Peking University to show off to his friends at Peking University with schadenfreude.

The majestic old principal outside was now a vivid image of an old urchin.
