Chapter 28: Regrets in life are inevitable
When Xu Qingshan thought back to his past life, he always felt a slight discomfort.

Tong Tong is like a memory that has been buried for many years.

It’s not that strong, not that rich, but there’s a slight sense of regret when I hear it again.

He only knew roughly that Tong Tong's parents had actually divorced a long time ago, his mother had moved away, and his father maintained a decent appearance but actually spent his days drinking.

Tong Tong, a little girl, has been taking care of her grandmother and younger brother alone since she didn't know when.

But I think that shouldn't have happened yet, otherwise she wouldn't have come to Longjiang Experimental School to study, right?

But Xu Qingshan had no idea when the Tong family incident broke out.

He wanted to recall what he knew about Tong Tong's later life, but found it difficult to find any trace in his mind.

In the end, I never greeted you.

Looking back now, Xu Qingshan feels even more guilty.

However, he owed too many debts in his previous life, and had let down more than one or two people. Eight years in prison had changed him a lot.

Now that you have the opportunity, you must pay it back slowly.

Perhaps because of the heavy workload every day and the sufficient amount of exercise, Xu Qingshan has slept soundly every day since his rebirth.

But he didn't sleep very well that night.

Sunday, 10 am.

Xu Qingshan came out of the house empty-handed and went to the convenience store downstairs.

"Oh? Handsome guy, here again?"

The convenience store owner was watching TV and greeted Xu Qingshan when he saw him.

"I haven't seen you buy anything in a few days. It would be better if you smoke less."

While the boss was talking, he crossed his legs and watched "My Fair Princess" on Xiangnan TV. It has been popular for several years and is still very popular. I don't know which round of rebroadcast it is on Sunday morning.

"Hey, I'm not addicted, I just smoke occasionally."

Xu Qingshan smiled.

In order to reward him for his amazing performance in the mid-month exam, Lin Yuehua asked her grandmother to give Xu Qingshan 100 yuan as pocket money for this week, which could be regarded as a material reward.

"7 yuan."

The boss had already taken out a pack of Blue Wolf from the counter and placed it on the counter.

"No more blue wolves today."

Xu Qingshan's fingers moved rhythmically on the counter, making regular tapping sounds.

"Don't take the blue wolf? Then take the soft bag?"

The boss withdrew his gaze and looked at Xu Qingshan with a smile.

"Take the bag of blue starry sky."

Xu Qingshan looked in the cabinet for a while and took out a hundred yuan from his pocket.

The boss ignored Erkang's big nostrils at all. He looked at Xu Qingshan in surprise and stood in front of the counter.

"This pack costs 42. If you want to try Furong Wang, I recommend you buy a pack of hard blue. That one costs 32 and is very cost-effective."

The boss suggested.

“I want to collect Blue Star soft cases and filters.”

"Okay, 42."

The boss put a pack of nearly dark blue soft boxes on the counter, took Xu Qingshan's hundred-yuan bill, and took out a small ultraviolet lamp from under the counter, shining it carefully on the bill.

"I'll ask you to give me another glass bottle of Coke."

The boss thought about it, took out a bottle of Coke in a frosted glass bottle from the refrigerator, and opened the lid for Xu Qingshan.

"Thanks."

Xu Qingshan collected the money, picked up the glass bottle of Coke, raised the Coke in his hand to the convenience store owner, and walked out the door.

"Remember to give me the bottle when you come back in the evening."

The boss called out behind him and sat back in the recliner to look at Erkang's nostrils.

Xu Qingshan walked towards the school.

He was thinking while holding the box of Furong Wang's blue starry sky in his hand.

The cigarette case is well made, thick and crisp, with fine patterns, like high-end fabric.

Xu Qingshan opened the package and took out a cigarette. He held the cigarette in his hand and looked at the hollow filter at the end of the cigarette in the sunlight.

It was the outline of a head.

Some said it was Comrade Ulyanov, others said it was the librarian.

I just don't know what the person who designed this cigarette holder was thinking.

Hold a great man in your mouth?
What a dark humor.

He put away the treasure that was worth half of his fortune and planned to use it to save face.

He couldn't compete with those old men to see who smoked better, so he could only rely on taste and style. Lan Xingfu, who was unique in design, was just the right choice.

What's more, this is also one of Xu Qingshan's regrets in his previous life.

Before he was released from prison, he had seen Lan Xingfu and heard about the reputation and legend of this cigarette. In fact, he also yearned for it, but at that time he always felt that he had better choices than Tianxia, ​​Yuxi, and Huanghelou.
But when he was released from prison, he wanted to buy it at a convenience store with the money Lin Yuehua gave him.

The boss told him.

Everything else about Hibiscus King is complete except Blue Star Hibiscus.

Because Blue Star has stopped production.

There are bound to be regrets in life.

That's how people are.

The same is true for cigarettes.

A wisp of green smoke rises in broad daylight.

Xu Qingshan stood at the intersection and looked at the traffic lights under the scorching sun.

What a familiar combination.

Xu Qingshan took a deep breath.

The first bite was a bit spicy in the throat.

With the second puff, the rich and mellow flavor of tobacco fills the mouth, and when I exhale long, the smoke forms a cloud.

The taste is ethereal and mellow, the smoke is strong, clean and refreshing.

Xu Qingshan took only two puffs and then stopped for a moment. The aftertaste was slightly sweet and sour, with a long aftertaste.

Although some people always say that it only looks good and has a mediocre taste.

But when Xu Qingshan tasted it again, he found that its elegant and rich taste was excellent.

but.

In fact, has anyone stipulated that when buying cigarettes, you can only choose one type and buy a pack?

Not necessarily.

This time, Xu Qingshan wants them all.

After a while, one stick was empty.

Xu Qingshan felt his mouth was dry and there was a slightly astringent and grainy feeling on the sides of his tongue.

He looked at the glass bottle of Coke in his hand and grinned.

"An old fellow is an old fellow."

Under the scorching sun.

The boy poured Coke into his mouth, took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed the number.

"Hello? Mom."

"Yeah, it's okay. I'm on my way to school. Today I made an appointment with Ye Xincheng to study in the classroom, and then go for a run and play ball."

"Money? I have enough money. I just want to ask you for a favor."

"Well, please ask Aunt Tong Tong for Tong Tong's phone number. Also, Mom, can you help me find out if there is anything wrong with Tong Tong's family?"

"No."

"How is that possible? I'm already a senior in high school, how could I possibly be thinking about dating? No, I want to harm Tong Tong? Am I that kind of person? Mom, if you do this, I'm going to sue you for defamation."

"Well, we are from the same hometown, and we played so well together when we were young. She calls me brother, so I have to do what a brother should do."

"Well, okay, I'll try to get 600 points in the next monthly exam, don't worry! I failed!"

Hang up.

The boy's steps were much brisker than when he reached the intersection just now.

It seemed that under the gradually rising scorching sun, some rotten, old soul was being evaporated with heavy footsteps.

Instead.

It is a young and energetic soul.

After some time.

In the small square outside the senior art building of Longjiang Experimental Middle School.

Ye Xincheng's resentful voice echoed.

"Fuck! Xu Qingshan, can you still be a human being?"

"You've made such rapid progress in your studies, but now you're going to abuse me in the only sport I can show off, badminton, right?"

"Why are you so energetic today? So fast and tricky, I can't handle it!"

"No, you have to let me have 3 balls!"
