Jiang Lingxi paused the video and looked at Jiang Lingxu with a frown, "You don't know?"
Jiang Lingxu's mouth trembled, and it took several seconds to hold back the words: "Then you didn't tell me either."
The first time he met Xu Lingan, he thought he was in the first year of high school due to his skinny appearance.
If he hadn't just happened to see this video, he wouldn't have known that he was already in his third year of high school and was almost finished answering this year's college entrance examination questions!
Jiang Lingxi: "...Oh."
She seemed to have never told her family which grade Xu Ling'an attended.
But is this a problem? Pretty no problem!
"Do you deserve to be so surprised?"
Only then did Jiang Lingxu realize that he had overreacted. He pursed his lips and lowered his head, suppressing the panic in his heart that the gap was getting wider and wider.
"Ahem, video, sister, I haven't finished watching the video yet."
Jiang Lingxi looked at the boy's head that was looking towards him without any trace, and clicked on the video again.
So while everyone else was still discussing Lin Xuefei, the three people here were quietly watching the college entrance examination interview.
The little girl who just came out of the examination room behind her seemed to have a temperament that didn't know how to reject others. At this moment, facing the reporter's interview, she just frowned slightly and nodded helplessly.
"I heard that this year's math test paper is not very easy to answer. It is more difficult than expected. What do you think, little sister?"
The interview was conducted in the crowd, and you can hear other candidates' answers to this question in the video.
"It's not that it's a little difficult, I think it's so hard that it explodes!"
"The only thing you are sure of is the multiple-choice questions."
"I couldn't understand the last big question, so I just wrote the solution."
…
The little girl who was asked by the reporter lowered her eyes and looked at the microphone stretched out in front of her. After being silent for two seconds, she nodded lightly and said, "It is indeed a bit difficult."
The half of the microphone exposed in the video obviously paused, obviously not expecting to get such a unique answer, and the reporter's voice became a little more excited, "So, little sister, are you done?"
"Yeah, but I only had time to check it once."
Reporter: "It seems that my little sister is very confident in herself. Keep it up. I also wish my little sister to achieve excellent results in this year's college entrance examination and enter the ideal university."
"Thanks."
The video finished playing, and the last shot showed the direction of the little girl running away.
The young man in gray short-sleeves held a big black umbrella in his hand, and held an old man with gray hair in his other arm. Both of them looked like they had been waiting for a long time.
The figure of the little girl running towards them was much more lively than when she was being interviewed just now.
"Visually, this little sister is a top student." Lu Zhengzheng concluded in a low voice, and then thought of the conversation between the siblings just now, "Sister Xixi and brother Xiaoxu know her?"
The siblings nodded together, and Jiang Lingxi even agreed: "She is indeed very good at studying, a very smart little girl."
Jiang Lingxu continued to be silent, which made Jiang Lingxi couldn't help but look at him again, her eyes falling on the boy's dim eyebrows, "Are you feeling inferior?"
After hearing what was on his mind, Jiang Lingxu silently stood up, squatted down facing the corner, and silently began to be in a daze.
Lu Zhengzheng saw him going to the corner to plant mushrooms without saying a word, "What's wrong with brother Xiaoxu?"
Jiang Lingxi continued to watch the video, waved her hand and replied: "Don't worry about it."
Some things can only be figured out by oneself.
*
In a small hotel next to the college entrance examination examination room.
As soon as Xu Lingan finished eating the lunch in the thermos box in front of him, his grandma and Brother Xiaolei urged him to go to bed to rest.
"I'm not sleepy yet."
"Then play with your phone for a while before going to sleep."
"Okay, grandma will stay with me."
Xu Lei booked a standard hourly room with three single beds, which was only used during lunch break.
He was lying on the outermost bed, quietly watching over his grandfather and grandson on the bed next to him.
"Hey, my sister just sent me a message."
"Isn't that kid filming?"
"Well, it's in the film and television city that was just built a few years ago on the outskirts of Beijing. After the college entrance examination is over, let's choose a good weather and I will take grandma to go shopping together."
"Then I'll be waiting." Gao Lan accepted the agreement with a smile, "Let's see what message your sister Xixi sent you."
Xu Ling'an opened the unread message that had just been sent in anticipation. After reading it, his face turned a little red. He turned around and saw his grandma raising her chin and squinting. He realized that grandma couldn't see the words on the screen clearly without reading glasses, so he had to Holding back her shyness, she muttered: "Grandma, the message from my sister is this. An'an, when I was watching videos on the set, I saw a video of a reporter interviewing our primary school bully on the Internet. It's great. Keep up the good work!"
When his granddaughter was stopped by reporters for an interview, Gao Lan also saw it, but he didn't expect, "The video would be posted online so quickly."
Xu Lei had already taken out his second-hand mobile phone and started searching silently. At the same time, he explained to the elderly who were not familiar with the speed of information circulation nowadays, "That's not it, grandma. Now you only need a mobile phone. You can do anything. Edit an article." The video can be finished in a few minutes after it is posted online. Sister Xixi can see it so quickly, probably because the most popular thing on the Internet now is about the college entrance examination. As soon as the video is posted, many people will see it."
While he was talking, he had already searched for the video of Xu Ling'an's interview. Even though he had just said it clearly, when he saw the playback volume displayed in the lower left corner of the video, he still couldn't help but take a breath, "It's too fast to play. A million!”
"A million? A million people have seen An An on their mobile phones?" Gao Lan's heart skipped a beat, and he moved his lips, but swallowed back his unfinished words.
But Xu Ling'an had grown up under the old man's knees since he was a child. He just looked at his grandmother who suddenly became silent. After thinking about it for a moment, he guessed what the unfinished words just said were.
My mother has been missing for so many years, and trying to find traces in this vast sea of people is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
But now a short interview video can be seen by more than one million people in less than an hour.
What if, among the more than one million people, one of the people who saw the video happens to be a mother?
Can mom still recognize that she is An An?
If she had known that the number of views would be so high, she should have introduced herself in front of the camera.
After all, what if!
The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, and Gao Lan patted the child's shoulder with relief, "Okay, go to bed quickly, there is an exam in the afternoon. Don't think about anything now, the most important thing is to be mentally prepared for the exam in the afternoon. matter."
"I know, grandma, I'll go to bed after I reply to sister Xixi."
Jiang Lingxi was lying on the folding chair in the temporary rest room. As she slept in a daze, she felt her phone vibrate on the table beside her. When she picked it up, she saw the message Xu Ling'an had sent her: "Sister, it's hard work filming. I'm waiting for the college entrance examination." Can grandma and I go to the film and television city to visit the class after this?"
"Welcome."
After reading the message he received, Xu Ling leaned in her grandma's arms with satisfaction and closed her eyes, "Grandma, let's go visit my sister at that time. I'm going to sleep first!"
