Preface
Do you still remember the couple who ran out of the college entrance examination room hand in hand last year? Their story once swept the entire Internet, making countless netizens envious. But who would have thought that today, a year later, their story has taken a new turn, which is embarrassing.
The sweet time of youth without regrets
Recalling this time last year, outside the college entrance examination room in Changsha, Hunan, a couple of good-looking couples ran out of the examination room hand in hand, which instantly ignited the entire Internet. The sweet moment between the boy Chen Yixuan and the girl Dudu (screen name) makes people feel the best appearance of youth.
Dudu was successfully admitted to his favorite Southwest Petroleum University, but Chen Yixuan accidentally scribbled the wrong math answer sheet, resulting in a total score of only 617 points, missing out on the ideal university. Faced with this result, Chen Yixuan resolutely chose to repeat his studies, vowing to be ashamed in the college entrance examination next year.
The story of this young couple touched countless netizens. Everyone cheered them on, hoping that they could walk into the university campus together. For a time, the "college entrance examination couple" became a hot topic on the Internet, and their story was also rumored to be a good story. During the year of repeating, Chen Yixuan and Dudu began a long-distance relationship. Despite the distance between the two places, their relationship has not diminished in the slightest.
Dudu often secretly went to Chen Yixuan's repeating school to "secretly visit the class", bringing him surprises and encouragement. And Chen Yixuan will also queue up at Dudu's university in advance on holidays, just to buy her favorite mooncakes. These small details let netizens see the most beautiful appearance of love.
The two also shared their daily lives on social platforms, attracting a large number of followers. Their love story has become the envy of many people, and it has also brought hope and motivation to students who are preparing for the college entrance examination.
Unexpected results
Things didn't turn out as everyone expected. Just a few days ago, the results of the 2024 college entrance examination were announced, and Chen Yixuan posted a news on social platforms, saying that his results were not ideal, and even worse than last year.
As soon as this news came out, it immediately sparked heated discussions on the Internet. Many people expressed disbelief, after all, Chen Yixuan spent a year of time and energy to repeat the exam, how could it be worse than last year's exam?
Netizens have speculated about the reason. Someone said, "Sure enough, love affects learning!" Someone else joked: "It seems that you spend all your time shooting videos, right?" Some people even questioned Chen Yixuan's learning attitude, thinking that he might just be playing Internet celebrity.
In the face of these doubts, Chen Yixuan posted a long article on social platforms, expressing his mental journey. "Although the results were not ideal, I really learned a lot this year," he said. It is not only the accumulation of knowledge, but more importantly, the growth of the mind. I understand that there is more to life than the college entrance examination. "
Dudu also cheered for her boyfriend in the comment area: "No matter what the result is, I will support you as always." Together, we will be able to create a wonderful life that belongs to us. "
Polarization of public opinion
Faced with such a result, the reaction of netizens can be described as polarized. Some people expressed understanding and sympathy: "The pressure of repeating is really great, and it is not easy to persevere. Just because he doesn't get a good grade doesn't mean he's a loser. "
Others were critical: "I had long guessed that this would be the case." Shoot videos and fall in love all day long, how can you have the heart to study? Some people have even begun to reflect on the education system: "Is it really reasonable to set a lifetime by examination?" Shouldn't we give young people more choices? "
In the face of disturbing public opinion, Chen Yixuan and Dudu chose to remain silent. They know that no matter what the outside world says, the most important thing is their trust and support for each other. Although the results of the college entrance examination were not satisfactory, Chen Yixuan did not give up. He said on social platforms that he plans to apply for a university in Chengdu, so that he can be in the same city as Dudu.
For this decision, netizens also have mixed reviews. Some people praise him for his courage to fight for love, while others worry about whether he has affected his future development because of his feelings. Chen Yixuan and Dudu didn't seem to care about these voices. They posted a photo of holding hands on social platforms, with the caption: "No matter what the future holds, we will face it together." "
The story of this couple has also made many people think: in this era full of uncertainty, how should we plan our lives? Should you put all your hopes on one exam, or should you diversify and leave more possibilities for yourself?
The story of Chen Yixuan and Dudu is not a representative of failure. Instead, they use their own experiences to show us that there is more than one possibility in life. Although the results of the college entrance examination were not satisfactory, they gained love in this year, accumulated a large number of fans, and even created a lot of online income. Isn't this also a kind of success in life?
Some netizens commented: "It's not so much that they lost the college entrance examination, but that they won on the track of life." At least they bravely pursued the life they wanted, and this courage is worth emulating. "
In these times of rapid change, we can no longer measure a person's success by a single standard. Everyone has their own strengths and uniqueness, and the key is to find the right path for you.
Don't let the results of one exam put you off in the end. Your story has inspired countless people to see love in its purest form. The college entrance examination is just a node in life, not the end. You are still young, and the possibilities for the future are endless. Perhaps the current setbacks will become valuable assets in your lives.
True success is not a momentary high score, but the ability to hold on to your dreams and face every challenge in life bravely. You have done that, and that in itself is a remarkable achievement.
Don't be questioned and criticized in the unexpected world. The voices of criticism will eventually dissipate, but your love and courage will remain in people's hearts forever. Continue to maintain your sincerity and enthusiasm, and believe that one day, you will find your own wonderful life. Come on! We're all rooting for you!
Love vs Academics: How to Balance?
The story of Chen Yixuan and Dudu also makes us have to think about a commonplace question: how should love and study be balanced? Some people say that the reason why Chen Yixuan's grades have declined is because he has put too much energy on falling in love. But is that really the case?
Psychologist Professor Zhang said: "Love and study are not opposites. On the contrary, a moderate amount of love can bring positive emotions to people and help improve learning efficiency. The key is how to allocate time and energy wisely. "
What we see online is only a small part of Chen Yixuan and Dudu's lives. How much effort they put in behind the camera and how much struggle they went through, outsiders have no way of knowing. We shouldn't simply define them with a label like "falling in love affects learning".
Everyone's situation is different, and it's important to find a balance that works for you. There may be a long way to go, but as long as we move forward, we will eventually find our own piece of blue sky. Let's cheer for youth and cheer for dreams!
