Huo Jinwei smiled: "Try pushing you into the water to see if you will push me away this time." ”

Lin Dingqiang frowned and politely refused: "Don't be, this water monster is cold." Cold, not good. ”

"I'm kidding!" Huo Jinwei sat opposite Lin Dingqiang and said softly: "If you have a cold, I will take care of you." You're beautiful!"

"No, as long as you don't think about it, I won't catch a cold!"

Huo Jinwei asked with a smile, "Let's talk about it." ”

Lin Dingqiang was puzzled: "What did you say?"

"You see we've known each other for so long, I don't know what you usually like to do!" Huo Jinwei stared at Lin Dingqiang expectantly, "Why don't I come first?"

The rippling water gently caressed the sides of the boat, and in this rocking, Huo Jinwei confided in her heart, "I usually like to watch movies, especially horror movies. Of course, when Sansa wasn't there. What about you?"

"I don't seem to have any special hobbies. Lin Dingqiang responded: "There is only one movie I like, "Smell the Fragrance and Know the Woman". ”

"I can't imagine you are still so nostalgic!" Huo Jinwei sighed: "What about sports? I like skiing." ”

"Basketball counts as one," Lin Dingqiang said this, and remembered the past when he used to play on the court with Xin Qing, and his expression became a little melancholy, "But I haven't played for a long time." ”

Huo Jinwei said in surprise: "You still play basketball? I thought you only liked to play golf!"

"To be honest, I can't play golf at a good level. Lin Dingqiang laughed at himself: "It turned out that I went with Xin Qing to ......"

Lin Dingqiang didn't finish his words, because he saw Huo Jinwei's slightly stunned eyes, and knew that it was a little inappropriate to say such things again under such circumstances.

Huo Jinwei saw that Lin Dingqiang didn't say anything, the corners of her tight eyes became relaxed, she took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "You go on! I said, I'm not a jealous woman." After all, you and Xin Qing have so many unforgettable pasts, it is unrealistic for you to completely forget them for a while. ”

"It's nothing. Lin Dingqiang laughed helplessly, "Anyway, she is much better than me." ”

Huo Jinwei raised her eyebrows, "Okay, don't talk about this." Ding Qiang, let's go drink later, and be happy. ”

"You're not afraid of getting drunk?"

"With you, what am I afraid of?" Huo Jinwei asked rhetorically.

The two went ashore at the next estuary and walked through the streets of Venice, and Lin Dingqiang always had the feeling of walking into a textbook.

The densely packed shops neatly stack the most popular handicrafts in the windows, plus the restaurants with various signboards, and swim in them? It really has the feeling of a Venetian merchant.

But? Lin Dingqiang didn't come to buy goods on this trip, and although this is a famous tourist attraction? I haven't seen Yu's enthusiastic boss go out to solicit customers. Looking up? These old buildings don't even have their windows open, but you can see the breath of life in the houses through the windows? It should be closed in order to avoid the hustle and bustle of the streets.

The alley has the feel of an alley? And judging by the cordon on the wall? The city is flooded all year round. Some old houses have already entered the age of wind and candles, and they are in danger, but they have not seen a big word split.

But there are some back alleys that smell a foul smell? Familiar with the smell? It's not stinky fish and rotten shrimp, but humans deliberately or can't help but leave it.

The two pinched their noses and quickly shuttled through the narrow alley, and after walking through this filthy road, they came to a glass store.

The exquisite glass in the window instantly caught Huo Jinwei's eyeballs, and she stopped? Stop and watch for a long time.

"Like?" Lin Dingqiang asked.

Huo Jinwei nodded, "I like to collect cups very much?" Especially glasses. On Hong Kong Island, I have a cabinet of Guy Degrenne? When I'm upset, I like to take it out and wipe it. Looking at a clean cup and knowing that it will break if you are not careful? My heart was much calmer. ”

"Shall we go in and have a look?" Lin Dingqiang proposed: "If you have a favorite? I give it to you. ”

Huo Jinwei smiled, "Okay." ”

The two pushed the door open and entered the store, where the dazzling array of glasswork glowed faintly in the soft light.

The owner is an elderly Venetian, about 60 years old, who at first glance gives the impression of being urbane and undeceitful.

He saw the two of them walk into the store, and he walked up enthusiastically with an apron, Huo Jinwei talked to him a few words, and there was an excited look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Lin Dingqiang said curiously.

Huo Jinwei said happily: "He invited us to go to the kiln in the back to see the production process. And his pieces are all handmade, and each one is unique. ”

"Then you have to buy it even more. Lin Dingqiang smiled: "Let's go, let's take a look." ”

The two followed the old man's footsteps to the production room at the back of the shop, and as soon as they entered the door, they saw a red-burning kiln, and the fire illuminated the faces of the three of them red, and a wave of heat also hit their faces.

The old man first gave the two goggles, and then demonstrated the technique of blowing glass.

I saw him pick up a steel pipe more than a meter long, dip one end into the molten glass from the furnace, and aim the other end at his mouth.

When everything was ready, the old man blew the liquid into a glass ball on the rolling board.

Glass blowing is a craft, and when Huo Jinwei saw the natural formation of bubbles due to the inability to surface surface, she said to Lin Dingqiang: "Ding Qiang, these bubbles are the life of this artwork." It is difficult to achieve true flawlessness in handmade glass, but it is precisely because of these imperfections that it gives people a sense of beauty. ”

Lin Dingqiang nodded as if he didn't understand, in his opinion, the old man's craftsmanship was indeed good, but if he wanted him to say that he was ugly, it was just a good blow.

The shape of the instrument was revealed, it turned out that the old man was blowing a glass bowl, Huo Jinwei was fascinated, she was more excited than seeing any bags and clothes, she quickly said a few words to the old man, and the old man also smiled after hearing it.

"What are you talking about?" Lin Dingqiang asked, "Why is this old man really happy when he hears it." ”

"I asked him to make two letters for me. Huo Jinwei turned her head and smiled, "I originally wanted S and J, corresponding to our English names." But on second thought, L and W are more suitable. ”

"L and W?" Lin Ding said puzzled, "What do you mean?"

"L is your last name, W is my first name. Huo Jinwei explained bluntly: "Leave your surname and my name on this glass bowl, and you have to be careful in this life." Put it in the best position when you go back!"

Lin Dingqiang understood Huo Jinwei's intentions, and for a while, he was moved in his heart, and there was also a debt to Huo Jinwei.

The speed of the steel pipe gradually increased, and the two saw that the bowl that had begun to take shape was opened with an opening, and the opening gradually increased with the action of centrifugal force, and finally formed the shape of a bowl mouth.

The fiery red liquid glass became familiar, and it gradually became transparent, and it became the same product as on the display case outside.

After about half an hour, with a crisp cracking sound, a transparent small bowl appeared on the display table, the two of them approached curiously, Lin Dingqiang sighed: "This master's technique is okay!"

The old man was curious about what Lin Dingqiang said and asked Huo Jinwei.

Huo Jinwei condensed the three words of master into Master, which made the old man wave his hand again and again, and muttered a lot.

"What's wrong with him?"

Huo Jinwei explained: "The old man said that he was not a master, and there were few people in Venice who could afford the title of master. He was also a learner, an apprentice. ”

Lin Dingqiang looked at the modest old man, thinking about his age in his 60s, although he didn't understand the language, he still gave a sincere thumbs up.

If nothing else, just for this mentality.

Huo Jinwei then talked to the old man, and Lin Dingqiang was curious, he also wanted to know what kind of glass the master who claimed to be an apprentice blew out.

He stretched out his hand to the finished product on the table, but at the moment of contact, the seemingly cold glass remained at an unimaginably high temperature.

Lin Dingqiang was burned, he shrank his hand suddenly, blew his fingers, and said in his mouth: "This thing is really hot!"

This move frightened Huo Jinwei, she hurriedly held Lin Dingqiang's hand, blew it a few times, and then put it on her earlobe and kneaded it gently, raised her head and blamed: "Why are you so stupid! How can you touch such a hot thing with your hands." ”

"Isn't it okay for me to think it?" Lin Dingqiang said subconsciously: "I just want to pick it up and take a look." ”

"You're really!, you're burned!" Huo Jinwei said anxiously, her tone full of blame, "I don't know how to ask." If you took it with your whole hand, wouldn't it be burned even worse?"

Only then did the two of them realize that the action of touching the earlobe seemed ambiguous, Huo Jinwei hurriedly let go of her hand, and Lin Dingqiang withdrew her hand faster this time than if he had just been burned.

"That ......" Huo Jinwei's face didn't know if it had become more ruddy because of the fire, "When Shanshan was burned, I often did this. ”

"Yes. Lin Ding forced his fingers to blow, "It's quite effective." ”

Huo Jinwei's eyes lit up, and she said slowly: "This bowl needs to be cooled in the insulated cabinet, it will take about two hours, I told the boss that I will come back to get it later." ”

"Then we ...... now"

"You go and pay!" Huo Jinwei stomped her little feet and said softly, "Didn't you say that you would give it to me?"

"I know! Lin Ding said incoherently: "How many?"

"35 euros!"

Lin Dingqiang hurriedly followed the old man out of the production room, and after giving 35 euros, he waited for about ten seconds before Huo Jinwei walked out.

"Paid. ”

Huo Jinwei bowed her head and said, "Then let's go." ”

"Good. ”

Both of them stiffened their steps, each preoccupied with it, so that they didn't even notice the cramped door when they came.

Huo Jinwei's head hit Lin Dingqiang's shoulder, and after a soft sigh of disgust, Lin Dingqiang took half a step back, and Huo Jinwei walked out of the store.

"I want to walk alone. After Huo Jinwei went out, she didn't look back and said, "I'll walk along this road, and we'll come back here to meet when the time comes." ”

Lin Dingqiang also wanted to be alone and quiet, his mood at the moment was probably not calmer than Huo Jinwei, "Okay, I'll go this way." ”

The two walked in two opposite directions in front of the glass shop, and at first their steps were hurried, and they did not slow down until they had taken a few dozen steps.

The noise around him was still there, but Lin Dingqiang's ears could no longer hear the sound except his own heartbeat, he subconsciously walked, following the flow of people, as if looking for what he had been pursuing.

But Venice is so big, and after about ten minutes of separation, the two actually met again on a street corner.

Huo Jinwei raised her head and looked at Lin Dingqiang who was more than ten steps away with affectionate eyes.

And Lin Dingqiang also saw that familiar face in the bustling crowd.

Huo Jinwei took five or six steps forward and stopped, while Lin Dingqiang also took three or four steps in the direction where Huo Jinwei was.

The two just looked into each other's eyes, without saying too many words, no matter how noisy the surrounding environment was, at this moment, the two seemed to be able to hear each other's hearts from each other's eyes.

"Aren't you taking the last two steps?" After a stalemate of five or six minutes, Huo Jinwei finally spoke.

Lin Dingqiang's toes moved forward an inch, he couldn't avoid those hot eyes, and the narrow alley didn't give him room to turn back.

Huo Jinwei saw Lin Dingqiang's footsteps move, and her heartbeat accelerated. But Lin Dingqiang only moved for a moment, and he took root like a wooden stake.

"If you don't go, I'll go. Huo Jinwei took the last step with her head held high, stood in front of Lin Dingqiang, held her hands behind her back, and asked, "Do you want to say anything to me?" ”

"I ......"

Huo Jinwei took a deep breath and took the lead in saying, "This time, I'll come first." ”

After another pause, Huo Jinwei took out the courage of this life and said to Lin Dingqiang: "Ding Qiang, I like you." ”

"Jinwei, I ......"

"I like you, like the kind of love that the stars will always accompany the moon. Huo Jinwei pressed her index finger on Lin Dingqiang's lips, bowed her head and said, "Moreover, what I want to spend with you is not only this journey, but also want to be with you for the rest of my life!"

Faced with Huo Jinwei's bold and domineering confession, Lin Dingqiang was instantly stunned.

Huo Jinwei raised her head slowly, her eyes were unusually sincere, and she said confidently and firmly: "Moreover, only I, Huo Jinwei, am the most suitable person for you in this world!"

Lin Ding rolled his throat, stretched out his hand and gently pulled down the hand that was blocked on his lips, and countless words were blocked in his throat.

After a while, Lin Dingqiang thought of something, "Eh! No, the script is wrong!"

Huo Jinwei frowned, "What's wrong?"

"Why did you become a domineering female president, and I became a little milk dog?" Lin Dingqiang said with a smile.

Huo Jinwei broke the gong in a second, she pulled out the hand that was pulled down by Lin Dingqiang, twisted his arm heavily, and said with red eyes: "Why can't you change this problem of broken mouth! I, Huo Jinwei, have grown so big, I have never confessed to a boy!"

Lin Dingqiang was really hurt, leaned over, and begged for mercy, "Eh! don't screw me, it hurts!"
