Chapter 21: Duckweed in the Pool
Now, Yinglong feels that campus life is becoming more and more interesting, he seems to like this university even more, and everything seems to be rushing, all because of knowing Shiwei.
It is better to meet than to meet, he accidentally met a cute girl like Shiwei, which made him feel too lucky, too coincidental, as if he had won the jackpot.
Yinglong was full of curiosity about her and wanted to know everything about Shiwei, but Yinglong didn't expect Shiwei to be also curious about him.
When he no longer doubts the phrase love at first sight, Yinglong firmly believes that Shiwei is a perfect girl.
From the first time they met, Shiwei made him feel irresistibly attractive.
It is probably between the opposite sexes who favor each other, an invisible gravitational pull that draws them together.
Yinglong felt that Shiwei was like a magnet full of mysterious gravity, firmly attaching him to Shiwei's side.
At least after walking with her, Yinglong no longer feels bored walking alone.
When he walked side by side with Shiwei, he would always notice Shiwei's dark brown eyes, which made him feel that those eyes were clear and warm, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, bringing him the light he had not seen for a long time.
Yinglong often sighs alone that his lonely soul will no longer wander in the empty wilderness, let alone howl like a lone wolf, bound under suffocating shackles.
Yinglong thinks he's found a harbor where he can live temporarily.
Here, he felt safe, could feel the warm breath, and let him capture the breath of his soul
Breath and comfort. Therefore, Yinglong often prayed to the night sky, "I hope that such days can be longer, and I can walk with Shiwei in the future and walk the road of life together." ”
But Shiwei sometimes finds Yinglong looking preoccupied, which can't help but feel strange, but she often comforts Yinglong, she knows that Yinglong can't think about some things, and his heart is not as clear as when he jokes.
Shi Wei's soft words and warm eyes slowly moistened Yinglong's once-cold heart, allowing Yinglong, under her comfort, to put the long-frozen and scarred heart into a slowly rising breath, instantly igniting the flame of hope.
So Yinglong simply put aside his pessimism and disappointment, and was even willing to stay in this land for Shiwei, a gentle and lovely girl.
He often prays silently in the middle of the night, whether it is now or in the future, he is willing to walk hand in hand with Shiwei and spend the days to come.
But Yinglong didn't know if his wish would come true, because he was just a college student now, a student who had not yet been able to earn a living.
So he would often be skeptical, asking Shiwei what she thought and what she planned for the future.
But Shiwei was noncommittal, and at this time, it was still too early to think about those profound questions, and it would not be too late for another two years.
Yinglong was not satisfied with Shiwei's answer, but Shiwei didn't want to say too much, so Yinglong couldn't help it.
But he also understands that there is still a long way to go in the future, but he doesn't know what Shiwei thinks.
Yinglong does not know how to complete the unknown journey in the future, many people and things, like duckweed in the pool, always under the passage of the waves, occasionally together, and then then separated.
Yinglong often jokes with Shiwei, people are too much like duckweed, they always get together and break up, but are he and Shiwei just like these two duckweeds?
Shiwei just smiled at this: "Are you the life of duckweed? Don't despise yourself too much!"
Yinglong can only explain that they didn't meet by chance, but he can't know if they will be separated after graduation.
When Shiwei heard Yinglong say this, a cloud rose in her heart, but she hurriedly hid her throbbing, smiled and said, "How do you know what will happen in the future now, let's talk about the future later." As long as you live in this world, can't you see each other?"
Sitting alone in front of the window, Yinglong inevitably thought about these questions, he wanted to know the answers, but he couldn't know the results in the present, because he couldn't travel to the future to know the answers.
Yinglong had no choice but to think that he didn't know the result, and maybe Shiwei didn't know either.
Now he just wants to have this short but precious time now, to get to know each other, and share each other's joys, sorrows, and sorrows.
The future is still unknown for them, and university life is not a very long time, and perhaps it will come to an end in the blink of an eye in the flow of time.
They can't easily unveil the mystery of the future for the time being, so they can only let time reveal all the answers!
Yinglong enjoys happy moments in his time with Shiwei, and in his eyes, Shiwei is always so playful and sometimes very silent.
One day Yinglong and Shiwei met on the path, Yinglong asked Shiwei: "Shiwei, I don't know if you have any ideas, what will happen to us after graduation?"
Yinglong's expression looked a little melancholy, with a little unease.
Shiwei was a little surprised when she heard Yinglong say this, "Why do you ask this question, but I don't know what will happen in the future? And I don't even know where I will go after graduation, so how can I answer you?"
Shi Wei looked at Yinglong's somewhat melancholy eyes, she understood that Yinglong must be very concerned about her future whereabouts, but at this moment, Shi Wei couldn't give Yinglong a clear answer.
"But haven't you thought about it?"
Yinglong is not at ease.
"I don't know, Yinglong, it's too early for you to ask this, after all, we haven't graduated yet, you'll know when the time comes, don't ask now." ”
Shiwei lowered the ends of her hair, looked at the ground, and took a few steps.
Yinglong felt a little anxious in his heart when he saw that Shiwei did not answer clearly.
"Shiwei, why, aren't we together after graduation?"
Shiwei raised her head and looked at Yinglong with a bit of dazedness in her eyes.
"Yinglong, I'm not saying that we're not together, I just want to tell you, I don't know what will happen in the future, don't be too anxious. ”
Yinglong stopped and stared at Shiwei in front of him.
"Shiwei, do you not have faith in our future?"
Shiwei lowered her eyes, was silent, and lowered her eyebrows with a wisp of green silk.
Yinglong looked a little uneasy.
"Shiwei, you say!"
He took a few steps closer, took Shiwei's hand and said.
Shiwei let Yinglong hold her little hand, and Yinglong squeezed Shiwei's fingers a little white with a little force.
"Don't hold on so tightly, it hurts!"
Shiwei shook her hand, trying to break free of Yinglong's hands.
"Shiwei, I'm sorry, I'm too anxious, I hurt you, right?"
Yinglong saw that Shiwei was a little displeased, and hurriedly let go of Shiwei's slender fingers.
"Yinglong, it's not that I don't want to, it's not that I don't have confidence, but what will happen in the future, I really don't know. ”
Shiwei looked at Yinglong and said very seriously, with a glint in her dark pupils.
Yinglong couldn't help but be a little disheartened when he saw Shiwei answer like this, he hesitated for a while and took Shiwei's hand and said, "Shiwei, I know it's a little anxious for you to answer these questions now, but I'm serious, I really like you, I don't want to break up with you after graduation, do you understand?"
After speaking, Yinglong pulled Shiwei forward a few steps.
Shiwei hung her forehead and was pulled by Yinglong to the grass in front.
They came to an open meadow, with a large dirt pit underneath, but not very high above the ground, with a few small trees growing at the bottom of the pit and a row of buildings in the distance.
Shiwei and Yinglong sat on the grass, their legs hanging on the edge of the pit, Yinglong stared at the buildings in the distance, and Shiwei stared at the trees at the bottom of the pit in a daze.
Yinglong saw that Shiwei didn't say a word, and knew that the topic just now might be a little urgent, he was too eager for Shiwei to answer his question, but they were still students and didn't know where they would go in the future, and Shiwei was just a girl, how could she give him a guarantee.
Besides, there are many variables in the future, how could Shiwei be clear about those at this time, and Yinglong is not clear about his future plans, he only knows that he will find a job after graduation, but he is not very clear about the arrangements after work.
But what did Shiwei think, Yinglong looked at Shiwei beside him, at a loss.
"Shiwei, will we still be together after graduation?"
Yinglong asked Shiwei cautiously.
"Yinglong, I want to be with you, but I don't know where I will go after graduation, so how do you want me to answer you?"
Shiwei whispered, turning her head to look at Yinglong, a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Yinglong looked at Shiwei and felt that the smile on her face had a hint of mystery, but since Shiwei said that she wanted to be with him, but she didn't know where she would go in the future, Yinglong understood that Shiwei was actually very helpless.
He sighed slightly, "Shiwei, it's not like I want to force you, it's just that I really don't want to part with you." ”
As he spoke, Yinglong approached Shiwei's face, reached her earburns, and kissed her gently.
Yinglong smelled the fragrance of Shiwei's sideburns, which was both fresh and good.
And Shiwei's cheeks turned red all of a sudden, her eyes just looked at the grass on the ground, and her lips were tightly pursed.
At this moment, Yinglong's heart was like stepping over.
He stretched out his arms and tried to hold Shiwei in his arms, but Shiwei blushed and gently pushed Yinglong's arm away in a reserved manner.
"Don't do that, it's outside, someone is watching. ”
Yinglong saw that Shiwei resisted his embrace, with a little disappointment, and swept his eyes to the path not far away, but there were a few students walking towards him, they looked at the two people sitting on the grass with curious eyes, and walked over with a surprised face.
Yinglong had no choice but to keep his head down with Shiwei down, avoiding the eyes of those students, like a pair of children who had done something wrong, waiting for the adults to criticize.
When the footsteps of those people faded away, Yinglong straightened up, grabbed Shiwei's fingers, and held them gently.
A few drops of sweat oozed from Shiwei's palm, and Yinglong quietly wiped the sweat away and rubbed it between his fingers.
"You're sweating. ”
Yinglong whispered.
"Well, it's a little hot. ”
Shiwei replied with a shy look.
A breeze blew through Shiwei's soft hair, and she raised her hand to wrap it around her ear.
"Shiwei, let's go over there, it's cooler there. ”
Yinglong pointed to a concrete pavement in the distance, where there was a row of cement benches where several students were sitting in the shade.
Shi Wei glanced at it, pursed her rosy lips and whispered, "Don't go, there are a lot of people there, it's quieter here, let's sit here." ”
"Shiwei, do you like the song "Spend Together"?"
Yinglong smiled and looked at Shiwei.
""Spend Together", well, I like it more, it's pretty good. ”
Shiwei curled the corners of her mouth beautifully.
"I like this song the most, I think the lyrics are pretty good, can I bring my Walkman to listen to it when I have time?"
Yinglong said with a smile that he had a Walkman who could listen to the tape, but he hadn't brought it with him, but since Shiwei liked to listen to it, he planned to bring the Walkman from home after a while and listen to the song together.
"Yinglong, you have a Walkman, lend me to listen to it when the time comes, I haven't listened to a song for a long time. ”
Shiwei was very happy, since Yinglong had such a fun thing, she would simply borrow it and listen to it.
"Shiwei, okay then, I'll prepare more batteries when the time comes, and I'll lend you back to listen to it. ”
Yinglong replied cheerfully, and Shiwei happily patted Yinglong's knee and reached out to hold his arm.
When night fell, Yinglong sent Shiwei back to the dormitory to rest.
