Chapter 1429: Tokyo Aftermath (6)
Behind the door that Cheng Xiaoyu couldn't see, the lights were dim, and the violin box containing the Dawn Star stood quietly in the corner, Pei Yanchen leaned against the thin wooden door, as if he was separated from Cheng Xiaoyu by a distant galaxy. (BGM - "The Pain of Breathing" Liang Jingru)
Seeing that Pei Yanchen didn't answer for a long time, Cheng Xiaoyu knocked on the door again and said, "Senior sister, I really need to have a good chat with you, we are under the same roof, we don't look up and see you down, it's not a way for you to ignore me like this?"
Pei Yanchen leaned against the door, biting his lip, not saying a word, his hands were still trembling slightly.
God knows how much Pei Yanchen looks forward to the day when she can live under the same roof as Cheng Xiaoyu, but when this day comes, she finds that it is cruel to be within reach, but not to be touched.
Cheng Xiaoyu knocked on the door for the third time and said, "Senior sister..... If you have to do this, you are forcing me to move out, and I am not kidding....."
After thinking for a moment, this time, Pei Yanchen finally turned around and opened the door a crack, revealing her cold and silent face, she pretended to look at Cheng Xiaoyu's eyes calmly and said lightly: "If you persuade me to go back, don't say it...."
Cheng Xiaoyu saw that Pei Yanchen finally opened the door, and breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "It's not to persuade you to go back, but to discuss ......" Seeing Pei Yanchen's expressionless face, Cheng Xiaoyu said with a slightly bitter expression: "At least you want to give me a chance to have a good chat with you, right?"
Pei Yanchen looked at the concern and worry in Cheng Xiaoyu's eyes, and finally couldn't let her heart down, she turned her head and glanced at Su Yuxi's room next to her, the door was open, so she pushed the door and walked out, slightly amplified the volume and said, "Let's go up to the balcony!"
Cheng Xiaoyu said "yes" and turned around and walked to the balcony, Pei Yanchen followed behind Cheng Xiaoyu, through the living room, dining room, and kitchen.
Standing on the seventeenth floor of an apartment in Nippori, the two of them looked out over the dissipating sunset, quiet in the distance, lights shining in the distance, and the occasional plane gliding across the starry sky with dappled points of light.
The evening breeze is like a naughty child, swaying Pei Yanchen's long hair, she leans on the railing and stares quietly into the depths of the night, although her face is light, her cheeks are not rouge at all, but it is like a green dress with red makeup on the stage, and her bright eyes are like a cappella that will never be extinguished.
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't wear a wig or makeup because he didn't go out for a day, so he and Pei Yanchen looked like a pair of good people, but from the gap between the two people, you can see four words - fate is inseparable.
Cheng Xiaoyu can be regarded as ill-fated, and Su Yuxi can't help but be sad, and having a fate with Pei Yanchen is sad.
Cheng Xiaoyu looked sideways at Pei Yanchen, and his thoughts were confused in the flowers for a while before he spoke: "The night here is so beautiful, different from Shanghai's, Shanghai's lights are not so dense, and they are not as chaotic as Tokyo, Tokyo is orderly in chaos, and Shanghai's night scene is much more regular, if neon is Van Gogh's "Starry Night", then Shanghai should be "Starry Night on the Rhône", for me, because although Shanghai is a little mechanical, it retains too many warm memories, and Tokyo is too magical, just like " Starry Night" is generally ....."
Pei Yanchen was silent for a moment and said: "I also prefer "Starry Night on the Rhône", although this one is far less famous than "Starry Night", but as you said, this one is much warmer, maybe because Van Gogh was crazy when he painted "Starry Night", so this painting is only distorted and dizzy..."
Cheng Xiaoyu turned his head and projected Pei Yanchen's gaze towards the distant unattainable starry sky and said: "But when I look at it now, I feel that "Starry Night" is not all about the beauty of distortion and destruction..... If you think about it, it's a painting that is both intimate and distant, considering that the small villages in the valley, sheltered by the steeple churches, keep trembling and fear out of the borders..... This is also a more contrasting beauty, so it is not for nothing that "Starry Night" is more famous than "Starry Night on the Rhône". ”
Pei Yanchen said, "So what?"
Cheng Xiaoyu said: "Senior sister, do you know what 'Nippori' means?"
Pei Yanchen said: "A place where you won't get tired of spending a day here....." Pei Yanchen didn't know much Japanese, but when he checked the address of this place, he got this very warm and sweet information.
Cheng Xiaoyu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Actually, I'm really glad that you can come, and you and Xiaoxi can be under the same roof, let alone a day..... Even if it's for the rest of your life, you won't get tired of it.... But you know, I'm in danger around me, so I have to be that steeple church and watch over everyone around me... Lin Sha has already had an accident with me, if something else happens to you, I really can't redeem it.... And this kind of thing should have been borne by us men .... So, senior sister, I hope you can promise me that after the recital, you will return to Shanghai, and during this period, we will find a way to find the other two prisoners, and you can give Lin Sha an explanation....."
Although Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know the information of those two people, and there were no clues, he knew that Su Yuxi must know, because it was Su Yuxi who asked him to let go of the people trapped in the small black room of the customs that day, and it was obvious that Su Yuxi had reached a deal with the other party.
Pei Yanchen didn't look at Cheng Xiaoyu all the time, just looked at the nothingness in the night, the conditions that Cheng Xiaoyu negotiated with her were also part of the transaction between her and Su Yuxi, and she paid all the hope and fire in her heart for this.
For Pei Yanchen, this may be the last time she gets along with Cheng Xiaoyu, how can she and how can she be willing to leave? So she shook her head and said in a firm tone: "Xiaoyu, I also know that those two people are just murder weapons, and the culprit is the one standing behind the scenes, so ..... If I don't get justice for Duanmu Linsha, I won't leave.... Xiaoyu, there is no need to say much about this matter, don't think too much, and don't be pressured, I didn't stay entirely for you..... I also need peace of mind....."
But Pei Yanchen was thinking in his heart: If you want to be that church, then I am your spire.....
Cheng Xiaoyu looked at Pei Yanchen's side face like ice, and found that the women around him were more stubborn than the other, one more fierce than the other, and extremely confident, which made him very helpless, fortunately, Xia Shamo and Xu Qinning didn't know what was going on yet, if they knew, they would be more lively here.
At this moment, Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know how to convince Pei Yanchen at all, so he could only say with some eagerness: "Senior sister, why are you so stubborn? You still have your mother and younger brother to support, what will they do if something happens to you?"
Pei Yanchen said: "I know you will take better care of them." ”
Cheng Xiaoyu said angrily: "Then what if something happens to me?"
Pei Yanchen turned his head to look at Cheng Xiaoyu under the swirling starry night, and at this moment, the solidified background seemed to have become Van Gogh's canvas, with impasto deep blue, stars in tears, and the most beautiful and solemn promise - "I will never let you have an accident." ”
For Pei Yanchen, love is to endure 10,000 years of lonely practice, seeing that the end is just around the corner, and suddenly meet the person who unswervingly wants to protect, so everything is not important.
(The process of the struggle with the crown prince will not be written very long, most of the foreshadowing is completed in the front, mainly because the sister is extremely intelligent, well! so the finale is coming soon!)
