CHAPTER XXXIV

In the middle of the night, the sea breeze is blowing.

Ling Zesheng and Tong Yan sat on the stone steps not far from the coast, blowing the cold sea breeze, smelling the salty smell escaping in the air, feeling a little cold.

Well, if you drink two sips of beer that is cold in a natural environment, it will be really cold to the heart, and compared to it, Sprite with a "Cool Heart" ad - it is just a joke.

Tong Yan's teeth chattered, glanced at Ling Zesheng, who was sitting next to her with a calm face, and silently pulled the zipper of the down jacket up.

"Cold?" The people around her noticed her small movements and asked softly.

"Hmm" Tong Yan dragged out his breath, moved his fingers that were pinching the frozen cans of beer cans, and pretended to spit out two words calmly: "It's okay." "Actually, how can she say that her ass is frozen and unconscious?

She secretly rubbed and looked at Ling Zesheng, who was looking at the sea in a daze with her hands in her pockets, her long legs folded, and her body leaning forward slightly, and asked tentatively: "Are you cold?" ”

Isn't that nonsense! Ling Zesheng raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head to look at her, and pursed his lower lip: "It's bearable." ”

Bearable!?

What kind of answer is that?!

The corners of Tong Yan's mouth twitched, and he had to stand up, reaching out and tugging at his sleeve: "Go back if it's cold." ”

What she said was commonplace, but because her cold tone was a little more cold and hard, it had a bit of other meanings in Ling Zesheng's ears.

He looked up at the girl in front of him, under the dim light, her skin looked very white, her lips were tightly pursed, she seemed to be a little aggrieved (in fact, Tong Yan was frozen), the hand holding his cuffs was also trembling slightly (in fact, it was also frozen), the tone of what she just spoke was very soft, and what she said was also a declarative tone.

But from Ling Zesheng's point of view, combined with what happened during the day today, Tong Yan's words just now were automatically defined as the little girl's duplicity in his mind, and the correct translation should be as follows-

"I feel uncomfortable and don't want to go back, so it's okay for you to accompany me again."

After coming to this conclusion, Ling Zesheng, who promised to be Tong Yan's brother, naturally wanted to focus on her wishes, so he did not stand up according to Tong Yan's pull on his strength, but held her arm with his backhand, gently tugged it, and let her sit beside him.

"Forget it, let's sit down a little longer. Anyway, it's almost all night, so it's not bad to watch the sunrise by the way. He said.

The corners of Tong Yan's mouth twitched, and his heart began to roar at the same time:, who is brainless to watch the sunrise in winter? And what time is it? Some? Some?

With that in mind, she pulled her phone out of her pocket and glanced at the time on it: 4:19 a.m.

Seeing a few numbers on the mobile phone screen, Tong Yan's heart sounded "hehehe", this Nima will have to wait for at least an hour until sunrise!

"Hurry up and pull Ling Zesheng back to the hotel, it's okay to tie up if you are disobedient!" Her emotions were roaring, and on the other side her reason was admonishing: "No, there is only one hour, then wait a little longer." Besides, being able to be alone with him is amazing! Isn't it just a little frozen, what a big deal~~"

So in the next half a minute, Tong Yan really realized the essence of the lyrics sung by King Zhou: Love is inexplicably pulling

After that, she made a choice-she replied sullenly, then turned around and sat back next to Ling Zesheng, raised her hand and poured herself another sip of wine, a cold breath went down the esophagus from her mouth to her stomach, she shivered, and instantly felt that her whole person was sublimated.

Well, if you do your own death, you have to finish it when you kneel.

――

As the saying goes, no longer erupting in silence, just becoming in silenceState.

So after Tong Yan froze for 10 minutes in front of a dark sea, she felt that she should say something to save the current eerily quiet atmosphere.

"Uh, shouldn't we say something?" Tong Yan asked.

Ling Zesheng turned his head to look at her, "What do you want to say?" ”

How did you throw the question back to her again!

Tong Yan was a little depressed, squinted her eyes and thought about it very seriously, and felt that at this time she should say something about a topic that both of them could participate in, after all, it is best for two people to communicate, but now where can she find a topic that can communicate together?

In addition to Cheng Yuan and Xia Qi, the only people they know together are Yan Jingdong. But to talk about either of these two in such a harmonious atmosphere, just thinking about it will make people feel very ruined

So, what should be done?

Tong Yan is in a dilemma again.

Just when she was entangled in choosing a topic for communication, Ling Zesheng next to her spoke first.

He asked, "What's the matter with that grandson this afternoon?" ”

In fact, thinking of Xu Bolin, he doesn't blame Ling Zesheng, after all, he heard Tong Yan and wanted to say something, and his subconscious reaction was that she wanted to talk to him, so does this count as giving her a chance?

On the other side, Tong Yan was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then quickly reacted to who the "grandson" he was talking about, and she was stunned again, and then she began to seriously consider whether to talk about the topic he threw out.

In fact, after that afternoon episode, now she doesn't think there is anything wrong with Ling Zesheng talking about that black history, after all, he helped her out, right. So she was only quiet for two seconds, and then she told the bloody plots of the year.

Xu Bolin and Tong Yan met because of the student union.

At that time, they were all in the same department, but different departments and different classes. Later, I didn't know what was wrong with Xu Bolin, so I transferred to the Tongyan major, and then I got closer through the relationship between the two in the student union.

During college, basically except for Xia Qi and Cheng Yuan, Tong Yan had the closest relationship with him. But I don't know what the reason is, Xia Qi and Cheng Yuan were not very interested in Xu Bolin after they came into contact with him, so they didn't have much intersection with them, and until they graduated, they only stayed at the stage of acquaintance.

I remember that it seems to have started in the second half semester of my freshman year, and many girls around me have begun to fall in love.

Although Tong Yan doesn't participate much in outside activities, he still occasionally participates in the dormitory's dormitory talks.

It seemed to be a weekend, and Tong Yan remembered that the two girls with boyfriends in the dormitory were not there that day, so the remaining four people in the dormitory began to talk about the mountains after turning off the lights. I don't know who mentioned Xu Bolin, and then Tong Yan was asked as a matter of course.

"Tong Yan, are you in love with Xu Bolin from the next class?"

Tong Yan was shocked when he heard this question, and then subconsciously denied it: "No, we are just friends." ”

"Just friends?" The girl who asked the question obviously didn't believe this answer, so she further verified: "If it's just a friend, why does he sit at the same table with you every time he has a big class?" And I saw you hanging out together? You really have nothing to do with her? ”

Thinking about it now, those childish words at that time were really a little ridiculous, but the Tong Yan at that time was bluffed, she carefully recalled the scenes that her roommate said, even she felt a little wrong, but the shyness of the young girl made her feel very embarrassed to be questioned, so in the end she could only reply with a pale and weak sentence: "Really no, don't talk nonsense!" ”

The roommates laughed when they heard this, made a few random jokes, and skipped the topic and did not continue.

It seems that all the changes started at that time.

Since then, although Tong Yan and Xu Bolin have also gone to class, eat, and go out to play, they have always deliberately kept their distance. Xu Bolin never raised any questions, so their somewhat ambiguous friendship was able to continue.

But time goes on, and many things that you thought were impossible will always change their original appearance with the passage of time.

Tong Yan heard the news that Xu Bolin liked her from many people, and her attitude began to change from fierce justification at the beginning to silent chuckles later. It was also in this subtle change that she even began to hypnotize herself - maybe she also liked Xu Bolin a little bit, right?

No one can give her an accurate answer to this kind of question.

But the only thing she can be sure of is that in her heart, the person who originally belonged to the holy land of love has always been Ling Zesheng, and it has never changed. Even though Ling Zesheng was already a popular student at that time, for Tong Yan, he was her indelible first love in this life, because it was he who inspired and carried all the expectations and fantasies about love in her youth.

It's a pity that Tong Yan at that time clearly knew that with the gap between their identities and time at that time, I am afraid that they will not be able to see each other again in this life, let alone expose her unrealistic thoughts to the sun.

Therefore, according to Tong Yan's thoughts, her love for Ling Zesheng will only be buried in her heart, but in reality, she will be like all ordinary girls, graduate, work, fall in love, get married, and live the most ordinary life.

So, she also began to try to accept Xu Bolin, maybe she could like him?

It was with such fantasies that Tong Yan finished his last year of college, entered the society, and participated in work.

In the first half year of stepping out of the university campus, Tong Yan and Xu Bolin still maintained the way they got along in college, but neither of them explicitly said that they wanted to be together, but in the eyes of each other's colleagues, they were already a couple.

Until one day, this seemingly stable but self-deceiving harmony is broken.

It was Wednesday, and Tong Yan remembers it very clearly. At the time, she had just quit a job from a company and was on a gap period, but she was in no hurry to find a job because she still had a novel in her hand to finish.

When I got up to pour water, I received a text message from a former colleague, there was no text, just a few photos, but these photos were more embarrassing than a thousand words-

In the photo, a pair of men and women are frolicking in the car, with intimate manners, ambiguous atmosphere, and even some indescribable shots appear later.

If it is left in normal times, Tong Yan will chuckle twice at most when he sees such a picture, and then add a comment: Who is so unlucky, Che||Zhen was also secretly photographed.

But if the protagonist in the photo becomes Xu Bolin and his boss, no matter how good her composure is, she still can't help but shake her hands.

Well, you all know the story after that.

Xu Bolin made an appointment with Tong Yan on the night the photo was exposed, and then said something like that-

Tong Yan, I still want to find a girlfriend who can help me

Since then, Tong Yan and Xu Bolin have parted ways, and they have never been in contact with each other, and even when they think about it, they feel ironic and disgusting.

It's just that I didn't expect to be able to bump into each other later, it's really hehe.
