CHAPTER XXXIV

The stars are dotted and the lights are shining.

Su Qingjia tried to blink her eyes to make her vision clear, and the young man's sincere confession hit her heart, and tears rolled down.

Carlos's chest was constantly heaving, and the tattoo on his left chest stood out under the boy's fair skin.

", Su Qingjia", the first half is Spanish, the second half is Chinese, the black mark is still very distinct, it has just been tattooed.

Carlos stared at her and said slowly:

"Bella, I know I'm not good enough, I'm not good enough, I still have a lot of bad, but I will grow tall, I will become strong, I will learn Chinese well, I will practice Chinese characters well, I will learn to draw beautiful little portraits for you."

"Even though I don't know what kind of person you're going to like in the future, I'll try to be what you like, I don't go to nightclubs, I don't smoke, I don't fight with people, I don't go to stilt classes, I don't gamble; I'll take care of my hair so that it doesn't look like a bird's nest, I'll take care of the pothos you give me and make it come alive, I'll try to listen to piano music and try to understand music......"

"Maybe after five years, you don't like me, and that's okay, because I'm not the best choice for you; Maybe after ten years, you don't like me, and that's okay, because I can't give you the best life yet; Maybe after twenty years, you don't like me, and that's okay, because I'm starting to grow old and not worthy of you; Maybe after fifty years, you don't like me, it's okay, this time I'll be with you, because you're also starting to get older, and those who love you will leave you, but I've always loved you. ”

"I don't know what China looks like, I don't know what America looks like, but I know, Bella, no matter where you are, in my heart, you will always be the most beautiful."

Su Qingjia tried her best to restrain her tears and prevent them from continuing to flow, but her heart was like a huge opening that she couldn't fill.

Carlos approached her step by step, his shadow slowly lengthened under the light, "Bella, I can't speak, I often do wrong things to make you angry, I'm not smart enough, I always trouble you to help me with tutoring, I know that sometimes I'm too naΓ―ve and immature, but I'll get rid of all my bad habits for you." ”

Su Qingjia was gently held in his arms, she could feel the heat of his chest, the beating red heart intertwined with the cicadas in the dark night-her ear was pressed to her left chest, and she seemed to hear the heart say to her-

", Su Qingjia.

"This is the first time I've hugged you without your permission, I hope you don't get angry." Carlos quickly let go of his hand, he lowered his head, and there was a broken shadow in his eyes, "Bella, go back and rest, I wish you a happy time in the United States." ”

Carlos saw that she had no intention of leaving, and reached out to pull her shirt again, "Look at me, I'm making you cry again, it's cold at night, don't catch a cold, let's go, I'm here to watch you go." ”

"Will you come and see me off tomorrow?" Su Qingjia choked.

The little golden retriever smiled brightly, and seemed to be very lonely, "Of course, I will definitely send you." I'll be the first to pick you up the day you come back. Let's go, it's not too early. ”

Su Qingjia turned around, the intertwined shadows of the two were separated, and when she walked to the door, Su Qingjia looked back again, and the young man smiled and waved at her.

At the beginning of October, a heavy rain washed away the heat of Barcelona, and the plane trees were as green as soldiers as they were in a farewell gift.

At Amprat Airport, the flight to the United States is about to take off, and Su Qingjia is going through the security check.

"Bella, what are you looking at?" Mingling looked at her daughter who had been looking back and asked.

She was about to board the plane, but the person she was waiting for hadn't come yet, she shook her head at Ming Ling and said, "It's nothing, I'll just take a look, it will be a long time before I can see it." ”

Su Jingkang stroked Su Qingjia's long hair and said, "Mom and Dad will often go to see you if they have time, don't worry, even if Dad is not available, Mom will definitely accompany you." ”

"Baby, don't think so, isn't there still a holiday? You can come back during the holidays, and your mother will make you your favorite food, okay? Ming Ling squatted down, her smile was beautiful, but the redness and swelling of her eyes still exposed her feelings.

Louis comforted the couple for a while: "It's okay, can't you trust me?" I'll take good care of Bella, she'll be fine in the United States, don't worry. If it's a holiday, I'll bring her back, and then I won't be able to miss my meal. ”

Su Jingkang nodded yes and said, "Then I can only ask you, Bella is still so young, alas." ”

The airport radio has sounded, and Su Qingjia and Luis must go.

Ming Ling and Su Jingkang waved to them, and the tears of parting finally rolled down.

Su Qingjia looked back again, there were many people picking up and dropping off the airport, but she never found the one she was looking for, she collected her thoughts, she waved to her parents, and walked out with Louis.

"Bella, wait, wait a minute, Bella-" Carlos' voice came from the entrance, and Su Qingjia turned his head sharply.

The boy's blonde hair was a little messy, he was sweating a lot, his cheeks were crimson, speed was his advantage, and in a short time he ran to the side of the railing.

"Bella, wait, just a moment, just a moment, okay?" He pleaded with Su Qingjia while panting.

With Louis's permission, Su Qingjia quickly ran over, "Carlos, you're finally here." ”

Carlos smiled weakly, he handed the cup in his hand, and said, "I promised to come and send it to you." Bella, can you grant me a small request? ”

"What requirements?" Su Qingjia took the cup and said.

"This is the water I got from the Fountain of Canaretes, Bella, can you drink it?" The boy's voice was full of anticipation, and even though he was tired, his eyes still burst with a bright look.

Su Qingjia knows the story - there is a magical fountain called Canaleste on the side of PlaΓ§a Catalunya, and legend has it that anyone who drinks the water there will definitely return to Barcelona in his lifetime.

Su Qingjia's eyes were a little wet, she lowered her head and opened the water cup, drank all the spring water in one go, and then returned the cup to Carlos, "I'll be back, definitely, I promise you." ”

Luis began to urge her, Su Qingjia looked into his eyes and said, "Carlos, goodbye, I wish you more and more awesome, and your dreams come true." ”

The blonde boy's ears were a little red, like a small red fan swaying, "Well, I will, Bella, and I wish you all the best." He slipped a letter into Su Qingjia's hand, then took a few steps back and waved at her, "Goodbye, Bella." ”

On the plane, Su Qingjia opened the letter, and there was only one photo inside, which was a photo of Carlos' chest tattoo, and the black and white color formed an extreme impact. Su Qingjia put the photo in his backpack and picked it up with a book.

*

After returning from the airport, Carlos went to Columbus Square for a long time, where he bought something to feed the flocks of seagulls by the pier, some of which pecked at some food and flew away, while others were bold enough to continue pecking.

It was from here that Columbus set out to go to the New World, the Americas, and Carlos knew that the United States was on the other side of the sea, but he sat here and watched for a long time, and the end of the skyline was always so calm.

He pressed his hand to his left chest to feel his heartbeat, and the tattoo was slightly hot.

Before Bella left, he went to Las Ramblas alone, where bards and performers were still tirelessly showing their character to passers-by, wandering singers playing guitars in the alleys of the streets, and the classic old song "Mumucho" was rearranged.

Outside the bar, a young man who had drunk a lot of cold beer professed his love to the beautiful girl, who blushed excitedly and agreed. Together, they walked into a tattoo parlor and got a couple tattoo.

Carlos suddenly had an inexplicable impulse.

In the midst of the guitarist's singing, he also walked into the tattoo parlor and asked the tattoo artist if he could tattoo a sentence for him, and the tattoo artist smiled and agreed.

After taking a shower, he was taken to the place where the tattoo was made, where he wrote down the contents of the tattoo on paper and taught it to the tattoo artist.

The tattoo artist asked him what the text in the back meant, and he sued the tattoo artist that it was the name of the girl he liked, and the tattoo artist smiled and said, I guess too.

After the detoxification, the skilled tattoo artist began to control the machine, and the tattoo needle made a pinhole on his body, and the black ink was poured into the skin, which was a little painful and a little cold.

The tune of "Mumuch" was still repeating, and he could only hear a little bit of music, and then hummed along with it in his heart.

The tattoo caused a lot more pain than he had imagined, but Carlos felt that the qiΔ“ was worth it.

While learning Chinese, the black-haired girl told him that her name came from a Chinese poem, and although he didn't understand it, he tried to memorize it.

In Chinese, the passage reads, "Heavy lakes stacked with Qingjia, there are three autumn laurels, ten miles of lotus." ”

Bella sues sΓΉ him, Qingjia means good.

As she spoke, Bella sat in front of the window of the small classroom, looking beautifully like a painting. He felt that Bella's name was so good, so good, really like her.

He thought that even if the lotus flowers bloomed in the summer, the fragrance of the laurel trees in the autumn would not be as beautiful as Bella's.

Before he knew it, the tattoo had been tattooed, and the tattoo artist wiped the blood from his chest and washed off the excess paint.

Five days later, the tattoo was completely healed, and Carlos couldn't wait any longer to find his dark-haired doll.

He wanted her to see his tattoos and see his love for her.

The night breeze was cool, but he didn't feel cold at all when he was only wearing a coat.

He unzips it and reveals his heart to the girl he loves.

The first time he held the girl recklessly, he pressed her ear to his left chest, tears on his skin, hot like a fireball.

He wanted her to hear his heart and feel his fiery sincerity.

I tattooed you in my heart, I put you in my heart.
