The lights slowly dimmed.

The dark blue of the night sky filled the hall, with only a white patch in the center, shining and long to indicate the focus of people's eyes.

Xu Man under the spotlight, the silhouette of the side is haloed, like a rainbow after the rain, the slightly trembling eyelashes, and the fair skin are covered with a layer of soft light.

Lin Fan followed Gu Yanran to the side of the curtain, Xu Man's voice came out slowly, and while he was shy and grateful, it seemed that something that didn't touch the ground swayed out from the heart of the girl in front of him, and a soft wind swept through.

Every simple moment can also be another person's hottest memory.

The light in the center of the hall seemed to run through Gu Yanran's joys and sorrows almost every day.

A year in the eyes of others is also their countless shadowy, plain and long companionship.

There were a variety of colorful balloons above her head, and her whole body was full of distinct luster, Gu Yanran was the first to walk into the light from the dimness, and a slender blue gift box had already been conjured in her hand, "Happy birthday, it's been four years, Manman." ”

She gently hugged Xu Man.

"Yes." Xu Man's voice was a little choked, and his nose was sour, "Thank you, Yanran." ”

She wrapped her hands around Gu Yanran tightly, and at this moment, and all the time afterward, she would remember those stories about them forever in the deepest and quietest place in her heart.

The host next to him took the cake cart in Lin Fan's hand and motioned for him to come on stage next.

Lin Fan was stunned for a few seconds, only to realize that he had been deceived by Xiao Nizi again, this was not what Gu Yanran said at all, but was designated as a representative who came on stage to give gifts and sensationalism.

Hardened, Lin Fan walked into the spotlight.

These steps under your feet are long and quiet, and when you step on them, they are all singing and creaking of the stars.

"Happy birthday." Lin Fan took out his delicate notebook and touched the back of his head, "My words are a little ugly, don't laugh at me." ”

Poof, Xu Man pulled out of the emotion just now, "Thank you, I like it very much." ”

She took the notebook and flipped it a few times, and smiled playfully, "As the saying goes, words are like people, so I already knew that you were ugly." ”

Gu Yanran on the side laughed in the dim and gave Xu Man a thumbs up, Lin Fan coughed a few times in embarrassment, okay, this time I should treat myself as a comedian, Gu Yanran is responsible for sensationalism, she is responsible for being funny, and the atmosphere is responsible.

"It seems that in order to become more handsome, the plan to practice calligraphy should be put on the agenda." Lin Fan made Lu Xiaofeng's exaggerated signature move, and when he saw that the atmosphere was almost over, he hid into the darkness on the side.

"I didn't expect it, this Lin Fan has such an iron relationship with Xu Man, and he is ranked in Yan and then face, even if the gift is too low-grade." A few girls at the same table with Lin Fan said.

"Taste and grade are there, what do you think he can give?" Li Xiaoting smiled coldly.

"As long as Xu Man likes it, you guys are really dogs and rats." Chen Yifei was originally straightforward and quick-hearted.

"You!" The girls originally wanted to scold back, but when they caught a glimpse of Qiao Haoyu who slowly appeared in the center of the hall, their attention was all attracted to it.

No one can resist Qiao Haoyu's charm, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his whole body exuded a strong aura of aggression, Xu Man lowered his head to avoid his flashing gaze, and no longer thought about that possibility, the crooked words on the notebook just now suddenly jumped into her mind like a talisman.

Approaching, like the last prince's hand in a fairy tale, Qiao Haoyu raised his arm, "It's an honor to meet you at your birthday dinner, my name is Qiao Haoyu." ”

There were black heads all around, only here was a white light.

As if witnessing something important, the surrounding guests were discussing.

"I see, the two old foxes want to convey the signal of Xu Qiao's convergence through the younger generation." Some people seem to have glimpsed the heavens in an instant.

"It's impossible, it's so simple that they are involved in the future." Some people only say half the story.

Some shook their heads and chose to shut up.

Of course, the perspective is different with different ages, and most of the boys and girls at Lin Fan's table are discussing that Qiao Haoyu and Xu Man are not a good match, with envy and jealousy.

After Xu's mother and Xu's father symbolically encouraged Xu Man, the birthday dinner finally came to its ** part.

The sound of the piano sounded slowly like flowing water, and the host slowly walked to the center of the hall with a three-tiered birthday cake filled with candles, and the spotlight hit Xu Man, and everyone took a step back.

The curtains on both sides are like a blue gate, connecting the past and the future, Xu Man took Gu Yanran's hand and walked behind the cake.

The lights went out, and only the bright candlelight reflected the fair and flawless faces of the two bright girls.

The birthday song echoed in the hall, and the streamer reflected in Xu Man's eyes turned into bits and pieces, lines, and three-dimensional memories, standing between the black and white of life, and swimming along the light from nothingness to the moment.

When the singing stopped, Xu Man pinched the back of Gu Yanran's hand and made a final decision.

"Blow out the candles with me." "Okay."

"Make a wish." "Yes."

Xu Man closed his eyes gently, and all the guests held their breath.

The butterflies dancing in spring, the tireless knowledge in summer, the returning geese all the way south in autumn, and the zebra warming alone in winter, they will all know that I once liked you like this.

The breath swept from his chest to his lips, but it cut his heart.

Extinguished, in gentle breathing.

The applause rang out, but the darkness fell abruptly, for a second, two seconds, three seconds......

Lin Fan suddenly felt something strange.

"Be careful!" The sudden screams around him made Lin Fan tremble.

Before he could react, a strong gust of wind hit him.

Lin Fan's heart beat wildly, and a fear that he had never felt before hit his heart.

Huge shadows fell from above, and with a howling wind, they fell violently to the ground.

Boom, the silver bottle burst at once, and the sound of shattering was like an explosion, Lin Fan's pupils suddenly widened, and his body trembled involuntarily, one meter in front of him, where the spotlight was shining just now, where Xu Man and Gu Yanran were side by side!

His surroundings were blurred by the edges in the darkness, and all he could feel and discern disappeared into the cold air around him, except for the glass shards splashing around him, everything else, his breath was lost, his heartbeat was covered in noise, his body was stirred by ignorance and some cruel possibility.

There is no sound, but so many silent movements come together, and the silence becomes sound.

In the deafening silence, Lin Fan's throat seemed to be stuck by something, tearing him painfully, and his uncontrollable body trembled like that, in the bright red darkness and noisy silence.
