Chapter 12 There is neither wind nor rain nor sunshine
"You said it before!"
Du Chen was stunned.
He didn't expect that a sentence he said when his head was still confused back then would really be written down by Zhong Mengyao.
"I've already told my mom that I'm going to study in France. During the summer vacation, my mom helped me find a French teacher and an English teacher, and although I wasn't sure if I could learn it, I wanted to give it a try. β
Zhong Mengyao's voice was calm, as if she was telling about something that had nothing to do with her. But Du Chen could hear that in Zhong Mengyao's heart, there was still a hope.
Even if the hope is small, small.
Du Chen nodded, with a smile on his face, picked up the milk tea and took a sip, but he didn't know what to say.
"Du Chen, although I don't know why I am like this, and I don't know when I have been, I have taken every word you said to heart."
"After school that day, you seem to have changed from an ignorant teenager to a deep and introverted adult. Every word I wanted to say, every meaning I wanted to express to you, you seemed to know in advance, and I held all the words in my heart. β
"That night, my mother talked to me for a long time and talked to me a lot. But at that time, there was only one sentence in my head, is it that after I study abroad, you will feel different about me. β
Speaking of this, Zhong Mengyao's voice was a little choked, although she tried her best to endure it, but Qing XΓΉ said no to Zhong Mengyao's patience.
Tears were already rolling in her eyes, Zhong Mengyao pursed her lips vigorously, her eyes did not blink, for fear that when she blinked, the tears would flow, so that she would be out of control.
But when I calmed down, I realized that we are actually at an age when we don't know how to love, and what my mother said is very right. In the hazy age of our youth, the love we think in our hearts is not love, at best it is love. β
"Like and love are two very different words, maybe when I understand what likes and what loves, I will laugh at how stupid I am now."
"Du Chen, I like you, this is a sentence I hold in my heart."
"Du Chen, let's be friends, very good, very good, very good girlfriend!"
Zhong Mengyao stretched out her hand to look at Du Chen, and the tears in her eyes had long since disappeared. Not only that, but the sadness has completely disappeared from the face and is hidden in an unknown corner. In its place, there is a smile as beautiful as a flower.
Du Chen was stunned, his mind was red and white.
shook the milk tea cup in his hand vigorously, and at this moment he finally understood that Zhong Mengyao seemed to be joking back then.
"If you hadn't rushed out of the classroom after school that day, maybe your current girlfriend would be me."
A joke that Du Chen didn't take seriously at all at that time, and finally became the dust of history, gradually buried in the memories of the two people. One gradually forgets, the other buries deep in the bottom of the heart, never showing others.
Du Chen stretched out his hand, grabbed the right hand that was parked in the air, and pursed his somewhat chapped lips.
Raising his head, Du Chen looked at Zhong Mengyao's eyes, at this moment, in Zhong Mengyao's eyes, Du Chen saw firmness, saw determination, and saw goodbye!
"Meng Yao, you must be a very outstanding person. My dream may seem ridiculous to others, but thank you for believing in me. If one day we meet again, I hope you can be someone I look up to. β
This is the first girl to confess to herself in two lifetimes, but this girl is an old friend who has known each other for more than 20 years.
Zhong Mengyao, who was across the table, smiled like a flower, if she had done it all over again, maybe both of them would make the same choice.
Whether it is Du Chen or Zhong Mengyao, they are not people who can't let go. Du Chen has always believed that it is absolutely impossible to be friends after a breakup. If two people really become friends, there is only one reason why they don't love deeply enough.
If you want to reluctantly start a relationship that doesn't see the result, it's better to end the relationship before it starts. Du Chen made such a choice, and Zhong Mengyao also made the same choice.
"I don't have to hold some words in my heart, it's good to say them."
Zhong Mengyao let out a long breath, fanned the wind with her hand vigorously, and the fine sweat on her forehead fully explained what Zhong Mengyao said just now, how much courage she needed to muster.
A smile appeared on the corner of Du Chen's mouth, and he looked at Zhong Mengyao with interest.
Zhong Mengyao was a little shy by Du Chen's slightly aggressive eyes, and asked a little embarrassedly, "Why do you look at me like this!" β
Du Chen smiled, took a sip of milk tea, and a sentence floated softly in his mouth.
"Oh Mengyao, I really can't see it, it turns out that you have always had a crush on me. Tell me, when exactly did you get started? β
Zhong Mengyao's originally somewhat restored face immediately turned red, her eyes widened, and her two cheeks bulged slightly, hoping that she could beat Du Chen into the cracks of the ground.
Du Chen!! Are you enough!! β
As mentioned above, the ignorant love of youth eventually came to fruition, and love turned into friendship.
In fact, no matter how many times Du Chen chooses, he will still choose the current ending. Whether it was the ignorance of the previous life or the thoughtfulness of this life, it did not change Du Chen's final choice.
Some love is born when the flowers bloom, beautiful and delicate, but it can't escape the tempering of the storm.
Some cacti that love grows in the desert are not good-looking, and they are also easily injured. But this kind of love is the strongest love.
No matter how deep the love is, how strong the affection, in the end, it still comes down to firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
It is true that love has a shelf life, but Du Chen feels that love is just an extension of family affection, and in the end, love still has to become a part of family affection. When love really becomes family affection, it is the most beautiful to go hand in hand to see the sunset at every dusk.
Looking at Zhong Mengyao's distant back, Du Chen was silent for a long time.
"Thank you."
The voice was so soft that maybe even Du Chen himself couldn't hear it.
Zhong Mengyao walked away step by step, and her blurred back finally turned into a black dot and gradually disappeared into the distance.
Touching his heart, Du Chen felt for the first time what it was like to reject a person who couldn't refuse, maybe time will give everyone the best proof. And Zhong Mengyao's last sentence may be able to draw a symbol of expectation for the future.
"Du Chen, I will come back to you in four years, I hope what I will see when the time comes, it will not be your regretful expression~hehe~"
Goodbye, Zhong Mengyao!
Goodbye, love that is too late to set sail!
Goodbye, youth never caught!
The spring breeze blows the wine and wakes up,
slightly cold,
The hill is obliquely illuminated but welcomed.
Looking back at the bleak place,
Return
There is neither wind nor rain nor sunshine.
