Chapter 41: How can you not be brave
The big empty house, the pale white light is like fog, and the sky blue curtains are like the sea.
"You're here." Gu Man said with a smile.
"Yes, I'm here." Chen Feng nodded vigorously.
The longing is very strong, and the greeting is very light; It's not that I don't want to say it, it's that I want to say too much, but I don't know where to start.
"Grandpa Zhou didn't embarrass you, he, with a knife mouth and a tofu heart, is actually a very good person." Gu Man said, stretched out his hand, and gently rubbed it on Chen Feng's face.
Her hands were cold, white without much blood, but her cheeks were a strange flush.
"You're not having a good time." Chen Feng looked at Gu Man distressedly, his voice hoarse and low.
"It's not good, but it's not bad either." As if he didn't want Chen Feng to worry, Gu Man made a playful grimace and said with a smile: "Now I can be regarded as realizing my childhood dream, living like a little princess, carefree, and having whatever I want." ”
Chen Feng squeezed out a smile and listened quietly; Seeing this, Gu Man smiled even more happily, and kept talking excitedly.
“…… Look, this is DSN's limited edition bear doll, I've always wanted one since I was a child, but unfortunately my parents didn't let me buy it, and now it's so much older, someone will give it to me...... And this, Master Cornet's handwritten manuscript, me and my stars, when I was in junior high school, I still remember that I published a post-reading ......"
As Gu Man spoke, the joy on his face gradually faded, replaced by a lonely look.
Those were all very good, but she didn't like them.
What she likes is the familiar Jiangcheng; The room that was neither big nor small, decorated by herself, her friends, mothers, lovers......
However, she can't go back to those beautiful things in the past.
Chen Feng took Gu Man into his arms and hugged him hard, he could feel Gu Man trembling slightly, like a frightened little animal, helpless and desperate.
Gradually, Gu Man calmed down and lay quietly on Chen Feng's chest.
"You shouldn't have come," she whispered, grumbling, "I've learned to forget why you came." ”
"I just wanted to come and meet you." Chen Feng's nose was sour.
"I know, I want to see you too," Gu Man smiled bitterly: "What can I do if I see it?" The road was chosen by myself, Grandpa Zhou should have told you that I was leaving, you might, may never see me again. ”
"I," Chen Feng choked up and couldn't speak.
He's not a teenage kid, so he doesn't cry out and "I'm not going to let you go"; He experienced all this soberly and powerlessly, and engraved that pain in the depths of his heart.
A trace of unbearability flashed in Gu Man's eyes, her hand pressed on Chen Feng's lips, and said softly: "Don't talk about those unhappy things, okay." ”
"It's hard to see each other, I don't want to do that." She feigned anger.
"Don't say it, don't say it." Chen Feng hurriedly shook his head, he hurriedly cleaned up those messy emotions and forced himself to be happy.
"Come with me to see the stars." Gu Man proposed.
"Okay."
Under the starry sky, they snuggled together, pointing at the starry sky, talking and laughing.
"Do you want to hear a story?" Chen Feng looked at Gu Man, and such a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, and asked.
"I want to hear it." Gu Man replied sweetly.
"Do you remember those swans in the Jiang Garden? The protagonist of this story is a swan, but at the beginning of the story, he is just an ugly duckling. ”
Chen Feng slowly told about the fairy tales that existed but were not passed down.
They imply perseverance, bravery, and self-confidence...... He only hopes that these beautiful fairy tales can replace him and accompany Gu Man on the long and arduous road.
…… Snow White, Daughter of the Sea, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty......
The last fairy tale he said was Dragon Quest.
The beautiful princess is captured by the evil dragon, and the brave knight takes up the sword and embarks on the journey; The knight overcomes obstacles and finally saves the princess.
This story is really simple compared to those fairy tales......
Chen Feng put his mouth to Gu Man's ear and said softly: "My princess is so beautiful, how can I not be brave." ”
When Gu Man heard this, tears finally flowed uncontrollably.
After the story was told, the night was late, and the cool breeze hit people, Chen Feng helped Gu Man into the room.
Counting the time, it was time for him to leave.
……
"Teacher, my friend ......" Li Wenxiu respectfully poured tea for Zhou Changming.
"Nothing to do, I know all your careful thoughts, this is an agreement between me and him, don't get involved." Zhou Changming shook his head: "However, that young man is indeed very good; It's a good thing that you can befriend him. ”
"When I knew him, I didn't know how good he was." Li Wenxiu said with a smile, he knows a lot of excellent people, but he has few friends.
And friends are undoubtedly much more precious.
When Zhou Changming heard this, he smiled and said, "That's your business, I'm just a passerby." ”
An old and a young, a teacher and an apprentice, are engaged in a didactic dialogue, and there seems to be some kind of bond between them, but it is not that deep.
"That's all for today, I'm tired, it's time to rest." Zhou Changming waved his hand and gave the order to evict the guests.
"Yes, Teacher." Li Wen made a salute and was about to leave, but he suddenly thought of one thing and asked worriedly: "The two of them, lonely men and widows, will not ...... if they live in the same room."
"Hmph, rude." Zhou Changming said, "I know very well what kind of person Chen Feng is, he won't do that." ”
Under Zhou Changming's angry gaze, Li Wenxiu fled in a hurry.
This "legend" has a very accurate vision of people, Chen Feng is not a righteous man and a gentleman who is clean and self-conscious, but he is also a principled person, and he will never go beyond it before he has the confidence to shoulder his responsibilities.
It's just that.
Gu Man took Chen Feng's hand, his eyes were calm and resolute, just like the shore of Jiangyuan Lake.
"Don't do this, we," Chen Feng pulled out his hand and persuaded.
"Last time, you were like this," Gu Man's face became gloomy, and he said coldly, "You've already been a coward once, do you want to escape again?" ”
"No, I can't yet," Chen Feng explained in a panic.
"Stop quibbling," Gu Man shouted uncontrollably: "Didn't you say you should be brave, since you have already said that, why don't you even dare to touch me?" Are you afraid in your heart, afraid that you will never be able to trace my footsteps in the future, afraid that I will marry another woman in the future? Or do you ......"
Gu Man threw himself into Chen Feng's arms, questioning hysterically, Chen Feng looked at her with distress on his face, and kept saying sorry, and under repeated questioning, the standard he adhered to in his heart also faltered.
Gu Man quieted down, her face showed the cunning of the successful scheme, she smiled charmingly, stood on tiptoe, and took the initiative to kiss Chen Feng again.
Her movements are clumsy, but wild.
This was a fatal blow, which aroused the most primitive impulse in Chen Feng's heart, and he picked up Gu Man sideways and laid him on the couch gently.
The night was long.
