Chapter 33: Too late to say goodbye (Part II)
The playground was quiet, and although you could hear the bursts of singing, applause and cheers coming from the classroom, it was also diluted by the night around it, and it seemed distant.
Liu Relative walked on the weeping willow-covered road, his mood gradually calmed down, and some of the glitz around him seemed to be out of his body, he didn't think about anything, just walked casually.
There was already the chirping of crickets in the grass all around, which was especially nice in this slightly hot summer night, the low hill outside the wall had become a black patch, standing like a monster in the night, and the railway bridge not far away occasionally had a train full of coal passing by, the sound of snorting was like an old cow, and the distance was already dark, and the night was red without neon reflection.
This is the world of the early summer night in 95, although it is noisy and monotonous, but it is very clean, just like this clean night sky, you can also see the drifting clouds and the starry sky.
Liu Zhao sat under the shadow wall at the school gate, where the cheers and applause from the classrooms of the third year of junior high school could no longer be heard, but the figures could be seen shaking in the distance, and the bright patch in the dark night was like an open-air movie being staged, and those students were swaying their years on the screen, and the hormonal splash made people can't help but boil their blood.
Ryu suddenly laughed.
He pursed his upper lip, let his lower lip pout, and then blew hard, and the air flow rose upward, blowing the long hair that covered his eyebrows, and raised it upwards in unison.
Ryu was very naΓ―ve about this move, which he often did when he was younger, and he felt very handsome at that time.
Although I haven't done it for a long time, I still do it so skillfully now.
He kept blowing and blowing until his cheeks felt the soreness.
Then Ryu's smile grew, grinning his teeth, thinking about his childish movements and expressions in his youth, and then shouting loudly into the dark night sky, the voice seemed to have passed through a long time and space, resonating with another era.
This is the state of youth, and to be young is to smile and tears unscrupulously.
After Liu Zhao finished shouting, he felt that the suppressed emotions in his heart were much better, so he got up and ran slowly around the playground, in his heart, the unique sign of youth is infinite vitality, inexhaustible physical strength and simple mood.
He wants to use running to make himself forget something, such as his perennial torment in the early days of entrepreneurship, insomnia and sadness and depression after a long night, he also tries to use this way to keep some things in his heart forever, such as the tearful smile on his wife's face when he finally entered the marriage hall after nine years of long-distance love, such as the joy when his wife just gave birth to a daughter that year and upgraded to become a father, such as the joy of an elderly father when he heard that his career had improved greatly, and the warmth that Li Fei inadvertently left on his cheeks just now.
To live is to learn to keep forgetting and remembering.
The length of Su Zhong's playground lap is 400 meters, and Liu did not feel tired after jogging a lap, on the contrary, he felt as if he had opened his muscles and bones with real activities, and the body and mind that had been suppressed for various reasons had been completely liberated and refreshed.
He didn't continue running, but stood still in front of the shadow wall.
After thinking for a while, Liu Zhao picked up a stone, and then sharpened the stone on the road, and then walked to the right corner of the shadow wall.
He scribbled a sentence in the lower right corner of the shadow wall.
The gray lime fell, and the handwriting gradually appeared as Yanagi's arm moved.
The typography is strong and powerful, and it is clearly different from the childish fonts around it.
Ryu nodded in relative satisfaction, then threw away the stones, clapped his hands, and turned to leave.
He walked out of the school gate, walked down the path, and walked into the thick night.
He didn't wait for the end of the party, and he didn't wait for the person he was waiting for
Li Fei actually regretted it since she said that sentence, she regretted that she didn't understand the result and opened her mouth rashly, but in the next hour, her heart gradually became firmer, Liu Relative was right, who stipulated that on the right path, it must be the most beautiful scenery? What's more, I'm just asking, nothing else.
So she began to anxiously wait for the end of the party, waiting for the appointed time to come.
The waiting time is the longest, as if it has been a long, long time, and the last feast of this junior high school career has finally come to an end, and the hour hand has pointed to 10 o'clock.
It had been an hour since Liu left the classroom, and he had not been there for the entire second half of the party.
Li Fei is in a nervous mood now, she is very anxious, she wants to run to the shadow wall quickly, but she is afraid that there are too many students now, if she finds out where the two of them are talking alone, will it be full of trouble in the school.
So she stayed, and she helped the boys clean up the messy classroom scene after the, very attentive and unintentional.
Her mind didn't know where it was, and her mind was confused and tidying up the crooked desks and the ground covered with melon seed skins, so that Xu Yue stood beside her for a long time without noticing.
"What do you want?"
Looking at Li Fei, who was obviously distracted, Xu Yue took the broom in her hand and asked in a soft tone.
"Huh? It's okay. Li Fei was startled, and then came back to her senses, and she found that she was now in a state of reluctance.
Xu Yue pondered for a while, and said in a deep tone: "I understand your current thoughts, don't worry, we all understand you." β
"Understand what?" Li Fei was a little curious about what Xu Yue's words meant.
"You didn't mean it, Liu is a bad student, how can you have anything to do with him."
Xu Yue felt that Li Fei was still caring about the episode in the party, and he had fully reacted now, Li Fei, it was impossible for him to have anything to do with Liu.
Li Fei didn't speak, she suddenly felt that everyone's reaction was indifferent, she only remembered that moment, Liu looked at the eyes of encouragement and clarity, so that she was calm and no longer panicked.
So she stopped answering the topic, looked at the few people left in the classroom, nodded and said to Xu Yue, "I'll go back to the dormitory first if there's nothing to do." β
"Do you have time now?" Xu Yue saw that Li Fei wanted to leave, so he mustered up the courage to ask.
Li Fei turned around and said without hesitation: "Not now." Then he hurried out of the classroom.
She really doesn't have time right now, she has something very important to verify.
She thinks it's really important right now.
She trotted all the way to the shadow wall, running so fast that she was afraid that he would be in a hurry.
She finally ran there, the street lamps were dimly shining on the mottled wall, and below were bright flowers waving in the night breeze, and occasionally there would be junior high school students who ran the school laughing and walking around the wall and out of the school gate, everything was so normal.
But Li Fei stayed here like this, and an empty sadness suddenly filled her heart.
Here she comes.
He's not there.
Li Fei squatted down slowly, and she suddenly felt that the strength in her body was suddenly taken away, and it was soft as if she was stepping on a cloud.
Why don't you wait for me, let me ask that sentence, and then let me tell you my answer.
The corners of Li Fei's eyes were a little wet, and she began to complain.
She began to complain that Liu was relatively incomprehensible, didn't wait for a while, began to complain that she was afraid of this and that, deliberately delayed that time in the classroom, and began to complain that Xu Yue had to talk to herself, which delayed for a few minutes.
If there were no such factors, she could have asked Ryu to wait for her, then ask him that sentence, and then give him an answer with a serious attitude herself.
It wasn't until she saw that Liu was not there that she understood her heart.
She wasn't sure if she liked it, but she knew that she would be happy if Ryu answered her question in the affirmative.
She is willing to see him walking seriously with his head down, willing to watch him read and review carefully, willing to see him bow his head and play the piano with his head up, willing to see his warm smile on his face, and even willing to experience the same excitement as the roller coaster when he was caught again for escaping exercises.
She felt sorry for the loneliness when Liu walked relatively seriously, the sadness he inadvertently showed at the party, and the boy who was misunderstood but kept smiling.
If this kind of willingness and distress is like, then, she likes him.
Whether he likes her or not.
Li Fei stood up and walked to the front of the shadow wall, looking at the school gate where no one was entering or leaving, she wanted to wait a little longer, she looked forward to the next second Liu Zhao suddenly gasped and turned the door and ran into her sight, then scratched her head and smiled and said I'm sorry, I went out just now and had something to do.
Half an hour later, she was sure that he wouldn't be back.
She looked down sadly, trying to see if there was any trace of the boy waiting.
Unfortunately, she couldn't see it, she only saw a stone that had been sharpened with water chestnuts.
So she went over and picked it up.
Thinking about her borrowed identity, thinking about what her father had said to her when she came home last week, and thinking that even if there was still time to meet, she might not have the opportunity to ask, so she turned to the left corner of the shadow wall, raised her hand, and wrote down the words that she had accumulated the courage to ask and say all night.
The gray lime was still falling, and she finished writing the sentence.
Then she turned and stepped into the dim light of the night.
The shadow wall was silent, and words carved in the same stone hung in the left and right corners.
"Have you ever liked me? I like you. β
"I've liked you, but we can only keep it in each other's youth, and keep it for later, quietly looking at it."
