Chapter 162: Saying goodbye to the good things that once were
Coming out of the hotel, the cold winter wind carried the snow whistling and rolling over.
Liang Xixiao, perhaps out of instinct or because of habit, actually moved closer to Ning Yu's side, and half-hid behind Ning Yu.
If it was once, Ning Yu should have taken a big step forward, blocked the wind with his body, and then urged Liang Xixiao to put on the scarf and cotton hat quickly, Liang Xixiao should be coquettish and against Ning Yu, and then, Ning Yu would definitely take the initiative to help Liang Xixiao wrap the scarf in a hurry, and then hold her and walk into the ice and snow with a sweet smile.
At that time, the snow was all over the sky, and the whole world was covered in silver, like a fairytale country made of ice and snow, and everything was so romantic without any decoration.
But now, although Ning Yu also stepped forward and blocked the wind for Liang Xixiao with his body, he didn't need to say anything, Liang Xixiao had already put on the scarf and hat by himself, and then returned to Ning Yu's side, a little embarrassed Ning Yu smiled.
There was no snow today, and the snow on the houses and roads had been toppled on both sides of the road, piled up like fortresses.
I don't know who built the snowman, standing alone on the side of the road, and I don't know whose prank left an ugly footprint on the snowman's face.
"Where are you going?" Liang Xixiao was still so afraid of the cold, she put her hands in the pockets of her cotton clothes, and was fully armed to the point that only a pair of eyes were exposed.
"I don't know." Although Ning Yu is also afraid of the cold, he is still used to not wearing a hat, if Tang Tang gave him a scarf, it is estimated that he would not even wear a scarf, and he would still let the cold wind blow his face and blow his eyes.
Neither of them spoke after that, they both walked silently and carefully on the side of the road, coldly and quietly, some people slipped a little because they stepped on the ice, and the other person would not laugh, let alone rush up to hold on, but would only remind him to be careful with an expressionless face.
Before they knew it, the two walked to the high school they attended back then.
From the outside, the high school has not changed at all, except that the big trees at the entrance have been cut down, and the green belt is wider than before.
"It's been a long time since I've been back to school, so let's go in and take a walk." Liang Xixiao lowered his head and walked towards the school gate.
The little old man guarding the door was roasting a fire in the hut at the gate, and when he saw someone coming to the door, he hurriedly got up and came out to see, and then he recognized Ning Yu at a glance.
Ning Yu's deeds have become a very typical case in this school, and every teacher will painstakingly persuade those students who are not good at studying, so that they can be like Ning Yu back then, suddenly wake up one day, create a miracle, and be admitted to Jiangbei University, a prestigious school, from the bottom of the grade.
"Uncle, do you remember me?" Ning Yu saw that it was an acquaintance who came out of the door, and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
The little old man looked at it with a smile, spit out a white ha, and said, "Xiao Ning, your university is on vacation, did you come back to see the teacher?" ”
Ning Yu smiled and said, "No, we just finished eating with the teacher." I just missed school so much that I wanted to go in and have a look. Uncle, let it go. ”
"Good, good!" The little old man smiled and nodded, then saw Liang Xixiao next to Ning Yu, squinted his eyes for a while, and suddenly recognized Liang Xixiao, so he exclaimed: "Xiao Ning, this is your little girlfriend, right?" I didn't expect you two to really come together. It's good, it's good......"
"Uncle, you misunderstood...... Ning Yu wanted to explain, but saw that the little old man had already smiled and waved his hand to open the side door.
"Let's go shopping, it's good to come back often." The little old man smiled, watched the two enter the high school campus after a long absence, then turned around and closed the side door, lifted the heavy curtain, and returned to the small gate guard house with a fire.
Bidding farewell to the janitor for the time being, Ning Yu and Liang Xixiao revisited their hometown and entered the high school campus.
The inside of the door is flanked by a wide green belt, with several large trees lined up, like guards of knowledge. In the spring, they are bare, and when no one is looking, they will secretly let green bud packets grow on the branches, eager to say goodbye to the ugly as soon as possible; In summer, their branches are full of green leaves, and they will make a "rustle" sound when reading aloud, and in the middle of summer, they will urge their companions to make a lazy "squeak" sound; In autumn, the leaves are yellow, and the palm-sized fallen leaves flutter away from the branches, gradually piling up thick on the ground, and then they will be swept up by the autumn wind and fly to all corners of the campus, making the cleaning aunts unavoidably nagging.
It's winter, and every tree is bare, and there is a lot of snow hanging on its branches, like patches of white beards, as if to tell the world that time will grow old.
Bypassing the main teaching building, which was already a little mottled with walls, and walking through the path with snowmen on both sides of the road, Ning Yu and Liang Xixiao came to the playground surrounded by an iron fence.
Now that the school is closed, although the sound of reading cannot be heard, there are still a few boys on the playground wearing close-fitting warm clothes, playing football in the snow, looking very happy, and steaming.
Liang Xixiao didn't know what he suddenly thought, and laughed out loud.
Ning Yu turned his head curiously to look at Liang Xi and smiled: "What's wrong?" ”
Liang Xixiao pointed to the boy who was covered in white mist far away and said, "I remember that you used to call it true qi, and you also said that when you cultivate immortals to a certain extent, you can leak true qi and circulate outside the body or something." ”
Ning Yu remembered that his mind was very open-minded at that time, and he read novels every day except for playing games, and he was indeed very carefree and happy.
It's just that how happy it was then, how painful it was later.
What you owe, no matter who you owe, even if you just owe this fair world a laziness, you still have to pay it back after all, not to mention, this world is not fair in the first place.
"Ning Yu, look, the swing over there has been repaired." Liang Xixiao pointed to the fitness equipment area by the flower bed on the side of the playground and said.
Ning Yu followed Liang Xixiao's point and saw that the fitness equipment over there had been completely renewed, but it was covered with thick snow, and it looked like no one had been playing for a long time.
"Shall I take a look?" Ning Yu asked.
"Okay." Liang Xixiao nodded.
The two of them walked on the snow that made a "squeak" sound, and walked in the campus full of memories, both bowing their heads and being silent.
The exhaled breath will be frozen into a psychedelic white by the extremely low temperature, which makes Ning Yu, who has a little alcohol on it, suddenly feel in a trance. Through the layers of mist, he seemed to see him and Liang Xi walking in front with a smile.
Liang Xixiao no matter how cold it is, no matter how afraid of the cold, he has to hold Ning Yu's arm.
When I was in high school, I was in a class of two, and I encountered the same things every day, and the heavy study made my daily life almost immutable. But why did they always seem to have endless things to talk about at that time, and why did they feel very happy no matter what they talked about at that time?
At that time, I was young, I didn't know where tomorrow was, and I just wanted to enjoy every second of happiness in the moment.
She would give him a shallow kiss on the cheek, and he would be so excited that he would wash his face to avoid being kissed by a smile; She would happily hold his arm like a sticky kitten, and keep telling Ning Yu: "I really like you so much!" ”
At that time, no matter how high the sky seemed to be within reach, how strong the wind was at that time, they all believed that as long as they held hands, they could not be blown away, and the last thing they were afraid of was to be the enemy of the whole world, and the most afraid was the tears she shed when she was in a small mood.
He longs to give everything for him with all her heart and lungs, she longs to be able to look at him and smile every day, and they both long to be together forever and never separate.
However, this world cannot become what they dream after all, the sun is not bright every moment, and the cold wind can really blow the extremely strong heart to collapse.
If you can go back to how good it used to be, it is not because there are other choices, but because you know more about the preciousness of every second, and you can cherish it more to be good to her, so that she does not shed a single tear.
Before they knew it, the two came to the swing.
Liang Xixiao suddenly stretched out his gloved hand without fear of the cold, pushed off the snow on it, turned around and sat on it slightly awkwardly, and then shook it with a smile.
"Ning Yu, look, I can fly." Ning Yu's ears seemed to be vaguely separated by the barrier of time, and Liang Xixiao's laughter and laughter came.
"Ning Yu, you sit over there, let's fly high together, okay?"
"But the swing is broken."
"Then you just pull the chain and swing, Tarzan of the Apes can be, why can't you?"
"I'm stupid."
“……”
There's no need to struggle like then, the swings are all fixed. Ning Yu sat on the swing next to him and followed Liang Xixiao and gently swayed.
It's just that the rhythm of the two has never been able to synchronize, either she is in front or he is in front.
Perhaps, the two of them are like the moon and the sun, so swinging on this side, chasing each other and missing each other, mistakenly falling into the cycle of never being able to meet, and can only occasionally look at each other across the west and east mountains. The day we come together again will inevitably be a tomorrow that will never come.
"Ning Yu, thank you." Liang Xixiao, who had been silent, said suddenly.
Ning Yu didn't know why Liang Xixiao suddenly said such a sentence, he couldn't help but be stunned, stopped unconsciously, turned his head to look at Liang Xixiao next to him, but found that she was looking at the distant sky.
Liang Xixiao pulled down the scarf that blocked his face, revealing a sweet smiling face that was red from the cold, vaguely like those years.
"Thank you for giving me so many good memories; Thank you for allowing me to learn to grow; Thank you for being able to sit here with me like a friend; Thank you for letting me know that life can never be done all over again. ”
"I'm sorry." Ning Yu lowered his head.
Liang Xixiao smiled and shook his head: "None of us are sorry for anyone, we are just the wrong people we met at the wrong time for each other, but this is not a wrong thing." ”
She re-pulled her scarf to cover her frozen, reddened face, but she couldn't stop her misty eyes.
"Ning Yu, I'll go first. You sit for a while, don't go with me. That's it, say nothing, and watch me leave. Liang Xi said with a smile and walked away without looking back, leaving a series of footprints on the snow.
Looking at Liang Xixiao's back, Ning Yu knew that she would not look back, but he still raised his hand and waved.
Goodbye, smile; Goodbye, the good things we used to be. This time, it was their last date; This time, too, is a real farewell.
The beauty of the past is so intoxicating, but the beautiful people have been torn apart on both sides of the picture, and no one can go back, just like the seventeen-year-old who can't go back.
Ning Yu watched Liang Xixiao walk farther and farther until he disappeared around the corner of the path on the side of the teaching building. He didn't leave, swinging alone and continuing to watch the juniors chasing each other on the court.
Cherish the beauty of the moment so that you don't regret it.
Ning Yu was drunk in a trance, and suddenly felt the mobile phone in his arms vibrate. He took out his mobile phone, connected the phone, and immediately heard Tang Tang's anxious shout: "Hey, villain, if you don't reply to my message, shouldn't you drink too much again?" Can you protect your body, you ......"
"Tang Sugar."
"Huh?"
"I will definitely do my best to be good to you, cherish you, and let you leave me one day!"
After a short silence, Tang Tang said in a solemn tone, "Ning Yu, me too." ”
