Chapter 383: I'll Wait for You
Gu Mian's fingertips stroked the edge of the star, but he still couldn't hold back the longing in his heart, and touched the lock screen button of his phone, and the screen was still stuck in the dialing interface.
She pressed it with her eyes closed, her heart pounding and accelerating, and even her palms were sweating.
The phone rang a few times and it was connected, Gu Mian held his breath, not knowing what to say, and the sound of rain was clearly heard on the other end of the phone.
Is it raining over there too?
Gu Mian pursed his lips, and his voice was soft, as if he was afraid of disturbing something: "Ah Chuan." ”
……
Ji Lingchuan's heart sank after seeing Gu Mian and Lu Chen enter the villa together, and for a while, he didn't know where he was going next, so he simply stood in place.
Waiting for another two hours, until the end of the meal, he saw Lu Chen coming out of the villa with an umbrella, and it was Gu Mian who personally sent him to the door.
The two stood together and said a few words, and then, Lu Chen drove away, and Gu Mian turned around and returned to the villa.
He could have rushed up and grabbed her, but he didn't, maybe he didn't have the courage, or maybe he was fighting with himself.
Finally, the phone in my pocket rang.
Although it was a strange call, Ji Lingchuan had a strong premonition in his heart that it was Gu Mian calling.
As it turned out that he had guessed correctly, she called him anyway.
A "Ah Chuan" made him throw away his armor, and he couldn't take care of anything for a moment, desperate to see her.
Ji Lingchuan's hand holding the handle of the umbrella tightened, and his voice was hoarse: "Well, I'm here." ”
Gu Mian covered her mouth, desperately resisting the urge to cry, but it was still useless, she could only bite her lip to prevent herself from making a sound, and her bite hurt her mouth.
After a while, she calmed down a little, and said in a low voice: "You...... Are you done filming? ”
Without waiting for a reply, she cautiously explained: "I mean, is your movie finished?" She wasn't sure if he was getting her calls now during a break in filming or if it was already finished.
If he was still filming, she didn't know whether to continue talking.
Ji Lingchuan: "It's finished." ”
Gu Mian's fingers pinched the curtain cloth next to her, and her strength was so strong that she seemed to pull it down, she was silent for a long time, and found that she didn't know where to start.
It's only been more than a month, but she feels so far away, so far away that she doesn't want to recall, as long as she thinks about it, there will be a dull pain in her chest, as if the scabbed scar has been torn apart, and blood is dripping.
She grabbed the fabric on her chest, and every breath fell on Ji Lingchuan's ear, she opened her mouth, but the words became "Ah Chuan, I miss you so much......"
Ji Lingchuan's heart trembled suddenly.
The voice of the person over there suddenly changed, as if he was trying to suppress something: "I'm in England, my mother is out of ...... Something happened and she needed to go abroad for treatment, I ...... There is no way. Mom and Dad...... Divorced, my mother is only me. ”
Because his throat was choked, his words were intermittent, mixed with subtle imperceptible choking sounds, and some incoherent speech.
Despite her efforts to cover it up, Ji Lingchuan still noticed that she ...... Crying?
Gu Mian thought that he didn't know, so in order not to let him hear anything unusual, she took the phone a little farther away, covered the earpiece with her hand, and sniffed very lightly, trying to make her voice sound normal.
After adjusting, she put the phone to her ear again: "I want to stay here to study, and take care of my mother by the way." ”
My uncle and aunt both have their own jobs, and even if they hire a helper to take care of them, they can't replace the encouragement and warmth she brings to my mother.
After Gu Mian finished speaking, he turned around and leaned against the window, quietly waiting for the reply from there.
But she waited for a long time, and Ji Lingchuan didn't speak.
Her legs gradually became a little untenable, and she slowly squatted down and sat on the floor, the hand that was not holding the phone wrapped around her knee, and a dazed fear rose in her heart.
Originally, she and Ji Lingchuan often didn't see each other for a few months together, but now he is going to film in China, and she has to study abroad, not only separated by a long distance, but also with a time difference of nearly eight hours.
This relationship is nothing more than two endings, one is that he waits for her, and the other is ...... Parted.
Just thinking about those two words, she felt as if she was about to suffocate.
Ji Lingchuan was the first person she liked, although they didn't spend much time together after dating, she was soberly aware that her feelings for him had deepened little by little.
If she could, she would also like to be there for him all the time.
Ji Lingchuan looked at the villa in the night, there were several rooms with lights on, and he didn't know which one was Gu Mian.
"Mianmian, you come out." He said suddenly.
Gu Mian was still immersed in the sadness of being about to break up, and when she heard his words, she was stunned for a moment, and didn't react for a while: "You, what did you say?" ”
This time she forgot to hide, Ji Lingchuan heard a thick nasal voice, and she really cried.
The rain outside the window gradually became lighter, and the sound was almost inaudible, and the miraculous thing was that the sound of the rain on the other end of the phone also became smaller, Gu Mian's eyes widened, could it be that he was in the UK?
In the next second, Ji Lingchuan's words verified her guess: "I'm outside your house." After a pause, he was worried that he was not clear enough, "It's not the Gu family, it's the British family." ”
Gu Mian turned his head and looked out through the glass window.
It was already dark, and I couldn't see anything except a bright white Gu lamp.
Gu Mian's ears were buzzing, and his mind was full of Ji Lingchuan coming to the UK, he had come to find her, and he was now outside the villa.
She immediately got up and ran out, but she was so quick that she knocked down the chair next to the table and slammed it on the floor with a loud bang.
Ji Lingchuan raised his eyebrows when he heard the voice: "Sleepy? "Did she fall?
Gu Mian didn't have time to pick up the chair, opened the door and walked out, just when he bumped into Alisa who heard the movement coming out of the study.
She is the editor-in-chief of a publishing house, and she is usually busy with work, and she has to take home unfinished work. She was just reading the email when she suddenly heard a noise and came out to check on the situation.
Alisa glanced into the room behind her, "Mianmian, are you alright?" ”
Gu Mian shook his head in a panic: "I'm fine, no, I have something...... I'm going to get out for a bit. ”
Without waiting for Alisa to ask her what she was going out for, Gu Mian ran out.
She walked in a hurry, even forgot to take the umbrella, and as soon as she went out, she was caught in the rain, but fortunately it was not so heavy at this time, and she ran in the rain with one hand on her head.
Usually it takes several minutes to walk from the villa to the gate, but she arrived at Ma Gu in the blink of an eye.
Before the phone hung up, a layer of fine raindrops fell on the screen, she wiped it with her hand, her heart was about to beat out of her throat, and her voice couldn't stop trembling: "Ah Chuan, where are you......"
Before the words fell, she was pulled into a cold embrace.
Ji Lingchuan hugged her from behind, the umbrella in his hand had already been thrown on the ground, his arms wrapped around her like vines, and a familiar voice sounded in his ears: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”
It's all his fault for not being there for her when she needed him the most. With so much going on, he could imagine how helpless and desperate she was.
Gu Mian closed his eyes, and tears fell from the corners of his eyes.
She didn't know how long Ji Lingchuan had been waiting outside before there would be no temperature on her body, but she still had to say that although this embrace was not so warm, it was the most comforting for her.
He apologized in her ear over and over again, but he didn't know what had happened to her when he sent that text.
At that time, she was so sad, one thing after another weighed on her, she was overwhelmed, his "don't bother" was the last straw that crushed the camel, and she only felt that she was abandoned.
She was angry with him, complained about him, and even thought about ignoring him for a long time, so that she didn't bother him as he wished.
However, when she came to the UK and was really so far away from him, the longing was as unbearable as ants gnawing at him, so much so that she couldn't help but call him when she thought that he might finish filming.
Until, when he appeared in front of her at such an important time as tonight, all her uneasiness vanished.
Gu Mian turned around and buried himself in his arms, and said in a muffled voice, "I don't blame you. ”
Ji Lingchuan's chin rested on the top of her head, and this moment was finally confirmed, she didn't want him.
Still, he wanted to hear her say it herself.
In the drizzle, he picked up her face, looked directly at her eyes with dark eyes, and said word by word: "So, you don't want to disturb my filming, you don't give up on me, you don't mean to break up with me, right?" ”
Gu Mian's eyes were a little red, and he was silent for a moment, and said, "I've never thought like that. ”
Ji Lingchuan lowered his head and kissed her, this was enough, as long as she was still willing to be with him, no matter how long she was going to stay abroad, he would wait for her.
The night was deep, and the rain was wrapped in a trace of coolness, falling on the two of them, and next to them was a bright European-style Gu lamp, quietly sprinkling light.
Ji Lingchuan's cold body gradually warmed up.
He really wanted to warn Gu Mian not to be stupid in the future, or not to be so sensible, he was never afraid of her disturbing. However, the atmosphere was so quiet that he couldn't bear to make a noise to destroy.
Gu Mian wrapped her arms around his waist, and there was a good smell between her nose, which made her reluctant to let go.
Time seemed to stand still, and the two hugged each other tightly, until Gu Mian couldn't help but sneeze, and Ji Lingchuan let go of her nervously, picking up the umbrella on the ground and blocking it above her head.
I didn't notice it just now, but at this moment I saw that she was wearing a nightdress and ran out, with sandals on her feet, wet from the rain and a little mud.
Gu Mian rubbed his nose, his eyes were still red, he cried several times today, and his eyes were still a little swollen.
Ji Lingchuan slowly approached, her warm lips pressed against her eyes, she was caught off guard, her eyelashes fluttered a few times, and she felt something cold pushing into her right middle finger.
As if he had guessed what it was, Gu Mian's heart was pounding.
After a while, Ji Lingchuan stepped back a little. She looked down at her hand, and on her middle finger was a ring, a silver ring, with a row of diamonds facing up, and the one in the middle, slightly larger, flanked by tiny memorial diamonds, shining like stars even in the dark.
Ji Lingchuan said: "Happy nineteenth birthday, this is a birthday gift for you." ”
Gu Mian covered his eyes with the back of his hand, and pursed his lips lightly, you just deliberately want to make me cry, right?
Ji Lingchuan also said: "This ring represents the agreement between us, you can stay in the UK as long as you want, and I will always wait for you." ”
Of course, he is also telling other boys that this girl has a master, so don't think about it.
