075 Flowers Bloom in Loneliness
Breakfast is already set on the table.
When Li Yaotang saw it, he was stunned for a moment.
"Come over for dinner." He said.
It's juice and sandwiches. Li Yaotang glanced at it, didn't sit down, reached over to take the sandwich, He Yu quickly stretched out his hand and covered the plate. She withdrew her hand.
"Sit down." He didn't look at her.
She didn't say anything.
"Sit down and eat, I'll take you to work later."
She's going to be late, he knows. But I can't help but eat breakfast. Standing on an empty stomach all morning, that's no joke.
She finally sat down, muffled, and wiped out all the food in front of her. Then, she picked up her coat and bag and left.
He followed her to his feet.
"No, you don't." She had already walked to the door, waiting for her to change her shoes. He passed by her and grabbed her hand, and she shook it, but didn't shake it off.
Last night's situation was like a hard stab, which gave her a headache and a distress to her heart.
He didn't budge. Took her by the hand, opened the door, walked out, walked to the car, and stuffed her into his own car.
"I'll go by myself." Her mouth was wide and her face was blue and white.
He ignored it.
The car was driving fast, as if it was about to fly. His hand pressed the leather seat beneath him. Just touching it, it looks like it's been burned again.
He saw her reaction.
He just drove the car fast and faster......
When he parked the car at the school gate, Li Yaotang's face was completely white. Along the way, she stubbornly refused to say a word to him, he knew that she was uncomfortable, he knew that she wanted to vomit when he was racing, and he knew that she was even a little afraid of him. But...... He watched Li Yaotang open the car door and get out of the car, and walked towards the school gate without looking back, as if he was running away...... What about his heart?
Just when they are about to be most closely united, when they are most intimate with each other, there is the presence of others. He tried so hard that he still couldn't pull her heart and her god back. Her indulgence when she was drunk, he could tell himself to ignore as much as possible; But when she was sober, she was confused and refused......
He just stayed in the car. Let yourself cool down slowly. Through the skylight, you can see the dark night sky. There are only a few brightest stars. The light around is too strong, and the stars are hiding their shining.
He thought that if she could, quietly, lie here with him, even if it was just for a while, he wouldn't feel so uncomfortable in his heart. Just now, I really didn't want to be sober. If you are a little confused, you don't have to see her eyes clearly, how nice.
It wasn't until Li Yaotang's figure disappeared into the crowd and traffic at the school gate that he left.
And Li Yaotang trotted, wanting to run out of the range of the iron river's vision as soon as possible.
"Tang Tang!"
She stopped.
"What are you running? I'm exhausted. Teacher Xiao Su caught up with her, but she was out of breath, "I called you for a long time, but you just ignored it." Is there a ghost chasing you from behind? ”
Li Yaotang looked ahead.
No, it's not a ghost behind her, it's a ghost in her heart.
Teacher Xiao Su told her that there was a meeting in the college office in the first class in the afternoon.
She agreed.
Until she stood in the classroom and opened her notebook, her heart was still beating irregularly. Fingers slid on the touchpad, this small LCD screen in front of her, on the desktop is a picture of a bamboo forest, emerald eyes, she looked, this is a picture that she is used to seeing every day...... There are not many icons on the desktop, she habitually browses, and her lesson plans are always placed on the desktop.
Waiting for it to be opened, she took off her watch, put it on the lectern, and took a look, there were still ten minutes before the start of class.
It's still early. It's still early.
The hurricane on the road just now still made her heart palpitate...... The fingertips scratched the corners of his forehead, dispelling the palpitation. She shifted her gaze back to the screen in front of her.
She lifted her hand and lifted her glasses.
She lifted her eyes.
Row after row, column after column, boys and girls, sitting, standing, walking, flipping books, chatting, drinking milk, and staring straight at her......
She looked over one by one, these familiar and unfamiliar faces, these ...... Students.
Be quiet.
The breathless silence of this able person wrapped around Li Yaotang like a rope. So strange, yet so familiar. Like countless nights, she sat quietly on the carpet, facing only the light, when her own figure was so quiet, so quiet; But there are obviously many, many people in front of me, but it seems that there is no one, and it is so quiet, so quiet......
Her hand lightly pounded her legs, once, twice, three times...... Then, she raised her hand and closed the notebook. It's like putting all of them together.
The class bell rang.
She picked up the chalk and turned around to write today's topic on the blackboard: "Peacock Flying Southeast". One stroke at a time, every stroke is solemn. The nib has white dust that falls......
"The peacock flies southeast, and the peacock flies southeast...... Why do peacocks fly southeast? She muttered. Casually, she wasn't trying to ask for an answer. Every year, she talks about these things, looking for novelty and interest in the old and repetitive.
"Because, there are high-rise buildings in the northwest." He didn't even lift his head. I don't know how I heard it, and I don't know how I got it......
The chalk "click" is broken there, and the last point of the word "fly" is not dotted.
She added that bit hard, took a deep breath, and she turned around and turned on the microphone. She whispered to the students I'm sorry, there was something wrong with the document today, there is no way to use slides, I will write all the boards, try to write as large as possible, so that you can see clearly......
Before she could finish her words, some students below began to applaud, and gradually, the applause merged into one piece, and she stopped.
Mr. Li, we like your board book. It's beautiful.
A student shouted loudly in the back row.
A good-natured chuckle. Very simple laugh.
Far away, she watched, and then, she smiled and nodded. She said thank you and I will do better.
I will do better. This is not much that I can do well; This is not much place that I can hold...... I will do better. The rest, I can not care.
Li Yaotang thought that her heart should still be at peace.
Even when An Zhijia called her and wanted to meet her, she was at peace.
There was a kind of peace that made her feel strange when she thought about it later.
She should have felt guilty about Zhijia.
……
An Zhijia took out a beautifully bound paper envelope with beautiful Chinese characters printed on it from her bag, put it on the table, and pushed it towards Li Yaotang.
"In the hospital that day, I mentioned to you, Mr. Bandong Yuzaburo's performance stills." Zhijia smiled, "On the day I watched the show, I was working and didn't have the heart to enjoy it, but I still managed to buy it." You know, I broke the rules, I was caught, I was punished. She smiled playfully.
Li Yaotang looked at Cheng Min's face. A round face, round eyes, sheared eyes, smart and lively, and thin lips...... It is said that such lips are the most kind words...... Zhijia's whole body was shrouded in vitality. Even when he walked, his footsteps and the tips of his hair were full of enthusiasm.
Not like her.
An Zhijia took a sip of tea and glanced at Ziduan, "Why don't you open it and take a look?" I don't know if it's to your liking. However, I can't help it, and I probably won't go back anytime soon. You can ask other colleagues to bring it to you when they return to China - it will take some time. ”
Li Yaotang reached out and picked up the paper envelope. I opened it and looked at it in my hand one by one. She looked closely.
I only heard An Zhijia say, "...... I thought, if you want, don't say it's easy to fly over to see it, this still, how much you can't get, it may not be rare for me to send it. However, I and you are also a rare fate; What's even more rare is that there is a reason to sit down and talk. Two words to tell you. ”
An Zhijia said it bluntly, and Li Yaotang heard it clearly.
Li Yaotang looked at the elegant and delicate shape of Bandong in the photo, and looked at it carefully, as if he was a little fascinated.
An Zhijia held the teacup and looked at Li Yaotang in front of him.
It's probably because she went straight to the appointment after school, and her dress should be what she looked like when she was working: long blond-brown hair, pulled back her head, and she looks very energetic, but not the kind of aggressive and sharp energy. In fact, in her eyes, Li Yaotang is more beautiful when her hair is scattered, she is so graceful and gentle, and she can drown out the soft beauty of people...... She sighed inwardly.
Facing Li Yaotang, it seems that he can't say what he should say. Just look into her eyes, her talking eyes, the things to say, the things to do, the things to think, the good, the bad, the joyful, the angry...... All of these things are like a punch on the cotton ball, and the strength is about to be exerted, but in an instant, it disappears completely, leaving only that little echo in my heart.
How much she hates, how much she hates Li Yaotang. I hate that she occupies that person's heart, I hate that she occupies that person's memory, and I hate that I want to twist her into powder...... That's the word, bone-shattering...... An Zhijia was suddenly startled by his thoughts. In broad daylight, how can these thoughts come up only at night, when you are alone?
She watched Li Yaotang - she was still watching stills. Those expensive stills, real photos, numbered, easy to collect — when she bought them, she was still thinking, these things...... What's so good?
An Zhijia also hates those stills. Hate that gig. The work schedule was laid out early in the morning, and she saw it clearly and didn't like it. She not only has to accompany the translator, but also carefully prepare the relevant materials. She never liked that. Babbling stuff, not pleasant, depressing. Even if it's beauty, she doesn't appreciate it.
When she was flipping through the materials and preparing, she couldn't help but think of Li Yaotang. Thinking that when they were chatting together, Li Yaotang mentioned Bandong Yuzaburo and mentioned "The Peony Pavilion", she didn't know much about it, but Fu Gan talked endlessly, and the silent Fu Gan would become so much because of a topic of Li Yaotang - it's not that he doesn't know, Fu Gan, he will make special time to watch Bandong's performance; She didn't like it and wouldn't go, so he went by himself...... Okay, okay, that's his own heart, that's the time he spends alone, that's the corner she can't walk into, that's the world related to Li Yaotang - it doesn't matter, as long as he sees himself, he will have a heartfelt smile, as long as he is in front of him, kind and healthy, sincere and open, she doesn't care about that. Life is short, what she loves, she wants to grasp; Life is very long, she is willing to wait, waiting for the one she feels is worth waiting for and paying, waiting for the imprint in his heart to become a seed, buried deep in the deep field of memory, and blooming into a beautiful flower...... Flowers that she and he will be able to admire together one day.
