Chapter 391: Where are the people
Bai Rouying smiled and waved her hand at Lu Zhan, watching him leave, until Lu Zhan's figure disappeared from her sight, she finally couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her mouth, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
In fact, she was reluctant, God knows how much heartache she felt when she said what she just said, and at that moment she only felt as if her heart had been hollowed out by something.
Even if she has made up her mind in her heart, in fact, Bai Rouying still knows very well that how can it be so easy to completely leave Jin Yu behind, she is reluctant, reluctant to leave this city, and even more reluctant to give Jin Yu.
There are so many fond memories of their relationship here.
Even with her hands clapping and covering her mouth vigorously, Bai Rouying still couldn't help but let out a low whimper.
Sitting next to Bai Rouying was a very young boy.
It was probably the first time to experience such a thing, and seeing Bai Rouying showing such a look, listening to Bai Rouying's whimper, he really felt a little unbearable, the boy hesitated for a while, but still took out a piece of paper from his bag and handed it to Bai Rouying.
Looking at the white tissue in front of her, Bai Rouying was stunned.
"Sister, wipe it off." The boy's expression was very embarrassed, he seemed to be a little unsociable, and when he saw Bai Rouying looking at him, his face suddenly became a piece.
But even so, I still mustered up the courage to say: "Although I don't know what's wrong with you, I guess I should have encountered something sad and sad, or I was reluctant to leave, but don't be sad, no matter what happens, it will pass." ”
Bai Rouying choked vigorously, stretched out her other hand to take the tissue, nodded hesitantly, and thanked the boy: "Thank you." ”
"No thanks." The boy's face suddenly became more and more pale.
His hands were clenched a little tightly, his expression became more and more nervous, as if he was brewing to pass a good class, and finally raised his head and scratched it gently, lowering his eyelids and not daring to look at Bai Rouying's face at all.
said in a voice like a mosquito: "Actually, I'm also going to the United States to study, I'm leaving my family, I don't know when I'll be back, and I'm very sad before, but I've been telling myself that I left today to get better in the future." ”
At the end of the day, the boy suddenly regained his self-confidence.
He raised his head and showed a big smile on his face: "Maybe when I come back in four years, I will become a better person than I dare to imagine, maybe when I look back at the present, I will find that everything I have done now is worth it." ”
Bai Rouying paused, stared at the boy's face fixedly, looked at it for a while, didn't know what came to mind, and finally put her hand off her face.
She wiped away the tears on her face and smiled vigorously, "Thank you." ”
That's right, there's nothing that can't be overcome, maybe when you look back at the present in the future, there won't be any more fluctuations in your heart.
On the day she arrived in the United States, Bai Rouying had a high fever, and after sitting on a plane for so long, she was unable to adapt to the soil and water when she arrived in the United States, and she vomited and diarrhea, and she had no energy for a long time.
Lu Zhan was busy alone, first sent Bai Rouying to the hospital, took care of her and arranged her injections, and then hurriedly went to rent a house near Bai Rouying's school.
Considering the difference between men and women, he rented two rooms from his landlord in the United States, both on the first floor, just next door to Bai Rouying.
The landlords were an elderly American couple named Mr. and Mrs. Smith, both in their 60s, and their children were not around.
Because it is close to the university, there are still a lot of people renting in his house, most of them are some Chinese students.
Lu Zhan's final choice here also had this factor.
Perhaps because her mentality has not been adjusted well, resulting in a not very good mood, Bai Rouying's condition has been procrastinating, delaying again and again, and it has not been good for a long time.
It wasn't until more than half a month later that there were finally signs of improvement.
During this period, Professor Keynes came to visit Bai Rouying, saw that he was not well, and told Bai Rouying to be cured before going to school to study, otherwise, he would really waste his life and time repeatedly.
was so busy, taking care of the woman day and night for most of the month, and the road station was reduced at a speed visible to the naked eye.
He was already thin, but now he looks even more terrifyingly thin, and there is almost no flesh on his face.
Seeing everything in Bai Rouying's eyes, her heart was helpless, sad, and moved.
After her condition improved, while Lu Zhan went to the hospital to get medicine for herself, and when she was not at home, Bai Rouying went out with these international student neighbors and deliberately went to the nearby supermarket to buy a lot of vegetables.
By the time she came back from the road station, Bai Rouying had already prepared a large table of meals full of color and aroma.
"Little Shadow ......"
The meal was shared, the dining room of the Smith couple's house, but because Bai Rouying had greeted her in advance, and because she had given other international students some usage fees, there were no other people in the living room to disturb at this time.
Lu Zhan was still holding the medicine he had just taken from the hospital, looking at Bai Rouying smiling and sitting at the dining table, still wearing an apron, just looking at himself like this, a throbbing feeling flashed in his heart for a moment.
That's the life he wants.
No matter how hard it is, no matter how busy it is, when you come back from outside every day, you can see your loved ones at home, waiting for you at the table.
No matter how late it is, as long as there is a faint yellow light in the house, his heart is bright and warm.
"Brother Lu Zhan."
Bai Rouying stood up, walked to Lu Zhan's side, pushed his shoulder, and let him sit at the table.
Even with his back to Bai Rouying, Lu Zhan could still guess Bai Rouying's expression and appearance when she spoke.
"Xiaoying ......" He called Bai Rouying's name again, feeling a little anxious inexplicably, afraid that Bai Rouying was going to say something she didn't want to hear, such as giving her an answer to the confession she had made some time ago, which Lu Zhan definitely didn't want to hear.
"Brother Lu Zhan, don't talk first, listen to me first, I have a lot to say to you." Bai Rouying took two steps back slightly, widened the distance between her and Lu Zhan, and stared at the back of the man's head like this.
Her voice was faintly choked: "Thank you for taking care of me during this time, I am really touched and moved, if it weren't for you, the first day of coming to the United States would have been enough for me to collapse." ”
On the day she came to the United States, she had a high fever so badly, and she was in a foreign country, if she was really alone, I was afraid that Bai Rouying would really collapse.
Fortunately, Lu Zhan has always been by her side, and this man is the same as many years ago, no matter what happened, he stood by his side without regrets, shielding himself from the wind and rain.
Even though so many things have been experienced, so many things have happened, all people are changing, and they have all changed, but only Lu Zhan is still the same as before.
He is still his own Lu Zhan brother.
It is impossible to say that it is not moved.
"I don't need you to thank me." Lu Zhan's hand hanging on his knee was quietly clenched, and his eyelids drooped slightly, completely covering the emotions under his eyes.
He said: "These are all of my own volition, Xiaoying, you don't have to have any guilt and guilt......"
If he wanted to reject him and tell him to give up and stop chasing Bai Rouying, then he would rather not have Bai Rouying's thanks.
Take good care of Bai Rouying, everything is his wishful thinking, whether it is his crush, he doesn't ask for much, as long as he can be by Bai Rouying's side, help Bai Rouying when she needs it, and shelter her from the wind and rain, these are enough.
He didn't ask for more, at least for now.
"Brother Lu Zhan, don't worry." Bai Rouying couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, she was moved, sad, and sour.
She raised her hand and wiped her tears vigorously: "You listen to me first." ”
Bai Rouying raised her head and looked at the sparkling crystal lamp above her head, and her heart gradually drifted away.
"I remember when we were very young, we used to build a castle with sand by the sea, and you played the role of my brother from the time you played the house."
At that time, there were a lot of children of the same age in Xiaohai Village, because Bai Rouying was good-looking, and there were not a few little boys who took bullying her as a kind of fun.
And Lu Zhan has never been involved in those people.
Not even that, whenever those children bullied Bai Rouying, Lu Zhan would also stand up, protect Bai Rouying, and drive all the people who bullied Bai Rouying away.
Thinking of this, Bai Rouying smiled: "It seems that I have always been like this since I was a child, no matter what kind of situation I encounter, you will always stand in front of me and protect me tightly." ”
Lu Zhan closed his eyes heavily: "It's just that the person next to you has changed, and the person standing next to you is no longer me, but someone else." ”
Later, Bai Rouying's family suddenly suffered a huge change, and many unimaginable things happened overnight, and it seems that from that time on, things have changed.
Later, Bai Rouying went abroad to study, and Lu Zhan also began to be busy with his own affairs, the contact between them gradually decreased, and gradually became unfamiliar.
It wasn't until that time that Lu Zhan completely understood his mind.
It's just that he is proud, he would rather continue to be an elder brother who protects her by Bai Rouying's side, and he didn't reveal any of his thoughts.
"No, there are no substitutions."
Bai Rouying knew what Lu Zhan was talking about, and she almost burst into tears when she thought of Jin Yu.
It was only soon that she restrained her emotions again.
Lu Zhan turned his head.
Bai Rouying showed a very bright smile at him: "You see that it's not you who are standing by my side now?" When I was sick, it was you who accompanied me and took care of me, Brother Lu Zhan, all this has never changed. ”
There was really a moment, when he heard Bai Rouying's words, Lu Zhan was moved.
He also wanted to tell himself that it was really like this.
But the facts cannot deceive themselves.
It wasn't his from beginning to end, he was absent during the most critical period of Bai Rouying's life.
It was precisely because of that absence that he completely missed Bai Rouying.
"Little Shadow ......"
"Brother Lu Zhan!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, Bai Rouying scolded him again, revealing a coquettish expression that only when he was a child.
Lu Zhan's expression was in a trance for a moment, and for a moment, he had the feeling that he had returned to the feeling that he had returned to his childhood.
"I said I'd wait until I'm done." Bai Rouying still had a thin smile on her face, "I like Jin Yu, even if I have experienced so much, I still like him until now." ”
Lu Zhan's expression darkened, and the corners of his lips immediately hooked a bitter smile.
Is it really about to start? No matter how hard he tried, no matter how much he put in, this is still the result that awaits him.
