Chapter 467: Is It Him?
() The top of the mountain at night is quiet, and the starry sky at night is gorgeous.
Tom took Catherine's hand and led her across the grass to the observation deck at the top of the hill, "Catherine, there are many legends about the stars. Some say that they are the embodiment of every deceased loved one, some say that they are God's eyes to observe the changes of the world, and some say that they are the medium to communicate the past and the future, what do you think they are? ”
Tom looked sideways at Catherine, just at the angle of the backlight, which made it even more angular.
Catherine was a little cramped, "I...... I feel that the stars are the eyes of a child. ”
As soon as the words fell, Catherine became even more nervous, "I...... I might not be able to describe it. ”
Tom smiled gently, "Is it because of innocence?" ”
"Hmm!"
Lin Fengshan is like a paradise, which can cleanse people's hearts of sinister and soothe emotional irritability. And this former healing shrine has once again shown its miraculous effect today.
"What about you, what do you think stars are?" Catherine's voice was soft, as if she were afraid of disturbing the silence.
"The stars are your eyes." Tom stared into Catherine's eyes.
Catherine was ingested in those eyes full of sincerity, but her heart was still struggling, no, Catherine, you can't fall into it, he doesn't love you.
Catherine forced herself to tilt her head, avoiding his gaze.
Tom didn't stop her, and told his story, "Actually, I don't remember the first time I was here, maybe I was very young, maybe I was a teenager and a half. Since then, I have often come here alone, sometimes because of the entanglement of right and wrong at home, and sometimes because my career is not satisfactory. Tom let out a long breath, "Do you know the kind of thing that looks at a person and a place takes root in his heart, and then the roots gradually penetrate, and watch it flourish, watch it rise from the ground, watch a little self trim in the shade of a tree, and then get back on the road?" ”
Catherine smiled wryly, how did I not know?
"And watching it grow, I'm even indulgent." Tom hooked the corners of his lips, "People in the world often say that people with great ambitions should not have weaknesses, but how happy I am, every day I see it stretch an inch long, every day I see it swaying in the breeze, stretching its beautiful body, showing off its power in my heart, at that moment I am extremely excited." He laughed softly as he spoke.
Catherine was a little unable to react for a moment, but there was an irrepressible joy in her heart that wanted to gush out, and she remembered Tom's nervous, sincere, or concerned gaze, but the gains and losses that had been all the time suppressed this mood.
But, perhaps, can she, look forward to it?
"On the way here, I always wonder what kind of feelings I have for you, but every time I am about to get it
Retreated when the answer came. Tom looked at Catherine warmly, and the corners of his mouth slowly pulled away, "I realized for the first time that I was so weak. ”
Catherine couldn't help but hold her breath.
"Qiufeng Mountain is really a blessed place, the answer that makes me retreat, the answer that points to you, those words that I thought I couldn't say, can be poured out here one by one."
"You! You obviously didn't say anything! Catherine's cheeks were slightly red, and she didn't know whether she was angry or shy.
Tom coughed in disguise and met Catherine's gaze, "It's ......"
"Didi~Dididi~" Suddenly the phone rang, Catherine opened her bag in a panic, and she didn't have time to see whose phone it was, so she slid to pick it up.
Tom also avoided his gaze and coughed slightly.
"Hey, hello, I'm Catherine."
"Catherine, are you home?" The person who called was none other than Lin Qingyue.
Catherine looked at the man beside her, "Not yet, Tom brought me to Autumn Maple Mountain." ”
"Oh, that's right." Lin Qingyue's right hand unconsciously tapped the back cover of the phone.
"Well, he said take me to see the stars!"
"Oh~ then you go on." Lin Qingyue heard Catherine's slightly faster defense more like she wanted to cover up, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Sister Qingyue!"
"Okay, okay, it's going to be late, keep warm at the top of the mountain and don't get cold."
"Okay, Sister Qingyue." Catherine obediently responded.
Lin Qingyue just hung up the phone here, and told Gu Xibei about it.
"Tom took Catherine to the mountains to see the stars." Spread his hands, as if helpless.
"These two people can be regarded as a model of the authorities' fans."
Lin Qingyue nodded, thinking deeply.
"Tom hadn't been interested in the little girl before, so he was a little sluggish, and when he understood his feelings, he would take the initiative."
Lin Qingyue glanced at Gu Xibei and kicked his leg with his foot.
"I'm also sluggish! I have been brewing in my heart for a long time! But I was smarter than him because I woke up early, and I could see at a glance which person I was going to be with for the rest of my life. Gu Xibei took Lin Qingyue's hand and kissed it lightly.
A room is fragrant, and the spring is beautiful.
The next day, Lin Qingyue came to visit Tom and wanted to remind them so that Catherine could reap happiness as soon as possible.
Lin Qingyue was just about to knock on the door, but the maid hurriedly trotted over and led her into the door.
"Miss Lin, sit down for a while." The maid brought Lin Qingyue a glass of milk, "The master is handling some work upstairs, let me invite the young lady in first, he is a horse."
Up and down. ”
Lin Qingyue nodded, picked up the cup, and took a sip.
The maid quietly retreated, and Lin Qingyue walked to the floor-to-ceiling window with milk and looked at it from afar.
Tom's house is located in the suburbs, a group of villas built many years ago, with a huge green area, even today, it can be called the "lungs of the city".
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows is a garden with all kinds of flowers competing for beauty, and a gardener comes and goes.
Lin Qingyue narrowed his eyes slightly, that person was a little familiar.
Lin Qingyue's eyes followed the man's movements, slowly sorting out his memories, trying his best to find to coincide this familiar back with a figure in his mind.
When Tom came down from the upper floor, he saw Lin Qingyue looking at the floor-to-ceiling window with a pensive expression.
"Qingyue, what are you looking at?"
A question said that Lin Qingyue woke up from thinking.
"Oh, I look at that figure with a familiar look." Lin Qingyue pointed to the man in the garden.
"So you're talking about Richard, he's been working here for a long time."
"Richard?"
Seeing Lin Qingyue's puzzled face, Tom shouted to the garden, "Richard! ”
The man in the garden turned and waved at him, smiling profusely.
Lin Qingyue was shocked, this person looked like his father Lin Heng!
Tom turned his head slightly, and his hand shook in front of Lin Qingyue, "What's the matter, it depends on your uncertainty?" ”
Lin Qingyue took another sip of milk and walked towards the sofa, "It's nothing." ”
"You said he's been working here for a long time, why haven't you seen him before?"
"Maybe it's not a coincidence, right, just missed ......? Maybe you didn't pay attention before. ”
"Where is he from?" Lin Qingyue asked tentatively.
"This ...... I don't know, he was the one my aunt saved a few years ago, and we don't know much about his past. ”
"Oh, that's right." Lin Qingyue hid the shock and doubts in his heart, and prepared to go back to investigate and make plans. "How are you and Catherine?"
Tom rubbed his curly hair with his hand in embarrassment, "That's it, that's it." ”
Lin Qingyue looked at his expression and already understood.
"Just last night after you called, I'll ......," Tom said, scratching his face and pausing again," she said she thought about it. ”
Lin Qingyue looked at Tom's smirk, and sighed silently in his heart, you two can really toss, but it's finally over.
The goal was achieved, Lin Qingyue didn't stay long, and shirked that Gu Xibei would leave first if he had something.
