Chapter Ninety-Eight: Confession of Seven Youths
The sunset, she has always wanted to see, but she has never seen it.
Xu Zhengting seems to have risen this out, because the way up the mountain is really overgrown with weeds, and he has nothing to do with it, but because Su Ruo is at home, he usually wears a convenient sweater skirt.
It's been a tough walk.
Along the way, we stopped and stopped, and by the time we reached the mountain, the sun had already set halfway into the horizon, and the orange-red afterglow stained the whole sky red, soft and beautiful.
Su Ruo took Xu Zhengting's hand and climbed the top slope, taking a deep breath, she seemed to be able to understand why those poets were so majestic in ancient times, the desert was lonely, and the sun set on the long river.
She didn't even dare to gasp for breath, for fear of missing this beautiful day, there are always people who destroy such a beautiful scenery, Xu Zhengting stretched out his hand and patted her on the head, and teased incomprehensibly.
"You won't look stupid, will you?"
Su Ruobai glanced at him and said, "How did you find such a place?" "He's stupid, he's stupid, his whole family is stupid.
"Did you believe me when I said I was looking for you?" Xu Zhengting sat on the ground as soon as he looked up, his eyes were as soft as this sunset.
Su Ruo blinked, shook his head and said seriously: "I don't believe it." ”
Someone must have recommended it to him, she had been here for so long and she didn't know that there was such a mountain where she could witness the most beautiful view of the sunset, and she couldn't say if it was Mark.
Just as she was about to sit down, Xu Zhengting stopped her, took off her coat and spread it on the ground, and then motioned for her to sit down. Su Ruo was a little flattered, and for some reason his heart suddenly beat fast.
The two of them sat quietly like this, occasionally blowing a gust of wind, quietly on the hillside, Su Ruo could hear his heartbeat, the quieter it was, the clearer it became. She felt that if it wasn't dark, the flush on her face would not be hidden.
"You..."
"You..."
The two of them spoke at the same time, stopped at the same time, and glanced at each other, Su Ruo quickly glanced at the beginning, Xu Zhengting laughed when he saw this, and heard her say calmly: "You speak first." ”
He looked at the sunset, which had completely set, stretched out his hand to the orange-red sky and asked, "Ruoruo, do you believe in fate?" ”
Su Ruo looked sideways at his side face, shook his head and nodded again, and said, "I don't believe it, but I believe it, I don't believe in fate, but I believe in the Lord." ”
"Really?" Xu Zhengting said softly, and then sneered, "I don't believe it, I only believe in myself, everything has to be fought for by myself." ”
Su Ruo could not deny this view, but still insisted: "The Lord will watch over each of His disciples in heaven and bless them." ”
After being silent for a while, he spoke, "Su Ruo." ”
Su Ruo: "Huh? ”
He said, "Hands out." ”
Su Ruo: "Huh? ”
He added, "Hands out." ”
Su Ruo: "Oh. ”
She didn't know what he was going to do, but he wouldn't hurt herself, and with this understanding, she was relieved to stretch out her hand obediently.
Xu Zhengting looked at her fixedly, took out a silver bracelet from his pocket, stroked it gently, then opened it and put it on her hand, and said in a low voice: "This is yours, I don't want it." ”
The cold touch on her wrist made Su Ruo smart, she looked at him with wide eyes in surprise, and then raised her hand, she touched it, and it was still the crystal that hung on, which she threw to him that day.
He gave it to her, she gave it back to him, and now he gave it to her again.
Xu Zhengting said softly: "The bracelet will be returned to you, forget the past, just treat it as if nothing happened, how about it." ”
Then start over, this time he won't hesitate, and he won't let her go.
Su Ruo didn't speak, just looked at him quietly, his eyes were very calm, but not calm, she lowered her eyelids, her fingers flipped the bracelet, forgetting that it was before, it sounded very simple, how difficult it was.
Did she forget about Lindong? Or did you forget Xu Zhengyan you met there? Or his wife, or Zeng Yue? Or did you forget that you were splashed with dog blood?
Su Ruo found that she could now think of these things very indifferently, and her calm appearance made Su Ruo not know if it was these things that she couldn't forget, or if she said something else.
She looked up, and the last bit of afterglow had already dissipated, followed by a little starlight, the color of the starry sky like his eyes, blue and deep.
She felt a little tightness in her chest.
"Can you tell me what's engraved in the crystal?"
Xu Zhengting was stunned, stretched out his hand to cover the bracelet, stared at her and said, "It's you, Su Ruo." This is what I asked the store to write in French, and they all say that French is the most beautiful language in the world. ”
Su Ruo avoided his gaze and asked with a light smile: "You chase the little girl with these means, right?" ”
His hand suddenly clenched a little, Su Ruo, who was in the bracelet, was a little uncomfortable, she wanted to pull her hand out, but he held it tighter.
Xu Zhengting took a breath, then dragged her in front of him, and said word by word: "Su Ruo, let me tell you, I, Xu Zhengting, have chased you in my life." ”
"Before you, other people wanted to climb into my bed and be my girlfriend, but they just took what they wanted, they got the attention of money, and I maintained my image."
"Frankly speaking, those are just the images I created on the outside, do you understand? I don't want any movie stars, and I don't want any little girls. ”
"What I need is not someone who can support me and help me seize power, from beginning to end, all I want is you!"
Su Ruo was stunned in place, listening to his words, there seemed to be a string in her heart that suddenly tightened, and she blurted out: "But I said so much and did so many ruthless words and things, don't you mind?" ”
Xu Zhengting: "I don't take it to heart. ”
Bullshit!
What does it mean not to take it to heart!
If you don't take it to heart, he will send this bracelet back and put it on her personally, saying "It's yours, I don't want it"?
Su Ruo didn't believe his words at all, not to mention that the pimple in her heart couldn't be eliminated: "But I don't mind, I can't pretend that all this has not happened." ”
She could always remember what she had said to him, the words that kept him away from her, and the lonely back of him when she resolutely left.
Xu Zhengyan's back appeared in front of her eyes, he was still the same unsmiling look, followed by Fang Qin's, Zeng Yue's, and everyone who had seen it appeared in front of her eyes.
Everything that happened in Lindong was like a movie, replayed little by little.
finally stopped on the day she got on the boat, that day, she felt that she would never have an intersection with Lindong again, in order to cut off Xu Zhengyan's thoughts, she still didn't answer that phone call in the end.
In order to break Xu Zhengting's thoughts, she simply didn't even leave a way back, and they didn't owe each other, but he chased him to Xi'an, and now the bracelet is back in her hand, it's really a drama.
Xu Zhengting suppressed his voice, and there was some unspeakable pain in his deep voice: "Su Ruo, do you have to take out my heart for you so that you can understand that I am telling the truth?" ”
"You should know ......"
"I know." Su Ruo sighed, and the string that was tense at that time in her heart finally couldn't bear to break at this moment.
She approached him with a gentle hug and a gentle answer.
It all seemed so clear and natural.
Xu Zhengting's body stiffened the moment she leaned over, and then her eyes turned from confusion to ecstasy, her hands around him, her head resting on his chest, he reached out to hold her, making her closer to him.
Su Ruo chuckled lightly and said seriously, "Xu Zhengting, I'm sorry." "This is for what she said against her heart before, what she did against her will, and I am sorry to him.
Xu Zhengting's face froze, and she continued as she listened.
She thought for a moment, sniffed, buried her head in his arms, and smashed her soft and smiling voice directly into his heart.
"But, I like you, Su Ruo likes Xu Zhengting."
yes, I like it.
If you don't like it, your heart won't hurt, if you don't like it, you won't be sad because of his loneliness, if you don't like it, you won't be angry because of the appearance of other women, and if you don't like it, you won't be afraid of him getting hurt.
Also, I won't run out with him without hesitation and without thinking.
How much do you like that? She didn't know.
She has always been reluctant to admit it, or rather, afraid to admit it.
She thought that she had given a heart to Xu Zhengyan, and she liked it carefully, but in the end she was vulnerable in the face of reality. It is not him who has always protected himself and accompanied him.
When she curled up alone and licked her wounds, it was he who stayed by her side, and it was he who used his way to heal his wounds, but she was hurting him with her own self-righteousness, so she minded.
As early as Lindong, when Mu Yunsheng appeared, she should have liked him, so she felt that he was dazzling when he was with her.
"My heart is not made of stone, whether you believe it or not, I liked you early on, and I don't lie to you."
Su Ruo was a little embarrassed, she had grown so big, and it was the first time that she confessed to someone like this or a big girl in a sedan chair. She was afraid that what she said was not detailed and true, and people didn't believe it, so she only emphasized it vigorously.
Xu Zhengting's hands were trembling, and the unnaturalness on his face all collapsed when she said that she liked him, he hugged her tightly and buried his head in her neck, unable to calm down for a long time.
She said that she liked him, and she said that Su Ruo liked Xu Zhengting.
"Ruoruo, tell me, am I dreaming?"
He was ready for her to reject him, although after this period of time together, her attitude changed a lot, and she even indulged some of his intimate actions intentionally or unintentionally.
He didn't think about it all the time, he didn't think about whether she liked him, or if she liked herself a long time ago, and her accentuated tone made him amused, but he could understand it for the first time.
Hearing this, Su Ruo twisted the meat on his waist hard and asked, "Does it hurt?" ”
"It hurts."
Xu Zhengting laughed, it hurts, it's real.
