Chapter 026: It's not me who is guarding you, who has changed
Ye Zihao, who felt teased, fell to the bottom of his mood. This is the darkest period of his life, and the unstoppable longing for Xiaoyue is the only reason for him to continue to work hard to live.
On this day, he came to the Super Brand Plaza as usual to roller skate, perhaps now he can only vent his emotions through exercise. One side of the square was crowded with people, and out of curiosity, Ye Zihao also stepped forward to take a look. It turned out that the school was recruiting outstanding roller skaters to participate in the World University Roller Skating Championships, Ye Zihao was not very interested, turned around and prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, he heard the classmates next to him discuss: "Have you heard? If you win a prize, you will receive a generous prize and a six-day swim in Columbus, the venue of the competition. ”
"Can I go to Columbus? That's not when you can see Xiaoyue. Ye Zihao was a little suspicious of his ears.
"Senior, is the competition held in Columbus?" Ye Zihao wanted to confirm.
"Yes, as long as you get the place, the organizer will also give you a free local tour." The senior's words made Ye Zihao seem to see a glimmer of light. Seeing Xiaoyue, who she hadn't seen for a long time, how excited she was in her heart. So, he hurriedly signed up for the competition.
Although, there has never been formal training in roller skating. However, because he has been exposed to this sport since he was a child, Ye Zihao's skills can be said to be leveraged. After a period of closed training before the competition, he successfully joined the national roller skating team and represented him at the World University Roller Skating Championships.
was finally able to go to Columbus, and Ye Zihao told Xiaoyue the good news as soon as possible. The two who haven't seen each other for a long time are on the phone, and after a brief greeting, all that remains is speechless. Ye Zihao was so afraid of this feeling, obviously he was worried about Xiaoyue in his heart, but why was his mouth so uncompromising, he even had the urge to smoke himself.
A week later, Ye Zihao flew to Columbus with the national roller skating team. After putting his luggage at the hotel where he was staying, he quickly called Xiaoyue. Xiaoyue asked him to wait for her outside the café where he worked.
Before going out, Ye Zihao deliberately wore a suit, he wanted Xiaoyue to know that he was mature and would no longer be as naïve as before, and he didn't know how to tolerate and love. After coming to the café, through the windowpane, she saw a middle-aged woman who seemed to be reprimanding Xiaoyue. Ye Zihao hurriedly rushed in, pulled Xiaoyue aside, and asked her what was going on?
"Oh, you don't care. She's Joanne, the proprietress of the café, and that's what she's like. Xiaoyue said a little aggrieved.
Joanne saw Ye Zihao glaring at him on the side, and became even more angry. "She can't wash her coffee cup, I can't talk about her?"
"Are you blind? It's all so clean! Ye Zihao said angrily.
Ye Zihao angrily pulled Xiaoyue out, "Don't do it, if you are short of tuition, I will give it to you." ”
"I'm here to experience life, and you don't care about my business."
"You're almost here to get angry!" Ye Zihao took Xiaoyue into his arms and gently stroked her hair. Xiaoyue felt that this man's arms were so warm, and it was still the same feeling as back then, and it hadn't changed at all.
The day of the competition is fast approaching, and it's time to show your sword. On this day, Ye Zihao sincerely invited Xiaoyue to watch the game, and with her, he would feel a lot calmer. "Listen, your task today is to cheer me on."
"Well, good luck." Xiaoyue suddenly felt that the boy who was a little young before, after not seeing him for a while, had become much more mature.
With the sound of a gunshot, the players slid in the direction like arrows off the string. One lap, two laps...... Ye Zihao, who was still a little behind at the beginning, made a force in the last lap, sprinted to the third position, and maintained it until the finish.
After the game, the first thing Ye Zihao did was to rush to the stands and give Xiaoyue a big hug. He understood that the weight of this hug was the driving force for Xiaoyue's longing, which allowed him to achieve today's results. Ye Zihao said softly to Xiaoyue: "Thank you for having you in my life." ”
In an instant, Xiaoyue was a little embarrassed and pushed Ye Zihao away. After all, the two are no longer lovers, and Xiaoyue has some mustard in her heart. Looking at the back of her leaving, Ye Zihao's heart was sour, he didn't want to leave any regrets on this trip to Columbus, so he hesitated for a moment and chased after him.
Columbus in late autumn always shows a little sunshine in his sorrow, so that people can't be too sad and leave a chance to breathe. Ye Zihao felt that his mood was like this weather, he had been depressed for too long, and finally saw a glimmer of light.
He finally caught up with Xiaoyue with one arrow step, and held her hand for a long time and was reluctant to let go. And Xiaoyue desperately broke free, "What are you doing, so many people are watching." ”
"I don't care, shall we reconcile? I really can't live without you. Ye Zihao begged.
"I think we need a while to calm down with each other." Although, Xiaoyue still has Ye Zihao in her heart. However, whenever I think of him being so determined to break up, I still feel a faint pain in my heart. After speaking, Xiaoyue took a taxi to prepare to go back to the café.
Ye Zihao felt that it was not easy to come to Columbus this time, and he couldn't go home so easily. He also quickly flagged down a taxi and followed. He thought clearly in his heart, and was ready to give the prize money of the competition to Xiaoyue, so that she would not look at Joanne's face again for the sake of tuition.
When I arrived at the door of the café, I saw Tian Yu standing next to a limited edition Rolls-Royce, holding a bouquet of roses and seeming to be waiting for someone. He still wears a straight suit and looks like a gentleman, but his eyes are not as calm as before.
Seeing Xiaoyue coming, Tian Yuzheng politely beckoned. Then, with a 90-degree bend, please let Xiaoyue get in the car.
"Why?" Xiaoyue felt inexplicable.
"It's someone's birthday, and I want to invite her to a meal at the most luxurious restaurant in Columbus." Tian Yu was looking at Xiaoyue affectionately, and the corners of his mouth showed a gentle smile.
Xiaoyue secretly thought, "Yes, today is my birthday." patronized and cheered for Ye Zihao, and almost forgot. Tian Yuzheng's carefulness poked Xiaoyue's tears a little, because of the long-lost warmth.
At this time, Ye Zihao, who saw all this in his eyes, was a little angry. He rushed forward without asking 3721 and yelled at Xiaoyue, "Who is he?" I said why don't you want to get back together with me, it turns out that you have climbed into a rich man. What's the point of me doing so much to see you? ”
"Zihao, it's not what you think. He and I are just ordinary friends. Xiaoyue hurriedly explained.
"That's not what others think, come with me." Ye Zihao grabbed Xiaoyue's hand, ready to take her away.
"Please show some respect to Miss Shi!" Tian Yuzheng stopped Ye Zihao.
Ye Zihao, who was already angry, punched Tian Yu in the face. In an instant, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
Xiaoyue saw Ye Zihao so reckless, and scolded loudly: "You get out of here, I don't want to see you again!" Then, he took out a napkin from his bag and handed it to Tian Yuzheng and asked him to wipe the blood.
Seeing Xiaoyue protecting the man in front of him like this, he was sure that she had completely changed her mind. Suddenly, Ye Zihao felt that his world was like the sky was falling apart, and it was dark. He screamed heartbreakingly and ran off the way he came.
Xiaoyue couldn't control her emotions, her body gradually squatted down, and she cried aggrievedly. At this time, a cold wind blew on the side of the street, and Tian Yu took off his coat and put it on Xiaoyue's shoulder. After Xiaoyue's mood calmed down a little, Tian Yu was driving her to the Huntington Park baseball stadium.
"Come, Xiaoyue. Let's play baseball and leave all the unpleasant things behind. Tian Yu was a little excited, doing a gesture of swinging a stick.
"But I won't." Xiaoyue shook her head helplessly.
"It's okay, I'll teach you. You attack, I defend. Use your best strength to shoot at me, haha. Tian Yuzheng, who is usually serious, turned out to have such a childish side.
Xiaoyue was a little unable to let go at first, and slowly entered the role. sent out a few beautiful balls, which provoked Tian Yuzheng to praise again and again, saying that she had potential. After more than an hour, the two of them, who had exhausted most of their physical strength, ran outside the venue to rest.
"How? Are you feeling better? Tian Yuzheng asked with concern and handed over a bottle of Coke.
"I'm in a much better mood, honestly, thank you." Xiaoyue smiled at Tian Yuzheng.
Tian Yuzheng felt that Xiaoyue's smile was so bright, just like the spring in March, how he wished that he was the one who could hold hands with Xiaoyue for the rest of his life.
Ye Zihao, who returned to the hotel, was like a defeated rooster, he had quit smoking for a long time, he asked Captain Song for a pack of cigarettes, and lit the cigarette tremblingly for a long time before gently spitting it out. One by one, the slender pale fingers were stained with cigarettes. There was loss in his eyes, perhaps more of a heartache.
Gradually, Ye Zihao fell into a deep sleep. He had a dream that Xiaoyue's brown hair slid across his face like a waterfall, it was so heartwarmingly soft. The hair has a natural undulation and curvature, falling out, making you imagine the touch of your fingertips caressing those strands. However, just as he was about to reach out and reach for it, everything came to naught.
