Chapter 24: The Long Journey (1)

"Chen Ying, how did you think of being an exchange student?" Wang Yi asked.

Chen Ying looked at his eyes, and the large amount of blood in them just now faded a little. He leaned over her, trying to make a relaxed position.

"I know that such a question must be stupid." He went on to say, "Looks like in half an hour, we'll be at Berlin Airport, and I'm going to get out of this plane, and I'm going to leave -- you." ”

Seeing that she did not answer, he continued:

"Since I was a child, I have been studying and living like this, and I used to think that as long as I have friends, I can live like this. It wasn't until I participated in Model United Nations during this year's winter vacation and met you that I understood what love is. In order to see you often, I went as a teaching assistant for linear algebra classes; In order to have the opportunity to take care of you, I went to participate in the activities of the Love Club; In order to stay with you, I applied for this exchange abroad - but unfortunately I couldn't go to the same country as you in the end. Probably this is fate telling me that I shouldn't expect too much about fate that doesn't belong to me - just like when I met you, it was also after Qin Hong. I heard Ye Feng say that you met on the campus BBS - in fact, I looked through the past posts and found that I had also sent you a letter - it should be that I was too careless and did not leave contact information - if I had written an extra phone number at that time, maybe the result would have been completely different. Now I can only look at you from afar, trying not to be noticed by others to care about you - I don't want to hurt Qin Hong, and I don't want you to embarrass you, I just hope you can promise me - in Denmark, if you suffer any grievances and encounter any difficulties, you must tell me, okay? ”

Even in such a dimly lit cabin, his eyes could be seen shining, and he looked at her earnestly, convincing her that it was by no means an elaborate joke. She looked at the tormented person in front of her, and her heart was full of sympathy and gratitude. She silently lifted the armrest that had been placed between the seats, leaned in the middle, and pulled his trembling hand and placed it gently beside her cheek.

"Wang Yi ......," she said softly.

She could see his tears in the darkness, falling like crystal balls, disappearing into the cracks of his clothes. She wiped it with the back of her hand, trying not to attract the attention of her classmates on the other side of the aisle. He shuddered and stopped her.

"I'm fine." He whispered, taking a deep breath. Then he took out his mobile phone from his coat pocket, untied the hanging dzi, and tied it to her mobile phone: "This is said to keep you safe, and if you encounter anything difficult, you don't have to be afraid." ”

"It's your talisman, I can't ask for it." She excused herself.

"Take it, it's all my heart." He shoved his phone back into her palm, "Don't do so many part-time jobs, have time to rest, and pay attention to your body." ”

A few minutes later, the in-cabin radio sounded, and all passengers were asked to return to their seats, fasten their seatbelts, and wait for landing. During the bumpy landing, Chen Ying felt her heart rise and fall due to irregular weightlessness. Wang Yi grabbed her hand and tried his best to alleviate her pain with his own strength. His hands were hot, warming her cold fingers.

With one last violent jolt, the plane successfully landed at Grandenburg International Airport. The sun was about to set, and the sunset was all over the window, and the afterglow lit up the whole sky, and the land of Germany was unfolding in front of them. Passengers who had experienced a long flight were in a commotion, and the portholes were opened, and many people took pictures with their cameras.

"I'm leaving. Send a letter to Copenhagen. Wang Yi hurriedly put on his backpack and looked at Chen Ying reluctantly.

Berlin is the only stopover and destination for most people. Only a very small number remained on the plane to continue their journey to Denmark. Chen Ying's back gradually shrank in front of the long queue. He kept looking back before leaving the hatch, waving slightly goodbye to her.

After the flight attendant checks the ticket, the plane taxith into the take-off runway again. The number of passengers on board was reduced to one-sixth of the original size, and the remaining passengers enjoyed the vacant seats. Tiredness spreads before the next take-off, and many people snooze in the row of seats in the middle. As soon as night fell, the lights of the airport mingled with the newborn stars. It was a strange land, and she had never even stepped on it herself, but the shadows of the trees and the occasional birds in the distance had become kind. She did her best to look out, trying to keep everything in mind.

"Take care." Chen Ying said silently in her heart.

Chen Ying spent the rest of the journey with two other girls. They all came from the same school of journalism as her, and they were as tired and excited as Chen Ying at the moment. After another round of heart-to-heart challenges, the plane returned to the air. As she spiraled upward, Chen Ying saw the night view of Berlin through the window. It was a brightly lit patch of light, neatly arranged along the streets, large and small, as orderly as the obsessive-compulsive disorder of the German nation. Soon, the light was left behind, and the plane headed north in the night sky, and I don't know if it was because of the darkness or the clouds, and the window soon became a blur, and nothing could be seen.

"It's one o'clock in the morning." Chen Ying looked at the watch on her wrist. At this time, it has just entered August Beijing time, and Europe is still stuck at the tip of July. She needed to adjust the time so she could determine when she would be able to meet the person picking her up. However, there is no watch around, and the clock hanging in the middle of the aisle still shows Beijing time.
