I listened to him, took a sip of beer, and Lin Jun lit another cigarette.

"She hadn't made such a different impression on me before, I just thought she was one of the many beautiful girls in the school, but the attention of that summer afternoon changed my impression of her forever. She's not a pretty girl in the usual sense of the word, at least that's what I think. Although she also has a good looks, she can't see the arrogance that girls who pretend to be reserved because they have beautiful faces. Until now, I can't say exactly what it feels like, but it's probably a force that can purify some irrational impulse hidden in the heart of adolescent boys, like a sense of holiness after baptism! A kind of purity that every boy dreams of when facing a beautiful girl! It's like the soothing power of the soft sun. Later, I also went to see a poetry recitation competition organized by the school she participated in, that day she was still wearing that white dress, but her hair was tied back of her head, that day she recited "Bitan" in the afterglow, I listened to her reciting romantic poems in the audience, that poem I still make me feel a trace of beautiful sorrow, my own reflection, the boat of emotions that have passed away in the distance. After the recitation, the audience burst into applause after a few seconds of silence. Because of her outstanding recitation talent, she won the first prize that time. People are often like this, when they discover the advantages of a stranger, other advantages will also be displayed in front of them one by one, just like looking at a beautiful sculpture from a different angle, and discovering something new from a different angle! Her affectionate expression at that time made me even more moved by her like never before! Maybe it's because I was so impressed with her on the playground that day! So one sleepless night, I decided to draw a picture of her on campus that day and the scene at that time and give it to her. So from the next day onwards, I was painting that watercolor every night. Because of the dedication to the painting, the painting was handled very delicately. I drew more than 20 drafts of that painting before I finalized and colored it, and after I finished it, I bought a beautiful frame, carefully packed it inside, and then wrapped it in light blue wrapping paper. The next thing is to think about how to give it to her. Sent directly to her class and had her open at that moment? No way! She shouldn't be the kind of girl who loves vanity. Stopping her on her way out of school would have been too abrupt. After thinking about it, I finally fell into the cliché and decided to write a note and forward it to her through a familiar classmate who worked upstairs! The note reads: "I beg your pardon for taking the liberty of giving you a small gift that I hope you will receive, because it does not belong to anyone else, and because only you are entitled to have it!" If you can, please wait for me at the main entrance of the auditorium after school! At the end of the note, I didn't write my name, but replaced my name with the words 'from the floor and work'. After the note was sent, I began to imagine what it would be like after school in my self-study class, and I might be rejected and walked away. Or you might ignore it and walk out of the school gate after school as if you hadn't seen the note! There is also the possibility of being educated and reprimanded by her, and the old tunes such as should be studied hard now, etc., etc., etc., etc Anyway, the note has already been sent, no matter what happens, you can only wait! If she refuses, then I will give this painting to myself and never open it again! At this time, I no longer drank beer, but listened to Lin Jun continue, holding a lighter in his hand and turning it around skillfully.
