Chapter 21: The Past Is Empty, Like a Dream (1
Chapter 21βThe Past Is Empty, Like a Dream (1)
Since he appeared, I really wanted to be Yu Boya, play a song of the heart, use my enthusiasm, my tenderness, and my fragile heart, hoping that he can hear it. Clinker, providence makes people, and the sound of the piano comes to an abrupt end, leaving a void in the air.
I don't know where my lost notes should fall, and I don't know where my broken heart will go.
############
It's been a long time since it's rained, and today it's raining again. The heart is as if it has been moistened after thirst for a long time, and it is very comfortable. If the rain is lighter, you can take a dip in the rain. But the wind and the rain struck the umbrella violently, and the rain continued to fall sharply from the edge of the umbrella like beads with broken threads. Ho, it's hard to find that comfortable feeling.
In this afternoon's English listening class, I listened to an English song "OneSweetDay" written for a deceased friend. The hoarse and lingering voice contains a sad melody, which is deeply moving, and it deserves to be the top of the American singles chart.
At night, stepping on the footsteps of raindrops and the melody of the sound of rain, I walked on the way to the classroom. When I looked up, strings of raindrops fell obliquely around the street lamps, white and mist, and misty and rainy.
Walking to the school gate, I heard Zhou Huajian's "Wind and Rain" playing in the loudspeaker from a distance:
Give you all I have, you are my only bet in this life, leaving only a period of time, so that I have no regrets
Wholeheartedly pay, afraid that you will be sad, afraid that you will cry, afraid that you will be lonely, afraid that you will be lonely, the red dust will be thousands of miles away, I can go to the morning and twilight, give you a way of mine, you are my life's non-stop footsteps, let me walk out of a sky, let you fly to your heart's content, rest assured to chase......
The light, warm melody made my heart rush through and smile in the rain. It's been a long time since I've felt this feeling. It turns out that rainy days are not necessarily lonely and melancholy, but you can also have a sunny and clear mood like spring water!
This good mood lasted until noon on Saturday. Because I saw Yu Haibin again. He helped me last time I fainted, but I didn't see him in person, and it's been a full month since I last saw him on his birthday. This month, I occasionally met in the big classroom, but I didn't speak. The fate of each other is over, and there is nothing left.
At noon I went downstairs to get ready to go to the restaurant for dinner. When I was three steps away from going down to the first floor, I saw something I didn't want to see.
Yu Haibin was still wearing his dark brown jeans and a warm shirt with a beige and light blue checkered background. He didn't know what he had just finished talking to You Yingying, who looked up slightly, her shoulder-length hair, as smooth as black silk, shimmered in the sunlight with a charming white halo. Yu Haibin smiled and put his hand into her hair to mess up her hair, You Yingying said angrily: "What are you doing......
Then they went away side by side, their backs to me, and of course they did not see the sorrowful anger in my eyes, which burned my heart so badly, I know, I know at last......
In the afternoon, I went to the library to read a book. I thought that I could forget everything by reading a book, but it backfired, my eyes were fixed on the book, but my mind kept thinking about the scene I saw at noon, maybe they were just going out on business, no, Saturday! Maybe Yu Haibin's action was inadvertent, no, that doting look was obviously ...... Crazy in my head. I had to return the books I borrowed last time, and hurriedly found two books to scan the code to borrow, and I didn't see how the content was, so I put them in my shoulder bag.
Just as I was putting the book in my shoulder bag, something hard touched my hand. I suddenly remembered that it was the porcelain puppy whistle that I had glued together.
Sure enough, I saw Lin Ziqian running laps on the court by the Moon Lake again. It was cold. There were only Lin Ziqian and an unknown boy on the field. When it's cold, there are naturally fewer girls watching. I only saw a familiar Meng Jiancong and another strange girl.
"Lin Ziqian!" I shouted from afar, and when I saw him coming, I threw the whistle in my hand to him, "Catch it, don't fall again, I just glued it." β
Lin Ziqian caught it very smoothly, his crescent-like eyebrows and eyes were ruthless, and he said in a disdainful tone: "Hmph! When I'm a garbage picker, give me a broken one! I've sent you, Qi Wanyun! β
He ignored me, and his face turned pale for a moment. "That's my grandfather......" I stopped my mouth with both anger and great pride, and just glanced at Lin Ziqian with my eyes, and saw him throw the ball with a smug face.
I saw a very handsome girl take the porcelain whistle with a flushed face. After a slight pause, he said to me with a smile: "It's better to return the things to their original owners!" "She gave me the whistle." Thank you! This whistle means a lot to me. "Can you blow it? I want to hear it. Qi Wanyun said with a smile.
I like this gentle and understanding girl in my heart, and after I took the whistle, I blew it, and the whistle sounded in the empty playground in winter. The boy walked over and smiled softly and said, "You like this, Wanyun?" β
"I like it!" "I'll keep an eye out for you another day! This student doesn't know what to call it, so please ask where you bought it? He said, with a gentle voice, which is a good match for Qi Wanyun.
"My name is He Qingyin, 02 Chinese." "My name is Qin Fanghua, I am from the Department of Finance of 01 Business School, this is my girlfriend Qi Wanyun, and I study accounting in the same department. We're glad to meet you! "The boy reached out to shake my hand very casually.
I hesitated, then politely reached out to shake his hand. "Oh, Senior Brother Qin, look up for a long time!" It turned out that the one in front of him was the legendary genius, Qin Fanghua, who served as the head of the literary club as a science student, and disgraced the talented women of the entire Academy of Letters. Looking at this opportunity, I took a closer look at him, and it turned out to be an ordinary boy, with very ordinary facial features, a little big mouth, and ears close to the head, which was a little funny. In contrast, he is not as good as Lin Ziqian, who is outstanding, has a luxurious bearing, and has a super dusty demeanor.
"Isn't it just a broken whistle, what's so funny, you're still so interested." The girl who came over was wearing rose-colored leggings, seven-inch black high heels, and a white slim down jacket. It turned out to be Meng Jiancong who I met in the jewelry store that time. She seems to have forgotten about me, though. Sure enough, I'm the kind of ordinary person that others forget about it.
"Oh, my grandfather bought it for me, if you want it, I'll buy you one when I get home." I ignored Meng Jiancong's words, blinking and talking to Qi Wanyun.
"Thank you! I'm waiting! "The clever Qi Wanyun understood my words. Meng Jiancong sat bored and watched Lin Ziqian shoot.
"You play here, if it's cold, go back, I'll play with Ziqian for a while!" Qin Fanghua said to Qi Wanyun, and by the way, she tightened the scarf around her neck. I saw the sweetness of the two, smiled and looked at Qi Wanyun with a flushed face, and thought, what a beautiful name, people are like their names, and their faces are flushed like evening clouds on the horizon.
I put the whistle back in place, looked at the sun and saw that it was still early, and when I looked at my watch, it was only past three o'clock in the afternoon. I sat on the edge of the playground with Qi Wanyun and Meng Jiancong, listening to the wind blowing over the Moon Lake, swishing and whistling......
Last winter, in December. After learning basketball for three months, he barely passed the three-step layup, but he didn't throw the ball in place once, and he scored zero points. The physical education teacher said that the three of us would have another chance to make up the exam, and the next time we failed in physical education class, we would have to record it in credits. I went to Yu Haibin anxiously, crying and talking about the reason, but he laughed and said, let me teach you, next time you will pass the test.
At noon, when the wind was still howling, Yu Haibin and I came to the playground. There is still snow on the edge of the playground in winter. Basketball hoops stand there, like tall giants, and the baskets are dancing in the wind to make a look of devouring people. I looked at the basket and was terrified.
Yu Haibin first asked me to vote a few times, but I still didn't win. Sometimes, the basketball just spins around the hoop and then spins out, as if deliberately not wanting to get in. I hate it.
Yu Haibin carefully observed it for a while. He took the ball and posed for me to see.
"Look at my hands, I want to hold the ball like this, with the tiger's mouth of both hands facing each other, thumb to thumb, and holding the ball up like this. It's not like you're holding the ball. "When I looked closely, he had big hands, but they were very good-looking, his complexion was slightly dark, his joints were well-proportioned, and his nails were rounded and full.
"Now I'll try it for you!" He spoke suddenly, and I was still immersed in the admiration of these hands, and I was in a trance for a moment. "Hey, He Qingyin!" I looked up and met Yu Haihai's sly smile, "What's wrong?" β
"Nothing! Let me try it! "I took the ball and did as he said." Is that so? "No, I said, that's right!" Yu Haibin's hand covered my hand, carefully correcting the position of each finger.
It was cold and cold, but I really felt the warmth between his fingers. He was so close, his breath could be smelled, he was chewing Green Arrow's mint gum, and the warm wind blowing from him was tickling in his ears. I suddenly remembered the last time I had kissed his earlobe when he carried me down the stairs. I thought: If he is so close, will he be ...... Worried and longing at the same time, what a contradiction!
But nothing happened. He teaches one by one and is a competent teacher.
"That's right, that's it, your hands are too small, you don't have enough strength to catch the ball, it's much easier with bigger hands." He said as he demonstrated how easily he lifted the ball. "Didn't you already know that my hands were small! I can't change it! "I thought, we didn't hold hands when we crossed the street, you know my hands are small!
"Alright, let's not talk about that! Here's how to pitch! After this posture and this angle are grasped, when throwing, don't keep your eyes on the basket, do you see, there is a square area on the top of the basket, you hit that area, come! Enter! "He lifted my waist and posed for me, his hand grabbed my arm and I pressed in the direction of his hand. A handsome pitch that left me dumbfounded.
"Wow! In, in! I grabbed the corner of his coat and shouted excitedly. You're such a great teacher! "What is this, I shot six out of six during the test, and every time I hit a three-point shot!" When he saw me looking at him with adoring eyes, he proudly showed off, very childishly, and his sword eyebrows were even more vigorous, one by one, like a flying black swallow. "Yes, it's a pity, boys and girls take the exam separately, I didn't see it!" I said with great regret.
"Who's that?" Yu Haibin saw a bicycle stop by the Moon Lake, so he asked me. "Which one?" "The one who rides the bike!" "Oh, isn't that Lin Ziqian, he and I are high school classmates!" I say.
"Oh, it was him! The prince of broadcasting who fascinated many girls......"
"Oh, in addition to 'Cold Face Xiao Lang', he has other nicknames, it's still good." I said and continued with my shots......
I still remember that at that time, Moon Lake had not been frozen for a long time, just like our feelings, which had not yet fallen to freezing.
I still remember that at that time, Yu Haihai was full of energy, and his gestures were chic and handsome, which made me secretly emotional, but he did not move, standing in the west wind.
Lin Ziqian remembered that he had seen He Qingyin and Yu Haibin in this basketball playground. That was a year ago they were playing basketball. Lin Ziqian thought to himself: These two people who are in love are interesting, everyone else goes to the cinema, and they all talk about the basketball court! He Qingyin's laughter and laughter could be heard from afar, ringing like a silver bell. I thought she would be happy forever, not knowing how good it would be to be sad...... Qin Fanghua and Qi Wanyun have already left. Only Meng Jiancong and He Qingyin were still sitting there. He Qingyin just stared at the Moon Lake opposite, his expression was in a trance, and his eyes were sad.
"Meng Jiancong, you go back first!" Lin Ziqian said while pitching. "Why? Didn't you say you'd go with me......" Meng Jiancong asked puzzled.
"It's windy, it's cold!" Lin Ziqian replied lightly, without a trace of emotion. "Isn't she still there," Meng Jiancong pointed to He Qingyin, who was still in a daze next to him, and said, "We're not cold." β
"Go back, I don't want to say it a second time!" Lin Ziqian's tone was like ice. "Lin Ziqian, you are talking back!" "yes, you just found out today, it's too late." Lin Ziqian said with a smile instead, his deep voice was a little charming because of this smile at this time.
"I don't want to leave, what can you do with me!" Meng Jiancong felt that no one had ever spoken to her like this. She is a princess in the eyes of everyone, and it is too late for others to look up, only Lin Ziqian has hurt her self-esteem repeatedly. It is impossible for Lin Ziqian not to know that she likes him.
"I want to say a few words to He Qingyin, do you want to be a light bulb?" Meng Jiancong didn't expect Lin Ziqian to say it so bluntly, so he was speechless and wanted to leave angrily.
"What kind of light bulb are you talking about? Oh...... I'm sorry, then I'll go first......" He Qingyin came back to his senses and heard the words "light bulb", and thought about it carefully, he was really a light bulb. I had to turn around and leave.
"It's just her, when the light bulb doesn't light up!" Meng Jiancong looked at He Qingyin's back and said loudly, as if she couldn't hear it. Lin Ziqian glanced at Meng Jiancong fiercely, expressing his dissatisfaction with her vicious words. "What are you staring at me for! Hey, Lin Ziqian, you, you stop for me! β
Lin Ziqian never ignored Meng Jiancong's words, and quickly ran away to chase He Qingyin. At the moment of lifting his feet, he felt that he couldn't forgive himself: "Why do you always get angry when you see her sad look, why do you always feel distressed after she runs away...... Lin Ziqian, are you already ......?"
"He Qingyin, let me tell you, I don't want to break it, I want a new ......" Lin Ziqian closed his mouth at the moment He Qingyin turned around, because he saw He Qingyin's eyes reddening and tears rolling in his eyes.
"Don't mind, Meng Jiancong is open-mouthed, in fact, she ......" Lin Ziqian said apologetically.
"Lin Ziqian, you don't need to explain......" He Qingyin turned his head and left.
"I didn't know that the whistle was given to you by your grandfather......" Lin Ziqian said behind He Qingyin.
He Qingyin turned his head at this time, tears dripping, and the pear vortex was full of sadness. "Lin Ziqian, I'm begging you, stay away from me......" Lin Ziqian's heart was colder than ice.
Lin Ziqian stood still, pondering the past, like in a dream, tears dropping. The breeze blows through the gall bottle plum, and the heart has turned to ashes.
"I'm sorry, Lin Ziqian...... "My sadness is not because of Meng Jiancong's words, not because of your broken whistle, but because the past is like a sea, the past is like smoke, and he broke off his relationship with me."
