Chapter 33: Thoughts Through Time and Space
In order to help Yi Feng fight depression, Chen Youyou plans to renovate Yi Feng's home.
On the weekend, Chen Youyou asked Yi Feng to accompany her to the mall to shop, of course the woman on the tip of her heart had to be spoiled, but what Yi Feng didn't expect was that everything she bought was all for him.
They made a beeline for the Home & Life Museum.
"Hello, I need a pillow for this gentleman, please get a few more, let's give it a try." Chen Youyou said to the waiter.
Yi Feng looked at Chen Youyou with a puzzled expression.
Chen Youyou pointed to the several pillows brought by the waiter, "The pillow must be comfortable to sleep well." ”
Chen Youyou laid out the pillow and pushed Yi Feng to sit on the bed, "Lie down and try it." ”
Yi Feng slowly lay down and rested his head on the pillow.
"How does it feel?" Chen Youyou lowered her head and asked Yi Feng, and the two of them faced each other with a lot of ambiguity, but she was too focused on choosing a pillow and didn't notice that Yi Feng had already blushed.
"It's a little too soft."
Chen Youyou sat down on Yi Feng's side, held up his head, and pulled out the pillow under him and put another pillow on it.
"Yang, what about this? You feel it. ”
Yi Feng's mind was full of Chen Youyou's actions at this moment, she and Lin Qingqing looked too similar, if it weren't for the difference in personality, he would feel as if he had returned to eighteen years ago, and was accompanying Lin Qingqing to walk the road she didn't have time to take.
Yi Feng was glad that Chen Youyou called him to be a bird, because if two similar people called him Yi Feng, then the pain he deposited in his heart would be awakened again and again, and he couldn't tell whether he loved her like Lin Qingqing or herself.
At this moment, Yi Feng's heart became clearer and clearer, Chen Youyou is Chen Youyou, she is not a substitute for anyone, he loves her only because she is Chen Youyou, the kind-hearted, optimistic and lovely girl, he wants to protect her with his life.
"Phew...?"
Yi Feng came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly, "This pillow is not bad." ”
The waiter handed Chen Youyou a pillow of the same style, and Chen Youyou lay on the pillow, "It's really comfortable, I see you're about to fall asleep." ”
Yi Feng turned to the waiter and said, "We want four pillows." ”
"Okay, so is there anything else you need?"
Chen Youyou said: "Oh yes, there are also four-piece sets, curtains, carpets, and pillows." ”
Yi Feng was surprised: "Do you have to change it?" ”
If it weren't for the time problem, Chen Youyou would have wanted to redecorate Yi Feng's house, "Yes!" Your interior style is nothing short of depressive, and if you don't change it, you'll be terminally ill. ”
Yi Feng's face was full of smiles that could not be hidden, and he said to Chen Youyou dotingly: "Okay, I will listen to you." ”
Without exception, the last choice is warm color things, human species, always susceptible to the influence of the environment, see the sun on the mood is comfortable, encounter rainy days will be inexplicably depressed, the ancients said, people have joys and sorrows, the moon is cloudy and sunny, some things are destined to not change, the only thing that can be changed is their own state of mind, as long as the heart is strong enough, even tears can reflect the rainbow.
In addition, Chen Youyou also bought a scented candle to help him sleep, and the effect was put aside, and this proper sense of ritual was enough to give people a strong hint in his heart, which was the legendary self-hypnosis.
After returning home, Chen Youyou and Yi Feng wasted all their efforts to change everything, and the style of the home was suddenly renewed, and finally the two collapsed on the sofa.
Chen Youyou suddenly saw the scented candle placed on the coffee table.
Yi Feng guessed her thoughts and said, "I'll go get a lighter." ”
"No, you wait for me..."After speaking, Chen Youyou got up and didn't know what to look for.
After a while, she sat cross-legged on the carpet in front of the sofa, took out a matchbox, took out a match, and heard a thud, the fire lit, and then a faint fragrance spread.
Chen Youyou smiled, "Although the lighter is very convenient, I prefer the moment when the match is lit, listening to the sound of the sound again and again, I feel that the whole soul is healed." ”
Yi Feng stared at the logo of a cake shop on the matchbox, "So you have saved a lot of matchboxes?" ”
Chen Youyou nodded and said, "Whenever the people around me have a birthday, the matchbox from the cake shop will be in my pocket." ”
Yi Feng stroked her head, "You little clever ghost." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, sweeping away the gloom.
Just then, the door came suddenly, and a voice came.
"I'm back..." is Yi Feng's mother.
Yi Feng hurriedly withdrew his hand, and Chen Youyou straightened his originally lazy posture.
Yi Feng's mother looked at the ambiguous two, "It's so fragrant, it's not the right time for me to come back." ”
Chen Youyou took the lead and said, "Good afternoon, Mom." ”
Yi Feng's mother looked at the family that had changed so much and sighed: "This is what it looks like a home." ”
She first looked at the living room, then the master bedroom and the second bedroom, and said to Chen Youyou movingly: "Youyou, I can go back with peace of mind with you, your father urges me to go back every day, and I am still so annoying." ”
Chen Youyou envied their loving appearance, if he had his parents with him when he was young, it would be great.
"Don't worry, it's going to get better and better." Chen Youyou finally breathed a sigh of relief, after all, men and women are different, they are always in the same room, and after a long time, some incidents will inevitably arise, "Then I'll help you clean up your things?" ”
"Good"
After Yi Feng's mother left, they returned to living separately, the difference is that every night Chen Youyou will tell Yi Feng some stories, it may be fairy tales or interesting things that happened to her at school during the day or some things she saw and heard, etc., in short, this is very useful to Yi Feng, and she will not leave and return to her room until he falls asleep.
One day after class, Yi Feng went to pick up Chen Youyou to watch the movie "Gauguin: Love in Another Country", he did not forget that Chen Youyou had told him that she liked the French actor Cassel, and this movie happened to be starring him.
On the eve of the start of the movie, Chen Youyou was very excited when he knew that it was Cassel's movie, "I didn't expect this film to be released in China." ”
"I only found out by chance."
"His acting skills are very good, and I believe that he will interpret the character of Gauguin very well."
"And the nature of Tahiti."
Chen Youyou gossiped: "Do you think that he actually looks more like Gauguin's good friend Van Gogh." ”
Yi Feng had an expression of eating a melon, and cooperated: "It seems like this when you say that." ”
Chen Youyou said excitedly: "The movie has begun..."
Then the two turned on the viewing mode.
At the beginning of the movie, when Gauguin left his wife and went to Tahiti, Chen Youyou saw this silently leaving tears, and she remembered that her mother was also abandoned in this way.
Yi Feng handed her a tissue and whispered, "Youyou, why don't we go back, don't look at it." ”
Chen Youyou wiped his tears: "I'm fine." ”
Because French films are not easy to understand, and their films pay more attention to ideology than picture effects, so while watching the movie, Yi Feng whispered to Chen Youyou the names and backgrounds of Gauguin's paintings, so that she could understand the content of the film.
Chen Youyou is simply impressed by Yi Feng, whether it is on the outside or on the inside, this man is perfect and impeccable.
At the end of the movie, Gauguin was abandoned by the Tahitian indigenous woman Dehula, Chen Youyou couldn't help but sigh, Gauguin abandoned his wife and children to pursue the inspiration of the painting, and was finally abandoned by his lover, the artist is destined to be lonely, they leave the world, to pursue the unattainable dream, so they are destined not to be accepted by the world, poor and pathetic but have to admire their dedication to their dreams.
It was late at night after the movie was watched, and they drove home and went back to their rooms to rest.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew the curtains erratically, and the raindrops with the size of beans slapped the window densely, Chen Youyou got up to close the window, but was so frightened by a thunderstorm that she screamed and sat down on the ground, she covered her ears and curled up by the wall, so frightened that she didn't dare to open her eyes.
Yi Feng heard Chen Youyou's voice and rushed to her room, he hurriedly closed the window to appease Chen Youyou, who was huddled aside.
"Yoyo, it's me." Yi Feng gently stroked her hair and said with concern: "You open your eyes slowly, don't be afraid." ”
Chen Youyou slowly opened her eyes and saw Yi Feng in front of him, she instinctively threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly, as if only then would her heart not be so afraid.
"When I was very young, at that time my mother had not remarried, and it was also a thunderstorm like this, the man suddenly came back, although he was holding an umbrella, but he was wet, my mother thought he was coming back to live a good life with her, but he robbed him of the few cash, my mother refused to give it to him, he began to beat my mother, my mother was beaten with blood all over her face, I ran over and bit his hand, but he pushed me to the ground, he dragged me out of the door, locked the door, the rain hit me, I was cold and scared, but no matter how much I begged him, he wouldn't open the door. ”
Yi Feng gently patted her back, "With me, no one can hurt you in the future." ”
Slowly Chen Youyou calmed down, Yi Feng carried her to the bed, helped her cover the quilt, and prepared to turn around and leave.
Chen Youyou grabbed his sleeve, "Yang, don't go." ”
At this moment, Chen Youyou didn't know why she would make such a move, usually during thunderstorms, she hid in the quilt alone, fearfully looking forward to the early end of the thunderstorm, maybe it was in him that she got a sense of security that she had never had, so she was willing to open up to him.
Yi Feng turned around and said gently: "I'm not leaving, I'll go get something and I'll be back soon." ”
After a while, Yi Feng came back and put the agarwood bracelet on Chen Youyou's hand, and a faint fragrance filled her sense of smell and calmed her mind.
Chen Youyou looked at the familiar bracelet, which was the one she took from his hand when they first met.
A song sounded slowly, with a faint sadness and a healing power.
Chen Youyou asked, "What kind of song is this?" ”
"The longing through time and space is an episode in the anime "Inuyasha", which tells the story of two people and demons from different time and space falling in love, tolerating each other, and growing together."
Chen Youyou was puzzled: "Can people from different time and space fall in love?" ”
"Of course, love can transcend time and space, and as long as two people miss each other, they will not be separated." Just like the two of them, although there is an age gap, he firmly believes that one day she will fall in love with him.
Chen Youyou knew that Yi Feng's concept of love was very pure, otherwise he would not have been able to forget a first love who had been dead for 18 years, but his infatuation could no longer be responded, maybe he didn't care if there was a response at all, because he believed that someone in another world was thinking about him.
It's just that what Chen Youyou doesn't know is that Yi Feng's love for her at this moment has long been unable to extricate herself, but she herself has never noticed it, she simply thinks that his pretentiousness is because of her first love.
Yi Feng gently patted her through the quilt, and it didn't take long for both of them to fall asleep.
