Act Thirty-Three: Across Billions of Light-Years (Confession!) )
Lu Mingfei walked out of the Chinese restaurant and took out his mobile phone, "Norma, dispatch my car." ”
"Verification successful, Lu Mingfei, class "S", the school work department is transporting your car over."
"Whew." Lu Mingfei hung up the phone, fortunately he was fully prepared and transported the Bugatti Veyron to New York City in advance, otherwise the situation would not be good.
"The girl who picked me up, she must have a full face!" Lu Mingfei thought to himself.
The school work department was very efficient, and it didn't take long for his car to come over.
The burly man who had left the board and his head got out of the car and saluted Lu Mingfei, and then trotted away.
"This big brother ......" Lu Mingfei scratched his head embarrassedly, "and wanted to get him a taxi." ”
"Located in Brooklyn, New York, Elsewhere Brooklyn is an extremely diverse, large-scale nightclub with installation art and music."
Lu Mingfei was not satisfied with Norma's real use, not only helped him send the car over, but also helped him find all the famous nightclubs in New York, he believed that he could always find it.
"Let's go here first."
He got into the car, pressed the gas pedal hard, the silver-gray Bugatti Veyron broke through the falling leaves, glanced at the fuel tank, well, good, the tank was full, it was time to drive fast to find his beloved girl.
Lu Mingfei has seen a movie called "Taxi Driver", Chen Wenwen recommended it to him, he didn't understand the plot too much, it seems that Chen Wenwen loves to watch this kind of lonely and sad movie, but he likes Robert De Niro very much, and he is a man who looks a little melancholy between his eyebrows.
There's a scene in the movie where De Niro drives a taxi aimlessly through New York's neon-dappled old neighborhoods late at night, adding a bit of loneliness to the city's glamorous and sinful night.
Lu Mingfei thought it was too romantic, the melancholy man walked under the bizarre city, the flickering shadows, and the colorful spots of neon lights reflected from the car window glass.
The taxi is damp and down, the back seat is the woman he has always loved but never won't get, the camera is cleverly set, and she in the rearview mirror is reflected like a goddess by the shimmer.
At this time, the melodious saxophone sounded, and with her soft voice, De Niro forced a smile but could not hide his moist eyes.
He understood that the woman who had once fascinated him in a sunny afternoon café had now been divided into two worlds by the front and back rows, and that the only thing that really belonged to him was the endless darkness that stretched endlessly in the chaos of neon lights.
Lu Mingfei's thoughts came back from the plot of the movie, turned on the car stereo, and played Jay Chou's "Qili Xiang", and all the songs in the car had already been replaced by Jay Chou's.
"It rained all night
My love overflows like rain
Yard leaves
It's a thick stack with my thoughts
……”
……
……
Nono had already drunk the sixth can of beer, but the person he wanted to see still hadn't appeared.
She did this tonight because she was a little angry, and Lu Mingfei left her and ran to play with Old Tang and them.
Although Lu Mingfei also invited her to come with her, she didn't agree, because she was actually very scared in her heart and was always a little uneasy.
She wanted to see if Lu Mingfei could really find her.
She hopes that the person who will be with her in her life will appear when she needs him the most, will not disappear and will not betray, and can give her broad and thick shoulders to lean on, like a harbor, so that she can occasionally mess around and occasionally be in a daze.
Her heart is far from being as optimistic as it seems, she has a vague feeling that something bad must be waiting for her in the future, there is no escape, she just hopes that she can be brave, and she hopes that someone can help her.
"Whatever." She tossed the empty beer can and leaped onto the bar, her long dark red hair flying like flames.
The energetic electronic music sounded, and with the powerful rhythm of the drums, Nono twisted her body, and her wide clothes flew up and down, like a flower in full bloom, and she felt that she was not very happy, so she took off her sunscreen clothing and threw it off the stage, attracting the attention of several men, and the brilliance of disco lamps flowed on her slender and white forearms.
Maybe it's because she hasn't traveled for too long, or she hasn't eaten dinner and drank some wine, but today she is not in a good state, she is a little dizzy after dancing, a little careless, the high heels under her feet are crooked, and she falls towards the bottom of the bar.
No way? As one of the few elite "A" students of the Kassel Academy, he would throw a dog in the bar? It's too embarrassing, isn't it, Nono thought in the process of falling.
The expected pain of the body colliding with the floor did not come, and he was caught by a pair of strong arms, followed by a warm embrace.
Nuo Nuo looked at the boy who caught him blankly, he smiled helplessly and dotingly, "Senior sister, let me find it easily." ”
"Hey, how did you find me?" Nono asked, even forgetting to get up from his arms.
"It's very simple, I'll look for it at one bar after another." Lu Mingfei scratched his head with a free hand, "Maybe it's luck, I just entered the first bar and saw your glorious appearance on the bar, and then you fell down." ”
Nono burst out laughing and whispered, "Why do you like to scratch your head so much?" Also, aren't you afraid that you won't find me, come over one by one, what if I lie to you and don't be in any bar at all. ”
"No, even if you're not in a bar, I'll search all the places in New York that you might go, and if I want to find you, I can always find you." Lu Mingfei said while helping her up, "It's a habit to scratch your head, and you can't change it." ”
"It's stupid." Nono turned his head, trying not to let him see the tears glistening in his eyes.
She suddenly thought of soaking her feet with Lu Mingfei next to the cold spring on the top of the mountain on her birthday, Lu Mingfei didn't know what method she used, and gave a fireworks that she had never seen in her life as a gift, looking at the suddenly lit up night sky tears fell involuntarily, she thought that there would probably be no more grand and gorgeous fireworks in the future.
He was also playing the guitar and singing, to be honest, most of the girls were taken down by such a scene, but unfortunately she was not the vast majority of girls, she just felt very moved, well, yes, only very moved, that's all, there was really no other idea.
But how long can she deceive herself?
When the memories in those dreams floated like blisters, she felt for the first time that she had met the person in her life, and for the first time she felt that there was indeed such a person in her life hidden behind the scenes, the person she had always dreamed of.
In fact, she shed tears not because the fireworks were so beautiful, but because of the feeling of "someone watching you behind the curtain", you can not be afraid of anything, you can do whatever you want, and you can move forward.
Because you know that there will always be someone standing behind you, silently supporting you and protecting you, the kind of taciturn power, although you sometimes don't feel his presence, but he is like an exclusive signal that never dies, passing through the air beside you, making people feel at ease.
"Hey, Lu Mingfei, do you like me?" Chen Motong suddenly raised his head and asked, staring into his eyes.
Lu Mingfei was stunned, trying to avoid Nuo Nuo's scorching gaze, he didn't know what he was hesitating about, maybe it was because of the cat-like girl, the strong guilt he had for her, so he couldn't accept Nuo Nuo's feelings for a long time, and devoted himself to being with her.
Myself...... is really a terrible person, and he has lived up to many people's expectations of him.
Lu Mingfei remembered a book, "Letter from a Strange Woman", Zweig's book, which was also pushed to him by Chen Wenwen, who was sitting at her desk reading it at that time, depressed about a sadness that had nothing to do with her.
After so many years, do you still remember the begonia tree, remember the person who agreed to meet you again under the begonia tree, the saddest thing is that there is no such a begonia tree in Seoul, South Korea, even if there is, no one will be waiting for you under the begonia tree, everything is just a false, despicable lie, a coward coward made a selfish agreement to escape the guilt in his heart, and the little yellow duck in his memory is full of dust.
A girl who is always on the watch and has no hope at all, her soul goes to look for the begonia tree many years later, like a ghost floating in the night sky and has no one to rely on, looking down at the empty city, playing the strings of time and longing, and Opus sings a song of weeping.
On the back of the postcard are time and simple words.
"04.24, and Sakura went to Tokyo Sky Tree, the warmest place in the world is on the neck of the Sky Tree." ’
"04.26, and Sakura went to Meiji Jingu Shrine, where someone held a wedding.' ’
"04.25, go to Disney with Sakura, the haunted house is scary, but there is Sakura, so it's not scary.' ’
It's all such a stupid and cute commentary, the meaning is very simple, and the rhetoric is also very poor, it is the self-expression of a girl who is as pure as a blank sheet of paper after she likes someone, and every sentence tries to express "I like someone", "I like someone" and "I like someone".
Still...... It hurts my heart.
How could I be such a stupid fool?
Chen Motong still stubbornly held her head high and looked him into the eyes, saying that she has always been such a proud girl, she can maintain this pride no matter when.
"Senior sister, I'm sorry, I ......"
The words that had not yet been spoken were blocked by her lips, and Nono stood on tiptoe, his hands hooked around his neck, jerkily grabbing his lips, and the high heels had been thrown off by her for some time.
The whole world became blurred, and there was a faint cheer of the crowd around her, the warm touch from the connection between the two, mixed with the faint smell of wine in her mouth and the scent of her usual shampoo, Lu Mingfei's mind was so messy and barren.
Nuno suddenly burst into tears, she let go of Lu Mingfei, took two steps back, panting, and her delicate pretty face was slightly red.
Lu Mingfei came back to his senses and asked in astonishment, "What's wrong with you, senior sister?" ”
"Nothing." Nono smiled and shook his head, wiping away the tears from his face, "I just think it's so happy to like someone." ”
"I've never really liked someone, but now it's different."
"Senior brother, I like you."
The lights of the bar suddenly dimmed, and it is estimated that some good people saw such an exciting scene and ran to propose to the bar lighting team to "give the couple a good atmosphere".
Nono's eyes shone in the darkness, and her dark red pupils shone like stars, like a witch wandering aimlessly in this world finally found what she cherished, full of fiery love.
"Damn, it's too much to take advantage of people's danger......" Lu Mingfei smiled bitterly, "I'm in a complicated mood right now, let me slow down." ”
"I don't care." Nuno was very tough, still looking him in the eye, "Just ask me if you like me." ”
Lu Mingfei looked at her dark red pupils that refracted a faint streamer, which he had never seen in his previous life, this little witch who had never told anyone about her heart took off all her disguises and bloomed with tenderness that was only shown for him.
He often felt that his sister and his soul were as far away as hundreds of millions of light years, but this seemingly unattainable barrier was narrowed to zero at this moment, and it was the distance between their hearts.
Lu Mingfei felt that he had to say something, damn it, this light and this atmosphere, the good deeds in the bar next to him were in a circle, and the cheers were stuck in their throats and ready to go, if you avoid and pretend to be able to say the "I like you" again, if you don't hug her tightly, you will be cut by a thousand knives!
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath, as if he was going to say "I do" to the bride in the church, with the blessing of the pastor and the guests.
"I like you, senior sister, it's just ......"
"It's enough to like it." She walked over and grabbed Lu Mingfei's hair viciously, "I don't care if you have anything unspeakable. ”
"I'm really not good, I can even be called a rotten person." Lu Mingfei stared down at the ground, "And I carry too many things on my body, sometimes I am afraid that I will be crushed." ”
"It's fine." Nono walked up to him, straightened his hair again, hugged him, and whispered in his ear, "I will always be there for you." ”
Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, and put his backhand around her shoulder, thinking to himself, sister, why are you messing up my hair again?
But the ghost knows what is going on in the little witch's mind, and she is always so unpredictable, as if she had just kissed suddenly.
Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei realized it later, and his face instantly turned red.
"Senior sister! This, this, this is my first kiss! ”
Strictly speaking, it's not the first kiss, Sister Mai has kissed him twice in her last life, but kissing the girl she likes is indeed the first time.
"Is your reflex arc a little too long?" Nuno pouted, "Don't act like I took advantage of you, who hasn't kissed for the first time?" ”
Lu Mingfei still didn't slow down a little, and stood in place blankly.
"Do you want to do it again?" Nono looked at him, and that familiar, little witch smile rose on his face again.
"Huh? No, no, not coming! Lu Mingfei waved his hand again and again.
"So what are you waiting for?" Nono held out his hand to him.
"Oh, oh, let's go." Lu Mingfei lowered his head and rushed out the door.
"Hey, junior brother, did you forget something?" Nono still maintained the posture of outstretching his hand, looking a little dissatisfied.
Lu Mingfei walked back and looked at Nuo Nuo's white and slender hand, what did he want him to do? Hand in hand?
What to do? Just hold it ordinarily? Or are the fingers interlocked? Isn't it good to interlock your fingers at the beginning? I don't think it's that yet......
Lu Mingfei scratched his hair in great distress, he had no experience in this kind of thing at all.
