Chapter 48

The night sea in the third year of junior high school was too cold, and the last two people were so cold that they packed up their unfinished food and left the beach early.

But the process of going back was not smooth, seeing that the nearest train was about to leave, Meng Shilong suddenly stopped to rummage through the bag, and said with an unreasonable face: "It seems that something has fallen on the beach." ”

You Xuezhen was also anxious: "What is missing?" ”

He muttered, bowed his head and rummaged through his bag, turning it halfway through and exhaling.

"It's okay, found it."

You Xuezhen looked at the time on her phone, There was only one minute left, not enough for them to enter the station.

She pulled down her phone, there was only the last shift left, and sighed: "I can only wait for the last train, but it will take half an hour to ......"

He also sighed slightly: "It's only half an hour......"

You Xuezhen was alert and suspicious: "You didn't mean it just now, right?" ”

He was still vague: "I'm going to buy water." ”

The two walked into the platform without any one in the time and space, and the waiting room at the station was not air-conditioned, and everything was deserted. You Xuezhen felt that her stomach began to hurt, maybe it was because of the sea breeze and cold, she hurriedly ran to the toilet, and when she came back, she saw Meng Shilong looking down at her phone, very concentrated.

"What are you looking at?"

You Xuezhen restrained her peeking eyes, but she didn't suppress her doubts.

Meng Shilong turned the screen generously, and she saw a piece of crimson magma about to erupt from the screen.

"Where is this?"

"Iceland. The news that just brushed up, erupted yesterday. ”

"It's spectacular......"

Meng Shilong put his phone horizontally between the two of them for her to watch together, and also pulled the progress bar to the beginning, and the video reported 2 minutes and 18 seconds, and they watched a volcanic eruption tens of thousands of kilometers away. The image of the lava boiling hot seemed to make the silent winter night platform even hotter, and You Xuezhen came back to her senses and realized that maybe it was because they were too close.

The heat came from Meng Shilong's warm breath, which sprayed behind her ears.

You Xuezhen did not sit up straight.

Meng Shilong also still held his mobile phone horizontally between them.

Even though the video has run out, automatically skipping to the next video, and the volcano again, the system's inference algorithm exposes the type he has been watching frequently lately.

She quipped, "Have you recently rekindled your love for volcanoes?" ”

"Credit to you for opening that box." He admits frankly, "After returning from Hong Kong Island, I started to brush some unconsciously, and it looked very decompressing." I also watched a documentary about volcanologists and remembered a very interesting point. ”

"What?"

"The volcano detector reacts quickly before a volcano erupts, and the lines of the graph with the pointer fluctuate up and down......," he thought for a moment, "and it looks like an electrocardiogram of the Earth." ”

Although You Xuezhen didn't watch the documentary, he also extended his imagination with his words alone.

"If that's the case, every time a volcano erupts, it's the earth's heart beating." ”

Meng Shilong was stunned, and her statement made the volcano even more romantic.

No one came in at the platform, and when the last train arrived, only the two of them got on the train, which was equivalent to them chartering the train. Although it was still very cold on the train, it was already warm compared to the platform with a cold wind, and You Xuezhen yawned as soon as she sat down.

She leaned her head against the window, put her bag on the table, and said to Meng Shilong across the table, I will sleep for a while. At this time, I closed my eyes and didn't think about anything again.

I don't know how long it took, You Xuezhen heard Meng Shilong calling her in a daze.

"Arrived?" She opened her eyes sleepily, only to see Meng Shilong shaking his head.

"It's not here yet, wake you up next...... You can't miss it. ”

He said vaguely, and she heard her in a fog, what else did she want to ask? In the next second, the incandescent lights of the train's carriage clanged and went out without warning.

At first, You Xuezhen thought it was a train breakdown, but she heard Meng Shilong's voice from the opposite side in the dark, and in a tone of no surprise, she asked her to look out of the window.

You Xuezhen calmed down and turned her head, and gradually lost her words in surprise.

Along the train are white plum blossoms in full bloom, and each tree is tied with a night light, and the branches shoot upwards to illuminate the texture of the petals. As soon as the train lights are turned off, the night lights outside the window are distinct, setting off the plum blossoms in the night, gushing into two fragrant flower rivers, and like snow falling in them.

She felt that the speed of the train had even slowed down, and she took care of the passengers in the train, so that they could see the "Plum Blossom River" carefully.

You Xuezhen felt that she must have no eyes to look at her now, her mouth was slightly open, like a fool. A sentence was held in his chest, but fortunately he suppressed it, and he didn't blurt it out like an illiterate person, and praised it politely: "It's so beautiful!" ”

Well, there is no culture to go anywhere.

She was completely reluctant to withdraw her gaze, and asked Meng Shilong while staring out the window: "You already know this?" What is it? ”

Only then did he confess: "I found it on the Internet, saying that the last train of this train will be in the next few days when the plum blossoms are in full bloom, and when passing through this section of the road, turn off the lights and go slowly, so that everyone can enjoy the flowers." ”

You Xuezhen suddenly realized: "No wonder you have to delay until the last shift...... Sure enough, it was deliberate. ”

"Yes, but there were no surprises to tell you at the time."

If the lights in the car were suddenly turned on at this time, she would find herself looking out the window and Meng Shilong looking sideways at the reflected window, then her brain would have sounded some kind of danger alarm.

Unfortunately, the carriage is still dim, and the only source of light is outside the window. They were immersed in the looming darkness, and she heard Meng Shilong whisper, "I'll send him back to the house one last time, and I can't bear to kiss him." ”

You Xuezhen looked at him, her face half dark and half slightly bright.

"What are you talking about......?"

"Remember this sentence, when we were having dinner on Hong Kong Island on Christmas Eve, you asked me what I meant."

"Ahh You Xuezhen recalled, "-You only want to tell me now? ”

"Hmm." He translates this sentence of his own, "The meaning of this sentence is that I will ...... when I finally send her home"

As he spoke, he looked into her eyes.

The train moved forward slowly, the shadows of plum blossoms swaying one after another on the side faces of the two, far away on the mountain, a bird returned to the forest, Meng Shilong half got up, and crossed the table between him and her.

"Can't help but kiss her."

He leaned his balance on the window with one hand and leaned in front of her.

"Will she kiss me?"

The shadow of the plum blossom turned into the shadow of him bent over, occupying the side of her face.

You Xuezhen's heart tightened suddenly, thinking that he would make the next move, but no.

Without waiting for her approval, he just looked at her, and looked at her up close with the eyes of the plum blossoms outside the window. Abide by the distance that is not lovers, and it is definitely not the distance of friends.

The heavier snorts of the two men came together, and the smell melted together like a night breeze on a flower.

You Xuezhen passively raised her head and met his drooping eyes, as well as his lips.

She had never gazed at it before, and the only opportunity she could get up close was through those two make-ups. But once I was embarrassed when I was just ripe, and another time I was embarrassed even though I was ripe.

And at this moment, the desire to stare at him overwhelmed the embarrassment. Through the unclear light, she could see the lines on his mouth, and found that he probably didn't like to use lip balm, resulting in several dead skin spots on his mouth.

"You've got a dry mouth...... she traced his lipline, "I'll lend you lip balm." ”

As he spoke, he fumbled in his bag and actually pulled out a lipstick.

Meng Shilong stretched out his hand to take it, but You Xuezhen swayed by.

She applied it to her lips.

A plum petal was blown to the car window by the night wind, and Meng Shilong was holding the window in the window, and the petals were sticking to the car window, as if they had just fallen on his palm.

His palm slowly slid down, and together with his scarf, it was pulled down by You Xuezhen, and pulled to a position where she could kiss him with her face slightly raised.

After a while, the plum blossoms on the car window were blown off again.

The moment it flew away, You Xuezhen on the inside of the car window closed her eyes, like a sacrificial animal, trembling her eyelashes and sticking them to Meng Shilong's dry lips.

*

A minute later, the train lights came on.

The two parted in a panic, her shame was like the incandescent lamp of the suddenly lit carriage, caught off guard, but there was nowhere to hide, and finally in a panic pulled out a lame reason, and said to Meng Shilong, look, your lips are not dry now.

He laughed when he heard this, and under her forceful glare, he pretended to say thank you.

You Xuezhen, who heard these two words, almost buried her head under the seat.

He sat back in his position, You Xuezhen didn't dare to look at him anymore, as if one more look would lead to a fire, and he was like the two of himself who pulled him down to kiss just now.

But You Xuezhen knew that this kiss was not an accident. Maybe there's a little bit of drowsiness in the atmosphere, and there must be something to get dizzy about first.

It turns out that when I was struck by another kind of love, my heart was not only moving, but also painful. It was a pain of a thumb kicking the heel of the man's shoe, and it would instantly connect to the heart, and she didn't think so, not knowing that the toe had been bruised.

Because of her love for Ye Wanbai - it is a nail polish covered on the nail surface, brushed over and over again for so many years, although no one saw it, she hid them in her shoes, so even she couldn't see herself.

If it weren't for the moment when she had the urge to kiss Meng Shilong, she wouldn't have noticed that the nail polish was falling off unconsciously.

So, the blood of love hidden under the mottling, heavy red, shocking, she saw it.

As the train approached, her phone started vibrating.

Seeing the name of the caller interface, You Xuezhen silently flipped the phone over and stuffed the words "Ye Wanbai" into his coat pocket.

*

On this day, Meng Shilong finally sent her to school, and when they parted, he squeezed her hand and did not ask any more questions about the kiss on the train, so as to tell her that she did not have to feel pressure about the kiss.

She didn't speak, looked into his eyes, nodded and parted with him.

Ye Wanbai is a heavy bookcase, which has been placed on the carpet for many years, even if he is determined to remove the cabinet, but when he removes it, there is still a depression in his shape on the carpet.

She thought that she had to give herself a little time to confirm that the carpet of her heart was restored, otherwise it would be unfair to Meng Shilong.

The next day I slept until noon and woke up, You Xuezhen went to see WeChat for the first time, and the New Year's greetings in various groups were still hot on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Yuan Jing sent her a photo of going to the island with her family for a vacation, and asked her to help choose which one looked better. Ye Wanbai asked her why she didn't call back yesterday. Mao Suhe took a screenshot of Zuoqiu's chat history for her and asked how it was more appropriate.

She skipped over these messages, and her fingers kept sliding down, and finally turned to Meng Shilong's news.

He was the first to send it in the morning, and the news was also pressed to the bottom.

Dragon: "[Image]"

Dragon: "I saw a beautiful sunrise."

A smile appeared on the corner of You Xuezhen's mouth, turned over slightly, pressed her face on the pillow, and pressed her hands into the chat box to deliberate repeatedly.

Zhen Zhibang: "Isn't the store open today? Why do you get up so early?"
