Chapter 92: Journey to the West
(Thanks to the leader of the alliance of "Summer Hammurabifa" for rewarding, I owe more 3, and I will add more tomorrow)
Xie Minyun and Cheng Mo's images and dialogues continued to spread from the peach lake in the university town to the secret base of "Taiji Dragon" in Star City, and at this moment more than a dozen monitors were working, some were monitoring Jing Ye, some were monitoring Jing Xing, and some were monitoring Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun.
But most of the people in the monitoring room were around Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun's monitors, except for Yan Funing, who was still meticulously sitting on the monitor monitoring Jing Ye, working with headphones.
On the other side of the TV wall, the drone came from a high altitude to overlook the picture, the bright lights of the Chehe River is silent flowing in the Xiangjiang River, in the distance is the lights of the city and the night sky washed by heavy rain, in which the orange island is like a giant ship wandering in the stars......
The Peach Lake, where Xie Minyun and Cheng Mo are located, is like a small green boat in the steel jungle.
A group of thick and leafy old men gathered in front of the monitor and shouted "wow", "Dog food is so sweet!"
"It's so sweet! It reminds me of my first love.....
"Yu Rong, isn't it! You also have your first love? Isn't your first love the fifth girl?"
Laughter suddenly rang out in the huge monitoring room.
The chubby Yu Rong didn't care about this, pushed his glasses and said: "Damn! Fat can't have a first love? Besides, when I was in high school, I was a popular figure in our school, and many elementary school girls had a crush on me, okay? I think my brother was a man who received several love letters!"
"Huh? You still have love letters, I'm afraid that others will ask you to help fix the computer, right?"
Everyone laughed again, and some people said dissatisfiedly: "Hey, can you stop arguing, I'm still waiting to hear how Cheng Mo answers Xie Minyun's question!"
"This doesn't need to be asked, who can resist such a good girl! Wow! Just the sentence 'The world is not worth your attention, but I am worth it' is so sweet that I am drunk!" Yu Rong closed his eyes, patted his chest, and took a deep breath of the nicotine-smelling air in the monitoring room, as if he smelled the summer wind after the rain on the shore of Peach Lake.
However, things were obviously not as easy as they thought, Cheng Mo stood in place for a long time without answering, and Xie Minyun did not urge, just looked at him like this.
Cheng Mo is not in a hurry, but the people in the monitoring room are anxious.
"What is this stupid boy thinking.....? What are you waiting for?"
"Yes, you don't need to say anything! Hug her and kiss her!
"Why did you have a cassette at the critical moment?"
These exciting hustle and bustle could not affect Li Jiting and Bai Xiuxiu, the two of them stood behind a group of noisy people and watched Xie Minyun and Cheng Mo stand opposite each other, lotus leaves and fields, and the glowing peach lake was covered with bright moonlight and dim lights.
Bai Xiuxiu sighed, Li Jiting turned his head to look at Bai Xiuxiu who was wearing a Chanel suit, and couldn't help but sigh that Bai Xiuxiu is indeed suitable for wearing Chanel, the woman next to him will always be able to calm the scene, advance and retreat properly and behave generously; 。
There is no doubt that Bai Xiuxiu is indeed one of the best women he has ever met, and there are very few women who can get such an evaluation from him Li Jiting.
Li Jiting couldn't help but ask with a smile: "Captain Bai didn't also remember his first love, right?"
Bai Xiuxiu shook her head lightly, "I just remembered a very funny film "Journey to the West", at the end, the girl played by Zhu Yin confronted the sunset warrior played by Stephen Chow on the Tucheng Tower for three days and three nights, forcing him to ask if he wanted her. ”
"Huh, I didn't expect Captain Bai to watch Stephen Chow's nonsensical movies, you don't look like a literary young woman....."
"Hmm, I didn't expect Uncle Li to know that Stephen Chow specializes in nonsensical movies..... Bai Xiuxiu's tone of the sentence was light, but when she was talking about Uncle Li, she specially accentuated the words, obviously reminding Li Jiting that she was not a young man, but Li Jiting's old thinking.
Li Jiting stroked his long Italian-style curly hair, and smiled, "I'm not old-hearted, no matter in that era, I was learning about the favorite things of young people at the moment, not to mention Stephen Chow, it's the most popular clay puppet and soil creation now, Cai Xukun! Yang Chaoyue! I also know the same! The times are advancing, and we can't trap ourselves in our own world and enjoy ourselves!"
This time, Bai Xiuxiu didn't call Uncle Li Jiting, but just looked at Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun on the monitoring screen intently, and said noncommittally: "Team Leader Li is quite advancing with the times. ”
Li Jiting has a good sense of Bai Xiuxiu, but Bai Xiuxiu is slightly estranged from this team leader Li who has mixed reviews in Taijilong, not because of her lost husband, it is a business matter, not to mention that no one in the Qianlong group is living a precarious life?
In this regard, Bai Xiuxiu admires Li Jiting more, and has some estrangement from Li Jiting, but simply because Li Jiting is a famous playboy in Taijilong, he is often evaluated as "amorous", especially his famous declaration: "The most romantic way for a man to die is to die on a woman's belly." ”
Although Li Jiting behaved very gentlemanly in Star City during this time, Bai Xiuxiu still carefully kept her distance from this boss, and even Feng Luwan was warned by her not to provoke Team Leader Li.
Li Jiting is also quite wronged, in fact, his best habit is that rabbits don't eat the grass by the nest, and never attack his work partners, and his famous line is: "The most romantic way for a man to die is to die in the arms of the woman he loves." ”
didn't know that it was rumored by the bastards in his group that "the most romantic way for a man to die is to die on a woman's belly", but Li Jiting didn't bother to explain, because he thought it was indeed a good way to die.
Li Jiting, who didn't know that he was in Bai Xiuxiu's social blacklist, raised his right hand and touched his chin, "There is a lot of deconstruction about this ending, some people think that girl is the reincarnation of Zixia Fairy and the reincarnation of Supreme Treasure, and some people think that it is just a borrowing, and it is the same if it is replaced by Wu Mengda and Wu Junru." In fact, it doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, this shot and the last song "The Love of My Life" are expressing the same meaning, it is not an explanation for the story of Supreme Treasure and Zixia, but to tell us: cherish the people in front of you. Life is short, seize the day, be happy in time, let go of love when you meet the person you love, don't miss it in regret. ”
Bai Xiuxiu said softly: "There are too many things in this world that people regret, and many times when we say goodbye, we don't know that it is goodbye..... It's a pity that you are not Sun Wukong, and Cheng Mo is not a sunset warrior..... You can't answer ..... for him"
Li Jiting still smiled and said, "Captain Bai is a little touching, then do you think Cheng Mo will refuse Xiao Jin?"
Bai Xiuxiu felt that Li Jiting was too heartless, Xie Minyun was brought to Star City by him to meet Cheng Mo, and kept saying that Cheng Mo was the son of an old friend and his apprentice, but he didn't see Li Jiting's pity for Cheng Mo at all, but wanted to make Cheng Mo enter the game, although as a superior, ruthlessness is necessary, but he didn't talk about humanity at all, which really made Bai Xiuxiu feel a little uncomfortable, so Bai Xiuxiu said with a thorn in his words: "If you refuse him, you will regret it, and if you promise him, you will regret it.... It's really unfortunate that Cheng Mo couldn't learn from you, the master, if you teach with your heart, maybe he will be irresponsible and happily agree....."
Li Jiting didn't seem to understand Bai Xiuxiu's sarcasm, "Yes, this kid is good at everything, but he is too serious about feelings, and he is probably too deeply influenced by his father..... It seems that I still have to teach ...... strictly."
Just when a room of people was waiting for Cheng Mo to answer, Xie Minyun on the screen suddenly waved his hand, and the inexplicable drone shot began to shake, and then Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun disappeared into the monitor, leaving only the city's streamer sliding down in the field of vision.
In the footage of the bodyguard who followed, you can see that Xie Minyun disappeared instantly, and as soon as the word "Xie" was said by the bodyguard, he had already fainted to the ground.
The sudden change made the people in the monitoring room start to exclaim, but they could only watch the white skirt like a cloud flutter away, grabbed Cheng Mo, who was a little stunned, and started to run in the direction of Yuelu Mountain.
Bai Xiuxiu frowned and immediately said, "Hurry up and inform the eagle in the car and tell him to follow immediately..... Miss Xie cannot be allowed to get out of surveillance. ”
Li Jiting gave a diametrically opposed order, "No need..... Give the two kids a little time alone!"
Bai Xiuxiu turned her head and looked at Li Jiting with a serious face, "Team Leader Li, none of us can afford to take responsibility for Miss Xie's accident. ”
Li Jiting spread his hands, "What can happen in Star City?" What's more, Xiao Jin and Cheng Mo are not easy to bully. ”
"I think Ou Yu and the high-level of Sunflower Banner have already guessed something, we can't rule out that there are Chosen People from other countries lurking around Miss Xie, in case someone wants to do something to Miss Xie, things will be bad. Bai Xiuxiu did not compromise on this because Li Jiting was the person in charge of this operation, but still expressed that she did not approve of Li Jiting's decision.
Li Jiting knew that he couldn't convince Bai Xiuxiu in this matter, so he could only shake his head helplessly, "Okay! Leave it to me, I'll go myself!"
———————————————
Cheng Mo was silent, he really didn't know how to answer Xie Minyun, before he could say the answer, he first had to convince himself, "How much do you like to be liked?"
Is there a quantitative amount for this?
For example, how much dopamine is secreted and how fast the heartbeat arrives.
Or what is the definition of like?
Without a clear definition of liking, it is impossible to explain the difference between liking a book, liking an animal, and liking a person, and since they are all likes, then there is no problem with him saying "liking".
And does "like" count as some kind of commitment?
If he says he likes it, what kind of responsibilities should he bear and what kind of rights he can enjoy, how to define this aspect is also a headache, of course, if he says "don't like", then there will be no problem.
Cheng Mo's mind was a mess, and his reason told him that even if he liked it, this was a relationship that was destined to end without a problem, and it was better not to start it now than to be entangled and painful because of the deepening of the relationship.
Just when Cheng Mo opened his mouth slightly to speak, he saw Xie Minyun raise his hand on his towering chest, and a crystal clear water drop condensed out of thin air in the air, and then she flicked her fingers lightly, and the water drop disappeared into the air, so on the side of the two of them, between the turquoise treetops and the deep silent night sky, a drone fell towards the thin forest like a meteor.
Then Xie Minyun, who was wearing a white dress, disappeared in front of his eyes like a ghost, and after a "poof", before Cheng Mo could react, Xie Minyun came to his side and pulled him away.
In an instant, Cheng Mo understood what was going on, which reminded Cheng Mo of pulling Xie Minyun on the K20 and walking forward in the narrow aisle, the transparent Baikal Lake was shining in the sun like a mirror, and the red pines and birches on both sides of the bank were endless, it was really a dream-like journey.
And it seems, now, that dream continues.
The wooden plank road was "creaked" by Cheng Mo, but Xie Minyun's footsteps were silent, Cheng Mo looked down at the beige Chanel sheepskin flat heels on Xie Minyun's feet, and the swinging black double C, like shackles on her toes.
Soon they ran to the road between Yuelu Academy and Taozi Lake, to the left is the Xiangjiang River, to the right is Yuelu Mountain, and then to the Yuelu Academy of Architecture, the square and very solemn marble building is also beautiful in the night, Huaxia University rarely has such a beautiful building, most of them are traditional and monotonous buildings, such a modern building can only be seen in the School of Architecture that is Yuelu Academy.
Xie Minyun pulled Cheng Mo and ran in the direction of Yuelu Mountain, and said in a pleasant tone as he ran: "Cheng Mo..... You shouldn't hesitate.... I know the answer if you hesitate, so ..... Now it doesn't matter what you answer, I trust my judgment....."
Xie Minyun's breath was so steady, and his voice did not tremble at all, as if he was not running.
Cheng Mo couldn't, he gasped and said, "There is no point, we will not have results." ”
At this time, Cheng Mo's phone rang, Cheng Mo took out his mobile phone while running, Fu Yuanzhuo's call, he pressed the answer while running, and said while panting: "Hey!"
"Damn.... Isn't it? What are you doing.... Can't breathe?"
Before Cheng Mo could explain, he heard Fu Yuanzhuo quickly say, "It seems that you won't come! Okay! Excuse me!" and then he hung up the phone.
Xie Minyun asked, "Is it Fu Yuanzhuo?"
Cheng Mo nodded and stuffed the phone back into his trouser pocket.
"Sorry to lie to you....."
"It doesn't matter. ”
Because of the construction of the subway, there are no vehicles on this street, only sporadic college students are strolling with books, at this time the two have run along the ramp to the stadium of Yuelu Academy, and when they look up, they can see the statue of a great man facing the Xiangjiang River with their hands behind their backs.
Xie Minyun glanced back and judged that no one was chasing them, so he slowed down his pace and didn't let the two of them be so conspicuous among the pedestrians, running wild on the street like the male and female protagonists of third-rate Japanese dramas.
But whether she runs or not is actually the same, it is still so eye-catching, but it doesn't matter, Xie Minyun has completely let go of herself today, she knows that she only has a few hours, she looked up at the narrow ramp leading to the gate of Yuelu Mountain, there are many shops on both sides, and the lights are bright, "I have studied in Changya for two years, but I have never been to Yuelu Mountain, and I have never even been to Yuelu Academy, I heard that there is a pool of koi fish in Lushan Pavilion, throw a coin into it, and make a wish.....
Cheng Mo's hand was tightly grasped by Xie Minyun's hand, although it was not a short run, Xie Minyun's palm was not wet at all, nor was it burning, it was still a comfortable temperature, he grabbed the messy hair with his other hand, and whispered: "I haven't been here either.... The closest thing to Yuelu Mountain is to go to Du Leng's house....."
"I remember you were late that day! I thought you wouldn't come! Later, you told me that Du Leng paid for you, and told me that you wanted to go to Europe..... I'll follow you during the summer vacation..... You know what? When you went to my grandfather's house, you quarreled with me... I'm still a little disgusted with you....."
Xie Minyun confessed so frankly that Cheng Mo was a little powerless to parry, "Hmm..... I..... I don't think that's a quarrel, is it? At best, it's a dispute .... It's good to have academic disputes!"
Feeling that Cheng Mo's heartbeat was not calm, Xie Minyun seemed to grasp Cheng Mo's weakness, she finally knew that Cheng Mo was actually afraid that others would treat him well, "My grandfather often mentions you, before coming to school, I went to my grandfather's house first, and I also went to the long-term building where you used to live to take a look..... I guess we must have seen each other when we were kids, so we should be childhood sweethearts, right?"
Cheng was speechless, he searched in his mind for a long time but did not find a beautiful and cute little girl like porcelain, he often leaned on the window of that building to watch the children downstairs play, he was sure that he had never seen Xie Minyun, "No, right? I have a good memory..... I haven't seen you!"
"But I've seen you! One summer, you were led by your father to my grandfather's house to play Go, and at that time you were a little kid, sitting quietly watching your father and my grandfather play Go.... I glanced at you several times around the corner of the stairs.... You wear gray shorts and a red vest, and you are dressed like a Chinese doll holding a carp in a pictorial magazine.... I think you're ugly! not as good as your dad.... Didn't go downstairs. Xie Minyun said with a chuckle.
Cheng Mo couldn't help but recall the painful experience of his childhood, "Uh! My dad was still wearing open crotch pants for me when I was three years old..... If I hadn't found my own needlework and asked the nanny to sew it, I guess I would have been able to wear it until I was six years old....."
"Oh, that's a pity..... If you had come in open crotch pants that day, I might have gone down to tease you!"
Cheng Mo glanced at Xie Minyun's smiling face, "Now whatever you say, no one knows whether it's true or fake..."
Xie Minyun didn't refute, at this time the two had already walked to Dongfanghong Square, Xie Minyun glanced at the KFC in front of the ramp, the red signboard was particularly eye-catching against the black mountain forest, she whispered: " When he was a child, he was very envious that his classmates could go to KFC to eat fries and fried chicken together after school, and they could meet to go to someone's house while eating watermelon while chasing boring idol dramas, or go to the Internet café in groups to play games online, and when it comes to the meal, one person orders a bowl of instant noodles and eats it cleanly. I also envy those girls who can go to the pool with the boys with a swimming ring, go home holding hands with the smell of bleaching powder, and drink a bottle of soda together at the convenience store at the intersection..."
Xie Minyun pulled Cheng Mo towards KFC, "Actually, the two of us are quite similar..... You are locked in the cage of the body, and we are locked in the room of identity....."
Cheng Mo's heart trembled slightly, his mind kept recalling the summer vacation they spent together in Europe, even if something terrible happened, this was still his happiest summer, the previous summer was like "The Complete Works of Marx and Engels" for him, and the long tome was daunting.
"Let's go eat fried chicken and drink Coke! I want to do what I once wanted to do, but I couldn't do it, and I will do it all with you today......" Xie Minyun stood at the door of KFC and smiled at Cheng Mo.
This smile is sweeter than Coke.
