Chapter Eighty-Nine: Sugar
[BGM in this chapter - "Moonlight" Rameses/Miyoki vocal version; Happy Valentine's Day to everyone]
Xie Minyun felt happiness for the first time in her life.
This may sound a little incredible, this perfect girl in front of her is obviously God's favorite, and she has had what others dream of since birth, money, status, and beauty.....
She is a collection of thousands of loves.
When other children are still standing at the starting line, she has already stood directly at the peak of her life, and she has nowhere to go and no way to retreat.
But because of this, in Xie Minyun's short twenty-year life, just before that, happiness was just an abstract existence. Because the essence of happiness is a sense of satisfaction, which is also destined to be such a thing, which must not be at your fingertips.
So for Xie Minyun, who has everything, life has not only become lonely, but also worse. Oscar Wilde once said that there are two kinds of misfortunes in the world, that is, the misfortune of getting nothing and the misfortune of having everything. The latter is even more unfortunate. The former deprives human beings of the happiness of enjoying the results, without which the struggle appears meaningless, while the latter deprives human beings of the happiness of enjoying the process, without which the results appear insignificant.
Xie Minyun was born in an incomparably superior prison. Fortunately, she has a good family education, and her wise grandfather has established a correct outlook on life for her, which did not let Xie Minyun go to misfortune.
However, the right outlook on life does not bring her happiness.
She has lived in a blooming landscape since she was a child, everyone smiles at her, these smiles are difficult to distinguish between real and fake, Xie Minyun can't judge how many smiles are dedicated to the power behind her, and how much is dedicated to the beauty she has. When everyone smiled at her enthusiastically without exception, it made Xie Minyun feel terrified of smiles. So she didn't like to laugh herself, and she was afraid to see others laugh at her.
She doesn't mind people smiling at her because of awe or flattery, she just doesn't want everyone to meet is the same face.
This kind of life is really terrible for Xie Minyun.
Until she met Cheng Mo, who didn't smile at her.
She met the first person in her life who was so different, and the people she had met over the years had either liked her, envied her, flattered her, or hated her, and in short, she was always able to be in a relatively central position.
But no one ever when she didn't exist.
She asked Cheng Mo to learn micro-expressions, not only to discern the true meaning of those smiles, but also to have a strong curiosity about Cheng Mo, because Cheng Mo was the first "thing" that she couldn't get at her fingertips.
Then her life opened a completely different mode, because Cheng Mo entered a completely different world, this is a world that can bring her human feelings, even if it is more negative emotions, but for Xie Minyun, the negative emotions of fear and danger are equally valuable, so that she can experience being in the wilderness of life, although there is a danger in all directions, but there is a feeling of road everywhere, rather than the embarrassment of being on the top of a mountain and having no way to go.
Compared with the life that was once dull and boring, she can see the bottom at a glance, she enjoys everything in the chaotic world more. But all this is not Uloporos, let alone the perfect "God Gene" that gave her the perfect one, God Gene only makes her worse.
Cheng Mo is the key, opportunity, and miracle to change her life.
Xie Minyun stared at the "surprise" suspended in the air in front of her, she had received countless gifts in her twenty years of life, each of which was of astonishing value, when other children received gifts such as bears, Barbie dolls, building blocks, cakes, and day trips to amusement parks, the gifts she received were the world's largest antique pianos, rare rubies from Sotheby's auction houses, priceless paintings, and dinners that everyone wanted to attend.....
She clearly remembers that when she was nine years old, the villa was brightly lit, but it was not at all like other people's children's birthday parties, there were no lanterns, balloons, dolls...
Some are silver goblets, long tables covered with white lace embroidered cloth, the tables are full of delicate and delicious food, Chinese cold cuts and Western salads, and those who know how to know that this is a dish that only appears on the menu of state banquets; waiters in waistcoats and bow ties carry plates through the crowd, a symphony orchestra composed of China's top masters stands in a corner of the living room, and the parking lot outside the lawn is full of vehicles with black and red cards, everyone is so polite, even the children are wearing suits and evening dresses.....
After the banquet, she wore a white princess dress and stood in the middle of the colorful box and watched Liu Ma open the gift box, and said loudly, "A Harry Inston diamond necklace, Sand House Ambassador to China Ellemadi", "A Buccellati Victoria bracelet, Italian Ambassador to China ****", "Ming Xuande blue and white five-clawed cloud dragon pattern small jar, Vice Chairman Ye Desheng"........
The housekeeper recorded the gifts one by one, but Xie Minyun felt bored, all she wanted was a plush doll. She went upstairs and told her mother that after a while, the guard bought a teddy bear covered in the LV logo from SKP, and she expressed her thoughts to her mother, but her mother told her that the Xie girl should not be so naΓ―ve, she should like sculpture, music, painting, all kinds of art, not like a toy.
At that time, Xie Minyun didn't know whether she was right or wrong, she only knew that what she wanted was just an ordinary plush toy puppet.
She did what her mother asked her to do and make herself a perfect girl, but since then she has had no expectations for such a thing as a "gift" because no one knows what she really wants.
She thought that she might never meet such a person in her life, but at this moment, Xie Minyun found someone who understood her.
Xie Minyun's heart was filled with an indescribable happiness, the aurora was shining above her and Cheng Mo's heads, shining brightly, the stars were swaying and dancing, the earth was white, the mirror-like lake reflected the streamer and the sky, the vast horizon was endless, the mountains and jungles were sleeping in eternity, and in the distance there seemed to be smoke traces launched by rockets, as if meteors and auroras appeared in the same sky.....
The cold air is filled with a sweet smell, the blue planet candy with a diameter of more than six meters is in the vast vast snowfield, under the bright aurora, and the lonely and slow rotation in the water and sky bordering the forest, above the blue planet stand two crystal clear villains, the villain's head is crowned with a rainbow composed of rainbow candy, the rainbow composed of candy crosses the polar regions and the English Channel on the blue planet.
She took Cheng Mo's hand and couldn't wait to run towards the huge candy that belonged to her, the snow was full of splashing snowflakes, the closer she got to the sweetness of the candy, the more obvious it was, there was a long orange flavor, a fragrant mint flavor, a sweet strawberry flavor, all kinds of candy flavors wafting in the cold air, as if they were going to flow with the aurora to the world.
Xie Minyun asked excitedly as he ran, "How did you get it?"
Cheng Mo gasped and said: "Custom-made, as long as you have money, this is not difficult, you can find a candy factory to do it, and Finland is the most lacking candy factory." It's a little more troublesome to install a magnetic levitation device and transport it. There is no such a large maglev device, and there is no manufacturer in Finland to make it, and the gringos don't know how to work around, or I drew the drawings myself, passed them on, and let them do it according to the pattern....."
"Where's the electricity? Won't this transfer last long?"
"Just use a battery, this doesn't cost much electricity, in fact, it's just a candy shell, the middle is empty, if there is no electricity, the planet candy will automatically suck up." There is also a solar power generator in the distance, if it is not broken, it will not be a problem to use it for many years....."
"Can it be eaten?" Xie Minyun asked with a smile as he looked back at Cheng Mo as he ran.
"Of course, each color is made of different candies, and dozens of flavors of candies are used to make the whole earth, including orange flavor, watermelon flavor, strawberry flavor, fruit juice gummies, milk hard candy, chocolate candy, you see that rainbow, it is made of rainbow candy and MM beans......"
At this time, the two of them finally ran to the bottom of the planet candy, Xie Minyun looked up, and could clearly see Russia made of corn candy, Mongolia made of matcha candy and China made of orange candy under the reflection of the aurora.....
Soon she saw the light gray Finland again, and in the Lehmen Forest Park in the White Arctic Circle, stood two little figures carved with rock candy, holding hands, with a candy-colored rainbow above their heads, so colorful and warm, so childish, so beautiful, and so moving.
At this moment, Xie Minyun felt that she and Cheng Mo were such a wonderful combination, the ultimate in beauty, and her definition of happiness.
Xie Minyun turned her head to look at Cheng Mo, her eyes were full of affection, and she whispered: "Do you think I'm a child.....?
Cheng Mo also looked at Xie Minyun, his chest was still slightly undulating from running all the way, and he replied: "If you don't like it, I'll ask someone to drag it back now, and I can probably cash it out." β
Xie Minyun turned around, she faced Cheng Mo's burning gaze, "How troublesome is dragging around, how much are you going to fold?"
Cheng Mo saw Xie Minyun's pupils reflecting the gorgeous aurora, she was wearing a white woolen hat, her facial features were so exquisite that they were exciting, but she was standing casually, she had an otherworldly fairy aura and the arrogance of being independent, and she was pure and beautiful without being stained with half of the world.
Cheng Mo's heart was beating like thunder, he felt that Xie Minyun was really more beautiful than the aurora in front of him, so he didn't dare to look at it directly, Cheng Mo said with a dry throat: "How much do you plan to come out?"
Xie Minyun moved in front of Cheng Mo, her white-gloved hands pulled up his blue-gloved hands, she looked at him, and there was an ethereal and deep light circulating in her eyes, "How sweet is the candy here, I'll give you how sweet it is, okay?"
Cheng Mo's breathing began to be short, "How to give?"
Xie Minyun also got a little closer, her nose was filled with the smell of candy and her own faint mint smell, she got closer and closer, and froze that elegant face more than a fist away from Cheng Mo, her floating moist red lips lightly opened, "I applied citrus-flavored lip balm today, do you want to try it?"
Cheng Mo looked at Xie Minyun's rippling cheeks, smelling the delicious taste, he couldn't breathe as if he had altitude sickness, he pursed his lips, as if he was stunned, staring at Xie Minyun's pupils.
Xie Minyun closed his eyes.
Cheng Mo also closed his eyes.
The huge irresistible attraction tugged at his lips and landed on Xie Minyun's lips, and at the moment of touching, he felt like a meteorite falling into the atmosphere, how brilliant this burning was, and how happy it was, he felt that every atom in his body was glowing with magnificent light, and his body was spasmed in the cold wind of the polar regions with interest and enthusiasm, and life was like a bud breaking through the ground, growing tirelessly, climbing towards the sky.....
He felt the softness of Xie Minyun's lips and the sweetness of the tip of his tongue.
In his mind, however, he lamented how fragile they were as carbon-based beings, how fragile the entire human race was, and how fragile it was to survive within a certain narrow limit between cold and heat, and how incapable of understanding the scope of eternity and the place of humanity in the universe.
They can only resist loneliness on the small blue planet with love.
The two of them kissed tirelessly under the aurora on the planet Sugar, which was bigger than a room.
I don't know how long it took for the aurora on the horizon to dim and the bright sky to sink down before the two separated. Xie Minyun was embarrassed, she didn't dare to look at Cheng Mo, hugged him tightly, rested her chin on his shoulder, and asked in a red face and whispered, "Classmate Cheng Mo, is it sweet enough?"
Through the thick outdoor clothes, Cheng Mo could feel Xie Minyun's winding and undulating curves, and his heart was also stirring, like the aurora in the sky fluttering in his chest, "The sweetness is enough, but the amount seems to be much worse." β
"Isn't it enough?" Xie Minyun asked.
"It's still a long way off. β
"That's good! I'll pay you back for the rest of my life, and we'll go get the marriage certificate tomorrow." Xie Minyun plucked up the courage to say that she knew she had to grasp her happiness, a feeling that was very different from a moment of artificiality such as a birthday party or something, which was just a piece of temporary joy.
This kind of happiness is that even if she meets all the extraordinary in this world, I am afraid, she will not be able to find such a place as Cheng Mo where she can feel happiness.
