I am waiting for you to appear. Some scenery you will never forget after seeing it once, and some people you will always care about once you meet them. Even though you have forgotten me, I will wait for you to remember me...
——Night Blue

Early in the morning, I stood in front of the mirror with a smile on my face, carefully adjusting my clothes.
The sunlight shines in through the window, casting warm light on my body. The me in the mirror seems to be coated with a layer of gold, with a soft glow.
I smiled and quietly .
Looking at the brooch on the dressing table, I was stunned. Memories came flooding back. The first thing that came to my mind was Gu Yichen's cold face and emotionless eyes.
I think of him a lot these days.
The faces of the handsome little boy whom he met in the garden as a child and Gu Yichen kept intersecting but never overlapped.
I always feel like something is wrong.
And there is the beautiful but strange girl with Gu Yichen.
Thinking of this, I scratched my hair in confusion, hesitated for a while, picked up the brooch and put it into the small pocket of my schoolbag. I didn't dare to delay any longer and ran to the school.
The morning air was a little cool, making people feel refreshed. But my thoughts were always on the brooch and the memories that kept coming back to me these days.
Suddenly, a pair of slightly cold eyes appeared in my mind, which made me startled.
These familiar eyes...
I slowed down my pace thoughtfully, searching my memory bit by bit, and suddenly recalled the boy I met when I lost the brooch that day, the boy named Ye Lanluo.
He just picked up my brooch, why did I think of him unintentionally?
I recalled Ye Lanluo's face carefully, and always felt that there was something about him that made me unable to forget him .
Perhaps it was because he looked very similar to the beautiful boy when he was a child. Even the aura around him was surprisingly similar, that kind of lonely feeling...
The sunlight gradually became hotter, and the golden light became extremely dazzling.
Looking at such bright colors, my mood became much brighter than before, as if the things that had troubled me just now completely disappeared.
Just as I was about to move on, a familiar figure suddenly flashed before my eyes.
The whole world seemed to become bright at this moment, and I felt like I was struck by a powerful lightning, and I froze there.
That face...
It’s Gu Yichen for sure!
My heart was beating wildly and my thoughts were in a mess.
Oh my god!
Are we studying in the same school?
Gu Yichen's expression remained indifferent, as if no one could attract his attention. Naturally, he didn't notice my existence at all.
But his handsome face attracted the attention of many girls. Those girls gathered in groups of three or four, glanced at him cautiously, and chattered about him.
"Hey...how about you go ask for his phone number?"
"Why should I go? Look at his cold expression, he will definitely refuse..."
"Tsk, then why ? You don't even have the courage!"
"You too!"
The discussions were so loud that many people could hear them, but amidst all the discussions, Gu Yichen still maintained his usual expression, as if everything had nothing to do with him.
His dark eyes were staring blankly and empty in a certain direction, his black hair was slightly lifted, and every step he took was unruly and casual, yet it made people unable to look away.
If he is really the boy I once knew, and we are studying in the same school now, then it really means that we are destined to be together, doesn't it?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but reveal a sweet smile, and my eyes were fixed on Gu Yichen.
My heart was beating happily, and I slowly reached out and pressed my hand on my chest, feeling the different speed of my heartbeat than usual.
But at this moment, another familiar figure suddenly appeared in my sight. He looked at me unscrupulously, his eyes always staying on my face, but I couldn't see what he was thinking.
Why is Ye Lanluo here too?
Is he in the same school as me?
I felt a little uncomfortable when Ye Lanluo looked at me. I don't know why, but Ye Lanluo's seemingly indifferent eyes always gave me an invisible sense of oppression...
My fingers tightly grasped the strap of my schoolbag, trembling slightly and barely perceptibly. I looked at that familiar yet strange face, feeling all of this was incredible.
I suddenly remembered the brooch.
I think, if Ye Lanluo hadn't picked it up, I might have lost this precious thing forever. In any case, he still helped me.
Thinking of this, Ye Lanluo’s image in my eyes suddenly became taller.
Anyway, isn’t it a good thing to get to know more people at school?
Thinking of this, I took a deep breath and planned to go up to them and say hello.
But Gu Yichen didn't notice me at all and gradually walked away in my sight.
I looked at Gu Yichen's back with some melancholy, and unknowingly walked in front of Ye Lanluo.
Ye Lanluo's gaze still stayed on me, as if he wanted to see through something.
Under his gaze, I felt as if the air around me was gradually solidifying, and even breathing seemed a little uncomfortable.
Is it because my clothes are not organized?
Thinking of this, I lowered my head in panic and carefully checked my clothes, but found nothing wrong...
Suddenly remembering all the strange behaviors of Ye Lanluo when I first met him, I pursed my lips in relief and said in a very enthusiastic tone: "Hi! Are you also in this school?"
Ye Lanluo continued to look at me with such complicated eyes and did not answer.
I tried hard to maintain my smile in such an awkward atmosphere.
After a while, he nodded slightly.
I felt a little more relaxed. Perhaps Ye Lanluo was just not good at communicating with others.
"I also want to thank you for the brooch last time..." As he spoke, I noticed that his eyes had slightly changed, so I continued, "Well, you still remember it, right? Thank you so much. I left in a hurry last time and didn't have time to thank you formally. That brooch is really..."
"Do you care a lot?" He had been silent all along, but suddenly interrupted me rudely, but it didn't make me feel unpleasant.
His voice was cold, but not arrogant.
Very concerned?
I completely forgot what I was about to say and stood there, carefully thinking about the meaning of this sentence.
Did he mean the brooch?
Thinking of the brooch, I immediately smiled sweetly: "Yes, the brooch is very important to me, I care about it very much..."
His expression suddenly became complicated.
Did I say something wrong?
Why did Ye Lanluo close his mouth tightly again?
He is such an unpredictable person...
I stood in the hot sun, racking my brains to figure out what went wrong.
The noisy chirping of cicadas came intermittently from somewhere, as if they were also distressed by the awkward atmosphere.
After an unknown amount of time, he finally opened his mouth softly: "I mean, do you care about Gu Yichen?"
"What?" When I suddenly heard the name, my heart skipped a beat, as if it was about to jump out of my throat.
What does this have to do with Gu Yichen?
And...why did Ye Lanluo know his name?
I was already troubled by some problems, and now I was even more at a loss.
Ye Lanluo's expression remained the same. But in such a short time, I don't know how many different expressions he had.
"You've been staring at him." Ye Lanluo raised the corner of his mouth, as if this was the biggest movement he could make, "Always."
"Do I... have it?" My face suddenly became hot when it was pointed out so bluntly.
Was I so obvious just now?
Will more people see it?
"Yeah." I didn't expect this guy to answer so honestly.
"Maybe... maybe you saw it wrong, hehe..."
Suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind, and I quickly stretched out my hand and pointed at the place where Gu Yichen had just appeared: "Look! That tree is very beautiful! I just... just looked at that tree!"
Quack quack——
The atmosphere became tense again, and I could almost see a crow flying slowly over my head, looking at me with contempt.
Well, this reason is too far-fetched.
At this moment, I couldn't find any reason to ease the embarrassment. I could only stand there with a red face, thinking about how to get out of this situation.
People kept walking by, looking at us with a little curiosity.
At this moment, Ye Lanluo's voice sounded again, as if with a very serious emotion.
He said, "Do you like Gu Yichen?"
My mind went blank in an instant. I stared at Ye Lanluo blankly and almost forgot to think about how to answer this question. How did Ye Lanluo see that?
"Is it... obvious?" Perhaps because I had been in the sun for too long, my head became dizzy. Without time to think too much, I blurted out the doubts in my heart.
Ye Lanluo didn't answer, but I saw that the darkness in his eyes deepened.
Seeing Ye Lanluo's eyes, I became even more frustrated. I hung my head and said softly, "But... Gu Yichen doesn't remember me."
I suddenly discovered that Ye Lanluo's eyes had a kind of magic that made it easy for people to express their innermost thoughts.
Ye Lanluo pursed her lips gently, looked at me deeply, and then showed a miserable smile: "It doesn't matter, the girl I like doesn't remember me either."
The sun poured down and sprinkled on Ye Lanluo's face. But Ye Lanluo's smile was so dim at this moment.
Looking at Ye Lanluo’s smile, I suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Ye Lanluo must like that girl very much, right?
Looking at Ye Lanluo in front of me, I felt a little helpless, because I didn't know how to comfort him like this.
I could only stand there and watch Ye Lanluo turn around and walk away step by step...
I don’t know why, Ye Lanluo always looks at me with a strange look, but I don’t hate that look. Instead, I feel sorry for him.
What happened to Ye Lanluo that made him so lonely?
When I arrived at my classroom panting and just sat down, suddenly a pair of soft hands gently covered my eyes.
It became dark before my eyes.
"guess who I am?"
The voice was deliberately hoarse, but still had an irresistible sweetness.
Hearing such a sound, joy filled my heart.
I tried desperately to control the upward movement of the corners of my mouth and stretched out my hands, but I didn't dare to take the hands covering my eyes away, thinking that I was dreaming.
This is clearly Xiaole's voice!
The owner of those hands seemed to understand what I was thinking, and gently and slowly loosened his hands...
The sunlight instantly poured into my eyes. I squinted my eyes with some difficulty adapting, but the smile on my face did not diminish at all.
The smiling girl in front of me is really Xiaole!
But, didn’t Xiaole get into a school in the suburbs?
"Xiao Le, why are you here? Aren't you..." I patted the seat next to me, motioning her to sit down, but I was filled with doubts in my heart.
Xiaole raised his eyebrows mysteriously: "Haha, that was a lie. I just wanted to give you a surprise! And I have good news to tell you."
Damn girl, she lied to me on purpose again.
But I am really happy to be with Xiaole.
"Good news?" Looking at her expression, I couldn't help but frown and think carefully, "Could it be that you found a wallet?"
"Wrong!" She crossed her arms helplessly and made a big "X" gesture. "Why did you think of a wallet? Really... Zimu, we are deskmates!"
Deskmate?
I stared blankly at Xiaole, who was still smiling in front of me, and almost didn't understand what she said.
After a long time, I rubbed my ears, turned my neck stiffly, glanced at the seating chart posted on the blackboard, jumped up from my seat like a spring, and ran towards the seating chart.
The golden sunlight sprinkled on the paper that exuded a faint scent of ink. On the seating chart, the names of Tong Xiaole and Xia Zimu were next to each other.
It’s actually true!
I quickly returned to my seat and made a victory gesture to Xiaole.
She also looked very happy, but kept complaining to me for not noticing it earlier.
I suddenly remembered Gu Yichen and Ye Lanluo whom I met on campus before.
Thinking of this, I interrupted Xiaole's complaints and looked at her excitedly: "Did you know? Gu Yichen is also in this school!"
"Gu Yichen?"
Xiaole looked at me with his mouth wide open in confusion. After a while, as if he remembered something, his eyes immediately widened larger than bells and his voice became higher.
"Is that the boy I met in the cafe last time?"
Looking at Xiaole yelling without caring about his image, I could only nod helplessly.
Xiaole looked at me with a sly smile: "You two are really destined to be together."
Thinking of my encounter with Gu Yichen in the morning, I lowered my head sadly: "But he doesn't remember me at all."
Xiaole frowned tightly. She was about to say something, but suddenly her eyes looked fixed in one direction.
The originally noisy classroom became quiet at this moment.
I was surprised by this change, but found that everyone was looking in the same direction...
I followed everyone's gaze and looked towards the classroom door.
When I saw the slender figure at the classroom door, I couldn't help but let out a very low cry, and then quickly covered my mouth.
The faint sunlight sprinkled on the girl's fair face. Her cheeks were as attractive pink as roses. Her pair of dark eyes looked at the classmates in the classroom somewhat indifferently, and then she walked in on her own in the silent atmosphere.
Her eyes did not rest on anyone, but everyone's eyes were on her.
This beautiful and familiar face...
I breathed softly.
She was the girl who appeared with Gu Yichen in the coffee shop that day!
I tugged at the corner of Xiaole's clothes.
She turned around seriously and said that she still remembered what happened that day.
Looking at that expressionless but extremely beautiful face, a strange feeling occupied my heart.
A face like this...it's hard to forget even if I want to.
Class started soon.
After everyone introduced themselves, I learned her name - Su Xiyu.
It sounds much more delicate than my name.
Suddenly, I shivered unconsciously.
Why do I have to compare everything with her?
Could it be because of...Gu Yichen?
I shook my head hurriedly, drove all these messy questions out of my mind, and tried my best to focus all my attention on the class.
After finally spending a restless morning in chaos, Xiaole and I walked slowly towards the cafeteria, holding our lunch boxes.
After finally finding a seat in the huge crowd , we sat down exhausted and ate listlessly.
Suddenly, Xiaole, who was originally concentrating on eating, brightened up his eyes. He nudged me with his elbow and motioned me to look in a direction.
At this moment, a strange premonition occupied my heart, and when I turned my head, I saw the familiar figures...
It was indeed Gu Yichen and Su Xiyu.
I withdrew my gaze indifferently, smiled gently at Xiaole, and tapped her lunch box with my chopsticks: "Let's eat."
Xiaole curled his lips, but kept glancing in that direction: "Zimu, you know, I've heard a lot about those three people!"
three people……
I put down the chopsticks in my hand in confusion.
In a flash, I suddenly realized that Xiaole was talking about Su Xiyu, Gu Yichen and Ye Lanluo!
Come on! How did she know so much in just one morning?
Xiaole seemed to have guessed what I was thinking, and he smiled: "Don't underestimate me, I know everything about them!"
I don’t know when, Gu Yichen and Su Xiyu disappeared from my sight.
The aroma of food filled the entire cafeteria. The surroundings were noisy, with the laughter of girls and the voices of boys loudly discussing interesting things filling the entire space, but for some reason, Xiaole's voice sounded extremely clear in my ears.
"Ye Lanluo and Gu Yichen are both among the most famous figures in this school." Xiaole moved closer to me and picked at the food in the lunch box from time to time. "Both of them are good-looking, and they have good family backgrounds. Almost everyone knows them."
"A celebrity..." I stared blankly at the green vegetables in front of me, not knowing what to feel.
Isn't it good to be the center of attention every day? Then why does Ye Lanluo have such a lonely expression?
Xiaole was immersed in his own gossip and didn't notice my absent-minded expression. He continued to talk to himself, "If you want to say which one of the two is more popular, it's actually Gu Yichen, because Ye Lanluo has a very strange personality..."
"Strange?" Hearing this, I suddenly perked up and asked back.
Indeed, he has a strange personality. I had this feeling from the first time I saw him.
Is there any special reason?
I stared at Xiaole, only to see her shrug her shoulders: "Yes, it's very strange, he seems to hate getting close to anyone, as if no one can get close to him."
"Oh, I see..." Not hearing any useful information, I responded helplessly.
"But if you ask me, Ye Lanluo is more attractive!" Xiaole suddenly held up his chin and stared at one place in a trance, "Because to me, boys like that are more attractive."
Attractive?
As Xiaole said, I imagined that his strange way of expression, unchanging facial expression, and secretive whereabouts would easily arouse people's curiosity.
As for the attraction...
I burst out laughing.
If it is matched with his face, this statement is still barely valid.
Xiaole in front of me looked at me strangely, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of me, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
I came back to my senses instantly, coughed awkwardly twice, and quickly changed the subject: "Nothing. Well, there's also... Su Xiyu! Yes, there's also her."
"Oh, by the way, Su Xiyu. Actually , there's nothing special about her. I heard that she has a good family background and is pretty. The only thing worth noting is that she is often with Gu Yichen, but the person she likes is not Gu Yichen."
Don’t you like Gu Yichen?
I recalled the scene where Su Xiyu smiled as beautifully as a flower at Gu Yichen.
Such a smile...
How could she not like Gu Yichen?
Thinking about Gu Yichen and Su Xiyu, I felt a little lost, but Ye Lanluo's sad face slowly emerged in my mind ...
Xiaole in front of me was still saying something, but I had no intention of listening. The faces of Gu Yichen and Ye Lanluo kept changing .
Just as I was thinking about it, an extremely familiar figure suddenly appeared at the cafeteria door.
It’s Su Xiyu.
I opened my mouth in surprise, not understanding why she was here.
Didn’t she just leave with Gu Yichen?
I saw her standing at the door of the cafeteria looking around, with an empty lunch box in her hand. She must have come back to help get some food.
I stared blankly at her as she looked around the cafeteria.
She looked around for a few times, and finally her eyes fell on me.
My mind went blank and I completely forgot where I was. I just stared at her blankly.
One second...
Two seconds...
Three seconds...
I don’t know how long this awkward stare lasted. Su Xiyu gently raised the corner of her mouth. For some reason, looking from a distance, it seemed a bit provocative.
My heart tightened.
I clenched the chopsticks in my hand and lowered my head in panic.
Ever since we first met, there was something wrong with her eyes...
Have I forgotten something important that has to do with this girl?
Just as I was thinking this, Su Xiyu had walked to my side without me noticing. She stopped there, and her dark eyes stared at my face again, studying me for a few seconds.
Xiaole, who was standing by, had no idea what was going on, and asked Su Xiyu curiously, "What's the matter?"
I bit my lip and my hands trembled a little.
"You really are haunting me." Su Xiyu did not answer Xiaole's words, but just said these few words to me lightly.
In the noisy cafeteria, such a soft voice echoed in my ears extremely clearly.
I slowly raised my head, only to see that she had quickly turned her head away and walked past me as if nothing had happened.
Faced with the food in front of me, I no longer had the mood to eat.
Why did she say that?
Is it because I was getting close to Gu Yichen in the coffee shop last time and she is jealous? But didn’t Xiaole say that Su Xiyu didn’t like Gu Yichen? Then this reason is too forced...
I lowered my head helplessly and gave a bitter smile. She seemed to be quite hostile to me.
I gently closed the lunch box and said to Xiaole who was still looking at me curiously, "Let's go."
This dull lunch did not affect my mood too much. Xiaole was talking and laughing beside me, and those unhappy things soon disappeared.
The bell for class was about to ring, but the teacher walked into the classroom early and announced an important news to everyone - the school would hold an art exhibition tomorrow.
"You can see excellent works of many students from our school at the exhibition!" the teacher announced the news with a smile on his face.
The students immediately cheered.
"But..." The teacher suddenly said these two words, which stopped the cheers. Everyone's eyes were focused on the teacher. "Students, you have to prepare for tomorrow's art exhibition this afternoon and do a general cleaning!"
"Ah——" The students sighed in unison, and an expression of impatience instantly appeared on their faces.
The teacher looked at the students with a smile and continued patiently: "Students, keep working hard! Now I will assign tasks for you..."
After the teacher assigned tasks to everyone, everyone left the classroom dejectedly to get the tools needed for the general cleaning...
Students were cleaning every corner of the exhibition hall with cleaning tools.
Xiaole and I were assigned to clean a secluded place. We cleaned lazily while chatting about interesting things.
Suddenly, a slender figure appeared in the field of vision.
His eyes swept over me lightly without lingering for too long, but I felt as if a subtle electric current was running from the top of my head to my whole body, hitting my heart and causing a slight tremor.
It's Ye Lanluo.
His shirt sleeves were casually rolled up, but he didn't look sloppy. His black hair was neatly styled, showing a warm color in the sun.
"Um, Xiaole, I have something to do, I'll be back later..." My eyes followed Ye Lanluo who was slowly walking forward. I turned around and hurriedly gave instructions to Xiaole, then chased in the direction of Ye Lanluo.
Xiaole showed an expression of understanding, made a cheering gesture, and had a mischievous smile on his face.
My cheeks instantly felt hot.
I just went to talk to Ye Lanluo, she must have thought of something else...
In order not to embarrass myself in front of Ye Lanluo, I quickly reached out and patted my hot cheeks, and tried my best to control my heartbeat.
call……
call……
I took a few deep breaths.
Noticing that I was approaching him, Ye Lanluo actually stopped. It seemed that he was standing there waiting for me.
For some reason, every time I see Ye Lanluo like this, I think of the handsome boy in the past. He was sitting there alone, with a lonely and distressing expression on his face.
That feeling of loneliness enveloped me in my dreams many nights, making it almost impossible for me to breathe.
He seems to be a person who is not good at expressing himself. He must have to bear all the sad things by himself.
Seeing him like this, I couldn't help but want to get close to him and comfort him...
"Hi, are you in a group alone?" I took a deep breath, found a very relaxed topic in a bright tone and greeted him naturally.
Ye Lanluo looked at me indifferently and answered simply: "Yeah."
This guy……
I frowned .
Why does he always speak so briefly?
"I heard that there will be many excellent works of art in tomorrow's art exhibition. Ye Lanluo, are you interested in art?" I continued to look for topics with a smile.
"Not bad." He answered without hesitation, "I have learned it."
"Ah..." I said approvingly, "I used to like painting, but I just don't have the talent." I racked my brains to think of something I could say to arouse his interest. "Do you... have any other hobbies?"
Ye Lanluo's expression finally showed a slight change.
He glanced at me with a complicated expression, as if he didn't understand why I suddenly came to ask these questions.
I smiled a little embarrassedly.
My behavior is indeed a bit strange.
Judging from Ye Lanluo’s expression, I don’t think he will answer me.
But I didn’t expect Ye Lanluo to answer me: “Otherwise… nothing, some exercise.”
Although the answer this time was still very brief, it had many more words than before, which gave me more confidence.
He doesn't seem as cold as he looks...
Thinking of this, I was no longer timid and asked many questions in succession.
Although he always answered me in the simplest and most concise language, he did not show any impatience.
Suddenly, a question that had been bothering me for a long time flashed through my mind.
After thinking for a while, I asked carefully: "Um, Ye Lanluo, I have another question."
"Hmm." He uttered this word softly.
"You and Gu Yichen know each other, right? Are you... friends?" After carefully considering the words, I uttered this sentence with difficulty.
But... something I didn't expect happened -
Ye Lanluo, who had originally had a calm expression, suddenly froze.
The air seemed to freeze at this moment.
I was frightened by the sudden change in the atmosphere and carefully observed Ye Lanluo's expression.
I saw him frowning, but didn't answer my question. Instead, he turned and left without even saying goodbye.
My heart seemed to have sunk to the bottom at that moment.
As expected... Did I ask a question that I shouldn't have asked?
I stood there stupidly, watching Ye Lanluo walk away, clutching the corner of my clothes tightly, feeling extremely panicked——
What's up with him?
Are you angry?
But why do I care so much about his reaction?
Also, what is going on with that familiar feeling deep in my heart?
It's like...we've known each other for a long time...
Because of this failed conversation, I felt extremely bad.
I finished the cleaning hastily, and until the school bell rang, I was wondering if I had said something wrong before.
After saying goodbye to Xiaole, I walked home alone.
It was already evening and the sunset occupied most of the sky.
I gently raised my face, feeling the unique scenery at this moment.
"Please accept this!"
The crisp sound came into my ears like summer wind chimes.
I turned my head curiously, looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a pair of figures.
My mouth opened in surprise.
It was Gu Yichen and a strange girl.
They stood under a lush banyan tree, and the setting sun stretched their shadows very long.
The girl was holding a beautiful gift box with a bow in her hands, her cheeks flushed, and she hardly dared to look up at Gu Yichen.
When I saw Gu Yichen, I couldn't help but stop and couldn't take my eyes off him.
The girl 's voice was a little louder than before, and she raised her hand holding the box a little higher: "Please accept this!" After saying this, her neck turned pink, "I... I like you..."
Confession?
I covered my mouth in shock, staring blankly at the scene in front of me.
It seems that Gu Yichen is really popular!
I suddenly became curious about how he would react to something like this.
Just as I was thinking about this question, I saw Gu Yichen revealing a slightly cold and sarcastic smile.
The girl's hands holding the box were obviously shaking, and she still didn't dare to raise her head.
"You said...you like me?"
I was not far away, so I could hear Gu Yichen's words clearly.
The girl didn't seem to have the courage to speak and just nodded continuously.
I don’t know why, but when I saw Gu Yichen like this, I had an extremely uneasy feeling in my heart.
Sure enough, Gu Yichen reached out his hand and gently stroked the beautiful box, but his tone was completely opposite to his actions: "Before you say this, go back and look in the mirror first!"
The air around them seemed to be completely frozen because of these words.
The girl's hands froze there, the pink on her face and neck quickly disappeared, she looked up in disbelief, staring blankly at Gu Yichen who still had a mocking smile on his face.
I stood there, almost doubting that I had heard it wrong.
If this is too much...
How could he say that?
Looking at the shocked and helpless girl in front of him, Gu Yichen just pushed back the beautiful box and left without looking back.
The girl stood there, tears welling up from her red eyes.
unacceptable!
Seeing Gu Yichen's indifferent look, I couldn't help but quickly walk up to him and look him in the eye: "You should apologize to that girl!"
My voice was loud and echoed in the air for a long time.
Gu Yichen was obviously very surprised at my appearance.
He looked me up and down, then raised the corner of his mouth slightly: "You are not that..."
"What you just said was really too much!" Thinking of the girl's pitiful and terrified look, I couldn't help but interrupt him and scolded him, "You shouldn't hurt her feelings..."
"She is your friend?" Gu Yichen looked interested.
friend?
I didn't expect him to ask such a question, and I shook my head subconsciously.
"That's right. It should have nothing to do with you." Although he was smiling, his tone was cold, "Some things are better left alone."
He spoke very fluently and coherently, leaving me no chance to retort.
I stood there in disbelief and wanted to shout out his name again, but my throat was so dry that I couldn't utter a word.
"And..." Gu Yichen's smile deepened, but he did not forget to continue mocking me, "Since the answer is no, would the result be different if I changed my tone?"
"You..." I was so angry that I couldn't utter a complete sentence.
"Boring!" He seemed to not care about my reaction at all. He frowned slightly, showing an expression of disgust, then left with a smile.
this person……
This cold-blooded guy...
Is he really the kind boy I once knew who said he would take me to see the sunflowers?
My eyes felt sore and tears started to fall without me noticing.
I stood there dejectedly, at a loss as to what to do.
At this moment, the image of Ye Lanluo suddenly appeared in front of him - a faint expression, lazy movements, and a calm look.
That familiar feeling instantly filled my heart.
I shook my head, trying to calm myself down.
However, Ye Lanluo’s face could not be erased from my mind no matter what.
I quickly rubbed my eyes and looked again.
His face is still there?
I reached out my hand dully and touched Ye Lanluo’s face in front of me.
"ah!"
I hastily pulled my hand back and let out a soft scream.
It has temperature!
It is true!
Ye Lanluo really appeared in front of me!
"You, you saw everything...how come you are here?" I was a little incoherent, but my heart was filled with joy that was hard to conceal.
Ye Lanluo looked at me with a faint expression.
He must have seen what just happened, but he didn't ask any questions. He just gently pulled my arm.
"I'll take you somewhere," he said briefly.
"Ah?" I opened my eyes wide in confusion, "Where are you going? I still need to go home..."
Ye Lanluo turned around and glanced at me.
I immediately stopped what I was about to say.
Why are you so fierce?
I raised my eyebrows in slight dissatisfaction, but it was difficult to hide the growing joy in my heart.
I just followed him, letting him pull me forward. For some reason, I felt very safe, as if I didn't have to worry about any danger at all.
We seemed to have walked for a long time and came to a place I had never been to before.
It was a small wooden house that looked a little shabby, but it gave me a very clean feeling.
Ye Lanluo stopped, stretched out his hand, and motioned me to open the door of the wooden house.
After a not-so-intense ideological struggle, I gritted my teeth, walked forward and pushed open the door of the wooden house.
“Squeak—”
Under the faint sunset, dust dances lightly.
The aroma that hit me made my head buzz.
Before your eyes are large patches of colorful flowers, set against the backdrop of crisp green leaves, like a fairyland.
My mouth opened in surprise.
There are so many flowers, some with names and some without names...
I turned to Ye Lanluo excitedly and asked stutteringly: "Is this yours?"
The light in Ye Lanluo's eyes was unusually gentle. He nodded and motioned for me to go in.
Sunflowers, roses, violets...
I looked at each flower carefully, and couldn't help reaching out and touching their beautiful petals.
"Did you plant these?" I asked in admiration.
"Yeah." Ye Lanluo's eyes also lingered on those flowers.
I smile.
He must be a very careful person to be able to grow these flowers into such a beautiful appearance...
"For you." Ye Lanluo, who had been silent all along, suddenly said this.
"What?" I was confused.
Ye Lanluo looked around at the flowers and smiled sadly: "My greenhouse was built for her. Xia Zimu, you know, I like to see you smile, just like her, bright and sunny."
she?
She should be the girl that Ye Lanluo likes, right?
Hearing Ye Lanluo say this, I suddenly felt a little sad.
"Xia Zimu, this greenhouse can be given to you." Ye Lanluo looked at me seriously and repeated patiently, "If you are in a bad mood one day, you can come here anytime."
I could hardly believe my ears and thought it was all just a dream.
But Ye Lanluo's expression reminded me that this was all true.
But I can’t accept…
I gave Ye Lanluo a grateful smile: "Ye Lanluo, thank you, but since the greenhouse was built for her, you should bring her here! I believe she will like it here, thank you..."
A cool breeze blew in from the open door.
My "thank you" also blended into the fragrance of the flowers and became sweet.
