You said you were leaving and would come back tomorrow. What you once could not forget, do you still remember now? Turning around is not a farewell, but separation is inseparable. Flying across the sea of ​​time and space of longing, are you still there?

I quickly ran to the elevator and pressed the button breathlessly. The elevator slowly went up, and I was flustered. Fortunately, the elevator arrived soon with a "ding" sound. I walked into the empty elevator, pressed the door open button, and breathed a sigh of relief.
However, at the moment when the elevator door slowly closed, I saw a tall and thin black figure running towards me. The next second, that person stretched one arm into the elevator to block the door that was about to close. He was tall and thin, and had a cold aura. Naturally, it could only be Xu Jue.
He walked into the elevator without saying a word and expressionlessly, with his hands in his trouser pockets and his back to me. I subconsciously moved to the corner, my heart beating wildly for no apparent reason.
The elevator door closed, and in the small space, there were only him and I in silence. For a moment, it was so quiet that even the air seemed to freeze.
Then, I heard him sigh softly as if he admitted defeat.
"Su-Mo-Li!" The next second, he suddenly turned around, took a step forward, and propped himself on the elevator wall beside me with one hand, forcing me into the corner of the elevator. Then, he paused, looked down at me, and said through gritted teeth, "Su-Mo-Li, do you like to leave without saying goodbye so much? Do you want to play it twice?"
It turned out that he was still angry because I left without saying goodbye that winter morning. I lowered my head and whispered with a guilty conscience: "No, I just said goodbye to you..."
"Did I let you go just now? Su Moli, I waited for you for so long in a place you didn't know, when you didn't know, could you not wait for me for one more second? Are you in such a hurry to leave? You didn't even leave me a back view when I turned around?" Xu Jue stared at me with scorching eyes, "Su Moli, do you think that because I love you, you can come and go as you please, and you can come and go in my life and in my world as you please?"
He looked furious, but I didn't feel scared. I just felt sad. But I couldn't find any words. I could only say blankly: "No, no..."
He didn't say anything, just looked down at me, his bright eyes seemed to dim in an instant. My eyes suddenly became wet, as if water vapor blurred my eyes. I couldn't see his expression, I only heard him say desperately: "Su Moli, you come and go in my world, it doesn't matter, who told me to love you?"
Even though it wasn't the first time he said this, I was still stunned and couldn't say a word.
He placed his arms firmly on the elevator wall and leaned closer to me, with the tip of his nose almost touching my forehead. I had no choice but to look up into his eyes. His gaze was shallow, but it seemed to penetrate straight into one's heart.
"Yes, I love you. More than I thought." He said openly, as if he had given it all away. "I'm not color blind. It's no coincidence that I always wore navy blue clothes when you met me before. Because you mistook the boy wearing navy blue clothes for me in the library, and because you said that I was wearing navy blue when you first saw me, so I remembered it. I almost uncontrollably wanted to appear in front of you wearing navy blue clothes so that you could recognize me."
"Su Moli, do you know?" He turned his face slightly to one side, as if he was a little angry with himself, and said, "I hate imitating others the most, and I disdain to be someone else's shadow. But later, I knew that the three words 'navy blue' represent Chu Yubai in your heart. The reason you can recognize me wearing navy blue is not because you have me in your eyes, but because I, wearing navy blue clothes, remind you of Chu Yubai..."
"But even so, I still want to wear navy blue clothes and appear in front of you." He tilted his head, with soft light in his slender eyes, "Also, that night, you stood in the pavilion all night, and I stood with you in the dark all night. After dawn, you went to find Bai Mingxue. I knew that you were going to Nepal with her to find Chu Yubai. At that time, I should have left silently, but I couldn't help but quietly drove to the airport with you. It's really strange. In the eyes of others, I am obviously a selfish and indifferent person. However, at that moment, I saw you who was distraught in the airport, and I silently prayed in my heart, 'Let Su Moli go to Nepal to find the one she loves.' It sounds hypocritical and ridiculous, right? But, at that moment, I really thought so. I never knew that I could be so selfless..."
As he was talking, he started laughing at himself, but I felt that his lonely smile was so sad that I couldn't say a word.
"In the eyes of others, I am aloof and arrogant. I have always believed that I am a person with principles and bottom lines." He smiled gently, but his eyes were full of sadness. "But, after meeting you, I realized that my bottom line can be lowered again and again. It turns out that the once arrogant me can also be so humble."
"Su Moli!" He stopped and looked at me intently, "I just want to use my remaining little self-esteem to protect my last bit of pride. If you don't love me, then I won't bother you. But, Su Moli, why did you come to me again, when I almost thought I had forgotten you..."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." I bit my lips tightly, tears welling up in my eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm sorry, I will never come to see you again."
"You!" Xu Jue pursed his thin lips, looking as if he was trying hard to control his emotions. A flash of loneliness and sadness flashed across his slender eyes. Then he laughed softly, his eyebrows raised, and in an instant he returned to his rebellious look.
He stared at me and said in a domineering and straightforward manner: "Su Moli, I never like to force others. If you don't have me in your heart at all, I will definitely stay away from you. However, if you have me in your heart, even if it's only a little bit, I will never let go, because in my world there is no such thing as 'retreat' and 'give up halfway'. I never know when to stop, and I will never give up just because you retreat."
"So, Su Moli," he looked at me with burning eyes and said word by word, "Now, I will never let you escape from me again."
His voice was soft and low, but it seemed as if every word fell into my heart, and my heart was confused and flustered.
"Don't you understand?" He turned his head and smiled at me, with an understanding and confident look, "Su Moli, how did you recognize me just now? I wasn't wearing navy blue clothes, and I didn't talk to you. I just stood in front of the window with my back to you, and you recognized me at a glance. What does this mean?"
He lowered his head to look into my eyes, his face almost touching mine. I lowered my eyes in panic and asked subconsciously, "What?"
He said without a doubt: "Su Moli, before you realize it, I have already walked into your heart."
His words were like a spell, easily freezing me. I froze in place, that inexplicable fear surged up again, was there Xu Jue in my heart?
No, no, no, there is only one Chu Yubai in my heart from beginning to end, and there can only be one Chu Yubai. There is already one Chu Yubai living in my heart, how can I allow someone else to come in? This is impossible!
But why, when it should be such an indisputable fact, I can't say a word to refute Xu Jue's words?
Isn't it true that being able to recognize someone at a glance in a bustling crowd is not just Chu Yubai's specialty?
This realization made me panic and at a loss. Fortunately, the elevator reached the first floor at this time. I pushed Xu Jue away as if I was saved and tried to escape in a panic.
However, Xu Jue grabbed my arm, dragged me into the elevator without saying a word, and quickly pressed the highest floor button.
The elevator door slowly closed and the elevator went up. I screamed in horror: "No, it's not like that. There is only one Chu in my heart..."
He suddenly turned around and pressed me against the wall of the elevator. The next second, his lips fell down and kissed me intently and domineeringly. It was as if my soul had been sucked out and I had lost all the oxygen. I stood there like a puppet, the only part that could move was my eyes. I blinked, thinking it was just a terrifying dream. However, his slightly closed eyes and gently trembling eyelashes were so close and clear, but I didn't push him away immediately...
"Su Moli..." After a long while, he let me go, looked at me with a smile on his lips and said, "You like me."
Although he used the declarative sentence confidently, there was a hint of begging in his tone.
I came back to my senses and shook my head in despair and helplessness. How could I like Xu Jue?
" Are you still not admitting it, Su Moli?" He gently pinched my chin, forcing me to look him in the eye. "If you don't like me, why did you rush to see me? If you don't like me, how could you recognize me among so many people with your face blindness? If you don't like me, why didn't you push me away just now? If you don't like me..."
“Stop it!” I screamed, afraid that he would say something horrifying again. I tried to stop him in a stern voice, but in the end it turned into a pitiful beg, “Stop it, please, don’t say it anymore…”
"Su Moli, how long are you going to keep lying to yourself?" His tone was cold, but in his slender eyes there was a rare soft light as warm as water.
"I can't admit it..." I clenched my fists tightly, my nails digging into my flesh, and leaned against the elevator wall, muttering to myself like crazy, "I can't admit it... I swore that in this life, I would only try to remember one face; in this life, I would only try to love one person. How can I admit that I like someone else?"
"I know that I am timid and cowardly, and I have no responsibility..." I babbled like a madman, "The person I love is gone, and I don't even have the courage to look for him. I'm afraid that I won't be able to find him, and I'm afraid that if I find him, he will never be able to say a word to me again. So, I told myself, Su Moli, it's okay, you know where he is, he is always in your heart! Whenever I feel that I can't hold on any longer, I can only think about Chu Yubai who lives in my heart, and then I have the strength to move forward. But...but, now you tell me that another person has entered my heart, does that mean that Chu Yubai who lives in my heart is about to disappear? My heart is the only place where I can find Chu Yubai. If I can't find him there, then I will really lose him completely...I can't live without Chu Yubai. The road of life is so long and so cold. Without Chu Yubai, how can I go alone? I can't do it alone..."
I bit my lips desperately to prevent the tears from falling, but the tears fell like a heavy rain. I smelled a fishy and sweet smell. I had bitten my lip, but I didn't feel any pain at all because the left side of my chest was numb from the pain.
"Jasmine, I'm sorry, Jasmine!" Xu Jue sighed softly as if he had admitted defeat, and hugged me tightly even though I was about to collapse. He hugged me so tightly, as if he was afraid that I would disappear if he let go. "You said that you must have that person living in your heart so that you have the strength to live. Then let him live in your heart. What's the problem? You can take your time. I can wait. But please don't reject me outright, okay? At least, let me know that I have a reason to wait..."
He spoke so softly and tried to accommodate me. I was like a child who was trying hard to hold back his grievances, but suddenly his words touched my sad part and I couldn't help but burst into tears.
He silently patted my back, and for no reason, my tears welled up even more. Perhaps it was because I needed to vent my suppressed emotions, or perhaps it was just because this boy who was often cynical and occasionally serious gave me a sense of security, and I felt that I could rest assured and cry silently on his shoulder.
I concentrated on shedding tears, as if in that way Chu Yubai would really always live in my heart, as if in that way he would never disappear.
Therefore, I have no memory of how Xu Jue took me out of the hotel and how he sent me back to the dormitory that night. I only remember that he stood in front of the dormitory building under the golden orange street light, with a smug look on his face and a cautious tone, and said to me: "Su Moli, let's go to the movies tomorrow. Others do this together."
Of course, others are referring to couples.
As he said this, he had already handed over the movie ticket, which was the well-received domestic animated film "The Monkey King: Hero is Back".
I was surprised. Why did he buy two movie tickets in advance?
He turned his head away awkwardly and said, "Today I saw others going to the movies, so I bought two tickets for tomorrow. I originally thought I could only go alone..."
When he said this, he suddenly turned around and looked at me, and his sparkling eyes seemed to be filled with thousands of stars.
The arrogant Xu Jue suddenly looked at me with a gentle and pleading look. I couldn't bear to refuse, so I reached out to take the movie ticket, but I was struck by lightning and froze in my tracks.
Not far behind Xu Jue, in the dim light, there was a person standing far away, dressed in a striking navy blue, looking very elegant.
It’s Chu Yubai.
The night wind was cool, and there was a fresh scent of jasmine as the wind blew past. Chu Yubai, dressed in navy blue, stood in the mottled shadows of the trees, smiling at me. Everything seemed like a beautiful dream.
I stood there in a daze, squinting my eyes to look. In the swaying shadows of the trees as the wind blew, the smile in the corner of the eyes of that young man was like the warm willow breeze when the sky is full of apricot blossoms. Who else could it be but Chu Yubai?
Dear Chu Yubai, he is really back!
I was so overwhelmed by the joy that I was stunned for several seconds. It was not until Xu Jue realized something was wrong and looked back in surprise that I suddenly realized that the person standing in the watery moonlight was Chu Yubai! The Chu Yubai I loved, he was back!
Almost subconsciously, I bypassed Xu Jue and ran forward two steps quickly. Then I saw Bai Mingxue standing next to Chu Yubai. Suddenly, I felt an unspeakable shame in my great joy. It was Bai Mingxue who traveled thousands of miles to find Chu Yubai, but what did I do? I just cried in the arms of another boy. I even wanted to let another boy into my heart!
Su Moli, you are not qualified to have this happiness!
I stood there in shock. I wanted to throw myself into Chu Yubai's arms right away, but my legs wouldn't obey me. I just stood there feeling guilty and at a loss.
Then, I saw Chu Yubai running towards me quickly. The next second, he hugged me in his arms, as if he was holding me tightly with all his strength, and whispered in my ear: "Jasmine, Jasmine... I'm sorry for making you wait for so long..."
I looked up at him in a daze, unable to believe that everything before my eyes was real. Maybe this was just a cruel yet real dream that God used to punish me?
It won't be long before the dream ends, and then there will be endless sorrow.
"Jasmine, Jasmine..." Chu Yubai called my name softly over and over again, hugging me tighter, "Jasmine, it's me, I'm back..."
"Chu Yubai..." I looked up at him blankly, closed my eyes, and reached out to trace his appearance, his heroic eyebrows, his straight nose, his thin lips...
That’s right, this is Chu Yubai, whom I have secretly liked and waited for for a long time.
"Chu Yubai, it's really you!" I opened my eyes trembling, and tears slowly fell down, and then I couldn't stop, pouring down.
I stared at him without blinking, and started laughing while crying: "Chu Yubai, this is not a dream, right? You really came back to me, right? I knew it, I knew it a long time ago, you would definitely come back, you said you would wait for me at C University, so, I knew you would definitely come back..."
"Su Moli..." Chu Yubai sighed softly, holding my hand and kissing it again and again, "I was so worried about you, I knew that if I didn't come back, you would keep waiting forever. Because I thought of you who would wait foolishly, foolishly, I gritted my teeth and endured those days of coma, and tried desperately to wake up. Moli, I traveled through mountains and rivers, and cut through thorns and brambles, just to be able to come back to your side."
When he said this, his eyes, which had been curved in a slight smile, suddenly turned red. The tears that had just stopped fell again, but I was trying hard to smile.
"Silly!" he said, "Remember, no matter how far away I am from you, no matter where I am in the world, I will come back to you without hesitation."
I held back my tears and nodded desperately.
Then, he smiled with his eyes curved, "You see, we are still so in tune with each other. You sensed that I would come back, so you were waiting for me here, right?"
I was stunned, biting my lips, but I couldn't nod my head no matter what. How could I bear to lie to such a kind-hearted Chu Yubai? But I couldn't tell him that I was standing here not because I had a premonition that he was back, but because I was discussing with other boys whether to go to the movies. Just a moment ago, I even cried on the shoulder of the boy named Xu Jue...
Xu Jue, when this name suddenly appeared in my mind, I suddenly remembered Xu Jue who I had left aside. I subconsciously turned my head to look, and in the dim light, a boy in a black suit stood silently. The moment I turned my head to look at him, his eyes stopped on my face, curved his mouth corners, smiled brightly, then turned around resolutely and strode away.
I watched Xu Jue's thin and tall back slowly disappear into the darkness, and thought of his last smile that was as bright as the sun. I suddenly felt sad and uneasy, as if Xu Jue, who left silently like that, who was alone in the darkness, would disappear from my world and would never be found again.
I stood there in a daze and opened my mouth slightly, but in the end I couldn't utter the word "Xu Jue".
"What's wrong?" Chu Yubai followed my gaze into the darkness.
I shook my head, forcing myself not to think about it anymore: "Nothing..."
"Come, let me introduce you to my classmate Bai Mingxue." Chu Yubai pulled me towards the girl standing not far away, waving and smiling at me, and said casually, "I forgot that you two have known each other for a long time."
I lowered my eyes, not daring to look into Chu Yubai's eyes. He probably already knew that Bai Mingxue came to find me, but I didn't go to Nepal with Bai Mingxue, and I gave up looking for him. The guilt welled up in my heart again, making me subconsciously want to pull my hand back. Chu Yubai seemed to have seen through my thoughts in an instant, and said nothing, but just held my hand even tighter.
I would rather he looked at me with contempt, or even scolded me, but he didn't. He just held my hand tightly and looked at me with a pair of eyes as warm as water, and my nose suddenly felt sore.
"Jasmine!" Bai Mingxue jumped in front of me and said happily, "How is it? Did I give you a big surprise? How about we drink tonight to celebrate Yu Bai's safe return? Also, you must listen to our legendary experience in Nepal!"
"Okay." I nodded and walked into the darkness first to prevent them from seeing my tears.
After Chu Yubai and Bai Mingxue settled down in the hotel next to C University, I went out alone to buy beer. It was already nine o'clock in the evening. Although the temperature had dropped, the summer night in C City was still a bit hot and humid. I walked out of the hotel door and breathed a sigh of relief. I was surprised to find that my left hand, which had been clenched all the time, was wet with sweat. I opened my left fist blankly, and there was a wrinkled little paper ball in the palm of my hand. It was the movie ticket for "The Return of the Great Sage". It turned out that I had been holding it tightly like this.
I turned my head and saw the trash can next to me. I wanted to throw the ticket into the trash can, but I carefully flattened the small movie ticket and put it in my wallet. I comforted myself that I kept the ticket not because I expected anything, but because I didn't want to waste it. That's all.
Ten minutes later, when I returned to the hotel with beer, Bai Mingxue couldn't wait to tell me everything about Chu Yubai.
She said, "Moli, do you know? Yubai was trapped under a collapsed building during the earthquake. After being rescued, he remained unconscious. Because no identification documents were found on him, he was treated in a local hospital in Nepal... Later, I went to Nepal and found him in a coma in the hospital..."
She used a very simple sentence to describe the process of how she found Chu Yubai, but I clearly understood the hardships involved, and therefore felt even more guilty.
She smiled happily and joyfully, winked at me innocently and said, "Thank God, I finally woke him up two days ago. Jasmine, guess how I woke him up from his coma?"
I shook my head. Although I was sad that I was not the one who found and woke up Chu Yubai myself, I couldn't help but like and admire this enthusiastic, cheerful and straightforward girl in front of me.
She smiled and said, "Well... I sang "Jasmine Flower" to him! Then, he woke up, and the first thing he did when he woke up was to come back to see you. So, Jasmine, Yubai really loves you."
When she said this, Chu Yubai smiled at me silently, his eyes as bright as yesterday's stars. I lowered my head, not daring to meet his gaze.
Then, I heard Bai Mingxue laugh and say, "Ah, in addition to "Jasmine Flower", I also sang MJ's "Beat It", so which song woke you up?"
Chu Yubai blinked and answered, "Beat It."
A second later, they burst into laughter in tacit understanding.
I looked at them blankly, and Chu Yubai smiled and explained, "When we were at Yale, this was our group's battle song before the exam."
"Oh." I tried to smile and pretend that I understood their joke.
Chu Yubai was about to clink glasses with me, but Bai Mingxue suddenly called out softly, "Hey, did you forget that you just got out of the hospital? The doctor said you can't drink..."
"Let me do it," I snatched the beer from Chu Yubai's hand, "Let me drink it..."
I raised my head and drank it all in one gulp. Maybe I drank too quickly, I choked and coughed up tears. In front of Bai Mingxue, I really had no right to say that I loved Chu Yubai. I didn't even notice that he couldn't drink after recovering from a serious injury.
That night, I drank a lot of wine, including Chu Yubai's. When my consciousness gradually blurred, I heard Chu Yubai say, "Moli, apply to an American university and go to the United States with me, okay? We never want to be separated again."
I clearly wanted to nod, but I didn’t know if it was the effect of the alcohol, but I shook my head: "Chu Yubai, do you know? I... I suddenly feel very scared, I... I don’t seem to love you that much..."
I knew I was talking nonsense, but I couldn't control myself and murmured, "No... I love you. It's just... it's just that it seems like someone loves you more than me. I used to think that I was the person who loved you the most in this world, but it turns out that I'm not the case at all. Do you know? When Mingxue came to me and asked me to go to Nepal with her to find you, I refused her. At that time, I lied to myself that I didn't go to Nepal because I wanted to stay and help you realize your dream. I lied to myself that I didn't go to Nepal because I loved you too much and couldn't face any bad news. But it's not, it's not... Actually, at that time, in my heart, I had already... I had given up on you. I thought you were no longer in this world ..."
I raised my head and looked at Chu Yubai with tears in my eyes: "So, Chu Yubai, you see, Bai Mingxue is the one who loves you the most in this world, I am not... I am not worthy of your love..."
"Moli!" He called my full name solemnly, "Su Moli, no matter whether you love me or not, whether you are the person who loves me the most in this world, I only know that in this world, you are the person I love the most..."
He looked at me with burning eyes and said, "So, Su Moli, please seriously consider whether you want to go to the United States with me, okay?"
He looked at me with such hope in his eyes, how could I bear not to agree?
"Okay..." I nodded slightly in a drunken state, and then my consciousness became blurry.
Chu Yubai and Bai Mingxue went back to visit their grandmother, and I stayed in City C, caught in endless entanglement. Even I found it strange, what was there to be entangled and hesitant about?
The person I have been waiting for has finally come back. I should be cheering and jumping for joy, but why am I confused and hesitant? It's as if there are two villains in my heart playing tug-of-war, evenly matched, and it's hard to tell who will win.
It was not until I involuntarily opened my wallet and saw the expired movie ticket that two words appeared clearly in my mind: Xu Jue. I was shocked to realize that the reason I was so entangled was because of that cold and arrogant Xu Jue. The person who was "tug of war" with Chu Yubai in my heart was actually Xu Jue!
I was at a loss and at a loss. That cold and aloof Xu Jue only made me feel warm occasionally; he only saved me desperately on that snowy winter night; he only stood silently with me in the darkness all night when I was lonely; he only teased me hypocritically and pointed me in the right direction when I was confused; he only lowered his proud head and loved me so humbly...
I shook my head and forced myself not to think about it anymore. I was clearly trying to prove that the boy named Xu Jue was completely incomparable to Chu Yubai in my heart, but in the end I found out that he had done so many things for me...
I began to suffer from insomnia and couldn't sleep all night. Many times I thought about Chu Yubai, but the night when Xu Jue looked at me silently, smiled brightly, and left resolutely quietly emerged in my mind.
The person I love is obviously Chu Yubai, why does that stern and proud Xu Jue invade my mind again and again without any warning?
I fell into infinite confusion and deep fear of choice, and I couldn't sleep or eat.
It was a hot afternoon. I was sitting in the study room, staring at Chu Yubai's photo and the movie ticket of "The Return of the Great Sage" for the Nth time. Someone walked quickly to my side and sat down. It was Xu Jue.
"Su-Mo-Li..." He narrowed his eyes and looked at me, looking disappointed, and said, "Isn't it just a choice? Is it really that difficult? Is it worth losing sleep for six days, not eating a single grain of rice for two days, and skipping one day of class?"
I was stunned, and my nose suddenly felt sour. Didn't he leave the school? Why did he know so much? There was only one answer. He had never left these days. He just stood in the distance, quietly paying attention to me.
"In that case, let me help you choose." He reached out and picked up the movie ticket. As his eyes slowly swept over the ticket, a heart-breaking smile appeared on his face. "What's the point of keeping an expired ticket?" As he said this, he had already made a move to tear up the movie ticket.
I subconsciously wanted to yell "No", but it was too late. With a "swish", the movie ticket was torn into two pieces. I felt as if something in my heart was torn into pieces, and it hurt a lot.
He raised his hand and the fragments flew away with the wind, leaving no trace. Then, he turned around, looked me in the face, and said seriously, "Su Moli, this time, I will help you choose Chu Yubai. But remember, it was me, Xu Jue, who didn't want you in the end, not me who lost to Chu Yubai."
He said it so coldly and unkindly, but my nose felt so sore that tears were about to fall. I already knew that he was saying one thing and thinking another, so how could I not know why he said that?
That Xu Jue who looked so proud and arrogant, that Xu Jue who valued his self-esteem more than his life, that Xu Jue who could throw his self-esteem and arrogance to the wind for me, it’s not that he didn’t love me, and it’s not that he was afraid of losing to Chu Yubai, he just... he just didn’t want to see me in such a difficult situation.
So, he took the initiative to eliminate himself and help me choose another person.
It’s not that he doesn’t love me, but because he loves me more, so he chose to leave…
But even in a heart-wrenching farewell, he chose to appear in front of me with a smile, pretending to be cold and saying those hypocritical words.
But how could I not understand that he did this just to make me feel more at ease being with Chu Yubai?
I looked up and pretended to look at the scenery outside the window. The damn sunlight was so bright that it made my tears fall. I tried my best to hold back my tears, smiled at him, and asked him incoherently, "Why is it the movie "The Return of the Great Sage"? And not some other movie?"
"Because..." He smiled nonchalantly, looking sideways at the scorching sun outside the window, "A long time ago, I watched a movie in which the heroine said, 'The man I love is a peerless hero. One day he will wear golden armor and ride on a colorful cloud to marry me.' At that time, I thought, one day, I will probably have someone I love, and by then, I will also work hard to be the 'peerless hero' in her heart..."
As he said this, the sunlight filtered through the treetops into his eyes, sparkling with light. I don't know why, but I always felt that it was the tears he was trying hard to hide. Then, my tears fell without warning, and I lowered my head so that he wouldn't see my tears.
"Su Moli." He didn't look back, his eyes fell lightly on a certain place outside the window, "Do you remember? You still owe me a wish. The certificate holder Party A Xu Jue can ask Party B Su Moli to complete one thing designated by Party A without violating the law, morality and her own will..."
"Su Moli, if I use this wish voucher now to let you stay with me, would it be against your own will?" He turned around and looked at me with a carefree smile, with real tears in his pair of black and white eyes.
My tears flowed even more violently. I shook my head gently in my heart, but I couldn't open my mouth. At that moment, I suddenly realized that in my heart I had hoped that he would use that wish voucher in a domineering and unreasonable way to keep me by his side.
Then, I heard him say, "Su Moli, now, I want to use that wish ticket."
My heart became tense and uneasy, as if even the sound of cicadas in the distance had disappeared. I could only hear his soft and low voice: "Su Moli, you have to help me realize my wish, which is to live happily with that person for the rest of my life..."
Originally, he could have asked me to stay with him, but he chose to make me and another person together, just because he didn't want to make things difficult for me.
It felt like a hammer hit my heart hard, causing me so much pain that my heart was broken. Then, an inexplicable sense of loss slowly welled up in me.
Everything has been settled, and I don't have to worry about it anymore. I should be relaxed and happy, so why does my heart hurt so much?
"Su Moli, I have already told you my wish, and now I am returning it to you." He gently placed the well-preserved wish voucher in front of me, smiled, stood up and said, "Su Moli, please don't feel sad for me, because I, Xu Jue, never need other people's sympathy."
"Okay..." I nodded gently, curling up the corners of my mouth to show him my most beautiful smile. This aloof and arrogant man would use this seemingly indifferent way to say words of comfort. Unfortunately, I already understood his unique tenderness and thoughtfulness. He just didn't want me to feel even the slightest bit of guilt, so he said that he didn't want me in the end, so he said that he never needed other people's sympathy...
Because I understood that he hid his pain and never mentioned it, but silently cared about my feelings, so my tears burst out again.
"Silly..." He looked at me, raised his eyebrows slightly, smiled brightly in a pretentious and carefree manner, then turned around resolutely, waved his hand without looking back, and strode away.
In the blazing sun, his back looked increasingly blurred. I knew it was only because my tears were falling once again, but subconsciously, I felt inexplicably terrified, as if that lonely and desolate figure was about to melt into the scorching sun, and would never be found again...
"Xu Jue..." I ran out two steps and called his name softly.
I thought he wouldn't hear me, but he suddenly turned around and looked at me from afar, his eyes as gentle as water.
"I'm sorry," I smiled at him with tears in my eyes, "To me, you are the brightest star in the sky, and I am just a nameless grass that can be seen everywhere on the ground. Xu Jue, I am not worthy of you..."
"Okay." He looked at me intently, nodded slightly, and his eyebrows were raised, but I clearly saw the deepest loss and sadness in his eyes.
The sun was scorching and the cicadas were chirping in the distance. He turned around resolutely, but suddenly looked back and strode up to me. Before I could react, he hugged me tightly in his arms. After only a second, he let me go and left silently without looking back.
I stood there, staring blankly at his departing back. The sound of cicadas seemed to disappear suddenly, and a cold wind seemed to blow under the scorching sun. I knew that the boy named Xu Jue would never appear in my world again.
Later, whenever I stood under the scorching sun, I would always feel cold. The cold chill that slowly welled up from the depths of my heart seemed to swallow me whole. But as long as I thought about that day, he stood in the warm sunlight, nodded gently at me, with his eyebrows flying and his look as gentle as water, I would feel as if he had never left.
A long time later, I often tried to recall every tiny detail of that day. However, time is always so cruel that it inadvertently takes away the details that you thought were deeply engraved in your memory.
But I still remember, always remember, the way he hugged me at the very end as if he had used all his strength.
I still remember him saying, "Su Moli, you have to help me realize my wish, which is to live happily with that person for the rest of my life..."
Memories are like the sea, and time passes like a dream.
You never left.
