DIARY Eleven Compared to those gifts 1
Thursday, August 11th, cloudy
Compared to happy things,
I prefer you to wipe my tears;
Compared to an umbrella,
I long more to hide from the rain with you;
Rather than words of comfort,
I need a warm hug more;
Compared to those gifts,
In fact, I enjoy the time with you more.
I underwent the surgery with peace of mind.
The concern of my father and Chen, Xiaoying's strength, and the desire to hear the answer from Yuan Cheye in person, all encouraged me. Fortunately, the operation was successful and my ear disease was finally cured. The chance of recurrence in the future is only 2%.
But I don't know if Yuan Cheye deliberately wanted to avoid telling me the answer to that question, because he hasn't shown up since the operation. When I called him, he always changed the subject, saying that the school organized a unified remedial class for the summer vacation, and he would help me take notes, and then hung up the phone in a hurry.
But I was a little surprised that he actually called me today.
"Hey, idiot! Let's go out and have fun tonight."
"I'm busy." I said deliberately because I was dissatisfied with his coldness during this period.
"Oh, so, bye then..."
"Hey, hey, Yuan Cheye, you bastard..."
"Haha, are you angry, idiot? Today is the day you are discharged from the hospital, be happy! How about this, I will pick you up in the evening and take you to a place. I have already asked your father for permission, so we can play until late, hahaha."
"Well." I hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Have you finally decided to tell me the answer to that question?"
silence……
After the silence, there was the sound of "beep, beep" and the call was hung up.
Depressed! What on earth is this guy running away from? He clearly made an appointment with me...
At night, the moon is bright.
There were a lot of people on the street. I glanced at the couple holding hands next to me, and then looked at Yuan Cheye who was walking in front of me with his hands in his pockets. He was such a guy who never understood romance!
If I had known that following him for three blocks would lead to no result, I might as well have gone to the celebration party that Chen prepared for me and had a big meal !
"arrive."
Just as I was daydreaming, Yuan Cheye in front of me suddenly stopped, and I couldn't stop in time and bumped into his back.
"Is this the place you're talking about?" I looked ahead curiously. Many fiery red lights were blooming along the gallery on the roadside. Each one was poetic and picturesque, and very beautiful.
"What day is today..." I ran to the nearest lantern to read the words written on it, "Destined to meet each other even though we are thousands of miles apart? Could it be... Chinese Valentine's Day?"
He didn't need to answer at all, as what I saw was enough to prove it. Almost all the men and women around were in pairs, and each pair held a very beautiful lantern of different styles.
Yuan Cheye actually took me to see the Chinese Valentine's Day Lantern Festival. Does this mean that in his heart, we are already a couple, so he wants to spend this special holiday with me?
I turned my head sweetly and looked at Yuan Cheye's clean smile and shining eyes under the lights. No wonder he had been unwilling to answer my question all along, it turned out that he was waiting for a romantic opportunity.
"Hey, why did you bring me to the Lantern Festival? Is it because..."
I gave him a small shy smile and nudged him lightly with my arm.
"I said it was to celebrate your discharge from the hospital."
Although Yuan Cheye was trying to hide it without leaving any trace, I felt happy when I saw his warm and brilliant smile. This happiness came in waves, and I was caught off guard by it and my whole throbbing heart was occupied by it.
Yuan Cheye and I bought two lanterns, one for each of us, and then wrote a wish on it.
"Hey, what did you write? Is it the answer to that question?"
I wanted to secretly go and see what Yuan Cheye wrote, but he found out.
"What did you write again?"
"Show it to me first."
"No, show it to me first."
I thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll give it to you."
Fortunately, it was night, so Yuan Cheye didn't see my blushing face. When I handed him the lantern, my heart was beating irregularly.
"Together forever, hahaha."
He read it out word for word and then laughed loudly.
"Why are you laughing? I showed you, show me yours."
"Okay, you can see it."
I hurriedly took it, but after looking around the lantern again and again, my fingers began to tremble with anger.
"Yuan Cheye!"
"Haha, you're fooled. I didn't write anything."
Yuan Cheye’s blooming smile was like the most beautiful rose in the world. Against the backdrop of the night, it was breathtakingly beautiful and captured my heart in an instant.
My anger immediately disappeared without a trace, and only his smile remained in my eyes. Countless lanterns lit up the dark night sky, like countless sparks twinkling.
"So beautiful!" I couldn't help but blurt out.
"What?" Yuan Cheye asked curiously.
"I won't tell you." I kept it a secret on purpose. It was his fault for playing a trick on me just now!
As soon as I finished speaking, Yuan Cheye reached out and flicked my forehead. His eyes flashed mysteriously, and his fingers were slightly cold. I was stunned by such an intimate gesture.
Yuan Cheye, do you know?
I like you so much, you are so close to me.
It seems like I can grab you as long as I stretch out my hand.
boom--
Another hit on the forehead.
"You don't want to tell me? If you don't, I'll keep playing."
"Humph! You only know how to use force." I pointed to the magnificent lights. "Look, the lights look like a still meteor shower."
In my sight, the lanterns all turned into beautiful stars in the night sky, burning hotly and beautifully... Just like the meteor shower caused by meteorites rubbing against the atmosphere, they became an eternal beauty in my eyes.
"A stationary meteor shower?"
"Well, Chen gave me a small meteorite on my last birthday. I think a meteorite falling from the sky seems to represent eternity."
"By the way, what birthday present do you want this year?"
"Birthday present? Haha, my birthday is still far away. It's winter."
"It doesn't matter. I'll take you to buy gifts today..."
"Hey Hey hey……"
Although I didn't understand why he suddenly wanted to buy me a birthday present, my heart was filled with joy. I didn't care at all and didn't think about finding out the reason.
Maybe, I knew the answer to that question in advance...
"What do you want?" Yuan Cheye took me for a stroll on the street.
"I don't know." I shook my head.
"Think about it with your stupid head."
sweat……
It was clearly a gift for me, but this attitude made it hard to understand his intentions.
We walked into a Taobao store, where there were all kinds of beautiful accessories, such as cartoon-shaped cups, kettles for watering flowers, cartoon clips for photos, and exquisite bracelets...
"Mirror, mirror, who is the most hateful person in this world?"
I picked up a miniature mirror that looked like the magic mirror in fairy tales and muttered something.
"Fool, how can it answer you?"
"Who said it wouldn't happen? Look, it's shown on it."
Yuan Cheye came closer strangely, but there was only his clean and handsome face. When he realized that he had been tricked, it was too late.
"Haha, you are the most hateful one!"
As soon as I finished speaking, I was flicked on the forehead again.
"And you still say you're not the most hateful person..." I pouted in grievance.
Humph! I will definitely give him lots and lots of gifts later to make his wallet cry!
Suddenly, my eyes were attracted by an ornament on the counter. It was a small and delicate ceramic product. An old man and a grandmother were sitting on a bench, leaning against each other with a kind smile on their faces. The old lady was fanning her husband with a cattail leaf fan.
Looking at them, the air around them became warm.
Really Want……
This is how I will grow old with Yuan Cheye.
"Okay, I want this one." I pointed at the decoration.
Yuan Cheye who was standing next to him came over and took a look: "Are you sure? There's nothing special about that. Sure enough, it was chosen by an idiot."
"……"This guy, why does he never forget to insult me?
Although Yuan Cheye said this, he still gently helped me take the jewelry off the counter. His movements were very careful, which made me chuckle. I suddenly understood Yuan Cheye a little bit. He always spoke nonchalantly, but he was actually delicate and soft-hearted.
So, does he treat me the same way?
Even if he didn't make any promises to me, but in his heart, is he as gentle and careful to me as he is to this ornament?
But then I saw his true face.
