C8 This Is Fate
Shu Wei leaned against the bed and lazily organized her notes and notebooks. From time to time, she would take out a book. The flower petals or maple leaves in it would fall out as well. Shu Lin sat beside her. From time to time, she would touch her forehead to see if she still had a fever. On the night of the end of the college entrance exam, Shu Wei had a high fever and she had been ill for more than ten days. Including the evaluation of her score and the application of her aspiration, it was her elder sister and father who helped to fix it. She was sent to school. The series of entertainment activities that he had arranged had been completely ruined by this nameless fever. As the time to distribute the points got closer, everyone lost the mood to play. When Shu Wei's condition was getting better, They could only stay at home bored.
She was very nervous. Her first choice was to go to Beijing University, but according to the news that her sister found on the Internet day after day, she deeply felt that this time, it might be a little uncertain. Shu Wei was not willing to think too much. She had always had a very good estimate of her results. If it was really that line, then it was indeed impossible for her to have a higher score here. So she was not willing to think about it.
"Why are there so many flower petals? Look, they all fell out!" Shu Lin accompanied her by the side. She picked up a piece from the mat and helped her pick it up.
"I skipped class and went to the garden to pick them. Xiaoya and the others slipped out of the sports class. We rode our bicycles and rode very fast on the road. When we got there, we used one as bait to lure the grandpa who was watching the garden away. We could pick it with force. In the end, we were chased around by the old man. "When we get back, we'll split the spoils." Shu Wei flipped it over herself and laughed out loud to entertain herself.
Shu Lin sat beside her and flipped through the books one by one.
"Don't look!" Shu Wei took the books with a serious expression and arranged them properly. She carefully placed it in a big box that could be locked. "Baby, stay inside. I won't look at you guys anymore in the future!" Shu Wei muttered to herself as she placed it in the box. She also placed the big printed copy in the box.
"Xiao Lin, should we go to class?" Mama came into the house and handed Shu Wei a bottle of frozen fruit juice. She touched her forehead with her hand again. "I'm finally back. It scared Mama." As she spoke, she hugged Shu Wei tenderly and rubbed for a long time.
Shu Lin stood up and smiled. She turned around and went to the other room to get the book.
"It's hot outside, wear a hat!" Her mother said to Shu Lin as she walked out of the room. She lovingly touched Shu Wei's hand, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
Shu Wei smiled coquettishly, "Do you want to eat Mimi? Hehe!" She took the big locked box over, "Mom, put it in the study room for me!"
What is this? "
"I've put away all the junk from high school. " Where did I put that volunteer book last time? Let me take a look at it again. " I was sick and confused two days ago! "
Mom lovingly scratched her nose." Even if I was confused, I wouldn't fail. Little Lin, let her 'take a look' at the book your sister signed up for. "
As she replied, her sister put on a dress and came in with a bag on her back. She handed the book to her. She took the empty bottle from Shu Wei's hand and put her phone on the bed.
"Go quickly. Be careful on the road!" Mama reminded and watched Shu Lin leave the house.
"Where is sister going to tutor?" Shu Wei asked as she flipped through the books.
"I heard she asked your school to teach her a teacher. It should be Mr Lu who tutor her English. She's taking the specialized transfer exam! You can help her if you have nothing to do." His mother answered unintentionally and stood at the side to tidy up Shu Wei's clothes.
When Shu Wei heard this, she pulled her mother over and reminded seriously, "Mom, be careful in the future. In front of big sister, don't spoil me too much. " Why didn't you bring her a glass of fruit juice just now? Not to mention asking me to help her with her tutoring. Elder sister is a very prideful person! "
"Haven't you been ill recently? Yo, little girl, you know Little Lin so well. Alright, got it." At this moment, a notification sounded from the phone on the pillow. The two of them turned to look." Little Lin forgot about this phone! " Just as their mother was about to take it over, Shu Wei snatched it over. "Mom, if the university recorded me next month, it would be time to buy a phone for me, right?"
"Got it!" She got up. "I have to go to the office and take a look around. You lie down and make delicious food for you tonight!" After she finished speaking, she quietly pulled the door open and went out. Shu Wei leaned there and her heart was beating wildly.
Suddenly, she recalled the scene she saw in the hospital and felt somewhat inexplicable. She lit up the screen at the same time.
It read: There is a message from Lu Chun. Shu Wei's fingers did not listen to her commands. Her strong curiosity made her tap it open. There were only a few sentences on it. "I won't be tutoring you for this week. They were about to get married and were recently cleaning up the new house. "I'll contact you again. "It's too hot in the day. Pay attention to your health!"
Shu Wei's heart skipped a beat when she saw this information. She did not know where this inexplicable sourness came from and why it was born. Lu Chun was going to get married. It was a sudden news. She had never even cared about or asked about his girlfriend. Or rather, she had never thought of caring about Lu Chun's private matters.
She jumped out of bed and deleted the message on her phone. She ran to her sister's room and put her phone back on the desk. A piece of paper was pressed under the lamp. Shu Wei took it out. It was a poem. The handwriting of the black pen was a little messy, but it was Shu Lin's handwriting.
"Maybe.
Maybe I don't have the chance to confess to you.
When you never loved me, I still loved you.
Perhaps the seeds I've kept will never germinate.
So...
So I turned this poem into a tree that won't rot.
I buried it deep in my heart.
When I think of you,
My heart aches when I think of you.
I know you've forgotten me.
That's why you left me behind.
I really don't want to think about it.
You've already forgotten about me.
I want to believe it.
When you walk out of that little street,
When you sing a song
When you read the poem I wrote...
In a heartbeat.
Remember me.
Thank you for your silence.
Thank you for your sincere and intelligent silence.
What makes me happy is that...
You live in my field of vision.
What makes me sad is that you live in my field of vision.
The distance between us is so far.
What can stop us?
But it can't stop the moonlight in my heart.
Every time the night comes,
It will hang in front of your window.
Do you see it?
Shu Wei felt a little suffocated.
"Lu Chun." She repeated the two words and suddenly thought, "Then where is the moon in his heart?
While she was in a daze, she heard the sound of keys being unlocked. She hurriedly put the paper back in place and ran back to the bed to lie down.
"Why did you come back so quickly?" Shu Wei saw her sister coming from the living room and started to speak in a panic.
"I'm not going to make up for this!" Shu Lin was a little listless. She did not say much and turned to her own room. Shu Wei got out of bed and stood by the door of her sister's room. She was looking at her phone.
Shu Wei concealed a smile. "Then you can play with me!"
Shu Lin put down her phone and unhappily sat on the chair. She conveniently put the paper into the book. "Maybe he has a heatstroke and wants to sleep for a while! Wei, let's go out together after dinner! " The elder sister obviously did not want to talk much and held her head with one hand.
Oh, okay then! " Shu Wei stepped back and closed the door. She stood with her back to the door for a long time and heard the sound of the radio from inside the house. It was a sad love song. It was just that in such a hot summer season, Shu Wei's heart was inexplicably conflicted. She suddenly did not understand her own thoughts. Or rather, she felt that this scene seemed to have skipped sixty-four checkpoints all of a sudden. It was a little rushed and sudden.
There were two people in the house, a pair of sisters only separated by a door, but they had never been so quiet before.
Shu Wei had never been so quiet before. Shu Wei was somewhat stifled by this kind of pressure. She changed her clothes and walked out of the door. She wandered aimlessly under the sun.
The trees on both sides of the road were dark. It was not big, and there were very few cars passing by. Nancheng was really not crowded during the summer. For the first time, she felt that she had thought of ways to escape and wander around. Now, she was bored and monotonous. It was like reading a novel on the bed before the exam. It became meaningless. She did not understand. What was going on?
Just as Shu Wei walked to the traffic light, an intercity bus came from the west and stopped in front of her. She looked up in boredom and just happened to see Lu Chun in the car window. He was holding a big pillow with his head tilted to light a cigarette.
Before Shu Wei wanted to check again, the red light had changed color and the bus started to move slowly. She did not have time to think and subconsciously ran after him. Her throat was dry and she could not make a sound.
The bus gradually sped up until she could no longer catch her breath. Then, it stopped with her hands on her waist and squatted down to catch her breath.
Not far away, the bus stopped and a person came down. Shu Wei looked up breathlessly and saw that person jump out of the car door and stand at the mouth looking at her.
She got up and was a little surprised.
"Shu Wei!" He ran over and the sound came first.
"Oh, Jiang - Chenghui, Jiang Chenghui!" She called out again with certainty and smiled embarrassedly.
"This time, I actually saw you chasing a car. Are you practicing running? Such weather?" He asked her in a serious tone. He frowned and looked up at the blazing sun.
"No, hehe, I saw you and wanted to call you!" Shu Wei subconsciously tried to smooth things over for her unnatural actions. Chenghui was a little surprised when he heard such an explanation. "How did you do in the exam?"
"Not bad!" Shu Wei was a little embarrassed. By the way, why did you get out of the car all of a sudden?
"I saw you chasing and running!" His answer was very neat. Before she could finish her sentence, he had already given her an answer, as if he already knew what she would say.
"I didn't see what I should have seen!" She muttered softly and turned to walk to the side of the road. "Jiang Chenghui, I just wanted to say hello. Nothing happened." Shu Wei turned around to look at him in a daze. She found it funny when she said those words.
Chenghui did not smile. He just looked at her carefully.
She was a little unnatural being looked at by such a gaze.
"Where are you going?" Shu Wei quickly changed the topic and asked Jiang Chenghui, "Where are you going? "I'm going to the mall over there. The air is cold inside. Oh right, please drink cold and make up for what you did last time. "
Chenghui looked at her expression of not understanding the meaning of her words and did not comment. "Okay!"
Maybe Jiang Chenghui's calm tone made her feel comfortable. She did not just meet him by chance. However, she did not want to find out anything about him, which made Chenghui somewhat unable to understand her.
Shu Wei bought two bottles of milk tea from the counter and paid for them. Chenghui took out a piece of paper from a nearby drawing paper and wiped the edge of the table first before letting her sit. This made Shu Wei, who was a little careless, feel embarrassed.
"Is your sister better?"
"Much better. Thank you!" Shu Wei smiled gratefully at him. "Her body has always been weak. I am different. I rarely get sick." He could tell that Shu Wei deliberately avoided the awkward topic about his older sister. Her eyes suddenly seemed to see something as she stared at the back of his head.
"What is it?" He immediately turned his head.
"Look!" Shu Wei used her mouth to look in that direction. At the ATM not far away, a woman was holding a child and waiting to withdraw the money. The person behind her had half a bent arm, clothes, and his other hand seemed to be searching for something.
Very quickly, the woman carried the child to the ATM and inserted the card in her hand into it. The person behind suddenly turned around and walked slowly and did not continue to wait.
"Where is my wallet?" She was obviously waiting for the machine to react. She wanted to look for her wallet to store the money, but she nervously hugged the child and shouted. She looked around in panic. The person's footsteps immediately sped up.
"Sit here and don't move!" Chenghui took out his phone and walked in that direction. The man was obviously a little guilty. The wallet in his pocket was rubbed by his quick steps, revealing his pink hair. He did not notice it. He looked around and used his remaining light to look at the surveillance camera of the mall.
Chenghui walked over quickly as if he was talking on a phone. He quickly pulled a shopping cart from beside him and pushed it in the direction of the man. It pressed one of his feet.
"What are you doing?" the man asked. The man was shocked. He bent down in anger.
"I'm sorry!" Chenghui seemed to be in a panic. He pushed the man forward again. The man fell to the ground. His wallet was pushed out of his pocket and rolled on the floor.
The woman who was in a daze saw her wallet. She quickly ran over with the child in her arms. She shouted, "Thief!"
She could no longer pretend to be a thief. When she heard that, she immediately stood up and kicked the car towards the door. Chenghui picked up the wallet on the ground and did not even look at him. He waited for the woman to give it to him.
"Look, what are you missing?" As he spoke, he reached out his arm and carried the child to him. This was the first time Shu Wei saw Jiang Chenghui smile so gently. The corner of his mouth was like ripples on the lake water, bringing with it the warmth of being immersed in sunlight. The tall and straight nose bridge was gently grabbed by the child's tender little hands, but he did not seem to mind. He raised his mouth to play with him even more happily. Shu Wei took Chenghui's milk tea and walked over.
"Thank you, thank you so much!" She tapped on the documents and the small amount of notes inside and rearranged her bag.
"It's easy to be targeted by thieves when carrying a child. Be more careful!" Chenghui carried the child back to her.
"Hey, it is still stuck inside!" A man at the ATM pulled out the card and shouted, "Why can't I take it out?"
Shu Wei had just walked to Chenghui's side when she heard this. The two of them looked at each other for some reason and followed the woman carrying the child to the other side.
The woman also went over and tried for a long time but was unable to pull it out. It was as if she was stuck at the moment.
Chenghui stood at the side. The image on the screen was no longer moving. The lights in the slot flashed, and the card couldn't move. He looked closer and pressed a few keys quickly. Then, he picked up something that looked like a key button and dug it out. Then, he moved the card and the keyboard at the same time. He tightened his hand and exerted a little strength. The card came out. Then, he took out a card from his wallet and inserted it into it to test it. Only then did the program system return to normal.
"You're so amazing!" Shu Wei couldn't help but praise Chenghui as he walked over and handed him the cup of milk tea.
"I just don't understand. Is there something wrong with that thief's IQ? Why did he steal someone's wallet at the place where he took the money? If he has money, does he still need to take it?" He took a sip and pondered for a long time. When he turned his head back, it was as if he suddenly thought of something: "But if you can't take out your card, you can't pull it out with all your strength!"
"Then should I press it and press it?" Shu Wei teased him and imitated his actions just now.
"Please don't! I only know a little about the principle. If there is a big problem, "My method is useless." His tone was still calm and serious. Especially when he said the words "absolutely not," his eyes revealed some child-like stubbornness.
"Then what if my card can't come out? Should I call you? And then you press it like a magic trick?" Shu Wei looked at his serious expression and wanted to laugh.
"Then I have to call the bank's service number!" He saw the smile in Shu Wei's eyes. "Are you joking with me?"
"Haha, not at all!" Shu Wei talked to him as she walked and saw the thief squatting in the security room.
"Huh? Why is he squatting there?" Shu Wei was a little excited.
Wait for the police to come over! " Chenghui looked at Shu Wei's surprised and excited expression and smiled. He felt that the smile of this girl in front of him was always very pure. She was even so pure in anger, melancholy, and happiness. But she was very sensitive to other people's thoughts.
"Oh, I was wondering why you just picked up your phone and listened to the phone! Did you see the security service number on the desk?" She looked at him appreciatively. "You're so smart. I said you don't even care about the thief who ran away!"
"Do you think he wanted to steal his phone but found his wallet and took it?" Chenghui spread his hands and took a deep breath. He looked at Shu with interest and smiled. "I'm bored too."
"So honest!" Shu Wei giggled. She saw that he always looked serious and insisted on putting things in a tight logical manner. Shu Wei tilted her head and laughed again. "By the way, do you like children very much?"
"Why?" Chenghui did not understand.
"I saw you holding the baby well." Shu Wei seemed to have realized something and quickly changed her words, "It's more like it. Many boys were holding the child in an ugly manner. The child was like being tortured on the boys. You can still play with the children!"
No way! " Chenghui was a little embarrassed.
"By the way," Wang Yao said. What are you doing here today? It's getting late. " I didn't delay you, did I? " Shu Wei stopped smiling. She looked up at the sunlight that had eased up a lot. The sky was red. It was like a burning cloud.
"I'm just helping your school make a database. I just logged in today. What, you should go back now?"
"Yes, it's about time, but..." Shu Wei looked at the few pieces of money in her pocket, "I want to go to Xijing. If you are willing, I will treat you to the sour and spicy cold powder over there!" Shu Wei happily asked him.
"Okay!" He answered crisply and happily followed Shu Wei to the west.
At this time, the heat had receded slightly. The further west they went, the more they felt the breeze. "Have you been in Nancheng since you were young?"
"Yes, have you been here before? When I was young, my sister and I liked to run to the west. There was a small stall selling cold powder at the entrance of the street. It was very authentic. Moreover, there was a stone street by the lake. There would be many snack stalls in the evening. They would be sold until the next morning. Sister is afraid of getting pimples on her face and not eating spicy food, and I have always been her foil. So she kept eating. Anyway, it didn't matter if she had a few more pimples. It's more conspicuous! " Shu Wei remembered and her face was full of boastful boasting. She pursed her lips," Ever since I was in the third year of high school, Every time I came out, I would secretly dig it out!" Shu Wei's happy expression was like a flower print on a paper. It had already appeared and even slipped a little. She turned to look at him. "But that chili is more spicy. I wonder if you will cry from the spiciness?"
"Then I will still confess to you. I am afraid of spiciness!" Chenghui took a deep breath. Seeing her cool face, he felt a kind of sweetness in his heart. "Which university did you enroll in? If you were in Huailin, wouldn't you be very close to home?"
"En..." Shu Wei stopped for a moment, "I enroll in Beijing University. I might be able to find out the results tonight!" Thinking of this, the joy in her heart lessened a little. She looked a little melancholic. "However, I don't know if I'll be able to get into the exam or not, but I got a bit too bold!"
"Oh. Then why did you apply to Beijing University?"
"It's nothing more than a wish. It's also considered a promise!" Shu Wei suddenly thought of Lu Chun and the joke they had made. She did not continue. She looked up and saw the stall. She ran over. "Grandma, two servings of cold powder!" She thought about it and asked one serving to reduce the amount of chili.
Chenghui also followed her. He wanted to pay, but he saw Shu Wei take out small rolls from her pocket and put them all into the old man's hands. He did not want to argue, so he took one serving and took two pairs of chopsticks.
"Go this way!" Shu Wei led the way while carrying a sanitary box. "She doesn't have a stool over there. Let's sit here!" She walked to the door of an old temple, nodded and blew on the stone steps with all her strength, and was about to sit down.
"Wait!" Chenghui quickly took out a tissue from his pocket and helped her put it there. "Aren't you afraid of the cold?"
"It's okay!" Shu smiled. She sat down and took a bite. She opened her mouth and took a deep breath.
"You're a girl. It's better to be more comfortable!" Chenghui sat next to her and looked at the lake. The sun was shining on the surface of the lake. The sky was dyed red by the sunset. It was like a girl's face. It was red and oily. It was shy and gentle.
"It looks good, right?" Shu Wei ate more than half and her face was red from the spiciness.
"Yes!" Chenghui was also very spicy. He did not want to show off in front of her. His face turned red. "I did not expect this place to be so refreshing!"
"Of course!" Shu Wei took a deep breath and looked at the lake. "I've been sitting here since I was young to eat cold powder. When I came here, I felt very quiet. Many things can be easily remembered and many things can be placed properly."
"Let me ask you a question!" Chenghui put the box next to him and looked at the lake. "What is your brain thinking now?"
"Hmm?" Shu Wei looked back in surprise and saw Chenghui's clear eyes. She dodged and quickly turned her head. "Read you a poem!" She let out a sigh of relief. He said, "When I think of you, my heart aches. I know you have forgotten about me. That's why you left me behind. I really don't want to think that you've forgotten me. I really want to believe it. When you walk out of that small street, When you sing a song, when you read the poem I wrote, You will remember me in your heart, thank you for your silence. Thank you for your sincere and smart silence... Shu Wei stopped and thought for a while. She smiled, "I forgot about the rest."
"I think I heard..." Chenghui nodded.
"This is a poem written by my sister." Shu Wei cut him off. "But I forgot what's behind it. I looked back and forth a few times and I remember this!" Shu Wei sighed. "This was not written by me to others. I know who older sister wrote it to. I just..."
"This is the first time I saw Shu Wei looking a little melancholic!" Chenghui did not pursue the matter further.
"It's getting late." Shu Wei stood up and picked up her and Chenghui's fast food boxes. "I have to go back. Hurry up and catch the bus!" As she spoke, she quickly walked two steps and threw the box to the garbage bin beside her. Thinking of something, she suddenly turned her head and looked at Chenghui. "I'm very happy to meet you today. Oh right, What's your cell number?
He was caught off guard by this series of rapid changes. When he heard this, he quickly got up and took out a notebook and pen from his bag. He wrote down a number and handed it to Chenghui.
"Oh!" Shu Wei looked at it and folded it into her palm. "When I have a phone, I will send you a text message!" She waved her hand at him and quickly ran away.
To Chenghui, this was an unexpected evening. This kind of accident, the few accidents that this girl named Shu Wei had brought him, clearly made him feel a kind of attraction. This kind of attraction had too many unimaginable and rich sweetness.
Was this fate?
He was inexplicably happy and expectant.
Shu Wei, who was running home, did not recall the few times she met Chenghui. She was just surprised that she could recite more than half of the poem that she had read a few times while sitting on the stairs and eating cold powder.
She suddenly understood that she was chasing Lu Chun in the car and seemed to only want to tell him this poem. She thought that Shu Lin would not let him read this poem. But why did she do that? Help her sister tell him?
It was just that Shu Wei used too many memory methods and concluded one sentence: When dealing with understanding and emotional content, she had a faster and more shocking memory ability than usual. When she thought of this, she could not help but shake her head and began to hum on her own.
She thought that she was still young and didn't understand many things.
