Chapter 36 Rusty
Old things are always forgotten and then become rusty in place.
When you look back, it no longer feels sad and happy for you, but you say it has changed.
Fang Baoyi's appearance came very cleverly. Just after Lin Wangyuan left South China with Yujie, his heart was extremely fragile at that time.
Over the years, he has been obsessed with his career. He has almost given up all his social circles and has not many suitable female friends around him. In fact, there is another big reason for him to do this, which is to make it clear that the girl has always been his knot in his heart.
In this alumni reunion at Nanhua University, he and Wen Buhui did not communicate much, but just a few words made him finally untied his heart.
All the past is returned to the past. The green plums withered and the bamboo horses are no longer there. What has been lost is the luxury of never going back. And he may also look forward, after all, after seeing through, he can see the flowers and plants around him. Fang Baoyi is such a flower.
It was the first time that Lin Wangyuan met her in the first time. Deep down in his heart, he also gave a strange label.
It's like a wild horse, full of wild energy that is hard to tame.
It's like a demon cat, exuding a breathtaking charm.
She is a flower bud, which seems to be tempting, but has spikes everywhere. This is the smell that only mature women can emit. It can quietly flirt with a man's heart, but it threatens the man's life all the time.
What shocked Lin Wangyuan the most was not just her appearance and temperament, but also her shadow of Han Juan could be seen in her words and deeds.
Han Juan, that was the girl she had let down and the deepest hurt. The tears she had when she parted is still soaked in his heart. For so many years, he has never been able to let go of that incident, but he never expected that today he would meet a girl who looked so much like her.
Just as beautiful, just as eye-catching.
Same boldness, same pursuit of love.
Han Juan confessed to her so directly back then. The persistent pursuit of love between them was difficult for many girls to say.
In a sense, Fang Baoyi is another copy of Han Juan, but with the growth of age, she has to become more mature. Or from another perspective, Lin Wangyuan has not seen Han Juan for six or seven years. Maybe now, she is not sure if she loses her innocence and immaturity like Fang Baoyi.
Just like that, everything was so natural that they became friends like this and even made an appointment to have coffee together.
Han Yaochan and Luo Ling on the side both expressed their shock and could not speak. This kind of operation was beyond their understanding. The two of them clearly met for the first time, so how could their relationship heat up sharply? They even left the three of them aside and went on a date by themselves?
However, Liu Zixin spread her hands helplessly, "This girl has always liked Lin Wangyuan!"
"Ah? It's true, why haven't I heard you say it!" Luo Ling asked in surprise.
"Of course it's true, actually I didn't know it before!" Liu Zixin shook her head and smiled bitterly, "It was still when she graduated, she suddenly applied for a job in Shenguang's company. After repeated questions, I realized that it was because she left to follow Lin Wangyuan's footsteps!"
As the saying goes, the moon is the first to get close to the water. Fang Baoyi at that time probably chose a completely unfamiliar city because of this reason.
However, in legend, the scene of a woman chasing a man and a layer of yarn did not appear, and Lin Wangyuan did not even look at her. But in five years, she witnessed the growth of a ignorant boy with her own eyes, which made her increasingly obsessed with this boy.
This time, she followed Liu Zixin and Luo Ling to travel to Tiancheng. Her purpose was to see Lin Wangyuan's hometown.
Originally, she thought that in this life, she could only watch the boy through the traffic lights. But who would have thought that the turning point of fate would come so quietly. The sudden encounter, coupled with unprecedented courage, finally made her make a bold decision.
"Do you think Fang Baoyi's personality looks a bit like Han Juan?" Han Yaochan murmured with a frown.
Luo Ling and Liu Zixin on the side were shocked. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this was true. Unable to help, a feeling of worry appeared in their hearts. They thought that Lin Wangyuan accepted Fang Baoyi as a good thing, but now it seems that things are not that simple.
......
In an ordinary cafe, Lin Wangyuan and Fang Baoyi sat opposite each other and chatted and laughed.
He didn't know why he accepted the invitation, but now that things have come to this, there is no need to consider right or wrong. In general, he still felt very comfortable with the girl in front of him, at least without the pressure brought by strangeness.
"Do you think I look a little like her?" Fang Baoyi stopped smiling and suddenly asked.
Lin Wangyuan was stunned, then smiled, but nodded without answering.
"Actually, I noticed you in the freshman welcome party... You look so handsome when you play guitar!" Fang Baoyi said lightly, "Later you were together, I looked at her from afar... I began to envy her, and later, I realized that I was becoming more and more like her!"
"No, you are not her after all... you are just a bit similar, there is no need to regard yourself as her substitute!" Lin Wangyuan smiled slightly.
A hint of joy appeared in Fang Baoyi's eyes, but then he covered it up again.
"Do you know? After graduation, I have been following your footsteps!" Fang Baoyi complained helplessly, "From South China to Shenguang, unfortunately, the resume submitted to Yakang did not receive a response... Later, the job I applied for was around Yakang, and the houses I rented were next to your red house!"
Lin Wangyuan’s red house was a single house he rented in Shenzhen. Although the area is not large, it is two bedrooms, two living rooms, one kitchen and one bathroom, which is completely enough for him to live alone.
"Hmm..." For a moment, he didn't know how to answer this girl.
"Every morning, I would guard the window a few minutes in advance, watching you come out of the red house, then pass by the traffic lights and walk towards the Yakang building!" Fang Baoyi smiled in a daze, "I thought the intersection was limited to my vision of you, but I didn't expect that we could also sit here face to face to drink coffee!"
"Haha, thank you for your fate. I haven't returned to Tiancheng for two or three years. If it weren't for the college party, we wouldn't have the chance to meet today!" Lin Wangyuan shrugged.
"So, can we meet again in the future? Do you know what I mean!" Fang Baoyi looked at Lin Wangyuan's eyes and said firmly, "It's not just here, but that completely unfamiliar city. I also hope to sit with you and have coffee!"
