chapter 2
How long will it take for you to like someone secretly and quietly? The graduation ceremony is lively and lonely.
When Gu Lang came to see me, a group of people in our dormitory were wearing rented bachelor's uniforms, taking photos at the major "scenic spots" in the school, and posing various postures that could reflect our youthful vitality, drawing the most perfect end to the four years of college.
When Hu Dongduo was taking pictures, he stomped on the grass while muttering, grass trampling fees, elevator usage fees, campus sightseeing fees, resource utilization fees, table and chair wear fees, and teacher respect fees... Our school, the knife that was about to graduate, was so cruel that I almost burst into tears.
When Hu Dongduo paid the fee just now, she was indeed in tears, which made the department head Lao He thought that she was reluctant to part with her alma mater, and kept patting her on the shoulder to comfort her, saying earnestly: Hu Dongduo, no matter how good the ivory tower in the university is, she can only raise a family, not a geek! The iron-clad soldiers are in a row, and the world is in a banquet. You must bravely step out of the school gate! Temper in society well! Serve the society well...
Hu Dongduo may have thought that he had obtained his degree certificate and graduation certificate at that time, so he was not afraid of anyone. She said while "wiping tears" and saying, Director He, let's not talk about life for now, let's talk about the payment just now. Can you get a 60% discount? 65% discount? 70% discount? 80% discount? 80% discount. I have no money at all, and I have to crawl back to the 290 miles of home...
Director He originally wanted to say something to Hu Dongduo to us, "The new sun will belong to you tomorrow." After Hu Dongduo said this, he forced himself back and his face turned red.
We were afraid that Director He, who was nicknamed "Warcraft", would be crazy, so we quickly pulled Hu Dongduo out of Director He's sight.
Hu Dongduo said, "Hey, Tianya, you have already paid for my car fare home."
I nodded and nodded, OK.
If you have friends like this, you have no choice. Life is helpless.
Hu Dongduo is a talent, an absolute talent. Every time he is on holiday, he will spend the money in his hand to the fullest amount of road fees, not a cent or a cent. Can't the computer be so accurate, right?
Hu Dongduo discovered Gu Lang's existence before me.
She pointed at Gu Lang who was standing far away under the osmanthus tree, kicked me, and said, "Oh, Tianya, Tianya, your man is here."
Go quickly!
As soon as Gu Lang appeared, the girls in the dormitory were already half crazy. They kicked me to Gu Lang with Hu Dongduo, and laughed while kicking them, saying the ambiguous words between girls, Ai Tianya, today's graduation banquet, sisters will go to help you knock him down! Let me obey you tonight, life is your person, death is your person! After so many years of ambiguousness, I am so tired of it!
So, I ran to Gu Lang with a red face and walked in a few steps.
Blush, yes, blush. For so many years, every time I see Gu Lang, my heart beats and my palms keep sweating, just like when I first saw him when I was thirteen years old.
How long will it take for you to like someone secretly and quietly?
How long will it take?
After time and space, I have changed. If I have other people around me, I will still miss you like this and never forget you like this.
Whenever someone mentions his name inadvertently, your heart will suddenly become wet and collapse, collapse without direction and breathing.
I love this man named Gu Lang for a long time.
He liked it secretly, for fear that he would smile, then leave, and leave from now on. He is no longer in my breathing, no longer in my sight.
Because I am afraid of losing, I dare not confess my love.
I am really uncomfortable with being unfair.
I walked up to Gu Lang, put the bachelor's hat in his hand, blinked and smiled, looked up, looked up at his beautiful and delicate eyebrows, pursed his lips, and said, I didn't expect you to come.
Gu Lang looked at my face slightly red due to shyness, and was stunned for a moment, then smiled, with a particularly gentle look, unlike the indifference he used to be, which was intimidating. Because of his rare gentle smile in a century, the fragrance of osmanthus in the air suddenly grew.
He smiled and said, "Graduation Ceremony, how could I not come for such a major event?" After that, he raised his hand and gently rubbed my messy hair, so gentle, he said, "Do you have time at noon? Please give me a meal."
I was stunned at first, rolled my eyes and stared at the gentle hand on my head, thinking to myself, Gu Lang, the cold-faced man, didn’t he take rat poison today? How could he be as gentle as becoming an immortal?
I nodded in panic first, then shook my head quickly, and said in disappointment that I didn’t seem to have time to have a graduation dinner tonight…
Gu Lang shrugged and suddenly realized that I was just going to tell you if I had something to do, and forgot that you had the last party. Speaking of this, he looked at me with a deep look, wanting to speak but stopping.
My heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he said he wanted to tell me something, what is it? Given his abnormal gentleness today, it should be: Ai Tianya, you have finally graduated. In fact, over the years, I found that you are pretty good. Be my girlfriend! Or: Ai Tianya, marry me! I will keep you in a golden nest, so you don’t have to work!
Ah hahaha, don’t happiness come so suddenly, okay? People won’t accept it.
How should I respond to him?
I should be more pretentious and shyly said, No! My mother said, girls cannot agree to boys' requests casually! They should be more reserved and say slowly, Oh, right? I think I am too young and not suitable for love, but I will still consider it. Or just be an honest good girl, sparks splashing and rushing over with enthusiasm, wow, you kid finally got it, I'm waiting to die!
I woke up from my fantasy, looked up at him, and smiled sweetly. I said, "You have something to tell me?" Then let me talk about it here.
Here? Gu Lang looked at me, his eyes became more and more distressed. At this time, Hu Dongduo and the other group of madmen who took photos were probably enough, and began to shout rhythmically - Gu Langai Tianya.
Gu Langai Tianya. Gu Langai Tianya.
All the crazy people know that they are playing clever and shouting: Gu Lang loves the world.
My face was flushed, and I turned around and stared at them like a sharp sword. They saw my sharp eyes, stuck out their tongues, shook the camera and made a victory gesture, as if some conspiracy had succeeded, especially Hu Dongduo, who was smiling so grey and completely forgot that he had just been slaughtered by the school.
I looked at Gu Lang carefully and explained, don't mind, they... just like pranks.
Gu Lang smiled, his nose bridge was high and the corners of his lips were slightly curled up, and he said, "It's pretty good, just call us our names."
I looked at the corners of his beautiful lips and my heart softened slightly. He was worried that I was embarrassed. What a kind man, haha. At this moment, I suddenly remembered something and asked carefully, Gu Lang, you just said, tell me something...what is it?
Gu Lang gently put the bachelor's hat back on my head, his voice calmly, saying, Tianya, I'm going to get married.
ah.
I looked up at him, but I couldn't come back to my senses for a moment. My mouth was quietly opened. After a while, I laughed and said, "What a great thing, a great joy, congratulations!"
Gu Lang looked at me, and a trace of compassion flashed in his eyes, but I couldn't see anything. I could only grin and smile, and my teeth shone brightly.
On campus that day, on graduation day, the campus was so beautiful. There were so many bright smiles. The asphalt roads on campus were slightly wet, and the boys' bicycles passed by lightly, and the girls on the back of the bicycles were quietly leaning against their backs. Are they listening to the sound of their heartbeats?
But why, I can't hear anything?
The only thing I could hear was Hu Dongduo and the others calling out like a prank - Gu Langai Tianya, Gu Langai Tianya, Gu Langai Tianya.
One sound is louder and another echoes on the campus on the eve of graduation.
I have never been able to return to God.
Many years later, Hu Dongduo gave me a photo, which was taken secretly on her graduation ceremony: Under the osmanthus tree, a beautiful man in clean clothes, with a gentle expression on his eyes, looking at the girl with joy standing in front of him.
Hu Dongduo said that many people have seen this photo. Everyone said that with just one look, you can see that the man and the woman in the photo are in love. Everyone also asked, was he and her together later?
Later, was he and her together?
Later, were all the "he and her" who had fallen in love together?
That day, after Gu Lang left, I didn't cry. Instead, I laughed so hard that I joined Hu Dongduo and the others enthusiastically, taking photos, laughing loudly while taking photos. We took photos and left our most arrogant smile in this place where we had four years of youth.
The grove on campus is a paradise for lovers. I remember one time, during the final exam, Hu Dongduo ran into the grove to review, but found a used condom. Then she was deeply excited and felt that she had been defiled, and then she felt that the whole school had been defiled... Later, she felt inexplicably excited, ran back to the dormitory, and took us and a group of people to pay attention to the thing. At that time, we, those righteous freshmen, pretended to be cold and contempt, while being humble. In fact, I haven't sorted out clearly yet, what are we excited about. Oh, maybe it was the first time we touched the forbidden area topic of youth.
On the night of the meal, I was drunk, but I still smiled brightly. Then, Hu Dongduo carried me away for a long time. In the end, she was so tired that she simply pulled me away, like a doll. When she pulled me back to school, I had already turned into a rag doll.
She also wanted to take a taxi, but unfortunately, there was no RMB; she had turned over my pocket, but there was only a silver chain in my pocket, with a bird-like pendant hanging on it.
This silver chain was bought by Gu Lang on my last day of thirteen years old, and now it is covered in dust.
From thirteen to twenty-two. It took almost ten years, it turns out that I have liked you for so long!
The moment the tears fell, my throat felt as painful as it was cut.
