Chapter 40 Section thirty-ninth

So, at 6 o'clock in the morning in the cold winter months, I stood on the platform of Wuxi high-speed railway station, holding the most famous sweet meat stuffed dumplings in Wuxi, which has abused countless tourists. There are only a dozen days before the Spring Festival. There are many people at the train station, and the platform is bustling. I stood on tiptoe among the crowd and looked at the direction of the train, feeling a little apprehensive. Will Lin Yusen find it strange to see me waiting for him on the platform later?I usually pick people up at the exit, but I ran to the platform. Is this too grand?

How about I run out of the station now? While I was hesitating, the train had already entered the station. The white train roared past me, and then gradually slowed down. Gradually, I could already see the passengers in the carriage through the window. I saw Lin Yusen. I don't know why I can be sure it's him at a glance, but it's just a flashing silhouette. But I couldn't help running after that carriage. The speed of the train was already very slow, so that figure was always in my sight.I saw him stand up and take down a black suitcase from the luggage rack above his head, and then a woman in a blue coat seemed to say something to her, he nodded and took a red suitcase from the luggage rack box.

The train stopped completely. The door of the carriage opened, and the passengers came out one after another. When the familiar tall figure walked out of the carriage, I subconsciously hid behind the pillar. When I realized that the direction of the exit was not on my side, Lin Yusen had already gone a little far, so I quickly chased after him and followed him quietly... In other words, what am I messing with. Soon I found that I was not the only one following him, the woman in the blue dress also caught up with him, and vaguely I heard her thanking Lin Yusen. "Thank you just now for helping me carry the box, otherwise it's so heavy, I can't carry it."

Lin Yusen nodded slightly, but did not speak. I listened from a distance, not knowing why I suddenly felt a little proud.He's here because of me, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed here at all, and he wouldn't have helped you with your luggage. But then he was ashamed of his inexplicable pride. The woman in blue seemed to be silent and wanted to say something, but Lin Yusen's alienated attitude stopped her, and she walked to the other side in embarrassment. I followed behind him, watching him dismiss the enthusiastic woman without saying a word, I couldn't help but feel very happy, and my steps suddenly became brisk.

I suddenly found that following him secretly and wantonly looking at his tall and straight back was also a very interesting thing, so I made up my mind not to call him, and followed him first.However, after making this decision, the people in front suddenly stopped. He turned around abruptly, his eyes fixed on me. After a while, he strode towards me, as if wanting to confirm, staring firmly at my face, "Nie Xiguang?" ... How the hell did he find me... I looked up at him: "Yes." "How will you be here?" I deliberately looked around, but didn't look at him, "Hey, you don't know how cold the exit is. I froze to death wearing a coat, so I just bought a ticket in the waiting hall. There is heating. Then since the ticket is checked, I Just follow along, otherwise, if you lose a ticket, what if the train can’t leave?”

I thought he would complain that it's not the plane, the train doesn't wait for anyone, etc., but I didn't expect him to put on a very sympathetic expression: "That's right, Miss Nie's ticket is so important, how dare you leave without cutting the train ticket." "…Hey!" He smiled slightly: "Didn't I tell you eight o'clock?" I "hummed" twice, but he still dared to mention it. "You told me it was eight o'clock, but I checked the train timetable. The trains coming from there arrive at six o'clock in the morning and the other at ten o'clock in the morning. There is no eight o'clock at all. Why are you lying to me?"

In fact, before I asked him this question, I had already prepared the answer in my brain, for example... I was afraid that you would wake up too early and work hard... But he sighed and said: "I'm afraid you will say, 'Forget about Lin Yusen, I can't get up too early, you'd better go back to Suzhou by yourself.'" I couldn't help being angry and funny: "I won't do that!" "Well, now I know." He said, looking at me seriously. I thought it would be unnatural to see him again, but just now it wasn't at all, he was still as relaxed and casual as before.However, under his gaze at this moment, I don't know how to put my hands and feet.

I avoided his gaze for a while, and said jokingly, "By the way, it's amazing." "what?" "I saw it just now, the girl in the blue dress." He smiled: "Is it a plus or a minus?" I froze for a moment before I understood what he meant, and felt embarrassed immediately. "What's the plus and minus points, I'm not good at math..." Before he could speak again, I casually handed him the box in my hand: "Here you are, the steamed buns you bought for you." The hot Xiaolongbao has actually become a small frozen bun by now.In fact, it is silly to pack a small steamed bun for someone in winter, but... anyway, I just have a convulsion.

"There is a nice cafe next to the exit, let's eat there." "it is good." Seeing how fast he answered, I couldn't help reminding him: "It's very sweet." He smiled: "Really? That's very suitable for eating now." I couldn't help lowering my head, fearing that the corners of my mouth would reveal the surge in my heart, "Let's go!" This time I ran ahead. Probably because it was too early, the cafe was very quiet and there were not many customers. The waiter enthusiastically warmed up the Xiaolongbao for us, and even served some vinegar very thoughtfully, which surprised me.After breakfast, we walked slowly to the parking lot.

"Where do you want to go? Actually, there is nothing interesting in Wuxi, and Taihu Lake is too cold now." I tried hard to think about the classics, "Either go to Lingshan Brahma Palace, at least the top is still very beautiful, or go to the Three Kingdoms Water Margin City? Otherwise Yuantouzhu or something..." I gush on and on until his voice rings out. "I always thought that you would take me to see plum blossoms." I stopped short. Thinking of how ecstatic he was when he wrote in his letter that he had received my invitation to appreciate the plum blossoms, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness in his heart.After taking a breath of the cold air, I can say briskly: "Okay, then let's go to Meiyuan. The ticket for Meiyuan is the cheapest. You can help me save money."

I drove here by myself.In fact, I have taken Lin Yusen's car many times, but since I read his letter, I suddenly don't want him to drive anymore, and I always feel a little uneasy.So when I arrived at the parking lot, I decisively took the driver's seat first. Sure enough, Lin Yusen didn't obediently go to the passenger seat, but stood outside the driver's seat, leaned over and knocked on the car window politely. I opened the window. "There is snow on the road outside, I'll drive." "It's not that I don't trust your driving skills..." At first I wanted to find an excuse to make him give up the idea of ​​driving, but it suddenly occurred to me that maybe we will have many opportunities to go out together in the future, so we can't just make excuses every time, so I said seriously Immediately changed his words, "I really don't trust your driving skills." Probably hurt his self-esteem too much... He was speechless for a moment, looked at me, wanted to laugh but wasn't funny, and then sighed. I urged him: "Get in the car, get in the car, or the plum blossoms will all thank you." I drove the car on the winding roads of Wuxi with confidence, and drove through every road seriously, but when I was driving, I suddenly felt something was wrong... The sparkling lake in front of me was Taihu Lake, right?How do I enlighten the Taihu Lake to come up? I slowly parked the car on the side of the road, took out my phone, and before I opened the map software, I heard the person next to me calmly say: "There is an intersection ahead, you drove by the wrong way." I silently turned to look at him. "The road sign reminds you to take the right road, and you drive in the middle." "...Why didn't you say it earlier..." "Oh." He said solemnly, "I thought despised people were not qualified to guide the way." My expression must have been weird, and I turned the steering wheel depressed to turn back, but was stopped by Lin Yusen. "Don't look back, it's fine here." "what?" Lin Yusen said, "Look over there." I followed his gaze, and a large piece of red cloud in the distance suddenly broke into my eyes, as if it was a plum blossom in full bloom. I drove the car a little over and parked on the path next to it. When I got out of the car, there was indeed a large plum blossom forest. I don't know when, so many plum trees were planted on the edge of Taihu Lake.Right now it is the plum blossom season, and the snow has just fallen, and the snow is lightly pressing on the plum blossoms, which bloom peacefully and brilliantly on the edge of this inaccessible Taihu Lake. The water of Taihu Lake gently lapped the embankment. Lin Yusen and I walked through the plum grove quietly. No one spoke for a while, only the sound of shoes stepping on the snow. "So, you always thought that I was the one who invited you to see the plum blossoms two years ago? Did you treat me like that when you first joined the company?" Lin Yusen answered me after a while. "yes." "Then why did you..." I stopped, "Obviously in your heart I once abandoned you." "Involuntary." I stopped and looked at him. "I found many reasons to convince myself, maybe Jia Qi didn't make it clear, maybe you were too young at that time to face such a heavy matter, so you selectively forgot, this has also been a case in medicine. Or You don't know my Chinese name. At that time, Jiaqi introduced Vincent, and you just forgot my appearance, so you couldn't connect me with that person two years ago... I found many reasons, each reason There are so many loopholes, but I have convinced myself to believe each one, otherwise, how can I give up on myself and pursue you again?" "I'm not touched at all!" I really wanted to throw a snowball at him, "You don't even ask me, just blame me. Am I that kind of person?" "You are not." He let out a sigh of relief, "But Xiguang, apart from you, I never thought about anyone other than you. From the beginning to the end, I never thought it would be you." "I'm sorry," he said. "If it wasn't for my father who unintentionally exposed this matter, are you planning to keep it from me for the rest of your life?" Lin Yusen did not answer, apparently acquiescing. I couldn't help being depressed for a while, but besides the depression, there was more tenderness and sorrow. There is such a person who is willing to bear the pain for me alone, and is willing to continue as before after he thinks that I have let me down... A gust of lake wind blows, and the snow on the plum blossoms rustles down. "Why have you been running so far without saying a word these days?" Make me... so worried. "How should I face you?" His voice was rough, "I always thought that I could no longer pick up the scalpel because of you. Unrelated person, a mistake?" He laughed self-deprecatingly, "I don't even know how to explain to myself." "My life has literally become a joke." I felt a dull pain in my heart. But for a while, I couldn't even say a word of comfort, as if the language suddenly lost its effect, everything was so pale and powerless. "Nie Xiguang, when did you know him?" I froze for a moment before realizing that he was referring to Zhuang Xu. I didn't know why he asked this, but Dan still replied: "The summer vacation for juniors to seniors." "One and a half years." There was a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, "I often think of that sentence you said these days." "…what?" "You said, 'If only I knew you first'. But now, I'd rather I be the one who met you later, so that I wouldn't resent and think that if it wasn't for this blunder, we would have been together We got together, but," he said, "it turned out that I got to know you first." I don't understand what kind of magic power these few words have, they are so plain but they stung me all at once, together with the previous sentence "My life has become a joke" made me sad to the extreme, I was literally He blurted out in an instant. "I will be with you from now on." He was stunned and lost for a moment, and then his eyes seemed to be ignited, so eager to make one's heart palpitate, but soon the light disappeared again, "Xiguang, I hope we are together, but it is definitely not because of your moment impulse." I said stubbornly: "I was just impulsive, do you want it?" He stared at me quietly, and finally, as if admitting defeat, he pulled me into his arms and hugged me tightly. His coat was a little cold, but soon, his embrace became warm. I heard my heart beating so flusteredly, but I didn't want to break free at all. After a while, I heard him firmly say in my ear: "Yes." Then he repeated, slightly weary in his voice, "I will."
