The flowers are still sweet in Pinellia

Chapter 42

Picking up the banyan tree petals that fell on the book, Dong Fangjing smiled slightly, "It's the annual graduation season again..."

"Yeah, the seniors are going to graduate soon, and next year will be us." Mu Yan sighed lightly. Whenever we meet, there will be parting. This is the so-called unpredictable thing in life.

Looking at her beautiful profile, Dong Fangjing hesitated, "Mu Yan, I know I shouldn't say these things. But if you go on like this, is it really okay? Since he chose to let go, why don't you go to him? Obviously the two of you still have each other..."

Mu Yan silently looked ahead, wondering what she was thinking.

Seeing her like this, Dong Fangjing couldn't say anything else.

She chose You Zimo, but left her heart to Lin Xia.She originally didn't want to hurt anyone, but in the end she still hurt three people.

"It's okay, Fang Jing, this is a choice I made myself. I don't regret it." Suddenly, Mu Yan smiled, just like the peach blossoms in April, the moment of youth, just for Jun.

Dong Fangjing was stunned by her smile for an instant.

The snow-white long dress matched her pretty figure. Dong Fangjing stared at Mu Yan and smiled slightly. This scene reminded her of an ancient poem, "Beautiful beauty hides the past, and the lotus flower shames the beauty." '

"Let's go..." Mu Yan looked back and smiled.

"Oh..." Dong Fangjing nodded, and followed Mu Yan's footsteps in a daze.

Love him, so she hopes to have a girl to treat him wholeheartedly, not her.

Because she no longer deserves his love again.

After walking out of the restaurant, the two talked and laughed and walked back to the dormitory.But before entering the building, a figure stood in front of the two of them.

Mu Yan stared blankly at Lin Xia who suddenly appeared in front of her, and Lin Xia also stared at her without saying a word.

After scanning the two of them around, Dong Fangjing said very well, "Then, Mu Yan, I'll go back to the dormitory first."

Mu Yan nodded, and continued to play the big-eyed and small-eyed game with Lin Xia.

"Follow me." Lin Xia dropped these three words, then turned and left.Taking a deep breath, Mu Yan walked behind him.

The dim light shone on his body, reflecting his tall and straight back, there was an indescribable depression and desolation.

Suddenly a soreness arose in her heart, Mu Yan stopped in her tracks, "Lin Xia, did you see that note?"

Lin Xia didn't speak, but continued to walk forward.

Helpless, she had no choice but to continue walking.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, he didn't stop until they reached the grove of the School of Foreign Languages.Just when Mu Yan was still wondering what he was going to do, suddenly, he suddenly pulled her into his arms, and immediately pressed his warm lips towards her, and she was immediately stunned by his action.His lips were passionate and manic, pressing her tightly.Feeling his siege, she slapped his back fiercely, trying to break free from his imprisonment, but at this moment she realized that the gap between men and women is so big.

Instead of the gentleness of the past, he shook her head abruptly, leaving her nowhere to hide and no way to avoid it.

Entanglement, entanglement, everything about him made her have nowhere to escape.

Finally, he left her lips unsteadily.

Full of anger, she pushed him away and glared at him angrily. The horror in her eyes made his heart feel cold, "Lin Xia, what are you doing?"

He narrowed his eyes slightly and calmed down a little, "I'm doing what you did to me that night."

In a word, her cheeks flushed instantly.

"You look like this now, so when you did this to me, did you ask for my permission?"

His rhetorical question made her blush suddenly, yes, she did it without thinking about it, without considering whether he wanted it or not.

Looking at her calmly, Lin Xia took out a note from her pocket, and Mu Yan recognized at a glance that it was a note she wrote to him.

"Look at it." With a light twist, he tore the note into pieces in front of her, and with a wave of his hand, the white snow all over the sky danced lightly.

"Hey..." She grabbed his hand violently, trying to grab the remaining fragments, "What you're doing... is destroying the environment of our school."

He snorted softly, "Destroy it, just destroy it, it's better than you destroying other people's marriage."

"Marriage?" She put down his hand.

"You said that there will be other girls who will love me for you, other girls, okay..." There was another soft snort, "You go and find me one now, you only have three days, if I don't Satisfied, you just wait to pay me four years of youth."

Seeing the seriousness on his face, suddenly, she burst out laughing loudly.

"What are you laughing at?" Lin Xia gave her a serious look.

Mu Yan shook her head, the childish look on his face reminded her of the past.

The arrogant him, the venomous him, the gentle him, the cute him, no matter which one he was, she missed him so much.

Seeing her smile, Lin Xia immediately changed into her familiar face, "Mu Yan, are you going to tie me up with a new relationship as self-righteously as you did a few years ago. As I said, you It's the first one and the last one. Don't you understand the meaning of that sentence? If you're not by my side, what's the use of having that heart on me?"

The sourness in her heart made her lower her head abruptly, and said in a muffled voice, "I'm sorry."

"Don't say it, don't say this sentence again." He gently wrapped her in his arms, no longer the rudeness just now, but embraced her as tenderly as possible.Mu Yan didn't push him away, but listened to him quietly in his arms.

"Mu Yan, do you still remember what your favorite poem is?" He lowered his eyes and smiled softly, "Do you still remember?"

Favorite lyric?She was silent and listened quietly to him reading softly: "After the dream, the tower is locked high, and the curtain is lowered after the drunkenness. Last year when the spring hate came, the Luohua people were independent, and the swifts flew together. I remember Xiaoping's first meeting, two hearts The word Luo Yi. The strings on the pipa say lovesickness. At that time, the bright moon was there, and it once returned home according to the colorful clouds."

Suddenly, she murmured, "The Luohua people are independent, and the little swifts fly together."

Fragments of time seem to fly to the past.

'I remember the first time I saw Xiaoping, the word Luo Yi with double heart.The strings on the pipa say lovesickness... what's behind it? '

The young man put down the English book in his hand and smiled slightly, "The bright moon was there at that time, and it once returned home according to the colorful clouds." '

'Yes, this is it. The girl smiled sweetly, looked at the boy, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Why are your Chinese so good?" '

The boy raised his eyebrows slightly, and glanced at her nonchalantly, "Nonsense, don't you think that the name of the second in the department is covered?" '

Bright eyes and a slight smile, yes, he is so smart, he should remember these.She never thought that such a person was by her side right now.

Suddenly, the coldness on her forehead made her wake up suddenly.

The beautiful girl looked at the handsome young man with dissatisfaction, "You kissed me secretly again." '

'That's because I like you. He smiled maliciously, and took out a cup from behind with tenderness in his eyes, "Here, your favorite coconut milk tea." '

"Mu Yan..." A soft call brought her back to her senses.

It turned out that they used to be so beautiful...

But now...

"Lin Xia, I am no longer worthy of your love." Because she had already given up on him and chose another person.

Lin Xia sighed softly, "Don't say that. I know that your relationship is very complicated and difficult to understand. Maybe it will go on like this for the rest of your life. But, why don't you dare to face your own heart? You always You are thinking of others, but you don’t care about your own thoughts. You can’t bear to hurt him, because he is the child your father saved with his life, and you have special feelings for him. What about me, what am I in your heart? What kind of existence? You don't want to hurt him, but you hurt me again and again. Where do you put me?"

Her words made her choke again and blurted out, "I'm sorry."

She didn't want to hurt the child her father had saved with his life, but she was hurting him, hurting deeply all the time.

"Don't say that again, okay..." Lin Xia hugged her tightly, the melancholy in her tone made her heart tighten suddenly, "Mu Yan, I actually heard what you said that night, You know, the moment you walked out of the ward, my heart was completely empty."

My heart is completely empty... Why isn't she like this?

"Lin Xia, we missed time and time again, and I hurt you so much, how can we go back, we can't go back anymore."

Tears once again soaked and stained his clothes.

The past that has passed away will never come back.

"If you can't go back, then don't go back." Lin Xia said firmly, "Originally, I wanted you to know that I have been waiting for you in the memory, but now I don't want to do this. Mu Yan, let's not go back gone."

"Don't go back?" she murmured softly.

Slowly letting go of her, he didn't answer her question, but stared at her quietly, the light shining from his eyes hidden in the dark night made her unable to understand.

He said don't go back.Yes, they really can't go back.

Because, the good times of the past have long since vanished.

They are still strangers.

……

After meeting that night, Lin Xia never came to her again, maybe he finally figured it out, they have already become strangers.

Putting down the "Advanced Japanese Translation" in her hand, Mu Yan stretched her waist a long way.Yang Xiao was watching "White Night Journey", and with her own strong recommendation, she finally walked into the "Abyss of Evil".

Leaning out, Mu Yan looked at a figure who was reading a book, "Master, do you have any opinion on the relationship between Liangji and Xuesui?"

Yang Xiao put down the book and sighed softly, "The love between them is too heavy, white nights, white nights... Even in the daytime, they can only treat it as the night."

"Walking in the white night, walking in the night during the day..." Mu Yan smiled, "The two people's hope, the only hope, is to be able to walk hand in hand under the sun. But, in the end, they failed to realize their wish. willing."

"Yeah..." Yang Xiao couldn't help sighing.

When the two were discussing the plot enthusiastically, Shen Yiru pushed open the door of the dormitory and screamed, "Bajie, master, look down quickly, there is a boy below who is setting up candles."

"Put candles?" Hearing this, Yang Xiao immediately put down the "White Night Journey" in her hand, got up and walked to the balcony. After seeing the situation below, she also exclaimed, "Really, there are really people There are candles. There are several boys..."

Seeing that the two were excitedly discussing which girl had this honor, Mu Yan smiled nonchalantly, "It must be a guy who wants to please girls."

Ignoring the enthusiastic speculation of the two, she quietly soaked in hot water, sat at the table and ate instant noodles.

After tidying up the dishes, Mu Yan lay back on the bed and started watching dramas for an hour every day.

It's just that before watching for a few minutes, a familiar bell rang suddenly.

Staring at the name on the phone screen, she sighed.After hesitating for a while, she still picked it up, "What's the matter?"

The boy on the other end of the phone didn't speak, just smiled while holding the phone.

"What's the matter?" Frowning impatiently, she asked again.

Finally, he opened his mouth, but there was still a deep smile in his words, "Mu Yan, look downstairs now."

"Why do you want to watch it?" She asked in confusion, what was he doing downstairs in her dormitory?
Lin Xia smiled lightly, "Stop talking, just look down."

Frowning helplessly, Mu Yan got out of bed and walked to the balcony.Originally, she had the mentality to just take a look, but this glance made her hold the phone in place in a daze.

What greeted her eyes was a radiant light, and there was a gleaming heart made of candles in the open space downstairs of the dormitory, and he was standing in the center of the heart and smiling at her while he was calling her.

His face in the halo is so unreal, like a dreamlike existence.

It turned out that the guy she said wanted to please girls was him...

The three people in the dormitory saw Mu Yan stunned on the balcony, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong, Mu Yan?"

Holding the phone, Mu Yan smiled at the three of them and said, "I'm going down for a while."

Shen Yiru and Yang Xiao were stunned for a moment, and couldn't help saying at the same time, "Aren't you not going to see it?"

Mu Yan just smiled and said nothing.

Putting on a coat, Mu Yan changed her shoes and ran downstairs.Just as soon as she got downstairs, she saw a group of troublemakers already occupying a favorable position around him, waiting for a good show to be staged.

Pushing aside the hustle and bustle of onlookers, she entered the halo and walked slowly in front of him.

Gazing at this handsome face in the candlelight, Mu Yan pretended to be calm and asked, "Lin Xia, why did you do this?"

The flickering candlelight made him even more handsome and timeless.Suddenly, he smiled lightly.She was slightly taken aback, then quickly reacted.

"Show me my love for you..." Pure emotion overflowed from his eyes, and a smile filled his entire handsome face.

As soon as the words came out, people around immediately screamed.

Originally, everyone was still guessing which girl could be admired by such a handsome boy, but when Mu Yan appeared in front of him, everyone was not surprised.

Someone knew Mu Yan and whispered about their relationship.

Mu Yan sighed softly, and she looked at him seriously, "Lin Xia, you didn't do this before."

Lin Xia smiled, "Yes, people change."

Mu Yan choked, as if she had said this to him before.

"Would you like to be with me?" He smiled, his eyes were tender and tender.

"Together?" she repeated, muttering.

"Yes." A smile bloomed on his handsome face, "With me, would you like to?"

One sentence made her suddenly fall into silence, yes, she is now free again.No one but her alone.

"Mu Yan... I said, since you can't go back, then don't go back. I don't mean to give up on you, but to start over."

restart?She raised her eyes in a daze, his face was hidden in the candlelight, and the flickering brightness made everything so unreal.

Suddenly, a naughty smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he raised his eyebrows slightly, "This classmate, I fell in love with you immediately, can you tell me your name, mobile phone number, and home address."

Mu Yan was slightly stunned, what is this guy doing?
"Of course, before chasing a girl, you must first declare your family background. My surname is Lin and my name is Xia. She studied at the law department of N University next door. She graduated from high school attached to W University in A City. She was born in 199X and is still single. I think I am good at cooking, but I am best at cooking fried rice with eggs and egg drop soup, and my favorite historical figures are Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Xiao Tong, Prince Zhaoming of the Southern Liang Dynasty.”

Suppressing a smile, she watched his performance without blinking.

Finally, he frowned slightly, and asked softly, "Student, may I ask, do you have a boyfriend?"

Shaking her head, she smiled sweetly, "No."

"Then, be my girlfriend." Suddenly, Lin Xia knelt down on one knee, and presented the bouquet of red roses to her with both hands.

In an instant, there was a roar of booing, screams and whistles.There are also good people who even took pictures of this scene with their mobile phones.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhs

"Quickly promise him, such a handsome man and beautiful woman..."

"Student Mu Yan, promise him quickly, ho ho..."

'Kiss one, kiss one...'

Hearing the increasingly loud commotion around her, Mu Yan recovered from her daze.He still maintained this movement, staring at her intently with both eyes.

Mu Yan took a deep breath and took the flowers in Lin Xia's hand, but then she raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him with some amusement, "Why? I don't like you, why should I want to be your girlfriend."

In the candlelight, his face became more and more handsome. Lin Xia stood up slowly, smiling all over his eyes, "It doesn't matter if you don't like me now, I will make you fall in love with me in the future. According to my investigation, you have been waiting for a boy , a boy buried by time. So I will try my best to be the sunny boy you like, the boy who was buried by time. How about it, try it. Anyway, I am also a handsome guy, and I will fall in love with a handsome guy It's not a disadvantage."

"Try it?" Suddenly, she chuckled and stared into his eyes, "It's not bad, you can think about it."

"Okay, I'll wait for your answer..." He smiled heartily, but then frowned again, "But I only give you a week to think about it."

"Okay..." She nodded.

Get her affirmation.In the end, he whispered again as before, "A week later, I will still be here at this place, and I will wait for your answer. Don't let me go, or I will never forgive you."

The familiar words made her smile unconsciously and replied "Okay."

He was staring at her, and she was also staring at him, as if they were the only ones left in the world.

As in the vast crowd, people who have missed each other for many years meet each other, and at the same time, they turned around and said tacitly, so you are still here.

Going around and around, finally, they returned to the original point.

Suddenly, she smiled slightly, as she said countless times many years ago, "Then I'll go back."

"Okay." He also nodded with a smile.

The people around are still booing, and some people want them to hug and kiss in public.

Ignoring those gazes and yelling, Mu Yan got up and walked back to the dormitory with the flowers in her arms.She didn't look back, but she knew he must be looking at her, just like in high school, watching her go upstairs before he turned and left.

Because of them, neither of them has changed.

Gazing at that beautiful figure, Lin Xia's lips once again raised a perfect arc.

He didn't force her because he knew that there was a sea of ​​time between them.

Therefore, he will wait until she accepts him again and accommodates him.

……

36 roses, my love is only for you.Smiling and shaking her head, Mu Yan pushed open the door of the dormitory.

However, the two great gods waiting at the door immediately pulled her onto the bed after seeing her come back.Shen Yiru took the roses in her hand, counted them carefully, and immediately exclaimed, "36 roses. The meaning is very ambiguous...my love is only for you."

Yang Xiao also glanced at the bouquet of roses, then turned his head, "Mu Yan, what's going on here, tell us quickly."

Shen Yi smiled like a thief, "We saw it clearly upstairs just now, what happened to that handsome boy, where is your brother Zimo?"

As soon as this name was mentioned, the smile on Mu Yan's face faded halfway, and after a while, she whispered, "We broke up."

separate?Both of them were taken aback.

"Why?" Yang Xiao asked in surprise, "Why did you break up?"

Mu Yan shook her head, but did not say the reason. The doubts between the two had not been resolved, so Yang Xiao could only continue to ask, "Then what happened to the boy just now?"

"Lin Xia is my ex-boyfriend."

Eh?This time, the two were even more bored.

"Ex-boyfriend?" Shen Yiru interjected.

Mu Yan nodded, "Yes, he's in N University next door, the law department."

As if realizing something, Shen Yiru exclaimed, "Is it related to the debate competition in freshman year, the debate competition you are going to watch?"

Mu Yan nodded and didn't speak.

Seeing that she confirmed her guess, Shen Yiru paused, and said clearly, "Ex-boyfriend, are you asking for reunion?"

Seeking compound?Mu Yan smiled slightly, and gave a soft 'huh'.

The two continued to be reluctant, "Then did you promise him?"

"I told him, give me some time to think about it." They are no longer as ignorant as they were in high school.In the past four years, they have matured a lot for each other.

Mu Yan went to wash up.

Only the two of them were left staring at the beautiful bouquet of fiery red roses, and sighed, "It really is a word of love, the most difficult to understand."

……

Rolling his eyes at the girl who just passed by, Yang Xiao turned around gracefully.

"Master, leave them alone." Mu Yan smiled, "If you deal with them one after another like this, you won't be able to clean them up until you graduate."

"But you don't mind her looking at you like that?"

Mu Yan smiled helplessly, "If I mind, then my eyes would have turned into pinpricks by now."

Recalling the way those girls looked at Mu Yan, Yang Xiao sighed speechlessly, "Women's jealousy is really scary."

Mu Yan just smiled and said nothing.Thanks to Lin Xia, such a candlelight courtship made her more famous.Although it cannot be said that Master S is known to everyone, at least within a radius of one kilometer, everyone knows that a girl in the #32 dormitory building is the heroine of the "love drama" that shocked the school.Especially in the School of Foreign Languages, when some seniors saw her, they would ask her who that handsome boy was.

The peaceful life that Mu Yan originally hoped for was abruptly broken like this.

Walking on the road, there will be people pointing fingers.

Those with good intentions even investigated Lin Xia's background and found out that he was a student of N University next door.A girl said behind her back that she stepped on several boats and just broke up with a boy from the School of Economics of this school, and then found a boy from N University next door.

Others say that she has no face, and her life style is not very discreet, and it is just her nature to do so.

Even more vicious language, saying that she was just playing with these poor boys.

For these malicious slanders, Mu Yan just laughed it off.

For the ridiculous girls who don't know the truth, she doesn't need to explain to them.

Only the three people in the dormitory were aggrieved. You Zimo and Mu Yan broke up peacefully. Lin Xia and Mu Yan were also boyfriend and girlfriend before.

Why can't the two be together?

For the anger of the women in the dormitory, Mu Yan was very grateful.But she is used to these situations, and she is also used to being criticized.

Gossip and gossip are endless, as long as a person survives for a day, he will live in the eyes of others.

It's just that what she is thinking about now is not this, but...

You Zimo left, and Zheng Guangzhi told her the news.

Zheng Guangzhi found her and handed her a wooden box exuding a fragrance.

As soon as she saw this box, Mu Yan immediately understood what You Zimo wanted to express.

Because this box was something she had seen in his house before, and it contained dozens of letters she wrote to him from the second year of junior high school to the third year of high school.

Zheng Guangzhi looked at Mu Yan and said softly, "Mu Yan, this is what he left for you."

"En." Mu Yan nodded, she understood the meaning of this.

Opening the box, she flipped through these letters one after another. From the first letter to the last letter, they wrapped around her tightly like vines, and a slight movement felt a piercing pain.

She hurt him in the end, hurt him deeply.

Her brother Zimo has already gone to another strange country with his dreams and hopes.

She should bless him.

"Brother Dazhi, thank you." Mu Yan smiled slightly, at least there is still one person who can tell her about him.

Zheng Guangzhi smiled, "It's nothing, this is what I should do."

"I'm really happy to know you." There was still a trace of expectation in my heart, "It's just, did he say anything else?"

"No." Zheng Guangzhi shook his head, "He didn't say anything, he just asked me to give this to you."

"Really?" A trace of inexplicable flashed in my heart... I felt very uncomfortable in my heart.

Didn't even leave a word to her? Did she really hurt him so deeply?
"But he wants you to be happy." Zheng Guangzhi smiled. Although You Zimo didn't say anything, judging from his expression at the time, Zheng Guangzhi still understood.The reason why he chose to let go was because he loved her deeply.

Her words made her hang her head in silence.Happiness, he once promised to give her happiness.

It's just that now he chooses to let go and let her pursue her own happiness.

But she couldn't give him his happiness...
