With the light behind her, her outline was much blurred. It was obvious that he had reached the point of returning, but Fu Shize didn't want to break the tranquility at this moment.
His feelings for Yunli didn't come out of the blue.
He recognized her when he happened to see her high school photo - the high school student who made a robot many years ago.
It's just that he is no longer the same person as before.
Nor did he take their dramatic reunion to heart. He cannot be as indifferent to strangers as he is to people he has paid attention to before, nor will he pay as much attention as he did when he was young.
He could see clearly what she was thinking.
At first he never thought about it.
He no longer has the strength to establish a new bond.
However, she seemed to want to fight him to the death.
Even though she doesn't dare to socialize, she always has the courage to move forward.
Seemingly soft, yet inexplicably strong.
Unconsciously, the balance in his heart had already tilted a lot.
After knowing that he was the person she came to the University of Western Science and Technology to find, her emotions were shattered, leaving only bitterness everywhere.
I am no longer the person you yearn for.
Even if it's not me, you can still meet a partner who is as courageous as you.
But he couldn't accept that the reason she gave up was because she felt that she was humiliating herself.
It was himself who clearly did not have the courage to move forward.
She doesn't deserve any injustice.
Now that she has taken so many steps, she still firmly likes him.
The rest of the way should be walked by him.
-
Fu Shize still didn't move.
His eyes were not fiery, and Yunli didn't even read other emotions. The only thing that was certain was that he had been looking at her.
She glanced down at the cardboard drone in his hand.
Fu Shize has always been a very reserved person.
Even when he was drunk, he would not say a few words.
Yunli liked the feeling of getting along with him like this, and she was not a particularly lively person.
Yunli couldn't help but think about her current dress and appearance. Maybe the hair on her forehead was blocking her eyes a little, and her hair was too long and needed to be cut.
She was thinking about these things in confusion when Fu Shize suddenly said: "We will be together when I come back from Yihe."
After taking that crucial step, he could no longer back down.
His voice was not loud, hidden in the darkness.
Yunli followed his gaze and was speechless for a moment.
After a while, he seemed to remember to ask her opinion, and added: "Is it okay?"
Yun Li remained silent, but Fu Shize thought for a while and continued: "I generally don't have mood swings. Maybe you will think that I have no emotions."
"I can tell you for sure that I like you."
A little softness came into his tone.
"Maybe you won't find it enough, but there will be more in the future."
A few words soothed Yunli's uneasy feeling.
After leaving the grove last night, she heard the hint in Fu Shize's words. Yunli's emotions broke through her rationality. She didn't delve into his rejection or his indifference in the past. She just thought that it was enough for him to have a good impression of her.
During the whole day of dating, Yunli hid the uneasiness deep in her heart. When she first dug out the video from Western University of Science and Technology and saw the familiar young man in it, she felt more like a trance.
Because that was a game that only she knew about.
She once rode a 40-minute bicycle to Western University of Science and Technology every day after the college entrance examination. She waited for more than half a month and finally arrived at the Unique exhibition, but she didn't see the person she wanted to see.
She didn't get admitted to the University of Western Science and Technology, so she covered up the photos in her room, thinking that she would never have the chance to see him again.
For her, it was the beginning of humble love.
The two met again and pursued Fu Chize. Her original intention was just to give it a try.
Even if they fail, the two of them will just return to their previous state—
She has known him for seven years, but has always been in a stranger's state.
Even if the relationship between the two does not move forward, there is no room for retreat.
That kind of state is not particularly difficult to accept.
It’s just that every time I think about it, I always feel that something is missing, and it’s not even worthy of being called a regret.
In fact, she never thought that he might like her. What she never expected was that she could hear these words from his mouth.
Starting on Christmas Eve, she had many worries on her mind.
He is the proud man of heaven, how could he like her.
Yunli couldn't find the reason why he liked her.
Still, she didn't need a reason at the moment.
If he is willing to admit it, Yunli is willing to believe him without giving any reason.
Because her wishes are pure.
She just wanted to be with him.
Yunli's eyes were wet, and she tried to make her tone more reasonable: "Can I not wait until you come back from Yihe?"
Can we be together now
Fu Shize smiled: "You like me very much."
No matter how deeply he buries his heart, he doesn't want the people in front of him to suffer all the hardships of this competition.
"Then I've been chasing you for a long time, and you know it." Yunli admitted. He had just confessed his love, and she didn't have to be reserved to hide her feelings.
He thought for a while and said in a serious tone: "So it's unfair to you and a little hasty."
Yunli didn't understand the meaning of his words. She was the one pursuing him, but she directly denied what he said: "We are in love, there is nothing unfair or rash."
"So-" Before Yun Li could finish her words, Fu Shize spoke.
"Let me tell you."
He stayed close.
"It's still a little embarrassing for you to hear this."
"But whatever I want to tell you, I will say it in your right ear."
-"I like you."
- "Can you stay with me?"
Yunli's eyes were red, but the corners of her lips curved: "You know I won't refuse."
Fu Shize held the cardboard drone in one hand. After hesitating for a long time, he reached out and rubbed Yunli's head, stroking her soft hair.
Then, this hand moved forward, moving to Yunli's face, and the palm of his hand was pressed against her cheek. It was warm and dry, as if he wanted to transfer all the heat.
Seeing him lowering his eyes with no emotion on his face, Yunli asked cautiously, "What's wrong?"
"I was thinking about that day at Western University of Science and Technology—"
Fu Shi looked at her face and asked, "Is your face frozen?"
Yunli couldn't quite remember which day he was talking about, but she just felt a little nervous.
The atmosphere is charming to the extreme.
Just when Yunli thought he was going to make the next move.
But Fu Shize withdrew his hand and turned away: "I'm going back first."
The temperature on her face suddenly dropped. Yunli felt a little disappointed and said, "Okay."
Noticing her mood, Fu Shize said, "I'll come tomorrow too."
Yun Li curled her lips and smiled: "Then we'll see you tomorrow."
Not long after Fu Shize left, Yunli received news from him.
Fu Shize: [What time will the class start tomorrow?]
Yunli glanced at the class schedule: [Eight o'clock.]
Yunli: [Be careful on the road.]
Fu Chize: [Hmm]
Suddenly remembering what was in the bag, Yunli immediately went to dig it out.
The box was small and exquisite, and Yunli opened it carefully as if holding her own treasure.
Inside is a pair of pearl earrings.
A round, pure white pearl hangs underneath a simple metal chain.
It feels perfect for her.
-
The next day, as soon as Yunli woke up, she received a message from Fu Shize: [Are you awake?]
Yunli was still very sleepy. She was too excited to sleep last night, so she still replied: [Wake up.]
After sending this message, Yunli felt a little colder again, so she added: [Good morning^^]
Before she got up, she heard someone knocking on the door.
Unexpectedly, someone knocked on the door at this time. Yunli got up and walked to the door but did not open it immediately.
The knocking on the door did not continue.
She lay on tiptoe and looked through the cat's eye, and saw Fu Shize standing at the door holding a bag.
Yunli was not sleepy at all, so she hurriedly opened the door and said happily: "Why are you here!"
Suddenly remembering that she hadn't washed her face yet, she hurried to the bathroom and left a message: "Sit in the living room for a while first!"
Fu Shi put the bag on the coffee table and took out the bread and milk inside. I took one myself, sat on the sofa and chewed it carefully.
Yunli didn't want him to wait too long, so she took care of herself.
When he walked out of the living room, he saw the bread and milk on the table, pointed at it and asked, "Is it for me?"
"Um."
Yunli nervously walked over and sat next to him, while Fu Shi helped her unpack the chocolate milk, insert the straw, and help her unpack the bread.
Picking up the chocolate milk, Yunli smiled shyly: "This is the brand I like to drink."
Then, she probed: "Do you know?"
Fu Shize leaned on the armrest of the sofa with his hand, supported his chin, and looked sideways at her: "If what you are asking is, am I secretly paying attention to you."
"Then I'll answer."
"yes."
Yunli found it incredible how he could say such heart-warming words so calmly. She was speechless and turned her face away.
Fu Shi lowered his eyes and saw her turning her face to the other side and snickering, and involuntarily raised her eyebrows.
"Eat slowly, and I'll take you to school after you're done."
"Okay." Yunli thought of his schedule, "Aren't you going on a business trip today?"
Fu Shize said casually: "After seeing you off, we will go to the airport."
Yunli: "Then you came here specially to see me?"
Fu Shize: "Yeah."
Yunli finished her breakfast and lingered on the sofa for a while before packing her things and going out.
As the two of them walked on the road, Yunli asked again, "Did you really come here specifically to see me?"
Fu Shize replied again: "There is no other reason." He seemed not to understand her question, "What?"
"I just think," Yunli looked down at the ground and whispered, "you seem to like me too."
Fu Shize sent Yunli to the door of the classroom.
Standing some distance away from the door, Fu Shi took out a bunch of car keys from his pocket and handed them to Yun Li.
Yunli took it and asked in confusion: "Why did you give me the key?"
