Li Mu's question made Su Yingxue's expression flash with panic.
For Li Mu, he has always felt that he failed in his previous life, so he has some instinctive lack of confidence in many memories of his previous life. His freshman year started on the afternoon of the last day of the college entrance examination, which was a break in his life. After that He was confident, courageous and tough enough, but he was not sure what he was like before that.
In my memory, I was mediocre in my three years of high school. Whether it was study, appearance, clothing, or family, I could only be considered average in the class. But Su Yingxue was different. Her every move, every frown, and every smile touched the hearts of all the boys in the school. , so Li Mu in his previous life always felt that his unrequited love for Su Yingxue would be fruitless. Even if he occasionally had thoughts and some confidence in coveting her in this life, it would only be after rebirth.
However, what Su Yingxue said just now somewhat subverted Li Mu's usual understanding. Su Yingxue could tell so many details about her three years in high school, which proved that she had paid attention to him back then.
Seeing that Su Yingxue was silent, Li Mu said, "Let me tell you something from my heart. I have been paying close attention to you for three years in high school."
Su Yingxue smiled slightly, and the previous panic disappeared. Her face was filled with a different kind of confidence and relief, and she said to Li Mu, "Me too."
With that said, Su Yingxue picked up the can in her hand and said, "Let's drink one to make up for the previous one."
Li Mu said: "You just said that the one before was the farewell wine, why are you still replenishing it now?"
Su Yingxue smiled and said: "It's wine that makes up for it. As for the prefix, the glass of wine at the beginning was for farewell, and now this glass is..."
Su Yingxue in front of Li Mu suddenly fell into thinking.
She subconsciously made a comparison, originally wanting to tell Li Mu that this glass of wine was no longer a farewell drink, but had the opposite meaning, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't know what words to use to describe it.
There was a word in her heart, but she was embarrassed to say it.
She felt that the missing cup was parting, and the supplemented cup was staying together...
Staying together means waiting for each other, which is very appropriate for her and Li Mu's current situation, but she also feels that the word "staying together" is always used in love. Saying it, would it be disrespectful or would it cause misunderstanding
Li Mu saw Su Yingxue lost in thought as she spoke, and knew in her heart that Su Yingxue would not be at a loss for words even if she was at a loss for words. She must have thought of what she wanted to say, but she just couldn't say it.
Coincidentally, Li Mu also thought of that word.
So, he pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Now this cup is for you."
Su Yingxue was slightly stunned. Li Mu suddenly said this word, which happened to be exactly what she was thinking. Her previous reserve was wiped away. She raised her wine glass, nodded and said, "You're right, we stay together."
Li Mu raised his head and drank another bottle of wine.
Looking at Su Yingxue again, she frowned and took a big sip. Unexpectedly, she choked when she was about to finish the drink, causing a violent cough.
Li Mu patted her back gently and said, "Just take a small sip and drink something meaningful."
"No." Su Yingxue's voice was a bit coquettish: "I have never indulged myself so much. Just let me do whatever I want."
Li Mu nodded slightly, feeling more regretful about his attitude and performance towards Su Yingxue after going to college. At least he should continue to pay attention to her like he did in high school. This is to not forget his original intention.
The more he drank, the more he drank. When he was thinking about something, his alcohol capacity would become particularly bad. After a few bottles of beer, Li Mu was already a little drowsy, but his mind became more and more random.
Looking back on Su Yingxue's life path in her previous life, except for her love life, which seemed completely blank, she did very well in other fields, and was successful in her studies and career.
It was also the impression from his previous life that caused trouble. Li Mu always felt that Su Yingxue was a very independent woman. She saw problems much more thoroughly than her peers, and she also had a much longer-term view. Therefore, he always thought that Su Yingxue was that kind of woman. A woman who is completely independent of emotions will never rely on the opposite sex to provide her satisfaction in life, but will rely on hard work to realize her own values and dreams.
However, he didn't know that Su Yingxue had just buried her dependence on feelings.
Not only was she secretly paying attention to Li Mu in her previous life, but also these days, Su Yingxue was thinking about him almost every day. However, she rationally felt that Li Mu must be busy these days, entangled with various things. Although she could not give him his career If it brings any substantial help, at least it cannot hold him back.
Su Yingxue was this kind of woman who was as light as water in her previous life. Even if she was concerned about her, she would only keep her concern in her heart and rarely let the other party know.
In the last life, the two of them tacitly hid their concerns from each other. On the night when Su Yingxue took the train north to study at Renmin University, she was thinking about Li Mu who was about to go to Jinling. When I was living, I often thought of Su Yingxue who was far away in Yanjing.
He wanted to know the news about Su Yingxue, so he found the edge of the pool. Because Su Yingxue was very famous in the school, Li Mu could see countless information about her by going directly to the edge of the pool. But Su Yingxue wanted to know the news about him. , it’s always difficult in general.
She also followed the forum of Li Mu's school, but throughout her freshman year, she didn't see any news related to Li Mu on it. It wasn't until her sophomore year that she saw a post about Li Mu's college days. A photo of the band's first performance. At that time, she was still slightly disappointed because she knew that college students who play music are always surrounded by many girls.
Both of them care about each other, but they both feel that the other has forgotten them a long time ago. In life, there are countless men and women who have not been able to get together because of this. The magnetic fields between them are too similar, and sometimes they have the opposite effect. .
That's why it happened that Li Mu chased Su Yingxue to Yanjing, only to find that Su Yingxue had gone abroad. The news that Li Mu stayed in Yanjing to develop was learned by Su Yingxue. Su Yingxue gave up her dream of Wall Street and returned to China for development, but in the end the two ended up working together again. When a city took root, Su Yingxue never waited for any news from Li Mu.
Like Li Mu, she also felt that there might be nothing left in each other's hearts.
Again, the huge Yanjing had never allowed the two of them to pass by each other.
In the end, Su Yingxue focused on her career, but was forced by her family to marry the younger brother of a good sister who was studying in the United States.
She and her good sisters knew that each other was gay, and Su Yingxue was rushing to get married in person. Until the moment she put on her wedding dress in the United States, she still had a regret that had been in her heart for many years: She wanted to marry Li Mu at the party after her senior year of high school. They wanted to have a farewell drink, but at that dinner, Li Mu got drunk too quickly. By the time Su Yingxue made up her mind to take the initiative to go find him for a drink, he was already gone.
Unfortunately, Li Mu did not know the inside story of these past lives in his previous life, and it was even less possible for Su Yingxue to know the life trajectory that she had already gone through in her previous life.
However, Li Mu suddenly found something that he had never found in Su Yingxue this night.
It's confidence.
Perhaps, Su Yingxue is not the kind of strong woman she imagined who only cares about career and dreams; perhaps, she once had the same thoughts as herself when she was quietly paying attention to herself; perhaps, she also has the same concerns about love as other girls. Longing.
The parting in the previous life, the togetherness in this life...
Li Mu repeated this sentence countless times in his heart. His life had already undergone such a huge reversal, so why not bite the bullet and turn him upside down? !
For a moment, Li Mu seemed to feel his great ambition. He suddenly raised his head, his eyes bursting with burning light, staring at Su Yingxue and said: "Yingxue, I will chase you from now on!"
Su Yingxue was stunned as if struck by lightning. She was surprised by Li Mu's words. Why did he say that he would chase her from now on instead of just saying "I like you" like other men do. Please be my girlfriend. The latter is It’s just the usual way to express love, right
What's more, she likes Li Mu. Ever since she saw the gleaming look in the eyes of this guy who had been groggy all day long when he looked at her, she discovered that somehow, she would also be attracted by him. I was attracted by his small but dark eyes. Sometimes, the feeling of liking someone does not need material, appearance or even ability to support it. A long-lasting look back is enough.
However, Su Yingxue quickly figured out that if Li Mu just said "Be my girlfriend" like others did, she would probably hesitate and struggle. After all, she not only promised her parents not to fall in love during college, but even I have never made any preparations for falling in love. If Li Mu suddenly skips the confession and directly asks for a clear answer from me, I am afraid that I will be frightened by him.
Li Mu now said that he would start chasing him. This should be regarded as a different kind of confession, right? This guy doesn't even take the usual path when it comes to expressing his love.
Su Yingxue thought about this, and she felt shy and happy in her heart. She once read a sentence in a magazine, which probably meant: If you like someone when you are young, the happiest thing is not that you can be together soon, but that you will be together soon. It is you who know that you like each other.
Su Yingxue blushed and asked Li Mu, "Then how are you going to chase me?"
"I don't know." Li Mu spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "I haven't thought about it yet, you have to let me think about it."
Su Yingxue found that Li Mu was usually very independent and discerning in doing things, but now for some reason, he had a dazed energy all over his body. He looked silly, but he was actually very cute.
Su Yingxue asked Li Mu with rare shyness: "What is your purpose in chasing me?"
Li Mu said calmly: "Long-term care, right? Long-term care is a test, anytime, anywhere, throughout your life..."
