In the following days, Bei Er and Ye Shuwei kept seeing each other once a week, basically just to take pictures. The locations for taking photos were chosen near Ye Shuwei's research institute, parks, small coffee stands, soup bun shops, roadsides... basically searched the few leisure places around the research institute.
"Let's go to Yuncha Mountain next time." Bei Er Er bit his straw, looking at Ye Shu Wei who was sitting across from him and was writing with his head down.
"Too far." He vetoed.
"The Ocean Park?"
"Too noisy."
"Farmhouse?"
"Not interested in."
Bei Er Duo moved the drink cup aside: "What are you interested in?"
"Playing games, reading books, and sleeping alone at home."
"I mean two people."
Ye Shu Wei stopped the tip of his pen, raised his eyes and glanced at her: "With you?"
"With your girlfriend." Bei Er held his chin and grinned happily, "Just imagine what you want to do with the other party if you fall in love."
Ye Shu Wei really thought about this question, and said after a while: "Climbing, skydiving, and bungee jumping with me are all very good."
Bei Er Duo's smile froze: "You don't like sports on flat ground?"
"Flatland sports?" He continued to look at her. "You mean biking, skating and walking? You don't have to try to know it's boring."
"But it's safe." She added weakly.
"It turns out that you are so timid."
Bei Er Duo felt a certain kind of "contempt", and felt a little displeased. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Have you ever tried bungee jumping?"
"Played many times."
"How did you feel when you jumped?"
"Comfortable and free."
"Really? Isn't it the kind of fear of diving into a bottomless pit?"
"With a rope tied to your body, how can you feel fear?"
"What if the rope breaks suddenly?" Bei Er Duo often had such inexplicable worries.
"There will be repeated security checks in advance, the probability of this is very small." Ye Shuwei looked at her with a little "disgust".
"That is to say, one hundred percent security cannot be guaranteed?"
"Of course there is no guarantee."
Bei Er Duo was startled from the bottom of his heart, frowned in thought, and then said: "Let's play some less difficult aerial sports."
"for example?"
"Vertical roller coaster?"
Ye Shu paused for 0.5 seconds, looked away leisurely, and continued writing.
Bei Er Duo, who was "despised", went all out and suggested: "Let's play jumping machine!"
"You mean the forty-five-meter-high one in the playground?" He said calmly, "Is it different from peaceful sports?"
"... Forty-five meters, already high, okay?!" Now thinking about it, she felt like she was on the scene, and she was so nervous.
Ye Shuwei finally stopped what he was doing, closed his notebook, and folded his hands: "Are you really going to play?"
At this point, what was said cannot be taken back, Bei Er Duo intends to challenge her limit, she nodded seriously: "I'm going."
On Sunday, a paradise in H City.
The sun was shining brightly, and Bei Er, who was standing not far from the jumping machine, raised his head to look at the large-scale equipment that was more than a dozen stories high, and was already thinking of retreating...
Just as I was thinking whether to say, "The weather is so hot, it should be even hotter up there, or we can play again when the weather cools down", when a calm and disdainful voice came from behind: "So short?"
so short...
so short...
so short...
Bei Er Duo turned his head and looked at Ye Shu Wei, who was dressed in sportswear. The latter unscrewed the mineral water bottle and took a sip of water.
"It seems to be very hot today." Bei Er Duo said thoughtfully.
"Thirty-seven degrees."
"It should be hotter up there." Bei Er Duo continued, "Or..."
"We'll make it quick." He said, "Let's go, you've been watching here for a long time, do you still want to buy a ticket?"
"Oh, let's go." Bei Er Duo walked up slowly, like a snail's speed.
"If you're afraid, tell me, we won't play anymore." Seeing this, Ye Shuwei said.
"Who's scared? I'm just not used to it." Bei Er Duo was ruthless and determined, "Hurry up and buy a ticket."
While queuing up for tickets, Bei Er heard a parent not far away talking with her child.
The child said, "Mom, I want to play with that thing that goes up and down."
My mother said righteously: "You can't play on the jumping machine, it's too dangerous. There was once a girl who wore braids like you. When she was sitting on it, two braids were stuck by the machine, and her scalp was torn. There's blood all over it."
The child reached out and touched his braid, and clearly stated his position: "I don't want to play anymore."
"..." Bei Er Duo's heart was beating violently, and cold sweat had already broken out from his palms before he got up.
"It's too late for you to say you don't want to play." Ye Shu Wei said, "Don't be brave."
Bei Er Duo took a deep breath, thinking that he had come to this point, if he gave up, not only would Ye Shu Wei look down on him, but he would look down on himself.
When the jumping machine stopped in front of her and Bei Er Duo sat on it, she was trembling slightly. She buckled the seat belt twice but failed.
When preparing for the third time, Ye Shuwei's voice came from my ear: "Wait, I'll come."
He buckled her seat belt for her first, and then buckled his own.
The machine rose little by little, as if it was going up against the huge gravity. Bei Er lowered his head the whole time, only looking at his knees.
"Look to the left and right."
Bei Er Duo raised his head bluntly, and looked to the left and right. His field of vision was very wide, and he could almost overlook the entire playground.
"The scenery is nice." Compared to Bei Er Duo's panic, Ye Shu Wei was at ease on a high place, "It's just that the height is not good enough."
Finally at the apex, Bei Er's throat was tense, he didn't dare to glance around, and waited for the landing, but only ten seconds passed, and the huge monster didn't move.
"Huh? Is this machine not broken?" She lowered her eyes cautiously and looked down.
At the same time, after an alarm sounded unexpectedly, the machine plummeted rapidly.
In an instant, Bei Er Duo felt that her whole body was vacated, and she was falling continuously, as if she wanted to get rid of all the restraints desperately. She held on to the safety bar tightly, closed her eyes, her mind went blank, and she couldn't shout out even if she wanted to. , There is only one thought in my heart: die as soon as you die, and resign yourself to fate!
The machine came to a screeching halt.
Bei Er Duo opened his eyes suddenly, and asked aloud, "Is it on the ground now?"
A calm voice beside him said, "What's the hurry, it's only halfway there."
Before Bei Er Duo could understand what it meant, the machine went up again, and when she understood it, she couldn't help feeling uncomfortable again: "Is it going to go up to the top again?"
"Otherwise?" Ye Shu Wei looked at the distant scene, "Since it's here, it's so boring to let you get rid of it all at once."
"..."
Sure enough, the machine paused for a few seconds and then fell down again. Bei Er Duo seemed to be thrown out of a certain country again...
Then it stopped again, the machine's inertia rose, Bei Er Duo even wanted to die, and vented his voice: "Are you going to let me go down? I want to go down, I don't want to play with this damn thing again..."
While muttering to himself, the machine fell rapidly again, and Bei Eruduo lost his mind again.
She really shouldn't be brave and hide the fact that she is a fear of heights.
…
When Bei Er stepped on the ground again, Bei Er's steps were weak and he couldn't move at all.
Ye Shuwei took her to a rest chair opposite, after she sat down, he handed her a bottle of water.
Bei Er's face was still pale, he drank water without saying a word, and slowly returned to normal after a few minutes.
"Do you have a fear of heights?" Ye Shu Wei asked.
Bei Er Duo acquiesced and was ready to accept his contempt.
"Sit here and wait for me." After he finished speaking, he stood up and walked in the other direction.
Bei Er Duo sat quietly, closed his eyes, and stabilized his heartbeat until he smelled a faint smell of orange juice.
Ye Shuwei handed her the hot orange in his hand: "Drinking some hot ones will make you feel better."
"Thank you." Bei Er Duo was a little surprised.
"Eat something to replenish energy." He put the bag in the other hand beside her.
Bei Er Duo glanced at the transparent bag, which contained chocolate, mints and beef jerky.
"Thank you," she said again.
Ye Shuwei ignored her, took out his phone and started playing games, pretending to be waiting for her.
Bei Er Duo drank hot drinks and ate chocolate and felt much better.
Ye Shuwei's phone suddenly called, and Bei Er was a little surprised when he heard the sound. When did his phone's ringtone change to the song Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter? Exactly like her.
After Ye Shuwei finished talking on the phone, Bei Er Duo regained his energy, stood up, and suggested: "Since we're here, let's go play again."
"Are you sure you want to play again?"
"High altitude is not acceptable, flat ground is fine, how about we play bumper cars?"
"It's not that good." Ye Shu Wei remained expressionless.
"Then let's go for a walk." Bei Er said, "It's not bad to see the scenery."
Chat while walking. Oh, no, to be precise, Bei Er Duo said, Ye Shu Wei listened.
"I didn't have a fear of heights before. When I was eight years old, my school organized a mountain climbing trip. When I reached the top of the mountain, a few courageous students spontaneously went down another steep downhill road. Some teachers were afraid that they would go after them in an accident. They asked us to stay where we were, but after the teacher left, the students followed, and I had to go with the group. The road was really steep and narrow, and I walked very slowly. A male student behind me mischievously pushed me Hit me, and I fell."
Ye Shu Wei stopped and looked at her sideways: "And then?"
"Below is a bottomless slope. I slid down a long way and grabbed a vine desperately. I put my feet on a protruding momentum, barely fixed myself, and shouted for help. My classmates called the teacher for help." , The teacher walked ahead and didn't hear it, and they didn't dare to come down to help me, but fortunately there was a grandfather who came to the mountain to exercise behind, he was old but strong, and he grabbed me up immediately."
"I checked after I went up, and there was no trauma, but the pain was unbearable at night after I went back. I went to the hospital for an examination and found out that my ankle was broken."
"My mother went to the principal to comment on this, quarreled with the parent of the male classmate, kept calling me stupid after closing the door, and repeatedly said that there will be mountain climbing activities in the school in the future, and you say that you are afraid of heights and cannot participate, understand? ?”
"Afterwards I became afraid of heights."
After hearing this, Ye Shuwei said, "You're not afraid of heights, you just lost your sense of security because of that accident."
"What's the meaning?"
"When you were hanging there, the teacher didn't come to save you, and the classmates didn't dare to help. You were wronged and hurt, but you were criticized by your mother after returning home. As for the negative emotions that will be produced when looking down from a high place later, it is natural to have fear."
Bei Er gave an "oh" thoughtfully.
It seemed uncomfortable to be exposed in public, but he had a point, and she didn't want to deny it.
"Want to play with bumper cars?" Ye Shuwei asked suddenly.
Only then did Bei Er Duo realize that the place to play with bumper cars was just ahead.
"Don't you think bumper cars are childish?"
"There are also non-childish ways to play."
"ah?"
Half an hour later, Ye Shuwei finished playing as an adult, got off the bumper car with Bei Er Duo, and the little bullies who had been killed by him went to look for their parents with red eyes...
One of the little boys in red clothes ran over and stretched out his fist to Ye Shuwei, threatening: "Big man, don't be complacent, I will definitely win against you in ten years."
Bei Er smiled.
Ye Shu asked back suddenly: "What's your name? How old are you this year?"
"Yang Mingming is twelve years old."
"I remember." He said calmly, "Ten years later, I will wait for you here, and you can challenge me."
"..." Bei Er.
"It's a deal, I'll beat you to pieces!" Yang Mingming turned his head and left after speaking.
Bei Er Duo couldn't help the subtle emotions in his heart, and asked Ye Shuwei: "Ten years later, will you really come here to fight bumper cars with him?"
"Maybe."
"You want to go to the battlefield yourself?"
"If he's willing."
"..."
