The Sweet Love - C210
Cherish the present.
“I used to be afraid that you would be hurt by others after giving out your feelings, just like how I was back then. However, right now, I feel that rather than cowering and not daring to move forward, it’s better to bravely move forward and step forward. Even if the result later on isn’t that great, at least there won’t be any regrets. For we never know which will come first, tomorrow and the accident, and we will not deny that one day, before we open our eyes, the accident will come crashing down, and we will be forced to sleep in those dreams, and perhaps we will never wake up again if we close them. So if you really want to do something, you have to do it boldly and don’t leave any regrets. ”
After thinking this through, he felt his entire being relax a bit. He smiled and said to Hong Yun, “I understand. Thank you.”
I nodded, knowing.
I suddenly had a direction in my heart. Indeed, I had that good impression of Jin Zicheng, but because of the cowardice in my heart, I did not dare to confirm this feeling, but what Hong Yun said today allowed me to gather my courage once again. I could not help but ask myself, was the things that I meant really that important?
That’s right, a person might be injured, but if he didn’t want to try, then why was he so easily certain?
With that in mind, I fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, Red Cloud woke up early. After all, she had to go to the train. Her actions woke me up too, as I was sleeping soundly. I sat up and rubbed my eyes.
Hong Yun nodded and said, “That’s right. I originally thought that we would be staying here for a week or so. I never thought that things would go so smoothly. There’s nothing else to do here. I might as well leave early.”
After saying that, she stood up and tidied up the few pieces of clothing on the bed. Other than that, there was nothing else. She waved at me and said, “Then I’ll be leaving first. Don’t get up and send me off. It’s still early. You should sleep for a while more.”
So I lay on the bed and watched as she dragged her suitcase, slowly opened the door, waved to me, closed the door, and left.
The entire room fell into silence. I sat up in a daze and slowly tidied myself up. Looking at my pale face in the mirror, I splashed some water on my face before finally recovering my composure.
I went downstairs to eat breakfast. Although this small town wasn’t very bustling and there weren’t that many people, it was unexpectedly lively at this time. There were quite a few aunties who were pulling their granddaughters and grandchildren together to buy groceries.
And I’m standing here in the middle, an individual, like a weirdo cut off from the outside world.
After I sat down at the breakfast shop, the boss came over and greeted me. “You don’t look familiar. You’re not one of us, right?”
I looked up and smiled. “Yeah, I’m here to find a friend.”
The boss enthusiastically said: “You youngsters really have energy. Being as old as me, if I wanted to see those old friends of yours, I wouldn’t even be able to travel far! “Miss, what do you want to eat? I’ll bring it to you right now!”
I ordered a bowl of soy milk and two yuan of youtiao. After a while, the boss enthusiastically brought it over and placed it on my table. I even intentionally spared one more for you. If that’s not enough, then buy more! ”
I thanked him with a smile, and the boss went to greet the other guests.
In my heart, I silently put a label on this town, passion.
After eating breakfast, I still didn’t receive a phone call. I didn’t want to walk alone on this road, so I returned to the hotel. I held my phone and played around in boredom. Perhaps I didn’t even realize that I had been waiting for his call.
When it was almost 11, he finally received a call from Jin Zicheng. As soon as I picked it up, I heard his low voice say, “Where are you now?”
I said, “I’m at the West Side Inn right now. Have you arrived? “How about I pack my stuff and head down?”
Jin Zicheng agreed and hung up the phone. I felt that my mood immediately became cheerful, so I quickly packed up my things and went to the front desk to check out.
When I pushed open the door, Jin Zicheng’s car was already at the entrance. I quickly walked over, placed my luggage on the back seat and sat on the passenger seat.
I turned my head to look at Jin Zicheng, who was also looking at me, and just like that, we looked at each other. I felt that there was a faint black and blue in his eyes, and couldn’t help but ask: “Did you not rest well?”
Jin Zicheng’s eyes were filled with deep meaning. He looked at me deeply, turned his head, and said: “No.”
I nodded my head. I knew that asking any further questions would be futile. Thus, I gave up on that question and asked, “Are you free these past few days?”
Jin Zicheng turned back and looked at me, as though he had his doubts, but he still said: “I do, and will be free in the next few days.”
I mustered my courage and forcefully suppressed my inner turmoil. I said carefully, “Then, what about you … Can you accompany me back to my hometown? ”
After saying this sentence, I had already anticipated many of the endings and might be rejected. After all, this matter is very boring and could possibly be left ununderstood, but at least I complied with my own heart and said what I wanted to say.
