Independent musician sapientdream's slow-paced and melancholy "promise" slowly sounded beside the pillow, and the white and hot sunlight seeped into a gap of light and shadow from outside the curtains, falling on the girl's face on the bed, like a cat's whiskers .She breathed evenly, her fair skin reflected the beauty of the sun, illuminating the equally beautiful snow-white neck and collarbone, her arms were hanging by the bed, the light penetrated the curtains and printed stripes on it, the fine fluff with spots Golden and beautiful white.

Su Xiaoqiang woke up. In her dream, she seemed to be floating on the warm ocean. The music took her up from the sea, over the golden clouds, over the sky written by the grand sun, and finally rose from the dream to reality. .The snow-white eyelashes trembled and opened, and she saw the boy she had met in the dream sitting on the chair beside the bed. Looking at a book on lap.

"Fortress Besieged", blue hard-shell cover, with a maze-like circle around the white title, and the author's name at the bottom.

The little celestial girl has never read this book, and she vaguely remembers some famous quotes and dialogues in it. For example, it said in it that there is no accident in the world, it is just the necessity of putting on makeup and wearing a mask.

"It also said that love is mostly unsuccessful, either because of the boredom of getting married, or the sorrow of not being married." Lin Nian put down the book, and he noticed that Su Xiaoqiang woke up, so he said, "Morning install."

"Good morning." Su Xiaoqiang said, and couldn't help but raised her arms to block the grand sunshine that hit the face after the boy opened the curtains.

When the white light turns from dazzling to soft and falls, the city emerges from the light, and the buildings with glass curtain walls reflect the fireworks in the world under the sun, and the clouds in the blue sky that seems to be washed by water.

Today's coastal city has a rare good weather. It seems that the ink and dullness that filled the sky yesterday were washed away by a rain, and flowed into the canal to the sewer.There should have been a blue sky and white clouds drawn on the white paper. In this kind of weather, even the seagulls strayed into the city are singing the praises of the youth of passing young people.

"The weather is fine today," Lin Nian said.

When he turned around, Su Xiaoqiang took her gaze away from the boy's side face, and some hypoglycemic brain circuits realized what time it was and where she was. There was no doubt that she was being realistic—because even in In her dream, she was also reluctant to have such an extravagant dream.

"Go wash up, I've prepared breakfast."

Lin Nian got up and walked out of the room. The blue book covered the chair, covering more than half of the pages. It seemed that the white pages of the book could be smelled in the sun. The air smelled of ink and the boy left behind. next taste.

It wasn't until the door closed that the girl came back to reality completely. She looked at the chair the boy had sat on and the book he had left behind. After a few seconds of recovery, she suddenly buried herself in the quilt, wrapping her hands around the quilt and slowly The cotton wool inside gathered around the face to wrap myself in warmth.

After a long while, when Lin Nian came into the room with breakfast, Su Xiaoqiang had already washed and sat on the bed. Because the clothes were soaked in the rain and did not dry thoroughly, Lin Nian took them away and hung them on the balcony when the sun came out. The temperature and light can dry in about half an hour, which is just the time for breakfast and chatting.

"Drink milk to warm up first." Lin Nian handed her a glass of warm milk.

Su Xiaoqiang took the milk obediently. If her nanny was lucky enough to see this scene, she would probably go to Lin Nian's house overnight to pack up fruits and gifts to learn from Lin Nian's family. Even if she was told to eat and had a hypoglycemia attack, she would suffer for a while. Although she apologized to the nanny very understandingly afterwards, the waking up anger at that time was not something ordinary people can handle.

"There are many options for breakfast in the hotel. I only took some fried eggs with bacon and cheese bread." Lin Nian put the dinner plate on the bedside table, picked up the book with a blue cover, and sat on the chair with his legs crossed, carefully He watched her eat carefully, and from time to time he picked up a tissue and handed it to her to indicate that there was something in his mouth.

There was only the sound of chewing food in the room, no one spoke, Lin Nian looked at her quietly, under the sunlight, the girl on the bed seemed to be transparent, melting in the bright sunlight, her fingers and skin were white It's red like an apple, and I don't know if it's from the sun, or if I accidentally stained it.

The alarm rang again, and 08:30 was displayed on the screen of the mobile phone. The song was still the same English song. It seemed that the little girl loved this song to a certain extent, because no matter how long it took to put the song on the alarm It will make people psychologically disgusted, unless she really likes this piece of music, for some reason, certain lyrics, no matter how many times she listens to it, she seems to be listening to herself, singing herself.

Lin Nian helped Su Xiaoqiang find the phone by the bed, turned off the alarm clock, and a screen saver was displayed on the screen. He glanced at it, and found that the little goddess was secretly looking at him while drinking milk, and noticed the look in his eyes. He quickly stared at the milk in the glass, and almost spit out a few bubbles.

"I didn't expect you to be so good at taking care of people." After drinking milk and breakfast, the tableware was piled aside, and the little angel who took the wet tissue to wipe the corners of her mouth and hands couldn't help but whispered.

"The more people are taken care of, the better they can take care of others." Lin Qing said in a voice. He looked at the lock screen wallpaper on the phone screen for a long time before turning off the phone. "When is the picture?"

"What? Oh. You said the lock screen wallpaper." Su Xiaoqiang couldn't recover at first, because according to her memory, every time she encountered such an embarrassing situation, the boy would skillfully avoid it. When people secretly breathe a sigh of relief, they feel a lot of loss, but in the end, more longing will surge from their hearts.Not refusing, often makes the crush have expectations, even if the other party has never said yes.

'"During the sports meeting in the first half of the second year of high school, you represented the boys in our class in the 5000-meter long-distance race."

"Oh, I remember."

Just a little reminder, Lin Nian turned from the memory album to that dusty corner, he can remember a lot of things, but he only thinks of those memories when he needs them.

For example, in that sports meeting, the girl side sent Chen Wenwen to play, and the president of the literature club was not bad in physical fitness. He gritted his teeth and ran a good score of No.3, while the boy side was planning to join Lu Mingfei at first. , It's a pity that this kid is strong on the outside, and he was a little out of breath during the warm-up. Lin Nian took the initiative to take over his task, and quickly left all the players behind when he went on the field. The others were still running the fifth lap By the time he had crossed the line.

When holding the trophy, one person holds it once. Lu Mingfei counts as a participation award. He holds the cup with Chen Wenwen for a photo as a souvenir. When Lin Nian holds the cup, Su Xiaoqiang joins in. It happens that someone who is bored stands on the high platform and throws it down Broken confetti, the scene was so festive that it looked like they had won the Olympic Games. Amid the booing, Su Xiaoqiang took out her mobile phone and took a selfie. Probably this was the only photo she and Lin Nian showed alone.

"The filming was pretty good." Lin Nian said, "Do you like me?"

God turns.

Who would have expected him to ask this question?Maybe it's because of the lock screen wallpaper?
no one knows.

Su Xiaoqiang's hand grabbing the quilt subconsciously grabbed the cotton in the quilt into a ball nervously. It was as if Lin Nian's problem had pinched her heart hard, and it was no longer the intentional or unintentional scratch.

If the probability of lightning hitting a tree is one in [-], then after [-] unintentional attempts, the lightning finally found a chance and split down the tree that had been waiting for him in the rainstorm, smashing the tree from it .

"I"

At the most critical moment, Su Xiaoqiang suddenly became dumb. She suffered from a slight lack of blood supply to the brain and felt a little dizzy.What the hell, she once laughed with the girls she played with. In the Middle Ages, the ladies always liked to corset their waists, and the blue satin corsets could squeeze the delicate flowers so hard that they couldn't breathe. A little bit of stimulation will faint.

That's why the nobles in the Middle Ages always liked to brag about their adventurous experience to the ladies, or the atmosphere of spending money like water when they were romantic. If their bravery can't make a few women faint, then this nobleman is unqualified and will be punished by himself. friends ridiculed.

Whenever this story was mentioned, Su Xiaoqiang and her friends would laugh, thinking it was unbelievable and absurd, but now the boy in front of her just said four simple words, and she was a little out of breath.

"Yes."

But she worked up the courage to say it anyway.

There is no reason to back down. If you like it, you like it openly. It is not an embarrassment. She can say that I raise him when the boy is ridiculed by his family, so now she can say this naturally
"I like you."

Lin Nian didn't say anything more. He turned his head and looked at the washed clean city outside the sun. His eyes were also very clean, without too many haze and worries. It's great to talk about love in this weather. Everyone's hearts and There is no dust on the tongue, and what comes out is the most straightforward and unadorned joy.

"Why?" he asked after a while.

"Is there a reason?" Su Xiaoqiang asked subconsciously.

"That's right." Lin Nian found himself asking a stupid question.

It may be the opportunity of a dispute at the beginning of school, or it may be a three-pointer hitting the basket on the basketball court, or it may be a ride on the track. There are too many reasons to like someone, and those fragmentary reasons seem to be divided into one Add granules of sugar to the water little by little, take a sip inadvertently, and then look at him, only feel the sweetness in your mouth, probably at this time, you will reflect on yourself, oh, so I like him.

"Haven't you thought about giving up?"

".Had."

She said it without confidence, she knew that she should toughen up and let the other party see her determination, but she really couldn't do it, she couldn't lie in front of this boy who represented all the good things she could imagine.

In fact, Su Xiaoqiang also has a lot of twists and turns in her heart, she is a girl who is not good at words, she is not Chen Wenwen, she can open her mind to the boy she likes.

Maybe she wanted to say, you are a new star in the eyes of the track and field department. You can run fast on the track, and I will chase after you, but you can’t catch up. You may fall or something every time you turn. When I fell down, I didn’t want to get up, but when I saw you running farther and farther, I couldn’t help cheering myself up, so I got up and continued to chase.After chasing round and round, her knees were broken and bleeding, but the distance was still not close. Everyone thought about giving up, but she still chased with stubborn temper.

Things like feelings are always like this, you are chasing someone's back on the runway, and there is also a person or a group of people chasing you behind you.Everyone couldn't catch up, and they didn't want to stop and wait for the people behind them, so they were stubborn and kept running with their heads down until they couldn't run anymore. After living an ordinary life, you may finally look back at the back that is drifting away, feeling lost.

But Su Xiaoqiang didn't want to compromise, even though the back in front of her threw her away so far that she couldn't see, she was also running around on the track, and the person chasing her gave up long ago, and she also ran alone, now Finally seeing the familiar figure from behind, how could he stop and let him go?
"Then will you give up?"

"will not."

This time she answered firmly.

"Okay." Lin Nian nodded after getting the answer.

Almost when Su Xiaoqiang thought she would receive the most ruthless rejection, a coin appeared in her sight. When she looked up, she saw Lin Nian stretching out his right hand in the sunlight, with a coin lying in his palm. coin.

"See clearly?" Lin Nian asked, "Coins."

Su Xiaoqiang froze for a moment, then nodded.

Lin Nian slowly clenched his fist and pinched the coin in his right hand, then stretched out his hands and placed them in front of Su Xiaoqiang.

The sun shone on his face through the balcony, he looked at Su Xiaoqiang and said seriously, "Guess which hand the coin is in."

Su Xiaoqiang was stunned, because this was a free question. Lin Nian held the coin in his right hand and then stretched out his left hand.
"Right hand."

Lin Nian opened his right hand, but there was nothing inside, and then he opened his left hand, and the coins lay there quietly.

"Is this magic?" Su Xiaoqiang asked.

"You can take it for granted that I cheated, so you missed it." Lin Nian nodded and admitted.

Su Xiaoqiang didn't understand what he meant. Lin Nian said that she cheated, but she didn't find any clues.

"Now you know the rules of the game." Lin Nian stretched out his hands again, the coin was in his left hand, "I will still cheat, and you can keep guessing, but I want to remind you in advance that it is almost impossible for you to play this game." Guess right, because I cheat every time, but you can guess once every time you see me."

"Okay." Su Xiaoqiang had no reason to refuse such an interesting game.

"You like me, and I won't persuade you to give up, because you don't seem like someone who will give up. As long as you know that there is no one else around me, you will never give up. It is very difficult for you to give up." Lin Nian looked into Su Xiaoqiang's eyes and said softly.

Su Xiaoqiang nodded silently, just like what Lin Nian said, if there is no one else around Lin Nian, she will always wait, even if he refuses, she will always wait, while waiting, thinking if he will change his mind, if he will appear in the Street corner, if he will like me. Sit under a tree, eat an if, peel another if.

"So I will give you a chance to guess the coin, but you have to promise me that before you guess the coin, you will live your life well, meet more people, and find more choices." Lin Nian said, "I will leave this After the city, don't try to come to Kassel to find me, don't hang yourself on a tree, you promised me that I will play this game with you."

"So what happens if I guess the coin correctly?"

"I'll date you."

The room is very quiet, and it seems that on such a beautiful day, you can hear the sunlight streaming slowly on the railing outside the window.

Wan Boqian looked at Lin Nian who was walking out of the room, and didn't say anything. She just waited for the boy to close the door, picked up the heavy long box beside him, and followed him to the door of the suite.

Pass through the corridor and enter the VIP elevator. The elevator door closes, and the lights above the head dance one by one.

No one spoke.

The silence was not broken until the elevator doors opened.

"I just eavesdropped outside the door." Wan Boqian said in a low voice.

"Yeah." Lin Nian nodded.

"Your word spirit is 'instant moment', right?"

"Ah."

"Then she will never win this game." Wan Boqian said softly.

Lin Nian stood at the entrance of the hotel. Outside, the blue Panamera parked quietly on the side of the road. In the sun, a boy wearing sunglasses stood by the car and waited for them as agreed.

"At the right time, she always wins a game," he said.

"It's better to reject her directly. Even if she is persistent and sad for a few months or half a year, she will find another boy when she is tired from crying." Wan Boqian shook her head. This game, as long as the boy is willing, it is impossible for the girl to guess the coin in her life.

"Everyone should have a chance, not the pain of half a year or even longer, no one should be treated like that." Lin Nian said.

"But does she really have a chance? This kind of thing is up to you, since you don't like her"

"Why?" Lin Nian turned around and asked Wan Boqian.

"Why?" Wan Boqian was stunned.

"Why are you so convinced that she will never win that game?" Lin Nian asked.

"Because you don't at all." Wan Boqian opened her mouth, but suddenly closed it.

Looking into the boy's eyes, she suddenly understood the meaning of the boy's words.

A beautiful girl who stands by your side to help you talk when you are excluded, rushes to your side to cheer for you when you win the championship, stands up for you when you are insulted, and stands by you when you celebrate your birthday. It's time to secretly stuff the DVD player you want. Can anyone really not be tempted in front of such a girl.

Water drips through stone, who can guarantee that he will not be so little hearted under the endless pursuit of a girl?Even if it is very small, as long as there is such a crack in the stone statue from the heavy rain, some rainwater can always flow into the closed heart of the stone statue.

But the stone statue can't speak, it has its own destiny, and it can only be a stone statue before the end of its destiny.

".I'm also a human being, and I have feelings. I didn't know why I couldn't accept her intentions before, but after you found me, I realized that I wanted to give her a chance, and I also gave myself a chance. There is still a long time ahead. , Too many things may have happened. We are still young, we haven’t met too many people, and our minds may all change, who can tell?” Lin Nian looked at the boy who was waiting for him outside the window and said softly Said, "It's not the time to talk about these things, at least it's not the time right now. There are more important things waiting for me to do. After those things are done, if she has someone she likes, I will leave, but If she and I are still the same, what about another coin toss and let her win?"

"En." Wan Boqian nodded after being silent for a long time.

After taking the heavy weapon box with the half-decayed World Tree school badge in Wan Boqian's hands, the boy opened the door and walked out, submerged in the midsummer sun.
