Before dawn, the traffic flow on the Zhijiang Bridge was very small, and it took a long time for one vehicle to pass.
Lin Yi and Gu Caiwei walked slowly towards the middle of the bridge in a leisurely manner, not in a hurry to catch up with other students.
This situation, the feeling that there is only you and me in the world makes them naturally get closer to each other.
"Lin Yi."
"Um?"
"Do you still feel pain?"
"Why does it still hurt? Are you talking about those gangsters before? Didn't you see them being subdued by me in two or three times? Such little thieves can't hurt me."
"Lin Yi, do you think being with me will make you tired?"
"Why do you think so?"
"I discovered that ever since that time with Qi Yiming, it seems that you have been protecting me. But will this put a lot of pressure on you?"
Lin Yi found that her tone at this moment was particularly sincere, so he said in the most sincere way:
"First of all, protecting you is the proudest and most fulfilling thing I have ever done in my life. This is not pressure but happiness. Thank you for giving me this opportunity."
"Secondly,"
He grabbed Gu Caiwei's hand and pressed it on his left chest, letting her feel her heartbeat: "You have been working hard to protect my place, which makes me feel particularly lucky."
Gu Caiwei felt a special kind of warmth enveloped her whole body.
The most beautiful experience in love is not to be touched by the other person's dedication, but to be recognized, cherished and remembered for your wholehearted dedication.
"But, in order to protect me, you can't even tell others about our relationship. Maybe we will still be able to get along like this for a long time in the future."
"Last night, I wanted to tell everyone loudly how much I like you, but I am no longer an impulsive little girl."
"I want to continue along the path described by Peng Yuchen until I fulfill your expectations of me and my own dreams."
"Because I know that only in that way can I protect you and my mother."
"Lin Yi, are you willing to stay with me until that day?"
Strictly speaking, Gu is not a girl without self-confidence. She has always known how eye-catching she is since she was a child.
Because you care, you worry about gains and losses.
Lin Yi didn't expect that this little sun, who always had a smile in his eyes, had such serious thoughts.
"Of course, I'm pretty sure that day will definitely come, and I'm happy to make an appointment with you. Then we'll come back to see today's scenery together."
He didn't deliberately emphasize "I don't need your protection". He thought it was good to work together with the desire to protect each other.
"Indeed, we don't seem to get along as boyfriend and girlfriend in front of anyone, but I won't doubt your intentions because of this, and I hope you will be the same."
"Of course I believe you."
Gu Caiwei did not hesitate: "Thank you Lin Yi, thank you for everything you have done for me, which makes me more confident to pursue what I want to pursue."
"That's my honor."
Just when he thought this topic could be brought to an end for now, he heard something unexpected again.
"One more thing, Lin Yi."
"I asked you before what your dream is, but you seem to have not thought about it yet. But no matter what it is, I will fully support you."
Lin Yi explained: "As I have said before, I am used to hiding my goals in my heart, but not to secretly work hard and surprise everyone. I just feel that there is no need to explain to irrelevant people."
"If you want to know, of course I'm willing to share it with you."
"No, I don't want to ask about this."
Gu Caiwei shook her head: "Lin Yi, do you know? Sometimes you are right next to me, but I feel that you are far away from me."
"You often made fun of my grades, but I wasn't really angry because you were very close to me at that time."
"But sometimes you don't know what you are thinking of, and you will suddenly become distracted, and then become very silent and look very..."
She thought for a while: "Tired."
"You seem to have a lot of secrets in your heart. I don't know why you never share them, but at least you don't have to keep your emotions bottled up in your heart."
"Lin Yi, although I still often need your encouragement, occasionally I give you a shoulder to lean on."
"In that case, I will be happy that I am needed by you too."
The biggest secret that Lin Yi cannot share is, of course, rebirth, which cannot be explained by science.
He thought that today happened to be June 10th, the last day of two years since his "return", and he felt more and more that the other twelve years were just a big dream.
He was also vaguely afraid, afraid that this part of his life was just a figment of his imagination, and that he would find himself lying in a hospital ward when he woke up tomorrow.
Zhuang Zhou dreamed of butterflies, butterflies dreamed of Zhuang Zhou, who can tell clearly?
Although he had been very careful not to reveal such complicated feelings in front of Gu Caiwei, she still captured them.
It seemed like it was time to make a break. Of course he knew that there was no point in dwelling on this.
Fuck past and present lives.
I am just me, I am Lin Yi.
Starting today, say goodbye to your whole life.
The moment he really made up his mind, he felt more relaxed than ever before, and the corners of his mouth naturally opened in a slightly exaggerated arc.
He nodded towards Gu Caiwei: "Of course, you have always been needed by me, and you will be needed even more in the future. Please be prepared."
"Xiaowei, can I call you that from now on?"
Gu Caiwei tilted her head and thought for a moment. In the past, only her family members called her that. Even Jiaqi was just called Caiwei.
However, Lin Yi is also my dearest person.
She nodded shyly.
This uninterrupted exchange of heartfelt conversations made both of them smile.
They continued to walk toward the middle of the bridge. They didn't know how long they walked or which section they reached. Gu Caiwei suddenly pointed to the horizon excitedly and shouted:
"Look, the sun is rising!"
Lin Yi looked around and saw a rising sun slowly rising from the horizon. Golden glow came from a distance, covering the clouds in the sky and the river on the ground.
When the red sun rises, its path shines brightly.
"So beautiful." Gu Caiwei murmured to herself.
Lin Yi turned around and looked at her, and found that the girl's profile looked extremely dreamy under the morning glow, her dark eyes were surprisingly bright, and her bright red lips were particularly attractive.
Gu Caiwei quickly noticed Lin Yi's gaze. After looking at him, she saw the beating flame in his eyes. She lowered her head as if she was electrocuted and closed her eyes silently. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly.
She pursed her lower lip nervously, but Lin Yi had already invaded her decisively.
Soft and smooth, with a hint of her unique sweet fragrance.
Reason had already left Lin Yi's mind. He held the back of her head with one hand and held her waist with the other.
Gu Caiwei cooperated very awkwardly, her hands had already wrapped around Lin Yi's neck at some point, and she gradually learned to respond clumsily.
The two young people kissed passionately under the dawn, forgetting the time and where they were, leaving only each other's breath and taste in the world.
Indescribably wonderful.
I don't know how long it took, but Lin Yi, who was still unfinished, took the initiative to part his lips. He turned around and approached the railing of the bridge with a guilty conscience, and said in a subtle way:
"Look, it's dawn."
Perhaps due to lack of oxygen, the blush on Gu Caiwei's cheeks has not completely faded away, and the water in her eyes is enough to melt everything in the world.
They leaned on the railing and looked into the distance, each calming down their unprecedented heartbeats.
The sunrise was over, and soon Zhang Jiaqi called and asked them to meet up, so the two of them walked back in the direction they came from.
"Lin Yi."
"Um?"
"Nothing, hehe."
After a while.
"Lin Yi."
This time he learned the lesson and took the hand he was holding and put it to his mouth and kissed it.
"Hahaha!"
At this moment, all Gu Caiwei's worries about gains and losses disappeared, and she believed from the bottom of her heart that she and Lin Yi would hold hands until the end of the world.
