One hundred and twenty one. Fat sheep to be slaughtered
Ye Wan took Chu Yun to the park in the community. Chu Yun casually lit a cigarette and sat on the swing pulled by the steel cable.
For a while, there was only a slight coolness in the evening breeze, and no one spoke.
The butt of the cigarette burned red, Chu Yun took it off, flicked the ashes, and blew out a puff of smoke.
"It's been so many years." Chu Yun finally said this. He glanced at Ye Wan's side face hidden by the light, turned around, and put the cigarette holder in his mouth: "You are about to get married."
"Fortunately the groom is not you."
"Yes, fortunately the groom is not me." Chu Yun smiled and nodded.
"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Ye Wan, who was sitting on another swing, turned to look at Chu Yun. How many years have passed? It's long. It's several springs and autumns, thousands of days and nights, but it's short.
It was also short. Back then, she was standing at such a close distance and watched him smoking silently.
"Congratulations?"
"That's not the sentence." Ye Wan dragged his cheeks and thought for a moment: "Of course this sentence also counts, but there is another sentence that I want to hear you say to me personally."
"Shall we elope?" Chu Yun asked with a smile.
"Okay." Ye Wan also smiled.
"The groom will probably cry after hearing this, right?" Chu Yun stood up from the swing and took two steps in place.
Ye Wan raised his head and looked at the moon in the sky, gently swinging the swing with his toes: "Yes, Liu Cheng will definitely cry, and then chase him all the way..."
"So you still don't want it?"
"Um."
Ye Wan's toes finally left the ground and swayed with the wind. Chu Yun looked at her quietly.
After a while, the swing stabilized.
"Chu Yun, do you still remember when we dated?"
Chu Yun looked at the pedestrians passing by in the distance, lowered his head and flicked the ashes from his cigarette: "Freshman year."
"Do you still remember how we started dating?" Ye Wan asked.
Chu Yun looked back at her and was silent for a moment. When he bit the cigarette holder again, he just shook his head: "I can't remember anymore...what about you?"
"Yeah, I forgot about it too." Ye Wan sighed and smiled, "Do you know what I always wanted to say to you?"
"say what?"
"Chu Yun, you are a bastard!"
Chu Yun was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Ye Wan and found that she was smiling, so Chu Yun also laughed.
"I don't understand whether you are scolding me or not?"
"It's just because you don't understand that you deserve to be scolded!"
"Oh, I humbly ask for advice so that I can make corrections next time." Chu Yun said humbly.
"Let's not talk about dating anymore, let's talk about breaking up. You still remember this, right?"
"Remember."
"You know, I've been waiting for you for a full year for this."
Chu Yun held the cigarette in his mouth without moving. After a while, he slowly put down his hand, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out: "Really?"
He turned his head and found that Ye Wan was still smiling, but his eyes were shining more and more, as if they were covered with a layer of reflection from the mist.
"Do you know why you fucked up?"
"I thought...well, you were right."
"You know, I said to myself at that time, if you hold my hand and beg me not to leave, even if my parents urge me to go back, I will rebel just once and follow you, but you didn't say anything. Later
, I returned to Shandong, and I told myself, if you come after me, then even if you don’t say anything, I will go with you... But one year will pass, and another three years will pass - "
"I'm sorry." Chu Yun said.
"This is what you owe me. I have been waiting for this sentence for a long time, and I finally waited for it today. Therefore, I can finally make up my mind to marry another person who likes me tomorrow."
"..."
After a short moment of silence, Chu Yun did not deliberately look at Ye Wan, letting the moonlight melt the silence lightly.
"I'm talking about Chu Yun, can you tell me something honestly?"
"What words?"
"Have you truly loved me?"
"..." Chu Yun took out another cigarette and held it in his mouth: "I don't understand what you mean by this."
"You obviously know that." Ye Wan snatched the cigarette from Chu Yun's mouth, put it into his own mouth, and made a ignition gesture to Chu Yun.
"When did you learn..."
"Occasionally when I'm upset. I don't have any craving for cigarettes. I don't usually need this stuff."
Chu Yun took out a lighter, lit a cigarette for her, and took out another one himself: "So, I made you upset?"
"I've been worried about you for a long time. Does today count as slicing my sword to cut off my love?" Ye Wan asked with a smile.
Chu Yun also laughed.
"I think the three years I spent with you were actually quite happy."
"Yeah, I'm very happy." Ye Wan also nodded in agreement.
"I liked you."
"Yeah..."
"Ye Wan, I..."
"Stop talking, let me be quiet for a while."
Chu Yun stopped talking and quietly waited for the passage of time.
After a while, a musical ringtone rang, and Chu Yun knew it was not his. It was obvious that there was someone present who would go out with a mobile phone.
"Ah, Liu Cheng is looking for us."
"The bride's old sweetheart ran away with the bride alone. Anyone would be nervous, right?"
"Are you willing to joke around?" Ye Wan gave Chu Yun an angry look.
Chu Yun made a gesture to please you.
Ye Wan pressed down the phone: "Don't answer!"
Chu Yun was just about to say that this was inappropriate, but his cell phone rang immediately after Ye Wandi. When he saw it, it was Lin Yatou.
"Where are you?"
Lin Ruoxi's usual brief style was adhered to on the phone, but how should Chu Yun describe the current situation.
He thought for a while: "I eloped with the bride."
Ye Wan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Chu Yun and laughed. Chu Yun quickly moved the phone away, because the voice on Lin Yatou's phone was almost violent.
When the storm subsided, Chu Yun quickly confessed and leniently said: "You're just kidding, I'm hanging out with the bride to enjoy the breeze and chat and reminisce about old times."
"You're going to die. Tell me where you are now, or I'll call the police and accuse you of kidnapping the bride!"
Chu Yun glanced back at Ye Wan and found that she was almost laughing: "This is the park in the community. We are all adults. We will not become missing people for no reason. We will be back soon."
Chu Yun quickly hung up the phone before Lin Yatou could roar again.
"Who is this girl? She is very powerful. It seems that Young Master Chu is no match for her?"
"Stop talking, sister."
"You have a fart sister, even if you do have one, she is the kind of person you love as your concubine."
"Stop talking nonsense, okay? How old am I and how old is she? Can we join in?" Chu Yun shook his head.
"Oh, hurry up, don't tell me that you really have an affair."
"Really not." Chu Yun said in a long voice, already smiling bitterly.
"Okay, I believe you this time," Ye Wan took another puff on the cigarette. The cigarette was only half burned before she threw it away. "Chu Yun, I want to give you one last word, for all our years."
"What?"
"Women are the creatures that can least stand the passage of time..."
"?"
Ye Wan had already stood up from the swing: "So, don't let every woman who likes you end up with only emptiness and regret."
"..."
"Give Zhen Yan a chance." Ye Wan finally turned around and smiled. Chu Yun could only see her back and the figure looking around blankly under the light not far away.
