The sun rises to the middle of the sky, and then slowly sets towards the west.
Chu Xiaochen sat on the steps, as quiet as a sculpture.
Finally, a dark blue car slowly drove over.
Luo Jun turned the car in and caught the figure outside his door from the corner of his eye. He slowly turned his face.
I saw Chu Xiaochen sitting on the steps of his house, staring intently at the green space in front of the door.
The west-slanting curtain light reflected on her body, and the golden-orange sunlight coated her whole body with a layer of gold powder, as if her whole body was emitting light.
He was stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his lips slowly raised, revealing a smile that was brighter and warmer than the sun.
After stopping the car and pushing open the door, Luo Jun slowly stretched his legs out and walked toward her step by step.
On the steps, Chu Xiaochen also saw him. As he walked over, she slowly stood up.
After sitting for too long, her legs were a little numb, but now she didn't care about it at all.
She just looked at him, watching him walk over step by step and stop on the steps in front of her.
Stopping in front of her, Luo Jun looked straight at Chu Xiaochen, who was standing a step higher than him.
Don't ask or say anything, just look at her.
There was faint sound of music coming from the unlocked car door, and a man's mellow voice was singing slowly.
"...
Will love be tortured?
But I don’t admit saying that
Destined to wait for you, I am enough
So you can be happier if you rest assured
When you say to me one day
I'll still be waiting here
…”
(Eason Chan's "Waiting for You to Love Me")
Chu Xiaochen looked at the face of the man in front of her and took a gentle breath.
"Luo Jun..." She hadn't spoken or drank water for so long, her lips and tongue were a little dry, and these two words also sounded a bit astringent. She refused to purse her lips, and she used all her strength to speak, "I love you!"
He smiled happily and contentedly, then stretched out his arms and hugged her tightly.
After waiting for her for so long, I finally got her answer.
Hugging him instead, Chu Xiaochen felt her eyes were sore.
"I'm sorry, Luo Jun... I kept you waiting for so long."
Holding her body, Luo Jun gently stroked her hair with his palms, "I should be the one to say this. If I had known you were waiting for me here, I... wouldn't have had to make several turns on the Third Ring Road.
It’s hours.”
In fact, Luo Jun had already returned to Beijing at noon, but he was afraid that he would not see her when he came back, so he never came back.
I drove the car on the Third Ring Road for several hours before gritting my teeth and driving back.
Chu Xiaochen's heart suddenly hurt.
She never would have thought that he would be so unsure of himself in love.
Maybe it was her who responded too little to him?
"fool!"
Whispering two words, her tears overflowed on his neck.
He didn't speak, he just tightened his arms and hugged her tighter.
The car was still parked not far away, and the music continued inside the door.
"Waiting for you to love me, waiting for you to love me
Even just once is enough
Waiting for you to love me, waiting for you to love me
Maybe it only takes one time to last forever
…”
The two hugged quietly.
That song has been playing in the car, repeating it back and forth.
The light of the setting sun cast over and shone on the two figures embracing each other. The embrace continued, and the shadows became one.
I can't tell which one is you and which one is me.
for a long time.
Luo Jun then spoke softly, "How long have you been waiting?"
"I'll be here in the morning." Chu Xiaochen replied softly.
