June, graduation season.
Lin Zheng temporarily suspended her internship and went back to school to concentrate on preparing for her defense.
On the day of the school-level graduation ceremony, Lin Zheng spoke on stage as an outstanding graduate representative, and the whole process was unscripted.
Standing on the stage, she calmly thanked her parents, her teacher, this campus, and the person who made her outstanding.
Who this person is is unknown, as if, it goes without saying.
After the ceremony was over, Lin Zheng followed the students out of the auditorium.
After today, she no longer has the right to be arbitrary with her life.
Say sad, a little bit.
However, there will be a different kind of beauty in the new beginning, let's go and see.
"We went to take a photo, probably the last time we took a photo together in this life." The roommate said with emotion.
Lin Zheng retorted, "There are four people in our dormitory. The three of you entered the same unit, and you are all next door to me. Isn't meeting just a phone call?" As soon as he looked up, all words were stuck in his throat.
On the square in front of the auditorium, Feng Hai'an, Qin Youheng, Shi Qi, Song Anshu, Yu Chuanbai and their parents all came, even Xu Zhi was there, and the momentum was quite majestic.
Shi Qi was the first to see Lin Zheng, she ran over quickly, smiled and plucked the tassels drooping on the side of Lin Zheng's face and said, "Zheng'er, congratulations on graduation."
Lin Zheng looked sideways at Feng Haian and the others behind him, feeling hot in his heart, "Why are there so many people here?"
"Of course you have to come after you graduate." Shi Qi knew Lin Zheng's roommates, and after greeting them warmly, she said confidently, "I'm not welcome, Zheng'er is ours today, I will first Take it away."
"No way." The roommates wailed for a while, without any malice, and let them go away with a few bad words.
Shi Qi pulled Lin Zheng to the few people lined up and said: "If you have any blessings, you should say it as soon as possible, so as not to delay the main event later."
"The highlight?" Lin Zheng wondered, "What else?"
Shi Qi stood mysteriously and blinked, not knowing what to say.
Lin Zheng scratched his head speechlessly, without any clue.
In her heart, no matter how important the event is, it can't compare to Gu Nanzhi.
It's a pity that she was busy with the students' junior high school exams, so she couldn't leave.
Lin Zheng raised his lips and smiled, hiding all his disappointment in his heart, "Just say what you have to say, I'm ready."
When the words fell, Feng Haian was the first to step forward, "Zheng'er, no matter how old you are, no matter how capable you are, you are still a child who needs to be loved in the eyes of your mother. In the future, if you have any unhappy things, you can come back to find your mother at any time, and your mother will not be there anywhere." Go, I'll be waiting for you at home."
The second one is Qin Youheng, he said: "This is only the second year, I am not qualified to say a lot of things, but I hope you remember one sentence - in your lifetime, I will unconditionally agree to any request you have, as long as you are willing to speak."
The third Song Anshu, he just said, "We have a chance to go back to high school together."
the fourth…
Those who loved her sent sincere blessings one by one, Lin Zheng accepted it wholeheartedly, and gave the warmest response with the brightest smile under the sun.
"Next, let's invite the last heavyweight guest to appear on the stage." Shi Qi clenched his fists and announced by placing it near his mouth like a microphone.
Lin Zheng was confused by her, "Who else is there?" Lin Zheng stood on tiptoe and stretched his neck to look behind Song Anshu and Yu Chuanbai who were blocking the way.
The two looked at each other and smiled, turning sideways and backing away in different directions.
Lin Zheng's sight gradually widened as they retreated.
Seeing the people hiding behind them clearly, Lin Zheng tilted her head and smiled, the scorching sun scorched her tears.
Gu Nanzhi hugged the flowers, walked up to Lin Zheng step by step under everyone's gaze, and said with a smile: "Zhenger, happy graduation."
Lin Zheng couldn't control her tears, and asked her crying and laughing, "Didn't you say you won't come back? Lied to me."
"I want to surprise you." Gu Nanzhi brought the fiery red rose to Lin Zheng, looked into her tearful eyes and said, "From the time you entered school to the time you graduated, I only dared to stand far away on every important occasion before." This is the last and most important time, if I am absent, I will never feel at ease in my life."
Lin Zheng hugged the flower, the ring between her fingers glowed brightly, "Thank you." Thank you for always being so thoughtful, thank you for giving me the most happy ending.
"The flowers are here, and the people are here. Next, shouldn't it be time for a kiss?" Shi Qi held up the phone to record the video, fearing that the world would not be chaotic and said, but unfortunately, there are people around, and seeing it is not overwhelming.
Lin Zheng was so angry that he kicked Shi Qi, and said fiercely: "Stop talking!"
Shi Qi quickly jumped away, brought the camera closer to Lin Zheng, and continued to fan the flames, "Come, see our shy classmate Lin Zhenger."
"Why are you so annoying now, stop taking pictures." Lin Zheng grabbed Shiqi's cell phone with one hand, restricted his movements, not only failed to grab it, but almost tripped himself.
Gu Nanzhi quickly supported someone from behind, and then looked at the lens.
This once-in-a-lifetime moment should be properly recorded.
Gu Nanzhi supported Lin Zheng's waist with one hand, and walked around the back of her neck with the other hand, holding her side face and turning to him, bowed his head and kissed her before she could respond.
A sudden heartbeat.
The golden light faintly faded between the lips, engraved as eternity.
——
Later, Lin Zheng became a tool man, and was taken in turns to take pictures.
At the back of the photo, she laughed so hard that the corners of her mouth twitched, her expression stiffened.
Finally, when it was over, Lin Zheng was about to go home and sleep, but saw the squad leader in the group announcing that they would have dinner at night, and at the end he let go of a dog's head, and said cruelly: "As long as you have breath, you must come. Otherwise, I will serve you with a dog's head!"
Lin Zheng groaned on Gu Nanzhi's shoulder in desperation, "Can't give people a chance to breathe?"
Gu Nanzhi was looking at the photos taken in the afternoon, and did not raise his head when he heard the words, "Life is a journey that cannot be turned back. After this meal, many of you will never see each other again in your life, and you may forget their love." appearance, but you will definitely remember who cried sadly on the day of parting. In the future, you will never meet such a pure person again."
Gu Nanzhi's words were full of "parting" that Lin Zheng hadn't had time to think about before, but now that she suddenly said it directly, the sadness in Lin Zheng's heart finally began to wreak havoc.
"What if I cry too?" Lin Zheng asked sullenly. In essence, she is a person who doesn't like parting.
Gu Nanzhi turned off the camera, and looked at the lotus flowers blooming in the lake with her, "I will wait for you outside tonight, if you want to cry, come out to me, and go back when you cry enough."
"Zhizhi..."
"I haven't finished yet." Gu Nanzhi interrupted Lin Zheng, she looked away, held Lin Zheng's hand tightly, and said each word very slowly, "This is the last time, there will be no next time." Unless life and death.
Lin Zheng took Gu Nanzhi's arm with a smile, leaned on her shoulder and murmured, "Okay, the last time, only in front of you."
——
At 7 o'clock in the evening, 32 people from Lin Zheng's class appeared on time in the box of the most "high-end" restaurant on the edge of the university town.
The squad leader who has never sung much is like a different person, dominating the mic and singing sad tunes.
Someone couldn't take it anymore, a peanut hit him right on the back of the head.
The class monitor became angry with embarrassment, "You haven't graduated yet, so you plan to rebel?" Mai Fangfang's roar made people's hearts tremble.
However, after such a fuss, the squad leader lost his mood and continued to be sad, and sat back on his exclusive throne and started drinking.
On the alcohol, the monitor suddenly wiped away his tears, "It's too hard to be single for four years, bang!" The monitor slapped the table, frightening everyone at the table into a neat line, and they all shrank their necks, "Although our school doesn't officially It’s such a superficial activity to choose the school belle, but! Lin Zheng is talented and good-looking, and can play the piano, isn’t this enough to be the school belle?!”
The topic was suddenly pulled behind Lin Zheng, she was stunned for two seconds, and immediately cleared herself up, "I'm ashamed, and I don't want to participate, thank you."
The monitor glared at her, like an old father who was worried about her, "We are going to part ways soon, tell me honestly, everything you said at the orientation party the year you entered the school is true?"
"Huh?" Lin Zheng thought for a while, and was quite impressed.
When entering the school as a freshman, the first thing to do is military training. Tall, short, fat and thin people are stuffed together for nearly 20 days, until they get the same skin color.
Lin Zheng is also strange, no matter how she tans, she is a few degrees fairer than others, coupled with her outstanding height and appearance, she was soon stuffed with gifts by boys from several colleges near and far.
Rejecting people is a technical job. Lin Zheng felt that he was inexperienced, and was afraid that if he did not reject people enough, something would go wrong, so he simply confessed his love in public at the new year party in the near future, so as to avoid future troubles.
The object of confession is Gu Nanzhi.
Even though, at that time, Lin Zheng knew in her heart that they were already people from two worlds...
What did she say then?
Lin Zheng leaned against the back of the chair, tapping on the Bluetooth headset that he bought specially with his fingertips, "Let's confess this, it's only once in a lifetime, do you think it's true or not?"
"No way." The squad leader was terrified, "Which dynasty are you from? People get divorced when they get married. You confessed your love only once?"
"Strange?" Lin Zheng frowned, pretending to be puzzled, "I've planned to like her all my life, and coincidentally, she just happened to like me too, so, do I need a second time?"
The squad leader understood, "I don't need it, but having said that, you were young, you weren't even eighteen at the time, so who is so unrestrained to fall in love with an underage kid? Classmate?"
Lin Zheng shook her head, "No, um..." She deliberately dragged her voice to whet everyone's appetites, and ended up with only one sentence, "Stay farther than your classmates."
The squad leader was almost caught off guard by this answer, and he ran on her speechlessly, "Can you say something true and useful? It's not too tiring after four years of selling a trick."
"That's right." Someone suddenly interjected, "Even if you don't bother to be the belle of the school, you're still the belle of our class, right? It's just cheap for outsiders, and I don't know if this person looks like a human or a ghost. Tell me, who can swallow this tone?" go down?"
"It's useful if you can't swallow it?" Lin Zheng's head replied ruthlessly, "A person who is like a ghost must be several times stronger than you. Don't be convinced, hey, it's too much to do it."
The head of the house successfully ignited the smoke of the battlefield with a word.
Lin Zheng just watched the excitement, and had no intention of helping at all.
Enough of the trouble, the head of the house sat back, panting and said: "Why don't you call me over and show everyone? The people you can like are definitely not bad, so let's take it as an opportunity to show kindness and show them the difference."
What the head of the house said meant that Lin Zheng couldn't get off the stage, so she knocked on the earphone in desperation, lowered her voice, and said into the microphone: "Did you hear that? Do you want to come up?"
"I'll go!" Lin Zheng's behavior angered the crowd, and the squad leader pointed at her angrily and yelled, "Your approach is too unethical, the enemy is in the dark, we are all in the open, and you are in Cao Cao For the 'little traitor' whose heart is in Han, we have no chance of winning anywhere."
Lin Zheng raised his head indifferently, "The enemy is in the clear, so you have a good chance of winning."
"..." The squad leader burst into tears, the reality was like running naked, leaving no room for his imagination at all.
Gu Nanzhi was sitting in the car all the time, when he heard what Lin Zheng said, he asked back, "Do you want me to go?"
Lin Zheng lowered her head, biting the rim of a glass full of wine, and said in a low voice, "I want to." I want to make you public and make everyone envious.
Gu Nanzhi did not hesitate, "Okay."
After the call ended, Lin Zheng drank the cold beer in the glass in one gulp, stood up and said, "She confessed, I'll go out and pick it up."
Before anyone could speak, Lin Zheng had pushed aside the stool and walked out.
Not far away, she could vaguely hear the squad leader's "heart-piercing" sigh, "I can't control it, I can't control it anymore, hey, my elbow is already folded outside."
Lin Zheng is funny. I used to think that the people in his class were not serious, but now that I am about to leave, I suddenly realized that all the 'not serious' on them are precious memories of youth.
——
Lin Zheng walked to the stairs and bumped into Gu Nanzhi who was coming towards her. The neckline of her shirt was wet and see through.
"What's going on?" Lin Zheng quickly walked two steps over and asked.
Gu Nanzhi tugged at his clothes and shook, "There were so many people at dinner time, the waiter didn't see the way clearly, so he spilled water on me."
"Hot?" Lin Zheng squeezed a piece of tea from her clothes, with an ugly expression, "Is it hot?"
Gu Nanzhi shook his head with a smile, "No, the tea in summer is cold in advance, not much temperature."
Lin Zheng still didn't believe it, and pulled her straight to the bathroom on the second floor.
There was no one in the bathroom, Lin Zheng pushed Gu Nanzhi into the last stall, and followed him in half a step slowly.
She pulled Gu Nanzhi's shirt out of her trousers without saying a word in the silence of the room, and went to undo those little buttons that couldn't be pinched.
The bathroom was very quiet, and there was a strong smell of incense in the air.
Worrying that Lin Zheng's patience would run out quickly, she looked at the unbuttoned buttons in frustration and said, "It's a good thing you don't wear this one when you go to bed, or I would have torn it up."
Lin Zheng's sudden "bold and unrestrained" words made Gu Nanzhi dumbfounded, so he untied the top two and showed her, "It's a little red, it doesn't hurt."
Lin Zheng approached, touched it with his fingers, "Does it really hurt?"
"Really." Gu Nanzhi looked at Lin Zheng, the shadow cast by the bright light concealed the turbulent emotion in her eyes, "That's right, you can't touch it anymore."
"Xiao Liu has an appointment to go clubbing for a while, do you want to go?" A voice suddenly approached from outside.
Lin Zheng squeezed a little bit in, pulled the door shut and buckled it.
For a time, the already narrow space became even more cramped, and any ambiguity would be magnified infinitely.
Lin Zheng looked into Gu Nanzhi's eyes from a close distance, and asked her silently, "Why can't I touch it anymore?"
Gu Nanzhi didn't speak, and stared at her with hot eyes.
The girl who spoke just now was next to them, playing her girlfriend's lustful WeChat voice on speaker mode, "Where is it? Thinking about you makes me feel sore."
The girl laughed and cursed, and whispered back to her, "Go out to play with Xiaoliu and the others tonight, if you don't go home, bear the pain."
Soon, the girl and her friend left, and Lin Zheng and Gu Nanzhi were left in the bathroom again. It was clear that no one would disturb her, but Lin Zheng still spoke in a low voice.
It was barely audible, but the scorching breath sprayed on Gu Nanzhi's chin became more and more obvious.
"Zhizhi, you haven't answered my question just now." Lin Zheng leaned against Gu Nanzhi, rubbing her chin with his lips while speaking, "Why can't you touch it again?"
Gu Nanzhi lowered his head slightly, his lower lip was held by Lin Zheng, and the little girl's clear eyes shone brightly, "Will there be a reaction?"
"Yes." Gu Nanzhi pressed Lin Zheng's body with both hands, pressed her to himself, and dropped the most exploding bomb in the lightest whisper, "When I miss you, my bottom hurts too."
Lin Zheng happily hugged her and acted like a baby, "You are getting better at talking."
Gu Nanzhi leaned sideways against the thin partition, his downcast eyes fell on Lin Zheng's short sleeves and wide neckline, and he couldn't move away, "We haven't tried it in public..."
Gu Nanzhi didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious.
Lin Zheng felt that this was quite exciting, that is, "I can't come out for too long, my classmates are still waiting."
Gu Nanzhi couldn't hold back, and laughed out loud, "Don't worry, although I haven't seen you for a long time, I can bear it. But, is it not good for me to meet your classmate like this?"
The two lowered their heads at the same time, and their eyes fell on Gu Nanzhi's slowly rising and falling chest.
The wet shirt caught on the hem of the underwear.
When you don't know what kind of scenery is below, you can guess for no reason.
Lin Zheng lowered his body and bit Gu Nanzhi's chest through his wet clothes.
The momentary sensory shock was too strong, Gu Nanzhi couldn't help snorting, it was very short, and quickly stirred up the bad factors in Lin Zheng's heart.
She raised her head and looked at Gu Nanzhi, but her lips did not forget to flirt.
When people approached outside again, Gu Nanzhi turned against the guest and forcefully lifted Lin Zheng's chin to kiss her.
The ambiguous voice surrounds my ears, for fear of being heard.
I don't want to, the more restrained the more intense.
"Did you hear any strange sounds?" The immature female voice asked strangely.
The companions were silent for a while, their voices became dry, "I don't know, let's go."
"I haven't gone to the bathroom yet."
"Go downstairs."
"..."
Soon, the enthusiasm faded away.
Gu Nanzhi leaned on Lin Zheng's shoulder with difficulty and panted, "Go back quickly, I really can't bear it if this continues."
Lin Zheng is not much better than Gu Nanzhi, she really wants to be self-willed now, just shake her head and leave, but when she thinks of Gu Nanzhi's words in the afternoon, she is still reluctant to mess up the last gathering.
Lin Zheng straightened up, and grabbed Gu Nanzhi's shirt hanging on his shoulders casually, "Then you go back to the car and wait for me, I'll leave as early as possible."
Gu Nanzhi said 'hmm', and slowly helped Lin Zheng wipe off the lipstick on the side of his lips, "No hurry, I will wait for you as long as it takes."
Lin Zheng hugged her and left reluctantly.
Walking near the box, the phone vibrated twice in succession.
It's Gu Nanzhi's WeChat, a video and a message, [There is something I want to say to you in 29 seconds. 】
Lin Zheng leaned against the wall outside the box and clicked on the video.
The video is a clip of her saying strings of words when she was the host of the welcome party for the first time. She wondered why Gu Nanzhi would have this. She didn't know that this was the only 'good medicine' Gu Nanzhi had when he missed her.
The following program is a love song "There Are Lovers in the World" sung by a man and a woman.
After Lin Zheng finished speaking, she asked the audience, 'What is love? '
In addition to screaming in disorder, what answered her was Gu Nanzhi's deep and sentimental voice, "It's you."
This is Gu Nanzhi's confession.
Already existed, but many years late.
Her love is Lin Zheng.
It was her long ago.
It's always been her.
