Chapter 430 Summer Night Wind and Likes
Summer night wind and street lamps flickering.
Su Chengyi and Deng Yizhou were strolling by Weiming Lake.
When Ye Ju heard that the two boys were going out for a walk, she naturally raised her hands in protest and said that she was coming too.
Of course, her purpose is obvious, to listen to the president’s gossip.
So Deng Yizhou decisively rejected her request to come together, emphasizing that this was a men's game.
In this way, Su Chengyi also thought that he was going to talk about some topics that were not suitable for girls to hear.
But the fact is that the two of them walked around the lake for almost two times, and no one spoke at all.
It’s like participating in some kind of walking competition.
As for Su Chengyi, it was the nature of others to not speak up, so he would never speak up even if he died.
So for a long time, no one broke the silence.
The final month of this semester at Peking University has basically come to an end, and many students have returned home.
Most of the people who showed up at the school tonight were graduates like Deng Yizhou, who wanted to see every plant and tree in the school in their last moments.
Su Chengyi passed by them and felt some of the sentimental atmosphere of the graduation season.
But Deng Yizhou was different from them. He didn't seem to be admiring the scenery or feeling sad about the spring and autumn, he was just walking quietly on his way.
Yes, not for a walk, but for a walk, walking very fast.
Su Chengyi wondered for a moment whether he had not finished running on campus or was checking his steps on WeChat.
Fortunately, he practiced archery during the winter vacation and his physical fitness improved a lot. He didn't feel tired even after walking briskly for two laps.
On the verge of starting the third lap, Deng Yizhou finally stopped.
He turned his head and looked at the lawn by the lake for a while, where there were scattered people sitting there.
His eyes were a little cold, and Su Chengyi couldn't help but look at them to see if there were any of his past enemies, the kind who had defeated him in a debate.
After a while, Deng Yizhou suddenly said:
"Go and sit there for a while?"
"Okay."
Su Chengyi nodded and followed him He walked to a deserted place with his footsteps.
The feng shui of this location is not very good. The branches of the trees grow thickly and wildly. From the angle of raising your head, you can only see the mottled and scattered night sky.
Also, it makes people feel that there are many caterpillars and other creatures in the trees.
The kind that might fall on someone’s head if a foot slips.
I got goosebumps just thinking about it.
The more Su Chengyi thought about it, the more resistant he became, but Deng Yizhou had already sat down cross-legged on his own, so he couldn't say anything, so he had to sit on the open space next to him.
Deng Yizhou waved his hand to shoo away the mosquitoes next to him, and unzipped the satchel hanging on his body. It was bulging with stuff, revealing the edges of several notebooks of different sizes.
But he took out two cans from inside, stretched out his hand and handed one to Su Chengyi.
Su Chengyi took it, the temperature was still freezing, and it felt cool in the hand.
“I just picked it up from their event site.”
Deng Yizhou laughed as he spoke, seeming a little embarrassed.
Su Chengyi also laughed. This behavior of pretending to be self-serving for public benefit was probably the first of its kind.
On weekdays, I donate money myself to fund the activities of the debating club.
The two pulled the tab of the can and clinked their glasses in tacit understanding.
The metal can made a crisp sound, blending into the cicada ensemble that sounded in the woods behind me.
Su Chengyi raised his head and took a sip of beer. He felt his mouth was dry.
The cold wheat juice is very thirst-quenching, especially after walking for a long time.
Contrary to his purpose, Deng Yizhou was obviously drinking to drown his sorrows. He drank most of the can in one gulp, and then let out a long sigh.
Su Chengyi thought for a while, then took the initiative to say:
"Why are you sighing? I just listened to the words of your speech, and thought you were very chic."
"Scene words That’s all, you can’t take it seriously.”
Deng Yizhou shook his head, his fingers tightened unconsciously, and he squeezed the can into a twisted shape.
"How can I not worry about it? The road ahead is confusing."
"What are your plans after graduation?"
Su Chengyi asked this in a tone like an old-timer. .
Deng Yizhou adjusted his temples, inexplicably feeling like he was being tortured by the interviewer.
"I found an internship some time ago, but now I'm hesitant."
"Law firm?"
Su Chengyi drank slowly.
"No, the court."
Deng Yizhou shook his head and reminded himself that the person in front of him was just a freshman. There was no need to talk too much about the internship. If he was caught, he would be dead. It's not good if you become anxious.
Unexpectedly, his next words were:
"Game company legal department, president, are you interested?"
Su Chengyi asked casually.
Deng Yizhou was stunned by his question. Why did he say it as if there was such a position right in front of him?
“To put it this way, I haven’t considered it yet. Because if it’s a serious big factory, I don’t think there is much hope for an interview.”
"Then you can think about it and talk about it later."
Su Cheng seemed not to care about his answer, his eyes drifting down on the lake.
The moonlight was reflected there, glowing with a beautiful silver color, like a jade plate.
Su Chengyi originally thought that Deng Yizhou only brought these two cans of beer to have a drink.
I didn’t expect that a satchel was stuffed full of stuff, and it was indeed a gesture of drinking to drown my sorrows.
After three rounds of drinking, the conversation started to open.
“When I read the manuscript at the event just now, I actually felt a little guilty.
First, I was not sure about my future at all, and I couldn’t say such impassioned words.”
< br>Deng Yizhou took off his glasses and wiped his face.
Su Chengyi found that this seemed to be the first time he had seen the president take off his glasses.
Without the equipment of glasses, Deng Yizhou's majesty was almost reduced by 99%, and he seemed to have a somewhat frail and scholarly temperament.
Su Chengyi wanted to take out his cell phone to take a photo and send it to the debate community.
However, it is very likely that Deng Yizhou will sink his body in Weiming Lake, so let’s forget it.
“What about the second thing?”
“The second thing is that I didn’t actually love debating that much in the first place.”
Deng Yizhou wiped the lenses of his glasses with a solemn and serious tone.
Su Chengyi was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect this answer at all.
And no one would believe it if he said it. The members of the debating club would definitely think that he was hallucinating.
It is impossible for Deng Yizhou not to like to compete in debates, just like Usain Bolt does not like running and Tyson does not like boxing.
“It’s true. When I first joined the debate club, it was with Lu Man.”
As soon as he said these words, Su Chengyi's ears immediately stood up.
The breath of gossip.
No, when did I get infected by Ye Ju?
“She and I met at an event for freshmen. At that time, I was afraid of society, and I was dark, thin and rustic.
She was different. She is the freshman representative of that class, and the brothers in front of me and behind me are all trying to find her contact information.”
When Deng Yizhou talked about these things, he smiled faintly, showing a bit of nostalgia.
Su Chengyi thought about it for a moment and realized that this senior Lu Man was actually very beautiful, with the appearance of a typical engineering college beauty.
The reason why he didn't realize it before was entirely because with Chen Jinzhi and Chu Qingmian in front of him, he was already somewhat immune to human-level beauty.
"After the meeting, I was deliberately left to clean up the scene before I said the first words to her."
Deng Yizhou's heartfelt expression successfully made Su Chengyi curious.
"What did you say?"
"She said: This classmate, let me borrow it for a moment."
Su Chengyi: "."
Isn't this just a polite word? ! Is it necessary to miss my classmates like this? ! Isn't that a little too innocent?
But as soon as he said these words, Su Chengyi tried to remember it.
The first words Chu Qingmian said to him date back to when she was very young.
If you count it after rebirth, that is what she said to him when she came to call him at the subway station:
"Su Chengyi!"
Just call him He was pulled out of the state of doubting life and accepted the reality of rebirth.
The first words Chen Jinzhi said to him should have been when they met by chance in the Academic Affairs Office. She took the initiative to say hello to him inexplicably.
"Hello, classmate, my name is Chen Jinzhi."
Of course, the guy explained afterwards that it was because he looked at her so blankly that she couldn't help but want to come over and tease the idiot.
In fact, it is better not to explain.
At that time, he was just shocked as to why Iris had descended here from the sky. He was definitely not blinded by her beauty!
Su Chengyi thought that it was quite commemorative. It was understandable why Deng Yizhou got so excited when talking about this.
"Then, you fell in love at first sight?"
Su Chengyi asked.
"How is it possible? Only a blind person could see me at that time." Deng Yizhou shook his head.
“Later, when the club was recruiting new members, I happened to see her sign up for the debating club, so I signed up too.”
"By chance?"
".I admit that I spent two hours wandering around the Hundred Regiments Recruitment Center, right?"
Deng Yizhou gritted his teeth, this junior really didn't give anyone face. !
“She is from the School of Engineering, and we can only meet her every school-level event, so I am ashamed to say that the first reason why I work hard to debate is actually to get into the school team, so that I can do more Take the opportunity to meet her."
Su Chengyi nodded and agreed.
To be honest, this kind of lust is much easier to accept than inexplicable love.
“That was the first time I fell in love with a girl since I was a child. I was stupid. I didn’t know how to hide it from anyone I liked. It was like I liked you written on my face. So, the whole debate team She knew I had a crush on her
Later one time. In the friendly match with BGI, I decided that if I won, I would confess to her.
Facts have proved that I should set less flags and so on. "
So I lost. Is it like taking a shot at a game against BGI?
Su Chengyi secretly cursed.
"After that, the atmosphere in the entire club was very depressed. On the way back to the dormitory alone, I felt very frustrated.
I didn't expect that she was waiting for me downstairs in the dormitory in the cold wind. An hour later, the first words he said after seeing me were:
I heard xx said that you plan to confess to me after you win the competition?
I thought, forget it. , just said yes, what's wrong?
Unexpectedly, she burst out laughing and said that in this case, if she lost the game, she would have to do the confession. "
Su Chengyi was frightened for a moment. Good guy, this is another master at sultry boys' hearts.
It can be seen from Deng Yizhou's expression that at least for now, he still likes him. .
"What happens next?" ”
“After that, we got together, like most campus lovers.
After that, they broke up, just like most campus lovers. "
Deng Yizhou spoke very slowly.
"Why did you break up? "
Su Chengyi frowned.
" Trivial. Being late for a date or two, the occasional forgotten holiday, not controlling the bad tone when arguing
It doesn’t sound like a big deal, right? But that's how we broke up. "
Deng Yizhou's tone was understatement, but his speaking speed was very slow.
Su Chengyi lowered his eyes and was silent for a while.
In fact, compared to those vigorous breakups, he wanted to eat the other party alive. In this way, a peaceful breakup is the most common.
It is also the one with the least chance of reconciliation.
Because there is no unresolved misunderstanding, no hatred, maybe just tired.
However, it does sound a bit regretful.
“Actually, even if we didn’t break up at that time, the possibility of ending up in the end was very small. She is a local, and it is impossible for her family to accept a poor student like me who has nothing.
I think this may be the reason why neither of us tried to save him.”
Deng Yizhou drank the last can of beer and flattened the can. There were already five or six pieces scattered around his legs. Such a discus.
"Since then, I have really focused my enthusiasm on the debating club. And she quit the club and reduced her contact with all members.
It was only a long time later that I found out that she had Things didn't go well here. Her roommates teamed up to isolate and spread rumors about her, and she was raped during her internship. The boss was harassed and Bi She was stuck for a long time. She kept it to herself and didn’t tell anyone else.”
Only after hearing this, Su Chengyi understood why all the graduates gathered together to take pictures today. , she was alone and could only wait for people passing by to take a photo of her.
I also understood the origin of those sudden tears.
“So, cherish the people in front of you.
When you can hold hands and walk across the road, hold hands more. When you can say you like it, say a few more words. You won’t lose a piece of flesh.”
Deng Yizhou lay on his back on the lawn and muttered to himself, Su Chengyi kept With the original posture, the evening breeze was still blowing.
When the time came, the music club on the roadside also started to play songs to test the sound.
"Many years ago, You You. A pair of clear eyes,
running like a bolt of spring lightning.
I want to see the whole world, go to the farthest places,
and feel like I have wings that can fly over mountains and oceans. ”
Su Chengyi has heard it, it’s SHE’s “You Were a Boy”. At this time, it should have just been released.
As soon as this lyrics was sung, many people passing by stopped to stop. .
“Having a habit of lying means you have become mature,
Can you love others only after you own a house?
I always think that the scars can be healed after success, and the people I missed are buried beside my desire.
When the youth is exhausted, only the ugly face is left. ”
“Isn’t that right? You can’t love others until you have a house. ”
Deng Yizhou was drunk and had a conversation with the lyrics:
"Don Quixote was just a fool who challenged the windmill in the end. Adults have to face reality after all."
Su Chengyi listened to him talking next to him and thought of his curtain call speech just now.
He said that debate can allow him to express his shallow opinions and confusion about the world, and it can also help him distinguish right from wrong.
In fact, being so morbidly indulged in the world of ideological debate and confrontation is not an escape from reality.
Su Cheng thought that maybe the days he spent in the library in his previous life were more of an escape than an academic pursuit.
It seems like this.
So in the sleepless nights that followed, he looked out of the floor-to-ceiling windows at the neon lights and busy world, and felt out of place.
I just feel that looking back at the first half of my life, it was so devastated that it was meaningless.
So he was reborn. Flowers will bloom again, and people can be young again.
However, his regrets do not include any unexpected love stories.
For Deng Yizhou, it would be even worse if he recalled it in the future. He would have to drink three big whites.
Su Chengyi thought for a while, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and asked:
"President, what you just said is to cherish the words behind the person in front of you."
"Ah, just say it more when you can say that you like it. Don't believe it, the president is someone who has experienced it before."
Deng Yizhou was stunned for a moment, and finally remembered what he said. What.
"Then look, there are no outsiders here now. She can't hear, so you can still speak."
Su Chengyi silently pressed the voice send button for a long time.
Deng Yizhou's brain was confused by alcohol and had become dull. Otherwise, with his debating brain, he would have noticed that there was a fraud here.
"Really? That's good."
He even took a deep breath, and then shouted with full energy:
"Me! I still like Lu Man! Now! I like him even more than two years ago!"
"Phew."
The sound of successful voice transmission.
Ye Ju on the other side quickly sent a series of expressions, most of which were [like] and [smile].
Obviously she and Lu Man are together now.
It’s done.
Su Chengyi turned off her phone.
When the matter is over, he brushes off his clothes and hides himself and his name.
Deng Yizhou, who was lying on the ground, realized something was wrong and struggled to get up.
“No way, you kid can’t trick me, can you?! You’re a twenty-five-year-old boy!”
"How could that be possible?"
Su Chengyi stood up while suppressing a smile.
“Thank you, President, for your teaching.”
After saying this, he sneaked out far away, taking advantage of the fact that he didn’t drink much.
Thinking of Deng Yizhou's words, Su Chengyi stood still beside the railing by the lake, opened the WeChat chat box, and sent two messages.
"Chen Jinzhi."
"Chu Qingmian."
This time the replies from both of them came very quickly.
"What's the matter? Mr. Layer Crisp."
"What are you doing?! Su Chengyi, why are you so serious all of a sudden. Don't scare me!!"
Su Chengyi wanted to laugh a little and rubbed his eyes at the same time to prevent himself from retweeting the message.
But after thinking about it, I chose another path that is easily despised.
“It’s nothing, I just want to tell you that I like you.”
That’s just to reply with the same message directly!
Chen Jinzhi: "It doesn't count to say such things after drinking. But, I also like you."
"."
Chu Qingmian: "Why are you saying such things all of a sudden! Are you playing truth or dare! Or how much wine have you drunk!!"
"Oh, okay, okay, I like you too, I like you very much, the invincible in the universe likes you to the very end!"
Su Chengyi lay on the railing and looked at the ripples of the lake.
Behind him, people came and went, each heading towards Great Expectations.
This is the eve of the first summer vacation of college.
It’s windy on a summer night and I’m a little drunk.
When I first met the world, when I was a boy.
The moment when your love is successfully expressed.
