To say goodbye is to die a little

Chapter 68

It was raining when we left the museum, not too much, but drizzling.

There are still about four hours before evening self-study.

They had fun for two days in a row, and when they came out, they immediately gave up their fun. Xu Peng decided to go home, and separated from them halfway, and the rest of them also parted ways near the school, returning to school or going home.

Chang Yue and Su Yan went back to the rented house first, took a shower and changed into clean clothes, and stuffed the wet swimsuit and the rest of the clothes they brought back from the aquarium into the washing machine.

It took almost two hours to pack up, so I had to go out quickly.

Chang Yue always felt that the birthday party was just a formality, worried that Wang Shangzhou and others would bother to give him gifts, and it would be awkward to have adults around, so he didn't invite.

Unexpectedly, they still spent money on him in disguise.He invited them to play in the aquarium, and they paid for the lunch, which was not cheap. They also bought small ornaments inside, and washed a lot of group photos for him.

Wang Shangzhou even secretly left a gift in the closet of the room. Chang Yue found it when he came out of the shower and was looking for a T-shirt inside.

What he gave was a pen with his name engraved on it and an amulet.

There was also a message in it, writing about the things from the two people's acquaintance to the present, and the topic turned to gifts, threatening that these two things were very useful, and he could use them every day when he was in college.Finally said: No matter how far we go in the future, we will be good friends for the rest of our lives.

Eloquently written almost five hundred words.

Chang Yue held the pen and amulet in his left hand, and held the letter paper in his right hand as he walked and read it. He also finished reading it when he arrived at Su Yan's room.It's a bit unfortunate that at the end he started to feel his eyelids itchy and hot. Fortunately, Su Yan was very concerned about the extra letter paper in his hand, thinking it was a love letter from someone else, so he snatched it right away.

"Why are you so serious..." After a few glances, he changed his words, "I've written so much, I haven't written you such a long letter yet."

The two had never quarreled, had no chance to write the agreed "reconciliation letter", and were together almost all the time. When they separated, they used the most convenient tool to communicate. They really didn't expect to write something in the form of a letter.

The first letter that moved Chang Yue so much was not written by himself...

Seeing that Chang Yue didn't object, Su Yan carefully read the contents of the letter, and then secretly displeased.

There are not many boys who are as delicate as Wang Shangzhou. No wonder Changyue feels relaxed when he is with him... The gift pen is engraved with Changyue's name, the price is not cheap, and there are amulets, All things that are used every day.

Su Yan gritted her teeth silently, thinking that she really honestly drew a figure painting that Chang Yue would only open when he was in the mood, as a birthday present for him, he regretted it so much.

But... he remembered the content of the painting, and felt that his gift was invincible.

When Chang Yue saw the paintings drawn by Su Yan, at first glance, he felt familiar when the paintings were divided into two parts. It seemed that Su Yan carefully selected the thick stack that had not been filled for two years. Saw it in the photo album.

He took a few steps back, and observed the painting that Su Yan held in his hand from a full angle, which was convenient for him to see. For a moment, he suddenly realized and said incredulously: "The above is me and you?"

"Well," Su Yan smiled, "Does it look like it?"

Chang Yue nodded for a while, then took a closer look, "It seems."

It is similar, but the painting is of their childhood appearance, or a brand new picture composed of two childhood photos, and it is drawn, so Chang Yue didn't realize that it was him and Su Yan that were drawn at first.

The two children above are both about three years old. They hug each other and are very close.

In the original photo, Chang Yue raised his left elbow slightly upward in mid-air, holding a rabbit doll about his height in his right hand. It looked like a random photo.In Su Yan's picture, the little one is hugging a big watermelon, who knows how he hugged it.He stood holding the watermelon, not facing the camera, but looking at it stubbornly. Of course, this appearance is very likely because the watermelon in his arms is too heavy, and he gritted his teeth secretly in order to hug it.

So in this meticulous painting of characters, the watermelon in Su Yan's arms becomes Chang Yue, and Chang Yue's left elbow rests on Su Yan's shoulder, and the palm of his hand seems to be holding the back of his head, which is invisible in the picture. , it looks quite harmonious.

Some things they are familiar with are sketched in the background, not many, which just rightly blended the romantic and lovely atmosphere into the two little protagonists.

When Su Yan was about to draw the birthday gift designated by Chang Yue, she thought of her mother Su Qingyi, and subconsciously followed her approach, intending to incorporate some non-existent moments into Chang Yue's memory.So just as soon as he started to write, this picture naturally appeared in his mind.

Then, one stroke after another, it was like a godsend.

"Do you like it?" Su Yan asked.

"I like it." Chang Yue raised his head and answered, then continued to look at the painting, and laughed secretly as he looked at it.

In fact, Su Yan has always been extremely obsessed with the impossible thing of "wanting to grow up together", and has never stopped thinking about it. Several times, Chang Yue has caught the complaint of this established fact in his words.

Looking at the painting, Chang Yue suddenly felt that it would be great if the two could meet each other since childhood.

In order to improve his composition performance, Su Yan planned four to five days of reading extracurricular books a week in the schedule that he made for him. Aunt Su helped to choose the books.

When he was at his grandfather's house during the summer vacation, he happened to read a book with a paragraph in it, and he was stunned for a moment after reading it.Looking at the two children cuddling each other in the painting, he suddenly remembered some joy in the past, which was far away, subtle and indistinct. Unfortunately, before he could savor it carefully, the traces had quietly disappeared from his mind. , as if it never appeared.

Then he remembered this passage from the book:

"There are two kinds of people. One kind has the past, and the other doesn't. Those who have the past love life and regret the passing of time, so with a special love, they treasure everything they have experienced in In the barn of the soul. A person who has no past doesn’t care about the passage of time. This numbness makes him despise all things. Everything that has been experienced is like a passing cloud, drifting with the wind, leaving nothing behind.”

In the past, Chang Yue would always choose to forget, and indeed at the most glorious age, he passed a not-so-short period lightly. He thought he was the second type of person.

But after meeting Su Yan, he no longer thought so.

When the two of them put on their school uniforms and went out, both mobile phones had already received many urging calls and messages.

Chang Yue replied another message, and saw that almost everyone in the few lists was asking him if his newly changed avatar was from when he was a child.

Of course not, his profile picture is Xiao Su Yan.

It was Su Yan's profile picture.

The real villain version of the couple's avatar.

Except for family members, no one has seen Chang Yue's childhood photos.

Although Su Yan's childhood photos often appeared in Wang Xuan's videos, but this painting was done with meticulous brushwork, so only people on Chang Yue's side suspected that it wasn't him, and no one had discovered that it was Su Yan.

He shook the phone towards Su Yan, Su Yan took a closer look, and said with a smile: "The people I asked here didn't find out, but I can't hide it from my uncle."

"Will they find it strange that we use each other's childhood photos as profile pictures?"

Su Yan held the backpack on one shoulder, and said in a very arrogant tone, "It's strange that I didn't change it."

"Then I won't change it either." Chang Yue put the phone in his pocket.

It's rare that my birthday falls on a Sunday this time, not counting tonight's evening self-study, but also a day off.

The Double Ninth Festival theme of the cultural wall has not been replaced, and there are not many people taking pictures.

The two were chasing each other, and when they were about to reach the front door, Chang Yue saw Xiao Lin, the clerk who was standing outside, glanced at them, and immediately ran back into the store.

Chang Yue was inexplicable, and before he could say anything, Su Yan pushed his back and walked in step by step.Chang Yue stepped into the threshold with one leg, and before he could stand still, the store suddenly burst into cheers.Immediately afterwards, everyone stood up, looked in his direction, and sang the birthday song at the same time.

Because of the large number of people, there was some confusion at the beginning, but after a while they all came together.

Today's Glimpse is full of tables. Although it is not crowded, every table is singing birthday songs. Even in the private room upstairs, many people crowded on the stairs and sang down. Everyone stopped their movements and frequently cast curious eyes inside.

The incident happened suddenly, Chang Yue hadn't had time to get nervous, he just felt a little shy about the noisy birthday song, Su Yan's chin resting on his shoulder, and the family members who came down from the back kitchen or upstairs.

Chang Yue's ears were hot, and he pulled Su Yan to be side by side with him, but he didn't know what to do, until the singing stopped, he still stood there blankly.

Someone laughed immediately. Fortunately, a little angel came to the rescue in the increasingly hot temperature.

Lu Manman pushed a three-layered birthday cake to Chang Yue, and tiptoed to put on a birthday hat for Chang Yue, who had already bent down, with a crisp voice, asking him to make a wish and blow out the candles.

It is not easy to close your eyes and make a wish in front of so many people.But when Su Yan whispered that everyone present was waiting to eat cake, Chang Yue immediately closed his eyes and seriously made three wishes.

The first one, as usual, I hope that family, friends and loved ones are safe and healthy.

Second, I hope that the nine-member group can be admitted to the ideal university in their minds.

The third......

Chang Yue opened his eyes and asked Su Yan to blow out the candles with him.

Then it became even more lively. Everyone present got a piece of cake, and many guests came to Chang Yue to say auspicious words. Girls who were the same age as them wanted to take a photo with him and Su Yan. It cost a lot of money A lot of time.

Finally, the two followed the adults upstairs.

The meal had been prepared long ago, the two of them were half full, and time was running out, so they had to put down their chopsticks, took a group photo amid the urging of adults, and then picked up several cakes packed for Wang Shangzhou and others, and ran to the school .

Chang Yue's third wish is not actually a wish, but his goal.

Although he is an adult today, he still hates saying goodbye like a child.

So, what he promises is:

I will work hard step by step to give myself more opportunities to choose, so that we can always be together and say goodbye less.
