Accompany you to the end of the world

Chapter 68

With a gentle tone and warm fingertips, if there is just a little magic of happy birthday, it will melt into the night and disappear in no time.A beautiful and fragile existence, recalled afterwards, it is always impossible to determine whether it is reality or an illusion.

But people like Jing Yuan are not very good at expressing emotions, and they don't like to talk about their own dedication, but what he can remember and give is always more than you imagined, so much that you are overjoyed, stunned, and want to put that The moment keeps rewinding.

It turned out that his so-called "something" was not to pick up Xichuan at the airport, but to go to the Haagen-Dazs store to pick up the pre-ordered ice cream cake.

"I never thought that Xie Jingyuan would be such a literary and artistic youth, it must be Haagen-Dazs cake." Liu Xichuan expressed Zhihui's surprise.

"It's not me, it's Zhihui."

Although out of the romantic psychology of a little girl, she does have this preference, but Zhihui still chooses to dismantle the stage without hesitation: "I never said that I would not eat anything other than Haagen-Dazs cakes."

"But I lost a bet with you last year, and I still owe you a meal."

Zhihui was slightly taken aback, last year, last winter.

The bet on something has been completely forgotten, but "buy me ice cream" is not all the clues you can recall.

Crossing the road, holding hands in a hurry, conversations that became incongruous due to the mismatch of EQ, feeling discouraged and giving up the idea halfway... Therefore, the plan to eat ice cream together was postponed indefinitely, and this unhappy breakup The episode originally thought that they would never mention each other again.But on the return bus, I was moved by a sentence, I don't know where I borrowed courage, and I almost confessed.It's just that he almost ran into the opponent's arms and said "Ihara, I...so cold".And he replied...

——Then, don't let go.

Those words were connected into sentences, those tone and tone fluctuated into tides, that gentle voice warmed to the bone marrow, spread through the whole year, and slightly hurt the eardrum.

You remember the details so vividly that you didn't expect the dumb guy to remember them too.Even at this moment of overjoyed, I extremely doubt whether the part he remembers is the same as his own. Is it that unreliable and suspected confession, or is it just an unfinished bet?
But for the whole night that followed, Jing Yuan was chatting and laughing with Xi Chuan, but he was like an outsider who couldn't get in his mouth at all.Zhihui thought of her getting along with Jing Yuan, as if her nerves were tense all the time, when did she start to become extremely unnatural and in a dilemma, and she didn't even realize it.

When I was in the third year of high school, I was still proud because of inertia. I was the class monitor and he was the secretary of the Communist Youth League. There was no barrier in the process of getting along.She was a cheerful and happy girl since she was a child, but she lost all confidence because of repeated shocks related to the college entrance examination.Compared with Jing Yuan, he is so small, and compared with Xi Chuan, he is even more humble.

Don't want to let go.

But the point is that the outstretched hand always hesitates and misses the opportunity to hold him together.

Later, Xi Chuan made a joke of "the next is the time of two people", and Jing Yuan suggested to Zhihui to go to 7-11 to buy some hot food.The silence all the way finally made him ask: "Why are you unhappy?"

Zhihui smiled bitterly: "It's nothing, I just think you and Xichuan look really good together." Although she never wanted to admit it.

"No way, I can chat with her only because we are friends, and we can talk about all kinds of messes." Ihara said.

One sentence blurted out: "Then what about me?"

"Huh?" The boy frowned, "You——are not friends."

You are not a friend, but a girl I like.

I can’t complain to you naturally, I can’t look into your eyes calmly, I can’t confide my thoughts to you, I can’t tell you about my emotional troubles, and even all my troubles are caused by you... These, completely Because you are the girl I like.

Lovely words, after all, can't be said.

I thought that no boy would talk about "like" all day long.

Instead, he just blurted out and said "you are not a friend", never thinking about other possibilities, never thinking that girls will misunderstand and lose.

"Then... let's be friends too." I want to communicate with you, but I don't want to be told that "the biggest problem you have is that you don't know each other well".Thinking about it, it was indeed the case. Before Ihara transferred himself to class K of the third year, as a classmate, he didn't even speak three words to him.After that, the situation just became that Ihara continued to help him in his studies, but he fell in love with him almost immediately, and there was no friendship to make the transition.The girlfriends are right, there is no tacit understanding between each other.And Ihara was right, because...

--not friend.

Ihara was taken aback: "...Am I being dumped and lost in love?"

Zhihui was severely shocked: "When did we two ever 'love'!"

"I thought we were a couple all along..." It was a matter of course.

"Ah ah ah ah - since when did it start!" Is it jet lag? "Are you Xie Jingyuan who traveled from the future? Do you remember that up to now, we haven't confessed to each other."

"Huh? Why?"

"Why? You ask me?"

The two had no choice but to stare at each other, and the conversation became the same as before.

After a while, Zhihui said with a serious face, "Anyway, I still want to start with you as friends. Whether it's envy or jealousy, I yearn for the relationship between you and Xichuan that you can talk about everything."

Jing Yuan was confused and deeply depressed, but Zhihui had already defined this as "the best birthday".

When facing Ihara, there were many guesses, hesitation, and low self-esteem. Only this time I made a decision to start again. Although I regretted it the next day, this is undoubtedly the best birthday ever.Zhihui thinks so.
