In the evening, half past seven.
After dinner, Gu Yifan took Su Qinghe for a walk by the lake on the campus of Jinling University.
Along the way, Su Qinghe kicked the pebbles scattered on both sides of the road from time to time. It was obvious that she was in a good mood at the moment.
Unknowingly, the two of them walked to the small woods to the north of the lake.
On the bluestone road outside the grove, under the yellowish street lights, the two of them were walking slowly hand in hand. The sound of cicadas could be heard from time to time, and balls could also be heard from time to time on the playground across the lake. Cheers after the kick.
After walking for a long time, Gu Yifan saw small beads of sweat leaking from Su Qinghe's forehead and knew that she was a little tired.
Also, it’s still sweltering in Jinling in September, and the hoarse chirping of the cicadas on the trees has already told it all.
In addition, Su Qinghe was jumping up and down along the way, so it would be strange not to sweat.
At this time,
Gu Yifan saw a row of bluestone stools at the entrance of the grove.
So he took Su Qinghe's little hand and walked over.
A few sycamore leaves were scattered sparsely on the bluestone stool. Gu Yifan waved them away and sat down with Su Qinghe.
Su Qinghe tilted her head and leaned gently on Gu Yifan's shoulder.
Looking at the dark yellow street lamp, I felt a little distracted.
An inexplicable emotion surged into my heart.
do not know why.
She suddenly missed the campus in high school, even though at that time, before she met Gu Yifan, she was very lonely.
People are always like this. When they have something, they always want to escape. When they think of it again later, no matter whether it is good or bad, they will miss it extremely.
And those beautiful things that we have always been thinking about are always slowly forgotten while we are thinking about them...
Just when Su Qinghe was distracted, Gu Yifan also looked back at the dark tree behind him as if thinking about something.
In fact, Gu Yifan has always had doubts in his heart.
Is that why every university has such a small forest?
And every grove has its own field legend.
Neither of them spoke, they just sat quietly.
After a long silence,
When Gu Yifan came back to his senses, he found that Su Qinghe was also in a daze, looking a little silly in his silence.
Smiling slightly, he said softly: "Su Hanhan, what are you thinking about?"
"ah?"
Su Qinghe was interrupted by Gu Yifan's voice. She came back to her senses and looked at Gu Yifan and whispered: "No... I didn't think about anything..."
Gu Yifan knew at a glance that this fool was not telling the truth.
The two have been together for so long, and Su Qinghe has already changed into his shape. Gu Yifan can tell at a glance whether she is telling the truth.
He knew that Su Qinghe was a little homesick.
Also, the two of them have been away from the mountain city for some time.
It just so happens that the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day will coincide with each other in a while, and there will be a long holiday. Then the two of them will go home.
Yue Yue reached out and rubbed Su Qinghe's little head, and said with a smile: "Hanhan, let's go back during the National Day."
"Um?"
Su Qinghe was stunned for a moment, and she turned to look at Gu Yifan in surprise.
Because Gu Yifan actually knew what she was thinking.
"Hmm~"
Su Qinghe nodded, and then said softly: "I miss my aunt a little and the food she cooked."
"Uh...(⊙o⊙)..."
Gu Yifan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "If my mother knew about it, she would probably be extremely happy!"
"But, are you so anxious to become the daughter-in-law of our old Gu family?"
He looked at Su Qinghe with a half-smile and added.
"ah?"
Su Qinghe was a little confused. Wasn't he talking about missing his aunt and the food she cooked? Why did it become...
Her face was flushed, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
silence……
After a while,
Su Qinghe suddenly spoke softly: "What do you think those classmates from high school are doing now?"
"Um?"
Gu Yifan was stunned for a moment.
"Them?"
"Perhaps like us, we are currently on the university campus, adapting to the new environment."
“Or maybe you’ve made new friends and are chatting and eating together.”
"Or maybe he's busy falling in love!"
"Hehehe..."
Gu Yifan thought for a while, then said with a smile.
"Oh oh"
Su Qinghe nodded lightly and said nothing more.
…
"Pa bang bang..."
"Boo boo..."
"Pfft..."
"Pfft..."
At this moment, some strange sounds came from the woods behind the two of them.
The sound was very rhythmic, like some musical instrument was beating, or like crickets chirping in the grass.
The sound was not very loud, but it was particularly clear in the night.
Su Qinghe looked back strangely. The entrance to the dark woods seemed like something terrifying would suddenly jump out at any time.
Her body suddenly trembled slightly, and she subconsciously moved towards Gu Yifan, obviously a little scared.
Gu Yifan was slightly startled. Unlike Su Qinghe, he immediately knew what the sound was.
"You...did you hear anything?"
Su Qinghe whispered nervously.
"Well……"
Gu Yifan was a little embarrassed. Of course he heard it and knew what the sound was, but he didn't know what to say for a while.
"How about... let's go?"
Su Qinghe suddenly hugged Gu Yifan's arm tightly and spoke with a trembling voice.
"Well... let's go."
Gu Yifan nodded when he saw this.
After saying that, the two of them were ready to get up and leave.
Just at this time,
A man and a woman in messy clothes suddenly appeared in the woods. They were arranging their clothes as they walked.
The boy had a satisfied smile on his face, while the girl's face was a little rosy, and she was complaining softly as she walked.
It seemed to be saying that there were too many mosquitoes in the woods and she was bitten all over her body.
The distance was a bit far, and neither Gu Yifan nor Su Qinghe could hear it very clearly.
Sudden.
The two people who had just walked out looked up and their eyes met Gu Yifan and Su Qinghe who were standing up from their chairs.
Both parties were shocked!
"..."
The atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle and a little awkward.
The boy who came out of the grove looked embarrassed, while the girl hurriedly lowered her head in embarrassment.
"Hi~"
"You two, what a coincidence!"
"Are you guys admiring the moon here too?"
"Hehehe..."
The boy looked embarrassed and smiled unnaturally.
Gu Yifan: "..."
Su Qinghe: "..."
The two of them looked up at the sky at the same time. At this time, the sky was pitch black, and there was a ghostly moon!
"Hehehe..."
Seeing this, the boy smiled awkwardly again.
"I mean……"
He wanted to say something, but the girl next to him pulled him away in a hurry...
