He Tianran was gradually forgetting something.
Cao Aiqing was not surprised by this.
As early as after Wang Ma was hospitalized, He Tianran's relative survived. Cao Aiqing sensitively captured this. However, what He Tianran forgot at that time was not enough to make him forget that he was still in the endless hell. The fact is that Cao Aiqing did not test it more.
But now, he has forgotten that "Peony Pavilion".
What does that scene mean?
Perhaps, that was when He Tianran faced his parents who never taught him anything. After suffering the pain of reincarnation and understanding the truth, He Tianran fell in love with himself who had no idea why he loved him for more than ten years before his life, and fell in love with two sincere hearts. Feelings, an answer given.
Dreams, whether short or long, are just dreams. What year comes and goes.
Now that the original problem has disappeared, this answer should be forgotten as a matter of course.
Cao Aiqing finally felt the same feeling that He Tianran felt when he made up for Wen Liang's regrets, or maybe it's not as sad as he imagined...
Because when you really make up your mind to help someone, or fulfill someone's wish, then in the process, there must be something more important to you than sadness...
In fact, it is funny to say that He Tianran, who had been guessing Cao Aiqing's long-cherished wish, gradually realized his long-cherished wish without knowing it.
And when his long-cherished wish slowly came true, he was also gradually forgetting about his long-cherished wish, just like when Wen Liang was with He Tianran, he had so seriously thought about their happiness after college more than once. Life, but in the end, her long-cherished wish continued to shrink and condensed into a symbolic node like going to the snowy mountains.
Those boundless and beautiful visions can always be condensed into the moment when they can truly be expressed.
Either a word or an action.
Then……
relief.
But now, there is only one thing that makes Cao Aiqing uneasy. As He Tianran gradually forgets the past, she begins to fear that the other party will suddenly forget her...
The difference between Wen Liang and He Tianran is that because Wen Liang's long-cherished wish is to be with He Tianran, no one can help her except He Tianran.
But He Tianran...
What he wants is a "home".
This family does not necessarily require Cao Aiqing to help him complete it...
Although the girl hopes to stay with him forever, as the relationship between the two heats up, He Tianran forgets faster and faster. Whenever he forgets part of his memory, the details and causes of the world will also change. Due to the changes, Cao Aiqing had to think about a very practical issue——
Without Wen Liang's pranks and that bullying, what would He Tianran and himself become?
Fortunately, it was because of work. After meeting his parents that time, He Tianran went to Shanghai because of work. Although he would take two days every month to return to the port city to resolve his lovesickness with Cao Aiqing, they were separated. Traveling around the country is still inconvenient, and now another year has passed. In September, Cao Aiqing will leave to study for a master's degree at the Bartlett School of Architecture, University of London, and this journey will take another two years, or even longer...
"...Do you want me to go abroad?"
One evening in the evening, when the two were loving each other, Cao Aiqing once asked.
"Why not? This has always been your dream. Even if you have repeated it once, it is always pleasant to embark on the road to your dream."
There was no hesitation in He Tianran's answer.
"You just...don't want me to stay with you?"
It wasn't until Cao Aiqing asked this question that there was a slight hesitation on He Tianran's face, but soon he became extremely serious and said:
"Of course I want to see you every day, but if our separation is for the sake of being together better in the future, then I can bear the long or short loneliness during this period, um... I can bear it, come on, Let me kiss you first~"
"Ouch~!"
Yes, the separation is to make them better together; the separation is also to allow them to stay together longer...
He Tianran's love for Cao Aiqing did not disappear because of the disappearance of memory. Instead, it became stronger and stronger. It was not until the eve of Cao Aiqing's departure that the source of this intense love was found.
It was a Friday in the middle of summer. Bai Tingting suddenly had a whim. Taking advantage of the gap period when everyone else was still there, she suggested in the group to go back to Gangcheng Middle School to have a look...
…
…
In my impression, the plane trees in high school were always lush.
The afternoon sun was scorching hot. When the group arrived at Hong Kong Central, they found that there were many parents accompanying students in sportswear walking through the campus. After looking around and asking, they found out that today was the day of the school sports meeting.
"Oh, isn't this my home court today? In the past, it was only on days like this that the teachers in class would think of me. At the time, I was still thinking about getting into a police academy or a sports school."
Xue Yong looked at the junior students not far away who were preparing for the long jump in the sand pit, eager to try, and muttered.
"It's just you? Are you taking the police academy exam? Forget it~ Don't you know what your grades were back then?"
Bai Tingting glanced at him, sneered, then covered her mouth and laughed.
"Hey, I wasn't blind when I was studying. If I had broken into your small study group in time, Tingting, with your grades, and tutored me, my fate would have turned a corner. Well?"
"Hey, who believes it~"
Xue Yong's exaggerated remarks made Bai Tingting smile. The two are now a couple. A year ago, Bai Tingting entered a private bilingual kindergarten and became a glorious kindergarten teacher. This was also her original dream.
As for Xue Yong, because he stayed for two years, he is still a college student. Even if he cannot become a policeman, returning home and inheriting the family business will be enough to keep him busy for the rest of his life.
"Hey Ai Qing, I think if Brother Xiaoyong really got involved with us, he might have been able to get into the police academy."
Cao Aiqing, who was immersed in the conversation of his friends in front of him, heard a slight sentence in his ears at this moment. It was He Tianran who was whispering to himself with his hands as a screen.
The girl asked, "Why do you think so?"
The man was stunned: "Uh...feeling? Anyway, that's how I feel. Brother Xiaoyong's statement is quite reliable."
"..."
"...Ai Qing, why don't you speak?"
A few seconds later, a smile suddenly broke out on Cao Aiqing's face, and she shook her head:
"No, I just thought about it and found that it is indeed possible!"
"Haha, right!"
Seeing a smile on her boyfriend's face, Cao Aiqing held his hand unconsciously, congratulated Tianran for a moment, and then the two intertwined their fingers.
"By the way, Master He, where is that boy Guo Huai?"
Xue Yong in front turned his head and asked.
"He happened to be on a business trip these two days, so he asked us to take some photos and post them in the group."
He Tianran responded.
At this time, a group of teenagers who looked like high school students passed by. The two teams looked at each other. None of the high school students were wearing sportswear, but they must have just finished the competition. The tips of their foreheads and hair were wet with sweat. They were wearing long-sleeved clothes. The school uniforms were casually tied around the waist, revealing the vests underneath. They each held a bottle of mineral water in their hands. Their eyes stayed on He Tianran and others for a moment before hurriedly walking in front of them.
He Tianran felt that the sight just now was a bit awkward, so he asked Cao Aiqing next to him:
"Shouldn't I wear a suit for an event like today?"
Cao Aiqing looked him up and down with beautiful eyes, shook her head and praised:
"No~ he's very handsome! Maybe they are envious of you!"
He Tianran has been working for more than a year now, so his dressing style has changed when going to work, socializing, meeting clients, and under the influence of the environment. Today, he is just like a refined and decent suit wearer. In terms of mentality, I no longer feel as restrained and cramped as when I first put on a custom-made suit last year.
"Oh, you are really good at complimenting others."
He Tianran reached out his hand and pinched Cao Aiqing's cheek affectionately.
"Hmm~"
However, before the commotion on their side lasted long, Xue Yong in front stopped the group of junior students who were about to leave.
"Classmate, stay."
The group of students paused.
"What?"
The person who answered was a boy with small bangs and a black vest. He was a bit delicate, but his tone of voice was quite stiff. He should be used to talking like this.
"Ah ha?" Xue Yong also calmed down his temper a lot after falling in love. He just smiled and asked: "No, I just want to ask something. Do you know Xue Yong?"
Xiao Bang looked confused: "What the hell?"
"...Xue Yong!"
A group of junior students looked at me and I looked at you, all shaking their heads.
Xue Yong's face suddenly felt dull. He originally wanted to show off his reputation in front of his girlfriend. After all, he had been in the third year of high school three times. During the five years in Hong Kong Middle School, he didn't leave any deeds that could be praised. He Tianran and the others almost laughed out loud when they saw how deflated he was.
Fortunately, Brother Xiaoyong also knew how to change the topic in time. He looked at Cao Aiqing on the side and suddenly thought: "Then...who is the beauty of the Hong Kong High School now?"
"Ah? There used to be a school belle named Xue Yong in our Hong Kong Middle School?"
"Hey, no, Xue Yong is the school bully, okay? I'm asking you...who is the school beauty now?"
Xue Yong was overwhelmed by the understanding ability of these little bastards. Among the group of boys, a boy wearing glasses couldn't help but replied:
"That must be Su Xiaotong, Class 12, Grade 3!"
"Shut up."
The leader, Xiao Liu Hai, stopped his companions from leaking the secret. He stared at Xue Yong with a bad expression and said:
"What are you asking about when you have nothing to do?"
"Why do you always have a thorn in your words? Why the hell can't I just ask..."
Xue Yong's temper also grew, and when he was about to explode, He Tianran stopped him, and he acted as a peacemaker:
"Hey, there's no need for your classmates to be so aggressive. Let's just ask casually. We are also graduates of Hong Kong High School. Where are your seniors?"
Xiao Liuhai glanced at the two of them and snorted coldly:
"Oh, seniors, right? We seniors have never seen anyone dare to call themselves seniors. Why don't we just call you teachers? How polite is that?"
"Hey, I'm sorry..."
Xue Yong was wondering why he didn't say anything yet, why did this voice come out all by himself? When he came to his senses, he realized, oh, it turned out that He Tianran couldn't help it.
"Jiang Ming, what are you doing!"
Seeing that the two groups were about to have a verbal conflict, a middle-aged woman's scolding voice appeared in time to stop them.
"Teacher Chen……"
When he saw the real teacher walking slowly towards him, the little bangs named Jiang Ming suddenly shrank his head.
The middle-aged female teacher came to the crowd with a sense of oppression. She first looked at the group of young boys and said to the leader, Jiang Ming:
"Jiang Ming, how many times have I told you that you need to cut your hair? If it grows longer, you may not be able to get into school."
"No, Teacher Chen, I... they were asking about Su... Su..."
"Su, what Su? Do you usually study hard? The four standing in front of you, two are from the University of Hong Kong, one is from the Hong Kong Normal University, and the last one... Other people are doing business to support their families. You are competing with others. Huh? Go, hurry up and bring water to the classmates, and compete in the 300 meters in the afternoon, so as not to make you unable to read well or run well."
When Jiang Ming and others heard this, they walked away in a hurry.
"Ahem...Teacher Chen...I, I'm in Nottingham after all."
Xue Yong's face was a little confused, but he still had to force his smile, because the middle-aged woman in front of him was also their class teacher when they were studying, Chen Mei.
Chen Mei glanced at the boy and said, "Hey, I rarely talk about you Xue Yong. I have been my senior high school student for three years, and you have been with me for three years. How do you want me to introduce you to junior students like you?"
Xue Yong was immediately speechless.
After saying that, she looked at Cao Aiqing and Bai Tingting on the side and said with a happy smile:
"Ai Qing! Tingting!"
"Sister Chen!"
The two girls, one on the left and one on the right, looked like two little birds, hugging their former mentor happily.
"Okay, okay, are you going back to school?"
"Well! Come back and see you."
"Good boy, good boy."
Loosening her embrace, Chen Mei looked at He Tianran aside. She adjusted her glasses and asked uncertainly:
"He, Tian, Ran?"
He Tianran smiled and nodded:
"To Teacher Chen, it's me."
"Tsk tsk tsk, oh, I haven't seen you in a few years. You have changed the most. I almost didn't recognize you just now. The introverted and shy boy at the beginning has now become an adult."
Chen Mei tutted repeatedly, and as Cao Aiqing returned to He Tianran, she also smiled:
"you……?"
He Tianran took Cao Aiqing's hand and introduced generously:
"Teacher Chen, Ai Qing and I have been together for more than a year."
Chen Mei couldn't help but nodded and said happily: "You are a talented man and a beautiful woman. This does not surprise me. When you two studied together in the past, I noticed that there should be this trend between you."
"Ah...Teacher Chen has a vicious eye."
He Tianran was still a little embarrassed.
Xue Yong couldn't wait to pull Bai Tingting, trying to get a word of approval from the teacher:
"Teacher Chen, Teacher Chen, Tingting and I are both fine! We are fine too..."
"What?!"
Chen Mei watched in disbelief as Xue Yong held Bai Tingting's hand in a show-off manner, and hurriedly separated the two. She grabbed Bai Tingting's hand, feeling distressed and reproachful at the same time:
"Tingting, you are confused, how could you choose him! You~ you..."
Bai Tingting was also aggrieved and said coyly:
"Oh, I was deceived by him, Sister Chen..."
"..."
Xue Yong was petrified on the spot and wanted to cry but had no tears.
