stay gold

Chapter 20

In the evening, the sky had cleared up, and the setting sun shone on the wet road, shining golden lights one by one. Lin Ye walked on the innermost side, stepping on the red bricks washed by the rain, towards the school gate.

Probably due to psychological effects, Lin Ye always felt that there was a slight peach fragrance around him. When class was over just now, Chen Mo stuffed him with a peach, and for some reason, he stuffed him another with a smile.

When Lin Ye walked to the door, he didn't see the family car, but the phone in his pocket rang.

Gu Ren's voice was also full of joy on the phone: "Xiaoye, turn left when you leave the school gate and walk until you reach the first intersection."

"Okay." Lin Ye smiled back at him, then put the phone back in his pocket, and walked forward as Gu Ren said.

The road on the left is very wide, and I heard that if you go straight along that road, you can reach the beach, but Lin Ye has never been there, because going to the beach alone always seems to symbolize some kind of fruitless waiting.

At the first intersection, Lin Ye stopped and stood where he was. A grain of rain fell from a camphor tree leaf by the roadside and landed on Lin Ye's neck, making it a little cool.Lin Ye touched it with his hand and gently wiped off the water stains.

The sound of a bicycle came from behind, a smile appeared in the corner of Lin Ye's eyes, and he didn't look back.As the bicycle passed by him, Lin Ye smelled a very familiar scent, which was exactly the same as the laundry detergent on his body.

Gu Ren drew a beautiful arc in front of him on the bike and stopped in front of him.

"Xiao Ye, get in the car." Gu Ren smiled and reached out to pick up Lin Ye's schoolbag.

Lin Ye heard Gu Ren's voice, and there seemed to be a cool evening breeze, a red sunset, and rainy camphor inside.

Lin Ye smiled and handed him the bag, sat in the back seat, hugged his waist tightly, didn't ask where he was going, it didn't matter where he was going.

Gu Ren kicked up the car, the cool wind gently slid over his arms and cheeks, the wheels ran over the long shade of trees, and the trees on both sides receded slowly.

"Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?" Gu Ren asked with a smile.

"I'm not very hungry," Lin Ye pressed Gu Ren's clothes against her cheek, and Gu Ren changed into a very comfortable T-shirt, the fabric was soft and smelled good. "But I went to a ramen shop last time, it tasted very good, and I want to go with you."

"Where?"

Lin Ye thought for a while, "Let's go later, there should be quite a lot of people at the gate of the school."

Gu Ren replied with a smile: "It's okay, if you're not hungry, then we'll go later."

Lin Ye nodded and asked again, "By the way, where did you get the car?"

"It's in exchange for overtime pay." Gu Ren replied with a smile.

At noon, Qin Yi called him and said that he would send him overtime pay in person. When Gu Ren arrived home, he saw a brand new black off-road parked at the door.

Gu Ren told Qin Yi that he wanted to replace the four-wheeled one with two-wheeled one, and then Qin Yi angrily left the car keys to him and left. In the afternoon, he got another two-wheeled one. And considerately added the back seat.

As the sky gradually darkened, Gu Ren rode all the way. Although there was no slope and it was not very strenuous, after riding for a long time, there were traces of sweat on his back.

"Take a break." Lin Ye touched Gu Ren's clothes with his hand.

"We'll be there soon, do you see the seaside?" Gu Ren raised a hand and pointed to the distance.

Lin Ye looked in the direction of his finger, and there was indeed a piece of dark blue connected to the sky, and there seemed to be some unclear light floating there.

"In summer, there will be a fluorescent sea. I don't know if I can see it today." Gu Ren said, "It doesn't matter if you don't see it, I can bring you here every day."

"Okay." Lin Ye replied.

The beach in the distance is getting closer and closer. After the bicycle passes the last tall tree beside the road, the complete beach spreads out in front of you. The sand, sea water, and the dark blue sky seem to be integrated, but they are distinct.

Gu Ren parked the car on the road by the sea, took Lin Ye's hand and walked towards the beach.

The seaside wind brought more humidity and salty coolness, blowing the hair of the two of them, leaving a moist mist on the skin.

The two of them stopped and sat on the beach very close to the sea. Gu Ren smiled and turned to look at Lin Ye. It was lucky that they really encountered the fluorescent sea tonight.

Although the sky has not completely darkened, but where the sea water meets the beach, you can see some tiny blue rays of light. As the waves slowly rush forward, the front ones are left on the beach, and the ones behind are left behind. The waves flowed back.

Lin Ye looked at Gu Ren, his eyes were full of smiles, Lin Ye had never seen such a calm and delicate sea in his memory, the wind and waves came slowly, like telling a gentle bedtime story.

Gu Ren hugged Lin Ye's shoulders, and the two of them leaned against each other, quietly watching those blue rays of light float over and over again.

When the sky finally completely darkened, those blue rays of light gathered more and more, spread out along the entire coastline, floating on the sea and reflecting the mysterious night sky, like a brilliant blue galaxy falling into the world.

"Gu Ren, I have something to tell you." Lin Ye looked up at Gu Ren with serious eyes.

Gu Ren replied with a smile: "Coincidentally, I have it too, you tell me first."

"Okay," Lin Ye smiled slightly facing the sea: "I've decided what to do in the future, and I will do what you like with you."

Gu Ren tightened her arms around his shoulders and said, "It's been too hard."

"What you can do, I can do too."

Gu Ren lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "I can do it because you weren't there at that time."

The waiting time is the longest, especially when there is no deadline, so if there is one thing that makes people forget the time, they don't care how hard it is.

Lin Ye was silent for a while, looked up at Gu Ren and said, "I can do it because you are here."

Gu Ren stroked his hair with a smile: "Well, anyway, you can understand everything."

Gu Ren looked at the shimmering sea surface for a while, then turned her head and asked with a smile, "Can't you hear what I'm thinking? Then let me tell you what I'm thinking?"

Lin Ye thought for a while, then smiled confidently, "Okay."

"Is the sea beautiful tonight?"

Lin Ye looked at the sea with a smile on his face, as if he already had the answer, but he had to hang around for a while before asking, "Do you love me?"

"Correct answer," Gu Ren asked with a smile, "Then what's the answer?"

"It looks good." Lin Ye replied softly facing the sea.

Gu Ren took Lin Ye's hand, let go of Lin Ye's shoulder with the other hand, took out a small silver ring from his pocket, and put it gently on Lin Ye's ring finger.

"I love you." Gu Ren looked into Lin Ye's eyes and said softly.

Gu Ren once thought about many ways, how to say "I love you" enough to express "I love you", but found that no matter how beautiful the language is, how beautiful a sentence is, the words still don't convey the meaning. "I love you" is the only sentence in this world that cannot be replaced.

Lin Ye looked into Gu Ren's eyes, only to realize that the thousands of stars were shining, but they were no match for the affection in his eyes.

Lin Ye took another ring from Gu Ren's hand and put it on his hand. When he raised his head, the words he wanted to say were swallowed by Gu Ren directly, turning into an affectionate and long kiss.

Lin Ye thought that Gu Ren must know what he was going to say, the night sky, the sea, and the blue galaxy tonight knew it all.

Gu Ren held Lin Ye's hand, feeling that his hand was a bit cold, "Let's go, let's go eat noodles."

"Okay", Lin Ye held back tightly, his fingers touched the ring on Gu Ren's hand, and a smile appeared on his face.

The two of them rode back slowly along the way they came under the starry sky, and the sound of the bicycle rolling over the road was particularly pleasant.
