confession
Author: Wang Feifan
Wen Zhong and I were classmates in college, and because of our like-mindedness, we became very good friends. We often go for a walk by the lake on campus and impromptu poems that we find beautiful. The art building is on the lakeside, and once we passed by and heard the beautiful sound of the piano, such as the ring of the ring, passing through the piano room and melodiously playing in the ginkgo trees under the setting sun.
The first time Wen Zhong heard Xue Yi play the piano, he was deeply attracted by her. Xue Yi's ten fingertips are pointed and slender, tall like a model, with a sweet smile, and the vitality of youth is exuded throughout her body, but there is a princess pride hidden in her bones.
Since then, Wen Zhong has been in the bedroom, often talking about the pleasant sound of the piano that he encountered by the lake, and the beautiful Xueyi. And vowed to confess to Xueyi. But when to confess to her without provoking the teacher is a question. Everyone spoke freely and expressed their opinions. Finally, it was decided to set the location of the confession downstairs in Xueyi's bedroom, and asked a physics department buddy to design a heart-shaped circuit made of small light bulbs, which was powered by batteries.
When Wen Zhong confessed to Xueyi, he borrowed a suit and leather shoes from my life, and then stood in the middle of the flickering lights with flowers in his hand, asking us to help him shout Xueyi's name loudly. It's just that the weather that day was not very good, and the sky had been rolling with dark clouds, but this did not affect Wen Zhong's determination to confess to Xue yi in the slightest.
Our hysterical shouts alarmed the girls in the whole dormitory, and suddenly the balcony became lively, and a few little girls took out their cameras: "Promise him, promise him!" Wen Zhong looked at Xueyi on the balcony, as if solemnly declaring to the brightest star in the night sky: "Xueyi, since the first time I heard the beautiful piano you played, I have been fascinated by you, and I am willing to accompany you over the mountains and mountains to the end of the world..."
Suddenly there was a thunderclap in the sky, and a bolt of lightning tore through the black oppressive clouds, followed by a downpour. Wen Zhong was shocked and shivered. But Xue Yi on the balcony was expressionless, as if it had nothing to do with her. Wen Zhong stood there in a daze, drenched in rain into a soup chicken. We hurried to help him clean up the mess and fled back to his bedroom after a losing battle.
A roommate smiled and said, "Wen Zhong, you are not sincere with Xueyi, otherwise why would you cause thunder when you confess, and you almost got thunder, confession is risky." The whole dormitory laughed.
"Friends don't look for them at school, there is no grass at the end of the world, Wen Zhong don't hang himself on a tree." I don't know who said something that seemed to be philosophically comforting him. Wen Zhong was silent, and after a long time he said quietly, "I didn't think it through, how did I not expect that there would be thunder and rain?" ”
Later, on weekends, Wen Zhong moved bricks on a construction site in the suburbs, and he said that for Xueyi, no matter how tired he was, he would have to make money, and we admired Wen Zhong, who was emaciated and tanned by the sun. But apart from giving him inexperienced advice, we are no longer able to help him, because we have no experience of confession, and love is a luxury, and our pockets are shy is the norm.
Since knowing that Xue Yi often went to practice without breakfast, Wen Zhong bought buns, steamed buns or dumplings and waited at the door of the piano room. Xue Yi said, "I don't eat these, you can leave it to yourself to eat." “
Wen Zhong said, "It doesn't matter, after eating breakfast, I have the strength to play the piano." ”
Xue Yi stopped speaking and practiced the piano with self-care. Xueyi's girlfriend said, "She doesn't eat, give me something to eat, I haven't eaten breakfast either." Wen Zhong shook his head in disappointment.
"I don't eat your breakfast in vain, tell you a secret, Xueyi likes to eat fried rice noodles, but also put more squeezed vegetables."
Wen Zhong was so happy that he went upside down, and soon the hot fried rice noodles were placed next to Xue Yi's side.
A trace of emotion flashed in Xueyi's eyes, but she then said, "Wen Zhong, I don't deserve you like this, don't spend energy on me." ”
Wen Zhong pretended to be free, smiled and said, "If what I say is too presumptuous, and there are still practices that make you feel uncomfortable, please don't take it to heart." You're so talented and beautiful, I want to be friends with you. “
Xue Yi's face looked better, and she took the fried rice noodles while eating them and said, "Don't send me breakfast anymore, you spend all the money on me, what do you eat?" ”
Wen Zhong said: "I am working on infrastructure in my spare time, and I have money. ”
Next, Wen Zhong ran more diligently, and also worn out his only pair of sneakers, and we often saw him wearing slippers to class. But he spends money on Xueyi, very generously, from brand-name clothing to expensive shoes, as long as he figures out that Xueyi likes it, he will buy it unequivocally.
On Wen Zhong's birthday, we said, "Boss Wen, I wish you a happy birthday, and on the occasion of your birthday, invite our brothers in the dormitory to have a meal." He reluctantly agreed, but said he wanted AA.
Halfway through the meal, Wen Zhong suddenly got up and said, "You eat slowly, I also made an appointment." Then he ran away in a puff of smoke. Soon we heard a familiar voice singing: "I don't know why this is so, love is not what I think, or I can't find the direction of you, let alone how to forget..." Looking at the sound, it turned out to be Wen Zhong, who was singing affectionately to Xue Yi at the table, and the table was placed on the snow-white tablecloth, exquisite tableware, and food. The red heart-shaped balloon on the side was swinging slightly, like Wen Zhong's fiery beating heart. Wen Zhong held the microphone in his left hand, and in his right hand he was holding a rectangular object wrapped in red wrapping paper, what it was, we were all guessing.
When the music stopped, Wen Zhong said to Xue Yi word by word in a thick baritone voice: "Xue Yi, I still can't help but confess to you, I know I don't deserve you, but I can't go against my heart that I like you, I will try to make myself more and more excellent, try to shorten the gap with you." You have rejected me many times, but I just can't let myself die, and today I want to promise you one thing. When he said this, Wen Zhong unfolded the rectangular red paper bag, and a red brick appeared in front of our eyes. The whole audience was in an uproar, and Xue Yi's face suddenly became no longer good-looking.
"Xueyi, this brick was asked for from the boss on the construction site, and I sincerely ask you to try to accept me." After you accept me, if I am disloyal to you, you can pick up this brick and throw it at me at any time, even if it makes me see Yama, I will have no complaints. I will pave the way for your life and hold your hand together towards a happy future. "Together, together!" The people around them began to boo, and the two waiters sprayed streamers around them.
Xue Yi wiped her eyes, and large tears rolled down.
Wen Zhong held the flowers in one hand and the red slab brick in the other, straightened his waist and walked to Xue Yi.
"Promise him, what a sincere boy!" A girl shouted out, and those present echoed.
Xue Yi hesitated for a moment, glanced at Wen Zhong, and took the flowers in his hand. Cheers, screams rang out from all around. When the warm atmosphere tended to be calm, Xue Yi said solemnly to Wen Zhong: "Thank you for all this for me, I am really touched, I'm sorry, I really can't accept you, you go to find a girl who likes you." ”
Xue Yi left, leaving behind the delicate bouquet of roses and the stupid Wen Zhong.
Wen Zhong, who was too drunk to drink that night, was so drunk that we helped him to the bedroom, and he didn't say a word all night except vomit. Worried that he would not be able to think straight, I took a leave of absence from my teacher and stayed in the dormitory to take care of him.
Wen Zhong finally woke up and said the first thing he said was to drink water. When I put down the cup, I said with some discomfort: "Didn't you say that Heaven rewards hard work, I worked so hard, why can't I impress her?" ”
Wen Zhong no longer mentions Xueyi, we are too, Wen Zhong in addition to desperately running and playing every day, venting the unhappiness in his heart into sports, is desperately studying, Sunday afternoon also stayed in the library. When he graduated, he became a teacher and later transferred to Changsha. I just never confessed to any girl again.
When he went to Changsha to participate in the new curriculum reform training, Wen Zhong said on the phone that he would invite a few of our classmates who came to participate in the training to dinner and wash the dust for us.
When I was registering for the training, I felt that someone had bumped into me in the back, and I looked back and saw that it was Xueyi, who told me that after graduation, I became a music teacher and also came to participate in the training. I said, "Wen Zhong is in Changsha, invite us to dinner tonight, let's go together." Xue Yi hesitated, nodded, and said, "Okay, you send me the address, I'll go and say hello to the leader of the team." ”
The moment Xue Yi appeared in front of us, Wen Zhong was suddenly stunned, standing there motionless, only the corners of his mouth were trembling. Xue Yi greeted everyone at the scene generously, and at the end, Chong Wenzhong smiled and said, "Teacher Wen, I haven't seen you for a long time, thank you for your hospitality." ”
Wen Zhong woke up like a dream and said, "Yeah, I haven't seen you for a long time, you're still so young and beautiful." But he immediately turned to the others: "You are not welcome, tonight I am a guest, one is to do the friendship of the landlord, and the other is to thank everyone for the collective financing for the meal of my birthday that year." ”
During the banquet, Wen Zhong picked up a glass of juice to salute everyone: "Everyone, after dinner, I invite everyone to watch a movie, there is a Hollywood blockbuster tonight." Everyone agreed, but Xueyi did not express her position and sat there quietly. Wen Zhong asked tentatively to Xue Yi, "Teacher Xue Yi is only used to watching movies with her boyfriend, right?" ”
Xue Yi looked up: "Who said I had a boyfriend, I am still a single dog." ”
Wen Zhong suddenly became excited: "Then I still have a chance to confess to you." ”
Xue Yi smiled and asked, "What do you really like about me, is it the reason why you superficially think that my appearance is still relatively high?" ”
Wen Zhong shrugged his shoulders and said, "You don't need a reason to like you, but if you really need to, ten thousand reasons is not enough." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, as if they had a tacit understanding, crossing time and space, going through thousands of mountains and rivers, and quietly appeared in front of them.
At the beginning of the movie, we know that it is not a Hollywood blockbuster at all, and Wen Zhong left the scene halfway, until the end of the movie, did not appear, when we were ready to get up and leave, Xue Yi sat there with some loss, staring at the screen in a daze.
Suddenly, the accompaniment music of Che Jiling's "The Farthest You Are My Nearest Love" sounded from the cinema, and a voice that had gone through the vicissitudes of the years came: "The night has been silent, the heart says to whom, refuses to turn back, all love is missed ..."
"It's Wen Zhong!" Xue Yi was almost screaming.
"Xueyi, this is the last time I confessed to you, if before I finish singing the second paragraph, you promised me a confession, be my girlfriend, please come up to the stage." 」
At this time, a row of text appeared on the screen: Xueyi, be my girlfriend, love your Wenzhong forever.
Xue Yi stood up, almost running onto the stage, she hugged Wen Zhong, lying on his shoulder, and couldn't cry.
Wen Zhong gently wiped her tears for Xue Yi and said, "You haven't answered me yet, are you willing to be my girlfriend?" ”
"You liar, who also said that it was a Hollywood blockbuster, confessed that there was no rose, and told me how to promise you." Xue Yi replied shyly.
Wen Zhong slapped a ringing finger at the corner of the stage and said, "Hollywood blockbusters will start soon!" As soon as the words fell, I saw 999 red roses slowly descending from the sky above the stage.
Xue Yi took the microphone in Wen Zhong's hand and sang Faye Wong's song "I Do"...
