Of course there were no stars that night. In Liang Fu's distant childhood memories, Chongcheng was a city without stars.
But tonight in Fu Yucheng's arms, she saw stars, bursting out from the depths of his eyes, sinking into her heart, and stirring like flint in her stomach.
Liang Fu felt that she would never forget this kiss for the rest of her life. After hearing such a story, it felt as heavy as a brand.
At this time, language is redundant.
Liang Fu lay on Fu Yucheng's knees, her hanging hair tangled between his fingers. When he touched her sweat-dampened forehead, he stroked it with his palm, then lowered his head and kissed her smooth forehead.
Her forehead hair is always fine and frizzy, and her uneven hairline gives her a childish look like a little girl, which allows her to reconcile the two contradictory qualities of purity and charm.
"Fu Yucheng." Liang Fu spoke first, "...I didn't have any premeditation."
"Say it like I have."
Liang Fu couldn't help but protest: "You said you wanted to ask me for a reward."
"I almost forgot. Senior sister's thinking is a bit dirty."
"Fu Yucheng!"
Fu Yucheng pressed her shoulders, as if to stop her from running away. Liang Fu was even more annoyed by his action and stood up to argue with him.
Fu Yucheng was obviously sitting back and waiting. As soon as she raised her face, he took advantage of the situation and kissed her again.
But she frowned, said "Huh", raised her hand and patted her forearm, making a "pop" sound.
Fu Yucheng: "..."
Being close to the shore and water, with lush vegetation and rampant mosquitoes, it is not a good place to fall in love.
Follow the road until you reach the bright road.
After leaving the carefree environment just now, they gradually felt a little embarrassed, and walked side by side all the way, but did not talk. When the elbows touch each other, there will be a tacit agreement to give half an inch.
And during this long period of silence, Liang Fu gradually realized that this "junior brother" was a talker, but in actual combat... he was far from showing the "experience of hundreds of battles" commensurate with his face.
Why she would acquiesce in the fact that he is a man who has gone through many hardships is also a matter worth exploring.
Liang Fu sat on the suitcase, pinching the red bumps freshly bitten by mosquitoes with her fingernails, "Fu Yucheng, take a taxi to take me back."
Fu Yucheng looked at her as if he was kidding. Not to mention how long it takes to travel thirty or forty kilometers back and forth, just like this... go back?
But he didn't say anything, just said: "Okay."
Liang Fu looked at him and laughed as if she was full of bad intentions.
After a while, they hailed a taxi and got in it.
Fu Yucheng put the suitcase into the trunk, got in the car and told the driver about his destination, then opened the window and lit a cigarette.
Liang Fu came over and insisted on grabbing him. She usually smoked those playful ladies' cigarettes, but when she tasted his, she coughed and almost couldn't breathe.
Fu Yucheng patted her back and asked coolly: "Do you still want to grab it?"
Liang Fu came over slowly, leaning on his shoulder with a smile, and when she tilted her head, her breath brushed behind his ear, "Still grabbing it."
She bit his cigarette and refused to give it back to him. She pressed her arm on the back of the passenger seat and said to the driver, "Master, please turn right ahead."
"Aren't you going to the east of the city? How do you turn right? Don't take the expressway?"
Liang Fu said: "I won't go to the east of the city." She reported the name of a mid-range community, which was completely opposite to her destination, in the west of the city.
Fu Yucheng looked at Liang Fu in confusion.
The trick was successful, Liang Fu smiled a bit slyly, "Zhou Tan has a house in the west of the city. When it is empty, he rarely goes there to live in it. The door is a combination lock... I know the code."
Fu Yucheng raised his eyebrows.
The expression on the driver's face in front of him was a little hard to explain, and it was obvious what he was guessing.
Liang Fu, however, looked magnanimous, "After you send me back, I still have to travel so far back to school."
In fact, we all know that we are reluctant to let the night end like this. It is so lingering that it is worth a whole night of insomnia, a whole night of tossing and turning, or a whole night of long conversations.
Because Zhou Tan would have people clean the house regularly, it was still clean. Liang Fu just sent a message to Zhou Tan in the car asking to borrow it. Sister Tan immediately responded with a fierce reply. Liang Fu blushed and argued: "Let's go and have a rest for the night! His dormitory is closed."
Zhou Tan replied: "Yes, yes, you just can't get in."
Liang Fu was so angry that she locked her phone and refused to reply.
There was a Lawson's not far from the community, and they went there to pick up some toothpaste, toothbrushes, towels, toilet water and other things they expected to use tonight.
Fu Yucheng took it to check out. Liang Fu glanced at the things placed next to the cashier, and then quickly turned her eyes away.
Liang Fu had been to Zhou Tan's house before. Sometimes she stayed out too late and when it was relatively close to here, she would come and stay with Zhou Tan. Later, for convenience, she even put two sets of clothes in there.
After entering, she opened the refrigerator door with ease and brought Fu Yucheng pure water.
On the sofa, Fu Yucheng was reading something on his cell phone. Liang Fu took off her shoes, stepped on the floor barefoot, and tiptoed over. Her business ability was reflected in her footwork. Her movements were light and soft, as silent as a cat. Fu Yucheng didn't seem to notice at all.
When she reached him, Liang Fu quickly reached over, but he locked the phone faster than she did.
Liang Fu missed it and was not upset. She smiled and said, "You are so vigilant. What can't you do to show me to senior sister?"
"Since I can't show it to senior sister, of course I can't tell senior sister either."
Liang Fu stretched out her hand to push him, "If I don't bother you, go take a shower first."
After Fu Yucheng took a shower, he went directly to the bedroom. He didn't ask such pretentious questions as whether he would sleep on the sofa or on the floor. Tu Zeng was embarrassed when he asked, and later he had to think of an excuse for the two of them to lie together. It's such a fuss, it's better not to ask.
Liang Fu had to pack her suitcase, remove her makeup, wash her hair and take a bath, blow-dry her hair, and do some night care... With this set in place, less than an hour was not enough.
Fu Yucheng originally wanted to wait for her, but he hadn't had a full night's sleep since his internship. He couldn't open his eyes once he closed them, and he didn't even have time to dry his hair.
When he woke up, he noticed that his side was sinking slightly. Liang Fu stretched out her arm and gently put it on his chest.
The movement was gentle, obviously not to wake him up.
When he opened his eyes, the lights were out.
Should he continue to sleep like this, or pretend that he just woke up. When he hesitated, Liang Fu was ready to withdraw her hand.
Fu Yucheng didn't have time to think anymore, he grabbed her arm and turned around.
Liang Fu was so frightened that she took a breath and realized that he had put his arm around her waist and held her head with his other hand. He paused for breath for a moment, and then kissed her slowly, following the shape of her lips in the darkness.
Liang Fu was actually very conflicted about bringing Fu Yucheng here so late. On the one hand, she felt that if she had to do this, it would not be impossible, but on the other hand, she felt that if she was too hasty, she would regret it.
She didn't want the night to end like this, so she stayed together. Even if she said anything, it would be nice, but "You come home with me, but you are not allowed to do anything" was too contrived and overt, and she couldn't say it out loud.
Of course, you will feel dissatisfied. Now that the window paper has been pierced, the only way to go is "to be honest with each other". The only difference is whether it is faster or slower, sooner or later.
At this moment, she felt that it was hasty, at least she was sure that she would not regret it.
However, Fu Yucheng stopped.
The palm of his hand rested on her ribs. An inch higher might be the critical point of losing her sanity, and it stopped right here. His arms went down, hugged her waist, and held her completely in his arms.
"Fu Yucheng..."
She moved forward slightly, and Fu Yucheng guessed that she felt it. He didn't hide it deliberately because it was too obvious and couldn't go away for a moment.
Liang Fu felt her ears burning. She pressed her palm on her heart, her heart beating too exaggeratedly. Panic, and the need to remain calm while panicking, had used up all the running memory in her brain.
After a silence, Liang Fu moved closer to her. She was curious and wanted to ask the unanswered question, "Fu Yucheng, what did you want to ask me when you had a fever last time?"
I heard him laugh in the darkness, "...Which fever did you have?"
"Just let Fang Qingqu practice it for me."
Fu Yucheng deliberately teased her: "Is there any? I don't remember."
Liang Fu was so angry that she kicked him.
In the darkness, I heard Fu Yucheng ask leisurely: "Have you ever played chess?"
"I have played it before. When I was young, I was forced by Lao Liang to learn Go... These are all bad memories, what's the matter?"
It seems that they can't always say those cliché and conclusive promises. Are they afraid of being laughed at by the other party, or are they worried that they will lose their status, or both?
Fu Yucheng still called her "senior sister" with a hint of teasing, rubbed her lonely wrist bones with his fingers, and said, "I will have no regrets about this matter."
They went to bed very late that night, and Fu Yucheng held her in his arms and picked up the story in Park Square, saying that this was his original intention of studying law, and that he hoped to be a person who could help others get a chance to clear their wrongs. Even over the years, facts have constantly told him that this is just the presumption of an idealist.
But if he could complete a case like this in his lifetime practice, it would be his ideal, and he would be able to get out of the nightmare where blood and brains were splattered all over the floor.
Liang Fu hugged him instead, no longer having any charming thoughts.
This man attracted her so much because he was always the one in the crowd with indifferent eyes but firm eyes.
She thought of his involuntary protection in front of the office building tonight. He completely blocked her view from behind. It was originally because she was afraid that the suicide of an unrelated person would become a shadow that she could not escape for a long time.
Later, he talked about his father again, starting with his name. Fu Rusong, written on paper, is a three-character structure with a stable structure. Song means "mountain high and big". It was one of the first seven characters he recognized when he first became literate.
Fu Rusong was an upright and peaceful person, gentle and kind to everyone, unlike him who was always brooding and depressed.
Because he is not good at flattering, he sometimes appears clumsy.
He likes to repair clocks, and he still has a set of tools for repairing clocks hidden in a drawer at home.
He did not do evil or hide anything, and he lived an upright life.
…
After finding an exit, Fu Yucheng told her all the memories he could still remember.
Like a child who has been speechless for a long time, when he regains his voice, he is eager to tell others the various obstacles in the long silence.
Liang Fu rarely interrupted and only used hugs to show that she was listening and accompanying.
His vulnerability was clear, and she had to treat him reverently.
Later, they saw through the cracks in the curtains that the sky was getting brighter, and the warm orange light broke through the darkness inch by inch.
