better hold on to that past

"Get up! Today is the Spring Festival, let's go to the movies!" Opening the curtains, the window is still gloomy, not sunny.Holding Luo Ran's hand in his hand, he smiled and said to those who were not fully awake.

"Watching movies during the Spring Festival? A unique tradition in your family?" Luo Ran's blurred eyes gradually became clear, and Luo Ran wondered what kind of New Year's tradition this was.

"No, my parents have gone out to visit relatives and friends, we have nothing to do at home, besides, we haven't seen a movie together yet." After preparing clothes for going out, I went to the bathroom to wash up.

Luo Ran smiled, indeed, this is something that lovers basically do, but they have never done it.Thinking of it this way, I have a little more expectation.

When we got to the bathroom, we stood beside Xiao Huaijin who was washing up, gently lifted her hair with his fingers, and said charmingly: "You can watch the movie in the afternoon, it's rare that uncles and aunts are not here... I haven't loved in bed for a long time." Pass you...or...you can love me..."

Looking at the alluring Luo Ran in the mirror in front of her, Xiao Huaijin rolled her eyes, knowing that she couldn't resist her temptation, and bullied herself every time.

After washing, the fragrance of facial cleanser mixed with the fragrance of toothpaste rushed over her face, making Luo Ran hug him intoxicated.

"The movie...you can watch it in the afternoon, but... you'd better be quiet. If my parents come back early, my mother may not be able to bear this big gift." After speaking, she turned around and left with a smile. Regardless of the resentful eyes of the other party.

After breakfast, I was bored.Xiao Huaijin was sitting on the sofa, eating snacks and watching the replay of the party. Luo Ran felt bored and walked to Xiao Nanju's studio.

The paint in the palette is still wet and looks like it has been used for a while.But the white paper on the drawing board is very clean, without a single ink spot.Luo Ran finds this very strange, since the paintbrush is still wet.

There are a lot of paintings in the studio, and it can be seen that the owner has poured his heart and soul into the paintings. The whole room is very large, and the paintings are not deliberately arranged. The whole studio has a kind of messy beauty.Most of these paintings are landscape paintings, and the colors are not complicated, which makes Luo Ran even more puzzled. In the wet palette, the colors are very colorful.

His eyes carefully inspected each painting, and finally, under the corner by the window, he saw a painting that matched the palette.Pick it up carefully, put it on the slanted tabletop, and start to look at this unique painting carefully.

The wet paint on it verified what I thought in my heart, it should be painted by Xiao Nanju last night.The tone of the whole painting is cold, and the background is the deep blue seabed. A girl is sitting there with her legs bent, her head gently resting on her knees.She is wearing a simple white shirt, a bit abstract, like a dress, covering her hips.The legs are white and slender, bare-exposed.The feet are also very small, without shoes and socks, and they are placed there side by side.The girl has pretty short hair, which is less charming and more naughty.The hair is a bit messy at the bottom of the water, but it gives people a very special visual impact.

The only bright spot in the picture is in the girl's hand. I can't see what it is, but it is very bright. It is not on the chest, but on the ground below her knees. She holds the hand tightly and tenderly. The bright spot, the intoxicating expression on the face, seems to be the most important treasure in life.

Surrounded by some fish, he was very attached to the girl, and kissed the girl's arms and ankles intimately.

Looking at this special painting carefully, Luo Ran was inexplicably impressed.The more you look at it carefully, the more flavorful this painting becomes.Glancing at the lower right corner of the painting, there seems to be something different, different from the background color of other seabeds. I squinted my eyes and looked closely, and found something different.In fact, the background is the same dark blue, but the words are written on it with another blue color different from the background. Although it is very hidden and obscure, and you can't see it without looking closely, Luo Ran can still see that. Two words, Ran Jin.

Seeing that Luo Ran had stayed in the studio for a long time without coming out, Xiao Huaijin followed strangely, and saw Luo Ran bent over, with a deep smile on his mouth, carefully looking at a painting on the table.

"What are you looking at?" He walked over curiously, and looked down at the painting.

"This..." Xiao Huaijin was stunned for a moment, this painting was too far from Dad's usual painting style.

"See what?" Luo Ran asked with interest.

"My dad...what does he want to express..." He muttered to himself.

"Look here." After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a hidden place in the lower right corner without touching the frame.

"Ran Jin..." whispered unconsciously, then widened his eyes and looked at Luo Ran.

"Hehe, it seems that our business...is a very special inspiration for uncle."

"How do you say? Can you see what my dad's painting wants to express?"

"In my personal opinion, inspiration comes suddenly. With the product of inspiration, it doesn't necessarily have to express something. What must be said may just express the inspiration in the mind and the feelings in the heart."

"Can't understand……"

"Hehe, let's just talk about this painting. The girl in it is you. Her short hair looks flamboyant, and her bare legs are not modified. The overall feeling is a bit rebellious. It also symbolizes that in my uncle's heart, we think our things are very bold. I am very rebellious. And I, the light in your hand, illuminates your life. Although I have no specific form, I am still held tightly by you and regard it as a treasure." Luo Ran said slowly according to his own understanding, As if she was in it.Although the latter sentence sounds narcissistic.

"Cut~ Can you be more narcissistic? Why do you think the girl is me, why not you?" He rolled his eyes at her.

"In the picture, the image of the girl is directly expressed. The light in her hand is the most implied meaning. It represents my different identity and position from your daughter in my uncle's heart. And... in the signature, I name in the front." Still so narcissistic, but inexplicably unspeakable.

"Okay, I'll let you be narcissistic. What about your name in the signature? What does it mean?"

"It means that uncle values ​​me, maybe... the status in his heart... is higher than that of you..." This sentence obviously deserves a beating.

"Luo Ran... I think you've been living too comfortably these past few days... Do you want to be trained..." After finishing speaking, he lightly picked up the other person's ear and left the studio.

"Ah~~ lady...it hurts...let go..."

The two of them went to the living room laughing and making noise, the air became sweet and greasy.

My parents didn't come back for lunch, so I ate outside with my friends.The two of them went out after lunch.

Sitting in the waiting room, looking at the movie ticket in his hand, the corners of Luo Ran's mouth twitched slightly.

"Huaijin, shall we... read Journey to the West?"

"It's Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons, directed by Zhou Xingchi. It had a good reputation before it was released." Xiao Huaijin said enthusiastically.

"Are you sure~~ My impression of Journey to the West... Only Tang Seng was kept being taken away, and after Monkey King tried his best to rescue him, he was taken away again..." The corners of Luo Ran's mouth were still twitching.

"Your view on Journey to the West is too one-dimensional. This film not only has a tribute and nostalgia for Journey to the West, but it is said to have very special elements. I have watched Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons. This is the second part, but the plots are not connected in series. I can understand."

"Well, I've seen that movie too, and I think it's okay."

"Oh, that's fine."

Grabbing the 3D glasses, the two entered the theater.Find your own seat and sit down, quietly waiting for the movie to start.

Seeing that many people around were holding all kinds of snacks and drinks, Luo Ran wondered why Xiao Huaijin didn't eat.

"Everyone around has snacks, do you want something to eat or drink? I'll go buy it, anyway there's still time." She asked the other party carefully.

"No, I'm used to being serious and focused on what I look forward to."

Looking at her serious attitude, Luo Ran wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.

"Hehe, um, I can see that you are like this to me."

"How can you bring everything to yourself? You really know how to put gold on your face." This guy is really becoming more and more narcissistic because of being spoiled by him.

"Hehe..." Seeing that the lights in the hall went out and the screen lit up, Luo Ran stopped talking and concentrated on watching.

The plot of the story is developing step by step, no need to think hard, the scene is very magnificent, and the 3D effect is even more shocking and incomparable, giving people a very exciting feeling.

Until the end of the movie, Luo Ran was a little surprised that the two of them actually watched the whole movie seriously, and nothing happened.Compared with the cuddling and even more intimate couples in the front row, they really just watch movies.

However, Xiao Huaijin didn't say a word from the end of the movie until he walked out of the theater. Luo Ran was puzzled, wondering what happened to the other party.

"What's wrong with you? You haven't said a word since the movie ended." Looking at the lonely face of the other party, Luo Ran was even more puzzled. "Is there something uncomfortable? Tell me..."

"No... I'm just... very touched by that sentence..." The tone was a little low.

"What words? In a comedy like this, there will be lines that make you depressed?"

"If you have experienced pain, you will know the suffering of all beings. If you have been attached, let go of the attachment. If you have been concerned, you will not be concerned. If you have such a deep obsession, can you really let it go? Luo Ran... I don't know what's wrong... The happier we are, the more disturbed I am...I'm so afraid...I'm afraid that you will become my past..." The tone is still very low, a little depressed, a little sad.

"I'm right here...where you can see and touch, Huaijin...I don't know how to make you feel at ease, but I will work hard...to make you so happy in the future..." Comforting the person in his arms softly, Luo Ran felt that Huai Jin was sometimes very fragile.Perhaps it was the anxiety brought about by this other kind of love, Luo Ran's distressed heart only wanted to love her more.

"Ran Ran..." Leaning in the other's warm embrace, she quietly closed her eyes.The painful line in the movie is still echoing in my ears. I remember this line in Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons. I didn't feel anything at that time, but now, the helplessness in my heart is stronger.

The two returned home, and their parents had already returned. Looking at the three people she loved the most in the room, Xiao Huaijin finally warmed up in her heart.She laughed at her own weakness and hypocrisy, which was really not like herself.

The author has something to say:

The wind is blowing, and the sky is about to change.The two of them have been sweet for so many chapters, and then... the storm is coming...
