God said I would meet you

The sun gradually faded behind Lin Jinyu, and after the colored lights went out, the suddenly lit screen replaced it and became the brightest thing in the afterglow of the evening.Everyone was attracted by the huge light, and even Lin Jinyu couldn't help staring at the screen.

The white characters were round and chubby, very cute. Zhang Xinli stood behind Lin Jinyu, raised his head, and watched the picture tube change on the big screen with him.

The number representing the year slowly disappeared and remained silent all the time, as if the audio equipment they had placed had finally woken up from a deep sleep, and a few crisp birdsong suddenly sounded on the lawn.

Lin Jinyu stood quietly in place, the light and shadow changed, and the light blue light cast from the screen enveloped his face.

——After the number disappeared, an old photo appeared on the big screen. The water waves of Haizi were clear, reflecting the blue sky and pure white clouds. .

Lin Jinyu, Zhang Xinli, Mu Se, La Long, Zhang Wenbin, and Chen Hui who never came back crowded into the narrow screen. Some rolled their eyes comically, and some grinned and stuck out their tongues.

In the photo, there is a wooden wall between Lin Jinyu and Zhang Xinli, one is looking at the camera, the other is blank, not looking at each other.

That was Lin Jinyu's innocent and carefree 15 years old.

The birdsong stopped, and the singing sounded slowly in the stereo.

"You are on the left and I am on the right

First photo

I don't dare to be intimate"

In the stereo, Zhang Xinli's voice, which had already been recorded, was low and the melody of the song was brisk, but the lyrics revealed a faint sense of loss and nostalgia, and every sentence was full of hazy, young love.

Lin Jinyu had never heard him sing before, and was very surprised that this guy's level was not bad. After being modified by the sound card, his voice was gentle and deep, without any fancy skills, but the timbre was very good and the key was accurate, as if he was telling a story gently. Come on.

That photo stayed for a few moments like a bird with fluttering wings and then disappeared, taking away the blue sky, white clouds, green grass, and the cotton-like flocks of sheep in Liangshan, and replaced it with a bustling steel city.

The screen went dark again, numbers appeared again, and then photos full of memories.

On the sidelines of the playground that year, Zhang Xinli, who had a somewhat mature face, was sitting on a bench drinking water. His Adam's apple was prominent on his raised neck, and his sweat shimmered in the sun. Looking down at the phone beside him, waiting for him to finish drinking his water.

That year in the gymnasium, the winning basketball team took a group photo. Teacher Hu held up the trophy with a smile on his face. The screen was frozen with white teeth. Zhang Xinli stood in the middle, squeezed by Lin Jinyu and Xu Zhao. Someone put naughty bunny ears on his head.

Whoever drank too much at the celebration banquet that year was the beginning of their crossing the line.

"Too many feelings have changed

The world has changed or I have changed”

And that autumn, when the ferry on the Huangpu River passed by the Bund River, Zhang Xinli looked back in the bright yellow sunshine like ginkgo leaves; on the brightly lit subway in Chengdu, Lin Jinyu leaned her head on his shoulder with her hands in her pockets They secretly lead each other, and the window glass reflects two intimate gray and yellow silhouettes.

"Too long has been too long

forgot forgot forgot how it started

Drunk singing by the river

Love you forever is what I said"

The photos passed by frame by frame. They had so many memories that they could play a whole song. Lin Jinyu and Zhang Xinli stood together, surrounded by a bustling crowd, with sand and dust floating in the air, light and shadow on the screen flowing, and the singing was romantic .

Only this time, Lin Jinyu's youthful sportswear has been replaced by a mature and restrained suit. He is not wearing headphones, so that no one will misunderstand that he is delicate, and he is not listening to Yugo's sad song.

"No no no one can have

Like you, like me, you know how to cry and laugh

touch again

I've been hiding it in my heart for a long time

the softest corner"

The sound of the acoustic guitar is rigid and crisp, and the accompaniment is not the same as the original version. The rhythm is slower and has a touch of folk songs.

In the soft sea breeze, Lin Jinyu stared at those images that disappeared after a stay, and watched his and Zhang Xinli's faces in the photo change from youthful to mature, to what they are today.

They have gone through the school days, walked side by side in the best age, waited for the snow in the cold night, and also basked in the light of the day in the summer heat, witnessed each other's strength and seen each other's weakness, since 15 From the age of 25, joy, sadness, anger and loneliness are felt together, ups and downs, salty and light numbness are all tasted together.Their youth belongs to each other.

After singing, the video ended, and the extinguished lanterns came back on again. Amidst the sound of rolling waves, Lin Jinyu heard someone calling him: "Xiaoyu."

Lin Jinyu turned around and looked at Zhang Xinli, the sea breeze was hot.

Suddenly, a few familiar barks came from not far away, each with something in its mouth, led by Xu Zhao, running toward them.It wears a small black bow tie around its neck, like a gentleman dog, sticking out its tongue, and flicking its big tail like a feather duster.

?

Lin Jinyu's full of emotion was filled with surprise.Um?what happened?Why is this thing here?Shouldn't he be sleeping in a foster home in Shanghai?And what is that in its mouth?

Xu Zhao let go of the rope and walked away, so as not to be a light bulb.

Suddenly seeing the owner whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he ran up to them one by one silly.Under Lin Jinyu's bewildered gaze, Zhang Xinli bent down and took the box in his mouth.

"Xiao Yu," he, who has always been calm, was a little nervous, even more nervous than the first time he formally came to see Lin's father and Lin's mother: "I..."

Zhang Xinli actually rehearsed many times behind his back, but when the real swords and guns were put into battle, those well-rehearsed and carefully crafted lines suddenly couldn't be said well.

His inner thoughts are simple and sincere, without too many gorgeous colors, just a few words are enough to describe.

After giving it a box one by one, he squatted down aside, Lin Jinyu stepped on the shallow grass, quietly waiting for Zhang Xinli.

"Hey, hey," Zhang Xinli was about to speak, when Xu Zhao's loud voice suddenly rang out, "You just stand there and say it? Are you sincere, brother?"

Many voices laughed together with him and said, "That's right! Are you sincere!"

Those voices included men and women, high and low, old classmates from the attached high school and many strangers. Zhang Xinli was a little embarrassed, but he didn't make it too obvious.Lin Jinyu, who was confessed to, was also nervous. He stretched out his finger and scratched his nose, his tone seemed to be complaining, but he said embarrassedly: "What are you doing...it's not a big day..."

It's really not a big day, not his birthday, and it's not Valentine's Day, it's just an auspicious day for getting married.

A group of people headed by Xu Zhao were still booing, Zhang Xinli paused for a moment, and wearing that expensive suit, knelt down on one knee amidst the booing.

"Yo - that's right!" The crowd burst into a burst of happy laughter.

"Xiaoyu," Zhang Xinli looked at Lin Jinyu among the crowd, and said, "I... made this, but it's not about a marriage proposal...we can't get that certificate, even if we don't have that, we are still very happy .I just...just..."

Lin Jinyu stood in the center of the venue, as if there were 1 drumsticks beating the drum in her heart.

He faintly realized what Zhang Xinli was going to say, and that was an answer.

The longing for that answer had been suppressed in his heart for many years, and he had tossed and turned about it, but lost the courage to ask.

"Just what?" Zhang Xinli was obviously the one who should be nervous, but Lin Jinyu's palms were slightly sweaty, and her heart beat as fast as a drum.

That year he asked Zhang Xinli if he loved him, even if it was only for one minute, one second, or one breath.He wanted the answer, and he wanted Zhang Xinli to say it clearly and plainly.

Zhang Xinli looked at Lin Jinyu's tea-brown eyes, those eyes were so bright and charming, full of vigor and vigor, they were no different from the eyes he saw when Lin Jinyu hugged him for the first time on that sunny morning in Liangshan many years ago.

He looked into those eyes and said slowly, "I just want to tell you..."

They have all been afraid, evaded, hesitated, self-doubted and disgusted, and they have all been anxious and depressed about the various uneasiness and depression they will face in the countless years to come.

How much courage and determination does it take for a person to tell everyone "I love him so much" loudly and openly?At this moment, Zhang Xinli opened the box in his hand, facing the beach, the rising and falling sea, and everyone, and said to Lin Jinyu, "...just want to tell you, I love you, from a long time ago to a long time to come."

A little silver light in the box shone under the colorful lights. Zhang Xinli had deep eyes, and his hair fluttered in the sea breeze. He took out the ring, like a real gentleman, stretched out his hand to Lin Jinyu, and asked, "Would you like to come with me?" Do I spend the rest of my life together?"

Let's walk through this long and short life together.

Lin Jinyu was secretly delighted, but he looked at his serious and serious expression, deliberately kept quiet for a moment, did not speak to tease him, then stretched out his hand, put it in Zhang Xinli's hand, and looked down at his face, just like that year at the bonfire Bian Ban replied in eight words: "Be merciful and reluctant."

Zhang Xinli still remembered these eight words. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and put the ring on Lin Jinyu's ring finger.

Following his actions, the crowd who had temporarily kept silent to leave space for him to speak suddenly seemed to be collectively pressed the play button: "Wow——!!!"

Some people even whistled, and a series of "Congratulations!", "Come on!", "Be happy!" sounded like thunder on the lawn.

Surprised and excited booing and cheers spread to the entire beach, and other tourists turned their heads to look at their area. Those excited and heartfelt cheers covered the gossip for them.Amidst the cajoling like a tide, Lin Jinyu smiled, his smiling eyes flickered with subtle sparkles.Traveling through countless fragments of time, the question that he didn't have the courage to ask when he was 17 years old finally got the real answer today. He is so happy and happy.

On the stage, the man who had been playing the violin in the shadows at the side of the screen stood up, put the violin on his shoulders, and began to play Karen Mok's "So Many People in This World".

"There are so many people in this world

A door is open in the crowd

forever in my misty eyes

I first saw you in the blue morning"

Different from the palpitations full of hazy love in the song when the video was shown, the sound of the piano at this moment is lingering and long, with a three-point exclamation and a three-point tranquility, just like a smile that is still blooming fearlessly after all the disasters.

People looked at the place where the sound of the piano came from, and saw Lin Ye coming out from the side of the screen. Under the light, his neck-length hair was gently stretched in the sea breeze.

Lin Jinyu also saw him, but at the moment he was in no mood to give his attention to others.Lin Ye held the piano between his hands and closed his eyes lightly, as if he had completely immersed himself in the graceful music, and his bow-drawing fingers were like flying butterflies.

"A few frames flashed in the evening wind

Is the spin in the gallop gone?

Walking in the distant light, you are sunny

There are so many people around but the world is silent”

……

This is a song that is very suitable for the violin. Lin Ye's bow is gentle but firm. In the chorus of the song, Lin Jinyu asked Zhang Xinli to stand up and put another finger on his finger.

All the people around you are passers-by, and they turn around a thousand times, but it's still you.

Yiyi's big tail fluttered, and Lin Jinyu glanced at the little bow tie on its chest, and said, "You really either look like a straight man of steel, or you're all big."

And he is quite good at making full use of the resources in his hands. From humans to dogs, the Eight Immortals have shown their magical powers across the sea. I really underestimated his organizational ability.

"I'm not a straight man of steel," Zhang Xinli said seriously, "I'm gay."

That serious look looks like a long time ago in a TV series called "Legend of Bruce Lee", Bruce Lee won the game and shouted "I am Chinese" on the field, Lin Jinyu laughed to death.

"I don't care if you're bi or gay," he said.

He only cares about whom Zhang Xinli loves and his choice.

People around were yelling "Kiss me", Lin Jinyu felt embarrassed and wanted to run away - I listened to what I wanted to hear, and I put on the ring, what's so good about being here, why don't I hurry up and go back to my room after dinner, that's more than that Kiss one, you can do whatever you want.

Zhang Xinli did not move.He gave the box in his hand to Lin Jinyu and said, "Not only the ring, but this one too, for you too."

"What..." Lin Jinyu didn't know why, so he took it and found that there was another thing inside.

No wonder, he was only curious about a ring just now, it seems a bit big to put it in this box, it turned out to be a double gift.

He opened the box completely and looked down——

I saw that there seemed to be something under the small ring box in the big box, which seemed to be a few folded papers.Lin Jinyu took it out and unfolded it, and saw the horse logo leaping high on the cover page.

Isn't this... Isn't this the Ferrari logo?

He turned to the second page and saw four large characters printed on the title part: car order contract.

? ? ? ? ?

After being moved, Lin Jinyu's jaw almost dropped: "Have you ordered a car?"

"Yes." Zhang Xinli took it for granted, "I bought it and gave it to you."

Give it to me?Lin Jinyu was like petrified.

This, this, this... this is a dream!

He was shocked and asked: "Are you kidding, where did you get the money?"

According to Zhang Xinli's income level of 200 to [-] yuan per month, even if his salary has increased a little in the past two years, it is absolutely impossible to afford this thing. The bare car costs more than [-] million yuan.

"I'm not kidding," Zhang Xinli said, "I didn't promise you." He asked Lin Jinyu what car he liked, and agreed to buy him the one he liked.It's a pity that you have to queue up to order a car these days. Even in Shanghai, there are no stocks everywhere, so you can only wait for the quota. The contract stipulates that the car will be picked up next year, so I can't catch up with today.

But it's good, it saves the transfer of ownership, and can be directly registered in Lin Jinyu's name when the car insurance is completed.

"You won't sell your kidneys, will you?" Lin Jinyu still felt like she was dreaming: "Even if you only paid the deposit, there should be seven to eight million yuan. It's not enough to sell one, so you sold both?"

"No," Zhang Xinli didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "How is it possible?"

Lin Jinyu also made a wish, thinking that they would have sex before the age of 60, how could he sell his kidneys, absolutely not.

"Then what on earth are you..."

Before Lin Jinyu finished asking, another hand suddenly reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "Take it, he has his heart."

Lin Jinyu turned her head and saw Lin Ye, who had devoted himself to his duties as the humanoid bgm player, jumped down from the stage and walked to him at some point: "Don't worry, both of your boyfriend's kidneys are in good condition, and it won't affect your 'happiness' Life."

Lin Jinyu hadn't asked why he suddenly appeared here after disappearing for a year or two, but he came up with it himself.Lin Jinyu said, "Why are you here? Do you know where he got the money?"

Such a huge sum of money... Lin Jinyu's thoughts were running like a thousand horses, and he had even imagined that he had borrowed a loan shark. They would live a life of driving a luxury car and eating bran and swallowing vegetables to pay the huge interest.

"I travel all over the world, and it's not unusual to be anywhere." Lin Ye said, turning his head to look in the direction of the band, and there was a young man smiling at him.

He patted Lin Jinyu and said, "How did you get the money, you can ask your boyfriend."

Without waiting for Lin Jinyu to ask again, Zhang Xinli took the initiative to say: "I earned it myself, the salary of the unit, and the commission from your father."

Brothers can still settle accounts clearly, let alone father-in-law and daughter-in-law.Zhang Xinli himself has a job, but Lin Huainan always drags him to his company to do this and that, asks him to deal with projects, and even helps him with social engagements.

Zhang Xinli had a good capacity for alcohol, and he was like a duck to water in those commercial wine bureaus. Some of the bosses of good wine were happy to drink and called him a brother, and the contracts were naturally easy to grab.And for any project that he has contributed to, Lin Huainan will give him a fraction of the profit as soon as it turns a profit.

"That's not enough." Lin Jinyu thought about it. For two years, even if he was used by three people, went to work and helped his father, and still had to study, he could save as little as RMB 80 at most. The deposit on the car booking contract There can be a full [-].

"That's enough," Zhang Xinli replied, "I also made some money from financial management."

The most profitable thing is money.Zhang Xinli is industrious, able to endure hardships, and is also very accepting of new things. He will not be a miser like Grandet.Since he dealt with Ning Shengkai and came into contact with the financial industry, he has learned a lot of new things, learned to buy new debts and new shares, and occasionally got some news through his contacts, and managed his financial management in an orderly manner.

Lin Jinyu never misjudged him. Although Zhang Xinli's walk from Liangshan to Shanghai was due to luck, it was by no means accidental.

He finally realized his ideal and reaped his love.

"Also," Zhang Xinli seemed to have not finished speaking: "Your father gave me the remaining 7% of Yuxin Biotech's shares."

"Yuxin Biology" is the name of Papa Lin's new company. Lin Jinyu hadn't recovered from the previous shock, and now she was shocked again.

"What?" He didn't know about this: "My dad..." He didn't have any opinion on this, but suddenly, his dad wasn't the kind who would randomly give away shares just because someone had nepotism with him person: "Why did he give it to you?"

And Zhang Xinli accepted it, which is even more strange.

"He said..." Zhang Xinli thought for a while, and decided to tell the truth: "It's a betrothal gift."

? ? ? ? ?

What kind of play?

Fuck, I've been arguing for so long over the fierce 1 position, and it turns out... his dad is really awesome.

Lin Huainan did say so, but Zhang Xinli knew in his heart that there was another reason besides this, and that was ability.

"Also, you don't like business," he said.

This is the main reason.

Due to various problems left over from history, he has always been in charge of Ning Shengkai. Although the A round is in place, the capital chain cannot be broken. There are still several rounds of financing that need to be negotiated, and there is no suitable manpower to take over for a while. Zhang Xinli became the person in charge of this aspect. He's done very well.

Lin Jinyu had no interest in taking over the company, and she didn't know the business, but someone from Lin Huainan had to take over.

No one is more suitable than Zhang Xinli to do this for Lin Jinyu.

"That's it," Lin Ye put his arm around Lin Jinyu's shoulders, and said lazily, "Don't worry, he didn't sell kidneys, blood, or sperm."

Lin Jinyu: "..."

"You know that very well," he said.

Lin Ye laughed jokingly, and said, "It's inconvenient for us to contact him, and I have nothing to do with him. Anyway, Zhang Xinli is not my type."

In fact, he has no favorite type at all.

Holding those contracts, Lin Jinyu felt that they were extremely important.But Zhang Xinli looked at him calmly, as if the contract was not 80 yuan, but only [-] yuan.

"Xiaoyu, you don't have to feel burdened," he said, "You like it, so I'll give it to you, just like you gave me a mobile phone, a watch, and a necklace, it doesn't make any difference."

Lin Jinyu always liked to buy him things, everything Zhang Xinli liked, and things he thought would make Zhang Xinli happy and make Zhang Xinli better.Money is nothing before love.

Just like Zhang Xinli said, they both want each other to be happy, so that they can get everything they have lost.

Lin Jinyu looked at Zhang Xinli with those pieces of paper worth 80 yuan, his eyes were helpless and gentle: "Okay." He said, "It's disrespectful."

Anyway, he couldn't refuse Zhang Xinli, so let's accept it.

The wedding ceremony was all over, and everyone sat down again one after another, and began to enjoy the wonderful feast.

Huang Jiayao and his wife toasted table by table. When they came to Lin Jinyu's table, the bride smiled more happily than at other tables.When Lin Jinyu and Zhang Xinli stood up to wish her happiness, she replied, "I wish you happiness too", without the slightest concern that they stole her limelight at the end of her wedding.

That was the happiest and happiest day in Lin Jinyu's 25 years of life.

……

The sea breeze in Sanya was very strong that night, and people were not allowed to go into the sea after the sun went down, but there were still many scattered tourists strolling on the beach.

Most of Huang Jiayao and his old classmates from the attached high school drank too much. The guests went back to the hotel to sleep at night, while Zhang Xinli and Lin Jinyu held hands and walked along the coastline on the fine white sand.

The indigo waves rise and fall, a bright moon hangs high above their heads, and two rows of footprints stretch behind them, spreading from the distant, invisible past to the distant, unknown future.

"I love you." Under the waves and moonlight, Zhang Xinli whispered to him.

Lin Jinyu stared into his eyes and replied with the same words.

The two faces are no longer as green as they were when they were young, but in each other's eyes, they are still the same as they were in the past.

Lin Jinyu still loves him like she did when she was a child, but it's not exactly the same as then.

The azure sea water soaked her ankles, Lin Jinyu wrapped one hand around Zhang Xinli's waist, Zhang Xinli faced him, lowered his head, and the two kissed amidst the sound of the waves.

After returning to the hotel, they didn't bother to take a bath, and they had already kissed skin to skin in the hot and humid early summer night wind. Lin Jinyu stood on the balcony with his chest against the railing, looking at the endless black waves in the distance. Zhang Xinli stuck behind him, with both hands Looping around his body, clutching the railing.

Lin Huainan once thought that his son was ordinary and normal, and like countless ordinary boys, he would fall in love with a certain girl, and then get married and stay together. Something wrong made it all wrong at a wrong time. .

I don't know if his idea is right, in the crowd of countless people, in another parallel time and space, Lin Jinyu and Zhang Xinli may not meet each other, one of them is in the east, one is in the west, one is in the city, and the other is in the mountains, just like two Two distant stars with different orbits will not intersect even if they run for tens of millions of years.There is no medical certificate, no hospital, no treatment, and no need to quarrel with the family all day long.

They would live separately, find mates separately, then fade away and die separately.

But they still met, maybe only met this one and only time in thousands of universes.

……

This night, Zhang Xinli looked extremely excited, but also extremely gentle.They always stared at each other for a few seconds after a kiss, and then started a new round of lingering.

Lin Jinyu stroked his stubble and hard back muscles, kissed the scar on his palm that was left for him, and opened his body to let Zhang Xinli enter him.At the beginning, it will be swollen and painful, but after getting used to it, the full and tingling pleasure will come up.

The satisfaction brought by this kind of intimate contact cannot be brought by any other form of marginal contact. Lin Jinyu has never felt as safe as when Zhang Xinli entered him. At this moment, he was sure that he was in Zhang Xinli's place. Life is different, they are each other's only love.

Between moans, Lin Jinyu whispered in his ear, "In the next life, let's meet again."

Zhang Xinli pressed on him and hugged him, his sweat-drenched chest was broad and firm.

He kissed his ear, closed his eyes and replied, "Okay."

This is the tenth year they have been in each other's lives, the fifth year they have been in love, and there are many years to come.

The balcony windows were left open, and the sea breeze entered the house, blowing the curtains and the hair of a couple of lovers.

It is summer again, the autumn leaves are quiet and beautiful, and the summer flowers are gorgeous.

In the summer of that distant year, in the yard of Zhang Xinli’s home, Lin Jinyu once explained Tagore’s "Flying Birds" to him and said to him: "Use limited time to find your true self, leave no regrets, and die in silence."

There is another line in the poem:

"I stand before you at the end of the long day. You will see my scars and know that I was hurt and I am healed."

【Back tune·Passing through hardships ([-]) Troubled love (end)】
