After the movie began, the light in the theater dimmed, and the sound of the movie was very good, hitting people's eardrums and hearts with a bang.

Gu Mingxi's tense nerves gradually relaxed. In this dark cinema, he put away all his defenses, leaned lazily on the chair, and greedily felt the familiar breath of the girls beside him. She was eating popcorn, but she did not forget to reach her hand to his mouth to feed him. She occasionally sucked a sip of Coke, and the gurgling sound...

Gu Mingxi had no idea what he was playing in the movie, so he just moved quietly and stuck to her tighter. Thanks to the person who designed this couple, he closed his eyes and gently sniffed the fragrance on her hair, thinking in his heart.

Pang Qian wouldn't know that this was Gu Mingxi's last chance to indulge himself. He indulged himself in closeness with her and forgot the troublesome things behind him: his mother's terminal illness, high medical expenses, poor academic studies, a bleak little city, unreasonable relatives, a house that he couldn't live in, a middle-aged daughter's father and his young remarried wife...

After leaving City Z for a while and leaving those people and things, Gu Mingxi admitted that he was relieved, but he still shouldered the responsibility on his shoulders. The outside world was bright and bright, and he had to go back to his mother.

At some point, people must learn to give up and learn to compromise. Gu Mingxi faced his unpredictable future, and he wondered whether he should give up his little crab.

The movie has been in action for forty minutes, and the plot has begun to reach its climax. Pang Qian seemed to be fascinated by watching it. She stuffed a popcorn into her mouth and picked two popcorns to Gu Mingxi's mouth.

The light was very dark, and she didn't turn her head, but for a moment, she was completely stunned.

Her right index finger touched Gu Mingxi's mouth, which was the position of her cheeks, and the nerves on her fingers were so sensitive. In just a moment, she felt the little wetness on his mouth.

Pang Qian turned her head, popcorn fell from her fingertips, and her fingers touched his cheek again. This time, he turned his head away, Pang Qian's heart was beating wildly, and she simply reached out and stroked his eyes.

He didn't give her another chance to explore, and suddenly turned his head away from her hand and lowered his head. He lowered his head deeply, Pang Qian raised her neck slightly, and her forehead pressed against him.

Their breathing was very light, and they were breathing on each other's faces, with the sweet fragrance of popcorn. Gu Mingxi raised his head, his lips touched her eyebrows, his Adam's apple slid, closed his eyes, and gently printed a kiss between her eyebrows and eyes.

The warm liquid fell silently, Pang Qian's left hand was still holding the popcorn, and her right hand maintained the previous position, resting on his shoulder. She closed her fingers and slowly grabbed his collar, while Gu Mingxi's lips slowly moved downward and pecked on her cheek.

Pang Qian's face was already very hot, but she didn't hide. Gu Mingxi kissed her carefully. He kissed her nose, and then both of them froze.

They were gasping deeply, and they could hear each other's violent heartbeat. Pang Qian's fingers pressed on the artery on his neck, and the pulse was thumping, as if it was about to break through the blood vessels of the skin and burn into her blood.

Pang Qian never moved, did not hide, nor did she cater to her. Finally, Gu Mingxi's body moved for a moment. He tentatively searched, as if facing the most unique treasure in the world. He lowered his head slowly. When the cold lips touched her warm and soft lips, the world no longer existed at this moment.

The popcorn in Pang Qian's hand was scattered on the ground, and the falling empty bucket shocked the little couple in the seat next to her. They just glanced at the next seat curiously, and their attention returned to the movie screen.

Pang Qian wrapped her arms around Gu Mingxi's neck and her legs were also placed on his legs. Her body was like a soft snake. She raised her chin and closed her eyes and accepted his kiss like a storm.

Her cheeks felt the tears he shed, and the liquid with his body temperature fell drop by drop, without any sound. She couldn't help but hold his cheek with both hands and wiped away his tears with trembling fingers.

She choked sobbing that she couldn't help herself, and her body trembled. She once again smeared the corners of his wet eyes. In the darkness, Gu Mingxi finally opened his eyes. His eyes were as gentle as water, and his dark eyes were like the brightest star in the sky, staring quietly into her eyes.

Jackie Chan on the screen is getting stronger and stronger, jumping up and down, fighting hard, and the loud sound of crashes and explosions rumbling to Pang Qian and Gu Mingxi's ears under the screen, but they seemed to have never heard of it. In the second half of the movie, Pang Qian kept holding Gu Mingxi's waist, resting her head on his shoulder, and staring blankly. Neither of them spoke until the end of the movie.

When I walked out of the cinema, it was already evening. The sun was setting. Gu Mingxi and Pang Qian were standing on the side of the road together. Not far away was the subway station. Gu Mingxi said: "Pangpang, it's quite late, I have to leave."

Pang Qian suddenly grabbed the hem of his clothes, but there was no reason for him to leave him. In desperation, she said, "Let's have supper together."

Gu Mingxi: "No need, you're going home after tomorrow's holiday?"

Pang Qian immediately shook her head and looked at him and said, "It doesn't matter if I don't go back. Gu Mingxi, are you still in Shanghai tomorrow? If you are here, we will go to Zhouzhuang to play tomorrow, or to Xitang, it will be very close."

He didn't speak for a long time, and after a while, he said, "Okay, let's have dinner together. Can you go back to your school to have a meal? I want to go to your school cafeteria."

Pang Qian nodded repeatedly: "Yeah, okay, our first canteen is quite delicious."

She took Gu Mingxi back to school by car. It was already dark. This was a day before the National Day holiday. Many students from Shanghai and surrounding areas left school and went home. There were many people carrying luggage walking on the campus. Pang Qian and Gu Mingxi walked very slowly. While walking, she introduced him to the scenery she saw along the way.

The campus of the University of Finance is small, with narrow roads and old buildings, but it is clean, elegant and peaceful. The school is full of green trees, fresh grass and trees, and the lake is full of water, which has a petty bourgeois mood.

Standing in front of the sculpture "Ambition in the Clouds", Gu Mingxi stopped. The sculpture was not big. On the top of the stone was an eagle with flying wings. He raised his neck and stared at the eagle until Pang Qian said on the side: "Go away quickly, the cafeteria will be out of food in a while." Gu Mingxi took his gaze back.

Most of the wealthy buildings are made of red tiles and gray walls, and the first canteen is no exception. The canteen is very large. When Pang Qian and Gu Mingxi walked in together, they still attracted some attention. Pang Qian cooked two meals, sweet and sour rice, stir-fried cabbage, spicy chicken diced chicken, and fried eggplant with sauce, and ordered two poached eggs for Gu Mingxi.

She gave him a full of rice and said, "You are too thin, eat more. I will see you next time, you must be fatter."

Sitting down at the table, Pang Qian brought chopsticks, took out wet wipes from her bag, and sat beside Gu Mingxi to help him clean his feet. Someone passed by them and saw Pang Qian say hello: "Crab, haven't you gone home?"

Pang Qian raised her head and said with a smile: "Well, my friend comes to see me and spends a few days with him in Shanghai."

The man glanced at Gu Mingxi and asked in a strange tone: "Boyfriend?"

Pang Qian blinked her eyes and seemed to be smiling: "No?"

Gu Mingxi kept listening to their conversation. When the man left, he put his right foot on the table, picked up chopsticks and started eating.

Pang Qian kept picking up the dishes from her rice bowl into his bowl and said, "You try this, it's delicious."

Gu Mingxi said: "I'm enough, you can eat more yourself."

"I'm losing weight."

"Why are you losing weight after you've lost so much weight?" Gu Mingxi frowned and glared at her, "Girls shouldn't lose weight casually, it's very harmful to the body."

"I know, you're so annoying." Pang Qian said, but she smiled and asked Gu Mingxi, "Is the food in our canteen delicious?"

"tasty."

“Is the big canteen delicious?”

Gu Mingxi had eaten in the cafeteria several times and shook her head: "It's not delicious."

"No wonder you have become so thin, don't be picky about food." Pang Qian was very anxious, "Even if you don't like to eat, you still have to eat it."

Gu Mingxi looked up at her and smiled: "I understand, I will have a good meal."

Pang Qian also laughed, pouted, and asked again: "What did you say to you just now? Let's go to Zhouzhuang tomorrow. I haven't been there yet."

Gu Mingxi thought for a while and said "yes".

Pang Qian bit the chopsticks and smiled happily: "Then let's just say that."

After dinner, it was already dark. Pang Qian and Gu Mingxi walked slowly on campus. Gu Mingxi took the initiative to talk about Pang Qian's study for the first time and said, "I thought about it. You said that you want to work for two years after graduation and then choose a major for postgraduate entrance examinations. It makes sense, but will it be more difficult to take the exam? Most of the graduate students in your school have direct promotions. Why don't you strive for the opportunity to be admitted to the postgraduate entrance examination?"

"I just have a consideration for majors." Pang Qian said, "You have to know that different majors work in different fields, and annual salaries are very different. I just fill in undergraduate majors. I didn't understand at the time. If I study for a master's degree in the future, of course I should be more cautious, not to get a diploma. Gu Mingxi, do you know? It's the senior sister I told you who came back to study for a master's degree. She used to work in the four majors, and her annual salary was more than 200,000 yuan, but after studying for a master's degree, she said that her annual salary could reach 500,000 yuan. If she went to the United States to study for a doctorate, I didn't dare to think about it!"

"Well, you really need to think about professional issues." Gu Mingxi nodded and suddenly laughed, "Pangpang, you are really good now."

Pang Qian didn't understand: "What's good?"

He said: "Everything is good, serious, hardworking and enterprising. I finally no longer think about what I eat and drink in my mind. I know that I have to consider my future."

Pang Qian beat him: "What are you eating and drinking? Do you think I am a pig!"

Surprisingly, Gu Mingxi did not jump to her like before. Pang Qian's fist really hit him. She said "ah" and quickly went to rub him: "You are a fool! You don't hide."

He smiled so hard that he showed two tiger teeth: "I haven't been beaten by you for more than a year, I'm happy."

She shouted dissatisfiedly: "Who hits you!"

They walked to the school gate, which was the place where they met in the morning. Under the street light, Gu Mingxi looked at Pang Qian's face deeply. He had many things to say to her, but he didn't know how to speak.

He wanted to tell her that he should not stay up late at night, go to bed earlier and get up earlier, which is better for his health;

He wanted to tell her not to eat too much roadside stalls, those things are unhealthy. Of course, it doesn’t matter if you eat them occasionally when you are greedy. In addition, don’t eat tooth decay, as it will easily cause tooth decay and will also affect your body;

He wanted to tell her that when he had his period, he really should not eat cold and spicy food anymore. His stomach hurts so he drinks some brown sugar and warm water, so he doesn’t think it’s troublesome;

He wanted to tell her that her parents are old and she should learn to be sensible. She should not talk back to her parents when she goes home, but help them with some housework, because one day they might suddenly fall down;

He wanted to tell her that if a boy with good conditions came to chase her, she could try to date the other party. She is almost twenty years old and will not be said to be early in love by parents. Of course, as a girl, she must be smarter and know how to protect herself;

He wanted to say to her, Pang Qian, you are a very good girl. If you love life so much, you will be favored by life in the end. You will live a happy and fulfilling life, have a happy family, a satisfying job, a healthy body, and finally, a simple and happy heart.

You will have busy work, spend half a month off every year, and take your children out with your husband. You will have a table of cosmetics, a cabinet of beautiful clothes and shoes, you will have your own social circle, and you will have a caring best friend. You will go shopping, eat and go to the fitness center to play a few table tennis.

You will have a big house, leaping floor, or even a terrace house. You will raise a dog and grow many flowers. When the sun shines into the house, you will sit on the spotless floor with a pillow and happily tease your children.

He wanted to say a lot to her, but in the end he said only one sentence: "Pangpang, can you hug me?"

How could Pang Qian let him down? She opened her arms and hugged him hard, her heart full of sweetness, and her breath was filled with the familiar breath of his body. Her cheeks were pressed against his chest, feeling his warm body temperature, and said, "Tomorrow at 8:30, I will be here, we will see you."

"Yes." Gu Mingxi closed his eyes, rubbed his chin against her hair, and said, "But you can't swear anymore."

"Okay!" She felt relieved and replied with a smile.

Finally, Pang Qian relaxed her arms and took him into the taxi. Gu Mingxi sat in the back seat of the car, and Pang Qian smiled and waved to him: "See you tomorrow."

"Bao Pang, goodbye." He looked at her, his lips curled up, and his smile looked particularly beautiful.

At night, the shark took Gu Mingxi to the train station and handed him the sleeper train ticket for the evening.

Before leaving, he asked, "You really plan to never contact the little crab again?"

Gu Mingxi nodded: "She and I... are nothing yet. To be honest, I was worried about her. If I was not by her side, I was afraid that she would be bullied. But now I found that over the past year, she has been really good, much better than I thought. I underestimated Pang Qian too much. She is a smart girl who knows how to take care of herself and how to fight for the life she wants. So, I think I can leave with confidence."

Shark didn't understand: "Then you don't have to contact her? You can always continue to be friends."

"Brother Shark, let me give you an example." Gu Mingxi turned to look at him and said calmly, "Pang Qian and I, we are two trains that are aligned. In the past, I was a little faster than her, and I drove forward with her. She could never catch up with me. Sometimes I would stop and wait for her. One day, we encountered a fork in the road, and we had no choice but to drive on two roads. I kept telling myself that I could still meet her when I got ahead, and then we could continue to join the rails and walk forward together. Maybe she thought so too. But later, as we drove, we found that the two roads we had forked were not arcs, but straight lines, straight lines in two different directions. The further I drove forward with her, the further away, and her speed was getting faster and faster, but I was getting slower and slower. I realized that even if I could break the straight track into an arc and go to her, I probably wouldn't be able to catch up with her."

shark:"……"

"There are many trains on the track in front of her, and she should choose to go hand in hand with them. If I drag her behind her, she will always feel a little reluctant, which will affect her speed. So, I think I should not contact her anymore."

The shark asked, "What if one day you catch up?"

"If there is really such a day..." Gu Mingxi smiled and shook his head and said, "I am really not suitable for dreaming. I'll think about how to get my mother to get better treatment."

The shark sent Gu Mingxi into the station and hugged the young boy: "I promise you that I will not disclose your whereabouts with the crab, but you must also assure me that I cannot break off contact with me. If you have any difficulties, call me."

Gu Mingxi nodded: "I promise."

The shark patted Gu Mingxi on the back: "That's good, kid, have a good journey, take good care of yourself."

Pang Qian was so excited that she didn't sleep well all night. She grabbed Yang Lu and chatted for a long time, and said, "I'm in love."

After dawn, Pang Qian dressed up well. On the 55th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the whole country celebrated. She wore a beautiful dress to the school gate, and also wore a straw hat, and had a crab keychain she bought in the aquarium the day before. She originally wanted to be with Gu Mingxi alone, but when he left, she forgot to give it to her.
