Chapter 133 Two Beauties Meet
The early summer sunshine is gentle and warm, shining on the stone paths of the Peking University campus. The breeze ripples, and Liu Shishi's hair flutters. She walks side by side with Song Ci, leisurely wandering in it.
"When I was young, I had lofty ambitions. I was the best in the world! That's really well said, Mr. Song. How come you are so talented?"
The echo of the speech seemed to still linger in her ears. Liu Shishi's eyes were bright. She held her boyfriend's arm tightly, her face filled with happiness and pride.
"It's not that great actually, but seeing you in the audience gives me extra motivation, so I naturally speak harder."
Song Ci said with a smile, making Miss Liu grin. He gently squeezed his girlfriend's white and tender little hand, with a look of relief in his eyes.
The speech just now was indeed wonderful. The audience gave thunderous applause when it ended. The May Fourth Youth Day speech ended successfully, and I finally lived up to the trust of my class teacher.
Liu Shishi stopped and stared at her boyfriend seriously. "No, your speech just now was really wonderful. When you were on the stage, I felt that your whole body was glowing, and everyone around you was attracted by you."
After saying that, Miss Liu wrinkled her small nose and continued with a hint of jealousy, "Those girls were cheering your name and praising your handsomeness. One girl was the worst. She even shouted that she wanted to have a baby for you. She is totally shameless."
Seeing his girlfriend's cute look of "I'm not happy, I'm jealous", Song Ci couldn't help but tease: "Why do I suddenly smell jealous? No way, someone is jealous of strangers on the street. The little jealous jar is overturned again."
In the quiet Yanyuan, the strong scent of books permeates the air. There is a lush grove with leaves rustling in the breeze, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
The two of them were walking in the middle of the place. Song Ci saw Liu Shishi's figure pause and stop. He reached out and gently pinched her delicate face. "Why are you standing there like an idiot?"
Liu Shishi did not answer, but narrowed her eyes and stared straight at Song Ci's side and back. There was a hint of nervousness in her expression, as if she was facing a great enemy.
Song Ci noticed something strange, turned sideways and followed his girlfriend's gaze. He was immediately shocked to find that it was Shen Sisi walking towards him.
Miss Shen was wearing a simple white dress with a beautiful figure. The hem of her dress swayed gently in the breeze, like a blooming lily dancing in the wind.
Liu Shishi and Shen Sisi, today both girls are wearing dresses that highlight their slender and soft figures. One is gentle and graceful, standing tall and graceful; the other is beautiful and intelligent, free and easy and confident. They are all first-class beauties, each with their own merits.
Shen Sisi walked lightly with lotus steps and slowly came to the two of them. When she saw Song Ci, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. Then she cast her gaze on Liu Shishi. There was a complex look in her eyes, with reluctance and jealousy, but more of a determination.
She never thought that she had become a loser when she met her love rival Liu Shishi for the first time.
She had had a smooth life since childhood, but fate seemed to have played a cruel joke on her. Song Ci's rejection on Valentine's Day was like an icy sword, mercilessly piercing her heart.
In the first few days, pain followed her like a shadow. Shen Sisi often wandered alone on the quiet paths of the campus, recalling those few beautiful moments, and tears always blurred her eyes.
Every quiet night, when I lay in bed, Song Ci’s handsome face and his decisive words kept appearing in my mind, and I was so heartbroken that I couldn’t fall asleep.
But time is the best medicine to heal pain. As the days passed, she began to struggle to get herself out of the quagmire of pain.
Through reading, climbing mountains, and participating in various activities, Sisi gradually realized that there are so many beautiful things in life waiting for her to discover. Amid the laughter and joy with her friends, the haze in her heart gradually dissipated.
Now, when she thinks back to the experience of her confession being rejected, her heart is no longer as painful as it was before.
However, although she failed in love, she still believed that she could not lose the battle. Shen Sisi calmed down and spoke first: "Song Ci, your speech just now was really good."
"Thank you!" Song Ci was a little reserved and didn't dare to say too much. After all, Miss Liu was particularly sensitive to Shen Sisi, and if he said too much, she would get jealous again.
"Mu Xi, thank you for your praise for my Mr. Song." Although Liu Shishi's words were polite, they also concealed a sharp edge, and the air seemed to be filled with a tense atmosphere.
Shen Sisi stared at Liu Shishi's pretty face, as if she wanted to remember firmly in her mind this woman who made her taste the failure for the first time in her life.
"Shishi, I specifically asked you to come here today because I have something to say to you. Since we are meeting here, let's talk about it here."
Upon hearing this, Song Ci looked at the two of them in surprise. He didn't know that the two girls had an appointment today, and thought that Liu Shishi just came to listen to his speech today.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Facing the elegant and kind Shen Sisi, Liu Shishi felt a little unconfident. She held her boyfriend's arm tightly. The little brother beside her was her greatest confidence and courage.
Shen Sisi said in a leisurely tone, with a bit of sincerity: "Shishi, let me first say sorry to you. I have been hiding my identity and asking you about Song Ci. I am sorry for lying to you for so long!"
Liu Shishi was stunned. She had guessed what Shen Sisi's purpose was in asking her to meet her today. She thought that she might compete with her for beauty, or show off and declare war on her.
He even guessed that the other party might be pretending to be nice and was waiting for an opportunity to make a move, but he never expected that she would come up to him and apologize.
"Could it be that Mr. Song is here in person, so he is pretending?" Liu Shishi thought secretly, feeling that she had guessed the truth.
Sensing the vigilance and hostility in Liu Shishi's eyes, Shen Sisi said calmly: "Shishi, don't be nervous. I have decided not to pursue Song Ci anymore. I will go abroad to study soon and find a new journey that belongs to me."
When Liu Shishi heard this, she couldn't help but exclaimed, "You want to go abroad?"
Shen Sisi nodded and looked at Song Ci, her eyes carrying three parts of resentment, seven parts of relief, and a trace of affection that could not be given up:
"Song Ci, I originally thought that I was the most suitable person for you. Others say that we are a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman. I believe that if I give you some time, I will impress you, let you discover my goodness, and make our friendship change qualitatively.
I even envisioned what the scene would be like after we got married, and fantasized about how wonderful it would be to walk around the Peking University campus with our children many years later.
But when I saw the doting and loving look you showed to Shishi, I completely understood that no one could replace her position in your heart.
It turns out that you can also laugh so happily, so naturally, and so warmly. I always thought that you were a very cold person, but it turns out that it’s not that you don’t understand tenderness, but that all your tenderness is only for Liu Shishi.
You who study finance should like investing very much, but the most important investment in my life failed miserably. After meeting a man like you who is devoted and loyal, I am convinced of my defeat. "
Something seemed to be deeply touched in Song Ci's heart, and an indescribable sense of loss surged in his heart. A bright smile hung on Shen Sisi's face, like the brightest sunshine in early summer.
Quietly staring at Shen Sisi's bright eyes, this was the first time that Song Ci looked into Miss Shen's eyes for such a long and serious time. At this moment, her eyes were flashing with complex light, which seemed to contain the tenderness and immaturity of the past.
The eyes are the windows to the soul. Song Ci has the most direct feeling at this moment. Miss Shen's eyes seem to have thousands of words. There is nostalgia in her eyes, which is the recollection of the good times in the past; there is relief, which is the letting go of the emotions that have not blossomed and borne fruit;
There is also a subtle blessing, wishing him all the best, even if this happiness is no longer given by her. It is beyond words, gentle and restrained, as well as persistent and touching.
"Shishi, I really envy you! Song Ci is a very special person. He has his own dreams, his own gentleness, and his own fragility."
Shen Sisi paused for a moment, a flash of memory in his eyes, “In some ways, I know him very well, better than you think.”
His tone was firm, with a hint of unquestionable momentum: "If you don't cherish him in the future, can't give him love and care, can't be with him when he needs it, then I will definitely take him back without hesitation."
Liu Shishi refused to give in, and made a solemn and sacred oath: "Chen Sisi, you don't need to say more, and you don't need to be unwilling. If there is anyone in this world who loves Song poetry the most, that person must be me.
How long have you known him? How can you know my feelings for Song Ci? We met when my eyebrows were not well drawn, my foundation was not evenly applied, and I was bare-faced. I will give him all the romance and tenderness I have accumulated over the years, and accompany him until the end of his life. "
Shen Sisi smiled sweetly, looking at the golden boy and jade girl in front of her, she felt that she had lost fairly, and silently gave her blessing. "So you two knew each other so long ago! Song Ci, if, I mean if, I knew you earlier than Shishi, would I have a chance?"
Song Ci avoided Miss Shen’s gaze, without a trace of hesitation: “Sisi, you will always meet someone who is just right, who does not need to be deliberately accommodated, and you can act coquettishly at will.
I already have someone in my heart, and my choice has always been Shishi. No matter how many women I meet, it will always be her this time, next time, and every time. I will never change."
"Everything we meet is destiny, and everything we have is luck. Maybe I will meet some interesting people, but you will still be in your place. Shishi and Songci wish you a long and happy life together, and we'll see each other again if we are destined to."
Chen Sisi waved her hand, turned around and said goodbye. After meeting Song Ci and Liu Shishi today, she poured out all the depression in her heart. She finally felt relieved and could embrace the new life with a brand new attitude.
At this moment, the song ended and the crowd dispersed. The breeze in the campus blew gently, as if putting an end to this emotional entanglement.
Shen Sisi's back gradually disappeared in the lush Yan Garden. Seeing that Song Ci was not in high spirits and in a low mood, Liu Shishi pouted and said unhappily, "Why, you can't bear to leave?"
Song Ci shook his head: "No, but we are friends after all. Maybe we will never see each other again, so I just feel a little sentimental." There are always regrets and helplessness in the world!
"Mr. Song, can I ask you a question?"
"Um?"
Liu Shishi asked timidly, "You really didn't like Shen Sisi? She is beautiful, gentle, and knowledgeable. She can talk to you about everything, unlike me who only knows how to play games."
Song Ci's eyes were gentle and her tone was firm: "My relationship with her has never exceeded the boundaries of friendship. You are the only person I like. As long as you stand here and don't have to do anything, I will be filled with joy. This is my love."
A warm current suddenly surged in Liu Shishi's heart. It was a joy and happiness that could not be described in words. She blinked her bright eyes like a shining little star.
Unable to suppress her inner emotions, she slightly stood on tiptoes, wrapped her arms around the boy's neck, and gently kissed her boyfriend on the lips.
Song Ci also hugged his girlfriend's slender waist and expressed his equally passionate love in his heart with a passionate kiss. At this moment, it seemed that there were only the two of them in the world, immersed in this endless love.
The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, sprinkling on them in patches, outlining a dreamlike picture, witnessing this sincere and beautiful love.
After the tender moment, the two slowly walked to the shore of Weiming Lake, where ripples and sparkle appeared in the breeze. The weeping willows by the lake gently brushed their shoulders.
Song Ci found a quiet bench and pulled Liu Shishi to sit down. Miss Liu leaned lightly on the boy's shoulder, feeling his warmth.
Looking at the Boya Tower in the distance, Liu Shishi exhaled, thinking about going abroad, and felt relaxed. "I feel refreshed!"
"Master, do you have any plans recently?"
Liu Shishi thought for a moment and said: "Next week I will be recording the program "2006 Graduation Song" to prepare for my graduation from Beijing Dance Academy.
After that, I will prepare for The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Sister K has sent me the script, but I haven’t read it yet. During this period, I need to familiarize myself with the script and memorize the lines. I will join the crew for training in mid-July.”
Song Ci calculated the time and said, "The quadrennial World Cup will be held next month. As soon as the exams at school are over, I will take you to Germany to watch the World Cup."
Taking Liu Shishi out to play was one reason, and another reason was that he clearly remembered the results of the 2006 World Cup. This was undoubtedly a good opportunity to expand capital and prepare to make a fortune from European gambling.
Song Ci was familiar with buying football lottery, having bought it in 1998 and 2002. However, he was still young at that time, so it could only be considered a small venture. If he wanted to make some money, he had to go through his parents.
He can give it a go in this World Cup in Germany, but he also needs to plan carefully, after all, European bookmakers are not easy to deal with.
Traveling abroad, Liu Shishi became interested: "Really? It sounds great."
Sensing his girlfriend's excitement, Song Ci held her hand and said, "Of course it's true. This is a football feast held once every four years. Let's go and feel the warm atmosphere together. So honey, you have to hurry up and get your passport done."
