Fu Shize: “Yeah.”
Yunli observed his expression. Seeing that he had nothing to say, she lowered her head in annoyance and said, "Buy a house, buy a house."
You can buy a house without getting married.
Yunli comforted herself.
After looking at houses for a whole day, Yunye, holding his cup of milk tea, just wanted to lie in the car and not move.
The real estate agent in the back seat of the car was still enthusiastically selling his house. Yunli was particularly concerned about his first house and listened carefully to what he said.
Fu Shizhe's phone vibrated, and Station E prompted a post that he had missed a few hours ago.
Xianyun Didajiang: [Today, Xianyu tries to find a nest]
There are a lot of comments below, such as [I love you, wife], [Wife, come to my bed], [I have warmed the bed for my wife], and [Wife, wife].
He looked at Yunli, who was still listening obediently to the agent's sales pitch.
Fu Shi turned off his phone without saying a word.
After the review opinions were returned, as expected, all of Fu Shize's were excellent. Yun Li's last opinion came back relatively late, and when she received it, she breathed a sigh of relief, all of them were excellent.
Looking at Fu Shi Ze, there was a sense of self-righteousness in his eyes, as if things were supposed to be this way.
The defense was held at Nanjing University of Science and Technology, and Fu Shi accompanied Yunli back to Nanwu. The bed at Beishan Fenglin was relatively soft, and when Fu Shi asked her opinion, Yunli chose to stay at Beishan Fenglin without hesitation.
On the first night, Fu Shi accompanied Yun Li in defense practice and turned off the lights and went to bed early.
The formal defense was on the next day. After she finished her presentation, the judges asked a bunch of questions, which she had to answer after everyone else had presented their work.
Yunli received nearly ten questions and was so nervous that sweat broke out on his forehead.
Fu Shi went outside first and sent her a message: [Come outside.]
Yunli's limbs were a little stiff because of nervousness.
"Relax." He rubbed her head with a smile in his eyes.
Fu Shi used two minutes to help her divide the ten questions into two categories and separate the logical lines in them. Yun Li listened to his unhurried speaking pace and his calm expression, which made her feel that this matter did not seem that difficult.
Yunli calmed down a bit and answered according to his reasoning. When she met his gaze, it seemed that she had always been so gentle and firm.
She looked around and couldn't help but lean over and kiss him on the face.
Yunli relaxed and smiled: "Why are you so nice?"
Fu Shi stroked her face and said, "My Lili is also very good."
At the end, the professors on site gave unanimous excellent scores.
Yunli's advisor never revised her master's thesis. Many nights, after Yunli returned home from Western University of Science and Technology, Fu Shi would stay up late in the office to revise her thesis.
When the judges announced the scores, her first reaction was to look at Fu Shi Ze. He sat quietly in the corner, but he was in a position that she could see whether she was sitting or on the podium.
He was always in her sight.
So she can always get the most direct support.
Fu Shi handed her the flowers and said, "Lili, you're graduated."
Yunli laughed uncontrollably and hummed vigorously.
After returning to Beishan Fenglin, it was as if all the burdens and pressures were put down. Fu Shi no longer restrained himself and pushed her into the room. Yun Li half-reluctantly said, "I still want to take a shower!"
Fu Shize: “Yeah.”
He pushed her into the bathroom and filled the bathtub with water.
Yunli sensed his intention and walked back to the door with a red face. Fu Shi laughed, and hearing the threat in his tone, Yunli whispered: "I'll go get the flowers and add some petals..."
…
When Yunli woke up the next day, she felt like her body was about to fall apart. Fu Shi woke up early and prepared breakfast for her and brought it to the small table beside the bed.
Yunli glanced at the time.
“…”
It’s only nine o’clock.
Fu Shi sat next to her and pulled the quilt up to cover her exposed skin: "Let's go somewhere today."
"My whole body aches, I can't walk." Yun Li was a little grumpy after waking up, so she turned around and ignored him, staring at the white wall for a long time. Fu Shi didn't say anything else, she struggled for a while, and then pretended to be indifferent and asked him, "Where are you going?"
Fu Shi laughed.
This laughter seemed to tell Yunli that she was so fucking spineless.
"There is a wedding dress shop in Nanwu."
“…”
A bunch of random thoughts in his mind were instantly thrown out of the window. Yun Li squeezed his palms and asked dryly, "What's wrong?"
"Go and have a look."
She still had her back to him, and Fu Shi put his knees on her chest, took two steps, and sat down beside her casually: "Don't you want to go?"
“…”
Fu Shize: "If it hurts, go back next time."
Yunli didn’t know when he would be able to return to Nanwu next time.
She moved, sat up and stretched, then met Fu Shizhe's triumphant gaze and calmly crawled out of the quilt.
Along the way, Fu Shi didn't talk about today's arrangements.
Yunli felt itchy and asked tentatively, "What are you going to do in a bridal shop?"
Fu Shizhe: "You can post a video of your store visit on E-station. It's quite popular now."
His tone was serious, and Yunli's fantasy was instantly shattered.
Feeling disappointed, Yun Li immediately lost interest in today's schedule, and his tone was already full of obvious rejection: "But I have watched a lot of technology and science videos now..."
Fu Shi asked her, "Can't I?"
Yunli met his gaze, not understanding why he was so insistent. After parking the car, she said nothing, and neither did he, pulling her forward.
As they approached the store entrance, an idea flashed through Yunli's mind, and he said in disbelief, "Do you want me to make an official announcement?"
After a moment, Fu Shizhe hummed.
Fu Shizhe: "The whole network is calling you..." He paused, lowered his voice, and said with a hint of ambiguity, "Wife."
Yunli blushed and pushed him away from her right ear.
He glanced at her: "I didn't even shout."
Yun Ye happened to send her a message asking about the defense. Yun Li interrupted their conversation and said hurriedly, "Wait a moment."
Fu Shi stood beside her and waited patiently. After seeing her reply to Yun Ye's message, she switched back to the main WeChat chat interface and glanced at her nickname. Fu Shi said calmly, "I was wrong. It should be that our identities are swapped."
“…”
He continued: "Can we exchange identities tonight?"
“…”
"Let's go in quickly." Yun Li was eager to change the subject, so he pulled Fu Shi into the bridal shop. A retro, heavy-duty wedding dress was hung in the center of the shop. With the spotlight shining on it, one could see the delicate embellishments and hollowing out.
Yunli stared at it for a long time, completely forgetting her resistance, and said to the salesperson: "I want to try this one."
The salesperson smiled apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, ma'am, this is a custom-made piece and you can't try it on."
Yun Li lowered his eyes and saw a small name tag above it, which read 'Mr. Fu & Ms. Yun'.
“…”
She looked at Fu Shi Ze, and he said casually, "The first time I went to your house, I said I had prepared a gift for you."
The wedding dress was custom made for nearly half a year and was only recently completed. Several shopping guides came to the fitting room to help Yunli put on the dress, but she didn't react and let them do whatever they wanted.
The curtain in front of her slowly opened, and her figure appeared in the floor-length mirror.
Yunli stared at himself in the mirror in a daze.
She turned her head, and Fu Shi looked at her, his eyes motionless.
She didn't know how to react for a long time, she just stared at him. She saw her reflection in his eyes and asked nervously, "Does it look good?"
Fu Shize: “Yeah.”
After the initial brief shock, Yun Li's heart was filled with joy. Wearing a wedding dress was a dream many girls had when they were young, not to mention that this one was custom-made for her by Fu Shi Ze.
Yunli looked at the floor-length mirror for a long time and glanced at Fu Shizhe.
She was a little awkward and said slowly: "But this thing seems to be useless if you don't get married."
Fu Shi sat on a white solid cube beside him, his legs apart, his whole body slender and straight. He did not answer immediately, but thought for a while, then raised his eyes and asked her: "Do you want to get married?"
“…”
Before they knew it, they were the only two left in the fitting room.
Yunli realized that he had changed into a custom-made suit and leather shoes, sitting comfortably in the same place, with the spotlight reflected in his dark eyes. Yunli was more than a meter away from him, and she tried to slow down her heartbeat.
Under the light, Yunli's skin was fair and translucent. Her strapless wedding dress revealed her smooth shoulders. The skirt, dotted with crystals, was two meters long and dragged on the ground. She was the only one among them.
There was a slight thumping sound.
Fu Shi was holding a small pure white box in his hand, gently rotating it on the flat surface of the cube, as if he was playing with it.
He leaned back casually, supporting himself with his right hand. Yunli stared at him blankly until he raised his eyes to look at her. Yunli held her breath.
It seemed as if he had anticipated what was going to happen.
The man in front of her had three-dimensional features, a clear jawline, and a slightly cold demeanor that made people afraid to approach him. He looked at her calmly, the box in his hand still spinning on the plane.
Yunli couldn't help it and whispered, "Don't get drunk..."
Fu Shizhe laughed, and the coldness on his face disappeared. Yun Li looked at the smile in his eyes and felt as if he saw the gentle smile of the boy in the video.
He opened the box with one hand, glanced at it, and looked at her: "Let's get married after graduation, okay?"
"..." Yun Li resisted the urge to nod and urged, "You're not formal enough."
After all, the suits were put on.
Yunli saw him stand up slowly and approach her step by step, his gentle eyes always on her until they stopped in front of her. She saw him slowly kneel down on one knee, his body still straight.
Submit to her willingly and completely.
At the moment, they are all in the spotlight.
The world seemed to be condensed into a tiny space, just big enough to accommodate the two of them.
My breathing seemed to stop.
His eyebrows were relaxed, and there was affection in the corners of his eyes: "Lili, will you marry me?"
Yunli's vision began to blur and she wiped her tears with the back of her hand while smiling.
"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent." He held her hand, "Once you agree, you can't go back on your word."
……
After returning to Xifu, Yunli and Fu Shize picked out a few houses that they were satisfied with. Originally, Yunli wanted to choose the one that was between the company and Xi'an University of Science and Technology, so that Fu Shize would not have to get up too early.
In the end, Fu Shizhe chose the one that was closer to her company, which only took her less than ten minutes to walk there.
One afternoon, Fu Shi reminded her that it was time to get the marriage certificate. Yun Li came to her senses and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau to make an appointment.
Yunye, their specially hired photographer, waited in the living room with Fu Shi for three hours.
When Yunli came out, Yunye wanted to complain impatiently, but he paused when he saw her.
She was wearing a simple white dress and her curly hair was pinned back with a white hairpin, looking gentle and peaceful.
Seeing her brother's gloomy face, she looked at him and asked, "Do you have any objection?"
Yunye was silent for a while: "No."
Her eyes met Fu Shize's and her expression softened instantly.
Rain was hitting the window. Yunli went back to her room and got a black long-handled umbrella, which was totally out of place with her style at the moment.
Yunye saw it, frowned and asked, "Why are you using such a rough umbrella?"
“……”
I got this umbrella by accident when I was in the UK.
It was close to Christmas, and she had a bad time. She didn't do well in several exams because of language problems. She caught a bad cold right after cutting her hand. She couldn't attend the alumni gathering, and her chat with fans ended hastily because she was not in good condition.
The whole city was filled with the Christmas atmosphere. She buried her face in her scarf, feeling the bone-chilling cold of winter in her feeling of being out of place.
The rest of the lab had already gone home early to celebrate Christmas.
That day she left the laboratory alone and passed by a retro red bookstore on her way back to her apartment.
Yunli usually doesn't stop at shops along the way.
When she saw the collection of Christmas animals posted on the door that day, she remembered the Christmas she went to the zoo with Fu Shizhe. Her nose felt sore and she walked in slowly.
If they hadn't broken up, it would have been exactly one year anniversary.
The layout of the bookstore was different from the usual ones, with several long rows of neatly arranged bookshelves. Yunli flipped through the books, but she was not good at English and had little interest in flipping through them.
The bell at the entrance of the bookstore rang, and a tall, thin man came in. He was wearing a black windbreaker, a large hat, and his head lowered.
The man walked straight to Yunli's bookshelf, and Yunli could only see the other person's pale wrist between the bookshelves.
She suddenly remembered the sickly pale skin under his hat on the night when Nan Wu and Fu Shizhe first met.
She stayed in there for more than an hour and caught a glimpse of the black corner of the clothes several times. The other party kept a certain distance from her, but never left.
I absentmindedly flipped through the books one by one. I didn't know how much time had passed. When I reached the door, it started to rain heavily.
She waited for a long time, but the rain showed no sign of stopping.
Alone in that city, she couldn't find anyone to send her an umbrella, and there were no other shops near the bookstore.
Yunli had a sad face and stared blankly at the rain outside the door. She happened to see a man's figure on the glass door covered with Christmas stickers.
From beginning to end, the man wore a loose hat and kept his head down, but he gave her a familiar feeling.
Yunli changed her mind and felt that her idea was ridiculous. In a foreign country, an unknown bookstore, whether it was a coincidence or deliberate, she felt it was a fantasy.
Just because I have missed him for too long, every time I see someone I feel like he is him.
Perhaps to dispel this idea, Yunli hesitated for a long time, turned his head and asked him in English: "Hello, do we know each other?"
Before she turned her head completely, she saw the man in the glass door moving forward and approaching her suddenly. Yunli was so scared that her whole body tensed up. She was about to scream, but the man just bumped into her with his arm and stuffed the long-handled black umbrella into her arms.
The wind chimes at the door rang softly, and she was stunned. The man walked very quickly and his figure quickly disappeared in the rain curtain.
She stared at the long-handled umbrella in her hand for a long time, then smiled again, taking it as the kindness of a stranger.
On that rainy and damp day, her nose was blocked and she felt cold all over because of the dampness, but she also felt a rare warmth.
Yunli came back to his senses and answered casually: "A stranger gave it to me when I felt life was very difficult."
"Take this umbrella with you on my good days. I hope that person can be as happy as I am..." Yun Li thought of the lonely back of the man when he left. She happened to meet Fu Shi Ze's gaze. She curved her eyebrows and said, "I hope that he can be loved by another person for his whole life, just like me."
Noticing that Fu Shize was stunned for a moment, Yun Li remembered Yun Ye's complaints just now and said awkwardly, "Is the black umbrella not good? How about I change it?"
Fu Shi came back to his senses and said softly, "Just take this one." He took the umbrella and said vaguely, "What if it comes true?"
Just after going out, Yunli hid under the umbrella, very close to him. Before her memory drifted far away, in the lounge, the man curled up on the sofa opened his eyes and looked at her.
Yunli pinched his inner elbow: "I have a long-handled umbrella now."
Fu Shize: “?”
He reacted and pulled her closer.
The rain curtain blocked other people's view, but Yunli was still embarrassed to have intimate behavior in public. She tried to push him away with both hands, but he held her still.
Fu Shi chuckled twice and said hoarsely, "You're still not strong enough."
Yunye packed all his stuff, squeezed into the back seat of the car with a camera hanging around his neck, and carefully wiped off the water on the camera.
In the short time from the door to the car, Fu Shize's suit was half soaked. Yun Ye said speechlessly: "Sister, can't you choose a better day, at least don't let it rain."
Yunli looked at Fu Shize and smiled: "Raining can also be a good day."
The windshield wipers pushed the water away from his eyes, and he saw the world go from chaos to clarity. Yunli's smile was reflected on the glass, and he slowly started the car, curling his lips.
From now on, his rainy days can become sunny days because of her.
……
Yunli and Fu Shi finally chose a ready-made new house and it was already September when they moved in.
While unpacking at the new home, Fu Shi noticed that Yun Li had put the drone in a separate box, so he picked it up and took a look.
Fu Shi wiped the dust off her cheek with his fingertips and asked her, "Didn't you give it to your brother?"
Yunli also reached out and touched the place he had touched, and said naturally: "Oh... isn't that Brother Jiang Yuan's? I got it back for you."
"Did you repair it?"
“……”
Yun Li didn't know how he figured it out. Logically, she just patched up a small broken corner. She hesitated and said, "Yun Ye said there was a bump on it. I was afraid you'd be angry, so..."
Fu Shi smiled and said, "We crashed into it during our test flight."
“……”
Yunli looked embarrassed. It was a pity that she was so nervous at that time and used many tools to fix the appearance of the drone without any flaws. But a few seconds later, she said to herself as a matter of course: "Now that we have obtained the license, it is only natural for me to give you something."
Fu Shi put the drone back on the table and saw Yun Li bending down to take things out of his box. She had a slender waist, so he leaned over and hugged her from behind.
"Lili." He said softly, "All the broken corners have been repaired by you."
Yunli understood what he meant and placed her hand on the back of his hand: "From now on, your world will be complete."
When placing electronic products on the bookshelf, Yunli took out Fu Shizhe's VR glasses, which he must have put aside for some time.
For the VR game competition that Yunli participated in with Fu Zhengchu, he developed a very simple game.
The game allows players to build their own scenes and characters, and set the character's tone through imported audio.
With the background of the competition, Yunli obtained a lot of resources and successfully launched the game. As the only judge who nominated them, Xu Qingsong won the first prize for them.
She named the game "IT'SBEENLONGTIME\\Long time no see".
Yunli gave this game as a birthday gift to Fu Shizhe.
Yun Li had not paid attention to it since she gave it to Fu Shi Ze. When she was writing her master's thesis, she often saw Fu Shi Ze playing this game. She naturally thought that Fu Shi Ze would build a world for Jiang Yuan in it and let Jiang Yuan live in another way.
Fu Shi raised his head from the pile of boxes and asked, "Want to play?"
She hasn't played in a long time.
After a day of packing, Yunli was exhausted. Now that she had a chance to relax, she was in high spirits and asked Fu Shize to put on the VR glasses for her.
He stood behind her, put the VR glasses on her and adjusted the size.
Yunli instantly entered another world.
Fu Shize's voice came from my ear: "Can you see clearly?"
Yunli: “Yeah.”
Fu Shizhe: “No games.”
There are only two small games on the desktop besides "IT'SBEENLONGTIME".
Fu Shizhe: "You can play the game you made."
Yunli hesitated for a while: "No, I don't want to watch it."
Fu Shi didn't insist: "Okay, if you want to see it, just watch it yourself."
Yunli clicked on the other two and played with them for a while, but he was a little absent-minded.
Hearing the sound of washing coming from the kitchen, she swallowed and secretly opened the book "IT'S BEENLONGTIME".
The original intention of designing this game was to hope that Fu Shi Ze could make up for his past regrets in another way through virtual reality.
When the game is opened, there is only one perspective to choose from.
After clicking to enter, there was darkness in front of my eyes for a few seconds, followed by the feeling of opening my eyes drowsily. The first scene that caught my eye was the extremely blue sky and the sound of slight wind around me.
Yunli was squatting on the ground. He looked down and saw the ugly, stupid robot on the red runway and the remote control in his hand.
Her gaze shifted to the side, and a pair of white sneakers appeared in her field of vision.
Yunli vaguely guessed something.
Her heart beat faster and faster. Looking up, she saw a sixteen-year-old boy in the light and shadow. His hair fluttered in the wind. He wore a loose team uniform and the moon-shaped badge on his chest shone brightly.
She always wanted to fill his regret, but she didn't know that the red runway she missed was Fu Shizhe's biggest regret.
The boy squatted beside her, tapped the robot with his finger, raised his eyes, and looked at her quietly.
Yunli's eyes turned red unconsciously. She pinched the VR glasses and pulled them up, returning to the real world.
It's their home.
She turned around and saw Fu Shi standing in the light and shadow. He seemed to hear the sound of the wind on the red runway and looked up at her.
