The girl's thoughts became a secret that could not be told.
But because I have confirmed what I am thinking, I can no longer pretend that nothing happened.
Yin Yunyi began to try to control his reaction in front of Yunye.
When handing out homework, the teacher passed by Yunye's seat. The boy was halfway through his homework and lay down on the table to take a nap, with a pen in his right hand hanging on the edge of the table.
Yin Yunyi's school uniform pocket hooked Yunye's pen.
Yunye slowly straightened up because of the noise. He looked at the person in front of him with sleepy eyes, then looked at the pen in his hand and said casually, "You want it." He stuffed the pen into her pocket and said, "Here you go."
"……Thanks."
Yin Yunyi returned to her seat with her homework book in her arms, took out the pen from her pocket and studied it for a while. She made two strokes on the paper, and before she knew it, she had written the sentence.
【I like you.】
【Yunye.】
Coming back to her senses and realizing what she had written, Yin Yunyi hurriedly crossed out the two sentences. When a classmate walked by, she immediately closed the notebook and stuffed it into the drawer.
Xu Yao was in another class. Before school was over, he came to tell her, "Yun Yi, do you know that many people gave Yun Ye love letters? The teacher even called the parents because he was worried that Yun Ye would fall in love too early."
Yin Yunyi suppressed his emotions and asked, "So many people like Yunye?"
"Yes, I wrote a love letter before." Xu Yao said with a smile, "But he ignored it, and I fell in love with another person not long after."
She was doing her homework absentmindedly with her face supported, and accidentally glanced out the window. She saw a tall girl who looked a few years older than them looking around, and her eyes were almost identical to Yunye's.
Could that be Yunye's 'parent'?
Yin Yunyi stood up and walked over to take another look. At the corner of the stairs, she saw the girl talking to Yunye. Yunye was leaning against the old wooden window behind him.
The girl asked him: "Did the guy sitting in front of you write those love letters to you?"
Yunye: “…”
The girl said in a surprised tone: "It's unbelievable that someone would like my brother." She started to laugh: "She's such a pretty girl."
Yunye held it in for a long time and said, "...No."
He couldn't stand it any more: "Yunli, you are so noisy."
"Will your head teacher scold me later?" Yun Li sighed: "Hey, Yun Ye, can you please not cause trouble?"
"At most, he would scold me..." Yunye said impatiently. Seeing Yunli dejected, he struggled for a while and said with a sour face: "Help me deal with the class teacher, and I will treat you to dinner tonight."
Yun Li looked at him suspiciously: "Do you pay or do I pay?"
Yun Ye was exposed by her, his eyes curved, and he said confidently: "You pay."
Yunli: “…”
After the brother and sister finished talking, they walked upstairs. Seeing this, Yin Yunyi stepped back and trotted back to the classroom.
Sitting back in her seat, her heart was pounding, and she felt guilty for eavesdropping on their conversation.
When he started to do his homework, Yin Yunyi suddenly became absent-minded.
The way Yunye and Yunli were getting along just now seemed natural and intimate, just like her and Yin Yucheng.
She was a little envious.
Not long after, Yunye came back to pack his schoolbag. In Yin Yunyi's impression, he should have a sour face or cry after being scolded by the teacher. Yunye looked a little annoyed, and looked at her, then put on his bag and planned to leave.
Yin Yunyi felt that he was a person who did not express his emotions openly.
She pretended to write the questions seriously for a while, not wanting to cause a commotion because of her question. After thinking it over again and again, Yin Yunyi wrote a sentence on the small card and placed it on his desk from front to back without turning around.
[I am often criticized by teachers, so don’t feel sad.]
Finally, a smiley face [:)] is attached.
Yunye glanced at her for a while, then picked up a pen from the table and made two random strokes. When he passed by her, he threw the small card back to her and said in the same tone as usual: "Let's go."
There are only two scribbled symbols——[:)]
Yin Yunyi began to constantly follow Yunye during her high school life. She would secretly watch Yunye when he played, cheering for his scores, and would check his ranking first after the results were released, which made her feel emotional. She would go out at about the same time as Yunye after school every day, and they would "accidentally" meet each other.
These occasional meetings were what the girl dreamed of every day at that time.
During the first year of high school sports meet, all students moved chairs to the playground and there were crowds of people. The sports meet lasted for three days, and later, the classmates played games on their seats.
The loser has to play truth or dare.
Yunye had just finished the relay race and was pulled to a chair when he came back panting. He was wearing a sports vest and his body had not fully grown, so the muscle lines on his arms were not obvious.
Yin Yunyi took a bottle of water from the side and handed it to him.
Yunye took it and said, "Thank you."
When he drank the water, his Adam's apple moved up and down and beads of sweat dripped down his hair. Yin Yunyi watched for a while, and when she noticed his gaze shifting to her, she lowered her head with a pounding heart.
The game goes on.
Yunye had just arrived and lost a few games without knowing why. The questions of truth or dare kept coming back.
"Which girl do you think is the prettiest?"
Yunye didn't want to answer this kind of question, he evaded it by saying, "Everyone has different aesthetic tastes."
"Which girl at the scene best meets your aesthetic standards?"
Yunye raised his eyes and quickly said a name: "Yin Yunyi."
Other boys had answered this question before, but none of them had the same impact as Yunye's answer. Even though she hadn't exercised, she felt a light sweat on her body.
"Do you think Yin Yunyi looks better with her hair tied up or down?"
Yunye uttered an "ah", leaned back in his chair and rocked back and forth, smiling brightly: "I've never seen her with her hair down." The others were unyielding, and after a moment, he casually replied: "Let her wear it down."
The girl next to her teased her: "Yun Yi, you are blushing!"
Yin Yunyi was nervous inside, but on the surface she looked at Yunye calmly: "It's a bit sunny." She made an excuse: "I'm going to the grocery store."
In front of the grocery store, Yin Yunyi breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he had not been exposed.
She wanted to buy an ice cream cone, but the shop only accepted cash or online payment. Yin Yunyi only had money in her campus card, so she gave up the idea.
There was a school sports meet award announcement board next to her. She stopped and searched for Yunye's name for a while.
Yunye's voice suddenly sounded beside him: "Did you see my name?"
Yin Yunyi had clearly seen it, but instinctively denied it: "I didn't see it... where is it?"
"Here." The young man walked forward and pointed directly at his name. Yin Yunyi looked at his face, paused for a few seconds, and then looked at the two words "Yun Ye" on the bulletin board in a daze.
"I bought too much. Here you go." Yunye handed her the cone. Yin Yunyi didn't react and took it. Yunye took a bite of the popsicle, held the stick with his hand, and waved at her: "Let's go home."
“…”
Yin Yunyi's gaze followed the boy's back, and then shifted to the sakura flavored ice cream cone in his hand.
She couldn't understand how there could be such a good-looking person in this world.
However, due to the strict family education since childhood, Yin Yunyi buried this love deep in his heart.
Yin Yunyi thought, maybe just like Xu Yao, this kind of liking was just a momentary ignorance.
It will disappear soon.
A few days later, Yin Yunyi's family told her that Yin Yucheng's job was in Xifu City and she had to transfer to another school.
Upon hearing the news, Yin Yunyi immediately thought of the young man who had made her fall in love for the first time.
Unable to control her emotions, she burst into tears upon hearing the news.
Usually Yin Yunyi's mood is gentle and stable. Yin Yucheng didn't know what happened for a moment and hurried to comfort her.
She paused for a while, then sobbed and said, "The schools over there are not as good as here. I want to get into a good university."
Yin Yucheng laughed out loud: "Our Yiyi's high school entrance exam results are so good, brother has already helped you get into the best high school in Nanwu."
“I can’t get used to the food there.”
"My parents will also go with you. Let them cook Xifu dishes for you."
“I haven’t finished my training class yet.”
"Brother will transfer you to a training class in Nanwu."
Yin Yunyi is still trying: "My friends are all here."
Yin Yucheng comforted her: "Brother knows that you can't bear to leave your friends here, but we Yiyi will have new friends in the new school."
“But…but…”
Yin Yunyi's voice choked.
In all these years, she has only met one young man like Yunye.
She kept wiping her tears. Her parents and brother were both going to leave Xifu City, and she would not stubbornly stop them just because of her vague love for them.
But she was very sad.
She would never see Yunye again.
Yin Yunyi told Xu Yao that she was going to transfer to another school. The news spread quickly, and classmates who had been with her for more than a year came to say goodbye to her, and many of them gave her farewell gifts.
But there is no Yunye.
For the girl, her budding feelings have not yet been told to the other party, so she plans to keep them secret forever.
On the day of leaving school, Yin Yucheng went to the school to pick her up out of consideration for her feelings. Yin Yunyi walked silently on the road, and when she approached the court, she heard footsteps and the sound of a basketball hitting the ground.
Yin Yunyi caught a glimpse of the familiar figure and stopped.
Yin Yucheng asked her: "What's wrong?"
She shook her head, lowered her head and continued walking forward.
"Yin Yunyi——"
In the distance, she heard Yunye's voice, echoing in the empty playground.
Yin Yunyi immediately turned around. Yunye was at the edge of the basketball court, very far away from her. She couldn't see his expression clearly, but she was sure that he was looking at her.
After a few seconds, the tall and thin figure waved at her.
She whispered, "Let's go."
The soft hair flutters in the wind.
This was the first time she let her hair down at school. Maybe it was just a joke from the other party because of their youth and ignorance, but she took it seriously.
She wanted Yunye to see it.
…
At Nanwu Middle School, Yin Yunyi sat in a single row of seats by the window. She had no deskmate, and only the Nanwu sunshine was with her.
She would occasionally stare out the window in a daze, recalling the time when she glanced out the window when she was in junior high school and could see Yunye dribbling the ball on the basketball court downstairs.
She didn't have a cell phone, and her family strictly limited her time online. During the few minutes of online time on weekends, she opened her email and saw Yunye's original penguin avatar, but didn't know what message to send.
She slowly adapted to the new school and her life remained unchanged.
Until I received a postcard from Xifu Experimental Middle School.
Yin Yunyi could tell at a glance that it was Yunye's handwriting. The postcard did not contain any information related to him. It only told her: [The class made a birthday present for you and asked Yunye's sister to bring it to Nanwu City. Happy birthday, Yin Yunyi.]
When Yin Yunyi took the gift from Yunli, she saw the neat words "To Yin Yunyi" on the box. She recognized it as Yunye's handwriting at a glance.
Her heart was pounding and she glanced at Yin Yucheng.
After returning home, Yin Yunyi took the box back to his room and opened it carefully.
The transparent spherical glass contains translucent white and light pink cherry blossoms.
She noticed the twinkling stars on the petals, turned off the lights, and saw white fluorescent pink. The everlasting flower was glowing faintly on the desk.
Yin Yunyi looked at the gift and thought of the young man far away.
Maybe she was lucky, at least the person she loved was responsible for preparing these things for her.
At first, Yin Yunyi thought it was just a coincidence, until she discovered that every frequent postcard was in Yunye's handwriting.
Yin Yucheng discovered it earlier. Seeing that Yin Yunyi had not told him the truth, he asked her while holding the pile of postcards, "Did your former class have someone who wrote letters?"
Yin Yunyi also smiled gently like him, but did not answer.
Yin Yucheng was much more perceptive than she had imagined and sat next to her.
The pen moved steadily on the exercise book. He looked at Yin Yunyi's calm expression and asked casually, "Does this little boy like you?"
The pencil lead broke at once.
Yin Yunyi pressed his pencil with a calm expression and said, "What?"
"It should be Yunye." Yin Yucheng continued to test, and the hand on the exercise book froze. Yin Yunyi lowered his head resignedly: "Brother, don't tell mom and dad."
"But this is not good." Yin Yucheng said a little more seriously: "We should take other people's love seriously. If we don't like the other person, we should reject him clearly, otherwise it will affect him."
Yin Yunyi remained silent for a while before saying obediently, "I understand."
"Then use the computer more this weekend and talk it out with him." Yin Yucheng didn't dwell on the matter anymore. He sorted out the postcards for her and put them on the bookshelf.
"Yeah." Yin Yunyi said obediently and lowered his head to do his homework.
On weekends, Yin Yucheng extended her Internet time to half an hour. When shutting down the computer, Yin Yunyi forgot to confirm twice, and the computer was in standby mode.
Yin Yucheng placed the fruit plate on her desk and asked gently, "Have you finished talking to him?"
Yin Yunyi: “Yeah.”
"Is the little boy sad?" Yin Yucheng was bored and sat in her room. Seeing that she didn't reply, he asked again after a while, "How did he react?"
“…”
Yin Yunyi was working on the college entrance examination workbook that he had seen many times. She raised her head and glanced at her door: "Brother, I don't have time now."
After being kicked out of the room by his sister, Yin Yucheng returned to the study room with nothing to do. Seeing that the host computer was not turned off, he turned on the screen and saw Yin Yunyi's account was still logged in on the computer.
Worried that her wording was inappropriate, Yin Yucheng opened her chat window and took a look. It was a conversation from the afternoon.
yyy: [Yun Ye]
yy：【？】
Yunye replied immediately, and Yin Yunyi thought for a long time before sending the next sentence.
yyy: [What are you doing? ]
yy: [Write 53. What about you? ]
yyy: [I am also writing Wu San, which one are you writing and where is it? ]
yy: [The Chinese language book, classical Chinese test point 4. ]
yyy: [Oh, then I’ll write it too. ]
Half an hour later.
yy: [Bye.]
Just looking at the nicknames Yin Yucheng, it is almost impossible to tell which one is which. One used the original male penguin avatar, and the other, equally naive, used the original female penguin avatar.
Yin Yucheng was speechless, but he immediately realized that the two people were in love with each other.
He turned off the computer and did not mention the matter to Yin Yunyi.
This was the first time Yin Yunyi lied to his family.
She didn't know that she could lie so calmly.
Yin Yunyi couldn't explain the specific reason why he did this.
Thinking back to the scenes he saw when he entered the classroom in the past few years, Yunye was lazily lying on the table, with one hand stretched out in front of the table, pressing the ballpoint pen repeatedly out of boredom.
I remember him playing so hard on the basketball court, supporting himself with his knees and breathing slightly after making a shot, and occasionally looking up as if he saw her in the crowd.
Thinking back to the five years when the two of them were familiar yet strange, they would play around with each other like peers, yet also maintain a basic distance between men and women.
Yunye and she had never been close. The closest moment they were to each other was when they gently brushed each other's fingers when he took the eraser.
At that time, Yin Yunyi thought that he was the only one who felt heartbeat.
Received these postcards from the teenagers.
Every word I say tries to hide my feelings, but every word I say cannot hide my feelings.
It turns out that her crush was not one-sided.
So, she, who had always been well-behaved and honest, chose to lie to her family about this matter.
Use your own way to carefully maintain this budding relationship.
Both of them were facing the college entrance examination, and Yin Yunyi did not rashly reveal his feelings.
But she also had no intention of allowing the other party to overdraw in one direction.
She found an excuse to borrow ten dollars from Yin Yucheng. He saw through her mistake but gave her the money anyway.
Yin Yunyi picked out a set of beautiful postcards at the education supermarket of Nanwu Middle School.
After hesitating for a long time, she finally wrote at the beginning - [Students from Class 15, Grade 2].
It was not until Yunye ran to Nanwu during the winter vacation that Yin Yunyi told the boy his feelings in the most obscure but most sincere way when he saw him.
She gave Yunye a gift and marked it with the name in exactly the same way - [To Yunye].
In the following time, in order to avoid her parents' discovery, Yin Yunyi sent postcards to "Class 15, Grade 2" and "Class 15, Grade 3" for a year and a half, and borrowed ten yuan from her brother countless times. She could sign her own name, while Yunye had to use the class as a pseudonym.
Yin Yunyi's grades were slightly worse than Yunye's, and she agreed with him to take the entrance exam to Northwest University of Science and Technology together. She no longer traveled with Yin Yucheng on holidays, and focused all her energy on preparing for the exam.
Fortunately.
She got admitted to the best university as she wished.
I also got my wish and went to the same university as Yunye.
After the college entrance examination, Yin Yunyi told Yin Yucheng truthfully that she and Yunye planned to study the same major in the same school.
Ben was worried that Yin Yucheng would say that she was in love, but he just looked at his sister meaningfully, took a sip of the refreshing soda, and said with a little sadness: "I also want a campus romance."
Yin Yunyi: "...Brother, you are already 28 years old."
"A 28-year-old man is not worthy of having a campus romance?" Yin Yucheng asked faintly, "Can you let your young boyfriend guide your brother?"
"We haven't talked about it yet." Yin Yunyi immediately retorted.
"At that time, our Yiyi slept on an iron bench in the hospital for her boyfriend." Yin Yucheng teased her. Yin Yunyi blushed and was not afraid to admit: "I was willing."
She was willing to do a lot of things for Yunye, and she knew very well that Yunye would do the same.
After the admission letter from West China University of Technology arrived, Yin Yunyi's family bought him a mobile phone as a gift.
Every day Yin Yunyi uses this phone to send messages to Yunye.
The summer vacation after the college entrance examination was extremely long. Yin Yunyi prepared for college courses in her room every day. She could not find a reason to ask her parents to go to Xifu.
She found that the two words she wrote most on paper were -
【Yunye】
【I am bored】
She read these two words together for some reason, and it seemed that the people far away also came alive. She looked at the words she wrote absentmindedly and laughed to herself.
Maybe he was just bored at home, and maybe he was thinking about her and wanted to meet her.
That day she received a call from Yunye——
"I'm here in Nanwu."
