Chapter 127
Shen Yizhi's usual painting style is mostly architecture and landscape.
This time, she added characters based on the scenery.
Interspersed among the colorful sea of flowers are various busy little people. The picture is harmonious and peaceful, which makes people unconsciously yearn for it.
If you look closely, you can see that the one who is watering the plants gracefully is Ms. Tan Huiya, the one who is grabbing the trimmer from someone else is Shen Dongliang, and the one who is being snatched away is Pei Qingnian, the ones who are enjoying drinking tea and appreciating flowers are Old Man Pei and Grandpa Shen, the one who is hiding in the corner and being lazy is Chen Jinyang, the ones who are walking side by side are Shang Kuoheng and Shu Xinyu, and the one who is diligently transporting the potted plants is Cheng Zhuhan.
The ones who were seen fighting and bickering were Shen Yizhi and Pei Yanhe.
Silently, purple star-colored butterflies landed on everyone's shoulders and on every flower's branches.
"Take a closer look. Is there anything else besides people?" Shen Yizhi raised his head slightly and nodded, looking at him.
Because of the brim of his hat, the only thing that could be seen clearly was his taut jaw.
Pei Yanhe seemed to sense something, turned his head, bent down a little, and suddenly appeared in her limited vision.
He stared into her eyes and said calmly, "Butterfly, is that her?"
He did not specify this "she".
She didn't ask any further questions.
Shen Yizhi understood, with a gentle light flashing in his eyes, “Yeah.”
“I heard that everyone who passes away will turn into a butterfly or a star in the sky. When you look up, she will be there quietly waiting for you. When you miss her, she will turn into a butterfly to comfort you.
She has always been there, never left, and her love for you has never faded.
Pei Shanshan, she has never been missing in every stage of your life."
Perhaps Pei Yanhe had heard this rumor.
But Shen Yizhi still told him.
Just like the observatory in the attic of Mingjing Bay, was it intentional or unintentional?
Only Pei Yanhe and the stars in the sky know about this.
After listening to her words, Pei Yanhe said nothing, his eyes were fixed on her, and he seemed a little absent-minded.
The sound of footsteps of people passing by my ears quieted down.
The world seemed to be muted. There was no sound, no wind, no rain. Only the two of them were staring into each other's eyes.
Suddenly, a piece of letter was stuffed into his hand. Pei Yanhe came back to his senses and looked down.
Shen Yizhi grabbed his hand and asked him to hold the letter tightly.
"Is it for me?" Pei Yanhe picked it up and was about to open it.
Shen Yizhi stopped his action, a trace of embarrassment inexplicably appeared on his face, and he said sternly: “Go back and open it!”
Pei Yanhe paused for a moment, then finally stuffed the letter back in. "Okay."
"This painting also has a name." Shen Yizhi didn't want to talk about the contents of the letter in detail and changed the subject without leaving a trace.
“It’s called ‘Endless Reverie’.”
Pei Yanhe: "Is there another meaning?"
Shen Yizhi shook his head, "Not really."
I just feel that everyone’s life and story have infinite possibilities; so there will always be endless imagination in places where there is nothing to say or describe.
Pei Yanhe understood just a few words.
"Do you want me to take you around the exhibition hall again?" Shen Yizhi tilted his head, feeling that it was a bit boring to just stand here, so he asked him.
She didn't know that Pei Yanhe had visited this exhibition hall no less than five times.
He could tell without hesitation the specific location of each painting.
Pei Yanhe still responded calmly, "Okay."
Because when he is with her, he will never feel bored no matter what he does.
-
At night, Mingjing Bay.
"Do you need help falling asleep these past couple of days?" Doctor Wu has already started preparing a special calming incense.
He usually couldn't sleep for two days after a relapse.
Doctor Wu knows his condition and will arrange some auxiliary treatment for him.
Pei Yanhe leaned back on the sofa, pinching the corner of the envelope with his fingertips. The originally smooth envelope had become a little wrinkled by his pinching.
His thin lips didn't curl at all, and he said slowly, "No, I can fall asleep now."
Doctor Wu paused and asked in surprise, "Are you...okay?"
After thinking about it, Pei Yanhe shook his head, "Probably not."
Whenever he saw the rain, the scene of that night would still come to his mind, and his body would tremble uncontrollably.
“Then…” Doctor Wu guessed: “Is it because of Miss Shen?”
Pei Yanhe said "hmm" without hesitation.
Doctor Wu: "It seems that Miss Shen is indeed the key person to cure your illness."
There was a moment of silence in the air.
After a while, Pei Yanhe finally spoke: "Will I forget it completely after I'm cured?"
His eyelashes trembled, and his voice was slightly bitter: "Would she want me to forget?"
Dr. Wu did not answer, nor did he need to answer.
He knew that Pei Yanhe was not asking him, but asking himself.
Not long after, Dr. Wu stood up and prepared to leave. Before leaving, he stopped again and said, "You haven't come for treatment for a long time. If you have time, bring Miss Shen with you."
At first, Pei Yanhe treated the patient very diligently, but later, perhaps because there was no effect, he was called less frequently.
Only when the disease relapses will he briefly return to his role as a private doctor.
After Dr. Wu left, Pei Yanhe was the only one left in the huge villa.
He looked up and stared at the dazzling chandelier on the ceiling, without missing a beat, until balls of light began to appear before his eyes.
Then he came to his senses and looked away.
Look at the letter in your hand.
open.
It was a densely written handwritten letter.
Pei Yanhe was still a little dizzy and stared at the blurry words for a while.
Finally I could see the content clearly.
[Pei Shanshan, I know you are already an adult who can stand on your own.
But when it comes to rainy days, you are always used to avoiding them, blaming yourself, and feeling regretful; I think that the long and wet rain may be Aunt Wen crying and feeling distressed on the other side.
It seems to be raining again in Kyoto.
I am willing to accompany you through countless rainy seasons.
So, are you willing to come out and take a look? 】
-
Standing on the asphalt road between the two houses.
Shen Yizhi looked up at the sky. In fact, it was not raining tonight. The moon was dim and the stars were sparse, like thick ink rolling.
Fortunately it didn't rain.
Otherwise, she would be soaked before Pei Yanhe came out.
The wind of the approaching winter is chilling to the bone.
Shen Yizhi was only wearing a thin sweater. Looking at the lighted window of Pei Yanhe's house, she couldn't help rubbing her arms.
I don’t know whether he saw it or not.
I wrote this on the spur of the moment, and I'm a little nervous.
Waited for a while.
A homeowner in the community walked past her with his dog, a ferocious-looking, bully dog.
The bully dog stopped at her feet and seemed to be sniffing her.
Shen Yizhi couldn't help but step back.
This dog looks really scary.
She gently reminded her owner: "Excuse me, I'm afraid of dogs. Can you move away a little?"
The owner did nothing, instead saying, "It just looks scary, it doesn't bite."
Its big mouth almost stretched to the back of its head, and its canine teeth were as sharp as needles.
Shen Yizhi couldn't believe his words and subconsciously kept backing away from the bully dog that was circling around her feet.
Until my back suddenly hit the wall.
She had nowhere to retreat.
At the same time, a familiar low voice sounded above his head.
"If you can't manage the dog well, I don't mind finding someone to teach you a lesson."
The dog owner realized that the man was a tough guy, so he only dared to mutter a few words under his breath before pulling the dog away embarrassedly.
Shen Yizhi finally relaxed completely, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at him.
Pei Yanhe lowered his eyes.
"Are you hurt?"
"Have you finished reading the letter?"
The two spoke almost at the same time.
