"No, we just happened to run into each other."
"What a coincidence! I just arrived and she left... Michael, Michael, you really aren't lonely. People come and go around you, but in the end, there will always be someone to keep you company!"
You didn't see me when I was lonely.
"Is this an indirect admission?"
"I really can't keep up with your leaps of thought! ...I'm leaving."
As I walked towards the parking lot, Yang Sisi followed closely behind me, dragging her suitcase and chattering away... But she didn't seem to realize that I had come all this way just to drop Ye Zhi off, so how could she still have the nerve to throw herself at me?
...
On the drive back to the old town, Yang Sisi kept the car window down the whole time. She seemed to be particularly enjoying the morning in Dali, so she didn't say much and would occasionally close her eyes to savor the moment...
Soon, the car arrived at the section of the airport road that was very close to Erhai Lake.
Yang Sisi leaned against the car window, resting her chin on her hand and looking outside...
Perhaps she was a particularly lovable girl, and even nature seemed to be pleasing her. Before long, the sun rose over the mountains, and Erhai Lake became unbelievably beautiful. There were also colorful insects and butterflies; individually, they were unremarkable, but when they gathered in groups on the flowers, they became a unique embellishment.
The atmosphere was so enchanting that I was almost completely captivated while driving.
Yang Sisi stretched her hand out of the car window and said to me with a smile, "This is my favorite Dali. Even if I don't sleep all night, I feel it's totally worth it!"
I smiled and replied, "Would you like to go down and get closer to your favorite Dali?"
"No, drive faster, let's have breakfast together."
Didn't you eat anything on the plane?
"I'm in a hurry, so I booked another flight back to Shanghai at noon."
I turned to look at her and exclaimed, "Are you crazy? You arrive in the morning and go back at noon... Do you think coming from Shanghai to Dali is just a village visit?"
Yang Sisi frowned and replied, "There's nothing I can do. Have you ever heard the saying, 'The punishment for impulsiveness'?"
"What's the meaning?"
Yang Sisi hesitated for a moment, then suddenly said to me impatiently, "Oh... actually, what I said to you last night was just putting on a brave face... I still have to go abroad with my dad. He can't live without me now, because I'm the one who does all the translation work."
I was a little skeptical, so I questioned, "You're leaving at noon, why are you bringing such a big suitcase?"
"It's full of delicious food, and all of it is your favorite... Oh, and I also bought you a pair of shoes!"
"...I don't even know what to say anymore. Someone like you is really..."
Yang Sisi interrupted me and said softly, "You don't need to say anything. Just remember... there will never be another person in this world who would fly from Shanghai to Dali just to have breakfast with you!"
