Chapter 99: Ambiguous Period
Two people were standing under a huge ginkgo tree. The leaves were gradually turning yellow due to the season and were scattered and flying in the wind.
Jin Siyang took her hand, leaned down and looked her in the eye, patiently waiting for her Cen Nian's answer.
Cen Nian felt a little shy, especially under his burning gaze and the advance hug. She wanted to hide, but she realized Jin Siyang didn't give her the chance.
A leaf fell quietly, landed on her head, and then floated lightly to the ground.
"Oh, either is fine." Cen Nian seized this opportunity and answered in a mumbled voice. She spoke quickly and in a light tone.
Jin Siyang saw the shape of her mouth and guessed most of what she said, but when he heard her speed up due to shyness, the teasing in his heart came back: "What? I didn't hear clearly."
Seeing his sincere inquiry, Cen Nian began to wonder if she was speaking too fast.
I just agreed, isn’t it too proactive to ask it again?
But Jin Siyang looked so serious that it seemed as if he really hadn't heard it. After struggling for a while, Cen Nian muttered again, "Oh, if you can't hear clearly anymore, I won't advance you."
"Yeah, I heard it." Jin Siyang said with a smile. He took a step forward, put his arm around Cen Nian's waist, and gently brought her into his arms. He covered Cen Nian's head with his other hand. This posture just brought her completely into his arms.
Cen Nian buried his chin and nose in Jin Siyang's shoulder, smelling the pleasant scent on his clothes, and secretly raised the corners of his lips, like a child stealing candy.
Jin Siyang's hands gradually tightened, as if he had regained what he had lost. He buried his head in Cen Nian's neck, and his warm breath slowly came to her. Cen Nian felt a little itchy, and the sides of her neck and ears turned red.
Cen Nian vaguely recalled that although they did not fulfill their promise to come to Peking University together, this was the first time they hugged each other in Beijing.
They were walking on the street next to the road. Vehicles were moving in the opposite direction of their progress. There were few people on the street, and occasionally three or two people riding bicycles or walking passed by them.
The ginkgo trees were waving freely in the air. Cen Nian had just picked up a very beautiful fallen leaf, which aroused her interest. She trotted ahead, trying to find more beautiful fallen leaves.
Jin Siyang followed behind her with a smile in his eyes. He watched her jogging and occasionally squatting down to pick up fallen leaves, but she was never satisfied and had to look for other ones. After finally finding a better one, she showed joy on her face.
After all these years, she is still that easily satisfied fool.
Cen Nian returned to the dormitory, and An Xin leaned forward. She narrowed her eyes and looked around: "Tsk tsk, your face is so red, where have you been? Tell the truth!"
When Wen Yi heard this, she also moved closer curiously: "Based on my years of experience, this situation is most likely a relationship."
Cen Nian was shocked: "No!"
The two of them clearly didn't believe it: "Niannian, do you think we are fools?"
Cen Nian was embarrassed and had to confess the truth: "We haven't... talked about it yet."
"Oh~" An Xin smiled and said, "Then I get it. Are we still in the ambiguous stage?"
Wen Yi couldn't help but gossip: "Who is it? Who is it? Is it from our school?"
Cen Nian shook his head.
"Hua University?"
"No, he doesn't go to school in Jing City."
An Xin suddenly shouted, "What! It's neither Hua University nor Jing University. Nian Nian, I don't agree with your marriage!"
Wen Yi nodded and said, "I don't agree either!!! Nian Nian, you are so kind, don't be stupid!"
"Who is he, how old is he, where does he go to school, is he handsome?"
Under intense questioning, Cen Nian stammered, "He was my high school classmate, several months older than me. He went to Stanford. He was pretty good-looking, wasn't he?"
An Xin changed her tone: "Stanford, then I agree!"
Cen Nian: ...are you changing your tune so quickly?
Wen Yi was still skeptical: "He looks like a top student, but what do you mean by "not bad looking"? There's a saying in Nian Nian that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Generally speaking, people will just call a very handsome man handsome, and say "not bad" is just average."
Cen Nian didn't understand and just exclaimed, "Is that so?" But when asked to directly say that Jin Siyang was very handsome, she seemed a little embarrassed to say it out loud.
An Xin and Wen Yi looked at Cen Nian's silly look and felt quite worried, so they pulled her aside and told her all the things to pay attention to during the ambiguous period.
"Pull. You need to pull, you know?"
"That's right, he can't stop!"
"Also, one thing you need to be careful about when it comes to international relationships is that the man might have a partner over there."
"You have to keep an eye on his movements, but don't show too much concern."
"By the way, Nian Nian, you should post more on your Moments and manage them. Let him know that your life is wonderful and give him a sense of crisis."
......
An Xin and Wen Yi talked for nearly half an hour. At the end, they both drank half a glass of water and asked, "Did you listen?"
Cen Nian nodded obediently: "I listened."
In this case, of course we can only say that we listened.
Speaking of Moments, she has Jin Siyang's WeChat in her address book, but he hasn't sent any messages in two years, and he hasn't updated his Moments anymore. She doesn't know if he's still using WeChat.
After her senior year of high school, Cen Nian rarely opened this dialog box, and the information records in it were kept intact. Even though she changed to a new phone after going to college, the records were still kept.
Aunt Liu and Uncle Li bought her a new cell phone as an admission gift for getting into Peking University.
She moved all the old records to her new phone.
He opened the dialog box again and looked at the last message Jin Siyang sent him, and Cen Nian's heart still tightened.
She hesitated for a long time and still didn't send a message.
After a few minutes, Cen Nian was playing with his phone out of boredom until a familiar avatar appeared in his Moments column.
She clicked on it uncontrollably, and the circle of friends posted by JSY was prominently displayed at the top.
The time shows one minute ago.
He posted a picture with the autumn scenery of Bunkyo City.
The picture shows the street they just walked on together. He took pictures of the pale yellow ginkgo trees, the fallen leaves on the ground, the traffic on the side of the road, and a running figure on the side of the camera.
It was when she was jogging looking for fallen leaves.
Cen Nian's heart was beating like a drum. Her roommates were doing their own things, making some noises, but Cen Nian sat on the chair and felt that the world had become quiet, with only her heartbeat remaining.
Two minutes later, Jin Siyang's dialog box popped up.
【JSY】: Have you decided what to tell me?
【JSY】：Pictures
The picture shows 'the other party is typing'
Cen Nianye was speechless for several seconds. How could he have discovered this?
[Cen Nian]: I just want to ask if you have arrived at the hotel?
【JSY】：I don’t like staying in hotels when I get home
Cen Nian was speechless again. In her opinion, the young master was not used to staying in a hotel, so he simply bought a house in Beijing.
This is Beijing!
Cen Nian thought about it and searched for an emoticon package.
[Cen Nian]: (Piglet shocked) emoticon
【JSY】：Voice
Cen Nian subconsciously clicked it, and a low voice came from inside: "Are you stupid?"
