Chapter 71 Okay, Let’s Be Together
Sang Sui was startled and looked up.
He is a tall and thin boy.
He looked about the same age as her, with a thin face and a pair of silver-framed glasses on his high nose. His dark eyes, through the transparent lenses, were filled with gentleness.
Seeing her stunned, he didn't say anything, but took out a pack of handkerchiefs from his trouser pocket and handed it to her.
"Don't cry. It won't look good if you cry too much." He smiled with curved lips, "Wipe it off first."
Sang Sui finally came to his senses, took the tissue and said thank you.
He pursed his lips and said you're welcome.
Then he turned sideways, turned around and walked into the warehouse, looking for something.
This is the restaurant's warehouse, where some dishes, ingredients, or stored red wine are placed.
Sang Sui looked at him and realized that the boy was also wearing the professional attire of this restaurant.
"Are you also a waiter in this restaurant?" she asked.
The boy turned around, saw what she was wearing, and smiled: "It seems you are too."
His eyes fell on the Lafite red wine on the wine cabinet. He reached out to take it out and looked at the year.
It was the bottle he was looking for.
He came over with the red wine and held out his hand to her: "Hello, my name is Cen Yu, I'm Chinese."
Meeting a Chinese person in a foreign country made Sang Sui feel as happy as meeting an old friend.
She reached out her hand and shook his: "Hello, my name is Sang Sui, and I am also Chinese."
"Are you studying abroad here? New here?"
After all, everyone saw what happened in the restaurant just now.
This girl is still unfamiliar with how to solve some emergencies.
Sang Sui was surprised: "Well, you too?"
"Well, which school are you studying abroad in?" As soon as he finished speaking, Cen Yu seemed to notice the vigilance and hesitation in Sang Sui's eyes, "Sorry, I am presumptuous."
Sang Sui didn't say anything, just smiled and said, "It's time to rest, I have to go to work."
"Okay, bye."
-
Since they worked in the same restaurant, Sang Sui would often bump into him.
Later I found out that he was responsible for serving meals in the kitchen.
Perhaps it was because they were both studying in a foreign country, or perhaps it was because of the pack of handkerchiefs he handed her, the relationship between the two gradually became closer.
After they got to know each other, Sang Sui found out that he was also studying at Fairmont Christensen University.
The only difference between him and her is that she is an exchange student, while he is a student whose parents sent him abroad to study.
"What a coincidence! Then you can take care of each other!" Salia said happily in English.
At this point, Salia seemed to have thought of something and glanced around the restaurant: "Sui Sui, I found that the friend who protected you that day hasn't come to see you recently. Is he also studying in France?"
Sang Sui was startled and looked in the direction she was looking.
Ever since he said those words to Sheng Yize that day, he has not appeared again.
Sang Sui also breathed a sigh of relief.
Every time she saw him, she thought of the past.
Even if it was a misunderstanding, so what? The harm he brought to her was hard to erase.
-
After the summer vacation, the new semester began and Sang Sui started a new learning journey.
There is a Chinese Students Association at Fairchild University, and the association holds a social gathering every month.
The purpose is, firstly, to enhance the friendship among everyone in a foreign country, and secondly, if anyone encounters difficulties in study or life, everyone can communicate and help each other.
Of course, they also have WeChat groups privately.
This was Sang Sui’s first time studying abroad and he didn’t understand many things yet.
Whenever she encountered a problem, she would post it in the group and ask everyone like a rookie.
Everyone was also very warm and tolerant to her, always explaining things to her in detail and teaching her how to do things.
Over time, she discovered that a person with the WeChat nickname "With the World" always responded to her questions as soon as possible and patiently helped her solve them.
To express his gratitude, Sang Sui specially added him on WeChat and planned to send him a gift to express his gratitude.
After asking, she was surprised to find that the other party was Cen Yu.
This discovery surprised Sang Sui so much that she generously asked him out for dinner.
It was also during that meal that both of them felt that they were destined to meet each other again and again in this university.
Later, the two became closer.
The two of them were like friends, making plans to go to the cafeteria to eat together after school, to study together in the library, and even to do part-time jobs together.
Also because of Cen Yu, the loneliness and fear she felt being alone in a foreign country gradually disappeared.
It can be said that for Sang Sui, Cen is his dining partner, study partner, and even work partner.
They would hug each other and cry because of the sadness in the movie, hug each other and laugh because the characters in the book have a happy ending, and they would even understand what the other person wants to say because of a single sentence.
Sang Sui really regarded him as her best and most intimate friend, so when Cen Yu confessed to her on Christmas of their junior year, she was completely stunned and even caught off guard.
There was a heavy snowfall on Christmas Eve.
The street lights on the school road are covered with white snow, and the incandescent lights seem chilly in this silver-white world.
The school was decorated with lights everywhere, and the trees were hung with little Santa Clauses. At every intersection there would be someone pretending to be Santa Claus giving out candy and snacks to passing students.
The festive atmosphere was so strong that when Cen Yu called her to come downstairs, she came downstairs wrapped in a thick cotton-padded jacket and stood in front of him. He held a gift box in both hands and handed it to her, and said to her shyly and eagerly - "Sang Sui, I like you, can we be together?" When she turned her eyes and accidentally saw a person standing under a street light not far away.
It’s Sheng Yize.
She thought he would never come to see her again, but unexpectedly he came again.
She didn't know whether she wanted to completely give up the idea of this man coming to find her, or she felt that being with Cen Yu was actually not bad, and it could make her happily forget the past, so when Cen Yu asked her again, she withdrew her gaze and looked at him.
Sang Sui looked at Cen Yu closely, and light fell into her eyes, reflecting a dazzling stream.
She heard her solemn and serious voice fall——
"Okay, let's be together."
