Endless Summer Sky
Two years have passed.
The melodious sound of a bell rang out in the distance, rippling the dust in the air and echoing in the gentle sunlight. When Lu Jinfeng was about to wake up, he pulled the person next to him into his arms, habitually lowering his head to bury it in Bai Shunan's shoulder and rubbing it. He tilted his head and put his face against his soft cheek, saying affectionately, "I love you."
Bai Shunan was still sleepy and hummed softly.
Lu Jinfeng didn't hear the response he wanted to hear. He gently squeezed Shun'an's hand and kept muttering, "Shun'an, Shun'an..."
"Okay, okay," Bai Shunan hugged Lu Jinfeng back and said softly, "I love you too."
A happy and complacent smile immediately spread across Lu Jinfeng's face. He leaned against Bai Shunan, ready to lie down for a while. At this time, Mianhua's cries gradually came from far away. Lu Jinfeng closed his eyes and sighed softly. He sat up, bent down and kissed Shunan's face. After tidying up Shunan's quilt, Lu Jinfeng walked over and opened the bedroom door. He hugged Mianhua in his arms, rubbed its fur, and then gently closed the door.
He opened the window, and the sound of the river flowing slowly into his ears became clearer. Bai Shunan came out while Lu Jinfeng was making breakfast. As soon as Bai Shunan came out, Mianhua ran over to rub against him. He picked up Mianhua and stroked her fur while sitting on the sofa. He immediately saw the extra script on the table and asked, "Have you read this script?"
"Not yet. I don't really want to work with that director."
"I see."
"Have you seen it?"
"I took a general look."
"What's that?"
Bai Shunan shook his head and chuckled, "One person fell in love with another person."
"Well, I'm in love with you."
Bai Shunan smiled at Lu Jinfeng, who happened to come over with breakfast. When he saw Bai Shunan looking up at him, Lu Jinfeng leaned over and kissed Bai Shunan. After the kiss, he sat beside Bai Shunan with satisfaction, "Is this your last scene here this afternoon?"
"Um."
"Then I'll wait for you nearby."
"Okay, I'll come find you."
Lu Jinfeng ran to the window and waved to Bai Shunan as he walked down the street, watching him leave his sight. The midday sun was shrouded in endless waves of heat. After several days of scorching heat, Lu Jinfeng no longer felt the comfort of enjoying the sun at the beginning of summer. He looked listlessly at Mian Hua, who was taking a peaceful nap in the shade. He felt a sudden warmth in his heart. Looking at it now, he had long forgotten his initial annoyance and went back to sleep.
After Lu Jinfeng woke up, he went to learn and communicate with his neighbors who had become familiar to him. He spoke the completely unfamiliar local language haltingly at the beginning, but now he can speak it with some comprehension. He listened with great interest to the interesting stories and gossip told by his neighbors in a slow tone. When he heard something particularly interesting, he couldn't help but want to share it with Shunan. Occasionally, he would wait patiently until he met Shunan and then tell him the story with emotion. Lu Jinfeng smiled brightly, as if Shunan's surprised expression had already appeared in front of him.
As the sun was about to set in the afternoon, Lu Jinfeng's day felt like it had just begun. He strolled leisurely along the path, the wind still lingering with the heat, a sign of cooling temperatures. He followed the path he had walked with Shunan, admiring the scenery he hadn't yet tired of, snapping photos of the moments that moved him. Occasionally, when he ran into someone he knew, he'd chat with them for a while before continuing on his way. When Lu Jinfeng needed a break, he'd expertly go to one of his favorite cafes and sit down, where he'd look through his photos.
Lu Jinfeng looked out at the dusk, which was just getting darker, so he went outside and sat on a bench by the street, waiting for Bai Shunan. He stared at the setting sun, observing the changes in the sky, and suddenly wanted to capture the next scene. As he pulled his camera out of his bag, he saw the script tucked away inside. He took it out, flipped a page, read for a moment, then closed it and set it aside. Lu Jinfeng lowered his head and stroked the wrinkles on his clothes, which bore traces of his embrace with Shunan.
The lights in the shops around him were on, the wind was blowing slowly, and the street lights were flickering. Lu Jinfeng was thinking about how Shunan would come to him. He kept walking forward on the street until he came to his side. When he looked at the street lights again, they were already bright and steady. He was worried about and solved many trivial matters. He thought about the invitations from those directors. Being with Bai Shunan again was indeed a deep temptation for him, but he was trapped by other factors, which made him hesitate. Lu Jinfeng thought about it again and again, and decided to let his future self make the decision.
So Lu Jinfeng became more and more greedy for the good time now. He found that Shunan liked to tease him more than he teased Shunan. He always said some touching words in ordinary times. Even if he did some natural things, it would catch him off guard and make his heart moved. Shunan seemed to be keen on seeing him laugh and shy. Thinking of this, Lu Jinfeng lowered his head and smiled again. A bit of sweetness lingered in his heart. He couldn't wait to see Shunan again.
Lu Jinfeng listened to the bell and closed his eyes, imitating what Shunan often did. This was also what worried him the most. It seemed that Shunan could close his eyes and fall asleep anywhere. Memories also came back like a dream under the blessing of the bell. They revisited the old place, kissed on the street corners of a foreign country, waited in the church, and in the empty dance hall after the hustle and bustle of the night, they slowly leaned on each other under a spotlight, as if there were only two of them left in the world. It was more like a relaxing swaying. They walked slowly, turned, and looked at each other silently, with gentle waves in their eyes. Everything swayed gently. They slowly gave their hearts in this time that seemed to have become durable. Everything swayed and indulged in the night.
Lu Jinfeng opened his eyes. The dusk in the distance was captivating. He seemed to foresee that when they were on their way to their new home soon, there would be a sky like this outside the window. Lu Jinfeng took out his camera and captured this ordinary moment that he would not miss. Thinking that Shunan would be by his side at that time, all his emotions suddenly became as subtle as silk threads. His heart was deeply moved by longing, and tears welled up in his eyes. He would be here at that time, waiting. Lu Jinfeng closed his eyes again, thinking and thinking, only Shunan remained in his mind.
The wind blew towards him, and Lu Jinfeng listened to the sound of slow footsteps approaching, with a faint smile on his lips.
He didn't need to open his eyes to know that he was coming. In the dim light, he recognized him and no longer felt disappointed. When the footsteps gradually stopped, he held the hand of the person in front of him. He had touched those hands countless times and felt a chill, which was brought by the ring.
Lu Jinfeng raised the corner of his mouth and smiled gently, and the smile deepened.
He slowly opened his eyes, his eyes gradually brightened, reflecting the spirit of the setting sun, Lu Jinfeng looked at the person who was so close to him.
The person in front of me also had a smile on his face.
