The mountain wind protected the branches and leaves of the trees around the outer wall, making a rustling sound. The window was open, and the natural wind mixed with the slightly cold air in the room, making the skin feel very comfortable.
"You've done a lot of preparation tonight." Of course, Liu Changan noticed all the details in Qin Yanan's room, including the soft sound of the rain, the old women's toys and personal items, and so on.
"Same to you." Qin Yanan expressionlessly expressed her admiration for Liu Changan. After all, his face change was even more magical than the Sichuan opera.
After that, the two of them looked at each other, and Liu Changan laughed.
Qin Yanan turned her head. She was still a little annoyed. He was really an acting genius. He actually pretended to be Ma Weiming. If it weren't for the pig's tail and his eyes revealing the truth, she would have been fooled by him. If she didn't realize, what would he do next? Would he really push her down on the bed?
"I've never been a busybody. You came to plot against me, so I beat you at your own game." Liu Changan picked up a bunch of grapes on the table between the two of them and nibbled on it.
The grapes emitted a light rose fragrance. It looked very delicious. The juice flowed in the mouth, and it was crisp but not sweet enough.
"Then, if I didn't recognize you just now, would you beat me at my own game and forced me to sleep?" Qin Yanan said angrily. She only used some small tricks, but Liu Changan's method was too evil! He was really good at acting as a hooligan just now. That face of his was filled with lust!
"Not interested." Liu Changan shook his head disinterestedly.
"Not interested?"
"Not interested."
Qin Yanan reached out and grabbed. There was actually nothing suitable to be embarrassed in her hands. There was only a fork to eat fruit.
Liu Changan took the fork in his hand.
Qin Yanan glared at Liu Changan. Liu Changan continued to eat the grapes one by one.
If he said that he wasn't that kind of person, that he would know when to stop, that he would rein in at the brink of the precipice, that would be fine … Not interested? Did this mean that as a woman, she was completely unattractive to him? It was like if a woman was facing forced stimulation, and the criminal suddenly stopped. The woman was glad that she was saved, and then the criminal said, "Actually, you're thinking too much. You're so ugly, why would I force you? I was actually helping you!"
How could they not kill such a person?
"Are you trying to test if I'm Ye Chenyu?" Liu Changan put down the grapes. When Qin Yanan began to pant again, he diverted her attention.
Qin Yanan froze for a moment, recovering from her unnecessary anger. She pressed her chest out of habit, only to remember that she was wearing loose pajamas. No matter what, it was impossible for her pajamas to be torn. She couldn't help but glance at Liu Changan's pajamas. They were the same color, white and gray with black stripes. The two of them were sitting in Tiffany's blue-themed living room, chatting face to face. It gave off the feeling of a family living at home, which made her feel a little strange.
As for what he said, Qin Yanan was not very excited. Yes, it was just a test. He didn't directly admit it.
Liu Changan stood up.
Qin Yanan's eyes followed his back.
Liu Changan walked to the window.
"Autumn is coming."
Qin Yanan stood up involuntarily. His voice had changed!
Liu Changan pushed aside a few branches that were peeking out, closed the window, and then slowly turned around and walked into Qin Yanan's bedroom.
Qin Yanan hurriedly followed. Liu Changan had already walked into her bathroom and closed the bathroom door.
Qin Yanan stood outside the door. Ignoring her, she put the dirty clothes basket in the middle of the bathroom, which contained the underwear she had changed out of.
"I told you, some things, people who have experienced it are still alive. It's just a memory, not history."
The changed voice came through the door. It was low, like the whimper of a flute that was tidied up, and the feeling of vicissitudes was read calmly.
"Yes, I still can't understand." Qin Yanan still put her hand on her chest habitually. She was a little nervous.
"For most people, especially young people who have just left school, the first impression of history is a textbook with the word 'history' written on it."
"The word 'history' is very plain, because no matter how magnificent the event is, written in a book and recorded, it's just a piece of text for people to read, feel, and imagine …"
"It's like watching a movie. No matter how brilliant the director and actors are, how empathetic they are, in fact, it's a kind of spectator who has nothing to do with them."
"History needs to be remembered, because it can easily be tampered with, forgotten, and ignored … But memories are different."
Qin Yanan seemed to understand.
"Some people are still alive. Those painful experiences, the era when the mountains and rivers were destroyed, the scenes of people living in poverty, the broken hearts of those babies raised by bayonets, the rivers that turned blood red, the despair of those dying struggles … To them, this is not some trivial history. It's their personal experience and the nightmare that still haunts them. It's an unforgivable hatred, a bloody wound that hasn't healed until now … Do you understand?"
Qin Yanan held the bathroom door handle. She naturally had a lot of feelings in her heart, but he suddenly brought up this topic. Was he telling her that he had experienced this?
"You're probably wondering if I'm saying that I've experienced this?"
"Yes." Qin Yanan felt as if the voice was transmitted to her body. Her fingers trembled, and she let go of the door handle.
"I'm not suddenly feeling emotional, nor am I forcefully changing the topic. It's just that your guess is right. I'm Ye Chenyu, the person who shares memories with Ye Sijin and Qin Peng."
Liu Changan opened the door and walked out with a gentle smile. There was a faint nostalgia in his eyes, but this nostalgia was attached to Qin Yanan like silk. Qin Yanan's eyelashes trembled slightly. She knew that this nostalgia was not because of her.
His appearance had also changed. He was the person that Qin Yanan had seen twice.
Ye Chenyu!
The Ye Chenyu who was not recorded in the history books and only existed in the memories of a few people!
The Ye Chenyu whose appearance was engraved in the photo of her great-grandfather's study!
Qin Yanan looked into his eyes and forgot to stop breathing. Perhaps it was because of her eyes, she felt that the person in front of her was still Liu Changan. It was as if he had just spread the buried memories and dust-covered scenes in front of her, making her feel like time and space were intertwined.
"You really are … really …" Qin Yanan looked at Liu Changan, took a few steps back, and shook her head with her eyes closed.
Qin Yanan opened her eyes again. Her eyes were hazy, and she shook her head gently. There was no change at all. This was different from the sudden meeting in the past. It gave Qin Yanan the feeling that the person in the photo and the memories of the elders had disappeared in time and appeared again.
She did not even suspect that Liu Changan had mastered the ability to change his face and turned into "Ye Chenyu" to fool her.
Because all her original clues had been verified. Some of the information that Liu Changan had intentionally or unintentionally revealed in the past couldn't have been a foreshadowing to fool her today, right?
"Are you really … really immortal? No, immortal? " Qin Yanan squeezed her knuckles hard and stared at his face, his hand, and his heel that was exposed outside the slippers.
"Is there a difference?" Liu Changan asked with slight doubt.
"Of course there is a … a difference?"
"Immortality is a state of keeping young both physically and mentally. This is the real immortality … If you have an immortal appearance but a lethargic mind, it's really boring." Liu Changan smiled and said, "You can still treat me as your cousin. I don't mind."
"I didn't mean that … No … No." Qin Yanan was a little incoherent. "I … I'd better call you granduncle."
"Whatever."
After Liu Changan finished speaking, he sat on the footstool at the end of Qin Yanan's bed.
Qin Yanan lowered her head, and the hair on both sides of her cheeks fell into two crescent moons. Under the cover of her hair, her eyes secretly looked at Liu Changan.
Liu Changan held the little cloth tiger in his hand and looked at it. Qin Yanan couldn't help but blush. It turned out that he had seen her acting. He must have thought it was very funny, right?
"What was your original plan tonight?" Liu Changan looked up and asked.
"I was going to pretend to be a great-grandmother and lure you into revealing it so that I have more conclusive evidence to prove it …" Qin Yanan embarrassedly played with her hair to the back of her head. "I didn't expect you to admit it directly."
"Thank you."
Qin Yanan smiled twice, feeling a little embarrassed. Although she always felt that he was still the Liu Changan she was familiar with, his personality, his state of mind, and his style hadn't changed, she had to clearly realize that she couldn't treat him as a little cousin.
Thinking of this, she was a little disappointed. Who didn't want a younger brother like Liu Changan? Now she could only call him granduncle.
This title seemed to be correct, right? Uncle, granduncle, granduncle.
"So, since it's my turn to tell you …" Liu Changan walked over with the cloth tiger in his hand and put it on the top of Qin Yanan's head. "It's your turn to tell me your unspeakable secrets."
"What unspeakable secrets …" Qin Yanan raised her hand to grab the cloth tiger on top of her head. She didn't know why he put it on top of her head. Feeling silly, she wanted to take it down, but looking at his serious expression, Qin Yanan was a little afraid. "I was going to tell you after you admitted it."
"Say it." Liu Changan nodded. In this case, he would take away the cloth tiger … When Ye Sijin and Qin Peng were naughty or didn't study well, Liu Changan made them stand with something on their heads as punishment.
"I … am very strong."
Liu Changan was stunned for a moment.
"Very, very strong." Qin Yanan was a little embarrassed. In fact, she felt that if a girl was too strong, it would be easy to associate it with the description of being as strong as an ox, as strong as a bear, and as powerful as a mountain. It was not very elegant!
"How strong?"
"When I fought with you just now, I used all my strength."
"Oh, not bad."
Qin Yanan's face flushed red. She wanted to compete with him again, but she decided to forget about it … He had the right to be so nonchalant. She had always thought that she was strong and powerful, but in front of him, all she could do was pound his chest with her tiny fists and whimper.
"What else?"
"Recently, when I cut my hand while cutting vegetables, I found that my finger didn't bleed. I didn't think much at that time, until the second time … I tried it. Even if it was a very sharp knife, it was useless on me. But I didn't use too much force, nor did I use too much force to cut myself."
"Amazing."
Qin Yanan's cheeks puffed up, a little like a pufferfish that had just started to get angry. Sure enough, whether it was Ye Chenyu or Liu Changan, they were the same person and had the same moral conduct.
"That's it?"
Qin Yanan felt like she was being looked down upon. But how could she compete with someone who could live forever?
So, Qin Yanan could only nod.
"Don't you have any special information about that coffin, about your analysis of your own situation, about … about Ye Sijin, some secrets that you haven't told me yet?" Liu Changan guided her patiently, waving the cloth tiger, red string, and handkerchief in front of her.
"There is one, it's about great-grandmother's privacy." It was impossible for Qin Yanan to tell her "cousin", but now that he was her great-grandmother's brother, Qin Yanan felt that it was necessary to tell him, because when faced with a heartless lover who didn't reveal her name or face, it was always the brother who stood up for her. "She had someone she liked, it should be a very close lover, but it wasn't my great-grandfather. She wanted to see him again before she died … That was her obsession, I could feel it."
Qin Yanan looked at Liu Changan and saw that he was silent.
He was silent like an emotionless statue.
No, a statue could express emotions. He was just using all his strength to control his emotions, not wanting to show a trace of it.
His shoulders moved, and he raised his head, still showing a gentle smile.
Qin Yanan felt that there was something struggling in her heart, which made her a little heart-wrenching pain. She felt sour for no reason, and it was difficult for her to breathe.
"In addition to immortality, do you want to know what other abilities I have?" Liu Changan gently stroked Qin Yanan's long hair, and his eyes were soft.
"Yes." Qin Yanan answered truthfully. His eyes made people's hearts palpitate. She knew that his eyes were not for Qin Yanan, but for Ye Sijin.
"Go and change into a cheongsam."
Liu Changan walked out of the bedroom.
Qin Yanan stood in the bedroom for a while with a complicated expression. She patted her cheeks, and then her body trembled, as if her soul had returned to her body. She panted, went to change into a pair of underwear suitable for the cheongsam, and then put on the cheongsam. She combed her hair into a bun like the one in her great-grandmother's photo, put on a similar makeup, and walked out of the bedroom in high heels.
Qin Yanan was stunned for a moment when she saw him. Then, she revealed that gentle and warm smile again. The man in the living room was as tall as jade. Qin Yanan couldn't help but think that Ye Sijin must have been looked at like a big brother countless times in the past.
"Tonight, you are Ye Sijin."
After Liu Changan finished speaking, he walked out of the room. He didn't change his clothes, and he didn't even wear shoes. He walked barefoot to the viewing platform of Lu Shan.
Qin Yanan followed him with small steps. A cheongsam and high heels were not suitable for running. Qin Yanan came behind him and placed her hands in front of her lower abdomen. She was Ye Sijin tonight. What did this mean?
"Back then, Zhu Juntang asked me how I appeared on the roof of Baolong Center's first building. Later, I told her that I jumped from the second building." Liu Changan didn't lie to Zhu Juntang about this matter.
"So high, so far …" Qin Yanan looked at Liu Changan in disbelief. She didn't know how many times she had stood on the roof of Baolong Center's first building. Of course, she knew that the first building was 452 meters, and the second building was only 315 meters. Not to mention the distance between the two buildings, just based on this height, even Spiderman would have to rely on spider silk to jump up!
"My ability seems to be related to the civilized period, and I can also evolve … At the beginning of the last century, I wasn't as strong as I am now." Liu Changan opened his arms. "Jin 'er, come here."
This form of address … Qin Yanan was a little resistant, but it quickly dissipated.
Qin Yanan walked to Liu Changan's side.
"Ah …"
Qin Yanan raised her hand to cover her mouth and let out a low cry. Her body was stiff because Liu Changan had carried her horizontally.
His arms were strong, and her body that weighed more than 50 kilograms felt as light as a bird in his arms. Qin Yanan's heart was pounding in his arms.
Suddenly, Qin Yanan felt his heart skip a beat.
What was he doing?
He jumped, but why didn't he feel the ground?
Qin Yanan couldn't help but open her eyes. The Milky Way above her head seemed to suddenly be closer, and the trees disappeared from the corner of her eyes.
He rose from the ground!
He jumped into the air, which was a height that humans absolutely couldn't achieve by relying on their own physiological structure.
This was the domain of birds and flying insects.
"You …" Before Qin Yanan could finish her sentence, she only felt his body landing, and she couldn't help but shout in fear. Because she had already clearly seen their height, Lu Shan was dozens of meters below her, and now they were jumping down along the slope of the mountain.
Liu Changan jumped to the engine room at the top of the cable car not far away.
Qin Yanan's heart was beating like a drum. At this time, it was definitely not because of the shyness and nervousness of being carried in his arms, but because of the effect of her pale face.
"Jin 'er, this is a cable car. Isn't it like the pull trailers in some places?"
Did she really think she was Ye Sijin? Qin Yanan was a little dizzy.
Liu Changan jumped again. Qin Yanan didn't have time to care about him thinking she was Ye Sijin. She could only grit her teeth and adapt to this incredible superhuman thing he did.
He jumped down the mountain from the iron tower on the cable car. Qin Yanan's heart followed the height of his jump, jumping and stopping like a high and low parabola.
"Where are you going? When they reached the bottom of the mountain, Qin Yanan's heart trembled. She found that he had no intention of letting her go.
Liu Changan didn't say anything. He took advantage of the fact that there were no cars on the road and ran.
This kind of speed … Fortunately, at four or five o 'clock in the morning, it was the time when there were the least pedestrians and cars on the street.
"We're on the river!"
Qin Yanan was shocked to find that Liu Changan was running on the river with her in his arms!
What kind of speed was this?
Liu Changan ran to the head of Orange Island with Qin Yanan in his arms. At this time, he put down Qin Yanan.
He turned his head to look at the statue of the great man.
"Jin 'er, I remember you told me that when the revolutionary cause is successful, you will come here with us and read the song' Spring in Qin Garden 'loudly!"
Liu Changan looked back at Qin Yanan.
Qin Yanan opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything. She just silently responded to his gaze.
"Alone in the cold autumn, north of the Xiangjiang River, head of Orange Island.
See the mountains red, layers of forest dyed, the river blue, a hundred boats vying for the current.
Eagles soar in the sky, fish swim in the shallow water, all living things compete for freedom.
Sorrowful and vast, ask the vast earth, who will rise and fall?
Bringing a hundred companions to travel, reminiscing the past of the turbulent years.
Just like a young classmate, in his prime. Scholar's spirit, full of vigor.
Pointing out the country, inspiring words, the soil of the past ten thousand households.
Do you remember, hitting the water in the middle of the stream, the waves stop the flying boat? "
Liu Changan listened to the female voice reciting in his ear. He turned his head and looked at Qin Yanan with a joy that Qin Yanan had never seen before … She felt that the joy was a little naive and a little pitiful.
"Jin 'er, this is the new world that we created!"
Liu Changan pulled Qin Yanan's hand and carried her horizontally.
Qin Yanan was no longer afraid and shocked. She just looked at him silently.
Liu Changan carried her across the river and jumped onto the Du Fu Jiang Pavilion. He tiptoed on the decorated archway on Pozi Street and flew like a flying black eagle in the night sky. He leaped to the edge of the second building of Baolong Center.
He took a deep breath and sped up from the edge of the roof. Qin Yanan felt a strong wind blowing on her face. Suddenly, a feeling of time and space stagnation made her turn her head. She saw that her and Liu Changan's figures were more than 300 meters high in the sky!
Qin Yanan's heart jumped to her throat, but she still clenched her teeth tightly and did not let herself scream. The somewhat blurred street lights, the clear streets, and the rising and falling buildings were all under her feet.
"Phew …" Liu Changan put Qin Yanan down, bent down, pressed his hands on his knees, and gasped frequently. Even if it was him, at the last moment, he still made such a jump. He was almost an arrow at the end of its flight.
Qin Yanan was about to ask him if it was okay, but she saw him straighten his body again and pull Qin Yanan to the edge of the first building of Baolong Center.
It was also the place where he jumped for the first time here.
"Jin 'er, look at this prosperous world!"
He did not look back. Qin Yanan just stood beside him and silently looked at his side profile.
"At that time, we came to Shanghai. The city was very prosperous. You said that in the future, we must create such a prosperous city by ourselves!"
"Look, the prosperity that we created is right in front of us!"
"Everything that you yearned for, everything that you expected, and everything that you didn't even dare to think about, has been created!"
"You said that in the future, you wanted me to sit with you in a car made by our own country … So I went to a factory and worked as a car worker. You said that our country will have our own trains … So I went to work as a railway worker. You said that we should have our own top university to ensure the future development of our country, so I became a professor … You said that you wanted to achieve a lot of things, and I participated in them all, alone … "
"Look at the Ferris wheel over there. I want to sit with you, you'll definitely be very happy … Look at the bridge over there, back then we didn't even dare to think about it! Under this rushing river, can you believe that there are subways and cars shuttling back and forth? Jin 'er, I want to live with you in this world now! "
Qin Yanan's tears flowed like a spring. She didn't know why she wanted to cry so much. She tightly hugged the man beside her. "Brother! I'm here! "
Liu Changan lowered his head and gently stroked her long hair. His gaze fell on the city in front of him. Sometimes, dreams have come true, but it has nothing to do with you.
Jin 'er, brother … sometimes really misses you.
