"By the way, remember to apologize to everyone for me.
"I left in such a hurry that I didn't have a chance to say goodbye to Ah Rou, Ouyang, and Ah Zeng.
"But I was actually really happy.
"I've met so many people in the past six months, and everyone in the class is very friendly. At first, I was worried that it would be difficult for me to fit in with everyone after I transferred to this school, but later I realized that I was thinking too much. Every day in Grade 12 Class 7 was very happy."
"I happened to be in the Shanghai Sixteen School League at that time, right?
"It was also the first time I met Ah Zeng, Hao Zi, and the others.
"And then there was the National High School League.
"I went to Guangzhou and then to Beijing. I trained, competed, and celebrated with everyone. It felt really good.
"It was just like … the atmosphere back then."
The pure white paper was emitting a faint fragrance of ink. Lin Feng glanced at the line of words written in the young girl's elegant handwriting.
Tang Bingyao pursed her lips and stood to the side, not making a sound.
However, his worried gaze never left a certain someone.
Lin Feng was also quiet.
He just continued to read the letter in silence.
"Actually —
"In the beginning, I was a little worried."
"Ever since you were young, your personality has never changed. You're always careless and careless, but in fact, you're super sensitive. You need friends, partners, and people to take care of you.
"About Ah Mo, Ah Qiu, and Eleven … we never had a good chat.
"But it's still a knot in your heart.
"Originally, if I had more time, I could accompany you to untie this knot in your heart."
"But now there's no other way. You can only face it and solve it yourself.
"I believe you can do it, right?
"At least now you have a lot of new friends and partners by your side. There's Tang Tang, Sister Xue, Ouyang, Old Yang, Ah Rou, and Ah Zeng, so … you won't be as lonely as before.
Time passed silently, and night slowly fell.
The sun was setting.
The sunset glow on the horizon gradually dispersed.
It was getting dark. Rows of street lamps lit up the streets. The dim yellow light from the street lamps softly illuminated the ground. It also illuminated the pure white paper in Lin Feng's hand.
When the words on the paper were blurred due to the soft and weak light, the content of the letter was read to the end.
"But, in addition to these friends and partners, you still have to work harder to be strong."
"Otherwise, when I first transferred here and saw how depressed you looked, I couldn't help but feel sorry for you and want to hug you."
"In the future … I won't be able to hug you anymore."
"I'm not by your side anymore."
"But don't make me worry, okay? Just continue to work hard like before. Live every day as optimistically and happily as before."
"Only then … that's the big idiot I'm familiar with."
"That's the only way. Even if we're not in the same city, not in the same country, separated by a distant ocean —"
"Under the sky of Manchester, I will still smile happily for you."
"I hope you feel the same."
"Okay?"
…
The content of the letter was read to the end.
Lin Feng lowered his head and remained silent.
His fluffy black hair and bangs covered his face, and the side of his face under the dim yellow street lights cast a shadow on his face that couldn't be seen clearly.
His shoulders twitched slightly.
It was very subtle.
But he couldn't stop it. It gradually became more and more obvious.
Tang Bingyao had been standing not too far away from Lin Feng since the beginning. Her eyes were red, but when she noticed Lin Feng's movements, she immediately panicked. She anxiously rushed forward.
"Lin Feng."
"Lin Feng, are you okay?"
"Don't scare me!"
He couldn't help but sound like he was about to cry.
This kind of thing was already difficult enough for a simple girl like her to keep a secret, let alone in this kind of situation. On one side, there was An Xin, who was like her best friend and sister, and on the other side, there was Lin Feng, who she secretly liked in her heart …
For the sake of one side, she had to keep it a secret from the other.
After so many days, she was also in a state of sadness and struggle.
Originally, when she had given the letter to Lin Feng, she felt relieved. However, when she saw Lin Feng's reaction, Tang Bingyao's heart couldn't help but tighten again.
Lin Feng took a deep breath and slowly raised his head. His eyes were slightly red, but he was trying his best to control his emotions.
"I'm fine."
Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng turned around and quickly walked towards the intersection of the street not far away.
Tang Bingyao hurriedly caught up to him.
"Lin Feng, w-where are you going?"
At this moment, Lin Feng had already flagged down a taxi and quickly replied, "That's right.
"The airport!"
Tang Bingyao was dumbfounded.
Her first reaction was to rush to the airport to see Steamed Bun. Considering his flight time, he wouldn't make it in time.
The girl pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She just squeezed into the back seat of the taxi with Lin Feng.
No matter what …
She was worried about Lin Feng. She didn't want Lin Feng to do anything by himself.
"Sir, to Pudong Airport!"
Lin Feng sat in the back seat of the taxi and quickly closed the door. He quickly ordered the driver and added, "Don't worry.
"Hurry up!
"As fast as you can!"
… …
The taxi sped down the highway.
Under someone's constant urging, the driver had already accelerated to the limit of the speed limit of the overpass. He was like a lightning bolt, continuously overtaking the vehicles in front of him, all the way to the destination, Pudong Airport.
Even so, Lin Feng was still repeating the same words.
"Master, faster!"
"Faster!"
"Faster!"
The driver in the front seat was excited. "Still not enough? Little bro, you're in a bit of a rush. Watch me! "
With that, the driver stepped on the gas and the car sped up even more.
Meanwhile.
Shanghai, Pudong International Airport.
Along with the staff's reminders constantly ringing in the waiting hall, An Xin, Father An, and Mother An also carried their luggage to the boarding gate.
The girl seemed a little uneasy.
Next to her, Mother An noticed her daughter's state and asked softly,
"Steamed Bun, what's wrong?"
An Xin came back to her senses and gently bit her lips, then shook her head: "No, I'm fine."
Father An looked at An Xin and sighed. "Later, when we get on the plane, our cell phones should be turned off. In this last bit of time, do you want to give Lin Feng a call … or at least send a text message to say goodbye?"
The girl fell silent.
After a while, she shook her head and forced a smile.
"It's fine.
I've already said everything I wanted to say. "
