I looked towards the direction Yang Mei was pointing at. There was a bridge next to St. Mark's Square. It was very small and old. It wouldn't even take a minute to walk from one side to the other.
Fortunately, I had come here before in my previous life, and because this bridge had a very special legend, I paid special attention to it. Now, seeing this small bridge again, I couldn't help but be fascinated and sigh!
When I was on a business trip in the past, I also came to this small bridge! But there was only one person …
"What's wrong with you?" Yang Mei saw that I didn't speak and asked strangely, "Are you thinking about what that bridge is? If you can't remember, then forget it, it doesn't matter. "
"Ah!" I recovered from my daze and looked at Yang Mei beside me. Thinking of my previous life, I secretly decided that I would never miss anything again!
"Yang Mei, this bridge is called the Sighing Bridge! It is a very famous bridge. Don't look at it because it is small and broken, but it is very famous overseas! " "On one side of the bridge is the Governor's Palace," I explained. "In the fifteenth century, it was the place where prisoners were tried, but none of the prisoners who were tried there ever made it out alive, because they were all prisoners sentenced to life imprisonment or death.
Before the execution, the last road they would take was this bridge because they had to cross the bridge to the prison on the other side to be executed. At that time, there were windows on the bridge and the prisoners could see the world for the last time. When crossing the bridge, the prisoners would look at the world they were about to leave and sigh with regret. Over time, even the bridge was affected and they would sigh. I heard that everyone who crossed the bridge couldn't help but sigh. Even if they were in a good mood, the moment they stood on the bridge, all of it would disappear. “
"Ah, so terrible!" Yang Mei listened to my explanation and quickly shook her head, "Then we shouldn't go there!"
"Hehe, how could that be! In fact, this bridge is now regarded as a symbol of good luck by many people! " I smiled, "Every year, countless lovers will run to this bridge to kiss. Because of the legend, kissing on the Sighing Bridge, love will last forever!"
As for whether the legend was true or not, I don't know. I didn't have the opportunity to verify it. In my previous life, I ran there by myself, I thought of Zhao Yanyan on the bridge, at that time, I really wished that she could stand by my side! But that was impossible. Looking at the couples kissing beside me, I was so disappointed that I couldn't help but sigh. It really lived up to the name "Bridge of Sighs"!
Yang Mei seriously listened to my words as she looked at the small bridge in front of her, lost in thought.
"Will he really live forever?" Suddenly, Yang Mei retracted her gaze and turned her head. She looked at me expectantly and said.
Looking at Yang Mei in front of me, I felt as if I had returned to my previous life. Some things could only be decided in an instant. After rebirth, there should be no more regrets!
I admit that it is my character that makes me irresolute and indecisive when it comes to matters. I am always overcautious. It was also because of this character that my love life in my previous life was such a failure! Although after rebirth, I changed a lot of my previous cowardice, in the end, I was still the original me, so it was impossible for my thoughts to change from one extreme to another.
It was also because of this that I was hesitant when it came to the women around me. On one hand, I blamed myself for being a playboy, thinking that I had enough women. On the other hand, I was constantly expanding my harem! Thinking about it carefully, this was simply looking for trouble! It was better to live a carefree life. Since I like them and have a good impression of them, and the other party doesn't mind, why do I have to think about so many useless things!
If I am happy, and if the person I love is happy, who cares what others think!
I didn't expect that revisiting this old place would let me understand some things, and also let the knot in my heart that had been troubling me for a long time be untied!
Without these psychological constraints, my whole body relaxed a lot, and it also made me more determined to cherish the decision in front of me.
When I heard Yang Mei's words, "Will he really live forever?" I firmly held Yang Mei's hand and said, "Let's try it and know!"
After listening to my words, Yang Mei stood there stupidly! Although this was what she was looking forward to hearing, at this moment, it was said by me. Yang Mei's mood was very complicated. Was it excitement or bitterness? Happiness was hard to come by, but who knew how long it would last?
Although I had just said that I could cure her illness, Yang Mei didn't take it seriously. After all, the experts in the hospital had already given her a death sentence. How could someone like me, who had never heard of a cure, be able to cure her illness?
So at this moment, Yang Mei was thinking, how long can she be with me? She really hoped that the legend I had just told her was true. That way, we could live together forever!
"Okay!" Whether the legend was true or not, being able to cherish what was in front of her was the most important thing! Yang Mei shyly nodded and quickly walked with me to the "Bridge of Sighs".
Yang Xiong and Li Xiaohong naturally wouldn't disturb us at this moment. Both of them coincidentally chose to be silent and motionless.
The lights in the square illuminated the river under the bridge, reflecting the small bridge and the buildings on the side. On the small bridge, there was actually a white couple snuggling up to each other!
Europeans and Americans were obviously more open. When they saw us, they didn't show any restrained expressions. Instead, they naturally regarded us as a couple and greeted us in a friendly manner, "We are here, you don't mind, right?"
"Of course!" I smiled and nodded to them.
However, Yang Mei wasn't so generous and was somewhat bashful. In the presence of outsiders, she naturally didn't have the courage to be intimate with me. So, she talked to the white couple, "I heard that if a couple kisses on this bridge, they will love each other forever?"
"Hehe, you also know about this legend!" The white girl was obviously a very enthusiastic person, "Yes, there is such a legend! However, this legend is just a simplified version. "
"Simplified version? What do you mean? "Yang Mei asked curiously.
"It's like this. In fact, the real legend is that if lovers sit here on our Gondola and pass by the Bridge of Sighs, the moment the bell rings, they will give each other a kiss. From then on, the two of them will be happy and love each other forever!" The white girl said.
"What is Gondola?" Yang Mei asked.
"Gondola is the name of a small boat here," The white girl explained with a smile.
"So that's how it is!" Yang Mei nodded and said to me with some regret, "It is really desirable!"
"Yes, it's so late, there won't be a boat. However, it is still a legend. I think that as long as two people are sincere, it will be fine! "The white girl said with regret.
