In the forest, only Changqing and Lin Lin remained. At first, Changqing felt a bit shy and didn't know how to start the conversation, simply gazing at Lin Lin with a silly smile. Lin Lin smiled back charmingly, "You asked Wen Xin to call me here, didn't you? What’s on your mind?"
Changqing continued to smile foolishly, thinking for a moment before saying, "It's nothing much, just wanted to chat with you!" His face turned red as he spoke.
Lin Lin turned her back to Changqing and asked, "Just chatting? Then go ahead! I'm listening!"
Changqing was momentarily at a loss for words, standing there blankly for a while before saying, "Wen Sheng and I are very good friends!" He felt embarrassed after uttering such a trivial statement.
Lin Lin secretly found it amusing and occasionally nibbled on her fingernails. Her fingers were slender and long, with well-shaped nails that looked lovely. She kept nibbling on her nails while quietly laughing, her back turned to Changqing. All he could see was her hand near her mouth. Watching her silhouette made him daydream a little.
Finally gathering his courage, Changqing pulled out a letter from his pocket. It was a letter made of fancy stationery with floral edges, folded into an exquisite square shape. He gently touched Lin Lin's hand with it. Feeling shy, he said, "You take this and read it later! Hehe!" He secretly brushed his fingers against hers; they felt smooth and slightly warm. His heart raced at the contact.
Lin Lin took the letter but didn’t open it! She simply nodded with a flushed face. Then she turned to look at Changqing and smiled softly; her smile was somewhat enchanting. Changqing found himself entranced, looking rather foolish. Lin Lin chuckled softly, lowering her head as her silky long hair cascaded down. She tucked her hair aside shyly and said, "If there’s nothing else? I’ll head back now!"
Changqing certainly didn’t want Lin Lin to leave so soon. He gently tugged at her hand, merely grasping one of her fingers. Holding it tightly, he was reluctant to let go. Lin Lin's face turned even redder. After letting him hold her for a moment, she gently pulled away, asking, "What are you doing?"
Changqing replied foolishly, "Just stay for a bit longer! You don’t have anything else to do at home right now! Let’s chat some more?"
In truth, Lin Lin didn’t really want to leave; she was just feeling shy. With Changqing's invitation to stay, she paused and looked up at the moon peeking through the treetops, smiling gently! She flicked her dark silky hair lightly. She appeared delicate and quite charming. Then she repeated softly, "Go ahead! I'm listening!"
Changqing looked somewhat troubled; he wanted to express his feelings for her but couldn’t find the words. After thinking for a moment, he suggested, "How about I sing you a song?"
Lin Lin smiled and turned back to him, saying, "Sure! Go ahead! What songs can you sing?"
Changqing picked up the guitar, and surprisingly, he looked quite the part. Then, following the rhythm of the guitar, he began to sing: "Like a gentle rain falling deep within my heart, that feeling is so mysterious." I couldn't help but lift my head to look at you, yet you remained unperturbed. Though silent, your presence was unforgettable. It was your gaze, bright and beautiful.
Lin Lin listened intently, tapping her foot against the ground as if keeping time for him. Changqing sang earnestly; his guitar playing was decent, and his voice was good too. Lin Lin was captivated. Changqing mimicked a heartfelt expression, closing his eyes and swaying his head, his body moving with the rhythm.
When the song ended, Lin Lin seemed lost in the melody, her face displaying a natural smile. But she quickly snapped back to reality, clapping her hands and laughing at Changqing, "You know what? You really can sing! It sounds great!"
Even though Yi Ren's praise was simple, it made Changqing feel overjoyed, and he smiled widely. Proudly stroking his beloved guitar, he pretended to be professional by bending down and striking a pose with it. Then he placed his hand near his mouth as if holding a microphone, grinning as he said, "Thank you! Thank you!" He even bowed to Lin Lin, making her feel like a fan of his.
Lin Lin couldn't contain her laughter, covering her mouth with her hand. "You can do this! Haha! I can't take you seriously!" After another chuckle, she asked, "Can you sing 'When the Peaks Lose Their Edges'?"
Changqing could definitely sing that song; it was one that almost anyone could manage a few lines of. So he strummed the guitar again and mimicked Power Station's style, passionately performing the song! However, since Power Station had two members and Changqing was trying to emulate all the rhythms alone, it felt a bit challenging. Lin Lin hummed along softly with Changqing's rhythm. Yet her interest wasn't solely in the song; when Changqing finished singing, she applauded enthusiastically.
Changqing knew his imitation wasn't perfect but still apologized: "The guitar rhythm is too monotonous; it affected my performance. Plus, Power Station has two people—doing it alone is a bit tough! If it didn't sound good, please forgive me!" He bowed again toward Lin Lin.
Lin Lin clapped happily and praised him: "Not bad at all! It sounded just like on TV! Very nice!"
Naturally, Changqing felt delighted! He wanted to take Lin Lin's hand again but felt a bit shy about it. They stood there for a moment until Lin Lin smiled at him and said, "It's getting late; if we don't go back soon, my mom will worry!"
Although Changqing wanted to stay longer to talk with Lin Lin, he understood that girls shouldn't be out too late at night for safety reasons. He sighed and said, "Alright! When can we meet again?"
Lin Lin looked a bit shy as she replied, "Let's see! Just have Wen Xin contact me!"
At that moment, Wen Sheng and Wen Xin were sitting on a tree stump outside the woods chatting. Wen Xin laughed and asked, "Er Ge, does Qing Ge want to date Linlin?"
Wen Sheng simply smiled and nodded without saying a word.
“Er Ge! Do you like Linlin?” Wen Xin asked curiously.
“I like her! But it’s not the kind of love you think! You wouldn’t understand it now!” Wen Sheng gently patted Wen Xin’s head.
“Er Ge! Do you like Sister Lijuan?” Wen Xin continued, turning her face to look at Wen Sheng. Her big eyes stared at him without blinking.
Wen Sheng looked up at the moonlit sky and sighed deeply, “I don’t know! I really don’t know!”
Seeing that Wen Sheng seemed a bit sad, Wen Xin didn’t press further and simply leaned against him. They both looked up at the moon, which was very round!
After a while, Wen Xin seemed to have something on her mind. She gently nudged Wen Sheng’s arm, “Er Ge! In the past, on my birthday, Mom would always boil me two eggs! This time, can you ask Mom to make more? I want to share them with you! I saw Sister Lin’s toy cat, and it looks so nice.” Wen Xin didn’t continue; she knew Er Ge didn’t have much say at home either.
Wen Sheng looked at Wen Xin with affection, gently wrapping his arm around her shoulders. Wen Xin leaned against him. The snow-like moonlight bathed them both, and neither of them spoke for a long time.
At that moment, Changqing and Lin Lin walked out from the woods.
