I am in a world where time stands still

Chapter 31
Li Ruoying's tone was calm, as if she hadn't experienced the sudden incident just now.

Or, is she suppressing her emotions on purpose?

Xiao Fan didn't understand, and couldn't figure it out.

He just turned around subconsciously.

With the moonlight and the lights beside the playground, he saw Li Ruoying's face.

Unexpectedly, on her face, Xiao Fan clearly saw an incomparable silence, as deep as the ocean.

"I……"

Xiao Fan bowed his head, somewhat incoherent.

After a long time, when he plucked up the courage again and carefully looked for Li Ruoying's eyes, he saw the boundless and crystal clear look in her eyes!
I seemed to be traveling unimpeded all the way, and under the reflection of the white moonlight and warm yellow lights, I could see Li Ruoying's inner world all the time.

Xiao Fan was startled.

This is the first time he has looked into Li Ruoying's eyes and her heart so thoroughly.

He seemed to understand something.

About loneliness, stubbornness, longing, despair, hope, disappointment...

Or, does he actually know nothing?

Dumb...

Li Ruoying's face was already calm and indifferent. She took a step forward and faced Xiao Fan closer and more clearly.

She said calmly, "I don't regret it."

hiss……

Xiao Fan's heart seemed to throb, and he almost lost his breath.

Li Ruoying's words for no reason made Xiao Fan completely confused in an instant.

His heart beat even more violently, even far beyond the overwhelmed after the long-distance raid just now.

At the same time, the blood surged and boiled in an instant, staining his face like a raging fire.

Xiao Fan was at a loss for words, and couldn't utter a single word for a while.

Li Ruoying went her own way and did not wait for Xiao Fan's response.

She continued to talk regardless, as if she was talking to Xiao Fan, but also to herself.

"But I'm the one who drew you into all of this. I didn't mean to..."

Li Ruoying's eyes had rare ripples, as if revealing some information.

For example, in her mirror-like calm inner lake, she is not so invulnerable and lonely forever.

"However, I really just felt helpless. At the awards ceremony, I was the champion and everyone was applauding me. Then, all of a sudden, I felt like an awkward actor. I Could just walk away, like I always do. But all of a sudden, I found myself wanting to change my usual way of behaving. I'm... tired of being alone, I'm afraid...

Really, I never did this before.I should be very calm and decent!At least it will support my so-called coldness!However, I don't know why, but I suddenly became weak, and I suddenly felt that it was all acting!Moreover, acting like that is really tiring and boring!Then, I saw your eyes, and I suddenly remembered the moment when the car accident happened, you actually stood in front of me, and earlier, when the plane was falling, you helped me hold me Oxygen masks for..."

Li Ruoying raised her head and looked into Xiao Fan's eyes. The ripples in those eyes fluttered like the surface of a lake blown by the autumn wind.

"I'm sorry, I should have thanked you, but I dragged you into the vortex again... But, when I looked at the entire awards ceremony and glanced at the thousands of pairs of eyes, I didn't know whose name I should call... I'm sorry, I miss my It's really selfish..."

For some reason, Li Ruoying said so much regardless.

Xiao Fan had never heard Li Ruoying say so much in one breath. Before that, Li Ruoying's words were always short and cold...

Xiao Fan opened his mouth slightly in surprise, but he didn't know how to respond.

Maybe Li Ruoying didn't need his response.

Perhaps, it would be good for him to stand here and listen.

But Xiao Fan didn't know what was right.

He really wanted to say words of comfort, but he didn't know where to start.

He was a little helpless, he actually wanted to say, I understand!

However, he knew he didn't really understand.

For a girl like Li Ruoying, from the day she was born, she has been surrounded by flowers and applause, gathering almost everyone's attention.

For such a girl, Xiao Fan automatically classifies her as someone from a world different from his own.

But at this time, hearing Li Ruoying talk to him a lot as if confiding, he was at a loss.

At this moment, his breathing became more rapid, and Xiao Fan's tongue became as stiff as wood.

But it doesn't matter, for Li Ruoying, it is very rare to have the opportunity to tell Xiao Fan these words that have been held back for a long time.

After talking so much, her face finally returned to its original calm and indifferent.

As if talking like just now, it didn't happen originally.

Perhaps, for Li Ruoying, the talking and listening just now was already a rare favor to her—she was already very satisfied.

Looking at each other, the two of them looked away at the same time.

The night was dark, and the two or three people who were running around the playground also ended their night run and left one after another.

In the silent playground, only Xiao Fan and Li Ruoying were left standing opposite each other.

……

Suddenly, in the depths of the starry sky at night, there was a faint rumbling sound.

From far to near, the sound gradually became louder.

However, listening to the sound, it seemed that something was coming towards their position quickly.

The two turned their heads in unison to find the source of the sound.

Rumble!
The sound has become much clearer!
In the starry sky at night, a very conspicuous bright star suddenly shines out!

This bright star is significantly brighter than all other stars, even brighter than the moonlight!
And the roar that was getting closer and closer came from this bright star!
"meteor?"

Xiao Fan subconsciously felt that this might be a meteor that rushed into the earth's atmosphere. Otherwise, this sound, this brightness...

However, suddenly, Xiao Fan and Li Ruoying opened their eyes wide at the same time.

its not right!
No matter what it is, this thing seems to be rushing towards Shuzhou University, rushing towards the two of them!
The change happened so fast that neither Xiao Fan nor Li Ruoying could react.

However, after a while, the rumbling roar has rapidly amplified, and it is much closer to them!
It was burning flames falling from the sky, becoming extremely dazzling, and lighting up the playground!
Is this special? !

Xiao Fan blinked again, and the "star" that flew down had already arrived in the air less than 200 meters above their heads!

In such a distance, Xiao Fan finally saw something was wrong!

That's not a meteor!
That's... a big iron hunchback!
The deep black cylindrical shell, due to the friction with the atmosphere, has been heated to the point of redness!

Billowing black smoke and flames emerged from both ends of the big iron cylinder, like a big and thick tree trunk being burned!
"I rely on!"

Xiao Fan seemed to see it.

That turned out to be... a rocket without a head, which is the middle propulsion part of the rocket!
