Fake it on a dating show

When she got home, Lin Xingyue was about to fall asleep.

Zhao Minglang parked the car, got out of the car, walked around to the other side and opened the car door. She wanted to carry Lin Xingyue out, but Lin Xingyue had already woken up before that.

"Miss Ming Lang."

Lin Xingyue leaned on the back of the chair, her eyes gradually became clear from the confusion when she first woke up, reflecting the reflection of the person in front of her.

She grabbed Zhao Minglang's extended hand, preventing him from retreating.

Zhao Minglang had no choice but to stay where he was, and asked her in a low voice: "What's wrong? I've already arrived home..."

A certain word touched Lin Xingyue, and her eyes became softer.

"I'm really happy. Sister Minglang can pick me up." Lin Xingyue hugged Zhao Minglang's waist, buried her face in her arms, and said in a muffled voice, "You won't Don't want me?"

Before Zhao Minglang could reply, Lin Xingyue went on to say: "That's okay, as long as I like you very much now. I like you very much...I will try my best to like you even more."

Zhao Minglang's hands froze in the air.

Only then did she vaguely understand that the "like" Lin Xingyue said was exactly the liking she understood—it was no different from her liking for Lin Xingyue.

This includes every sentence of "like" I said before.

It's just too magnanimous, Zhao Minglang didn't dare to think deeply.

But when the facts came before her, she couldn't suppress the softness and joy in her heart, and the contours of her face softened a bit.

"Well, I like you very much too." Zhao Minglang said, "Every second I like you more than before."

Lin Xingyue let out a "puchi" laugh, probably amused, she smiled sullenly for a while, and her face was red when she raised her head again.

Zhao Minglang was a little surprised, as if he didn't know that Lin Xingyue, a silly girl, would blush, and couldn't help but want to reach out and pinch the little prickly dimple she made.

Lin Xingyue was a little bolder than Zhao Minglang imagined.

She grabbed Zhao Minglang's hand, got up and put her arms around his neck.

Zhao Minglang thought she wanted him to hug her, but in fact Lin Xingyue leaned over and gave her a kiss.

on the lips.

Also fell on the heart.

Seeing Lin Xingyue's shy face and trembling eyelashes watching her, Zhao Minglang kissed her back.

In a secluded corner, they made a small tacit agreement.

The competition cycle is not long or short, but after participating in it, time flies like water.

When Zhao Minglang was free, he would sit in the auditorium and watch the live games. If he didn't have time, he would try his best to pick up Lin Xingyue after he was busy. On the way, Lin Xingyue would tell her about the game.

Just as she expected, Lin Xingyue easily rushed to the finish line with a memory cheat that was comparable to a cheating device.

It was only this month that Zhao Minglang became acquainted with Yan Yi again - relying on the fate of sitting in the same family seat.

Yan Yi and his girlfriend would occasionally complain jokingly, saying that Lin Xingyue's participation in this competition would be a blow to other people's dimensionality reduction. If you have this time, you might as well go back and do research, maybe a grand prize will be born just like that. up.

But when Lin Xingyue won without any suspense in the end, they also sincerely sent their blessings.

"When will the elementary school sister go back to school?" The two also asked her.

"At least wait until the activities here are over." Lin Xingyue referred to the matter of going to the mountains later, "There are some things that must be understood first."

No matter how others say it's a pity to give up, Lin Xingyue doesn't want to spend her life in a muddle because of this.

There are obviously better choices, why do you have to choose the path that causes you the most pain?

This is what Zhao Minglang said to Lin Xingyue.

Lin Xingyue wanted to find a better way now.

The matter of going to the mountains was finalized a week later, Yan Yi's girlfriend missed the final, and was ranked outside the top ten in the end. She didn't even get a consolation prize, so naturally she couldn't follow her.

Fortunately, the two were in a good state of mind. They were just taking time to relax. They left a new contact information with Lin Xingyue and said goodbye after the game.

During this week, Lin Xingyue was not idle either. She was arranged by the program team to participate in volunteer activities, and she had to pick out some stationery together as small gifts to take with her.

She is just like playing, every day when she goes out, she is happy and full of energy.

On the contrary, Zhao Minglang was worried.

This is Lin Xingyue's first time traveling far away for a long time, and she has a simple temperament. Zhao Minglang was afraid that she would be deceived, and also afraid that she would not be used to being outside.

From eating habits to changing clothes and washing utensils, I thought twice about everything. I wished I could pack an all-round nanny and express it there. In the end, I really stuffed two new mobile phones in the suitcase.

Even the paper contact information has been backed up several times, and put into different pockets one by one, in case there is any accident on the way and the contact cannot be made.

The assistant who knew about it couldn't hold back from complaining behind his back, he really looked like a worried old woman, but Zhao Minglang caught him straight.

But the assistant who usually cherishes words like gold is right, Zhao Minglang glared at him irritably and waved him away.

On the day of departure, Zhao Minglang deliberately spared time to send her to the gathering place, and kept talking non-stop on the way because of anxiety and worry.

Lin Xingyue knew that she was worried about herself, so she didn't get impatient, so she nodded her head one by one, but she still couldn't help laughing in the end.

"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Minglang asked her.

"I feel like an elementary school student who went out for an outing." The parents who were overly worried grabbed and babbled non-stop, even such trivial things as drinking water and eating would take the trouble to ask them again and again.

But in fact, Lin Xingyue had never really experienced this feeling from her parents.

Now I feel it by accident, I just find it novel and interesting.

Seeing Lin Xingyue laughing uncontrollably, Zhao Minglang's worries were relieved, and he couldn't help but smile along with him, and finally stopped talking.

She just gave Lin Xingyue a kiss and two instructions when she got off the car: "Be careful on the road. Remember to miss me."

Lin Xingyue blinked, and the dimples on her cheeks were faintly visible, she said, "Okay."

Lin Xingyue was looking forward to the long trip.

In the past, except for competitions, she rarely had the opportunity to leave home and school, and occasionally traveled far away in a hurry, and had no time to wander around in different cities, so it was not considered to have been there.

Ever since she ran away from home, deep down in her heart, she might have wanted to visit different places in the world.

It's just that the ties of the family and the distress of the economy made her only able to cross one urban area.

Lin Xingyue didn't want to give up such a rare opportunity to travel far, but she also instinctively felt that she might be able to find some answers from it.

In addition to the people from the TV station, there were also volunteers from the non-profit organization in charge of the project. One of them, Mr. Wen, had been in charge of introducing the situation to Lin Xingyue, and the two naturally became familiar with each other.

Teacher Wen is six years older than Lin Xingyue, and he is nearly thirty and still unmarried.

Her appearance can only be described as delicate and pretty, but she has a demure demeanor, and she looks gentle and gentle, which makes people feel very comfortable.

When chatting privately, Teacher Wen mentioned that she just rejected a blind date last time, and she was afraid that she would be lonely for the rest of her life.

But she didn't look regretful either, and it was more because of the warm recommendation from her relatives that she took a look at it because of the kindness.

After reading it, I politely refused in private, saying that I didn't want to drag others down.

Teacher Wen went to that mountain area as a volunteer teacher five years ago when she just graduated from university. She came back a year ago because her mother was ill. At the beginning of this year, her mother died of a serious illness. She also tried to find a stable job to stabilize herself, but she still felt What was missing, I finally made up my mind to go back recently.

Many people find it incomprehensible that her wonderful youth was spent in that desolate and backward mountain village, especially when she was a girl.

Her relatives and classmates couldn't understand her, and even the volunteers of the charity organization persuaded her to think about herself.

Teacher Wen just smiled and thanked them for their kindness, but he still went his own way in life choices.

Of course, there are many people who admire her very much, including Lin Xingyue.

The road to the mountain village was long and bumpy, and they talked a lot in the car.

Teacher Wen had some words that impressed Lin Xingyue deeply.

She said that she is actually not as great as other people imagined, and she did not choose this path purely for those empty big loves, but for herself.

"In the final analysis, human beings are creatures that satisfy their own selfish desires, no matter how great they are, it's just that each person can obtain satisfaction in different things. Seeing those children who can get out of the isolated mountain village and gain the right to choose their own life, It will make me feel fulfilled and fulfilled—the joy outweighs all the pain in it, so I’ll do it.”

Lin Xingyue heard it in a daze, she rarely heard such words.

The responsibilities and pressures I heard at home all came from the outside world, for the wishes of the father, for the mood of the mother, for the reputation of the family, for the society, and for the people, except for what she should do for herself.

She does not deny the greatness of those great loves, but those things are too empty and far away for immature people, without a sense of reality, it is like stepping on a cloud, not knowing where to settle.

This is the root of her distress. She agrees with those pressures and responsibilities, but feels troubled and even painful because she cannot fit into her heart.

What if it's just for yourself?

Lin Xingyue vaguely seemed to catch something.

It's like trying to save a person who fell down the road. When you start to deliberately consider the so-called morality and social responsibility, you will inevitably start to weigh the responsibilities and consequences you need to bear at the same time, which sometimes makes people daunting.

But if you just think that you will regret and feel guilty if you don’t help, even if you hesitate, most people will eventually help.

Sometimes what people pursue is no regrets, no regrets.

If you can do it but don't do it, you will regret it.

If you want to do it but don't do it, you will regret it.

It was already late at night when Lin Xingyue arrived at the destination.

Before Zhao Minglang left, he repeatedly asked her to call her after arriving no matter how late it was, so Lin Xingyue looked at the time on the screen of the mobile phone after two o'clock in the morning, hesitated for a moment, and dialed the other party's number.

The call was quickly connected.

Zhao Minglang didn't fall asleep at all, just waiting for Lin Xingyue's call.

Hearing that she was in the town, he finally calmed down and asked a few words in a gentle voice.

They also sent messages to each other on the road, and they never lost contact, but when they really heard each other's voice, they seemed to have endless words to say.

Lin Xingyue had slept in the car for a long time, and she wasn't sleepy at all at this time, lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling of the dark room, she didn't feel sleepy at all.

But she still remembered that Zhao Minglang was going to work, so she urged her to go to bed early.

"It doesn't matter. Tomorrow's meeting is canceled temporarily, and there is no need to go to the company in the morning." Seeing that Lin Xingyue was not sleepy, Zhao Minglang was even more reluctant to hang up the phone. "You may not have a signal when you go to the village tomorrow, and you don't know when you will contact me again. Come chat with me for a while."

"Well, good." Lin Xingyue turned over, buried half of her face in the quilt, lowered her voice and continued to chat with Zhao Minglang.

She talked about some interesting things that happened on the road, and talked about the wonderful decorations at the entrance of the hotel where she was temporarily staying, and the patterns of small flowers printed on the sheets...

Finally, I talked about Mr. Wen.

She didn't elaborate on Teacher Wen's special point of view, but only said that her experience and choices were admirable.

What's more, the other party has a gentle and tolerant personality, and told her a lot of things, which helped a lot.

The intention is to say that the people on the same team have good personalities and will take care of others, and I want Zhao Minglang to rest assured that he should not always worry about himself.

However, exaggerating the beauty of others too much made Zhao Minglang a little sour——

The admiration and affection in Lin Xingyue's words were almost overflowing.

Intellectually, he knew that it was pure admiration, but a woman in love is unreasonable. After hearing what she said, Zhao Minglang couldn't help asking: "Could it be that she is better than me?"

It sounds a bit aggrieved.

Lin Xingyue hurriedly went to coax her: "Of course you are the best! In my mind, Sister Minglang is the best person in the world."

Zhao Minglang easily felt satisfied, and his voice was a little more gentle: "Are you happy outside?"

She wants to say that if you are not having fun outside, go home early.

No matter where she is, she can go there immediately to bring people back.

But hearing that Lin Xingyue was jumping for joy the whole time, I knew she was happy.

Lin Xingyue obviously likes the outside world very much, maybe it is more suitable for the outside world.

Zhao Minglang wanted to be relieved but a little bit disappointed. He hoped that she would be happy, but also regretted that she could not always be by Lin Xingyue's side.

If Lin Xingyue really drifted away like a gust of wind, if she couldn't catch her, she would regret it for the rest of her life.

Unable to grasp the real things will inevitably make people panic.

Zhao Minglang had already thought about the long future, Xu Shi was prone to sentimentality in the dead of night, and couldn't help feeling a little sour in his heart.

But Lin Xingyue thought of the past.

"Actually, I am very grateful to Teacher Wen." Lin Xingyue whispered, "She made me understand one thing."

"What's the matter?" Zhao Minglang asked.

"If you don't do some things when you can, you will regret it in the future." Lin Xingyue said.

Zhao Minglang was puzzled at first, and asked her: "So?"

Lin Xingyue said, "I like you."

Zhao Minglang was stunned for a moment.

Lin Xingyue grabbed the phone and turned over. Even though there was no outsider in the room, she still couldn't help but bury her face in the quilt again, almost her whole body was stuffed into the quilt.

I don't know if it is because of this, the heat on her face gradually increased, and the back of her hand felt terribly hot when she touched it.

"I planned to tell you face to face when I got back, but I don't want to wait any longer, I want to tell you now." Lin Xingyue said in a low voice, "I like you, Sister Minglang, I have liked you since the first time we met I can't control it anymore, and I like you a little more today than yesterday."

The author has something to say: It feels like there are at most three or four chapters left to finish (Laughs...

I don’t want to write too many twists and turns, let this book be a happy cookie, and I wish you all a happy life, okay?
