Recalling 2001
When Vivian pushed open the office door and came in, her expression was particularly complex. When she looked at Yu Tian, she was weak and anxious, but when she looked at me, she was fierce, as if she wanted to execute me on the spot.
Finally, she professionally returned to her expressionless face, "Director Yu."
The next words were spoken by her, leaning close to Yu Tian's ear. I only noticed that Yu Tian's worried eyes returned to calmness in an instant, even suppressing anger.
He glared at me with a gaze that almost pierced through me.
Before they left, Vivian quickly walked up to me and snatched the phone out of my pocket, loudly saying, "You're not going anywhere until this is settled!"
Yu Tian stood by, silently representing consent. He and Vivian only communicated through eye contact, and in the end, Vivian didn't forget to lock the office door.
I was locked in like this, and four big words appeared in my mind - inexplicable.
After they left, my gaze returned to that glass bottle again. It wasn't an ordinary glass bottle. For me and Yu Tian, every single coin inside it held great significance.
The origin of this bottle dates back to a very, very long time ago.
At that time, Yu Tian and I had just gotten together and hadn't even had a chance to make a big impact yet.
At that time, I often sneaked into the boys' dormitory of the medical university with Chunzi. The first time I found this bottle was when Yu Tian was throwing coins into it, his arm raised and fell accurately, the coins drew a neat arc in the air before falling into the glass bottle one by one.
Google blew a loud whistle on one side.
He said that Yu Tian would put a one-yuan coin into the bottle every night, probably saving money to marry me after graduation.
I did a little calculation in my heart, seven years multiplied by three hundred and sixty-five days, that number is absolutely not big enough.
So when Japan re-released "The Star Coin" and issued a limited edition coin, I asked Dajiang to buy one and send it back to me. Then, I put that coin into Yu Tian's glass bottle.
But the next day, Yu Tian found me in a very angry mood. He forced open my hand without saying anything and returned the gold coins to me.
I burst into tears and then threw the gold coins into the scenic pool of the Medical University in front of him.
That was my first cold war with Yu Tian. A few days later, just when I thought we were going to end like this, Yu Tian came to our school gate to pick me up after school for the first time. As soon as he appeared, he was recognized as the former school grass who had graduated a few months ago. I always thought he didn't want others to know that we were together, but he held my hand and took me away in a high-profile manner.
He also told the passing instructor that I was his girlfriend and if I dared to have an early love affair with other boys in school, the instructor must severely punish me.
I stared at him foolishly, laughing like an idiot.
That whole afternoon I was restless, I was especially afraid that he would suddenly change his mind. In the evening, Yu Tian sent me home, and under my building, he opened my hand again, and the gold coins that had been thrown into the pool were recovered.
My eyes were about to turn red when he said with a stern face, "Don't cry."
He had just finished speaking when he let out a series of sneezes, and his eyes turned red like mine. The tears that had been suppressed for so long finally burst forth in a torrent. I remember it was winter then, and the water in the artificial pool was not deep but very cold.
It was also from then on that I firmly believed in Yu Tian's love for me.
As I gaze at this glass bottle, it seems like I can still see him standing in the pool helping me find coins, his eyebrows must have been frozen into a frown.
Love is really a tragic thing, there are never two people who are evenly matched. One person always has to stop supplying their love first, while the other has to face a solitary life, and even death.
