Chapter 216 Sun
The two got up before dawn.

It was a bit chilly outside, so everyone put on thin coats.

Xie Bingran was wearing a set of silver sportswear, which made her look very heroic with her tall figure and neat short hair.

She put her hands in her pockets and looked up and down at Xu Chen, who was still putting on his coat.

Xu Chen put on a thin jacket:
“I’ll have to learn from you and wear sportswear, which is light and comfortable.

These jackets, jeans, khakis, and things like that are pretty uncomfortable to wear.”

Xie Bingran: "Then next time I go to the team to get clothes, I'll get you a set in a larger size."

Xu Chen: "Is this still divided by gender?"

Xie Bingran looked down at the clothes on his body:
“It seems that there is no difference…”

Xu Chen: “…”

It was too early and the hotel restaurant was not open.

Xie Bingran took out a nut bar, broke it in half and shared it with Xu Chen as a morning energy supplement.

In fact, the sunrise can be seen from the hotel halfway up the mountain, but the two still decided to climb to the highest point of Baiyun Mountain.

In terms of absolute altitude, Baiyun Mountain can only be regarded as a small hill. It is located at the highest point of "Moshing Ridge" and its altitude is less than 400 meters.

The street lights were on on the road up the mountain, and there were quite a few tourists traveling together, most of them going to watch the sunrise.

Among them are some elderly people with strong bodies, who obviously insist on exercising every day after retirement.

Xu Chen couldn't help but feel some emotion.

These energetic old people are probably only in their sixties.

For example, many poor villagers in Tiancheng are still doing hard manual labor in their sixties and seventies to support their families...

……

On Mount Davis, some early risers have already gathered on the sunrise viewing platform.

They gathered together in twos and threes, waiting for the sunrise.

A faint white light began to appear in the eastern sky.

Xu Chen took a deep breath. The mountain air was refreshing.

Xie Bingran was out of breath and pointed to an empty space:
"Let's go there!"

This was a good spot, as there happened to be a large flat rock for the two of them to sit down on.

Maybe it's not facing east, so no one comes to sit here. But the view is just right, much better than the crowded east platform.

The two sat side by side, feeling the coolness of the mountains in the early morning.

It is still midsummer, and it is rare to feel this coolness in Guangzhou.

From this observation deck, you can overlook Guangzhou.

Under the faint light from the east, the outlines of the low mountains in the distance and the numerous buildings surrounded by the mountains gradually emerged.

Xie Bingran looked at the distant horizon and whispered:
"Xu Chen... I didn't expect that I would appear here in this way."

She suddenly lowered her head, as if showing a trace of loneliness:
“I originally found a job in an electronics factory near Yangcheng.

I thought that my life would be like that.

Be a factory girl, continue to smoke and fight, change places and be an 'ice brother'...

At that time, I was still imagining what the legendary 'big city' would look like, and I would go out and take a look when the factory was closed for the holidays. "

Xu Chen smiled:
"Now that you have seen it, are you satisfied?"

Xie Bingran turned and looked at Xu Chen: "I am very satisfied."

She looked toward the distant sky again:
“At that time, the salary at the electronics factory was less than 3,000 yuan a month.

Now I am participating in a competition, and the total prize money is 300,000...

I’m afraid that one day I’ll open my eyes and find out that all this is fake.”

……

There was a sudden commotion among the crowd in front.

The men and women crowded in front all raised their cameras and mobile phones. Xu Chen and Xie Bingran looked up and saw a ray of red light quietly emerging from the horizon.

The light was soft and shy at first, but in an inadvertent moment, it became blazing and dazzling, outlining the winding mountains and city buildings with gorgeous golden edges.

And that fiery red sphere finally broke free from the constraints of the horizon and leaped into the sky with an unquestionable sense of power.

The back of this city is lit up.

……

Xie Bingran looked at the red sun and suddenly whispered:
"Xu Chen, that sun...

It seems to be you!"

Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xie Bingran's profile.

She was still looking at the sky, lost in thought:
“I always felt that I was living in darkness…it was you who brought the sunshine in.

There was a time when I lost you.

But fortunately, you are back now, and you bring the sunshine in again..."

The rays of the morning sun shine on her delicate and beautiful profile. Her hair flutters and her big eyes sparkle.

Xu Chen lowered his head slightly and found that Xie Bingran's right hand was tightly grasping the corner of his clothes.

"I've already lost you once, and I'm scared...

I accidentally lost you again."

She turned and looked at Xu Chen.

Tears all over my face...

Xu Chen's heart shrank, and a soft spot deep in his soul was touched again.

He reached down his left hand and gently held Xie Bingran's right hand, which was holding the corner of his clothes.

Xie Bingran pursed her lips, and her big eyes were blurred.

Xu Chen raised his right hand and wiped away a hot tear from her cheek with the back of his fingers.

"Silly girl, you won't lose me."

Xie Bingran bit her lip:

“If I do anything wrong, tell me.

I'll change it, I promise...

Don’t just ignore me like you did before…”

The tears could not stop flowing and rolled down her delicate and beautiful cheeks.

Perhaps Xu Chen didn't realize it until this moment.

I have been drifting away from Xie Bingran since junior high school, and we no longer even talk to each other. I wonder how much I hurt her.

Xu Chen suddenly remembered that day, after training in the dilapidated playground, Xie Bingran boarded the bus back to No. 1 Middle School...

When the car door was about to close, Xie Bingran suddenly asked:
"Xu Chen, why are you talking to me all of a sudden?"

The real answer to this question was actually very simple, but it was impossible to explain to Xie Bingran. After all, the original intention of being reborn and hanging out with a "future rich woman" was somewhat irrelevant and indecent.

But at this moment.

On the highest peak of this southern city, under the bright red morning sun, in the blurred vision of my poor classmate...

The answer that seemed simple and straightforward to Xu Chen himself suddenly became extremely complicated.

It turns out that the reason I'm talking to you again is not just to get close to you, my future rich woman.

It turns out that during those years when I didn't say a word to you, I also wanted to talk to you.

It turns out that I was getting along with a girl named Zhao Linlin for a period of time, just because she occasionally liked to be fed by me, just like you.

It turns out that you are the biggest regret in my life when I was in my thirties and forties...

Xu Chen reached out and touched Xie Bingran's tear-stained cheek.

He asked in a questioning tone:
"Xie Bingran, can you hug me?"
