clinging to you, imprisoning the past

"Have you ever wondered what would happen if one day we were separated?"

Looking at the fireworks blooming in the dark night, Shen Jue's eyes also flickered.When he asked this question, Zhou Zhi thought for a long time.

For 15 years, he has not come out.

"I will regret it for the rest of my life, no matter who mentioned it." He lowered his head and licked the snow on the ground with his snow boots, making some muffled noises.

Everyone was wearing thick padded jackets, making the crowd even more crowded, and there was not even a single gap in the huge square.Everyone, including the world, is waiting.

When the bell rings to No.12, the new century will come.

The New Year's Eve party was played on the big screen, the singers sang various songs, and the clock at the bottom of the screen was walking slowly.

There are still 10 minutes, Zhou Zhi is counting.

Everyone's eyes are shining, the light of anticipation for the new life in 2000, the bright light after the dust accumulated in life has been swept away, these lights are like fireworks in the sky, enough to illuminate the dark night.

He looked at Shen Zhuo and found that he was also looking over.

Shen Jue sniffed.

"It's so fast, it will be eight years soon."

Zhou Zhi nodded. He saw the little snowflakes hanging gently on Shen Zhuo's hair, so he raised his hand to sweep them away.Shen Zhuo seemed to have remembered something, and suddenly smiled with the corners of his eyes curled up.

"Do you remember that I was better than you in every exam in high school?"

He looked at the teenager who was sitting on a bench not far away, joking with his friends. They were about the same age as them at that time, and they were all young.Zhou Zhi followed Shen Zhuo's gaze and looked over.

"When I first entered school, I thought you were very interesting. You are a boring person. I just thought, what would happen if such a boring person jumped up and down in anger." He looked at Zhou Zhi's face and thought about it.

"So I lured you to be at the same table..." At this point, Zhou Zhi squinted at him, and twisted Shen Zhuo's waist forcefully with lightning speed, causing him to gasp in pain.

"Little bastard, no wonder that girl wants to put her eyes on me."

Shen Jue snorted.

"Before the exam, she will tell me about your studies, and I will roughly estimate your grades. After you come out, you will be close to each other. I know how to surpass you every time. You bookworm, I want to surpass you. It's exhausting."

Zhou Zhi looked at Shen Zhuo with extreme contempt.

"Why are you so bored?!"

"Who knew that you are really a piece of wood, so I have to bother you every day..." Shen Jue smiled treacherously, looking very flat.

"I wonder if you have become a monk secretly. You have been silent all day, and you almost shaved your head. If I was not smart, I found that you played well..."

"Damn?" Zhou Zhi was shocked from ear to ear.

"Damn you pretending?!"

Shen Jue once again raised his chin meanly.

"Nonsense, I'm such a perfect person, how can I look like a disabled person when I play ball?" Zhou Zhi pinched his face with one hand as soon as he finished speaking, and screamed with a ferocious expression.

"You're very capable...you've lied to me until now?" Zhou Zhi pretended to be angry, seeing Shen Zhuo's grinning ghostly expression, felt amused in his heart, and let go of his hand.

"How dare I...Master Zhou." After Shen Zhuo finished speaking, Qiao Qian rolled his eyes.

"The ghost knows that you are actually the kind of little devil who insists on comparing others..."

Zhou Zhi looked at the muttering Shen Zhuo, and his smile grew stronger.

"It's not that you stick to me like a dog's skin plaster every day, and you can't get rid of it."

"Yes yes yes..." Shen Jue agreed perfunctorily.

Zhou Zhi looked up at the screen. The hosts had already stood on the stage and started preparing for the last ten-second countdown.He took Shen Jue's hand and looked towards the sky.

"In a while, the fireworks in the sky will illuminate the whole city." Looking at the scattered fireworks in the sky, he thought of the New Year's Eve when he was alone in the park.At the moment of entering the new century, even the empty snow field was colored by the fireworks all over the sky.

"Really?" Shen Zhuo also raised his head.

"Really." Zhou Zhi smiled.

The crowd is noisy, all excitedly preparing to start the final countdown, friends get together, and lovers hold hands.What they see most is the longing for the new century, and the new life is shining in their eyes.But in Zhou Zhi's eyes, there was only one person.

For the rest of the time, it was only him.

……

The crowd erupted into a countdown.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven, six..." Zhou Zhi looked at Shen Jiu who was counting down excitedly, his clear eyes were full of hope.So Zhou Zhi held his hand tightly, interlocking his fingers.Gently count down with him.

"five four three two one!"

Dots of sparks rise in the night sky, and pieces of colorfulness splash on the dark canvas one after another.

Light up the whole city.

Everyone looked up, and all the actors on the big screen began to sing together.Zhou Zhi pulled Shen Zhuo slightly, and hugged him tightly.Through the thick padded jackets, one could feel the hot emotion flowing in the hearts of the two of them. Zhou Zhi patted Shen Zhuo's back lightly, and whispered into his ears.

"Happy New Year."

"Happy New Year." Shen Zhuo smiled.

At this moment, he is not in a corner of the park,

But close at hand.
