Nanxi’s fingertips trembled as she held her phone, feeling completely bewildered, when suddenly the video flashed by a man’s handsome chin, causing her to pause for a moment as the man began speaking again.
He said, "Nanxi, I’m a bit embarrassed, this is my first time using a DV camera, and I might not be very professional, so if I don’t capture you well in the future, please don’t be upset!"
He went "um," and said, "But, I think you might still get angry, because I’m going to secretly film you! Sorry, Nanxi, the current me feels somewhat cold inside, while you’re so sunny and warm, and yet so young, I don’t dare, I don’t dare disturb you!"
"So Nanxi, if in the future you see these videos and want to be angry with me, I’m willing to endure it. But promise me, whatever punishment you want to give, I have no objections, but you must never ignore me, hate me, most importantly, you can’t leave me!"
"Hmm? You’re wondering why I’m so sure you’ll be with me in the future? Of course I’m sure, because in the future, there won’t be another man who understands you, protects you, and loves you more than I do! I’m completely confident about my looks, and I’m also completely confident about my ability to make you happy. But right now, I just need some time to adjust myself... Wait for me, Nanxi, it won’t be long!"
"The current time is five twenty-six in the afternoon, and your school lets out at five in the afternoon. It takes between twenty-five minutes to half an hour to get home, assuming you’re not hanging out with your classmates! Since you’re not home yet, I’m hoping you won’t go shopping today. I want to see you earlier, Nanxi, come back, I’m waiting for you!" For original chapters go to novel⁂fire.net
The date of this video is June 12, 2006!
On that day, Nanxi has a bit of a memory, that afternoon, they had a physical education class, and during class, her desk mate fainted due to anemia, and it was she who helped her, along with a boy, to the infirmary, where she registered the class information, remembering the date and the incident of that day!
After school, she was worried her desk mate might faint on the way again, so she escorted her all the way home, then took the bus back home; her desk mate’s route was opposite to her home’s route, so by the time she got home, it was already very late!
So, was Lu Yinchu waiting for her?
Alone on that solitary balcony, how long did he wait? How many cigarettes did he smoke? How long did he gaze in the direction she was returning from?
Thinking of this, Nanxi felt a heat in her eyes, her heart aching with unexpressed words!
Nanxi clicked open another video, this time the picture was a little shaky, indicating the filming man was walking, the ground very wet, as if it had just rained.
The sound of footsteps mixed with the wind and rain in the video, then the camera suddenly pointed towards the cloudy sky, and afterwards, focused on a blue umbrella at least twenty meters away!
Nanxi was taken aback because the person holding the umbrella was herself!
Nanxi’s memory was a bit blurry, not knowing when this was, or what she was preparing to do, but she remembered the umbrella, which she had found by the roadside, very sturdy, used for a whole year, deeply impressed!
Suddenly, she ahead stopped walking, and the Lu Yinchu behind also halted, partly covering the lens with his umbrella... Could it be that she turned around at that time?
No memory, but Nanxi was indeed a cautious person, as she always felt she was too naive, too trusting of others, too believing there were only good people in the world, which is why she loved writing fairy tales as a child!
After a while, the picture again included her figure, ahead was a bus stop, she walked over, closed her umbrella, and began waiting for the bus!
The picture shook once more, the sound of a door closing came, seemingly Lu Yinchu had boarded the bus.
Then he said, "Not the first time filming, but every time I see you, my heart gets nervous, so this segment might not be well filmed! Also, just scared myself a moment ago, suddenly thinking, if you realized you were being stalked by a middle-aged guy, how would you feel? You definitely wouldn’t like it! Actually Nanxi, I’m only twenty-four, a very young and handsome uncle! You’ll like me because many women like me..." He paused and asked, "Nanxi, I really like you, can you try to like me a bit?"
Clicked open another video again: In the picture, Nanxi was with several classmates, Lu Yinchu followed quite closely, but the street was crowded, Nanxi and the others didn’t notice!
