Can not doing what one wants be called rebirth?

Chapter 360 372. Look up at the sky
"Hey, why should I go with you?"

"You're distracted again! Well, since you're driving, I won't bother with you. I said you'll accompany me to look at the house."

The passenger seat's voice was still clear and pleasant. The girl was extremely relaxed, leaning back in the leather seat, with her legs crossed, one high and one low, revealing her alluring white skin under her plaid skirt.

"I'm busy lately, so I may not have much time."

Lu Jincheng shook his head meaningfully.

"Oh."

Zhou Si Ning responded reluctantly and refused to look at him out of spite.

A few seconds later, she seemed to remember something and muttered, "You just said you'd go shopping with me when you're free. Liar."

"Of course there's no problem with shopping."

"No, then why can't we look at houses?"

"Can that be the same?"

The man said with his chest puffed out, looking both righteous and confident.

"Shopping can satisfy both your vision and your taste buds. Watching babies change into beautiful clothes is a visual impact, while feeding them delicious food, desserts, and milk tea and coffee is a feast for the eyes!"

"House hunting is too boring, I won't go."

"What kind of stupid logic is this!"

Zhou Si Ning curled her lips and immediately retorted: "Who said it's useless to look at houses!"

"Food, clothing, shelter and transportation. If you have a place to live, it will be convenient for you in the future."

"What's convenient for me?"

Lu Jincheng held back his laughter, raised his eyebrows and said mischievously.

"You're asking even though you already know the answer. You can go if you want. I don't talk to people who act stupid."

The brown-haired girl snorted coldly and crossed her arms, only to find that the Range Rover had been driving for most of the day and was heading towards a place that was completely unfamiliar to her.

Zhou Sining could naturally see it as she had been in Jiangcheng for more than half a year.

This was obviously not the way back to school, nor did it look like a bustling business district that she was familiar with.

"Where are we going?"

"Since you want to move out so badly, I'll take you to see a house."

"Don't worry, I still want to go back to the dormitory to put my luggage. Besides, I haven't eaten yet. I'm so hungry~"

Zhou Si Ning muttered to herself while twisting her fingers, feeling very happy.

My boyfriend is just hard on the outside but soft on the inside.

Lu Jincheng loves himself so much that he never misses a role that he should play.

But what she never expected was that as they drove past tall buildings and busy traffic, past traffic lights and overpasses, the buildings outside the window became more and more unfamiliar, and their arrangement became disorganized.

Until the Land Rover Range Rover turned a corner and drove into a residential area.

"."

Zhou Si Ning rubbed her eyes. She was just looking down at her phone and couldn't see the name of the community on the arch.

But she was born into a wealthy family after all, and she could figure out one thing just by looking at the architectural style and landscaping around her.

Living here is definitely not cheap.

"What's going on, Mr. Lu? Has your life improved?"

It was not until Lu Jincheng opened the garage door of the villa as if he was coming home, parked the car, opened the trunk with a smile and took out the luggage that Zhou Sining asked the question.

"It's just a small fight. How much is a house in Jiangcheng? It's not worth mentioning."

The man opened the door with a smile, bent down, made a welcoming gesture, and made way.

"Wow you can!"

This was Zhou Sining's first visit to Donghu Tianyue Villa.

She changed her shoes without hesitation, threw her bag on the sofa, and walked around the room naturally.

Compared with the several golden flowers of Dianjin Media, the little princess's reaction was much calmer.

She looked at it and appreciated it, but she did not have the surprised expression that an ordinary girl would have when she first arrived.

"A Sony TV of this size, my goodness, you really are willing to spend money. When I was browsing Weibo during the Chinese New Year, I happened to see Principal Wang also posted a message, and in the comments section he said that his TV cost nearly half a million!"

"There's even a piano. Can you play it? Fake art."

"No. Is such a big bathtub going to be used to keep whales?"

Zhou Si Ning looked here and there, pointing out the situation everywhere, and finally walked up the stairs to the roof.

"Hey!"

From top to bottom, a soft and sticky voice came from above the man's head.

"what?"

"Why don't you come up~ This rooftop is nice, I like it!"

In the direction of the third floor of the stairs, a small head appeared in the air.

Zhou Si Ning leaned on the handrail and waved to the man below, motioning him to come over and see the scenery.

"When did you buy the house? I don't even know."

In a villa with huge space, there are many areas for leisure and gatherings.

However, it is relatively difficult to find a rooftop with the same decoration style.

A man and a woman were now sitting side by side in the middle of the large rooftop terrace.

This place is more like a personal secret garden and an imaginative rooftop.

Several distinctive reliefs fill the undecorated space outside the house, and a few retro-style tables and chairs and the clean and neat pure white tone greatly enhance the beauty of the space.

"Not long, I also want to give you a surprise."

"What a surprise."

Zhou Sining didn't understand what the man meant. She shrugged, leaned back in her chair, and looked up at the clear blue sky.

"But sitting on this rooftop does make people happy." She took a deep breath, and the slight coolness refreshed her heart.

The winter sun was not strong, and the light shone faintly around the girl's face, making her look like a red glow in the sky.

"When I was a kid, I read in a book that when people are happy, they should go to the place closest to the sky."

"Should we stand up then?"

Only on each other's rooftops, their views intersect, creating infinite romance and beauty.

Of course Lu Jincheng would not miss this moment.

Regardless of whether the book was made up or had basis in fact, he stood up and stretched out his hand to Zhou Si Ning seriously.

Fingers intertwined.

He and she stood side by side, leaning on the edge of the rooftop railing, closest to the blue sky.

"Actually, besides nightmares, I also had many happy dreams."

The breeze kissed the girl's cheek, her brown hair grew into tails, and her palms were pressed together.

She looked into the distance and murmured.

"for example?"

"For example, I dreamed many times that I went to the rooftop of Nanhu Industrial Park with you and looked at the sky."

Zhou Si Ning turned her head slightly and smiled at the man.

"You like looking at the sky so much?"

"Yes."

She clenched her fingers together, and dimples appeared at the corners of her mouth and rotated outwards.

“When I’m happy, I want to be closer to the sky. When I’m in pain, I feel like the world around me is so crowded that it’s about to explode, so I have to go see something wide and big.”

“When I traveled to Europe, I made a point to go to the Twin Towers in Paris.”

"It's 320 meters high. Although it's enough to meet my basic needs, I only have one goal: to run to the highest point and look at the sky."

Zhou Si Ning let go of the man's left hand, took a step back, picked up the phone from the table, and continued.

"Well, there happened to be an exhibition going on that day, and I took dozens of photos of stories very close to the sky."

"The background color is a 50-level color gradient of the sky's color at different times of the day. It is said that this is a color that will never appear again once in a lifetime."

"Why didn't you share it with me then?"

Lu Jincheng blinked, moved closer to Zhou Sining and asked curiously.

"Because there is a time difference with China."

"Baby, next time you tell a lie, can you be a little more sincere?"

The man exposed Zhou Si Ning in a second.

"Well, actually, because she was also taking photos on the top of the tower, and it seemed like she would send them to you as well, I suddenly felt a little angry."

“So, I wrote down my feelings at that time.”

Zhou Si Ning shook her phone, a satisfied smile appearing in her starry eyes.

"This is a unique picture and text, you might like it more."

She unlocked her phone, swiped a few times, and moved the screen in front of Lu Jincheng.

There are photos of different scenery, and next to them are the girl’s inner thoughts.

——"It feels like it's floating in the sky!"

She wrote about happiness for the first time.

——Standing on a high place, it seems that you can reach out and touch the clouds.

——The sky is where you face yourself.

——I like to stand on high places.

——The wind feels so good! Although it can be windy from time to time.

——I want to share it with him, I want to stand here with the one I love deeply.

——The sunset is so beautiful, and you can clearly see the arrival of night.

——The sky where people from all over the world can meet and feel the same moment for everyone.

“The sky is where you face yourself.”

As Lu Jincheng was flipping through the book, he was touched by this sentence and couldn't help but read it again.

"Yes, I have been to the highest point many times, and there are different people every time."

Zhou Si Ning looked up at the sky, held her head high and stretched her arms.

"People happily taking photos, people worried and silent, people lining up to buy beer, people in tears, people with shattered confidence, people whose lives are stagnant in all aspects, people who want to move forward but can't."

"It seems like life always involves things that are hard to understand, but they sound simple."

"I think the next time such a moment comes, we might as well do something futile together and watch the weather."

"Look at the sky?"

"Yes."

The girl nodded.

"There is only one thing to do under the sky, and that is to wait."

“I don’t know what I’m waiting for, but I’m waiting.”

“Waiting for the sun to set, for the sky to darken, for the wind to get colder, for the song to play on repeat, for the phone to run out of battery, for you to think that your time with the sky is almost over for the day, and for you to get up and leave on your own accord.”

“When I face the sky, I can’t seem to figure out anything, but at least I can admit a lot of things.”

"For example, life still hasn't made any progress. I've just been blowing in the cold wind for a long time in vain. Next, I have to return to reality, face people I don't want to see, and accept things I don't want to accept."

"But at that moment, the sky could fit in my eyes."
