Chapter 283 The moon represents my heart

weekend.

As we step into Nanjing in December, the coolness quietly spreads.

Lin Yuan made an appointment with Chang Xingyu to meet early in the morning.

There is a small bookstore next to Xuanwu Lake with a few tables and chairs scattered inside. Every autumn and winter, Lin Yuan would bring Chang Xingyu here.

In name, Chang Xingyu was tutoring Lin Yuan who was absent from class, but in reality, it was Lin Yuan who was taking the initiative to help Chang Xingyu sort out the key points and consolidate the knowledge.

After all, with Lin Yuan's ability, he has already mastered all the knowledge in books. Even if he takes the college entrance examination now, it will be easy for him to get the top score.

But he didn't think about skipping a grade. After all, he was still at his age and didn't have room to maneuver in many things. He could neither start a company nor have physical intimacy.

Going to college now is just like moving from one classroom to another, more spacious classroom.

When he came to this world, what fascinated him most were, of course, those lively and vivid women with different personalities.

Compared to rushing off to university, wouldn’t it be nice to accompany Chang Xingyu every day and spend more time with her?

When Chang Xingyu hurried to the bookstore with brisk steps, Lin Yuan was standing at the door waiting for her with a canvas bag on his back. When he saw her coming, he smiled and waved.

"Why don't you go in first?" Chang Xingyu asked in a clear voice, breathing slightly.

She walked quickly towards me, with a beautiful blush on her face, her skin showing a delicate luster, her eyes dark and bright, and her lips like petals, making people want to pick them.

Lin Yuan raised his chin towards the lake and chuckled, saying, "I've learned too much knowledge these days. I'm almost tired of it. Now we all need to combine work with rest. Let's go for a walk over there."

"Okay." Chang Xingyu naturally agreed and walked side by side with him.

Anyway, there is still a lot of time today.

The weather was still cold, but fortunately the sun came out and cast a warm light.

Although it is early winter, tourists are still walking in groups of three or four along the lakeside.

A cold wind blew by, and the lake became as calm as a huge silver mirror.

Most of the trees by the lake have lost their leaves, leaving only bare branches swaying in the cold wind, exuding a sense of loneliness.

The two walked to a quiet corner. Lin Yuan suddenly stopped, approached mysteriously, and said in a low voice:
"I'll tell you a secret that I've never told anyone else."

"What?" Chang Xingyu looked up at him with a puzzled look.

"That's it..." Lin Yuan stood on her left side. His thumb and index finger climbed up Chang Xingyu's shoulder peak and measured it one by one until he reached Chang Xingyu's collarbone. "The distance from here to here is actually the same as..."

His fingers moved to Chang Xingyu's right clavicle and measured again, stopping at Chang Xingyu's right shoulder. "The distance from here to here is the same."

Chang Xingyu was stunned. What kind of secret is this? Isn’t it the same for everyone?

But then she reacted and Lin Yuan's other three fingers gently touched her shoulders.

Chang Xingyu's cheeks instantly turned red, like a ripe maple leaf. Before she could say anything, Lin Yuan's hand had already loosened.

Actually, it only took a few seconds.

"You! You lied to me again." Her almond-shaped eyes widened and she stomped her feet in reproach.

Lin Yuan added: "I have another secret, and this time it's real."

Chang Xingyu said shyly: "I will never believe your secrets again."

Lin Yuan smiled, thinking that the girl's shy look was extremely cute.

He gently pushed her slender back, half coaxing and half pushing her forward, "There's an ice skating rink in the southwest corner of Liangzhou, let's go take a look."

Chang Xingyu's voice was timid, revealing obvious retreat: "I have never played it..."

"I'm here with you."

Lin Yuan took her towards the skating rink without saying anything.

This kind of place is meant for those who know how to skate and those who don't. It's most fun when one knows how to play and the other doesn't.

The two walked into the skating rink side by side. The rink was crowded with people.

Lin Yuan took out 40 cents to buy two tickets, then took Chang Xingyu to the shoe rental shop and rented two pairs of roller skates with the tickets.

Chang Xingyu held the laces of his skates, still a little hesitant.

Lin Yuan shook her wrist and encouraged her, "You won't fall. I'm here to protect you. Look, aren't these people having fun?"

Chang Xingyu looked into the rink. Some people were running at lightning speed on the ice with their clothes fluttering, while others were holding the railings and moving slowly, but everyone seemed to be smiling happily.

Only then did Chang Xingyu finally bend down and put on his skates.

As soon as the rollers on the soles of her shoes touched the ice, her knees became weak uncontrollably. She was afraid that she would slip, and she was able to stand up only with the help of Lin Yuan holding her arm.

She was like a clumsy baby bird and could only hold on to Lin Yuan and slowly move forward.

Looking at Lin Yuan beside him walking on the ice as if it were flat ground, Chang Xingyu was full of curiosity: "How come you are so good at skating?"

"I came here with the archery team last time. Come, I'll take you for a few laps."

Lin Yuan held her wrist firmly, exerted force with his feet, and the two of them paddled lightly for a long distance.

Lin Yuan took her for a few laps on the skating rink. The wind blew past her ears. Chang Xingyu felt the thrill of racing and couldn't help laughing out loud.

But when Lin Yuan let go of her hand, she still didn't dare to skate quickly.

Lin Yuan was only half a meter away from her, and she moved forward to grab Lin Yuan's arm.

"Please help me!" The girl's voice was crisp and coquettish.

"Try it, you can do it." Lin Yuan stepped back half a step, thinking of letting her try it herself.

Chang Xingyu’s sweetness and cuteness.

It is particularly eye-catching in the busy ice skating rink.

Chang Xingyu finally plucked up the courage and tried to take bigger steps to get closer to Lin Yuan. At this moment, a man with a buzz cut suddenly slipped in front of him.

"Little sister, if he doesn't want to teach you, I can teach you."

The man with a crew cut had a malicious smile on his face and spoke in a greasy and frivolous tone.

Chang Xingyu was so scared that his shoulders shrank and his relaxed brows were tightly furrowed.

Lin Yuan took a step forward, protecting Chang Xingyu behind him, and stared at the man with a buzz cut with displeasure: "Get lost."

The crew-haired man was shocked by Lin Yuan's sharp eyes, but then he came to his senses and asked:

"You want me to get out?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a few more people gathered around him.

The crew-haired man crossed his arms over his chest, with a provocative smile on his face, and spoke slowly: "I didn't hear you clearly, please say it again."

Chang Xingyu was a little worried. He reached out and gently pulled the corner of Lin Yuan's clothes, thinking that it was better to have less trouble than more.

"It's okay, just stand back." Lin Yuan comforted Chang Xingyu softly. He pulled Chang Xingyu's scarf up, revealing only a pair of watery eyes.

Lin Yuan didn't really want to brag. If he didn't have the real ability, he would have taken Chang Xingyu and escaped long ago.

But now, let alone fighting, it would be easy for him to kill these people without anyone noticing.

You want me to avoid him?
Lin Yuan glanced at the people in front of him with a cold gaze and sneered, "You are just a bunch of scumbags. I'm afraid the number of words you know is not as many as my age. What if I say it ten more times?"

Now, the entire skating rink became quiet and everyone's attention was focused here.

Being mocked by Lin Yuan, the man with short hair blushed. He did drop out of school a long time ago, but it was impossible for him to only know a dozen words. He grabbed Lin Yuan by the collar and said, "Do you want to die?"

After saying this, the slap was about to come towards his face with the sound of the wind.

Several other people also surrounded Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan grabbed the opponent's hand with his backhand as fast as lightning, and his tiger's mouth accurately gripped the knuckles. While pressing down hard with his palm, his thumb suddenly turned upwards.

"Ah! It hurts! Come on, you guys."

The man with a crew cut screamed, knelt on one knee, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and urged.

Without waiting for others to react, Lin Yuan directly dislocated his arm. Lin Yuan raised his leg and kicked him on the shoulder, kicking him far away.

Then Lin Yuan ducked to avoid the fist coming from the right and smashed his elbow into the opponent's ribs.

He then pulled the man on his left by the shoulder and rammed his knee hard into his lower abdomen.

The last person just rushed over and saw the unfortunate end of his companion. He wanted to escape, but it was too late. Lin Yuan kicked the last person's knee again, and the whole person fell heavily on the ice with a dull sound.

In just a few tens of seconds, four thugs fell on the ice rink and groaned, while Lin Yuan just patted his sleeves without any breath disorder.

Lin Yuan came to the man with the crew cut and stepped on the back of his hand with his skates. Blood immediately flowed out and he said coldly, "Apologize."

"Brother, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I was a bad mouth." The man with a crew cut was in so much pain that he broke out in cold sweats and had no choice but to give in.

It is said that a good man never suffers a loss in front of him.

"All of you, get out of here and don't disturb everyone's fun."

Lin Yuan then looked around again. Apart from Chang Xingyu, there was a large empty space around him. The rest of the people were looking at him in silence.

Lin Yuan picked a thin boy in the corner and waved at him.

The young man looked around and walked over nervously.

Lin Yuan took out a five-dollar bill from his pocket and stuffed it into his pocket, whispering:
"Please do me a favor and go to the nearby police station. Tell them that an Asian Games champion who just returned home was bullied by some hooligans at this skating rink. I'll give you another five dollars when you come back."

……

Several policemen hurried to the skating rink.

I saw many citizens in the venue still skating freely, but outside the venue, there were a few men sitting and groaning constantly.

Lin Yuan and Chang Xingyu had already changed back to their original shoes.

After Lin Yuan’s comfort, Chang Xingyu is no longer afraid.

The police quickly asked: "Which one of you is the Asian Games champion?"

You know, the Asian Games haven't ended yet.

The champion who won glory for the country returned to his hometown, but was harassed by thugs. How bad would the impact be if this news got out?

Several thugs looked at each other, not understanding what he meant. The man with the crew cut suddenly stiffened his neck, pointed at Lin Yuan, and shouted, "Comrade, he was the one who did it. He beat us all."

Originally they thought they had given up on today's incident, but they didn't expect Lin Yuan to refuse to let them go and wait until the police arrived.

Lin Yuan gave the thin boy five dollars, walked up to the policeman, and said calmly: "Comrade, I asked him to call the police."

One of the policemen asked, "Comrade, what's going on?"

"My friends and I came here to skate, and a few of them came over and wanted to tease my friends and even hit me, but they didn't hit me, and that's what happened. There are many witnesses at the scene, you can ask them." "Are you the Asian Games champion he mentioned?" The leading policeman looked at him and said, "I was wondering why you look familiar to me? Are you Lin Yuan from the archery team? I've seen you in the newspaper."

Lin Yuan nodded: "It's me. I didn't expect to encounter these things in the first week after returning. If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid I would have to swallow this loss in silence."

The leading policeman waved his hand, and the other two policemen asked the four men to stand up and began to question them, while the remaining two went to question the witnesses.

"I'd like to know some more details, is that convenient?"

"You ask."

……

The results of the investigation were not surprising; the witness testimonies were almost identical.

It was indeed these thugs who first harassed Lin Yuan verbally and then started physical combat. However, the four of them combined were no match for Lin Yuan and instead each of them was injured.

The leading policeman closed the record book and looked up and said, "Comrade Lin Yuan, I'll have to trouble you to go back to the bureau and make a detailed record."

"Okay, I'll ride over to your bureau in a bit."

Several policemen took the four thugs away.

Lin Yuan looked at Chang Xingyu beside him and said, "Let me take you home first. I still have to go to the bureau."

"I'll stay with you. I haven't tutored you yet. You can go back later today."

Chang Xingyu informed her family in advance that she would not be going home for lunch today. She planned to spend the whole day helping Lin Yuan with his lessons. After all, Lin Yuan had missed nearly a month's worth of classes.

Lin Yuan nodded and took Chang Xingyu to where the bicycles were parked.

The two men rode their bikes to the bureau and cooperated in taking the statements.

Lin Yuan's attack was very measured. Except for the man with a crew cut who had a dislocated arm that needed to be repositioned, the injuries of the other three thugs were not serious. They were in unbearable pain but not to the extent of minor injuries.

In short, these four people cannot escape detention and fines.

After staying in the police station for about two hours, Lin Yuan and Chang Xingyu finally walked out of the door. Only then did Lin Yuan gently put down Chang Xingyu's scarf.

Chang Xingyu's cheeks, which had been covered with the scarf for a long time, were slightly red, like a camellia soaked in morning dew.

The main thing is that Lin Yuan is at least a little famous, and it would be bad if this incident affected Chang Xingyu.

Even if word gets out that the Asian Games champion fought for his beloved, at least no one knows what Chang Xingyu looks like.

Lin Yuan took out a thermos cup from his canvas bag, unscrewed the lid and handed it over: "This is brown sugar ginger water, for warding off the cold. I almost forgot to give it to you. Don't worry, I haven't drunk it."

Chang Xingyu was indeed a little thirsty, so he reached out to take it.

Lin Yuan warned: "Drink slowly."

She took a small sip.

The sweetness is mixed with the scent of ginger, and the warmth goes down the throat straight into the stomach.

As soon as Chang Xingyu finished drinking, Lin Yuan reached out to take it and took a sip from where her lips left.

Chang Xingyu looked at him in surprise, his mouth open for a long time.

Lin Yuan licked his lips, his eyes fell on her lips, and asked curiously: "Did you put on lipstick? Why do you smell so good?"

Chang Xingyu pursed his lips, then raised his voice and asked, "How could you drink mine?"

"Student Chang Xingyu, this originally belonged to me. I just saw that you were thirsty, so I kindly let you drink a sip. How can you take over my place? But I'm not as stingy as you. If you want to drink it, I'll give it to you."

"You did it on purpose." Chang Xingyu was embarrassed and annoyed, and kicked Lin Yuan's shoes hard with a red face.

Lin Yuan suddenly stepped forward and said in a low voice: "If you kick me again next time, I will take off your shoes and socks and tickle the soles of your feet."

Chang Xingyu took a small step back in alertness, his face redder than the sunset.

Girls' feet are so private.

How can you do that kind of thing?

In her opinion, this was even more intimate than holding hands and hugging.

"Or..." Lin Yuan paused, "I can consider not taking off your white socks."

Chang Xingyu shook his body in dissatisfaction and said coquettishly, "Don't say that."

She turned her face away and urged, "Let's go back and review our lessons."

Lin Yuan rode his bike with Chang Xingyu. Since it was already noon, they had a simple meal at a street shop and then returned to the bookstore they often visited.

In the bookstore, Lin Yuan accompanied Chang Xingyu to review and consolidate his lessons.

Chang Xingyu's academic performance has always been very stable. In last month's midterm exam, she ranked among the top ten in her grade.

After all, with Lin Yuan helping with tutoring, it’s impossible for his studies to be poor.

Before I knew it, the night was getting darker.

Lin Yuan rode his bike and took her to the snack street again, and the two of them ate sweet red bean dumplings and golden and crispy pot stickers.

After filling his stomach, Lin Yuan prepared to send Chang Xingyu home.

Chang Xingyu sat quietly in the back seat of Lin Yuan, gently twisting the corner of Lin Yuan's clothes.

Lin Yuan deliberately slowed down the car, and Chang Xingyu did not urge him. It was not until they arrived at the alley near Chang Xingyu's home that Lin Yuan pressed the brakes and Chang Xingyu's car, with the soft force of the girl's body temperature, hit Lin Yuan's back.

Chang Xingyu exclaimed softly.

Lin Yuan turned to look at her, "Did I scare you at the skating rink today?"

"I was afraid at the beginning, but later I wasn't afraid anymore." Chang Xingyu jumped out of the car swiftly and came in front of Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan felt a little regretful: "It's a pity that I didn't have time to skate with you for a few more laps, and you didn't have enough fun."

Chang Xingyu shook his head gently: "It's okay, I just wanted to read a book with you."

"How about I sing you a song by Teresa Teresa to make amends?"

Lin Yuan got out of the car and pushed it up.

Chang Xingyu bit his lip and said, "But the school forbids us to listen to her songs, saying they are decadent."

"Then do you want to listen?" Lin Yuan moved closer and looked at her with a smile on his lips.

Chang Xingyu quickly glanced around and nodded slightly after confirming that no one noticed them.

She had long been curious about Teresa Teresa's songs, and she wanted to hear Lin Yuan's singing even more.

you ask me how much i love you
How much do I love you
My love is true

My love is true

the moon represents my heart

……

Lin Yuan's singing voice was ethereal and clear, like moonlight penetrating through the clouds, making her intoxicated unconsciously.

Chang Xingyu felt his heartbeat quicken involuntarily with the melody, and his cheeks felt slightly hot.

The singing stopped abruptly, and Lin Yuan asked with a smile: "How was my singing?"

"It sounds good."

"I'll write a song myself later and sing it to you then."

Chang Xingyu responded: "I'm going back."

"See you tomorrow." Lin Yuan waved at her.

"See you tomorrow."

Chang Xingyu stood with his hands behind his back and walked so briskly that he seemed like he was about to fly.

Before entering the door, she looked up at the night sky. A half-moon hung between the buildings, and the bright moonlight fell right on her cheek.

Chang Xingyu knocked on the door and a young woman opened it.

This is his father's new wife, and also his stepmother.

"Auntie Lan, isn't my dad back yet?"

"Yeah, have you eaten yet?"

"I've eaten. I'm going back to the house."

……

When Lin Yuan returned home, it was already past seven o'clock.

In the courtyard, a group of children were watching "Journey to the West" in front of the TV with great interest, not caring at all about the occasional cool breeze blowing through.

Wu Xiulan doesn't care about the electricity bills.

Anyway, their family has no shortage of money now.

The neighbors were all very friendly to their family, and even flattered them. There was nothing wrong with taking out the TV for everyone to enjoy.

Therefore, even if Lin Yuan and Sanli were not at home, the TV would still be placed in the yard as usual.

However, after a while, when the weather gets really cold, the TV can no longer be placed outside.

On the one hand, the TV is too heavy to bear, and it is also easy for adults and children to catch a cold when sitting in the yard watching it.

Qiao Sanli was sitting next to Simei. When she heard the familiar footsteps, she quickly turned around. After seeing Lin Yuan, she walked towards him with a smile.

He took a tooth out of his pocket and gave it to him.

"Brother, I lost my tooth!"

"The one above or the one below?"

"Down there."

"I'll throw it on the roof for you, and you'll grow a new tooth in a few days."

Lin Yuan threw Qiao Sanli's fallen tooth onto the roof.

He thought to himself that he would have to spend more time with Sanli next time.

He hasn't been hanging out with Sanli much lately.

Moreover, this girl would not go to bed until I came back every day.
