"Hi, I'm Ye Xiaofan. Hello, Liu Siyan, I hope you will like the video that follows..."
Two years ago, Xiaofan rode his bicycle, borrowed a VCR camcorder from a classmate, and spent a week's allowance on a mory card, heading straight for Phoenix Mountain.
Those were unforgettable youthful days. At eighteen, boys are still quite naive, thinking that to win a girl's heart, one just needs to do sothing that touches her. So, late at night, he set off for Phoenix Mountain on his bike.
Let state here: if a girl has no feelings for you, no amount of effort will change that. But, ironically, Liu Siyan at that ti was also extrely interested in Xiaofan.
"Hey, ng Ying, what are you looking at? Co help tidy up this table, more custors are coming soon."
"Hmm, oh."
Back then, helping her mom with the roadside stall, Chen ngying did indeed see Ye Xiaofan biking towards Phoenix Mountain. She had heard rumors that he was going there alone to capture the beautiful teor shower for Liu Siyan.
With a sigh in her heart, that was his pursuit, and she silently wished him success.
"It's now 10:36 PM, I've reached the top of Phoenix Mountain, and the air is great. Hmm, the teor shower should arrive soon..."
"Oh dear, does that sound too serious? Maybe I should phrase it differently?"
Xiaofan conflictedly re-recorded these lines, making sure everything was perfect before waiting quietly for the teor shower.
Lying on the hillside, he began to imagine Liu Siyan's expression upon seeing the little surprise he had ticulously prepared. Oh, how wonderful it would be if he could be next to her when she sees it.
The teors ca, not many, just sporadically, but Xiaofan knew this was the prelude to the teor shower.
"Look, the teors are coming, and in no more than twenty minutes, the beautiful scene will unfold before your eyes."
On the quiet mountain away from the city, the teor shower was indeed breathtakingly beautiful. The only pity was that it would have been perfect if she were there with him.
After filming, Xiaofan packed up the equipnt, removed the mory card, and placed it in his school uniform pocket.
However, midway down the mountain, he encountered an injured 'female ghost'.
To help her with her injuries, Xiaofan ran back and forth, eventually taking off his school uniform to strap her to his back, carrying her down the mountain, then biking them back into H City.
And the mory card, left behind amidst all that, disappeared forever in the mountains... From then on, because of this woman, he embarked on a different life path.
What beca of the teor shower footage Xiaofan took on Phoenix Mountain? If he hadn't been careless that year, if he had managed to give that mory card to Liu Siyan, would there be so many stories now?
There are never any 'ifs' in life...
"Wow, i'Er sure is rich. She gave you this house, and there's a little manor over there too. I just don't get it, why is she so taken with you?"
Standing before the house she bought separately, Liu Siyan sighed softly.
"Then why did you fall for ?" Xiaofan smiled lightly, feeling a bit bold with his question.
Hearing this, Liu Siyan shyly clung to Xiaofan's arm, pouting: "It's different for us; we've known each other for a long ti, right? I know what kind of person you are, which is why I like you. But i'Er has only known you for how long?"
"Well, this house was when I was competing, and she helped win over ten million from the outside, so I asked her to help buy it." Xiaofan explained as he opened the door.
"Over ten million? You must be joking. In this area, houses are at least thirty million. You dream of buying it for just a million."
"Thirty million?" At her words, Xiaofan frowned at Liu Siyan.
He wasn't doubting Siyan's words, but he suddenly understood. Although he had said sothing, i'Er had picked the best location for him and didn't care about the so-called price.
In a drawer, he found his wallet from back then, searched its folds, and sure enough, found the mory card from those days.
"Is this it?"
"Yeah. Just a mont."
With that, Xiaofan located a mobile USB drive and inserted the mory card. He opened his laptop and inserted the USB drive.
"You watch first, I'll get you a glass of red wine..." Seeing the laptop start to run, Xiaofan suddenly stepped out again.
"Hey, aren't you watching too?"
"I'll be right back."
"Are you embarrassed?" Liu Siyan suddenly grinned.
"Embarrassed? , embarrassed? No way..."
Alright, Xiaofan did feel a bit shy, considering he had recorded a bunch of cheesy, childish lines back then. Now, playing them again in front of him, he really felt embarrassed. He decided to co back with the wine once Liu Siyan finished watching the earlier part and reached the teor shower scene.
What's gone can never be retrieved, fortunately, so beauty can be preserved.
"Xiaofan... Xiaofan, co quickly..."
"Huh? What's wrong?" Hearing Liu Siyan calling from the room, Xiaofan walked in with two wine glasses and a bottle of red wine.
"What do you have on this mory card? I can't find any video software, and the only sizable folder is about HLY007. What is this HLY007?"
"What? What did you just say?"
"HLY007."
Placing down the wine and glasses, Xiaofan imdiately sat down in front of the computer with a look of surprise, quickly moving the mouse to the folder and double-clicking to open it. Sure enough, there was the HLY007 data.
"Siyan..."
"Hmm?"
"I'm sorry..."
"What, why are you suddenly apologizing to ?"
Turning around, Xiaofan gazed deeply at Liu Siyan: "I'm afraid the teor shower footage truly is lost."
"Huh? Really lost? Then what's this stuff?"
"These are important data that Zuimo brought back from Red Butterfly. Could you please wait on the side for a mont?"
"Oh, okay..."
Am I an idiot? Am I a fool? When the mory card was lost back then, I assud Zuimo had picked it up, so upon seeing the card with her, I thought it was the teor shower footage.
These past years, I never thought sothing might be amiss.
Zuimo had said the mory card was with her before she lost her mory, and after regaining it, it was missing. That ans the card was lost during our ti living together, within my gap in mory.
Why, why didn't I realize sooner it was this mory card? Damn it...
