Chapter 12
You Are So Beautiful
The university town was located in the north of the Capital planet, except the severely cold winter, the dawn would be very early every morning for the most of the time every year, this also let people to feel difficult to adapt. At six o’clock of the early morning, Charming woke up from the sleep, put on that never away from the body black frame glasses gropingly, stretched her body, looked at that beautiful Rose river outside of the window, those seemed very clear in the autumn river water and the light yellow woods, then she fell into meditation.
Although her person had already returned to the university, but her heart was still over S2 there, she served for the senator Medellin, had her own tasks and responsibilities-- Last year when she came back to the Pear Garden university, the most important task was to get close to that mysterious, code name prince young man, and attempted to establish a certain kind of good relationship between the senator Medellin and the head of the seven big families, the Tai family. The throughout the whole federation wireless network, let her could receive the instructions of the senator aspect at any time. But she had already come back to the Pear Garden university for more than half a year, the black frame glasses never had any move, the peaceful life almost let her to forget her true identity.
Until the day before yesterday, there some words appeared on the black frame glasses, the senator aspect informed her, they had already confirmed that the target was studying in the Pear Garden university, just couldn’t check out the specific living place, but according to the intelligence, the target was bound to attend the dancing party of the bi-moons festival next week. Senator Medellin gave her the direct command pure-heartedly through his subordinates, she had to think of a way to get close to “prince” in the dancing party, got the jump on other forces, created some kind of benign atmosphere.
The autumn scene outside of the window was that clear and beautiful, the mood of Charming was that chilly, the information about that prince was not that meticulous, but the most emphasis of it, had already pointed the direction for her, a young man who could tolerate the temperament of the miss of the Chad family, a young man who was disciplined very strictly from a child, there must be the rebellious impulse, and also had the extreme curiousness for love that kind of thing.
Love? Then where is my love? Charming was just a not up to twenty years old young girl, she also dreamed about her future for countless times, the love belonged to her own. But… The autumn scene outside of the window became a face gradually, that always narrowed the eyes, full of sincere and kind face. Charming had a smile self-mockery, Sheilor that guy was too honest.
Scholar Bruce, the staunch supporter of the George Colin doctrine and the recognized best solution reader of the society, he thought that love in this world was just like the fist, also divided by the size. The love of man and woman, the love of the family were all very good. But all of these still couldn’t be compared with that kind of to the whole human race, to the federation deepest and longest love, that was the great big love.
In order to have the big love to the society, then she must sacrifice her own small love. Charming stood in front of the window, clenched her fist little by little, the world she saw through the window, always was different from the usual. Maybe even more real, maybe even more false, Charming seemed to see those in the mountains insisted to confront the federation, just to seek for a more fair future comrades-in-arms. She seemed to see those at the bottom end of the society kept struggling, wasted their whole life citizens. She also seemed to see those mastered most of the power, manipulated the election shamelessly politicians, and the plutocrats and the families behind those politicians.
There were too many unfairness in this world, getting in touch with that applied unfairness to this world Tai family, was only a kind of means. The pure heart of Charming was floating in the pure sky, she was willing to sacrifice her everything for eliminating the unfairness of this world, in the lead of senator Medellin, including… That still didn’t have time at all to hatch love.
But before that still didn’t have time to start love to become the ash, she should have some time to enjoy it to her heart’s content in the end, to give some kind of warmhearted response to the other party that young man, to leave a section of good memory, although the ending of this memory bounded to make people sad. Charming loosened her fist gradually, took off that put on her nose bridge black frame glasses resolutely, put it into the metal drawer which had the combination lock on, and then spread out her black hair, began to dress up herself carefully.
Early morning at the backdoor of the Pear Garden university, in the already become cold autumn wind, Sheilor looked at this wearing sky blue skirt with shoulder-straps girl in front of him, somewhat couldn’t believe in his own eyes. His surprise not come from that Charming would wear so little in such a cold weather unexpectedly, but he found out for the first time, after all, Charming… Could be so beautiful!
No matter on the bus of the airport, or later on by the side of dining table in the cafeteria, or on the track of the athletic field, the Charming who Sheilor saw was always wearing a pair of black frame glasses on the nose bridge, the other students probably also were the same, it seemed like that nobody knew what Charming would look like without the glasses.
The wearing glasses Charming was gentle, quiet and pure. But at this moment the took of glasses Charming seemed to change to another person, the bright eyes had the attractive smile in, the eyes without the filter by the glasses were very moving, just like they could talk. The didn’t have any makeup on face, the picturesque eyebrows and lashes, the cute lips. The sky blue skirt with shoulder-straps, showed her that slender neck and small part of the skin on the chest out, all of these sent out a strand of youth breath.
Very threatening, threatening to make people enchanted.
“Look good?” Charming slanted her head slightly, blinked her eyes lovely, stared at Sheilor that somewhat embarrassed face, had a pull on the bottom skirt of her that sky blue skirt wittily.
Very obviously, Charming was ready to give herself one wild day for the last freedom, ready to give that hidden but not came out yet love a relative good ending. The opened her heart Charming, no longer the same as what she was in past those days, but seemed a lot more lovely and bright, and… Much cuter, even more like that eaten doggy biscuit by others and got hidden bitterness and anger girl.
Sheilor also felt that Charming had the mood today no the same as usual, but this kind of unusual was what he liked. In order to cover up the previous silence and embarrassment, he coughed a couple times, stepped forward, said very sincerely, “Very beautiful.”
What he said was very beautiful, but Sheilor’s hands seemed not following the order to take over that short wind coat in Charming’s elbow, put it on her body mechanically, said, “It’s cold, wear a little bit more.” This had nothing to do with the weather, purely was the youth’s nature of mind doing the mischief. Although there was no any relationship between Sheilor and Charming until now, but that kind of faint feeling kept fermenting slowly and sweetly, by instinct, Sheilor didn’t want any other man to see Charming that exposed outside bare shoulders, Charming also felt something, she said in a low voice, “Cheapskate.”
After she finished this words, Charming took Sheilor’s elbow very naturally, Sheilor had his half body turned into fossil suddenly, somewhat out of phase to move his steps. It suddenly had some spring meaning in the autumn wind, let his face to have some slightly warm feeling.
The trip for buying the clothes was ended very soon, at least the counted as middle class Sheilor didn’t draw any supercilious look from those shopping guide misses. Although Charming also bought several sets of clothes, but she was not as picky as the general girls, very neatly chose what she liked, paid for them and then packed to go. After they had done all of these, this pair of young man and woman began to go window-shopping in the most prosperous area of the Coastal state, just arm in arm like that to walk
around, such as a pair of in love lovers.
“Didn’t hold her hand.” Sheilor accurately told himself what he should do now, could it be that this is a dating? The matter seemed to develop a bit too fast, but that soft body by his side, the light fragrance made him somewhat confused.
After walked on the streets of the Coastal state for about five miles, the arms of Sheilor and Charming dropped down about four inches, both people looked straight ahead, both pretended that they didn’t know about the difficult and long lasting four inches dropping process. At this time, Charming’s hand had already like-touching-but-not-touching held Sheilor’s forearm, she had a flicker of smile in her eyes, thought in her mind that Sheilor was really an honest guy.
“I’m hungry now, let’s go to have some meals.” Walked on the stone path along the Rose river for about half an hour, Sheilor suddenly said this words very seriously, and then his right hand held Charming that soft and slightly cold hand very rightly, pulled her to walk to a restaurant by the street.
The hold was all the sweat.
“There should have a lot of rumors about me in the school.” Charming sat across the dining table, cut the black pepper steak carefully, lowered her head and asked, “Do you have any thought about that?”
“This want me to praise first and then give the speech?” Sheilor also lowered his head at this time, cutting those meat fiber too even synthetic beef attentively, thought like this in his heart, but the words came out from his mouth was another one, “I don’t think that you particularly care about the view of others.”
Charming was slightly surprised to raise her head, had some lonely smile on her face, said in a low voice, “A lot of people think that I am a naïve, unrealistic, innocent and silly woman, would actually for the so-called ideal, to give up my study, went to the S2 anti-government area.”
Sheilor stared blankly for a moment, didn’t think of what Charming wanted to say was this thing. The rumor about her past, he had already heard a little bit in the campus. Just from the day he met her, the Charming in
Sheilor’s eyes was just like that quiet and insipid in front of people, but somewhat strange and clever in private little girl. He couldn’t link her with that kind of image together, he thought for a moment and then said with a smile, “Have you come back? What’s more, as long as it is an ideal, it always should be respected.”
Charming looked at him, silenced for a moment, then said seriously, “What do you think about George Colin?”
Sheilor didn’t have any opinion for the politics or George Colin, but he also thought of that Charming came back to the school, she should be looking for some certain kind of mental support, he said with hesitation, “The theory maybe is good, but when it is used to guide the behavior, perhaps… Well, to tell the truth, I think he’s got a point.”
Charming had a smile gratified, looked at him and said, “Although I came back to the university, but in fact… I still miss those time when I was over there, actually I am always a believer of George Colin.”
Sheilor was surprised slightly, thought in his heart that why you would come back then. Charming didn’t continue on this topic, just looked at Sheilor and thought with some sour in the heart, if without those things, could develop the relationship naturally with this honest and lovely boy in front, perhaps it should be a really wonderful thing.
Charming looked at the outside of the window habitually, said quietly, “Do you believe in love?”
“I do.”
“I don’t know what love is.” Charming looked at the people walking outside of the window, “Even if I could understand love this thing in the future, but what is forever this thing then?”
Sheilor looked at her that looking at the pedestrians outside of the window face, thought with a smile, Charming was really a nervous girl. In his mind, love this thing just needed to believe, it wouldn’t need to know originally-- And today this such beautiful girl, was about to make him believe.
