Chapter 43 Ch43 Courtship

There are sculptures on the benches by Lake Toning.

When it’s freezing and snowy, there are few people walking on the street. It’s hard to see a figure, but when you get closer, you find that it’s a dummy thinking with its head propped up. About 80 kilometers east of Vick, where the Stoker Geyser is located, Shen Teng heard the story of the British Jeff.

Jeff is Qin Zheng's colleague in the travel agency and the tour guide for their trip to the glacier lake last time. As a Scot from the northernmost tip of the British territory, he was lucky enough to meet true love and get married there after he came to Iceland ten years ago. Since then, he has settled down in this foreign country.

Perhaps the water quality near the Arctic Circle is better. On the way here, Jeff touched his hairline that was still alive in the back seat of the car, and joked to himself that he bravely stepped out of his hometown and finally broke the British ancestry. of the mystical spell.

It's funny to say that after Shen Teng came to Iceland, he only left Reykjavik twice, but this gentleman accompanied him on both trips.

Last time it was a long journey to Glacier Lake, but this time it was only more than an hour's drive, and they chose to leave in the early morning to avoid the rush hour, but Jeff and Qin Zheng still appeared at Shen Tom's house and waited. Him, this makes people can't help being a little surprised.

Last week, Shen Teng proposed a "date" to Qin Zheng at his home, and kindly told him: "It's okay, I have left room in the schedule for 'occasionally doing nothing and just want to relax for a day'."

But Qin Zheng had to work that day.

Well... that's fine too!Men who work hard are the most attractive!And don't young couples always have that kind of plot where they visit each other?

Shen Teng is willing to take the initiative to go out to work with Qin Zheng - it is also possible to pay a travel fee.It just so happened that last time he just passed by as a tourist explaining for free, and this time Shen Teng replenished them.

But he didn't expect Qin Zheng to refuse again.

"It's still the same route, gathering at the cathedral, walking all the way to the beach, and finally returning to the church along Lake Toning. We have walked many times."

Shen Teng also wanted to argue again: "The same route, in different situations, there will always be new feelings."

This time Qin Zheng asked more bluntly: "Do you really want to go?"

Shen Teng blinked.

Qin Zheng looked at the man being questioned, smiled instead of anger, and raised his hand to caress Shen Tom's forehead, with a gentle tone, as if the 26-year-old was not Shen Tom but himself: "Even lovers don't have to be married every day. We're all tired of being together, aren't you catching up with the deadline for that violin recently? I know that you are very devoted to your work, so you don't have to make time for me to do things you don't want to do that much."

"...I don't understand," Shen Teng tilted his head in confusion while hugging his knees, "It is said on the Internet——"

It is said on the Internet that couples in the period of passionate love will stick together all the time, and Qin Zheng himself said that he wants to know what Shen Teng is doing all the time.

Is he Ye Gong likes dragons?

After a moment of silence, Qin Zheng finally confessed after hesitating: "I am indeed learning to suppress, Shen Jiaying, I'm afraid you will soon get tired of my expectations."

It was too frank, Shen Teng was even dumb for a moment.

In fact, Shen Teng saw the real reason for Qin Zheng's hesitation when his confession did not get an immediate response that day, and after careful consideration, he was ready to accept the change in the way of getting along with Qin Zheng. possible.But he didn't expect... He didn't expect that not only did Qin Zheng not make progress after becoming Shen Teng's boyfriend as he said, but he was actually trying to learn to "repress".Regardless of whether it is the former or the latter, the starting point is actually the same—he really likes and likes Shen Teng as he said, just like Shen Teng who is willing to give up part of his freedom for him, and he is also willing to do it for Shen Teng. Toma changed himself little by little.

In the field of emotion, Shen Teng has always only scratched the surface.He never really tried to form a deeper relationship with another human being, and the skills involved with it were too raw.

As for Qin Zheng, he sometimes felt that the other party seemed to be very talented. Even though the emotional experience that he could really get was almost as blank as his own, he could still speak clearly when educating himself.

But thinking about it, Qin Zheng always seems to have mastered too much theoretical knowledge (lack of practice). Whenever he really needs to take an exam, he will have too much stationery because of poor students, and he can't figure out what to take out for a while. After setting the formula and thinking carefully, he can only decide to take a step back and proceed with caution.

He probably missed the most courageous and fearless age when he fell in love, Shen Teng thought with regret.

He is still young, but his mentality has inevitably aged a long time in advance, and because he is too aware of the ambiguous flow between people, from the very beginning, Shen Teng didn't feel that he would be in this relationship. Get too many "hot love" pleasure orgasms in it.

Thinking about it this way is actually quite unfair to Qin Zheng. After all, our second young master may be at the age where he can boldly talk about love, but Shen Teng's illness has made him stop and hesitate now.

These conflicts between them are not big or small, and there is a long way to go, but the relationship between the two of them seems to be like this, it is extremely troublesome, but as long as both of them have the heart to continue, everything will be fine. Troubles turn into the little joys of life that you can't help but laugh at.

Since everyone is a fool in love, let's make steady progress together and try boldly.

After kissing Shen Tomao goodbye at the door of his house that day, Qin Zheng hugged his boyfriend's waist reluctantly, as compensation for not being able to accompany him tomorrow, and also as a product of his own desire to date Shen Tomato. Qin Zheng, an ordinary Icelander who has lost the aura of "overlord" for a long time, tried his best to pretend to be strong and asked Shen Teng to spare time in the early morning of the weekend a week later, and then he would take him to see the scenery of the Golden Circle.

People always miss winter in summer, and summer in winter, but maybe Iceland’s winter and summer are too distinct. In summer, where the day is 24 hours a day, everyone is always in a hurry, as if urged by the sun, Don't live in chaos.

I can’t say whether it’s good or bad to catch up with the days close to the polar day when I came to Iceland for the first time. Now it’s the most expensive time of the year in Iceland. There are so many tourists in the peak season of travel. Walking on the streets during the day is everywhere. The flow of strangers.

But if you are lucky, Shen Teng will spend a very complete summer here.

By the way, do you still remember the "first day of summer" in the Icelandic calendar? Every time this festival comes, Icelanders will send "summer gifts". This tradition is at least hundreds of years earlier than giving Christmas gifts.And on the first day of summer in Iceland this year, Shen Teng was busy making his violin named "Elsa", completely forgetting about the agreement with Qin Zheng.

"Are you sorry?" Qin Zheng asked him.

"Extremely regrettable," Shen Teng pursed his lips guiltyly, but looked at the melting snow mountaintop in the distance, and he quickly laughed again, "Although we didn't spend the first day of summer together, the whole summer We're all in this together, aren't we?"

His summer has not been incomplete due to his absence from Iceland's first day of summer celebrations due to his hectic schedule. Thatch completes part of summer.

The concept of stealing a very philosophical speculation, the moment he finished speaking, he was applauded by Jeff sitting in the back of his car.This gentleman has an excellent personality, is humorous, and makes jokes along the way to enliven the atmosphere. Although this "date" is different from Shen Tso's original idea, it has to be said that he also makes this journey full of fun , called Shen Tomato likes it very much.

They are on the "Golden Circle" right now.

This is a tourist route extending from Reykjavik to the middle of Iceland. It is full of wonders and wonders, which can be called the essence of Icelandic travel. The famous Strok Geyser is one of the three major attractions in the Golden Circle. .Because they set off at night and arrived in the early morning, the three of them saw the whole process of the sun setting and rising briefly on the road, and after arriving, there was no one around this "Iceland must-see" attraction.

The geyser is a round pool with a diameter of about 20 meters. Hot water flows slowly in it. Every few minutes, the calm pool water will bubble up and make a sound like a boiling pot. As the sound gets louder and louder, at a certain moment , a column of water will rise from a hole with a diameter of about 3 meters into the sky, and immediately turn into jade beads and broken jade, pouring hot drizzle on the blue sky.

Captivating.

Jeff is very affectionate. Although he has many opportunities to go out as a full-time tour guide, he usually takes his family on short-distance family trips, and has a lot of camping and picnic tools in the trunk.

When Shen Toma couldn't help turning back to share his amazement with his companions for the first time because of the landscape of the geyser eruption, what he saw was that the Englishman had successfully set up a small table and three chairs in the open space and set them up. Many images of exquisite refreshments that should be presented as afternoon tea.

This is simply more breathtaking than the stunning view of the geyser.

Qin Zheng's child went to a farther place to study things that he was more interested in. Shen Teng, a generous parent, just looked at him casually to express his concern, and walked over under Jeff's smiling hand and sat down. Go to his side and ask the question that I have been curious about for a long time: "With so many tourists in summer, will the locals be upset by it?"

In order to avoid crowds, they chose to set off in the early hours of the morning, and fortunately, they could indeed enjoy the exclusive VIP viewing right at this moment.What about the more usual moments when you need to huddle together with strangers from all over the world to share these scenic spots?Can Icelanders resist the haughty possessiveness?

"It really won't."

Jeff, who has been with his Icelandic wife for ten years, shook his head and replied responsibly: "Icelanders are very tolerant towards tourists. After all, summer is always bright and nature is always open. They say: In Iceland, people always have a choice."

It's really cool.

Shen Teng put a piece of puff into his mouth, propped his chin and watched the geyser erupt twice, and suddenly remembered something: "Today is the weekend, aren't you going to accompany your wife?"

Jeff shrugged: "She'd love me to come out and do odd jobs to save her sleep quality."

Shen Teng raised his eyebrows and turned his head: "Part-time job?"

Jeff also raised his eyebrows and turned his head: "You don't know?"

Shen Teng tilted his head: "What should I know?"

Jeff also tilted his head: "Qin didn't tell you?"

Shen Teng: "?"

Jeff: "?"

Realizing that the two of them looked at each other for several rounds of useless conversation, Jeff raised his hand in time to stop, and ended his riddle with a laugh: "He invited me to do private work during the vacation—to be your private tour guide, and the pay is good. But talk about money It's really hurtful, I was talking all kinds of things, but in the end it was replaced by an invitation for Qin to agree to come to my house for dinner."

Icelanders, especially those in Reykjavik, are actually very curious about outsiders. They prefer to focus on themselves rather than others. They are so polite that they will never try to start socializing first, but even after living here for ten years, Jeff still hasn't been able to do as the Romans do.

This gentleman with still thick hair is forever young and always has the greatest interest in mysterious strangers coming from afar.

"Actually, on the way here, I was still curious why he needed me as a guide. Obviously, during the interview, his topic was the scenic spots in the Golden Circle, and he performed very well...now I found out."

Jeff winked at Shen Teng: "He just wants me to make light bulbs."

Shen Teng laughed.

"How long have you been dating?" Jeff asked.

This year is a bit long, three years have just passed, but if you change the time point... Shen Tom replied: "Two and a half weeks."

Jeff exclaimed: "Wow, that's the period of love."

He has a good sense of propriety, and he didn't ask why the last time they went to the glacier lake, they both hugged in full view at the end of the world, and it still wasn't counted as a date. Jeff just asked cheerfully: "Is Qin very shy?" ? You actually need a chatterbox to support you."

Talkative.His positioning of himself is quite accurate.

Shen Teng was still smiling: "No... I can probably understand what he's thinking."

All along, for a long time, Shen Teng has never had many friends.

His spiritual world is full enough to support him to walk alone in every corner of the world, but in many cases, this "fullness" is like a bubble that only looks bright and shining, and when it bursts, only a grand emptiness remains. Let him also suddenly become the bubble that appears when the mermaid is about to disappear on the sea surface, and he doesn't know when it will disappear forever with the rising sun.

Qin Zheng probably thought that if he could add more human voices to Shen Tom's quiet and empty world, then maybe the place would become more real and lively, and it would also give him more bargaining chips to make Shen Tom willing to live. .

Very cute idea.

However, neither Shen Teng nor Qin Zheng had expressed this idea to outsiders, but Jeff found out what Qin Zheng wanted him to do without a teacher.

"Do you know why geysers look like they do?" he asked.

Shen Teng squinted his eyes and tried to pull out some knowledge from his head: "Sufficient groundwater sources, special geological structures, heating of active volcanic lava, vaporization, pressure... what, right?"

"Oh my god," Jeff put on a shocked gesture, "you Asians are really... amazing."

Not only can add and subtract verbally when checking out, but also understand pressure.

Without explaining that he is not a native of Asian descent, he is really a fool who is prone to headaches in science. The few academic words he cobbled together just now were all due to last night's make-up lessons. Shen Tom just said humbly: "Coincidentally, coincidentally."

Jeff smiled, and changed the question without any bluntness at all: "Do you believe in true love?"

Shen Teng nodded: "Of course." He has always believed that true love does exist in this world, but whether he will see it or not is another matter.

"Then do you believe true love is eternal?"

Such a tricky question, if it wasn't clear that Qin Zheng wouldn't do such boring things, Shen Teng would almost think that he was sent by the second young master to sniff out.

But even if it is true, it doesn't matter, Shen Teng is in a good mood at the moment, even if it is a stranger's question, he is willing to answer seriously.

"It's hard to say, after all, people's thoughts flow and change all the time. I think, even if it's just me last week, it's completely different from what I think at this moment."

Jeff put on a thoughtful look, and soon smiled again with his mouth puckered: "It makes sense, but you still don't seem to have answered my question."

The British winked at him slyly: "Then, just ask you at this moment: Mr. Shen, do you believe that true love is eternal?"

Shen Teng curled the corners of his lips.

He looked into the distance, Qin Zheng was squatting there with his back to them studying the soil shaped by volcanic ash.

As mentioned before, Qin Zheng thought about studying architecture, but in the unfinished part, the young second young master actually had a lot of ideas: bioengineering, philosophy, Greek, Chinese and American culture and sociology Research... Architecture is just one of the most plausible of them all.And in those unconstrained dreams, being a soil scientist was actually Qin Zheng's original idea.

But even if it was just talking, Qin Zheng still never expressed his ideas to anyone other than Shen Teng.On the one hand, it’s because these “conceptions” are really only conjectures, and we can’t talk about the height of “dreams”; on the other hand, because looking back at history, Qin Zheng, who seems to have grown a rebellious body, is actually not as rebellious as everyone thinks. From the beginning to the end, and if you put those various ideas together and sum them up, you will find that they have amazing similarities: they are all majors that his father will not let him learn.

For a long time, Qin Zheng almost let his parents play with his life.

During this trip to Iceland, Shen Teng was looking for the meaning of the end, and Qin Zheng was looking for answers about his own life.

Sitting here and resting, Jeff stretched, got up and walked to Qin Zheng, who was 20 meters away.

He might have said something to the second young master. Shen Teng's eyesight was excellent (even though he still had excellent eyesight, I was also very impressed) seeing Qin Zheng blinking in surprise, and after a while, he was hooked by Jeff on his shoulders again He raised his eyes and looked in Shen Teng's direction.

As thick-skinned as Shen Teng, he even waved his hands at him naturally.

Young scholars gave up studying soil and came over.

Shen Teng looked at Qin Zheng stepping on the black soil step by step in the background of the geyser eruption with a half-smile and approached, until he stood in front of him, he lazily bent his index finger, propped his head and looked at the person: "Jeff Did I say anything to you?"

"Well," Qin Zheng nodded, with a calm tone, "He said you love me."

"..."

Shen Teng slowly opened his eyes wide, and after being silent, he still choked twice before speaking slowly: "Are the British so unreasonable and love to spread rumors..."

Qin Zheng raised his eyebrows: "Is this a rumor?"

Shen Teng touched his chin and pondered for a moment, then said frankly: "Well, not exactly."

Regarding "Is true love eternal", his answer just now is to the point, which is consistent with the connotation he expressed when he wooed Qin Zheng before.

But it would still be a bit of a disappointment to say it directly.

But Shen Teng still decided to spoil the fun, so he told Qin Zheng the above four sentences in full.

But he didn't expect Qin Zheng to laugh anyway, and it seemed a little too happy.

Shen Teng: "What are you laughing at?"

Qin Zheng: "What did you just say?"

Shen Teng was a little confused, and repeated: "What did I say?"

Qin Zheng: "Say, you woo me."

Shen Teng's brows were still confused, and he blinked: "What's wrong?"

Qin Zheng stretched out his hands to pinch the man's tactile cheeks, and pulled them outward: "Whenever this happens, I really hope that you are disguising yourself as a Chinese."

A very complex sentence.

Shen Teng blinked hard, and finally understood: "Did I use the wrong word?"

Courtship refers to all preparatory behaviors between male and female individuals prior to copulation.

The behavior shown in the courtship process is called courtship behavior, but the biological significance achieved by courtship behavior is that male and female individuals meet at a certain place, overcome each other's attack and escape from each other, and prepare for the copulation of the two. time.As a part of courtship behavior, it is manifested in many aspects such as courtship bait, nesting courtship, and the exchange of odor signals.

——From Encyclopedia

"I did use it wrong." Shen Teng frowned while pointing to a line of words on the phone screen. "'Courtship' refers to 'male and female individuals'. So which word should be used between people of the same sex?"

"..."

After not getting a reply for a while, Shen Teng raised his eyelids and met Qin Zheng's deep eyes unexpectedly.

After a long while, Qin Zheng finally spoke, but what he said was: "Can I kiss you?"

Shen Tomato raised his eyebrows: "Are you asking me?"

"No," Qin Zheng lowered his head and approached him, "I'm warning you."

Pretend.

Qin Zheng's eyes are very beautiful.

Shen Teng thought of it countless times when the pair of ink-like eyes appeared close at hand.

Then he realized that Qin Zheng really kissed him.

Unlike in the past, this time their lips were tightly touching, but it seemed that they were just touching.Shen Teng could feel Qin Zheng's breathing, which was generally even and long, but he didn't know whether it was because of the active volcano under their feet or some other reason. Gradually, Qin Zheng's breathing seemed to be a little hard to conceal.

At that moment, Shen Teng thought a lot in the early morning wind in Iceland.

He thought of the tumultuous mornings and nights they had spent together.

Qin Zheng is always obsessed with asking him which meeting impressed him more, and Shen Teng's answer is different every time.He is in love with the splendor of Barcelona, ​​and he can't forget the sound of whales in Buenos Aires. At the same time, like Qin Zheng, he can't help but think back to the simple and warm residence in Zambia. The appearance of a frank kiss under the darkness of night.

Before that, Shen Teng had never allowed anyone to kiss his lips, and that was even only his second meeting with Qin Zheng.

Then, Shen Teng let out a sigh.

Perhaps because he noticed that he was distracted, Qin Zheng, a wolf cub, actually bit him. In the clear sky, he boldly stretched out both hands to hold Shen Teng's jaw and the back of his head when the geyser was once again thriving. , forcefully pried open Shen thatch's clamshell-like teeth with his tongue.

The teeth of the two collided and the sourness rushed to the sky. The old fritters in the love scene were blown by the Icelandic wind and turned into two young boys who didn't know how to kiss.

Shen Teng couldn't help cursing in the middle of taking a breath: "Are you crazy?"

Qin Zheng looked at him and said frankly, "Soon."

Shen Teng turned his face to the side and smiled, and after a while, he looked at Qin Zheng gently again.

In order to respond to the other party's frankness, Shen Teng once again answered Jeff's question to Qin Zheng.

Do you believe true love is eternal?

"Never believed. Never until you came to me."

The meaning of this sentence is not that he already believes, but that he is willing to try to believe.

This is a small step for Shen Teng, but also a giant leap for Shen Teng and Qin Zheng.

"Can you understand?" Shen Teng suddenly felt a little shy, "Although it doesn't sound very good, I have already completed it from scratch..."

"A historic leap." Qin Zheng continued.

"I understand," he smiled and kissed Shen Teng's eyes, "I love you."

The summer was bright, and geysers erupted behind them.

Eros came to the Golden Circle.
