A youthful ten-year promise

Chapter 88 The Dissolution and Reorganization of the Team

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains, dappling Lin Youran's face. She slowly opened her eyes, noticing the faint scent of lemon still lingering in the room. This fragrance always reminded her of the innocent days she spent with Shen Yichen.

Today is graduation day. Lin Youran put on her carefully chosen graduation gown, stood in front of the mirror, and meticulously adjusted the tassel on her cap. In the mirror, her eyes were firm yet gentle, as if she were saying goodbye to her past self and welcoming a new future.

The campus was shaded by lush trees, and students gathered in small groups, excitedly discussing the upcoming ceremony. Lin Youran walked through the crowd, her eyes constantly searching for Shen Yichen. However, she couldn't find him even as the ceremony began.

At the ceremony, the principal delivered a speech, and graduation certificates were awarded; everything proceeded smoothly. The moment Lin Youran received her graduation certificate, she felt a mix of emotions. This was not only a farewell to university life, but also a final goodbye to those youthful days.

After the ceremony, the students took group photos. Lin Youran stood in front of the teaching building, smiling as she posed for photos with each student. However, there was always a corner in her heart that felt empty, as if waiting for something.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in her sight. Shen Yichen, dressed in his graduation gown and holding a bouquet of flowers, walked slowly towards her. Sunlight shone on him, bathing him in a golden glow.

"You Ran, congratulations on your graduation." Shen Yichen smiled and handed her the flowers.

Lin Youran accepted the flowers, her eyes welling up with tears. She had imagined countless times this moment, with Shen Yichen appearing before her to offer his blessings. However, when this moment actually arrived, she felt somewhat at a loss.

"Yichen, you've finally come." Lin Youran's voice was choked with emotion.

Shen Yichen gently took her hand and said tenderly, "I'm sorry, Youran. I'm late. But please believe me, no matter where we are in the future, I will always be with you."

Lin Youran looked up at Shen Yichen's determined eyes, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She knew that they had been through so much in the past ten years, but it was precisely these experiences that made them cherish each other's presence even more.

They strolled together along the campus paths, reminiscing about the past. Lin Youran recalled their youthful ten-year promise, and her heart was filled with mixed emotions. Back then, they were full of hope and anticipation for the future, never imagining that the road ahead would be so winding.

"Yichen, do you still remember that ten-year promise?" Lin Youran asked softly.

Shen Yichen nodded, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes: "Of course I remember. Back then, we all thought time would pass very slowly, but we never expected that so much time would have passed in the blink of an eye."

"Yes, time really flies," Lin Youran said with emotion. "But no matter what the future holds, I will always remember our promise."

Shen Yichen stopped and looked at Lin Youran earnestly: "Youran, I want to tell you that no matter where we are in the future, no matter what we go through, I will always love you. This promise will never change."

Lin Youran was moved to tears. She hugged Shen Yichen tightly, as if she wanted to remember this moment forever. She knew that this man was the most important person in her life, and no matter what the future held, they would face it together.

As the sun set, they sat together on a bench on campus, watching the afterglow of the sunset bathe the entire campus. At that moment, time seemed to stand still, leaving only their silhouettes and the sound of their heartbeats.

"You Ran, what are your plans for the future?" Shen Yichen asked softly.

Lin Youran thought for a moment and said, "I want to find a job first and settle down. Then I'll consider other things."

Shen Yichen nodded in support: "Whatever decision you make, I will support you. As long as you are happy, I will be content."

They talked a lot about the future, and also about their dreams and aspirations. Lin Youran knew that Shen Yichen had always dreamed of starting his own business, and she decided to be his strongest support when he needed it most.

As night fell, they walked out of the campus together. Lin Youran watched Shen Yichen's retreating figure, her heart filled with happiness and contentment. She knew that this youthful ten-year promise had quietly blossomed and borne fruit, and that they would usher in an even brighter future.

In the long river of time, they may encounter more challenges and difficulties, but as long as they accompany each other, nothing can stop them from moving forward. This youthful ten-year promise will become the most precious memory in their lives, forever treasured in their hearts.
