Snow in Beijing
Back in the old house that Zhang Rixuan gave me, I was wrapped in the darkness of the night with the same attitude, so I couldn't help but think about this night again in the silence of the night.
Fate seems to be a very wonderful thing, Chu He was in debt of 1 million, but in the end, Zhang Rixuan and An Qi each took out 500,000 to solve Chu He's debt problem.
What was it that held these three women together? I wasn't sure, but I knew it would haunt me for a long time.
I thought of Xiang Chen again, remembered his refusal, and remembered the picture where he deliberately asked Anqi if he had any money to lend me...... It is as if human nature has suddenly become vain and ethereal.
A gust of wind blew a dark cloud and obscured the moonlight, so the night became darker and thicker, I was a little tired, but I smiled helplessly, so I didn't know how hypocritical it was to laugh in order to blend into this real world.
At this moment, I would rather be a bird without legs, and I also want to shuttle through that crystal clear city, even if I can't perch, even if I die of exhaustion, but at least I have flown innocently......
......
After a sleepless night, the next day, I didn't get up until 10 o'clock, just after washing up, I received a call from Chu He, she told me that Lu Yu had accompanied her to pay off the loan shark, in order to express her gratitude, she planned to invite us to have a meal together at noon today, including Zhang Rixuan, and asked me to make an appointment for Zhang Rixuan for her.
So after ending the call with her, I dialed Zhang Rixuan's phone, no one answered the first time, and I called again at 11 o'clock, and she finally answered the phone, and asked me in a hurried tone: "Is there something wrong, Jiaming?"
I was very cooperative, and I quickened my voice and replied: "Chu He has already paid off the loan shark he owes, and in order to express his gratitude, he plans to invite us to have a meal together at noon." ”
"I'm in Shanghai right now for a business meeting. ”
"Oh, why don't you do it at night, are you free at night?"
"There are other business talks in the afternoon, and you may not be able to go back today, so let's get together." ”
I didn't say anything more, after all, the work was important, but after telling Zhang Rixuan "don't be too tired", they hung up the phone.
I stood by the window for a long time, and the direct sunlight at noon dispelled the cold of winter, and I finally moved the plates of plants raised by Zhang Rixuan to the balcony, so that they could enjoy the warmth of the sun, and they might grow better when the spring is warm next year.
......
At 12 o'clock at noon, me, Chu He, and Lu Yu came to the food and drink that had already been prepared, and the four of them sat down around the dining table.
Munn asked me, "Jiaming, did you make an appointment with Zhang Rixuan?"
"I called her, she was in Shanghai for a meeting, and she couldn't come. I replied.
Meng En said regretfully: "Chu He is very sincere and wants to invite her to dinner!"
"Another day, there are plenty of opportunities. ”
Chu He took the words and said, "I'll go to Beijing this afternoon, and I may not go back to Suzhou this year." ”
"What, did you get a new play?"
Chu He shook his head and said, "No, but there are more opportunities to stay in Beijing, and try your best to get a new play this year." ”
I felt the sadness in Chu He's words, she has not yet become famous, going to Beijing means wandering and being left out in the cold, she is about to walk on a road full of hardships, but what can be done? People always have to be busy, to endure, to work hard...... But she is just an insecure woman after all, and she can only silently wish her in her heart that her next road can go smoothly.
Lu Yu put his arm around Chu He's shoulders and comforted: "Beijing, I have a lot of friends who play music, I will let them take care of you over there, if you can't do anything, just trouble them, they are all cheerful people." ”
"Well, thank you Lu Yu. Chu He smiled and said.
"Don't be so polite, old friend for so many years. Lu Yu also said with a smile in return.
Chu He nodded, and Munn patted me on the shoulder again and asked, "Jia Ming, you are so silent, do you have nothing to say to Chu He?"
"I have something to say. I answered, looked at Chu He again and said, "Take care of yourself after you arrive in Beijing, don't put too much pressure on yourself, as for the bar, I will help you run it." ”
Munn also chimed in: "Well, Jia Ming is right, we will help with the affairs of the bar, and when you come back from Beijing next time, we will definitely make the bar a good one." ”
Chu He looked at us for a long time, with tears in his eyes, and finally choked up and said: "It is my greatest luck to meet your group of friends on the road of life, thank you...... I will definitely work hard this time, for myself and for you!"
We all nodded, and Munn, who was the most adept at adjusting the atmosphere, raised his glass and said, "Then a toast to our friendship...... I wish Chu He a smooth journey and a smooth journey to the stars!"
"Have a good journey, and the stars are smooth!"
Our glasses collided together, and the wine shook in the glasses, as if shaking out the trauma of youth, the helplessness of life, and the pain of life...... And the only remaining hope for the future!
......
After lunch, Lu Yu and I helped Chu He carry her luggage, and Munn stopped a taxi for her, which she would take to the airport later, and then leave Suzhou and fly to Beijing, the city that carried her dreams.
Chu He took out a bank card from his wallet, which was the one that Anqi gave me yesterday, and she said to me: "There is still 150,000 yuan in this card, which will be used as the liquidity of the bar in the future." ”
"Hmm. I nodded and took it.
The taxi driver was already urging, Chu He looked at us, and finally said to me: "Jiaming, don't worry, even if I die, I will definitely pay off this million arrears, and I won't let you owe favors to others." ”
I frowned and said, "What is not dead, we all have to live, and we have to live beautifully...... Don't put too much pressure on yourself about money, you know?"
Chu He just looked at me, took the luggage from Lu Yu and me, and walked towards the taxi.
Looking at her thin back, I had an inexplicable feeling in my heart, and lit a cigarette for myself in silence, and Mun and Lu Yu also tacitly lit a cigarette for themselves, at this moment, I believe that we are in the same mood, we see the heaviness of life in the back of her departure, and we are more worried that her thin body will be overwhelmed!
I threw my head up, closed my eyes, and exhaled the cigarette in my mouth...... Is there really a crystal clear city in this world?
If so, please gently rest our weary souls!
......
When we opened our eyes again, the taxi was no longer in our sight, and I, Lu Yu, and Meng En were standing in the same posture in the sun, but enduring the cutting of the cold wind.
I said to the two, "It hasn't snowed this winter, has it?"
Lu Yu nodded, looked at the far north, and said for a long time: "I heard that Beijing has been ...... Fuck, a snow that has nothing to do with me, but it's covering my wounds. ”
Meng En didn't understand Lu Yu's feelings, but I knew that the "snow in Beijing" that he inadvertently mentioned reminded him of the Beijing girl he couldn't forget.
I finally smiled and said to Munn, who didn't know why, "Ignore him, the folk singers are all psychos, and they don't know what they're talking about, so let's go back and drink." ”
I still looked north while I was hugging...... Even I don't know what he's thinking at this moment
