The event began quickly, and the first process was naturally for Xu Qing to share and introduce her work on stage. A few of us sat near the bar, and after a round of applause, the whole café gradually fell silent, and we didn't have a microphone ready, she just told the story.

The general content of the novel written by Xu Qing is: The heroine is studying abroad alone, in Canada, from studying to working, how she breaks free from the bottom life step by step and realizes her ideals. Born in a poor family, alone in a foreign land, helpless...... Every time I pay my tuition fees, I feel the poorest, and every day I have to think about how I can earn money for the next day's meal......

Tears gleamed in her eyes as she described some of the storylines in the book, and we watched this scene. Wen Shuya whispered to me that although Xu Qing's family background seems to be very good now, in fact, when she first went out to study, a lot of changes happened in her family, and those days were not only her family, but also the darkest time for herself, but she didn't know that those dark days had just begun.

To put it bluntly, in fact, the heroine in the book is herself, and it is estimated that many of the plots in the book are adapted from true stories, which just explains why there are tears in her eyes, as far as the eye can see, they are all memories.

As she spoke, my head slowly lowered, and I lifted my hand to stroke the ring necklace that hung from my chest, and fell into a whirlpool of memories...... Canada, studying abroad, being alone, this series of keywords reminds me of Su Jing, who disappeared for almost a year, if the story continues, then she should be the heroine of Xu Qing's pen! The necklace is still there, but the person who gave the necklace is not around...... Well, what is the point of thinking about this now?

I put the necklace inside my clothes and looked up to listen to Xu Qing continue to speak. At this time, very light lyrical music sounded in the café, which did not affect the audience's voice listening to Xu Qing's voice, the volume was just right, and it could also adjust the atmosphere of the whole scene. I looked behind the bar with curiosity, and it turned out to be Yang Fan, when did this kid pass?

I looked at him with an admiring expression, made a "six" gesture, and Yang Fan smiled confidently at me, and then my attention continued to return to the computer on the stage. When I was about to look at Xu Qing, the mobile phone in my pocket suddenly vibrate, I took it out and looked at it, but I didn't expect it to be a call from Cheng Yu.

I made a "answer the phone" gesture to Wen Shuya and Han Yue, and then walked out of the café sideways, and then picked up the phone.

"Why did it take so long to answer the phone and not get up yet?" Cheng Yu asked, there was a noisy sound similar to a vegetable market on the other side of the phone, and he should have taken the time to call me outside.

"I woke up early, and I went to a friend's event on vacation today, what's wrong?" I took advantage of this free time, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case in my pocket, put it in my mouth, lowered my head slightly and lit it.

"I should have received the money transferred, right? I transferred it to you in the morning...... Hey, uncle, how do you sell this fish?" he finished talking to me, and then to the person on the other side of the phone.

My heart suddenly tightened, it turned out that the money received by the bank card transfer in the morning was transferred by Cheng Yu, I thought for a while, and asked puzzledly: "No, why did you suddenly transfer money to me? Did you win the lottery and make a windfall?"

"Are you stupid, if I win the lottery, will I only transfer 2,000 yuan to you? To tell you the truth, it was Lao Cheng who asked me to transfer it to you, because he didn't know how to operate the transfer online, so he asked me to transfer ......" After a pause, his tone became a little stunned, and then said: "Didn't you come back to Guangzhou very early during the Chinese New Year?" said that he was traveling with friends, in fact, his parents knew that you wanted to go back to find a job early, but they didn't want them to worry, but the result was not to make the second old man feel at ease, Lao Cheng saw that you hadn't contacted your family for so long, it had been almost two months, I didn't know how to find a job, I was afraid that you wouldn't have enough money, so I asked me to transfer you 2,000 yuan. ”

Cheng Yu's words made me fall silent, and I didn't know what to say for a while, I only knew that my inner emotions were very complicated, guilt, self-blame, and moving......

When I was silent, Cheng Yu said again: "You are really, no matter what, you should call home to say, it's not that I don't know that although my parents sometimes have knife mouths, they have always been tofu hearts." ”

"Well, I see, I'll call home later. ”

"Okay, okay, I won't tell you yet, I have to go to Kening's house for dinner in the evening, and I will buy seafood at the vegetable market, that's all, you remember to call." ”

After hanging up the phone, I didn't go back to the café immediately, but looked at the small cigarette in my hand in a daze. After a quiet moment, I took the last puff of my cigarette, snuffed it out in the trash can, and then turned back to the café.

When I returned to the café, I happened to see Xu Qing smiling and bowing lightly to everyone, and it seemed that the sharing session was about to come to an end.

"That's all for this morning's sharing, our activities continue at two o'clock in the afternoon, there are very interesting interactive programs in the afternoon activity process, I hope you can actively participate, thank you!"

There was a round of applause from the people in the audience, and after a while, they silently left the café one after another. I looked at the time, it was already half past eleven, I didn't expect the time to pass so quickly, but judging by the number of people and the atmosphere of the café, the overall effect of the event was still very good.

......

At noon, Xu Qing invited a few of us to dinner in order to express her gratitude. After the meal, when we were about to return to the café to prepare for the afternoon event, Han Yue stopped me, saying that she wanted to talk to me about something, so everyone else went back first.

Han Yue and I walked side by side on a green boulevard until there was a public bench not far ahead, and she suggested that we sit down and talk, and I nodded yes.

After walking to the chair and sitting down, Han Yue handed me the bag she had been holding in her hand, with a smile on her face, and said, "Oh, it's for you." ”

"What is it?" I said, opening the bag as I placed it on the coat I had left at her house earlier, and as soon as I picked it up, I could smell a faint fragrance, and the smell of the sun was still there, and it was obvious that she had washed it on purpose. After I picked up my clothes, there was a box at the bottom, which was the latest mobile phone on the market!

I looked up at Han Yue with a somewhat surprised expression, and the wind ruffled her hair, disturbing her stunning face. Han Yue raised her hand and brushed her windswept hair, and said with a light smile: "Last time you sent me back, I forgot to take my clothes when they fell on me, but I helped you wash them." Uh, also, also that night, in the safe lane, your phone broke, so I bought you a new one. ”

"Then you don't need to buy such an expensive phone! Besides, my phone just has a cracked screen, and I can continue to use it, so there's no need to change it to a new one." I stared at her with wide eyes.

"It's okay, you can take it...... Whoever is good to me, I will also be good to him. ”

After repeated excuses, Han Yue insisted that I accept the mobile phone she gave me, and I had to reluctantly accept the precious gift, but the words she said in my mind, "I will also be good to those who are good to me", are like lingering sounds, and they can't be dispersed for a long time......

I put the bag aside, but the two of them didn't say anything at the same time. At this time, I wanted to light a cigarette, but I felt that it was not polite.

After a brief silence, Han Yue suddenly looked at me, raised her hand and pointed at my chest.

In order to alleviate the awkward atmosphere just now, I deliberately made a nervous expression and closed the neckline of my clothes.

Han Yue's speechless expression gave me a blank look, and said with a smile: "I mean the necklace around your neck, what do you want!"

"Oh. I took the necklace out of my clothes and continued, "Is this what you're talking about?

"When Xu Qing shared a certain storyline in her book on stage just now, I saw that your expression was a little different, and the necklace in your hand was regarded as a treasure, is this chain important to you?"

I don't really like the feeling of being seen through by others, so I avoided her eyes looking at me, and replied a little perfunctorily: "No, it's just that I've been wearing it for a long time, and I feel a little emotional, nothing." ”

"Really?"

This time, I chose to remain silent and did not continue to answer her words, and Han Yue did not continue the topic, and the two fell into silence again...... After a while, I wanted to tentatively ask her if I could smoke, but just as I was about to speak, she suddenly stood up and turned her back to me, I couldn't see her expression clearly, but I could clearly hear her indifferent voice: "I still have to leave beforehand, I won't go to the afternoon activities." ”

She walked with neither fast nor slow steps, drifting away in the afternoon wind, until she turned a corner and disappeared from my sight. At last I was able to light a cigarette, but I became even more stunned, and I sighed and said, "Oh, woman!
