Chapter 30: Izakaya

Back in the room, Song Qingzhi went to take a bath, she was really tired, and firmly rejected Song Qingzhi's proposal to take a bath with her.

As a result, before Song Qingzhi finished washing, she fell asleep on the bed alone.

After Song Qingzhi came out of the bathroom, he picked up the remote control and turned up the temperature of the air conditioner by a few degrees, and then also hugged Song Qingzhi and fell asleep.

It was just after half past two in the morning, and the rain was still falling, and laughter could still be heard from time to time in a tavern hidden in a secluded part of the market. The proprietress Mu Xiang was wiping her wine glass with a soft cloth while listening to the braggart of the group of drinking men.

"Mu Xiang! You can go with me tomorrow! I've been begging you for weeks!"

A man in a suit wearing glasses like the bottom of a wine bottle blushed and pleaded at the top of his voice.

Mu Xiang pouted and said.

"I said that tomorrow there is a sports day at school, and I can't agree to your appointment. ”

"Don't be delusional! Mu Xiang won't go out with you even if she sleeps!" another man in a suit interrupted him with a playful laugh, and the others joined in. The red-faced man was pushed by him, the glass was not steady, and the wine spilled all over the ground. The men burst into laughter.

"Oops! and all over the floor. Mu Xiang was angry, and then said with a smile, "You guys, except for beating pachinko every day, you come to me to play drunk, it's all waste wood!"

"We have something to do too!" the man in the suit pleaded unconvinced, slipped and fell in front of the bar. The others had to drag him up with all their hands and feet, and the man was already completely drunk, and his feet were still slipping, which was too troublesome. Mu Xiang frowned and didn't bother anymore.

finally sent away this group of drunkards, and Mu Xiang's shop can finally rest. Suddenly, the door behind the counter was pushed open, and a young man walked out and pulled out a black box from behind the full bottles in the wine cabinet. Mu Xiang also walked in, and saw that the man was checking the equipment and didn't speak, and after waiting for a while, she still didn't see the man talking, but she wanted to stop talking. The man noticed her strangeness, looked at her and asked,

"What's wrong?"

"Oh, not really. Mu Xiang rubbed her hands and looked at what the man was tinkering with. The man took out a black SD card from the black box, replaced it with a new one, assembled it and put it back in its place.

"Do you want to shoot again tomorrow?" the woman asked.

"Hmm... I'll go back and export the data first, and if I'm not satisfied, I'll have to trouble you again. ”

After the man finished speaking leisurely, he was about to leave after tidying up his things. Mu Xiang stopped him, took out a bottle of marble soda from the refrigerator and handed it over, the man was a little surprised.

"You try the new flavor first. ”

Mu Xiang said, and the man said thank you and took the soda.

"Poo!", the bubbles in the bottle became fine, the blue bottle suddenly rippled, and the transparent glass beads were wrapped in liquid and tumbled up and down.

"How long have you been in Japan? Mu Xiang saw that he was young, but he acted capably and steadily, without the recklessness of a hairy boy. The man put down the soda and said, "It's only half a year..."

"Why are you here, it looks like you're still a student, but I don't see you ......in class," Mu Xiang asked tentatively, and suddenly found that the man turned his head to look at her and immediately apologized and said,

"Oops, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have had so many mouths..."

"It's okay, I don't mind. ”

The man said with a smile, the new soda tasted a little astringent, he didn't like it too much, and only drank a few sips. Gently shake the glass bottle, and the marble will hit the wall of the cup, and it will click. Mu Xiang saw that he didn't want to talk anymore, so he didn't ask anymore, and turned around and went back to the bar. The man said goodbye to her,

"It's still about nine o'clock tomorrow, and I'll come to the store to check the equipment again, and I'll trouble you then." ”

"You can come, I don't mind. ”

Mu Xiang is always very gentle with him.

A few months ago, men suddenly appeared in her shop and have been frequenting them ever since.

But I don't drink alcohol, and only order light drinks such as tea or oolong tea with wine.

She saw that the young man was very delicate and had a gentle personality, so she couldn't help but get closer, more curious.

Mu Xiang's marriage is unfortunate, and she finally got rid of the useless and useless husband who was drunk and violent, and she has been living alone, at first the neighbors and some housewife friends will actively take her to participate in the homeroom friendship, she also thought that she could have a new marriage, but after participating in it a few times, she gradually realized that she probably couldn't meet the other half of her heart at this age.

And she also has a daughter in middle school, who is in the rebellious period, dreaming of stardom every day, the mother and daughter have been in a cold war for almost two months, and the daughter says every day that she will not come back at a friend's house, she will be worried at first, and in the end she will gradually become numb.

The boredom of stagnant water did not come to an abrupt end until the appearance of young men. Because of the man, she is full of anticipation every day. She began to take the initiative to talk to him, and the two gradually had a topic, also because of the umbrella. But it's just a chat, nothing else. Mu Xiang confided in him, but the man didn't make a judgment, just listened silently, or fiddled with the equipment in his hand. Mu Xiang also felt comfortable, and he felt quite decompressed when he talked to himself.

"Is tomorrow the sports day? First of all, I wish Ling Yuan good results. ”

The man said, Mu Xiang suddenly blushed, and said a little embarrassed, "Did you hear that?"

"Hmm... It's just a door. ”

The rain gradually stopped, but it was still falling gently. Mu Xiang took out a umbrella from under the cabinet and handed it to the man, but the man refused at first, saying that it would be good to use a disposable plastic umbrella. Mu Xiang stuffed the umbrella into his hand and insisted,

"You just use this ......"

So that tomorrow he will definitely come, even if it is to deliver an umbrella. The man smiled and said thank you. Mu Xiang watched the man gradually leave and asked,

"Is the name you told me true before?"

"It's true. The man replied heartily.

"Song Qingzhi?"

"Yes. ”

After the man finished speaking, he picked up his umbrella and disappeared into the depths of the rain alley without looking back.

Mu Xiang looked at the back for a long time before sighing softly.

Lower the roller shutter of the store, turn off the lights and close the store.

The day of the Games was full of sunshine.

Mu Xiang smeared his feet with anti-sunshine, and wore a sun-covering hat with a wide brim, and a sun-proof sports coat before going out.

Through narrow neighborhoods, it was necessary to cross three more intersections and a long ramp road to reach her daughter's school.

When she was waiting for the red light, she began to brush up on Instagram and Fb, and her daughter's animation was updated very frequently, and it was the most suitable to pass the time, but she didn't tell her daughter that she was paying attention to her account, and it was also set as a special concern, and she would be notified of her daughter's movement at the first time.
