Chapter 52: The Meaning of Solitude
Qin Mu sent me back to Guandu Ancient Town, I walked through the winding bluestone road back, and saw "Bubu" lying in front of Lao Zhou's bar door napping, the windows and doors of the bar were open, Lao Zhou was standing in front of the window with a drawing board and painting, there was a bottle of beer on the table, the canvas was the outline of a woman, her facial features were blurred, but I could vaguely feel that the woman on the picture was a woman sketching a bust.
I took a cup, picked up Lao Zhou's beer, poured myself half a glass, stood by the canvas and said, "She must have hurt you." ”
Lao Zhou stopped his pen, looked at it and asked, "Do you know who I painted?"
I looked around for a week and said to Lao Zhou: "I think that all the portraits in this room are her, if she didn't hurt you deeply, how could you remember it so deeply?"
Lao Zhou picked up the wine bottle, touched it with me and said excitedly: "Bosom friend is hard to find, so many friends only you can see, the woman under my brush, she is the only one, but you also said a little wrong, she didn't hurt me deeply, respectful bosom friend, cheers." ”
I touched Lao Zhou, raised my neck and drank the wine in the cup, Lao Zhou sighed and said: "I hate the taste of wine, but I love the feeling of being drunk! Every time I am slightly drunk, I seem to be able to see her passing by in the sea of people, drinking is a kind of emotional catharsis, and occasionally getting drunk is a kind of spiritual decompression." ”
I smiled bitterly and said to Lao Zhou: "Actually, when a person drinks alone, what he falls in love with is not wine, but the moment he picks up the wine glass, and integrates his heart into the wine little by little, and drinks not only wine, but also some sadness, some memories, some thoughts and some stories that cannot be told to others, and integrate pleasant and unpleasant things into the wine, drink it, and release his mind in a slightly drunk state, which is the meaning of a person's drinking." ”
Lao Zhou is a lover, his eyes flashed with excitement, he took the bottle and poured me a little more wine, patted me on the shoulder and said to me: "Brother, you can drink whatever you want, you can open whichever you want, it's free!"
Even if Lao Zhou really said so, I didn't dare to touch his valuable Wuliangye, Moutai or something, at most, I would drink a bottle and brave the world.
Lying on the bed upstairs, I was still a little nervous, Qin Mu had already determined that the car accident had something to do with me, and I was a little stupid, if I wanted to say "play with my heart" and "observe words and looks", maybe ten of them may not be as good as one Qin Mu, she was born to do this.
Although Qin Mu didn't force me to admit anything, this incident has always made people worry, after all, hitting someone to death is not a joke, and it is deliberately killing someone - intentional homicide!
The mobile phone next to me rang, I glanced at the screen, it was Jing Yao calling, hesitated for a moment but answered.
Jing Yao asked on the other side of the phone, "What are you busy with?" I want to meet with you in the evening and talk about something. ”
I lay on the bed and looked at the sky guard and asked lazily, "What do you want to talk to me about tonight?"
"Help!" Jing Yao said decisively, "I have some things on my hands that I can't handle by myself, and I need your help." ”
"Oh. I answered, "Say what you say, I will not shirk what I can do." ”
"Let's meet and talk, I can't tell you clearly on the phone. ”
"Tonight, you come to the bar street in Guandu Ancient Town, I am waiting for you at the bar, and I will send you the address on WeChat in a while. ”
"See you at night, it may be me alone, or it may be me and Cheng Jia coming together. After speaking, Jing Yao hung up the phone.
I hung up the phone and stared at the screen of my phone for a minute, a little bit I didn't want to see Jing Yao, or I didn't really want to see Cheng Jia! I always felt that I was no longer in the same circle with them, but I couldn't find a reason to refuse Jing Yao, and finally told Jing Yao the positioning method of the bar and the name of the bar.
In order to avoid the embarrassment of meeting, I called Lu Yuxin, and the phone rang several times before it was answered, and the first thing I answered was "I'm in a meeting, if there's nothing important, I'll call you later, right?"
"It's important. ”
"Then you ...... say"
"I'll call you back when the meeting is over. ”
Lu Yuxin didn't talk nonsense on the other side of the phone, all I heard was the "beep" sound on the phone. How busy is she? Can't she say "bye-bye"? Lost!
At half past five, Lu Yuxin's phone called, she was very polite to anyone, and I was no exception, she apologized and said, "I'm sorry, I was in a meeting in the afternoon, and I just called you as soon as the meeting ended." ”
This is the way a strong woman in the workplace speaks, obviously she is not polite to hang up the phone, but when she explains, you can't find an excuse to blame her, people say that they are too busy, and they will call you quickly after the meeting, what else do you have to complain about?
I originally had something to ask Lu Yuxin, so naturally I didn't dare to blame her, so I said politely: "It's okay, I'm very happy that you can call me back, please say 'bye-bye' next time before you hang up the phone." ”
"Oh. Lu Yuxin asked, "Are you just going to tell me about this?"
"Of course not. I said to Lu Yuxin: "That day, you asked me to understand Mo Shaojie, I heard what it meant, and I will also take the time to chat with Mo Shaojie and give him some hints, after all, some words are too straightforward and not good." ”
"Well, thank you. Lu Yuxin spoke to me without any tone, as if she was completing a task.
"That ......" I thought in my mind, how can I be like Lu Yuxin, put the other party together before saying my needs, just like she spoke, always with skill, but I was too simple, not too good at chatting with "deep meaning", and paused for a long time before saying to Lu Yuxin: "Actually, Mo Shaojie is a heinous bastard, and the background is very complicated, if he knows...... Forehead...... It's a car accident...... It may not work against you. ”
Lu Yuxin asked on the other side of the phone, "What do you mean...... Mo Shaojie might kill someone? That person is me? Are you threatening me?"
"No, no, no......" I hurriedly said: "I don't mean that, I mean, even if Mo Shaojie is a big bastard, he also has relatives, I am his relatives, he will still listen to my words, you don't have to worry, I will protect you." ”
"No need!" After speaking, Lu Yuxin hung up the phone.
I lay on the bed and looked at the phone screen like a fool, and I asked myself: What did I say? Will I be able to chat? At this moment, I almost doubted whether there was something wrong with my IQ! Quickly dialed Lu Yuxin's phone again......
