Chapter 2: The Thirtieth Year of the Chinese New Year's Eve

The fireworks solidify in the air, and then disperse, illuminating the dark starry sky, and the noise under the lights can spread the loneliness infinitely, making people lost.

Today is undoubtedly a special day, the Chinese New Year's Eve, whether the year is satisfactory or not, brilliant or lost, this day is the dividing line of everything, and tomorrow is the beginning of a story and a new continuation.

Whether to continue in obscurity or to be earth-shattering, the choice is still in the hands of most people, but most people ignore it.

In the midst of the commotion, two men walked through the snow to a dumpling restaurant that was open 24 hours a day.

This dumpling restaurant, because the owner of the other place did not go home for the New Year, so on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, it was still open, although it gave people a feeling of being full of copper smell, but perhaps he just did not want to guard this dumpling shop alone in the Chinese New Year's Eve.

The glass door that said welcome was opened, and a cold wind came in, and these two men in military coats walked into the dumpling shop, these two people were not bystanders, it was Chen Can and Erlong.

Chen Can, who walked in front, glanced at the empty dumpling restaurant, then walked to the counter and said to the bald boss who greeted him affectionately: "Old Wei, what's the matter?

This bald uncle looked bitter, but the next moment a kind smile appeared on his face, and he muttered: "In this Chinese New Year's Eve, few people come out to eat, let alone such a small place as me." ”

Chen Can took off the cotton hat, beat the snow on it, and said with a disdainful face: "What's the New Year, it's all like a bird for me, fry a few dishes for me, sit down and drink some together." ”

Lao Wei looked at Chen Can like this, a guy who was more like a bastard than a bastard, but he smiled, without any burden and pressure on his smile, he said with a hearty face: "Okay, okay, this time I'll have a treat." ”

Chen Can shook his head directly and said, "Old Wei, you look down on me, don't you? I don't miss your ten or eight yuan, and I will stir-fry the vegetables for me." He said it mercilessly, not because Chen Can was unsympathetic, but because the relationship between him and Lao Wei was already ripe.

Lao Wei was not annoyed, because he knew Chen Can's character too well, and he had always said something, although he was often ruthless, but he knew very well that Chen Can was not bad, and he was not bad in his heart, but he acted like a bad guy more than anyone else.

Lao Wei went to the kitchen to work, while Chen Can and Erlong sat around the small wooden table, and they began to swallow the clouds and spit out the fog together.

"Brother Can, why did you say that Li Banruo suddenly became the consul, is there anything greasy in this?" Erlong said with a sincere face, but when these words reached Chen Can's ears, they changed their taste.

Chen Can frowned, maybe it was because a person like him who could only pretend to be black in his heart couldn't put any sunlight in it at all.

"Do you think that woman will eat soft? Besides, Li Banruo's virtue, even the edge of the little white face can't be touched, it must be Ma Wenrou who sees something that can be used in Li Banruo, after all, the Ninth Master has been reusing Li Banruo back then, and Ma Wenrou is also on the side of the Ninth Master, so he will definitely not treat Li Banruo badly. Chen Can said with a little jealousy on his face, after all, he only got a trace of shares when he got cheap and sold well, and Li Banruo almost didn't do anything, but he suddenly became the focus, which is a bit psychologically unbalanced on anyone's body.

Erlong nodded as if he didn't understand, there was no jealousy on his simple face, but he said with a little awe: "Brother Can, this is not a good thing, if there is no Li Panruo, the black consul of this mansion will be arranged by those eldest young masters." ”

When Chen Can heard Erlong's words, his originally jealous face slowly relaxed, he flicked the ashes of his cigarette, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that this is not a bad thing. ”

On the other side, where the soot bloomed, on the balcony of an ordinary apartment building, two men watched in silence.

"Smoke it. After a long time, the ghost shark took the lead in speaking, and of course he could see that the hands and feet of the douzi who were addicted to smoking were a little unnatural.

Guan Zi was stunned, but finally lit a cigarette, took a deep breath and said, "Master Shark, are you satisfied with your current life?"

Instead of answering directly, the oni shark turned his head to look at the shrub with a gentle smile on his face, an expression that a man with blood on his hands could not make.

Bush looked at the ghost shark's expression in a daze, and already knew the answer in his heart, and finally he nodded silently.

"Why didn't that kid come with Wang Tao?" said the ghost shark, turning his head again and looking at the fireworks in the sky.

"I'm very busy, and now I've just docked with the Dijiu Mansion, and I have a lot of things to do. Bush said.

"Today is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve. The ghost shark said with a bit of solemnity on his face, maybe for a Dousheng small people, today is the most important day.

Bush's expression first froze for a second, and then reacted, indeed, today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, but for him, there is no difference, perhaps the reason why he is addicted to this battle of interests these days, making him forget such an opportunity, which makes him sigh for no reason, he seems to be getting farther and farther away from the ghost.

"Master Shark..."Bush said, but when the words reached his throat, he couldn't speak.

The ghost shark seemed to see the difficulty of the grub, stretched out his big hand and patted the shrub on the shoulder and said: "You don't need to speak, I understand, but don't be too obsessed with this river and lake, then maybe in the end, you won't even be able to find yourself." ”

Bush nodded with a teachable expression.

A huge firework burst into the air at this time, and the woman opened the balcony door, and the bush quickly flicked the cigarette butt into the air.

"Old Xu, Douzi, it's time for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. She said softly, as if she was apologetic for interrupting their conversation.

The ghost shark nodded with a smile, then whispered in Douzi's ear, turned around and walked into the warmth, while Irrigation Zi was stunned in the face of such a severe cold in front of him, and he began to wonder what he was looking for.

For Li Qiuhe, a circle that does not look like a circle, there is a tradition every year, that is, the Chinese New Year's Eve is spent in Zhang Feifei's single apartment, this tradition has lasted for several years, and there is no tendency to be broken, perhaps this is the greatest warmth that these people give to Zhang Feifei, whose parents divorced.

Of course, she also sees it, so she regards this small circle as the most reliable part of her world.

At a happy table, Zhang Feifei and Qin Langlang exchanged a few words from time to time, silently watching all this old Li Qiuhe drinking liquor, and Qiuyue who watched all this with a smile, such a scene, giving people the first feeling that there is no more and no less, one more person is more, and one less person is less.

The Spring Festival Gala was on TV, but several people didn't pay attention to it at all, but despite this, this is also the most harmonious background music, after being full of wine and food, Zhang Feifei, who was a little flushed on her face, lay on the table and said a few drunken words from time to time, while Qin Langlang began to fall asleep, and his amount of alcohol was only half a catty compared to Zhang Feifei.

Qiu Yue glanced at the white watch on her wrist from time to time, taking care of the drunk Zhang Feifei.

Li Qiuhe, who had drunk the most, but was the most sober, of course noticed the small movements in Qiu Yue's hand, got up and said, "Send you back?"

Qiu Yue looked at Zhang Feifei with a relieved expression, and then said, "Stay a little longer." ”

Li Qiuhe had already put on his coat and said, "Fei Fei, you don't know yet, she is not a loser, she is a hedgehog, and her vitality is much more tenacious than you think." ”

Qiu Yue couldn't help but smile when she heard Li Qiuhe's extremely appropriate metaphor, that smile was half a country and a city, but it was enough to capture people's hearts.

Li Qiuhe was a little stupid when he watched such a scene, but fortunately, he had good self-control, and immediately reacted and forcibly moved his eyes elsewhere.

"I'll go back myself, you've drunk too, it's not good. Qiu Yue can be regarded as a compromise, she has no habit of spending the night outside, for her now, she has long passed the usual point of going home, but in order not to spoil the fun, she did not speak.

Li Qiuhe shook his head forcefully and said, "This is not negotiable, I still don't believe it?"

Qiu Yue looked at Li Qiuhe, who had a very resolute attitude, for her, Li Qiuhe had always been that mature and stable existence, and finally she nodded.

In this way, the two left Zhang Feifei's bachelor apartment and came to the underground parking lot together, where Li Qiuhe drove his black Land Cruiser, and Qiuyue sat in the co-pilot, driving towards the suddenly deserted street of the Chinese New Year's Eve.

The two have been silent, Qiu Yue looked out of the car window with concern, and Li Qiuhe, who was a little wooden, couldn't say anything to set off the atmosphere, he was still a little restrained in front of Qiu Yue, and he would not be as careless as in front of Zhang Feifei.

"Do you miss Li Panruo?" driving the car, perhaps because he felt that the atmosphere was too depressing, Li Qiuhe said.

Qiu Yue came back to her senses, her brows furrowed obviously, and at this time Li Qiuhe realized that he had said the wrong thing, but it was too late.

Eventually, Qiu Yue nodded slightly.

Seeing Qiuyue agreeing so readily, Li Qiuhe felt a little more jealous in his heart, but when he thought of that banquet, he felt that he was no longer comparable with Li Panruo, so he muttered in a wrong way: "Actually, I can see that he has you in his heart, but he doesn't want to say it, his identity is too special, the more he likes it, the more he can't speak." ”

Qiuyue listened, she looked at Li Qiuhe, who understood Li Panruo inexplicably, and said with some justification: "Isn't this what he chose?"
