In the cramped rented room, the fan at the foot of the bed was blowing, and the wind was still a little stuffy, He Shenge sat cross-legged on the bed with a mat, with a small bed table in front of her, she held the mouse in one hand, and her eyes were staring at the laptop screen.

From time to time, she stopped, reached out and scooped up a cucumber from the basin full of cold water on the ground, and then she didn't cut it, she took a bite directly, and suddenly her mouth was full of cold cucumber juice with some sweet cucumber juice, and she made a crunchy sound while chewing.

She forgot about dinner and kept looking at the Weibo updates of different food bloggers, travel bloggers or food travel bloggers on Sina Weibo, and made a summary based on their Weibo content.

I don't know how long later, she faintly noticed that the light on the other side of the window had dimmed, and when she looked up, many of the windows in the opposite building were pitch black, and she didn't hear a voice from the next room, and she didn't know if the couple in the next room had returned.

It was late at night.

She also noticed that her eyes were a little dry, so she closed the homepages of those well-known bloggers, checked her own homepage, and deleted all the previous Weibo posts that had nothing to do with travel and food.

Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a Weibo she had posted two years ago, which was posted when she first met Gu Li.

She nibbled on a cucumber and thought to herself, Gu Lance had been to the United States for a few days, and during this time, she patronized the matter of moving and changing careers, and inadvertently forgot about Gu Lance, but when she accompanied him to Inner Mongolia on a business trip, she had seen his busy work, and it seemed that he was also so busy that he didn't even have time to say good morning or good night to her.

Maybe after getting along with Gu Lance for a while, she felt that she really missed him a little bit because she hadn't been in touch with him for a few days. In the two years she had been with him, she had never seen something related to him and thought of him.

Unconsciously, she entered the homepage of Gu Li's Weibo, and suddenly, she was a little curious about how he was doing in the United States during this time.

The cover of the Gu Lance Weibo homepage is a pure orange background, and the avatar is a man pulling his luggage, ready to step out of a door, except for the reddish-brown sunset afterglow cast by this door, and the door frame is dark everywhere.

In the past, He Shenge looked at his throw, and his first impression was quite cool, plus Gu Lance's Weibo name is called Wandering Ah Lance, it is estimated that this man who pulls the suitcase is Gu Lance, he loves travel so much, he runs around with his suitcase all day long, and she doesn't think much about it.

Now that he takes a closer look, He Shenge feels that this man's back is a little lonely and lonely at first glance.

She swallowed the chewed cucumber and slid the mouse, no longer staring at the avatar to think about the hidden meaning.

As soon as the homepage slid down, He Shenge's pupils shrank, and he saw a photo of the two of them in Gu Li's latest Weibo.

In the group photo, a man and a woman, the man is Gu Lance, he looks like he hasn't shaved for a few days, his chin has a slight beard, more like a deep uncle who has gone through vicissitudes, wearing a pure black short-sleeved T-shirt printed with colorful hip-hop patterns, his eyes are not on the camera, but looking away, as if he is deliberately avoiding the camera.

It may also be that the timing of the capture is wrong, He Shenge thought.

Her attention shifted to the woman who was alone with the ancient lance.

It's not a girl, it's a woman, and it looks like she's going to be thirty.

She has dark brown hair, the oily hair is all combed to the back of the head, showing a goose egg face well, the skin does not look very white, it is the wheat yellow complexion after often going to the beach to sunbathe, so the complexion is very unusual in today's women who pursue whitening, her makeup is very exquisite, it looks very natural, and she does not deliberately whiten the yellow skin, but it is not annoying at all, she is wearing a gray blazer, a white shirt, a very capable and shrewd working woman, there seems to be nothing special。

However, He Shenge found that the curvature of the corners of this woman's mouth seemed to be smiling or not smiling, with a hint of embarrassment, those eyes were slightly brown, the eyes that only Oriental people have, she was obviously not an American, maybe Chinese.

When she met a fellow countryman in a foreign country, according to the ancient lance she was familiar with, she would not be so restrained, and she would not laugh heartily in the past.

For some reason, out of an intuition, He Shenge didn't even want to nibble on the cucumber in his hand, and was bent on exploring the relationship between Gu Lance and this woman.

The photo is accompanied by a short text, all about meteors, she looked down, the previous Weibo messages were all about meteors, as well as photos of meteors, photos of some famous attractions in the United States, but no one appeared.

Here, however, a woman appeared.

If she didn't care too much about it before, she glanced at it, and since she came back from the trip, she was a little concerned.

Suddenly, she noticed Gu Qi's Weibo @ a person, this person's Weibo is called vagrantwinsu, and the approximate Chinese meaning should be the wanderer Wenshu.

The wandering Lance, the wanderer Wenshu.

The results are clear.

She pursed her lips, clicked the mouse quietly, and entered the woman's Weibo homepage, the cover of the homepage is a night view of the city, which seems ordinary, and this woman's avatar is nothing special about her own ID photo.

She continued to look down.

This woman's Weibo is almost all advertisements, all in English, with some Chinese, Chinese sandwiched with Cantonese, is it also Cantonese?

When she saw that the address below the woman's Weibo was newyork, she quickly reverted back to look at the picture on the cover of the homepage.

After looking at it for a while, she closed the website that searched for food travelers, searched again, and she typed the words "New York, USA".

While looking at the attraction map, she saw an aerial view of the Empire State Building in New York, USA, which was almost identical to the woman's cover image.

Her heart fell in a hurry to the abyss.

On that occasion, on the map she saw at Gu Mao's house, she marked this place in New York with yellow handwriting, and she asked Gu Qi at that time, she thought that Gu Qi didn't hear, could it be that he just didn't want to answer?

Outside, there was the hustle and bustle of the tram speeding by, and she slammed the computer shut, a slight twitch between her eyebrows.

In the middle of the night, the night sky outside the window was inky, the hot wind passed through the streets and alleys, entered the room, and came to his face, He Shenge sat in front of the computer like this, his mind was a mess, and he felt a little upset inexplicably, he had not slept all night last night, and he was physically and mentally exhausted.

Lying down to sleep, the fan next to her was whirring, the heat wave was still rolling and rolling, and her body was sweaty and slimy, which made her even more anxious.

She couldn't sleep.

After a moment of silence, she got up and picked up her bag and went to the Apex Hotel to find Lorraine.

She thought that at this time, if she talked to someone, she might feel more comfortable.

Arriving at the restaurant, Luo Linlin was entertaining the man she saw last night, He Shenge thought about it, this man seemed to be called Mr. Shi.

Luo Lin turned her back to He Shenge and sat opposite Mr. Shi, although she was at work, she was having dinner with him, guessing that it was the customer's hard request, so Luo Lin did not know about He Shenge's arrival.

He Shenge didn't want to disturb her work, so she picked a dimly lit corner alone.

The waiter brought a glass of lemonade and gave her the menu, with a very standard smile on his face: "Today's special drink in the hotel is cherry banquet, do you want to try it?"

"Then have a cup, and this, this, this, all of them, I want all these cakes. ”

The waiter opened his mouth to say something, but still smiled and asked, "Is the lady going to pack and take away?"

"Eat here. ”

As soon as the words fell, He Shenge drooped his head sullenly, staring at the glass in front of him that reflected the few figures in the restaurant, and the playful and lovely piano sound in his ears, but he didn't listen to it.

In fact, it was close to the end of work at this point in time, and there were no more customers in the restaurant, but a group of white-collar workers sitting behind He Shenge were drinking wine and chatting very happily.

In the corner of the restaurant, the dark-skinned barista walked out, kicked the vase next to him, cursed a few words and left angrily, followed by Shen Xiuyan walked out with long slender legs.

His footsteps paused, and at a glance he saw He Shenge sitting in the corner.

She thought she was sitting in a place that was not very conspicuous, but she didn't know that it was the focus of the intersection of light and dark, and between the changes of light and shadow, He Shenge's beautiful face had a glittering light, but today, her face looked a little haggard and tired, her brows were tightly locked, and her expression looked very aggrieved, as if she had encountered something troublesome.

"Mr. Shen. A man in a suit came over and shook hands with Shen Xiuyan: "Next time you come to Shenzhen, Apex will give you free food and accommodation." ”

"Then thank you, Mr. Fu. Shen Xiuyan said lightly.

"If Mr. Shen doesn't dislike it tonight, just stay here, I will book a presidential suite for you." Mr. Fu handed out a black-edged gold card.

"Trouble Mr. Fu. Shen Xiuyan took the room card with an indifferent face.

"Why don't you have another drink?"

Shen Xiuyan glanced at He Shenge a few times, then turned his head to look at Mr. Fu: "Okay." ”

Shen Xiuyan and Mr. Fu sat on the other side of the restaurant, the two of them were sipping Hennessy Extra, chatting about the stock market, wine, and women.

And Shen Xiuyan's eyes were on He Shenge's body, and he observed quietly for a long time.

After drinking a cup of cherry banquet, He Shenge, who was originally full of sorrow, immediately blushed on his little face, and stared at the desserts on the table with a smile.

Mr. Fu noticed that Shen Xiuyan was silently observing the woman sitting in the inconspicuous corner of the restaurant.

The woman's cheeks were flushed, her eyes were misty, and she looked visibly drunk.

He understood that the time had come and he couldn't spoil Mr. Shen's good deeds, so he got up and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, I still have some things, so I'll go first." ”

"Good. ”

Mr. Fu turned around and called Luo Linlin, who was in charge of the restaurant, his eyes stared at Shen Xiuyan and the woman in the corner, showing a weird smile: "Lin, the restaurant will stay all night tonight and will not close." ”

Before long, He Shenge asked for the third cup of cherry feast.

Shen Xiuyan finally walked towards her, he took a deep breath and sat down opposite her.

Like a frightened bird, she raised her head, her expression was a little misty, and her eyes were as bright and dazzling as a galaxy of stars.

He froze and looked at the cherry-red drink, "What kind of wine is this?"

"Cherry. She felt that her body had become very heavy, and she felt so tired that she didn't even have the strength to speak.

Shen Xiuyan sat on the bright side, the whole person was refreshed, He Shenge tilted his head slightly, and after squinting his eyes to see his appearance clearly, he stood up and sobered up.

I didn't expect to meet him again.

She said, "Would you like a drink?" ”

"Is it good?" his eyes were as deep as the sea.

At this moment, He Shenge was wearing a light blue chiffon dress, lined with white and delicate skin, a ponytail that may be tied up at will, next to his cheeks, and under his fair neck, there were fine broken hairs, which looked inconspicuous in the dim light, but Shen Xiuyan looked very carefully.

"Delicious. He Shenge rarely showed a bright smile in front of him, perhaps because she was drunk, and forgot to put on a mask of indifference and detachment in front of Shen Xiuyan.

She happily described: "Look at the color of this wine, it is exquisite, like pink crystals, and when you drink it, your mouth is full of freshness and sweetness, as if you have really eaten a freshly picked cherry." ”

"But what. Her gaze has countless bright starlight: "In her mouth, between her lips and tongue is a rich aroma of wine, very mellow, the wine into the throat, like." ”

She stopped, bent her eyes and smiled: "It's like you men, kissing a charming woman with a faint cherry fragrance on her body." ”

Shen Xiuyan took her wine glass and took a sip, her taste buds could feel the cool sweetness, the refreshing sourness, and the aroma of cherry wine was extremely rich, like the fragrance of flowers lingering on her lips and teeth.

He looked at her, in a trance, somehow, there were clips of the past upside down in his mind, and He Shenge was also very happy with him in the past, and when she smiled, her face, which was not captivating, instantly glowed with dazzling brilliance.

"Isn't it delicious?" asked He Shenge.

He came back to his senses, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose upward: "Hmm." ”

"Since it's delicious, then I'm going to post on Weibo, and I'm going to let him know that I'm drinking a very good wine, but he can't drink it. She smiled and turned on her phone, took pictures, posted on Weibo, and did it in one go.

She also deliberately @古槊 on Weibo, he will definitely see her Weibo, he is merry and happy in the United States, she is still drinking wine and eating delicious cakes in China, and her life is no worse than him!

"Did he bully you?" Shen Xiuyan's face immediately became gloomy, as if swept with the momentum of thunder, and his voice was as cold as a thousand years of ice.

For He Shenge to buy drunk for someone, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, obviously He Shenge still had the previous brilliance in his eyes when he looked at him.

He Shenge's face was red at the moment, compared to the cherry banquet, it was more like a rich and bright red cherry, the snow-white skin was ruddy, and the taste seemed to be more sweet and intoxicating than the cherry banquet.

She looked at Shen Xiuyan, who was not shocked, and the corners of her mouth twitched: "He actually likes other women on Weibo, and he doesn't like me!

"Food?" Shen Xiuyan's gaze was deep, but he looked very calm.

"No matter, I'm going to eat cake. ”

The next moment, she found that except for the cherry banquet, the ice cubes in the other wine glasses had melted, the wine overflowed, and the bottom of the glass was full of water traces, and the hot blueberry raisin egg tarts were cold, without the original freshly baked deliciousness, and in an instant, her smile was gone, and the corners of her mouth were downturned, with endless grievances.

Despite this, she lowered her head in anger and swallowed the cold food, melted snacks, and tasteless wine.

Shen Xiuyan looked at her from the side, his eyes were as deep as the whirlpool of the deep sea, and there was a faint smile on his lips.

In the past, as long as He Shenge was unhappy or angry, she would overeat, she held her stomach at that time and said with a satisfied face: "When you are full, all the nerves in your body are focused on the digestion of the stomach, and then, your brain will not be able to turn, so that you will not think about those meaningless things and meaningless people." ”
