Chapter 108: The Old Middle-Aged Man
.
"Gutβ" The middle-aged man smiled.
"Guter Junge" he narrowed, his pupils were revealing two pale grayish blues, and he sighed: "Ich verstehe......"
Bai An looked dazed, he could only roughly hear that the other party was speaking German.
As for what it means......
Young Master Bai has not explored the German language in depth, and it is really difficult for him to translate it specifically.
But from the other party's expression, interpret -
It's not so much a sigh as a sincere admiration with memories.
I didn't learn German, but I learned micro-expressions.
Bai An softened his expression and pursed his mouth, the corners of his mouth were subtle but unstoppable.
No matter what kind of language it is, friendliness and identification are always pleasant.
Then, Bai An suddenly reacted, and his previous actions were too aggressive.
Childish, idiotic, not sober.
There is really nothing wrong with what people say.
It's no wonder that he is now a white-skinned and yellow-hearted snow-skinned lotus paste egg yolk mooncake......
My heart suddenly became depressed.
His skin is now white and thin, and a piece of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.
Surprisingly, the man showed the same chagrin.
He apologized very sincerely to the child who was more than 30 years younger than him, and even his body language was full of apologies: "I'm sorry, I said my mother tongue by myself, which is very rude." β
Without the slightest reluctance, he looked even more ashamed than he was.
Bai An opened his mouth, but stopped talking.
"I meant before β you're good. The compliment, not greasy, was as sincere as the look in his eyes: "As good as the country you love so much." β
His tone is European playful and exaggerated, but it is not embarrassing or offensive.
This kind of exchanging blowing atmosphere is just right, and it makes people feel very comfortable......
Artificial cushioning under high level, limbs, expressions, eyes, voice, speaking speed, word choice and sentence formation...... Every detail is appropriate, as if tailor-made clothing, giving people a delicate and flowing sense of comfort.
and, in the face of the teacher's appreciation, the satisfaction of the teacher.
If it's an ordinary person, leave it here.
It is estimated that he has been praised so much that he will only touch his head and "hey, hey, hey......" and smirk.
However, Bai An just stopped.
He has a lot of knowledge and a very iron head.
Just feel relaxed.
At the same time, it creates a sense of separation similar to alienation.
The temperament of this German gentleman has always been pure and harmless, stable and warm as stagnant water.
This made him vaguely aware of some dissonance - after all, anything too perfect would make people feel unreal fear.
Bai An shook his head, temporarily relegated his intuition to an illusion, and swept it aside.
"You have won the award...... Young Master Bai replied with the same sincere thanks and praise, and it was a wave of routine business praise.
It's not a real child.
In my last life, I was a twenty-six social person, and reaching out not to hit a smiling person is the basic unspoken rule of personnel communication.
Vote for me with a peach, and repay it with Qiong Yao.
What's more, I am in the etiquette learning stage, and it is really ...... to be able to encounter such a textbook-like "model" sparring There is no time to lose.
Even if there is no nutritious greeting, the middle-aged gentleman also shows a posture of listening carefully.
It's just that his eyes, from focused, diffuse
He closed the crossed fingers and slowly parted, his fingers slid to the cuffs, and subconsciously twisted and rubbed the old copper cufflinks.
His eyes were in a trance for a moment, like a flickering candlelight, as if he was nostalgic.
"Wirklich so ......" seems to be an endless murmur, gently drifting in the air, and there is no trace of the swarm.
The man's expression was a little strange, as if he was indulging in a rich wine, in a trance, and touched a beautiful temperature.
"What?" Bai An frowned, "like...... What?"
The voice was so soft that he could only hear a faint pronunciation like "like...".
Like what?
Resemble...... Who?
In the true meaning, it was just rightly bumped into.
The other party seemed to wake up from a dream, and came back to his senses abruptly, and then bowed his head apologetically to the boy in front of him, once again showing his excellent upbringing.
This undoubtedly makes people's hearts even more confusing.
He felt a strange atmosphere again.
- This time it's even more intense.
What factors make this scene completely inconsistent, and this disobedience magnifies the details, making Bai Anmeng discover.
This man is too mild-
is not like the middle-aged man who still has the afterglow and the peak of his career, but is like a drooping old man whose bones and blood have turned into ashes, and has been sharpened by the years.
However, in front of him, he was not a real old man.
This person is more like a hedgehog that has plucked out his thorny body with his own hands, and all that is presented to the whole world is the softness that cannot give people any threat.
Bai An hesitated for a moment, but the growing curiosity and overly safe atmosphere made him ask, "Did you say anything else just now?"
Originally, when interacting with people, the most taboo thing is to talk about it in a shallow way.
"You're really like her......" the other man sighed, and smiled, his gaze softened even more, revealing a sense of affection.
He explained it calmly: "My wife is also of Chinese and British blood, and loves and admires this country as much as you do. β
"Your personalities are also somewhat similar. β
Bai An suddenly realized where the strange sense of peacekeeping in the middle-aged man came from.
Although it's just speculation......
He was describing his wife, whom he should love dearly, and that description should be pleasant and warm.
The man's expression and language are indeed described in this way.
But those eyes .......
Distinct nothingness is free, covered with dust.
It was like a backwater, the deepest melancholy.
It is as if there is only a ruin left in the chest, no one has visited in the long desolation, and all the glory and past have been lost in the years of suffering, warmth, restraint, and the tragedy of old age.
The last skeleton is nothing more than a crumbling support for memories and habits.
β~βͺ~β«~β
Bai An: "!"
In the empty room, I suddenly remembered music.
The loud, clear and soft tone simply broke the frozen atmosphere and startled the two of them.
Immediately, they realized that it was time to go.
It's the closing music that's playingβ
Whatever the role, it's time to leave.
The middle-aged man laughed, a rare little cheerful.
"I think we got along very well, and I wonder if we can exchange names. β
"William Guderian. He looked into the boy's eyes and gently recounted his name: "This is my name, child, can I know your name?"
"My pleasure. "Bai Ann has his own name
The other party nodded, and the two sides said goodbye peacefully.
In the end, Bai An didn't need to say a word more.
The details have been told to him, and the story of the middle-aged man and his wife probably does not end well.
The night in Gangnam is cool and there are few pedestrians.
He spared the delicate but cold path, and then entered the lights of Yan Shan, walked across the seemingly long endless overpass, and suddenly missed the barbecue stand in his previous life.
Then I remembered the backs of middle-aged people who met in Pingshui.
Bai An abruptly recalled a passage he had read in a certain music software in his previous life.
The word "loneliness", taken apart, has children, melons and fruits, animals, mosquitoes and flies, which is enough to support the mouth of an alley in a midsummer evening, full of human flavor. On a summer evening, you look at the flying insects buzzing in the air, the dogs not far away wagging their tails through the alleys, and you hold the remaining half of the watermelon in your hand, and suddenly feel as if half a life has passed, and it seems that only half a minute has passed.
