We were on the other side of the river on the bustling Yuzhong Peninsula, where the high spotlights shone on the whole city in all directions, and the Ambilight on the North Shore Road on the other side of the river seemed to reflect another city.

I stared at the reflected neon lights on the river, and lost my mind.

In a trance, Zhao Qingqing suddenly asked me, "Do you really want to know?"

I sobered up, looked up at her and said, "I really want to know." ”

"Okay! Sing me a song, and I'll tell you when I'm satisfied. ”

"Okay, whatever you want to hear, I'll sing it to you. I said without hesitation.

She looked at the bouquet of roses next to her, and said to me, "Just sing 'Rose', right?"

"Is it Erbai's "Rose"?"

She nodded, sat down quietly, and looked at me with a serious expression.

I don't just open my mouth to sing, I also need to be emotional, but I think it's the right time because everything around me makes me feel comfortable.

I stood up again, took a deep breath, closed my eyes, felt everything around me, and slowly sang:

You said you wanted to buy a house by the sea and live there with your lovely Chow Chow.

You'll be the proprietress of a mood grocery store, selling your favorite things according to your mood.

Life is becoming more and more depressing, and you are becoming less and less like yourself, standing alone in the wind of sorrow.

Where are you, Rose, you said that the people you loved have all gone.

Don't deceive yourself, you're just hiding deeper.

Roses where you are, you always like things that you can't grasp.

Please don't cry, we are all left with a bunch of memories woven from youth.

……

Because I had been immersed in the song, and I hadn't opened my eyes, and after I had finished the song, I heard a small cry coming from around me.

I lowered my head and found that Zhao Qingqing beside me had her head down, and her whole body was trembling with her sobbing.

I immediately squatted down, looked at her helplessly, and said, "Hey, why are you still crying?"

"You don't care, I just want to cry. ”

That's not what I was trying to do, so I laughed and said, "You're so happy with my singing, aren't you? So you can tell me where it is?"

"Who said I was moved by you? I think you sing so badly, how can you be so ugly. ”

Me: "......"

"Don't talk about it, drink a bar! It's really hard to hear. She raised her hand to wipe away her tears, grabbed the bottle and began to drink.

I didn't like to get up, so I said loudly, "Hey, why don't you talk count? Say you'll tell me when I'm done singing!"

"I'll tell you when I'm satisfied, I'm not satisfied!" she said confidently.

"You, you're just a liar! I can't sing badly, so many people say that I sing well, only you say it's ugly, how can it be?"

She giggled, "Looks like you've been deceived! Who told you you sang well? It's really hard to listen to yourself and you don't know?"

"Scoundrel!" I was a little angry, and I didn't know how to refute her, and I knew that she had deliberately not told me.

"Okay! I'll tell you when you accompany me to Xiamen next week, and I'll go with you. ”

"I don't want to talk to the leper dog!" I said, jumping off the reef and walking towards the bushes beside me.

"Hey, why are you going? you haven't finished your drink yet?" she immediately called out to me.

"Drink it yourself! I don't drink it from the leper dog. ”

"Stingy, you're so angry, you're a man, can you be generous?" she seemed to really think I was leaving, so she jumped down from the reef and followed me.

I turned back to her and yelled, "What are you doing with me? I'm going to pee!"

"Ahh......h

"Who's going to be with you......!"

I really didn't expect her to really start to unravel the bushes next to her, and the surroundings were quiet, so that I heard the "rustling" sound all of them.

I quickly solved it, then ran back to the reef and sat down, then took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and put it in my mouth, looking at the opposite side of the Yangtze River in distraction, the rows of neon lights kept flashing, but there was such a corner, even the neon lights could not be illuminated, whenever the light flashed to that side, it was like a ping-pong ball, and flashed in the other direction in an instant.

I feel like I'm going to die because of my obsessive-compulsive disorder!

I don't know when, Zhao Qingqing has already returned to me, she grabbed the beer and started drinking.

She stared at the other side of the river in the same distraction as I did, maybe we looked at different places, but I'm sure she had something on her mind, too.

Neither of us spoke, and in the silence that seemed to have been agreed, she suddenly grabbed my arm and then leaned on my shoulder.

I had a very nasty feeling at first, but then I had a sense of solidity, and I couldn't tell why I felt this way.

It was like I was standing alone in a pouring rain and suddenly someone held up an umbrella for me from behind me.

Subtly, I also leaned towards her in the next life......

Maybe, I said maybe.

In this city, we are all lonely, at this moment we may be two veritable patients, while drifting, chasing each other's temperature, maybe we will fall to the ground, is the moment we wake up from a dream.

……

I don't know how long it took to say this, Zhao Qingqing suddenly whispered to me, "I'll tell you a secret." ”

Originally, the feeling of trance just now was quite good, but because of her words, I immediately pushed her away from me.

She didn't insist on sticking it anymore, but continued to say to me: "Believe it or not, I know Song Qingyi, and I am still very good friends with her. ”

I felt a pang in my heart, and immediately turned my head to look at her, and I didn't know what to say, so I just looked at her in such a complicated way.

She raised her hand and brushed her hair into strands, suddenly smiled very sadly, turned her face to look at the other side of the river, and suddenly said very calmly: "Maybe you will feel very strange, how can I appear in your life? If it weren't for her, I wouldn't know you at all." ”

"Y-What do you mean by that?" I said, suddenly as if I realized something, and stared at her intensely.

She glanced back at me, then avoided my gaze, and the wind blew unscrupulously around us, and then time seemed to stand still, everything around seemed to stand still, only the distant flickering neon lights were still breathing......
