Chapter 33: Extra: The End of the Daylight Moon
act.13
Yiqiē seems to be back to the beginning, devoting himself to his work, and devoting himself to dating a girl who can make him happy. I once met Meng Tiantian when I was shopping with my new girlfriend, I haven't seen her for a year, she has matured a lot, she said that she is really not interested in dancing after graduation, and now she works in a trading company, and left in a hurry after speaking.
It's good to see you goodbye and be friends.
When Lin Dong, the monkey, and the fat man appeared in front of them, everyone looked solemn, I was surprised, and what was even more surprising was that Lin Dong said that Wang Zuoyi was dead. I said buddy, let's make a big joke - and then completely froze.
"During her break, she accepted an invitation from a French television to shoot a documentary in Zimbabwe, where she had a car accident"
Lin Dong was talking about the project in France, and before Lao Wang left, the two met at the airport, but they didn't expect it to be the last meeting. The photographer who was traveling with him said that there was a problem with the car's brakes, "G left with a smile!" ”
Men and carts tumble from the highlands into the rapids of the rainy season......
We went to Wang Zuoyi's home on the lake together, landrover parked in a simple garage, the key was placed in a small hole in the door, and Wang generously said that whoever wants to be close to nature will come over absolutely free of charge.
The furnishings in the house are the same, the white curtains hang from the roof, a few cushions are thrown on the wooden floor, a translucent bone china tea set is placed on the tatami mat facing the lake, and a set of Bose stereos is placed under the glass curtain to enjoy the starry sky - I talked to Lao Wang about whether the Danish B&O or the American brand is better, and she said that people like you must choose Denmark, and I am right.
The winter sun passes obliquely, the lake is quiet and far away, Wang Zuoyi said that it is easy to have a sense of illusion after watching the clouds for a long time...... Her courtyard floats on the water like a plank road leading to the distance, so far away that we don't know.
"Wang Zuoyi broke her promise this time, and originally planned to invite her to participate in the sailing round the world next year, but she agreed, and asked me to prepare a few more national flags before she came back......"
Lin Dong couldn't go on, we were all lost in our memories, life is so short, if we don't see it for a second, we may be separated forever.
The old couple also knew about Wang Zuoyi, my mother said that this child always doesn't stop, so far away in Africa, people can't even see the last one when they leave......
Wang Zuoyi's insurance beneficiaries are her parents, Uncle Wang has aged a lot overnight, he said that Zuoyi came to me when he was in college, I asked her if she had made up the tuition fees, she said that her mother gave it, told me not to give, keep my younger brother to go to school-
"Why didn't I give the money to the child?" He tortured himself over and over again, "Why didn't I give her the money in the first place?" ”
Lao Wang's mother said: "The child sued me for giving money, and you didn't give it for a long time, so you think about your son!" ”
I simply told Wang Zuoyi's property situation and left, I couldn't stand the broken look of him and Zuoyi's mother in the center of remorse, I couldn't stand it.......

At the end of the year, Meng Tiantian was found at the company's cocktail party, she brewed for a long time and said, "Hello", I said okay, it seems that you like to treat me as a stranger. Just as she was about to continue joking, she suddenly had red circles in her eyes and said, "Chuxi, I miss you!" ”
I complied with the beauty's wishes, and after dancing a few dances with my arms in my arms, I reconciled without blame, as if the relationship between the two of us had never been logical and unexplained.
Later, the old man had a cerebral hemorrhage and almost saw Marx, so I had to seriously consider whether to stabilize it. Later, I found out that Meng Tiantian really cared about me, and then I announced the news that I was going to get married.
The monkey said that you think clearly, the entertainment function of marriage is not high, even if you have a wife who is really good for you in the future, you will still find that there are shortcomings, and the pleasure of chatting with fox friends and dog friends is far better than the intimate words of the people around you, you have to understand this, and Lin Dong and I will not stop you from getting married.
I said that this time I can't move and get married, even if it can't entertain me, at least it can entertain my parents, and that's enough.
"You seem to have the idea of going back in style, and the girls around you have become other people's wife candidates!"
The monkey said, "Hey, with the rose, there is a lingering fragrance in your hands!" ”
On her honeymoon, Meng Tiantian chose Europe, and accompanied my new wife to visit fashion stores one by one under the Emanuele promenade on Milan's fashion street, which she kept quite thoroughly.
Walking into a baroque building, with carved domes, beige walls with oil paintings, shelves with vines on all sides, and various perfume bottles on it, the elegant sales lady asked in English if we needed help, and I said to pick up a bottle of perfume for my wife.
When the salesperson introduced me, I noticed a bottle of purple-white perfume that looked like the last quarter moon, and the saleslady said sir, this bottle of perfume is called the moon of day. She let us smell the sample and asked with interest, did you smell anything?
I said no, she said you smell it again, this time there is a sweet fragrance of wild roses swimming, faint, but it doesn't seem to be.
"The occasional pale shadow of the moon during the day – this is where the perfumer was inspired, and that is an indescribable sensation that is difficult to capture and indescribable!"
"Excuse me, I want this perfume"
"Sir, I'm sorry, you have to make an appointment for this perfume, and you have to wait after you get the number!"
"Why?"
"Because it is unique in the world, it is no longer launched once it is produced, unlike the midnight flight, the chief designer of this fragrance ......"
I felt my eyes glaze out, and the salesperson asked with concern, "Sir!?" ”
The lilac bottle is carved with strange letters, and rosebuds surround it - "What does this represent?" ”
"oflife", the saleswoman said in French and then again in English.
In the name of life......
The pigeons on the square rested on the shoulders of tourists, and Meng Tiantian said Chu Xi, how beautiful you look.
"Chuxi, I love you!"
My wife says she loves me loudly, but why is my heart as desolate as a desert?.

Chu Xi spoke ramblingly, and was silent for a long time.
Shu Neem looked at this digital media upstart, and his heart was overflowing with sadness, someone has received love that is as quiet as the sea but does not know it, fortunate or unlucky?
"Am I a jerk?" , Chu Xi raised his face from the palm of his hand, muttered with red eyes, "We grew up together, and then she went to the United States, I went to Hong Kong, after a long time, we met again, she is still her, I am no longer me, relying on her small achievements to become frivolous, seeing that there is a bottleneck in her work, she is secretly proud, studying abroad to gild, working in a foreign luxury brand company, no matter how loud the title is, isn't it a senior worker?" ”
Chu Xi rubbed his face fiercely, his expression distorted, "In the end, I underestimated her, since she moved into the luxury brand to launch her first perfume, 16 perfumes have been released so far, with cumulative sales of more than 1 billion US dollars." Wang Zuoyi will succeed no matter what she does, so she needs my sympathy? I said to her like a savior, you follow me, I will never treat you badly, the funny thing is that my self-confidence is still fulfilled by Wang Zuoyi! Where the did I get the face to pity her? ”
Shu was not sure if he would want to know about it from someone else's mouth if it was himself.
Chu Xi drooped his head and said, "The spirit of the times can be favored by dark material capital, all thanks to Wang Zuoyi's matchmaking and putting it on the table with love and neighbors, Gao Min may not choose the spirit of the times."
Although I heard a little wind from Qiao Hang, it is said that Gao Min has a blue eye for Ai Bilin, but he really wants to PK with the spirit of the times, and Aibilin is also a companion. The DMC's quantitative research department is not idle, a small scale, one has just started, and those with eyes know to choose one, or simply merge a strong alliance, she is destined to be Chu Xi's east wind and send him straight to the clouds.
Gao Min is very good at playing thick black, he released kindness to Shu Neem, it is nothing more than a request for her, at this stage, love is next to her need her, she still has use value.
Therefore, dark matter capital prefers words like love and neighbors, listen to it, and don't take it seriously.
Seeing that competitors are battered, I will feel refreshed, but what is the feeling of suffocation and sourness in my chest, Shu Neem wanted to say several times, that's right, love is not worse than the spirit of the times, and our online trading platform is super good. But in the end, I swallowed it and didn't say it, the defeat is decided, what's the use of taking advantage of it verbally?
Shu Neem generously told Chu Xi about his analysis, and said at the end: "Connections are resources, luck is ability, Mr. Chu is better than me in both of these things, I really envy you for having a friend like Wang Zuoyi who runs out for you!" ”
Chu Xi pulled her hair painfully, "Yes, she has done a lot for me, how do I treat her as a friend, because of emotional problems, I complained that she was hiding something from me, and the few meetings after the reunion were all about myself, I never asked what troubles she had in her work and life, what kind of friend I am!" ”
Shu Wei frowned, didn't Chu Xi notice Wang Zuoyi's special feelings for him at all? Or did she think about it, Wang Zuoyi only regarded Chu Xi as a friend from beginning to end?
After Chu Xi left, Gao Min walked in, his expression was faint, but the mockery in his eyes was undisguised, "Who should I be, there is a circle of holy light shining above his head, as soon as he gets 50 million US dollars, can he be comforted by you, an unlucky person who can't get money?" And went into my VIP room and said behind someone's back? ”
Does your family know that the mouth is so poisonous?
"Mr. Gao, what do you mean, as if I was doing something bad secretly, Mr. Chu and I are talking very openly, okay? We have turned hostility into friendship, which is conducive to carrying out work, isn't it exactly what you are happy to see? ”
"Alas, 'we' have all used it, eldest sister, you're too familiar, right?"
"Mr. Gao, don't add drama to me without authorization, I don't recognize the brain supplement. Of course, I, Shu, am kind to others, how can it be like you will sprinkle salt on people's wounds with a blow to your heart and don't expect Chu Xi to accept her affection, why do you bother to do this? ”
Gao Min sneered, "Why do good deeds without leaving a name?" There aren't many people who care about Zoey, Chu Xi is one, sue him, whether he is grateful or missed, at least he will put Zoey in his heart and never forget it"
"G's affection for Chusse is unrequited"
"No return, are you sure?"
No, Shu Neem couldn't be sure if G had also expected Chu Xi, her love was quiet and passive, like a dark river hidden under the surface, who could tell whether it was turbulent or calm.
"G loves Chusse deeply?"
Gao Min nodded, "She dragged her sick body for 11 hours to see me for Chu Xi's business...... If that's not love, then I really don't know what love looks like."
The man he loves has something else in his heart, and he never crosses the line when he stands in the position of a friend, and it is not easy to think about it, he has to be more self-contained and depressed to watch the women around him come and go as if nothing happened.
After Shu Neem and Chu Xi got acquainted, together with his friends, they also got to know a fat man, a fat man, a monkey shrewd, and Lin Dong a yuppie.
Lin Dong invested in a wine club called gaashes in the city, and the wine lover Shu Neem occasionally went to sit down upon invitation.
Chu Xi called Shu Neem and said that Lin Dong had a batch of good wine there, invited friends to taste it, and asked her if she was going.
Go, of course you have to go, Lin Dong's collection of wine is not just good wine, it must be the kind of famous wine that is so expensive that it smacks your tongue.
The wrought-iron gate behind the camphor tree isolates the hustle and bustle of the city, and inside the door is the gaashes in a secluded corner of the street. Lin Dong stood in front of the statue of Dionysus to greet them, and as soon as he looked at them, he said, "Let's go, I'll show you the wine I photographed in Baolong, 45-year-old Mouton, 6 bottles!" And 12 bottles of '82 Lafite! ”
Gaashes is a small French-style bungalow, the old Shanghai situation is turbulent, the original owner for safety reasons, secretly built an air-raid shelter to avoid artillery fire, now by the forest Dong transformed into an underground wine cellar. As soon as the person entered, the shade was cool, and the rich aroma of wine hit in the dark. Lin Dong pressed the switch, the cold light source on the wall turned on, and the circular solid wood wine shelves displayed treasured wines.
Lin Dong poured a glass of red wine for one of them, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that the 61-year-old Latour hasn't arrived yet."
When the wine was drunk, Lin Dong took out a necklace from his pocket and handed it to Chu Xi.
Chu Xi took it in his hand and looked left and right, his fingers were pressed somewhere, the pendant snapped open, and there was a small photo inside.
Shu Neem looked closer, and the photo showed a girl in a school uniform and a young man in white clothes and black pants, smiling happily at a carefree age.
"What is this?"
"Lao Wang's relics, when he died, he held it in his hand, and the Frenchman who traveled with her gave it to me, and asked me to pass it on to the man in the photo, you just got married a while ago, I didn't mention it, but I think you should know...... Lao Wang ...... to you"
Lin Dong couldn't go on, Chu Xi's hands trembled badly, "I have to go up and smoke a cigarette", he turned around and left, staggering.
Chu Xi leaned against the railing and swallowed the clouds, his hand clenched the necklace, he threw the cigarette butt off the terrace, the unburned ashes were like lonely eyes in the dark, his heart beat violently under the night sky, as if he was about to break free of something, where did the little girl who said to him brother wait for me, where did she go?
The youth that can't be returned, and where can we go when we were young, there is a kind of person we can forget but can't lose. Shu Neem knew that Chu Xi was very sad, and everything in his memory was fine, but that person was no longer there.
One day, Shu Neem inadvertently looked up and saw the hazy moon hanging in the sky, next to the sun, the faint last quarter moon reminded her of G's secret and wordless love.
Chu Xi, do you see, does the pale moon shadow remind you of her, that girl named Wang Zuoyi.
