After a busy day, Shu Nee wanted to ask Gao Min to go down to the restaurant to have a good meal to thank him for his tireless efforts to help her run errands and sweep the goods.

Who knew that Gao Min insisted on carrying forward the style to the end, saying that he would not let Shu Neem break the bank, not counting driving home, and cooking with his own hands to entertain her, a temporary tenant.

The dinner was delicious, the host was very welcoming, Shu Neem was at home, and she still lived in the exclusive "palace" of the ladies who exhibited the antique crown, even if she had been in close contact with this mansion overnight, she still couldn't help but have red eyes when she saw it, and the furnishings in the house were really beautiful bubbling, and the last time she lay on the bed after the shower and counted the sheep hypnosis, after all, she was a little uncomfortable living in someone else's house.

Once born and twice cooked, this time Shu Neem did not treat herself as an outsider, she explored around like a treasure hunt, and inadvertently pushed open a secret door inlaid with silver decorative strips, behind the door is a bathroom no smaller than the master bedroom, if you don't know that the owner of the house is a minimalist who likes black, white and gray, she will simply misunderstand him for a crazy pink control, because there are pink elements everywhere in the eye, the walls are all decorated with pink rose marble, and the scattered light bulbs and Moroccan carved makeup mirrors are reflected, The warm yellow light shines on the lighter Turkish cream marble vanity, and the visual effect is extremely beautiful.

The voice-activated wall lamp is lit up one after another to chase the footsteps of neem, the golden transparent veil hangs from the dome painted with ancient Greek gods, and a cat's foot bathtub studded with crystals, scented candles and red wine are placed on the round table next to it, and a few bubble bath bombs are contained in the shells, macaron-colored, dreamy and sweet, very cute.

Shu Neem felt that if he didn't untie his clothes and jump into the pompous bathtub to take a dip at the moment, he would be too sorry for himself.

I couldn't resist the temptation...... With a sigh, Shu Neem threw off the clothes on his body, completely liberated himself, lay in the bathtub, drank red wine and watched the bubble bombs slowly dissolve, rendering the crystal clear water into a colorful peach pink, and the air became rich and fragrant, which was wonderful!

"If you continue to take a bath, something will happen"

A chuckle woke Shu Neem from her slumber, and she sat up on the edge of the tub, only to remember that it was someone else's house.

Gao Min stood in the corridor outside a wall, listened carefully, there was no movement in the room, and couldn't help but remind loudly, "You have been taking this bath for half an hour, and a long time is not good for your body!" ”

Shu Mei stepped out of the bathtub, put on a bath towel, and said to the wall: "Don't worry, I won't faint!" ”

Gao Min breathed a sigh of relief, "You go back to the bedroom, there are standing clothes in the closet, they are all new, you don't have to mind"

"I don't mind, I'm afraid that the female guests in the future will mind"

"The private apartment doesn't accept outsiders, so there's no 'later' kind of situation. You are my friend, not a guest, the clothes in the closet are all prepared for you, you can wear them with peace of mind! ”

Shu Neem stopped because of Gao Min's words, but quickly relieved, thank you buddy, and repeatedly emphasized that it was just a friend, otherwise it would be difficult for her to guarantee that she would not think about it. Sometimes self-inflicted amorous is also a disease, commonly known as paranoia, and you must be vigilant!

Back in the bedroom, Shu Neem opened the wardrobe and saw a cabinet full of clothes, although she took off the tag, it did not prevent her from recognizing these new seasonal products that had just walked off the catwalk, and there were a few suits that were not available in the domestic counter.

Fortunately, Gao Min affirmed her position early in the morning and insisted on her friend's line unwaveringly, if not, she would probably be moved by her heart.

Since long live friendship, don't give misunderstanding a chance, and treat it as a generous gift from a friend.

Gao Min said that his ability and character determine the mode of his non-gentleman's friendship with friends.

The fact is that he is indeed good to his friends, such as helping James, the owner of the restaurant on the cloud, take care of his girlfriend, and looking at G's face to invest in the zeitgeist of Chuxi, all of which are generous spends. As for being considerate and thoughtful to her, it can be seen that his way of making friends has always been like this, and it is by no means out of selfishness or the love of men and women.

So don't misinterpret friendship, narcissistically think that people are interesting to you, and then make jokes and disgrace yourself.

Thinking about it this way, Shu Neem was completely calm, and picked out a set of striped silk satin pajamas to wear, which was slippery and close to the touch of the skin, which was very in line with her requirements for the quality of pajamas.

"You're going to bed?" , Gao Min stood outside the door and asked hesitantly, he wanted to sit with her for a while, Tiannan Haibei could say whatever he wanted, and he was afraid of getting a positive answer, so he couldn't help but feel apprehensive.

Shu Neem has no talent in falling in love, and she has some real skills in figuring out people's hearts, she immediately heard that Gao Min was trying to chatter, if he didn't have any intention, then he would definitely say that you should rest, get up early tomorrow or something.

However, she squinted for a while while in the bath, she was really not sleepy, picked up a towel and wiped her hair and opened the door, "My hair is still wet, don't be in a hurry to sleep!" ”

Gao Min had a look of joy on his face, he really wanted to thank Shu Nee for her understanding, obviously tired for a day, he should have let her rest early, but he still wanted to stay with her for a while.

Because of the embarrassment, the well-organized language is also out of rhythm, "Uh, hair...... Do you want to blow dry? ”

"Let's air dry naturally, the temperature in your house is quite high, let's find some pastime?" , Shu Neem saw that Gao Min was embarrassed and helped him find the bottom of the steps.

"How about watching a movie, I made a supper, we can eat and watch it at the same time, at least we won't be bored", when it came to preparations, Gao Min was calm again.

"Felt like I had just had dinner"

"Just a few side dishes with wine, very light and not high in calories"

"Let's go, then"

Shu Neem is as good as a stream, and Gao Min smiled.

Needless to say, Gao Min's private audio-visual room looks rich and tasteful, the first-class sofa is very comfortable to sit on, and Shu Neem has experienced several functions, and I think it's not bad, and I secretly want to go back and buy one to put in the living room, and I will enjoy watching TV more in the future.

There are a lot of snacks for watching movies, popcorn and cola, children's favorites. There are also lobster scallop parmesan sticks on the coffee table, and white wine and tulip glasses on the tray.

"What kind of movie would you like to see, the one that's being released, or the old one?" , from Shu Neem's expression, it can be roughly judged that she is very satisfied, Gao Min took advantage of her good mood and asked her about her interest in watching the movie.

"Forget the brain-burning, you decide the rest, as long as you don't have to think about the movie!" , Shu Neem poured himself a glass of wine, tasted it and said.

She doesn't want to watch movies, she wants to eat and drink!

"How about we watch a movie with a soothing plot, a story about book lovers, based on a true story, called 84 Charing Cross Street, an old movie from the late eighties, do you think it?" , Gao Min consulted Shu Neem's opinion.

"I've probably heard of it, the original book seems to be a collection of letters, when I borrowed books in the library, I glanced at it", Shu Neem also had literature and art for a while when he went to college, for poor students, reading can meet the spiritual needs, and at the same time has entertainment functions, and the cost is not large, quite cost-effective!

"Your favorite book is The Catcher in the Rye, Endless Adolescence, as you made the impression on me!" , Gao Min couldn't help but tease, "So I guess you probably don't like this slow-paced movie I recommend"

Shu Melia protested, "Are you taking the opportunity to sarcastically mock my temperament?" To be serious, it's true that I love the catcher in the Rye, the main thing is that the protagonist Holden has a temper with me, and I also like other books, especially the ones with strong narratives, such as Alexandre Dumas and Mérimée in France, and Turgenev in Russia, I love to read their novels, and I like Chinese novels even more, and I never get tired of reading Journey to the West! Tell me about this movie, maybe I like it."

"This film tells the story of a man and a woman who exchange letters across the ocean"

"Finished?" , Shu Neem's jaw fell, this is too concise, right, "Is it romance?" She asked, unrelentingly.

Gao Min shook his head, "No, the hero and heroine have never met in their lives"

"So it's a pen pal", Shu Melia said to himself, "I haven't seen it in my life, and the letters are connected, it's a pity to think about it!" ”

"It sums it up well, and although the ending is regrettable, it is also beautiful. How's it going, are you interested in 84 Charing Cross? ”

It's better to be interested in Sherlock Holmes on Baker Street—but let's not tell the truth, and Souzer nodded, indicating that he was willing to take a look.

The lights dimmed, and the old movie slowly kicked off.

Shu Neem wanted to hold a bucket of popcorn to eat, but after thinking about it, watching lyrical movies, crunching and eating ruined the atmosphere, and the moment his hand stretched out, he took it back.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Shu Neem's small movements, and Gao Min stuffed popcorn to her, "Eat, it's not so poor!" ”

"Then you're welcome", Shu Nee fished a few popcorn and ate them, and was gradually attracted by the warm story presented in the movie.

The correspondence between the American writer and the English gentleman lasted a lifetime, and they did not have the opportunity to meet, but they knew each other very well. Who can say that there is no love between them, and sure enough, the words of the hero's wife to the heroine confirm Shu Neem's suspicion: Sometimes, I am not afraid to tell you that I used to be very jealous of you, because Frank is so fond of your letters, and your letters are so much the same as his sense of humor! And I've been jealous of your writing skills......

At the end of the movie, the heroine finally goes to the London of her dreams, she steps out of the black taxi, and her wandering eyes sweep over the windows of houses with books, Nos. 68, No. 76, No. 82, No. 84 - the building is empty, the shelves with cobwebs hanging in the gray glass windows are crooked, the floor is littered with waste paper, the room is full of dust, she looks at the dilapidated bookstore and tears in tears, and the person she has an appointment with can't wait any longer.

The story of 84 Charing Cross comes to an abrupt end, and the lights come on to announce the end of the movie.

Shu Neem was still in her mind for a moment, Gao Min's gaze touched her softly like butterfly wings, and when she turned her head consciously, she flapped her wings and fled.

"There is an ancient poem that is particularly in line with the inner portrayal of the heroine", Shu Nee twisted her face to talk to Gao Min, probably influenced by the movie, the atmosphere is a little weird, and the feeling after the exchange is stronger than silence.

"This situation can be recalled, but it was already sad at that time", after reading the poem, Gao Min raised his glass, "Come, cheers, I wish you and me no regrets in life!" ”

She liked this greeting, and Shu Nee happily clinked glasses with Gao Min and drank it all.

"The love that started with the book is very touching," Gao Min sighed quietly.

"In general, it may have nothing to do with love, it tells the warmth of the world, the hero and heroine are connected by books, they are bosom friends in life, and they have achieved lifelong spiritual fulfillment. I haven't read the original book and can't say for sure, but the meaning conveyed by the movie is very clear, the spiritual love between the two is hidden, after all, the hero is already a husband and a father, as the heroine said, 'I think when love is shown in another way, it is not torn away, but translated into a better language.' The translators sent by God are called chance, responsibility, accumulation, and silence. There's another one, called 'Nostalgia' - I like her explanation, which is probably the reason why the two never say anything about love in their correspondence."

Gao Min has another opinion, "Twenty years of fate and saving, thousands of miles apart are not against my heart, I appreciate but disagree, if it is me, whether it is out of friendship or love, I must try my best to realize my wish, instead of waiting for the news of death, crying and sighing alone, it is better to miss the false proposition in my place!" ”

"Maybe she's afraid to go?" , Shu Neem's mind suddenly popped up an idea, "The reality is difficult to be as expected, some expectations cannot be realized, there is always the other side that cannot be reached, the bookstore manager has a cherished wife and daughter, and he reasonably controls the secret and happy feelings born of faith, which can be glimpsed from his wife's letters, but so what, they have their own tracks and lives, and it is already precious to know and cherish each other spiritually, what else is there to demand?" ”

"I've read the original book, and I like the movie adaptation, because I'm eager to find a soul mate who resonates spiritually, like Helen and Frank, you have to know that there are too many unlucky people in this world, they can't taste the taste of heart-to-heart connection in their lives, I hope I have this good luck"

"People who can give us spiritual comfort and understanding are not easy to meet, just like looking for another self in the vast sea of people, finding a legend, but not finding a ......", Shu Neem shrugged, "I can't find life as usual!" ”

Gao Min was surprised, "Will you compromise?" ”

Shu Neem glared, "Who said that?" Why should I compromise and not be alone? ”

"Don't give up, we have to believe in miracles", the corners of Gao Min's mouth curved, "I don't think fate will treat us two kindly!" ”
