19. Stars

"Do you see the south wind?" After hearing the cold voice on the mobile phone again: I'm sorry, the phone you dialed has been turned off, Song Zhixia finally couldn't help but open his mouth.

I didn't return all night, and I didn't see anyone all day today, and her soft temperament is really worrying.

No one answered her words, two of her roommates were lying on the bed playing with their phones, and the other was painting her nails, and the pungent smell of inferior nail polish made her frown slightly.

When she pushed open the bedroom door and was about to go out, she only heard roommate A say idly, "Aren't you so close to her, why can't you even look at yourself?" โ€

Song Zhixia's always smiling face sank, and she was still talking.

"At noon today, I saw the same sports car parked downstairs as it did that night, but I couldn't see who was sitting in the car."

"In the end, after all, it's a poor and scared person, so naturally he climbs up when he sees a high branch, this kind of thing is still rare in school, it is said that the girl in the second hospital has had several abortions......

Song Zhixia turned around and interrupted her, "Nanfeng is not such a person"

"Don't you know it in your own heart, I can tell you in advance, homosexuality is ...... after all"

"What did you say?!" Song Zhixia raised his voice suddenly, his face was so heavy that he could drip water, staring at her.

The roommate was taken aback, the nail polish was applied to his hands, and there was disdain in his eyes, "Why are you so loud, isn't it, you go in and out together every day, that greasy and crooked, I saw ...... that night"

Interrupted by the sound of pushing the door in the middle of the conversation, Gu Nanfeng was stunned for a moment, they hadn't slept yet, and a smile overflowed on their faces when they saw Zhixia.

"Zhixia, I'm back"

Song Zhixia's gaze swept over her from top to bottom, fixed on a small logo on her chest shirt, curled the corners of her lips and smiled, "Where did you go last night?" Who texted me today? โ€

Everyone pricked up their ears in an instant, and his roommate Xiao A didn't even wipe his nail polish, Gu Nanfeng pursed his lips, "Didn't I tell you last night, today...... Well...... I fell asleep...... So ......"

"So you're only coming back now? Do you know what time it is? You almost got your name written today, okay? That's why you don't accept Fu Lin? โ€

Her gaze slipped to the big bag she was carrying again, "Nanfeng, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person"

Even if she was sluggish, she knew that she had misunderstood, not to mention that she was as sensitive as Gu Nanfeng, and she also raised her voice, "Zhixia, I don't ......"

"None? Can you afford Versace clothes? I'm afraid you won't be able to earn that amount if you work part-time for a year, right?! โ€

"You believe me......" Gu Nanfeng stepped forward and wanted to hold her hand, with anxiety in his eyes, "I won't do anything like that"

Song Zhixia avoided without a trace, "Gu Nanfeng, I misjudged you"

When Gu Nanfeng wanted to say something, she had already strode out of the bedroom door, and she didn't know where to go, so she had to take out her mobile phone and make a call to Minghao.

"Hey, Minghao, where are you?"

In the noisy bar, the music shook the sky, Minghao pushed away the scantily clad girl in his arms, got up and walked to the bathroom to answer the phone.

There was a hint of impatience in his voice, "Hey, Zhixia, what's the matter?" โ€

Song Zhixia was stunned, and Gu Nanfeng's tearful eyes before turning away came to his mind, like stars scattered in the sky.

She shook her head and threw out the sad feelings, "It's okay, where are you, I'll go play with you"

Minghao grabbed the phone between his shoulders and lit a cigarette with one free hand, "Okay, I'm in the Orange Light Bar, come on"

The loud slamming of the door made her unable to come back to her senses for a long time, Gu Nanfeng stood in place and swallowed her sad feelings, and returned to her place and sat down in her place under the disdainful or gloating gaze of her roommate.

-- The dividing line of memory

"Jingle bellโ€”" The doorbell kept ringing back and forth, finally pulling her out of the dream.

Gu Nanfeng opened her eyes blankly, because of the medicine, the whole person was a little weak, she lay down again before getting up to open the door, and what she saw from the cat's eyes was Ye Qiu.

She rubbed her brow and opened the door, "How are you?" โ€

Ye Qiu was holding two plastic bags in his hand, still steaming, "You haven't turned on the machine for two days, aren't you worried that something will happen to you?"

Gu Nanfeng smiled bitterly and let her in, "What can happen to me?" โ€

Ye Qiu put the plastic bag in his hand on the table, took out two cups of Yonghe soybean milk, and steaming steamed buns, "Eat it while it's hot, stuffed with pork and cabbage"

Gu Nanfeng seemed to remember something, "You said I turned off the phone for two days?" โ€

"That's right" Ye Qiu swallowed the stuffing of the bun in her mouth hard before answering her words.

Gu Nanfeng's face began to look ugly, after returning from the nursing home that day, she took sleeping pills for insomnia, but she didn't expect that one slept would be two days, so today is Monday, and it is also the day of the school's parent-teacher conference.

She hurriedly ran into the bedroom and rummaged around for her mobile phone, but she was stunned again, what if she met Xiao Xubai at the parent-teacher meeting?

She wasn't ready to meet her again, no, I should say she never thought she'd ever meet her again.

The grievances between them have long since disappeared on that snowy night seven years ago.

It's just that now those unbearable pasts have been turned over again, just like sprinkling salt on a wound, and the pain is so painful that I can't breathe, so I can only grit my teeth and get through.

Gu Nanfeng slowly sat down on the bed, held the mobile phone in his hand for a long time, and finally dialed the office phone.

"Hey, Director Chen, it's me, Gu Nanfeng"

"Ahem...... I had a high fever for two days...... Doctors say there are signs of pneumonia...... Cough...... I'm afraid I won't be able to go to today's parent-teacher conference......"

After saying that, he coughed violently a few times, and the frightened Ye Qiu dropped one of the buns in his hand, and looked at her in a daze who lied without changing her face.

After hanging up the phone, her throat was really a little uncomfortable, she coughed twice, and laughed low when she saw Ye Qiu's surprised eyes.

"Do you think I'm a very irresponsible teacher?"

"After all, I haven't been your student, how do I know if you're responsible or not, I just know that people probably have their own reasons for doing everything."

Before going out, Xiao Xubai answered a phone call, her face began to become embarrassed, Qi Qi had already carried her schoolbag, she had to walk over and squat down to be at eye level with her.

"I'm sorry, Qiqi, something happened to the company temporarily, and I may not be able to attend your parent-teacher conference"

She said that most of the time she couldn't go, Xiao Qi's eyes swelled up with obvious disappointment, pursed his lips, and the heart of the person who blinked with his big eyes was soft.

"Got it, Mom"

In the past, Teacher Gu accompanied her when her mother was away, accompanied her to parent-teacher conferences, and she was not so sad when she thought of Teacher Gu.

Xiao Xubai raised her eyebrows in surprise, she didn't expect her to be so obedient, at least she had to cry coquettishly.

"Let's go, or you're going to be late"

She picked up the car keys from the table and touched her head again, "If the press conference ends early, I'll pick you up from school"

"Uh-huh!" Xiao Qi nodded vigorously and followed her out the door.

"Sister Ye Qiu, you're here, who is this?"

The little girl at the bar greeted her warmly, her long hair tied into a neat ponytail, wearing a peaked cap, looking energetic, and she couldn't see the decadence of the tattoo parlor that day.

A smile appeared on Gu Nanfeng's lips, and Cheng Cheng also recognized her, and suddenly realized, "You are the one, you were in the store that day, ...... in the store that day"

Gu Nanfeng stretched out his hand, "Hello, my name is Gu Nanfeng"

Ye Qiu leaned lazily against the bar, his ripped jeans looked very handsome, "How are you doing lately?" โ€

There was a very grateful light in the girl's eyes, "Thank you, Sister Ye Qiu"

Not only did he get a tattoo to cover the scar on her wrist, but he also introduced her to a new job.

"By the way, Sister Ye Qiu, I've been learning bartending recently, do you want to try my craft, Sister Nanfeng can also try it"

There was a natural closeness in his words, Gu Nanfeng pursed his lips slightly and smiled, "Okay"

"Okay, I want a cup of Long Island Iced Tea"

"Sister Nanfeng"

"Give Her Blue Hawaii"

Gu Nanfeng glanced at her lightly, "Long Island Iced Tea, thank you"

The waiter standing at the bar laughed, "Sister Ye is still so picky, don't you introduce us to us?" โ€

Ye Qiu was obviously a regular customer, and scratched his short hair, "What is there to introduce, the people I brought here are all friends."

An ambiguous light flashed in the boy's eyes, and he pursed his lips and smiled and stopped talking.

Gu Nanfeng knew that he had misunderstood the relationship between the two, but he didn't mean to explain, this kind of thing would only get darker and darker.

Instead of the hustle and bustle of the bar, the wall lamps cast a soft glow, the red-gray retro brick walls echo the brown floor, and the singer sings an unknown ballad, all of which seem cozy and quiet.

Gu Nanfeng took a sip of Changdao iced tea, allowing himself to relax all his body, Ye Qiu was still lying on the bar and talking and laughing with Cheng Cheng, glancing at her from time to time as if he didn't see it.

Chengcheng put a glass of juice in front of her and nodded at her, meaning don't be careless, I'm optimistic about you.

Ye Qiu grinned on his lips, smiled helplessly, picked up the glass of juice, and walked towards her.

Suddenly there was an extra glass of juice in front of her, Gu Nanfeng was stunned, and was about to say something when Ye Qiu interrupted her.

"Didn't you still cough in the morning? Drink some juice good for your throat"

Gu Nanfeng pursed his lips slightly and smiled, tilted his head and looked at her playfully, "I'm pretending to be sick, you ......"

"It's like I'm taking care of my sister."

Her eyes were full of honesty and did not hide it, Gu Nanfeng took a sip of juice and showed a smile to her, "Thank you"

Just as the music of the band stopped, Ye Qiu walked up to the stage and whispered a few words to the boy, he nodded and gave her the guitar.

Cheng Cheng also rubbed over, "Sister Nanfeng, I haven't heard Sister Ye Qiu play and sing for a long time, if you hadn't come, we wouldn't have this ear blessing."

As soon as the music turned, the originally soothing ballad turned into a slightly cheerful song, Ye Qiu's fingers plucked the guitar strings, and the clean voice slowly flowed out, filling the eardrums.

I'm going to smell the fresh spring with you

Feel the sun shine on your shoulders in the summer

The whole world is painted with golden autumn

Snowy winter

Maybe it's too far away to think about the future

It's also hard to travel the world together

But you showed up with me

It's the biggest amazing thing I've ever had

- "All the stars fell on my head when I met you"

As early as when the music started, Xiao Xubai, who was sitting in the corner, frowned, and the person sitting opposite seemed to notice her displeasure, and the smile on the corner of his lips carried a hint of apology.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao, I originally wanted to take Mr. Xiao to relax after the meeting, this Qing bar is usually very quiet"

Xiao Xubai took a sip of Bloody Mary, as if the crimson wine had also stained her lips with a layer of rouge.

"It's okay, it's a good place and the wine is good"

As the saying goes, a strong dragon can't overpower the head snake, and when you first arrive in H City, you not only have to have a good relationship with the people above, but also win over local enterprises, so this kind of meal is not small.

Originally, I wanted to refuse, but today I just won a tender with Long Hui, and refusing his invitation at this time is a bit of a suspicion of unloading the mill and killing the donkey.

When she was bored, Xiao Xubai had no choice but to set her eyes on the stage, it was a young short-haired girl, no more than twenty-five years old, with a bright and energetic expression.

The singing was very good, her eyes kept staring at a certain place in the audience, following her gaze, Xiao Xubai was suddenly stunned, and a feeling that she didn't know how to define it poured all over her body, making every cell want to move.
