After sitting in Chen Yi's room for a while, I returned to my residence, but I was too lazy to wash, I lay directly on my bed, and then stared at the ceiling in a daze, and suddenly felt that there is no so-called fate in this world, some are just one person's death, one person can't hold it, two people can support it, when two people can't hold it, that is the end of a relationship

Since yesterday, the city of Nanjing has entered the winter, and I have also completed the renovation of the "Mood Coffee Shop" before the arrival of winter, and now the business area has reached 100 square meters, and the confession wall I focus on building has also been completed, and the set of pastry making equipment that Chen Yi gave me before began to be put into use yesterday, and everything is in shape.

By the way, Jin Qiu also sued Li Zishan in court in the name of the company, and this lawsuit between the company and the customer caused a lot of shock in the industry, and many people are paying attention to the outcome of this lawsuit.

And I still occasionally think of Xiao Ai, but she seems to have come a long way in my memory, and we haven't seen each other for a long time since the last time we said goodbye at the gate of the small courtyard.

This evening, Nanjing began the first snow since the beginning of winter, the snow is not very big, but it is enough to make the people in this city in the south of the Yangtze River overjoyed, everyone put on a thick coat and walked on the street to see the snow, and those girls who love beauty will not give up this best time to take pictures, they are like a landscape, bringing vitality to the winter of the ancient city.

Chen Yi was about to get off work, I walked out of a small vegetable market nearby with a vegetable basket and a one-piece hat, Chen Yi said that I wanted to eat Coke chicken wings tonight, so I bought a convenient bag, anyway, it is easy to save in winter.

There was a bit of a commotion in the streets, and people were talking about the first snow of the winter, but I didn't care, I just lit a cigarette and walked sideways through the crowd, and then walked into another crowd, thinking about whether to have some porridge or boiled rice balls for dinner today, or to eat something richer.

My arm was suddenly grabbed, and someone behind me said, "Sir, I'm sorry to disturb you." Today is the first day of the opening of our Bridge Music Workshop, if your child wants to learn the piano in the future, you can send it to us, there are discounted piano guitars, guzheng can be."

I looked back and was surprised that it was none other than Xiao Ai, who I had just remembered, with a thick stack of leaflets in her hand, her face flushed from the cold wind, and like me, she was wearing a jumpie hat.

We exclaimed, "It's you"

We were so embarrassed at the same time that we both fell silent. Finally, I looked at the flyer in her hand and asked, "Are you good at playing the piano?"

She nodded and replied, "Well, didn't I say before that I wanted to make a little money on my own, so I started a piano shop, and I can teach ordinary musical instruments anyway." ”

"Oh, but aren't you going to Germany at the beginning of next year, who will take care of the piano shop in the future?"

"Transfer it to my classmates, and then I will take some shares, and the living expenses will be settled in the future."

I smiled and said, "Yes, it's beautiful."

Xiao Ai glanced at me and replied, "If you want to squeeze me, be happy, don't be so weird, anyway, I think this piano shop can be opened well." ”

"Yes, yes, it will definitely be able to drive well"

I encouraged her in a very firm tone, and in my opinion, it was already a very positive thing for a rich lady to have such a transformation. At first, I really thought that she was joking with me when she said that she wanted to make a sum of money to study abroad, after all, it is not easy to make some money in this society, not to mention that her own father is so rich, why should she suffer this crime, but this also reflects her character from the side, she has always been quite stubborn.

I looked at her frozen red hands, took my gloves off my hands, handed them to her, and said, "Put them on." ”

"No, you don't."

"Put it on, you have to play the piano with this hand, if you get frostbite, you will suffer it," I said, and handed the gloves to Xiao Ai.

She finally took the gloves from my hand, I looked at the time, and there was still a moment before Chen Yi got off work, so I said to her: "Give me half of the leaflet, and I'll help you distribute it." ”

"Jiang Qiao, you are still as blind and enthusiastic as before"

"I don't want you to freeze outside, okay, you see that you wear so little, you don't have the consciousness of working people at all, in your eyes, beauty comes first."

Xiao Ai was silent, I put down the vegetable basket in my hand, took more than half of the leaflets from her hand, and sighed: "I already look so beautiful, and I love beauty so much, I can't be a goblin."

"You're a goblin," Xiao Ai said, raising her leg to kick me, I was still agile, and I dodged it sideways, in fact, she didn't really want to kick me, just joking.

I took off my jumpy hat and began to launch leaflets in the form of shouting, which attracted many passers-by to stop and disperse all the leaflets in about half an hour, and the sky was completely dark, and the snow was heavier.

Xiao Ai took advantage of the gap to buy two roasted sweet potatoes from a roadside stall, and then sat with me on a bench under the eaves of the convenience store and ate them. I said that it was a waste to start spending money on sweet potatoes before the money was earned. She said she was willing, I don't care, and then the two of them had some meaningless conversations. This makes me think it's good to be like this now, there is no need to deliberately go to each other, occasionally meet, just a simple reminiscence, the next moment they will go their separate ways, as for whether there will be a chance to meet in the future, just follow fate.

There was already snow on the road, and the whole world was pure white, so I finally looked at the only leaflet left and asked her, "Why did you name the piano shop Qiao Orchestra?"

Xiao Ai didn't look at me, she replied very indifferently: "Music is a bridge between people and their souls, don't you think this name is very good" After a pause, she added: "It's called Bridge Music Workshop, but it has nothing to do with you at all." ”

"Oh"

Xiao Ai nodded, and said, "In order to thank you, please eat hot pot." ”

"Don't be so polite, I'll go back to cook for Chen Yi later."

She looked at me and hesitated for a moment before asking, "You're already living together."

"No, she went back to live in her old house, and cooking for her was a door-to-door business."

"Oh, then I'll eat it myself."

"Is there no one to accompany you, Yuan Zhen?"

"He's going to Hainan for a music festival, it's good to eat alone, you can eat whatever you want, you don't have to worry about the other person's mood at all, right?" she said and smiled, then lowered her head and pinned the hair that covered the corners of her eyes behind her ears, and I realized that her hair that had been cut short had grown a little longer, and she could already be braided

I finally said to her in the cold wind that had not stopped: "Since you want to thank me so much, sing me a song, I haven't heard you sing for a long time." ”

"What song do you want to hear?"

I thought for a moment and replied, "A song that can represent your mood lately." ”

"Okay, then sing you a song about Xu Zhepei's madman." She paused and said, "I've been feeling like a crazy person lately."

I looked at her, as if I saw her life during this period of time in her words, and she barely brewed emotions, and sang with the truest mood: "I want to cry when I brush my teeth, I want to cry when I wash my face, I want to cry when I walk, I want to cry when I am still, I want to cry when I am out of the sun, I want to cry when I get wind, I want to cry when I listen to songs, I want to cry when I watch comedy, I can't control my emotions that are too burdened, and then I suppress and suppress them, I can't do it soon, I keep crying like a madman, I have no way out, you also treat me as a madman, I am a madman"

In her singing, I lit a cigarette, even though she sang so much and wanted to cry, but I didn't believe that she would cry at all, at most she was just talking crazy in her recent life, otherwise how would she run out and do a piano shop by herself, and then she handed out flyers in the body of a young lady, I also thought she was crazy

As if having completed a task, she returned the gloves I had just lent her to me after singing the song, and then, carrying her piano case on her back, without saying goodbye to me, followed the footprints of pedestrians on the snow, and walked towards a hot pot restaurant across the street

I suddenly wanted God to give me this extra twenty minutes and let me accompany her to a hot pot, but Chen Yi should also come back, I really don't have time to stay outside, I have to go back to make today's dinner.

Back at my residence, I made the chicken wings I bought into cola chicken wings, then boiled a pot of porridge, and went to the alley to buy a few steamed buns, but Chen Yi did not come back on time as I expected, so I had to light a cigarette and sit on the steps under the eaves of her house and wait, and the snow was getting thicker and thicker on the bluestone path in front of me

I didn't call Chen Yi because I knew that she might have a temporary recording task, and she would call me as soon as she finished recording, and even if I called her at this time, she probably wouldn't be able to answer it.

I don't know how long it took for the sound of footsteps stepping on the snow to finally come from a distance, and I hurriedly got up from the steps and looked around the corner where I always blocked my view

After seeing the person clearly, my mood suddenly sank, and the one who came to me at this moment was Qiu Zi'an, who I didn't want to see in my life.

I instinctively became alert, and then many possibilities of him coming here flashed in my mind, but it was definitely not a good person, as he himself said, to this day, he still has not given up the pursuit of Chen Yi.

He was getting closer and closer to me, and we finally stood face to face, no embarrassment, no friendship, only hostility burning in our hearts
