After thinking about some things in the past, the sunlight outside the window seemed to be stronger, and after squinting his eyes and lowering the curtain a little, Lao Wu asked me again: "Brother, who is that woman?" Don't sell it, I'm really curious! ”

I put away my emotions and finally said to the fifth child: "It's Xiao Ai." ”

"Xiao Ai!? Are you sure? ”

"I'm sure."

Lao Wu replied a little incredulously: "I know this girl, I once met her at a music festival in Chengdu, although she was only about twenty years old at the time, but the plasticity shown in her body is something I have not seen in the music circle over the years, I even recommended her to the CEOs of several record companies in Shanghai, but when I really approached her, she was rejected without leaving a little room...... I didn't expect her to make her debut now! ”

"Well, she disappeared for nearly two years in the meantime, and only chose to debut in Taiwan with her first solo album some time ago."

Lao Wu said to me with great interest: "Do you have her album?" I want to hear it now. ”

I nodded, and immediately took out the album that had not been opened from the backpack I was carrying, and the fifth child really wanted to listen to it, although there was no equipment in the teahouse to listen to the CD, he still found a waiter, and then borrowed a computer, put the CD into the CD drive, and I finally heard Xiao Ai's long-lost voice again after two years.

Now I, because I often mix with Liu Liu Kangkang and others, I already have a high appreciation of music, so when the prelude of the first song sounds, I already have a judgment in my brain, the music form of this album is very advanced, even if you listen to it after 20 years, you will not feel the soil, and when Xiao Ai's ethereal voice comes out, the texture of the whole song has been sublimated......

After listening to a song, Lao Wu paused the playback, and then said to me with appreciation: "I don't want to praise this album too highly, but it is indeed a sincere album, both the arrangement and the musical consciousness have a relatively rare level in the Chinese music scene...... If I'm not mistaken, Yuan Zhen should have been involved in the production of this album, and I can hear a lot of thoughts that belong to him, because we had a few musical exchanges when he was still in Shanghai. ”

"You're right, most of the songs on this album are related to Yuan Zhen, who served as the producer of this album."

Lao Wu nodded and replied: "Well, his creation and Xiao Ai's singing can be said to be a match made in heaven, and I heard that these two people used to be brothers and sisters from the same school, and they seemed to be married again the year before last, and then the two disappeared from the public eye together...... So I'm more curious, what is your role in this? ”

My nerves were pricked, and I took a sip of wine from my glass before replying, "I'm her first love." ”

Lao Wu looked at me in surprise, and only replied after a while: "It turns out that you have such a past, no wonder we have known each other for many years, I have not seen you interact with other women, it turns out that I can't forget the old love!" ”

I forced a smile and replied; "Next, should you persuade me to take this past relationship a little less?"

Lao Wu looked at me with a serious face, then shook his head and replied: "If this is a thing that can be persuaded, you have already been persuaded to come, there is no need to wait until today for me to persuade me, right?" ”

I groaned for a while before I said: "I don't know what I think now, it's not that I haven't moved the idea of starting a relationship again in the past two years, but when I really have to face it, I feel that love is quite boring, and it wasn't until she came back to my sight recently that I realized that it might have something to do with that love, because no matter which woman I imagined to be with, it wouldn't bring me the feeling I had at the beginning...... So I'm filled with a particularly strong sense of crisis right now! ”

Lao Wu touched his chin and said worriedly: "But she is now married, it is too difficult to recover it, and she is now a public figure, and the moral condemnation you have to face is very difficult to bear!" ”

I looked at Lao Wu for a long time before replying, "I haven't had such a mind...... My silence is my last dignity, and all I do now is just instinctively hoping that she can live well, maybe this feeling will become weaker and weaker in the future! ”

Lao Wu looked at me, he smiled, and said, "Compared to music, feelings may be more complicated...... You are right to choose to go back to Nanjing at this time, take this time to take care of your life, since you feel that it is impossible for you to be with her, you can't be so single for the rest of your life, so find a new home for your feelings as soon as possible, maybe this is the antidote that can save you in the end......"

I nodded, signaling that I would consider it carefully, and the fifth child said: "As for Xiao Ai's matter, you can rest assured, I will do my best to help if I can......"

"Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Old Five!"

……

After saying goodbye to Lao Wu at the teahouse, I drove alone towards the Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway to Nanjing. On this long journey, I happened to hear an English song called "iyou" on the traffic radio station, so the mood became a little lazy along the way, and I couldn't understand most of the lyrics, my mood just changed with the change of tune, and when the whole song was about to end, day and night also entered the alternating process, so the distant buildings began to be dotted with flowing lights. The three long bridges, on which I was driving, were a high point, which allowed me to see 50 percent of the outline of the city, and every tall building was a heart that wanted to fly, but it was like a ship trapped by a heavy anchor...... So I turned up the volume to the maximum, but the song ended, followed by the social news that Nanjing's housing prices are still skyrocketing......

I feel that the city is crazy, and the people in it are also crazy, because they have a heart to fly, but they are willing to be imprisoned, so the houses seem to be built enough, crisscrossing the city, but there is no blood flowing at all.

I don't know how long I drove in the congested city, but I finally returned to the old house in Lane 24, and this place is like a corner of the world, where cars can't drive in, but there is the oldest tailor shop in the mode, and if you go with the cloth, it will make you the clothes you want.

The moment I opened the door, it was as if I had traveled from a real world to another world without rules and systems, and I just wanted to make a pot of hot tea and sit in the courtyard all night.

After about an hour of silence, my phone rang again in my pocket, and I picked it up and looked at it, it was Jin Qiu calling.

I listened a little numbly to the ninth ring, and then asked Jin Qiu on the other end of the phone in a hoarse voice, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Where are you now...... Everyone wants to invite you to have dinner together, and they have already booked a private room in the hotel. ”

"No need, I'm already back in Nanjing...... When I go to Shanghai next time, I'll invite everyone to dinner. ”

Jin Qiu was a little surprised: "Why are you in such a hurry to go back to Nanjing?" ”

"I don't want to put the withdrawal of shares in a delay, so I plan to talk to Qiao Ye about this matter tomorrow, if he also thinks that there is no problem, this matter will be settled...... You know, I've always liked to leave things hanging and not settled, especially if it's something you don't have to put on. ”

"Hmmm......"

Jin Qiu wanted to speak and stopped.

I waited for a while before I said to her again: "If nothing else, I'll hang up the phone, I'm a little tired from a long day today!" ”

"Wait...... Don't you want to know about the follow-up to Xiao Ai's concert? ”

I was stunned for a moment, then replied in a disconnected manner, "Even if you want to know, I can't change anything...... So let's be pure. ”

After a moment of silence, Jin Qiu replied: "Her concert has been confirmed to be held at Luopu Stadium according to their original plan...... Our Dream Tree has opted out...... This should be the result you want, right? ”
