Chapter 32: The Truth Beyond the Truth?
Xiao Ai left, I was standing alone next to the old-fashioned liberation truck, and I was in the mood to take out my mobile phone from my pocket, and Zhao Mu had already sent me a message back ten minutes ago, and he asked: "How long will you be going to the company, Sister Chen Yi and I will wait for you for a while." ”
I suddenly wanted to stay here quietly, I didn't want to go anywhere, although I was sure that I really wanted to see Chen Yi, but what about after I saw it?
I finally replied to the message: "Don't wait, you guys eat, I really can't go here." ”
Barely waiting, Zhao Mu replied with a message: "Okay, then I'll bring you some food from Sister Chen Yi later." ”
I still wanted to eat what Chen Yi had made, and finally obeyed my heart and accepted Zhao Mu's proposal, and our conversation ended here, in the empty courtyard, I seemed to have cut off all ties with this world, and I was waiting for her to come back.
It was getting dark, Xiao Ai had been there for almost 20 minutes, I had changed from waiting at the beginning to worrying, I was going to look for her, and the next moment, she finally came from Lu Nan, carrying a huge convenience bag in her hand, which not only contained beer but also many other things to eat, no wonder she went for so long.
After a while, she came to the courtyard gate, first threw the convenience bag to me, and then climbed up the iron gate and climbed into the courtyard, I complained, "Why buy so many things, just buy some beer." ”
She replied very carelessly: "I want to sit here for a while, I can't smoke again, I can only eat more, because I'm afraid that you suddenly don't want to talk, and I'll be bored." ”
"Then I'll teach you to smoke and it's over."
She didn't dislike my bad idea, but replied very seriously: "I don't want to learn, I eat by my throat, unless I don't want to sing anymore one day, and when I'm very sad, maybe I'll try the taste of tobacco." ”
"The cost is so big, then you better not try!"
"That's what I thought too."
……
When night came, this wasteland became the loneliest place, there was no rendering of street lamps, and there was no attention from pedestrians, only Xiao Ai and I were drinking beer here, chatting quietly, chatting and falling into silence. Suddenly, she said to me on a whim: "Jiangqiao, if one day we build a flower house here and plant tulips in it, will this road become a veritable tulip road?" ”
I fell into a reverie and laughed, "It's a crazy idea, but it's unrealistic, because you can't contract this land." ”
"What if I made it happen?"
"If you do it, I will award you a medal on behalf of the government."
"What award?"
"Street Culture Development Award, haha......"
"What, it's hard to hear!"
I laughed, took another cigarette out of my cigarette case, lit it for myself, and imagined that this wasteland would be covered with tulips, and if one day I would go all over the world to my mother and show her how the tulip road had changed since she left.
"Jiang Qiao, I'm a little sleepy, can I sleep on your lap for a while?"
I was stunned for a moment before replying, "If you're sleepy, I'll send you back to school." ”
"I can't sleep when I go back to school, it's quiet here, and I want to sleep for a while."
I looked at her face by the moonlight, and it was really full of sleepiness, thinking that it was caused by getting up early this morning in order to fulfill my promise to me, and I couldn't help but feel a warmth in my heart, so I lowered my voice and said to her: "If you are not afraid of men and women kissing, you can take my legs to lie on your stomach." ”
"Whoever makes me sleepy, let you take advantage of it for the time being."
As she spoke, she fell on my lap, and soon I felt the warmth of her cheeks, and the faint fragrance of her hair gently diffused in the night......
My heartbeat was a little faster, but listening to her even breathing, I calmed down again, I gently stroked her soft hair, and suddenly I wanted to have such a sister, she would accompany me to live in the old alley of this tulip road, I was willing to make time every day, cook for her, wash her clothes, care about every detail of her life, and share all her joys, sorrows, and sorrows.
It's a pity that I don't have a sister, I'm the kind of person who is destined to be lonely in this world!
I took off my coat and gently covered her, and although my legs were numb, I didn't want to disturb her sleep by moving it, and I would rather just petrify here, and then look down on all the rights and wrongs and joys and sorrows of this world......
……
The night was short, as if it was just a nap, and Xiao Ai and I had to leave here, but this time we went out, we climbed the courtyard gate together, and the result was that Xiao Ai was faster than me. I can't help it, who made the bones in my body too hard, and almost tore my pants because of the speed compared to her.
We were standing under a street lamp, and she said to me before leaving, "Jiangqiao, can you give this abandoned factory a nice name?" ”
In my opinion, this is just a place where the soul can rest, so it doesn't matter if there is a name or not, so I replied perfunctorily: "I have no culture, so I can't get up well...... It's better for you to get up. ”
"You get up...... I can give you some time to think about it. ”
"Can you not make it like a task to be assigned to me?"
"You're right, it's a mission."
I smiled helplessly, and I didn't want to argue with her over such a trivial matter, so I counted out a stack of money from my wallet and handed it to her, changing the subject and saying, "This is the payment for your performance at the wedding today, let's order a little." ”
She was about to take it from me, but suddenly stopped and said to me: "Let's let you go here, I can't save the money, you can save the money for my performances in the future, maybe one day I will need this money urgently." ”
I looked at her suspiciously......
"Why, don't you want us to have a chance to work together in the future?"
"Of course I hope so, but I've also heard from your classmates that you are very reluctant to commercial performances."
"It's up to me whether to exclude or not, so don't listen to those gossip...... Okay, I really have to go back, or I'll have to climb over the courtyard wall again when I get to school. As she spoke, she reached out and flagged down a taxi from the side of the road. Then, he was the first to end the night with me, but I still couldn't get used to it, and stood there for a while, then looked back at the abandoned textile factory, and then walked in the direction of the alley.
……
When I returned to my accommodation, I found that Zhao Mu had arrived before me, and there was a red lunch box on the table, which I recognized as Chen Yi's, because I had used this lunch box to go to the TV station to deliver food to her.
"Brother Qiao, you haven't eaten yet, I'll warm up the meal for you."
"I'll do it myself."
"You've been working for a day, so I'll do it." Zhao Mu said that he had already gone to the kitchen with the lunch box, and I was not idle, watering some flowers that needed to be watered at night, and then moving the flowers and plants that should not be watered to the corridor.
Zhao Mu put the hot meal on the stone table, and then said to me, "Brother Qiao, do you know? Sister Chen Yi may be quitting her job at the TV station. ”
I subconsciously frowned: "She's going to quit her job at the TV station!" Did I hear me right? ”
"Well, hasn't she told you yet?"
I shook my head.
Zhao Mu said again: "It should have something to do with Qiu Zi'an, I heard that Qiu Zi'an is going to move his media company from Beijing to Shanghai, he hopes that Chen Yijie will join their company, and then build Chen Yijie into a first-line entertainment host in the country." ”
Although I already knew Qiu Zi'an's thoughts, I still had a slight sadness in my heart, I didn't persuade Chen Yi to leave the TV station system before, but she didn't listen at all, but Qiu Zi'an could move her, but I can understand it when I think about it, after all, Qiu Zi'an has made a small achievement in the media industry, with Chen Yi's special relationship with him, after joining his company, there will not be too many risks, this is still in line with Chen Yi's always insisted line of seeking stability, maybe after Chen Yi and him officially get married, will not let Chen Yi show up again.
In this regard, my interpretation is: Chen Yi left the TV station, in fact, to prepare for his marriage with Qiu Zi'an.
"Brother Qiao, don't you have any opinion on this matter?"
I forced a smile and replied: "Yes, I have to thank Chen Yi for making this decision, no wonder the leaders of their TV station suddenly agreed to her to preside over the wedding of our company's customers, it turned out that she was afraid that she would leave the TV station, and I was really a blessing in disguise!" ”
Zhao Mu didn't answer me, and I also fell into deeper doubts, why didn't Chen Yi confess the truth of this matter to me before? I remember clearly: before, when I asked her why Taili would agree to her to officiate at the wedding, her answer to me was not clear, is there another truth besides this truth?
The more I thought about it, the more wrong it became, and finally put down the chopsticks in my hand and asked Zhao Mu, "When you came back, did Chen Yi sleep with her?" ”
"She still has to clean up the dinner table, wash and mess with it, how can she sleep without eleven o'clock!"
"I want to go to her."
Zhao Mu was not surprised at all by my sudden decision, he replied: "Go, today's dinner is actually made for you by Sister Chen Yi, but she didn't let me tell you, and you didn't go in the end, so she and I were very sullen when we were eating, and they didn't say a few words to me." ”
I had a feeling of heartbreak, I didn't expect that Chen Yi, who had never been in the kitchen, would cook for me personally, but I was not generous enough to live up to her wishes!
Before going to Chen Yi's residence, I picked up the pot of two-leaf tulips she wanted from under the eaves, I want to give it to her now, I should think of her stubborn temper in advance, she is unwilling to bow to me first, in fact, she has bowed her head to me many times, I shouldn't worry about the previous things, even if we can't be husband and wife in this life, but the friendship that grew up together in this alley should not be cut off so easily!
