I picked it up from the ground, and if I didn't look closely, I could barely tell that it was any different from the jacket I had before, but the brand had changed to Armani after all. In fact, even if she can buy a jacket of the same quality and style, it no longer means anything to me, because what I care about is not the jacket itself, but a kind of affection that cannot be exchanged for material.

Back in the house, I put the jacket that the girl bought into the closet, and then took the jacket that had been burned to the point of fading by 84 disinfectant from the drying rack, carefully put it into the cover, and hung it in the closet.

I spent the whole morning mowed the flowers and plants in the yard, and in the afternoon I made an appointment with a client to update us on the progress on our side, and when dusk came, I was once again bored with nothing to do for the weekend.

I went to the café called "Mood" again, where I was going to pass the time before the night came.

Because it's a weekend, there are a lot fewer people in the coffee shop than usual, and I think: when you can relieve the pressure of work, everyone likes the lights of the city, and this is just a place for white-collar workers to temporarily relax the rhythm of life, it will never become the whole of a person's life.

When I entered the coffee shop, the proprietress Yu Ya rarely sat at the bar in person, and the opportunity was rare, so I gave up the idea of drinking beer and said to her: "Give me a cup of mood coffee that you personally concocted." ”

Yu Ya looked up at me, and I looked at her, she was still dressed so fashionably, the rose tattoo under the white shirt loomed like her label, and there was a silk scarf with national characteristics wrapped around her wrist. I once heard Yu Ya say that there are many women like her in Lijiang, they like to sing, chase freedom, respect individuality, maybe they used to be teachers, civil servants, doctors or flight attendants, but when they come to Lijiang with stories, they will fade away from the past, and only pursue the freedom brought to them by a coffee shop or bar, and then settle there to become a new creature called "bar hostess".

Yu Ya is this kind of woman, she is very good at listening to the stories of other people's lives, but she never confides in others about her experiences. In Lijiang, she is not so conspicuous because there are many people like her, but once she comes to Nanjing, the profundity with the story will be highlighted, and people can't help but want to explore her past.

She took off her headphones and smiled at me and asked, "How are you feeling today?" ”

"Is boredom a type of mood?"

"Barely countable."

"Then I'm bored."

She nodded and said, "Then let's make you a cup of coffee that can cure your boredom." ”

"We'll see." As I spoke, I lay down on the bar and waited with great interest, and in the process, I asked her, "Why do you have time to come to Nanjing today?" I remember you haven't been here for almost two months. ”

She replied: "Actually, I really want to stay in Nanjing, but unfortunately the bars in Lijiang are too busy, and I can't take a break, if I don't miss this place too much, I'm afraid I won't have time to come to the Chinese New Year." ”

"Is the bar you opened in Lijiang also called mood?"

"Hmm."

After a short silence, I asked her curiously: "Since the business of the bar in Lijiang is so good, why do you want to open this coffee shop in Nanjing, which is not too profitable, it is really inconvenient to walk back and forth between the two sides." ”

"If I tell you, I am also a Nanjing girl, do you believe it?"

I looked at her incredulously, because in my impression, she never seemed to communicate with me in Nanjing, she smiled again, and said, "Okay, why opening a coffee shop in Nanjing is not important at all, the important thing is this cup of mood coffee that I am mixing for you, you are going to spoil my mood, don't blame me for the coffee not mixing the taste you want." ”

She was like that, every time I took the opportunity to ask her, she would cleverly avoid it, and I was kind of a sensible person, and I lit a cigarette and chose to shut up.

After a moment of silence, she finally handed the coffee to me, and I squinted and tasted it, still the familiar taste, although a little bitter, but at the moment when the taste was about to disappear, it made people want to take another sip.

Yu Ya wiped her hands with a towel and began to care about my life again, she asked me, "Are you doing well during this time?" I guess you should have confessed to Chen Yi. ”

Yu Ya is the only one who knows that I have a male and female affection for Chen Yi, maybe this is because she is not in my interpersonal circle, I will rest assured to tell her these innermost secrets, I took another sip of "mood coffee", shook my head in the bitter taste and replied: "No...... Although we grew up together in this alley, we are separated by the farthest distance in the world! ”

She still smiled and replied: "I don't want to persuade you too much, because most people in this world are living for the world's eyes, but if you have the opportunity, I really hope that you can go to Lijiang, maybe there will be some different gains." ”

I nodded, subconsciously looked in the southwest direction, and then replied, "That's where my heart longs to go, and I want to go to your bar for a few drinks." ”

"Welcome." Yu Ya said and looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and said to me: "I took the plane for too long today, go back to the hotel to rest first, I will invite you for this cup of coffee, and we will talk again when we have the chance." ”

"Hmm...... By the way, the day after tomorrow is my birthday, and if you don't leave for the next two days, I would like to hold a birthday party at your coffee shop, and I sincerely invite you to participate. ”

Yu Ya looked at me apologetically, and then replied: "Actually, my main purpose this time is to go to Beijing to attend a business conference held by Ctrip.com, Nanjing is just passing by, and I have to leave tomorrow morning." ”

"It's okay, I just want to be more lively, you better focus on your own affairs."

As I spoke, the door of the coffee shop was pushed open, and the girl suddenly appeared next to me and Yu Ya, I was startled, but she didn't look at me squarely, walked to the cashier and said, "I forgot to bring my wallet when I drank coffee here this morning, and then I bet a violin in your store, I pay for it now, and you can return the violin to me." ”

The cashier replied, "I wasn't on duty this morning, I'll make a call and check with my colleague." ”

"Well, hurry up...... I don't want to be in front of someone with severe Treette syndrome! ”

Yu Ya looked at the daredevil in front of her with some curiosity, presumably it was the first time she had seen someone come out for coffee without a wallet, but this curiosity only lasted for a moment, and she waved goodbye to me.

After Yu Ya left, the cashier had already checked with his colleague, he took out a piano case from the cabinet under the bar, and handed it to the girl, she looked at me expressionlessly and then prepared to leave.

Remembering that her previous behavior was just a prank that she didn't know who was not guilty, and bought me a brand new leather jacket, although it couldn't make up for anything, but I wasn't suitable to continue to be angry with her, so I blocked the door and took the initiative to talk to her: "I don't see it, you can still play the violin!" ”

She looked at me with a cold face and asked, "Do you think I'm the kind of woman who can turn her face when you want to, and make peace when you want to?" ”

"Did I say I was going to make peace with you?"

"Then please give me a dead shot." As she spoke, she savagely shoved me.

I stood still, looked at her with a cold face and said, "I wish you and I didn't get along with each other, but before I can do that, I have to figure out one thing...... Please tell me: why did you find me, did we meet somewhere? ”

"I don't want to talk to you now, you give me death." She said and tried to push me again.

I dodged her and replied, "Didn't you say that coming to me was the beginning of a game?" Now I want to be the rule-maker of this game, and if you don't say what is close to me today, I won't get out of the way. ”

She didn't talk nonsense with me, she raised her leg and was about to stomp on my foot, I hurriedly turned sideways and got out of the way, she also took the opportunity to open the door of the coffee shop, and after looking at me hatefully, she said: "I would have known that you are such a deceptive virtue, so I won't come to you, I declare now: This game is over, don't let me see you again in the future." ”

……

After leaving the coffee shop, I didn't go to other places to kill time, just returned to my small courtyard, and then slept on the recliner and remembered some thoughts, thinking: there is really a difference between people, so Chen Yi easily accepted my reconciliation, but that girl hated me as an enemy, and even said "Don't let her see me again in the future", but this didn't threaten me at all, I only knew her for a few days, and whether we would meet again was not too much concern for me, It's just that I'm really curious: what was the purpose of what she found me in the first place?

It was so quiet in the courtyard that after a moment I felt a sense of drowsiness, and then the door of the courtyard was pushed open.

When I opened my eyes, I saw that the person who came was "the cashier of the mood coffee shop, who was holding a student ID card in his hand, and said to me: "Jiang Qiao, you are friends with that girl, right?" When she took her purse just now, she also brought out her student ID, and when I was cleaning, I found that it had fallen under the bar, so you should go and return it to her...... I've never seen such a careless girl! ”

I took the student ID card from him, and my heart swelled with the urgency before the truth was about to be revealed, and at this moment the girl's student ID card was in my hand, and I was afraid that I wouldn't know her name?
