A woven bag of beer was drunk by Robben and me, and the time went from dusk to night, and the street lamps by the moat did not know when to turn on, and as last time, the lamp poles fell parallel shadows on the surface of the river, and there was a faint shining.

I touched my somewhat full belly and asked Robben, "Is it time to go back?" ”

He looked at the night and said, "It's still early, but there's no wine!" ”

I lay back on the lawn, which was already a little dewy, as if it had been a long time since I had been at the moat, with the exception of today, from noon to dusk and into night.

I asked Robben, "What are your plans to bring Wei Manwen out of the mountains this time, won't she go back?" ”

"If you don't go back, maybe you will find a job in Suzhou, which is not difficult for her."

"Is she willing to live in the mountains, and those children?"

"I am reluctant, and I am worried that there will be no good volunteer teachers to educate them in the future."

"She compromised for you again!"

Robben nodded, then lit himself a cigarette, took a few leisurely puffs, and then turned to lean on the guardrail, looking at the river reflected by the streetlights.

"So what are your plans? Will you still sing in bars? ”

Robben shook his head: "A satellite TV station has opened an original music talent show, I received an invitation, and I am ready to try it, maybe there will be a chance." ”

I didn't take Robben's words, but I understood that he also made a big compromise for Wei Manwen, in the past, he disdained to participate in such a show, and he has been silently mixed in the folk music circle as a freelance musician all these years, but he has written one good song after another, I hope that this time he will become famous like Le Yao, and he will give Wei Manwen a comfortable material life if not for himself.

There was a sound of a car closing on the riverbank, and I subconsciously turned around to look up, and saw Jane Wei walking towards the riverbank with a stack of texts in her hand.

Janeway came to the embankment like this, and was very surprised to see me and Robben, but she only said hello lightly, and then sat down not far from us, looking at the thick stack of Wen Jiàn she brought, and the pen in her hand kept marking on the Wen Jiàn.

I didn't want to disturb her at work, so I beckoned Robben to leave, but Robben was still reluctant to leave, and sighed: "No wonder you always make yourself a drunk here, I didn't expect that there is such a good place to buy drunk in the suburbs of Suzhou." ”

Jian Wei, who had not been talking much, unexpectedly raised her head and took Robben's words, and said, "This place has been stored for a long time, but has Zhaoyang been drunk here many times?" ”

Robben looked at me and replied, "Almost two or three years ago, CC would get this drunken man back to Zhaoyang here almost every week, am I not mistaken?" ”

Janeway looked at me, waiting for my answer, but I avoided Janeway's gaze, looked at the river and said, "It's a bit exaggerated every week, but occasionally I come to drink and blow the wind. ”

Robben looked at me suspiciously, he didn't quite understand, now I don't want Janeway to know this, because in all the scenery that has changed, my favorite person is no longer her, and the only woman in my current world is the woman who appeared later, but between us does not seem to be as perfect as I expected, there are too many unresolved troubles waiting for us to face and solve, and I am not sure enough to deal with this overly exciting life.

Just when I didn't know how to respond to Robben's question, another taxi came on the bank of the river, and then I saw Wei Manwen who came to look for Robben.

This is the second time I have seen Wei Manwen since leaving the village in the mountains, but she has changed qualitatively compared to the last time, just a set of fashionable clothes, a beauty, she has completely lost the atmosphere of the countryside, she does not belong there, her roots have always been in this bustling urban life.

Wei Manwen came to Robben's side, the two fingers clasped tightly, as if they were no longer willing to separate, although I had never experienced this feeling of loss and regain, but there was a sense of empathy stored in my own imagination.

I smiled at Wei Manwen, it was considered a greeting, she nodded lightly in response, but Jian Wei looked at Wei Manwen with some puzzlement, they didn't know each other.

Robben introduced Wei Manwen to Janeway, Janeway smiled and said to Robben, "If I'm not mistaken, she should be the woman you have been thinking about for a long time, right?" ”

Robben nodded.

"Congratulations on your lovers!"

Wei Manwen politely said "thank you" to Janeway, and then waited for Robben to introduce Janeway to her, which was also the first time she met Janeway.

Robben and Janeway are not familiar with each other, and it is a little reluctant to call them friends, and they look at me with some embarrassment, so they can't introduce me as my ex-girlfriend.

I finally opened my mouth, solved this problem for Robben, and said to Wei Manwen: "Her name is Jian Wei, a Shanghai girl, we are friends, and today is purely a chance meeting." ”

Janeway suddenly glared at me, but I didn't know which sentence was wrong, so I looked at her innocently.

Jian Wei finally stopped glaring at me, picked up the text placed beside her, and turned to say goodbye to Wei Manwen and Robben, and then didn't say anything more, walked towards the river embankment, and disappeared from our sight

I couldn't get back to my senses, and it took a long time to ask Robben, "Did I say something wrong?" her so inexplicably! ”

Robben looked in the direction where Janeway had left and said to me, "I'm afraid she still has you in her heart, but you treat her as a chance passerby today."

I followed Robben's gaze in a bit dazed and looked in the direction where Janeway had left, but I couldn't see the Cadillac anymore.

Robben patted me on the shoulder and said, "You'd better figure out why she broke up with you in the first place, otherwise it's still a knot that could stump you for the rest of your life, and it's the same for Janeway!" ”

I was even more messy in this wave of unevenness, not only to wait for Mi Cai to choose between me and Zhuomei in the future, but also to find out the truth about Janeway's breakup with me in the first place, which was really messy, so that I was extremely eager to light a cigarette for myself, and only after smoking did I ask Robben, "Is this still necessary?" ”

Robben nodded solemnly and said: "Nothing will make people feel happier than losing and regaining, this is my own position, and I will tell you the deepest experience recently Maybe Mi Cai is not the ultimate destination for you!" ”

Robben's words seemed to ignite a fire in my heart, and I remembered that I would hug and kiss Janeway as before, and talk about life and the future without hesitation, so I really experienced the joy of losing and regaining in my imagination, and the happiness of the past that was about to be forgotten suddenly became clear, and I couldn't help but look back

The night of returning to the residence was so deep, so I kept sitting on the bed and looking out of the window, eager to break through the depth to make myself simpler, but Mi Cai sent me a WeChat, she told me: A week later, she will return to China, and the trip to the United States will also come to an end temporarily, but the joy of reuniting after a long absence is so light, and the night is more profound, I know very well: another week of calm, my life is about to undergo drastic changes
