It wasn't until Mi Cai stopped crying that I let go of her, wiped the tears from her face with my hands, and whispered to her, "Sleep, I'll sit here with you, waiting for you to fall asleep." ”

Mi Cai nodded, I helped her lay down the pillow, helped her lie down, stroked her hair, and motioned her to rest quickly, she closed her eyes very obediently, but said to me: "Zhaoyang, can you sing to me?" ”

"What do you want to hear?"

"Faye Wong's "Reserved"."

I smiled: "This song is about a reserved woman, not a reserved man, so you should sing it to me." ”

"The woman in the song is no longer reserved."

I recalled the lyrics, and it seemed that it was really a reserved woman who became no longer reserved for a man she loved deeply, not only because she was afraid of loneliness, but also because of a heart that loved to the end.

I finally said to Mi Cai: "Why don't we sing together, one person and one paragraph." ”

Mi Cai nodded, and sang before me: "I have never resisted your charm, although you have never been fascinated by me, I always look at you with a smile, my affection is always light and full of eyes, I once thought that in the lonely night, you finally care about my room, you closed your eyes and kissed me, without saying a word and hugged me tightly in your arms, I love you, I love you to the end, for the first time in my life I let go of my reserve, let myself fantasize about me and you, you love me, you love me to the end, For the first time in my life, I let go of my reserve and believed that I could really love you deeply......"

When it was my turn to sing, I replaced all the lyrics with you, and you with me, until I finished singing with peace of mind.

Mi Cai looked at me and said to me with some resentment, "Why are you so bad? The lyrics have been changed beyond recognition by you! ”

"But the artistic conception hasn't changed, I sing like this to keep your leading role in this song!"

"You're really well-intentioned!"

I smiled and nodded.

Mi Cai's tone became lost: "I'm afraid you're laughing at me for not being reserved enough, right?" I always try my best to find you, but you don't want to see me. ”

"How so! …… Actually, it's not you that I'm afraid to see, it's the gap between us, and that gap makes people vulnerable. ”

"Zhaoyang, I will wait for you, and we will not be bound by the gap between us...... You have to work hard! ”

I nodded, and looked out the window again, the night was like ink, but in the distance, there seemed to be a star twinkling in the direction.

……

Leaving Mi Cai's room, I went to calculate today's accounts, and then started the "Perfect Travel Plan" promotion strategy on the computer, and when I came to my senses, it was already one o'clock in the middle of the night.

I rubbed my temples to relieve the fatigue, but the fatigue was only physical, and the longing heart was not tired.

I lit a cigarette, took a puff, and spit out heavily, I knew that one day Mi Cai and I would have to face this gap, and the results were nothing more than three.

First, the gap between me and her still exists, and the pain derived from the gap still tears at the fragile love day after day, year after year; Second, she has become materially destitute, and the gap finally no longer exists, but can she adapt to this life of luxury and frugality? Third, after hard work, I can finally compete with her in the business world.

I'm definitely willing to choose the third outcome, because it seems to be the best and the most conducive to happiness.

Perhaps, there is a fourth outcome: we are strangers, and in the end we only remember in the dead of night that we once loved each other, but the person we slept with was no longer each other.

……

The next day, I woke up a little late, and when I opened the door, I found Mi Cai wearing our inn's overalls and carrying two bottles of hot water towards the guest's room.

After knocking politely, two bottles of water were brought into the room.

When she came out, I stopped her and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

"Bring hot water to the guests."

"I mean, why don't you sleep a little longer?"

"I slept early last night...... Don't get in my way, there's still a room to clean up! ”

"Don't you like to run in the morning, I'll clean up the room, you go for a run."

Mi Cai urged me in turn: "It's true that you hurry up and wash up, the breakfast I bought is almost cold." Without giving me a chance to stop him, he pushed a cleaning cart from the corner of the wall and walked to another room.

I looked at her back and was stunned for a moment......

Come to think of it, the proprietress of the "Jiangnan Xiaozhu" family is nothing more than that compared to her now.

……

After washing, I ate the breakfast that Mi Cai bought for me and chatted with the boy who had been staying at the front desk to receive customers.

The boy's tone was as envious as ever: "Brother Yang, you really found a proprietress for our inn...... This is the most beautiful proprietress in Xitang, no, it is the most beautiful proprietress of all scenic inns in the country. ”

"She's not going to be here for long."

"Then is she the hostess of the inn?"

I asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”

"Of course, if it weren't for the hostess, how could she clean the room and bring hot water to the guests!"

I didn't say anything more, but I cherished such a day very much, because it was too short, too short for me to get used to.

When Mi Cai finally finished cleaning the room, she sat down next to me with a sense of relief.

I took a fried bun and brought it to her mouth: "You can taste it, it's very good." ”

Mi Cai took a small bite, and I handed her another cup of soy milk.

The boy next to him shouted: "Two, can you take into account my feelings as a lonely person when you show your affection!" ”

Mi Cai and I looked at each other and smiled, still not caring about his feelings, a cup of soy milk and one of us took a sip, making him look like a collapse.

Before breakfast was finished, there was a sudden roar of sports car engines outside the door, followed by a Ferrari 458 and an Audi R8.

The sudden appearance of these two cars made me feel irritated immediately, because I knew too well who the owner was.

Sure enough, Wei Ran and Mi Lian walked out of the two cars one after another.

Mi Cai looked at me, I tried to calm myself, and then signaled to her that I was okay.

Wei Ran and Mi Bin walked into the inn side by side, and Mi Bin opened her mouth first: "Sister, why don't you call me when you come back from the United States, if it weren't for someone from the United States to sue me, I wouldn't have known that you were back!" ”

Mi Cai replied simply: "Just stay for a few days." ”

Wei Ran looked at me, took the conversation, and said to Mi Cai, "Come back to see him?" ”

Mi Cai seemed to be very considerate of my feelings, got up and said to the two of them, "Find a place to drink something, let's talk again." ”

Mi Bin and Wei Ran nodded at the same time, and when they wanted to leave, Mi Bin asked me with disdain, "You opened this inn?" ”

"I drove it."

"It's really promising!"

Mi Cai frowned and reprimanded: "Mi Bin, you are enough!" ”

Mi Bin was not afraid to go toe-to-toe with Mi Cai, and said: "I just don't like him, what's so good about such garbage?" ”

I was on the verge of anger again, but I tried my best to control myself, and just smiled and said: "I also think that you are a cheap woman, but I will not write a sign at the door, Mi and dogs are not allowed to enter, so you have the opportunity to call at me so unscrupulously now." ”

Mi Bin was about to have a seizure, Mi Cai grabbed her, and motioned for Wei Ran to help, and Wei Ran also pulled her from the other side.

Mi Bin broke free of Mi Cai and Wei Ran, and nodded at me full of resentment: "I hope you won't regret your words and deeds today." Then he turned and walked out of the inn.

The song "Reserved" mentioned in this chapter, Yao Beina's version is also good. You can listen to it.
