In the winter of two thousand and eight, Hu Meiyin really didn't have a penny on her at that time, and there were a few Beipiao clans like her crowded in the cold basement.

When the snow covered the city, McDonald's and Starbucks were full of people, sitting in front of the windows with hot drinks in their hands, looking at the people who were in a hurry outside. They walked through every street in the city with blank faces, leaving rows of footprints on the snow. The big city, but it's cold. Hu Meiyin was standing in the corner, and she had been soaking instant noodles for a week.

She looked at the smiling people in the window, if she couldn't find a job again, go to Jia Xiaoliang, anyway, he said that he would do his best to support himself.

Shaking her head again, she couldn't think so, she couldn't delay him any longer, he had done enough for her. Life is really hard. She just wanted to eat enough now, and if she knew that this was the case, she would be working in those companies. At the very least, you can fill your stomach.

It was at this time that the man appeared, wearing a black trench coat with a collar that reached his chin. The eyes are deep and there are faint nasolabial folds on the forehead. He is a mature man in his thirties.

He looked at Hu Meiyin, who was squatting in the corner in thin clothes and shivering, and said, "Girl, my bar has just opened, are you interested in working there?" ”

She stood up, and was about to turn and leave, when the man spoke again, "Do you really want to live this life of fear every day for food and shelter?" ”

She thought of the cold basement where the gang of women were fighting for a few bucks, and she was fed up. She turned and looked into the man's eyes, "I'll go with you." ”

"But what can I do when I go to the bar?" She followed him.

"You're not happy to be a waiter, so do you know how to dance?" The man opened the car door and made a gesture of please, and the black sedan glowed black in the snow.

"A little." Hu Meiyin said lightly.

The man sat in the driver's seat, snapped his fingers, held the steering wheel with both hands, and turned his face to look at her, "Then you go to be the lead dancer, can you?" ”

Hu Meiyin frowned: "But ......"

"I know what you're worried about, don't worry, I'm here, just look for me if you have something." The man's gaze was firm, and Hu Meiyin nodded.

Since then, she has been living a nightlife in bars.

It wasn't always smooth at the beginning, with bright lights and light and shadows. Hu Meiyin admitted that she likes to dance in her bones, and she is very grateful to the man for giving her such an opportunity to make money and do what she likes. Here, she doesn't have to look at other people's faces, even if there are more men around her, she can't just ignore them if she doesn't want to get close, and she doesn't have to stammer anyone.

But God doesn't make everything perfect.

There will always be a few men who can't help but reach out and want to touch it. At first, Hu Meiyin would scream, and he would go to that man, that man, and he asked her to call him Lao Hu. Lao Hu told her that if she wanted to continue working here, she could only open one eye and close one eye to many things.

"A lot of things in the world are like this, when you open one eye and close one eye, you will find that life is actually not bad for you." Hu Meiyin fumbled with the bag in her hand, "Do you mind if I smoke?" ”

Wang Xixi pointed to the "No Smoking" sign on the wall.

Hu Meiyin lowered her head, "I'm sorry." ”

"When did you start smoking?" Wang Xixi remembered that although she was not a good student before, at least she didn't smoke or drink.

"That's when it started."

At that time, every time she was accidentally taken advantage of by others, she would hide in the corner alone and light a cigarette, at first she was not used to it, but then she gradually got used to it, just like she gradually got used to the work in the bar.

She had always only smoked men's cigarettes, the inferior ones, because they were the strongest, the most irritating to her lungs. She fell in love with the feeling of letting the smoke wrap around her mouth and throat, like someone who would never leave.

It didn't take long for her to live in Lao Hu's apartment. The reason is simple, she needs a lot of money to buy her favorite perfumes.

Lao Hu dotes on her very much, and she is lawless.

It was an afternoon, and the room was as dark as night after the curtains were closed, and it was necessary to use the light to see each other's faces.

After the intense exercise, Hu Meiyin lit a cigarette. Lao Hu has recently quit smoking, and his wife is pregnant.

"Xiaomei, do you know why I love you so much?" His voice was hoarse and magnetic, in his thirties, just the right age for a man, mature and innocent, with a stable and purposeful life. His body is younger than that of an older person, and his mind is more mature than that of a younger person.

Hu Meiyin just smoked rings from her mouth, and she couldn't spit out the rings one by one for anything.

"When I drove down that street that day, I saw you squatting in the corner, your thin body trembling in your thin clothes, and even though your hair was a little messy, I still saw your stubborn and beautiful face hidden under your hair. I feel like you need someone to protect you and be there for you. The man grabbed her with one hand.

Hu Meiyin snuffed out the eye circles in her hands, his love words were too beautiful, so she would sink if she was not careful, but she knew that she couldn't indulge in them.

"Do you love him?" Wang Xixi was shocked by this story, which was a completely different life track from her, "Do you want to marry him?" ”

"Sissy, that's what a good kid like you think. I never wanted to marry him. Hu Meiyin looked at the surprise in Wang Xixi's eyes, "As for love, I think on the snowy day when I first met him, I probably loved him at that moment." ”

He didn't love her, she knew that he only loved himself.

So half a year later, Lao Hu's wife gave birth to a son, and he began to gradually become indifferent to her.

He said to her, "Wait for me." But he didn't say what she was waiting for him to do, and he would marry her when he waited for him, she hadn't thought about it.

She was the only one left in the empty apartment, the large room, the dim lighting, the neat bedding on the double bed, she was used to sleeping on one side, and over time, there was a clear depression there.

She would see Lao Hu at the bar, he was the owner of the bar, of course he had to go, but she just watched him from afar. Have you ever had the experience that when you stare at someone long enough, that person will subconsciously turn back and search for your eyes? After she stared at Lao Hu for a long time, Lao Hu turned his head to look at her, but he didn't come to talk to her, and in the end, his gaze changed from application to blank, and he fled in a hurry.

Hu Meiyin smiled, just a coward.
