Chapter 43: Habits
On a lonely night, I was the only one in the quiet yard, and I didn't know where Xiaoliang and Xiaobao went. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After more than a month of getting along, I seem to be used to having another figure in this courtyard, but the figure is not here in this silent night.
Walk into the room, put on your coat, light a cigarette, and head to 'Mood Mayday'.
At night, the winter night of Jinsha Road is so quiet, the quiet needle drop can be heard, there are only a few pedestrians in the old street, I walk alone under the street lamp, the back is so lonely.
When I came to the coffee shop, there was a burst of heat, and I looked around and there were only a few young men and women in the shop.
At the front desk, Qiao Yi and her girlfriend nested together to watch a TV series.
I walked over and knocked on the table, Qiao Yi raised his head and looked at me suspiciously.
"Are you sure you're here tonight?"
I wondered, "So where should I go?" ”
Qiao Yi chuckled and said, "Shouldn't you go to Fengqiao tonight, you know, old place." ”
Of course, I know what Qiao Yi is implicit, but it doesn't matter to me anymore, tomorrow may be an eternal dividing line between me and Jiang Yan.
Seeing that I didn't speak, Qiao Yi mixed a cup of coffee and handed it to me, saying, "Brother, listen to my advice, you and Jiang Yan are really not suitable." ”
I still didn't speak, inexplicably sad, just drinking coffee, Qiao Yi continued: "You two love each other deeply, but you both have your own helplessness, and if you insist on being together, it will only bring more pain to both of you. ”
Qiao Yi patted me on the shoulder and sighed.
During this period of time, all kinds of emotional entanglements have surrounded me, and I have never wanted to forget the figure that has been wandering in my life for twenty-five years, but is it really that simple to forget a person?
That back always appears in my mind inadvertently, and it seems to be within reach, but it is actually thousands of miles away.
She is so happy, Ou Zexiu is so perfect, they are such a match, I can't convince myself to possess everything in Jiang Yan at all.
I close my eyes: hehe, just let you smile in his arms......
In the middle of his thoughts, Qiao Yi pushed me and motioned for me to look behind.
Turning around, a woman's scent wafted into my nostrils.
Xia Yuan looked at me with a hint of a smile, she leaned over and said to Qiao Yi: "Brother Chic, bring me a cup of 'good mood'." ”
Qiao Yi snapped his fingers and said, "Goodbeautifullady"
"Good mood, what the hell? He made it for you? ”
Xia Yuan blinked and nodded arrogantly.
Sitting by the window, I used to look at the intersection, which was the only way for her to go home, and I used to sit here after work and wait for her to get off work, and then pretend to pass by and invite her in for coffee.
Time has passed, all this is drowned in the long river of memory, and no matter how cruel the reality is, it cannot go back to the past, so it can only be faced head-on.
Xia Yuan lowered her head and drank coffee, today she has faded her mature temperament, and a pink sportswear makes her look a little more youthful.
"Is it good?"
Xia Yuan held her chin, pushed the coffee in front of me, and said, "You drink it, it's in a good mood." ”
"Is that good, you've drunk it?"
Xia Yuan frowned and said, "What's the matter, do you still dislike me?" ”
I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "No, no, no, I'm afraid you'll dislike me." ”
Seeing that she didn't care at all, I took a few sips, and a refreshing sensation followed.
"Honey?"
Xia Yuan smiled and said, "It's delicious, it's special." ”
At this moment, I faced her, and my heart welled up
An indescribable emotion, this woman bears the pain that very human beings can bear, she still faces this ordinary world with a kind heart, but her world is so extraordinary, the death of her father, the decline of her family property, the intrigues in the shopping mall, what does she take as a weak woman to face all this......
I looked at her a little distractedly, and I was about to say something, but I couldn't help it.
I thought to myself: maybe she didn't want people to know all this, after all, she always treated this cruel world with a kind face.
"What are you thinking?" Xia Yuan said suddenly.
"O'..... Not... It's nothing. ”
"Are you thinking about Jiang Yan's engagement banquet tomorrow?" Xia Yuan looked at my eyes seriously.
I looked away from her and lit a cigarette.
Xia Yuan saw that I didn't speak, and she was silent.
After a while, I said, "Why did you come last night?" ”
Xia Yuan looked away from me and said, "Passing by, I saw it." ”
Then I thought of what Wang Yuan told me, and seeing that she was reluctant to say it, I changed the topic and said, "What about Xiaoliang and Xiaobao?" ”
"I don't know, it's time to go home." She looked at the time and said, "Why don't we go back, I'll have to feed them." ”
Leaving 'Mood Mayday', I walked side by side with her on the deserted Jinsha Road, and the two of us were silent.
Until a loud whistle caught my eye, and when I looked back, a white Maserati slowly passed by me.
Ou Zexiu slowed down, pulled down the window, and said to me with a polite smile: "Luo Bing, welcome to the third floor of the Xuan Pavilion tomorrow night." ”
My eyes were fixed on the woman next to him who had haunted me for twenty-five years, and in the darkness of the night, I couldn't see her facial expression, only that she kept looking ahead.
I felt a cramp in my heart, and Ou Zexiu nodded and waved at me, "Bring your girlfriend with you, welcome." ”
Another gust of wind blew and disappeared into the night........
I lost my mind and shuffled back to the courtyard with heavy mechanical steps.
At the door, the little boy squatted in front of the door, saw us coming back, and greeted us with his tail wagging his tail.
Xia Yuan didn't say a word along the way, and when she returned to the yard, she was pruning the potted plants with scissors, and I had the impression that I myself was not so careful to take care of the 'partners' who accompanied me for countless lonely nights.
Looking at the back of this woman, I smiled shallowly: why can she live with a normal heart, while I live with an ugly mask every day.
For some reason, the heartache didn't seem to be so strong, and I walked over and whispered, "Can you come with me tomorrow?" ”
Xia Yuan didn't look at me, still pruning the leaves with scissors, I stood next to her and smoked, and after a while she turned her head and said, "Do you really want me to go?" ”
I chuckled and nodded.
Xia Yuan looked at me with a smile and said, "Then in what capacity should I go?" ”
"Of course it's a ..... woman"
Of course it's a girlfriend, I just wanted to say this, but halfway through the words, I held it back, she is the current CEO of Yamei and I am a three-no product in society, this gap is self-evident, am I qualified to let her be my girlfriend?
