After Ning Qingzhou left the Jian'an Building, he replied to Liu Han with a text message, talking about the general process of the interview, and was originally worried that offending Jiang Ziyi would affect Liu Han, but Liu Han mentioned that Manager Jiang took the initiative to complain: "The most fake person in the company, I don't know that he is the chief interviewer before, otherwise I will remind you in advance." ”

Ning Qingzhou came to Jian'an for an interview, and the first starting point was not to look for a job, but more to satisfy his curiosity, not to mention that he has provoked Jiang Ziyi now, and before he entered a company, he provoked a villain with real power in the company, and after joining the company, he will definitely be in trouble.

In fact, not only Jian'an, Ning Qingzhou didn't plan to choose any of the three families as a place to live, if he had the opportunity, he didn't mind going to see and visit, but the interest in joining in was not very great.

"I'm really sorry for the trouble, I'm sorry to invite you to dinner." Ning Qingzhou replied.

"It's okay, it didn't help, we have time to get together again."

After returning to Shinkai, the novelty of meeting old high school classmates at the train station has disappeared, and the scattered memories of high school years have been rolled into the railroad tracks, and if "high school classmates" is a gate, then it must have been written "stop here".

Liu Han is beautiful, talented, doing such a cool job, and being in contact with such a fancy world, it is very rare that she can suppress her sense of superiority to this point when facing Ning Qingzhou.

Ning Qingzhou had already clearly seen the gap between the two, but he didn't have the consciousness to cross over.

After the interview, Ning Qingzhou was not in a hurry to go back to the apartment, and took a taxi directly to the city, where he was going to buy a guitar and a dong flute.

When Ning Qingzhou was in college, in addition to the drum kit, the most familiar musical instruments were the guitar and the dong flute, at that time, in order to follow the trend to form a campus band, Ning Qingzhou specially enrolled in the class to learn the guitar and the drum kit, and by the way, he also taught himself the dong flute, now that I think about it, I actually feel a trace of inspirational atmosphere.

After walking around the musical instrument store for more than 20 minutes, I finally bought a yellow acoustic guitar and a Zizhu dong flute.

When Ning Qingzhou walked through the streets towards the subway with a hole flute and a guitar, he couldn't help but recall the days when he was rehearsing at school, but his mood now is not as high-spirited and secretly complacent as he was at that time.

Entered the subway entrance, took the escalator down, and then passed through a long underground passage, but just halfway through the underground passage, Ning Qingzhou saw a long-haired girl sitting on the ground against the wall, and there was a guitar in front of the girl, but all six strings of the guitar were broken.

Ning Qingzhou, like other pedestrians, looked at the girl curiously, and found that she was looking at the guitar in front of her with dull eyes and a blank face.

After taking two more steps forward, a picture flashed in his mind, and then he remembered the past incident in his third year of high school:

It was March, and the scores of the second quality inspection exam had just been released, and a boy in the next class was reprimanded by the head teacher and his parents for two days because his score dropped by more than 30 points.

However, just two hours before the boy threw himself into the river, Ning Qingzhou met him at the staircase, and the boy's eyes and expressions left a very deep impression on Ning Qingzhou, as if nothing could attract his attention, his eyes were open, but he was not looking at anything, he was not paying attention to anything; His expression is that he doesn't care about anything, he doesn't care about anything, it is a kind of thorough, complete detachment, and he gives up resistance to the world, which is a state that is greater than despair.

Ning Qingzhou stopped, pretending to be looking for a suitable venue for singing, but actually observed the girl with his peripheral vision, of course it was inconvenient for him to rush forward to talk, and it was even more unsuitable for calling the police to deal with it now, so he decided to take another way to test it first.

After looking around for a while, Ning Qingzhou put the flute against the wall vertically, then took out the guitar from the guitar bag, and then put the guitar in front of him to "ask for a reward".

After the preparations were done, Ning Qingzhou began to tune the guitar, because he had already tried the sound in the store, but it was done in two or three minutes, first a simple solo warm-up and courage, and then cleared his throat, the guitar began to take the prelude to "Angel's Wings", after a few notes like a beat, Ning Qingzhou began to sing:

Where are the fallen leaves going with the wind?

Leave only the sky beautiful

The sound of the dance

Like angel wings

Crossing my happy past

……

The refreshing song melody and simple guitar accompaniment float in the underground passage, although Ning Qingzhou's voice is melancholy and insufficient, but it has a kind of cordiality and peace, as if it is telling you an unsatisfactory love story with a relieved mentality, warm and moving.

Where love has been

The fragrance of yesterday remains

That familiar warmth

Like angel wings

Across my boundless heart

I'm sure you're still here

Never left

My love watches over you like an angel

If life ends here

Since then, there has been no me

I will find an angel to love you for me

……

By the time the chorus was sung, there were already seven or eight young people stopping to watch, a few couples, a few girls shopping together.

Although he is no longer on campus, Ning Qingzhou, who is already delicate, swept the strings lightly, singing such a song full of stories, and the chic energy brought out is still effective for girls.

"So handsome!" A girl whispered to her companion, "I'm going to release the money." Embarrassed, he walked over, threw ten dollars in his guitar bag, and hurriedly retreated, followed by several other girls who also came over to put the money in.

And the girl who was with her boyfriend was inconvenient to directly evaluate the singer's appearance, raised her head to look at her boyfriend, and asked in a coquettish tone: "Do you think it sounds good?" The boyfriend immediately understood and pulled out his wallet.

Where love has been

The fragrance of yesterday remains

After singing for the first time, Ning Qingzhou's attention was always on the girl opposite, but until the end of the first chorus, the girl didn't look up, so Ning Qingzhou had to continue singing.

I'm sure you're still here

Never left

My love watches over you like an angel

If life ends here

Since then, there has been no me

I will find an angel to love you for me

……

Finally, when she sang "I will find an angel to love you for me" for the third time, the girl's head moved, and then turned very slightly, as if she was looking at Ning Qingzhou.

"Great." Ning Qingzhou breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then finished singing this song smoothly.

After the song ended, the temporary audience who stopped praised "good" and "good" and then continued to catch the subway, Ning Qingzhou collected the money, counted it, and found that there were as many as half a guitar, and he was a little proud in his heart.

Ning Qingzhou put the guitar back into his bag, then walked up to the girl and said, "I saw over there that your guitar string was broken." ”

The girl stared at Ning Qingzhou, but did not speak.

"I bought this guitar new, too." Ning Qingzhou patted his guitar, laughed at himself, and said: "The last guitar was smashed by me because I broke up with my girlfriend, but I regret it now, because not only did I not smash my girlfriend back, but I also had to spend my own money to buy a new one." ”

The girl's gaze took away from Ning Qingzhou and landed on the guitar with broken strings.

"Actually, I'm not here to buy a guitar today, I'm here for an interview, because of a breakup, neglected work, and was fired by the previous boss, but today's interview was not very successful, a total of seven interviewers, the other six people all passed, only I was brushed down." Ning Qingzhou smiled bitterly: "I don't even believe in the words 'No Ji Tailai'." ”

The girl reached out to pick up the guitar, still ignoring Ning Qingzhou.

"Fortunately, I still have music, there is still hope, can it be worse?"

Ning Qingzhou has been talking to herself, trying her best to feel sorry for herself, but in fact, every word is reminding that girl that in this world, there are people who are more miserable than you, don't give up hope.

Isn't the most effective way to comfort a person is to find someone who is worse than her?

The girl slowly stood up, holding the broken string guitar and was about to leave, Ning Qingzhou waved her hand and said, "Goodbye, thank you for listening to me so much." ”

The girl walked a few steps, suddenly stopped, without looking back, and said, "Your vocal range is a little narrow, and it will limit you in the future." With that, he continued to walk forward.

"Thanks for the reminder, I'll practice well." Ning Qingzhou replied loudly, and then a smile bloomed on his face.
