35
After Qin Ren returned to the bar, there were not many people in the bar, so it seemed a little empty, very quiet, and there was a feeling that things were wrong. He has made many friends in his life, passed through the world of countless people, and retreated from their world. After many years, those who were in his world have also left, and he is the only one left.
Life can't be repeated, time can't be reflowed, and youth is the same. Thinking of this, Qin Ren suddenly felt desolate in his heart, and a feeling of helplessness occupied his heart.
After a while, he suddenly felt dizzy and wanted to sleep, so he closed the door of the bar and went back to his rented room to sleep.
Qin Ren didn't know how long he had been asleep, he only knew that he had a long dream, and he dreamed back to more than ten years ago, worshipping the Buddha with Bubble. Yellow incense candle powder stained his body. He walked back to the rental room step by step with the foam on his back. In the dream, he also saw bangs, and bangs also saw him. But Liu Hai's gaze was extremely indifferent and resentful, and he only glanced at him and looked away. Then the scene transitions to the next place, which is the edge of a river with high banks and guardrails. The setting sun shone down, staining her face yellow, making her whole body seem to be wrapped in a soft glow.
Qin Ren felt that this scene was a little familiar, but he couldn't think of where it was, but it was certain that Qin Ren had definitely been there by the river, but he just didn't remember it.
When Qin Ren woke up, it was already dark, he didn't know how long he had been asleep, he just felt dizzy, and then he wanted to drink. Every time he woke up, he wanted to drink because he felt that drinking alcohol would be refreshing.
So Qin Ren returned to the bar. At this time, he noticed that there were already several people outside the bar, wearing colorful T-shirts and other clothes.
Judging by their appearance, they should be college students. This made Qin Ren feel very excited, he liked to see people full of youthful vitality, because the youth that belonged to him had passed away, so he liked to see the youth of others.
Among these college students, the one that caught Qin Ren's attention the most was a young girl in a white shirt, her fair skin and white face matched the white clothes well. Qin Ren felt that her eyes were very good-looking, like an abyss, as if she was about to fall down, but what poured out of that abyss was infinite youth.
The girl in the white shirt was called Liu Xiaoxue, and Qin Ren knew her name not long after, but they hadn't spoken and didn't know each other.
Those college students come here every night to drink, and they talk all over the world while they drink. Because I'm a college student, I often talk about where I want to go after graduation.
Qin Ren liked to listen to the content of their chat, which reminded him of the scene in 1992, when he had just founded Sanjiangqing. Whenever he thought of this, Qin Ren would feel happy, and at the same time a little sad.
Liu Xiaoxue didn't like it too much, because she felt that the content of their chat was too ideal. They always say that they have to wait until they graduate to show their talents, to seek their own place in society, and then to continue to develop, to become a big entrepreneur, or at least to work in the government. Some of them want to become scientists, educators, politicians, and county magistrates.
Liu Xiaoxue felt that they were too naïve, and they were completely just primary school students. Society wasn't as rosy as they thought it would be, and at the same time she felt a little too mature, and her teachers often said she was too precocious. She didn't know if it was good or bad.
Liu Xiaoxue's precociousness is manifested in the fact that she kissed when she was ten years old, opened a room with her boyfriend at the age of fourteen, and had a fetus at the age of fifteen. These are incredible things in the eyes of ordinary people, but Liu Xiaoxue doesn't think so, she doesn't think it's anything, she can do it as long as she likes it, and it doesn't hinder others, so she doesn't think she's wrong so far.
Life is a journey, and if you are wrong, you can't turn back, so you can only move forward with the wrong concept and the regret of loss.
Liu Xiaoxue's first thought of suicide was when she was nineteen years old, and she did not commit suicide because of regret and heartache, but because she felt very curious about where a person's consciousness would go after death, which made her feel very curious and eager to know the answer.
So she secretly set off on a dark and windy night, and in Gu Long's novel, the dark and windy night is a good day to kill people, and suicide is also a good choice.
However, her suicide did not succeed, and the specific reason was that she was saved. Her choice to commit suicide was to jump into the river, but later a man named Chen Ze saved her.
……
Qin Ren still hadn't found that riverside, he had a strong premonition, he must have been to that riverside, but he didn't remember it, which made him very distressed.
He didn't find the river, but he came across a man by accident. More than ten years ago, he had helped Chen **. Chen ** saw at a glance that it was him, and after greeting him, he invited Qin Ren to drink.
Although Qin Ren agreed, he kept thinking about the riverside in his heart. The setting sun, the soft orange light, that scene he will never forget.
Chen ** is now a successful person, he is very grateful to Qin Ren for his help more than ten years ago, and is ready to officially invite him to dinner in a few days.
Qin Ren didn't say much, he was only thinking about finding that riverside now. Chen ** saw his absent-minded appearance and sighed. The two left a short time later.
Qin Ren felt drowsy after returning to the rented room, so he went to sleep after taking a shower. In the dream, he saw the riverside again, and the bangs stood quietly. Unlike the previous dreams, this time it was not sunset, but morning.
The soft and somewhat dazzling sunlight shone on Liu Hai's face, making her look like a sculpture, but her gaze was still so resentful, which made Qin Ren's heart ache for a while.
Below the river are rough waves, a bit like the sea. Many white doves flew around in the air, and some of them landed on the shoulders of the bangs, who reached out softly like mothers and stroked the white doves as if they were familiar with them.
The dream was interrupted halfway through, because a hurried doorbell came from outside the room and woke Qin Ren up.
Qin Ren opened the door and found that it was Chen **. Chen ** smiled and said that he wanted to invite him to dinner, as he said a few days ago, he wanted to thank Qin Ren.
Qin Ren was shocked, thinking to himself if he had actually slept for a few days? That dream was obviously very short, but time passed so quickly. Thinking like this, he suddenly felt very hungry, so he went to eat with Chen **.
In the hotel, of course, Chen ** was not just to invite Qin Ren to dinner, he learned that Qin Ren used to be the chairman and founder of the "Sanjiangqing" company, and now his company is lacking a manager's position, and he wants Qin Ren to take it.
Qin Ren immediately refused, he was not interested in the company or anything now, now he just wanted to find the riverside, and besides, he was very hungry.
After repeated persuasion failed, Chen ** sighed, Qin Ren didn't want to be the manager, he had no choice, but he wouldn't give up. His company is short of talents like Qin Ren, and he said he hopes Qin Ren can think about it again.
Qin Ren didn't speak, and after eating, he left and walked towards the bar.
When they arrived at the bar, the college students were waiting outside, as if they had expected Qin Ren to come. They want to drink and prefer to come to Qin Ren to drink because the wine sold here in Qin Ren is very cheap.
Qin Ren felt a little lost because Liu Xiaoxue was not among them. Qin Ren likes to look at Liu Xiaoxue's eyes that are as vibrant as the abyss but slightly melancholy.
Those college students were talking about something while drinking, Qin Ren could vaguely hear the figures of 200 million, 300 million yuan, and Qin Ren also noticed that among those college students, a new student had been added. Tiny man, with big watery eyes, dressed in jeans, listens to their conversation with blinking eyes, and occasionally reveals a yearning gaze.
Soon, they were a little drunk, although they were talking about hundreds of millions of yuan, but when they checked out, they all pretended not to see it, and finally it was the little girl who settled the bill.
Not long after, Qin Ren felt a little sleepy. He wondered why he was feeling so sleepy and wanted to sleep these days. After drinking a little wine, Qin Ren came to his senses again, and after seeing that no one was coming, he closed the door and went out to look for the riverside.
