Chapter 235: Neurotic Man
Gu Ran looked back at me, and finally nodded slightly, and the man sitting by the window from beginning to end did not look back at me and Gu Ran.
Grinding the carefully selected coffee beans into powder, I took out the siphon cup and put it in, after boiling the hot water at the temperature of alcohol, the aroma of the coffee suddenly stained the whole space, I can't make fancy coffee with bad latte art, but ordinary coffee can handle it.
When I brought the brewed coffee to the man, I finally saw his face clearly at this time, messy scum, slightly haggard face, looking a little vicissitudes, and he also gave me a particularly strange feeling at this time, but I couldn't tell what was different, looking at him in front of me, I subconsciously remembered the picture after I broke up with Gu Ran and Mi Qi at that time, and made myself unrecognizable.
The man still maintained his previous posture, staring out the window with some distraction, as if he was the only one left in the world.
Gu Ran cast his gaze a little helplessly, but I shook my head at her, and then pushed the pile of banknotes that the man had placed on the table in front of him.
I sat down back in my place, the rain outside didn't stop at all, but it was a good way for me to relax, because what had happened in the past few days had caused my whole spirit to collapse, and sometimes I was even doing something, and I didn't know what I was doing it for.
After a sleepless night, I finally felt sleepy after a quiet night, so I sat on the bench and lost consciousness unconsciously.
I fell asleep, I had a dream in a drowsy state, I dreamed that I was in an unknown space, where there was a thick fog everywhere, I lost my way home, and I couldn't find a friend, then a meteor suddenly flashed in the sky, and a woman with long hair and a shawl came to my side, I followed her all the way forward, and finally gradually saw a path in front of me, I wanted to go forward subconsciously, but I accidentally found that the woman's body exuded colorful light, Illuminating the whole world in front of me, I realized that the original path had always been under my feet, but I had always stood there and did not look for it.
Subconsciously my body twitched, and I woke up from my sleep, when I found that the lights were dim outside, and it was completely dark, but the heavy rain still did not stop.
The candle flame in front of me emitted a faint light, I subconsciously stood up, at this time a blanket on my body slipped to the ground, Gu Ran walked in from the door with a wooden retro umbrella, she carried two lunch boxes in her hand, after shaking off the rain on the umbrella, came to sit down next to me, and smiled: "You wake up, I bought the rice noodles you like to eat..."
"Oh...," I nodded, asking, "How long have I been asleep?" ”
"It's going to be more than six hours..."Saying that, Gu Ran opened the lunch box, pushed the opened rice noodles in front of me, and said, "You smell, I heard from my friend that this rice noodles are very delicious, so I went out to buy them for you..."
I nodded a little smugly, but my emotions were still in the picture I had dreamed of in my sleep, and I was so preoccupied with finding my way that I never saw the woman's face clearly, so that I didn't even know what she looked like.
The moment I turned back, I was surprised to find that the man who had been sitting by the window in a daze since before I went to bed in the afternoon had not left until now, and he still maintained his previous posture at this time, the only difference was that he had a cigarette between his fingers at this time.
I moved my cervical spine properly, and asked Gu Ran in surprise: "He hasn't left yet?" ”
Gu Ran glanced at the man, pouted, and said, "Who knows what kind of nerves he has, he hasn't tasted the coffee you served, just sitting there alone and smoking, it can't be a neurosis..."
I shook my head and said I didn't know, and after a moment of contemplation, I got up and came to the man's side with a cigarette, and finally couldn't help but open my mouth, and asked tentatively, "Dude, may you smoke a cigarette...... The one in your hand is gone..."
The man rolled his eyes back at me, took the cigarette from my hand, and said softly, "Thank you..."
I smiled and sat down across from him, looked at the thirteen boxes of Liqun cigarettes on the table, and said, "You also like to smoke this brand of cigarettes..."
"Well, I'm used to it," the man replied to me lightly, and then lit a cigarette for himself, still staring at the light outside the window.
I took a heavy drag on my cigarette and asked, "Is it because of feelings?" ”
The man looked at me again, then grabbed the box of cigarettes on the table, and hurried out of the place, braving the storm, leaving only the pile of banknotes crushed under the ashtray by the candlelight......
After the man left suddenly, Gu Ran also quickly came to my side, and looked at the figure of the man who gradually disappeared from our sight with me, and said curiously: "What did you tell him?" ”
I rubbed my nose: "It's nothing, put the money away, and if you see him again next time, give him the money back......"
Gu Ran looked at me puzzled: "Why do you want to give it back to him?" ”
I looked at the crumpled paper and shook my head, "I don't know...... Anyway, I feel like this money is very important to him..."
……
I returned to my place with Gu Ran and sat down, she carefully helped me take out the coriander floating on the soup noodles in the lunch box one by one and put it in her bowl, and said while eating: "You didn't sleep last night, this habit of staying up late has to be changed..."
I took a puff of cigarette again, and finally put the car keys in my pocket, the car keys I took out from home when I came, as well as the keys and bank cards of the house that Lu Hui handed over to me, in front of Gu Ran, and said, "This is what Lu Hui handed me a few days ago, let me help transfer it to you..."
When I put these things in Gu Ran's hand, she was stunned for a moment, and then quickly took a fish ball from my bowl and put it in her own bowl, and said very calmly: "If you don't eat this fish ball, I will eat it..."
"Well, you can eat..."I exhaled again, looking at Gu Ran who lowered his head helplessly, and after the cigarette on my fingertips turned into ashes and went out, I spoke again: "Why do you say that things have come to this point, whose marriage is not noisy, why do you have to use this step as a way to end..."
