Chapter 17: A Show Without an Ending

This time Angel replied to me with an MMS message, but it was a text message that seemed to be very reciprocated, because she also sent me a landscape photo, in the photo there is a river, on the side of the river is a very European style building, and a long street, there are many wooden benches on the long street, and a black wrought iron street lamp, because of the crowd on the long street, the photo is not very quiet, but it is still very beautiful.

I imagined that at this moment, Angel was walking on this long street, looking forward to lingering, or sitting on a bench looking at the shapes of ** people passing by with loneliness.

It turns out that at this moment, we are all so lonely!

.......

I don't know if Angel found Lin Xi's SRX in the photo, but she really didn't mention it, and there wasn't even a word on her MMS, so I don't have to speculate, maybe this hazy way is more suitable for us now, at least we can still communicate, which is much better than saying something too late.

"Thank you for the photos, I like them very much, and I use them as desktop pictures for my phone." I didn't think too much about it this time, so I replied to Angel with this message.

Anqi's reply was also very fast: "Your photo is also good, and it is now my desktop picture." ”

"Is this a kind of fate?"

After a while, I received a reply: "If you and I talk about fate, it is really far-fetched!" ”

"Perhaps."

After that, Angel didn't text back, and the short exchange between us ended!

My mood is surprisingly calm at this moment, I can also feel Angel's calmness, her words are no longer the original "sports car girl" atmosphere, she has changed! Or have we all changed...... This change is still given to us by the years.

.......

I don't know how long I sat here, but a figure gradually approached the foot of the mountain, and in the moonlight, I finally saw that it was Lin Xi.

I was not surprised by her arrival, she had traveled all the way from Nantong to Shandong, and she must have come to chat with me.

I moved out of a place and motioned for Lin Xi to sit down, and Lin Xi smiled and sat down beside me.

I was still playing with the white lighter in my hand, Lin Xi looked at it, but did not speak, she held her knees with both hands, looking up at the sky dotted with moonlight.

"Yixi, let's talk for a while." Lin Xi's gaze shifted from the sky to my face.

"You find a topic." I smiled and said, there is a tacit understanding between me and Lin Xi, whoever proposes to chat first when bored will be responsible for finding a topic for chatting.

"I think we're all getting a little old." After a long silence, Lin Xi said to me.

I looked at Lin Xi, and the years had not left a trace on her face, and her skin was still smooth and fair.

"No, it's still so white and tender." I answered.

Lin Xi shook his head and smiled, pointed to his chest, and said, "I mean mentality." ”

It turns out that I misinterpreted Lin Xi's meaning, if you talk about mentality, we are indeed old, not only me and Lin Xi, but also the people around us, although most of us are not married, but not married just shows that we have gained regrettable failures in love!

"yes, we're all old." I said in amazement, as if Zhang Yixi rarely deliberately shows his boring and childish side now.

"We are all old, but none of us understand what love is!! ....... Yixi, what do you mean by love? ”

I was silent for a long time and couldn't give an answer, and faces appeared in my mind: Zuo Lan, Lin Xi, Wang Mengmeng, Shen Man, Mo Han, An Qi....... Finally, I said to Lin Xi: "Love may be a show without an ending...... Contains all the ridiculous, scorching, and crazy. ”

Lin Xi was silent, and finally smiled, not knowing whether this smile recognized my statement, or thought that I was just talking nonsense.

.......

I don't know how long we were silent, but we finally started talking about the next topic, this time I found it in a very casual situation: "How are you and Colin, are you planning to get married?" ”

Lin Xi shook his head and said, "I'm a divorced woman, so I don't have too strong a desire for marriage...... Leave marriage to the age of 30 before you think about it. ”

I think Lin Xi should get married, and having a family will also have a place to rely on, but this is just what I think, I don't know if it's right, so I didn't impose my ideas on Lin Xi, just nodded.

"What about you? Are you planning to get married? ”

"A person who doesn't even have a girlfriend is too far to talk about getting married." I smiled wryly and said.

"But you're old." After Lin Xi finished speaking, a pair of beautiful eyes flashed again, looking at me with oppression.

Often when I was oppressed, I needed a cigarette, and I felt in my pocket, only to find that the last cigarette had just been extravagantly smoked by me.

Without smoke, I didn't want to speak anymore, so I ignored Lin Xi's oppressive gaze and stared at the sky in a daze.

.......

I don't know when the moonlight changed its angle to reflect the ground at the foot of the mountain, the mountain seemed so quiet, my eyes became hollow, the whole world seemed to be without joy or sorrow in my eyes, this mood was so subtle that it was difficult to describe.

"Yixi, can you go back to Nantong with us?"

I turned my head to look at Lin Xi, and there was no hint of banter on her face, and perhaps this was the real motive for her coming all the way to Shandong.

I pursed my lips and replied, "Not going back." ”

"Why, there is so much misery here!" Lin Xi's tone was slightly excited.

I shook my head: "You're wrong! The mountains are full of ruptured splendor, which you can't see, but I can see it! ”

"Why are you so stubborn? We have many friends in Nantong who can help you here...... Here you can only sell your physical strength and get a pitiful reward! ”

I kept calm and said, "I don't want you to become the next Shen Man. ”

Lin Xi gritted his teeth and looked at me......

My tone slowed down: "I really appreciate your concern, and I know that you are the one who really cares about me Zhang Yixi, but I really don't want to go back to Nantong, where I always feel tired, an indescribable tiredness....... It's different here, I can even walk through every street here because no one cares about me, and I feel like a rolling, hot firework........ This ease and freedom makes me feel like I'm going to be reborn here one day, you know? ”

"I don't understand!"

I smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, just respect my choice." ”

Lin Xi was silent, and in her silence I could see an extreme incomprehension.

"Lin Xi, tell me, what did you gain on Highway 66?"

Lin Xi raised his head and looked at me, and said after a while: "Sun, moon and stars, free and easy!" ”

"Did you enjoy the experience?"

"Hmm." This time, Lin Xi nodded almost without hesitation.

"For me, it's Route 66, a place of healing....... Someday I'll go back to Nantong, but it's really not now. ”

Lin Xi's eyes were a little shaken when she looked at me, she may not be so insistent at this moment.

I struck while the iron was hot and said: "This doesn't mean that I haven't succeeded in Nantong, pay attention to my Weibo, I will share a little bit here, I promise you that one day you will see a Zhang Yixi who has broken out of the cocoon here and turned into a butterfly!" ”

"Hmm."

I patted Lin Xi on the shoulder and gave her a smile that I hoped she would be relieved.

.......

"By the way, please do me a favor."

Lin Xi nodded and said, "You say." ”

"After returning to Nantong, help me keep an eye on Han Feng's news, I have to find this person......." I finished speaking and exhaled a mouthful of sullen air that had accumulated in my heart.
