Chapter 74: Mr. Chic
While waiting for the negotiation with the senior leaders of Lotte Mart, I did not go back to the town, and stayed in the city with Chen Qingyi for the past two days.
Today's calendar says that the year is bad, and everything is not appropriate, so I was bored in the hotel and did not go anywhere.
The sky was raining, and I knew that when the rain passed, winter would be closer to me.
I sat on the bed with my tablet and watched Wong Kar-wai's "Chongqing Forest", I liked the gray tones in Wong Kar-wai's films, the fast and slow rhythm of the picture, and I preferred the dialogue of the characters with decadent colors, but everywhere can reflect the truth of love.
Light a cigarette, let the cigarette in your hand and the cigarette in the hand of the actor in the movie fill the air, and you will be decadent, as if you are lost in the misty forest of love.
In the past two days, I have not been in contact with Angel, as I said, I will not force her, I will give her enough space for her to make her choices that are true to herself, she is an adult with independent thinking, and I believe that she can take responsibility for her own choices.
......
After watching a film, it was time for lunch, although Chen Qingyi asked me to go out for a serious meal, I still chose to order food in the hotel and solve the lunch in the room, I didn't want to go anywhere, the whole person seemed to follow the rain outside the window and loosened.
After lunch, I sat on the bed and watched the film again, still watching Wong Kar-wai's film, I seemed to be suspected of deliberately making myself decadent, but so what, in this situation, am I still in the mood to sing a song "Today is a Good Day"!
There was a knock on the door, and I knew that Chen Qingyi had come to comfort me, a powerless person.
"'98 Lafite, are you interested in trying it?" Chen Qingyi said to me with a bottle of red wine and two goblets in her hand.
"You brought it from Nantong?" I asked, surprised.
"Yes, it's so pleasant to drink some red wine and watch a movie on this rainy day." Chen Qingyi uncorked the bottle as she spoke, poured some red wine into each of the two goggles, shook it and handed me a glass.
I took the wine glass from Chen Qingyi's hand and took a sip, the taste was very positive, and my emotions were brought up.
I turned on the TV, still chose Wong Kar-wai's "In the Mood for Love", sat on the sofa and watched it, while Chen Qingyi sat next to me with a wine glass and watched it with me.
There is a line like this in the movie: "It was an embarrassing relativity, and she kept her head down to give him a chance to get close." He didn't have the courage to approach, she turned around and walked away......"
I didn't taste it, "Gu Dong" took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and my brain then simulated the picture in the line, imagining myself as the man who didn't dare to approach, and who the woman who gave the opportunity was, I was a little unclear, maybe it was Shen Man, maybe it was Mo Han, or there was no such woman at all.
Chen Qingyi took off her shoes, sat cross-legged on the sofa, and watched the movie very intently, she must have understood something from this movie.
I once watched this movie, but I didn't understand it vaguely, after a few years, I saw it more thoroughly than before, maybe this has something to do with what I have experienced more, and I have a deeper understanding of love.
Love is a choice that has no specific form, but is full of helplessness.
.......
After watching a movie, Chen Qingyi and I also drank a bottle of red wine, Chen Qingyi was a little dizzy, lying on the sofa and fell asleep, I carried her to the bed and let her lie more comfortably, while I lay on the sofa, staring at the phone in a daze.
I was expecting the phone to ring suddenly, because it meant that Angel would give me an answer, and sooner or later I would have to face it, so it was better to face it earlier, but I was less apprehensive, and I accepted it regardless of whether the outcome was good or bad.
I waited for a long time, and I didn't wait for Angel's call, I believed that this was a difficult choice for her, so I thought optimistically: Does it prove that I occupy a very important position in her heart, so she is so entangled, so late to give an answer.
It was darker again, the wind whistled through the windows with a terrible sound, the rain was heavier, splashing on the glass windows, and the whole world was gloomy.
I rolled over, smothered my face in the couch, and didn't look out the window, so my world went dark, and I fell asleep a moment later.
I had a dream that I went to the wedding of Angel and Yan Zhiyuan, I applauded and blessed them with a smile, and my generous performance made me the protagonist of the wedding scene, and everyone applauded me and called me "Mr. Chic".
I seemed to enjoy the title of "Mr. Chic", so I behaved more generously and meaninglessly, so that in the end I even believed in myself, and I did not have any heartache at all, I was just a passerby in Angel's life, a bystander at her wedding.
When I woke up, it was already half past five in the afternoon, I sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette, reminiscing about the dream just now, thinking about the title of "Mr. Chic", I laughed self-deprecatingly, can I really be as chic as in the dream?
I don't know the answer.
......
After a while, Chen Qingyi woke up, drank half a bottle of red wine, which seemed to give her a headache, she pressed her temples and asked me, "What time is it?" β
"It's already dark." I told Chen Qingyi that in my opinion, as long as it was dark, there was no difference in what time it was.
Chen Qingyi looked out the window and sighed softly: "It's still raining!" β
"Why, don't you like the rain?"
"It's half past five, and if it doesn't rain, in the small village in the mountains, you can see the sunset and the smoke rising!" Chen Qingyi said with a look of longing on her face.
I imagined the picture described by Chen Qingyi: the sunset is poetic, and the dusk is picturesque, and I sighed for a while: "It's beautiful, I can live in such a place for a lifetime, it doesn't matter to me." β
Chen Qingyi lifted the quilt, sat on the bed, looked out the window, and said for a while: "I won't." β
"Why?"
"Because it's sung like this in the song, although the poetry is beautiful, I only have you in my heart!" Chen Qingyi smiled and said.
I shook my head and sighed, "You people who have fallen into the mortal world are so kitsch..... It's boring! β
"Not everyone can be as chic as you, even if they are faced with the life-and-death choice of love, they can deal with it calmly." Chen Qingyi looked at me and sighed.
Chen Qingyi's words seemed to bring me back to the dream just now, and I nodded in a chic way to admit that I was so indifferent when faced with the choice of love life and death!
"Zhang Yixi, how about calling you Mr. Chic in the future?"
"Wouldn't it be too high-profile?" I said to Chen Qingyi in a joking tone.
Chen Qingyi shook his head and said: "You are so resolute in the face of Lin Xi's change of heart, and you are so indifferent to Mengmeng's true confession, you have always done this, so you are not high-profile at all, you are Mr. Chic!" β
After Chen Qingyi finished speaking, I was not complacent because of the so-called "chic"!
Anyone can have a hard mouth and act, but only he knows what he feels in his heart, and he still remembers looking at Shen Man's back when he left gloomily, and the heart of "Mr. Chic" was instantly broken.
......
The message prompt of the mobile phone sounded unpredictably, and I knew that it must be a message from Angel representing the verdict, "Mr. Chic" hurriedly lit a cigarette for himself, and then walked to the cabinet where the mobile phone was placed.

PS: Every time I write about the plot twist, a group of trolls, these trolls have a characteristic, they usually don't show up, they will be scolded when they show up, look at the account and don't even collect the book. I am particularly disdainful of such a person, and in reality it is estimated that everyone owes him..... What are you! Do you know respect? Readers who are more familiar with me know that every time I write a chapter, I smoke a lot of cigarettes and put a lot of effort into writing it, so they will not complain, silently support, and even if the economic conditions are not good, they will vote for writing... There are also some readers who do not vote for it despite financial difficulties, but they will also leave a hard time in the book review area, which is understanding and respect! I'm just as gratefulγγγγγγ Respect is mutual, you don't respect the fruits of my labor, I won't respect you, for this part of the people, I only say: turn left 100 meters, there is a garbage can, please consciously enter the box, don't affect my mood here...... Don't think that reading my book is to give me face, you don't have such a big face!
