Li Shi followed the stairs to the second floor, leaning down to watch, I didn't choose to disturb her in the end, if she could really find this place good, maybe she wouldn't try her best to help Lao Gou sell it.

I hung up the washed sheets, and tried to call Lao Gou again, these days, he seems to have blocked me and never answered my phone, isn't this a ghost in my heart?

In boredom, I took out the already worn-out acoustic guitar from the room, sat in the daylight, but did not play and sing, in a daze, empty myself, and then looked at this empty and lonely yard with a glance of the eyes, I pondered that after a few days, I would go to the flower and bird market to buy some potted plants and birds, build a shelf, and plant some creepers, so that this old yard between tradition and modernity can glow with some of its due vitality, at least not to be like me, to stay here, indulgent but with depression, fear to live.

Life is like a tricky old rich man, who will dig out all kinds of problems for kind people every day, and what is in front of me is not only problems, but also crumbling ideals......

"If you can sing, sing one." Li Shi upstairs suddenly opened her mouth to me.

I didn't pay attention to it, but put the guitar aside, and I didn't want to deal with her, so the two sides fell into a cold war because they disliked each other.

In this way, Li Shi and I have always maintained a tacit understanding that they are not happy with each other, no one said anything, if she didn't come to replace me as the store manager, just a stranger, came to my city, because fate lived in me, we may not be so opposed, in such a good sunshine, watch a nostalgic movie together, sing and sing, I will make her a cup of coffee, talk about life and ideals.

But with expectations comes disappointment. It is impossible for us to become friends, let alone confidants, and the ambiguity and romance that may have occurred with beautiful guests have also become distance...... As far as the current status quo is concerned, one thing will not change, and this relationship between water and fire will be maintained by us persistently.

……

After sitting for a long time, I really couldn't think of how to solve it, I played and sang "One", this niche and somewhat lonely song, now it is particularly suitable for my state of mind: "He is a boat in the upper reaches of the Fen River, the boat is filled with some regrets, regrets who left and he can't reach the future, or didn't come back, can only drift south with the waves, floating in this city, guarding the lonely dream, who can understand the scenery on the shore, he just passed by here, and no one will mention it again, stay in place and let time erase the past......"

Singing is really a good way to vent my emotions, just halfway through a song, I'm not so sad, just as I was about to sing the next paragraph with emotion, a pack of tissues impartially smashed on my head, not Li Shi who else?

I threw my guitar aside, looked up and pointed at her angrily, "Are you provoking me?" ”

"If you have to think so, then you are!"

"I think you're sick, and your morality has been eaten by dogs?"

She said to me with a smirk, "It seems that you can't spit ivory out of your mouth...... You sing well, but your character is really not good, talk to me about public morality, then let me ask you, your public morality is to occupy other people's positions and refuse to admit it? ”

I was so angry that I picked up the tissue and threw it at her, but against the wind, I fell off before I could reach her, and I couldn't help but be annoyed again: "You're just a goblin." ”

She seemed to enjoy the title I gave, and walked down with a joke, but she didn't care about the confrontation between me and her, and said to me: "Comrade Xiaoyu come over and discuss something with you!" ”

I couldn't wait to strangle this tormenting little goblin on the spot, how could I still have something to do with her, and I immediately wanted to veto, but after thinking about it, maybe I could take the opportunity to propose cooperation, so I said patiently: "Can you spit out ivory?" ”

Li Shi ignored my sarcasm and said patiently, "I heard that you have a sick sister, right? ”

Suddenly asked from Li Shi's mouth, let me feel a throbbing pain in my heart, my sister Mengmeng is just seven years old this year, is a child adopted by her parents, when she was three years old, she was found to have leukemia, the whole family has been running around for so many years, and she has not waited for the right bone marrow, thinking of her young life, which is about to come to an end so reluctantly, my heart hurts as if my heart was chopped up!

I retorted rudely, "What do you mean by that?" ”

"If you are willing to give up the position of store manager, I am personally willing to take the money out and bear all the costs of her treatment."

I held back the sadness in my heart, stared at her, and asked softly, "Do you think money is really everything?" If money can cure her illness, I can do anything, but without the right bone marrow, she will still end her young life early, yes, Mengmeng does need money to cure her disease, but it doesn't need your money in this way, you Li Shi is not a savior, and you can't save anyone with money......"

Li Shi's face was solemn, and she turned around and went to her room in silence, I, who has always disliked tears, reached out to wipe the tears from my eyes, and then raised my head and closed my eyes, but a steady stream of tears flowed down my cheeks and into my mouth, when is this fucking day the end?

The gears of life don't change because of anyone, and I can only grumble in this way, cursing, awe, and waiting......

……

It was another evening of anticipation, and I habitually stood by the river in front of the store with a teacup in my hand, looking out at the farthest part of the scenic area, to relieve my visual fatigue......

Li Shi in the store locked herself in the room, like me, she didn't eat lunch, she seemed to have been talking on the phone in the room, and fell into a long quarrel, I was not a villain, I roughly heard a few words, if I guessed correctly, it should be complaining about the status quo with Lao Gou.

Actually, I'm also worried, if I really provoke Lao Gou one day, and he treats me as an outcast, what should I do? And at this moment, I can only do this, bite the bullet, and can't show any concessions, so that Lao Gou feels that there is a reason for me to be tough, and I still have the value of existence.

The sun slowly sank in the west, and the air was full of lazy smell, at this time, Li Shi walked to the door of the store with a pencil case and a sketchbook, and did not say hello, directly ignoring my existence, and devoted herself to creation in the twilight.

I was about to stretch out my head to take a look, at this time the mobile phone in my pocket rang, it was Jing Qi calling, and I hurriedly turned my back to the side to answer the phone, she didn't seem to get up yet, and only said in a hazy tone after I connected for a long time: "Yu Hang, the activity I said in the morning, I have already helped you understand it, as long as you can pass the model selection, you can get the opportunity to promote it for free, cherish it!" ”

I looked at Li Shi not far away, and said in a low voice: "It's difficult, I'm afraid that my partner won't be able to handle it!" ”

"You must convince that girl, trust my intuition, as long as you partner with her, there is basically no suspense in this matter, don't give up this opportunity, and don't let me live up to this friendship, I wasted a lot of effort to get through the relationship."

"What did you do?"

Jing Qi was silent, and refused to tell me whether she was alive or dead.

There was a burst of depression in my heart that I couldn't vent, and I resented myself even more for breaking Jingqi's heart.

Jing Qi on the other end of the phone seemed to see through my thoughts, and comforted me softly: "Don't think nonsense, I won't do anything that crosses the line, everything always has a price, fortunately, I have the opportunity to repay your life-saving grace, as long as I can help you get through this difficulty, it is worth putting in some effort." ”

I don't know what to say to be grateful, but it's nice to have a friend who is in the snow......

The evening breeze is blowing, there are not many pedestrians on the streets of this scenic spot, this year's tourist season seems to be later than in the past, and it has been in a tepid situation until now, I began to worry again, if you don't take measures, and then continue like this, "Youtu Youth Hostel" may really come to an end.
