Chapter 142: Let's Play a Game
Night.
The moon is as cool as water.
Just after eleven o'clock, the next door was already chirping softly.
Like a little wild cat.
Sun Wen lay on his bed and turned over irritably, picked up the pillow and covered his head, closed his eyes and tried to force himself to sleep.
The sound insulation of the broken hotel is too poor, and you have to find a stable place to live quickly.
Fortunately, the cat's meow only lasted for a short time, and he didn't even know if it had stopped for five minutes, and he laughed in his heart, seizing the opportunity to fall asleep quickly.
Otherwise, it will be lively after twelve o'clock.
As soon as the empty brain brewed a trace of sleepiness, the other side seemed to be affected by the sound just now, and began to hum early.
"Grass!"
Sun Wen sat up and grabbed his hair, clenched his fists and wanted to knock on the wall, but stopped when he reached the wall.
Isn't that what hotels do?
People are just doing normal activities, but it's him, who is greedy to live in this small place, and it seems to be a little more reasonable.
Sitting back on the bed sullenly and listening for a while, Sun Wen took the clothes on the bedside and put them on his body, put on his wallet and mobile phone, opened the door and walked out of the residence.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, there were almost no people on the street, only cars in the middle of the road drove quickly, flashing their lights and moving away.
Walking aimlessly on the road, the cool breeze of the summer night, Sun Wen looked up at the stars in the sky, and then lowered his head to look at his shadow, and a sense of loneliness appeared in his heart.
Los Angeles said that it was not big, but it was not small, and he also stayed here for six years when he was in college.
Now I don't even have a place to live.
There was a hint of going home in his heart, but he immediately stopped itβββ what can I do when I go home?
A college student from a key university finally came out of the village, and went back to inherit the one-third of an acre of land in a gray way?
So what was the purpose of studying so hard in the first place?
If you have a chance to stay here, what can you do when you go back?
When the farm is busy, he goes to work in the fields before dawn, and only goes back to eat and sleep at night when he can't see anything, and when he is not working, he goes around bragging and playing cards, and occasionally goes to the city to do some odd jobs......
When you are old, you go on a blind date to ask for a wife, have a child, and then expect the child to get out of that ravine......
Sun Wen couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth when he thought of this, instead of living the kind of life that can be seen at a glance, it is better to starve to death in Los Angeles.
It's not easy to put down roots here, you have to work hard.
The convenience store in front of him was still open, and he walked in and looked at the shelves, "A pack of Nanjing, a lighter." β
"Hello, fourteen."
"Give."
Sun Wen paid the money and walked out of the store, opened the cigarette, lit one, and took a deep breath.
Xu hadn't smoked for too long, and this mouthful made him feel a little dizzy, so he stood on the spot and shook it twice, closed his eyes and calmed down before he regained his footing, and slowly exhaled the smoke he had inhaled.
Start a family, start a family, which one comes first and which one comes last?
He looked at the drifting smoke with some distraction.
Although the current salary is not small, for him, an outsider, if he wants to put down roots in Los Angeles, it is still far from enough, and the housing price alone makes people feel hopeless.
So you have to make a change.
Hopefully she'll wait until then......
After smoking a cigarette, Sun Wen threw away the cigarette butt and extinguished it with his feet, looked left and right, thought about it and walked to the right hand.
I remember there was a bar over there, so I went over there and had a couple of drinks and then went back to sleep.
After walking for more than 20 minutes, he didn't find the bar, but found a clear bar, he hesitated and walked in, anyway, he drank wherever he wanted.
The Qing bar, also known as a casual bar, is dominated by light music, without the excitement and passion of a general bar, with warm lighting and soothing music, which looks more like a cafΓ©.
Find a side to sit down, Sun Wen looked left and right at the decoration and environment of the store, and suddenly felt satisfied, he is now more suitable for being quiet alone, rather than noisy.
After two finger strokes on the menu, he looked up and beckoned, "Here's a cup with a high degree." β
"How tall do you want to be?" The bartender at the bar shook his glass and smiled and asked, "The highest?" β
"A little worse than the highest."
The bartender made an OK gesture, picked a moment among the piles of wine, and began to operate.
It was the middle of the night, and there were not many or few customers in the store, scattered around in small and low tones talking to their companions, and there were only three people sitting in front of the bar.
Sun Wen was not interested in greeting others, and others had no intention of making new friends, so they sat on one side and thought about their own affairs, and did not speak silently.
The bartender already had a job of chatting with boring guests, and after a couple of sentences, he saw that Sun Wen was not very sexual, so he didn't bother anymore and wiped his tools with a soft cloth.
The liquor entered his throat and burned all the way into his stomach, Sun Wen pursed his lips and paused for a moment before he let out a long breath.
Not bad.
"Little handsome guy, drinking alone?"
As the voice sounded, a faint fragrance wafted into Sun Wen's nose, and he turned his head to see that a woman with long red hair next to him had just sat down.
Dressed in a red long dress, with red high heels, exquisite makeup, flaming red lips and hair color complement each other, the whole person is like a red fire, full of temptation.
"Alone." Sun Wen looked her up and down for a moment before nodding in response, without saying more, he picked up the cup and took another sip.
Looking at this appearance, it should have come out to talk to someone?
"Together?"
Sure enough, the woman leaned in, her eyes flickering at him.
"It's just a drink, is there a difference between being together and not being together?" Sun Wen shook his head.
"A man drinks stuffy wine."
"What about the two men?"
"Two people can relieve boredom." She smiled and leaned the cup over to Sun Wen and touched it gently, "Isn't it?" β
"I just want to sleep well and not get stuffy." Sun Wen chuckled and refused.
"Your eyebrows are almost twisted...... the woman was halfway through her words, and when she saw Sun Wen frowning, she turned her mouth and said, "Can't you help me relieve my boredom?" β
Rejected twice, she still didn't mean to be angry, just smiled lightly.
Sun Wen looked at her for a moment, then raised his cup and gestured, "Just this one." β
Whether it's a bar or a bar, it's a place to have fun.
He took a sip of his wine, put down his glass and sighed.
In the hotel, here, even in Los Angeles, he was so out of place.
"How?" He asked.
As long as you don't pull him to have a one-night stand, whatever you want, go back to sleep after drinking this glass.
"How to solve something, small talk." The woman held the wine glass and shook it gently, and a pair of eyes rolled around him, "Are you a fitness instructor?" β
"It's not." Sun Wen shrugged, "Occasional fitness is like that." β
"And what do you do?"
"Artistic."
"Oh?" She was surprised, "I can't see it." β
"A lot of people say that." Sun Wen continued to shrug his shoulders, "But I am indeed a painter. β
She noticed Sun Wen's movements and winked at him, "It seems that you don't want to talk much." β
"It's okay, I'll relieve your boredom."
"It's not going to work." She took a sip from her wine glass, her lips wet with red wine, and she looked more and more rosy, "Why don't you play a game?" β
"......," Sun Wen muttered, "Yes." β
He is a little interested at this time, and he is idle when he is idle, so it is better to see what this woman wants to do.
