I sent a message to Xu Yijing, but unfortunately, Xu Yijing said that she had to work overtime at night.

"Drink more, it's okay if you don't come back in the evening." Xu Yijing sent me a message with a very low expression.

"Don't make a fuss! I'm annoyed. ”

"Who's messing with you, I'm serious."

I ignored her words, Xu Yijing saw that I didn't reply to the message for a long time, and sent another voice message: "Love and career can't be a double harvest, so you can keep the same." ”

"You don't care how much I've been wronged."

"What's there! If you want me to say, you don't deserve this wrong. Quitting and going home! I'll raise you. ”

I can't take her for granted. But I have to say that her words make me sound quite happy.

"You really can't come at night, can you?" I asked her again.

"I can't go. If I can, I won't go! Xu Yijing said, followed by a strange smile: "Do you really want me to go?" ”

"What if it weren't?"

"You can not have long brains, but I can't not have long eyes. I told you, I have to work overtime at night, so you can go to the meeting alone in the breeze and the moon, and have a good time! Xu Yijing said this with a smile, and she didn't reply to anything I said.

I put down my phone and sat in the car in a daze, the sun soaking me warm. I want to go to Nanluoguxiang at night, and I seem to have a faint expectation. But I realized that expectation, and I had the reason to suppress it. Xu Yijing can say it without marginality, but I can't help but think about it, after all, it won't be her who is embarrassed.

I clicked on Lin Jiangnan's WeChat, looked through my chat history with him, and didn't seem to say anything special except for work and Cao Hui's affairs. It's normal to think back to all the things we've known since we met.

We met because of Xu Yijing, we met because of work, and we became acquainted with Cao Hui. There is no deliberate shortening of the distance, nor has there been verbal hints of affection, what a healthy and frank relationship between men and women.

Breeze and moonlight.

I cheered up and drove away from my parents' house, first went back to Fuchengmen to put down the car, changed clothes by the way, and then took the subway and ran leisurely to Nanluoguxiang.

Nanluoguxiang is a tourist attraction during the day, and it is a bar street at night. Fortunately, in winter, it gets dark early, and it is earlier to greet customers with heavy makeup at night.

Lin Jiangnan and I made an appointment at a restaurant called 'Smack', not far from the Beikou subway station. It was still early when I got off the subway, so I wandered around the small shops along the street. There are many young people in the streets and alleys, entering in pairs, smiling like flowers, and condensing the appearance of love one by one.

I used to be like that. Xu Yijing said that I looked at Yao Feng's eyes at that time, and the word love was clearly written, as for what it looked like, I could only understand that I couldn't say it. Her words are simple, only saying that she is very good-looking, has a real light, and beauty can bloom and bubble.

Now I can see the love in the eyes of this young man and woman, but I can't help but wonder what the future holds for them. Will you be abandoned in the same place like me, or will you be like Xu Yijing, who will eventually hate each other in the years of hand in hand? Or will it be like Lin Su, love is worn out by the rough life, and the helplessness and resignation are full of space?

I don't want to look at love from such a pessimistic perspective, but it's not under my control. For love, I always scrutinize, be careful, and keep a distance.

When I was about to shake to 'smack', Lin Jiangnan's WeChat came and asked me if I had arrived, I stepped into the door of smacking and replied to him "arrived".

"Turn back." Two words popped up on the screen.

I turned around, and Lin Jiangnan was behind me.

The two of us found a warm and quiet corner to sit down, ordered, and after handing the menu back to the waiter, I proudly gestured a scissor hand, "Two more bottles of Qingdao!" ”

"Four bottles." Lin Jiangnan changed my order.

I looked at him sideways, "You're not driving?" ”

"I know what kind of car I'm going to drive to the bar." He took off his scarf and put it on the chair next to him, "Tell me, what's going on?" How did it suddenly become so serious that you had to resign? ”

My originally straight body fell down, and I sighed, "It's not just Cao Hui's." I really wasn't a complaining person before, but since I met Cao Hui again, I feel like a sister-in-law of Xianglin. ”

"That's not it, Xianglin's sister-in-law always says one or two things, you can't stop Cao Hui from acting like a demon here, there are always new materials." He smiled and poured me a cup of hot tea, "Actually, I want to complain about him too, he always takes advantage of me." ”

My expression changed, and my eyebrows almost reached the hairline, Lin Jiangnan was unaware of it, and continued: "Always let me bring him breakfast, never give money." ”

"Oh, that's really excessive." I say.

I'm so dirty.

The waiter brought the beer, and he and I each picked up a bottle and raised our hands to touch each other. The bottle made a crisp sound, and I poured my beer from my head, and the cold slid down my throat and into my stomach, filling my mouth with the aroma of wheat. I paused the bottle on the table and sighed, "Cool." ”

He laughed, "Come on, let's talk." ”

I rolled up my sleeves and told Lin Jiangnan what happened in the company today, and he listened very carefully, but he didn't delay eating. I grumbled and vomited, and came in with a stomach full of beer, and I felt a lot happier.

People are willing to be objective when their hearts are refreshed, at least I am. After telling Lin Jiangnan about this, I collapsed in my chair and laughed at myself: "I also blame myself for being stupid." You said that I was going to send that wallet anyway, so what does it matter if it's a little sooner or later? I had to throw it to the front desk and put it aside, and I had to write that the recipient was Mr. Cao Cao Hui."

"The heart is sinister." He took a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth. I nodded, but he changed his tone and said, "It's not your fault that people's hearts are sinister, what do you blame yourself." ”

"Poor people must have something to hate, don't they?" When I asked Lin Jiangnan, it could be regarded as asking myself: "You said that I am also a thirty-year-old person, how can I live so simply?" ”

He looked up at me, "Are you introspective?" Or are you boasting about yourself? ”

"What do you think?"

"Boast about yourself."

"For a thirty-year-old, that word alone is not a boast."

He put down his chopsticks, took out a napkin to wipe his mouth, and said disapprerovingly: "My mother has been quite simple all her life, and there is nothing wrong with it." ”

"If you say that, I can't say anything." I laughed twice and picked up the vegetables, "Your parents are in Xi'an?" ”

"My parents are gone."

I poked my chopsticks into the plate, and I felt that my hands were stiff, and I didn't know what to say for a while. Fortunately, he did not pause, and continued: "Who said that when you are old, you must be mature and sophisticated, isn't it good to be pure-hearted? ”

"Those who have not gone through the wind and waves are stupid, and those who have experienced the wind and waves are still simple, and they are pure-hearted." I said, "Silly innocence and innocence are two different things. I shrugged and laughed, "Maybe I've lived a better life so far, so I'm just stupid." ”

"Why do you say that about yourself?" He picked up the wine bottle and touched it with me, "Who has never experienced something when they are so old, the same thing feels different in different people, and the wind and waves are defined by themselves." Pure kindness is pure kindness, not stupidity. ”

I thought for a moment, "You mean, I have a big heart?" ”

Lin Jiangnan also thought about it, and then said with a smile: "After you summed it up like this, it seems to mean so." ”

"Thank you, just as you praised me." I held the bottle up again.

My wine was at the bottom, his wine was dry, so I got up and went to the bathroom. I looked out the window boredly, it was already dark outside, and I couldn't see anything but my own face reflected in the glass. Very ordinary, the face of a woman in her thirties.

I smiled to myself with a simple and kind smile, and I felt very bored. Generally speaking, generally if there is nothing to boast about, I will praise my temperament, and I don't even have to praise my temperament, so I have to say that I am kind. So, was I given a good person card by Lin Jiangnan?

I don't have Xu Yijing's pungent self-confidence, nor Lin Xu's gentleness and virtuousness. I don't fall, but I don't work hard either; I'm still independent, but I'm not very thorough; I'm not ugly, but I'm not pretty, I'm not fat or thin, I'm not poor or rich.

I've only lived out two words in the past 30 years - ordinary. But I'm a good person.

Ha ha.

"Let's go, change places." Lin Jiangnan came back, didn't sit down, and directly picked up his coat. I also stood up and got dressed, trying to call the waiter to settle the bill.

"It's over." He said.

"Is it so vulgar? Still rushing to check out? ”

"If I'm not vulgar, you have to be vulgar, so I'll do it."

"I'll drink for a while, please." I held out my finger and pointed at him, "You can't be vulgar anymore." ”

"Okay." His hand came out of the sleeve of his coat and poked it straight at my fingertips, "Deal." ”

The night is already thick, there are many fewer people in Nanluoguxiang, and I don't know when the wind will blow outside. The north wind whistled in from one end of the alley, leaving behind a series of howling shouts, and then whistling out from the other end, like a ventilation duct.

I made a mistake and wore a down jacket without a hat, and now my head was exposed to the wind, and I couldn't open my eyes. I lowered my head and walked against the wind with the heavenly spirit cover, wishing that I could become a king and retract my head into my chest.

When I was walking against the wind, I suddenly felt a warmth on the top of my head, and a warm and soft thing covered me. I looked up and saw that it was Lin Jiangnan who was putting his scarf on my head, and I stopped him: "It's okay, you can wear it." ”

"I have a hat." He ignored my refusal and insisted on taking his scarf off my head, then wrapped it around my neck and tied it in a knot at my chin.

His scarf was thick, so the knot was a bit too big to fit under my chin, and as soon as he let go, he jumped up and put it on my nose. Lin Jiangnan dragged it down and stuffed it hard, almost pushing me down.

I quickly put my hand out of my pocket, "I'll do it myself." ”

After tidying up the scarf, I felt much more comfortable, like a zombie returning to my soul, soft and warm all over. I asked Lin Jiangnan what I am like now, isn't it funny, Lin Jiangnan looked at it for a moment and said, "It looks like an Android robot." ”

In view of the low temperature and strong wind, Lin Jiangnan and I didn't go too far, and randomly found a bar called "Zai Xiang" and got in. There is a singer singing in this bar, although it is not a weekend, but the first floor is almost full, and the two of us went up the small staircase to the attic on the second floor, the staircase is too narrow, the ceiling is too low, so that Lin Jiangnan's head slammed on the door frame, and there was a crisp sound, and even the singer's agitated singing could not be covered.

I was startled, and quickly pulled him to sit down in the empty seat next to him, and then touched the top of his head.

"It's not broken, is it?" I looked at my fingers and there was no blood.

"It's not broken."

"Could it be a subarachnoid hemorrhage?"

He looked up at me with his head covered and smiled dumbly. I also laughed: "A few years ago, after kowtowing to my head, I came to Baidu, and I almost thought I was going to die when I was done." Well, I'm also a person who has been through the storm. ”

"You remember." He brushed his hair twice and stopped caring about his head. The bartender came over and asked us what we were drinking, and I ordered a cup of Long Island iced tea, and Lin Jiangnan still wanted a beer.

"Long Island Iced Tea is not tea." Lin Jiangnan reminded me.

"I know!"
