Chapter 31 : People who are afraid of being alone
Lin Chu played with the wine glass in his hand, and the transparent glass was mixed with the brown liquor. Once upon a time, there was a person by his side who accompanied him, drinking wine and talking boundless nonsense.
The lights in the bar were too flickering, and Lin Chu was a little upset. The bartender at the bar shook his arm frantically, trying to mix the wine in the jug more evenly, so that the guests would look at him approvingly after drinking. In order to achieve this goal, he also played several tricks. Does this really make the wine taste better? Lin Chu didn't know, he only knew that the glass of wine in the bartender's hand sold for one hundred and ninety-eight yuan.
Lin Chu glanced at his phone, it was already half past eleven in the evening. How many of the people who are still in the bar at this time will take the wine in their hands seriously? It's just that I want to get drunk or find some sexual encounters. Those who take time out of their busy schedules to have a drink, and then brag to the people around them about the cocktail culture they don't know much about, I'm afraid that they will sleep with their wives and children at this point.
In fact, Lin Chu was very envious of those people, although they occasionally went in and out of the bar, they all had a home. At least in Lin Chu's heart, they can be regarded as reasonable "righteous gentlemen". Looking at those people who were twisting their waists at random on the dance floor, Lin Chu was a little disgusted, but after thinking about it, he seemed to be no different from them. They were on the dance floor and themselves at the bar. Lin Chu just doesn't like sports.
It is inherently a blessing to be alive. Lin Chu was very glad that he could still sit in the bar and drink, but some people could only get drunk in their dreams with a wine bottle. Lin Chu drank all the cheap foreign wine in his cup.
"Is there any Cabernet Sauvignon?"
Lin Chu shook the wine glass in his hand and said to the bartender at the bar.
"Sir, this is not a high-end Western restaurant, Cabernet Sauvignon needs to be drunk with food to drink the soul."
"Cut ......"
Lin Chu hated that bartender very much, every time he came, he could see this person on duty.
Many people objectify red wine, and they always think that it is a high-end thing, and people can feel the wonderful taste of it in the mouth when they think of it. But no matter how good the red wine is, it is the same for Lin Chu. He doesn't know how to taste wine, and drinking is just a kind of sustenance for him, and he needs to use alcohol to numb his thinking brain so that he doesn't understand it so clearly.
As for Cabernet Sauvignon, this type of red wine is Yu Zhiqiu's favorite. He said that the mellow and light taste of Cabernet Sauvignon gave him ambivalent feelings, which he loved.
The first time Lin Chu got drunk was the Cabernet Sauvignon he drank with Yu Zhiqiu.
It's the day of the beginning of June again,
I'm wearing wonderful makeup,
Listen to you tell a touching story.
There is no love and hate in the story,
Only the taste of berries,
It's like this glass of wine in your hand.
You don't sleep anymore,
We continue to live simple and ordinary lives.
I don't have any more thoughts,
We continued to write light-hearted little poems.
You say, that's how two people live.
I said, that's what June should look like.
Lin Chu engraved this little poem in his mind.
This was written by Yu Zhiqiu to Lin Chu, Lin Chu only remembered that they drank a lot that day, and when he woke up, Yu Zhiqiu stood on the balcony and watched the heavy rain outside, with a sparkle in his eyes. Lin Chu could see the wings behind him, that was Yu Zhiqiu's yearning for the sky. Those eyes are fantasies of beauty. Lin Chu was rarely a little flustered.
Lin Chu also had a heartbeat feeling for the first time, and it was a kind of love that transcended gender.
Listening to the loud music in the bar, Lin Chu tried to get drunk again, but the inferior alcohol with a spicy entrance and no aftertaste made him feel nauseous even worse than being drunk.
"One more ......"
Lin Chu pushed the wine glass in his hand, and the ice cubes in the cup collided with a beautiful sound.
The bartender at the bar looked at Lin Chu, who had the word depressed written on his face, and asked cautiously,
"Sir, would you like to try a new cocktail of my own?"
"Cabernet Sauvignon is delicious?"
The bartender was also a little depressed, and this guest was always competing with Cabernet Sauvignon.
"Have a drink, be strong."
Lin Chu took out the cigarette case from his pocket, thought about it and put it back. took out another lollipop from his bosom and waved it at the bartender,
"Eat?"
The bartender shook his head, this strange guest often came, and every time he came over, he was in a different mood, and he was also used to serving this person.
"I don't know how to enjoy it."
Lin Chu gave him a blank look, tore open the package and ate it.
In fact, Lin Chu didn't think that the lollipop in his mouth was delicious at all, it was still strawberry flavored, and the smell of food essence filled his mouth, even covering up the taste of cheap wine just now.
Yu Zhiqiu doesn't like it either, only Yu Zhiyu likes to eat this kind of child's stuff.
"Your wine, sir."
The bartender handed a glass of stronger wine to Lin Chu's face,
Lin Chu stared at the wine in the glass, bubbles bubbling in the dark brown liquor.
"You kid fooled me with Coke?"
The bartender was taken aback by Lin Chu's words,
"Tease you, boy."
Lin Chu stirred the wine in the cup with the lollipop in his hand, and then drank it all.
"It's strong, another drink."
"Sir, this wine is too high, and it's easy to get drunk."
Lin Chu pointed to the people around him,
"How many of you still have this point with you in the bar, and how many of you want to leave sober?"
"But sir......
"Don't give a damn fuck!"
This glass of wine was indeed very strong, and Lin Chu felt that his mood was very irritable.
"Let's have another drink."
Lin Chu adjusted his breathing, he didn't like to lose his temper, he was a humble gentleman, gentle and elegant, and he definitely couldn't lose his temper.
The bartender had no choice but to pour him another glass.
It's really boring to drink alone, you can't get drunk when you drink, and you don't have anyone to accompany you when you're drunk.
Lin Chu felt that everything around him was ridiculous, whether it was the men and women on the dance floor, the bartender behind the bar, or himself sitting in front of the bar.
The deeper you go into the night, the more you look like the walking dead, but you have your own thoughts.
"Handsome guy, would you like a drink?"
A woman came beside Lin Chu, Lin Chu turned his head and glanced at it, and knew that this woman's old face was under the thick makeup, and he wanted to vomit because of the smell of perfume.
"Get out."
"Neurotic!"
The woman left angrily, Lin Chu drank all the wine in his hand, dropped the money and left with a lollipop in his mouth.
The night was really not quiet, and a cool breeze blew. Lin Chu bit the lollipop in his mouth, and his teeth hurt. After all, he took out the cigarette in his pocket, and he couldn't light it when he wanted to, because the wind was blowing at the wrong time.
If Yu Zhiqiu was by his side, he would definitely lift his clothes to help Lin Chu block the wind.
"Fuck!"
Lin Chu smashed his lighter,
"Mingtou buys a windproof one."
"Yu Zhiqiu, you're also a bastard......"
Walking alone on the street, his shadow stretched by the street lamp for a long time. Lin Chu touched his arm, the bite that was bitten by Yu Zhiyu at noon still hurts in retrospect.
Not everyone is as gentle as Yu Zhiqiu, Yu Zhiyu has worked hard to deceive himself.
Looking at the tooth marks on his hand, Lin Chu kissed it.
It's still early, Lin Chu doesn't want to go home, he still wants to find a place with more people to stay for a while, and sleep there when he is sleepy.
Yu Zhiqiu is gone, where does he still feel at home, staying alone in an empty room, it is no different from squatting in prison.
The cold wind blew away the clouds in the sky, and the stars were clearly visible in the night sky.
"One ...... Two ...... Three ......"
Yu Zhiyu tried to look at the stars, sitting on the balcony and counting them one by one.
Lin Chu walked on the road, and when he looked up, he could see the one he wanted to see.
The two of them under the stars are both lost in the world, and the place where their fates meet is where the story unfolds.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lan Qing felt that he had had had a long dream, but he knew in his heart that it was not a dream.
Li Er appeared again, but this time after Lan Lan's death.
"Lan Lan is not dead."
"What do you mean?"
Lan Qing was not surprised by Li Er's appearance, Lan Lan had also dreamed of Li Er. This time things are getting more and more confusing.
"Mr. Death, now is not the time for you to be sad and sad."
Lear maintained his demeanor as always,
"Lan Lan's death is what she owes you, and this is God's punishment for her."
"But God was reluctant to let such a beautiful girl fall, so he gave her a chance to be resurrected."
"God wants to see how you protect her."
Lan Qing's face was solemn,
"Are you sure this is a punishment for Lan Lan? Not for me? ”
"Mr. Death, do you think there is anything more painful than death?"
"The dead have nothing to worry about, and the living continue to suffer."
Lan Qing had seen this kind of scene countless times, and now he was deeply immersed in it.
Li Er suddenly laughed, he stretched out one hand to cover one of his eyes, and the other eye stared at Lan Qing.
"Mr. Death, you have experienced death, but have you tried death countless times? Parting will be numb, but the pain of death will never be numb. I've been through this pain too many times. ”
Lan Qing really wanted to kill Li Er in front of him with one punch. It's a pity that he can't do it, and now Lear is just an unreincarnated soul. He doesn't understand anything, he only compares what he has experienced with other people, and he forgets that he is just a derivative personality.
"Conceited imp."
Lan Qing pursed her lips,
"Who is the God of your mouth?"
"It's ...... fate"
"Mr. Death, from the moment you became the Grim Reaper, fate began to write love poems for you. You've always been in other people's stories, but you've long forgotten that you're the main character of the story. ”
"The final answer is up to you to find it, Lan Lan's fate, your fate is all written."
Li Er looked at Lan Qing quietly, her gray pupils still charming.
Lan Qing still hated those gray eyes, and that unpredictable feeling made Lan Qing very uncomfortable, as if everything was going to get out of control.
"Why are you talking to me about this?"
"If you can, please let me be reincarnated, Lear can already walk, and I can only appear in your mind."
Li Er suddenly showed a pleading gaze, and his gray eyes showed a lonely look.
"Does what happened last time have anything to do with you?"
"Nope."
Lan Qing stared at Li Er for a long time, sighed, and sang an elegy of death.
The wall clock on the wall began to move, and a golden glow appeared around Lear.
"I really hope to see you again, Lan Qing, if I haven't forgotten you......"
The moonlight shone into the living room, and the bucket of potato chips on the floor rolled to Lan Qing's feet.
The gray eyes were not extinguished, and the loss in the eyes could still be seen through the moonlight.
"It's getting interesting."
"I didn't expect us to meet so soon......"
