013 (three shifts today, three shifts tomorrow, ask for a monthly pass)

Leman struggled to get up and wanted to go back to her room to sleep, but her limbs seemed to be standing on the deck of a ship with rolling waves, and she swayed from side to side so that she couldn't stand steadily.

Her body tossed for a moment, she subconsciously grabbed the sofa to stabilize herself, closed her eyes and shook her head vigorously, calmed down for a few seconds, and took another step.

It only takes ten steps for her to go back to her room.

Gu Yang sat on the sofa, staring at her back with burning eyes.

Thin shoulder straps slipped from her thin, fair shoulder blades and hung down on her slender upper arms.

He smiled meaninglessly, stood up, and picked up Leman, who was dazed but still trying to walk in a straight line to get back to the room.

With a sudden feeling of weightlessness, Le Man's arms subconsciously climbed on Gu Yang's shoulders.

She raised her eyes to look at Gu Yang, her small but black and white eyes were wet, as if they were covered with a layer of ice and mist.

Gu Yang sighed.

The hand that was holding the back of his neck suddenly grabbed one hard, and he didn't care at all.

It was the mint smell of women's cigarettes and the astringency of foreign wine.

This taste made Gu Yang, who likes tobacco and alcohol, fascinated.

Over the years, he has tasted enough chemical flavors, and the crisp smell of tobacco and alcohol that is unique to Leman is his favorite taste.

With a muffled sound, Gu Yang kicked open the door and walked into the room with Le Man in his arms.

……

Outside the window, in the twilight, the old-fashioned air conditioner in the bedroom made a lot of noise.

Le Man got up, pulled up the tattered nightdress on his body, and entered the bathroom barefoot.

She doesn't hate Gu Yang, no woman would hate a man who is handsome, has a good figure, and has good taste.

So she doesn't regret it.

She calmly took a shower and came out, Gu Yang was still lying on the bed, staring blankly at the bed curtain, not knowing what she was thinking.

She ignored him, walked over to the dresser, sat down, and began to blow her hair.

Gu Yang looked at her when he heard the sound, stared at her quietly, and waited for the hair dryer to stop working, then asked in a low voice: "I'm sorry, I don't know ...... you."

"It's fine."

Gu Yang was surprised, and looked at her slender and neat back in a daze.

He thought that she would take advantage of this to hold him responsible, crying and pestering him, and he had long been prepared to properly settle her.

But she just made his heart messy and empty, feeling that he was the one who needed to be responsible.

"I ...... You ......" he swallowed, "are you really planning to quit?" ”

"Yes."

"If you want to do something else, how much do you need, just tell me. If you don't want to have a career, I'll give you a sum of money, you can arrange it yourself, buy a house, buy a car, buy a shop, and it's up to you. ”

The implication is that I can't give you anything but money.

Le Man didn't answer, silently pinned the long bangs with a clip, poured some transparent liquid and slapped it on his face, then walked to the closet and took a new nightdress to change into. 90 Literature Network

Her silence made Gu Yang's heart go up and down.

He was not afraid that Le Man would ask for money, he was afraid that she would be responsible for herself and marry her.

She knows Teng Xien, and when the time comes, Teng Xien will come forward to seek justice for her, and this matter will be ugly.

"There's a pharmacy down there, go buy some medicine for me." Le Man said suddenly.

Gu Yang came back to his senses, reacted to what she meant, was overjoyed, quickly got out of bed and put on his clothes, and soon went downstairs.

After buying the medicine at the pharmacy downstairs, he went back to Leman.

Le Man was cooking noodles in the kitchen at the time, he took the medicine in and put it on the countertop of the cupboard, and asked cautiously, "Do you want to eat it now?" ”

"I'll eat it on my stomach first." Le Man stirred the noodles in the pot, "Do you want to eat some?" ”

"Okay."

The noodles were cooked quickly, two bowls of tomato and egg noodles.

The two of them finished eating noodles relatively silently, and Gu Yang watched Le Man take the medicine with his own eyes, and then went home with confidence.

In fact, he didn't want to go back, he still wanted to spend the night here, Ke Leman said that he wanted to have a good rest at night, and sent him away in a few words.

On the way back, he kept thinking about how to deal with the relationship with Leman.

It is impossible to marry her, he is willing to fall in love, but considering that he is also thirty-six this year, he may marry a woman at any time because of the family's arrangement, and at that time he will break up with Le Man again, and both of them will be miserable.

He pondered and pondered, and decided to come over after work tomorrow night and have a good talk with Le Man. If she doesn't care that he suddenly gets married one day in the future, and doesn't care about being his girlfriend for the rest of his life, then he wants to maintain a relationship with her.

If she cares and can't accept it, then they can only end it like this. Originally, Gu Yang didn't want Le Man to make this choice.

He liked her now, and she attracted him more than any woman he had ever dated in the past.

……

After Gu Yang left, Le Man dialed the voice of the agent and assistant, and communicated with them about his whereabouts while packing his luggage.

"I'll go back to my hometown early tomorrow morning, and I won't be back for the time being, and there are some commercial performances that have signed contracts, and I have a schedule here, and I will go directly from my hometown when the time comes. If the audit is over, just close the studio, and I'll come back when the lease is up. ”

Her studio only renewed her contract with her landlord for five years last year, and it didn't expire so soon, so she didn't rush to deal with it, and went back and settled down now.

The agent and assistant were very surprised, and kept persuading her that everyone would have difficulties, so everyone stayed and faced it together, dealt with the matter, and started again.

Le Man smiled, and smiled very helplessly: "Let's talk about it later, I've not been in a good state lately, so I'll go back and rest for a while." ”

The agent and the assistant couldn't say anything more, and the three of them discussed the follow-up matters together, and the voice call ended.

Le Man called Teng Xien again, saying that he would go back to his hometown tomorrow and asked her to call him if she had something. Teng Xien was recently preparing for the case of going to Geneva at the end of November, and he didn't have time to talk to her more, so he hung up after a few pleasantries.

She put a few summer clothes she usually wore into her suitcase, and some commonly used skin care products and unfinished books into another suitcase, two suitcases, a guitar, and all her belongings.

Ten years ago, when she came to Beijing, it was these things; Ten years later, she left Beijing, and that's it.
