Chapter 9: Avatars
He Mu residence
Today, He Mu did not go back to school, but returned to a house that his parents bought in his freshman year, this house has always been lived by him alone, he usually rarely comes back to live, maybe the regular cleaning aunt once a week comes more than him.
He Mu is not from Yangcheng, but Sushan, a northern city far away from Yangcheng, because his parents work here and he goes to college here, so they settled in Yangcheng.
After He Mu took a shower, he sat in the room to revise the paper, looking at the text on the screen He Mu typed out a paragraph and deleted it, and finally gave up without changing a few words, just looked at the computer and sat motionless for half an hour.
He Mu came back to his senses and glanced at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock, he turned off the computer, got up and left the desk, and looked at the mobile phone thrown on the bed thoughtfully.
He Mu lay on the bed and refreshed the WeChat message page over and over again, but there was no another message reminder, he clicked on Wei Lan's avatar and looked at it carefully, crossed it out again, clicked on it and crossed it out again.
If he's not mistaken, the caricature of this avatar is himself.,The back of this comic is still drawn by himself.,But it's just a simple outline with a pencil.,As for why he drew this.,It's a long story.。
He Mu looked at Wei Lan's WeChat, hesitated, or opened the chat interface and typed, "Hello Wei Lan, I'm He Mu." Click send, and after sending it, He Mu turned off the WeChat interface, threw the phone aside, put his head and closed his eyes with his hands, waiting for Wei Lan's message.
Five minutes later, there was no sound on the phone, and He Mu thought that it might be too late, and he had already fallen asleep.
On the other side, eleven o'clock in a bar is the most lively time in the bar, Wei Lan just drank a glass of beer, another glass was handed to her, Wei Lan glanced at the wine in her hand, she was really cowardly, she really couldn't drink.
"Hurry, hurry." A fashionably dressed girl applauded and looked at Wei Lan happily, urging her to drink quickly.
Wei Lan glanced at the wine in his hand, raised his head, and drank it all.
"It's been a long time, and the amount of alcohol hasn't increased." It was a man with gold-rimmed glasses who spoke in a proper manner, but he was very beaten as soon as he opened his mouth.
Wei Lan made a gesture to him and got up and walked out, she had drunk a lot of wine just now, she wanted to go out to take a breath, and as soon as she walked out of the door of the bar, the surroundings were instantly clear.
Wei Lan found a seat on a nearby bus stop and sat down, it had been a long time since he had been to a place like a bar that shook his head.
After sitting for a while, Wei Lan took out his mobile phone to look at the time, there was an unread WeChat message, and when he clicked on it, he Mu sent "Hello Wei Lan, I am He Mu." ”
It was already half an hour ago.
What should she get back?
Wei Lan took a deep breath to keep himself awake and slowly replied, "Hello." ”
Looking at the chat page, she chuckled, this avatar seemed a little too blatant.
This painting was accidentally seen by Wei Lan in her freshman year, it was just a line drawing at the time, she felt that this was very similar to He Mu she saw for the first time, and later used software to draw a similar back and fill in the color, and it was only later that she learned that the painting was He Mu.
After a while, Wei Lan received He Mu's reply, "You haven't slept so late?" ”
"Didn't you sleep too?"
"Something."
"Oh, you're busy."
Looking at Wei Lan's reply, He Mu didn't know how to reply for a while, they didn't seem to be familiar enough to speak freely, He Mu slowly typed two words and replied, "Well, you rest early." ”
Wei Lan turned off the mobile phone interface and got up and returned to the bar, seeing that one of these people had already drunk and collapsed on the sofa, Wei Lan pushed the person with his hand in disgust, and the person lay there and waved his hand and didn't move, Wei Lan laboriously dragged his bag out from under the man, and it seemed that his friend had drunk a lot.
Today, Wei Lan was in the dormitory, and suddenly received a call from a former friend, Mingyu, who came back from abroad, called a few friends and wanted to get together.
When Wei Lan arrived, he knew that in addition to Mingyu, there were two former classmates, but Wei Lan was not familiar with them, and there were two girls Wei Lan didn't know at all, and only after introducing him did he know that one of them was the girlfriend of that classmate, and the other should be Mingyu's suitor by listening to her tone and performance, Wei Lan thought to himself what a bad situation this was.
It was too noisy in the bar, and Wei Lan typed "I'll go first" on her phone. Then he showed it to Mingyu, and after Mingyu saw it, he grabbed Wei Lan's hand and said loudly to her, "I'll send you back." ”
Wei Lan broke away from Mingyu's hand and waved at him to say no, then turned around and walked outside, this should be the last time she will meet Mingyu.
Walking out of the bar, Wei Lan straightened her hair, revealing silver tassel earrings on her ears, which matched the black dress she was wearing, and a pair of black stiletto heels on her feet, which looked tall and thin overall.
Wei Lan didn't take a taxi, and took a blurry full-body photo with her mobile phone when she passed by a glass wall, and posted it in the circle of friends without a text.
A person like her who hasn't posted a circle of friends for ten days and half a month, and after a while, there were dozens of comments under this circle of friends, Wei Lan looked at the comments and thought in her heart, don't you see that there are still more than a dozen people who haven't slept?
"Still out there waves, hurry up and get home." This was commented on to Mulin.
Wei Lan got on the night bus home, looked at the comments one by one, and picked a few to reply.
"Still out there waves, go home early." This was commented on by Mu Lin at first glance, and Wei Lan skipped it directly.
"Go home early." This was Qin Yang's comment, and Wei Lan replied, "Okay." ”
After replying, Wei Lan put away her mobile phone, looked at the houses and billboards outside the car window, and the cars that quickly overtook the buses, thinking about some things that she couldn't figure out herself.
school
"Wei Lan, Wei Lan, look, look."
In class, David quietly handed the mobile phone to Wei Lan.
Wei Lan put aside the phone that David had handed over, because she was blocking her from taking notes.
"Wei Lan, look." David picked up his phone, clicked on a photo, and handed it to Wei Lan to show her again.
"Who?" Wei Lan looked at the girl in the photo who she had never seen once, and looked at David with doubt.
The photo is a girl with long hair in a light blue dress, standing on the podium, Wei Lan really doesn't know who this is.
"Leng Ziyan." David clicked on another photo to show her, "He Mu's ex-girlfriend, you don't even know?" ”
He Mu's ex-girlfriend?
Wei Lan really hadn't seen what He Mu's ex-girlfriend looked like, but she had heard a little bit about it.
"Our school?"
David thinks she was asking if she was at our school?
"The art school next door is studying painting. One of my former classmates was also in this school, and Leng Ziyan was very famous in their school. ”
These photos were all posted by her classmate in the circle of friends, Leng Ziyan seems to be giving some kind of speech when he returns to school, and he is very popular.
"Oh." Wei Lan nodded after listening.
"Oh? You're just an 'oh', big brother, she's the ex-girlfriend of someone you like, so you're going to have to react a little bit else, right? ”
David looked at Wei Lan anxiously, his expression did not change, and he shouldn't have reacted like this when he heard that the ex-girlfriend of the person he liked was back.
