Chapter 40: The Other Side of the Sunshine

“Au

His mother, Mrs. Smith, was already dressed and waiting at the door of the newly rented high-end apartment, and the rent was borne by Mrs. Smith's company, H Group, as a welfare subsidy for executives.

Their father, Mr. Smith, did not return to Zhucheng with them this time, but stayed in Shanghai. One was for work, and the other was that he had said goodbye to Adam in the church in Shanghai. He is a Catholic and has no interest in the Chinese custom of returning to their roots.

“F*ck!” Au

the

After complaining behind my mother's back, I got up and freshened up, and it was torture to lose the right to sleep lazily on weekends.

Also, he never wanted to believe that Adam had left this world. He brought Adam's favorite drum kit and put it in his room. Obviously, a month ago, Adam laughed at his lack of progress in his drumming skills.

Adam's ashes are now placed in a small box and buried in the soil of his mother's hometown on the day chosen for burial.

He hurriedly took a shower in the bathroom, sorted out the smile on his face, and went out with his mother to go to the place where she was born. There was a little more gray hair between her mother's temples, and Adam's death was a big blow to her. She had always thought that Adam was living a good life, how could he suddenly choose to end his life.

It wasn't until they saw the deep cut on Adam's wrist that they had to accept it.

Au

the

Caressing his mother's shoulders along the way, relatives who had never met before wept bitterly in front of Adam's tombstone, and the cry shook the earth. On the contrary, it made their two relatives very embarrassed.

Adam's tombstone bears his Chinese name, Chen Yaren (1993-2013), who lived only twenty years when he died.

Au

the

's Chinese name is Chen Yayu, but it is not commonly used since childhood. Looking at this tombstone, which was only one word different from himself, he suddenly felt that the person buried deep in the soil was himself.

When she got home, Mrs. Smith shut herself in her room again and wept, and the next working day she was going to work as if nothing had happened. The workplace is an emotionless place.

Au

the

Beat the drum twice, trying to send the sadness in the heart. But it doesn't seem to work at all. He took out the renminbi in the drawer of his desk and asked to buy some alcohol, which was a weapon to anesthetize the brain.

S8 bar is the most worthwhile bar he went to in Zhucheng, where the audio and other hardware equipment can catch up with the general level of Shanghai, and there are many beautiful women. Most of the beauties in Zhucheng are very gentle, not as open and aggressive as those in the magic capital, and some will even take the initiative to hand over their hotel room number. The beauties of Zhucheng see him the most when they invite him to drink, which is also his favorite.

Adam formed a band before his death, in which he worked as a drummer, the band signed to an unknown small entertainment company, and debuted for more than three years without much improvement. When he said goodbye to Adam in Shanghai, there was also a bassist in attendance. Au

the

After chatting with him a lot, I realized that the Adam that my parents and I saw at home was just a deliberate performance by him, so that everyone's memory of him stayed four years ago. In fact, in the past four years, he has already had another side to the outside.

Au

the

Knowing that Adam was going to the bar, the bass player had told him. Because the band has not been doing well all these years, Adam has become more addicted to bar shopping.

Since childhood, Au

the

likes to imitate Adam, and it can be said that Adam is a little sun he chased when he was a teenager. After Adam's death, Au

the

The world is left in darkness, and I don't know where to go, and I can only rely on my intuition to catch the scent that Adam left in this world.

All he had to do was sit quietly at the bar, and beauties would flock to him until the last empty seat on the couch he was sitting on was also occupied.

He would tell lame jokes and tricks that would make everyone laugh.

This handsome boy with blond hair but fluent in Chinese is really likable. The bar owner even approached him privately and asked him to be the cowherd in the bar, and also offered a good salary.

"What do you think of me?" Au

the

Angrily rejecting the boss, he is not the kind of person who will sell his dignity for money.

He does this now only because he wants to.

In the S8 bar, in addition to him, there is also a new little beauty who is also very popular, but the little beauty is invited by the boss at his expense.

Au

the

I noticed her a few times, and even if she was wearing heavy makeup and sexy clothes on her face, it was difficult to hide her youth. She was very popular in the S8 bar, and was ushered into the VIP room after being surrounded by several middle-aged men much older than her in the outside hall and chatting a few words.

The bassist tells him that Adam has a special crush on student girls.

Today Au

the

The head seems to have been paralyzed by alcohol, and he needs more.

He stopped the little beauty and asked her what her name was. This made the women around him jealous. He ignored them and took the little beauty directly into the VIP private room. In order to keep her for one night, he could give the foreman a lot of money.

The little beauty had the same fake and gentle smile on her face as he had during the day.

"You haven't told me yet, what's your name?"

“Susa

。 ”

"Real name."

"Does the name matter so much?" The little beauty wasn't going to tell him.

He pushed her away from his lap, and he didn't like the feeling of bullying.

"Huh. Are you spending so much money just to know my name? The little beauty said with a smile, this blonde boy, she has also noticed him for a long time, and there will be no shortage of women around him at all.

"Can you change your clothes?" Au

the

Said.

"What?"

Au

the

Tell her that you want to see her in her school uniform.

"I didn't expect you to have such a hobby!"

The little beauty got up and went to the dressing room, where there were various styles of clothing to meet the needs of the guests.

Au

the

looked at the little beauty with heavy makeup on her face and a student uniform in a navy uniform, but she was still not satisfied.

"Take off your makeup."

"Why?" The little beauty was a little impatient with his constant demands, and she preferred to go straight to the point, and any strings attached to the transaction would be torture for her.

"I just want to see what you are, and the rest, I won't do."

Au

the

The statement made the little beauty wonder, "Then why do you spend so much money?" ”

"Because I do."

The little beauty took off her makeup and came back, losing the cover of her heavy foundation, and her face finally regained the youthfulness of her age. She should have belonged to the campus.

Au

the

Let the little beauty sit down and chat with him.

"My name is Au

the

, whose Chinese name is Chen Yayu. He solemnly introduced her. I have an older brother, Chen Yaren in Chinese, who committed suicide at home last month. ”

The little beauty's face showed astonishment, but this seemingly sunny teenager had such a heavy pain in his heart.

"I'm sad and don't know what to do?" Au

the

Choked up and sobbed, in this strange environment, in the company of strangers of this same age, he was finally willing to open his heart.

He told the little beauty a lot of stories about him and Adam, and he never dared to mention them at home after Adam's death, for fear of causing his mother to cry again.

Authe

Curled up and lay on the sofa in the private room. The little beauty gently stroked his long smooth blonde hair.

"You know what? I sometimes even feel like it's all a dream, and as soon as I wake up, Adam will reappear. But it doesn't matter how drunk I am or how long I sleep. When I woke up, Adam's room was empty. ”

"Your brother must love you very much." The little beauty said.

"Yes. He also taught me to play the drums. ”

Hearing the word drum, a trace of astonishment flashed on the little beauty's face.

"Will you too?" This micro-expression was Au

the

Captured.

"No, but I've known a few people who can play drums, and I think their hearts are so clean."

"Really?"

The little beauty's answer caused Au

the

"Then I'll play the drums for you." ”

With that, he got up and took the little beauty to the hall. The foreman saw her without makeup for the first time, and he didn't recognize her at once.

“Susa

, what are you doing! ”

"Manager, I'm sorry. I'll put on my makeup in a minute. ”

The manager knew that she was still young, but she was really likeable, so he agreed to let her continue to work here, and if someone else found out and reported it, it would be a lot of fines.

Fortunately, everyone's attention was on Au who walked on the stage talking to himself

the

attracted. He talked to the band that was stationed there to make himself a drummer and perform Lincoln's "Numb," his and Adam's favorite band.

He picked up the drumsticks, and the rhythm of the stage was under his hands. The audience danced with him! His long blonde hair danced to the rhythm, and the sweat left on his handsome face drove the women in the audience crazy.

“I've become so ti

ed, so much mo

e awa

e (I'm getting tired, but I'm more alert) I've becomi

g this, all I wa

t to do (I have been, what I want) Is be mo

e like me a

d be less like you. ”

When it came to the exciting part of the song, his voice even overshadowed the lead singer.

He slammed the drum hard, and the air around him vibrated with it.

The audience began to scream, Susa, who knew what was on his mind

But I heard his sadness vented with the music.

After the end of the song, he was surrounded by an enthusiastic audience, and finally escaped and hid in the private room with the little beauty.

"Hahaha!" They laughed together.

The little beauty wiped the sweat from his forehead for him, Au

the

But he couldn't help but kiss her.

But no matter how hard he tried, she kept her lips closed.

The little beauty didn't have enough strength to push his body away, but she gave him a hard slap.
