Chapter 44: Lovelorn Shelter
There is no comparison, but I don't feel it, when I saw Gu Xiaoxiao's face blushing and panting, and the beads of sweat falling down the sideburns, I realized that my body had really changed.
Although it is close to the downtown area, after all, it is already the second half of the night, the whole street is very bright by street lights, but there are not many pedestrians, I am worried that it is not safe to leave Gu Xiaoxiao alone.
She pushed me hard and said, "Go quickly, don't delay time, we must find out Liu Yan's situation tonight." ”
"I'll go slowly, waiting for you to come along." Liu Yan's matter is urgent, and Gu Xiaoxiao can't leave it behind.
Gu Xiaoxiao smiled and said: "You're still afraid that I'll be taken away by a wolf, I'm in my twenties, and I can't ask for a wolf to bite me, go quickly!" ”
"Then you go to the coffee shop over there to sit and rest, and when I find Liu Yan, call you and tell you the exact address, and then you can come over." I looked around and pointed to a café on the side of the road that was still open.
Gu Xiaoxiao nodded straightly: "Okay, I'll go for coffee and wait for your call." ”
I watched her enter the coffee shop, and then I ran forward with confidence, and ran for more than a mile, and ran into Yunlu head-on, Yunlu pointed to a bar across the road and said, "People are inside." ”
"Good work." I was grateful.
Yunlu waved his hand: "You go in, it's mixed inside, be careful yourself, I don't like that kind of atmosphere, just wait for you outside the door, call me if you have something." ”
Yunlu's personality is obviously softer than Yunshuang's, so I smiled at her, said thank you, and entered the bar.
As soon as I entered, I was stunned.
On the dance floor, all kinds of men and women twist their beautiful postures to their heart's content, and there are people standing at the bar, in the booths, and even in the corners, the business is too good.
The lights were not very strong, and there were many people, so I tiptoed through the crowd for a while before I finally locked on Liu Yan's figure.
At that time, Liu Yan was standing in the position of the bar, leaning on a burly man, who was close to others in all kinds of styles, looking ...... How to put it, a bit of debauchery.
Liu Yan is very beautiful, and her family conditions are also very good, except for talking about a scumbag, I really have nothing to say, I have never seen her like this, which makes it very difficult for me to adapt.
I squeezed through the crowd and leaned over, not daring to disturb her directly, but silently watching her every move not far behind her.
It should be Liu Yan who found the burly man first, a strong flirtatious man, the man is also very handsome, but without teasing, Liu Yan's eyes swirled a few times, he posted it, got together and talked affectionately, and after a while, his hand was attached to Liu Yan's waist.
When I saw this scene, the whole person was angry, and I wanted to rush forward and pull away the salty pig hand, but Liu Yan didn't seem to mind, and I also wanted to see how it would develop next, so I kept holding back.
The two chatted for more than ten minutes, and the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic, and the man said something in Liu Yan's ear, and Liu Yan immediately smiled like a flower.
I chuckled in my heart, according to the normal procedure, she was going to leave with someone? Could it be that she has been such a fool all the time ago?
I was looking at Liu Yan intently, I was struck the shoulder, and I was startled, and when I turned my head, I saw Gu Xiaoxiao who was smiling, this guy actually followed.
"Wow, it's so exciting, I didn't expect Liu Yan to be so innocent on the outside, but so coquettish in her bones." Gu Xiaoxiao lowered her voice and commented.
I was noncommittal: "I always feel that this is not the real Liu Yan, she is like this, there must be a reason." ”
As soon as my words fell, a pair of men and women who were still glued just now suddenly quarreled, and the man grabbed Liu Yan vigorously, and Liu Yan stalked and refused to let anyone go.
"Psycho, get out of here!" The man was forced to be anxious, and with a little effort, he almost threw Liu Yan down.
Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't bear it anymore when she saw it, and wanted to rush forward to help Liu Yan, but I grabbed her: "Don't be impulsive, let's take a look." ”
"What else are you looking at, if you look at Liu Yan again, you will be beaten." Gu Xiaoxiao said hurriedly.
I replied casually: "Just to watch her get beaten." ”
As soon as I said this, Gu Xiaoxiao's eyes immediately widened and looked at me incredulously: "Ah Li......"
Only then did I react and explain with a wry smile: "That, have you forgotten the two big men who came to Liu Yan to compensate for before?" Didn't they all say that they were beaten like that by Liu Yan? Therefore, we have to verify the authenticity, when the situation is really wrong, we can rush up and pull the frame again. ”
"Oh, yes, yes, yes, I almost made a mistake, let's watch the play, watch the play." Gu Xiaoxiao hugged my shoulder and stopped talking.
At this time, the man was already about to leave, Liu Yan chased after him and grabbed his shoulder tightly: "What's wrong with me?" Why are you leaving? ”
"I don't talk to neurotics!" The man was angry.
"My family runs its own company, and I am the only daughter in the family, you can marry or get rich, no dowry, the child has your surname, listen to you everything, you can marry me." Liu Yan has a small mouth, and her words are not shocking.
Gu Xiaoxiao and I opened our mouths unconsciously, why does this Liu Yan hate marriage so much?
"It must have been caused by her ex-boyfriend's overstimulation, it's crazy." Gu Xiaoxiao said.
No wonder the man scolded Liu Yan for being neurotic, people thought it was an affair, but the premise was that he was going to be dragged to get married, who would want to?
Love at first sight wasn't so fast.
"Let go, if you don't let go, I'll call the security guard." Men are still relatively literate and have not moved their fists.
On the contrary, Liu Yan was more emotional: "Why don't you want to marry me?" What's wrong with me? Bad figure? Bad family background? Not highly educated? Why do you dislike me? ”
Man: "??? ”
"Anyway, they're all going to get married, so why can't that person be me? You say! Say! "Liu Yan is aggressive.
A group of people gathered around the hulala, all of them were watching the excitement, at first everyone thought it was a little couple forced marriage drama, but they didn't expect someone to recognize Liu Yan later.
"Damn, isn't this the woman who coached in the gym two days ago" The man shouted, "Dude, run, this woman can pick the three of you, if you don't run, wait for the cripple!" ”
When he shouted this, everyone laughed, and no one believed his words, and there was a lot of discussion:
"Dude, are you saying the opposite? I can pick all three of these girls. A thin, bean sprout-like man scoffed.
"Yes, when I look at this delicate girl, I can't help but be weak, pick her, my finger is enough!"
But there are also those who disagree:
"People can't be good-looking, the sea can't be measured, maybe this girl is a practitioner."
"It's so beautiful, I can't bear to do it if you cripple me."
"Yes, the goddess will come and beat me, I will marry you."
The last man shouted such a sentence, but he didn't expect Liu Yan to turn his head suddenly, stepped forward a few steps, grabbed the man's collar and dragged him out, and asked urgently, "Do you really marry me?" ”
"I ...... I ......" The man was frightened, he was relatively short, Liu Yan mentioned this, and directly lifted him up, his feet hung in the air, and he kicked helplessly, and his words were incomplete.
Everyone gasped and took two steps back, and many people muttered, what a practitioner.
"We're going to get a marriage license now." Liu Yan was about to leave with the man in her hands.
The man was anxious and shouted: "I'm joking, I got married last year, and besides, the Civil Affairs Bureau won't open in the middle of the night." ”
Liu Yan's footsteps slammed, her eyes sprayed with anger, she pressed the man against the bar, and said viciously: "You won't marry me?" ”
"The strength doesn't allow it." The man said innocently.
Syllable!
Smack!
As soon as the man's voice fell, a loud slap sounded, one after another.
"If you don't marry me, what are you going to do?"
"Dare to lie to me, damn it!"
"Kill you! Scumbag! ”
Liu Yan moved her hand, it was called a ruthless, the man had no chance to resist at all, and the burly man who was entangled by her before quickly stepped back, for fear of being targeted again.
The people around were stunned, until the man was slapped five or six times, the security guard finally rushed up, and everyone scattered, and Gu Xiaoxiao's and I hearts were in our throats.
"What should I do, Ah Li, I'm in trouble." Gu Xiaoxiao exclaimed in a low voice.
What else can I do, something will definitely happen if I go on like this, even if Liu Yan becomes able to fight because of the blessing of a certain strength, her two fists are invincible to her four hands, and there are times when she is tired and can't move.
I raised my feet and wanted to rush up to help, at least I had to drag Liu Yan out, but before I could move, it suddenly went dark in the bar, and all the lights went out.
Gu Xiaoxiao held my hand tightly, the crowd around me was chaotic, the sound of discussion and cursing came and went, my ears were filled with all kinds of sounds, but my eyes were fixed on the side of the bar.
On the other side of the bar, there are many dark shadows, and it is impossible to tell who is who, but you can see ghosts in white clothes or red dresses or suits and leather shoes, they quietly follow their respective targets, waiting for an opportunity to act.
And where Liu Yan was standing before, I saw a touch of white gas, I couldn't see the form clearly, but it was shrouded in white, it seemed that this thing was manipulating Liu Yan.
"Xiaoxiao, you go to the door now, wait for me outside the door, don't come in again, I will take Liu Yan to meet you." I whispered to Gu Xiaoxiao.
Gu Xiaoxiao refused: "I'll stay and help you." ”
"No, it's too messy here, and it's not clean, we can't make any movement, so let's quietly withdraw while the electricity hasn't been repaired at this moment." I explained.
Gu Xiaoxiao let go of me at this time, and asked uneasily: "Then you come out quickly, I will wait for you at the door." ”
Waiting for Gu Xiaoxiao to leave, I squeezed towards the bar, found Liu Yan accurately, and then bit my finger and quickly drew a soul suppression talisman on her back.
As soon as the rune was drawn, a small pinch of flames suddenly appeared, which burned clean in an instant, scaring the people who saw the flames next to them half to death, shouting that it was on fire, run!
Liu Yan's body fell limply into my arms, I frowned, although the rune failed to suppress the thing, it was obvious that the deterrent was okay, and it died down.
I carried Liu Yan and followed the crowd to retreat, Gu Xiaoxiao blocked the door of the bar and waited, as soon as we came out, Yunlu also walked over, and the three of them carried Liu Yan and hailed a taxi and went directly to the ancient street.
This trouble, it was already about three o'clock in the morning, I went to cook noodles for everyone to eat, and Gu Xiaoxiao woke her up by picking Liu Yan's person.
When I was making noodles, Yunlu came over and told me that she didn't eat garlic, and asked me if I wanted to help, and I said you just go out and sit and wait for it to eat.
I really like Yunlu's character, tepid, but I know that I care about people, and it's completely different from her cousin, Yunshuang can't wait to make me cry all day long, so she can be happy.
When eating noodles, Liu Yan was already completely awake, sitting at the table, and she was not in a very good mood.
She didn't take a few bites, and suddenly asked, "Did I really hit someone?" Still forced to marry a stranger? ”
"Absolutely." Gu Xiaoxiao replied, and I nodded along with it.
Liu Yan didn't believe it: "Won't it? ”
"I'll tell you the truth, I was hurt very deeply by Zhao Haibo, we have been in love for three years, and I love him with almost everything I have, but he fell in love with other women in a blink of an eye, which made me inexplicably reject men, let alone get married, even if I want to accept a man's pursuit now, I don't want to, besides, my little arms and legs, really so good at fighting?"
She paused, and then said, "But you won't be idle to make up this kind of story to trick me, I just want to know, what's wrong with me?" ”
"We need to know what's wrong with you." Gu Xiaoxiao said.
I thought for a while and asked, "Liu Yan, I heard Xiaoxiao say, you went out on a trip some time ago?" ”
"Yes, it's too hard to fall out of love, and my whole mental state is not good, so my parents suggested that I go out for a walk, so I went." Liu Yan asked, "Is there any problem?" ”
I shook my head: "Travel itself is indeed a relaxing thing, but after you come back, it has become what it is now, I think, it is likely that you bumped into something during the trip, can you tell me more about the travel process?" ”
Liu Yan nodded and recalled: "I went out for a total of five days, starting from Jiangcheng and going all the way to Qingdao, because I always told Zhao Haibo that I wanted to see the sea, and he always promised to go, but in three years, he still hasn't taken me once." ”
"The scumbag is a scumbag, running the train with his mouth full, and he has always been the kind who only writes empty checks and does not take action." Gu Xiaoxiao held her mouth and complained.
Liu Yan reluctantly laughed: "Yes, now that I think about how stupid I was at the beginning, but now that it has been divided, there is nothing to say." ”
"Because of the mood, even when I got to the longing beach, I was still depressed, and I didn't think it was beautiful, but on the way back, I encountered an incident that slowly opened my heart knot."
"What's the matter?" I hurriedly asked.
"I was traveling by car, stopping and stopping along the way, and that day the car broke down in a small county called Licheng, and when the car was repaired, I walked around and was deeply attracted by a shop."
"The store is open at the end of the street, the overall decoration style is very retro, there is a chestnut yellow plaque hanging on the door, on which are written 'lovelorn shelter' a few big words, the moment I saw these words, I instantly felt the strings in my heart be plucked, raised my feet and walked in."
"As soon as I entered the door, there was a front desk lady reception, especially politely chatted with me, and then briefly introduced to me the situation in the store, she said that this store is a theme self-operated store, only two kinds of people are allowed to enter, the first kind of people are like me, just out of love has not come out; The second, on the contrary, is a couple who are in love and must be present at the same time to enter. ”
"And all the objects, photos, stories, and even the short films on display in the store were all taken or remade from the people who had fallen out of love, some of whom had passed away, and some of whom had just come, and the more she said it, the more I was attracted to it, and I willingly paid five hundred dollars for the entrance fee, and then I was put in."
"Five hundred tickets, much more expensive than tickets for 5A-level attractions, aren't you deceived?" Gu Xiaoxiao snorted.
Liu Yan shook her head: "No, because after going in, I think the five hundred yuan is worth it." ”
"There are not many people who come to visit the store, and the people who go in with me are a couple with a good relationship, they look in front, and I almost follow behind their feet, and we sigh a lot."
"There are all kinds of things on display inside, and behind each thing, there are tear-jerking stories, thousands of train tickets stacked together, fruit knives used to cut pulses, medical certificates that have been permanently disqualified as mothers because of abortion, etc., etc., the little couple in front of me is embarrassed, but I don't know how many times I have cried."
"But what touched me the most was a black wedding dress that I turned to the second floor and was isolated head-on."
"Black...... Wedding dress? I wondered, "I remember that the meaning of the black wedding dress was roughly similar - wearing this wedding dress, there was no divorce, only widowhood - right?" ”
"Yes." Liu Yan nodded and said, "The black wedding dress represents loyal and unswerving love, and that wedding dress was given to her by a girl's boyfriend, it is said that the two of them are childhood sweethearts, talented and beautiful, and have always been very sweet, but the boy finally left the girl, without warning, as if the world had evaporated, the girl desperately searched for the boy all over the world, and in the end, she found that the boy got married and married a second-married woman who was much older than him, and her world collapsed at that moment. ”
When Liu Yan said this, tears had fallen involuntarily, and she asked us instead: "Is it very similar to me and Zhao Haibo?" ”
"They seem to be a little bit more miserable." I said cautiously.
"yes, they're a little bit more miserable." Liu Yan repeated my words and continued, "The girl ran to question the boy, but the boy told her that he was already tired of her, he said that the girl was too strong, he was tired of it, and it was better for his current wife to know that it hurts, the girl cried and left, depressed for a long time, burned everything about the boy, except for this wedding dress, and soon after, the girl became seriously ill and died soon after, and her last words were to donate the wedding dress to the lovelorn shelter and allow the lovelorn girl to try it on. ”
After listening to this story, we all felt a lot of emotion, and we didn't know whether to scold the boy's ruthlessness, or the poor girl's obsession with love.
"You're not going to try on that wedding dress, are you?" I asked.
As soon as I asked, everyone looked at Liu Yan with blank eyes, Liu Yan was stunned for a moment, and nodded: "I tried." ”
"At that time, in fact, the girl in the small couple in front of me also wanted to try, after all, most people's vision is more traditional, get married, either wear a white or brightly colored wedding dress, or wear a red costume wedding dress, few people can accept a black wedding dress, even if we like it, we will accommodate the eyes of relatives and friends, it may not have the opportunity to wear a black wedding dress in a lifetime, but the girl's boyfriend does not let it, he said, even if he wants to wear it, he has to give her a private custom, because she is unique and deserves the best."
"In the environment of the lovelorn shelter, I was already infected by those deeds, and I was more emotional, and then I saw the deep friendship between the young couple, compared to my own messy emotional world, really, when I looked at the black wedding dress, I was thinking, I may not have unswerving love for the rest of my life, right?"
"The magic of that wedding dress on me was constantly magnified, and finally I couldn't resist the eager desire in my heart and asked to try on the black wedding dress."
"The upper body effect is very good, it feels like it is tailor-made for me, I walked back and forth in front of the mirror several times, the more I looked, the more uncomfortable I felt, and I involuntarily remembered what I had with Zhao Haibo, and finally cried silently, and cried for a long time in the lovelorn shelter before leaving."
"The moment I left, I felt that I could really let go of my relationship with Zhao Haibo, but I didn't expect it to become like this after I came back, am I really going to be ruined by this relationship?"
Liu Yan stretched out her hand and pressed her forehead, it was very painful, I sat down and hugged her shoulders and comforted: "Don't be so under such psychological pressure, aren't we helping you?" I think most of your affairs have something to do with that black wedding dress, let's accompany you to that lovelorn shelter at dawn tomorrow to investigate the situation, and everything will be fine. ”
Gu Xiaoxiao snorted and said, "Yes, it's too late tonight, let's sleep for a few hours and set off early tomorrow morning." ”
"Thank you." Liu Yan wiped a handful of tears and said sincerely.
Four people, one bed is not enough to sleep, Yunlu said that she went back to her own place to rest, Gu Xiaoxiao and Liu Yan slept on my bed, I slept on the sofa, and I just stayed alive for a while.
But no one expected that this sleep would come to the third day of the day, I suddenly woke up from the sofa, and when I went to call the two of them, I only saw Gu Xiaoxiao sleeping soundly in the bed, and Liu Yan was gone.
I searched everywhere, but there was no figure of her at all, and I woke up Gu Xiaoxiao, and she didn't hear any movement of Liu Yan leaving.
"Why is she like this? We were kind enough to help her, but she secretly ran away by herself, is this afraid that we will harm her? Gu Xiaoxiao said angrily.
I frowned: "I'm worried about her mental state, I'm afraid something will happen to her." ”
"Maybe you'll go back to your dorm or go home?"
The two of us called Liu Yan and her roommate separately, but Liu Yan's phone was turned off, and the roommate said that she had not returned to school.
"Xiaoxiao, do you have Zhao Haibo's phone number?" I asked, thinking about it.
Gu Xiaoxiao said no, but she could ask others, and after a while, the phone number was in hand, and she immediately dialed it.
It was not Zhao Haibo who answered the phone, but a woman, her voice was a little hoarse, as if she had just cried, I asked the other party if Zhao Haibo was there?
"Who are you? What are you looking for Haibo? The other party said alertly.
I felt something was wrong, and said tentatively: "I'm Zhao Haibo's classmate, I ......"
"Can we let it go?" The woman yelled, "I know I'm stealing love, but we really love each other, isn't it enough for you to put him in the intensive care unit?" He has to die in front of you to be at ease, isn't it? ”
