12. Tabletop and off-the-table

Love has nothing to do with trust and distrust, two people who trust each other trust each other for a lifetime, and two people who are suspicious of each other will not be suspicious for long.

Christmas Eve is over and it's Christmas.

When Li Youbin and Lu Chaoling returned to the dormitory, it was almost noon.

He spent this day alone, because Lu Chaoling drank too much and had a headache, and he couldn't ease up for a while.

When you're alone, your attention isn't on a particular person, you look around.

While eating, he noticed a very interesting thing.

He had eaten at the nearest restaurant to the school, and there was a private room not far from him, and he could see through the gap in the partition.

There were not many people in the box, one man and two women, probably because they were still waiting for someone, and several people didn't move their chopsticks.

Sitting next to the boy was a girl with long hair, she was very intimate with the man, and she should be his girlfriend.

The other one, sitting opposite the boy, chats with the girl more often, and talks less with the boy, so it should be the girl's best friend or something.

The people at this table seem to be nothing on the surface, but in fact, the situation hidden under the table is actually the opposite of the table.

Coincidentally, Li Youbin was sitting in a position where he could see their table low through the gap.

Li Youbin was interested in the scene that happened under the table.

Different from the relationship at the table, the girl sitting opposite the boy seems to have a very close relationship with him, and the two have been touching each other's bodies with their feet, thighs and calves, kicking and beating, and if you just look at the bottom of the table, you feel that they are having a good time.

And the girl who sat next to the boy and behaved very close to the boy at the table was left aside.

This creates a wonderful picture, like the relationship between the surface and the relationship behind the scenes, which is often heard.

Li Youbin dared to conclude that the girl next to the boy was kept in the dark, the feelings in the world are so delicate, the girl gave the boy and the girl sitting opposite enough trust, trusted enough to pull the two out to eat together, and often what the other party gave back to her was not the return of her trust.

Seeing this subtle scene, Li Youbin remembered the story he had told him by the owner of the "wine shop" last night.

He used to be a very handsome young man, and he was a basketball player on the varsity team when he was in high school.

He and his daughter-in-law met when they were in high school, and I heard him say that he was very popular with girls at that time, tall, handsome, and could play ball.

His daughter-in-law was one of his many suitors.

At that time, I didn't know why I fell in love with her, love is a very magical thing, sometimes it comes very suddenly, and it is unexpected.

She didn't study very well, and he didn't care, he felt that it was enough for him to be with her, and with his ability, he could support her for a lifetime.

When she graduated from high school, she was not admitted to university, but he was admitted to Jiaotong University.

Afraid that she would have nothing to do when she came out, he took out a loan to open a snack bar in Taolin.

At first, there were quite a lot of people coming to the snack bar, and the two gave it a name called "Jiujiu Hotel", which means that the relationship between the two can last forever.

After graduating, he went to work, and she maintained the business of the restaurant alone.

The first few years of entering the post are very difficult, there are many things, and I am very busy, and I can't see her a few times a day. But she never complained, and the two got married not long after graduation.

It sounded like a very warm and happy love, and he thought so at the time.

Later, he had a small achievement, his career became more and more smooth, he worked hard every day, worked hard to make money, and he wanted to give her a stable home.

He worked so hard that he forgot he had a home.

A year after their marriage, she had his children. But at that time, his career was just a little bright, and he didn't want to give up the results of his hard work for a year because of his family.

He asked her to get rid of the baby, and she agreed, saying he would do anything for him.

Later, he was so busy that he lost track of time and did not return home for several days.

She panicked, thinking he had someone outside.

When he got home, she asked him if he was out there, and he lost his temper at her and went to sleep.

She was very sad, she felt that he had changed, he didn't love her as much as before, she was very scared, afraid that she would do something bad and make him dislike.

After this incident, he did not make any changes, and even intensified his overtime work day and night than before, and he had deviated from the ultimate goal of his efforts. At that time, he was purely making money for the sake of making money.

It wasn't until one day, when he came home from a business trip, no matter how he called him, no one answered him, and he began to panic.

She left, and the note she had left on the table.

She said that during the days when he was on a business trip, she met a man who was very nice to her, and she was fed up with the days when she didn't see him twice a month.

At the end of the note, she wished him happiness with his current lover.

It turned out that until that moment, she thought he was cheating.

She left, taking nothing with her, but leaving a room full of memories.

He cried that day, he never thought that one day she would leave her.

He remembered the bits and pieces together, and remembered the shop.

He quit his job after she left.

He changed the former "Kujiu Hotel" to "Wine Shop", and from that day on, he fell in love with drinking, because only alcohol could anesthetize him and give his brain a break.

For the first few months he lived in self-blame every day, and he even hoped that she would come back one day.

It wasn't so uncomfortable later.

It's been three years since these things, and now he misses her a lot, and he slowly gets used to living alone, and only occasionally thinks of her when he's free.

In the past few years, his store has never been renovated except for a change of sign, and he still retains the original appearance of when she was there.

Time has passed, and there are very few people in this store anymore, and occasionally one or two old customers come to drink two cups, but also because life can't go on, he borrows wine to drown his sorrows.

His store wasn't profitable, but he just didn't want to sell it, because he was afraid that one day she would come back and couldn't find a place.

This is the end of the story.

Li Youbin also finished eating the fish-flavored shredded pork.

He turned his head to look at the box again, and the girl was the only one left in the box.

Neither the boy nor the girl sitting across from her were there.

After eating, Li Youbin went to the toilet.

As soon as I entered the toilet, I met the boy in the box just now and the girl sitting opposite him kissed affectionately, and when I saw someone coming in, I hurriedly let go.

The girl hurriedly arranged her hair and clothes, while the boy leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette.

Li Youbin nodded at him.

Although he didn't know why, he responded out of politeness.

As soon as I came out of the hotel, my phone rang.

Li Youbin picked up the phone, and Lu Chaoling's lazy voice came from the other end of the phone: "Where are you?" I'm hungry, order a takeout for me. ”

"Okay."

Sometimes the people around you are like this, and the one who is most likely to hurt you is precisely the person you trust the most.
