I didn't have a good place to go around here, so I wandered around with Luo Qiong and the two of us to the small bar next to it. There are many small bars around the Bund, and the main customers are foreigners, and several of them even have owners who are foreigners. I don't go to this kind of place very often, and I rarely go to discotheques in the 90s, and I spend all day either wandering around the old woods or talking to other people about business.

I found a small bar near the café and pushed the door in, and at noon there was almost no one, a bartender sat behind the bar in a daze, and two other waiters were wiping the table.

"What do you two drink? We just opened the door, so if you don't mind, sit at the bar, and the booths inside are still being cleaned. "The bartender was a very good-looking boy, with an earring on his right ear, dyed red hair, and a white shirt and black vest. Luo Qiong and I don't care much about how we dress, sometimes we are too tired outside, and it is common for us to not shave our hair or wash our beard. When I went back to the city, although it was a little cleaner, I never thought about improving my appearance. Therefore, no matter how you look at it, it is the appearance of Tubula.

"Beer bar." I said casually, the bartender nodded, took two small bottles, and Luo Qiong next to him scratched his head and said, "Brother Shan, shouldn't you drink foreign wine when you go to this kind of bar?" I want foreign wine, what is it called whiskey! I'll just drink that! ”

I wanted to laugh next to me, waiting to see Luo Qiong come out of the embarrassment. At that time in the 90s, there were many people who admired foreign countries, especially the first batch of people who went abroad after the reform and opening up, and they brought some foreign situations one after another. So much so that this trend has also spread rapidly in China, especially in Shanghai, where small traders and hawkers open and close their mouths "OKOK......", and scalpers wear pointed shoes and straight suits. Especially after the increase in some small bars and foreigners, many people also learned from Westerners to drink foreign wine.

The whiskey was poured to the bottom, the price was not cheap, Luo Qiong couldn't wait to take a sip and suddenly frowned, coughed again and again, wiped his mouth and said, "This wine...... Why is it so spicy......"

I smiled and continued to drink my beer, Luo Qiong tried to taste it again, and finally couldn't stand it anymore and shook his head and said, "I'll still drink beer, you can bring me a bottle of beer!" ”

The bartender smiled at Luo Qiong and reluctantly opened a bottle of beer. It's boring for the two of us to sit next to the bar, and I hold my chin with my hands, and I don't know what happened to the fat man. I really should have put a bug in his pocket to hear what he was doing and pass the time.

"Brother Shan, what happened to the relatives of the Song family later?" Luo Qiong didn't go again after Boss Song's affair was over, I took a sip of wine and said, "I heard that I'm still resting, anyway, I'll definitely go back to my hometown after resting." By the way, you haven't been back to Great Black Mountain for several years, don't you miss home? ”

Luo Qiong shook his head and said: "A few years ago, when I first came to Shanghai for a year, I was very homesick for a while, but I wasn't too busy with work, so I didn't think much about it when I was busy." I don't want to do it anymore, why go back? I don't have any relatives at home, and if I go back with money, I can raise my eyebrows in the village, but why bother? It's better to be honest in Shanghai. ”

I smiled, there will always be a second home for wanderers who are away all the year round, some because they can't go home, and some are homeless.

I took out the cigarette case and wanted to smoke a cigarette, but the lighter was pressed for a long time and didn't work, so I had no choice but to borrow a lighter from the bartender, but the bartender shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't smoke, or I'll go to the cabinet to help you find it." ”

At this moment, a voice came from the side, a very soft voice, and whispered: "Use mine." ”

I nodded subconsciously and said as I turned my head, "Thank you then." ”

But when I looked back, I saw a familiar face, and the surprise in my heart even spread to my face, so that the hand holding the cigarette froze in mid-air, and Luo Qiong behind me said in surprise at this moment: "Yudie!" ”

She had been removed from my life like rotting flesh attached to my heart, and I cried and cried to cut it apart. In order to give myself a new lease on life and stop being a fool that even I look down on.

"Xiao Luo......" I didn't look back and wanted to speak, but Luo Qiong patted me on the shoulder and said, "Brother Shan, I'll go out for a walk, and you guys will talk slowly." ”

He looked at Yu Die, if it was when I first fell in love with Yu Die, he would still call his sister-in-law with a smile, but now, he just looked at Yu Die's face with indifferent eyes.

Pushed open the door of the bar and walked outside. I withdrew my gaze, adjusted my breathing slightly, took a sip of wine, and said, "What a coincidence." ”

Yudie has always liked to hang out in this kind of place in the past, from the disco to the bar and café later, she is not from Shanghai, but she likes the feeling of Shanghai under the neon lights. I remember saying in the past that she was born in a village where the sun went down and she would stand at the window and look out every night. Why is the night in the mountain village always silent and terrible, why does everyone go back in the evening, why no one accompanies her to party all night? Looking at the village that was already shrouded in darkness, she felt a loneliness coming from the depths of her heart. It was not until she came to Shanghai, when she stood in the downtown area that was still brightly lit late at night, that she finally knew that this was her destination.

"Well, I've been wandering around here lately. I come to this shop a lot, and sometimes I sit from noon to night. "She has a glass of red wine in her hand, and to be honest, if I see her as soon as I enter the door, then I promise I won't sit down with Luo Qiong.

"Oh, is your mom okay?" I asked.

"Fortunately, I will have regular check-ups, and the doctor said that there is no big deal." She shook her head.

"Oh......" I used to be so eager to talk to her, to be favored by her, like a humble beggar. I smiled, but I didn't know what to say to her at the moment, and I even wanted to leave right away, so I walked out without looking back.

"You've been busy lately...... she said, after a few moments of silence.

"It's very busy, you know my work, running all over the world, there is no time to rest." The wine bottle was empty, and I really couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere between each other, so I finally stood up and said, "I still have something to do, or ......"

Before he finished his farewell, he heard a man's voice behind him, and said loudly: "Yudie, I'm here to pick you up." ”

When I turned around, I saw a tall and thin handsome man standing at the door of the small bar, wearing a suit that looked very good at first sight, and he had a good temperament, looking like a young master from a rich family. In contrast, I, who had been wearing a shabby jacket and jeans for several years, looked so bad.

"Okay." Yudie smiled at him, drank the wine in his glass, and then stood up and walked over to the man. The man looked at me and asked curiously, "Who is this?" Are you a friend? ”

Yudie smiled and said, "It's my friend, called Ba Xiaoshan." Xiaoshan, this is my boyfriend, Peng Yu. ”

"First meeting." He held out his hand to me, looking polite. I looked at his outstretched hand, was slightly stunned, and slowly raised my hand to shake it.

"Here's my phone number, I'll contact you when you're not busy." She gave me a business card and walked out slowly with the man's arm hooked, and I watched them leave and get into the limousine parked outside the door.

The moment I walked out of the bar, I suddenly understood something. Yudie has never changed, choosing someone who is better and loves her more. Looking at the business card in my hand, which said the deputy general manager of a certain company, I suddenly laughed, turned around and grabbed the glass of whiskey that Luo Qiong didn't drink, and drank it all.

"Let's settle the bill." I shouted and slipped my business card into my pocket as I pulled out the money.

Walking out of the bar and seeing Luo Qiong, he asked, "Brother Shan, what's wrong?" I see that girl has a new boyfriend. ”

"It's okay with me anymore, she's her, I'm me. Let's go, let's see if the fat man's side succeeds. "I pretended to be free, but I was reluctant to lose the business card in my pocket......
