Chapter 29: When the vase is tired
When she walked to the bathroom door, her steps paused slightly.
Instead of pushing open the bathroom door, she continued to take a few steps forward.
The men's and women's restrooms on the second floor of this bar each have a small balcony for customers to breathe or smoke.
Zhuang Yiman pushed open the door to the balcony and saw a person standing in front of the balcony railing, the other party had short hair, and was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, black casual leggings, and a pair of black casual running shoes.
Because of her back to her, the other party's dress made her unable to distinguish whether it was a man or a woman, and when she wanted to turn away, the other party seemed to feel Zhuang Yiman's scrutiny, and slowly turned around.
When a familiar face met Zhuang Yiman's eyes without warning, she was stunned for a moment, and then said uncertainly: "Xu Nuanxin? ”
Xu Nuanxin raised the corners of her lips slightly, and a casual smile appeared on her soft facial features, "Long time no see." ”
As the words fell, she took a puff of her cigarette and exhaled pure white smoke leisurely.
Zhuang Yiman dispelled the idea of leaving, and walked to Xu Nuanxin's side.
Xu Nuanxin took out a box of cigarettes from his trouser pocket and handed it to Zhuang Yiman: "Do you want one?" ”
Zhuang Yiman stared at the cigarette she handed over, and couldn't help but reach out and take out one, Xu Nuanxin took out a lighter from his pocket and lit the cigarette for her skillfully.
The relationship between Zhuang Yiman and Xu Nuanxin is also quite strange, the two lived in the dormitory next door when they were in college, but they didn't have any intersection, and they didn't even say hello when they met.
It was probably in his junior year that Zhuang Yiman's pressure began to increase, so he tried to smoke to relieve stress.
Usually she goes to the top floor of the dormitory to smoke a cigarette, but coincidentally, every time she goes up to the top floor to smoke, she will meet Xu Nuanxin, who happens to be also smoking.
In this way, the two became good smokers and drinking friends in the last two years of college.
It's just that after graduating from college, the two never contacted each other again.
Zhuang Yiman had already quit smoking, but when Xu Nuanxin handed her a cigarette just now, the action of receiving the cigarette was habitual, and he didn't think about it at all.
Zhuang Yiman took a puff of cigarette, slowly exhaled the smoke, and asked slowly: "How have you been in the past few years?" ”
"That's it, what about you?"
"That's it, I'm ready to look for a job."
The unexpected answer made Xu Nuanxin happy, and she joked: "What, is your wealthy wife ready to find a job because you want to experience life?" ”
Zhuang Yiman glanced at Xu Nuanxin, shook his head, and teased in a slightly lonely tone: "When the vase is tired, I want to insert some flowers in the vase to fill my life." ”
Xu Nuanxin smiled, and then asked, "Then what industry do you plan to engage in?" ”
"Not sure for now. What about you, what industry are you working in now? ”
Xu Nuanxin took the last puff of cigarette and exhaled the lonely smoke before replying expressionlessly: "A photography dog." ”
As the words fell, she snuffed out the cigarette in the ashtray and left the cigarette butt in the ashtray.
Just like when he was in college, Xu Nuanxin would habitually raise his chin slightly to Zhuang Yiman after smoking, and said in a cool tone: "I'll go in first." ”
"Yes."
Xu Nuanxin raised her legs to leave, and when she walked to the door, she suddenly stopped and turned around.
Under the quiet moonlight, Zhuang leaned lazily on the guardrail in a manly posture, exuding a proud and noble temperament.
She took a puff of her cigarette gracefully and puffed out the smoke comfortably.
