Chapter 61: Peace of mind
An Ran's appearance near the city center was beyond Lin Ming's expectations.
The City Cultural Square is very close to the Changhe Gate, about one or two kilometers. Lin Ming and Liu He didn't take a taxi home because it would only take an hour and a half to get back to the yard if they walked. The two of them are teenagers, and the distance is fast, and they may be able to get home in an hour.
So he simply walked back, but when he walked to the Qingba street outside Changhe Gate, he saw An Ran walking towards him from a distance.
An Ran didn't come to find Lin Ming on purpose, and it wasn't Liu He who made a small report to "catch the traitor". Because she was standing in front of a bar, looking inside the store. The Qingba street outside the gate of Changhe has a nice name, Yunxin Pond. Yuncheng people love to drink, just as Cantonese people love food. There are countless people who haunt the bar street on Xizhong Road every night, and at night, every bar on Xizhong Road is crowded with people, and the seats are full. But there are also people who don't like hi, and if you want to be quiet, you will come to Yunxinchi to sit down, listen to folk songs quietly, drink two glasses of beer, and have a few good friends to chat about your heart, which is also a good choice.
Enron didn't come alone, there were a few classmates and friends, including Xu Zihan, a rich kid who talked to Lin Ming about "Jane Eyre" in a café. A few of them stopped in front of the bar, as if they were talking about something, but the bar hadn't opened in broad daylight, and no one had entered.
Lin Ming was actually a little strange why they came to Yunxinchi during the day, it was not uncommon for high school students in Yuncheng to go to the bar, and it was not uncommon for junior high school students to go to Xizhong Road, but the bar was not open during the day, what did they come to do.
But they really didn't go in, they just stopped at the door of the bar for a while before continuing to walk forward, and they were greeted by Lin Ming and Liu He.
"Enron."
Liu He shouted, attracting the attention of the other side.
An Ran turned her head, a pair of clear eyes flickered, it was Liu He who called her, but she saw Lin Ming for the first time.
She was a little cramped, not because of some kind of "adultery" that was broken through her inner emotions. Instead, she was afraid that Lin Ming would misunderstand, and suddenly remembered that when she was drinking coffee that day, Lin Ming was also very calm, and when she saw him looking at her with a smile, she couldn't help but feel a little moved in her heart.
He wouldn't want to be crooked.
Enron thought to himself.
But she walked over anyway and explained in a whisper, "A classmate's birthday." ”
Lin Ming smiled and said, "It's okay." ”
Liu He and An Ran are not in the same class, so he doesn't know any of these people. Liu He asked, "What are you doing in Yunxin Pool?" ”
"There is a classmate who has opened a bar here at home, and on the birthday of the classmate, he said that he would come and sit together in the evening." An Ran's face was slightly red and said, "It is said that they invited the old wolf to come over and sing, I want to hear it." ”
"Old wolf?"
As soon as Liu He heard this, he became interested. Although the popularity of "You at the Same Table" has passed for eight years, the old wolf is still famous, but there has been no famous new work, so it can be regarded as an outdated star. But with "You at the Same Table", I often walk around some bars to make some gold or something, and people who love folk songs like it very much.
Liu He was very interested in folk songs, and hurriedly said: "What time does the old wolf come, I also want to go and see." ”
"Ten o'clock."
At this time, Xu Zihan walked over, he glanced at Lin Ming, and asked politely: "Hello Lin Ming, today is my cousin's birthday, can you come and sit together?" ”
Xu Zihan's cousin is in the same class as him and is also in the same class as An Ran. The relationship between the two girls is okay, and Xu Zihan naturally will not let go of this opportunity to get close to Enron. But on the way, he suddenly bumped into Lin Ming, if he was an ordinary person, he would definitely look at it coldly, and he would never let Lin Ming participate in this birthday party for his cousin.
But Xu Zihan is active and more open-minded. In his previous life, he had competed with Zhao Hao normally for Enron, and he would never play any conspiracy tricks, so he calmly invited Lin Ming to participate together. This will not only show that he is open-minded, but also indirectly prove that Lin Ming is narrow-minded.
At least Xu Zihan can invite his rival to join him, but he is not at ease with An Ran, and he must come along. Then with a high mind and a judgment, An Ran may have a scale in her heart and understand who she is looking for.
Lin Ming shook his head and said, "Go ahead." Your cousin's birthday, I won't join in the fun, everyone has a little fun. ”
Seeing that Lin Ming was not in the trap, Xu Zihan was not disappointed, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go first." ”
When he left, An Ran said, "If you don't want me to go....."
Lin Ming smiled and said, "It's okay, it's just my classmate's birthday." ”
He put his arm on An Ran's shoulder, turned her around, pushed her gently, and whispered in her ear: "Silly girl, you are the most trusted person in this world, if you want to do your own thing, just do it, don't care about me." Remember what I told you? I want you to be free, and I want you to be yourself. ”
Hearing this, An Ran's heart was full of emotion. She turned around and said, "Well, let's go have a meal, and then we'll come to Yunxinchi later, if you also come, come to this bar to find me, then I'll go first." ”
"Go ahead."
When An Ran left with the large army of her classmates, Lin Ming did not have any unusual emotions in his heart.
What kind of person Enron is, he knows better than anyone.
If you only see the surface of a person, you can't see her heart. You never know what kind of person she is, but that year, when that girl bravely pushed him away and blocked him, a sharp knife was inserted into her chest, Lin Ming already understood.
This is a girl who is willing to give her life for you, and when she can do it for you, you will no longer be able to reason about the relationship between the two parties through normal male and female logic.
Because she can die for you, it means that she won't go to a second man who is willing to let her die.
At least Zhao Hao is not, and neither is Xu Zihan.
In Enron's heart.
It's just me.
Out of the cloud heart pool, not far from the city is the city of No. 1 Middle School.
Liu He said, "Why don't we find a place to eat." The old wolf is coming, I want to go and see, are you going? ”
"Okay, I'll sit with you."
Lin Ming said: "You at the same table are also the songs I have always liked." ”
He remembered that when he was in Changyi, he had shared a table with An Ran, and he had also sat with Ye Shishi. At that time, Ye Shishi had an affair with himself, and in a trance, he remembered An Ran's years, when he saw that he was with Ye Shishi, his face was always a little pale.
Maybe that's love. likes a person, just looks at it all the time, even if it confesses, it only dares to read between the lines as if it was a joke, but at that time, how could I understand An Ran's mood?
As an insider, he is the most confused one. Thinking of this, he felt that he owed Enron too much, and in this life, it might not be over.
The two of them had a meal at a restaurant near No. 1 Middle School, and it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon.
Generally, the bar does not open until 7-8 p.m.
The two of them discussed it and decided to go to a nearby game hall to pass the time. Outside the No. 1 Middle School in the city, there are many game halls and Internet cafes, and there is a very special game console that is loved by the public.
It's the kind of room where there are dozens of TVs and then an X-box plugged in, and you can play a lot of games.
Like Digimon, Pokemon, you can play.
It's a bit similar to the Xiaobawang in the early years, but it's much more high-end than the Xiaobawang. Not to mention the exquisite graphics, the gameplay is also varied. Monster Hunter, like Lin Ming's favorite in later generations, was sold on such a platform.
They played in this kind of game hall until more than 6 o'clock, and only after sunset and night fell did they reluctantly come out of the game hall.
Shiyi Middle School stands on the oldest street in the center of Yuncheng City, and its geographical location is probably like this, Yunkai Street and Pangying Road are two unrelated parallel vertical streets. Walking up the two streets, it gradually becomes an old street and old houses. Grey Bu Street is between two main roads, like two parallel lines, and then a line is drawn horizontally. Here are all the old houses near the city government in the 80s, crawling full of creepers, on the left is the campus of the city No. 1 Middle School, on the right side of the street is full of towering camphor and plane trees, the evening sunset, the distant sky is burning with a hot fire cloud, the shadow of the tree is mottled at dusk. There are quite a few elderly people, after retiring from the government department, on the stone table and stone bench on the side of the street in the city, more than a dozen old people gather around after dinner, slipping around the birdcage, knocking melon seeds, watching the chess, enjoying a gentle and fun life. On both sides of the street, there are vendors selling spring rolls and kimchi, and there are people pushing carts of fried dough sticks and steamed buns on their way home.
Their departure also means the end of three meals a day. And the night snack stalls are set up on the streets of various intersections in the vicinity.
This era is still a slow era, although the southeast region is already in a stage of high development across the Hunan Province, people's lives are accelerating, full of fast-paced lifestyles, and the economy is taking off day by day. But this small city in the south has not been affected much.
It's like two train tracks, one is a high-speed high-speed train, and the other is a slow-moving old-fashioned green train.
Lin Ming walked through this ancient street, thinking of the thief of time, time flies, and the years change. It's an old age, like a century in the last century. It's a time that has passed slowly, but it's a time that people will miss in the future.
But here's what's interesting.
One street away from the city center, but it is like two worlds.
Xizhong Road, Yunxinchi, and the city No. 1 Middle School are very close. Because after passing through Yunkai Street in the first middle school of the city, when you reach the end of the street, you will come to the Yunxin Pond outside the Changhe Gate. It's less than a kilometre on foot.
And Xizhong Road is not far, through the Changhe Gate of Yunxinchi Qingba Street, along Yunzhong Avenue or Jiuyi Avenue, you can get to Xizhong Road.
The lights were brightly lit over there, and it was fun almost all night.
Countless young people gather on the pedestrian street in this neighborhood, either shopping, or drinking freely, and living a bright life.
The old street near the No. 1 Middle School in the city has been quiet, like an old man in the twilight, at seven or eight o'clock, he fell asleep and rested, and fell into silence peacefully.
Soon.
Lin Ming and Liu He arrived at the door of the bar.
Although the people who came to Yunxinchi did not go to half of Xizhong Road, there were still many people shuttling inside. Lin Ming saw the name of this bar, it was called, peace of mind.
The place of peace is you.
