I leaned against the wall, took out my cigarette and lit it, and halfway through my smoke, I heard footsteps outside, and then the heavy door was pushed open.

She walked in through the shadows, then turned sideways and gently closed the door before turning her head and smiling sheepishly at me.

I straightened up and bowed my chin downstairs, and she paused for a second before taking a step.

I followed her, and I went all the way to the bubble tea shop without saying a word, and the women looked at us smiling sweeter than yesterday.

I ordered two cups of milk tea and egg tarts as usual, during which I asked her if she had been taught a lesson by that teacher Su when she went back yesterday, after all, she had been out for a while.

She shook her head lightly and said no, and then I wanted to find something to talk to, but I couldn't seem to find it.

In this kind of silence, I don't want to stay longer, especially thinking about her sneaking out now, I quickly finished drinking milk tea and eating egg tarts, and she said very consciously that she had to go back.

I went to check out, and when I walked out the door, I couldn't help but light another cigarette.

In fact, I wondered in my heart, this boring situation was also expected, I had to climb into bed early in the morning to find her for Mao?

Later, on the way back, I thought about it for a long time and found that the reason seemed to be complicated.

Maybe I feel like I owe her something, or maybe I want to get some kind of benefit from her, or maybe it's some kind of vanity, I don't know, it seems like there's a little bit of everything......

Because she usually has someone to pick her up when she studies, before I left, I only said that I would come back next week to ask her for milk tea.

For a whole week, none of my fox friends showed up, and the days of being alone were a little lonely, and the thought of going to her the next day, and the relative wordlessness of the situation, I decided to go to Zhang Bin, planning to take him with me tomorrow morning.

I've always felt that although Zhang Bin is also a bit of a villain, at least it's okay for me, this time he didn't come to me for so long, and I guess I was angry that day.

Many times people are like this, they know it in their hearts, but they like to make excuses.

After dinner, I took a taxi to Zhang Bin's house, and his mother said that he went out for his birthday and didn't come back at noon.

I was stunned for a moment, and then I remembered that today is Li Nan's birthday......

The coolness came back to my heart, and I walked home, my mind kept flashing all the things I had done with before, and I felt uncomfortable with my heart attack, and I felt like a big fool!

I didn't sleep all night, but I didn't think about brothers, friends, what is really good, but about me over the years, in addition to being a loser, making friends carelessly, making my grandparents worried, I don't seem to have done anything!

Early the next morning, I didn't take a taxi, but took the bus, and after arriving at Huaxin Jinwan Commercial Building, I was not in a hurry to take the elevator to the fifth floor, but slowly walked up from the first floor.

I didn't refuse to be excluded, I didn't think about whether I was out of place here, I just watched it seriously and felt the luxury.

After more than 20 minutes, I settled on the red carpet on the fifth floor, and then habitually walked in the direction of the gym towards the piano.

She was still sitting on the piano money by the floor-to-ceiling window, and unlike last week, she was wearing a dark pink doll-collar shirt with three-quarter sleeves and light-colored jeans.

As soon as I got closer, she saw me, and instead of smiling shallowly like last time, she felt a little nervous and kept shaking her head at me.

I frowned, confused, when I heard footsteps behind me, and she jerked to her feet.

I looked back sharply and saw a woman with long hair and two men walking towards me quickly, one of them looking so much like a trainer in the fitness center.

I was still confused, and the woman with the hair raised her hand and pointed at me, "That's him!" ”

Not only can I clearly feel that I am not good, but I can also feel that these three people are inseparable from Li Jiayi.

At this time, I should have turned around and ran, no matter how I could run away, but magically, I couldn't move my footsteps, the right hand in my pants bag, pinched the remaining thousand dollars that I had brought before, and then let go.

Soon, the woman came to me and raised her chin slightly to look at me, "Qiu Wen? ”

"Hmm." I responded lightly, looking at her with slightly lowered eyes, guessing her identity.

Very young, in his early twenties, obviously wearing a set of smoky gray sportswear and white sneakers, but still wearing delicate light makeup, he doesn't look athletic at all.

And if I'm not mistaken, they should have come out of a fitness center, and the purpose should be ...... Wait for me......

My body just fell, and the fitness instructor laughed, "The kid is quite hanging." ”

...... "I want to say it's okay, if it weren't for the fact that your muscles are a little scary, I guess I can be a little more hanging."

I didn't say a word, the woman laughed, turned her head and glanced at the coach in a charming way, "Why are you scaring him?" ”

“？” Isn't it to clean me up?

According to my understanding, they will appear here, either knowing that I took Li Jiayi's money, or knowing that I have an ambiguous relationship with Li Jiayi.

I was still confused, so the woman stepped forward and put her hand around my shoulder...... That's right, I'm half a head shorter and I still hug my shoulders very boldly, isn't this Nima my brother's signature move? I really didn't expect that there would be a day when the position was reversed.

"I'm cousin Jiayi." She said as she turned me around.

I looked at her sideways, and I saw her delicately drawn eyebrows, the corners of which flew up slightly, very beautiful......

"Hello sister."

She paused as she took a step forward, turned to look at me, paused for a second to let go of my shoulder and smiled.

"......" I didn't say anything, just looked at her.

She paused, raised her lips slightly and lowered her jaw towards the fitness center, and the fitness coach named Lao Xing snorted.

I lowered my eyes and walked towards the fitness center, followed by another man.

I was ready to be beaten up, but I didn't expect Li Jiayi's cousin to take me to the rest area to sit, pick up the cigarette case from the brown glass table, smoke a cigarette, and ask me, "Can you smoke?" ”

Of course I nodded, and she threw the cigarette case directly to me, and I took it, and she turned her head and waved to the two men to let them go away.

The old Xingpi glanced at me with a smile, but when he turned his eyes to look at the woman, his expression became a little flattering, "Li Simu, you are really slippery with your hands to unload the mill and kill the donkey." ”

"......" Li Simu?

I took out a cigarette from the cigarette case, and at the same time looked sideways at the woman who claimed to be Li Jiayi's cousin, and saw her smile disapprovingly, hunched over and picked up the lighter on the coffee table, "I don't know who begged to be my donkey." ”

The man standing on the side laughed all at once, until the smile on the corner of Lao Xing's lips looked a little dry, and he raised his hand and knocked on his head, "My fault." ”

Li Simu looked a little unaware of him, and the other man raised his hand and pushed him, and then the two turned around and walked towards the gym equipment in the distance.

After Li Simu lit the cigarette, he moved the cigarette away with his dark red nail polish hand, exhaled the smoke, and then turned his head and threw the lighter at me.

I raised my hand to catch it, a little strange, Li Jiayi and her cousin are completely two types......

"Are you dating Jiayi?" She asked.

I lowered my eyes and thought for a second, "Not yet." ”

Yes, not yet, it's ambiguous at best.

Her delicately drawn eyebrows raised, and I ignored her questioning gaze and lit the cigarette in my mouth.

Later, she asked me, why did she come to Jiayi since she didn't have a relationship, and then Jiayi secretly ran out of the piano store where did she go with me?

There's nothing to be said ulteriorly, just drink a cup of milk tea, and I'll just say it directly.

This time, she didn't question it, but suddenly said: "This man, no matter how poor he is, he can't use a woman's money." ”

My body froze suddenly, my heart felt like something had pierced me, and I had some difficulty breathing.

I tried to pretend to be calm, but I couldn't control the heat rushing up my head, so I hunched over, put my elbows on my knees, and lowered my head for another two points, "I borrowed it." ”

"When will it be returned?"

"......" I pinched the cigarette fingers unconsciously clenched, then slowed the cigarette to my left hand, straightened up a little, and took out the 1,000 from my pants bag and put it on the coffee table, "The remaining three months." ”

The air fell silent for a moment, and after a while, I saw her hand reach over, and her fingertips followed the stack of coins, and then moved in her direction, but it only moved in front of her, and when it was confiscated, I let go.

I retracted my gaze and took a puff of my cigarette, and she suddenly said, "Then you and Jiayi ......"

"I'm not coming to her." I came today to pay back.

Seriously, I don't really know when I'll be able to pay back the rest, but I know very well that I can't do it with her.

I don't want to make people a mess like I used to be, for the sake of damn vanity, for the sake of petty interests......

It's like I'm going to face Li Simu now, and I can't be justified if I hurt my self-esteem, isn't it all because of my own behavior?

There was another half-silence, and Li Simu chuckled suddenly, "You are self-aware and quite smart." ”

"......" a slap and a candy?

"At 8 o'clock in the evening, go to Lushui Bay to find me."

“？？？” I shuddered in my chest and looked up at her.

She leaned back, crossed her legs, and rested her cigarette hand on her knee, "Let's go." ”

"......" I wrinkled my eyebrows, paused and stretched out my hand, snuffed out the half-lit cigarette in the ashtray, stood up and walked out.

As soon as he arrived at the door, Li Simu's voice suddenly came from behind him, "You can not come." ”

I stopped, turned my head to look at her, and I saw her leaning sideways, her hands on the back of the couch, looking at me with her lips raised.

I didn't speak, turned around and walked out of the fitness center, and when I walked to the elevator, I looked towards the piano shop, and at this distance, the glass reflection was very bright, but I still saw that no one was sitting in front of the piano.

When I got back, I sat on the couch and thought about it for a long time, and when it was time for dinner in the afternoon, my grandmother called me.

Xu is that I have been too quiet for the past week, and she is a little unaccustomed to it, and asks me how I have been lately?

I shook my head and said it was nothing, but she looked incredulous, and asked me why Zhang Bin didn't come to me these days, whether it was because of the quarrel that night.

My mind flashed to the scene when I arrived at Zhang Bin's house again, and I lowered my head to pick up rice.

My grandmother was silent and said: "They are all pig friends and dog friends, it's good to have less contact, they don't come, not only me and your grandfather are clean, but you are also in order." ”

I lowered my eyes and nodded, but I didn't say anything, and I wanted to say in my heart, in fact, I am also a good person.

In the evening, I went to find Li Simu, in my opinion, I can't hide from coming, if a lesson can pay off the rest of the money, it's actually not bad.

There are a lot of bars in Lushuiwan, I used to come to them often, but they were all in those small bars next to it, and the ink decoration was too high-end, I hadn't been there, but I knew it.

It was only 7:40 when I stood at the door, the door was open, I took a deep breath and walked in, and the man standing in the bar looked at me, wearing a white shirt and an inky vest, looking about 20, about the same age as me.

He didn't speak, just looked at me, and I stepped forward, "Is Sister Li here?" ”

He immediately sighed and laughed, "Sister Li is not here, do you have anything to do with her?" ”

"She made an appointment with me, eight o'clock, I seem to be early."

As soon as he heard that it was an appointment, his smile grew wider and wider, with a sense of flattery, and then he immediately walked out of the bar, arranged for me to sit down and wait, and asked me what I wanted to drink.

I glanced sideways at the wine cabinet behind the bar and said, "Give me a glass of cold water." ”

"Okay, you wait."

"Thank you." I don't even know why I'm so polite.

"You're welcome, you're welcome." As he spoke, he turned and walked towards the bar.

I took out a cigarette from my bag, lit it and smoked it, and after a while the man brought me ice water, I poured it again, and sat quietly on the sofa in the corner, smoking a cigarette while looking at the décor of the bar, and not at the wine cabinet behind the counter.

It was too boring to sit alone, so I pinched my cigarette and wanted to light it, and as soon as I took out my cigarette, I saw the man standing in the bar smiling and barking at the door.

"Sister Li—"

I paused my hand, silently put the cigarette back into the cigarette case, and as I put it up, I raised my eyes and saw the slender figure walk in.

The black tight-fitting dress outlines the bumpy figure, the long hair is still draped behind the head, and a small black bag with a silver chain is thrown in his hand.

The man smiled and lowered his jaw in my direction and said, "Someone is looking for me." ”

She paused, turned her head to look at me, then turned around, smiled, and said, "It's early." ”
