Chapter 8: Encounters
Lan Chengyu looked at his watch when he got off the bus, it was already more than 10 o'clock in the evening, and he and Li Jian had drunk a lot of wine tonight, and they had been drinking for so long. He walked towards the rented community, faintly drunk, and the evening breeze in Spring City was also very pleasant.
Seeing a familiar figure not far ahead, Lan Chengyu felt an electric shock all over his body, and most of the wine woke up, that beautiful figure was Shangguan Yufei, and her figure was also beautiful under the night light.
Seeing Shangguan Yufei walking alone not far in front, Lan Chengyu didn't dare to go up directly to talk, and walked quietly behind her, not daring to go too close and reluctant to go too far.
He quickly thought about many ways to strike up a conversation in his head, but he didn't think any of them were suitable. Somehow, he suddenly remembered Li Yi's way of accosting him that day, and simply mustered up his courage, since he likes people, why not be direct?
Shangguan Yufei has never returned home so late in the more than a year since she moved here, she lives in a high-end community, and the environment is relatively quiet. It's so late, and the section of the road adjacent to the front of the community is lined with few pedestrians, and most people in this neighborhood come and go by car.
She regretted a little in her heart, she knew that she didn't want to get on the bus at the door of the unit just now, she should have waited a little longer, and took a taxi back.
Lan Chengyu, who followed Shangguan Yufei, mustered up his courage at this time, walked a few steps forward quickly to greet him, "Hey, Shangguan Yufei, hello! I met you again by coincidence." After saying this, Lan Chengyu felt his heart beat wildly.
Shangguan Yufei turned her head in some surprise, she was really frightened by Lan Chengyu who suddenly greeted her, if it weren't for the pedestrians on the road, she would really be startled.
She looked carefully at the handsome-looking boy in front of her, feeling a little familiar but couldn't remember, and said with some vigilance: "Hello, are you?
Lan Chengyu was stunned and blushed, and said, "Hehe! You may have forgotten, we met across the street a few days ago, I was Li Yi's classmate, remember?"
Lan Chengyu awkwardly explained the reason why he knew her, I really don't know if she can remember.
Shangguan Yufei thought about it in her mind for a long time before she let out a sigh, and then said with a smile like a silver bell: "It seems to be oh! You seem to be called Lan Chengyu, right?"
"Yes, you remember my name!Did you get off work so late?" Lan Chengyu said a little nervously.
"yes, I'm working late today. Shangguan Yufei said, she felt that the polite boy in front of her was not annoying, and there was a feeling that people could trust, maybe it was out of her curiosity and good impression of Lan Chengyu!
"Where do you work, do you often work overtime?" Lan Chengyu asked curiously, wanting to find something to talk about to make herself less embarrassed.
"I did an internship at a radio station, and I don't usually work overtime, so I had a rehearsal today so I got off work late. Shangguan Yufei said.
"Radio, are you the anchor?" Lan Chengyu said with some excitement.
Not far ahead was the entrance of the community where he and Li Yi rented a house, and he was a little hesitant whether to continue to walk with her or say goodbye and break up.
"You're talking about the host, I'm just an intern host now, so I can only be regarded as a chore. You and Li Yi are college classmates, do you work together?" Shangguan Yufei asked.
"We were college classmates, but we didn't work together, he was in the construction company, and I was in the design company. Lan Chengyu also walked through the intersection of his community when he finished answering.
He looked up and saw that the light in the living room in his room was on not far away, and it should be that Si Li Yi had returned. He looked at the road ahead and laughed at himself in his heart, "Am I so dazzled by a beautiful woman?
Shangguan Yufei had heard Li Yi say that they were renting a house in this community last time, she seemed to feel Lan Chengyu's embarrassment, and asked softly, "You should live here, right?"
"Oh, yes, I live in this neighborhood. Lan Chengyu smiled very embarrassedly, his mind was actually seen through, "It's so late, the road ahead is a little dark, can I be honored to send you back?"
After speaking, Lan Chengyu's face turned red, and he was at a loss to make a gentleman's courtesy move, looking embarrassing and funny. Even Lan Chengyu himself was surprised that he couldn't help but make such a move.
"Hehe......" Shangguan Yufei smiled lightly, "Thank you! I live in the community not far ahead, to be honest, I'm really a little scared of the road ahead, so I'll leave it to you." ”
It seemed that in order to cooperate with Lan Chengyu's gentlemanly etiquette, Shangguan Yufei also politely agreed. Her beautiful and touching smile made Lan Chengyu feel like she was melted by honey.
After walking through a quiet street, I came to the community where Shangguan Yufei lived. They said goodbye at the gate of the community, Lan Chengyu wanted to send her to the door of the house, but she politely refused.
The community she lives in is the high-end community that Lan Chengyu often looks at in the window of her room, Lan Chengyu often admires it as a scenery of the city, and the skyline of these beautiful buildings echoes with the sunset in the evening sunset, which is indeed a scenery.
Lan Chengyu walked back to the dormitory alone, and today's encounter made him intoxicated all night. However, there was a faint sense of loss in my heart, thinking that the place where people lived would cost eighty percent of my monthly salary just for the monthly rent. He could feel that there was a big difference in their lives, which was the main reason for his loss.
After returning home, Lan Chengyu finished washing up and went into the room alone to perform the breathing exercises that he now had to practice every day. According to Dao Ran, he needs to practice for more than an hour every day.
Sitting cross-legged, he gathered his mind and began to concentrate on his cultivation, but in less than five minutes, Lan Chengyu found that his internal breath was difficult to reconcile, and the collision between fast and slow times made it difficult for him to control.
After half an hour in vain, Lan Chengyu was unable to concentrate after all. When I opened my eyes, I found that I was already sweating profusely, and I didn't know what caused my cultivation?
He got out of bed and pushed open the window, and a fresh breeze blew in, and he noticed a slight smell of alcohol in his sweat. It suddenly dawned on me that it was alcohol that made it difficult for me to control my breathing, and all the breathing and breathing just now turned into alcohol, and I meditated in vain for half an hour.
Lan Chengyu didn't forcibly cultivate anymore, and quietly looked at the night scene outside the window, the city had fallen into a quiet night. There are sporadic lights still lit up nearby, while the neon lights of the downtown area in the distance are still dazzling.
Lan Chengyu looked at the high-end community where Shangguan Yufei lived, the tall building and sporadic lights, and the straight-line distance from him was only a few hundred meters. He suddenly thought of an excited thought, at this time the alcohol had been excreted from the body, so his clairvoyance would be handy.
He quickly zoomed his eyes into the windows of the tall buildings with their lights on. After ten minutes, he withdrew his gaze, a little disappointed, because he didn't see the figure he wanted to see. But when I saw some different scenes, I suddenly felt that my behavior was a little dirty in my heart for a while.
He calmed down, went back to bed, sat cross-legged and continued to meditate. This time he quickly settled down, and when he woke up, he felt very comfortable, and it was already past two o'clock in the morning, and he sat quietly for a while before falling asleep.
