Chapter 236: The Lonely Man
Nightfall, rooftop.
Beer cans were scattered all over the place.
Nuno sat on the edge of the rooftop, his feet dangling irregularly.
The sea under the neon lights looks brilliantly colorful.
Nono tossed aside the finished beer can in his hand, reopened a bottle, and drank it with his head back.
Probably because she had drunk too much alcohol, her neck and cheeks looked rosy and hot.
When the evening breeze blew the dark red curls that fell behind her, the star pendant dangling from her earlobes shimmered like stars.
Her eyes were a little misty, and she kept repeating the action of pouring herself wine.
The mobile phone was left aside by her, and the screen that lit up from time to time obviously had a lot of calls, but she didn't answer them.
After drinking the can again, Nono shook the beer can vigorously, and after making sure that it was gone, he threw it aside and reached for another bottle.
But before her, the bottle was taken first.
Nono glanced up at the boy who appeared, "How did you find it?" ”
"When I used to be unhappy, I would go up to the rooftop to blow the wind and watch the quiet world for a long time." Lu Mingfei opened the pull tab and handed the wine to Nuono.
"Then you should be lonely, right?" Nuo Nuo was stunned for a moment, took the beer handed by Lu Mingfei, and said in silence.
"I don't know." Lu Mingfei picked up a jar of wine and opened it, sat next to Nuo Nuo, and raised his head to take a sip.
"I thought you were here to persuade me to drink less." Nuno said in the evening breeze, "Shouldn't the plot go like this?" The girl was in a lost mood, and then the boy said intimately, don't drink too much, drinking too much is not good for your health, and then balabala a bunch to get the girl's favor. ”
"Hey, you said it earlier, why don't we do it again?" Lu Mingfei looked at Nuo Nuo and said,
"Besides, you understand it so well, it seems that you know more than me, I feel that it is useless to do this."
"There are so many people chasing me, can I still not understand?" Nuno smiled, "You know, I had a boyfriend when I was in kindergarten, and the whole class was my boyfriend, right?" ”
"Great, why are they willing?" Lu Mingfei asked curiously.
"Whoever doesn't want to, fight until they do." Nuo Nuo shook his calves, raised the wine and gestured to Lu Mingfei.
"If I were in the same kindergarten as you, wouldn't it be doom?" Lu Mingfei picked up the wine and touched it with Nuo Nuo.
"What? Are you sure I'll take you? I'm also very picky, okay, maybe I'll exclude you? Nuo Nuo glanced at Lu Mingfei.
"Hey, you're going too far, it's too stinging, isn't it?" Lu Mingfei shouted.
On the rooftop at night, the two people chatted like this, and the neon lights paved a bright background, but they couldn't see the appearance of the two people.
"Hey, Lu Mingfei." Nono shouted.
Lu Mingfei turned his head to look and saw Nuo Nuo looking at him.
Nuo Nuo's face was flushed, and Lu Mingfei could even feel the heat in the air.
"What's wrong?" Lu Mingfei said.
"What kind of person are you? Why are you helping me so much? Nono asked.
Lu Mingfei looked away and took a sip of wine, "Why is there a reason, I just want to help." ”
"After my mother left, no one cared about me anymore." Nono said, her voice soft.
For many years, and even all the time, she was actually an insecure person.
Because no one believed her, and no one cared about her.
There have been many nights when she closed her eyes and saw the Grim Reaper, wrapped in a white cloth and carrying a huge scythe, descend.
In the midst of recurring nightmares, she always runs away in the endless darkness.
Just take a slow step, and the scythe will fall on her neck.
That nightmare kept reminding her that death was coming, constantly reminding her to run away.
It was in this kind of panic that she came day by day, year after year, until she hid that fear in the deepest part of her heart.
Growing up in such a panic, she actually didn't care about many things.
Even if you have a boyfriend, you just feel like it's time to have a boyfriend.
There is only one condition for her to have a boyfriend, that is, not to let her be annoying, and it is best to belong to the kind of person who seems to be powerful, worthy of her, and makes people feel safe.
And Caesar is precisely this kind.
He is a natural leader, the leader of the lions.
He's the kind of being that catches everyone's eye.
And it just so happened that she could accompany him.
Both people are worthy of each other, so it's natural to be boyfriend and girlfriend, isn't it?
Dragon Slayer Hero, that sounds like a good fit, okay?
She thinks Caesar is better than everyone else, and Caesar thinks it should be a challenge to have a girlfriend who jumps off like a witch.
In fact, if you really want to talk about feelings seriously, Nuno can't say it.
It's just that I don't hate it, I don't dislike it, and I get it.
In fact, many people don't know what she is thinking a lot of the time, including Caesar.
Witches always hide their thoughts, so that no one can easily detect them.
For so many years, she thought it was all over.
However, when the nightmare came to reality, she found that she was still as frightened and helpless as before.
Mom......
No, maybe even mom is fake.
She is like the headmaster said, a ghost who escaped from a black swan harbor.
Everything is fake.
Her life seems to be monitored everywhere.
She even suspected that all her experiences were artificial.
There is a movie called "Truman's World", in which the protagonist lives in the world created by the director, is watched by people all his life, and all his experiences are arranged by the director, but he doesn't know anything, he thinks the world is like this.
But in his world, except for him, everyone is an actor, and everyone wears a mask of falsehood and deception.
Now, Nono is in such a panic.
Is she the ghost who escaped from Black Swan Harbor?
When she looked at everyone now, she felt that the other person was wearing a false mask.
Before that, how could she have thought that the headmaster who was kind and gentlemanly would also have a crazy side, and even turn into a monster.
How could she have thought that the newborn Xia Mi, who looked as delicate as a fairy, would actually be a pure-blooded dragon king?
As the principal of the dragon slaying institution, he actually recruited a dragon king to enroll, and they were still slaying dragons everywhere.
Nono admits that the principal's words, as well as Marina's experience, had a strong impact on her.
Lin Zhengnan's appearance also seems to confirm the principal's words.
Nono's calves retracted and shrunk back.
She gently hugged her legs, and the whole person shrunk up, so helpless.
"Why are you talking to me about this?" Lu Mingfei scratched his head.
"Maybe no one listened, or maybe you happened to be nearby." Nono said softly.
Actually, maybe Nuo Nuo felt Lu Mingfei's heartfelt concern.
The kind of care she had never felt except for her mother.
Even if it was misunderstood as a nerve, he basically followed her every step of the way.
even broke into her and Susie's bedroom for this, and was almost considered a pervert.
Nuno didn't know why Lu Mingfei knew she was in danger.
Perhaps, as she felt, Lu Mingfei really came back from a far, far away place that she couldn't understand.
"Lu Mingfei, thank you." Nono said.
Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
Suddenly, Lu Mingfei felt that this girl was so lonely.
The evening breeze blew, and Lu Mingfei silently raised his head and took a sip of wine.
He seemed to suddenly understand something.
It turns out that people who look big and crazy are actually very lonely inside.
O lonely man, if you just be kind to him, he will pour out his heart and lungs for you.
"Come, drink." Lu Mingfei opened a jar of wine again and handed it to Nuo Nuo, "Don't be afraid, this time, I will protect you." ”
