48
One drop, two drops, three drops. The autumn rain had long since stopped, and the water droplets from the eaves dripped on the rain sun board of the dormitory, making a clear sound in the dusk.
The sound was amplified by the rain panel, and it hummed in resonance. Liu Yiyi sat in front of the window reading a book, counting the drops of water in her heart.
When I counted to six hundred and seventeen, I suddenly felt that I had counted out of order, and I counted from the beginning, one drop, two drops, three drops.
The hum of the dripping water made Liu Yiyi feel even more hollow in her heart, she was expecting that the sound of the drop would be gone after counting a thousand times, and she would be able to read with peace of mind, but she was disappointed.
She stared at the book, her eyes intent, trying to match the voice with perseverance. But the buzz is still so persistent, calm, and wants to ring until the end of time.
Liu Yiyi sighed, closed the book, and admitted defeat. In the past few months, Liu Yiyi feels that she is used to loneliness, but today it is a little unbearable.
During this time, Ah Yu introduced two boyfriends to her, proposed candidates and said that they were careless and had no sense of responsibility, and Liu Yiyi didn't understand, she didn't want to be responsible in saying this, what did she say first, or for her good, she didn't have to be serious about the game.
Ah Yu said that the two of them were still handsome guys, and Liu Yiyi didn't meet each other, so she laughed it off. She even suspected that one of them was Ah Yu's past friend, otherwise how could she know so carefully?
Liu Yiyi feels that there are still good men in this world, at least one, and this man will one day discover himself, or be discovered by himself.
With this belief, Liu Yiyi persevered in so many lonely days. But gradually, this belief was shaken a little.
Have it? Where is he? If you are serious, if he is not serious, your seriousness will be meaningless; You hold on, he doesn't stick to it, and your stick is meaningless.
Liu Yiyi imagined that in Lucheng, in Beijing and Shanghai, how many men and women were cornered by loneliness and threw their bodies and minds into the game of love.
Gameplay love doesn't ask about yesterday or tomorrow, only today, or even tonight. The game also needs to have a good feeling and passion, and that's all there is to make sense.
The people of the game turn the big problems of love, loyalty, responsibility, family, and the future into small problems of tonight and this year's entertainment, so they are free, liberated, and light.
The water from the eaves is still dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping, dripping. Liu Yiyi suddenly felt an inexplicable irrepressible anxiety, as if her chest was about to crack.
She couldn't stay a minute, and she wanted to run away from the monotonous sound at once. She went downstairs, out the door, into the street.
The night in Lucheng is very busy, which reflects the essence of the city more than the day. Cars, neon signs, shops, went far, far away, still cars, neon signs, shops.
There is an intoxicating power in this exuberance, and once you experience it, you can never leave. But the prosperity in front of her has an irony for Liu Yiyi, which seems to be a mockery of her loneliness.
She stubbornly walked forward, walked, suddenly, stopped, this is the Lanyuan Hotel. She remembered that Manager Xue had brought her here three years ago.
The lights on the second floor flickered and flickered, and it was the ballroom. Liu Yiyi unconsciously walked to the gate, the automatic door rotated, and she involuntarily shook her body and went in.
After entering, I stood in the lobby for a minute, feeling that I was a little out of shape, so I got on the elevator and came to the door of the ballroom.
She asked the ticket seller how much a ticket was, and she knocked on the glass and motioned for her to look at it herself. She was startled when she saw fifty dollars.
In school, that's two or three. When she was about to leave, a man in his thirties came, and when he saw her hesitation, he said, "I'll buy a ticket for you." Before she could reply, the man had already handed the money in.
Liu Yiyi came to her senses and took out the money to give it to him, but he didn't want it. Liu Yiyi said: "Then I'll go." The man grabbed her by the sleeve and said, "Yes, give it to me, give it to me." There weren't many people inside, so Liu Yiyi casually found a seat to sit on, and the person followed behind and sat opposite her naturally.
Liu Yiyi thought, you can sit down, what's the matter with me, and after dancing a song later, I'll sit over there.
A waiter came to her and asked her what she wanted, and Liu Yiyi knew that she was going to be gentle again, and said, "I'm not thirsty." The man on the other side said, "Two glasses of orange juice." The orange juice was delivered, the man gestured, and the waiter put the orange juice in front of Liu Yiyi.
Liu Yiyi said: "I'm not thirsty. The man said, "Then don't drink it." Liu Yiyi thought that he would invite him to dance soon, but he didn't invite her, and no one else invited her.
Liu Yiyi observed this dance hall, and it was not necessarily particularly luxurious, but the women in it were all very classy, temperamental, and they were all well-dressed.
This made her feel stressed, uncomfortable, and a little weak, thinking that she would sit for a while and just leave.
After two more tunes, the man said, "Since you bought it, let's dance one." "Very politely invited her into the pool.
Liu Yiyi felt that he danced very well, as if he was about to float. After dancing a song, Liu Yiyi hesitated whether to sit in a different place, and the man said, "Since you're here, let's take a sip." This solved a problem for Liu Yiyi, she felt that this person understood a woman's heart very well.
After sitting down, the two began to talk, and Liu Yiyi knew that his surname was Jia, and he was the deputy director of a large factory in Anyin, and he came to the University of Finance for further study.
Mr. Jia said, "Why did you come here to dance alone?" Liu Yiyi said, "Who are you coming with?" He said, "You're a girl!" Liu Yiyi said: "I haven't seen the government issue a document that prohibits the girl from coming alone." He also said, "If you signed the document today, I won't come next time." He said, "I wanted to sign it, but I was reluctant to sign it when I saw you." And he said, "I am alone in Lucheng." Liu Yiyi was silent, feeling that this sentence was a bit weird.
He said: "I really don't have a place to go at night, so I sit here for a while." Liu Yiyi said: "I'll also sit for a while." Mr. Jia said, "Why don't you have nowhere to go?" There should be too many places to go, and I can't go there. Liu Yiyi said, "Where do you want me to go?" Mr. Jia said, "Where are you going?" You're so young, so pretty, where do you say young and beautiful girls go? "Liu Yiyi listened very pleasantly, and there was a hint of vigilance in the comfort, just a few words from you want me to disarm?
With this vigilance, Liu Yiyi is very down-to-earth, even if she says it, she can say whatever she wants, if she wants to pry open the door and get in, it is impossible, she will not be hot-headed.
She said, "You're telling you a lot of truth. Mr. Jia smiled and said, "I'm telling the truth." Liu Yiyi said: "That's why I said you are very truthful. "The two of them danced and talked for a while, and danced and talked for a while.
The dancing is very devoted, and the words are very speculative. At the end of the song, Mr. Jia told her a phone number, and said the number twice, it was a mobile phone number.
Mr. Jia asked her to repeat her mobile phone number and said, "You have a good memory." After going downstairs, Mr. Jia said, "I'll drive you!" Liu Yiyi wanted to say no, but nodded, thinking that this is really a successful person!
Mr. Jia, who was driving the car, said: "I am alone in Lucheng, you can call me when you want to dance, and call me when you are idle." Liu Yi responded, and memorized the mobile phone number in her heart.
Mr. Jia said: "I live in the front, do you go upstairs and sit, just sit." Liu Yiyi suddenly remembered that Miao Xiaohui had told seven big lies about men, and she only remembered six, and it turned out that the seventh was
"Come to my house just sit and sit". Liu Yiyi said: "It's too late today. Mr. Jia didn't say more, sent Liu Yiyi to the company, made a phone call, and swished away.
When she went upstairs, Liu Yiyi felt in a good mood, and the depression when she went out seemed to have no good reason.
When I entered the dormitory, I saw Ah Yu sitting on the bed with his fingernails trimmed, and he put the phone under his neck to talk to someone.
Ah Yu was in the dormitory, Liu Yiyi felt a sense of relief, and found that the sound of dripping water was gone, and her heart became more relaxed.
She waited for Ah Yu to finish the call, but Ah Yu was always endless. Ah Yu finished trimming his fingernails, and then bowed down to trim his toenails.
Liu Yiyi heard that she was talking to Manager Xu on the phone, and knew that it would not be over for a while, so she wrapped herself in a blanket and went to sleep.
Finally, Ah Yu finished the phone, Liu Yiyi sat up, and wanted Ah Yu to ask where she went.
But Ah Yu didn't ask, but asked her why she didn't sleep. Liu Yiyi said: "I can't sleep. I wanted to wait for Ah Yu to ask why, but she still didn't ask, and said, "Yiyi you are not like me, you never lose sleep." Liu Yiyi said: "I can't sleep." Ah Yu finally noticed her expression and said, "Is there any good news?" Liu Yiyi said: "What good news can I have? I'm so stupid every day. And he said, "I've gone out for a little tonight." He smiled shyly.
Ah Yu said, "Who did you meet?" Liu Yiyi said, "Who can I meet?" And he said, "I have met one of those people." And he told him in detail about the events of the night.
Ah Yu said: "Do you want to communicate with him? Liu Yiyi said: "I don't know yet." Ah Yu said: "If you want to be serious, just ignore him." Liu Yiyi said: "The first time he saw me, he asked me to go to his place to sit, didn't he feel good?" Ah Yu said: "Listen to him, I'm alone in Lucheng, you taste it, and several layers of meaning he wants to express are in it." He is free now, and no one cares about him; I want to have a relationship with you, and not in the ordinary sense; He has a home, not in Lucheng, but in a foreign country; It can't have anything more to do with you, he told you about the situation, and he won't be responsible for the future. Liu Yiyi thought about it carefully, and the meaning of that sentence was indeed very rich, and said: "He is so cunning!" Ah Yu said, "That's a hunter who hunts for beauty, otherwise what would he be doing there alone?" If you figure it out, following him is an option. Make it clear in advance, how much is a month. Liu Yiyi covered her face with her hands and smiled: "I really didn't think about it." Ah Yu said, "Who is stupid? Girls have been young in the past few years, gold is average, and the market economy is there. You're still young anyway, so it's too late. Where is youth wasted? If you don't consume anything, that's a loss. Anyway, it's for the money, and it's not emotional. No one can lose themselves, and nothing can move their feelings. I've seen as many girls figure it out. A few years back, I also embodied the value of youth. Don't be like me, you didn't spend any money. Looking back suddenly, youth has only gained one process, and everything else has been zeroed. Men can do this, women can't, they have to rely on youth to ensure their lives. Liu Yiyi's heart beat when she heard it, and said, "Don't say it so scary!" Ah Yu smiled and said: "It's like this, it's not romantic, what can you do?" Wanting the world to revolve around you is the idea of a girl your age. The world will indeed revolve around you, you are young! Are you not young to try? Even Vivien Leigh spent her later years in loneliness, let alone us mortals? ”
