Chapter 9: Drunken Love
That night, Song Jie and several of her followers and admirers played until about two o'clock in the morning before they dispersed.
After singing, I went to a barbecue and drank a late-night beer......
During this time, they also played many drinking games - for example, shooting seven rings, rolling dice, guessing toothpicks, truth or dare, fifteen or twenty, big and small watermelons, Russian turntable......
These drinking games, in the eyes of Tang Shu, who was still very little born in society, can be said to be full of tricks, and some of them are rare to him, and they are simply unheard of and unseen-
And tonight, Song Jie invited him to come to the song city to play, and Tang Shu was an eye-opener......
In addition to drinking, Song Jie also came up with all kinds of tricks to tease people, and even torture people-
For example, she asked someone to dress up Luo Yan, who was full of pockmarked faces, as a dog and bear with a big head and a long mouth, and small eyes and ears, and fed him salt water to drink, and told him to crawl on the ground......
Although this bear looked a little weird and made everyone laugh, Luo Yan did it willingly in order to make Song Jie happy and not disappoint her, and did it extremely vividly......
Song Jie also asked Zheng Wei to perform card magic.
Zheng Wei didn't say a word, so he obediently played the poker on the table and performed-
After Song Jie washed the deck of playing cards, she casually divided them into three and put them on the table, so that Zheng Wei could know what kind of card the top one of the three cards was......
These wonderful performances won bursts of applause and shouts - Feng Jin raised his glass to toast and congratulated Luo Yan and Zheng Wei.
And for Shen Pu, who had small eyes and no brilliance, seeing that Luo Yan and Zheng Wei had done their best to get her favor in front of Song Jie, he did not show weakness and did his best......
He is a literati, but he is full of emotions - he likes to write a little poetry in his spare time...... He opened his mouth and recited the sour limerick of love he had recently written......
These followers and admirers also asked Song Jie, a beautiful woman, to give them a striptease dance — just a coat, of course, which is clearly different from professional striptease......
All these tricks are too numerous to mention-
Except for Yu Qiang, most people are happy.
I saw Yu Qiang sitting in the corner in a daze, frowning to himself, sighing, and eclipsed-
Somehow, or who provoked him. A person is drinking sullen wine, as if he is sulking at whom......
His eyes were bloodshot, his face was red, his fists were clenched, and sometimes he heard a "creaking, creaking" sound......
It was as if Yu Qiang was a fierce beast that would rush towards everyone at any moment and devour them even to their bones in one bite......
However, Song Jie walked up to Yu Qiang, and Yu Qiang came head-on......
Song Jie immediately stopped, glared at Yu Qiang fiercely with a vicious look, and pointed to his forehead with a finger, scaring him with his eyes......
Yu Qiang willingly retreated, and then hid in his corner, becoming seemingly gentle and weak......
They finally got exhausted, exhausted, and tired.
……
Tang Shu had never come home so late at night, he was tired and drowsy, but he still felt happy and sweet, and his heart was full of joy.
He took a taxi back to the community with Song Jie-
Before returning to their respective homes, Song Jie shook Tang Shu's thick and powerful hands tightly and hugged him gently.
Tang Shu already had the taste of wine, but he felt that Song Jie's wine taste was bigger than him, and it seemed that Song Jie had already drunk a lot......
- However, Tang Shu saw her staggering, waved his hand at his mouth, and smiled mysteriously.
"Song Jie, I'...... I'll take you to your doorstep, right? ”
"No need to ......"
Song Jie refused......
The night air, dull and damp, blew on Tang Shu's hot face. It seems that a heavy thunderstorm is coming-
In the sky, dark clouds were expanding and moving, visibly changing their shape like black smoke.
The breeze trembled uneasily in the blackened woods, and somewhere in the distance of the sky, the thunder and lightning seemed to secretly roar roughly, hoarsely.
Tang Shu opened the door lightly and quietly slipped into his room.
Then, he did not turn on the light, and stayed quietly in the night alone...... Although he felt a little sleepy, Tang Shu concluded that he couldn't sleep-
Therefore, he neither undressed nor lay in bed.
He sat down in a chair and sat for a long time as if by magic. The kind of affection he felt for Song Jie turned out to be so fresh, so sweet......
Tang Shu sat and looked around slightly, except for the thunder in the distance, there was silence all around......
He felt a little thirsty - "grunt, grunt" and drank a large glass of warm water...... Then he didn't move, and breathed slowly.
While thinking about it carefully, he smiled silently.
Occasionally, it occurred to him that he was in love, or that he was already in love – but this was just his delusion......
He wishfully believes that he loves a dissolute woman like Song Jie who has many followers and admirers-
He thought of this...... I couldn't help but feel chills down my spine, cold on my forehead, and creepy all over my body...... Are all girls like this now?
Tang Shu thought.
In this darkness, Song Jie's slightly chubby, pink, and haggard face quietly appeared in front of him again and again-
For a while, it emerges as clearly as a movie, portraying the inside of the brain......
After a while, it floated calmly and coldly like a white cloud...... Disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Her lips, which were as brilliant as peach blossoms, were still so inscrutable and slightly smiling—unpredictable and incomprehensible; Like clouds around the fog, confusing.
Her two pupils were like awls—piercing, frightening eyes, and still looking at him from the side with questioning, contemplative tenderness......
- just like the moment when Tang Shu separated from her.
These, these...... It is called directly, I can't see clearly, I can't touch it, I can't guess it, I can't sigh endlessly.
Thinking of these...... Tang Shu couldn't sit still, he stood up, tiptoed gently, walked to the bed, didn't even take off his clothes, and carefully leaned his head on the pillow
- It seems that the slightest sharpness of these movements will interrupt the feelings, the doubts, the worries that he has been carrying without interruption......
Tang Shu immediately lay down, but he didn't close his eyes immediately.
Because, he can't sleep yet......
He stood up and could clearly see faint reflections in the distance, constantly reflecting on the walls and curtains of his room.
He lifted himself up slightly and looked out the window. - The window frame was clearly distinguishable from the mysterious, vaguely whitish windowpane.
"The storm is coming!" Tang Shu thought, "-The storm is really coming!" If it comes, no one can stop it. ”
However, this lightning was happening far away, so that even the sound of thunder could be faintly heard.
But I saw in the distant sky, intermittently, suddenly flashed the lightning that was not very bright, long like a dragon snake, as if there were many small dragon snakes—
These flickering lightning—
It is not so much a sudden twinkle as the wings of a dying bird, or the tail of a dying little dragon snake, fluttering spasmodically before dying.
Tang Shu looked at these lightning bolts, and it was really difficult to sleep.
He suddenly got up from the bed again, walked to the window and stood there, and saw the lightning in the distance without stopping for a moment.
- but it is "only thunder and no rain", or "thunder is loud and rain is small".
Tang Shu withdrew his gaze from a distance-
Looking at the silent community garden, I raised my eyes to look at the dark park where the lights had long been extinguished, and I also looked at the slightly colorful three-dimensional picture of the high-rise buildings and other buildings shining in the distance......
It was as if these sights were also trembling and trembling in the faint electric light that suddenly flashed in the distance......
Tang Shu looked and looked at ......
- These inaudible lightning, these reserved dazzling flashes, seemed to echo the mysterious and silent love fire that also suddenly burned in his heart.
……
At this moment, the east began to light up, and the morning glow appeared, reflecting half of the sky—the sky was covered with many bright red spots.
As the sun rises, everything turns red, white, and clear, and the lightning in the distance decreases – their flickering has become rarer......
Then, gradually, the lightning drowned in the day that had come, and finally disappeared into the undoubted sight that had awakened—
…… Tang Shu's lightning-like passion for Song Jie that burst out from his heart also disappeared with it.
He felt so tired......
However, Song Jie's voice and smile still dominate his heart, appearing in his heart, lingering.
…… It's just that the image itself seems quiet, and so—silent, silent—
This image resembles a black swan flying out of the grass of a moor......
Detached from the other ugly images that surround it, the neck is slender and feminine, like a black jade pencil, outlining flawless curves.
So, Tang Shu was going to sleep...... When he was about to fall asleep, he fell down in front of Song Jie's perfect image for the last time with a parting, trusting affection......
Ahh......h
This is the first awakening of his love for a woman - it is the feeling of first love, but it is the intoxicating joy and joy of clinging...... There are also sour pains and unclear doubts......
