Chapter 157: Distance
Turning out of the alley, I saw a white Bentley parked on the side of the road.
Su Chengyi suddenly had an urge to sigh.
The presence of these luxury cars in such an old urban area has a very anachronistic feeling.
But now they appear more and more frequently.
The driver of the car saw the two men approaching and immediately got out of the car and opened the door for them.
Compared with Uncle Gao's somewhat sassy agent 007 style, this one is much more normal, obviously only serving as a driver.
"Senior, which side are you used to sitting on?"
Liang Nina didn't greet the driver and asked directly.
That's too much detail.
is too much to pursue everything, obviously because she is overly nervous, for fear that she will not be able to do something properly.
But she is obviously a very self-conscious kind of person in front of others, and she doesn't consider the feelings of others at all.
Seeing that he hadn't answered, the expression on Liang Nina's face became a little panicked.
Su Chengyi shook his head and motioned for her to sit in first.
Liang Nina was very obedient, bent over and raised her legs, and sat in the position inside.
Su Chengyi stood behind and looked away without a trace.
The skirt is too short.
The vehicle starts smoothly and the scent of roses fills the air.
Su Chengyi felt that he had sat in more luxury cars in the past two months than in his previous life combined.
He had his birthday in October, and he hadn't yet turned eighteen years old in the summer vacation of his senior year of high school, so he couldn't get a driver's license.
So I didn't finish the exam until the summer vacation of my freshman year.
I haven't bought a car for any other reason, just because of the rush hour traffic in the magic capital, I know everything.
Although it is a little crowded by subway, it is quite convenient.
Liang Nina's eyes kept quietly going around to look at him, Su Chengyi felt it, but did not respond.
The two were silent for a long time, and Liang Nina asked tentatively:
"Senior, do you want to listen to some music?"
"Okay, it's fine."
Su Chengyi nodded.
It's not that he wants to listen to the song himself, it's just that a little music is easier to relax.
Her current state was so tense that he couldn't talk about anything he wanted to.
So Liang Nina lowered her head and connected to the car Bluetooth, in fact, she didn't know what song to put at all, mainly because she was afraid that Su Chengyi, who usually listened to the song she listened to, would not like to listen to it.
At this time, the driver in the front row probably only heard the command "come to some music", so he directly pressed it to start playing.
"There is a girl named Xiaofang in the village, who is good-looking and kind, with a pair of beautiful big eyes and thick and long braids."
The atmosphere in the car froze instantly.
Su Chengyi glanced at Liang Nina next to him in some surprise.
I can't see that this schoolgirl's style of listening to songs is quite nostalgic, and even Su Zelang may not still listen to this song.
"Thank you for the love you have given me, I will never forget it in this life and this life!
Thank you for the tenderness you gave me and accompanied me through that era.
How many times have I looked back at the road I had traveled,
Best wishes to you, dear girl."
At this time, the driver in the front row finally saw Liang Nina's stiff expression through the rearview mirror, and silently pressed the pause button.
"Senior, this should have been put in the car by my dad before."
Liang Nina lowered her head, feeling her face flush.
"It's okay, I like to listen to old songs."
Su Chengyi couldn't help but want to laugh, but he just put the wrong song.
Then she lowered her head, only to see her hands clenched tightly under the cover of her long hair.
Her fingertips were white, and her nails were obviously sinking into the flesh, but she didn't know it.
Su Chengyi frowned and reached out to hold her wrist.
The palm was hot, and Liang Nina trembled all over, and then raised her head to look at him inexplicably.
"I'll let it go."
After connecting to Bluetooth, Su Cheng thought of the sense of age of the song just now, and in order to relieve her inexplicable nervous thoughts, she simply picked an old song.
"So I shut your eyes for a moment,
Floating in the darkness my anticipation. ”
Wu Bai's "Last Dance", a few years later, because of a popular TV series, became popular all over the country again.
So in the bar where electronic rock used to be played, this brainwashing golden song that was popular in the last century was played again.
The young girls are singing "So close your eyes for the time being" while following the example of the male protagonist, while blocking their eyes with their fingers.
But this song Su Chengyi actually heard it since he was a child.
I have to say that although Su Zelang has various shortcomings, his musical taste does not live up to his former career as the lead singer of a rock band.
Liang Nina really slowly closed her eyes as the lyrics sang, leaned on the back of the seat, and finally looked a little relaxed.
"Suddenly the romance can't be let go,
Tomorrow I'm leaving,
The love you give, the helpless waiting.
Whether I'm walking alone,
I want to hear your retention,
The spring breeze and autumn rain fall and fall, just for loneliness. ”
Su Chengyi looked at her quiet side face, and suddenly found that she and Chu Tianmian were actually not like each other at all.
The reason why I have always felt similar subconsciously before is probably just because I have never looked at Liang Nina seriously.
If Chu Qianmian's key word is cold, then Liang Nina is probably exquisite.
She looks a bit like the kind of BJD doll that was popular for a while.
Su Chengyi had always felt that Liang Nina was probably the same as Chu Qianmian, and she was also a wealthy child in the family, because of her maverick character, it was actually difficult to cultivate and support her if her family background was not good.
Although Chu Tianmian does not have the common eldest lady disease, it is obvious that she will still have the reserve and politeness of the strict upbringing of the family environment.
This is also the reason why all kinds of extracurricular propaganda in No. 1 Middle School have caught her, because she is the only one who can maintain the image of a perfect and untimid diplomat all the time.
Sometimes Su Chengyi would wonder if Chu Qianmian would actually feel weird and tired.
And Liang Nina is almost the opposite of her, which shows that although her family is rich, it has not reached the point of the Chu family.
Therefore, the daughter can also be allowed to live as she wants according to her original personality.
Maybe it was something that suddenly came to mind, and Liang Nina suddenly opened her eyes.
Su Chengyi didn't look away, waiting for her next step.
"Senior, after lunch, do you have any other arrangements for the afternoon?"
"Yes."
Su Cheng thought about it for a while, there was nothing to hide, so he replied truthfully:
"Going to cut your hair, and."
He took the black piece of plastic out of his shirt pocket and shook it in front of her eyes.
"I'm going to find a place to fix this."
Liang Nina raised her eyes and looked, her face did not reveal curiosity, and replied:
"Hearing aids."
Su Chengyi was stunned, she seemed to know very well.
"My family is in the medical device business."
Perhaps sensing Su Chengyi's accident, Liang Nina added:
"If the senior hasn't found a suitable repair shop, I'll take you there later."
That's too much of a coincidence, isn't it?
At that time, he told Lin Tong that he had a friend who was a major in this field, and he really jumped out at this time.
But I really don't have any reliable channels, I just looked up a hearing aid fitting center with a relatively good reputation on the Internet, and I was ready to try my luck in the past.
Now that there is such an opportunity, there is no reason to refuse.
"Okay, thank you."
Su Chengyi put the hearing aid back in his pocket.
"Is the senior going to help someone fix this?"
Liang Nina watched as he buttoned the breast pocket of his white shirt.
"A classmate's sister."
Su Chengyi replied nonchalantly, and Lin Zhiwan's pair of watery pupils suddenly appeared in front of him.
The last time I left, I told her to "come and see her in a few days", but I haven't found any free time.
A few days have already passed, so she couldn't hold it back, and dragged Lin Tong to pass the word that she wanted to invite him to dinner.
Although Lin Zhiwan is a few years older than him and has suffered a lot of unimaginable hardships, she feels that she is still very simple.
I don't know how this strange contrast was formed.,It's obvious that she looks like an intellectual sister.。
"Is the relationship good?"
Liang Nina asked again.
How to define the category of a good relationship, Su Cheng thought about it and replied:
"Not bad."
If it was before, he would have felt that Liang Nina's behavior of asking these questions had no sense of boundaries, and it would be very disgusting.
But now he seemed to know a little bit about her character, and in fact, she didn't realize anything wrong with these behaviors.
Including secretly taking photos in public, sending dozens of messages on WeChat at every turn, and making voice calls one after another.
What's a little more outrageous, stalking, or going to great lengths to imitate the type of girl he would prefer.
She seemed to think that these were normal behaviors, just because she wanted to do them, so she did them.
I don't know how to understand it, but it's also impossible to criticize, because this is probably inseparable from the environment in which she grew up.
But before I knew it, I got used to it, and the communication became quite smooth.
It's still much easier to talk to such a straightforward person than to be a smiling tiger with intrigue.
"I'm very happy that my senior has a lot of people around me now."
Although Liang Nina said this, there was no smile on her face, and she looked a little scary.
If you're not happy, you don't have to say that."
Su Chengyi sighed.
"Is it obvious?"
Liang Nina's face showed a little stunned.
"Hmm."
Su Chengyi's eyes stayed on the tiger's mouth of her palm for a few seconds, and the traces she had pinched out were slowly disappearing, but they were still red.
"Okay, senior, I'm not happy."
After Liang Nina said this, her nails pressed on it unconsciously.
"Don't move."
Su Chengyi stopped it, and her hand immediately retracted like an electric shock, and she honestly carried it behind her back.
"Why are you upset?"
"Because it wasn't like that before."
Liang Nina suddenly turned her head and looked at Su Chengyi with fixed eyes.
"Is this the life that seniors like now? If so, why was it always one person before? ”
Su Chengyi looked at her lifeless pupils like glass, and replied:
"Do you think you used to look better?"
Perhaps. At that time, from morning to night, there was no one around the senior. But that's right, no one else deserves it. ”
Liang Nina showed a look of falling into memory.
Su Chengyi tilted his head, making the eyes of the two meet.
"What about yourself, don't you deserve it?"
"Well, of course not."
Liang Nina's answer was so firm that it didn't even take half a second of hesitation.
The front of the car had already turned into the underground garage of the shopping mall, and under the flickering light, Su Chengyi was silent for a long time.
Just when Liang Nina thought that he would not speak again, he said slowly:
"If it was before, do you think we'll have a chance to get along like we do now?"
Liang Nina was stunned by his question.
"I won't sit in the same car, we won't eat together, I won't ask you out in the first place, I won't even say a word to you. Is that the result you want? ”
The car stopped in the parking space, Su Chengyi unbuckled the seat belt with one hand, and moved his cervical spine.
"After I graduated, I wouldn't tell anyone where I went to school or where I worked. I will just disappear from someone else's vision, from your vision, from your life. Is that the result you want? ”
Liang Nina looked a little dazed, but she still shook her head.
"I'm living like that now."
The lights inside Bentley turned on, and the warm yellow light illuminated Su Chengyi's silhouette a little gently, he smiled, and continued:
"I don't want to go over it."
The driver pulled the door for them, and the two walked to the elevator of the mall.
Liang Nina lowered her head, as if she was still thinking about what he had just said.
Su Chengyi waited for a while, and asked helplessly:
"On the floor?"
"Huh?"
Liang Nina realized that the two had been in the elevator for two minutes, and no one pressed the floor.
She hurriedly pressed down on the 7th floor and brushed her hair.
"This Japanese restaurant. Not bad, golden brick foie gras and deep-sea cod. ”
Su Chengyi nodded and asked:
"Your foie gras is very high-quality, but if I ask if there is a rice bowl, how will your Excellency respond?"
Liang Nina thought about it seriously and replied:
"I see a sea urchin rice bowl."
So sincere.
"How did you come up with the idea of eating Japanese food?"
Su Chengyi lowered his head and checked the Japanese restaurant on the seventh floor of the mall on his mobile phone.
Good guys, 598 per person. For high school students, this is really high.
"Because eating something else may not look good."
Liang Nina replied very frankly,
"And I'm losing weight."
Su Chengyi was stunned for a moment,
"Lose weight?"
Liang Nina wore this miniskirt today, and her exposed legs were as thin as bamboo poles.
Is it serious to say that you want to lose weight at this level?
As soon as the elevator doors opened, two waiters stepped forward to greet them.
"Hello, do you have a reservation?"
"The surname is Liang."
Liang Nina nodded slightly.
"Okay, please go this way."
Two waiters immediately led them to a two-person seat by the window inside the restaurant.
The interior of the store looks pretty good, not like a traditional Japanese restaurant, but rather like some kind of bar-like atmosphere.
The guitarist in the corner played a small song, and after only a few syllables, Su Chengyi could hear that it was "Distance", and the name translates to "distance".
"Do seniors have any taboos?"
Liang Nina took the menu and sketched casually.
At first glance, it is the master who orders and never looks at the price.
"Nope."
She's probably asked this question ten times today.
After sitting in the car for a long time, he was a little thirsty, so Su Chengyi took a sip of the tea in the cup.
It's hot to death by the north, and I want to spit back into the cup in an instant.
But Liang Nina raised her head at this time and asked:
"Do you really want to eat sea urchin rice bowls?"
Su Chengyi had to swallow the hot tea and said "um".
"Is it ordered? I'll go to the bathroom. ”
I felt like my throat was smoking.
"It's done."
She rang the bell, and the waiter next to her came over to confirm the menu, pointing in the direction of going to the bathroom.
"Turn right in front of the restroom."
Su Chengyi rinsed his mouth with ice water and checked whether his mouth was blistered.
I also said that Liang Nina was not relaxed enough, and she didn't relax much.
When I went back, I went around in a circle and walked to the front desk first.
"Hello, let's settle the bill here."
"Okay, a total of one thousand and seven dollars."
The money equivalent to a scholarship, Su Cheng thought, and took out the only bank card he owned from his pocket.
There are about 200,000 yuan in it, all of which are the pocket money of Su Zelang and Yang Liu over the years and the scholarship he has gotten.
"Payment complete. Okay, you get the list. ”
Su Chengyi took the bill, put it in his pocket, and went back to his seat.
In just a few moments, a few dishes have already come up.
"Have you waited a long time?"
"Nope."
Liang Nina listened to the sound of the guitar and was distracted, and she didn't react until he spoke.
On the table are plates of oyster sashimi, bluefin tuna and chilled abalone.
In fact, Su Chengyi has never been very interested in Japanese food, and he only goes to eat a few times occasionally after work.
Oyster sashimi tastes average, and he is not used to eating it. But the tuna has a firm texture and is very delicious.
"Does it taste okay?"
Liang Nina hadn't eaten it herself, so she asked him a little nervously first.
"The tuna is ok."
Su Chengyi commented objectively.
"Oysters are weird."
As soon as the words fell, he shoved them into his mouth.
Liang Nina was about to say something bad and ask the waiter to take it away, she was the kind of person who never cared if food was wasted. But seeing Su Chengyi's behavior of swallowing two bites when he said it was not delicious, the words on his lips were silently taken back.
At this time, salmon and foie gras also came up one after another, followed by his sea urchin rice bowl.
Su Chengyi didn't talk much during the whole process, and was in a state of serious cooking.
I feel that I have been staying with Chu Tianmian for a long time, and I have developed a good habit of not saying anything.
Liang Nina didn't move her chopsticks much the whole time, she blinked her eyes, and there was a vague feeling that this was in a dream, so she kept talking.
"Senior, do you want anything else to eat?"
No, I won't want to eat Japanese food again in my life.
Su Chengyi stopped her from going to get the menu again.
"Senior drink tea."
Whenever the tea in front of him showed some signs that it was about to be cold, Liang Nina would stand up diligently and help him fill it again.
So the piping hot tea is always hot.
"Senior, you're right. I'm really happy now. ”
When Su Chengyi couldn't eat anymore, Liang Nina smiled as if she had suddenly figured it out.
"It's better than just watching seniors from a distance. It doesn't matter if the senior has someone else around him. As long as there is such an opportunity in the future, I am satisfied. ”
Then her smile disappeared as soon as she learned that the account had been settled.
Su Chengyi was a little weak by her, and she held back for a long time and said:
"Just a meal. Anyway, I still need your help with hearing aids."
Liang Nina lowered her head and was silent for a long time, shaking her head.
"It's the place I booked, and it's also the food I ordered, so there's no reason to let the seniors settle the bill."
Indeed, but is there a possibility that you ate two prawns the whole time?!
"Forget it, let's go. The repair shop is on the ground floor. ”
Su Chengyi was still thinking about how to quibble, but Liang Nina suddenly changed her head, and then took the initiative to press the elevator downward.
?
Suddenly so empathetic that people were a little caught off guard.
