Vol 2 Chapter 50 a dream
After Le Yao left, I sat alone facing the wall for a long time. I seemed to see loneliness turning into a gust of wind and blowing past me. I lit the lighter, watched the flame jump in the wind, and then extinguished, and so on. After a few times, the loneliness in my heart seemed to be burned away, and then there was a strange emotion, neither good nor bad, but it trapped my body and made me not want to leave here immediately. Chasing the lights of the city…
A high-speed bullet train whizzed by, and suddenly there were people in this endless wilderness. Unfortunately, Le Yao didn’t see this scene, but I didn’t dare to regard this train that passed by for a long time as this night A gift for me, because I saw those people in the carriage traveling through the journey, who were more lonely than me, at least behind me was my hometown, but they left their hometown because of this journey.
…
Since Mi Cai officially became the executive president of New Green Energy, her exposure rate has increased significantly, so I saw the news about her again this night after returning home. This time, she represented the group’s vertical acquisition of a downstream company to create energy-saving products. A large-scale enterprise mainly engaged in electrical appliances, this acquisition is called a textbook-like classic case by the industry, and it is agreed that after the acquisition of this enterprise, New Green Energy will have a higher market share in technology and energy. New breakthroughs will lead the development of this industry and become a veritable energy giant!
I lit a cigarette, put down the tablet computer in my hand, and dreamed about Mi Cai’s current appearance. I must have put myself into the heavy work again. The weight she gained during the tour should return to normal. It’s a pity that this time the acquisition of her on behalf of the group is just a written report, and the accompanying pictures are only photos she used, otherwise I could really take this opportunity to see what she looks like now.
I looked at the ceiling, took a deep breath, and was extremely eager to make another breakthrough in my career, because the career I am doing at this moment is nothing compared to Mi Cai, how can I lose to my own in the distance? What about women?
That’s right, at this time, I have already regarded Mi Cai as my competitor in my career. I may not have that much energy to get involved in the energy industry, but at least I can’t be worse than her. In this way, when she comes back to find me On that day, we will no longer have to worry about the difference in status. At that time, I don’t want to call her Mr. Mi, and I don’t want her to call me Mr. Zhao. We can leave wealth behind and hold hands together, or At dusk, or in the morning, go for a walk on that Mochou Road!
The next day, in this city in winter, it was rare to see the blue jewel-like sky. I was excited, put on the long-lost sports equipment and ran around the familiar moat, and then sat in the transformed city. In the small fitness plaza, I chatted with Mr. Li about the pigeons he raised and the cat I gave him last time. Later, we went to the newly opened snack bar opposite and had a bowl of Spicy soup, I ate a few rice cakes, of course, I was the one who paid the bill in the end, because old man Li is not a very generous person, but this does not affect me coming here to chat with him whenever I have time, because I am very happy I like the world of the elderly. Their wealth and feelings have been fixed, and there will be no more changes. Regardless of life and death, their sense of security in life is what we young people lack most, so I envy him very much. .
After breakfast, old man Li and I walked to the square next to the moat. Today is my rare rest day. I don’t want to go anywhere. I just want to enjoy a morning with blue sky and sunshine here.
The aunts who helped me take care of the guitar gave me back the guitar that Mi Cai used to use, and took the opportunity to encourage me to sing for them. This made me tend to become a friend of women, but I didn’t care at all. , smiled and asked them: “What song do you want to listen to, aunts?…”
One of the aunts leading the dance replied kindly: “Sing what you want this time, our group of aunts have forced you to sing the square song for so long…you should be allowed to sing freely Right now….Sing well, kid! Sing well, we will all listen to you singing pop songs from now on!”
I pretended to be polite and replied: “Auntie, this is your place, you just have to be happy!… But don’t say how you forced me, even if you really forced me, I don’t dare to be emotional, after all, I still want to come here to sit around in the future!”
The lead dancer covered her mouth and smiled, then patted me on the shoulder and said, “Naughty! Talk bad about us!”
I smiled with my aunt, then closed my eyes and thought carefully about what song to sing, because aunts are usually too domineering, so such a chance to choose to sing by myself is really rare. After a while, I finally dialed This time I didn’t want to sing ballads or rock. I sang a classic pop song “Dream”. As for why I sang this song, I don’t know why. Because of inertia, because I have sung this song “A Dream” countless times here, I remember that Jian Wei really liked listening to it at that time, and of course I also liked it!
“We all made promises to each other because of loneliness, we were all tired of life because of torture, it’s just such a day, the same way, how long will it take, we changed our attitude and accepted each other, we wronged ourselves to fulfill someone’s dream, It’s just that it doesn’t matter how much is left in such a day. I often think of the tenderness of the past. It keeps me from being cold at night. You say that the beauty of a person is serious. It is fate that two people can be together. I knew it was In this way, it’s like a dream, why should I put all my love in the same place, I can forgive your arrogance, the arrogance is that I can’t forget it by myself, I knew it was like this, it’s like a dream, why should I put all my tears Locked in my own eye sockets, make you go crazy, make you go crazy, make you strong without me, let me heal without you…”
I sang with my eyes closed throughout the whole process, because the lyrics here seem to be talking about the past between Jian Wei and me. After we separated, she was strong without me, and I healed without her. Come on, the love that created countless emotions for us was really just a dream in the morning when we were not sober, but in the dream, we made each other bloody, and then we each suffered for many years …but who is to blame?
Only blame each other for being too young to find the most correct way to deal with love!
When I opened my eyes again, I saw Jian Wei wearing a one-piece cap and a mask. She was standing beside me, as if she had heard me sing the song the whole time…
I hurriedly wiped off the dust on my pants, stood up from the ground, and then looked at her in a daze, ever since she lost part of her memory, I never thought she would come to this place again…. ..
She took off the mask as if nothing had happened, put down the one-piece cap, straightened her hair on the sideburns and said to me: “So you can play the guitar and sing well!”
I nodded, suppressed my nervousness and asked her, “Why are you here?”
She looked up at the sky and replied: “The air is good today, so I wanted to go out for a walk, and I came here before I knew it… However, the surrounding environment seems to have been transformed, I remember this There used to be no such fitness plaza in the river section.”
I don’t know why, after finding out that Jian Wei’s memory is still missing, I felt a little relieved in my heart. I finally said to her: “This fitness plaza was built in the first half of this year. Since I have this plaza, I come here for a walk and exercise The number of people has increased, and it was quite deserted before!”
“Hehe…” Jian Wei smiled, and then turned around and leaned on the guardrail by the river. She looked at the opposite bank that had not been renovated, where there were still many tall buildings, full of the atmosphere of a modern city.
I put the guitar into the piano case, carried it on my back, and then stood beside her, facing the breeze blowing from the other side of the river. In my memory, it seems that the winter in Suzhou has never been so gentle.
“Zhaoyang, can you tell me what it’s like to like someone?”
I thought about it and replied: “Like someone, sometimes even waiting for him or her is a kind of happiness!”
She finally turned her head to look at me, but I couldn’t meet her eyes. I just looked at the river in front of me and Jianwei. At that time, I jumped to save the guitar she gave me But what she saved was my life, and at this moment, the surface of the river seemed to be so calm that it had never experienced such a thrilling thing.
I lit a cigarette, and Jian Wei put on the mask again, she hated the smell of smoke from me, so the topic ended like this, we fell into silence, and I didn’t because of this Silent and uncomfortable, because in Jian Wei’s eyes, I am at most a friend who was raped by strangers, and our past is just a dream that she inadvertently forgets to the present, so neither of us It is necessary to face each other with a heavy burden as before.
After a while, Jian Wei didn’t say goodbye to me, and walked along the road on the embankment in the direction of her return. When she was about to disappear, a taxi stopped on the river bank, and then Zishi opened the car door, walked from the road above to the small road by the river embankment, and hurriedly followed Jian Wei’s footsteps…
They were pulling farther and farther away, and finally they seemed to be holding hands, but they didn’t seem to be holding hands… I was too far away from them, and I couldn’t see it clearly!
It seems that I had a dream in a trance, and my morning is over! …
…
In the afternoon, I went to that Mochou Road in Nanjing again. I wanted to see the cat with very small ears that I raised in “Mochou Coffee Shop”. Why should I raise this cat?
It was just because the cat dealer told me that it would take about two years for a cat of this breed to fully grow up. This is the experience I have summed up in the year since Mi Cai left.
I pushed open the door of “Mochou Coffee Shop” in the gentle afternoon sun, and shouted: “Xiaodao (the name I gave the cat), Xiaodao, your brother is here, why don’t you hurry up and pick him up.”
Immediately afterwards, a gray kitten about the length of chopsticks huddled in the corner under the bar and “meowed” twice. I went over and picked it up, complaining: “You are sorry for giving you such a tough name. The last time you came, you **** hid next to the flower pot and peed, this time you shivered under the bar…Can’t you welcome your brother in a brave way?”
The waiters were amused by me, and they all covered their mouths and laughed, but I didn’t care about it at all. I held the knife in my arms and looked at it several times. It really grew very slowly, and I didn’t notice it at all Time showed signs of growing up, so I put it back under the bar counter full of frustration and continued to shake…
This afternoon, I stayed in the “Mochou Coffee Shop” and I have not been idle. I made a few simple-style flower stands with idle wood. It is full of various flowers.
The winter dusk came around four o’clock. After I was busy, I sat near the window with a knife in my hand, enjoying a cup of coffee. I will go back to Suzhou later, but I can’t bear to part with it. Everything in this coffee shop, especially the rainbow-shaped window, and the carefree experience here, sometimes I also think: If I am not dragged down by worldly fame and fortune, I really hope so Staying in this Mochou coffee shop, it seems like a dream waiting for Mi Cai to return.
While drinking coffee, I saw an entertainment news about Le Yao. Her manager took her to issue a statement. From now on, she will follow her father’s surname and change her name to Xiao Yao. From now on, she will If you have two children with Cao Jinfei, one will follow her surname Xiao, and the other will naturally be Cao Jinfei with the surname Cao…
After this statement was released, it immediately aroused heated discussions among the public. They were all guessing what happened in Le Yao’s past. Why did she take her mother’s surname halfway through, and now she takes her father’s surname? …However, this kind of discussion is completely meaningless to us insiders. If Le Yao was not too persistent, she should have taken her father’s surname a few years ago, so why bother to drift to Suzhou , After those years full of hard work, I still clearly remember: At that time, she was really just a little model who often had no jobs to pick up!
Just when I was about to lock the screen of my phone, I accidentally saw another piece of side news, and the protagonist turned out to be Fangyuan, who has always been cautious and conservative. The news revealed that he and a female star from Chongqing were suspected of having an improper affair. In the relationship between men and women, someone once saw two people going in and out together in a luxurious hotel in Macau!
