C27 Don't Let Me See You in Suzhou

The next morning, I left Heng Dien Town and returned to Suzhou in the afternoon. I immediately went to the company and reported the situation to the manager, Chen Jingming. The matter of the promotional poster for the GUCI was settled with Le Yao's promise to me.

In the evening after work, I sat in my office for a long time and did not leave. I left the house that I had stayed in for more than two years. The panic that I had nowhere to go kept bothering me.

Actually, getting used to is really a very scary thing. My pain now completely stemmed from getting used to it. I got used to the love that Jian Wei had once given me. I got used to the warmth and comfort that the house had once given me.

I don't really understand what happened all these years. Why do I always lose precious things in my life, but my gains are so little?

Maybe I know the answer, but I'm not willing to admit it. So I comforted myself: Now I finally see some hope in my work, and the progress in my work will definitely make life easier in the future. So pack up and prepare for a new life!

After leaving the company, I didn't go to find a new house. I decided to stay at Luo Ben's place for the time being. At least at night, two men who are equally lonely and frustrated can chat about music and this nonsense life.

...

Walking alone on the streets, I was bored to death. Thus, I decided to go to the bar to find Luo Ben and have a few more drinks.

After saying that I would leave, I immediately hailed a taxi and headed towards the bar where Luo Ben was singing.

When I arrived at the bar, I saw that it was still the familiar red and green lights. There was still a crowd of people whose waists were shaking. I just found a relatively quiet corner and sat down.

Luo Ben carried a few bottles of beer and came to my side. He sat opposite me and passed me another bottle of beer. He said, "I thought you were cut off from this place. Why are you here again?"

I looked around and joked, "I'm here to take a breath of debauchery. I've been living a little too happily recently."

Luo Ben took the bottle and clinked it with me. He smiled and said, "You're just used to living a hard life. What's wrong with living a little more proudly?"

I also smiled. I raised the bottle and said, "This is the realm of life. Little comrade, you still have to slowly understand... drink!"

Luo Ben smiled and shrugged. He followed me and took a sip. He then asked, "You went to Heng Dien Town to find Le Yao yesterday, right?"

"I hid it so well. How did you know?" I asked in surprise.

"I chatted with Le Yao on WeChat today. She said you went."

"Actually, I went to Heng Dien Town because of work. Didn't GUCI set up a special cabinet in our department store? If I didn't ask Le Yao to make a promotional poster for their products, I would have been the one to do the hard work. " As I spoke, I drank another mouthful of beer.

"No wonder Le Yao said that she was happy for nothing. Maybe she really thought that you went to find her at the beginning."

"Even if you specifically went to find her, it would still be the weekend."

Luo Ben nodded and did not ask any more questions. They drank another bottle of beer and chatted for a while. Luo Ben left. It was about time for him to perform on the stage.

More and more people came to the bar to find entertainment. I was still sitting in the corner. Drinking mouthful by mouthful, I was in a trance. The night I was with Le Yao seemed to appear in my mind like nothing. I felt a little sad because of it. This kind of sadness puzzled me. But it also existed in reality.

On the stage, Luo Ben and another female singer were singing the song he wrote himself. The audience applauded intermittently, and my attention was finally attracted. Following the rhythm of the music, I snapped my fingers.

Luo Ben was actually a very talented folk song singer. It was just that he had too much moral integrity. He was not willing to write some popular commercial songs, nor was he willing to participate in a talent show that was on the streets. That was why he had been quietly singing in the bar all these years, living a quiet life. However, he didn't seem to care about this kind of suffering. He often said, You don't have to be famous when playing music, but you have to have the determination in your heart.

It's just that after being with him for so many years, I don't know what his persistence is, but it doesn't affect me from admiring him.

...

In the midst of the music, my phone vibrated in my pocket. I continued to snap my fingers at the rhythm. I took out my phone from my pocket and answered the call without looking at the number.

It was Faang Yuan. He seemed to have heard the noise in the bar. He said to me, "Zhao Yang, are you fooling around in the bar again?"

"Have a good honeymoon. Don't worry about me." As I spoke, I stood up from my seat and followed the rhythm of the music to sway along with the crowd.

"Which bar are you at? I'll go look for you."

"Didn't you go to Sanya with Yem Yan?" I asked doubtfully.

"Sanya has been raining heavily these few days. We'll go there in a few days."

"We'll go there in a few days. Is your wedding vacation enough?"

"It won't be able to last more than a few days. It's enough... Kid, don't talk nonsense. Hurry up and tell me which bar you're at. "

"Su He Bar, you come, I'll treat you to a drink."

"Then you have to prepare more silver. Yem Yan, go too. Jian Wei, Xiang Chen."

When I heard Jian Wei and Xiang Chen's names, my heart trembled. After being stunned for a long time, I opened my mouth and scolded, "Are you f * cking stupid when you get married? Why did you bring the two of them here?"

"What are you so excited about? The five of us haven't been together for a few years, right? Besides, don't you have a girlfriend? If you call her out to have a gathering, then don't think about those messy things."

"Who did you hear that I have a girlfriend?"

"Jian Wei, if you don't have a girlfriend, I can't possibly bring Jian Wei and Xiang Chen to make you unhappy, right? I have a sense of propriety!"

I just remembered that on the day Faang Yuan got married, I lied in front of Jian Wei that Mi Cai was my girlfriend. I didn't expect this lie to be like a rock that I lifted up. It fiercely smashed towards my foot, and I couldn't even dodge it.

Stunned, Faang Yuan said to me, "Actually, it was Xiang Chen who wanted to meet you. We are all brothers who came from university. " Don't! " Because those matters of relationship were not very pleasant... Now that everyone is in pairs, isn't it good to get together?"

I don't know what to say, so I just stayed silent.

Faang Yuan reminded me again and said, "Remember to invite your girlfriend out. I heard Jian Wei say that she is ridiculously beautiful. To be able to make Jian Wei think so, Yem Yan and I really want to broaden our horizons!"

Just as I was about to say something, Faang Yuan had already hung up the phone. Hearing the beeping sound from the phone, I was instantly dumbfounded!

...

The bar was still noisy, but I was restless. Faang Yuan had already said what he wanted to say. I can't escape either. The bad thing about this is that I said that Mi Cai was my girlfriend without caring about the consequences that day. But at that time, I really was like a drowning person who desperately needed a life-saving straw. So I can quite understand what I did at that time, but what should I do now?

After being lost in thought for a long time, I finally decided to call Mi Cai. If she still had a little bit of loyalty, she would definitely pull out her knife to help.

Taking out the phone, I found Mi Cai's number, but I couldn't dial it for a long time. I still remember that when we moved out the day before yesterday, we had a fight because we didn't buy any bug powder. Then she forced me to return the money, and I awkwardly left that guitar behind. I almost ran away. Isn't it too unmanly to call her at this time?

"I don't care. Anyway, I'm just a scum in her eyes. What's there to talk about?"

I muttered. Then, with the reputation of being a scumbag, I plucked up my courage and pressed the dial button.

Hearing the call notification, I was actually a little nervous. There was a reason why I was nervous. I was worried that Mi Cai would mock me for my lack of moral integrity and was even more worried that she would not be willing to help the Pugilistic World.

After a moment, the call was picked up. I heard Mi Cai's stern voice once again, "Why did you call me?"

"Help in the Pugilistic World."

"The Jianghu is in emergency? Are you prepared to jump into the river and jump into the lake again?"

I was almost choked to death by Mi Cai. After a while, I said, "This time, I am not jumping into the river. Do you still remember the last time at my friend's wedding, I told a woman that you are my girlfriend?"

" You still have the nerve to bring this up? "

I immediately followed Mi Cai's words and sighed, "Sigh ~ ~! Isn't this the only thing that caused me trouble? My friends all said that they wanted to meet you. Now that they are on the way here, quickly come to Su He Bar to save me."

"Even Jesus can't save a person like you!"

"Don't insult me. It is really urgent. If you don't come, I really won't be able to show my face today!"

"Who cares about you!"

"I'm begging you, alright?" I said anxiously as if I had no choice but to lower my head under the roof.

Mi Cai was unmoved and replied, "You should pray for your own good fortune."

I was furious. "You destroyed the reincarnation of Abbess Jue! Do you have any loyalty to the underworld... F * ck, don't let me see you in the Suzhou in the future... "

The phone was suddenly hung up. Hearing the beeping sound of the phone being hung up, I was completely dumbfounded!
