After a full meal, the bottle of red wine on the table was empty, but most of the food on the plate was still left.
The lights were turned off in the house, and Gu Yan and Manla were lying head to head on the sofa by the window. Tonight, the moonlight through the window wrapped the two of them in a soft veil.
The weather is very good tonight. The slightly drunk two people can still feel the breeze blowing while lying on the sofa. At night in this industrialized city, they can no longer see the star-studded sky like when they were children. Now they can only All you see is the moonlight.
"Do you think we, who were carefree at that time, would think of everything today?" The moon outside the window is still the moon, but they are no longer the same.
"Don't you know what it means to be carefree?" Manla has never experienced what it feels like to be carefree.
"That's right, I don't know what carefree is?" Gu Yan frowned, not knowing why she suddenly thought of such a word.
Manla grew up in an orphanage. Compared with other children who grew up in orphanages, Manla did not have the sensitive and inferior character at all. She was carefree and had a positive attitude towards life, so she received funding from well-wishers. After finishing college, she did not slack off at all. Whenever she had time, she went to work part-time to gain experience. Although her education was low, she won a ticket to a large company with her rich experience, and she has been working hard ever since.
Although Gu Yan was adopted by the Wen family, how could a powerless girl get any so-called family affection from the Wen family? However, under the protection of Wen Yunfeng, she had not experienced too many storms. Compared with Man La, her personality was Gu Yan looked more shy and quiet.
Gu Yan and Manla met in high school, and by chance they became roommates.
After so many years, in Gu Yan's heart, the positive Manla is like the big sister next door, making Gu Yan feel warm.
In Manla's heart, although Gu Yan grew up in a wealthy family, she was not much better than the children in the orphanage. Since they were destined to sit together, she took care of her.
When Manla fell asleep in class because she was too tired from her part-time job, Gu Yan would copy her notes.
During lunch, Manla would bring Gu Yan a lot of delicious food to share.
During outdoor physical education classes, the two of them would hold hands and go on "adventures" together. Compared to Gu Yan, Manla knew more things. If Gu Yan didn't understand something, Manla would patiently explain it.
So, Gu Yan and Man La became roommates for three years. After filling out their application forms after the college entrance examination, Man La and Gu Yan went to different cities respectively, but their feelings for each other did not change because of time and distance. fade.
During her sophomore year, Manla had an accident and had to stay in the hospital for more than two months. She had no relatives and no one to take care of her in the hospital. What she didn't expect was that the timid Gu Yan took two months off and ran away to the hospital. She was with her in the hospital, but the reason for taking leave was that her mother had a car accident? This reason still makes Manla laugh and cry.
Something happened to the Wen family three years ago. Gu Yan resolutely chose surrogacy for Wen Yunfeng and notified Manla until she was about to give birth.
Manla was very helpless that her friend had made such a choice. When she saw Gu Yan looking at her with a pale face after giving birth, as if all her strength had been drained, she sighed, feeling sorry for this silly girl who always thinks of others. .
At that time, Manla and her colleagues were fiercely competing for a position, and the boss was very optimistic about Manla. However, confinement after childbirth was very important, and the matter of Gu Yan's surrogacy could not be leaked, so Manla had no choice but to grit her teeth and submit the leave application. Go out and take Gu Yan back to Gu Yan's hometown.
I had no idea what went wrong, but the Wen family knew about Gu Yan's surrogacy. After struggling for two years, Gu Yan finally became disillusioned with the Wen family.
"Manla, why haven't you had a boyfriend after all these years?" Gu Yan turned her head and looked at Manla's side face. Suddenly, this question came to her mind and she asked.
Manla frowned, "What is a boyfriend?" What can a boyfriend do
"Don't you feel lonely?" No one asked, no one waited eagerly.
"Are you lonely? Yes, when you told me you were going to get married, did I know what loneliness was?" When her friend was about to marry her childhood sweetheart, Manla realized what it felt like to be alone.
"Then you should also find a boyfriend." Gu Yan, who has suffered from marital trauma, still hopes that her friend can be happy. Not all women are as unfortunate as her.
"No." Manla decisively rejected her friend's proposal. After finally getting promoted, she didn't want to be distracted by the so-called love.
"No, you will end up alone like this." The more Gu Yan thought about it, the more terrible she felt. She didn't like that her friend would really end up alone in the future.
"Okay, then you find a new boyfriend, and I will follow suit." That bitchy man Wen Yunfeng treated Gu Yan like this, and Manla was also deeply afraid that Gu Yan would never recover emotionally from now on.
... ...
"Okay, if in the future there is a handsome guy who is rich and 180cm tall and really likes me and doesn't care about my past, then I will date him, and the same will happen to you." Gu Yan suddenly got up from the sofa and faced Man Man confidently. Ra said.
Manla glanced at Gu Yan in confusion. When did Gu Yan become so cunning and put forward such harsh conditions
"how?"
"Okay, okay." Looking at Gu Yan's serious face, Manla could only pray to the moon that this man would appear soon.
"But before this man showed up, I was in trouble." Manra quickly added. My friend, you have a good plan, and I have a wall ladder.
"Yes, I also want to make a lot of money, so much that I can kill Wen Yunfeng." Gu Yan lay down on the sofa again, mumbling.
"The moon is hiding in the clouds." Manla patted Gu Yan with one hand and pointed out the window with the other.
"Really?" Gu Yan Yiyan looked at the moon outside the window. The round moon was really blocked by clouds, and the sky became dark.
Because the moon was blocked, the moonlight that originally shone on the two people also disappeared, and suddenly Gu Yan became a little unhappy.
She didn't know why she suddenly hammered the sofa impatiently.
"Ha, the moon is out again." The two of them stared at the sky for a long time, and the gentle moon came out again.
"The ancients had a saying, which is to keep the clouds clear."
"See the moonlight." Gu Yan happily caught Manla's words.
Yes, don't be afraid of anything when darkness comes, because the wind will blow away the dark clouds and the moon will reappear. Thinking of this, Manla quietly held Gu Yan's hand.
"As long as you have faith, everything will be fine."
