"I remember you." Wang Chenhao didn't have the airs of a celebrity, and he still remembered Xuanxuan. Then he looked at me again: "You are her friend."
Forget it if you remember Xuanxuan, Xuanxuan asked Wang Chenhao to sign her name, but why do you remember me? I nodded, and Wang Chenhao smiled and said, "When she came to me to sign autographs that day, you were sitting there waiting for her."
My memory is so good. I nodded again. Neither Xuanxuan nor I was in the mood to talk. I accidentally met Yuan Yushan's eyes. Yuan Yushan looked at me warily, as if I wanted to rob her of something. I originally He was in a bad mood. He tilted his head provocatively and asked, "You look at me but don't say hello. Don't you mean that you are your best friend for more than 20 years?"
Yuan Yushan's face froze, and then she smiled: "It's so familiar, why do you need to say hello?"
I shrugged and let her say whatever she said. Seeing as she looked like this, she should be going to the set. If I guessed it right, Wang Chenhao was going too, because he had already confirmed his participation in the show, and a role was specially added for him. When he got downstairs I pulled Xuanxuan out of the elevator first. At this time, Liang Sheng called and asked me, "Are you in the company?"
"Well, I'll accompany Xuanxuan to find Xiang Xin." I replied.
"Don't move, just wait for me there." Liang Sheng told me. I looked at the people coming and going in the lobby on the first floor. Isn't Liang Sheng at work? Are you coming to find me? I had to wait for a while with Xuanxuan and the others. Soon, Liang Sheng came out of the elevator, along with Qin Zhuren.
Qin Zhuren hasn't met us for a long time, but he still keeps in touch with us through text messages. When he saw Xuanxuan, he looked a little regretful. We are all very familiar friends. Actually, no one felt good about this.
We went to Liang Sheng’s home. The golden retriever at home has a really good memory. Seeing that Xuanxuan and I were very enthusiastic and said that animals are cute and healing creatures. I deliberately let Xuanxuan play with the golden retriever, hoping to make her She was in a better mood, but Xuanxuan just shook her head and sat there dullly. Liang Sheng cooked a meal himself, letting me see that a successful man like him can also be a good family man.
I still don’t know why there was such a party suddenly, and Liang Sheng was the one cooking it himself. After everything was settled, I found out that Qin Zhuren was going to the United States the day after tomorrow. There was a branch of the school there and they needed an excellent makeup artist. The teacher had been there and his English was passable, so who said Qin Zhuren was too qualified? It was just designated.
This can be considered a farewell meal, because Qin Zhuren may have been away for more than half a year, or even longer. I suddenly felt a little sad about leaving. Che Min was sitting next to Xuanxuan, and I was sitting next to Liang Sheng. Qin Zhuren was as always Sitting alone, without realizing it, the situation has changed so much. In a world where people come and go, some people are always sent away and others welcomed.
I felt that my body should be able to drink a glass of wine. I poured a glass of beer to toast Qin Zhuren. Qin Zhuren looked at me, the smile in his eyes was as warm as ever. I didn’t know what that smile meant. Everyone drank. We were drunk, Xuanxuan was in a bad mood, Cha Min wanted to accompany Xuanxuan, and Liang Sheng wanted to see him off. Everyone tacitly agreed not to mention Chu Jin, as if they had removed this person from our small circle. I know Liang Sheng and Qin Zhuren both wanted to take into account my and Xuanxuan's feelings.
Liang Sheng went to the bathroom. I didn't drink much, so I was very awake. Xuanxuan and Che Min were already sleeping on the sofa. It was already eight o'clock in the evening. The lights outside were bright and the city was lonely and prosperous at night. Qin Zhuren was still While pouring the wine, he suddenly called me: "Shen Yan."
"Huh?" I looked at him doubtfully. His eyes were very bright. I had never seen Qin Zhuren's eyes so shining. My heart suddenly beat a few times inexplicably, and I had a premonition.
Qin Zhuren smiled: "I'm happy for you. I heard that your parents have relaxed a little."
I nodded and looked in the direction of the bathroom. Liang Sheng hadn't come out yet. Qin Zhuren raised a glass of wine to toast me: "Shen Yan, for your happiness, I tried my best to disguise myself. Now I have to leave, maybe We have been apart for more than half a year, or even three to five years. I hope that the next time I come back is to attend your wedding with Liang Sheng."
Pretend... I pondered this word blankly. Of course I understood what it meant. The first time I heard Qin Zhuren explain his feelings was the conversation between him and Liang Sheng after we were all drunk. I thought our relationship would change after this. As good friends, his feelings for me would disappear, but suddenly, he told me that he had been pretending for a long time, and before leaving, he no longer had to pretend, because he was leaving.
Qin Zhuren drank all the wine in his glass. I didn't know what to say. He smiled and said, "I'll tell Liang Sheng later. I'm going back first to prepare things. I have to go to school tomorrow to sort out materials. "
Qin Zhuren stood up as he spoke. He didn't seem to be drunk at all. He was still gentle and humble: "Goodbye, Ana Shen."
Therefore, Qin Zhuren will also be a special existence in my life. He is the only person who likes me but never bothers me from the beginning to the end. In the end, he bid me farewell quietly. Everything is simple but unforgettable. When Liang Sheng came out, Qin Zhuren had already left. Liang Sheng asked me where Qin Zhuren had gone. I was a little distracted: "He said he went back to pack his things first."
Liang Sheng's shirt had two buttons unbuttoned, and it seemed a little warm. He also drank a lot of wine, but there was still no blush on his face. He sat next to me, and after taking a breath, he said: "Chu Jinhe Xiang Xin’s engagement date has been changed.”
"Changed?" I asked in surprise: "Isn't it the Mid-Autumn Festival? Next month."
"It's the Chinese Valentine's Day in four days." Liang Sheng took a sip of red wine. He has a lot of good wine in his house. He can drink it at every party. The red wine exudes a mellow aroma. I swallowed my saliva, feeling a little helpless. Di responded: "Really? It should be mentioned by Xiang Xin."
Liang Sheng's Adam's apple moved: "It's Chu Jin."
I was shocked. Chu Jin really refreshed my outlook on life again and again. Is it true that I no longer feel any pain for Xuanxuan? It seemed that all his decisions no longer cared whether Xuanxuan was sad or not. At this moment, Xuanxuan, who was sleeping on the sofa, suddenly turned over. She was originally facing our faces, facing the inside of the sofa.
Liang Sheng and I looked at each other. She... seemed to be awake.
I was a little flustered. If Xuanxuan had been awake, then not only did she know about Chu Jin, but also what Qin Zhuren said to me just now, did she also hear it? I'm not afraid that Xuanxuan will know these things, but I'm afraid that she will misunderstand that Qin Zhuren and I are really ambiguous.
I felt that the air conditioner was a little cold, so I went to the bedroom to find two small quilts and covered Xuanxuan and Che Min with one bed each. After covering them, I walked to the bay window, climbed up, opened the curtains and looked at the stairs. After getting off the busy street, Liang Sheng also climbed up. He had long legs, so he could only sit there with his legs bent. He handed me a glass of red wine: "Drink a little."
The two of us huddled together and looked at the night view outside. The location of Liang Sheng's house is very good. This area is not as lively as the city center, but it is also a central business district. As far as the eye can see, there are high-rise buildings. Probably successful people always gather together. Bar.
"Will you go to Chu Jin's engagement?" I took a sip of red wine, it was very fragrant.
"Yes." Liang Sheng replied. He looked out the window at the night sky. His slightly raised profile was impeccably delicate. His skin really didn't have any dead spots. It felt a little more delicate than a woman's, but he didn't feel like a girl.
I'm a little disappointed. Liang Sheng and Chu Jin have known each other for so many years. It's natural for them to attend the engagement. I understand. I just feel that I don't like Liang Sheng to contact Chu Jin like this, but my idea is too extreme. Liang Sheng is an adult man and has his own judgment and ability. He doesn't need me to classify his friends, but I don't find it strange that this kind of selfish desire for control occasionally appears.
The atmosphere became quiet, and I rested my head on Liang Sheng's shoulder. I wished this moment could stay forever. I put the red wine down and whispered to Liang Sheng, "I want to kiss you."
"I just want it too." I just turned my head, Liang Sheng's words had just finished, and their moist lips with the scent of red wine touched each other. I closed my eyes and cherished this moment. Xuanxuan and Chu Jin's incident touched me deeply. We all thought we would be together at first, but then we were not together after all. So when we are together, we should cherish it and don't waste every second.
