Lai Yang's expression froze instantly, his eyeballs seemed to be filled with cement, freezing his sight.
At this moment, he felt a shadow forming behind him. Tian Jing was standing in the shadow. There was no light on her face and an indescribable coldness emanating from her body.
Lai Yang became a little anxious and shouted at the boss.
"What do you mean? I clearly said this afternoon... Do you have surveillance cameras in your store? Check it out!"
The boss played with his bracelet, glanced at him sideways, and said indifferently.
"I was wondering what you were looking up for this afternoon. You know there's no surveillance in my store, right?"
As he spoke, the boss glanced at Tian Jing again and said, "Girl, you should be careful with what this guy says. He has bad intentions."
"You fucking you..."
Lai Yang was completely enraged, but before he could finish his words, Tian Jing turned around and walked out. Lai Yang had no choice but to glare at his boss and turned around to chase after her.
Now, he finally understood it completely.
Father Tian had planned everything before he met me!
No wonder he chose this kind of small shop. The owner of this record shop must be in cahoots with him, and he was fooled!
As he ran out of the store, a cool breeze blew in his face, making him shiver.
Tian Jing was standing not far away, her curly long hair was messy in the wind, and her thin figure was stretched very long by the street lamp...
Lai Yang walked up to her and found that she was holding a mobile phone, and the screen showed that she had called a taxi.
"You, you don't believe me?" Lai Yang asked.
"That's enough for this matter. You should go back and rest early, okay?"
Her expression was as cold as when we first met.
Lai Yang felt a lump in his throat, and his heart seemed to be pinched by an invisible hand, causing him unbearable pain.
"I don't want to stop here, and I can't stop here. You know exactly what kind of person your father is! Don't you call him an old naughty boy? This is his plan, can't you see? You..."
"I don't believe he would use me as a pawn."
"Why not? For him, profit is above everything else. Have you forgotten what happened to your mother..."
"Laiyang!"
"… "
This is the first time Tian Jing has called her by her name since she started dating her.
The autumn wind blew the shout into pieces, and it drifted towards the end of the alley, out of the street, and was crushed by passing wheels and trampled by pedestrians.
What is trampled upon is not only this insignificant voice, but also the sense of trust that it contains.
The car arrived in silence and left in silence; it took away the tranquility and also took away Lai Yang's last stubbornness.
He watched the taillights of the car disappear after turning the corner, and suddenly collapsed to the ground.
A strong sense of dizziness came over him again.
He struggled, slapped his head with both hands, opened his eyes wide, opened and closed his mouth, and tried hard not to make a sound...
It was unknown how long it took for the symptoms of hypoglycemia to improve slightly. Lai Yang stood up shakily and walked out of the alley dejectedly.
In the middle of the night, the walls of the alley were illuminated by the yellow lights, casting his shadow on the wall. He was no longer a three-dimensional person, but an expressionless creature in a two-dimensional world.
As he walked, he suddenly smelled a faint scent of white magnolia. Lai Yang's heart skipped a beat and when he looked up, he found that there was a white magnolia tree planted in a small courtyard in front of him.
The branches of the trees protrude from the top of the wall, but the leaves have withered in the autumn night. Behind them is the sky as dark and deep as a mountain!
As he stopped to look at it, Lai Yang thought of last autumn. Unknowingly, he and Tian Jing had known each other for a year.
A lot of things happened this year, and many people left Shanghai.
Come and go, hurry up and look back, everything is gone...
That night, Lai Yang went to a 24-hour supermarket to buy some daily necessities, including a new set of bed sheets and quilt covers. These things were very light, but very heavy to carry back. They were so heavy that by the time he got home, the sky had already turned light.
…
Tianjing was on a flight at 1pm the next day. Before leaving, she just sent a message saying "take care of yourself" and nothing else.
When Lai Yang woke up and saw the message, two hours had passed, so he didn't reply.
…
Time is like the frequency of an electrocardiogram. The more nervous you are, the faster it beats. Two days pass in the blink of an eye.
In the past two days, Lai Yang forced himself to focus on work. At school, with the help of Hou Jun, he has successfully connected with performance clubs in nine universities.
The student leaders of these clubs were brought to the theater, and Song Wen, Yun Lu and Li Liangxin were responsible for the basic training of talk shows.
They are new to this business, and stand-up comedy may be awkward, but improvisational comedy is much better.
Lai Yang went to the theater once. At that time, Li Liangxin was teaching everyone to play "Paper Note Interaction". He had performed this show together with Li Dian, Yuan Shengda and others in front of thousands of people.
So when Lai Yang saw everyone having fun and laughing, he couldn't help but think of those people and those things.
…
It was an evening, Lai Yang came to the company alone. When he arrived, Gao Yunjian was still drinking tea and chatting with a group of people in the office.
As soon as Lai Yang entered the door, Qianying suddenly jumped out from the side and shouted "Master".
"Ah! You scared me to death."
Lai Yang took a half step back and looked at Qianying carefully.
She dressed more and more maturely, wearing high heels, pink lipstick, and her eyelashes were curled up.
Youth and sexiness coexist in the body, and the skin color becomes more rosy...
Just as he was about to speak, Gao Yunjian came out and introduced to Lai Yang that all the people in the room were media friends, and asked him to go and say hello so that they could help promote the business when it opens.
Lai Yang has never been good at this kind of polite talk, so after quickly saying hello, he left alone to chat with Qianying.
Qianying told Laiyang that she had resigned, and shyly said that she and Gao Yunjian were living together.
Hearing this, Lai Yang was actually shocked.
A bad word instantly came to my mind: captive canary.
But he couldn't speak up or talk about this kind of thing.
After all, Laiyang didn't know whether Gao Yunjian was sincere to Qianying. He couldn't just discredit the family and say they had ulterior motives just because they were rich.
What's more, he is still his partner now...
"Master, what are you thinking about?"
"Oh, nothing, just relax for a moment."
After Lai Yang finished speaking, Qian Ying smiled and said, "Come on, I know what you are thinking... Sister Sheng, right?"
"ah?"
"Master, tell me the truth. Will Sister Sheng suddenly show up on the opening day and give us a surprise?"
"… You're overthinking it. It's not true. I haven't even told them yet."
Qianying felt a little disappointed, and she said "oh" and muttered softly.
"Then you just need to tell her, and she will definitely show up, definitely... I miss her too."
"… "
These words were a bit distressing. Lai Yang walked out of the company gate and lit a cigarette to calm down.
As he spoke, he looked up at the LOGO on the door.
The new company is named "Frame Time", which means cherishing time. It was named by Lai Yang himself.
But when he looked at it carefully, Lai Yang suddenly thought of what Tian's father said...
Will there really be a day when I leave Shanghai with nothing, start all over again, and the memories of this place will be forever buried
Thinking of this, Lai Yang imagined that the company would go bankrupt in the future, and the new employees would stand on the ladder and use pliers to tear off the LOGO bit by bit.
And I seemed to still be standing here, watching that scene, but unable to do anything.
If that day really comes, Lai Yang feels that he will completely collapse, collapse...
After finishing a cigarette, Lai Yang adjusted his mood and called Li Dian.
I wanted to talk about the opening date, but when the call was connected, Li Dian's voice was extremely hoarse, like a blade cutting across an uneven wall.
Intuition told Lai Yang that something happened!
