Long Street - Chapter 21
Xiang Yu was not prepared to agree to the matter of keeping the year old together, and Jin Fubai did not mention it again.
At the checkout, Jin Fubai happily charged half of the meal she had paid him, thinking that the table fight on New Year’s Eve was over.
After nine o’clock in the evening, a bright moon hung in the night sky, and there were occasional fireworks on the horizon, which exploded in clusters.
When helping her raise the curtain, Jin Fubai naturally turned his head and asked her: “Do you know the’Mengshe’?”
“what?”
Jin Fubai’s “Dream Club” is a place similar to a theme bed and breakfast in the suburbs.
Not everyone has a home to celebrate the New Year. The boss of “Dream Club” makes an announcement on the Internet every year, welcoming people who spend the New Year alone in the Imperial City to have fun together.
Xiang Yu didn’t expect Jin Fubai to say that Shou Sui was so pure. It sounds like they are not the only two of them.
According to her understanding, he is not a person who is good at “purity”. What he wants is always obvious. I don’t know why he changed his **** today?
She is not an indecisive person. When he said that he would go to the “Dream Club” to keep the years old, Xiang Yu nodded and said, okay.
It’s okay to join in the fun, or she will use the Spring Festival Gala as BGM when she goes home, lying on the sofa to play snakes.
Before going to “Mengshe”, Jin Fubai drove to Li Qi’s hotel.
The car stopped downstairs. He said he would go back to the suite to get something, and he casually agreed to Yu, saying that I would be waiting for you in the car.
Jin Fubai smiled: “You can follow me up.”
Maybe it’s because he has a pair of amorous eyes, saying such things always makes people want to get crooked.
“……I’m not going.”
Within a few minutes, Jin Fubai took a thick white blanket down, said nothing, and only handed it to Xiang Yu who was sitting in the passenger seat.
The blanket was pressed heavily on her, hugged taro subconsciously, and smelled the faint fragrance on it.
On the way to the suburbs, the car drove more and more remotely. When crossing the winding highway, a layer of night fog formed in the woods beside the road, and the speed of the car also slowed down.
Xiang Yu sat quietly in the car, inexplicably thinking of the raccoon city in “Resident Evil”, surrounded by mountains on three sides and protected. Umbrella company spent huge sums of money to build it very modern.
Raccoon City is the place where all nightmares in “Resident Evil” begin.
Thinking of this at such a moment, there is always a feeling of being foreshadowed.
It seems that this trip is difficult to understand.
The journey was a long time, the light in the car was dim, and when she was awakened by Jin Fubai, she had arrived at her destination.
This place was originally an old house in the suburbs, because it is close to a tourist area, so many homestays are used.
Every house is full of lanterns and bright lights, inexplicably reminiscent of the girl named Chihiro in Hayao Miyazaki’s animation when she was a child, inadvertently breaking into the place where the deity lives.
The night scene in the animation is similar to the foreground of the eyes.
Facing the night, Xiang Yu was stunned for a while, then turned his head to look at Jin Fubai.
He said, “Take the blanket with you. It’s useful.”
“Mengshe” is very much like a multi-storey single-family villa, but in fact there are many such houses in the outskirts of the village, spacious and airy.
Unlike the small houses like the “pigeon nests” in the urban area, every inch of the land is worth a lot of money, and there are people who have sharpened their heads to buy.
There are bright lights everywhere, and lonely people who are “homeless” everywhere.
A bonfire burned on the top floor, which really meant “to stay up for the rest of the year and wait for tomorrow”.
Someone took a bottle and was in a daze in the excitement;
Someone sang their own changed tune Happy New Year with a guitar;
Some people still work with computers on New Year’s Eve.
Someone urged parents to pay attention to their health while talking on the phone with tears;
Some people have a gentle look of depression towards Yue alone;
Some people take the initiative to talk with others to get a temporary excitement.
Xiang Yu finally knew why Jin Fubai had such a thick blanket. Although the roof top was burning with a bonfire, and the suburban night wind was heavy, it was still a bit cold.
She was wrapped in a blanket to keep out the cold.
In fact, Jin Fubai is always unpredictable tonight.
After arriving at the “Dream Club”, he stopped showing that kind of “excessive care” behavior, instead sitting on the sofa next to her, looking a little silent.
It’s like his “diligence” is really just to abduct her here to keep her years old.
The smell of burning wood hides in the wind and gently brushes his cheeks, singing and laughing to cover up how lost, and hiding in the bustle can pretend to be happy.
A conversation came downstairs—
“Madame, is there only hot chocolate for the hot drink? Do you have coffee?”
“I see you like coffee.”
“Why don’t you even have coffee?”
“Go out and turn right there is a convenience store. Buy it yourself.”
In such a warm “noisy”, Xiang Yu huddled in the blanket and looked at Jin Fubai’s profile.
This person really doesn’t like to wear down jackets. He is always a cashmere coat. Today it is off-white. Sitting in the hustle and bustle is very conspicuous.
He quietly inserted agarwood sticks into the tobacco, lit the smoke, looked at the waning moon in the night sky, and exhaled some smoke.
I don’t know what he was thinking of at this moment.
The child of the owner of “Mengshe” is only 3 or 4 years old. He is a beautiful little boy, holding a large piece of chocolate in both hands and chewing on his face.
The little boy walked by Jin Fubai’s side, did not know why he could not stand still, he staggered and fell, grabbed the hem of his coat, and then knelt on the ground.
When Jin Fubai supported him, the little boy still squeezed his hands full of chocolate.
Xiang Yu looked at Jin Fubai from the side, thinking that he would feel a little unhappy after being rubbed against the traces of melted chocolate.
As a result, the man smiled and picked up the little boy, and teased him: “Eating so many sweets, are you afraid of teeth bugs?”
Jin Fubai hugged the little boy and walked downstairs, staring at him in the direction of Yu, until he disappeared from the stairs.
How can it be possible to feel like water?
She sat next to him, and she was also moved.
Xiang Yu looked at his right hand, and there was a scab near the tiger’s mouth, which was cut by the can.
In fact, she came out with him this time, don’t say anything lonely and unbearable, she was a moment of fascination, and wanted to follow her heart on New Year’s Eve.
The phone rang at this time, you don’t need to look at it to know who it is.
Xiang Yu clicked on the voice he had just received, and Tang Yuchi’s voice came out: “I said I seem to have forgotten something. The birthday gift I bought for you is still in my down jacket pocket, and I forgot to wish you a happy birthday. Am I looking for you tomorrow? Give you a birthday present, guess what?”
She smiled silently, holding the phone to her mouth: “It’s Sonnyangel again?”
I don’t know what Tang Yuchi’s aesthetic is. Ever since I discovered this bare-bottomed mini doll blind box abroad, I have to give her several boxes of this stuff every year for Yu’s birthday.
Three-inch gadgets, plus expensive international shipping costs, cost a hundred yuan apiece, which is of no use. Instead, she chooses taro by herself. She would rather use the money to charge her phone bill, which is practical.
And last year was very mournful. Even after I opened 5 boxes, 4 of them were the same.
Tang Yuchi probably thought of this too, and laughed for 13 seconds.
In the next voice, the words were still smiling: “Fortunately, I remembered it. Your birthday is only a few minutes away. Happy birthday.”
Xiang Yu returned a very elderly emoticon package, big flowers blooming, with the text “Thank you for having you”. Then put the phone back in the pocket.
There was a beautiful hand in front of him, holding a cup of hot chocolate exuding the fragrant cocoa flavour.
Jin Fubai didn’t know when to come back, and passed the hot chocolate into her hands: “Today’s birthday?”
“Ok.”
Xiang Yu held the warm wall of the cup and smiled, “My birthday is young.”
Lunar New Year’s Eve is indeed too small.
Jin Fubai didn’t say anything, and went to find the little boy just now.
The little boy now has no chocolate in his hand, and is playing with fireworks in his hand.
Seeing him squatting in front of the little boy, Xiang Yu didn’t know what he said, the little boy shook his head firmly.
The rejected Jin Fubai smiled suddenly, pulled up the hem of his coat, and pointed to the chocolate handprint on it.
The little boy bit his thumb and froze for a while, very reluctantly, he split out one of the unlit fireworks in his hand and handed it to Jin Fubai’s hand.
Opened his eyes at Yu Yu.
He actually threatened the child with a fairy stick?
Jin Fubai’s tall figure, holding a small “fairy stick” from a child in his hand, is really funny.
But Xiang Yu couldn’t laugh at all. She knew what he was doing to get the fireworks in hand, and she couldn’t help but move.
Jin Fubai squatted in front of her, took out a lighter and lit the “fairy stick”.
Mars burst out like a star, like a dazzling flower between his fingers.
He said: “Happy birthday, make a wish, and I will help you finish it.”
Xiang Yu looked at Jin Fubai, his affectionate eyes were dazzled by the fireworks, and some warmth that did not belong to him was reflected in his eyes.
I don’t know if it was an illusion. At this moment, it made people feel inexplicably that when he looked at her and asked her to make a wish, he was looking forward to it.
What is he expecting?
Xiang Yu thought soberly, if a relationship needs to be sustained by making a wish, it might as well not be.
The person sitting by the campfire and playing the guitar changed a song, which was Eason’s “White Rose”, in Cantonese.
Xiang Yu is more familiar with the Chinese version of “Red Rose”, which is written in the same tune, and has swept the entire circle of peers in high school.
Xiang Yu shook his head: “I have no wish to promise.”
“Then just blow it.”
Can’t tell whether Jin Fubai was disappointed when he said this.
Xiang Yu closed her eyes and blew, hearing Jin Fubai’s chuckle, she opened her eyes and ran into his smiling eyes.
In front of the fireworks that were still burning, she was taken aback for a moment and then laughed.
The fireworks can’t be blown out, and they are so stupid to make a wish to others.
The two laughed together until the fireworks went out. Jin Fubai glanced at the time and lit his lighter: “Come over.”
Everyone around is counting down, there are 15 seconds to 12 o’clock.
This day is about to pass, whether it’s New Year’s Eve or her birthday.
Xiang Yu didn’t know why he insisted on wanting her to make a wish, so he quickly said, “Since you gave me the opportunity to make a wish, I wish you happy every day.”
After speaking, she closed her eyes and blown out the extinguisher.
The people around screamed happily and yelled the countdown to the new year—
“Three! Two! One! Happy New Year!”
Regardless of whether the past year has gone well or not, at this moment everyone truly believes that there will be a new year in the new year.
Jin Fubai was surprised at Xiang Yu’s wish, but Xiang Yu had already integrated into the crowd and shouted to him in the same happy voice: “Jin Fubai, Happy New Year.”
She stretched her eyebrows and her hair floated in the evening breeze.
The smile is more brilliant than the sky full of fireworks.
She is young, she is full of vigor, and she is likable.
It is too easy to be remembered in the heart.
There will be many people like this girl who want to be with her.
Jin Fubai was silent for a moment in the hustle and bustle before he said, “Happy New Year.”
