Long Street - Chapter 42
In the eyes of other people, it seems that after a drunk of sake, Xiang Yu has become more calm.
Occasionally Tang Yuchi talked about Jin Fubai intentionally or unintentionally, and she also spoke freely.
A few days later, Xiang Yu and Tang Yuchi followed Tang’s father and Tang’s mother to enjoy cherry blossoms in other provinces.
It’s already night at the destination, so I can only find a store to stay.
When he woke up early, Tang Yuchi wiped the drops of water on his face with a towel, and asked, “Xiang Yu, what unhappy dreams did you have last night? Come on, say it to make me happy.”
“me?”
Xiang Yu squatted in front of the suitcase, took out his toiletry bag and electric toothbrush, turned his head and said, “I dreamed that Jin Fubai was in a dream, what’s wrong?”
Tang Yuchi’s towel was draped around his neck, and he was silent for a long time: “You seemed terribly uncomfortable in your dream last night. Your godmother got up to look at you in the middle of the night and said that your brows were frowned.”
“It’s me instead of you, don’t you cry? And I didn’t notice it myself, what did you say? I thought I had a sweet dream.”
“Deceive yourself and others.”
“I’m happy, can you manage it?”
This conversation is here for her, forget it.
But Tang Yuchi was thoughtful all the way to the cherry blossoms.
Mother Tang urged him and asked when he would find her a lovely daughter-in-law.
Tang Yuchi ran to her and asked her, “Xiang Yu, you can just find a man who you like to get married. You are so hard. Anyway, find someone to accompany you to help you share the unhappiness in life.”
This year, the cherry blossoms are very prosperous. There is a cherry blossom-shaped ice cream in the scenic spot. Many girls are standing under the cherry tree and holding the ice cream to take pictures.
It coincides with Gaoyue, and the wind blows in late spring, and the petals are like snow, rustling falling.
There were laughter in the wind, and crowds under the trees.
The sweet scent of ice cream came, but some of the longings in my heart lasted for a long time, and were more leisurely than this warm breeze.
Xiang Yu took back his gaze falling on the ice cream stall and shook his head in the bright sunshine.
The diamond stud earrings were broken into the sunlight, and shone in fine pieces.
She just smiled: “What kind of marriage? Will there be a man who will allow me to wear the ring that Jin Fubai gave me after marrying me, and then think about the old lover a hundred times a day?”
“A hundred times? Is that exaggeration?”
“Maybe,” Xiang Yu said with a smile.
“Taro, Yuchi, do you want ice cream, let your godfather buy it for you?”
Mother Tang was wearing a cheongsam, smiling and beckoning to them, “I see those young children who took pictures with ice cream.”
Tang Yuchi bumped his elbow into the taro: “Ice cream, do you want to eat it? Didn’t you like to eat these cold ones the most? The one sold in the small supermarket of high school, four circles? Or eight circles? I think you can eat it. A whole box.”
Xiang Yu shook his head as if thinking of something, “I still don’t eat anymore.”
She was very calm at that time.
Everyone didn’t know that she had approached Jin Fubai in her own way.
On the day after I was eating Japanese food with Tang Yuchi, I received a call when Xiang Yu was working overtime.
A staff member on the phone said politely that the property belonging to Mr. Jin was going to be taken back, and asked her to take away the things that belonged to her.
Xiang Yu had very few things left at Jin Fubai’s, and she hadn’t been there once since Jin Fubai left.
Except for a thick layer of dust, the room was almost exactly the same as when they left. Even the half pack of cigarettes that Jin Fubai smoked was still lying on the bedside table.
The Mercedes-Benz key with the license plate number 44444 is also there.
Forgot when it was, Jin Fubai verbally said that she would give the car to Xiang Yu, of course she didn’t.
But after that, he really didn’t drive again.
Xiang Yu stared at the car key, and suddenly an idea popped up.
She picked up the key and turned to ask the staff: “Can I take the car key?”
“Of course, Miss Xiang.”
Waiting for Xiang Yu to pick up things, and then leave. It was already night, and the community was completely silent.
She drove the car in the Jin Fubai’s home complex, trying to find a hapless car that looked very expensive.
In fact, she didn’t hold any hope. People living in this community are rich or expensive, and their cars are parked in their garages. Few people park their cars on the ground of the community.
Turning to the back, I really saw one.
Not Maybach, but BMW anyway.
Xiang Yu made sure that there was no one in the car, took a deep breath, stared at the car, banging the accelerator.
When you said you were away, let me stop crying, saying that others couldn’t coax me well.
Then I won’t cry.
But you have to let me know if you are safe to live in this world, instead of being stabbed to death by branches in the green belt.
Are you right, Jin Fubai.
Xiang Yu closed his eyes and slammed into it.
With a loud “bang”, like Xiang Yu’s body rushed forward uncontrollably with inertia, and was slammed back into the seat by the seat belt and the popped airbag.
People upstairs opened the windows and looked down.
She slowly recovered from the impact, feeling like she had been beaten, her neck and head hurt, the BMW side door in front of her had been smashed into a big crater, and the front of Jin Fubai’s car was also in tatters.
The owner of the car was probably someone watching the bustle upstairs. In his tinnitus, he heard someone say “fuck” at first, and then he slammed on the car door and went downstairs.
It was a man with curly hair in a nightgown.
He opened his mouth with an unstoppable anger: “My car is parked here and you are hitting it all? What kind of driver’s license do you take for the disabled like you?”
Xiang Yu got out of the car without the seat belt and stood by the car honestly, with a guilty conscience for doing bad things and an anxiety to complete the plan.
If people are really angry, even if they beat her, she will admit it.
Xiang Yu even suppressed the emotions of all parties, sensibly thinking in his heart, how to say that people can agree, and take her to court together with the original car owner.
It seems that the perpetrator has no ability to repay?
She didn’t bring a penny of cash in her pocket. Isn’t she still incapable of repayment?
The curly-haired man cursed a few words and stopped abruptly.
He only had a look of disbelief. He stared at the license plate number for a long time before he said: “Is… my sister-in-law?”
Xiang Yu raised his eyes blankly and recognized it carefully in the night, only to vaguely remember that she had seen this person in Li Qu’s place.
Because the curly-haired man and Qu were always close at the time, she was not happy to talk to them.
The curly-haired man glanced at the license plate number again, and lit a cigarette in an aggrieved manner: “Are you okay?”
“Ok.”
The curly-haired man acknowledged his fate: “Sister-in-law, I will call you a car home. Give me an address. I will fix your car and ask someone to send it to you.”
Xiang Yu firmly disagrees, saying that I will repair the car, and I will pay you how much money, can you ask the insurance company to call the original car owner?
In the end, the man couldn’t screw it up, fearing that he couldn’t afford it, so he did what she said.
Xiang Yu looked forward to the owner, but did not wait for a familiar face.
The person who came was a young man in a black suit, who looked rigid and unsmiling, got out of the taxi and wiped the sweat of his forehead, and rushed over.
The man talked to the car owner about the compensation of the car, and seriously refused to pay Taro, and then said goodbye to her.
In the whole process, there was only one sentence, which caused a shock to Yu’s chest——
“Ms. Xiang, you don’t have to say no to me. Mr. Jin told me many years ago that I will help you solve any problems with this car. You will never let you bear anything, so don’t make me embarrassed.”
After speaking, the man turned to leave.
Inhale deeply to Yu, and stop him: “Please wait a moment.”
The man in the suit stood still and turned his head: “What else do you want?”
Inhaling deeply to Yu, he just said softly, “Is he still alive?”
The man may be very embarrassed. He was silent for a long time. After Xiang Yu thought he would not answer, he nodded: “Mr. Jin is fine, please take care of yourself, Miss Xiang, and stop doing dangerous things.”
The night wind was a bit cold, and Xiang Yu couldn’t help rubbing his arms.
Suddenly, she stood beside the two chaotic cars and laughed, laughing so hard that the night wind was choking, and she coughed a little.
What I thought in my heart was that it’s good to be alive.
In school, the teacher will play some documentaries in the extracurricular knowledge development class every Friday.
Xiang Yu remembered that there was an astronomical documentary about the falling of a meteorite and a falling meteor. There was the kind of lens in it:
A meteorite hit the ground and exploded at the same time as it fell on the ground. A hundred meters above the crater, a cloud of smoke billowed and finally calmed down.
Xiang Yu is now like a crater where the dust has settled in the video.
But later when she recalled the man in the suit again and again, she began to wonder again, feeling that he always seemed to be reluctant to say “Mr. Jin is okay”.
In order to prevent her from thinking wildly, she no longer looked at the other side with the mini-binoculars.
Zhou Lie had told her about the change of flowers in the opposite building again.
Zhou Lie stood by her desk and blocked some of the sunlight by the window. He cast his figure on her desk and suddenly asked her, “Xiang Yu, how long have we known each other?”
“About 6 or 7 years?”
Taro himself was surprised when he said it.
Yes, this is her first job after graduation, and she has been doing it now.
Zhou Lie said: “If the company changes address, will you continue to do it?”
Xiang Yu was playing with Xiaoxiaole and asked: “Is the company going to move?”
“possible.”
Zhou Lie told her that he was talking about another independent office building, and if the price was right, he might move the company there.
With the current size of the company, it is indeed a good thing to have an independent office building.
Xiang Yu smiled: “If I move away, I won’t go. The company has raised enough salted fish for me for so many years, so I won’t follow the past and make trouble.”
Zhou Lie curled up without a trace on his fingertips beside his trousers.
He said, “I feel sorry for you not to go there.”
“What’s the regret, the office scandal is cracked, and one less person’s salary can be paid. How great.” Xiang Yu said grinningly.
In the early years, Zhou Lie was grateful to her, she could feel it.
Some things cannot be done without the ability.
Zhou Lie is capable, but perhaps without those chances, he will still be unable to achieve what he has now when he is 50 years old.
The “coincidence” is only because she works in this company.
Many people gave Jin Fu white face and gave the company the green light all the way, and it developed so smoothly.
Xiang Yu thought about it since that English newspaper appeared on Zhou Lie’s desk.
He knew that she was no longer Jin Fubai’s girlfriend or lover, and whether she would still keep her in salary as if she had offered to her ancestors, drove a high salary, and played with her mobile phone every day.
So she thought, if the company moved, she would not go.
It is important for people to get together and stay away, so as not to end up tearing their skin and wasting so many years of acquaintance.
And she was gone, the flowers on the opposite side were no one cares about, how pitiful.
Zhou Lie didn’t know what he was thinking, but he didn’t say a word behind his back.
After a long time, the number of steps has not passed after finishing a round of Xiaoxiaole, and locked the phone with a grudge against him.
He raised his eyes again, looking at Zhou Lie’s gaze.
He has been watching her.
The glasses blocked part of his expression, but it still made people feel that he was emotionally complicated.
Xiang Yu was taken aback, and if he felt something, he changed the subject decisively: “Look, you see, I’m sitting at the desk and playing games, you look unpleasant, don’t you?”
“Xiang Yu.”
He yelled out and sighed inwardly towards Yu.
It seems that I can’t escape.
But Zhou Lie is not a man who is difficult for a strong man.
He just pushed his glasses and said in a very sincere tone: “You are playing with a mobile phone at the work station. I am not dissatisfied. I am not uncomfortable with the gossip they spread.”
He seemed to give himself time to think about the words, paused for a few seconds, and then continued to speak: “Actually, I am quite expecting that those gossip rumors will come true.”
He smiled at Yu, avoiding the importance of the matter and shunned it: “The rumors also say that the company’s printer will move by itself in the middle of the night. It is said that there is always crying in the last toilet on the 6th floor. Do you want to come true?
Zhou Lie stopped talking, and smiled reluctantly and said, um, yes, rumors are rumors, and they can’t come true.
It was another day of overtime work that day. This overtime was caused by the mistakes of the company’s employees. Eighty percent of the people in the entire company followed suit and were busy with their work.
Xiang Yu was busy until 11:30, and when it was over, Zhou Lie offered to send her home.
She did not refuse.
If Zhou Lie wants to say something, it’s okay to say it clearly earlier.
The window has already fallen into darkness, but the emperor city has this good point, no matter what time, the night is always brightly lit.
The commercial building in the distance was hung with shining light boards with millions of advertising expenses, and the street lights were winding around the building with the road, like a string of jewels.
Zhou Lie suddenly asked her: “What is this pot of green plants on your table?”
These two pots of green plants have been raised to taro for several years.
But she is not good at raising things. She always remembered the matter of raising the prickly pear cactus to death, so she did not dare to water more.
Then I watched the two pots of green plants, dry to the touch of fallen leaves.
Later, after finally mastering the watering cycle, this thing gave birth to bugs and was dying.
She tossed for a long time, and went to the flower and bird market on weekends to learn from other flower-selling bosses and changed several brands of pesticides.
In the end, a flower seller taught her that she should change the soil. The new soil should be watered several times with hot water, dried to kill the eggs, and then cultivated.
The insects are cleaned, the soil is not nutrient enough, and the leaves are always bluish-yellow and unconscious.
Xiang Yu had to learn to fertilize again.
After tossing and tossing, it has been four years since I took this potted green plant to the office in 2015, and it has only grown a little bit in her hands.
I vaguely remember that the villain Jin Fubai laughed at her before, just after she raised the cactus.
He sat on the sofa with his legs wide open one afternoon, and threw a small box to her, the one he used to wear agarwood sticks.
Open to the taro, inside is a piece of dry moss.
She raised her eyes for unknown reasons, and heard Jin Fubai said with a smile, that you can’t waste such a good flower-growing talent, so just feed this little moss.
Xiang Yu violently suppressed his proposal, but he actually stuffed orange seeds into the flowerpot.
When Zhou Lie asked, Xiang Yu smiled.
As she put the charger into her backpack, she said, “It’s just a few orange seeds, which he planted casually, and I will raise them.”
They know who this “he” refers to.
Zhou Lie nodded and stopped talking.
He didn’t mean to be silent, but he had nothing to say.
Regarding the rumors about Xiang Yu, what he has heard over the years is not only gossip in the office, but more.
So he was still not sure what kind of woman Xiang Yu was really like.
In Zhou Lie’s eyes, she is not vain, magnanimous, rational, and affectionate.
Just like her attitude towards this pot of orange saplings on the table, it is enough to see her personality.
The young sapling leaves are long and narrow, stretched out under the light.
Zhou Lie had also seen Xiang Yu busy spraying insecticide on the flowers.
At that time, he didn’t have any other thoughts about her, and he joked: “This medicine smells so great, don’t kill the bugs, it will make you sick.”
In fact, it is not difficult to see Xiang Yu’s love for Jin Fubai.
This pot of orange saplings was always kept here, but no matter what happened, she never thought of throwing them away.
But instinctively, think of a way to help.
When the car drove downstairs to Xiang Yu’s house, Zhou Lie turned off the engine and did not press the lock button of the car door.
Xiang Yu was not in a hurry, waiting for him to speak quietly.
“Sorry, I shouldn’t talk to you about it. It gives you unnecessary pressure. It is my own business to have a good impression of you. I hope you don’t use this as a criterion for resignation.”
Zhou Lie is a southerner with a gentle voice: “Xiang Yu, the company has reached this point in the past few years. It is impossible without you. I always treat you as one of the founders of the company, and I don’t think your salary is affected by it. Ashamed, I hope you will think about it.”
Xiang Yuhui smiled politely: “If there is a suitable position, I will consider it, and even the front desk, I am old now, not suitable for the current stage.”
“How is the personnel department?”
After Zhou Lie asked about Green Plant, he had curtailed his selfishness.
He sincerely suggested: “Actually, you are really very accurate. You can quickly analyze the pros and cons every time I fire whoever wants to stay. It is better to go to the personnel department and have time to play mobile games in addition to recruiting people.”
“The premise is that the company does not move the address.”
I can’t say why, at that moment, Xiang Yu thought only slightly sleepy after working overtime:
Jin Fubai is so prodigal. In case there is a chance to meet each other in the future, will he go to buy the opposite office building and use it for flower arranging after changing the office location because of her?
After all, he is really an out-and-out prodigal!
The company really didn’t move the address. The asking price of the independent office building differed too much from Zhou Lie’s estimate.
Xiang Yu Zi asked to be transferred to the personnel department, and his wages have also dropped a bit, but he was relieved.
Near the graduation season of college students, the personnel department was a little busy. On the day of recruiting new front desk staff, Xiang Yu unexpectedly met an acquaintance.
Xiao Xingyan back then, is sitting in their company’s interview room at this moment.
When she saw Xiang Yu, she was startled first, and then showed a surprised look. After the surprise, she was deeply uneasy.
Perhaps it was very worried that Xiang Yu knew about her past energy, and used this excuse not to recruit her.
It is rare that Xiao Xingyan is still the same as before, and all emotions are revealed on his face.
Cute and transparent.
Thinking like this, Xiang Yu sat among the three interviewers and suddenly laughed.
Xiao Xing’s eyes immediately sat down, his eyes widened.
The interview materials in her hand were crumpled by her pinching.
After the interview that day, Xiang Yu called her in the corridor: “Come and sit in my office? Make coffee for you?”
Xiao Xingyan disappeared from the tension during the interview, and followed Xiang Yu into the door, looked around her office, and sighed, “It’s been a long time.”
Xiang Yu smiled and said, “Yes, why do you think of posting your resume here?”
“It was introduced by a classmate. I just graduated this year. I didn’t study hard when I was in college. I dropped a few subjects and then re-study…”
After that, Xiao Xingyan was surprised again, “I, I actually have a good ability. Back then, it was…”
Xiang Yu handed her the brewed coffee, indicating that he would not cause troubles: “I entered this room, just reminiscing about the past.”
“Oh.”
Maybe everyone has a past, deeply buried in their hearts, and they don’t want to talk about it.
But when I really met someone related to that period of time, I couldn’t help but talk endlessly.
After years, Xiao Xingyan no longer wears that diamond bracelet.
She smiled and said that the chain was sold by her to pay for the tuition and living expenses for a year of repetition.
She recounted in detail, saying that she met Mr. Qu that year and set up a stall at the school night market to sell some gadgets. Someone rode an electric bicycle and pressed her cargo and didn’t want to compensate, so she burst into tears.
Mr. Qu appeared at that time and helped her out in time.
“President Qu, wearing a suit, squatted on the ground to help me clean up, and then sent me back to the dormitory downstairs. At that time, I thought he was like a hero.”
It didn’t take long for Mr. Qu to ask her out.
At first, I asked her to eat and buy things for her, and then I took her to the hotel to open a room.
Xiao Xing’s eyes sighed faintly: “After I parted, I just thought about it. I will meet him and it is not a good fate destined by God. He was with a girl from the dance department at that time, and that day was only to send that girl back to school. Happened to meet me.”
“I didn’t meet you in the tennis hall later, and I regret that I didn’t leave any contact information.” Xiang Yu said.
“I was in a bad mood at the time. I thought he was just changing the girl next to him, trying to stay with him for a longer time. Later I learned that he has a wife and children, and I have seen him His daughter is already in junior high school. I can’t be with him anymore. It’s hard to get involved in other people’s families the more I think about it.”
The separation was proposed by Xiao Xingyan.
This made Xiang Yu feel a lot more comfortable.
After talking for a long time, Xiao Xingyan suddenly asked, “Sister Xiang Yu, are you still with Mr. Jin now?”
After she asked, maybe she felt wrong, her face flushed a little anxiously, and she whispered, “I didn’t mean that, I just felt that you are different, so I…”
Xiang Yu understood what she meant.
Xiao Xingyan always had feelings for Qu back then. She herself had regrets, so she hoped that at least others would be fulfilled.
Xiang Yu looked down and smiled, but didn’t answer.
Later, Xiao Xingyan really passed two interviews and became the company’s new front desk.
Xiang Yu can see her every day at work and after get off work, and occasionally sit and chat with her.
Spring just passed, and in a blink of an eye, June, the temperature became warmer, and I started to want to add ice to drink coffee.
Maybe there was a will in the dark, starting from Xiao Xingyan, Xiang Yu began to frequently meet people from the old days during this month.
At first, it was a gathering in the personnel department, and Xiang Yu, as the supervisor, promised to take the department employees out.
The employees naturally cheered, and a colleague suggested to go to a newly opened nightclub after dinner.
It’s just that Xiang Yu didn’t expect that after eating and taking a taxi, the road became more and more familiar.
Sitting in the front passenger seat, she tilted her head and asked: “Is this the road?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
A little girl sitting in the back of the car said excitedly, “This nightclub has been open for many years, but it closed down for rectification last year. It seems that the owner has changed and the decoration is cooler. Now it’s very popular.”
The car stopped in front of Li Ju’s place, and the blue star-like light strip overhead had been replaced, and the whole building glowed bright yellow.
The two winged lion statues at the door were also replaced with flickering lamp posts.
Xiang Yu followed in silently. There was no change in the layout, but the decoration was more futuristic.
Walking into a place full of surging light is like entering a certain time and space many years later.
The one closest to the DJ station used to be Li Qi’s favorite. Xiang Yu often sat there with them. No matter what they talked about, she played snake-eating irresponsibly.
Now there are young men and women with strange faces sitting there, some people spend money like dirt and drink a row of lavish wines.
She suddenly remembered that Li Ju had his birthday that year. The diamonds on her body were 20 carats in total. She stood in front of the table, raised her hand, and her body was bright.
He said happily: “Thank you friends for hosting my birthday party.”
It’s only a few years.
This time made people unable to rest. I stayed at the taro for a while, feeling uncomfortable, so I simply settled the bill and got up to say goodbye.
The car called hadn’t arrived yet, so she went to the bathroom to fix her makeup and was hit by a woman who was drinking too much.
The woman was covered in alcohol and perfume, dressed in a sequined dress, and slapped her head with her loose hair.
Xiang Yu subconsciously stabilized her, hitting her back against the wall, painful.
The woman was very thin and thin, her shoulder blades protruding from the open-back skirt, planted in Xiang Yu’s arms, and there was no response for a long time.
“Are you OK?”
After asking Taro, the woman held on and raised her head.
The messy hair slipped from his face, and at that moment, Xiang Yu was in the light and saw the other’s innocent and pure eyes.
It is Anho.
She was so drunk that she didn’t even recognize Xiang Yu, but she said dimly, “Thank you.”
Then he ran into the bathroom crookedly.
The uncomfortable vomiting sound continued from the compartment, and he sighed at the taro, took out a pack of tissues from the bag, walked over, knocked on the door, and passed it through the door.
The tissue was quickly picked up by the person who was already sitting on the ground inside, and took his hand to the taro and left the night scene.
After graduating from high school that year, Ansui dressed in school uniform and took a group photo with her class, and Xiang Yu and Tang Yuchi squatted under the shade of the trees to wait for her.
After taking the picture, she ran over like a butterfly, smiled and said, “Thank you, wait for me for so long.”
At that time, Tang Yuchi was very dogged, handed over the cold milk tea, fanned people with a mini electric fan, and said, “No hard work, no hard work, our Suisui was admitted to a key school, and it should be waited.”
Xiang Yu let out a sigh of relief in the evening breeze, and got into the taxi.
Emperor City said that it is big or not, and that it is small is not too small. More than 20 million people gather in it, but she always meets her deceased.
The taxi window was half open, and the wind blew gently at night, giving her an illusion.
She seemed to meet Jin Fubai.
Maybe it’s because I have seen all the things in Li Chi’s place. When Xiangyu was free at that time, I would always go to the rooftop with coffee to stand for a while when the sun was shining.
It’s quiet there, and I can think of the past time and Jin Fubai without any distractions.
She remembered that for a while, she had not moved to Jin Fubai’s house.
They stayed in Li Qi’s hotel suite. Sometimes they got up to Yu Yu and felt so angry that they couldn’t find the ear studs that day when they went out. They were sulking, and they didn’t speak much to Jin Fubai during the meal.
Jin Fubai noticed it, and was not annoyed, and served her with vegetables and soup as usual.
Until the car drove downstairs to the company, he unfastened his seat belt and kissed her. Xiang Yu didn’t have much patience. After kissing for a while, he pushed the person away and left in anger.
But she went upstairs with her forefoot, and within a few minutes, Jin Fubai swaggered to the door with a small shopping bag.
At that time, she was working at the front desk, and when she saw him coming, she was stunned for a while and asked him, why are you here?
He put the bag at the front desk of the company, and said in a pretentious manner, handing this to Xiang Yu for me, and by the way, he helped me pass a message, saying that he would wait for her to eat in the evening.
He left after speaking.
Opening the bag to Yu, it was exactly the same as the earring she couldn’t find, and it was a new pair of diamond earrings.
She is indeed a little lost, and Jin Fubai has become more and more accustomed to this problem.
He didn’t know how many pairs of diamond stud earrings he had bought for her.
Sometimes Xiangyu packed up things and often found single stud earrings. In the last drawer, there were 8 or 9 of these diamond stud earrings left unused.
When Xiang Yu took a coffee and headed to the rooftop, it happened that there was someone on the rooftop. The person was holding the phone and didn’t know who was arguing with him, shouting fiercely.
She touched the tip of her nose with some embarrassment, preparing to go down.
The person holding the phone suddenly turned around, and when he saw her, surprise appeared on the man’s face.
Zhao Yanmo hung up the phone and blurted out: “Xiang Yu, long time no see, why are you here? Are you working in this office building?”
Xiang Yu held up his coffee cup to Zhao Yanmo: “Well, it’s been a long time since I saw you, your imperial capital is better than before.”
Zhao Yanmo: “…”
Unexpectedly, they could meet in such a place, and the two chatted briefly.
Zhao Yanmo suddenly sighed: “Xiang Yu, did you blame me when you broke up that year? I thought I was so awesome at that time. I didn’t expect to be a clerk after 7 years of graduation.”
Xiang Yu shook his head calmly: “I don’t remember.”
Later, Zhao Yanmo said something casually, and Xiang Yu just nodded in response.
She didn’t mean to renew the past, after drinking her coffee, she was about to bid farewell and go downstairs.
Just then, I received the message from the group.
Zhou Lie said that he has been working hard overtime these days. He invited several of their senior executives to dinner and asked if everyone would like to eat.
Usually this group is deserted, and it’s just like this.
A group of people said that summer is here, and barbecue is the most suitable, so they began to discuss which barbecue tastes the most authentic.
Xiang Yu didn’t feel much about barbecue, but because Zhao Yanmo was standing beside her, she suddenly thought of the barbecue restaurant in Xiuchun Street.
The restaurants on that street were not as close to each other as she used to be at school. She hadn’t been to them in a few years.
Xiang Yu looked up from the phone and pointed to the direction of the stairs: “I’m going to work first.”
“Ah, go go.” Zhao Yanmo waved his hand unnaturally.
After walking a few steps, Xiang Yu turned around again: “By the way, do you have a phone number for the Xiuchun Street barbecue restaurant?”
She searched it online just now, but she didn’t find it.
“Huh? You said that store? It seems to have closed down.”
Also, in recent years, the integration of dining, shopping and entertainment has suddenly become popular. Many restaurants are close to shopping malls. Young people like this model, go shopping and watch movies, and have a meal near the mall by the way.
It’s not like in the early years, I took a taxi to a far place just to find a restaurant.
Nodding to Taro, thank you casually.
Suddenly there were some regrets. At any rate, that store was where she and Jin Fubai met for the first time.
Zhao Yanmo behind him said, “If you are looking for a place to eat, don’t go there. There are no restaurants on that street. Now there are few restaurants left. The barbecue shop seems to have become a nursing home or something. Yes, the walls are covered with moss…”
“moss?”
“Yeah, a lot of people took pictures of that street. Some people invested money to build a small artificial river. They seemed to say, to increase moisture and raise moss? It’s really interesting that the rich nowadays raise everything.”
What Zhao Yanmo said later, Xiang Yu didn’t listen carefully, she didn’t even say goodbye to Zhao Yanmo, and ran downstairs holding the coffee cup.
When the high heels hit the tiled surface, she only felt the airflow in her ears condensed into a buzz.
Moss, raise moss.
-“This little thing can live for a long time. It can survive for a few years if it has enough water.”
It was the year she and Jin Fubai first met, and he pushed her onto the old piano planted with green plants and kissed her fiercely.
Jin Fubai murmured when she bumped into some moss. She reluctantly poured the agarwood and put away the moss that fell.
How could there be such a coincidence, it happened where they met for the first time, and it happened to be the moss?
Xiang Yu ran very fast, like a gust of wind into the office, and met Zhou Lie who came to the office to look for her.
Zhou Lie said: “I’m looking for you. Didn’t you say that there is a barbecue restaurant recommended in the group? Did you find it by phone? I’ll ask someone to book a private room.”
“No phone, closed down.”
While talking to Yu, he drove quickly to pack his bags, turned around and walked around Zhou Lie who was standing at the door, and walked out quickly.
“Xiang Yu, where are you going?”
She didn’t have time to look back, and just said: “Absenteeism! Skip work!”
Zhou Lie behind him, looking at the back running towards Yu, his eyes dimmed.
In the early years, he had seen such a cheerful Xiang Yu.
At that time, if she ran away from get off work at such a pace, he would surely see a good car upstairs, and a man of expensive temperament leaning against the car smoking a cigarette.
Xiang Yu’s heart beat very fast, and she realized it only when she got in a taxi. Actually, she drove to the company today, and she didn’t even think of it for a while.
The taxi drove to Xiuchun Street, and there was chaos in Taro’s mind.
When it was close to Xiuchun Street, the traffic jam at the intersection was similar to the scene in 2012.
When she was stuck in the street, she started to think wildly.
What nursing home does Jin Fubai live in?
Counting his age, he is only 35 years old. Isn’t he attractive for men at this age?
Why did he live in a nursing home?
When the car finally drove into Xiuchun Street, Xiang Yu was a little startled.
This street is completely different from the memory. Although it still retains some shadows of the past, it has been renovated and modernized.
Familiar restaurants on the street have all changed, including clothing stores, fruit and vegetable stores, and pharmacies.
Xiang Yu walked in and saw the moss on the stone slab on the street, and the courtyard house which was said to be turned into a nursing home.
There was no one in the courtyard. She pushed the door in. Someone told her that it hadn’t opened yet, and the person in charge was not there. Let her come back in a few days.
Those excitement and excitement, like the tide, gradually receded from the body.
It turned out that Jin Fubai was not here.
She slumped into the side alley, where the low stone platform was still there, and Xiang Yu sat on it, constantly sad.
Suddenly I remembered clearly that the teacher in junior high school said that Wen Tingyun’s poem, the phrase “A thousand sails are not too much” at that time was only used by them to tease a boy named “Qianfan” in the class.
Thinking about it now, she might really feel the meaning.
For so many years, Xiang Yu has never felt this way.
I felt in a daze that she and Jin Fubai would never meet again in this life as if they had not met today.
A door in the alley suddenly opened, and the young man came out to take out the trash, then went back and closed the door.
Every few seconds,
