The actress is reborn and is chasing after her husband.
Chapter 123 Tacit understanding
The armed police vehicle from the detachment took Ximerlin directly to the outside of a residential area called Nanfeng in the city.
Having been away for so long, she felt as if the surroundings had become somewhat unfamiliar, the environment seemed to be getting better and better, and there were more facilities.
When I got home, sure enough, the whole room was covered in dust.
Since it was a fully furnished apartment, she didn't buy any furniture at the time, only a bed and mattress, a few appliances, and kitchen and bathroom utensils.
The interior furnishings and layout are very simple. We chose this place because it would save us the trouble and effort of decorating.
This is her own little home, and every time she comes back, she feels safe and relaxed.
I took off my coat, rolled up my sleeves, put my suitcase by the door, and started cleaning without even changing my shoes.
As it was getting dark, Schimerlin finally finished cleaning the entire house until it was spotless. She felt it was even more tiring than training with the team.
The refrigerator is empty, and I need to buy new toiletries.
After resting for a while, she put on her coat and prepared to go out for a stroll.
As the Spring Festival approaches, Jiangyan, a fourth-tier city, is much more lively than those big cities. Everywhere is filled with joy, with colorful lights on the trees along the roadside and festive red lanterns hanging on the streetlights.
Upon entering the supermarket, one finds crowds thronging the area, creating a festive atmosphere reminiscent of the Chinese New Year.
Schimerlin pushed the shopping cart. Besides buying some daily necessities, she also needed to purchase New Year's goods. She didn't need to buy too much for herself, just enough to eat. Anyway, it's very convenient to buy things now.
As she strolled through the meat section, her phone rang. She took it out of her pocket and saw that the caller ID showed it was Yang Ma. She hesitated for a moment.
However, she still pressed the answer button.
"Aunt Yang..."
"Mo Mo, are you resting? I was worried you were too busy to answer the phone."
Schimerlin avoided the noisy place: "No, I'm not busy these days."
Are you coming home for Chinese New Year this year?
"This year... I'm afraid it won't work either."
In recent years, she has almost always made excuses, but fortunately she went back once before, otherwise she would feel even more guilty.
“Sigh… Sometimes I think, it was better when you were little. You stayed with us during holidays, unlike now, when you’ve all gone to all over the country.”
Yang Yufen was filled with emotion, and her tone was particularly downcast.
"Aunt Yang, I'm sorry..."
Although there were only a few days left this year, after what happened to Yongjie, she dared not let her guard down again, fearing that something else might happen.
“It’s okay, I was just venting. We understand your difficulties… Take good care of yourself over there, and have a good rest during the New Year. Don’t always bury yourself in work.”
"Yes, I know. You and Rong's dad should also be happy. Go out and wander around when you have time. I'll come back to see you when I'm less busy."
"Okay, then it's settled."
"Well, it's settled."
After hanging up the phone, Xi Molin sighed deeply. She always felt she owed Rong's parents too much.
While she was queuing to pay, her phone rang again. This time it was Shu Xiangjun, and she answered without hesitation.
"Mo Mo, are you still not coming back for Chinese New Year this year?"
He had clearly guessed her intentions.
"Um... I won't be able to come back this year."
Shu Xiangjun sighed loudly, "What can we do? I heard that my sister went to Chengdu and it seems she won't be coming back for the New Year."
She came to Chengdu…
Her calm heart was once again struck by a TNT bomb, causing her thoughts to explode.
"Are you serious?"
A gasp of surprise suddenly rang out.
"MoMo, when have I ever lied to you..."
Although he was glib and witty, he had never lied to her.
"So, is she in Chengdu... attending some kind of event?"
She thought that after the training camp ended, she would have no further contact with her, but her repeated approach still stirred her heart.
"My sister didn't go into details, she just said that she would be there for the New Year. I thought since it's not far from you, I wanted to let you know in advance so you can meet up with her when you have time."
She understood his thoughts perfectly well.
"Well, I will."
"I'll hang up now, we'll talk again when I have time."
"it is good…"
After hanging up the phone, Xi Molin looked at the long queue in front of her, then looked down at the items in her shopping cart. After a moment of contemplation, she went back and picked out quite a few more things.
Carrying a lot of things home, I put everything away, and the quiet place suddenly didn't seem so monotonous anymore.
It was completely dark by then, and the sound of children setting off firecrackers could be heard from time to time in the neighborhood.
She sat on the sofa, hesitating whether or not she should call her sister.
At this moment, Xi Juan sent her a WeChat message, asking if she was free to go to a bar to sit down, as they were going to celebrate their anniversary.
Without thinking for too long, she quickly went to her room to change into a dark gray wool coat that accentuated her figure, paired with a black turtleneck sweater, skinny jeans, and her usual Martin boots.
Then I hurriedly left the residential area and hailed a Didi (ride-hailing service).
It takes about an hour to get from where she lives to Jiuyanqiao, and at least two hours if there is traffic.
However, she wasn't in a hurry, since the bar's opening hours were quite late.
The driver kept stopping and starting, and it was already past nine o'clock when we were almost at our destination.
Jiuyanqiao is the area with the highest concentration of bars in Chengdu; they can be found almost everywhere.
The bar opened by Xi Juan and Xiao Yang is not big, but it has a handsome resident singer and bartender, and the environment is also unique.
Seeing their friend come all the way from Jiangyan to support them, the two were overjoyed and chatted with her for a long time, naturally indulging in a few drinks.
Schimerling had some musical knowledge and was quickly put on stage.
She let the guests request any song, and she would play it as long as it wasn't too obscure.
At this moment, a female guest sitting in the shadows, wearing a hat and speaking in a low voice, took the lead in requesting "The Moon Represents My Heart".
Schimerling said it wasn't difficult. She placed the microphone in front of her, took out her harmonica, and prepared to play.
The noisy place gradually quieted down.
As ethereal music filled the bar, everyone's thoughts drifted away; perhaps beautiful music always resonates with listeners.
Next, several more guests requested old songs.
Schimerlin played one piece after another, with excellent rhythm control, making for a particularly pleasant listening experience.
When she finished playing, everyone present applauded.
She went to the bar and sat down, and then a resident singer came on stage.
Xi Juan came to her side, smiling gently, "Merlin, thank you."
"You're welcome. I haven't played the harmonica in a long time either, so this is a good opportunity to practice."
Bartender Ray mixed her a low-alcohol drink. She thanked him and took a small sip.
Xi Juan suddenly put her hand on her arm and whispered, "Come stay at my place tonight."
The two, who were from the same hometown and shared the same surname, tacitly understood the meaning of these words in a different way.
Schimerlin swallowed the rising taste of alcohol in his throat, lowered his eyes, and remained silent.
"Merlin, if you don't want to, you don't have to force yourself..."
Xi Juan noticed her hesitation. She had always been straightforward in her feelings, but she was different with her than with others.
"No, I just..."
She had just turned her head when she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure passing by, and she suddenly stood up.
