red dust under the lamp

When I got off the bus, the sky was a diaper-yellow.Ning Jue was standing next to the stop sign smoking, the eyes of the two gangsters were buried in the smoke, but no one approached her, they were far away, and she didn't follow closely when she returned to the rental house, just left like that.

Ning Jue packed up her things and moved.

She often reads comic strips, and occasionally sees the picture book One Hundred Thousand Whys, which introduces how ancient human tribes live in the jungle, the jungle preys on the strong, hunting and being hunted, and the tone of the author's narration seems to be talking about something far away.But these are not far away, and the city is just a forest. Ning Jue is the most beautiful female beast among the beasts, and will be regarded as prey or an object to be conquered anytime and anywhere.

When she was in Pingdu, she was occasionally caught by a man and fell in love with her at first sight. She wanted to find a way to give some gangster friends drinks and cigarettes to solve this trouble.She was cautious, not being targeted by anyone. In a big place like Nancheng, she was not a gangster, nor could she easily blend in with the local gangsters. People who could dispatch gangsters to keep up with her... Ning Jue Knowing that I can't solve it, I can only escape.

But looking for a house still has to wait for the next house, moving from one house to another, two tormented days in vain, Ning Jue deliberately staggered her usual working hours, haunted like a thief, and moved so strangely that she herself Feeling suspicious...but got caught anyway.

That day she carried a washbasin to the big bathhouse behind the rental house to take a bath. In order to save time, she brushed her teeth and washed her hair in advance while walking, wearing a head of foam like a crazy woman who would never come near her.In the middle of the road, there was a giant tree that was said to be manifesting spirits with its neck crooked. She walked around the crooked neck tree and saw a black car lying in the middle of the road with the door open.

She subconsciously felt bad.Who would swing a car sideways on the road?There are no idlers around, only I have passed this way.

Ask for directions?Absolutely not, her image at the moment is really not close to strangers.

Pulled out the toothbrush from her mouth, stabbed it back, and poked it on the chest of a man who jumped up, but it didn't help, she was carried into the car with foamy hair, and there was a man sitting behind the car, wearing a suit and tie , short hair, neither beautiful nor ugly, nothing special.

Ning Jue searched in her memory, and remembered that she was caught pretending to be Wenwen at the Keller Nightclub, and this was the man.

How long has this happened, and the retribution is coming now?Ning Jue rubbed her head with her hands, and looked at the man pretending to be calm.

"Oh, it's you...I'm so sorry, I'm not Wenwen..." she said.

The man smiled a little, looked at her out of the corner of his eye, and handed her a bottle of water to rinse her mouth: "Such a good memory? It's been a month since we saw each other last time, right?"

"I'm better at remembering people." Ning Jue rinsed his mouth and opened the door to spit it out.

The strong man who brought her in was about to get up and drag her in the front seat, but Ning Jue closed the door and sat back: "What do you want from me?"

Anyway, it can't run.Her worst plan is to be a mistress, and her best plan is to deal with it and leave.

"My surname is Kong, and I'm doing a small business." The man stretched out his hand.

Ning Jue took out the company's introduction card from his body and handed it over: "Boss Kong, hello, I work for Nancheng Housekeeping Service Company. We dare not say the best housekeeping service in Nancheng, but the most humane, most international We are the domestic service company with the most professional and scientific management and the widest range of businesses.”

Boss Kong choked, and looked at Ning Jue meaningfully for a while: "It's a shame to be a housekeeper."

"You're looking for me, not as a housekeeper?"

Ning Jue pretended to be stupid, and the car started slowly.

For a while, Ning Jue was flustered. She didn't know much about the evil forces in Nancheng. Her knowledge of Boss Kong was limited to seeing him in a bathrobe for fun in the Keller nightclub. However, who knew that someone would stare at someone who met once and find this job.

But the prey can't guess the mind of the hunter, and it's hard for a busy person to imagine that someone is so idle.

Are you going to clean her up?Is it the people from Keller's Nightclub who are planning to recruit her?

Or what are competitors going to do?

The past experience is not enough, so she can only read the libretto while riding a donkey - she will feel chilly in her heart, and she will split her thighs to welcome the future.

But in the end, she didn't let her worry down. The car went all the way to the gate of Nancheng Restaurant, which was the best among the first batch of individual restaurants after Nancheng was re-opened. The waiter handed her a hot towel. Before she picked it up, Boss Kong turned his head , looked her straight in the eyes: "You are really a born actor."

"You can't be the director, can you?"

"It used to be..." Boss Kong recalled the past, looked somewhere in the void, then took Ning Jue's shoulders and led her into the restaurant.

Ning Jue shrugged his shoulders and let the boss of Kaikong find a place to sit down with a smile on his face: "Now that I'm in the sea, should I invest in making movies myself?"

Boss Kong nodded: "You quite understand."

Ning Jue thought that she was not a fool, so there was nothing she didn't understand, if she continued to pretend to be useless and mysterious, she would fall asleep.

Boss Kong sat beside her, opened the menu and spit out a list of dish names. While waiting for the dishes to be served, Boss Kong looked at Ning Jue: "Tell me about yourself."

"This is an interview? You want me to be the number one female? There are so many girls in the film school, what can I do."

Then she didn't wait for Boss Kong to say anything, and started the "interview" calmly, drank water to moisten her throat, moved the stool two positions away, and sat upright: "My name is Ning Jue. You must know it too , I am from Pingdu, my parents died, and I came to Nancheng to do housekeeping. I became a group leader because I can speak Mandarin well. Last time I went to Keller Nightclub, because I passed by the parking lot over there and saw my friend’s My husband was there—I was very upset, so I followed him in. But later, I didn't want to talk about it, so I didn't tell my friends. Then, you came to me. "

Boss Kong propped his face and touched the cigarette to Ning Jue. Ning Jue waved his hand. The film, won an award, and later became a business. Now I plan to invest in some films I like..."

None of this has anything to do with Ning Jue, she has never studied acting, even Li Juanjuan is now popular because of her relationship with relatives. In short, there is some capital.As for her, she only has the youthful beauty that is growing day by day and is being rubbed off in the detergent, and she has been mixed in the society, and she doesn't even have to pretend to be an innocent girl.

Even being a canary... She doesn't have much capital. First, she doesn't know how to make people happy. She is only good at evasion and short-term perfunctory acting. Second, she is not even a virgin. He sold himself out of compulsion, but it is said that the membrane will grow back again, can he pretend to be it now?She's not sure.

"Now, the film at hand is my story, my own story... I want to find a heroine for it, the heroine in my memory. When I saw you in Keller that day, you were exactly like her."

"First love?" Ning Jue said in his heart that he was connected.

"It's not counted, it's... secret love." Boss Kong mentioned that smoking is very fierce, and there are already two more cigarette butts in the ashtray. Among the smoke, the waiter is like a fairy. A strong man, Ning Jue has nowhere to escape.

Do you want to sit here and listen to someone's secret love history?

I finally listened to it. Boss Kong told about his experience of being very hungry when he was a child, and how he had an extraordinary relationship with a certain person in a remote village. Unfortunately, when she finally returned to her hometown, she was already married, and he didn’t even have feelings for him. Haven't expressed it.

Ning Jue inexplicably bears the image of a "beautiful, cunning and lively" woman. Boss Kong wants her to be the heroine, and is willing to spend 10 yuan for this.

10 yuan!Ning Jue's legs were so weak that she almost fell to the ground.

This is such a huge sum of money, Boss Kong is still increasing the price, telling her that if she performs well, she will get another 10 yuan.

The temptation of 20 yuan was just around the corner, and Boss Kong said something else to her.

Ning Jue was so hot-headed that she almost agreed. This is an opportunity, and she has always been a person who holds opportunities very firmly.

But the instinct of vigilance for a long time made her avoid it first and go out to use the bathroom.She walked lightly, blown up by a sudden opportunity, 20 yuan was within reach, she washed her hands and planned to agree, but when she washed her hands, the scab on the back of her hand fell off, it was cut on the rose bush downstairs in Xie Yichen's house last time , and was bitten by her teeth.

She briefly thought that staying with Xie Yichen for 700 yuan would kill her time, she wiped her hands and walked out the door. As far as she could see, there was a group of people having a dinner party. In the center was a man with his hands in his pockets and wearing a sea blue shirt. , looks very naive, but his face is still majestic.

Xu Liwen eating here?Xu Liwen is in Nancheng?Now that it's popular, could it be that Boss Kong called it?

She suddenly calmed down.

Even if not, she still has to think about whether she can afford the 20 yuan.She is the shadow of her first love, a substitute lover, to make up for regrets...then——

20 is not cheap, is it appropriate to sell yourself for this?She pondered for a while, and finally shook her head.

Boss Kong loves her when he wants her to act in a movie, but he doesn't love her himself, he just loves the phantom on her shadow.Human beings are always chasing after the wind, from rich to poor, they all look forward to some ethereal things.

Xu Liwen saw her from a distance, but she had already entered the private room.

Boss Kong said, "What's the matter? It's so noisy outside?"

"It's nothing." It seemed that Boss Kong didn't invite him, so Ning Jue sat down, thinking about his rejection.

Boss Kong showed his qualifications as an older person, and kept his sense of proportion: "I know, this matter is too much to bother you. You can go back and think about it for ten and a half months before replying to me. When you are done, call my number. Now , eat vegetables, eat vegetables, the pork liver here is the best, you are welcome."
