I have something to tell you

Lu Jingsheng often came to this barbecue restaurant when she was a child, and the aroma of barbecue was accompanied by the sky high and sea wide after skipping school.

There was a time in high school that she and Tong Youning hated their English teacher very much, a young intern teacher, who would slap the table and stare as soon as he got on the horse, trying to give the students a bad impression.

However, when he speaks English, he has a strong accent, not a Scottish accent or a London accent, but an accent from a province in our country.See-through miniskirts, cross-browed coldly at female students, and turned to boys with sunshine and moonlight, completely devoid of the style of being a teacher.

If it was an ordinary public high school, the seniors and the dean would have come here long ago, but Lu Jingsheng and Tong Youning went to a private high school. This person is a relative of the principal, saying that the internship is an excuse, and they will definitely stay in school after the internship.

Lu Jingsheng and Tong Youning didn't want to attend her class at all, and skipped class to eat barbecue as soon as they came to English class, so they were naturally reported to their parents by the head teacher.In this barbecue shop, the two of them were caught by Lu's mother several times, and also kicked by Tong's mother... Every time Lu Jingsheng came here, she would remember that when she and Tong Youning went back to class obediently, they corrected the English teacher's pronunciation word by word, She cried and ran out of the teacher's absurdity.

But it is destined that from now on, this barbecue restaurant will bring her another memory.

The best pork belly, fat beef, and beef tongue are surrounded by the grill pan. The meat on the grill pan is fragrant, dripping with oil, and sizzling. It is very lively, but the four people sitting on both sides are silent. It was so weird that even the waiter who was in charge of the barbecue couldn't bear it, wiped off his sweat, divided the meat, and left in a hurry.

"I watched "The Walk of Fire" some time ago, and it was really good. Ms. Ye wrote the script?" It was Li Ailan who spoke first, and stabbed Ye Xiaojun directly.

"Thank you, Auntie." Ye Xiaojun answered with a smile as if he was ready.

"You are quite capable at a young age. I heard that this movie won the box office championship."

"The success of "Xing Huo" is naturally the credit of the entire crew, and also thanks to the guidance of director Wu Zhimo."

Ye Xiaojun's answer was calm and steady, which was a bit beyond Lu Jingsheng's expectation.

This girl is usually shy, and she knows she has a thin skin.But ever since she was completely irritated by Gu Lan and nearly killed her, Lu Jingsheng felt that she was a little different.

"Quite modest." Li Ailan continued to ask, "What does Miss Ye's family do?"

"My parents are both workers and divorced very early. I followed my mother, who passed away a few years ago."

"Oh? Living alone now?"

"um, yes."

"I've been working as a screenwriter all this time? You used to be a shooter for others, right?"

Ye Xiaojun smiled and said: "That's right, before the CIIE, I was working as a shooter and writing scripts for others..."

Li Ailan had no interest in listening to her continue this topic, and then asked: "How old is this year?"

"32."

"You're married."

"not yet."

"Why are you still not married at such an age?"

Lu Jingsheng couldn't stand it anymore, and was about to speak, Xing Xin rushed out first: "Hey, what are you doing? Those who didn't know thought you were picking a daughter-in-law... You are too used to managing people, Xiaoye is Zhuang Zhuang's friend, not your employee, so I'll let you worry about it."

Li Ailan glared at her, her throat tightened, she didn't dare to say any more, she shrank back: "Oh."

Li Ailan opened her mouth to ask again, but was stopped by Lu Jingsheng.

"Mommy—!" Lu Jingsheng said, "You don't have time to spare your mouth! Eat meat quickly, it will become fishy when it gets cold, you will feel uncomfortable after eating it, and people will feel sorry for Mommy again -"

Lu Jingsheng's words were at least eight keys higher than usual, even pretending to be obedient and disgusting, which made Xing Xin tremble.

It's a pity that the table is a bit big, and Lu Jingsheng can't wait to put all the food into her mother's bowl, and even pour it directly into her mouth.

Xing Xin sighed for a long time, looked up at the sky and said, "It's better to have a daughter. A daughter is my mother's caring little padded jacket, and she knows how to hurt people! It's not like my son who is homeless, and I have to rush him even to make a phone call." , I came back from Chinese New Year holidays and left before my butt was hot, oops..."

Deathly silence.

Xing Xin: "...cough."

Not right tonight.Xing Xin has come to her senses this time, why does she feel weird when she says anything...

"Your friend is in trouble and you run away like this, isn't it unjust?"

The female conductor and Tong Youning walked to the glass corridor outside the concert hall.There is no snow tonight, the air is a little dry, a big bright moon hangs in the sky, the typical bright moon and few stars.

The moonlight and the dim light interact with each other, and the natural lighting, the place with Tong Youning is like a scene in a movie.

"I'm willing to define it for other things, but it's her mother, it's a housework, I really can't help it." Tong Youning said, "Tell me about you, since I met you last time in Tahiti, at least I haven't seen you for five or six years. It's like cutting off half of you, how come you are so thin."

The female conductor is tall and taller than Tong Youning in shoes with a little heel: "After that incident, I have been actively exercising and eating healthy. In fact, I didn't lose weight quickly, but the effect was good and I didn't rebound. Don't say it, I It really changed from 100 kilograms to 100 catties."

Tong Youning: "There are many people with perseverance, and I admire the ones who can keep their mouths shut."

"Mouth, I can control my eating, but I can't control my talking. I'm more willing to control the latter."

"Why, climbing to the position of the official conductor of the orchestra is afraid of offending people?"

The female conductor was seen through, she pressed her finger on her lips and pulled it horizontally, she smiled and said nothing.

Tong Youning: "Remember your name is Chen Li."

"Miss Tong has a good memory."

Tong Youning said in her heart: Of course I can't forget, because you missed the flight back home, the performance almost opened the skylight, this incident rarely happened in her very upright career, if there is any financial loss, you have to come back to her to settle the score.

Talking casually, getting along with each other is natural and easy. The coming and going between you and me is not like seeing a second time, but like an old friend who has known for a long time.

Two people came from a distance.

Two women, one tall and one short, came towards them through the gravel road from the back door of the concert hall.

"My friend is here, I'll go say hello." Chen Li waved to them, "Ji Wei."

It was Ji Wei and Shu Zijing who came.

Ji Wei and Chen Li are classmates in the same department in the university, and they had a very good relationship for a while, this is a later story.Today is Chen Li's first concert after returning to China, and Ji Wei is invited to watch it.Ji Wei thought that a high-level performance would help Shu Zijing's music, so naturally he brought her here too.

The world is that small.

Both Shu Zijing and Tong Youning saw each other.

"I'm leaving first." Tong Youning said to Chen Li.

"Well, why..." Chen Li didn't think that Tong Youning was a person who didn't like to make friends, but after thinking about it, it might be because of his status that he didn't want to leave gossip, "Okay... so, can you leave a message?" Call me. I have always wanted to find a chance to thank you for what happened back then."

"no need."

Shu Zijing's face was the same as before, full of worry, hesitant to speak.

Ji Wei's smile narrowed the moment he saw Tong Youning.

Tong Youning found it funny: "I am a person who is suitable to be far away from everyone."

Tong Youning left, Chen Li felt baffled.Ji Wei came up to say hello, her expression was not very good, and the first thing she said was: "Why are you with this kind of person."

Chen Li was puzzled: "What do you mean? You mean Ms. Tong? Do you know each other?"

Ji Wei wanted to speak, but glanced at Shu Zijing, endured it and said nothing.

Shu Zijing blinked and said hello to Chen Li: "Mr. Chen, I am Shu Zijing, a student of Teacher Xiaowei."

Chen Li: "Hello."

"Tonight's performance was very exciting, I have something to ask..."

The moment she saw Tong Youning, she was clearly full of expectations but also afraid of being rejected, slowly approaching like a trembling deer.When Tong Youning left without looking back, she felt relieved.

During this year, Tong Youning kept his promise and stayed far away from Shu Zijing.Shu Zijing didn't take the initiative to find her, and maintained his last dignity.

For a long time, Shu Zijing didn't mention this person, Ji Wei thought she had forgotten about this woman.But when Tong Youning appeared again, Shu Zijing's fiery eyes still followed her.

Burning quietly and rationally.

She learned to keep her mind in her heart.

Shu Zijing asked Chen Li for advice so that the reunion of the two old friends would not be a terrible embarrassment, while Lu Jingsheng was still hot on the other side.

Li Ailan attacked Ye Xiaojun single-handedly, and asked all eighteen generations of her ancestors. If she could dig up the graves of her ancestors, she might really dig to see if they were real.

Ye Xiaojun was not in a hurry, neither humble nor overbearing, and responded to what she had to say, Lu Jingsheng interrupted from time to time to help her block, but gradually she became impatient.

Ye Xiaojun got up to go to the bathroom, and Lu Jingsheng followed suit.

"I don't think what happened today is right. Something must happen. My mother must have follow-up plans. If it doesn't work, let's split things up later." Lu Jingsheng said to Ye Xiaojun in the bathroom.

"Row."

Lu Jingsheng's premonition was right.As soon as they came back, Li Ailan asked, "Are you full?"

"I'm full." Lu Jingsheng responded righteously.

"Did you all come here by car?"

Lu Jingsheng: "Hmm..."

After the "hmm", she immediately felt something was wrong, but it was too late to repent.

Li Ailan: "That's fine, you send me off."

Acting separately was as expected by Lu Jingsheng.

Lu Jingsheng rubbed Ye Xiaojun's thigh with her knee under the table, acting coquettishly and apologetically.

Ye Xiaojun shook Lu Jingsheng's hand secretly: don't worry.

Lu Jingsheng wanted to give her the wallet from the bag, but Li Ailan stood up and stared at her: "Let's go, I have a headache."

Lu Jingsheng was very unhappy tonight.As an elder, although her mother didn't speak harsh words to each other, her attitude of asking the truth was really rude enough.

But this is her mother, she can only hold back her anger.

When they took the elevator to the parking lot together, Lu Jingsheng wanted to pass Ye Xiaojun her wallet, but Li Ailan kept holding her hand and refused to give her a chance at all.

At B3, Lu Jingsheng was in a hurry, but Ye Xiaojun walked forward naturally: "Auntie, my car is parked in front, let's go first, and I will visit you when I have time."

Li Ailan: "Well, goodbye."

A natural performance, very natural and unaffected.

But Lu Jingsheng knew that she didn't bring her keys or wallet, so she probably only had some change in her pocket for her to take a taxi home...

On a winter night, when thinking of Ye Xiaojun going to take a taxi alone against the wind, Lu Jingsheng felt uncomfortable.

Quickly invite her mother and Aunt Xing into the car, and quickly pack them up and go home!

The car came out of the basement in a circle, Li Ailan sat in the back of the car without making a sound, and Xing Xin also learned to be silent, so as not to be stared at by all directions.

"Zhuang Zhuang, are you still used to living outside alone?" Li Ailan asked slowly, not knowing what topic she wanted to start again.

"Very good, clean." Lu Jingsheng's emotions slowly rose.

"You're busy these days, we mother and daughter haven't had a good chat for a long time." Li Ailan said, "I'll stay at your place tonight, and I want to talk to you about something."

Lu Jingsheng's eyes widened - what!

Li Ailan said to Xing Xin: "You drive my car back."

Mom did it on purpose.

Lu Jingsheng held the steering wheel tightly and gritted her teeth.

Ye Xiaojun came up from the parking lot and fumbled in his pocket, only ten yuan was left.

"Hey..." It seems that taking a taxi is not enough, and I don't have my mobile phone, so I can't use the taxi app.

The wind was a bit strong, and it was even colder after coming out of the warm restaurant.

Ye Xiaojun walked for a kilometer on foot, found the bus stop, studied the route for half a day, took two buses and headed slowly towards home.

The author has something to say: A reader mentioned the question about the time point when Lu Jingsheng and Ye Xiaojun went from "being together" to "kissing".

Let’s first assume that the space where Ye Xiaojun is currently located is A, and the space where Bearxxx is located is B.

Ye Xiaojun in Space A received an email from the bear kid in Space B two years ago: In Space B, Ye Xiaojun and Lu Jingsheng got together after a car accident.But in fact, Lu Jingsheng did not experience the car accident in Space A, and the two did not kiss until two years later.These two years are the time axis in space A, not in space B.In space B, Ye Xiaojun and Lu Jingsheng probably only took two days from being together to kissing.

Continue to explain according to the hypothesis in the previous paragraph: Because of the intervention of the bear child, it took two years in space A to get to the starting point of the relationship in space B two days later, just like △DEF, with D on the top and E on the left , with F on the right.The event timeline of space B is FE, but the timeline of space A is FDE.Although the route taken and the time spent are different, they finally meet at point E, which is the kissing event.

And the time of the kissing event has changed, which will inevitably lead to the difference between the events in space A and space B in the future.

I hope this explanation satisfies everyone.

If you have any questions, please continue to leave a message to communicate.
