Old man, what are you looking at?

After the summer vacation, only a small number of students in the whole school did not leave due to various reasons.Lu An didn't go home and stayed here. He found a part-time job during the summer vacation and worked as a waiter in a small bar not far from the school. It was a clean bar. People usually came to drink and chat after dark. Occasionally, someone will come to the stage to sing and sing. It's not very noisy, and it's a very suitable place to relax.Lu An stayed in the dormitory all day because it was too hot during the day, went out to work at night, and didn't return to the dormitory until the next morning.

During working hours, I also met all kinds of people. Lu An's temperament is calmer, and his appearance is more pleasing. The boss and other seniors who work with him also take good care of him.

In the early hours of the morning, Lu An was busy delivering wine to the guests. He always felt that someone was staring at him all night. When he turned around to look for it, he disappeared. Just when Lu An wondered if he was too sensitive, he finally found the line of sight. source.While delivering wine to the booth in the farthest corner, he discovered that Li Qi was sitting there with some people he didn't know.Lu An calmly put down the wine on the tray. "Please use it slowly." After finishing speaking, he put away the plate and walked away.

Around four o'clock, there were only a few scattered tables left in this bar.In the booth where Li Qi was, he was the only one left sitting there.After a busy night, Lu An finally got some free time, and found that Li Qi was still sitting there with no intention of leaving, so he greeted the boss and sat down opposite him.

"Why are you here?" Li Qi turned off the phone screen, "Come and play with some friends. Do you work here?" "Well, you are also idle during the holidays." "Tired every day?" "It's okay, It’s busy during peak hours. Are you still going home?” Li Qi replied irrelevantly, “What time do you get off work?” Lu An took out his pocket to check the time, only to realize that he forgot to bring his mobile phone after changing clothes. "Get off work at 06:30, but usually there are no people around at five o'clock." "Then I'll wait for you, I just happened to go back to the dormitory for something." Lu An looked him straight in the eye to tell whether what he said was true or not, and he didn't dodge it , The two looked at each other for a few seconds, "Okay, then you sit down first, and if you are sleepy, go to sleep for a while, and I will call you when I am done."

When Lu An saw off the last group of guests, he passed by the booth when he came back, and saw Li Qi leaning back on the sofa with his eyes closed, wondering if he had fallen asleep.When everything is tidied up and changed into my own clothes, it is already time to get off work.Walked over and patted Li Qi on the shoulder to wake him up, "Wake up." Li Qi rubbed his eyes and sat up, "It's over?" "Well, let's go, it's almost seven o'clock." "Let's go." Coming to school soon When I saw a small stall selling breakfast on the side of the road, Li Qi suggested to eat something before going back. Lu An was also so hungry that his chest was stuck to his back after a busy night. He rubbed his belly and replied, "Okay." "Want to eat What?" Lu An thought for a while and replied, "Go eat wontons." Li Qi nodded in agreement, and turned into a wonton shop that he often goes to.Just about to enter the door, Lu An suddenly stopped and asked, "Do you eat pancakes?" Li Qi nodded, and Lu An said to him, "I'm going to buy pancakes. You go in and order first. I want chicken with mushrooms."

When the wontons were served, Lu An just came back with two pancakes in his hand.Li Qi took the portion that Lu An handed over, and it felt much thicker than usual in his hand. After he took a bite, he found that it was rich in contents. It was grilled sausage and fish balls, and maybe an extra egg was added. Li Qi had never eaten like this before.Lu An ate a mouthful of pancakes and wontons, Li Qi watched him eat and inexplicably felt that this simple breakfast was delicious. "It's so refreshing to eat with so many things rolled up." Lu An swallowed the food in his mouth, "Yes, I think there will be a sense of satisfaction when your mouth is full of food. You can try it too. " Hearing what he said, Li Qi stuffed his mouth full of doubts, huh?It seems that is really the case.The two of them ate happily, and had a great breakfast.

"Are you still recruiting people?" "Huh? What?" "Is the bar still recruiting people?" "Should they be recruiting, what's the matter?" "I want to go too." Then I'll give you the phone number of the boss and you can ask about it. "Well, don't get me wrong, I'm not interested in staying at home. I'm disgusted by my mother every day, but you seem to be doing pretty well." "Oh, you can call and ask." "

Li Qi moved very quickly, and when Lu An went to work the next day, he was already wearing the waiter's clothes and studying at the bar.Seeing Lu An's arrival, the boss called him over and told him, "I heard from Li Qi that the two of you are classmates?" "Well, yes." "Then you are responsible for taking him. It's more convenient to get to know each other and communicate." "Okay, I see." Saying goodbye to the boss, he went to find Li Qi after changing in the dressing room at the back.

On the first day of work, Lu An didn't let him do too complicated things, he mainly just watched from the sidelines.It was the first time for Li Qi to work the night shift, and he rarely stayed up so late. When he was about to leave work, Lu An felt that he was so sleepy that his reactions were a little slow. "Are you tired?" "Fortunately, it's mainly because of sleepiness." "Go to sleep as soon as you get back from work today, and you'll be fine after a little adjustment of your biological clock in two days." Li Qi rubbed his head, "I really admire you for being able to endure it. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't even be able to last today." Lu An replied nonchalantly, "If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't have come here."

The rain in summer always comes suddenly, a thunderstorm rang, and the rain poured down, blocking the tables that hadn't had time to leave in the bar, and no one came back for a whole night.The guests were all drinking wine and discussing when the rain would stop.

The boss and several waiters were also idly chatting around the bar.Li Qi has been here for more than a week and has become familiar with everyone. When he saw some musical instruments on the stage, he asked the boss, "Brother Qin, can the guitar over there be used?" "Yes, what's the matter? Are you going to play a song?" "Then... come a song?" "Go ahead. You can do it yourself." The boss saw that everyone had nothing to do and agreed.

Li Qi walked to the stage, picked up the guitar, played it skillfully, tried to pluck the strings with a pick, and smooth notes came out from the speaker. "Ahem, hello, hello." Li Qi tried the microphone, "Next, I'll give you the song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky"." Under the light, Li Qi's earnest expression was full of magic, and Lu An felt a little disbelief in his heart. Perceived throbbing.

At the end of the song, everyone applauded, and the guests at several tables also cheered.The boss asked them, "Who wants to go up and sing, be conscious." Everyone shook their heads shyly, "Look at each of you, and then look at Li Qi, go up and sing, what's the matter?" Li Qi booed on the stage to call Lu An to come on stage, Lu An quickly waved his hands, not because he was shy, but because everyone who had heard Lu An sing would give a very pertinent comment: Others need money to sing, but Lu An sings to death.Everyone thought that he was shy, and he talked about everything, dragging and pulling people onto the stage.

Lu An stood on the stage and looked around, "Please cover your ears." Everyone was dumbfounded by his words.Li Qi accompanied him at the back, and the prelude was an old song "You at the Same Table". Under Li Qi's reminder, Lu An opened his mouth and sang.Before the first sentence was finished, Li Qi almost broke the string.The people below were stunned, and then burst out laughing.

The first sentence has eight characters, none of which are in tune.Lu An put down the microphone with some embarrassment, "I won't sing, you must let me sing. This time it's over." Li Qi laughed out of breath from behind, and gave him a thumbs up.As soon as Lu An walked to the bar, he heard the boss joke, "Little Lu, who did you learn your singing skills from? Isn't it inherited from your ancestors?" Everyone laughed again after hearing this.

After everyone had played around, the rain outside was much lighter, and the guests paid their bills and left while the rain was light.Looking at the situation, the boss estimated that no one would come, so he asked everyone to leave work early.The two of them saw that the time was only two o'clock, and it was not good to go back and disturb the auntie who was in charge of the dormitory to rest.I greeted the boss and asked them to stay in the store until dawn before going back.

Everyone left, the boss went back to the upstairs room, and the two of them were left on the first floor. They simply tidied up and lay face to face on the couch.Already used to sleeping during the day, the two of them still couldn't fall asleep for a while.After a long time, I heard Li Qi ask him, "Are you asleep?" Lu An replied with his eyes closed, "No." "Why don't you go home during the holidays? Ah, I just ask casually, and it's okay not to answer." "It's nothing, I just don’t want to go back.” “Does your family agree? Don’t you worry?” Lu An froze for a moment, “Don’t worry.” Then, as if to ease the atmosphere, he smiled and continued, “Maybe I let you Don't worry." Li Qi saw that he didn't want to answer, so he didn't continue to ask, and found another topic to divert.

Li Qi intuitively felt that there should be something wrong with Lu An's family, if he didn't want to talk about it, then he didn't ask, and he would naturally say what he wanted to say.The one-month vacation is neither short nor long, and it will end soon.

We saw each other every day during a holiday, and the gap between the two of them was almost eliminated.Lu An himself didn't realize that he was no longer as repulsive to Li Qi as before. Li Qi finally felt some hope. He decided not to break this stability and let Lu An accept him slowly. The road is very long. .

God is always like this, I can't see others getting better.In the middle of the night, Li Qi received a call from his mother. The person on the phone spoke the most unfamiliar words in his most familiar voice, "Qi Qi, I divorced your father, who are you with?" Li Qi felt himself There was a moment of hypoxia, and it was only when consciousness returned that I asked with difficulty, "When did it happen?" "Yesterday, the formalities were completed. Your father won't let me tell you, but I don't think you are a child anymore. "

Li Qi didn't listen to what he said later, he didn't recover until he hung up the phone, he went home without even attending the afternoon class, and didn't say anything, the people in the dormitory didn't know what he was doing .Lu An went to class in the afternoon and didn't find out that Li Qi hadn't arrived until the roll call. He sent him a message but didn't receive a reply for a long time.Lu An just thought that he was still sleeping in the dormitory and didn't come to class.

After class for an afternoon, when I went back to the dormitory, I ran into Ma Nan in Li Qi's dormitory and found out that Li Qi answered a phone call at noon and left without saying anything, as if something happened to his family.Lu An was worried for a moment, and sent him two more messages, but there was still no reply.

When it got dark, Lu An's phone vibrated, picked it up and saw that it was Li Qi, and after connecting, "Hello," "Lu An, my parents are divorced." His voice was a little choked, "I want to see you." Lu An asked, "Where are you?" "In Muchen." It was the bar where they worked before. "wait for me."

Lu An hurried out and took a taxi to Mu Chen.When he arrived, he was drinking in the corner.When Li Qi saw Lu An in front of him, he showed a bleak smile, "Here we come." Lu An sat down opposite him and took a drink from the glass in front of him. "Can drinking solve the problem?" "Yes, it can't solve the problem, but at least alcohol will make me feel less uncomfortable." As he spoke, he raised his hand to call the waiter to bring the wine, but Lu An didn't stop him.

When the wine came, Lu An poured a glass for each of them. "Tell me, what's going on." Li Qi drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, his eyes were wet, and he didn't know whether it was the wine or his emotions.

"My parents are divorced. I always thought they had a very good relationship and were very loving. I never saw them quarreling. I didn't expect that they were always acting for me. They have been separated for two years. They said that they were afraid of the impact. I took the college entrance examination, so I haven't gone through the divorce procedure, and I'm like a fool, I didn't find out at all. Divorce if you want to divorce, why can't you tell me, what are you doing together so reluctantly? It's for my own good, why? Can two people who were once in love come to this point? Lu An, I feel bad." After saying that, he lay down on the table and began to cry.Lu An looked at his head lying on the table, didn't say anything, just let him cry and vent his sadness, and reached out to touch his head in a strange way to comfort him.
