Think childish

Three months later, Beijing Hongse.

The excitement and excitement in the middle of the night are always straightforward and exposed. All kinds of sensualists gather under the blurred and gorgeous lights, shouting for freedom and liberation. Tobacco and alcohol are the best fuels to ignite their desires. agent.

Qiu Shui silently watched the long-lost chaos in front of him.

Not far away, Gu Jia held Guoguo's face and kissed her, and said something to her in the ear, and then they separated, and Gu Jia came towards her.

"How is it?" Gu Jia sat on the chair, raised her chin at the glass of wine in her hand.

"I'm not used to it." Qiu Shui shook her head, she never liked alcohol, even if it was mixed with fruit juice.

The two were silent.

Gu Jia snapped her fingers, and the bartender quickly pushed over a glass of wine.

She drank it all in one gulp, her brows suddenly tightened and stretched comfortably: "When are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow morning." Qiu Shui replied.

Gu Jia glanced at her face and asked uncertainly, "Go to France?"

"She wants me to go to France for further studies." Qiu Shui said, without answering her question directly.

Gu Jia asked again: "When will you be back?"

Qiu Shui turned the wine glass, lowered her eyelashes, her brows and eyes were dreamlike reflected by the colorful lights above her head, she shrugged: "I don't know, maybe... I won't come back."

Gu Jia ordered another glass of wine, but drank it all in one gulp.

The atmosphere in the bar tonight was very lively, but the excitement did not include her.

"It's so lonely..." Qiu Shui sighed suddenly.

Gu Jia frowned and looked at her: "Don't make things difficult for yourself, go out to relax, and come back soon, Guoguo and I... plan to go back to our hometown next year or two."

"go back home?"

"Well, Guoguo's mother left last week. She came to the United States with the rich businessman. The two went to the United States together. Before leaving, they left a sum of money for Guoguo, saying that the two will have nothing to do in the future." Gu Jia said, "I've been in Beijing for so many years, and it's not very interesting. Anyway, she and I have no one at home now, so we both plan to find a quieter place to live our own little life." She looked back at the crowd. Jumping dance floor, "This place is too big and too small, it's uncomfortable to stay here, so let's just forget it."

Qiu Shui was in a daze, nodded for a while, and said, "It's pretty good."

It seems that tonight is not suitable for chatting. They always stop talking and suddenly become silent.

Gu Jia licked her cheeks, and suddenly laughed: "I wrote a song with the words you wrote, do you want to listen to it?"

"The words I wrote?" Qiu Shui was puzzled.

"It's just that red velvet English poem. You sat there one night and wrote it on paper. You forgot to take it away, so I put it away." Gu Jia pointed to a corner in the bar and said .

Qiu Shui didn't look in the direction of her finger, but just supported his head and thought about it for a moment.

It seems to be the case.

She nodded: "Listen."

Gu Jia jumped off the chair, and the bartender took out her electric guitar from the bar and handed it to her.

Qiushuishou propped up his chin, watching Gu Jia pass through the crowd, onto the stage, put the guitar on his back, tune it, and then straighten out the position of the microphone stand.

"The next song is a new song I wrote, "Myredvelvetgirl", my red velvet girl. Here today, I want to give it to a friend who is going to travel far away. At any time, she can see her heart clearly, and then firmly, stride towards happiness."

"Jia Jia! Jia Jia!"

"Jia Jia!"

……

Under the stage, the crowd shouted enthusiastically. Gu Jia closed her eyes and plucked the strings with her fingers. A heartbreaking, psychedelic sound suddenly came out...

……

After singing, Gu Jia opened her eyes and looked at the bar for the first time——Qiu Shui left, and the seat she sat in was empty.

She took off the electric guitar, jumped off the stage, walked through the crowd, and went straight to the remote corner opposite the stage diagonally.

"She's gone." Gu Jia said, and sat down opposite.

The glass window reflected the calm eyes of the person opposite, and there was very little smoke. Gu Jia tapped the table with her fingers, leaned closer to her upper body and looked up at her: "Qiao Zhi, did you really let her go like this?"

The excitement and hustle and bustle of the house spread here as if it was blocked by something invisible. Qiao Zhi smoked a cigarette, looked at her, and seemed to have no interest in talking.

Gu Jia looked down on her like this, sneered dejectedly and mockingly, and leaned back on the sofa.

"The song is very nice." Qiao Zhi said suddenly, put out the cigarette butt, and stood up.

Gu Jia sat without moving, and pointed to the glass of wine in front of her: "Don't you want to drink? This is her favorite cocktail."

Qiao Zhi picked up the wine glass.

Gu Jia followed her closely.

"She doesn't like any wine," she said, throwing her head back.

"gone."

……

In this world, there are countless partings and partings that happen every day. Maybe you cross a road, a couple is separated, and after another intersection, someone’s lover dies... Why is life full of pain, we still have to go to work, eat on time, Sleep because this is life.The boring and stupid life of human beings.

With so many grievances competing for beauty, to be honest, like theirs, it can be regarded as a relatively peaceful ending.

All of the above were Qiao Zhi's consolation to herself.

Half a month after Qiushui left, she moved back to Yushui Garden. It was still a small two-story bungalow in her memory, but the feeling of actually living in it became a bit subtle.

Qiao Zhi lived in this subtle feeling for another half a month. After half a month, she called Qiushui's school in France, but learned that she hadn't reported it, and the school said she couldn't be contacted. , has revoked her admission.

After Qiao Zhi hung up the phone, he called Qiushui again, and it showed that the phone was turned off.

The empty living room echoed with a dull and flat busy voice. Qiao Zhi put down the receiver, got up and went up to the second floor. After a little hesitation, he opened Qiushui's bedroom.

It was the first time in a month that no one lived in this room, and the floor-to-ceiling windows were closed tightly, making the room a bit stuffy.She looked around the room, and finally came to the desk. There was a letter on it, and the envelope was slightly dusty.

Qiao Zhi's face was calm, and it seemed that there was a hard shell on his face.This shell blocked the variables, and told her self-deception that everything was still under her control.However, her slightly trembling fingers gave away her emotions.

The snow-white letter paper was folded in three, and when it was opened, there was only an excerpted poem.

It says——

"You don't need to look for me where thousands of people are full of fiery trees and silver flowers. If you want to meet each other, all I can do is to travel long distances to return to the original." [Note]

……

She said, let's go.

Then, she really left...

***

……

Five years later.

"...What does the hospital say? Can you go see her?"

"No, it is said to be treated in isolation temporarily. Except for specific medical staff, no one can contact them. Some time ago, the news broke out that Beijing concealed cases, and now..." The person on the other end of the phone sighed, "The actual death cases The number is still increasing, and everyone is in danger now. A friend from my hospital told me that experts from the WHO arrived in Beijing yesterday and are meeting to discuss a solution, so we can only wait and see."

"Don't worry, just take care of yourself, Xiaoyan still needs you."

"I know. Sister, how is your home? Is the situation serious?"

"It's okay at home, don't worry about uncle and aunt, I'll take care of it!"

"Okay, then I'll hang up first, there's still something to do at the school."

"it is good."

……

"How is it? What does Qing Shan say?" Hong Jie asked anxiously.

Qiao Zhi slapped the sour breath in his nose and said, "The situation over there is more serious. He can't see Xiaoyan now, so he doesn't know what's going on. The postgraduate re-examination was also postponed to the end of May. He will never come back."

The house was boiling vinegar, and a strong sour smell came from the kitchen, permeating every nook and cranny. Qiao Zhi was most afraid of sourness, so he suddenly took a breath of sour breath and coughed uncomfortably.

As soon as Sister Hong heard her coughing, she immediately went to the kitchen and made a cup of Banlangen as if facing a formidable enemy.

Qiao Zhi took it over, dumbfounded: "Experts have refuted the rumors and said it's useless. If you give me more than a dozen cups a day, I can hardly eat anymore."

Sister Hong didn't budge a step: "Hurry up and drink it while it's hot."

Unable to resist her, Qiao Zhi could only pinch her nose and pour it all down.

Sister Hong said again: "It's almost noon, the person on the other side should have woken up too? I have to take a few packs of vinegar to fumigate him in the fumigation room. With his living habits, he may have raised a lot of germs in the room." here!"

Qiao Zhi looked at her flickering eyes left and right, but she didn't dare to look at her and said, she was amused in her heart, and agreed on her face: "That's right, SARS is an infectious disease, if he falls down, everyone on this floor will suffer, Sister Hong, you should do a good job and go and see him."

Li Hong couldn't tell that she was teasing him, blushed, hesitated for two seconds, and finally went out with the vinegar bag.

Luo Hai and Li Hong have gradually become acquainted with each other because they lived close to each other in recent years and often walked around each other in private.

Li Hong is small in stature and lacks strength, sometimes when she bumps into Luo Hai while climbing the stairs while shopping, the other party can't stand it, so she will take the initiative to help her carry the things upstairs.Li Hong is a kind-hearted person, and she knows how to repay her kindness. She doesn't want Luo Hai to make a living, so she always takes care of him as much as she can.

Qiao Zhi wanted to watch the fun, so she got up and walked to the door to take a peek. Just as she was about to go to Luo Hai's house to have a better look, she suddenly heard a scream coming from the room, and Luo Hai seemed to curse angrily. What, before Qiao Zhi heard it clearly, Li Hong stumbled out and ran out——

"What's wrong?" Qiao Zhi looked at her in surprise.

Li Hong was so frightened that her face turned pale. After she calmed down, her face suddenly burned again. She stammered and couldn't speak clearly: "He, he, didn't wear pants!"

"puff--"
