Difficult to attack

In the evening, the two who had been bored at home all day finally went out and searched for the address marked on the circus ticket.

It's just that the circus is not as lively as expected. Although it is still such a classic and huge hexagonal tent, although there are still colorful and even messy ribbons and balloons hanging around, there are not many spectators.

Xiao Feng originally wanted to take Ye Ran away, saying that he didn't want to watch such a circus.

It's just that Ye Ran is holding the ticket, and feels that he still holds the obsession with Ah Ming in his heart, so he has to go in and see what he says.

In the tent, some people were already in the auditorium. Xiao Feng also led Ye Ran to find a row of chairs near the front and sat down. The location coordinates marked on the ticket were obviously a decoration because of the scarcity of the audience.

It's just that the circus is still playing music relentlessly, as if it's overwhelming and recreating some unimportant atmosphere.

The lights gradually dimmed, and the spotlight became the focal point on the stage, so Xiao Feng changed from holding Ye Ran's hand to blatantly hugging Ye Ran's shoulder.

Ye Ran turned around and waited for him to take a look, but this guy hummed a little tune and didn't look at him at all, with a standard look of a local hooligan: Brother is so capricious, what can you do to me!

Ye Ran had no choice but to focus her eyes on the stage again, and couldn't help complaining in her heart: "Ah Ming is really, how can you take a girl to see a circus on the first date?"

The show is simply the same, even boring, a clown who is not funny at all is grinning pretending to be happy, doing something that he thinks is funny.

Of course, this process did win some laughter from the audience. For example, the clown who threw the ball should have caught the dropped ball smoothly, but he tripped and even fell over by the falling ball in a hurry.

This was obviously not a funny move intentional by the clown, and it was easy to see the embarrassment from his face covered with scarlet oil paint that was almost melted by sweat.

And the audience laughed, sarcastically of course.

But the clown could only pick up the ball in a panic, falling down in sweat and hitting the stage, making an inaudible heartbreaking sound.

It's just such a thing to laugh at. The mocker laughs loudly, enjoying the supreme sense of superiority, but being ridiculed can only be unknown, and even if he is unwilling, he is powerless to resist.

But the people who laughed, obviously their patience had reached the limit. After all, the clown on stage had made the same mistake many times, just like a joke that has been heard too many times, it is no longer funny.

So some of the audience left angrily, and some cheered and then didn't look back.There were not many people in the auditorium, but in a blink of an eye there were only two Ye Ran left.

Seeing this, the clown stopped performing and fled to the backstage in a particularly embarrassing state.

"Let's go?" When Xiao Feng said this, he took the opportunity to kiss Ye Ran on the cheek.

Sure enough, a rogue is still a rogue!

"In any case, it's the ticket Ah Ming gave me. Let's treat it as fulfilling his wish. Why don't we go backstage and have a look?"

Xiao Feng naturally has no objection, for him now, Ye Ran is everything.

The two walked into the backstage, only to see the clown just now slumped on the floor, the oil paint on his face hadn't been cleaned off, like a face that was about to melt.

"Excuse me..." Ye Ran cautiously probed.

"The circus is getting dirty, I'm sorry the show won't continue." The clown's voice turned out to be a nice baritone, but he rudely interrupted Ye Ran's just-started inquiry.

...Ye Ran was silent for a while, and Zuo An tried his best to apply Zuo An's words of comfort to him when he lost his love: "Oh, it's not a big deal, if the circus turns bad, you can start again, there is no grass anywhere in the world. "

Wait, how strange is this sentence used here... Ye Ran, who is off-line, what do you want me to do to save you, Xiao Feng silently supported his forehead.

Sure enough, Ye Ran received the clown's resentful gaze, but then the clown let out a long sigh.

"The circus has been in recession for a long time. Not many people watch it, and not many people are willing to participate. I, a half-baked head, can't even learn to simply throw a ball."

Ye Ran couldn't get in the conversation for a while, but he didn't expect the clown to be the team leader.

"When things come to this, I'm not afraid to tell you that I've been in debt for a long time. I remember when I was a child, the circus was so majestic, it was so colorful, and I finally borrowed money everywhere to start the circus. Who knows I didn’t earn any money, but instead had conflicts with my family.”

The clown leader seemed to be talking about his own thoughts, and shook his head with a wry smile: "My husband and I have changed from quarreling every day to she running away from home and not returning at night."

Xiao Feng, who had been silent all this time, suddenly opened his mouth: "But now you are so decadent, what kind of man are you?"

The head of the group was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes became gentle again: "It's hard to make a living. It's really not easy. My wife is clamoring to divorce me. She said she will marry a man who is richer than me."

The head of the group, Tao Tao, stood up unsteadily: "Why don't you drink a few glasses of wine with me, who is about to become a bachelor, and we hit it off."

At this moment, the head of the regiment seemed to see through Hongchen's posture, but from his silently clenched fist, which he never let go, it can be seen how unwilling he was in his heart when he said these words.

Kind as Ye Ran, naturally agreed.

So the three of them sat on the edge of the stage again, drinking beer that was almost all of the head of the team, glass by glass.

No matter how brilliant the lights of the circus are, they cannot conceal the deepest loneliness and desolation in the heart after all.
