thoughtful

The two sat down in the "old time", and the bartender had already pushed two glasses of wine up as usual.

A glass of wine and a soda, to be exact.

Yang Qili looked at the bright red liquid in front of her eyes, she was slightly lost. The bartender didn't know why, so she reminded her softly, "Miss, your wine."

Raymond was afraid that she would be emotional, so he pushed the glass back to the bartender, "Change it, we won't drink this today."

The bartender looked at them suspiciously.

Yang Qili covered the mouth of the glass with her hand, and brought the wine glass in front of her, "No, I won't change it. Just this glass."

She showed a forced smile to Raymond, like a pear blossom with its branches left after a violent storm. The petals were wet by the rain, but they still insisted not to fall.

"One last drink," she said.

Raymond had no choice but to take his own soda and smiled apologetically at the bartender.

According to Lei Meng's prediction, Yang Qili should lean on his shoulder while drinking wine and cry about her heartbreak.He sneaked a glance at Yang Qili, she was sitting upright on the seat, sipping her wine glass, her eyebrows were lowered, as if she was quietly enjoying the music in the bar, she didn't seem to be drunk at all.

"You say that the beauty of a person is serious, and that two people can be together is fate..."

Lei Meng remembered that when he accompanied Song Sifan last time, he was like this, and he drank a glass of blue liquid in silence.

Lei Meng has never been in love, he can't understand the feelings of Song Sifan and Yang Qili.There is no hysteria, no crying, is it possible that when you become an adult, you can't even vent your feelings properly, and you have to suppress joy or sorrow into a glass of wine and drink it down one bite at a time.

Until Yang Qili drank the Bloody Mary, she beckoned to the bartender, "Ten glasses of martinis, thank you."

"No more Bloody Marys?" the bartender asked dutifully.

"No need," she raised her head, as if explaining to the bartender, or muttering to herself, "I've had enough, it's time for a change."

The bartender quickly came over with ten martinis, lined up in a magnificent manner, and people passing by whistled.Yang Qili turned a deaf ear, raised her wine glass to Lei Meng, "Cheers."

There were no tears, but Lei Meng could see the sadness spreading from her eyes to her face.

Yang Qili was in pain, but Lei Meng herself was also in pain. This kind of pain included resistance to same-sex emotions, depression being concealed by Song Sifan, and fear of the unknown.

Song Sifan obviously has a prominent family background, but he is just an ordinary family in City B who has just paid off their mortgage.The gap between each other has become a huge gap, and Raymond is standing on the edge of the deep ditch. There is a fatal attraction at the bottom of the ditch, but reason tells him not to let himself fall.

"We changed our attitude and accepted each other, and we wronged ourselves to fulfill someone's dream..."

All kinds of emotions were intertwined and mixed together, and Lei Meng was agitated for a while. He threw down the soda water impulsively, picked up a glass of wine and touched Yang Qili.

"cheers."

Lei Meng and Yang Qili had drank many times. In the past, she either drank boldly or sipped and chanted with pleasure, but she was never drunk.This time, she seemed to be drunk before drinking it. Even though it was the best cocktail bar in city B, the liquid in her hand was so bitter that it was difficult to swallow.

Raymond wanted to comfort her, but he kept his mouth shut after trying several times.

What can be said?

It's not that you are bad, but Xu Weichen is too early.

Yang Qili is very smart, she can see Xu Yao's goodness, and quickly discovered what Xu Yao wants.Xu Yao wanted to trust him without reservation and wholeheartedly, so Yang Qili gave him all the trust, thinking that she made up for the vacancy in Xu Yao's heart.

But she never knew that the hole in Xu Yao's heart was the shape of Xu Weichen.

No matter how hard she tried to change herself, there was still a gap.

It's just falling in love with someone. If all the injuries are due to the mistakes she made, then her fault is that she was too affectionate, too focused, and decided on a path, which finally came to an end at this moment.

There is no sea and sky at the end, only someone else's HAPPYENDING.

Yang Qili was lying on the bar, her eyes were blurred, and she sang drunkenly: "I knew it was like this, it was like a dream, I wouldn't put all my love in the same place..."

It's only her own fault that she is too smart and hides it too well, she thought she could influence Xu Yao quietly, she thought she could stay by his side for a long time, he thought she was only one turn away from Xu Yao, but unexpectedly Until I have been playing a game that is destined to lose.

When Xu Weichen appeared, she was completely defeated.

What's ridiculous is that she recruited Xu Weichen in person and put her hands in front of Xu Yao.

Even fate was afraid that her fall would not be thorough enough. She thought that she was close to victory, but she was already out before she even had time to start.

Lei Meng didn't know whether to complain about Xu Yao's cruelty or to praise Xu Yao's dedication.In a scene with three people, everyone is waiting, and someone has to leave.

He thought of the question Yang Qili asked him when she took him to the bar for the first time.

"Hey, have you ever met someone like that? The kind of person who can't think about it."

"Just like me."

If you ask him again, Raymond would like to tell her: I have it too, and you are not alone.

But now he has long lost the right to comfort her, and he doesn't even dare to admit that he is actually the same as her, and was judged out by fate before he even started.

"Killy, I actually..." Raymond mustered up the courage, ready to share his struggles with those who are suffering from the same disease, "It's the same as you."

"How could you be like me..." Yang Qili gulped down her drink and replied vaguely, "You haven't worked hard yet, how can you understand the pain I'm going through with all my strength?"

Lei Meng tried to explain the reason why he didn't dare to start, but when he turned his head, he found that Yang Qili had closed her eyes and was already asleep.

Talking about not getting drunk after a thousand cups is just for the sake of staying alone and refusing to get drunk.

Now Yang Qili is completely drunk.

Lei Meng is helpless, he doesn't know Yang Qili's address, thinking about the old Lei's house where he can only sleep on the sofa, it is not suitable for him to take her back.

In desperation, Lei Meng searched through the address book and had no choice but to call Xu Yao.The phone beeped a lot before being picked up late, "Tommie, Killy was drunk...well...yes, in the 'old days'."

Not long after, Xu Yao came in his Cadillac, looked at Lei Meng, and then at the collapsed Yang Qili, without asking any questions, he stretched out his hand to help Yang Qili up, and Lei Meng hurried up to help.The two put her in the back seat of the car, Xu Yao closed the door and asked Lei Meng, "Are you coming?"

Lei Meng didn't know why, but it had become natural for him to obey Xu Yao's instructions, and he sat in the co-pilot as required.

Xu Yao stopped at a building familiarly, and the two still set up Yang Qili. Xu Yao found the key from her bag and opened the door with ease.

Ramon was shocked the moment the door opened.Although Lei Meng's bedroom was full of stuff because of the small size of Lao Lei's house, Li Yuping kept it in order.Yang Qili's boudoir, to put it bluntly, is a pig's nest.

Clothes and books were piled up on the ground, and there were seven or eight moldy boxes of instant noodles on the coffee table. Without squinting, Xu Yao cleared a passage with the toe of his shoe, and instructed Lei Meng to put Yang Qili on the sofa, turn on the air conditioner, and give her Covered with a blanket, boiled another glass of water and put it next to her.

After finishing all this, Xu Yao glanced at Lei Meng who was standing aside, and said, "Come and help."

Lei Meng finally knew why Xu Yao asked him to come with him...

Two big men help a woman who is not relatives or friends to clean up the room, thinking about it is also drunk.

Throw the clothes on the floor and the bed into the washing machine, pack the instant noodles and kitchen waste, fetch water to wipe the tables and chairs, and mop the floor.Fortunately, this is only a small single room of less than [-] square meters, and it won't take too much effort to clean it.

After Xu Yao hung up the washed clothes, Lei Meng picked up the garbage bag, and the two went downstairs one after the other.

Xu Yao walked towards the Cadillac, and Lei Meng followed behind slowly. Seeing that Xu Yao opened the car door and was about to get in and leave, he blurted out, "Tommie!"

Xu Yao held on to the car door and turned back.

Raymond looked at his ignorant side face and wanted to ask, do you know that she has loved you for a long time?

But he didn't ask.

His throat moved, and he said hoarsely, "It's okay."

But Xu Yao seemed to know what he wanted to say, he lowered his head and lit a cigarette, "You saw her home."

Raymond thought of the messy room and didn't know what he meant, "Hmm..."

"You know, Killy is from City B." Breathing out a mouthful of white mist, Xu Yao looked up at Yang Qili's dimly lit room, "Have you ever thought about it? Why doesn't she live with her parents, she wants to come out alone live?"

"why?"

Xu Yao didn't answer.

Lei Meng recalled the days when Yang Qili followed Xu Yao and worked overtime day and night, "For work?"

Xu Yao took the cigarette in his hand and said in a low voice, "She's a girl, she's not worth it."

Whether it is worth it or not should be decided by the person concerned, right?Lei Meng thought of Song Sifan's treatment of Li Keran, and suddenly wanted to ask him, is it worth it?

"You should..." Raymond stopped talking.What should be?Reject early?Yang Qili didn't even mention it, why did Xu Yao refuse?

Lei Meng lowered his head, unable to find any reason to blame Xu Yao, finally he said, "You should have gone to City A earlier..."

Since Xu Weichen is in City A, why don't you go back and look for him?

Xu Yao stubbed out the cigarette butt, Lei Meng couldn't see his expression clearly in the dark night.

"I didn't dare to do it before, but now I don't need it."

The author has something to say: Raymond stands on the edge of the deep ditch, and rice cake stands on the edge of the curry pot.
