Atypical Cafe Love

Not only the two of them were in the concert hall, but also the staff of the Provincial Theater were watching.Chen Songmao reminded twice that the strings were broken when Assistant Zhuo was playing. There was no fault at all. Song Mao came to change the strings, and then continued to tune.

Assistant Zhuo had to discuss other matters with the theater staff. Chen Songmao packed his things and went out first. Just about to go down the steps, he suddenly saw a familiar figure coming up from the bottom of the steps. Go forward: "Why are you here?"

"I came here to buy books. I happened to be on the way, so I stopped by to see you tune the piano." Ning Siqin said, "I didn't expect you to move so fast, and you have already finished tuning. Did it go well?"

"To be polite, I'd better not say anything." Chen Songmao slightly lowered his voice.Ning Siqin laughed: "It seems that it is not going well. Is your hand okay?"

Chen Songmao gave him a questioning look.Ning Siqin said: "When I unscrewed the lid of the vacuum flask yesterday, did I see that you were in pain? How are you today?"

While talking, Ning Siqin took out a bag of books, took out a tube of ointment and handed it to him.Chen Songmao's heart has already softened into a puddle of water, although it is not a pleasant thing to tune the piano and break the strings, but with Ning Siqin's concern, his unhappiness has long since disappeared: "It's just a pain, you bother. "

The two had already walked to the parking lot while talking. Chen Songmao unlocked the car door, and Ning Siqin got into the passenger seat first.Before he opened the door and sat in, he glanced at the theater door one last time, and saw that Assistant Zhuo had also come out—but he didn't seem to go out, just stood on the top of the steps and looked in their direction?

Chen Songmao was slightly puzzled, but the entrance of the theater was backlit from his direction, and he was not like Ning Siqin who wore sunglasses and was blinded by the dazzling sunlight.When he drove past the entrance of the theater, he took another look, and Assistant Zhuo had already turned his back on his back—probably just waiting for someone.

He sent Ning Siqin downstairs, then stopped the car, and did not drive into the underground parking lot: "Go back first, I still have something to do, go out for a while."

"I remember you deliberately turned down other piano tuning appointments this afternoon?" Ning Siqin asked with raised eyebrows.

"It was rejected, but I didn't expect it to end earlier, just to deal with other things." Chen Songmao said.Ning Siqin asked: "What's the matter?"

"It hasn't been decided yet, so let me keep it a secret." Chen Songmao smiled, "When I have thought it over and the matter is finalized, I will explain it to you in detail."

Ning Siqin pursed his lips in dissatisfaction, but didn't continue to say anything.Chen Songmao paused, and asked: "Not in a good mood these days? Are you too tired from rehearsal?"

"Maybe." Ning Siqin said vaguely, "It's always annoying for everyone to adjust to new songs."

He was wearing sunglasses, and Chen Songmao couldn't see his expression clearly, so he just said softly: "Don't be too tired. I'll come back from shopping tonight. What do you want to eat?"

Ning Siqin didn't even think about it, and ordered two dishes casually - in this case, either he wanted to eat it for a long time, or he didn't think about it seriously at all.Chen Songmao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you tired of my cooking?"

"No." Ning Siqin looked at him, as if he just came back to his senses at this moment, "It's just——what I really want to eat is your mushroom pizza, and I'm afraid it will be too troublesome for you to make it now, so I just said two things casually." .”

"Just forgive me for this." Chen Songmao was slightly relieved, and smiled, "If you really want to eat, you can find some time and bring a few pizza crusts home, and I will make them on Thursday and Friday .”

In the next few days, Chen Songmao did not contact Assistant Zhuo again.He has never been a small-minded person. Many things pass as they pass, and he doesn't hold grudges.But for some reason, until noon on Monday, when he walked into the gate of Yayun and looked around to find Su Lanya, the discomfort that Assistant Zhuo had brought to him still vaguely remained.

If Chen Songmao is described as a "gentleman" by his friends, it is only because of his calmness, honesty, tolerance and other qualities, Su Lanya is a gentleman who really walked out of an ancient book, as gentle as jade, with impeccable temperament, words and deeds —It happens to be gay.Back then when his sexual orientation was revealed, many girls were disheartened and even hated because of love.Su Lanya's family is a real scholarly family, and their ideas are relatively conservative, not as open-minded as Chen Songmao's parents.After some ups and downs, and borrowing from Chen Songmao the materials he had sorted out in the past, the elders of the Su family finally recognized that the matter of sexual orientation was irreversible. The object of communication, otherwise they will never be at ease.

In desperation, Su Lanya approached Chen Songmao and asked him to try dating with her.

Originally, they just admired each other's behavior, and they were friends of gentlemen.Su Lanya was out of helplessness; firstly, Chen Songmao didn't have a favorite person, and secondly, he also wanted to try the feeling of interacting with men, so he agreed.At that time, they had already graduated, and they both planned to stay in City C, so they rented a house and lived together, living together for two years.In the past two years, they have also been working hard to play a qualified image of lovers, comforting each other when they are down, and it is also the first time they have fumbled to third base.But no matter how hard they tried, neither of them had any love. In the end, they both felt that the other party might be more suitable to be a like-minded friend and roommate than a lover.

After living together for two years, Chen Songmao successfully became a teacher and moved back to city A to start tuning pianos. Although the two of them didn't say it explicitly, their relationship tacitly returned to the level of ordinary friends.Three years later, Chen Songmao received a call from Su Lanya—he finally met true love.

After undergoing a physical examination, clearly separating the money and money, and agreeing on the caliber of explanation to the outside world, the two "peacefully broke up".Three years later, Chen Songmao met Ning Siqin in Yayun.

Thinking of Ning Siqin, he couldn't help smiling, walked inside and searched, and finally found two people sitting in a small compartment. Although it was a four-seater private room, they had an empty seat on one side. Two people are sitting close to each other on the same side: one is a foreigner with brown hair and natural curly hair, looking young and full of vigor; the other is only wearing a solid-color shirt and trousers, with a short trench coat draped over the back of the chair, However, every gesture, every word and every action reveals a gentle and calm demeanor.Chen Songmao has only seen this one who can wear the most ordinary clothes with his own aura to look like a long gown of a literati in the Republic of China.He stepped forward and greeted, "Lan Ya, long time see you."

"Songmao, long time no see." Su Lanya smiled and stood up to greet him.The foreign brother beside him also stood up, shook hands with Chen Songmao, and said hello in a little unfamiliar Chinese.Su Lanya rang the bell to greet the waiter, and said with a smile: "Jack has learned Chinese very quickly, and now his Chinese name is Su Jie, Wei Jie's Jie, you can call him Chinese name."

Jack's Chinese is still relatively unfamiliar. Chen Songmao tried to talk to him a few words, and found that he understood well, but it was a bit difficult to find the right words to express. From time to time, there would be word substitutions and word order reversals that Chen Songmao could not understand at all. Su Lanya was required to assist in translation, so he ended up listening more and speaking less.When the waiter delivered the menu, Chen Songmao asked, "Are you coming back to visit relatives this time? Or have you decided to live in China for a long time?"

"Jack came back to China to live with me." Su Lanya said with a smile.

"I have always felt that if you study Chinese classical music, going abroad will inevitably affect your development." Chen Songmao said.

"You always have to try his living environment before you can make a decision."

While they were talking, they were flipping through the recipes. The waiter girl who was waiting at the table might rarely see foreigners. She stared at Jack curiously for a long time. He peeked out of the corner of his eye.After ordering the dishes, she took away the recipes, Su Lanya asked: "I remember you have a new boyfriend? What kind of person are you?"

"He..." Chen Songmao couldn't help but smile, "He is a very good person. I can't describe it. Let's meet someday. I don't know how to say how good he is."

"When I fell in love with Jack three years ago, you still laughed at me and said that you had never seen me like this." Su Lanya laughed, "Now it seems that this has also been retribution? - I am very happy for you, Song Mao."

At the same time, Ning Siqin received a call at the door of his house.

He was busy digging out the keys, but he didn't answer it for a while, the phone rang relentlessly until the second time he picked it up, and laughed as soon as he heard it: "Sister, yes, I know about it, he told me in advance... ..."

The other party said something again, his expression changed suddenly, and the blood on his face disappeared in an instant: "This is impossible! Can you see clearly?"

"...It's him?" He paused, and when he spoke again, his voice was already trembling, and he stretched out a hand unconsciously to hold the marble countertop at the door. The small glass bowl that was used to hold the key slammed into pieces on the ground, but he didn't seem to notice it at all: "Did you see clearly? How is it possible?...Are you sure that Ziyun saw him? How could Ziyun Know him?!"

The opposite said a long string.Ning Siqin was listening, then hung up abruptly, and slammed the phone on the table.He finally recovered his senses and looked at the shards of glass under his feet, then turned his gaze to the room.

His house is no longer what it used to be. The books belonging to Chen Songmao are piled up on the corner of the coffee table, a small piano model is placed in the corner for decoration, and there are several long perfume lilies in the big vase in the corner, half-opened and half-opened. Thank you, he bought it with Chen Songmao last time on a whim.No matter how you look at it, this is a room full of warmth.

However, at this moment Ning Siqin scanned the entire room slowly, but his eyes were full of bewilderment and panic.

The author has something to say: There will be a side story from Ning Siqin's perspective in this paragraph, so please let me know in advance.
