Girlfriends

Independent film director Lin Fang's new work "The Twilight" was released in theaters across the country in a low-key manner.

During work breaks, Zong Ying saw this message on an inconspicuous corner of the entertainment section of a certain website.

Click the title to enter the details page, and there are only a few lines of text, not even a picture.

"The End of the Year" does not have any big-name actors, and there are not even a few familiar names in the entire cast. In addition, as a standard heroine, the leading actress is an out-and-out pure newcomer. It's not that Lin Fang has accumulated three or five works before, maybe he can't even get this weak sense of existence.

I casually opened a movie website and checked the movie schedules for the last few days. Sure enough, as expected, there were no more than [-] shows in theaters in the whole city every day, and almost all of them were during "non-popular" time slots.

Zong Ying is very interested in this movie, and Xin Dao just finds a theater not far from home to watch it after get off work. As for the time, let it be later.

So I quickly found the nearest movie theater, checked the show schedule, and there was one that started at 8:45 pm.

very perfect.

Zong Ying turned her head to look at Ye Xiaohan, just about to tell her about going to the movies tonight, but at this moment, her cell phone rang suddenly.

Only then did she notice that it was already lunch break before she knew it.

And on the screen of the phone, where the caller ID was, the word "Lu Fan" was flashing.

It seems that I haven't contacted him for a while, Zong Ying hesitated a little, and pressed the answer button, "Hello?"

Lu Fan's voice was as gentle as ever and with a slight smile, "The "Summer" mentioned in the last chat is released, do you have time to watch it together? I just checked the release schedule, and it seems a bit late , if you don't mind, we can make an appointment not far away, and I'll take you back after watching it?"

Zong Ying didn't even remember when she accidentally mentioned it to him, but he didn't expect him to remember... For Lu Fan, she always felt a vague regret in her heart. After careful consideration, there was no reason, but it really existed. said, "Well... I..."

Lu Fan waited patiently for 30 seconds, still well-trained, "Sorry, maybe I was a little abrupt, if it's inconvenient..."

"No," the voice replied before he realized it, "I just think it's a coincidence that I'm watching the rehearsal time. Hmm... It's better to hit the sun than to choose a date, or tonight?"

"Okay, okay!" Different from the gentleness of the past, Lu Fan's voice suddenly had a little more childlike joy and excitement, "Why don't you just have dinner together first?!"

"it is good."

The two set a time for tonight, Zong Ying put down her phone, and belatedly realized that only she and Ye Xiaohan were left in the office, and everyone else should have gone out for lunch.

Their lunch today was made by Ye Xiaohan early in the morning, and it was served in a glass lunch box, just waiting for it to be heated up at noon.

Ye Xiaohan was still looking at the computer screen in front of her, very focused.

Zong Ying silently took lunch for the two of them and heated it up in the microwave in the tea room.

What she didn't notice was that Ye Xiaohan kept her hands on the keyboard, but she didn't make any movements.

It only takes a few minutes to heat up a lunch. Zong Ying quickly walked back with the lunch box, and waved her hand in front of Ye Xiaohan's eyes, "Little Ye Zi? Take a break and eat!"

Ye Xiaohan came back to her senses and smiled reluctantly.

This time, Zong Ying finally noticed that something was wrong with her, "What's wrong with you, little leaf? You don't look very well, are you feeling unwell?" As she spoke, she habitually reached out to check the temperature of her forehead, but nothing happened.

Ye Xiaohan smiled slightly and shook her head, "It's okay, maybe I slept late last night and had a little headache, I think it will be fine after drinking some coffee later, don't be nervous."

Zong Ying put the lunch box in front of her, and handed over the tableware, "Then hurry up and eat, there is still time to take a nap after eating."

Ye Xiaohan took the things in her hand, silently ate two mouthfuls of food, and asked casually, "Whose phone was just now?"

Zong Ying didn't mean to hide anything, "Lu Fan, invite me to watch a movie tonight."

Ye Xiaohan nodded, "Oh."

For a while, neither of them said anything.

However, Zong Ying suddenly remembered that morning, she and Xiao Yezi were watching a movie at home, which happened to be Lin Fang's movie, and at that time they agreed to watch "The Twilight" together when it was released...

Thinking of this, it is inevitable that I feel a little guilty, "Little Ye Zi..."

Ye Xiaohan's hand holding the chopsticks froze slightly, "Huh?"

Zong Ying thought for a while, "I made an appointment with Lu Fan for the "Summer" at [-] o'clock tonight, or you can go with me, last time I said to watch it together when it is released, and anyway, it's at our house Cinema nearby."

Unexpectedly, Ye Xiaohan just smiled and shook her head, "I have a headache, and I want to go home and go to bed early after get off work. And...the world between the two of you, I can't be a light bulb, right?"

For no reason, Zong Ying felt anxious, but couldn't say a word, "...that's fine."

It was rare for a lunch to be finished quietly, and colleagues came back one after another. Ye Xiaohan got up and went to the tea room to pour herself a cup of coffee, and drank it in one gulp.

There are fresh beans in the coffee machine, lightly roasted Yirgacheffe, the special sour taste makes Ye Xiaohan feel a little uncomfortable.

After a long time, she walked to the faucet aside and carefully cleaned the cup.

Then, after adjusting his expression, he returned to his station and sat down.

Her expression was controlled very calmly, but her slightly trembling fingertips were silently betraying her emotions...

Soon it was time to get off work, and Zong Ying's cell phone rang again in good time. It was Lu Fan who told her that he would pick her up at the magazine office later, and there was still about 10 minutes away.

In just a few minutes of their phone call, Ye Xiaohan had already shut down the computer silently, packed up her things, mouthed "I'm going back first" to Zong Ying, and left office.

Zong Ying's first reaction was to catch up, but she stopped abruptly after a while. She laughed secretly that she was a little strange, and tried to turn her attention back to Lu Fan on the other side of the phone, "Okay, see you later."

The dinner was very enjoyable, and "The End of the Year" is also a good film that can make people fully immersed.

however……

There always seems to be something wrong.

Somewhere in my heart, there is always a feeling of emptiness.

Downstairs, she waved goodbye to Lu Fan, then raised her head to look at the familiar height.

For the first time, what I saw was darkness, not the warm lights that would always be waiting for me no matter how late it was.

At that moment, the empty melancholy in her heart was pushed to the extreme...
