Meet·Lijiang

There was a loud bang, and although Zhuang Zijing was wearing earphones, she could still hear the movement at the door.

Putting down the earphones, there was still a buzzing sound in her ears. She looked at the door, but there was no movement. Just when she was about to put on the earphones, there was another loud sound from the door, which shocked her greatly.

Although it is a rented house, the occupancy rate of the whole building is not high, and the house opposite is indeed empty and unoccupied, but the security is not so bad, is there anyone who dares to break and rob in a big way?After thinking wildly for a while, Zhuang Zijing walked to the door when the third beep sounded, and saw through the cat's eyes that Yan Yu outside was beating the door vigorously with a big log in his hand.

Zhuang Zijing rushed out in a huff, she opened the door and yelled at Yan Yu who was about to continue pounding on the door, "What are you doing?"

Yan Yu was sweating profusely at this moment, and was suddenly startled by Zhuang Zijing at the door: "You..."

"What about me? Didn't I say that? I won't go out, I won't go out, I won't go out!"

Yan Yu's focus didn't seem to be here, but he still stared at Zhuang Zijing with a surprised face: "Are... all right?"

"What can I do? Don't make excuses to come to me, okay, I'm very annoying today, and I'm worried that I can't find a place to get angry!" Zhuang Zijing was really angry.When did Yan Yu become so shameless that he directly smashed the door.

Yan Yu was left outside the door by Zhuang Zijing's inexplicable anger, and it took a long time before he took a breath: "I thought something happened to you, I called you several times but didn't answer, and you didn't respond when I knocked on the door , I had no choice but to try to see if I could knock the door open."

Zhuang Zijing looked at the big wooden stick in Yan Yu's hand, and was very happy: "Miss Yan, I know that you don't work hard and don't know the five grains, but I really didn't expect you to think that you are powerless." The eldest lady can break open the anti-theft door with a wooden stick."

Yan Yu looked at the wooden stick in his hand, then threw it aside, and quickly recovered the calm and indifferent expression on his somewhat embarrassed face: "I'm worried about you, so come and see. After all, you live outside alone , and the occupancy rate here is relatively low. In case something happens, I can use a big wooden stick as a weapon."

"If there are any bad guys, what use is your stick?!"

Yan Yu was too lazy to argue with Zhuang Zijing about the wooden stick, so he looked at her with an angry face: "Why are you so angry?"

What are you so angry about?Zhuang Zijing also wanted to ask herself.

Ever since I answered Yang Hui's call, I have been angry!And the anger is growing.This person didn't call himself for a month, and he called to see him because he wanted to go on a blind date.What kind of friend is such a friend? !

However, what does this have to do with Yan Yu?And is such a trivial matter really worth being so angry?After taking a long breath, Zhuang Zijing finally restrained her desire to mock Yan Yu, thinking that she made such a fuss for her own safety, and it was indeed because she was in a bad mood. Listening to rock with earphones, I didn't hear the phone ringing, now I yelled at her a few words, my heart is not so blocked, but I feel a little tired: "Okay, come in and sit for a while."

Yan Yu entered the room, and Zhuang Zijing gave her a bottle of water: "I didn't call for water, and I didn't boil the water, so you can just do it."

Yan Yu put the water on the coffee table: "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Zhuang Zijing sat on the sofa, thinking of her agitated emotions just now, there was indeed something wrong.

"Who messed with you?!" Yan Yu asked.

Seeing that Zhuang Zijing didn't speak, Yan Yu said again: "How about I treat you to a barbecue and two bottles of beer, and you'll feel better after drinking it."

Staying in the room also felt boring, so Zhuang Zijing finally agreed to Yan Yu's invitation.

In consideration of drinking, Yan Yu didn't drive. The two left the community and walked along the deserted and empty street for a while, then stopped in front of a night barbecue stall.

After ordering some food and two bottles of wine, Yan Yu said to Zhuang Zijing who had been silent all this time: "Just tell me what you're unhappy about."

"when are you going back?"

Yan Yu smiled bitterly: "You just expect me to go back?"

"Of course. Even as ordinary friends, I don't think it's appropriate for you to wander outside like this regardless of work." Zhuang Zijing said seriously.

"Then when are you going to follow me back?" Yan Yu looked at Zhuang Zijing.

"There's no need to talk about what you said." Zhuang Zijing didn't want to dwell on this issue.

Yan Yu looked at Zhuang Zijing seriously, and asked after a while, "Do you have someone you like?"

Zhuang Zijing originally wanted to deny it, but Yang Hui's appearance suddenly appeared in her mind. Although she and she had nothing, and the two of them couldn't talk about that kind of liking, but thinking that Yan Yu could give up her heart, Zhuang Zijing gritted her teeth , nodded.

"Isn't that Xiao Yang who repairs motorcycles?" Yan Yu doesn't know Yang Hui's name yet, but when she was researching Zhuang Zijing's travel notes some time ago, she noticed which Xiao Yang's car dealership, and she mentioned this person in her travel notes. Been here more than once.

"Yes." Zhuang Zijing admitted.

Yan Yu laughed: "How is it possible?!" She leaned slightly and stared at Zhuang Zijing: "She is a car repairer."

"Correct."

"I've seen her in cheap clothes, on a broken motorcycle, in a small town doing dirty, vulgar jobs..."

When Zhuang Zijing heard Yan Yu's comments, she interrupted her angrily: "What's wrong with cheap clothes? How many people wearing high-end clothes are just beasts in clothes. I didn't expect that after so many years, you still like to judge people by their appearance so much. Riding a broken motorcycle What's wrong with the car? I think riding a motorcycle is more comfortable than sitting in your BMW. Also, what is a dirty and vulgar job? She is a job that solves people's problems, and earns money by her own labor, no shame! "

Yan Yu stared blankly at Zhuang Zijing: "It seems that you really think she's pretty good."

"Yes, a rich second generation like you has a family business that can be inherited, but she didn't. Her parents died young, and her six relatives had no one to rely on. She relied on her hard work and wisdom to work hard to support herself and help others. I think she Such people deserve more respect.”

Yan Yu picked up the meat skewer that was delivered just now and took a tasteless mouthful: "You should wake up."

"Maybe you should be more sober." Zhuang Zijing's mood calmed down a lot.

Yan Yu poured Zhuang Zijing a glass of wine: "Isn't it because you think you have similarities, so you are connected by fate?"

Zhuang Zijing didn't speak.

"Her parents died young, and you lost your father a long time ago. Having a mother is not much better than having no mother. You study hard, work hard, be self-reliant and become the main source of income for the family. Do you feel that when you see her? See some shadows of yourself? Seeing her so free, aren't you full of longing?"

Zhuang Zijing thought of Yang Hui in the small wooden building, living a lively and happy life. For that simple and free life, she couldn't say that she didn't yearn for that simple and free life in her heart.

"But that's not love." Yan Yu said: "People are always easily attracted by the protagonist in their life that they yearn for, but after all, it's only because they yearn for that environment and state, not that person. Is that person worthy of love? ?This question is often ignored, just like many people like me, in fact they like Yan’s heir, like having enough money, honor and power, like the state that can despise most things, but they don’t like me people."

As Yan Yu said, he was silent for a while, and took a sip from his wine glass: "Many people ask me why I can't forget you. It's because you once asked me to give up Yan's family and take you away, and giving up Yan's family means giving up everything I have. relying on the environment, giving up the enviable soil, giving up money and rights, so I know you really love me."

"I don't love you now." Zhuang Zijing said.

Yan Yu smiled wryly: "I used to be very afraid that after I lost these things, when I faced poverty with you and faced firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea, you would find that I was not as powerful as you imagined. Really nothing. The material basis is a parasitic condition, the soil on which our love can last forever, Zijing, don’t be so naive, you have to know that love without a material basis is difficult to last.”

Zhuang Zijing shook her head: "That's your opinion, but not mine. When I understand this, I know that we are not on the same path. So we can't be together, and I don't want to be with you again. together."

Yan Yu took a big gulp of wine: "What about Yang Hui? How much do you know about her? If you have healthy parents, a complete family, loving father and mother, when you pass by that corner town in Judian, Do you still feel like that with the car repairman who should have just passed by? What is the sincerity of a person? What exactly do you want? When you are looking for these so-called truths, you are actually just looking for them Those are the things that can comfort your shortcomings."

"Even if it's just like this, it's in accordance with my will. Since I do things according to my will, it is the truth I pursue." Zhuang Zijing said lightly.

The cold wind blowing at night made Zhuang Zijing feel a little cold, remembering the time when she and Yang Hui talked about life by the fire in the small town, compared with the tasteless conversation with Yan Yu now, the sudden astonishment really made me feel comfortable too much.

"Zijing, I know it will be painful to lose everything, but this is not a reason to give up on yourself. Living in Lijiang, in such a small, dilapidated rented house, with a rude person with little education, Is this really what you want? You used to be a top student of X University, an all-round senior manager of Yixing, and the best candidate for vice president of Yixing. To get rid of poverty, you have also made very important contributions to the transformation and expansion of Yixing... As for the car repairer, can you talk to her about the economy and investment? Can she understand monetary policy and the international financial situation? If two people have no common topic when they are together, what is the basis for being together?"

Zhuang Zijing was silent for a while, as if she was thinking about this question that she had never thought about before: "This is indeed a problem. But for people, the so-called common topic does not only come from work, it may also come from family, from the relationship with each other. Views on some things..."

Yan Yu pulled the corners of his lips and sneered, then put down his wine glass and looked at Zhuang Zijing: "You were not born to your mother!"

Zhuang Zijing smiled: "You drank too much."

Yan Yu laughed: "Your parents are rich, and you are the daughter of a rich family."

Zhuang Zijing was unmoved: "And then?"

"Then, you can have the love of your parents and live in a warm environment, and you don't need to be warmed by such a small town girl." Yan Yu said.

Zhuang Zijing looked at Yan Yu with a flat gaze: "I never expected to have such a good family. I can't change these things, so don't make such assumptions. It doesn't make me give up my current life just because I start fantasizing. .”

Yan Yu stared at Zhuang Zijing for a long time, then smiled: "Yes, I was joking. But I hope you and that car repairer were just joking. And you once said that you and her are just ordinary friends."

"Most lovers are transformed from ordinary friends." Zhuang Zijing is determined to beat Yan Yu to the end, preferably until she completely gives up on herself, and then leaves.

"I've been with you for almost a month, and she hasn't come to see you, so don't lie to me."

"She will come to see me tomorrow."
