smouldering

Even though the boy was making noise, Le'an's tone of voice was always very calm. She seemed to be looking at the old well with noisy frogs, and she just said lightly: "Don't you want to go to the bathroom? You're just dawdling."

"Oh!"

The dawdling boy left. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he should have entered the bathroom.

Le'an was still standing where she was, and Tang Weiran heard her sigh slightly.She wanted to leave here a little bit, and was still struggling with how to walk quietly so that she could slip away quietly, but she was spotted by Le An who was the first to cross the corner.

"Azure?"

Tang Weiran pressed his back against the wall and looked up at Le'an.

Le An laughed, as if someone else was sighing just now: "Are you here? I thought you would be busy for a long time."

"...Well, yes." Tang Weiran twitched the corners of his mouth, his face was dull, and it was far from Le An's pleasure to see her.

Le An tilted his head to observe her, and asked after a while, "What happened? Are you unhappy?"

Before she went out in the morning, Tang Weiran was obviously in a good mood.

Tang Weiran said duplicity, "No."

Le An pondered for a while, and then asked: "Is it because of work matters that have not been dealt with yet? If you are in a hurry, you can go back. I will tell Sister Yiqiu, and she will understand."

"No, no, it's all over."

Le'an said "Oh", "Then go in and have something to eat? There are Chinese and Western styles. I also made spicy crayfish. Have you ever tried it? Le'an brand secret mix..."

Tang Weiran walked away from the wall and passed her with his head down, "I'm going to fix my makeup."

Le An looked at her back: "..."

Inexplicably accepted Tang Weiran's negative emotions, she withdrew her hand, stuffed it into the pocket of her apron, and walked away slowly.

Tang Weiran in the bathroom was quickly touching up her makeup. Eyebrows, eye shadows, and lip balm were all good. She retraces them again, but it's as if they haven't been touched up. There is no difference.

She admitted that she was upset just now. She thought that Le An and herself had become each other's bosom friends. Isn't it very pleasant for them to live together these days?Don't you talk about almost everything?Is it her wishful thinking?

With such a close friend who rented together, she didn't know anything about his emotional state.

Could it be her bad living habits that offended Le An?

Could it be that she has been working too late these days, staying up late and going to the kitchen to fetch water is too loud, which affects her rest?Or, Le An struggled to wake her up every day, but he was already dissatisfied with it?

Tang Weiran washed her hands, and shook them vigorously as if exasperated, but she couldn't dry them. Angrily, she took out a tissue, dried it, and threw it into the trash.

Back in the hall again, there were more people, and the music played was replaced with strong drum beats, and the atmosphere was even more noisy than before.I don't know where Dong Yiqiu met so many friends, and they all greeted her warmly when they came in.

Tang Weiran sadly found a seat and sat down, and a figure like a flower and butterfly rushed towards her.

"Ran Ran! Ran Ran misses you to death!" The visitor was dressed fancy and rubbed back and forth intimately on Tang Weiran's body.

You could tell who it was just by hearing the voice, Tang Weiran had a smile on her face, she helped "Flower Butterfly", "Xiao Lai, came alone? Where's your boyfriend?"

"Oh, New Year's Eve, I'm home."

Tang Weiran teased her: "Aren't you going to meet your in-laws?"

Xiao Lai laughed and waved his hands, "I don't plan to get married! I don't care about their family! It's fun to play with you!"

She pushed Tang Weiran's shoulder, "Your thesis is finally finished?"

Tang Weiran snorted, "What happened in my life, I have already graduated and worked."

Xiao Lai stared straight at her eyes, "You're so embarrassed! How long have you not contacted us? You don't want anything when you're in love? Heavy, sexy, light, friends!"

As she spoke, she tapped Tang Weiran's shoulder with her finger, the last four words being tapped especially hard.

Tang Weiran felt a little pain, but she was not unhappy, and said lightly, "We broke up, and now I'm single."

Xiao Lai was taken aback for a moment, then stroked her shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's fine to be single, so happy to be single."

"Yeah, it's good. I'm busy with work now. I really didn't mean not to contact you."

Xiao Lai was just begging to be strong, but she didn't really mean to blame her, so Tang Weiran seemed to have really let go, so she patted the back of her hand twice, "It's great to be busy with your career, I didn't say it before, your Ex-boyfriend...I don't like it very much anyway."

Tang Weiran took a glass of orange juice and drank it, with the glass on his lips, looking at Xiao Lai with a chuckle.

Xiao Lai saw her eyes and glared at her, "Don't believe me, I'm sure! When you have something new next time, remember to ask me to identify it!"

"Xiao Lai!" A voice from the crowd called her.

Xiao Lai turned around and echoed, "Hey! Come on, you guys sing first, don't wait for me!"

Tang Weiran didn't occupy her anymore, "Go ahead and contact me when the time comes."

"Okay, we'll get in touch when the time comes! Wechat hasn't changed!" Xiao Lai waved his hand and flew away like a butterfly.

It turned out that a singing session was also arranged tonight. There was originally a fake green plant in the open space to the right of the front desk, and Dong Yiqiu built a small stage according to the position of the green plant.There is a surround sound system in the cafe, but after connecting the external microphone, the whole cafe becomes a big KTV box.

Many people were pushed up to sing, the bold and the timid, singing songs that everyone knew well, and finally they all roared together, and those without microphones were also eating and booing beside them, and they were so happy.

Qin Jing and her girlfriend sang a song called Today You Will Marry Me. The two girls had sweet voices, and they were one of the few who sang without losing their tune. So they were asked to kiss each other in public. Dafang blushed and smacked his mouth to mouth, pink bubbles immediately filled the hall, and screams and roars rang out one after another.

The atmosphere is good, and no one seems to be struggling with whether she and her girlfriend are gay or straight.

Tang Weiran was burying her head in filling her stomach, and her mouth couldn't spare her energy to sing, but she couldn't help but be infected by the happy atmosphere. At least for this time, what about mother's phone calls, work worries, and... and Le'an Ah or something, all left behind.

Qin Jing put the microphone on the microphone stand, and raised her hand to signal everyone to look over. Her face was still flushed: "Let's throw a brick to attract jade, next is our guitar solo show! Please listen quietly!"

The place slowly fell silent, Tang Weiran put down the big chicken leg in his hand, and raised his head.

Le An no longer wore the standard work apron at the coffee shop. She changed into a white scoop-neck sweater, revealing the shirt collar inside.Holding a dark blue guitar in his arms, he walked onto the stage and sat in front of the microphone.

Like a professional singer, she looks good. She adjusted the position of the guitar and the microphone, cleared her throat, and put her lips close to the microphone: "It's a shame."

All eyes were on her, including Tang Weiran of course.

The slender fingers that usually skillfully manipulate the coffee machine are now dancing on the strings. As the music progresses, she said: "Every time, secretly watching you..."

The rhythm of the song is light, the melody is small and fresh, flowing in the noisy winter cafe, it has a unique flavor.

"There is an interlude playing the piano slowly in my heart..."

Le'an's vocal range is slightly lower than that of ordinary girls, and compared with the original singer who sounds like a smile, she is a little more sad than thin clouds.There are not so many virtuoso turns and twists, and each syllable beats the heart more directly and strongly.

Tang Weiran stared at her blankly.

"Is it love, like an old movie, a smile or silence is a beautiful thing..."

The lingering, slightly hoarse voice blends with the sound of the piano.

Tang Weiran's heart stopped for half a beat as if he met Le'an's gaze inadvertently, and suddenly felt that Le'an's confiding gaze had a target, and that target...

Tang Weiran unconsciously turned her head and looked back. She wanted to find the back figure she had seen at the corner of the bathroom two hours ago, but there seemed to be no one.

She plucked up the courage to look up at the small stage again. It seemed that Le An was really looking at herself?

Illusion.It's like the kind of star chasers who feel that idols treat them special.

Combined with the unhappiness just now, Tang Weiran became more certain.

She lowered her head, stuffed the big chicken leg that she put down just now into her mouth forcefully, and tore off a bite of the meat. The big chicken leg was a bit cold, but it didn't hinder its delicious taste.

"Ran Ran? Are you Ran Ran?"

It was too sudden, and his name was called out abruptly. Tang Weiran's chicken leg fell on the table, and the meat choked in his throat, unable to swallow or spit it out.

The person who called her name seemed surprised that he scared her, so he quickly pulled out several pieces of paper from the side, put them on his hands and handed them to her mouth, "Are you okay? Spit it out, spit it out!"

As he spoke, he lightly patted Tang Weiran's back with his palm to smooth her out.

"Cough, cough, cough!" Tang Weiran coughed up tears, but still swallowed the meat in her mouth, she uncomfortably pushed the hand behind her back, "Are you... May I ask who are you? "

She raised her head, her eyes fogged with physiological tears from coughing.

Le Ann?No, not Lean.It was a man with neat short hair.

"My name is Le Yi." The man seemed to realize that his actions were too intimate and even a little offensive. He withdrew his hands and stood upright, "Sorry, I scared you just now. However, I am yours. fan!"

... Surname Le?This surname doesn't seem very common.Could it be not his real name?

Tang Weiran looked at the small stage.

Le Yi followed her gaze and looked over, "You know my sister? She sings well, doesn't she!" He looked a little proud and proud.

"You, sister??" Tang Weiran stared.

Le Yi nodded and pointed to his own face, "Yeah, don't they look like you? Twins."

A song, more than three minutes, ended quickly.

Le An bent down to thank him, said a New Year's blessing, grabbed Qin's neck and stepped off the stage quickly, and walked straight to Tang Weiran's table.

Seeing her own brother, she was not very happy.

With his back to the stage, Le Yi didn't notice it yet, and pointed his fingers up to talk to Tang Weiran: "She just keeps pushing me! But we, in fact, were born with a difference of three minutes and zero..."

"Le Yi."

Le Yi who was interrupted didn't feel any discomfort. He turned his head and smiled with eight big teeth: "Hey! Sister!"

With a cold face, Le An grabbed his wrist: "Come out with me."

"Hey... hey! Sister, Sister!" Le Yi was unhappy, he pulled his hand away, grabbed the corner of the table with his neck stuck and stopped in place: "What are you doing, Sister?"

Le An's voice sounded like a layer of ice: "Go back, you go home now."

"I won't go back! It's almost ten o'clock now, and even the fastest flight can't get home. Do you have the heart to let me fly alone for the New Year's Eve?"

Le An: "..."

Le An: "Be patient."

Le Yi started bluffing again, "I won't answer if I don't!"

Tang Weiran on the side witnessed the whole process, and it was the first time she saw such a ruthless Le'an.She raised a hand cautiously, trying to insert into the topic, "How about... let him stay?"

After Le Yi revealed his identity, Tang Weiran remembered the figure from the back that he ran into on the path to the bathroom. Although she didn't pay attention to take a closer look because she hid too quickly, the color and shape of her clothes matched Le Yi's clothes, so it was lingering on her chest. The suffocation also dissipated.

She didn't know why Le'an was so angry, why she was so dissatisfied with her brother's coming, but thinking about how pitiful it would be for a New Year's Eve alone, and the New Year's Eve alone on the plane, the degree of pity would increase exponentially.What is more important than Chinese New Year, can't we talk about it after today?

Le An's complexion was a little loose, but he was still reluctant: "He stays, where does he sleep?"

Le Yi: "I..."

As soon as he was about to speak, Tang Weiran took the conversation away, "Sleeping in your room, why don't you just come over and squeeze me?"

"Ah." Le'an paused, looking at Tang Weiran with a strange expression.

She thought for a while, then dragged Le Yi to leave again.

Le Yi thought she was going to chase him away again, so he immediately started yelling, "I won't leave, I won't leave!"

He has a very loud voice, and the heavy drum music from the coffee shop can hardly overwhelm him. Seeing people looking at him in twos and threes, Le An frowned, "Keep your voice down...I have something to ask you."

"Oh oh."

Tang Weiran watched Le Yi obediently follow Le An to the side, the two siblings whispered something in their ears, and then Le Yi looked at her frequently.

The topic is about yourself?

Tang Weiran took off the disposable gloves for eating, wiped his hands with a paper towel, and pricked up his ears to get close to the two of them.

But the music was too loud, and it was very difficult for her to distinguish Le Yi's voice.

"...But I have business to do! I'm here to talk about work!"

Then she heard Le An's words that seemed to be squeezed out of her teeth: "Stop thinking about her."
