fall in love by chance

"In the long period of adolescence, those memories that make our hearts beat, move, and sad, those moments that we call accidental, will gradually make us different from others and become unique individuals."

Chapter [-] Grain Rain

At the end of spring in April, it is the season when it is warm and cold.

At 09:30 on Friday night, a few tables of guests were sitting in twos and threes in a bar called "Expect Possibilities" in Haicheng.

This place is very small, only forty or fifty square meters in total. There is a palm-sized singing stage in the corner, and a young man in black T-shirt is sitting on a high stool and singing.

He has long legs on the ground, and his fingers holding the microphone are long and clean. When singing, he sits in a relaxed posture, with a lazy expression, as if he doesn't care about anything.

All the female customers in the private seats below the stage came for him, not because of the singing, but also because of his face.

According to Jiang Sheng, the owner of the bar, with his looks and figure, even if he just sits on it and meows, there will be people cheering him on.

However, today's Liang Ruixi sang more emotionally than in the past. There was a hint of depression in her clear voice. Looking at the girls below, they almost burst into tears.

"I hurriedly waited to say goodbye to my youth, and then I was scarred by life, and finally waited for the song I didn't dare to listen to. I let go and cried..."

Liang Ruixi is indifferent to the audience's reaction and Jiang Sheng's psychological activities. Half of his soul is immersed in his own singing, and the other half of his soul keeps thinking about the past with Xie Wenmu.

Xie Wenmu is his current girlfriend, a rich and beautiful woman.

The two met for the first time in the Lixin Building where Liang Ruixi worked. Xie Wenmu asked him for his contact information in the elevator.

Being approached by girls is a normal state in Liang Ruixi's life. He had more than a year to spare at that time, and seeing that Xie Wenmu's appearance also matched his own aesthetics, he did not refuse.After meeting a few times, I felt that we had a good chat, and we got together naturally.

Xie Wenmu worked in a foreign trade company. For a long time, Liang Ruixi thought that the other party was just like him, just a small white-collar worker with an annual salary of more than 20 yuan.It wasn't until a month ago that he learned that the company where Xie Wenmu worked was run by her father, and that her family had three priceless mansions in the best part of Haicheng.

When encountering such a "rich woman", anyone would think that she has found a treasure, and she hugged her thigh quickly, knelt and licked, and wanted to marry into a wealthy family as a son-in-law, and her success was just around the corner.

But Liang Ruixi still remembers the overwhelming feeling of oppression when he saw Xie Wenmu's mother.

That day was also like a dream. He went to work in the morning, and before he woke up, he was stopped by a woman with exquisite makeup.

The other party was sitting in a silver Mercedes and claimed to be Xie Wenmu's mother. She let Liang Ruixi into the car, and then calmly asked him about his family background.

Liang Ruixi was not used to being questioned like this by a stranger he met for the first time, but thinking that the other party might be his future mother-in-law, he dared not be dishonest.

After listening to Xie's mother, her expression was complicated, and she did not forget to give him a sympathetic look in her contempt. Then she introduced a few words about her family's situation arrogantly, and finally concluded her statement: "Wen Mu is still young. I can understand the attraction of handsome boys, but her father will not allow her to be with someone like you, so you should separate as soon as possible."

It was not an equal communication, but a unilateral interrogation and sentencing, like a prosecutor treating a criminal, condescending and aggressive.

Anyway, the central idea is just one sentence: he should not wishful thinking.

After getting out of the car, Liang Ruixi was still in an indescribable sense of aggrieved, as if he was walking on the road, and suddenly he was hit from behind with a sap, and he was scolded "toad wants to eat swan meat" , he was beaten dizzy, weak, chest tightness and shortness of breath.

Xie Wenmu soon found out that her mother had looked for him, but she only said "you don't need to talk to her" and didn't explain anything else.

Liang Ruixi thinks about it too, he is with Xie Wenmu, not with her mother, it doesn't matter whether her family runs a racecourse or lives in the palace.

And not long after they got together, Xie Wenmu took the initiative to move here. The rent during this period was paid by Liang Ruixi. He usually pays for dinner together. It can be said that he has never taken advantage of Xie Wenmu in material matters. .

But Xie's mother's words still brought a psychological shadow to Liang Ruixi. The mother and daughter looked a bit alike. Every time he saw Xie Wenmu, Liang Ruixi would think of Xie's mother's arrogant appearance when she showed off her assets, so that Later, when Xie Wenmu wanted to do that kind of thing with him, the back of Liang Ruixi's head began to ache, and an error window popped up like a system error in the depths of his heart——

【This is swan meat, I don't deserve it. 】

And there is no option under the pop-up window except a "Close" button.

So I could only lift up my pants and let it go.

Xie Wenmu also sensed something was wrong with him. I don't know how many times after Liang Ruixi rejected her, Xie Wenmu asked, "What do you mean?"

Liang Ruixi took the opportunity to ask back: "Xiao Mu, have you ever thought about marrying me?"

Xie Wenmu looked at him like a fool, and after a long time said: "Ruixi, I am very happy with you, and I know you are not trying to trick my family, but I don't want to get married."

Liang Ruixi was a little dazed, he just wanted Xie Wenmu's attitude when he asked that question, if Xie Wenmu was willing to be with him and could respect him, he would try his best to bear the pressure from her family and treat her well.They can sign a prenuptial agreement, and he will never covet a penny from her family.

But Liang Ruixi never expected that the other party would give him such an answer.

Xie Wenmu also said: "I thought you were the same kind of person as I am."

Liang Ruixi: "What kind of person am I?"

Xie Wenmu: "Love to play, chic, free, and don't want to be bound by marriage."

Liang Ruixi was about to be laughed out of anger. He is no longer an ignorant boy of seventeen or eighteen years old. Of course he knows what it means for two people to have a formal relationship. The relationship with Xie Wenmu is the one he has worked hard for the longest time. Now this The girl actually told him "I don't want to be bound by marriage"?

If he didn't want to get married, would he have agreed to date?Can you promise her to move here?

Liang Ruixi was even a little skeptical, could this be a new trend of thought for new women in the metropolis?Want such a high-sounding reason for prostitution?

"Sorry, I'm not the kind of person you think..." Liang Ruixi said in his heart, I thought about going with you to get the certificate.

After Xie Wenmu vaguely learned what he meant, he moved away the next day and didn't come back for half a month, and he didn't take the initiative to contact him.

"I have waited for each other several times, but there is no ending..."

When singing this line, Liang Ruixi thought that the five relationships he had talked about all ended inexplicably, and suddenly felt a bitterness in his heart, and he sympathized fiercely.

At the end of a song, everyone applauded.

After getting off the stage, Jiang Sheng handed him a glass of Mojito, and the cool drink entered his stomach, but Liang Ruixi's throat was burning hot in his stomach.

"Why are you drinking in such a hurry?" Jiang Sheng glanced at him sideways, and pressed the button with a calculator, "The wine is selling well today, and the income is not bad, do you want to sing two more songs?"

"No, I'm a little tired, I want to go back." Liang Ruixi took off his coat from the hook on the wall.

"Hey, wait," Jiang Sheng called him, and took out a bottle of perfume from the bar drawer, "Here, give it to Xiao Mu."

"Where did it come from?" Liang Ruixi wondered.

"I bought it when I was watching the live broadcast on my mobile phone," Jiang Sheng hesitated, "Xiao Mu hasn't been here for almost a month, has she? Are you having a conflict with her?"

"I guess we have to share it." Liang Ruixi looked at the perfume in his hand. This brand, in a large bottle, costs at least 1000 yuan, which is a lot of money for a worker, but in the eyes of a rich lady like Xie Wenmu, it may be It's just an idle item that you use twice and put aside.

In fact, Xie Wenmu hasn't contacted him for half a month, and his heart is already cold.

"What's going on?" Jiang Sheng asked unexpectedly, "Didn't we talk for a long time this time?"

Liang Ruixi and Jiang Sheng are classmates in junior high school, and they were back-to-back brothers when they were young. It's just that Liang Ruixi is a top student, while Jiang Sheng is a scumbag. After graduating from junior high school, their development paths are completely different.Liang Ruixi was admitted to the best high school in the local area, and then went to F University. He was a man of the hour in their area back then.On the other hand, Jiang Sheng went to a technical secondary school, sneaked around the neighborhood all day long, and suddenly became enlightened in his early twenties. He settled down to learn bartending by himself, and worked as a bartender in Changshui City for many years, and now he is considered a leader in the industry.

Too many things have happened in these years, the people in the past have been separated one after another, only Jiang Sheng has kept in touch with Liang Ruixi, the two reunited last year, Liang Ruixi heard Jiang Sheng say that his business in the local bar is not as good as before, So he came up with the idea of ​​inviting him to start a business in Haicheng.Jiang Sheng has always admired and admired him, so he came here without asking any questions. This "Expecting Possibilities" was jointly built by the two of them. On the surface, Jiang Sheng is the boss, but Liang Ruixi is also half an investor.

They have a good relationship and know the basics, Liang Ruixi didn't hide it from him, and simply explained the ins and outs of a few sentences.

Jiang Sheng was filled with emotion when he heard the words: "Brother Rui, are you a scum girl with an attractive physique? I still remember that school girl in your high school back then, she seemed to be a scumbag too."

Don't mention it, that was his first love girlfriend, and she also chased him on her own initiative. After graduating from high school, she confessed that she had sex with other boys less than a month after he went to F University, and someone from the same school told him about it. At that time, he was also completely guarded, and he didn't dare to approach female sex for more than half a year.

Jiang Sheng jokingly said: "People who don't know that still think you are so handsome must have a lot of good fortune, but who knows that you have suffered a lot."

Liang Ruixi smiled bitterly, and returned the perfume to him: "Keep it for your future wife." Putting on her clothes, she urged, "This store hasn't paid back its money yet, so you can spend some flowers at your leisure."

It had just rained outside, the ground was wet, and the air was filled with unrelenting spring cold.

Liang Ruixi wrapped up his denim jacket tightly and went to catch the subway. The phone in his trouser pocket rang a message alert. He was restless and didn't bother to look at it. When he was approaching his residence, his phone vibrated frequently, so he couldn't help but take it out.

Several red dots popped up in the WeChat chat interface, all of which were university club groups and alumni groups that had not been contacted for a long time. I saw a similar message in each group - Xiao Zhi was getting married.

Xiao Zhi...and Zhou Yan?

They are getting married?

These two were well-known model couples on campus at F University Law School. Junior sister Xiao Zhi was the department flower and the head of the school's network department. Zhou Yan was the president of their law school student union and the campus host. Big best friend.

But Liang Ruixi was a little surprised that Zhou Yan was not the first to tell him such important news.

Even though they haven't been in touch for a while.

Liang Ruixi clicked on Zhou Yan's profile picture, just about to ask, when he heard someone call his name.When he looked up, he saw Xie Wenmu, who hadn't shown up for half a month, leaning against the door of his house.

"You can be regarded as coming back." Xie Wenmu swallowed an e-cigarette and said, "I sent you a message and waited for more than half an hour."

"I didn't hear it just now," Liang Ruixi took out the key and asked, "Why don't you go in?"

Xie Wenmu patted the suitcase beside him and said, "I've already gone in, and I came here specially to say goodbye to you today."

Liang Ruixi was taken aback for a moment, but he wasn't too surprised, but seeing Xie Wenmu say goodbye so calmly, he still felt a little uncomfortable: "We've been together for a year, don't you have no nostalgia for me?"

Xie Wenmu chuckled: "I was with you because I wanted you to be handsome, but you can't even be in love with me now, so what am I still nostalgic for?"

Her understated tone made Liang Ruixi feel that the fantasy she had embraced before was a joke.

That's right, maybe he was the only one who had been emotionally involved, and the other party just treated him as an object of youthful indulgence for pleasure.

"Okay," Liang Ruixi nodded, "you can go."

After entering the door, Liang Ruixi stood there in a daze for a few minutes, completely dazed, in a daze where she couldn't breathe.

He laughed self-deprecatingly, and suddenly began to sing loudly: "Wait and wait and you grow old, love and hate go so many twists and turns, I dare not look back, I didn't wait... Huh~~ah~~ ~"

In the bathroom, Liang Ruixi turned on the shower to the maximum, rubbing her head while singing.

When he was feeling uncomfortable, taking a bath and singing were the best ways for him to vent his emotions. He still pointed at the shower in the bathroom and swear loudly: "If I want to have true feelings for women again, I will be punished for not being in for the rest of my life! Fuck!"

After taking this poisonous oath, the stagnant air in his chest seemed to dissipate, but immediately after, there was a cramping pain in his abdomen. The pain made Liang Ruixi almost lose his footing, and the pouring hot water couldn't stop his forehead from going out. Cold sweat.

Liang Ruixi knew something was wrong after holding on for half a minute. It wasn't just a normal pain. He didn't care to wipe off the water drops, so he ran outside naked and stooped, grabbed his phone and sent a voice message to Jiang Sheng.

"Dog kidney, I'm dying... help me... my stomach hurts so much, I'm going to take a taxi to the Lingzhou Second Hospital... You also go there, in case I don't carry it over and hang up, you help me collect the corpse... "Just a few minutes before and after, he was as weak as if he had been hit hard, and his voice was no longer full of energy.

But after posting the news, Liang Ruixi yelled that it was terrible.

Just now when he wanted to ask Zhou Yan about his marriage, the dialogue box floated to the top, and Zhou Yan and Jiang Sheng's avatars were very similar in color, Liang Ruixi didn't see clearly, so he directly sent that sentence to Zhou Yan...

The author has something to say:

"I hurriedly waited to say goodbye to my youth, and was scarred by life later, and finally waited for the song I didn't dare to listen to. I let go and cried aloud."

——Li Ronghao "Wait and Wait to Get Old"

【Interlude】

Liang Ruixi: From now on, I want to have true feelings for women again, I can't fucking be in for the rest of my life!

Zhou Yan: It’s okay, you can have feelings for men, like me.
