Ordinary Road 2010

Under the bright light at this moment, it can be clearly recognized that it is Gu Caiwei, an old classmate whom I haven't seen for many years, and is also a popular singer nowadays.

Vivian is her stage name after her debut.

She looked around with a smile, and said hello to everyone: "Hello everyone, long time no see."

The box suddenly became noisy, and almost everyone surrounded it, saying "Vivienne, I'm your fan..."

Maybe some people don't feel too cold, so they politely exchanged a few words in the past, "Caiwei, long time no see, she is getting more and more beautiful..."

On such an occasion, there is no tit-for-tat confrontation, and no one will jump out to embarrass anyone.

Everyone tacitly abides by the three elements of adult social interaction:

Decent, decent, still decent.

Only Lin Yi was still sitting in the seat, he saw that Gu Caiwei didn't have the complicated and delicate makeup and makeup that she usually sees on TV today.

She was just wearing the simplest white T-shirt, jeans and white sneakers, with a little powder applied, and her long, smooth hair was casually draped over her shoulders.

Gu Caiwei has a standard melon-seeded beauty face, full forehead, charming big eyes that seem to be talking, and a high nose bridge that greatly enhances the delicacy of the face. It is the most popular template for online celebrity customers in plastic surgery hospitals.

Black fans attacked her as a "artificial beauty" based on this.

But Lin Yi and the high school classmates present can prove that this "school flower among the school flowers" of Lin'an Middle School is a true natural beauty.

This was a joke of the male students at school, which meant that even in the previous school beauties, she was still able to overwhelm the crowd.

The years didn't seem to have left any traces on her face, Lin Yi was both familiar with this look and felt strange at the same time.

It seemed that sitting alone was a bit awkward. He looked around and found that there was an open-air balcony outside the box.

So he picked up a bottle of beer and walked out, closing the door behind him.

The old bear turned his head and pretended not to see anything.

The view from the balcony is very good, and the night view on both sides of the Zhijiang River is outside.

In the cool breeze at night, the neon lights of the city are reflected in the silent river, and in the distance are the lights of thousands of houses in Lin'an, twinkling like the beating pulse of this ancient and young city.

……

The noise in the box lasted for about a few songs, and then slowly fell silent.

Lin Yi looked outside in a daze and didn't know what he was thinking until he heard a knock on the door.

He turned his head, just in time to see Gu Caiwei opened the door and stepped out, standing to his left, a faint scent entered his nostrils.

"Drinking alone?"

Lin Yi turned around and continued to face the river view outside, answering irrelevant questions: "Long time no see."

Gu Caiwei followed his gaze to look at the night sky, and said with remembrance:

"ten years."

"The last time we met was a class reunion at the end of the college entrance examination. In the end, it was almost the same people who stayed behind. That day we went to the Zhijiang Bridge to watch the sunrise after we sang."

Lin Yi couldn't answer this sentence: "Why are you here today, don't you have a job?"

Gu Caiwei obviously answered in it just now: "The tenth anniversary of graduation, so many people have come, why can't I come?"

"Don't you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't recognize old classmates when I become a big star?"

After speaking, he turned to look at him.

Lin Yi was swept by her hair, and his face was a little itchy, so he turned to his right hand, as if there was something attracting him there.

He replied casually: "Not all of them came. Several girls who had opposed you didn't come. It must be because the class leader didn't call them on purpose."

Gu Caiwei seemed to think of something unhappy, and said angrily: "They still dare to come! Do you still want to scold me in person for being an idiot and beauty who lowered the school's rate, and a shame in the middle?"

As the top high school senior in this city, Linzhong's college entrance examination rate is close to 100% over the years. It is correct to say that she has lowered the rate, but it will be a personal attack after that.

Lin Yi was a little amused: "You still recite these few whispered words backwards, and you are too vengeful, right? And you are indeed not online."

"So what, why don't you hang my photo on the alumni wall?" Her tone was a little smug.

"It's still hanging high."

Lin Yi sighed with emotion, then turned back and continued to stare at the night sky outside the balcony.

He suddenly realized that the sentence just now leaked something, and added unnaturally: "Old Xiong told me, you still remember that his father is a teacher at the school."

The atmosphere became a little awkward, he subconsciously switched the beer bottle from his right hand to his left, and Gu Caiwei's gaze swept across his empty fingers.

She turned around and looked at the night scene outside, stretched out her hand to brush the hair beside her ear, and asked inadvertently, "How are you and that senior sister in the university?"

After speaking, he pointed back to the box and said, "Oh, I heard that inside just now."

Lin Yi didn't want to expose it. In fact, after he was with his senior sister, Lao Xiong told him, "Gu Caiwei asked me, and I told the truth."

At that time, Gu Caiwei had just debuted and was still a member of a rookie girl idol group.

"broke up."

"I'm going back to Lin'an when I graduate, and she's going to go abroad, so we split up."

This statement cannot be considered a lie.

Gu Caiwei's tone was a bit dangerous: "Actually, I have a question I've always wanted to ask you."

Lin Yi didn't dare to turn around, but he could feel that Gu Caiwei was staring at him with burning eyes. He felt this almost suffocating feeling again in the past ten years.

He forced a smile, pretending to be relaxed and said: "Don't ask, if you ask, you have loved."

The stem is a bit old, Gu Caiwei didn't smile.

She grabbed the railing with both hands, leaned almost her entire upper body out of the balcony, then turned her head to look into Lin Yi's eyes, and now he couldn't avoid looking at Gu Caiwei.

Lin Yi turned his head and looked at Gu Caiwei's almost unchanged face.

Time seems to go back to the morning on the Zhijiang Bridge ten years ago, when the sun rose and the river surface was covered with golden yellow.

She pinched the corner of the sleeve of her school uniform tightly with her thumb and index finger, and said three words to him with her face up:

"Don't go!"

The tone seemed to be ordering and acting like a baby.

There is still something different, Lin Yi recalled that ten years ago she still had immature bangs, and when she spoke, her ears turned red, as if she was about to bleed.

When Lin's reality and memory began to be confused, Gu Caiwei finally spoke:

"I want to ask, after the Yucheng earthquake in 13, why didn't you see me when I went to the capital?"

Lin Yi heaved a sigh of relief, and then smiled wryly in his heart.

But he still insisted: "I told you, I had to prepare for the final exam."

Gu Caiwei obviously didn't believe it, but she didn't continue to be embarrassed, she retracted her protruding body and stood on the balcony again, and said in a solemn tone:

"Thank you that time, thank you for calling me first, and for reporting my mother's safety."

During the Yucheng earthquake in 13, Gu Caiwei was a trainee while attending school at the Rongcheng Conservatory of Music.

When Lin Yi saw that there were casualties in Rongcheng on the news, he frantically dialed the number that he might never have dialed in his life.

When the call was really connected, the voice on the other side was a little unbelievable in joy:

"Lin Yi? Is that you?"

The familiar voice made Lin Yi's rationality return to him, and he asked as calmly as possible:

"Are you OK?"

"I'm fine. I evacuated to the playground with my classmates. Nothing happened! It's just that everyone is on the phone, the base station is overloaded, and the phone has been unable to get through. You are the first to call in!"

"It's fine, then I'll hang up, and I'll ask Old Bear again."

Old Xiong was studying at Shuzhong University at that time, so he was of course unscathed.

"Wait a minute! Can you call my mother for me? I just tried for a long time and couldn't get out."

"..."

"Give me the number."

Lin Yi pretended to recall the situation at that time, but how could he forget it, he remembered every word and every sentence.

"They're all classmates, it's normal to care about them."

As if he had convinced himself, he nodded confidently, "Later, the old bear also said that I was the first to call in. I may be a hidden VIP of Mobile."

Thank you Mobile for letting me make that call.

Gu Caiwei's tone was still very serious: "That phone call is very important to my mother, and it is also very important to me."

He was silent for a moment, aware that his emotions were on the verge of losing control.

"Then I am honored."

Lin Yi seemed to regain some courage through these few words, he turned around and faced Gu Caiwei, pretending to be annoyed:

"Oh! The fish tank at home hasn't been fed yet, so I have to leave today."

My family has a shit fish tank, what a stupid reason!

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he began to reflect on himself, wondering whose acting skills were worse than Gu Caiwei's.

Vivienne's acting skills are among the "Four Unsolved Mysteries in the Entertainment Industry".

As the "biological daughter" of the highest honor in the Chinese pop music industry - the bosom friend award, Vivienne's popularity has always been distorted by the jealousy of other singers.

However, so far, all the film and television dramas in which she has guest starred have all been silent, without exception.

Even the fans were amazed.

So much so that with such a top popularity, no crew has dared to invite her to play an official role so far.

In fact, the entertainment industry is quite superstitious, and you have to burn incense and pray to Buddha when you start the machine.

Because of this metaphysical physique of "showing up and hitting the street", gossip said that Vivienne has been jointly banned by the film and television industry.

Friends in the circle even suggested that she was strictly forbidden to visit the set.

Lin Yiqiang pretended to be calm and opened the balcony door, and re-entered the box. In the dim light, he located the old bear by the size of the big one, said hello, and fled in a hurry.

Gu Caiwei didn't stop him, but just watched his back disappear outside the door.

……

Lin Yi who came downstairs finally felt a burst of relaxation.

He stood on the spot for a few seconds to calm down the surging emotions, then walked aimlessly forward, and began to torture himself again in his heart:

It's been ten years, why can't I face Gu Caiwei?

He raised his head and saw a huge advertising portrait of the big star Vivienne playing on the electronic screen in the shopping mall opposite. Her refined face was even more flawless. It was the endorsement of an overseas beauty brand of hers.

"It's you, Caiwei."

"You are too dazzling."

"No matter how hard you try, you can't catch up." He muttered to himself.

For the next job, find a small start-up factory that looks reliable. It doesn’t matter how much money you pay, and you can mix some original stocks.

The bonus period of the IT industry has actually passed, and no one has talked about "changing the world" for a long time.

Working for a few years, accepting a giant as a father, kowtow and accepting himself is the best ending.

Shabby?

How many people want to kneel but don't know how to do it.

"Although the chances are slim, if you don't fight once, you will never be reconciled for the rest of your life." He made up his mind.

"Drip drip!"

A piercing siren sound brought Lin Yi back to his senses, only to realize that he was standing in the middle of the zebra crossing, and the sidewalk lights on the opposite side were as red as blood.

As soon as he turned around, the dazzling headlights blinded him.

A big truck that couldn't stop in time crashed into his body unstoppably, and he could even see the frightened and distorted expression of the driver's elder brother in the car window.

One second before he lost consciousness, he only had time to conjure up a thought:

"If I could do it all over again, how would I choose?"
