if i could love you

On Sunday afternoon, Li Li brought the tightly wrapped Wen Jiaoer to a bar called Verlaine.In Verlaine at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, there were only a few sporadic people, not as noisy as the bar in Wen Jiaoer's impression, but very quiet.To be honest, this is Wen Jiaoer's first visit to the bar.Normally, who would bring her to such a place?She has almost no friends of the same age, and she also lost a lot of fun of her peers.She carefully looked at this bar called Verlaine. The bar was not very big. There was a bar as soon as you entered the door. Behind the bar was a large wine rack filled with all kinds of wine.Not far from the bar, there are several sets of sofas and coffee tables.There is a small live stage in the innermost part of the bar, where Li Liping should usually perform there.

"A Yuan!" Li Li greeted a young man sitting on the sofa as soon as he entered the door.

He walked towards them, he was dressed in denim, his hair was neither long nor short, and the bangs on his forehead made him look very young.

"Here you come? Li Li." The man named A Yuan in front of him greeted Li Li.

"Yes. This is my friend." Li Li introduced Wen Jiaoer to A Yuan.

"Hello." Wen Jiaoer hesitated whether to take off the mask.

"This is Yuan, the owner of this bar." Li Li continued.

"Why is your friend so tight?" A Yuan squinted his slender eyes and asked.

Li Li glanced at Wen Jiaoer, then suddenly leaned into A Yuan's ear and murmured.

After Li Li finished speaking, A Yuan nodded and gave Wen Jiaoer a meaningful look, and said to Li Li, "Don't worry."

"You guys talk first, I have some things to do. Have fun, don't be polite." A Yuan obviously said the last sentence to Wen Jiaoer.

"I told A Yuan your identity, in case you are recognized, he can help." Li Li whispered in Jiao Er's ear, warm breath enveloping a small piece of Wen Jiao Er's neck Wen Jiaoer smelled the scent of burning pine branches on Li Li's body again.

"Well, good." The tense Wen Jiaoer nodded in agreement.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the bar gradually became lively.Wen Jiaoer was still tightly wrapped and sitting on the sofa in the corner.Look at the lights and shadows floating in the bar, and the wine glasses overlap.And Li Li on the stage, her long slightly curly hair hangs down like thick seaweed; she put on beautiful eye makeup today, with a charming red at the end of her eyes like a red carp; and the brown-green beauty The pupils cut off the coldness and loneliness in her eyes, adding to her exotic temperament; the oxblood lipstick made her usually dull and gorgeous.Wearing a peacock blue silk shirt, he unbuttoned the top two buttons, revealing his delicate collarbone and fair neck. The black choker was tied on his slender neck, exuding indescribable desire and indescribable desire all over his body. Abstinence; the lower body is a pair of black skinny jeans, and the feet are also wearing black Martin boots. The wrapped legs are long, thin and straight.On the stage, she seems to have been replaced with her soul, and she is amazing with just one mouthful while holding the microphone.

"Hope that I'm a madman and hope that I'm not alone

Miss me glamorous and also miss me frivolous and vulgar

You want me to be sunny and my style is not swaying

Make fun of me crying and laughing, no one knows how to play me, my heart is like a dead tree

Give me dreams and give me quick sobriety

Sleep with me and spend time with me without mercy

Love me purely and still love me

Watch me play and sing and watch me heartbroken

May I be like smoke and still blame me Manli is lazy

Look at me crazy and also look at me funny and dignified

If you want me to be beautiful, you want me to kill people without blinking an eye

wish me happiness from now on and wish me wither forever

Seductive for me and lost in my eyes

.......

Blame me for being a hundred years old and worry-free, and blame me for crying in vain"

The Li Li on the stage now is completely different from the Li Li who was at the KTV that day.That day she sang "The Hostage" in the KTV with the microphone in both hands and absent-mindedly, like a foggy island, cutting off the connection with the land.And now she is a tropical plant on stage, warm and mysterious, with bright colors.

If Li Li on the stage looked into the corner, he would definitely see the tightly wrapped girl looking at her obsessively, her heart beating wildly.If she wasn't wearing a mask, her expression would have betrayed her.Jiaoer has never seen Li Li like this before. The Li Li in her impression is cold and indifferent. When he speaks, he lifts his eyelids and just glances at others. No matter what he says, he will give people a sense of alienation.

After ten o'clock in the evening, Li Li's resident singing ended.She packed up her things and was about to leave with Jiao Er.

"Leave?" At this moment, A Yuan walked over from the side.

"Yeah." Li Li nodded.

"You worked hard today."

"It's okay, it should be." Li Li off the stage returned to his alienated state.

"Be careful on the road. Did you have fun today?" The latter sentence was asked to Jiao Er.

"Well, I'm very happy. Thank you, Boss A Yuan, for taking care of me." Jiao Er nodded, and her voice came out of the mask.

"Come to play often in the future." A Yuan replied with a smile, and then said to Li Li, "You don't know that when you are singing on the stage, she is always watching you from below without even turning her head." kind."

When Wen Jiaoer heard this, his face immediately became hot. Fortunately, he was wearing a mask, otherwise he would definitely be exposed.

"That's..." Jiaoer couldn't find a proper reason to explain.

"Why are you always staring at him?" Li Li asked back with the same expression.

"Didn't you ask me to take care of her? I have to watch her from time to time. What if something goes wrong?" A Yuan explained.

"That's really hard work for you. I'm leaving, Boss Yuan, see you tomorrow." While talking, Li Li pulled Jiao Er out of the door.

"How do we go back?" Jiao Er asked after going out.

Li Li glanced at his phone and said, "Now at [-]:[-], there is the last bus at the bus stop near our school at [-]:[-]. Do you want to take it? If you don't want to take it, then we can take a taxi."

"Then how do you usually go back to school?" Jiaoer asked.

"I usually take the bus and take a taxi if it's late," Li Li said.

"Then take the bus! I haven't taken a bus for a long time." Wen Jiaoer actually had a little hope.

"It's okay, there are usually very few people on the last bus, so there should be nothing wrong. But now I need to run two steps, otherwise I might not be able to catch the bus." Li Li dragged Jiao Er's wrist and ran towards the bus stop sign on the opposite side of the road. .

The night wind at the end of November had already started to be bitter and stinging, and Wen Jiaoer felt the wind blowing towards her face, but she didn't feel too uncomfortable wearing a mask.She looked at Li Li who was pulling her to run forward, his figure was thin and tall, and his long hair was flying away while running, she felt inexplicably happy.

As soon as we arrived at the stop sign, the last bus came.Li Li threw two coins casually, and led Wen Jiaoer to the back row.On the last bus today, apart from the driver, there were only Wen Jiaoer and Li Li.Wen Jiaoer sat in the last row by the window, while Li Li sat in a seat next to her.

The two of them were silent all the way, Wen Jiaoer looked out the window at Pingcheng, which he was already very familiar with.She also rushed back to Pingcheng in the middle of the night after filming in other places, but she didn't have the heart to appreciate the night view of Pingcheng in the nanny car at all. At that time, she was exhausted physically and mentally, and she just wanted to go home as soon as possible to settle down.But it is different now, sitting on the empty last train with the person I like is like a plot in a novel, and even the ordinary scenery outside the window has become much cuter.

When Wen Jiaoer was lost in thought, Li Li nodded to her and said, "Here we are."

Jiao Er came back from her own world, "So soon?" She couldn't believe it.

"The distance wasn't that far, and it was night, so there was no traffic jam, so it would be faster." Li Li explained.

Jiao Er followed Li Li out of the car and walked on the road, thinking about today's experience, she unexpectedly laughed out loud.

"What are you happy about?" Li Li asked after hearing Jiao Er's laughter.

"Because today is my first time to go to a bar, and it's also my first time to take the last bus. I'm so happy! Li Li, thank you!" Wen Jiaoer really felt happy from the bottom of his heart, and his almond eyes sparkled when he spoke .

Li Li stared into Wen Jiaoer's eyes for a moment, lost his mind, and then said, "You're welcome."

"Then can I go to Verlaine to watch you sing in the future?" Wen Jiaoer asked expectantly.

"Of course. You can go if you want." Perhaps because of Wen Jiaoer's excitement, he could hear a hint of indulgence in Li Li's tone.

Wen Jiaoer secretly thought that this was a good start.From then on, whenever she had nothing to do, she would wrap herself up tightly and go to the bar with Li Li.Li Li joked with her that she looked like a zongzi.Yes, Li Li can joke with her now.Unlike at the beginning, when Li Li talked to her every time he was polite and polite, he would never cross the dividing line.Everything seemed to be moving in the direction Jiao Er expected, until that Sunday came... Another Sunday.

On Sunday afternoon, Jiao Er went back to school early.After returning to the dormitory, Li Li was not seen.At four or five o'clock in the afternoon, she wrapped herself tightly and went out again.She boldly stopped a taxi at the school gate. If her mother and Simon knew about it, she would be doomed. It would be fine if she ran out by herself, but she dared to take a taxi alone!

"Little girl, it's not too cold today! Why are you covering up so tightly?" The taxi driver is an uncle in his 40s who looks very talkative.

"Well, I have a cold, so I have a cold." Wen Jiaoer repeated the words twice again, and bowed his head guiltily.

"I think you look like a star." The driver said casually.

"I'm not a star!" Wen Jiaoer suddenly raised his voice when he heard this, causing the driver to look back, "Drive carefully, master. I just have a cold." Wen Jiaoer softened his tone and said obediently .

"Okay! What you say is what you say. The customer is God!" The driver didn't say much anymore.

Wen Jiaoer was so nervous all the way.In fact, when she went to Verlaine with Li Li, she would also take a taxi, but she had never encountered such a situation.Even if the driver asked, Li Li would gently pass Jiaoer by saying "she has a cold".Today she was left alone, and she couldn't cope with this situation.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw A Yuan sitting by the bar greeting her.She walked over.

"Boss, how do you know it's me?" Jiao Er secretly pulled down the mask.

"You can just call me Yuan. Except for you, no one who comes to my bar is so tightly wrapped." Yuan kept one hand on the table, looking lazy.

"Is Li Li here?" Wen Jiaoer asked.

"No! I wanted to ask why you are alone?"

"She didn't come?" Jiao Er's tone was a little disappointed, thinking that she should call Li Li before coming.

"But she should be here in a while, don't worry." A Yuan looked at his watch and comforted Jiaoer.

It was almost seven o'clock, and Li Li was still late to come. Jiao Er, who was sitting in the corner, hesitated whether to call Li Li, but saw Li Li enter the door of the bar.

"You're here. What's the matter, what's up today? You're late." A Yuan, who was sitting at the bar, walked closer to Li Li than Jiao Er.

"Some things are delayed." Li Li's voice sounded weak.

"Here! I've been waiting for you for a long time." A Yuan raised his chin in the direction of Jiao'er as a gesture.

"Li Li, you are here." At this time, Jiao Er walked up to Li Li.

"You came by yourself?" Li Li looked a little tired.

"Well, I took a taxi by myself." Jiao Er replied truthfully.

"Don't do this in the future, it's not safe, do you hear me?" Li Li said with a frown.

"Well. I know. But I want to see your performance!" Wen Jiaoer didn't notice the strange look on Li Li's face, and was only happy that Li Li cared about her.

"It's getting late, I'll clean up first, and I'll be on stage soon." Li Li said this to A Yuan.

Wen Jiaoer, who was sitting in the corner, looked at Li Li on the stage, and gradually noticed something strange.Today's Li Li was wearing a black turtleneck sweater and a black woolen skirt, holding a microphone in his hand, his eyes were absent-minded, very reminiscent of the expression he had at KTV that day.

"Before I sing, I want to say a few words. I have a friend who is getting married tomorrow, and I want to give her the song I will sing next. I wish her a happy wedding!"

Li Li's tone was low and his expression was sad.

Intuition tells Jiao Er that it is not that simple.
