Beat Generation

The lights suddenly dimmed.

The veteran Huanjing National Band played.

The conductor of the band was a white-haired old man. He raised his chin and straightened his tuxedo. There was a burst of loud applause from the crowd, which temporarily broke the silence between Bo Mei and Wen Xi. .

Holding the goblet, Bao Mei slowly swirled the bright red liquid. She took advantage of the light to get dark, and her eyes just fell on Wen Xi's belly.

Much bigger than she imagined, and rounder than she imagined.

Wen Xi's appearance also changed a lot due to the great change in her stomach.

Wen Xi is still Wen Xi, her ignoring appearance is still so indifferent that people dare not get close to her, there is no change in her facial features, only the aggressive aura is gone, and her lowered head is no longer that impressive There is a sense of oppression.

In the past, Bo Mei was very afraid of Wen Xi's appearance of keeping her head down and not speaking. She was always afraid that she might be dissatisfied... Now, this feeling is gone. My heart is too beautiful.

"It's so dark, what book are you reading?" Bo Mei asked softly.

"Idle books." Wen Xi replied tepidly, she obviously didn't want to pay attention to her.

"I haven't introduced myself yet."

"I'm not interested in who you are." Wen Xi interrupted what she was going to say next, and Bo Mei was stuck in the middle of the road, so she could only say: "I... I can read palms."

"When I was very young, a master showed me palmistry."

"I guess who are you waiting for? This person is related to the child in your womb." After Bo Mei finished speaking, Wen Xi glanced at her, and she said quite seriously: "The person who told my fortune, Basically, they all went into the coffin. You are so young, I advise you not to reveal the secret."

Bo Mei curled her lips and said, "I feel like I've died countless times. Every time I think I'm going to die this time, but I just can't die....I'm not trying to tell your fortune, you look like that A person whose fate is always held in his own hands."

"You look tough." Wen Xi shrugged.

"I guess you have a lot of secrets in your hands. Some secrets will eventually rot and some secrets will last forever. Some secrets make people happy and some secrets make people sad. I can help you find the one that makes you most happy. Letter It's up to you if you don't believe me." Bo Mei stretched out her hand, Wen Xi thought about it, hesitated for a moment, one child stretched out her hand to Bo Mei's side, one child stretched out, and the other children also stretched out their hand to Bo Mei with a smile.

But Bo Mei didn't look at these children, she looked at Wen Xi intently, the light of anticipation in the eyes of the children and the light in Bo Mei's eyes converged, Wen Xi's heart relaxed, and she stretched out her hand unwillingly.

Bo Mei finally took Wen Xi's hand.

"Can I take off your gloves?"

"Ah."

Slowly taking off Wen Xi's red lace gloves, Bo Mei's heart also followed the music from the band, playing to that unknown place.

Wen Xi's hands did not look pampered at all. Her palms had gun calluses, and there were some small and faint wounds on the back of her hands. The lines on her hands were very clear and the furrows were deep.

Under the dim light, Bo Mei caressed the not-so-good cocoons, which made Wen Xi itchy.

Bo Mei, who lowered her head, didn't realize that Wen Xi was looking at her with meaningful eyes.

"You have a pair of beautiful hands, there shouldn't be these invisible scars on your hands," Bo Mei said.

Wen Xi stared intently at Bo Mei's slender neck that was slightly pink, "Really. I think it's better if the scars are on the outside, but it's not good if they are on the heart."

"I saw your childhood."

"What do you see?"

"I saw a lonely little girl sitting in the garden."

"What is she doing in the garden?"

"She held a gun in her left hand and a cold knife in her right hand. She lowered her head and played with the knife and the gun by herself."

"…………"

"Her mother passed away.... Not long after, her father also passed away. She had a vicious stepmother. She thought that one day, she would kill her stepmother with her own hands."

"Shut up." A layer of blood mist slowly formed in Wen Xi's eyes, she was about to withdraw her hand when Bo Mei printed a kiss on the back of her hand, a pious and humble kiss.

If it fell into the eyes of onlookers, this kiss was extremely sudden and heart-shattering.

Undoubtedly, this kiss angered Wen Xi, and she grabbed Bo Mei with her backhand.

Bo Mei was dragged to the floor with a "plop", and she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her knees, and Wen Xi's chin was firmly pinched by Wen Xi, who stared at her intently, "Even if all the northerners come to humiliate me tonight , and it's not your turn."

The pain from her cheeks made Bo Mei groan, she could only whine in such a low voice, and couldn't say a complete sentence.

"Blue eyes, blond hair, huh." Wen Xi pinched Bo Mei's cheeks with one hand, and gently stroked her eyebrows, eyes, ears, lips and hair with one finger. After stroking it around, he stroked her eyes slightly with trembling fingers, "Blue eyes, golden hair."

Wen Xi's eyes gradually became gloomy and cold like winter, she subconsciously looked towards Zhan Banbi, Zhan's gaze was straight and upright looking at Bo Mei who was half kneeling on the ground at the moment, she looked at Wu Ershan again, and saw Wu's gaze also looked at this side without evasion, and the children surrounded them curiously.

Wen Xi's face turned cold, and his eyes became disdainful.

She didn't let go, but lowered her voice, her lips almost stuck to Bo Mei's face, and she said slowly: "Blue eyes, golden hair, you turned yourself into a monster to stay by Banbi's side. Do How does the monster feel? Do you feel that it is particularly difficult to bear the face of the past?"

Bo Mei didn't speak, she just stared at Wen Xi like this, some tears were about to overflow, but was cut to pieces by the soft knife of each word.

"Who turned you into this?" Wen Xi asked.

"..." Bo Mei's nose became sore all of a sudden. When she married Wu Ershan, she asked the same question. Who made her like this? "Of course it's you."

"...I turned you into this?"

"Yes. I died the night I left you. All you see now is my body, which happens to move like a human being. You killed me."

Bo Mei laughed while talking, she felt a sense of relief and peace of mind, how wonderful, after all, there are still people in this world who recognize her at a glance.

"I know it's ridiculous for me to say this now, but strictly speaking, I'm no longer a human being." Bo Mei just half-kneeled and looked up at Wen Xi, "Madam, can you dance with me?"

"I'm not married yet." Wen Xi touched her eye sockets again, "Blue eyes are certainly beautiful, but I still like your old eyes."

"Little Huanxi, it's the first time we meet tonight. Now I respectfully invite you to dance with me." Bo Mei stood up, making a gentlemanly invitation gesture, and the expressions on both of their faces were different. It was tense, as if saying one more word would be superfluous.

"Okay, stranger. I don't think a belly like that can dance with you."

"Miss Wen, I invite you and the baby in your womb to dance with me." Bo Mei lowered her head slightly, she reached out to hold Bo Mei's hand, and pulled her heart to her chest forcefully, Then he pressed hard on his beating heart, "Is it okay? Miss Wen."

Wen Xi's eyes couldn't escape, she nodded slightly hesitantly.

The two stood up and walked towards the center of the dance floor hand in hand. Every step they took, Zhan Banbi and Wu Ershan, who were standing not far away, would look at each other. Wu casually dragged a partner into the dance floor, and Zhan sat on the sofa , staring intently at the two who were about to dance together.

Bo Mei never felt that her back was so straight, her hands were so strong, and she never felt that she could lead Wen Xi's dance steps like this.

Wen Xi is like a white dove that has lost its way, and also like a petrel sheltering from the wind and rain in her arms. Bo Mei's full attention falls on her eyes, and she feels that Wen Xi is like a petrel in her arms. A leisurely fish in the deep sea.

Wen Xi let go of her rhythm tonight, and she seemed to give up all the dominance to Bo Mei in an instant.

"Relax a little more. You don't have to be so nervous." Wen Xi said.

Bo Mei nodded, she bent her mouth, and gently hugged Wen Xi's waist, she was a little proud, but also a little bit excited, Wen Xi turned around under her hands, and turned around again.

"We haven't danced for a long time." Bo Mei's cheek was pressed against Wen Xi's, and the two whispered to each other. On the dance floor where the light and dark intersected, a small beam of light shuttled away from them, and Zhan Banbi looked at Bo Mei like this. Mei held Wen Xi's hand in her hand, playing with it comfortably and loosely.

"Yeah." Wen Xi curled up her mouth and stepped over a beat. Bo Mei's hand stroked from her shoulder to her lower back. The two of them swayed and almost exchanged partners, but Bo Mei beat a beat. , or snatched Wen Xi back.

"I miss you. Xiao Huanxi." Bo Mei half hugged Wen Xi, Wen Xi's nose was full of Bo Mei's breath, her face froze and then became hot, her ears softened immediately, she turned her face sideways , while the cello began to play a tone softer than moonlight, she tilted her head and leaned on Bao Mei.

Bo Mei felt that Wen Xi's breath hit her chest one after another, almost shaking her whole heart.

In the past five years, I have never been so close.

As they approached, Bo Mei could hear Wen Xi's heartfelt voice.

"Is the baby good?" Bo Mei's heart overflowed from her eyes, she choked up and hugged Wen Xi, and asked softly.

"Not good. Skin. It made me want to get rid of it." Wen Xi's voice was calm, and she half-closed her eyes, lazy and dazed, "I heard that giving birth is painful. Do you want me to give birth to a child?" Is it because of the pain?"

"I……"

"You did it. Now I'm like a general who can't put on armor. I can't dance with ink, I can't hold a knife with martial arts. I feel good, tired, oh if I shoot two more shots." Wen Xi fiddled with the thin film twice. With the rose petals on Mae's chest, she whispered, "When you called me, I was worried that I would never see you again. I'm so glad I did."

They slowed down again and again, and gradually moved from one side of the dance floor to the other. Wu Ershan was thrown aside by them without paying attention. She frowned and looked at Wen Xi snuggling against Bo Mei's chest.

Bo Mei completely hugged Wen Xi in her arms, and she kissed her hair. Taking advantage of the dimming light, Bo Mei wanted to kiss Wen Xi's lips, but she turned her head and refused.

"Are you here to be a sleeper for Banbi?" Wen Xi asked with his arms around Bo Mei's waist,

"I'm just a sleeper of my heart, and my heart told me to spend a good night with you tonight." Bo Mei replied with a light smile.

"You and Banbi are finally together, are you happy now?"

"I'm not with anyone, I'm still alone." Bo Mei opened her mouth, and she looked into Wen Xi's slightly angry eyes, "Now, I'm with you."

"Oh? Together for a moment, or half a moment?"

"All the time."

The two stopped talking.

Bo Mei's cheek was pressed against Wen Xi's. In this slow dance that seemed to never end, their breath and heartbeat were gradually tied together.

----------------

The song is over.

The graceful dance and Qingge were replaced by a cheerful and mischievous jazz, and Wen Xi couldn't dance. She opened her eyes, bowed her head and left the dance floor——Bo Mei quickly followed, and Wen Xi just walked forward without looking back.

Bo Mei chased her under the eaves, and she hugged Wen Xi from behind, but Wen Xi pushed her away silently.

She hugged her up again, but Wen Xi pushed her away again.

She hugged her up again, and Wen Xi pushed her away with great force again!

Wen Xi turned around and looked at her, pointing to the end of the flower corridor, "Go and find your half-sister! Don't come and humiliate me....Did you hear that?"

"Hear what?"

"Your... half-sister is calling you."

"It's just you and me here, no one else."

"No." Wen Xi raised her head high, her hand reached out to Bo Mei's chest, and Bo Mei felt the warm hand pass through her chest, squeezing her hot heart tightly, "here There is half a wall, and Ershan."

"No...I..."

"Bo Mei." Zhan Banbi, who didn't know when he came from the corridor, called Bo Mei, "Bo Hui is here for the banquet. It's in the hall."

Bo Mei and Wen Xi looked in Zhan's direction in surprise at the same time, and Wu Ershan also ran over, "He's here, I feel that the atmosphere inside is very bad, it seems that someone has dispatched troops here."

Zhan Banbi was holding a small cloak in his hand, and she walked towards Wen Xi, "The palace is very gloomy in summer nights, I don't know how many little princes and princesses have died in this place, put it on, there are many mosquitoes, all of which are thousands of years old Yes, once you bite down, it will itch for several days. I remember when we went out to play when we were young, your skin is the most precious, once you are bitten, the mark will not go away for half a month."

Bo Mei looked at Zhan Banbi, but Zhan didn't look at her, and continued, "Don't be awkward, you two. We are best friends, we haven't changed in these years, and we won't change in the future."

"Half wall..." Bo Mei was about to say something, Zhan immediately stared into her eyes, and it was the first time that Bo Mei noticed that Zhan's always warm eyes contained the threat of thousands of troops about to slaughter the city, she was stunned, Zhan robbed Bai, "Xiao Huanxi, Bo Mei did such an exaggerated thing to you this time, you must not forgive her, I apologize to you on her behalf, you also know that she always does things without considering the consequences.  … ...I expected that she would apologize to you tonight, but I didn't expect that she still made you unhappy."

"Yes. Xiao Huanxi, I also want to apologize to you on her behalf. You know she has always been lawless and never feels that she has done anything wrong. We will take care of this child together." Wu Ershan took over the conversation, "Xiao Huanxi, sir The child is very painful, but don't be afraid, we will treat this child as our own."

"What are you going crazy about? This is me and her child..." Bo Mei was about to speak when Bo Hui's repeated urging came from the small earphone in her ear. He urged her to go to the front hall, "Xiao Huanxi , you follow me."

Wen Xi looked at Bo Mei without moving.

"Wen Xi?"

"I don't know what you guys are playing, I choose not to participate."

"I do not have……"

"Little Huanxi, we just want to take care of you and the baby in your womb, there is absolutely no malice." Wu Ershan said.

Seeing this, Zhan Banbi said, "I think the four of us should go in together. It's not good to be absent at this time."

Bo Mei wanted to pull Wenxi, but Wenxi was already being supported by Wu Ershan and walked forward.

"Why did you say those things?" Bo Mei asked Zhan back.

"Have you forgotten? No matter what mistakes you made in the past, I will take care of you. This time is no exception, this is my instinct." Zhan said in a deep voice, she went to hold Bo Mei's hand, but Bo Mei forced her Get away!

Zhan took a deep look at Bo Mei, "Believe me, you will need me very much tonight."

"Where were you when I needed you the most five years ago?!! Zhan Banbi, where were you?!"

Bo Mei herself was surprised by such an unexpected roar, let alone Zhan Banbi who was slapped heavily. She was startled at first, then showed an elusive smile, and said, "You are taking revenge." Me, you are still angry with me, you must have been expecting me to save you all the time for the past five years... You are still alive, Bao Mei, today, you are still alive, why don't you think about it... ...I have always been by your side, I have never left you. I have never betrayed you, betrayed our oath."

"No, Banbi, Wenxi is always by my side, no matter how bad I am, she will..."

"Enough!" Zhan Banbi pushed Bo Mei down against the cold palace wall, and she covered Bo Mei's mouth, "Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Bo Mei realized that she had lost her composure. She lowered her head and broke Zhan's hand, "...I'm going to see my brother."

"I think your current state is not suitable to see your brother. Tonight will be very chaotic. Your brother is just like you, a master of chaos."

"...Please, Banbi."

"I can't hear what you're saying."

"Please, Banbi, I want to see my brother."

"...Okay. I allow you to see Bo Hui."

Zhan straightened her sleeves and collar, and she still held Bo Mei's hand irresistibly. The two walked down the noisy corridor separated by a floor, neither talking nor arguing.

Wen Xi turned her head and saw Zhan Banbi holding Bo Mei's hand, and Bo Mei lowered her head slightly. The scene was the same as before, except that Zhan's lips were tightly pressed, and Bo Mei seemed to be trembling...
