In love with Hollywood GL
Chapter 26
For a long time after that, Xu Manxi returned to the taciturn look she had in high school. She rarely even joked with her friends anymore. Most of the time she just kept a dark face, and no one knew what she was thinking.I have never skipped class again, and I will attend every class on time.I don't go shopping with Lin Xiang or Su Xi anymore, and I will go to my uncle's house to help my cousin with tutoring on weekends, and my life is very regular and ordinary.
But I still can't quit the habit of going to the killing game every night to read short messages.
Since she gave the book to Li Bingxi, she hasn't played the game again. Looking at the unshakeable number of games, Xu Manxi feels empty in her heart.Li Bingxi only took them for a year and a half, and there was no organic class after the sophomore year, so even in school, she was rarely able to meet her, as if the world had evaporated, disappearing into Xu Manxi's life.
The night before the last final exam in the second semester of the sophomore year was a very special night for Xu Manxi.When Xu Manxi received the news from Li Bingxi, Xu Manxi was both surprised and happy, or she felt a little relieved. Although she was only a friend in the game, she might be different to Li Bingxi. Time to think of yourself.
[A bit vulgar]: Why don't I sing for you.
Guess why she is unhappy, but don't ask.When a person is sad, the best way to comfort him is not to get to the bottom of it, but to accompany him silently, which is enough.
[Literary point]: All right.
[A bit vulgar]: What do you want to hear, I will sing it to you.
[A little bit of literature and art]: "Lovely Long Live". [sun]
Xu Manxi listened to it many times with headphones on, and finally learned how to sing the chorus. It was already two o'clock in the morning, and everyone in the dormitory was in a dream. She stood in the toilet, lowered her voice, and used The voice-changing software sang this song "Lovely Long Live", hoping to make Li Bingxi happier.
[Literary point]: Sweetheart, thank you for your song.
[A bit vulgar]: Bingxi, although I don't know what you've been doing recently or what unhappy things you've encountered, I can teach you a way to get you through every unhappy moment.
[Literary point]: What is it?
[A bit vulgar]: As long as you treat every unhappy time as the worst time in your life, as long as you think about it, anyway, this is already the worst thing I have ever encountered, as long as I can take this After this matter is over, what awaits me next will only be better, not worse.Then there will be more expectations for "tomorrow".
[Little bit of literature and art]: I think maybe I should separate from him.
[A bit vulgar]: You think you should separate from him, but you don't, which means you are reluctant.Since you are reluctant, it means that you still have deep feelings for him.Since you like a person, and he likes you, then you should cherish this fate and hold him firmly.
[Literary point]: You are very different from my elder brother.
[a bit vulgar]: Huh?How to say?
[A little bit of literature and art]: My elder brother is the kind of person who is very, very defensive.He is very toward me, right or wrong.So I never show him the unhappiness I encountered when I was in love.Because he will definitely tell me that whoever makes you unhappy, you will kick him.
[a bit vulgar]: It's because I'm also a woman, so I can feel that breaking up won't make you happier.
Li Bingxi believes in "sweetheart".After that, she asked several times to meet her and have a meal together.But all to no avail.The two of them have always only maintained the relationship between netizens.Sweetheart sometimes acted like a child, and sometimes she was unreasonably mature. Li Bingxi had no friends, and liked to hide her thoughts from anyone, but since that night, she began to rely on Sweetheart unconsciously, and would take the initiative to Tell her that she and her boyfriend are unhappy because of something, tell her that she is very happy to receive a small gift from her boyfriend, and subconsciously desire to share all the trivial things in life with her.
There is curiosity.In Li Bingxi's heart, this "sweetheart" is a mysterious girl with her unique cuteness, which reminds her of another cute girl.
But Li Bingxi was very disappointed in this relationship, and it was on her birthday.She used to not pay much attention to her birthday, and most of the time she couldn't remember her own birthday, she just mechanically accepted the blessings of her colleagues as if completing a task, and mechanically went out to eat with her family.But after falling in love, she realized that what a woman cares about is not her own birthday, but how the person she cares about celebrates her birthday.
She is neither wood nor ice, so although she can say she doesn't care, she can't really laugh at the fact that her boyfriend forgot her birthday.
Li Yingqi asked her why she didn't go out to dinner with her boyfriend to celebrate. She only said that she had made an appointment to have dinner at night. Naturally, Li Yingqi didn't think much about it. In his heart, his sister was definitely the dominant person in the relationship, but he never thought of it. The road of this relationship has been very difficult, and it has always been Li Bingxi's unilateral contribution.
Fearing that her family would be suspicious, she booked a room in the hotel alone and celebrated her birthday on this night alone.
Thinking about it carefully, this relationship is not even a relationship in the objective sense. Chen Lie's indifference and alienation towards her made her feel that she was always in unrequited love.Over the past two years, let alone hugs or kisses, the number of times they even hold hands is very limited.From the beginning to the end, she was the only one who got stuck in it.
[Literary point]: He forgot my birthday.
At that time, Xu Manxi was reading in the dormitory, and when she saw the message from Li Bingxi, she immediately closed the book.
[a bit vulgar]: Be patient, maybe he just wants to surprise you^^.
[Literary point]: Several times, I thought about breaking up.But just like a killing game, the moment the knife falls, it can never be changed.
[A bit vulgar]: Bingxi, where are you now?
Li Bingxi drank a lot of wine, wanting alcohol to paralyze her nerves temporarily. She has always lived too cautiously and too step by step. In the eyes of everyone, she is decisive, smart, alert, and resolute. It seems that she will never be caught. When reality breaks down, but every woman is vulnerable and heartbroken. Since she is used to arrogance, she can only choose to lock herself in a place where no one can see and indulge for a night. .
"Excuse me, are you Miss Li Bingxi?" Li Bingxi had her hair loose and her cheeks were flushed from drunkenness. She looked at the man in front of her and frowned.
"It's me. You are?"
The little brother handed the thermos to Li Bingxi: "I am a staff member of the restaurant. This is prepared for you by a man named Chen Lie and delivered to us. Please keep it. Ms. Li, I wish you a happy birthday."
After closing the door and opening the lunch box, the steaming noodles warmed Li Bingxi's almost frozen heart. The scent of chopped green onion and eggs complemented each other perfectly. She picked up the chopsticks and picked up the long-lived noodles, which were six or seven meters long, and looked at the noodles The words engraved on it brought a long-lost smile on the corner of his mouth.
——My lovely Miss Bingxi, because of work, I can't be by your side to celebrate this birthday with you, and I want to give you a surprise, so I didn't call you, shouldn't I be crying?I believe my lovely girlfriend will be able to feel my love for her.Happy birthday, Her Majesty the Queen.
The sound of the doorbell interrupted Li Bingxi's thoughts again. This time, a bunch of little brothers holding flowers appeared in front of her.
99 roses symbolize eternal love.The card said HappyBirthdaytomyCuteGirl, she hugged the flowers in her arms, and suddenly felt that it was all worth it.
"Excuse me, thank you."
At the entrance of the hotel, Xu Manxi gave the tip to the restaurant and the florist, thanked them, and asked them about Li Bingxi's reaction after receiving the noodles and flowers. She was relieved only after she was sure that she was happy at the moment.
"Manxi, why do you want Bingxi's boyfriend's phone number?" Li Yingqi was at a loss when he received Xu Manxi's call.
Xu Manxi knew that it was not so easy to fabricate a lie this time, so she simply told him the truth.Li Yingqi on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and finally said: "I will send you Chen Lie's number on WeChat later."
"Brother Li, thank you."
"Manxi, this weekend, if you are free, let's meet up."
Premonitioning what he would say, Xu Manxi hummed: "Okay."
After a phone call, Xu Manxi could understand why Li Bingxi felt so tired from this love affair. In a few words, Xu Manxi could feel that Chen Lie was an extremely incomprehensible and somewhat machismo. He had indeed forgotten Li Bingxi's birthday, but listening to what he said, he didn't seem to think it was a wrong thing.Xu Manxi didn't want to talk too much with him, so she just told him what happened tonight, to make sure that Li Bingxi would not reveal her secrets when she mentioned this matter in the future.
She looked up at the one light and turned on KC.
[A bit vulgar]: Bingxi, are you asleep?
[Literary point]: Not yet, thank you sweetheart, you are really my lucky star.
[A bit vulgar]: [Question] Did he really prepare a birthday surprise for you?
[Literary point]: Yes.
[a bit vulgar]: Are you happy?
[Literary point]: Very happy.
[A bit vulgar]: You are not allowed to drink when you are happy! [crazy]
[Literary point]: How do you know I'm drinking?
[a bit vulgar]: I know now. [Smile]
[Little bit of literature and art]: [Arrogance] The bad girl deliberately lied to me.Well, I promise you I won't drink any more.Now I'm ready to go to bed, thank you sweetheart for the good luck today, good night!
When I saw Li Yingqi, the weather was fine, the sun was shining brightly, and there were no clouds in the sky.Xu Hao is going to take the college entrance examination soon, and he is preparing for the competition with all his strength recently. Xu Manxi greeted his aunt and said that there were some things in the school that he couldn't get away from, so he squeezed time to meet Li Yingqi.It was the same as when I saw him for the first time. You couldn't tell that he was in his 30s. If he put on a school uniform, no one would doubt him when he walked to the campus and said he was a college student who had just entered school.From this it can be seen that God really favors the people of the Li family.
Xu Manxi doesn't like to drink coffee, because she always thinks it's a drink from the West, and only foreigners like to drink it, so she would rather drink tea than coffee.
"Recently, Yingxu often mentions you on the phone, saying that she misses Miss Manxi very much." Li Yingqi stirred the coffee with a spoon, added some milk, and mixed with the strong and bitter coffee, it had a special taste.
"He also often sends me WeChat messages. It can be seen that he is very happy in college." Xu Manxi said.
"What about you?" Li Yingqi put down the spoon in his hand, staring at her with deep eyes, "Manxi, are you happy?"
Xu Manxi stroked her hair and asked in confusion, "Why do you suddenly ask like this?"
Li Yingqi took a sip of the coffee, suddenly felt the bitterness of the coffee lingering in his heart, spreading, lingering: "Manxi, have you ever heard such a saying that there are three things in this world that cannot be hidden?" , one is poverty, one is coughing, and the other is love. There is another saying that those who are obsessed with the authorities can see clearly. My silly sister may still be kept in the dark, but I am different from her. I am an outsider. I can see clearly .”
Xu Manxi slightly parted her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but she just looked into Li Yingqi's eyes, and finally just shook her head.
"I still remember the first time I saw you two years ago, Manxi, you were as beautiful as a fairy walking out of a painting, which made me feel the beauty of being untouched by the world. So I want to get close to you, to be with you You become friends." Li Yingqi tilted her head, the corners of her eyes and brows were filled with sadness, "Actually, it seems to outsiders that this is a sign of chasing girls, but I don't want to make such a rigid definition into a pursuit. In this world, If a man wants to get close to a girl he likes, must he have a strong purpose? At least I don't."
"Later when I got along with you, I saw a lot of surprises in you. Your sincerity, your enthusiasm, all deeply moved me, and made me feel that it was the right decision for me to approach you without hesitation. They all said If you make friends with a very warm person, then he will also become warm, there is nothing wrong with that.”
"I like you very much. I like you very much. For me, I think you are like another sister who is not related to me by blood in this world. It makes me want to care and care. In my heart, you and Bingxi is the same, instead of saying that I like you, it is better to say that I like you. Therefore, life is so wonderful, I never think that likes need to be divided into different types, all likes in the world are similar, and it is not Only love between lovers is the most precious."
"Manxi, you have never experienced poverty, and you don't have a cough now, but there is a third thing you can't hide."
"That is, your love for Bingxi."
A handsome boy in a cafe sits in front of the piano, his fingertips jumping on the black and white keys, playing moving pieces one after another.
Every word of Li Yingqi is like a raindrop, tick tock, mixed with salty and slightly bitter taste, falling on the tip of Xu Manxi's heart.And she just lowered her head without saying a word.
"As an elder brother, my biggest wish for my younger sister is that she can find a good family and live a life of peace and happiness. So if it was me before, I would definitely clear all obstacles for her on this road. But Now, I don't know how to face you. Manxi, you know, although you are young, in my heart, you are an amazing girl. You are absolutely, absolutely not an obstacle to Bingxi, you are a gift from God Treasure for her."
"Brother Li, I'm sorry."
But Li Yingqi laughed. He nodded and said, "You really should apologize, because whether it's me or Yingxu, it's just an excuse for you to get close to Bingxi." Seeing that Xu Manxi apologized sincerely, not with her Just kidding, he restrained his joking tone and said seriously, "But if you really feel sorry, you should be brave. The Xu Manxi I know is by no means a person willing to admit defeat."
Xu Manxi clasped her hands tightly, her knuckles turned white due to excessive strength: "Brother Li, I have seen a movie. At the wedding of the heroine, the hero said, when you really, really like someone, when you watch Seeing that she is loved by others, you will sincerely wish her happiness and joy forever."
"Actually, it's not that difficult."
On the way back, Xu Manxi thought a lot. Getting Li Yingqi's understanding was something she didn't expect. After all, she had never longed for the understanding of others, even Lin Xiang, for such a relationship. One day she will be able to fully understand her own attachment.
Therefore, when you feel isolated and helpless, someone suddenly stands up and encourages you, which can be regarded as a surprise.Li Yingqi is a friend worthy of his heart. In the end, although she failed to tell Li Bingxi her heart, God treated her well, at least bestowing her with a sincere friendship.
After that, Xu Manxi didn't see Li Yingqi again for a long time. Although he still contacted Li Yingxu occasionally, the two brothers and sister Li Yingqi really seemed to have evaporated from the world. There was no phone call, no message, and no murder game.
After the senior year, everyone became very busy, busy with public examinations, job hunting, and postgraduate entrance examinations. Susie was happy to be free. In her words, the most beautiful years of a girl are these few years. She doesn't want to All wasted on exams.So she didn't do anything, just called her little sister to eat, drink and have fun every day, and planned to go to her father's company for a few years after graduation and get married.
"Xixi, uncle is going crazy, don't you really think about going abroad?" It was still in the small pavilion in front of Luoxue Lake, exactly the same as the freshman meeting.
"Not consider."
"You want to give up such a good opportunity just because of that Li Yingxu?"
"It's not just for anyone, it's just what I have promised, and I have to do it." Xu Manxi said, "And in many cases, once you choose to go abroad, it is very difficult to come back. Our country is still working hard. If I are to export a rare talent like me, it will definitely cause great losses.”
Lin Xiang rolled his eyes: "Here it is again, every time it's so rude."
"Tsinghua University is also very good. I am very happy that the school is willing to give me a place for insurance research."
When you can only make the second best choice, instead of blaming others, it is better to accept it calmly.Life always faces some choices. Everyone thinks that choosing A will make you happier, but due to some force majeure, you can only choose B. At this time, complaining will not make you happier.
Xu's father was of course angry, including Xu Mengshu, who did not understand Xu Manxi's decision this time. The Ivy League was her dream all along. Now that she had this opportunity, she had no reason to give up.But everyone has the right to make decisions about their own lives, and Xu Manxi has it too, so whether it's a parent or an elder brother, even if they are angry or dissatisfied, they can only accept it.
This year can be regarded as the most popular year for the Department of Chemistry. 25 of the [-] graduate students entered the interview, of which [-] were admitted to our school, and the other [-] chose Fudan University, and some chose Zhejiang University and other famous schools. Counselor Naturally, she was happy, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of bonuses for her in the school this time.
"Hey, the list of tutor assignments for the thesis has been announced. Your tutor is actually a paralyzed face. Haha, please ask yourself!" Susie said gloatingly.
Facial Paralysis Zhang is the best teacher they have encountered in the past four years, which can almost be described as "inhumane" and "killing and decisive". The degree of horror is far beyond people's imagination. .The facial paralysis chapter is a standard Virgo, and the requirement for perfection is almost perverted. When answering the paper, every period can find faults. For example, the circle with a certain period must be blocked, and it cannot be left blank, let alone click a point directly. It's all his criteria.
"You seem to have forgotten who is the only reason for our facial paralysis chapter not to have facial paralysis?" Xu Manxi snorted softly.
"!!" Susie woke up like a dream.
The facial paralyzed chapter took them for three years, and in these three years, Susie only saw him smile at one person, and that person was Xu Manxi!
Xu Manxi took a sip of water, smiling and looking at Fengyun as the only one who respects me, Su Qian felt angry when she thought of this, they are all beauties, why do the teachers only have a preference for Xu Manxi, so they had no choice but to attack her Said: "Every time I see you drinking water from a bowl, I can't help but think of the little piggies in the pigsty."
After Xu Manxi finished drinking, she cleaned the bowl and locked it in the cabinet. This was a gift from Li Bingxi when she went out to play with Li Bingxi back then. She kept it with her for so many years and used her to drink water, which was obviously mineral water. , but the taste will be different when you drink it, as if she is by your side, as if it happened yesterday that she touched her head and said she was a good girl.
"If you and I drink water from a bowl at the same time, it just happens to explain two different realms." Xu Manxi glanced at her, "One has a face as small as a slap, and the other has a face as big as a bowl."
"Hmph!" He bullied her again with the fact that she had a big face, "Don't be complacent, my tutor is Teacher Li, he must be much more amiable than Zhang Zhang!" Su Qian said angrily.
It's been a long time since I heard these three words. Xu Manxi froze for a moment in packing the books, and then quickly returned to her original state. She just said lightly, "Not necessarily."
The teacher's most taboo is selfishness, which is not false at all.Too many students regard the teacher's occasional gentleness as special preferential treatment. In fact, for them, every student is just a passer-by who will stay for four years. They have long been immune to the teacher-student relationship. There is no special love for any of them.
All self-righteousness is self-indulgence.
After that, Xu Manxi once met Li Bingxi at school. On the way to the library, Li Bingxi was still beautiful and cold. Xu Manxi watched her coming from a distance, thinking of dozens of ways to say hello , should you be more intimate, or polite, warm, or natural?But when the two of them really passed each other, she just said hello to Mr. Li, and Li Bingxi just nodded.
It is the most common teacher-student relationship.Only at that time, Xu Manxi could deeply feel how ridiculous what she thought was the slight difference in Li Bingxi's heart.
The list of the defense team came out, and Xu Manxi was assigned to Li Bingxi's group. She didn't fall asleep that night, and she lay on the bed and memorized the defense draft dozens of times to make sure that she would not make mistakes the next day.And list the questions that each member of the defense committee may ask, and strive to be foolproof.
In fact, things like defending, as long as they are not too bad, they can basically pass. In addition, Xu Manxi's knowledge is solid, and he has been recommended to Tsinghua's graduate students, so it is even more impossible not to pass.
And she herself doesn't care about the results of the defense at all, it doesn't matter to her at all.
The only thing she cares about is whether she can show Li Bingxi her best side.
The reason why a person cares about something in particular is because the person you care about is also involved in it.
But when you are looking forward to something, especially looking forward to meeting someone, whether it is this thing or this person, it will disappoint you to some extent, just because you have placed too high expectations.
Xu Manxi had thought about what kind of questions Li Bingxi would ask, whether it was difficult or easy, she consulted a lot of information and was very confident in her thesis.But Li Bingxi did not raise her head during the whole defense process, and the question was also asked by her teacher. She stood on the podium like a puppet who had lost her soul, and only Li Bingxi was in her eyes.
At the end of the defense, when she was sorting out the files in the afternoon, Xu Manxi felt a lump in her throat when she looked at Li Bingxi's marks for herself. Every column had higher marks than her teachers.Xu Manxi took out her mobile phone, pointed at the three words "Li Bingxi" behind the signature of the defense team leader in the lower right corner, and pressed the red button.
Li Bingxi on the screen is probably the only intersection and memory she has with her in this life.
In the evening, the class committee organized a dinner party, and the members of Fairy Club were all drunk, and they obviously had zero acceptance of the upcoming separation from Xu Manxi.
"I'm so sick, I'm dying of pain, God, take me away! Let's freeze the time at this moment when I can still see Xixi!" Several elders cried with each other in their arms, and Su Qian looked at her My stomach hurts from holding back my laughter.
"It's a great loss for Grandma Qiongyao and Taiwanese romance dramas that you didn't give birth a few years earlier." Xu Manxi raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, you can see me often in the future."
"Really?" The idiots' eyes lit up.
"Maybe in the future, CCTV's Baijia Forum will make a feature film called 'Life Winner Xu Manxi', oh yes, there will be a dash at the end to explain-Audrey Hepburn among talented women, Audrey Hepburn among beauties Heidi Ram."
The squad leader booked a private room at KTV. Su Qian thought that Xu Manxi would not like this kind of occasion, but she went with everyone uncharacteristically.
Yuan Hui's singing was ugly, and Susie, who was ugly, wanted to plug her ears, and the whole private room became chaotic with the men crying and howling.And Xu Manxi sat motionless on the sofa, looking down at the phone screen, like a sculpture.
Later, I met Lin Xiang and his family who also came to sing. Lin Xiang came to the next door to "drop in" and sit with Su Qian and Lin Xiang.Not long after, everyone in the private room, including Susie, was drunk, and die-hard fan Yuan Hui Liu Yu couldn't resist the invasion of drowsiness and started snoring.Dim lights, changing neon lights, Xu Manxi held the microphone in his hand, Lin Youjia's face gradually appeared on the screen.
"Your gaze evaporates into clouds, and only when it rains will I be able to get close."
"All beauty in imperfection."
This is the first time Lin Xiang has heard her sing. She can see her trembling eyelashes and feel her mood at this moment.This may be the heart-to-heart connection between friends for many years. Even if she doesn't say anything, she can still feel who her depression is for at the moment, and she can understand who this song is for.
"Tell her." Lin Xiang held her hand with a firm and fiery tone, "You should tell her that you love her."
Xu Manxi chuckled, "She doesn't need my love."
"Let's go back." Xu Manxi stroked her hair and lifted her bag, "I have to take graduation photos tomorrow, I don't want to wear dark circles."
"Where's Susie?"
"It's safe to be with Yuan Hui and Liu Yu, don't worry about her."
After going out, a bald man with a beer belly stood in front of them. The man was unattractive, wearing a pair of sunglasses, but he wore a suit and leather shoes on a hot day, and his leather shoes were polished. He didn't look like an ordinary person.
"I finally found the person I was looking for." The man took off his sunglasses and stared at Xu Manxi.
Xu Manxi frowned, obviously unwilling to talk to him more, took Lin Xiang's hand and prepared to go around.
"Little girl, wait."
Xu Manxi sneered, and turned to look at him: "You don't mean to sign a contract with me, do you?"
The man took out a business card from his suit pocket and handed it to her with both hands: "Your singing is beautiful. If you are willing to develop into the music world, you will be the next Teresa Teng. But it doesn't matter if you are not interested in singing. If you If you are willing to act in a movie, I can guarantee that you will be the next Brigitte Lin."
"How do you know she sang the song just now?" Lin Xiang asked unconvinced, obviously the two of them came out together, why didn't he think she sang it?
The man raised his lips and smiled, and said calmly: "Intuition."
"Your intuition is very accurate." Xu Manxi said dismissively, "but I'm sorry, I don't think Teresa Teng or Brigitte Lin are better than me, I am me, and I don't care to be the second." Say one more word, ignore Lin Xiang's pull, turn around and leave the KTV.
"I'll wait for you to change your mind at any time." The man's voice reached her ears through the corridor.
Lin Xiang followed her. She had long legs, and when she walked quickly, Lin Xiang had to trot to keep up. He finally grabbed her arm and snatched the business card from her hand. Lin Xiang said inexplicably: "God Hey, this is the boss of Xinghai Media, three of the four little female roles are artists of Xinghai, why refuse such a good opportunity, maybe you can really become the next generation of superstars."
Without saying a word, Xu Manxi snatched the business card from her hand and tore it into pieces.
"What are you doing!" Lin Xiang knelt down and picked up the pieces and put them in his bag, for fear that they would be blown away by the wind if he didn't pay attention.
"Do you think those stars are really as beautiful as they look? It's just an actor who looks at people's faces. Superstars? Do you know what kind of price we have seen those superstars pay before becoming superstars? There is a saying that is good, think To be a grandfather, you have to learn to pretend to be a grandson first. I can’t learn the flattery of the entertainment industry. So I don’t care about being a superstar, and I don’t need so many people to see my light. Is my life worthwhile? Value does not need to be proved by the affirmation of others.”
Lin Xiang made a "cut". She has been a star chaser since middle school, and she originally expected Xu Manxi to introduce some handsome boyfriends to her after she entered the entertainment industry, but now it seems that it is useless.
"Okay, okay. Then let me put away the business card for you. Maybe one day you really change your mind. Right?"
"Up to you. But not one day."
Lin Xiangnu pouted, sure enough, this is very Xu Manxi.
"Don't you want to go back to school? How do you go this way?"
"I won't go back. I just booked a hotel online. Let's sleep in the hotel tonight. I'm going to buy some clothes now."
That night was a very magical night. After 21 years of acquaintance with Xu Manxi, it was the first time that Lin Xiang saw her so unconfident. In the past, she was always narcissistic, especially for her unique appearance. The proud gesture of the proud daughter of the Vice Heaven.But she was very different that day. She would say that red is too bright, which is not good, and that white is too mournful, which is not good, and that black is too gloomy, which is not good.When the salesperson praised her for her beautiful dress, she lost her usual confidence and frowned tightly.
But Lin Xiang knew what she was doing for it, it was just for tomorrow's graduation photo.
It is said on the Internet that when they were students, the only chance for many people to be in the same frame as the person they had a crush on was when they took graduation photos, and that was almost the only moment of intersection in this life.
In the end, I chose a light pink dress, which was youthful and feminine.
It was already one o'clock in the morning when we returned to the hotel. Lin Xiang also drank some wine in the evening. Now that the alcohol was getting stronger, she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, but she still heard what Xu Manxi said, "I told her, Thank you for her teaching these four years, but she didn’t reply to my text messages.”
Lin Xiang wanted to comfort her by saying that perhaps Mr. Li was too busy to see it, but found that any comforting words would be pitiful in disguise at the moment they were spoken.So she just hugged her gently.
The next day Lin Xiang woke up before five o'clock, because the graduation photo shoot organized by the school was at seven o'clock, but she found that Xu Manxi had already put on makeup and came out of the bathroom.Not very thick, just a layer of powder, some blush, concealer to cover dark circles, nothing else.
"Did you wake up early, or haven't you slept yet?" Lin Xiang stared at her dumbfounded.
Xu Manxi tied her hair with a leather band, and said casually, "I'm not used to sleeping on a hotel bed."
Lin Xiang shook his head, and lay down on the bed like a corpse again, obviously not wanting to talk to her, she felt that she had really lost to Xu Manxi, the level of duplicity made people angry but also heartbroken.It was just a graduation photo, but she was so excited that she could stay up all night, and the dark circles under her eyes were so heavy that she could compete with the national treasure.
But life is like this, when the more you care about one thing, the more you take one thing to heart, the reality will hit you in the head at the right time and make you completely awake.
After taking graduation photos, Lin Xiang came to look for Xu Manxi in front of Luoxue Lake. Xu Manxi's face was cold, like an ice sculpture, and she couldn't tell whether she was happy or unhappy.Everyone left like birds and beasts, and Su Qian also came to Lin Xiang to make sure that Xu Manxi was accompanied, and then went to the commercial street to buy clothes with her friends in peace.
"She didn't come."
Thinking of her nervousness and excitement when she was picking clothes last night, Lin Xiang felt inexplicably sour, and smiled deliberately: "It's okay, it's the graduation season, the teachers are very busy, she didn't come, we can go to her, let's go, we Find her in the office."
"Xiangxiang, let me be quiet."
As a result of Jing Yijing, she ran into Li Yingqi just as she walked to the door of the dormitory building.After all, it has been almost a year since we met each other.
"The last time I saw you was during the summer vacation. I sent Yingxu to see you at Starbucks. It's been a year, and my hair was cut short." Li Yingqi walked side by side with her, looking like a man of talent.
"too hot."
"My sister broke up with her." Li Yingqi sighed, "I don't know why I told you this, you are only 21 years old, and you will go to Beijing to study for graduate school soon, and your future is limitless. Logically speaking, I should persuade you You, don't hang yourself on a tree, let go of the past and live well
But I still can't quit the habit of going to the killing game every night to read short messages.
Since she gave the book to Li Bingxi, she hasn't played the game again. Looking at the unshakeable number of games, Xu Manxi feels empty in her heart.Li Bingxi only took them for a year and a half, and there was no organic class after the sophomore year, so even in school, she was rarely able to meet her, as if the world had evaporated, disappearing into Xu Manxi's life.
The night before the last final exam in the second semester of the sophomore year was a very special night for Xu Manxi.When Xu Manxi received the news from Li Bingxi, Xu Manxi was both surprised and happy, or she felt a little relieved. Although she was only a friend in the game, she might be different to Li Bingxi. Time to think of yourself.
[A bit vulgar]: Why don't I sing for you.
Guess why she is unhappy, but don't ask.When a person is sad, the best way to comfort him is not to get to the bottom of it, but to accompany him silently, which is enough.
[Literary point]: All right.
[A bit vulgar]: What do you want to hear, I will sing it to you.
[A little bit of literature and art]: "Lovely Long Live". [sun]
Xu Manxi listened to it many times with headphones on, and finally learned how to sing the chorus. It was already two o'clock in the morning, and everyone in the dormitory was in a dream. She stood in the toilet, lowered her voice, and used The voice-changing software sang this song "Lovely Long Live", hoping to make Li Bingxi happier.
[Literary point]: Sweetheart, thank you for your song.
[A bit vulgar]: Bingxi, although I don't know what you've been doing recently or what unhappy things you've encountered, I can teach you a way to get you through every unhappy moment.
[Literary point]: What is it?
[A bit vulgar]: As long as you treat every unhappy time as the worst time in your life, as long as you think about it, anyway, this is already the worst thing I have ever encountered, as long as I can take this After this matter is over, what awaits me next will only be better, not worse.Then there will be more expectations for "tomorrow".
[Little bit of literature and art]: I think maybe I should separate from him.
[A bit vulgar]: You think you should separate from him, but you don't, which means you are reluctant.Since you are reluctant, it means that you still have deep feelings for him.Since you like a person, and he likes you, then you should cherish this fate and hold him firmly.
[Literary point]: You are very different from my elder brother.
[a bit vulgar]: Huh?How to say?
[A little bit of literature and art]: My elder brother is the kind of person who is very, very defensive.He is very toward me, right or wrong.So I never show him the unhappiness I encountered when I was in love.Because he will definitely tell me that whoever makes you unhappy, you will kick him.
[a bit vulgar]: It's because I'm also a woman, so I can feel that breaking up won't make you happier.
Li Bingxi believes in "sweetheart".After that, she asked several times to meet her and have a meal together.But all to no avail.The two of them have always only maintained the relationship between netizens.Sweetheart sometimes acted like a child, and sometimes she was unreasonably mature. Li Bingxi had no friends, and liked to hide her thoughts from anyone, but since that night, she began to rely on Sweetheart unconsciously, and would take the initiative to Tell her that she and her boyfriend are unhappy because of something, tell her that she is very happy to receive a small gift from her boyfriend, and subconsciously desire to share all the trivial things in life with her.
There is curiosity.In Li Bingxi's heart, this "sweetheart" is a mysterious girl with her unique cuteness, which reminds her of another cute girl.
But Li Bingxi was very disappointed in this relationship, and it was on her birthday.She used to not pay much attention to her birthday, and most of the time she couldn't remember her own birthday, she just mechanically accepted the blessings of her colleagues as if completing a task, and mechanically went out to eat with her family.But after falling in love, she realized that what a woman cares about is not her own birthday, but how the person she cares about celebrates her birthday.
She is neither wood nor ice, so although she can say she doesn't care, she can't really laugh at the fact that her boyfriend forgot her birthday.
Li Yingqi asked her why she didn't go out to dinner with her boyfriend to celebrate. She only said that she had made an appointment to have dinner at night. Naturally, Li Yingqi didn't think much about it. In his heart, his sister was definitely the dominant person in the relationship, but he never thought of it. The road of this relationship has been very difficult, and it has always been Li Bingxi's unilateral contribution.
Fearing that her family would be suspicious, she booked a room in the hotel alone and celebrated her birthday on this night alone.
Thinking about it carefully, this relationship is not even a relationship in the objective sense. Chen Lie's indifference and alienation towards her made her feel that she was always in unrequited love.Over the past two years, let alone hugs or kisses, the number of times they even hold hands is very limited.From the beginning to the end, she was the only one who got stuck in it.
[Literary point]: He forgot my birthday.
At that time, Xu Manxi was reading in the dormitory, and when she saw the message from Li Bingxi, she immediately closed the book.
[a bit vulgar]: Be patient, maybe he just wants to surprise you^^.
[Literary point]: Several times, I thought about breaking up.But just like a killing game, the moment the knife falls, it can never be changed.
[A bit vulgar]: Bingxi, where are you now?
Li Bingxi drank a lot of wine, wanting alcohol to paralyze her nerves temporarily. She has always lived too cautiously and too step by step. In the eyes of everyone, she is decisive, smart, alert, and resolute. It seems that she will never be caught. When reality breaks down, but every woman is vulnerable and heartbroken. Since she is used to arrogance, she can only choose to lock herself in a place where no one can see and indulge for a night. .
"Excuse me, are you Miss Li Bingxi?" Li Bingxi had her hair loose and her cheeks were flushed from drunkenness. She looked at the man in front of her and frowned.
"It's me. You are?"
The little brother handed the thermos to Li Bingxi: "I am a staff member of the restaurant. This is prepared for you by a man named Chen Lie and delivered to us. Please keep it. Ms. Li, I wish you a happy birthday."
After closing the door and opening the lunch box, the steaming noodles warmed Li Bingxi's almost frozen heart. The scent of chopped green onion and eggs complemented each other perfectly. She picked up the chopsticks and picked up the long-lived noodles, which were six or seven meters long, and looked at the noodles The words engraved on it brought a long-lost smile on the corner of his mouth.
——My lovely Miss Bingxi, because of work, I can't be by your side to celebrate this birthday with you, and I want to give you a surprise, so I didn't call you, shouldn't I be crying?I believe my lovely girlfriend will be able to feel my love for her.Happy birthday, Her Majesty the Queen.
The sound of the doorbell interrupted Li Bingxi's thoughts again. This time, a bunch of little brothers holding flowers appeared in front of her.
99 roses symbolize eternal love.The card said HappyBirthdaytomyCuteGirl, she hugged the flowers in her arms, and suddenly felt that it was all worth it.
"Excuse me, thank you."
At the entrance of the hotel, Xu Manxi gave the tip to the restaurant and the florist, thanked them, and asked them about Li Bingxi's reaction after receiving the noodles and flowers. She was relieved only after she was sure that she was happy at the moment.
"Manxi, why do you want Bingxi's boyfriend's phone number?" Li Yingqi was at a loss when he received Xu Manxi's call.
Xu Manxi knew that it was not so easy to fabricate a lie this time, so she simply told him the truth.Li Yingqi on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and finally said: "I will send you Chen Lie's number on WeChat later."
"Brother Li, thank you."
"Manxi, this weekend, if you are free, let's meet up."
Premonitioning what he would say, Xu Manxi hummed: "Okay."
After a phone call, Xu Manxi could understand why Li Bingxi felt so tired from this love affair. In a few words, Xu Manxi could feel that Chen Lie was an extremely incomprehensible and somewhat machismo. He had indeed forgotten Li Bingxi's birthday, but listening to what he said, he didn't seem to think it was a wrong thing.Xu Manxi didn't want to talk too much with him, so she just told him what happened tonight, to make sure that Li Bingxi would not reveal her secrets when she mentioned this matter in the future.
She looked up at the one light and turned on KC.
[A bit vulgar]: Bingxi, are you asleep?
[Literary point]: Not yet, thank you sweetheart, you are really my lucky star.
[A bit vulgar]: [Question] Did he really prepare a birthday surprise for you?
[Literary point]: Yes.
[a bit vulgar]: Are you happy?
[Literary point]: Very happy.
[A bit vulgar]: You are not allowed to drink when you are happy! [crazy]
[Literary point]: How do you know I'm drinking?
[a bit vulgar]: I know now. [Smile]
[Little bit of literature and art]: [Arrogance] The bad girl deliberately lied to me.Well, I promise you I won't drink any more.Now I'm ready to go to bed, thank you sweetheart for the good luck today, good night!
When I saw Li Yingqi, the weather was fine, the sun was shining brightly, and there were no clouds in the sky.Xu Hao is going to take the college entrance examination soon, and he is preparing for the competition with all his strength recently. Xu Manxi greeted his aunt and said that there were some things in the school that he couldn't get away from, so he squeezed time to meet Li Yingqi.It was the same as when I saw him for the first time. You couldn't tell that he was in his 30s. If he put on a school uniform, no one would doubt him when he walked to the campus and said he was a college student who had just entered school.From this it can be seen that God really favors the people of the Li family.
Xu Manxi doesn't like to drink coffee, because she always thinks it's a drink from the West, and only foreigners like to drink it, so she would rather drink tea than coffee.
"Recently, Yingxu often mentions you on the phone, saying that she misses Miss Manxi very much." Li Yingqi stirred the coffee with a spoon, added some milk, and mixed with the strong and bitter coffee, it had a special taste.
"He also often sends me WeChat messages. It can be seen that he is very happy in college." Xu Manxi said.
"What about you?" Li Yingqi put down the spoon in his hand, staring at her with deep eyes, "Manxi, are you happy?"
Xu Manxi stroked her hair and asked in confusion, "Why do you suddenly ask like this?"
Li Yingqi took a sip of the coffee, suddenly felt the bitterness of the coffee lingering in his heart, spreading, lingering: "Manxi, have you ever heard such a saying that there are three things in this world that cannot be hidden?" , one is poverty, one is coughing, and the other is love. There is another saying that those who are obsessed with the authorities can see clearly. My silly sister may still be kept in the dark, but I am different from her. I am an outsider. I can see clearly .”
Xu Manxi slightly parted her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but she just looked into Li Yingqi's eyes, and finally just shook her head.
"I still remember the first time I saw you two years ago, Manxi, you were as beautiful as a fairy walking out of a painting, which made me feel the beauty of being untouched by the world. So I want to get close to you, to be with you You become friends." Li Yingqi tilted her head, the corners of her eyes and brows were filled with sadness, "Actually, it seems to outsiders that this is a sign of chasing girls, but I don't want to make such a rigid definition into a pursuit. In this world, If a man wants to get close to a girl he likes, must he have a strong purpose? At least I don't."
"Later when I got along with you, I saw a lot of surprises in you. Your sincerity, your enthusiasm, all deeply moved me, and made me feel that it was the right decision for me to approach you without hesitation. They all said If you make friends with a very warm person, then he will also become warm, there is nothing wrong with that.”
"I like you very much. I like you very much. For me, I think you are like another sister who is not related to me by blood in this world. It makes me want to care and care. In my heart, you and Bingxi is the same, instead of saying that I like you, it is better to say that I like you. Therefore, life is so wonderful, I never think that likes need to be divided into different types, all likes in the world are similar, and it is not Only love between lovers is the most precious."
"Manxi, you have never experienced poverty, and you don't have a cough now, but there is a third thing you can't hide."
"That is, your love for Bingxi."
A handsome boy in a cafe sits in front of the piano, his fingertips jumping on the black and white keys, playing moving pieces one after another.
Every word of Li Yingqi is like a raindrop, tick tock, mixed with salty and slightly bitter taste, falling on the tip of Xu Manxi's heart.And she just lowered her head without saying a word.
"As an elder brother, my biggest wish for my younger sister is that she can find a good family and live a life of peace and happiness. So if it was me before, I would definitely clear all obstacles for her on this road. But Now, I don't know how to face you. Manxi, you know, although you are young, in my heart, you are an amazing girl. You are absolutely, absolutely not an obstacle to Bingxi, you are a gift from God Treasure for her."
"Brother Li, I'm sorry."
But Li Yingqi laughed. He nodded and said, "You really should apologize, because whether it's me or Yingxu, it's just an excuse for you to get close to Bingxi." Seeing that Xu Manxi apologized sincerely, not with her Just kidding, he restrained his joking tone and said seriously, "But if you really feel sorry, you should be brave. The Xu Manxi I know is by no means a person willing to admit defeat."
Xu Manxi clasped her hands tightly, her knuckles turned white due to excessive strength: "Brother Li, I have seen a movie. At the wedding of the heroine, the hero said, when you really, really like someone, when you watch Seeing that she is loved by others, you will sincerely wish her happiness and joy forever."
"Actually, it's not that difficult."
On the way back, Xu Manxi thought a lot. Getting Li Yingqi's understanding was something she didn't expect. After all, she had never longed for the understanding of others, even Lin Xiang, for such a relationship. One day she will be able to fully understand her own attachment.
Therefore, when you feel isolated and helpless, someone suddenly stands up and encourages you, which can be regarded as a surprise.Li Yingqi is a friend worthy of his heart. In the end, although she failed to tell Li Bingxi her heart, God treated her well, at least bestowing her with a sincere friendship.
After that, Xu Manxi didn't see Li Yingqi again for a long time. Although he still contacted Li Yingxu occasionally, the two brothers and sister Li Yingqi really seemed to have evaporated from the world. There was no phone call, no message, and no murder game.
After the senior year, everyone became very busy, busy with public examinations, job hunting, and postgraduate entrance examinations. Susie was happy to be free. In her words, the most beautiful years of a girl are these few years. She doesn't want to All wasted on exams.So she didn't do anything, just called her little sister to eat, drink and have fun every day, and planned to go to her father's company for a few years after graduation and get married.
"Xixi, uncle is going crazy, don't you really think about going abroad?" It was still in the small pavilion in front of Luoxue Lake, exactly the same as the freshman meeting.
"Not consider."
"You want to give up such a good opportunity just because of that Li Yingxu?"
"It's not just for anyone, it's just what I have promised, and I have to do it." Xu Manxi said, "And in many cases, once you choose to go abroad, it is very difficult to come back. Our country is still working hard. If I are to export a rare talent like me, it will definitely cause great losses.”
Lin Xiang rolled his eyes: "Here it is again, every time it's so rude."
"Tsinghua University is also very good. I am very happy that the school is willing to give me a place for insurance research."
When you can only make the second best choice, instead of blaming others, it is better to accept it calmly.Life always faces some choices. Everyone thinks that choosing A will make you happier, but due to some force majeure, you can only choose B. At this time, complaining will not make you happier.
Xu's father was of course angry, including Xu Mengshu, who did not understand Xu Manxi's decision this time. The Ivy League was her dream all along. Now that she had this opportunity, she had no reason to give up.But everyone has the right to make decisions about their own lives, and Xu Manxi has it too, so whether it's a parent or an elder brother, even if they are angry or dissatisfied, they can only accept it.
This year can be regarded as the most popular year for the Department of Chemistry. 25 of the [-] graduate students entered the interview, of which [-] were admitted to our school, and the other [-] chose Fudan University, and some chose Zhejiang University and other famous schools. Counselor Naturally, she was happy, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of bonuses for her in the school this time.
"Hey, the list of tutor assignments for the thesis has been announced. Your tutor is actually a paralyzed face. Haha, please ask yourself!" Susie said gloatingly.
Facial Paralysis Zhang is the best teacher they have encountered in the past four years, which can almost be described as "inhumane" and "killing and decisive". The degree of horror is far beyond people's imagination. .The facial paralysis chapter is a standard Virgo, and the requirement for perfection is almost perverted. When answering the paper, every period can find faults. For example, the circle with a certain period must be blocked, and it cannot be left blank, let alone click a point directly. It's all his criteria.
"You seem to have forgotten who is the only reason for our facial paralysis chapter not to have facial paralysis?" Xu Manxi snorted softly.
"!!" Susie woke up like a dream.
The facial paralyzed chapter took them for three years, and in these three years, Susie only saw him smile at one person, and that person was Xu Manxi!
Xu Manxi took a sip of water, smiling and looking at Fengyun as the only one who respects me, Su Qian felt angry when she thought of this, they are all beauties, why do the teachers only have a preference for Xu Manxi, so they had no choice but to attack her Said: "Every time I see you drinking water from a bowl, I can't help but think of the little piggies in the pigsty."
After Xu Manxi finished drinking, she cleaned the bowl and locked it in the cabinet. This was a gift from Li Bingxi when she went out to play with Li Bingxi back then. She kept it with her for so many years and used her to drink water, which was obviously mineral water. , but the taste will be different when you drink it, as if she is by your side, as if it happened yesterday that she touched her head and said she was a good girl.
"If you and I drink water from a bowl at the same time, it just happens to explain two different realms." Xu Manxi glanced at her, "One has a face as small as a slap, and the other has a face as big as a bowl."
"Hmph!" He bullied her again with the fact that she had a big face, "Don't be complacent, my tutor is Teacher Li, he must be much more amiable than Zhang Zhang!" Su Qian said angrily.
It's been a long time since I heard these three words. Xu Manxi froze for a moment in packing the books, and then quickly returned to her original state. She just said lightly, "Not necessarily."
The teacher's most taboo is selfishness, which is not false at all.Too many students regard the teacher's occasional gentleness as special preferential treatment. In fact, for them, every student is just a passer-by who will stay for four years. They have long been immune to the teacher-student relationship. There is no special love for any of them.
All self-righteousness is self-indulgence.
After that, Xu Manxi once met Li Bingxi at school. On the way to the library, Li Bingxi was still beautiful and cold. Xu Manxi watched her coming from a distance, thinking of dozens of ways to say hello , should you be more intimate, or polite, warm, or natural?But when the two of them really passed each other, she just said hello to Mr. Li, and Li Bingxi just nodded.
It is the most common teacher-student relationship.Only at that time, Xu Manxi could deeply feel how ridiculous what she thought was the slight difference in Li Bingxi's heart.
The list of the defense team came out, and Xu Manxi was assigned to Li Bingxi's group. She didn't fall asleep that night, and she lay on the bed and memorized the defense draft dozens of times to make sure that she would not make mistakes the next day.And list the questions that each member of the defense committee may ask, and strive to be foolproof.
In fact, things like defending, as long as they are not too bad, they can basically pass. In addition, Xu Manxi's knowledge is solid, and he has been recommended to Tsinghua's graduate students, so it is even more impossible not to pass.
And she herself doesn't care about the results of the defense at all, it doesn't matter to her at all.
The only thing she cares about is whether she can show Li Bingxi her best side.
The reason why a person cares about something in particular is because the person you care about is also involved in it.
But when you are looking forward to something, especially looking forward to meeting someone, whether it is this thing or this person, it will disappoint you to some extent, just because you have placed too high expectations.
Xu Manxi had thought about what kind of questions Li Bingxi would ask, whether it was difficult or easy, she consulted a lot of information and was very confident in her thesis.But Li Bingxi did not raise her head during the whole defense process, and the question was also asked by her teacher. She stood on the podium like a puppet who had lost her soul, and only Li Bingxi was in her eyes.
At the end of the defense, when she was sorting out the files in the afternoon, Xu Manxi felt a lump in her throat when she looked at Li Bingxi's marks for herself. Every column had higher marks than her teachers.Xu Manxi took out her mobile phone, pointed at the three words "Li Bingxi" behind the signature of the defense team leader in the lower right corner, and pressed the red button.
Li Bingxi on the screen is probably the only intersection and memory she has with her in this life.
In the evening, the class committee organized a dinner party, and the members of Fairy Club were all drunk, and they obviously had zero acceptance of the upcoming separation from Xu Manxi.
"I'm so sick, I'm dying of pain, God, take me away! Let's freeze the time at this moment when I can still see Xixi!" Several elders cried with each other in their arms, and Su Qian looked at her My stomach hurts from holding back my laughter.
"It's a great loss for Grandma Qiongyao and Taiwanese romance dramas that you didn't give birth a few years earlier." Xu Manxi raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, you can see me often in the future."
"Really?" The idiots' eyes lit up.
"Maybe in the future, CCTV's Baijia Forum will make a feature film called 'Life Winner Xu Manxi', oh yes, there will be a dash at the end to explain-Audrey Hepburn among talented women, Audrey Hepburn among beauties Heidi Ram."
The squad leader booked a private room at KTV. Su Qian thought that Xu Manxi would not like this kind of occasion, but she went with everyone uncharacteristically.
Yuan Hui's singing was ugly, and Susie, who was ugly, wanted to plug her ears, and the whole private room became chaotic with the men crying and howling.And Xu Manxi sat motionless on the sofa, looking down at the phone screen, like a sculpture.
Later, I met Lin Xiang and his family who also came to sing. Lin Xiang came to the next door to "drop in" and sit with Su Qian and Lin Xiang.Not long after, everyone in the private room, including Susie, was drunk, and die-hard fan Yuan Hui Liu Yu couldn't resist the invasion of drowsiness and started snoring.Dim lights, changing neon lights, Xu Manxi held the microphone in his hand, Lin Youjia's face gradually appeared on the screen.
"Your gaze evaporates into clouds, and only when it rains will I be able to get close."
"All beauty in imperfection."
This is the first time Lin Xiang has heard her sing. She can see her trembling eyelashes and feel her mood at this moment.This may be the heart-to-heart connection between friends for many years. Even if she doesn't say anything, she can still feel who her depression is for at the moment, and she can understand who this song is for.
"Tell her." Lin Xiang held her hand with a firm and fiery tone, "You should tell her that you love her."
Xu Manxi chuckled, "She doesn't need my love."
"Let's go back." Xu Manxi stroked her hair and lifted her bag, "I have to take graduation photos tomorrow, I don't want to wear dark circles."
"Where's Susie?"
"It's safe to be with Yuan Hui and Liu Yu, don't worry about her."
After going out, a bald man with a beer belly stood in front of them. The man was unattractive, wearing a pair of sunglasses, but he wore a suit and leather shoes on a hot day, and his leather shoes were polished. He didn't look like an ordinary person.
"I finally found the person I was looking for." The man took off his sunglasses and stared at Xu Manxi.
Xu Manxi frowned, obviously unwilling to talk to him more, took Lin Xiang's hand and prepared to go around.
"Little girl, wait."
Xu Manxi sneered, and turned to look at him: "You don't mean to sign a contract with me, do you?"
The man took out a business card from his suit pocket and handed it to her with both hands: "Your singing is beautiful. If you are willing to develop into the music world, you will be the next Teresa Teng. But it doesn't matter if you are not interested in singing. If you If you are willing to act in a movie, I can guarantee that you will be the next Brigitte Lin."
"How do you know she sang the song just now?" Lin Xiang asked unconvinced, obviously the two of them came out together, why didn't he think she sang it?
The man raised his lips and smiled, and said calmly: "Intuition."
"Your intuition is very accurate." Xu Manxi said dismissively, "but I'm sorry, I don't think Teresa Teng or Brigitte Lin are better than me, I am me, and I don't care to be the second." Say one more word, ignore Lin Xiang's pull, turn around and leave the KTV.
"I'll wait for you to change your mind at any time." The man's voice reached her ears through the corridor.
Lin Xiang followed her. She had long legs, and when she walked quickly, Lin Xiang had to trot to keep up. He finally grabbed her arm and snatched the business card from her hand. Lin Xiang said inexplicably: "God Hey, this is the boss of Xinghai Media, three of the four little female roles are artists of Xinghai, why refuse such a good opportunity, maybe you can really become the next generation of superstars."
Without saying a word, Xu Manxi snatched the business card from her hand and tore it into pieces.
"What are you doing!" Lin Xiang knelt down and picked up the pieces and put them in his bag, for fear that they would be blown away by the wind if he didn't pay attention.
"Do you think those stars are really as beautiful as they look? It's just an actor who looks at people's faces. Superstars? Do you know what kind of price we have seen those superstars pay before becoming superstars? There is a saying that is good, think To be a grandfather, you have to learn to pretend to be a grandson first. I can’t learn the flattery of the entertainment industry. So I don’t care about being a superstar, and I don’t need so many people to see my light. Is my life worthwhile? Value does not need to be proved by the affirmation of others.”
Lin Xiang made a "cut". She has been a star chaser since middle school, and she originally expected Xu Manxi to introduce some handsome boyfriends to her after she entered the entertainment industry, but now it seems that it is useless.
"Okay, okay. Then let me put away the business card for you. Maybe one day you really change your mind. Right?"
"Up to you. But not one day."
Lin Xiangnu pouted, sure enough, this is very Xu Manxi.
"Don't you want to go back to school? How do you go this way?"
"I won't go back. I just booked a hotel online. Let's sleep in the hotel tonight. I'm going to buy some clothes now."
That night was a very magical night. After 21 years of acquaintance with Xu Manxi, it was the first time that Lin Xiang saw her so unconfident. In the past, she was always narcissistic, especially for her unique appearance. The proud gesture of the proud daughter of the Vice Heaven.But she was very different that day. She would say that red is too bright, which is not good, and that white is too mournful, which is not good, and that black is too gloomy, which is not good.When the salesperson praised her for her beautiful dress, she lost her usual confidence and frowned tightly.
But Lin Xiang knew what she was doing for it, it was just for tomorrow's graduation photo.
It is said on the Internet that when they were students, the only chance for many people to be in the same frame as the person they had a crush on was when they took graduation photos, and that was almost the only moment of intersection in this life.
In the end, I chose a light pink dress, which was youthful and feminine.
It was already one o'clock in the morning when we returned to the hotel. Lin Xiang also drank some wine in the evening. Now that the alcohol was getting stronger, she was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes, but she still heard what Xu Manxi said, "I told her, Thank you for her teaching these four years, but she didn’t reply to my text messages.”
Lin Xiang wanted to comfort her by saying that perhaps Mr. Li was too busy to see it, but found that any comforting words would be pitiful in disguise at the moment they were spoken.So she just hugged her gently.
The next day Lin Xiang woke up before five o'clock, because the graduation photo shoot organized by the school was at seven o'clock, but she found that Xu Manxi had already put on makeup and came out of the bathroom.Not very thick, just a layer of powder, some blush, concealer to cover dark circles, nothing else.
"Did you wake up early, or haven't you slept yet?" Lin Xiang stared at her dumbfounded.
Xu Manxi tied her hair with a leather band, and said casually, "I'm not used to sleeping on a hotel bed."
Lin Xiang shook his head, and lay down on the bed like a corpse again, obviously not wanting to talk to her, she felt that she had really lost to Xu Manxi, the level of duplicity made people angry but also heartbroken.It was just a graduation photo, but she was so excited that she could stay up all night, and the dark circles under her eyes were so heavy that she could compete with the national treasure.
But life is like this, when the more you care about one thing, the more you take one thing to heart, the reality will hit you in the head at the right time and make you completely awake.
After taking graduation photos, Lin Xiang came to look for Xu Manxi in front of Luoxue Lake. Xu Manxi's face was cold, like an ice sculpture, and she couldn't tell whether she was happy or unhappy.Everyone left like birds and beasts, and Su Qian also came to Lin Xiang to make sure that Xu Manxi was accompanied, and then went to the commercial street to buy clothes with her friends in peace.
"She didn't come."
