Travels

"You are amazing, Wanmu! You can actually get the third place among so many talented people! It's amazing!"

In front of him was a flushed girl's face, fermenting the unique vitality of young people.

"I heard from them that the company will select the top three to form a group and release an album!"

Is it a dream? Everything around is hazy, only the girl's mouth can be seen opening and closing, and words of excitement are coming out of it.

"Being able to form a group with Xu Mengwei and Yu Qingge, I don't dare to even think about it. I'm so envious of you, Wanmu, will you live and train together in the future? Yu Qingge looks so cold, will it be difficult to get along with?"

If I can't wake up, I should have forgotten it long ago, how can I still remember these unintentional words.

"I have a hunch that you guys are going to be very popular! No, hurry up and give me a few more autographed photos, the future music superstar is about to appear hahahaha!"

"Hey, should we get close to the champion and the runner-up first? Even if the group doesn't make it to the end, it's still a personal connection, especially sister Wei, who is so amazing, she will definitely be a singer-level in the future!"

No, I haven't heard from her since then, but another one who doesn't seem to be able to get along has become the queen of the song.

How innocent I was back then, thinking that talent was the only solution to becoming popular.

"Isn't that Yu Qingge? Go for a walk and ask her where she is going. Maybe we can have a meal together."

She was pulled by the girl and went straight to the entrance of the TV station.A tall and thin girl stood there quietly, the only color in the crowd of traffic, aware of the shout behind her, she turned around, her half-length black hair flicked, revealing a side face like white jade, and her dark pupils slipped to With downcast eyes, he looked at the two of them slantingly.

Xia Wanmu's heart tightened, and he could hardly breathe when he looked at the man's glance. Many similar images overlapped and blurred, only Yu Qingge's sharp eyes became clearer and clearer.She was gasping for breath, her heart ached terribly, there was something ringing in her ears, hitting her nerves hard, the dream quickly broke and disappeared, and she disappeared without a trace.

She woke up suddenly, and found herself in a big soft bed, the ringing sound in her dream rang in her ears, and someone called her.She took a deep breath, sat up and picked up the phone, a man's gentle voice came from the microphone: "Wanmu, are you up yet?"

She lay straight back on the bed again, her empty eyes slowly became brighter, and the man was talking slowly on the phone.

"I sent you a WeChat message last night, but I didn't reply. Did you fall asleep? Was it too tiring to rush the manuscript a while ago?"

The messy thoughts were straightened out following the man's voice, and she hummed lightly to express her agreement.

"Still on the bed?" The man laughed twice, and the current caused muffled sounds in her ears, which sounded very comfortable, "Get up, slob, I'm waiting downstairs for you, I'll take you to eat something delicious , didn't you feel uncomfortable eating outside in the past few weeks?"

It was already bright, and the early autumn sun was shining without hesitation. The warm beams passed through the glass window and hit her bed. She unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth, stretched out her hand through a strip of light, and a piece of warmth covered the back of her hand. The temperature slowly flowed into my heart.

"Yeah. But I'm still on the bed." The words were flat, but there was a hint of coquettishness in the ending. The man caught this meaning, and the curvature of the corners of his lips couldn't help but rise.

"Take your time, don't rush, there's a lot of time today, I'll just wait below."

The man is neither impatient nor impatient, and shows his gentlemanly temperament in a very measured manner.They have been dating for half a year, and Xia Wanmu has never invited him to his home.This seems a little inappropriate for ordinary couples, but he thinks he is not an impatient person.His parents warned him since he was a child that as long as he is willing to give, he will be rewarded sooner or later. This sentence is also applicable to falling in love.If you insist on waiting, one day Xia Wanmu will invite him home and invite him into her heart.

There was a pleasant low laugh from the phone, the phone was hung up, the man took back the phone contentedly, immersed in the joy of getting closer, but he didn't know that the woman on the tall building was seductive in the eyes of intoxicated peach blossoms, from the beginning to the end Never had a smile.

Sen Ming took her straight to a Sichuan restaurant, and the two sat down amidst the strong aroma of pepper and hemp. The man didn't even frown, and calmly called the waiter to order.

Xia Wanmu sat aside and observed him calmly. After confirming that the calmness and smile on the man's face were not forced or pretentious, he asked him rather unexpectedly: "When can I eat spicy food?"

Sen Ming showed a smile that was sure to win, and said softly: "During the time you go out."

Xia Wanmu looked at him deeply.

I remember that the day before the relationship was confirmed, she decided to make an appointment with a Sichuan restaurant, and the two had a lively chat in the restaurant, but Sen Ming didn't move his chopsticks until she took the initiative to hold a chopstick for him, and the man ate it with a smile on his face. After falling down, his face turned red and coughed again and again in the next second, and he drank all the large pot of cold water on the table in one go.At that moment, Xia Wanmu looked at the sweat beads on his flushed face, as if he saw the shadow of another person in him.

How to choose between the person who loves you and the person you love?Well-worn questions draw a very different dividing line.Some people long to be martyred in an extreme love, but some people have already stumbled and are riddled with love.Among these two groups of people, Xia Wanmu obviously belongs to the latter.

At that moment, she thought, just promise him, the man who can do this for her will not get along too badly in the future life, she has already squandered all her love, and Sen Ming seems to be able to make up for her The missing part of the person.That's fine, after all, if you get married, how can it last if there is no love between the two people to tolerate it?She thought indifferently, could this be considered a saving of trouble?

The confession that night went smoothly, the man was very excited, and the woman was careless. Fortunately, Sen Ming has a gentle and considerate personality. After winning the title of boyfriend, he was still polite and dignified. She didn't feel uncomfortable in the next relationship.They are people who value personal space with each other, keep a proper distance, usually focus on work, make appointments every weekend to eat and watch movies or visit exhibitions and listen to lectures, and their lives are actually very comfortable.Until Xia Wanmu accepted the errand to go abroad, the two hadn't seen each other for more than a month until today's meal.

Xia Wanmu didn't miss him, but after staying in a foreign country for so long, seeing the man's handsome face through the heat rising from the dishes in front of him, he couldn't help but feel at ease, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was also changed because of this. It's more active.

"Tell me? How did you do it?" Xia Wanmu put a chopstick of Xuewang into the bowl, and the hot red oil slid down the edge of the bowl, drawing eye-catching red marks on the bottom of the porcelain white bowl. She threw it into her nose, and she couldn't hold back all of a sudden, "It's still so delicious."

Sen Ming looked at her wolfishly, with a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth: "Slow down, it's very hot."

He picked out the prickly ash in the bowl one by one, scooped up a piece of Xuewang with a spoon, blew several times before putting it into his mouth, chewing, and swallowing.Xia Wanmu looked over there and stopped his chopsticks, with his red lips slightly parted, staring at him for a long time, after making sure that he was not uncomfortable, he sighed heavily: "You look like an authentic Sichuanese now."

"Really? Is this a compliment to me?" The man looked at her with a smile in his eyes, "After three days of farewell, do you see her with admiration?"

Xia Wanmu raised his eyes and looked at him, without thinking about it, he knew that this person must have paid a lot to change his taste, and felt a little guilty when he was moved.She turned her eyes away and stared at a piece of light leaking from the edge of the table. She had complicated emotions. After a long silence, she said slowly, "You don't have to do this, I won't force you to make any changes."

"It's not forced." Sen Ming quickly took over the words, "It's not to show you anything, I'm not changing for you, it's not that complicated, I just want to do it this way."

"This is not within the scope of my sincerity in pursuing you. I'm not trying to kidnap you morally, so don't pay too much attention to it." He blinked, and his tone became light, "It's just that I discovered a delicacy that I hadn't noticed in the past few decades. Sichuan food is really delicious.”

Xia Wanmu nodded, looked at his still flushed face, couldn't say anything for a while, but felt that the scene seemed familiar, another deserted face appeared in his mind in a trance, and the smiling eyes of the woman opposite , blushed and said to her...

"Wanmu?"

Sen Ming was calling her, she came back to her senses and saw the man's puzzled face.

"What's the matter? Did you stay outside for too long, and you can't get used to eating this all at once?"

She shook her head and looked up at him with some hesitation on her face.

"Are you uncomfortable?" The man frowned, stretched out his hand to touch her forehead, but finally withdrew it restrainedly, and pressed it on the table, "Are you... Are you sick? I feel a little out of shape."

"I am fine."

Xia Wanmu put down his chopsticks, his expression condensed slightly, as if he was doing some internal struggle.Sen Ming looked at her very concerned, with a serious expression on his face, as if she was some kind of treasure.

He showed his cherishing of her clearly, and this cognition drove Xia Wanmu, making her feel that if she didn't treat him with a little sincerity, it would be the most unforgivable evil.

She suppressed the rolling emotions in her heart, lowered her eyes, and asked slowly: "My past...you know a little bit."

Sen Ming opened his eyes slightly, as if he didn't expect her to mention this.This is the tacit understanding they have maintained since they met. Xia Wanmu made it clear that he didn't want to talk about the past, so he didn't dare to ask, fearing that it would make the distance between the two people who had finally gotten closer become farther away again.

The man couldn't help straightening his body, and curled his hands on the table nervously. He cleared his throat, glanced at the face of the person opposite, and replied cautiously: "I've heard a little bit about it." Before he finished speaking, he Then hurriedly added: "You said you didn't want to talk, I won't force you, don't have any worries."

Xia Wanmu looked at him, there was a calmness in her beautiful eyes that made his heart tremble, but he could see that she was also in a battle between heaven and man, the emotions in her eyes changed again and again, but in the end the eyes became soft stand up.

"I'm thinking about how to tell you. After all, we've been dating for so long, it's time." Xia Wanmu smiled with her head down, her tone was dull. She tried her best to put on a nonchalant look, but only sent out words They all trembled imperceptibly, "Do you really want to know why I quit the entertainment industry eight years ago?"

The man frowned and looked at her, carefully choosing his words in his heart, and said slowly: "It's so long ago, it doesn't matter to me. No matter what happened in the past, it's all in the past. I only care about the present and the future." He After a pause, he looked at her with tolerance in his eyes, "If that was your wound, I don't want you to open it again."

"I can't talk about it, I just thought about it and let you know." Xia Wanmu didn't care much about his reaction, but was immersed in the past memories, trying to sort out a thought, she continued, "The draft competition In the next year, I signed a ten-year contract with the brokerage company, and it will expire soon.”

The man looked at her with shock in his eyes.
