song for the city

There were small footsteps in the corridor, from far to near, the door was forcefully opened, and the faces of You Jing and the three members of the band appeared on the roof. They were noisy, breaking the slightest embarrassment in the atmosphere.

Time flowed again, and Liang Zhang's lips felt itchy, as if a feather had been brushed by.With a sudden push of his hands, he jumped up from the ground, patted the ashes on his hands, and said to the four people at the other end, "Why are you here?"

He was glad that he reacted quickly, it should be a flawless move.

With nothing in front of him, Xiang Peicai woke up like a dream, and finally realized what an uncontrollable thing he did just now. He only felt that the sky above his head had turned into a blue-black sea, and the roof had become a boat, and he was floating on it. Nowhere can be found.

"I knew you were on the rooftop!"

Xin Yu trotted over with a bunch of things, and spread things like skewers on the ground, the oily and spicy smell swept over, and the smell of butter took the upper hand.She took the seat next to Xiang Pei, hugged Xiang Pei's neck exaggeratedly, and said happily, "Uncle Xiang, happy birthday."

Liang Zhang looked helplessly at the two people opposite him, and then at himself, they seemed out of place.He was so angry that his unhappiness was written all over his face.

It was enough for Liang Zhang to be upset that Xin Yu ran over to embrace Xiang Pei, and even called him "Uncle Xiang".

He sat down in frustration, muffled, with his head drooped, and his eyes never went to Pei's side.

Pointing to Pei Shan, he pressed Xin Yu's face to let her move away from him, and then moved a little to the right: "It's not my birthday."

"You didn't do it before, but Liang Zhang won't let you pass it now!" Xin Yu pointed to the forgotten cake in the corner, "There is also a birthday cake!"

Chen Zhaonan put the beer and drinks on the ground, and said with emotion: "Unknowingly, Xiao Pei is 17 years old, and he will be an adult next year." He seemed to be sensational for a while, and continued, "I still remember the time when I just met Xiao Pei. At that time, he was not as tall as me."

Xiang Pei gave a false smile, and made a gesture to cover Chen Zhaonan's mouth: "If you dare to be nasty, I will beat you up."

You Jing opened a can of beer, laughed and said, "It's rare for him to speak human words, so I'll finish it for you."

Chen Zhaonan snatched the beer from You Jing's hand, took a sip, and sighed in satisfaction.

"I want you to talk more."

Liang Zhang still sat silently, and didn't know what they were talking about just now. He focused all his attention on the arms that Xin Yu and Xiang Pei would touch from time to time, thinking about how to squeeze in between them more naturally.

After thinking about it, I felt that this idea was ridiculous, so I had to give up.

Although he told Pei that Xin Yu was at most a younger sister to him, but Liang Zhang looked like a diaphragm, feeling that his breathing was blocked, and he was so occluded that he was crazy.

Chen Zhaonan was short-sighted, noticed that Liang Zhang was unusually silent today, and thought he was simply sleepy, so he picked up a bottle of beer from the ground and handed it to Liang Zhang: "Have some?"

In fact, the drinks on the ground were for Liang Zhang and Xin Yu. Liang Zhang had almost never had a drink, as if he had been fed by his grandfather before, so he had no impression of wine.He didn't drink alcohol either, his parents were too strict with him and could only drink milk every day, that's why he grew so tall.

He looked at the beer in Chen Zhaonan's hand, it was chilled, water droplets scrambled to slide down the surface of the bottle, Liang Zhang had long forgotten the taste of the wine.

"Don't teach him to drink." Xiang Pei interjected, ready to take the beer.

"I want to drink."

Maybe he was angry, or maybe he wanted to see if drinking alcohol could relieve his worries. Liang Zhang snatched the bottle first, and pulled the tab, only to hear a sharp bang, and the special smell of beer burst out.

Liang Zhang raised his head and drank it, leaving clear five-fingerprints on the bottle with his fingers.The cold liquid is poured into the throat with air bubbles, a novel experience, the taste is a bit astringent, but very stimulating.

It was too late to stop, Liang Zhang's well-known impulse came up, and he couldn't let it go no matter what.The rest of the people stared dumbfounded at Liang Zhang's posture of blowing the bottle, Xiang Pei was also dumbfounded.It wasn't until liquid flowed from his mouth that Xiang Pei held his wrist and said eagerly, "Enough."

"Is something wrong? Are you dizzy?" Xiang Pei held Liang Zhang's waist and asked softly in his ear.

Xiang Pei looked worried, as if he wanted to wipe the wine from Liang Zhang's mouth.

It's like this again, it's obviously impossible to like him, but he still wants to do something that disturbs his mind.

Liang Zhang pushed away towards Pei, his mind was still clear for the time being, he squeezed the can with one hand, and pulled the corner of his mouth abruptly: "Can't I drink this?"

After speaking, he strode forward without looking back downstairs.

Xiang Pei wanted to chase, You Jing took his hand and shook his head: "Let him rest alone for a while."

Early the next morning, Liang Zhang had a severe headache, and it seemed like a stick was messing around in his mind, messing up his thoughts.

When he returned to his room last night, he felt dizzy, his whole body was in a state of ecstasy, he fell asleep without washing his face.When he got up, he found that there was still snot and saliva on his face, and he got up from the bed immediately in fright.

Liang Zhang rubbed his head, dragged his legs out of bed, opened the door just in time to stand outside the door holding water to Pei.

Liang Zhang subconsciously covered his face, but felt that it was useless, so he simply revealed it.Thinking of all the bad moods last night, he said to Pei with a dry voice: "Morning."

There was hot water in Xiang Pei's hand, and there was water vapor on the side of the glass.

"Drink water." He moved the glass over.

"I don't want to drink." Liang Zhang looked away and leaned against the door frame with arms crossed.

Xiang Pei's expression was also not good, and he took a hand at the slightest disagreement, pinched Liang Zhang's face with one hand, put the cup to his mouth with the other, and said in a deep voice, "Drink."

It seemed that Liang Zhang couldn't escape this glass of water, his cheeks hurt a little, he took a step back, and said to Pei Cai, "don't feel uncomfortable."

He reluctantly took the cup, drank the hot water, and the nausea in his stomach subsided a little.

"Thanks..."

Xiang Pei showed no expression: "What can you do if you don't know how to drink? Think it's cool?"

"No, I just want to drink." Liang Zhang looked at Pei and asked, "Why do you care about me?"

Xiang Pei didn't say anything, stared at Liang Zhang with a cold face for a while, then turned and left.

He was about to go out, and when he came to the door, he turned around suddenly, his face expressionless, Liang Zhang's heart trembled, and he became frightened, afraid that he would really make Pei unhappy.

This kind of Xiang Pei reminded him of the Xiang Pei whom he met for the first time, the indifferent Xiang Pei who should not be approached by strangers.

"Of course I have no right to control you. After all, we are just roommates. When you return to Nanchuan, we will have nothing to do with each other."

His tone was flat and emotionless, as if all the relationship between the two of them before was just Liang Zhang's illusion.

It's a pity that Liang Zhang couldn't refute. What Xiang Pei told was the truth, he could only watch Xiang Pei's back disappear at the door.

The water in his hand was still hot, and Liang Zhang's skin was cold.

He stayed where he was, without responding for a long time, his limbs were stiff and heavy as lead.

Liang Zhang didn't expect that Xiang Pei would go and come back.

Panting to Pei, his face flustered, the surprise in Liang Zhang's heart gradually turned into uneasiness.

"Sister Na is in the hospital for emergency treatment, Brother Cheng let us go there."

Like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, it hit Liang Zhang right on the head.

When Liang Zhang saw Nana that day, she was indeed planning to go to the store for the last time, and the box beside her said it all.

The narrow and dilapidated shop no longer has inferior incense, no colorful decorations, just an ordinary storefront that couldn't be more ordinary.Nana is determined to make a complete break with the past, she needs courage after discarding her unbearable identity, and Ah Cheng gave her courage.

After Nana and Liang Zhang finished eating, she walked out of the street that carried her pain, and she was redeemed at that moment.But in a blink of an eye, I ran into one of her regular customers.

The regular customer was not a good guy, he was fierce and violent, seeing her leave, begged her to do it one last time, and offered a very high price, but Nana refused without hesitation, and when he couldn't do it, he started threatening.

He said that a bitch will be a bitch all her life, don't want to wear clothes to be a lover.

Nana was lying on the bed, naked, screaming in pain, she said it was rape.She had voluntarily been naked, the only time she had been forced to make her ashamed, hopeless, and self-abuse.

The ugly man's face was crowded with flesh and dust, and the skin folds were filled with the smell that made Nana sick. She almost fainted and cursed.

The man hit her and beat her half to death.The blood stained the white bed sheet red, and Nana's long nails were broken. She cherishes her nails the most, they are usually cute and caring.A piece of her hair seemed to be torn off, her eyes were blurred, and her lower body hurt the most, as if it had been torn apart.

But these are not the most important. Around the line of life and death, Nana hangs her breath, thinking only of Ah Cheng's face, he is still waiting for her to go home.

She crawled to pick up the ring that Ah Cheng gave her, the only light in her eyes at that time.

Ah Cheng sat on a chair outside the ward, haggard, as if he had aged many years overnight.His lips were chapped and his eyes were bloodshot. He didn't look much better than Nana in the inside.

"Xiao Pei, please keep an eye on her here for a while, I have to do something." Ah Cheng apologized when he saw Xiang Pei and Liang Zhang.

Xiang Pei stopped Acheng: "Brother Cheng, don't be impulsive, let's find a way slowly. Sister Na needs you."

He knew what Ah Cheng wanted to do, his woman became like this, everyone wanted to chop the perpetrator with a knife, and even crush him to ashes.

But this is not the most sensible solution, Ah Cheng's previous violent aura is back now, and Xiang Pei is afraid that he will do something stupid.

"I know. Please, Xiao Pei."

No one could stop him, Ah Cheng left, not sure what he was going to do.

The smell of disinfectant in the hospital was pungent, and the corridors were quiet. Occasionally, a few patients in wheelchairs were being pushed, or skinny men and women passed by.

Life is full of vicissitudes, too many misfortunes, Nana is just a corner of misfortune.

Liang Zhang felt pain and guilt.If he had accompanied Nana out yesterday, perhaps such a horrible thing would not have happened.

He didn't dare to go in to visit Nana, for he was afraid that his usually bright face was covered with hideous scars, and that she would stop smiling and lose the courage to live.

"Sister Na is about to welcome a new life, why does life treat her like this?" Liang Zhang leaned his head against the wall, and said weakly, he was about to cry several times, "She is going to be a bride soon, how can she dress like this?" Wedding dress?"

The people around him fell silent, but regained their confidence: "Don't worry, Sister Na will be fine, nothing can defeat her."

Xiang Pei held back his tears and held Liang Zhang's trembling hand.

Liang Zhang collapsed, his throat was sore, and he raised his arms to cover his eyes.
