When I woke up my girlfriend was gone

As the new year approaches, the advertising spaces on the bus are all pasted with traditional retro red, and the interior of the bus is also decorated with various New Year elements.

Zuo Yin looked at the armrest she was holding, on which a dedication letter was pasted.

She thinks that she is also very dedicated. She has been busy for half a year without much rest, and she is even comparable to the third year of high school.

Zuo Yin had just finished the exam week, but because the painting exhibition was due soon, she spent half a month in the studio every day, and Shen Qingzi often traveled on business as Nian Gen was approaching.

They haven't seen each other for half a month, and the only remnant of intersection is when Zuo Yin and Shen Qingzi took pictures of their completed oil paintings.

Thinking of this, the car stopped at the bus stop near Yiji Studio, and Zuo Yin also got off from this stop.The bus station here is much more festive than Zuo Yin's.

Small lanterns are hung at intervals on the station signboard. The newly unpacked lanterns bring New Year's blessings and excitement to every passenger who gets off the bus with a special flavor.

Taking advantage of the fact that everyone hadn't returned to their hometown for the New Year, Sun Yuqing organized a year-end dinner in the studio.

Zuo Yin stood under the red light at the intersection, and took out her mobile phone.

Sun Yuqing teased Shen Qingzi and asked her why she wasn't there yet.

Thinking about it, Shen Qingzi returned to City S yesterday, so she will definitely come to the dinner party today.

Zuo Yin looked at the chat records feeling lost, she was very tired after cleaning up the studio yesterday, and forgot to ask Shen Qingzi if she would come today.

Suddenly, Zuo Yin's phone vibrated.

A rabbit head jumped out and told her: [Look up]

Zuo Yin's heart skipped a beat immediately, and she raised her head according to Shen Qingzi's instructions.

Through the thick festive atmosphere, standing on the other side of the road is Shen Qingzi.

She was wearing a gray-blue coat that she had never seen before. Her long, smooth hair hung on her shoulders, revealing her slender and elegant neck.

There was a light makeup on her fair face, and her bean paste pink lips made her more gentle.

"Xiaoyin." Shen Qingzi smiled and waved to Zuoyin.

Zuo Yin watched the traffic lights turn green and walked over quickly, "Teacher."

Shen Qingzi looked at the girl standing in front of her, and found that her hair had been cut to the length of her jaw, which brought her back to the scene when she first met her in Dunhuang.

Unruly, uninhibited.

It's so lovable again.

Shen Qingzi smiled slightly, "Long time no see."

"Long time no see." Zuo Yin controlled the corners of her lips that she wanted to raise too much, and asked again, "Is the teacher finished?"

"Yeah." Shen Qingzi nodded, "It's time to pack up for the Chinese New Year. What about you?"

"After handing in the drawing, there's nothing else to do, and I'm going to celebrate the New Year steadily." Zuo Yin replied.

Shen Qingzi smiled, "That's good."

The two people who had their own thoughts continued on sentence by sentence, chatting from the road outside the studio to the lake in front of the small western-style building.

Dim lights were cast on the winding cobblestone road, printing the shadows of the two obliquely on the ground and intertwining them.

Zuo Yin saw a person standing at the door of Xiaoyanglou from a distance, and she subconsciously thought it was Zhou Lin.

Standing beside Shen Qingzi, she could slow down her pace.

"Wow, you two are too late! Walking so slowly?"

Suddenly, "Zhou Lin" who was standing at the door yelled at the two dissatisfiedly, and ran towards them wearing a large pure white down jacket.

The familiar voice made Zuo Yin startled for a moment, and then quickly recognized the black figure—Sun Yuqing.

"Why do you see that I welcome you, are you still not satisfied?" Sun Yuqing looked at Zuoyin clearly against the light and exhaled lightly.

Zuo Yin: "No, I'm very satisfied."

Sun Yuqing suddenly felt that she had gained a bit of face, and said proudly to Shen Qing, "Did you see, I am very face-saving today."

Sun Yuqing thought of something again while talking, and added: "I said Azi, Xiaoyin is always giving me face like this, can you give me a face too?"

Shen Qingzi: "Tell me."

"I want to have a drink with Xiaoyin, okay?" Sun Yuqing asked, her eyes full of anticipation.

Hearing what Sun Yuqing said, Zuoyin looked sideways at Shen Qingzi beside her.

She didn't feel unhappy because she had to get Shen Qingzi's permission to drink, but instead she felt an indescribable affection.

Shen Qingzi rolled her eyes, and told Zuo Yin: "Drink less."

"En." Zuo Yin nodded, with a smile in his eyes.

Sun Yuqing is a chatterbox, and the quiet cobblestone road is filled with her noisy voice, which is also a little more eager.

The group of three soon came to the small western building.

This is still the small western-style building that came here half a year ago, but it seems to be different from half a year ago.

The steaming hot pot infuses the spicy taste into Zuo Yin's every breath.

She looked at the old acquaintances sitting in the room and integrated into the room faster than last time.

"Oh, Xiaoyin and Azi are here, come and sit down, I'll be waiting for you two!" Wu Yuan said and put a plate full of mutton in his hand.

"Wu Yuan has been craving this plate of meat for a long time." Li Ming said with a smile.

"If you want to eat, order it early, you don't have to wait for us." Shen Qingzi said, sitting next to Zuo Yin as if nothing had happened but had planned for a long time.

Zuo Yin's heart beat endlessly in the hot and spicy flavor mixed with a touch of fragrance.

"That's not okay, there's no reason to leave you guys behind." Zhou Lin's voice came from the small kitchen inside, Zuo Yin saw the door curtain on the opposite door frame move, and Zhou Lin came out with a chilled drink .

She seemed to have been well-groomed, and the camel wool skirt showed off her fine figure.The seaweed-like long hair is thick and soft, paired with retro crimson lips, intellectual and sexy.

Zuo Yin lowered his head and glanced at the black sweater that he didn't change because of eating hot pot today, and couldn't help but clenched the chopsticks in his hand.

"A Lin, I'll help you!" Sun Yuqing said and stood up to help her share the drink in her hand.

Zhou Lin didn't let her go, she looked at Shen Qingzi, who was sitting with Zuo Yin, holding a few cans of beer and putting them in front of Sun Yuqing, and said, "I also specially reserved a good seat for A Zi, and it turned out to be a good deal for you. "

"Hey." Sun Yuqing smiled, she was so focused on the wine that she didn't hear the dissatisfaction in Zhou Lin's words.

"Hey, I heard from Yuqing that Xiaoyin has reported for the National Oil Painting Exhibition, how are the preparations going?" Wu Yuan was concerned about his little junior sister while his meat was not cooked yet.

Zuo Yin: "I've already shown it to the teacher. I handed in the manuscript last week, and this morning I received the email of passing the primary election."

The voice was faint, and there was a feeling of being flattered or humiliated.

Wu Yuan let out a "wow", "Amazing, this is on par with your Teacher Shen!"

"No way." Zuo Yin took a sip of wine in embarrassment, but she secretly watched Shen Qingzi's reaction from the corner of her eye.

The warm yellow light dispelled the winter cold, Shen Qingzi's lips curled up slightly, and she said to Wu Yuan, "She can surpass me."

Hearing what Shen Qingzi said, Wu Yuan booed and said, "Wow, the teacher has already spoken, and Xiaoyin won't issue a military order to express it? Come here!"

As he spoke, Wu Yuan picked up the wine bottle and added wine to Zuo Yin's glass, which he took two sips of.

Shen Qingzi reacted one step faster than Zuo Yin, and pressed down the wine glass in Zuo Yin's hand first, "No need to express, she will definitely be fine."

The pungentness of the alcohol exploded on the tip of Zuo Yin's tongue, and electric current burst out from the overlapping fingers of her and Shen Qingzi, mixing with the alcohol caused numbness all the way.

Before taking a few sips of wine, Zuo Yin felt his cheeks become slightly hot.

"Did you see, the teacher has spoken! A Zi, you are too protective!" Li Ming joked with a smile, and the room was full of rough and hearty laughter from him and Wu Yuan.

The atmosphere that was still not happy just now was instantly ignited, and the boiling hot pot was bubbling, making the atmosphere in the room more lively and lively.

Everyone was talking and laughing, even Zuo Yin had a drink with Sun Yuqing.

Only Zhou Lin lowered her head and drank one cup after another alone.

The hot pot soup was added wave after wave, until the meat and vegetables on the plate had bottomed out, and this small studio gathering from years ago gradually came to an end.

Wu Yuan leaned on the chair, touched his chubby belly and said, "No, I can't eat anymore. Ah, today is so cool!"

Sun Yuqing looked at Wu Yuan's stomach, and complained, "People gain three catties every Chinese New Year, but I think you gain nine catties."

"More than that, I think it weighs twelve catties." Li Ming said.

"Let's make a bet?" Sun Yuqing pulled Zuo Yin over with some alcohol, "You give us a witness, we bet...a box of XX paint, 36 colors!"

"Okay." Zuo Yin nodded, and accepted Sun Yuqing's witness request.

Wu Yuan: "Hey, you guys are serious, I'm only three catties fatter, each of you will give me a box of 42 colors!"

"Just give it." "Then you have to give us too!"

.........

The room, which had been a bit of an afterthought, was filled with lively voices again.

Shen Qingzi sat in her seat, sipping her wine and watching Zuo Yin being caught in the middle, with a doting smile in her eyes.

"Dangdang."

Suddenly, two crisp sounds of knocking wine glasses came to mind in the room, and the few people who were still noisy the last second became quiet in an instant.

Zhou Lin, who made this sound, stood up from her seat, raised her glass and said, "You won't see each other after this year, so I'm here to offer you a toast."

Sun Yuqing was taken aback for a moment, and asked back, "A Lin, are you going on a business trip or collecting folk songs?"

Zhou Lin shook her head lightly, "None."

"I'm resigned."

These words are like suddenly dropping a bomb|bomb into the deep sea.

After a second of silence, it exploded suddenly, and countless white foams rolled in the water as if boiling the entire ocean.

Zuo Yin looked at Shen Qingzi, her normally calm pupils trembled slightly, her face was full of disbelief.

Sun Yuqing couldn't believe her ears, she stood up directly, "You are joking!"

"Of course not. I have already completed the resignation procedures in the personnel department this morning." Zhou Lin smiled, but it made everyone feel extremely uncomfortable.

She raised her head and drank the wine in the glass, and said to Shen Qingzi who was sitting not far away: "Come out? I have a lot to say to you."
