After kissing the professor

The passionate music gradually rose, and the heroine on the stage was spinning and flying, but when the music reached its peak, she fell down and died in the arms of the hero.

"God! Please save her!"

"...she's dead." ①The pale light hit the dead character, and when the curtain fell, Yan He felt his heart tense, as if he was tightly locked by a sexless shackle, unable to move.She was trembling all over, with tears in her eyes and bulging veins on the back of her hands. She didn't know where she got the courage, and she suddenly wanted to ask the woman beside her a question.

But the stolen courage can only be reckless for a moment, and she didn't dare to ask it.Her heart ached because of her cowardice.Yan He knew that he didn't have the courage to speak first.

"A great opera." When she finished leaving the stage, the woman stood up and said to Yan He with a smile.

Yan He could see the ivory-white turtleneck sweater under her gray coat, wrapping the woman's slender waist and graceful chest.This dress was tight, but it made Yan He's ears turn red.She wanted to say something to respond to a woman, just like chatting with an old friend, but she could only respond mechanically and rigidly: "Yeah, a great opera."

The woman laughed, and Yan He found that she liked to laugh. When she laughed, her eyebrows and eyes were curved, and her temperament was gentle: "Love story." She paused, as if she felt that her wording just now was too general, so she added another adjective to describe it. This love tragedy: "A poignant love story."

Yan He nodded, feeling the pain on the tip of his tongue, his brain completely lost the ability to respond to the woman's smile, so he had to respond mechanically again: "Yes."

The woman gave her a final smile and said "goodbye".When he stepped away, Yan He saw a thin wrist watch on her left wrist, and saw her hair flying up briefly, with a heart-warming arc.Immediately afterwards, the last remaining fragrance dissipated, and Yan He sat on his seat in a daze.

Among the bustling crowd, her back seemed to be shining. Yan He's eyes automatically focused on her back, trying to see more through the thin back, but she soon realized that it was futile.

"Have you talked to the beautiful sister?" Li Xiuxi's words interrupted Yan He's delusion, she also stood up, the people around her left in a hurry, and there was no one in the theater.

Yan He smiled. After she laughed, she realized that the smile she just showed was somewhat similar to that woman.looks like?But it's not like it.Smile is always the best magic weapon for human perfunctory and concealment, no matter when it is.

"Let's go." Li Xiuxi looked around and looked down at the time: "Go back and get some luggage and go, otherwise the train to the airport will be too late."

Yan He stood up, gathered the coat on her body, watched the woman's back merge into the crowd, and then disappeared, like a drop of water that did not belong to her merged into the sea. She possessed the drop for a short time, but in the end, she still took it Released into the sea.

The two are flying to Vienna tonight. The price of the red-eye flight is always so low that people ignore the discomfort.Yan He was not with her friends, she was sitting by the porthole, the night scene outside was just like what she saw when she first came to this city.The ground lights in the middle of the night seem to be the same in every city when you see them while flying.

This time should be Yan He's sleeping time, but she is not even half sleepy now.The woman she had just seen at the opera made her heart tremble.She was split into two parts by herself—emotionally, she always felt that she should have seen her somewhere before, but her rationality told her that this was just her delusion, and she and that lady would never see each other again. arrive.

Such an overly rational cognition made Yan He's heart ache. She took a deep breath, lowered her eyebrows, and wanted to suppress the emotion that should not have appeared in her heart.

Seeing her like this, the German grandmother next to her asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?" Seeing Yan He's bewildered face, she smiled gently and repeated her question in English.

Yan He smiled apologetically at her and replied in English: "Thank you! I'm fine!"

The German grandma smiled kindly at her, and then whispered to her in English the purpose of her trip to Vienna.Her children are in Vienna, Austria is also a German-speaking country...

"Are you Chinese? Child." The German grandma's eyes were cloudy, but Yan He felt kind when she asked this sentence.She thought wildly, maybe the kindness of old people to young people in this world is like this.

Yan He replied: "Yes, I'm here to study."

The German grandma smiled and finally said "all the best" in Italian.

The plane taxied, took off, and looked at the airport outside through the porthole. Yan He was surprised that whether he was in Rome or Beijing, the scenery he saw when overlooking the airport from a high altitude was similar.

She suddenly had a feeling that she had come home.

After more than an hour's flight, the plane arrived at Vienna International Airport - looking down from above, it is true that there is not much difference between Vienna and Rome.

Yan He pulled the boarding case and waited for Li Xiuxi by the elevator at the door for a while, and the people beside him passed by several times.She was a little sleepy, so she straightened her messy sleeping hair, Li Xiuxi was late.

Li Xiuxi walked over quickly, smiled and said "Thank you" to the flight attendant standing at the door of the cabin, looked up and saw Yan He.She pointed at Yan He's chicken coop and smiled for a long time, then pulled the suitcase and went out with her.

"Let's go! Go drink?"

Yan He looked at her with crazy eyes, and pointed to the LED electronic clock on the wall: "Now? 12:30 am Austrian time?"

Li Xiuxi was straightforward: "Old Zhou is waiting outside the airport! We have to drink with some of our classmates later! If we don't drink tonight, we will run out of time! We have to go to the airport tonight!"

Yan He felt that she was too energetic, and said weakly: "I have to go back to the hotel to sleep...I'm too sleepy..."

An hour later, Yan He sat expressionlessly beside the bar counter of the downstairs bar of the hotel, looking at the men and women writhing aside.

"Maybe you need a glass of wine?" the bartender asked her with a smile.

Yan He spread his hands and smiled helplessly: "Yes, I need a cup of refreshment—at least to make me not so sleepy."

In fact, what she needs most is not wine, but the courage to go back to sleep now.She looked down at the time, decided to sit down for another 10 minutes, talk to Li Xiuxi and the others, and go back to sleep.

"I see!" The little brother snapped his fingers and skillfully mixed the drink. Finally, he patted the mint leaf in his hand and put a glass of wine beside Yan He.

"Mojito," the bartender brother spoke with a little Spanish accent, and he winked at Yan He: "I put a lot of mint, maybe it will make you sober."

Yan He rubbed his hair subconsciously again, took out the wallet from his pocket, but was stopped: "This is from me." He winked at Yan He again.

Yan He was taken aback, and gratefully said "Thank you".

After the soda water and rum were mixed together, a lot of the alcohol taste was weakened. Yan He took a sip, and immediately tasted a big mouthful of strong mint flavor - straight to the top of the sky.

It's so refreshing, it's so refreshing, Yan He thinks he can be high until tomorrow morning.

Time passed unknowingly, and the wine glass in front of him was half filled.Yan He's drinking capacity is good, but she feels in a daze that she heard the Chinese dialogue except for a few friends.

——Is it because you are too sleepy?Or was it because he was drunk?Why did she feel that she saw the familiar gray coat just now?

The gray was in a corner of the bar, only a corner of the clothes was exposed, but Yan He knew that she had seen the familiar gray right - she didn't know if that person was the woman just now, but her heart was beating wildly.Yan He knew that if he didn't go and have a look, he might regret it for the rest of his life.

At this moment, she couldn't even hear the noisy voices in the bar, and her eyes were fixed on the corner of the clothes.

How can I go over there and have a look?How should I strike up a conversation?How do you speak without being rude?

She could hear her own rapid breathing, and could feel the hot blood bursting from her heart and spreading all over her body. It seemed that only she and the woman in the gray coat were left in the whole world.Under the dim light, the whole world seems to have collapsed, all the roads have collapsed, only one——only one road between her and the woman still exists.

Yan He was dizzy, thinking to himself, if he is about to take a wrong step, it will be the abyss, right?If the space between them is not an ordinary bar carpet, but a piece of magma, I am willing to step over it.

But—how strange, even if it was magma, she was willing to flow over it, but the short and ordinary distance seemed so close to the sky, her feet were like lead, and she couldn't walk it no matter what.

She hesitated—while she was hesitating, she seemed to hear a woman's laughter, and then, she saw the woman stand up and walk towards herself.
