Chương 42: Chapter 42: Autumn Night Thoughts and a Date with Friends
As the night deepened, the autumn wind outside the house became more violent. The hotel room temporarily became a quiet harbor, away from the hustle and bustle and danger of the outside world. Le Yao still snuggled beside Su Ran, looking at the air-conditioning outlet with a somewhat empty look in her eyes, and Su Ran was the same. Both of them had no appetite.
After a long time, Su Ran looked at Le Yao's face, and saw that the fingerprints had faded slightly, so he whispered: "Let's go out for something to eat, or if you don't want to go out, I can call to order food."
Le Yao shook her head and replied: "Let's go out for food."
"Well, when I came, the leader gave me 2,000 yuan and asked me to treat you to a meal." Su Ran said.
Le Yao finally smiled: "I'm tired of the boxed lunches of the crew. Today, let's be extravagant and eat the best."
Su Ran nodded heavily: "Yes, eat the best, and if it's not enough, ask the leader for more, and scare him."
"You are so bad." Le Yao scolded, and the two of them smiled at each other in misery.
The night wind howled, and there were few pedestrians on the street. Le Yao, wearing a thick pink down jacket, walked side by side with Su Ran. Although they planned to indulge themselves, they finally decided to just have a bowl of noodles. Perhaps at this moment, they were not greedy for the luxury of delicacies from the mountains and the sea. The simplicity of a bowl of noodles was enough to make them forget the pain of reality at this moment.
In the noodle shop, Le Yao took off her mask, took out a small makeup mirror to check her face, and said to Su Ran with a little worry: "I will shoot the poster the day after tomorrow, and I don't know if these fingerprints can be removed."
"There is still a whole day tomorrow, it should fade away." Su Ran comforted.
Le Yao nodded: "Go back and apply an ice pack."
Su Ran looked at Le Yao distressedly, full of regret, regretting that he had been so impatient with her and hated the many troubles she brought. Until this moment, he really felt Le Yao's kindness to him, but this kindness was only discovered when he needed her, which made him blame himself.
Sometimes people really shouldn't judge others one-sidedly. Although Le Yao is a troublemaker, she also has her own shining points. At least she is very loyal to her friends. In order to help Su Ran, she would rather suffer injustice and stand up without hesitation.
During the meal, Le Yao and Su Ran talked about their friends: "Su Ran, how is Robben recently? Is he with CC?"
"No." Su Ran replied.
"That's a pity. CC is a good girl. Although she is a little idealistic, Robben is the same. I think they are a good match." Le Yao said.
Su Ran nodded in agreement, but sighed helplessly: "You also know that Robben has a hurdle in his heart. He doesn't want to start a relationship with this burden. I can understand his idea."
"What about you? Have you gotten over the hurdle in your heart?" Le Yao suddenly turned the topic to Su Ran.
Su Ran had the answer in his heart, but fell silent. At this moment, he hoped that someone could set foot in the "Sky City" and tell him how long it would take to overcome the many obstacles, climb the city again, and reunite with the woman in his heart. But he also knew that the woman waiting in the "Sky City" was no longer Lin Yue.
Seeing that Su Ran was silent for a long time, Le Yao smiled and said, "Your silence is an answer."
Su Ran did not deny it, but said with a little disappointment, "Eat quickly, the noodles are almost clumping."
Le Yao lowered his head and took a bite of noodles. As if remembering something, he said to Su Ran, "Let's go to our restaurant to get together when we return to Suzhou this time. I haven't been there for a long time and I miss it."
"Well, let's go tomorrow night, and call Robben too." Su Ran said.
Because of the agreement with Le Yao's friends last time, they did not live together this night. In the hotel room, Su Ran lit a cigarette, immersed in loneliness, and his thoughts drifted to Lin Yue involuntarily. This kind of longing made him panic, but it was difficult to suppress.
Su Ran took a deep puff of cigarette and smiled bitterly. He and Lin Yue had experienced countless bits and pieces, but what they finally pieced together was an incomplete love. Past memories were like a force attacking from all sides, tearing his heart into pieces.
In this broken thought, Su Ran seemed to see Lin Yue lying on the same bed with Lu Chen at this moment, whispering to each other, how could he remember the time they had spent together. So, those memories gradually dissipated in pain and turned into dust. The pain was so extreme that he couldn't feel the pain.
A text message alert sounded, pulling Su Ran back from the abyss of pain. He put out the cigarette butt and picked up the phone, but was surprised to find that the message was sent by Xu Tianna.
"After you apply insecticide, there should be a lot of cockroach corpses in the bathroom, right?"
Su Ran couldn't help but smile. This Xu Tianna was even afraid of dead cockroaches. He replied: "There should be some."
"Are you free to help me clean up these dead cockroaches?"
"I'm on a business trip in Hengdian. Wait until I get back, or you can ask someone else for help first."
"Wait for you. I don't want to trouble others with such a disgusting thing."
Su Ran looked at this reply and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She thought, she just owed her some money, but she asked herself to do such a disgusting thing, so she replied: "The poor have a hard life. They live without dignity and happiness."
"Stop complaining, be a good person, and work hard." Xu Tianna replied.
Looking at this message, Su Ran felt funny for some reason. The feeling was indescribable, subtle and strange.
Gradually, her mood was no longer heavy. Su Ran quickly replied to Xu Tianna with "good night", then closed the curtains, turned off all the lights in the room, and fell asleep soon.
The next day, Su Ran took Le Yao back to Suzhou. Le Yao had already returned the house she rented in Suzhou. Su Ran arranged a hotel for her and arranged to meet at a restaurant in the evening. Naturally, Robben was indispensable. After all, this was what he promised. Su Ran always considered himself a principled person who would keep his word.
After returning to the company and reporting the situation to Chen Jingming, Su Ran was busy all afternoon. It was not until the evening that he was freed from work, lay down on a chair to rest for a while, and then took out his mobile phone to call Robben.
Robben answered quickly, and Su Ran went straight to the point: "Where is it?"
There was the sound of a razor turning on the other end of the phone, and Robben took the time to say: "I'm about to go to work at the bar."
"Don't go, let's get together at the restaurant tonight, I'll treat you." Su Ran said.
Robben's tone was a little impatient: "I said I wouldn't go, don't make trouble for me, okay?"
"Didn't you say last time that if I took Le Yao with me, you would go with me?" Su Ran said.
"Yes," Robben replied.
"Does it count?" Su Ran asked.
"Forget it, isn't Le Yao filming in Hengdian?" Robben asked in confusion.
Su Ran smiled and said, "If I don't bring her back, how can I invite you, Mr. Luo? Don't waste time, come quickly. By the way, bring my guitar too, let's entertain everyone tonight."
Although Robben was a little reluctant, he still agreed. Su Ran hung up the phone, and he had some expectations for the party in the evening. He hoped that in this rare gathering, he could temporarily forget the troubles of work and emotional entanglements, and spend a relaxing and happy time with friends. He also hoped that through this party, Le Yao could get out of the shadow of being beaten and make everyone closer. But he didn't know whether this seemingly ordinary party would trigger some unexpected things and weave more complicated patterns in the emotional bond between them.
