Three hours later, the two drove to Dali.
The car entered Dali City from the Huimin Street slope. In the field of vision, the sky and the earth unfolded like a picture, transparent and pure. The Cangshan Mountain was green and majestic. You could see the Erhai Lake and the stacked mountains in the distance. Looking towards the sky, you could see the plateau. Unique, clear and gorgeous blue sky and white clouds.
The navigation on her mobile phone reported the direction truthfully, and Wen Liang's mood seemed to rise with the beautiful scenery that appeared in front of her. She asked Xiao Jia seemingly casually:
"What are your plans when you arrive in Dali today?"
"Me? I just booked a youth hostel in the ancient city on my mobile phone. It's quite cheap. It's only 40 yuan per bed for mixed gender. The atmosphere is the same as a university dormitory. I can also practice speaking with some silly foreigners at night. Yesterday when I was in Kunming, I had sex with a Mexican girl all night long."
Wen Liang's brows twitched.
"I think you're not falling out of love, you're looking for a romantic encounter. This doesn't really fit with your personality, little~A!"
Xiaojia smiled and said:
"Oh, how can there be so many romantic encounters? It's just a normal interaction between men and women, just like you and me. I chatted with that sister for a long time, and I didn't even figure out in the end whether her name was Monica or Mokana. Well, the main thing is that she speaks Spanish and her accent is too strong when she speaks English. Anyway, she said yes, so I’m just ok. Chatting all day long made me guess and just talk nonsense, you know.”
"Haha, who knows."
Wen Liang finished speaking word by word and said politely:
"I live in Xiaguan, it's a different road. You can get off now."
"Ah? Classmate, I can treat you to a casual meal. Since you have come to Dali anyway, you must go to visit the ancient city."
"Need not."
Wen Liang replied bluntly, and Xiao Jia stopped trying to persuade him. He unbuckled his seat belt, picked up his small sign asking for a ride, and got out as soon as the door opened.
"Old classmate, we say goodbye today. We are destined to meet again in the world!"
After Xiao Jia said this at the car door, he gently opened the car door and turned around to leave.
Do you really think of me as a driver?
Wen Liang felt angry and gritted his teeth with hatred.
She just parked the car on the spot and watched Xiao Jia leave without looking back. When he walked twenty meters ahead, he paused for a moment. The girl thought he was going to turn around to see her situation, but this happened. I just went to the roadside to buy a shared bicycle, and rode away with a swaying look on my back.
"Didi~dip!"
The SUV honked twice suddenly.
Xiao A stopped his two wheels under the seat, looked back, then turned the faucet again, rode back and knocked on the cool window.
As the car window slowly lowered, Xiao Jia asked:
"Classmate, what's wrong? I seem to have lost something this time."
Wen Liang didn't bother to look at him this time and just uttered two words.
"boarding."
"No, hahaha. It's not far from the ancient city. I should be there in about ten minutes by bike. It won't be a bother."
Wen Liang's neck twisted little by little, murderous intent evident in his eyes.
"boarding!"
"Okay, okay..."
Okay, we say goodbye in the rivers and lakes, but this rivers and lakes is only twenty meters long...
The car started off again, and the little episode and emotion between the two of them was quickly blown away by the gentle wind of Caiyunzhinan.
In places like Dali and Lijiang, although there are endless rumors of shopping groups and tour guides ripping off customers, if these worldly troubles are put aside and only the "beautiful" side is left, then for literary and artistic men and women who only want to be pure. Said, this is still a paradise.
Wen Liang drove the car to the west of the ancient city. Tonight, the INTERESTING band will perform at a live house called Dali Lege in the ancient city. They will only sing two songs. As for the performance fee, this kind of fun performance does not require the company to come forward. , Alan Lu could make the announcement himself. He said that this time he received a "friendly price" of 80,000 yuan.
Alan Lu also lamented this, saying that it is different when the work becomes popular. Some old bands in Hong Kong can register for 50,000 for a performance, which makes them laugh out of their dreams. This still costs the cost of a concert, but now INTERESTING can easily Song sang two songs and within ten minutes, 80,000 yuan was received.
Speaking of which, INTERESTING has been dormant recently and does not have a detailed quotation or schedule to the outside world.
Nowadays, there is a problem in the band that cannot be avoided. Two of INTERESTING's songs went viral, which has caused Wen Liang to be in a bit of an awkward situation now, because he is beautiful, has sweet songs, has outstanding looks, and is He Tianran, a rich second generation son. My girlfriend, her popularity has long been out of the industry, so now even if she doesn't sing or act, she can still make a lot of money by being an Internet celebrity and selling goods.
The music company has wanted her to open a personal account on social media such as Douyin or Xiaohongshu several times. She doesn’t have to do anything at ordinary times, just post her beautiful daily photos and show off her figure. They advertise In charge of docking, I heard that some beauty businesses have quoted an astonishing price of 700,000 yuan for a short video soft advertisement.
But there is no way, He Tianran has been suppressing him. With his family background, outsiders have nothing to say about the fact that he is not short of money.
But having said that, the current structure of the band has obviously restricted Wenliang's personal development. This must be one of the reasons why the girl has always wanted to take on roles and try to prove herself in front of her boyfriend.
The two got out of the car and decided to find a place to eat first. There were more snacks in the ancient city, but there were also a lot of people. The two casually entered a shop and ordered two bowls of cross-bridge rice noodles as soon as they sat down. The food was warm and cool very quickly. Was recognized by some fans.
"Are you... Wen Liang from the band INTERESTING?"
Several little girls who were eating in the store had been staring at her since she entered the store. After waiting for a while, one of the girls finally came over timidly and asked.
Judging from the fact that they all look like high school students, they must have come to Dali during the National Day holiday.
"Hello, it's me."
Wen Liang replied with a smile.
Several little girls said "Ah~" in unison. They controlled their emotions, took out their mobile phones, and said hurriedly:
"Sister Wen, we are all your fans. We heard on the Internet that INTERESTING will have a performance in Dali today, so we came over. I...can we take a photo with you? We especially like your songs..."
"Okay, come on!"
Wen Liang stood up generously, and several girls cheered, surrounded the idol, and took photos excitedly.
The cross-bridge rice noodles were now on the table. Xiao Jia, who was sitting aside, watched a few girls chirping and posing while eating the spicy and refreshing rice noodles with relish.
At this moment he seemed to be an outsider...
No one noticed his presence until Wen Liang came back and sat down. Then several little girls looked at his position, with a hint of gossipy enthusiasm in their eyes, but they respected the idol and did not come forward to bother him.
As Wen Liang stirred her rice noodles, she heard Xiao Jia sigh:
"It seems that you, classmate, are really a celebrity."
"They're all fans of my band."
The chopsticks in the girl's hand suddenly stopped, and she looked up at Xiao Jia.
"No, you..."
"Me what?"
Wen Liang was suddenly in a trance. There seemed to be several blurry double images of Xiao Jia in front of her. She shook her head and looked at him again. Xiao A was looking confused, waiting for her next words.
The double image disappeared, but Wen Liang had just finished speaking, but suddenly forgot what he wanted to ask...
Seeing that the girl was silent, Xiao Jia took a few mouthfuls of powder and said vaguely:
"So classmate, don't worry, I won't have any scandals with you."
Wen Liang's somewhat confused thoughts were attracted by these words. She came back to her senses and asked curiously:
"Although I'm not worried about this, I still want to ask, why are you so sure?"
"Because I told you, I have special powers. Those girls are all black and white in my eyes. They will probably forget about me when they leave the house."
Wen Liang shook his head and rolled his eyes at him: "You, if you fall out of love, you will fall out of love. I would rather hear you talk nonsense about not believing in love anymore than listen to you babbling like this. Others just don't want to come. You're just interrupting our meal, there's no point in forgetting, they don't know you at all, okay."
Xiao Jia smiled and nodded in agreement, but even so, Wen Liang couldn't help but ask again:
"Then tell me, when did your superpower begin?"
"..."
The man opposite's eyes suddenly started to flicker. He seemed to be embarrassed by this question. He scratched his hair, sniffed again, lowered his head and ate his powder.
At this moment, he seemed to be very hungry, and he was eating the noodles loudly. The freshly cooked vermicelli was very hot, but he put it into his mouth without blowing.
"Are you hungry?"
"Um."
When he raised his head again, his cheeks bulged while chewing the vermicelli in his mouth, and he swallowed it in a few hurried bites. After returning to normal, his eyes were a little clearer than before, and there were even some tears in the corners of his eyes. He stuck out his tongue, used his hands as a fan, put down his chopsticks, picked up the teapot on the table, poured himself a glass of water, and shouted comically:
"It's so hot..."
"You don't even have to blow it, that's for sure!"
Wen Liang saw how experienced he was in this rough way of eating, so he took out a few tissues and handed them over.
Xiao Jia drank water, wiped the oil from his mouth, and answered the question the girl asked before:
"This ability appeared when my girlfriend forgot about me."
Wen Liang teased: "You really know how to choose the time to awaken your super power. If you continue like this, will you be forgotten by the whole world?"
Xiaojia smiled bitterly, "Who knows..."
Wen Liang tried to use the other person's thinking to persuade him: "I think after you finish this trip, you should try to start a new relationship. Maybe by then, the superpower that bothers you will disappear?"
"Probably...no."
"Why?"
"What if she remembers it one day?"
Wen Liang really didn't expect that Xiao Jia, who looked like a scumbag, could say such a thing.
"I can't tell that you are quite infatuated, but when you say this, it makes me feel like you are living in memories. Do you still want to get back together with your girlfriend?"
Xiao Jia shook his head: "I don't want to, how should I put it... just like me and you, for a certain period of time, we walked together for a while, and even met after we separated, but it was like the first time we chatted on the train Live like that, and when you reach the end, you will continue your journey in another way, and I have to go back the same way.”
Wen Liang cleared his mind: "In short, you are saying that you and your girlfriend are not the same person?"
"If I chase you, will you agree?" Xiao Jia asked abruptly.
"No!" Wen Liang refused immediately and mercilessly dispelled the other party's assumption: "You and I... Hey, I know you want to use me as an example, Xiao Jia, so I will tell the truth. If not We happened to meet each other on this trip, just... two parallel lines will never intersect. If something unexpected didn't happen, I might not even be able to think of a reason why I would fall in love with you..."
The man opposite smiled twice and said seriously: "Haha, that's true. I think so too. What kind of person do you think you will like?"
Wen Liang subconsciously gave an affirmative answer:
"Regardless of some personality or appearance factors, first of all I will fall in love with a romantic and passionate person."
"What exactly?"
Wen Liang raised his head, thinking, and said wantonly:
"How can romance be specific? It's like I can't stand what you said before. I'm a very crazy person. I like publicity of love too much. Everyone in this world knows how to conceal, test, and... In the era of weighing the pros and cons, I prefer no. I want to be passionate and magnanimous. I want to exchange sincerity for sincerity. If I think about it a hundred times, it is better to do it once. I don’t like that kind of happiness placed in front of you, but you put those shadows People who think that mountains and waterfalls block their view and say that they cannot be happy are just like...you, Xiaojia."
Seeing the girl so full of flowers and full of fantasies about youthful love, Xiao Jia unknowingly smiled sincerely and sighed:
"Then, being able to be the person you love is really a matter of happiness and pressure at the same time."
Having said this, he couldn't help but remind:
"But as you said in the car, you will bind love and life together. Although this sounds beautiful, it is also too persistent, isn't it?
If you don't deliberately guide it, it will be difficult to meet another soul that is compatible with you in this world. In most cases, two people who love each other need to put themselves in someone else's shoes and judge others, and they have to go through some inevitable mutual accommodation and reconciliation. Self-restraint is a must. "
Wen Liang shrugged, "I know what you mean, but I actually don't agree with this 'inevitable' statement."
"How to say?"
"Because I believe there must be such a person in this world, who is here for me. He is different from everyone else. If he appears but stays where he is, then I can just run to him. That's it. It’s simple, you don’t have to think so much.”
"So... you are not a stable person?"
"Of course not, I am a person who likes challenges."
The man's eyes were soft, full of admiration for the girl in front of him.
"But have you ever thought that our inner being is constantly changing. As our life stages change, what we desire will also change. Maybe you at twenty look at problems from a different angle than you at thirty. , maybe the way you treat the world at the age of forty will undergo earth-shaking changes."
Wen Liang raised his eyebrows slightly and said loudly:
"But the human soul does not change!"
After hearing the answer, Xiao Jia opened her lips slightly, wanting to say something, but in the end it turned into a gentle smile.
He remembered that he once said that he liked the soul of a girl...
But, he was the only one who remembered it.
"I……"
Just when the man wanted to speak, Wen Liang's cell phone on the table suddenly rang.
The girl answered the phone and the man stopped speaking.
"Hey Dongdong, I'm here, right on the edge of the ancient city... Yes, your luggage is in my car... Well, I'll send it to you... What? Can the room see Erhai Lake? Wow, Alan I'm pretty good at finding a place... Well, I'm coming... Okay, I'll see you later."
Wen Liang hung up the phone and said apologetically:
"Sorry, Xiao A, I have to meet up with my friends, so I won't go shopping with you."
"It's okay, classmate, you have helped me a lot today, go ahead."
Wen Liang stood up and was about to leave, but she seemed to think of something and invited:
"By the way, Xiao A, our band will perform today at a livehouse in the ancient city. If you are free, you can come and have a look."
"OK!"
"Well, I'm leaving then, bye."
"……Bye-Bye."
Wen Liang turned around and took a few steps.
"Click..."
At this time, she heard a deep voice coming from behind her. She turned her head in confusion and looked at the "passerby" who was sitting there and smiling at her.
"You...just called me?"
Xiaojia shook his head:
"No."
Wen Liang pursed her lips and smiled:
"Weirdo... see you soon!"
"Well, see you later."
The girl faced the sunshine outside the door and walked away.
