The outdoor location for today's work was a newly constructed artificial waterfall. The setting sun, which had yet to be completely engulfed by the night sky, contributed its last ray of light to the top of the waterfall. The torrents that poured down seemed to be dyed golden. When they reached the bottom, golden beans as tall as a person splashed up. There were many black scenic stones piled up on the mountainside of the waterfall, forming a three-level drop. The scene was breathtaking.
Soon, it was completely dark. The street lamps by the river lit up the night sky. The night lights in the waterfall reflected the waterfall, forming various colors of turbulence. The water vapor was dense, adding a hint of mystery to the ordinary night. As Luoli sighed in her heart about how beautiful the scenery here was, she slowed down the shutter speed, causing the anxious flowing water to turn into a hazy mist in the photo. It was like a paradise riding on clouds.
Luo Li kept changing angles, trying to find a different way to view the scene. By the time the entire team finished work, it was already past ten o'clock.
When they passed by Blues on their way home, Luoli subconsciously glanced at them. The car turned a corner and drove into the parking lot attached to the bar.
The nightlife of Blues had just begun. Walking around the lights, Luo Li sat at the bar counter.
"Yo, I thought you weren't coming today.”Abu was wiping the half-moon-shaped bar counter as he walked over from the other end.
"Heh, I just finished work, so I came over to take a look.”Luoli lit a cigarette." Give me a glass of Blood.Marry."”
"You changed it today?" Abu laughed." Tsk tsk, how rare.”
"Can't you get tired of it?" Rolling her eyes at him, Luoli looked around and saw the time. Alright, Mo Ying should have left by now.
"Mo Ying hasn't left yet." Abu handed the blood-red cocktail to Luoli." When we finished singing today, I saw a man looking for her. He's still in the room."”
"A man?" Luoli was stunned." Who is it?”
Abu shrugged and shook his head."Anyway, it's not someone who's pursuing her."
Luoli almost spat out the wine in her mouth. She coughed twice and could not stop laughing.
Seeing her like that, Abu also laughed. He wanted to say something more, but he raised his head and pursed his lips." Hey, you're out."”
Luo Li turned around. Mo Ying and a man in a gray jacket were walking out of the corridor of the private room. They were whispering to each other from time to time. Although they were not far away, the lights in the bar were dim and Mo Ying's expression was not very clear.
Staring at the man's face, Luoli's tired mind cleared up a little. A name jumped out in her heart in panic. It was him.
"She seems to have seen you." Abu wiped his wine glass and pouted." They're coming this way.”
Luoli paused for a moment and turned her gaze back to the person who was getting closer and closer to her.
"You're so late." Mo Ying sat down next to her and snapped his fingers at Abu." Screwdriver."
"Yeah, I just got off work." Luoli gulped down her wine." You're late today too."”
"Ha, I have something to discuss with someone else." Mo Ying also raised his wine cup and took a sip.
"Do you have time? Drink more with me." Luo Li did not intend to ask that man about it. It should not be a bad thing for him to look for Mo Ying.
"Don't you have work tomorrow? You should go back and rest early."
"It's okay. It'll just be a while." Luo Li felt her heart empty and wanted to find something to fill it.
"What do you want to drink?" Mo Ying nodded. Is red wine good? It can help you sleep."
"Sure."
After changing to a quieter place, the waiter opened the bottle and left. The two of them poured half a glass each, clinked it, and drank it all.
Luoli immediately filled the other party's cup and also filled her own. She raised her goblet and gently swirled it, the wine in the cup swirling as her eyes began to look lost.
"Something on your mind?" Mo Ying regretted it as soon as he opened his mouth. He didn't sleep well last night. He tossed and turned, thinking about it. He had made up his mind to stabilize his emotions. Why did he forget about her the moment he saw her? Seeing her unhappy look, Mo Ying felt sad as well. However, on second thought, we are considered friends, so it is only right for us to show concern.
"It's nothing. I just suddenly wanted to find someone to accompany me.”After downing another glass of wine, Luoli put down the empty glass and knocked her chin on the table, her face tired.
"If you're tired, go home. You'll feel better after you sleep.”Mo Ying advised softly. He was used to seeing a lively girl. When she was tired, it made his heart ache.
"It's fine. I'm used to it. I can't sleep until it's time.”Luoli shook her head and refilled her glass of wine." Ying, have you ever been in love?”
Mo Ying was stunned. Did she see something?
Luo Li did not seem to be in a hurry for an answer and continued,"Do people have to love in their lives? Love was tiring. The person you loved might not love you, and the person who loved you might not love him. In the end, you might still live with someone who neither loves you nor you love him.”
After saying that, Luoli raised her head and gulped down the wine like it was water."I know that you must have loved someone before. A cold person must have a story. You don't really want to live with a mask. You're just afraid of getting hurt. You might as well seal yourself up first so that you're invulnerable.”
"Is that so? Maybe it was once." But now, I don't know if I can still be impenetrable. Mo Ying didn't finish his sentence and also finished the wine in his cup.
"The person you like isn't an ordinary person, right?”It was easy to get drunk from drinking alone. Luo Li felt the things in front of her start to sway. She spoke without any reservations." I could tell at a glance."”
"What else did you see?" Mo Ying probed. This girl was not confused at all.
"Me? Hur hur, let me guess." Luoli giggled and pointed at the tip of her nose." Could it be that she likes me?"”
" Hehe," Mo Ying laughed, but his heart was beating fast." You're drunk."”
"I-I'm not drunk. Let me tell you, you're actually quite good. On the surface, you look cold and indifferent, but you're actually very attentive and gentle. I really like you." Luoli was truly confused and started to giggle again.
Really? Mo Ying was a little excited, but then he calmed down. She still only treated me as an ordinary friend, right? How could ordinary people understand the feelings between the same sex? After all, we are people from two different worlds.
"Luoli, let's go home. It's very late." Mo Ying shook Luoli, whose mind was not very clear.
"Go home? I'm not going home." Luoli suddenly began to cry. Her tears flowed uncontrollably.
Mo Ying panicked and hurriedly took out a tissue, frantically wiping away the tears on Luoli's face."Why are you crying? Did I say something wrong?”
"No, I just want to cry." Luoli wanted to borrow the strength of the alcohol to cry out the bitterness hidden in her heart to her heart's content.
"Okay, okay, okay. You'll be fine after you cry.”Mo Ying reached out to hug her, allowing Luo Li's tears to drench her leather jacket.
What exactly made her so sad? Mo Ying suddenly thought that there must be a scar on Luoli's body that could not be touched. Someone must have touched that scar today, causing her to act so abnormally. What kind of past had caused her so much pain?
Mo Ying could not help but feel curious. He wanted to know more about Luoli, this kind girl who could cause others to dote on her.
Luoli cried and began to twitch. Mo Ying thought that she had cried too much and was holding her breath. He patted her back gently, wanting to help her catch her breath, but he heard a faint moan.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing Luo Li's face turn from red to pale and sweat the size of beans flowing down, Mo Ying was so anxious that his voice changed.
Luoli shook her head. She pressed her hands against her stomach and hunched over, unable to speak.
"Stomachache?" Mo Ying helped her lie down on the sofa and took off his coat to cover her." I'll send you to the hospital."”
Still shaking her head, Luoli opened her eyes and forced out a sentence,"Help me get some hot water and some food.”
"Alright, wait for me." Mo Ying ran out of the room.
Luoli placed the back of her hand on her forehead and stared at the hazy light pouring down from the ceiling. Her consciousness was a little dazed. The alcohol effect that had just risen was dispelled by the pain. The pain was very real. It was like a mouth was gnawing at her internal organs bit by bit. She was about to die.
Mo Ying returned not long after, carrying a plate of cake and a cup of hot water. He helped Luoli up and brought the cup to her lips.
Only after Luoli finished the food on the tray did the pain slowly ease. Wiping the sweat off his face, he realized that Mo Ying was also sweating profusely.
"I'm sorry for causing you trouble every time.”Luo Li's voice was very soft as she had not fully recovered her strength.
"Did you drink before eating?”Mo Ying's tone was filled with worry.
"It's been a long time since it happened. I thought it was fine.”Luoli smiled bitterly." I won't dare to do it again."”
"Your body is yours. No one can replace you.”Mo Ying pulled Luo Li's coat tighter.
"Got it." Luo Li knew that she was in the wrong and answered sincerely.
"Are you feeling better? Can you walk?"
"Yes." Luo Li nodded and slowly stood up. Mo Ying supported her and the two of them walked out of the bar.
When they reached home, the living room clock struck three times. Luoli did not even turn on the lights. She groped her way into the room and lay on the bed. She had used up all her strength from crying just now, and she only wanted to sleep. It would be best if she did not wake up.
The night was like a particularly fragile soap bubble that would burst with a slight touch. If the nightmare in his memories could be shattered so easily, then living would not be so difficult. Unfortunately, there are some sorrows that we cannot escape from.
