Louis came to Wen Xiaolu and sat down a little awkwardly under the gaze of a group of girls.
Looking around, he found that there was no extra space, so he had to settle down here. When the surroundings were quiet, Louis picked up the chopsticks, but found that no one cared about his presence.
So he just started eating by himself.
Although the hotel's food was delicious, everyone's attention was focused on drinking and chatting, discussing who drove a $500,000 Ford, who had several girlfriends in college, and who earned $40,000 or $50,000 a month while still in school.
These topics became increasingly distant from Louis' life.
Louis sat down next to Wen Xiaolu, and the laughter of girls around him could be heard one after another.
Wen Xiaolu, who was so enthusiastic just now, now lowered her head with a smile on her face, and typed quickly on her mobile phone with both hands.
Louis looked at it and couldn't help feeling a little dazed.
He realized that Wen Xiaolu had never really paid attention to him and everything was just wishful thinking.
Although it was bustling around, everyone deliberately avoided Louis and no one talked to him.
In fact, Louis himself doesn’t have many friends.
He was the only one eating alone, as if his purpose of coming here was not to attend a class reunion but just to have a meal.
On the side, Wen Xiaolu's sisters looked at her phone and laughed in an ambiguous way: "Hey, who are you texting on WeChat? Isn't Wang Fulai right in front? If you have something to say, just go and say it. You are boyfriend and girlfriend now."
"Oh, there are so many people here. I would feel embarrassed to go up and look at him. Also, don't look at my phone!" Wen Xiaolu shyly hid her phone behind her and shouted to the girls around her.
After Louis witnessed this scene, his eyes dimmed instantly.
It turned out that Wen Xiaolu was sending a message to Wang Fulai. It was really bloody, and he agreed with it.
In approval, Louis quickly took two bites of the fried meat and put them in his mouth.
I want to buy some osmanthus flowers and put them in the wine, but after all it is not as good as traveling as a young man.
The bread crumbs remaining on the tip of the chopsticks fell down, just like the unspoken confession in the cinema that day.
But also.
It doesn't matter...
Growing up is always accompanied by all kinds of sadness and hardship.
Of course, I said it didn't matter, but my body was honest and it hurt.
A sour feeling appeared at the tip of my nose.
How can three years of obsession be dispelled by a few words of "let it go"? The louder you speak, the more obvious it becomes.
Louis knew this.
He is still a young man, but he has experienced some wind and rain. Even if he is covered with some dust, it cannot completely change the boy's character.
But he is no longer that innocent boy.
He is carrying too much now, and as he moves forward with this heavy burden, people always change.
Louis ate unconsciously faster. He decided to finish eating as quickly as possible and then quickly leave this depressing place.
Looking at this group of old acquaintances who were still indulging in material competition, Louis suddenly felt that the fried meat in his hand was tasteless.
He came here just to feel the good memories of the campus for the last time.
Now, the wish has come true.
It's time to leave.
While Louis was eating quietly, Wang Fulai's harsh voice suddenly rang out.
With a proud attitude, he sneered jokingly: "Hey, Louis, long time no see. The last time you left, I thought you really went to save the world, hahahaha."
These words were different from the teasing of friends. They were hostile and pure sarcasm, like a sharp steel knife.
"Save the world? Haha, Brother Wang, are you kidding? Just him?"
"It really makes me laugh to death. You acted so arrogantly that you almost fooled us all. I really thought you had some relationship with the Ye family!"
"Haha, Louis, I heard that you joined the army, why did you come back? Are you a deserter?"
The people around seemed to have found an outlet to vent their emotions, and couldn't wait to join in the sarcasm and ridicule, full of malice and without a trace of friendliness.
Louis watched coldly. He might have been moved before, but now he was just calm.
"Don't go too far! Wang Fulai, I was the one who called Louis over. Why are you teasing him?"
Wen Xiaolu stood in front of Louis and said angrily.
Although Wen Xiaolu seemed to be helping Louis, it could be seen from her tone and expression that she did not stop Wang Fulai because she really cared about Louis, but just because she called Louis here and she didn't want the scene to be too ugly.
"Okay, okay, for my girlfriend's sake, I won't mock you. But Louis, why didn't you see Miss Ye come with you this time? Oh, by the way, she was put in solitary confinement by her father, and she has no time to save you now."
"Next year, she may get married in the island city. You must prepare a generous gift for her then."
Wang Fulai's voice was like a sharp knife, cold and biting, cutting a wound.
Louis was finally moved.
"What happened to Sister Ye?"
"Haha, you don't know? You don't even know this. I thought you were so great. You can't even use the information network."
Wang Fulai smiled and shook his head.
The people around were confused; this information was beyond their comprehension.
Wen Xiaolu heard some clues, but she didn't know the whole story.
She only knew that she had to be like an angel and stabilize the situation. After all, they were all classmates and there was no need to quarrel.
"Ye Bingtang was put in solitary confinement. Who told you? Also, what does it mean to marry into the island city? Is she going to get married? Who is the other party?"
A complex emotion surged in Louis' heart, thinking of Ye Bingtang's cold and arrogant figure when she took him out of the cinema that day. He couldn't describe his feelings for Ye Bingtang, but it was more of gratitude and complex emotions.
