Unfortunately, my hands, worn down by time, can no longer hold such an expensive carving knife!
...
For the past three evenings, I've sat by Erhai Lake, not for any particular reason, but simply to immerse myself in solitude, to "rub" and "knead" myself...
I feel really lonely, especially after Coach Ma and Bai Lu left.
Over these three days, I kept thinking back to the days when the guesthouse first opened: back then, I was so grateful to have such a team around me… In this team, Tie Nan was good at socializing, Tao Zi had an amazing bartending skill, Coach Ma could sing and was good at renovations, Bai Lu had a lot of social resources, and I had work experience; no matter how you looked at it, this was a team that could shine…
But for some reason, it seems like it only took a nap, and now it has turned into this desolate state.
I'm reflecting, and I'm even more disheartened...
Facing the wind blowing from the other side, I finally lit a cigarette for myself...
I took a deep drag, and the air around me began to fill with smoke. I couldn't help but think of the guy I had advised against... I wonder if he's back in his city and is working hard as he said he would.
I suddenly feel a bit annoyed with myself again... because compared to that guy, I should be working harder, but lately I've been thinking too much about my personal relationships.
I came to Dali with a mission, but I took the loneliness and solitude in my heart even more seriously. That's just awful!
I closed my eyes, exhaled heavily, and then placed my hand in Erhai Lake...
In the cold feeling, I seemed to see Wang Lei's worldly yet kind smile again... Her smile seemed to be mending my broken self, making me gradually whole again, and then a surge of passionate fighting spirit burst forth from my heart.
Not for anything else, but for a promise I made... I hate waiting, but I still want to stay at the foot of Cangshan Mountain, by Erhai Lake... waiting for those who have left but are destined to return to this land.
I hope that when they return, there will be no more broken souls, only beautiful romance and beauty.
...
I was immersed in this desire to strive for a long time. When I came to my senses, Ye Zhi and Yang Sisi had each sent me a message on WeChat.
Ye Zhi wants me to take her to the bar in Bailu that she's transferring ownership of. If there are no problems, she can sign the contract with us tonight and give us the transfer fee along with the money.
Yang Sisi is very practical; she asked me to go to the market to buy some vegetables and then come to her place to cook for me.
Neither of these two things can stump me...
I plan to first invite Ye Zhi to Yang Sisi's place for dinner, and then take Yang Sisi to see the bar that will soon belong to Ye Zhi.
I swear, this decision was not intended to upset Yang Sisi and Ye Zhi at all... I've always felt that the three of us came to Dali together from Shanghai and became friends, which is already a very special kind of fate. Now that they have a conflict, I must do my best to mediate.
Besides, Yang Sisi really misunderstood Ye Zhi. If Ye Zhi were truly cold-hearted, she wouldn't have taken over Bai Lu's bar and given us a chance to start over.
