Chapter 66
Having made up his mind, Bai Jiu will pay more attention in his later life. He always reminds himself not to be confused by this comfortable status quo.
Perhaps because she sensed his thoughts, it didn't take long for Bai Jiu's life to experience turmoil.
It's not a big deal, but -- Tang Jun came to him.
Tang Jun made this decision with great determination.
The current Bai Jiu is no longer at the same level as him. He knows that he shouldn't bother him anymore, but he always holds a trace of luck in his heart, hoping that Bai Jiu will remember him and is willing to come out to see him.
Ordinarily, after such a long time, the relationship should fade away. Tang Jun originally thought so, but the reality hit him hard in the face.
How can people's emotions be so easy to control.
He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, with mixed feelings in his heart. He hated his humbleness and his cowardice.
If he had had the courage to speak out his thoughts before, would the situation be different now?
He didn't know, so he was not reconciled.
Tang Jun took out his phone and opened WeChat.Bai Jiu's news was put on top by him, so he could easily find him.
His fingers lingered on the rabbit head for a long time, and finally clicked on the dialog box.It showed that the last message was a few months ago, and he wished Bai Jiu a smooth journey.
He flipped through the records again. There was not much news, but he read it for a long time.Finally, he gritted his teeth, entered a few words in the chat box, and clicked send.
In fact, he was already prepared to be rejected. The purpose of sending this message was not so much to get a response, but to give himself an explanation.The phone vibrated slightly, showing that he had received a reply. Tang Jun raised his breath and narrowed his eyes. After seeing the content of Bai Jiu's reply, he opened them wider and wider involuntarily.
Bai Jiu... agreed.
He agreed to his request to ask him out to meet.
Does this mean that Bai Jiu still remembers him, and he has not been completely forgotten?
Tang Jun didn't want to be sentimental, but his excited heart couldn't keep calm.
He never thought before that just a piece of news could affect his emotions like this.
Bai Jiu was quite surprised when he received the news. Tang Jun hadn't contacted him for a long time, and when he received such a message suddenly, Bai Jiu thought something had happened.
But after careful questioning, I found out that the other party had nothing serious, and just wanted to ask him out to meet.
After all, they were the ones who helped him when he was down and down, and they got along pretty well at that time, Bai Jiu didn't think much about it, since the other party mentioned it, it's not a big deal for him to go on a date.
Coincidentally, he also wanted to go back to the bar to have a look.
The appointed day was a sunny day, the sun was hot and warm, and the breeze was soft and warm.Bai Jiu arrived at the place 10 minutes earlier, looked around, Tang Jun didn't seem to come yet, so he found a bench to sit and rest.
Coincidentally, the place they made an appointment with was the same park that Bai Jiu had been to in the first place, and the bench that Bai Jiu was sitting on was also the one he had sat on before.
Bai Jiu's time is a bit tight, the company has just temporarily added a meeting, and he can only stay here for about an hour.In order to save the time of changing clothes, he directly put on the formal suit, and his hair was already done. Looking around, he looked like a successful person.
Not far away was a person approaching him, Bai Jiu looked over keenly, it was a down and out homeless man.Bai Jiu didn't have much impression of this person. He looked at him inexplicably, but he didn't hide.
The man finally approached, holding a chipped porcelain bowl in his hand, and said flatteringly to him: "Brother, please do me a favor and give me some money."
Although Bai Jiu didn't remember this person's face, Bai Jiu had a little impression of this voice.
This broken voice yelled at him a few months ago.
Now, the same place, the same people, but the situation is very different.The other party is still a tramp, but he has transformed into a rich and noble son.
The change is so great that it is embarrassing.
Looking at the man in front of him who nodded and bowed to him, Bai Jiu sighed for a moment.But even though there was a bit of grievance between them, Bai Jiu didn't make things difficult for this person. On the contrary, he even took out his wallet from his body.
There was no change in the wallet, so Bai Jiu simply took a hundred-yuan bill and put it into the porcelain bowl in the man's hand.The homeless man was overjoyed and wished he could kneel down on the spot, "Thank you, thank you! You are such a kind person! I wish you good health, and, uh... smooth work!"
It can be seen that this person's education level is not high, and those two sentences are repeated over and over again.
Once upon a time, he himself was like this.
The homeless man happily left, Bai Jiu lowered his head and put the wallet back in his pocket.But as soon as he put his things away, another shadow appeared in front of him.
He raised his head subconsciously, and saw a slender figure. Bai Jiu followed the figure and looked up, but what caught his eyes was a completely unfamiliar face.
The man looked at him with a bit of joy and nostalgia on his face.In the end, all kinds of emotions came into his eyes, and he burst into a warm smile, which fell into Bai Jiu's eyes with the sunshine.
The work during this period has greatly improved Bai Jiu's behavior. He returned a polite smile to the other party, but his tone was slightly alienated: "Hi, may I ask who you are?"
The other party pursed his lips, as if he was dissatisfied with not being recognized, but when he met Bai Jiu's gaze, he cleared his throat nervously, "Bai Jiu, long time no see."
"Tang Jun?" As soon as the voice came out, Bai Jiu recognized who the person opposite was, and he looked at him with some surprise, "I really didn't recognize you without makeup, hey, so you are also very good-looking Well."
These words are a bit polite, but Bai Jiu really thinks his face is not bad.Tang Jun had been wearing very heavy makeup before, and he thought it was because the other party was not good-looking, but now it seems that he is narrow-minded.
Being praised by Bai Jiu, Tang Jun was obviously a little happy. It was a decision he made with great determination to see Bai Jiu with his original appearance, but at present, this decision is correct.
He bent his eyes and joked, "So now, you don't think I look like a pillar, do you?"
Speaking of this, Bai Jiu was also a little embarrassed, he explained with a laugh: "I really didn't understand what you meant at the time, I'm sorry."
"It's okay." After the joke, the atmosphere between the two relaxed a little.The sky was clear and the trees were shaded. In this fine weather, Tang Jun took Bai Jiu for a stroll in the park. The two chatted all over the place, talking about recent anecdotes in the bar, and Bai Jiu's current life .
After a few words, Tang Jun found that Bai Jiu had changed a lot. He became more mature and outstanding.
But he was standing still, which made him even more uneasy about what he was going to say next.
It was the weekend, and there were a lot of children playing around in the park. Tang Jun didn't find a chance to be alone with Bai Jiu, so he couldn't speak.
He was a little anxious, but Bai Jiu proposed at this time that he wanted to go to the bar to have a look.
Tang Jun could only suppress the words in his mouth, and went back to the bar with Bai Jiu.
The bar is still in the depths of that alley. Because of the funds, the store has been renovated and the environment is better than before.The bar staff are all night owls, and they didn't wake up at the moment. The whole bar was quiet, without the hustle and bustle of the night, which added a bit of tranquility.
When Bai Jiu asked about the recent situation, Tang Jun told him that Bai Jiu was now considered as half of the investor in the bar. Without him, it's hard to say what the bar would be like now.
They sat on the sofa and chatted casually. The atmosphere was very good, and Tang Jun's mind became active.He thought it was time to tell Bai Jiu what he wanted.
But before he could open his mouth, Bai Jiu's cell phone rang suddenly. He smiled apologetically at Tang Jun, and walked aside to answer the phone.
It was his assistant calling, reminding him that the meeting time was approaching.
Looking at the time, it was indeed the case, Bai Jiu came back and wanted to say goodbye to Tang Jun.
Tang Jun also heard the conversation between Bai Jiu and his assistant, his heart tightened, and he bit his lower lip anxiously.
"Tang Jun, I'm leaving." Bai Jiu put away her phone and stood in front of Bai Jiu.
"Wait!" Tang Jun plucked up his courage and grabbed Bai Jiu's wrist.
Bai Jiu was slightly surprised, but he didn't rush to break free, but looked at the other party questioningly.Being watched like this, Tang Jun became even more nervous, and the place where his fingers touched his wrist seemed to be on fire, as if he had been scalded, his fingers snapped away.
Bai Jiu was even more puzzled.
Tang Jun's expression was a bit embarrassed, his heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his chest. "I, that, I want to say..." He stumbled, but couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
Tang Jun, why are you so useless!
He cursed himself secretly in his heart.
"What's wrong?" Bai Jiu waited patiently for his words, "Don't worry, just speak slowly."
He was so gentle, Tang Jun's tension was relieved a lot, he calmed down, took a deep breath and barely stabilized his mood.
Bai Jiu looked at the time again, it was almost too late, but he still didn't urge the other party.
In this case, urging will only make the other party more and more anxious, and finally nothing can be said.
Tang Jun saw all this in his eyes, and he suddenly had an illusion that Bai Jiu was so patient with him. Does this mean that he still has a certain status in Bai Jiu's heart?
Thinking of this, his mood suddenly calmed down a lot, his tension gradually subsided, and his eyes became more and more determined.
"Bai Jiu." Tang Jun called out the name, and just looking at this person, a trace of sweetness would surge in his heart.
"Well, I'm here." Bai Jiu nodded at him.
At this moment, Tang Jun suddenly felt that everything else was unimportant. Even if he was rejected, he had fulfilled one of his wishes.
So he smiled lightly, his voice was not stuttering, but serious.
"I like you."
