Chapter 2

That night, I cried until I could no longer squeeze out a tear. My hurt heart was the same as my eyes after crying, red, swollen, astringent, dull, and I couldn’t see anything clearly. Only when you close it can you find a trace of peace.

There was no class in the afternoon of the second day, and I went to the Miss.U cafe near the school with my computer as usual. The cafe is small and exquisite, the environment is quiet and warm, the decoration is warm and artistic, and soft light music is played in the shop in a loop.In fact, this cafe attracts many student couples, because Miss.U is named after the boyfriend of the owner, and the owner is a beautiful girl surnamed You.The name of this store has a double meaning, revealing an unstoppable affection. To be honest, I was also attracted by the name.

As usual, I picked a seat in the northwest corner and sat down, ordered a cup of Blue Mountain coffee, and began to watch an old black and white movie that I had long wanted to see.In the sunny afternoon, watching the mottled light and shadow tell the ancient love story in front of your eyes.The hero is a manor owner, romantic and passionate, and the heroine is the maid of a rich woman.Like all Cinderella meets Prince Charming stories, they fell in love.It was only after they got married that they discovered that there was a bottomless secret hidden behind the hero, while she was like a phoenix flying up a branch, beautiful, but stuck in beauty.In the end, she finally saw the truth that came to light, and his manor was also swallowed by a fire.

Later, when I saw "Jane Eyre", I had a feeling of deja vu. It turns out that love in the world is as bitter as it is.Many times, many things, when we were doing it with enthusiasm, we didn't realize that our mistakes were outrageous until later, and we didn't know who gave us the courage to do so without hesitation at that time.

Watching the movie, my heart slowly calmed down, I picked up the coffee and took a sip, the faint sour taste slipped down my throat.The coffee obviously went into the stomach, but the bitterness slipped into the heart.In fact, the most difficult thing about falling out of love should be the follow-up treatment.

Suddenly, the smell of the cake brought my thoughts back, and Mu Xi's sweet smile appeared in front of my eyes, "Are you in a daze again, Xiaoxue? Seeing that your coffee is cold, what are you thinking? Let's eat the cake."

Mu Xi is a beauty-loving little girl who likes all kinds of tossings. Her beautiful hair has been straightened by her. After straightening and perming, the ends of her hair have turned yellow.She was wearing a pink sweater, light blue pencil pants, and small beige boots. The pompoms on both sides of the boots slowly stopped swinging.

"Looking at you smiling so happily, what did your family Lu Ming do to make you happy?" I was infected by her good mood.

"No, it's not him. It was the professor of our business school who informed me today that I won the first prize in the career planning competition of the third-year group of our college." She said while holding her card Chino covered his hands.

Mu Xi prefers cappuccino. Her reason is that "cappuccino tastes sweet and bitter, but it has a consistent taste. It indicates that waiting is sweet and bitter. With a faithful heart, you will not change your heart." Waiting." At that time, I joked that she didn't know where I heard it, but she just gave me a mischievous expression of "I won't tell you", and didn't reveal anything.

"It's not bad. By the way, why didn't Zhiyan come with you?"

"She, she was watching cartoons in the dormitory after no class in the morning. She just sent a text message to tell me that she just left the dormitory."

"She, a child who can't grow up."

We chatted while eating cake, and the air slowly became warmer.Mu Xi's small hands protruded from the cuffs of her pink sweater, holding a cup of coffee, sticking out her little head, leaning close to me, and we looked for a new movie to watch together.

"What are you two doing, you are so close, take me too." Ji Zhiyan's voice suddenly came out, startling us.

Mu Xi patted her angrily: "Have you finished watching the cartoon? You are in good spirits, and you are full of anger when you speak."

"Hey, it's okay. It's freezing outside. What a broken city, it's almost spring and it's still so cold." While speaking, he turned to the waiter and ordered a double mocha.Her newly cropped hair fell neatly to her ears, making her head look rounder.

"Xiao Xi, don't you think that Zhiyan looks like Cai Cai?" The more I looked at her, the more ridiculous her new hairstyle was.

"Cai Cai? What Cai Cai?" Mu Xi was puzzled.

"It's the one you can find in QQ emoticons, the cartoon image of Cai Cai, wearing glasses..."

"Oh, I remembered. When you put it that way..." Mu Xi looked at Ji Zhiyan carefully, "It's really similar, haha!"

Ji Zhiyan suddenly became interested, took out his phone and started to take pictures, the more he watched, the happier he said: "Haha, it really looks like it!"

While talking, Mu Xi's cell phone rang, and she connected while laughing: "Aha, master, where are you? ... Oh, okay, I'll go right away. Xiaoxue and Zhiyan are with me now .You wait for us over there. Well, okay, then I'll hang up."

As soon as he put down the phone, he heard Ji Zhiyan learning his tongue from the side: "Aha, master... why don't you just call your husband and return the master."

"Lu Ming is here? He doesn't have class today?" Lu Ming, Mu Xi, Ji Zhiyan, Gu Yun, and I, the five of us have been best friends since childhood.I, Mu Xi, Ji Zhiyan, and Gu Yun were destined to be admitted to the same university, and Lu Ming, like Shen Ruiqian, is studying at Rock University, and his brother Zhang Yang is also at Rock University, but he is graduating soon.

"Well, we haven't seen each other for a month. He came to see me and said please have dinner. He has arrived at the hot pot restaurant now, let's go there."

"Ah, please tell me before eating, my stomach is already full of the snacks I ate in the morning and the big cup of coffee just now!" Ji Zhiyan yelled.The couple at the next table gave us a disgusted look, and she hurriedly dragged me and Mu Xishan away.

The hotpot restaurant is only a ten-minute walk from the cafe, and we saw Lu Ming wearing sportswear not far away while talking and laughing.Mu Xi ran over like a bird and threw herself into Lu Ming's arms.

"It's freezing outside, let's go in and eat." Zhi Yan said loudly to Lu Ming while teasing Mu Xi secretly.

"No hurry, I have to wait for someone."

"Who? Do we know each other?"

"Gu Yun."

"Hey, here we come." While speaking, Lu Ming waved his hand behind me, "Gu Yun! Here!"

The hot pot restaurant was full of warm food aromas. Zhang Nuanxue just concentrated on looking at the crab sticks in her pot, listening to the bubbling sound of the base material "gurgling".Wrapped in a red coat, Ji Zhiyan happily enjoyed her various fish balls, peeing beef balls and other balls. This girl who only loves watching cartoons prefers all kinds of balls.Just now I said that my stomach was full, but now I ate again.Mu Xi and Lu Ming added each other's favorite food to each other's pot, with deep love in the corners of their eyes and brows.

Gu Yun looked at Zhang Nuanxue who was concentrating on the crab sticks, and silently took another stack of crab sticks from the turntable and placed it next to Zhang Nuanxue.Zhang Nuanxue raised her head and gave him a big smile, Gu Yun felt sore, "There are puffs and small cakes over there, I'll go get some." He got up and walked to the self-service area.

"By the way, master, you said on the phone that you have something to say, what is it?"

"Well, I succeeded in running for the chairman of the student union. Hehe." Lu Ming said while helping Mu Xi turn down the heat of the induction cooker.

"Talent, talent!" Ji Zhiyan swallowed another small ball while speaking.

"What are you talking about, so happy?" Gu Yun took the puff, said while sitting down, and put the puff by Zhang Nuanxue's hand.Without looking up, she looked at the puffs, poked them with her fingers, and squeezed one into her mouth.

"Lu Ming just said..." Ji Zhiyan was too busy to eat and talk.

"You two are really good, come on, I will rely on you to dawdle in the future. Look at you one by one, the student union of the student union, the Chuanglian of Chuanglian, all the good jobs will be taken by you in the future, will you let us The little people are alive." Zhang Nuanxue put the crab sticks into the seafood sauce and said to Lu Ming and Xiao Xi with a smile.

"You don't come here. There are two kinds of college students: one kind is like us, who struggles in various organizations. There is also a kind of talented woman like you, who floats there all day like a fairy. We If you're not on the same path, you won't be able to grab your job. Haha!" Lu Ming teased her with a hearty smile.

"Xiaoxue, why don't you join the club?" Ji Zhiyan asked inarticulately with a ball stuffed in his mouth.

Hearing this, Mu Xi slowed down, touched Ji Zhiyan's arm, and gave her a sneaky look.Ji Zhiyan froze there with an expression of "It's broken, it's caused trouble!"Lu Ming also suppressed his smile and looked at Gu Yun.Gu Yun was calm, and added some crab sticks to her pot, and said, "You like this very much. This store has unlimited supply. You should eat more Nuanxue."

"Well, why don't you eat it. Cai Cai, don't cry when I finish eating the meatballs." Zhang Nuanxue teased Ji Zhiyan with a smile, without showing any displeasure.After finishing speaking, he poured himself a glass of beer, raised his glass, looked around at the people on the table, and said seriously: "Thank you, really. In the past, I was sorry to you, I..."

"What kind of respect? If you dare to ignore us in the future, you will never talk to you again." Lu Ming raised his glass, touched her glass, and drank it down.The other three drank too.

"Actually, Xiaoxue, the past is the past, and time will take away everything. To be honest, when you broke up with us because of that person, do you think you were naive? We were indeed angry with you at the time, but who told you She is my good sister. As long as you come back, we will be here." Mu Xi put down her glass and said these words to Zhang Nuanxue seriously.

She looked at everyone and finally smiled, dear, it's great to have you here.

After the meal, the group dispersed, and Zhang Nuanxue and Gu Yun walked together.The trees on the side of the road have not yet fully emerged from the winter, standing neatly on both sides of the road.Thin and elegant.The footsteps of the two overlapped one after another, stepping on time to move forward.Zhang Nuanxue kept exhaling, and clouds bloomed around her mouth.She held them and watched them dissipate quickly.

Why is spring so late... But, it will come.When love fades, we often find that the warmth brought by friendship is so dazzling and warm, which can soothe the pain and give birth to new life.

Come spring.
