Chapter 276 The Flowering Period of Cherry Blossoms

After the first wave of firecrackers passed, Anting looked at Gu Xueli with confused eyes, but the latter showed an expression of relief.

It seems that he said something important.

An Ting tilted his head and said in a daze: "It was too noisy just now, I didn't hear clearly..."

Unexpectedly.

Gu Xueli, who was staring at the boy, lowered her eyes and raised an unreadable arc at the corner of her mouth, "Great, luckily you didn't hear it."

"Huh?"

Gu Xueli shook her head in relief, stood up from the chair, stretched, smiled charmingly, and said: "I'm a big star, I can only speak once, I can't hear you clearly. Forget it.”

Actually…

About the fact that I like you…

About this deformity that spans seven or eight years love.

I don’t have the courage to say it a second time.

 Immediately afterwards.

Gu Xueli walked on the smoke-filled streets with her own steps.

An Ting followed silently.

A question posed in front of Anting - where will Gu Xueli stay tonight?

Small towns are different from big cities. The latter are prone to empty towns during the Spring Festival, while the former are more lively during the Spring Festival, with hotels and guesthouses all full.

Anting originally wanted to take Gu Xueli back to her home on Bauhinia Street. Anyway, her father knew her and with the blessing of her celebrity status, it would be no problem.

　“Go to my house.”

But Gu Xueli had her own ideas and denied: “No, I want to spend the night in a nice place.”

"Where?"

Then, she took Anting to the rental building.

　“I want to live here tonight!”

　“Ah...!?”

　This is the rental building of the Anting family. It is naturally very simple for the young man to live here since he has the key.

But...even if you put aside your status as a big star, just letting your friends live in a place like this is a bit unreasonable.

Too lazy...

"Why do you want to spend the night here?"

"On a whim." Gu Xueli said, minding her own business. Upstairs, I came to the single room where I lived.

In desperation, Anting opened the room.

It has been a year and a half since Gu Xueli left the town. This room has been rented out several times. It happened to coincide with the Spring Festival and the tenant terminated the lease.

Before the Chinese New Year, Father An took the time to clean the vacant rental house.

From this point of view, it is still very clean and tidy.

The mattress is covered with a piece of cloth, which can be used directly after opening it. Unfortunately, there is no quilt. Fortunately, it is not cold tonight, so you can use your clothes as a quilt.

"Then I'll leave first."

After bringing Gu Xueli to his rental house, Anting originally wanted to leave.

However.

The next second, Gu Xueli suddenly stretched out her hand and grabbed the boy's wrist, staring at the boy with complicated eyes.

An Ting was stunned.

"Can you stay with me?" As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Xueli may have felt that it was too ambiguous, so she smiled charmingly and said, "This may be the last time I come back, and I want to relive the old times."< br />
A long time ago, you taught me how to play Little Star here.

　"Oh..."

　The reason why Anting did not leave was not only Gu Xueli's personal request, but there were other reasons.

Although it is your own property, the rental house is a mixed place after all.

Some migrant workers do not go home during the Spring Festival. It is easy for problems to arise if a well-known star lives here alone.

Be a flower protector.

It’s past twelve o’clock in the morning.

While the firecrackers from the outside world were still going on, Anting and Gu Xueli sat by the bed and discussed music for a while, and the latter reproduced the song that won the championship, "Falling Stars in Color".

After it was over, she looked at the boy triumphantly and said, "The Internet said I surpassed you, right?"

Looking at Gu Xueli immersed in the world of music Anting couldn't understand the intoxicated look, and once again realized that he was not the same person as her...

An Ting didn't like music, so he couldn't understand the fanaticism in Gu Xueli's eyes.

There has never been A, and there is no transcendence.

But... Anting did not explain this, but said sincerely: "Well, you have surpassed him."

"Giggle, what do you call him? Isn't it you? ?"

An Ting did not answer this question.

Gu Xueli did not ask further questions and played another song "normalnomore"...

One o’clock in the morning.

The two of them were a little sleepy.

Anting glanced at the sofa and said, "I'll sleep over there."

Gu Xueli, who was sitting on the bed, took off her mid-calf boots, revealing her waist-length black pants. Socks, while using a charming tone, said: "Don't be so troublesome. You are about 1.8 meters tall. You can't lie down on the sofa. Come up. Anyway, the bed is big enough. My sister is not afraid of any girl. What are you afraid of?"

That is a two-seater couch, which is really not suitable for Anting’s body shape.

Hearing this, Anting was irritated and smiled, "I'm afraid you'll eat me. Didn't you say you like to eat children?"

"Hahaha..." Laughing After a while, Gu Xueli became more serious and said: "It doesn't matter, I probably won't be able to sleep tonight, so I just want to lie here like this. Just chat with me and lie next to me."

Ann Ting still followed Gu Xueli's wishes.

The two of them lay together, with some buffer zones, and no physical contact.

After lying down, Gu Xueli did not look at Anting, but looked longingly at the yellowed ceiling with a complicated tone.

　“Before, I felt that this rental house was a cage. On the one hand, it protected me, but on the other hand, it trapped me. I was very hesitant. I wanted to go out but didn’t dare to go out. I always hoped that someone would come in. Stay with me, like this."

An Ting seemed to understand, "This is our cage."

"It seems quite appropriate." He said At this point, Gu Xueli paused for a while, then continued: "This is your cage. I finally got out and moved to Nancheng District, but I just ended up in another cage of yours. I am really a good and bad little landlord."< br />
　“Well, I am the culprit.”

　“I am like a fox you have raised for a long time, and I have been tamed so well.”
< br />After being locked up for a long time, I suddenly stood at the exit of the cage and felt at a loss what to do.

The moment the words fell.

Gu Xueli quietly stretched out her hand, took the boy's hand, and said hard, "But, I really have to leave this time."

Feeling the power in her hand , Anting took a deep breath and said: "Go and run towards freedom."

A speechless night.

…

The next day.

The first day of the new year.

The air is filled with the faint aftertaste of firecrackers, and the sun shines on the earth.

When Anting woke up from his sleep,Gu Xueli was gone, and the bed was empty, leaving behind an old guitar and a note.

Knowing that Gu Xueli left without saying goodbye, Anting smiled bitterly and said to himself: "Hey, that's why I said you are a young man who always likes to play this trick."

Hesitated for half a minute.

The boy took the note from the guitar and read it silently.

“You always laugh at me because I am a young man. I don’t even admit it, but you are right. I am a young man. In the end, I still want to leave without saying goodbye in this way.

　Hey, I can’t help but complain, it’s so pretentious.

But, let’s be a little pretentious.

After all, it may be the last time.
< br />When you read this piece of paper, I should have already boarded a plane flying to City S, flying to my own future.

2000 years ago, when I was 15 years old At that time, I was admitted to the best high school in the local area. However, because I had three younger sisters and one younger brother at home, I had to give up my studies and follow the girls from my hometown to work south. I entered the dark assembly line and moved into a rented house that never saw the light of day.

You always say that I am a frustrated literary youth, but if you have experienced a life like mine, you will definitely be as frustrated as me.

But fortunately you don’t understand, That’s why you can warm me.

It was at such a juncture that you appeared as a primary school student. Thank you for giving me that guitar, giving it to me who had nothing.

In the most confused and hesitant time of my life, this guitar gave me infinite motivation and hope. If it weren’t for this guitar, how could I have reached this point now?
< br />But.

Enough is enough.

This guitar is not only salvation, but also torture.

As I said last night If anything, this rental house is like a cage, protecting and imprisoning.

Over time, this guitar seems to have become my identity. Without it, I can’t seem to find my sense of self.
>
At this moment, it is time to return this guitar to you, and I will proceed with my own will.

Little landlord, this should be the last time I call you little landlord, I I will no longer be your tenant or your tool. I am going to find myself, like a caged bird flying to freedom.

I have always been very grateful to you.

I have another selfish request - let’s break off our relationship.

I will not come back again and want to say goodbye to the past.,restart.

No matter how it ends, you are always the light that illuminates me in my story. ”

After reading this letter, the morning light on the first day of the New Year passed over the window sill of the rental house and illuminated this rental house. Anting felt a little complicated.

Later, Anting went to the bathroom and vaguely noticed that his lips were a little red...

He lightly applied it and smelled it. It was a girl’s lipstick.
< br />That woman kissed him secretly.

At that moment, Anting seemed to have guessed what Gu Xueli said at twelve o'clock in the morning last night.

2008 The Spring Festival of 2018.

Anting, who has been reborn for two years, faces separation in a real sense for the first time.

Rationally, this is a good thing for Gu Xueli. No longer being a tool, but looking for yourself.

Emotionally, this is a sad thing. In Anting’s mind, Gu Xueli may be regarded as one of the friends.

About a few days later, he received a call from Zhang Jing, who told him something - Gu Xueli gave up her share of the secret base.

That’s it That 3%.

All is returned to Anting.

In this way.

Anting’s share becomes 59%, and Zhang Jing’s share becomes 59%. 20%, Brother Chuan 20%, and Bao Weiwei 1%.

Anting was surprised by this, but seemed to accept it easily.

Named Gu Xueli A woman will eventually give everything back to herself, whether it is the old guitar or the share of the secret base.

She truly wants to start over.

April is not only the season when redbuds bloom, but it is actually the flowering period of cherry blossoms.

Unfortunately, there are no cherry blossoms on Bauhinia Street.

That cherry blossom is destined to be in the deserted place The corners of knowledge withered and fell into scattered cherry blossoms.
