Chapter 29: Elopement

In Yan Yan's puzzled eyes, I said, "Don't look at me with your puzzled big eyes. Have you ever damaged the circle? The young couples have damaged each other's healthy development of their relationships. Who here knows that I am a strong person in Zhaoyang."

After saying that, he complained to Mi Cai, "Don't make trouble, let's go home and flirt with me, and these are all bad friends, don't be with them."

"Zhaoyang, you are really crazy. For your own tall image, you have demeaned my group of people!" Xiang Chen said.

"I've always been good at doing this!"

This time Mi Cai took the initiative to answer: "Then I said you have a bad character, right?"

"That's right!" Everyone agreed, then smiled knowingly, picked up their glasses and clinked them, and the atmosphere finally became more lively.

I drank the remaining half of the bottle of beer in one sip, and felt a little relieved. From the corner of my eyes, I looked at Jian Wei. Since entering the bar, she has been even silent than Mi Cai, and only occasionally said a few words to Xiang Chen.

Everyone continued to chat. Although I sat next to Mi Cai, I didn't dare to have any physical contact with her because I was afraid that she would turn against her. Now I just hope to end the party peacefully and would not be willing to attend again in the future. At this moment, only I know the pain in my heart. I just want to stand behind Jian Wei and Xiang Chen and silently wish them happiness, rather than like now.

I was laughing and scolding with everyone against my will, which made me feel pain, but I couldn't escape.

It’s human! Wearing a mask that is not only the face, but also the heart that hurts!

Robben in the distance finally finished singing. He looked at me with a microphone and said, "Zhaoyang, come up and sing two songs to help your friends."

As soon as Robben finished speaking, Jian Wei was the first to applaud, then Fang Yuan, Xiang Chen and others also applauded together, whistling, and the atmosphere of the entire bar became high.

I glanced at everyone, nodded at Robben, and then walked towards the stage.

Robben handed me the guitar in his hand, and took a handful of bass from band member Xiao Wu to cooperate with me. I took a deep breath and asked for a song "Eloping".

"I elope for you..." I said and pulled the guitar strings, closed my eyes and some broken images floated into my mind again.

"Dedicate your youth to the glorious city behind you. For this beautiful dream, we pay the price and leave love to the most sincere girl around me. You sing with me and you wander with me and both sides are hurt. It was not until now that I suddenly realized that my dream is true love and freedom, and I want to take you to elope to the farthest town.

I want to take you to elope and be the happiest person... elope, elope, elope..."

In the torn sound, I improvised the adaptation and sang three elopements in a row. My emotions were completely released at this moment. Before Jian Wei went abroad, we were forced to go to the ends of the world. We hid from Shanghai to Suzhou, and wanted to elope from Suzhou to Tibet. At that time, we naively thought that we could elope to the ends of the world with the courage in this song. We also thought: a guitar, two people, running wildly is the happiest person, and even thought: elopement can allow us to steal the lives of two people from the real world...

The music of heavy metal tear apart the desire, and all the worldly noise is drowned in this song "Elop". I have never been so hysterical that I can't break through the world and the illusion!

The sound of the music gradually stopped, and the applause began to thunder. I still raised my head and returned the guitar to Robben beside me for a long time, and walked towards the bathroom without looking back.

In the bathroom mirror, my face was covered with water stains, but I was glad that I finally concealed the pain and the tears of frustration.

Once upon a time, she was my faith in this city of desire. Now, faith collapsed ruthlessly, so all the wounded, painful, and longed were suppressed in the heart, and finally overwhelmed in the time of a song, mutating and colicing my nerves.

...

Outside the bar door, everyone said goodbye. The three of us men were drinking a little high. Fang Yuan walked towards their car with Yan Yan's shoulders. Jian Wei supported Xiang Chen, who was unconscious, and only Mi Cai and I kept a distance that was not easy to detect.

Jian Wei helped Xiang Chen into the car. When she thought she was about to leave, she turned around and walked towards Mi Cai and me.

She stood in front of Mi Cai and me, but did not look at me, and said to Mi Cai, "Go back and give him a cup of milk soaked in honey, and he has a bad stomach."

Mi Cai nodded, and then Jian Wei looked at me who was a little unsteady, then nodded to Mi Cai, without saying anything, and turned around and walked towards the car over there.

I stared at her back and couldn't come back to my senses for a long time!

"She has left..." Mi Cai next to me said to me.

"Oh." I replied numbly.

"Where do you live, I'll take you back."

"No, I'll just take a taxi by myself."

Mi Cai smiled and said, "I promised your ex-girlfriend to make you a cup of honey milk. I don't like to break the trust."

"Then let's go."

...

Mi Cai drove the car, and I sat in the passenger seat, watching the car pressing against the light and shadow of the city shuttle through the tall buildings, I felt a little dizzy, I knew I was drunk.

After being silent for a long time, Mi Cai finally asked me: "The song you just sang to your ex-girlfriend, right?"

"She...named Jian Wei."

"Why, don't you like others calling her your ex-girlfriend?"

I replied somewhat unscrupulously: "The two people who have already separated... from each other, call them cleanly. Wouldn't it be better to call them by name?"

Mi Cai smiled and said, "I'm afraid you're not as clean as you say."

I didn't answer, stared at Mi Cai for a long time, and suddenly said, "Drive quickly, I want to vomit."

"Then you get out of the car and vomit."

"Go home and vomit, hurry up." I urged again, and my words became fluent.

Mi Cai stepped on the brakes and the car stopped immediately: "Don't you feel uncomfortable if you get off the car and vomit? There is a river there."

Although I was dizzy, I didn't want to vomit. The reason why I vomited was that I didn't want to talk to her about Jian Wei, but under the inertia caused by this sudden brake, all kinds of wine accumulated in my stomach almost spewed out. This woman seemed to be able to expose my lies and then punish me.

I opened the car door, rolled and crawled towards the river and vomited hysterically.

I was a little exhausted and lay flat on the ground in a large shape, looking at the twinkling starry sky with dizziness.

Mi Cai came to me and handed me a tissue, and said in a reproachful tone: "Let you drink so much more!"

"You didn't... step on that, I won't vomit at all with that brake." I still said in a slight manner.

"Is that so, you were fooling me again just now?"

Only then did I realize that I was not acting like a person anymore, so I pretended to be dead and lay motionless on the ground.

"You keep pretending, I'll leave first."

I remembered the night when Mi Cai was thrown in the wilderness, grabbed her hand and said, "Don't leave..."

I held Mi Cai's hand tightly and refused to let go, for fear that I would fall alone in this area where few cars passed by.

Mi Cai was a little panicked. She struggled while letting me loose. I hugged her legs tightly, as if I had found support, comfort, and lost past.

"Zhaoyang, please let go quickly. If you drink too much, don't be crazy." Mi Cai's words became even more nervous. Such physical contact was too close for us.

"Let me hold me for a while and don't leave..." My voice was already choked.

"I'm not Jian Wei, Zhaoyang, please be more awake!" Mi Cai pressed my shoulders, struggled violently, and finally pushed me to the ground, running towards his car.

Lying on the ground again, my world was dim, and the cold autumn wind blew me up and gradually woke me up. After lying for a while, I got up and walked towards Mi Cai's car. Mi Cai was still scared and firmly disagrees with me sitting in the passenger seat and driving me to the back.

The car started again, driving towards the lights in front of me with the loss I gradually woke up.
