Female tenant: 26-year-old heartbeat and life ups and downs

Chapter 44: Chapter 44: Music Night and Soul Dialogue



On the small stage, Robben plucked the guitar strings lightly, and Le Yao sang melodiously. Su Ran drank beer and was absent-minded.

After a while, Su Ran said: "Le Yao really has the potential to become a first-line actress."

CC looked at him with some doubts: "What do you mean?"

"Look, Yang Mi and Fan Bingbing don't sing very well. According to this standard, it is only a matter of time for Le Yao to become a first-line actress." Su Ran teased.

CC smiled: "Su Ran, you are really mean. You tease Le Yao in such a roundabout way. If she knew, she would be furious."

Su Ran was curious and touched Xu Tianna beside him: "Why don't you go up and sing a few songs later? I haven't heard your beautiful singing yet."

"I only like to listen to others singing." Xu Tianna shook her head and refused.

Su Ran felt a little bored, drank a sip of beer, and cast his eyes on Le Yao on the stage again.

After a while, CC asked the waiter to bring a camera, stood up and chose a perfect position to record the appearance of Le Yao and Robben on the small stage.

CC returned to his seat, and Su Ran said: "You are really biased. Why didn't you take a photo of me when I was singing just now to preserve my handsome appearance."

CC smiled and showed him the photo she had just taken: "It's a good photo, maybe it will be a very meaningful photo."

Su Ran nodded, looked at the two people on the stage again, thinking that maybe one day they can really shine in the entertainment industry, then this chorus photo before becoming famous will be precious. But who can know how many difficult days and nights they have experienced behind their road to fame.

This night is simple and pure. Several of them took turns to sing on the stage. Xu Tianna was the quietest, just holding her chin and listening quietly. Perhaps everyone who comes to "Empty City" regards this place as a harbor of the soul, resting in music and feeling the warmth of humanity.

Su Ran was supposed to treat everyone to dinner, but Xu Tianna took out 1,000 yuan before him and put it into the box that symbolized human consciousness. Su Ran proudly showed off to everyone, saying that his "girlfriend" was a rich woman. Everyone joked that he was a "gigolo" kept by Xu Tianna. In fact, this was just a joke between young people. There was not much youth left, and only these laughters could make the last youth time less lonely and heavy. After all, no one wanted to wander alone in the most beautiful years.

When leaving the restaurant, Xu Tianna took the lead in saying goodbye to everyone and drove away, followed by Robben. Su Ran was going to take Le Yao back to the hotel.

On the way, Le Yao, who didn't drink, drove. Su Ran opened the car window, lit a cigarette, and stared at the city under the night sky. I don't know when the sky started to drizzle, and the autumn wind brought a hint of coolness.

Le Yao suddenly changed lanes and turned around to drive in the opposite direction: "It's still early, the hotel is too stuffy, let's go sit by the moat."

"Yeah." Su Ran responded, his thoughts still drifting in the night.

After a while, they came to the moat and sat side by side on the lawn that was slightly soaked by the drizzle. After sitting for a while, Su Ran lay flat on his back on the lawn, letting the drizzle fall, and his emotions gradually emptied in the autumn breeze.

Le Yao lay sideways beside him, her hand on his chest, and whispered in his ear: "Su Ran, Xu Tianna is not your girlfriend, right?"

Su Ran was a little surprised: "How did you tell?"

Le Yao smiled: "Women's intuition. I can feel that she doesn't have that kind of love for you."

Su Ran had to believe that women's intuition was indeed sharp, and he nodded: "Well, she is indeed not my girlfriend. The last time I met Lin Yue, I didn't want her to see my miserable appearance, so I said Xu Tianna was my girlfriend on impulse."

"Lin Yue is back?" Le Yao's tone was full of surprise.

"Yes." Su Ran sighed, lit another cigarette, took a deep breath, put his arm behind his head, and looked at the drizzling sky with melancholy.

Le Yao seemed a little cold, hugged Su Ran tightly, and said nothing. Two people who have ups and downs in life, snuggled up to each other on this rainy night, looking for a trace of warmth.

After an unknown amount of time, Le Yao whispered in Su Ran's ear: "Su Ran, is there a place you long for in your heart?"

"Yes, it's a city." Su Ran answered.

"Is it a city like that restaurant?" Le Yao asked.

"No, it's in the sky, a crystal clear city in the sky, where a beautiful woman with long flowing hair lives." Su Ran described his longing in his heart.

Le Yao thought for a moment and said: "Xu Tianna is the beautiful woman with long flowing hair."

"Not her, her hair is slightly curly." After Su Ran denied it, he asked Le Yao again: "What about you, what place do you long for in your heart?"

"It's a small island opposite the beach, but I don't know where it is. Later, I met a man holding a sail in the middle of the sea. He took me to the island, and we lived on the island, watching the sunset every day. He would cook dinner for me every evening. There was smoke from cooking on the island, and I didn't have to care about the troubles of the world from then on." Le Yao said with longing.

Su Ran smiled: "You have even thought of a story, it is really beautiful, more poetic than my sky city."

Le Yao stopped talking and put her face against Su Ran's. After a long time, she said to Su Ran: "Su Ran, don't think about Lin Yue anymore, work hard for your own life, we should not be defeated by reality."

The cigarette in Su Ran's hand was soaked by rain. He took a deep breath. The fishy smell of rain mixed with smoke made him very uncomfortable. He couldn't help asking himself: Can I really forget Lin Yue, work hard, and become a strong person in life?

This time, he gave himself the answer. Whether he can forget Lin Yue or not, he should work hard. He knew that this job opportunity was exchanged for Le Yao's grievances.

After a silence, Su Ran said to Le Yao: "I should work hard. From today on, I will try to control my life and be a strong person in life."

"Well. Su Ran, hold me tight, it's a bit cold." Le Yao said softly.

The rain continued, and a puddle formed in a low-lying area. The light and shadow of the street lamps were projected on it, as if reflecting the "city in the sky" and the "island across the beach". In this rainy night, they carried their dreams and determination, not knowing where the future would lead them, but at this moment they had strengthened their faith in moving forward. The emotional entanglement between Su Ran, Xu Tianna, and Lin Yue, as well as his struggle in the workplace, will continue to be written on this long road of life, full of unknowns and expectations.
