Chapter 84
Ning Chen.
That's enough.
Ning Chen.
Stop drinking.
Ning Chen drained ten bottles of beer in one go.
Under the bar's dazzling colored lights, blue smoke lingered.
All this made Zhao Mengmeng unable to see Ning Chen's expression clearly.
She only knew there was no other expression on his face.
But she could not determine whether he was already drunk.
Then, she saw him turn around and pick up that guitar.
He sat in the center of the warm-up area.
Everyone in the bar watched him.
He lowered his head and began to pluck the strings.
Zhao Mengmeng suddenly felt her entire heart get gripped!
She knew.
Ning Chen must be somewhat drunk.
Otherwise, he would not act this way.
A beautiful slow intro began to play.
Ning Chen started singing.
I came to your city,
Walking the path you once took.
Imagining the days without me,
How lonely you must be.
Holding the photo you gave me,
On that familiar street,
Only your image is gone.
We cannot return to that day.
Will you suddenly appear,
At the corner coffee shop?
I will smile, wave, and greet you,
On that familiar street,
Only your image is gone.
We cannot return to that day.
Will you suddenly appear,
At the corner coffee shop?
I will smile, wave, and greet you,
Sit with you and chat.
How I wish to meet you again,
To see how you have changed recently.
No longer speaking of the past, just greeting,
Saying one thing to you, just one thing,
Long time no see.
In the Tea Horse Ancient Road Bar.
Before, only the guests on the first floor had fallen silent.
Listening quietly.
As Ning Chen began to sing,
The guests on the second and third floors also leaned over at the railings and staircases.
They were all listening quietly.
This strange guest.
The song he sang tonight.
They had never heard it before.
This is a new song.
The band behind the warm-up area looked at each other.
This is indeed a new song.
Otherwise, having seen so many songs, how could the band members have never heard it?
But...
It really is very beautiful.
This guest in the center of the warm-up.
Eyes slightly closed.
Singing in his mouth.
Lost in his own Tao Zui.
And his entire image, perhaps, because of the alcohol he had drunk.
So, he appeared slightly decadent.
But this sense of decadence was just right, perfectly blending with the song he was singing.
What wonderful lyrics.
"Will you suddenly appear, at the corner coffee shop"
"I will bring a smile, wave and exchange greetings"
"With you, sitting and chatting"
This word.
Sung out a speculation after countless expectations.
In this world, the most moving words of love are not necessarily long and heartfelt.
Perhaps, just a few words, are the story of time, aren't they?
Making one think of love letters carried by wild geese, but it is simply:
"How are you?"
"I am very well."
That is all.
For instance, after a long separation, with thousands of thoughts, what comes out might just be:
Long time no see.
The so-called truest feelings are precisely the hardest to express.
Just like, you love someone so much, and want to see her so badly.
But, with the fermentation of time.
Memories settled for a long time ferment on their own.
How many "I love yous" will become "I'm sorry."
How many "I'm sorrys" will become "It's okay."
How many "It's okays" will then become "Thank you."
This feeling.
Tonight, in this Tea Horse Ancient Road bar in Jincheng.
