When Yang Jingxing and Qi Qingnuo returned to the bar, they were grabbed by a table of people. There were five or six young people in their 24s and 45s who were familiar with Qi Qingnuo. Yang Jingxing knew them one by one, and half of them had English names. A fashionable beauty

Inviting Yang Jingxing to sit down and have a drink, Yang Jingxing said, "I'm sorry, I have to drive...you guys should have fun."

After returning to the corner, Qi Qingnuo said, "How old do you think Karen is?" She was the woman who was more enthusiastic about Yang Jingxing.

Yang Jingxing said: "Twenty-seven or eight."

Qi Qingnuo said: "She has been divorced for four years and her child is five years old and they don't even recognize her anymore."

Yang Jingxing was surprised: "You are so familiar?"

Qi Qingnuo smiled: "I heard it from someone I'm not familiar with."

After a while, Karen came over, sorted the scarf in front of Yang Jingxing and took out a business card: "I admire musicians and hope to have the opportunity to collaborate."

The business card is also in English. He is the department head of some kind of public relations company. Yang Jingxing flattered him: "If we have the opportunity to cooperate, it means that I am prosperous."

Karen smiled: "Our Yatong partners are all international companies... Are you and Nuonuo classmates?"

Qi Qingnuo said: "Junior brother, you are a freshman freshman brat."

Yang Jingxing smiled.

Karen looked at Yang Jingxing: "I know two of Nono's male classmates. You are more... different."

Yang Jingxing asked Qi Qingnuo: "Do you know the twins?"

Qi Qingnuo chuckled and looked away, ignoring him.

Yang Jingxing asked Karen: "Are those your colleagues?"

Karen said: “Some are and some are not.”

Yang Jingxing said: "It's definitely not the one in red."

Karen was curious: "Why?"

Yang Jingxing said: "He has looked at you several times."

Karen glanced at her companions and smiled: "We are not colleagues, but colleagues... have you looked at them?"

Yang Jingxing said: "No, I guessed it."

Qi Qingnuo commented: "You are boring enough."

Karen smiled: "We will leave in a moment. I hope we have a chance to see you again... Before I leave, can I listen to you play another piano piece?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Forget it, I think her salary is not as high as yours."

Karen didn't understand at first, and then felt a little embarrassed: "Did you hear that?"

Yang Jingxing smiled: "If you are beautiful, you should speak softer."

"Sorry." Karen kept smiling, but she was a little confused.

Yang Jingxing added: "How about if I play a song and you say you are happy to hear it, it's a treat and everyone is happy?"

Karen looked at Yang Jingxing for a while: "Okay, it's a deal."

Yang Jingxing said: "You go and declare victory first."

Qi Qingnuo asked in a low voice: "They made a bet?"

Yang Jingxing nodded: "I'll give you face."

Qi Qingnuo said: "No need."

After a while, Yang Jingxing actually played a piece of Well Tempered, but he didn't listen to it. Only Karen and Fu Feirong applauded him. Then Karen and the others really left. Karen paid the bill as promised and asked

Yang Jingxing: "When can I see you again?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I will still be here within half an hour."

Karen smiled.

Qi Qingnuo asked: "What if she comes back later?"

Yang Jingxing asked: "Will he not come back?"

Qi Qingnuo twitched the corner of his mouth to change the topic: "Where were we talking about before?"

Yang Jingxing said: "She said her child is five years old and she is divorced."

Qi Qingnuo nodded: "Yes, I know a lot of people like this. Do you want to introduce me? Don't worry, I'll keep my mouth shut and help you maintain a tall image."

Yang Jingxing said: "You can't lie to yourself."

Qi Qingnuo said: "This is how you look to me! Hey, do you usually go outside or take it home?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Forget it, let's talk about art."

Qi Qingnuo asked: "What kind of art?"

Yang Jingxing thought for a while: "I really don't understand."

Qi Qingnuo asked: "Did you ask Yu Xinting to call me?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I told her you won the award."

Qi Qingnuo looked at his empty cup and suggested: "How about another cup?"

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "That's enough."

Qi Qingnuo suggested again: "Take me for a ride."

Yang Jingxing agreed.

The car circled around the bar. Qi Qingnuo opened the window and the cold wind blew. Yang Jingxing said it was useless and could only drive slower.

Qi Qingnuo occasionally said: "Do you feel lonely?"

Yang Jingxing shook his head: "I basically don't."

After a while, Qi Qingnuo asked again: "Where is the emptiness?"

Yang Jingxing said: "It's not bad."

After a while, Qi Qingnuo asked again: "Have you ever felt that no matter it's family, friendship, love, gain or dedication, career... nothing can fill that unknown void? You are completely powerless.

We can’t remain indifferent.”

Yang Jingxing laughed dryly: "I think my understanding is a bit blank."

After another long silence, Qi Qingnuo said, "I really want to travel."

Yang Jingxing supported: "Go during the holiday."

Qi Qingnuo pitied herself: "There is no destination... Can you take me to a place I have never been to in the shortest possible time?"

Yang Jingxing asked: "Men's room?"

Qi Qingnuo didn't even tilt his head, leaning on his chair and looking out the window with an expressionless face.

Yang Jingxing said, "Then stop bragging."

Qi Qingnuo raised his hand to close the window, and Yang Jingxing accelerated. After a while, he was on a wide and empty road with almost no cars, and the speed became even faster.

As the crowds became increasingly sparse, Qi Qingnuo turned his gaze and asked, "Where are we going?"

Yang Jingxing said: "I don't know either."

Qi Qingnuo closed his eyes: "Call me when you get there."

Yang Jingxing drove at a speed of 80 for more than half an hour. After passing through a deserted area, he slowly saw lights again. It should be a small town, with its name written on the road sign.

Yang Jingxing stopped at a gas station. Qi Qingnuo opened his eyes, looking a little sleepy: "Are we here?"

Yang Jingxing asked: "Have you been here?"

Qi Qingnuo looked around and said, "No."

After filling up the gas, Yang Jingxing drove into the town and looked around. It was quite remote here, and I didn't see any buildings with more than ten floors. It was past twelve o'clock, and Yang Jingxing finally found a supper shop that was still open and stopped the car.

.The street is a bit dirty, with small buildings of three or four stories on both sides.

Hearing Yang Jingxing speak Mandarin, the boss was not used to it: "You're from Puhai? It's so late, where are you going?"

Yang Jingxing smiled: "Travel."

"A journey in the middle of the night to Shiling?"

Yang Jingxing said: "Boss, I won't order any more. Please choose the best and cook us some. We're really hungry."

Qi Qingnuo said: "I'm hungry too...the more I think about it, the hungrier I get."

The boss discussed a few names of dishes, but neither Yang Jingxing nor Qi Qingnuo had any objections. Yang Jingxing asked, "Do you still want to drink?"

Qi Qingnuo shook his head: "Eat! I didn't eat much in the afternoon." He looked at the untidy tables, chairs and benches in the shop and rubbed his hands.

Yang Jingxing took out something like an electric heater and placed it next to Qi Qingnuo. He turned it on, and there was a burst of red light and a slight warmth.

The food was served very quickly. There were ribs, tofu and other things cooked in a small round pot. It was placed on the small gas stove on the table, and bursts of steam came out.

Qi Qingnuo couldn't wait to taste a piece: "It's delicious... Yu Xinting is going to praise life again, rice, I want rice."
