I'm waiting for you in my memory

Chapter 3 Everyone Loves Situ Jue (1)
The journey back has crossed more than half of the earth, which can be called a tiring journey, but Situ Jue is not sleepy at all.Wu Jiang said that she was jet-lagged and hadn't had time to reverse it. After all, she probably didn't get a good night's sleep for more than 20 hours.Perhaps the two were afraid of leaving her alone in the hotel. If she couldn't sleep and would feel lonely, they proposed to take her to relive the long-lost domestic nightlife. Let's find a place to have a few drinks. Anyway, the friends reunited, and there is so much to talk about. If it is, after the breakup, the tired birds return to their nests, and they just fall asleep.

Situ Jue readily agreed.She didn't tell them that she didn't close her eyes for more than 20 hours.The night before returning to China, she watched the sky outside the window gradually turn from black to white, and she didn't close her eyes for a minute. She couldn't tell why, but she felt that her heart was in a hurry and there was no place to rest it.She was extremely tired when she was on the plane, but as soon as she stepped on the ground, Wu Jiang and Lin Jing followed her one after another like a shot in the arm. Now that the critical point has passed, she doesn't feel sleepy at all.

Arriving at the place that Wujiang had booked early in the morning, the waiter pushed open the door of the private room, and Situ Jue, who was standing in the front, was taken aback on the spot—it was such a big private room, filled with people, she had no doubt that she was taken to someone else’s by mistake The site was about to exit, and Wu Jiang behind him had stepped into the private room, looked back at her who was still in the mist, and asked with a smile: "What's the matter, are we, Situ, scared by this posture?"

While talking, a group of people who were sitting crookedly, singing and drinking came forward with smiles.Situ Jue rubbed his eyes. Those faces may have gained weight, crow's feet, or bald forehead, or completely changed their clothing temperament, but upon closer inspection, none of them were familiar to her. ? !The names of those people who seemed to be forgotten in another world suddenly popped up, right on the lips, ready to be pronounced.

Wu Jiang was right, she was terribly frightened, it was hard to say whether that feeling was an accident or something else, unprepared, Situ Jue was a little frightened by the sudden bustling Yingmen, she couldn't pretend to be a tit Yan was as cheerful as returning to her nest, but she could only stand stiffly among the crowd, with a dazed or indifferent expression on her face.

Fortunately, Lin Jing, who followed Situ Jue in, was more careful and observant. He accompanied Situ at Wu Jiang's invitation, and most of them were old friends of Wu Jiang and Situ. He didn't know him well, but he at least knew Situ Jue. However, this time, I am afraid that there is "surprise" but not "joy".He stood beside Situ Jue, and patted Situ's tense back lightly. Then Situ came back to his senses, and with a smile on his face, he called out the names of those people one by one, and quickly merged into them. Hugs, greetings, and it was very lively for a while.After greeting everyone one by one, Wu Jiang did not forget to introduce Lin Jing to everyone.With Lin Jing's identity and his communicative skills, it is not difficult to integrate into a circle freely. This is a happy gathering for the return of a long-lost friend. Exciting, harmonious, noisy, and eager, it is exactly what it should be.

When Situ Jue was finally able to relax and drink some water, Wu Jiang beside him asked in a low voice: "What's the matter Situ? Just now... I blamed me for not saying hello to you beforehand. They also heard that you were back and really wanted to come and gather with you Ju, I really didn't expect so many people to come...I thought you would be happy."

Of course Situ Jue knew that Wu Jiang had good intentions, how could he know that after so many years, Situ, who used to be the leader among this group of people, would become timid.Facing his friend's apology, Situ Jue smiled, "Why are you unhappy? I'm a sequelae of jet lag and insomnia, and I'm confused when I see so many people."

Lin Jing also broke away from the "little old friends at first sight" chat and sat beside them.

"Situ, are they all your friends from the past? It's so late, and so many people are still waiting to clean you up. It seems that your popularity is so good everywhere." Lin Jing smiled.

Wu Jiang also smiled and said, "How about saying 'everyone loves Situ Jue'?"

"You're talking nonsense again..." Situ Jue gave Wu Jiang a blank look when he heard the words.

Lin Jing nodded in agreement, "Doctor Wu makes sense."

Who doesn't like Situ Jue?Even Lin Jing, who seems to have a wide range of friends and is approachable, but in fact has a high spirit and seldom makes close friends with others, also makes her a close friend.She is beautiful, but she never takes it as a bargaining chip; she is smart, but never aggressive; she is proud, but that is only limited to strict self-requirements; besides, she is also hardworking, funny, kind, and reliable... She is the kind of A friend who can let you tell your secrets boldly but never worry about leaking; she is a partner who can drink with you when you are happy, and a partner who can get drunk with you until late at night and send you home safely when you are depressed; she is a romantic partner when you are emotional. A mess, a lovely woman who is extremely sober when she is rational.In the eyes of good friends, Situ is a natural good jade that the Creator cares for, but there is a word "Jue" in her name.Jue, a half ring, is a jade pendant with a gap.Could it be that the elders who named her also knew the truth that when the moon is full, it will be short, and Huiji will be hurt?Therefore, in Lin Jing's view, Situ, who deserves the most happiness, has a trace of panic and lingering uncertainty in his eyes when he is the happiest.

"What's the point of killing me with your singing and singing?" Situ Jue said disapprovingly, obviously not accepting this.

Lin Jing pointed to the people around, "Where is it, it can be seen that they are sincerely here to gather with you. It is not easy to do this these days."

Situ Jue smiled without saying a word.Although everyone here may not have been "friends" with her like Wu Jiang, and they may not all be close friends like Lin Jing, but all of them were indeed her friends at one time.It's just that when she left, her reputation was ruined and she was too embarrassed. She really didn't expect such a scene to happen seven years later.

Everyone loves Situ Jue.Yes, they all loved her once.Meimei scavenged every beautiful dress from Situ's closet when she was dating; Situ stayed with him for a whole week when Sanpi was broken in love, listening to him complain; and Xiaogen, who looks promising now. Back then, when he was so poor at school that he had no time to eat, it was Situ who handed him the meal card without saying a word. He borrowed it to pay the tuition fee for the last school year. She gave Situ 1000 yuan, and she has never mentioned the word "return" until now.

Situ never thought of gaining gratitude, she only did it because they were friends.But when that incident happened back then, when her reputation was notorious and she couldn't explain it, where were they?Situ could understand their silence and avoidance, but she couldn't forget that there were also their parts in those contemptuous, disdainful, and despicable eyes.

She ran away disgracefully, seven years, maybe time made them forget many things, only remembering her return, remembering that she used to be a person who treated herself kindly, so today they came.After a short period of discomfort, Situ Jue had no choice but to try to forget those glooms and betrayals, talk and laugh with them, and let the past pass like a passing cloud.

Maybe that's why Lin Jing said she was open-minded.But she knows that she is not open-minded, she is not as good as others say, she is also arrogant, willful, and demanding, but these, she only shows to the closest people.She forgives these friends and understands them better, but because of the arrogance in her heart, they are not the people she cares about, and she can't control "others", so she doesn't care, so she can just laugh it off.

After drinking for a while, Meimei and Sanpi began to sing, and the rest of the people probably didn't see each other for a while, chatting happily.Situ Jue enthusiastically dragged Wu Jiang and Lin Jing to "build the Great Wall", euphemistically calling it "regaining the quintessence of China".

While Wu Jiang had no choice but to accompany him, he teased Situ Jue, "Since when have you been so attached to Chinese culture?"

Lin Jing answered with a smile: "She doesn't even know the way home, and she still knows about 'Pornographic'. Her heart is commendable."

Just as he was talking, Situ Jue happily picked up a good card from Xiaogen, his superior, and fired a kong.

Xiao Gen, who was also playing with him, also said: "Situ, your drinking capacity has also improved. After drinking so much wine, you still play cards so well. America..."

"What?" Situ, who was busy sorting cards, was surprised that Xiao Gen didn't finish what he said, and raised his head with a smile. He was about to ask the other party why he looked like he had seen a ghost, but found that the box was eerily quiet at this moment. down.The people chatting fell silent, the drinkers put down their glasses, the singing of K disappeared, and only the empty accompaniment was still whirling around for no apparent reason.The lively scene unknowingly cooled down in a certain moment, and the silence was like a ghost ship on the sea.And the source of all this came from the person standing at the door after the waiter opened the door.

When he walked in, he took his time, turned around and took off his coat, and smiled when he spoke.

"Everyone is here, am I late?"

He took it for granted, as if he was not an uninvited guest, but an ordinary person in the small group present, who missed a friend's gathering because of overtime work, that's all, the stagnant atmosphere and the embarrassment of everyone looking at each other seemed to be related to him. No relationship.

In fact, it is not appropriate to say "look at each other", because the focus of everyone's attention is Situ Jue beside the mahjong table.They looked at him and at her as if they were all overwhelmed by the client.

Situ Jue's position was diagonally facing the door, and she didn't even glance in that direction.In the silence, she suddenly pushed down the cards in front of her.

"Touch yourself, make up!"
