Night comes as scheduled, and the body that has been tired for a day is finally released. In this huge city, night gives us endless loneliness and allows us to indulge wantonly. Perhaps only at night can the truest self be released. Pain in reality, enjoy in reality, watch powerlessly in reality as youth is submerged little by little in the rush of time Because of Maya, Kyle's A4 has become my private car these days. After finishing the call with Hayden, I drove to the hotel to pick up Maya, and then drove non-stop to That "music-themed restaurant In Empty City". After we arrived, Hayden appeared at the entrance of the alley, carrying my guitar and riding his modified track motorcycle. After parking the car, Maya and I got out of the car one after another. Maya was very happy to see Hayden and greeted him from afar. The two approached, and Hayden put his hand on Maya's shoulder and said jokingly: "Le Yao, long time no see." Maya didn't mind that Hayden was hooking up with her. She looked at the guitar behind him and asked, "Master Luo, are you ready to play gold tonight?" "This is Maxwell's guitar." Maya looked at me again and asked: "Are you going to improvise some songs later?" I nodded and said, "Well, I haven't sung in a restaurant in a long time. I really miss the days when I sang here." "Why do I feel sour when I hear the word "missing"? Hayden said. Maya echoed: "Because it's shameful to miss us, we are both people who look up and look forward, right, Hayden" Hayden nodded: "It makes sense. Only Maxwell is still willing to be shameful from time to time. He has to look back." I smiled. At this moment, Hayden and Maya were singing and teasing me. It was more like a cover-up and escape, but I would not expose it. No matter how perfect he pretended to be in front of others, in the dead of night, all the smudges were applied to cover up. The disguise on the person will still be completely torn apart, because Ye doesn't like people who pretend to be pretentious. The three of them were talking and laughing as they walked through the dark alley toward the restaurant. When I opened the door of the restaurant, the familiar singing voice came first. This time she sang a song called "Xu Wei's Time". She was so engrossed in singing that she didn't even notice the arrival of the three of us. We didn't interrupt, we just found a corner to sit down and listened to this song which gave us many emotional moments. When I sang the line "You are the most beautiful spring in my memory, a yesterday that I can hardly go back to", Hayden and I took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and lit it at almost the same time. I didn't know what Hayden was at this time. mood, but my heart is full of nostalgia for the past. I wish I could go back to that spring, jump into her river, and swim to the end of love. Applause rang intermittently, and I realized that the song "Time" had been sung in the quiet passage of time. I raised my head and looked at the small stage. She had put down her guitar. She noticed our arrival almost at the same time, with a look in her eyes. Full of surprises, of course her surprise came from Hayden and had nothing to do with Maya and me. He walked towards us with a smile and asked the waiter to bring us wine and menus. Hayden didn't have any special reaction to the arrival of , he was still holding a cigarette and tuning his guitar. Standing next to Hayden for a long time, he said: "Long time no see, Hayden." "Sit down, let's have a few drinks together."Hayden said, making room for him, but his tone was flat and without any emotion. He nodded and sat down next to Hayden. He also lit a cigarette and asked Hayden: "How are you doing recently?" "fine." She looked helpless in response to Hayden coping style, but Hayden had always been like this to her, so she had no choice but to fall into silence. The waiter brought the wine and drinks first, and each of us filled the glasses. The three of us started chatting away from Hayden. He flicked the cigarette ashes in his hand and asked me: "Maxwell, why didn't you bring your girlfriend to play with you today?" I was stunned for a moment before answering, "She is quite busy, busy all day long." As soon as I finished speaking, Maya and Hayden beside me asked me at the same time: "Do you have a girlfriend?" At this time, I kind of regretted that day and said that Penelope was my girlfriend. But people always have inertial thinking. I introduced Penelope as a "girlfriend" in front of Wesley and Emily , and then continued to introduce her to Mi Cai. . "Forget it." I replied perfunctorily. Hayden took the fact that I had a girlfriend very lightly. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip without asking any more questions. However, Maya next to him asked with great interest: "Who is it, Maxwell?" "You've seen it before." I said, holding up the wine glass and motioning for Maya to drink one, trying to divert her attention. Maya ignored me, thought for a while, and said, "That's the woman who helped you pay the fine at the police station last time." "Guess." I said, picking up the guitar that had been tuned by Hayden and walking towards the small stage opposite, but I was afraid that Maya would keep asking endless questions. I just sat down on the chair on the stage, and Hayden stood on the stage with me. The two looked at each other, each helpless. I was afraid of Maya's questioning, and Hayden was afraid of the confrontation. Hayden and the sound engineer asked for another microphone, and then said to the band behind him: "Let's play dont by Black Panther." eakyheart. " The band signaled us after finding the right tune. Hayden and I made an OK gesture, then closed our eyes and reveled in the prelude of the song. I was very immersed in the whole song and kept my eyes closed. I didn't open them until the end. I subconsciously looked towards the seats where we had just sat, and found that Penelope had come to the restaurant without knowing why, and was sitting with Luo and me. Hayden applauded, and the diners' eyes also focused on them. A beautiful woman is already very rare. At this moment , Penelope, Maya and the three of them are sitting together, which naturally magnifies the beauty effect infinitely and attracts the attention of diners. However, I feel flustered under this beauty effect, for fear that I will Penelope introduced me to Maya as my girlfriend, and then Penelope exposed her shamelessly. Then I would be embarrassed. I handed the guitar to Hayden and motioned for him to continue. I hurriedly walked off the stage and came to the side of the three women. Just as I was about to speak, Maya said to me: "I'm going to pick you up. I haven't talked to Luo Ben for a long time." We have collaborated with big names." After saying that, he walked towards the small stage. I sat down next to Penelope, and while my attention was on the stage, I lowered my voice and asked Penelope: "How did you find this place? Didn't I already promise you that I would help you clean up those damn cockroaches when I have time?" Why are you in such a hurry?" Penelope looked at me like an idiot and asked for a long time: "Do you think I'm here to find you?" Only then did I realize how pretentious I was when I was so nervous. I remembered that Penelope told me last time that she liked this restaurant, so she would naturally come here to eat and spend money, so today was purely a chance encounter. In order to relieve my embarrassment, I asked Penelope shamelessly: "That song I just sang dont eakyheart is pretty good, isn’t it?” "The man next to you sang very well and didn't pay attention to you."Penelope was talking to me, but she was looking at Hayden on the stage with her chin in her hands, as if she was looking forward to Hayden's next song. I covered my chest, twisted my face with a pained expression and said, "Oh, dear, my heart hurts so much. I'm your boyfriend. You can't do this to me. My heart is broken." "boring." Penelope's attitude made me secretly relieved. If she had betrayed me so shamelessly, it would never have been as simple as "boring". He picked up the glass and took a sip of beer, and then turned his attention to the small stage, waiting for Maya and Hayden to sing a chorus.
