Chapter 162 Drunk

Living in various complex environments is the instinctive pursuit of all animals.

For people, living in this complex society, how to live well is a profound knowledge-everyone has their own unique way of survival.

Some people are exquisite, long-sleeved and good at dancing, and they can go anywhere like a fish in water. Some people are dull and low-key. Although they are not conspicuous, they can do things in a down-to-earth manner and live a good life no matter where they go.

The former depends on wit, the latter depends on dedication.

But Zhou Mo is not, she lives by her intuition.

In fact, a person who is so persistent that he is almost paranoid, so pure that he is almost transparent, and so stubborn that he is desperate, even if he has a particularly outstanding talent in a certain area, is always unwelcome when he walks into the crowd. People in the world prefer to get along with those who are less angular and have a more peaceful personality.

Therefore, since you are not very popular, you must either change yourself to cater to others and the society, or you must have a developed intuition and be able to capture those kind and approachable atmospheres in the crowd at once.

Therefore, Zhou Mo lived in Dunhuang for more than ten days, never talked to anyone, and never responded to anyone's strike-up, but on the one hand, she just intuitively felt that someone was talking to herself same type of animal.

So, without knowing Li Qian's name, who he was, and where he came from, she went directly to ask for the room number, asked him to drink with him, and drank with no defense at all.

Li Qian drank about two or three ounces of a bottle of 52% local liquor, and everything else went into Zhou Mo's stomach, and from the beginning to the end, she didn't even take a bite of peanut beans, just drinking purely.

Cup after cup.

She didn't even urge Li Qian, it seemed that to her, it was enough for her to have a reassuring person sitting across from her and watching her drink—as she herself said, she didn't ask someone to drink, but Really just want to find someone to drink with her.

However, she seems to drink well.

After drinking seven or eight taels of white wine, his face only blushed slightly, and he walked steadily.

Li Qian cleaned up a large plate of fried mutton, and then the two happily settled the bill and strolled back.

The night is already very dark, and there are still many foreign tourists wandering, eating, joking and taking pictures on the streets.

It's hot here during the day, but cool at night.

After leaving the small restaurant, Zhou Mo swayed like a high school girl, bouncing up and down from time to time, with a pure and undisguised smile on her face.

"Hey, what are you going to see in Qinghai Lake?" she asked.

Li Qian was still holding the sunglasses for her, and after thinking about it, he said, "Do you want to listen to the truth or the fake?"

Zhou Mo actually thought about it seriously, and said with a smile: "It's fake, it's usually more reasonable."

Li Qian nodded and said, "Qinghai Lake is beautiful. Many people say it is beautiful, so I'll join in the fun and go see it. After I get back, I can brag to my friends and say that I have also visited Qinghai. Lake. Well, you haven’t been there, so you don’t know, it’s really beautiful there!”

Zhou Mo laughed out loud.

Some passers-by looked at her in amazement, but the evening wind messed up her hair, and strands of her hair covered her delicate and delicate face, and no one recognized her for a while.

After laughing, she said to Li Qian, "That's a good statement, and I'll tell people the same when I go back."

At this time, she seemed to be much happier again, jumping up and down along the way, like a sparrow in spring.

Walking all the way back to the entrance of Donglai Inn, she lived on the second floor, so the two separated at the stairs on the second floor. Li Qian handed her sunglasses over, Zhou Mo waved at him, and wobbled towards his own. room to go.

Maybe not drunk, but she was still a little tipsy.

Li Qian watched her go to the door, saw that she took out the key and opened the door, and was about to turn her head to go upstairs, but she suddenly stopped leaning against the door, and called Li Qian, "Hey..." Li Qian stopped, looked back at her, There was still a smile on her brows, her eyes were slightly squinted, she seemed a little drunk, and asked: "If I wanted to know the truth just now, what would you say?"

Li Qian shrugged, "Qinghai Lake is beautiful. I want to go and see it. When I get back, I can brag to my friends, saying that I have been to Qinghai Lake, and that Qinghai Lake is really beautiful. When the time comes, um...you know of!"

Zhou Mo smiled and said, "Good night!"

Li Qian nodded and said, "Good night!"

Then the two entered the door one by one and went upstairs one by one.

Early the next morning, Li Qian was about to go downstairs to have breakfast after waking up. When he opened the door, he found that she was smoking and waiting alone in the corridor outside his door. After being surprised, he smiled and said, "Get up so early?"

Zhou Mo turned her head and saw him, with a relieved expression on her face, she smiled and asked, "Are you going to leave today? Or..."

Li Qian smiled and said, "No, today I want to go to the Mogao Grottoes again, let's go tomorrow, okay?"

Zhou Mo nodded and said, "Well, then I'll go back to sleep!" After a pause, she said, "I live in 207, remember to call me before you leave!"

At this moment, Li Qian's heart was inexplicably tugged, and he asked, "Did you...didn't sleep last night?"

Zhou Mo stroked her hair, smiled childishly, and said with some embarrassment, "I'm a heavy sleeper, and I often oversleep, especially after drinking...then go play, I'll go back to catch up on sleep!"

While speaking, she staggered towards the stairs.

Li Qian watched her walk over, saw her turn around and waved at him, smiled at her, and watched her disappear.

... ... ...

Zhou Mo fell asleep until six o'clock in the afternoon.

Then she did nothing else, simply cleaned herself up, put on her big sunglasses, went downstairs, sat on the sofa in the lobby on the first floor of the inn, smoked, and was in a daze.

Look lonely and lonely.

But when Li Qian stepped in, her eyes lit up immediately, she stood up with a smile and waved to Li Qian.

Li Qian went over, and the two sat down, Li Qian asked her: "Are you awake? Did you sleep comfortably?"

She smiled, "You are so young, don't care about people so much, okay?" After a pause, she smiled and said, "Let's go to a bar?"

Li Qian just laughed and said: "I just found a shop selling rice porridge at the intersection of the street. You can accompany me to drink a bowl of porridge and eat a steamed stuffed bun. Then I will treat you to drink the Xifeng wine in my car. Would you like me?" ?”

Zhou Mo's smile paused, she turned her head slightly, and after a while, she turned her head to look at Li Qian, and said, "I don't want to eat, you go eat, I'll accompany you!"

Li Qian shook his head firmly, "I don't want to drink, but I drank with you last night!"

Zhou Mo scratched her head blankly, looking at Li Qian pitifully.

But Li Qian spread his hands and said that there was no need to discuss.

So she nodded and said, "Then... well, can I just have a few sips? Also, I don't like steamed stuffed buns."

But Li Qian smiled and said: "I've found out. The buns are not only filled with mutton, but also with vegetarian fillings. You can eat vegetarian fillings. As for porridge, you must drink a bowl, and take a bite. This is a deal." I don't even do it!"

Zhou Mo smiled, her smile was so pure that it was indescribably green and beautiful, after a while, she said: "You are the first to persuade me to eat like this..." But after a while, she nodded, "Okay, let's go Bar!"

... ... ...

Most of the out-of-towners who come to Dunhuang like to call friends and eat local fried lamb, or simply roast whole lamb, but some people have long been tired of eating these, and they like to drink hot millet Porridge.

When Li Qian and Zhou Mo walked into the small shop, there were four or five tables of guests sparsely seated inside.

There are many single travelers, and there are also a pair of elderly couples, but there are no young couples.

The boss seems very dull, fat and greasy on the apron. It looks like a cook in charge, but the lady boss cleans up neatly. With a strong local accent in Mandarin, she warmly greets the two of them to enter the shop and sit down. .

Li Qian ordered a bowl of millet and mung bean porridge, a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, and also ordered a small stir-fry, a cold dish, and four large buns with two meat and two vegetables.

At this time, the two of them looked more like a young couple who came in to rest after a long walk.

The proprietress brought something up, and Li Qian pushed the bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge in front of her, "Here, we must drink it up, otherwise we will have no fun!"

Zhou Mo pursed her lips, looking at the big bowl of porridge in embarrassment.

She wondered if her stomach could hold such a big bowl.

Then, Li Qian gulped down steamed buns and porridge, acting like no one else.

After a while, Zhou Mo took a spoon and took three or five sips. The porridge was a little hot, but she nodded and said, "The craftsmanship is not bad."

Li Qian smiled and pushed the two vegetarian stuffed buns in front of him, "Eat!"

Zhou Mo shook her head and saw that there seemed to be lotus seeds in Li Qian's bowl, so she stretched out a spoon, scooped up a spoonful and brought it to her mouth. She nodded while chewing and swallowed it. She said, "Let's change!"

Li Qian just smiled and pushed his bowl over, and Zhou Mo pushed hers over too.

But at this time, Li Qian pushed the steamed stuffed bun in front of her again and said, "Eat!"

Zhou Mo looked up at him, with a rare look of calmness in her eyes.

It seemed that she was expressing her stubbornness and disgust for Li Qian's approach.

But Li Qian didn't back down, just looked at her.

After a while, she shrugged her shoulders in a rare way, picked up a big bun, took a bite viciously, and then chewed and swallowed with difficulty.

Li Qianli finished his two steamed buns quickly, and asked with a smile while drinking the porridge, "How long has it been since you have eaten food?"

Zhou Mo glanced at him, shook her head, swallowed a mouthful of buns, and said, "Wine is made from grain, don't think I don't know!"

Li Qian smiled wryly and shook his head.

After a while, Zhou Mo ate half of the steamed stuffed bun with great difficulty. She stared at Li Qian for a long time, and when she saw that Li Qian was still ignoring her, she asked, "Hey, you just graduated from high school. Right? You must have a girlfriend, right? So, do you usually control your girlfriend like this?"

Li Qian shook his head and said: "My girlfriend is like a little pig, she never needs to be persuaded to eat. Unlike you, like a cat, it's more embarrassing for you to eat than to kill you!"

Zhou Mo smiled, lowered her head and took another bite of the steamed stuffed bun. While chewing sobbingly, she said, "You have to keep your word. I ate steamed buns and drank porridge, so you have to drink with me!"

At this time, Li Qian had already finished his portion, so he just sat there and watched her eat.

Then, suddenly, Li Qian stretched out his hand and said, "Where's your cigarette, give me one."

Zhou Mo was a little surprised, "You still smoke?" While speaking, she took out her own cigarette, as if she liked to share it with Li Qian, she enthusiastically knocked out one and offered it along with the lighter.

Li Qian lit a cigarette, took a puff, savored it for a while, took another puff, savored it for a while, and then directly extinguished the cigarette.

From the beginning to the end, Zhou Mo looked at him, saw that he had stubbed out his cigarette, and asked, "Why don't you stop smoking?"

Li Qian smiled and said calmly: "Smoking too much is not good for your health."

Zhou Mo looked at him with a pure face for a moment, a little confused, and seemed a little stunned. After a while, she lowered her head and drank the porridge again.

... ... ...

In Li Qian's trunk, there are really three or four bottles of Xifeng wine left.

It wasn't any top-notch stuff, just ordinary stuff bought in a county in northern Shaanxi. Li Qian drank it, and felt that the wine seemed to be stronger than yesterday's bottle of local wine.

But today, Zhou Mo seemed to be a little bit more drunk after drinking seven or eight taels of wine.

After leaving the small restaurant, she began to giggle nonstop.

Sometimes she was staring at a certain scenery on the side of the road, sometimes she was staring at a certain person, and sometimes she was backing up, backing up, her eyes closely following Li Qian's steps, and then she suddenly giggled silly.

With this appearance, she really looks like she is only seventeen or eighteen years old.

Li Qian asked her why she was smiling, but she didn't answer, she jumped and danced like a skylark, and then giggled alone.

This time, as usual, it was Li Qian who helped her hold the sunglasses.

When they reached the stairs on the second floor, Li Qian handed back the sunglasses to her as before. She took them, but she was not in a hurry to go back to the room. She just breathed out alcohol and stared at Li Qian. After a while, she came over and the two of them Eye to eye, only a few centimeters apart.

This time, her breathing was full of alcohol, her face was also flushed, and she had an indescribable strange coquettishness——the faint fragrance that Li Qian smelled last time, could not be smelled at all at this time. arrive.

Her eyes are not small in the first place, and they look bigger when she loses weight.

At this time, the two looked at each other, and she asked slowly, "You won't lie to me, will you?"

Li Qian was puzzled and showed a puzzled expression.

She just smiled, smirked, and said, "Tomorrow, you will definitely wake me up, right?"

Li Qian suddenly felt a little distressed.

Even though he clearly knew that the girl in front of him should not be considered a girl anymore, she was already around 30 years old, she had been married and divorced before, she should be a mature woman by now. What's more, as long as she wants, she can become the most shining star in the domestic pop music scene at any time, standing aloof and being courted and chased by countless people.

But at this moment, Li Qian really felt distressed.

So, he nodded and said, "Don't worry about sleeping, I will definitely wake you up, let's go to Qinghai Lake together."

Zhou Mo nodded, seemingly relieved all of a sudden.

Then, she turned around and walked back with three swaying steps, humming a familiar tune softly as she walked.

Li Qian listened carefully, and he recognized that it was "One Year Old, One Dry and Prosperous"——

"Spring is here, so I sprout,

At that time, I didn't know the prosperity and change of the world,

I just want to work hard to bloom a fragrant and beautiful flower.

You came, so I love,

Under that hedge on that midsummer morning,

I am a fragrant and beautiful flower.

..."

She hummed very well.
