Middle-aged Love Patch

Cakes, muffins, and tea were served again, and the sky gradually darkened, and clouds that were burnt red by the setting sun floated outside the huge glass windows of the cafe. The huge LED screens inlaid on the densely packed tall buildings on both sides of the long river that divide the old and new towns gradually light up, and the high frequency of publicity, advertisements, and celebrity support make the whole city even more dazzling than before nightfall.

This coffee shop is located in the northwest corner of the spacious circular shopping plaza in the center of the city. The square is too big. In order to facilitate customers to shuttle between different shopping malls in a pleasant and time-saving manner, the ground of the square is paved with tram tracks. The non-stop retro tram is full of people carrying large and small shopping bags, crowded but orderly.

The coffee shop is a newly emerging Internet celebrity shop. The interior is very spacious. There are separate compartments for company meetings. There are also semi-circular sofas around it for gatherings, and more are small partitions, which are convenient for holding laptops in your ears. Office workers who use headphones, make phone calls while working, frantically filling coffee.

No matter if it was twenty years ago or twenty years later, there is no big difference-except that the notebook on the table is getting thinner, the earphones are getting smaller and smaller, and some people have opened their eyes and drank a drink, but they are already connected To the game world...and so on.

Today is Sunday, and there are not many people who can really rest. Shi Yue also just came out in the morning. Except for the one for Xu Youyu, the gifts for everyone else were bought at noon.

It's been too long for Xu Youyuan to go to the bathroom, probably because Shiye also followed.

Shi Yue and her sister's best friends chatted uninterruptedly, looking in the direction of the bathroom from time to time.

Shiyue’s major is the hottest major nowadays. These aunts who were born in early 2000 are unfamiliar and curious about this profession. People are right in front of them. No one patronizes the new tea, and they keep asking questions around Shiyue. It's like a small press conference.

"You are only twenty-three this year, and you have graduated with a master degree? How old did you go to university?"

"Yes, I graduated from a five-year elementary school, and then I skipped one level, and I graduated a year earlier than the usual students who studied separately."

"So what do you major in? Do you deal with robots?"

"It's not necessarily. The artificial intelligence that everyone knows is only a general direction, and there are many more detailed ones. Like what I learned is more practical, it is a popular major in the market."

"Practical? How practical?"

Shi Yue said: "The most practical place is to find a job."

Shi Yue's answer caused a burst of laughter.

The people present basically have no long-term experience of living in foreign countries, and they are naturally curious about Shiyue.

Since the economic depression, refugee problems, and terrorism enveloped overseas two decades ago, Chinese people have become more and more inclined to stay at home. There are still some running out, but the number is decreasing year by year. The domestic economic development is not as good as before. The unemployment rate and crime rate are good, but compared with overseas, personal safety is still more guaranteed.

The modern people's overseas understanding of natural and man-made disasters is mostly through the Internet and news. As a enthusiastic returnee, Shi Yue is young and cute, and extremely chatty. The topic has gradually shifted from foreign experience, professional foresight, and social issues to her personal issues.

"Are there any partners?" Jiang Yun took the lead in gossip, "Is your sexual orientation male or female?"

Everyone booed her: "How can you be like you? Ask people about their children's privacy."

Jiang Yun is confident: "Twenty-three, still a child? Maybe you have more experience in love than you."

"... Are you watching Shiye's absence and no one will pick you up?"

"Looking at the grown-up children, you can also pull the old face to molest."

Shi Yue laughed, Jiang Yun completely shielded them, and kept chasing Shi Yue: "Come on, tell my sister, don't be shy, what type do you like?"

Shi Yue really took care of her: "Me, I like mature sisters."

In the bathroom, the hand movements that were staggering foaming slowed down, and quickly recovered the rhythm that it should have. Xu Youyuan asked:

"She told you everything?"

Shi Ye lowered his voice, and approached Xu Youyuan in disbelief:

"You guys really..."

Xu Youyuan didn't speak, and took a piece of absorbent paper and stuck it on the back of her hand. Soon the water on her hand was soaked up and the paper disappeared.

When Shi Ye saw her unhurriedly, he was anxious:

"How angry are you with a child, she is so much younger than you, a generation behind."

Xu Youyuan was unhappy, she was not a good-tempered person:

"It’s just because I’m so young that I’m angry! Don’t tell me that I’m older than her, I’m eleven years older than her, so I know it very well. What does she mean by asking you to say this now? I don’t know what the **** is your idea? It’s all from that age who doesn’t know who? Shiye, don’t pretend to be garlic. You said it’s useless this time."

"What kind of garlic should I pretend to be, am I not advising you?" Shiye looked at the bathroom door, for fear that someone would come at this time. "Xiaoyue is sometimes a little skinny, after all, she is here for her age. You said it too, it's all. People who have been young, did you lose control in your early twenties? I apologize to you for her, okay? Don't get angry, get angry and hurt."

Xu Youyuan sighed, "Forget it, it's not a big deal. I'm still a divorced person at my age. I care about these things. It's just that a series of bad things have caught up with my aunt's old age. The evil fire in my heart is controlled. Can't live."

Shi Ye smiled and said, "You used to have the same virtue. When the dog has a bad temper, don't rely on Auntie."

Xu Youyuan glanced at Shiye when she buttoned her sleeves again: "You and her are in a good relationship. Tell you everything."

"Of course, there are only two of our children in our family. She is as small as I am, and she has been painful since childhood." Shiye looked at her, "Speaking of which, what about divorced people? Now the divorce rate is so high and same-sex marriage is not good Where are you going, why label yourself yourself."

"I didn't put a label. It's just that it's embarrassing to say this thing... She is so much younger than me, or my younger sister. Looking at the grown-up, just like you said, it's a generation behind." Xu Youyuan did not Knowing what was thinking, his face was red, and his throat was inexplicably dry, so he cleared his throat.

Shi Ye felt that something was wrong more and more: "Wait a moment, Xu Youyuan, what is the matter with you and my sister?"

Xu Youyuan looked at her for a long time and understood: "You don't even know if you dare to love me, right?"

"I thought when you were feuded, she didn't say anything to ask her, she could only ask you. How did it turn out? The more you listen, the more things are wrong, what's the matter!" Shiye lowered his voice and shouted in a low voice.

Xu Youyuan avoided her gaze and gave an annoying "tsk".

Shi Ye understood her too much, and it was just because she understood that she felt more terrible.

"Don't be what I thought..." Shi Ye was like a thief head assigning tasks at night, his voice too small, "You and Xiaoyue..."

"Done." Xu Youyuan's face was expressionless, too lazy to concede and confessed directly.

…

"I like a mature sister, that's just right, what do you think of me?" Jiang Yun said without embarrassment, "My sister has just been single. Look, it's better to come early than to come by coincidence."

Shi Yue happily, stood up amid the teasing of his friends at Jiang Yun and said, "I went to see my sister, why didn't he come out for a long time."

When Shi Yue left, A-Gan pushed Jiang Yun: "You look hungry like a tiger, you are not afraid of scaring others."

Jiang Yun's grievance: "Just treat me as if I have just been green, have mercy on me. I'll just talk about babbling. Who sees a girl who looks good and has a good temper and doesn't like it? Just tease, she's sane. I'm so angry, people won't take my old aunt seriously."

When Shi Yue walked to the door of the bathroom, she heard the voice of someone inside. She slowed down, and when she leaned to the door, she could tell that it was her sister's voice.

"Fuck..." Within the system, Shiye has developed the habit of not speaking dirty words, and even try to avoid words that are next to dirty words. I must be really anxious to be able to speak so bluntly, "Xu Youyuan, what are you talking about? !"

"Done, you heard it." Xu Youyuan turned the collar back, took out the hand cream from his pocket, and wiped it carefully.

Originally, Shi Ye wanted to ask which "did" it was, but he swallowed it again. If you ask this question, you will be mad.

The two stood in the bathroom, silent for a long time without speaking. The OLED screen hanging on the wall is playing the latest popular music. The sound is not loud, and it can cover some embarrassing sounds at ordinary times, but at this moment, it is impossible to cover the deliberately lowered conversation.

Still Shiye spoke first:

"Are you serious?"

Xu Youyuan looked at her.

Shi Ye explained: "I am not an old antique. Of course, I know that the times are different from before. I am very open. But after all, it is my own sister. I always hope that she will not make detours in anything. More importantly... Yuan, I'll just say it straight, you just got divorced and you are stuck in a hurdle. If you are looking for someone to vent and entertain you, I hope that person is not my sister."

You can see that Xu Youyuan's heart is filled with air, and there are obvious ups and downs in her chest.

Shi Ye asked her: "Where have you been these days, and why are you getting involved with Xiaoyue? You really went to Iceland? I met you in Iceland?"

"No."

"What the **** is going on!" Shiye was eager to know.

Xu Youyuan has always disliked circumstance, and since my friend wants to know, there is nothing to hide: "I don't have a hobby of going to bed with children. It's a complete accident.
