The woman Lao Hu had a crush on was going on a business trip to the small county town where he was located. When Lao Hu heard the news, he was so excited that he just wanted to jump high. Before getting off work, he said hello to a colleague in the same class and ran away.

He returned home, ran to the bathroom, turned on the shower head and scrubbed, deliberately used a good-smelling shampoo, and applied the cologne men's essential oil soap he bought online on his body. The fine foam flowed all over the floor and accumulated. At the entrance of the sewer, it seems to be blocked.

After rinsing, he walked out of the bathroom whistling and went straight to the big wardrobe in the bedroom. He opened the door and started picking out clothes. He picked up a light gray shirt and looked at it for a long time with his arms raised. It’s too formal.” He put it back.

casually picked up another sports T-shirt. After gesturing on it for a long time, he felt it was too casual, so he tossed around again and finally chose a semi-business and semi-casual pinstripe T-shirt. He put it on and stood in front of the mirror. Twisting around to look at it, it's okay, that's it.

After choosing clothes and still having time, he picked up the phone and wanted to ask the woman when she would finish her work and what her plans would be for the evening: "Dear, where are you now? Where should I find you?"

How much time has passed? Minutes later, the woman replied in surprise: "Looking for me? Are you looking for me for anything?"

"It's okay, it's okay, I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to see you..."

"Is it necessary to meet? Besides, I'm very busy here. , I'm with my client. What's going on with me?"

"Okay, you go ahead and finish chatting. Give me a message..." After sending the last sentence, Lao Hu felt timid. Yes, and a little sad.

In fact, the woman he had a crush on was also his old classmate. He had liked her since school, but due to his shyness and introversion, he did not dare to confess to her until after graduation, they divided their things and the female classmate married Be someone else's wife.

Later, Lao Hu also got married, and everyone passed the time on their own tracks. Time passed like water, and in the blink of an eye, they were already middle-aged.

The marriage of a female classmate is unhappy, and the man she marries is an ignorant and inexperienced swinger. The female classmate regretted marrying him, but they had a child who was in middle school. In order not to affect the child's learning and growth, the female classmate chose to be patient.

I don’t know how these things reached Lao Hu’s ears. Lao Hu felt very sorry for her, and the feeling of pity and pity for her was stirring in his heart.

At the beginning, Lao Hu was just daydreaming. He also had a family. Even though he felt sorry for his female classmate from the bottom of his heart, he could still control himself.

It happened that a year ago, Lao Hu’s wife put a cuckold on Lao Hu, and he put it on. Not to mention, the wife actually ran away with a man outside. Lao Hu was so angry that he didn’t even think about it. He was planning to get a divorce, but he could only watch being raped like this. He really had no place to show his face. A complaint was submitted to the court, but after mediation was invalid, he divorced.

At that time, Lao Hu was fuming with anger. He had been married for more than ten years, his son was in school, and his wife ran away as soon as she told him to. His good family was gone at the last word. He couldn't figure it out. After being depressed and silent for a while, he gradually came out of it. Shadow, then he thought of the female classmate he had a crush on. Although she added WeChat, she didn't talk much at ordinary times, but he often looked through her circle of friends.

Until that day when he saw the picture of the business trip sent by his female classmate, his eyes lit up because it was in the small county where he lived, so the scene at the beginning happened.

Lao Hu had everything packed up, dressed up, and was only waiting for a while before setting off. But he kept waiting and waiting for news about his female classmate. He was on pins and needles at home. Although the county was not big, it was difficult to find someone aimlessly. "Oh, is this going to be okay?" he muttered. With.

Seeing that it was already past eight o'clock, Lao Hu gathered up his courage and sent another message to his female classmate: "Are you done with your work? You came all the way here, why don't you meet?"

This time the female classmate responded well. Timely: "I'm having dinner with a client. If you have anything to say, please tell me."

Old Hu: "Send me your location. I have something to say to you."

Female classmate: "Don't bother, just tell me on WeChat, I'm here Eat on Taihang Street , which is far from the city."

Lao Hu didn't say anything else. The female classmate mentioned Taihang Street, and he already knew a rough idea, because there are only two famous restaurants on Taihang Street. One is the Hunan restaurant in the middle of the street, and the other is at the east end. He was not sure which Cantonese restaurant she went to, but he already knew the approximate location. He looked in the mirror again, combed his hair, and walked downstairs.

After going out, he reached out and stopped a taxi. The car went straight to Taihang Street. He got off the car at the Hunan Cuisine Restaurant and wandered at the door for a long time. He peered through the glass on the first floor. There was obviously no lobby on the first floor. In a single room that should be on the second floor, the old man Hu thought to himself, but he couldn't search around the room. This was impossible.

People in the hotel came out one after another, but no female classmates were found. Old Hu was so anxious that he was sweating. After ordering, he wanted to ask at the front desk, but he couldn't describe it clearly, because he didn't know how many people the female classmate was with, and he didn't know who they were, so he couldn't ask blindly.

Old Hu was wandering around the door again. For a long time, I felt that it was not here, but the Cantonese restaurant on the east side. She said it was far away from the city. Look at my pig head. Lao Hu slapped his forehead, called a car, and went straight to the Cantonese restaurant.

Although the location of the Cantonese restaurant is a bit remote, the business is still good. The lights on the first floor are bright, and lights are on in every room upstairs. There are also people in twos and threes burping at the door. Lao Hu is standing by the doorman. I pulled up a stool and sat down, chatting with the doorman without saying a word, but staring at the passers-by.

At about half past nine, a group of three or five people walked out of the hotel. Lao Hu looked carefully and saw three men and two women. One of the women was unknown. She got into the same Audi car with the other two men. She waved politely to the man and woman under the car and left.

There was a man and a woman. Lao Hu could see clearly that the woman was his old classmate whom he had been thinking about day and night for a while. The man next to him seemed to be a local leader in charge of water conservancy. The female classmate seemed to have drunk a lot of wine. , touching his forehead with one hand, standing there a little staggering, the man supported the woman's arm and walked out together.

Lao Hu looked at it blankly, feeling jealous. The two of them did not go to the parking lot to drive. Instead, they hugged each other and walked toward the roadside. Lao Hu quickly ducked into the shadows and stared at everything, but he didn't have the courage to step forward. What kind of status did he have? It was inappropriate to meet him by chance. Besides, the man was also a well-known local. At this moment, Lao Hu's energy suddenly shriveled up like a deflated rubber ball.

He stared at them blankly from the moment they came out of the hotel to the street. Every move they made was deeply engraved in Lao Hu's eyes. The way the female classmate looked drunk, the way the man put his arm around the woman's shoulder, the way they talked and laughed so intimately... it was all like a movie. , Scenes tumbled through Lao Hu's mind.

He stood there numbly, the smell of shampoo on his hair exuding a quiet fragrance in the slight night breeze. The man and the female classmate stopped him. The car disappeared into the dark night.

It took a while for Old Hu to come back to his senses. He dragged his heavy footsteps and walked back step by step. All his illusions were wiped out at this moment.

sleepless night......
