The mystery of men's blind date: flying with wings or meeting the Hongmen feast?
It was a sunny afternoon, and Lu Xuanbai, accompanied by a friend, walked into a high-end private restaurant next to Wuhan Station. This is a long-arranged blind date occasion, although he is not enthusiastic about these worldly things, but in order to be able to get rid of his mother's worries, he has to reluctantly agree.
The restaurant was elegantly decorated and fragrant, and the manager led them to a private room on the second floor. Surprisingly, when he pushed the door in, a familiar face appeared in front of him. Sitting there is his friend Xiaohong at the same table in elementary school!
Lu Xuanbai was almost stunned. Xiaohong's big shining eyes looked at him and smiled. Back then, she was a well-known bully in the class, with excellent action and pungent cleverness. I didn't expect to be wearing a cheongsam now, charming and gentle, judging two people.
"It's been a long time since I've seen my classmates from elementary school." Xiaohong looked at Lu Xuanbai, and her tone was nostalgic and a little provocative, "I didn't expect you, a little mischievous who did all kinds of evil back then, to become such a polite and good old man now." What a surprise to me!"
Lu Xuanbai was at a loss by this sudden scene, and subconsciously turned around and left. Who knew that Xiaohong reached out and grabbed his collar and winked slyly: "This time you can't fly with wings, my dear old classmate!"
In this way, an unexpected old incident suddenly made a comeback, forcibly tying the trajectory of the lives of the two together. Lu Xuanbai was embarrassed, so he had to sit down and decide to settle this troublesome situation first.
The aperignost was poured on the table, but the atmosphere was a little awkward. Lu Xuanbai felt as if he had fallen into some trap, and his thoughts were disorganized. He glanced at this long-lost old classmate, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.
Xiaohong didn't seem to care about the silence, and leisurely sipped the wine: "Do you remember when we were in elementary school, we liked to chase and fight on the playground the most? You're always a mischievous little mischievous little mischievous who does all kinds of evil all the time. Love to play tricks on people and cause trouble. I'm the little overlord but your number one rival, and I often fight wits and courage with you, and you can't afford to lose at that moment. "
Lu Xuanbai was reminded of the memories of the past, and couldn't help but echo: "I was really naughty and arrogant at that time, but you, the little overlord, are no better, you are powerful all day long, and you love to be smart." Let's just say that you stole my candy and I caught you, but you..."
In this way, the two began to reminisce about each other's childhood past. From the conflict and competition that we were not used to seeing each other at the beginning, to the friendship that gradually cultivated later. Lu Xuanbai remembered that Xiaohong had spent the New Year alone at school because of the family environment, so he secretly gave her the Chinese New Year's Eve meal brought by the family; And Xiaohong often deals with school bullies for him. At that time, the friendship was simple and beautiful, without impurities.
"We were so carefree then." Xiaohong sighed and said, "I don't know anything, I just know how to get into trouble everywhere." Now that we are all middle-aged, you and I have long lost contact. It's really emotional. "
Lu Xuanbai nodded, and began to recall his later life trajectory. From a stubborn troublemaker, he later entered the society, faced various setbacks and challenges, and gradually transformed into the good old man he is today.
They say a word, as if they are reassembling together each other's forgotten chapters of life. Lu Xuanbai listened to Xiaohong tell how she later started a family and encountered various life encounters. And Xiaohong was surprised by the huge contrast between Lu Xuanbai's current net worth and temperament.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is dusk. The museum gradually became deserted, but the old friends were still chatting with interest, as close as if they had never been separated.
"What old love has existed between you and me?" Xiaohong suddenly blinked at Lu Xuanbai, and said a pun.
Lu Xuanbai smiled dumbly, unguardedly amused by this unintentional remark. Then he waved his hand and denied: "We were all just children at that time, how could there be any ......?"
"Haha, I'm kidding." Xiaohong was overjoyed, and then whispered mysteriously in her ear: "But maybe, we will have new developments next time."
The sly smile flowed in her eyes, causing Lu Xuanbai to cry and laugh, but she also faintly looked forward to what kind of new page the future of this marriage would open to the past.
In fact, long before this blind date, Lu Xuanbai was wary of this kind of carefully arranged blind date. He once half-jokingly said to his friends that if he met a real man, it would be fate. Now such a coincidental encounter is really ridiculous, and it can be called an excellent joke about a marriage encounter.
It's as if fate has secretly orchestrated a clever trap for them, so that these old and new childhood friends can come together, re-examine each other, and have the opportunity to re-recognize and cherish this precious friendship and fate.
To a certain extent, Lu Xuanbai should be grateful for this blind date arrangement. Perhaps it is not destined to be an ordinary blind date, but a different journey with the most sincere emotions of the past, a gift from God to make him cherish friendship again.
When Lu Xuanbai recovered from this unexpected reunion, he began to reflect on the impact and inspiration that this childhood friendship had brought to his life.
Xiaohong beside her has turned into a charming urban woman at this time, but her domineering energy and pungent personality are still missed. She is like a mirror, reflecting the naughty and flamboyant appearance of Lu Xuanbai's heart. It was the comings and goings of those simple years that honed his tenacious character in the face of many social tests.
Life is such a reincarnation, you and I as a teenager may just be blinded by the veil of reality, and with the growth of experience, we gradually realize the value of friendship. It not only gives you spiritual strength, but also a positive attitude towards life. True friendship should be a source of motivation to encourage each other, forge ahead, and never give up.
Take Lu Xuanbai himself as an example, if it weren't for the company of Xiaohong, a "sworn enemy", he might have lost his way in his ordinary life. It was those childhood memories of fighting and making trouble, you and me, that made him understand the value of perseverance and hard work, so that he was able to get through the trough of life again and again, and finally incarnate into what he is today.
Therefore, when Xiaohong half-jokingly said, "Maybe there will be new development", Lu Xuanbai's heart was happy. The friendship of friends may be the bridge to love, and they have long had the basis of knowing each other. Let this marriage come to a natural end, and no matter what happens in the end, at least the process will be rich and wonderful.
More importantly, this encounter made Lu Xuanbai realize that all kinds of encounters in the past turned out to be an arrangement and gift of fate. They are like pearls, which brighten the necklace of each of our lives. Friendship, love, career, and family constitute eternal themes, but they are often overshadowed by the troubles of the world, making us drift away in the pursuit of fame and fortune.
And when you meet someone who makes you see the clouds, maybe God is reminding you to know how to look at and cherish your life in turn. Xiaohong's appearance is like giving Lu Xuanbai such an opportunity to regain the simple and precious friendship of the past.
As the so-called childhood acquaintance, teenagers always have a feeling in their hearts. The thin but beautiful past has unconsciously affected a person's character and outlook on life. And when the beautiful past and the future converge, it will surely hit a different kind of wonderful spark.
Faced with this encounter that makes people feel a little ridiculous but has expectations, Lu Xuanbai plans to let go of his prejudices and cherish his current fate. Perhaps this is a gift from heaven to him, so that he can take a breath, get out of the distractions, and re-examine the meaning of life.
After all, when a person is content with the status quo and gains fame, fortune and status, the easiest thing to fall into is numbness to life and abandonment of the spiritual world. To be able to reunite with a close friend and recall the original simple state of mind is undoubtedly a powerful awakening to the lost state of life.
The episode of this reunion may have made Lu Xuanbai feel a little embarrassed and passive for the time being, but it is already worth sincerely thanking for this opportunity for him to reflect on the preciousness of friendship and inject new vitality and motivation into his life.
At the end of the day, there's nothing like the timeless themes of friendship and love that awaken a sense of zest for life. They give us the courage and meaning to live, and they also teach us the wisdom of gratitude. In this society where you chase after me, we should learn to stop and precipitate, and think carefully about our original dreams and the meaning of life.
