Xu Jiamu pretended like he hadn't heard anything and continued to sing. "Later, in my tears, I finally understood, some people, once you miss them, they're gone..."
Then, he couldn't continue singing.
Xu Jiamu felt like something was stuck in his throat. He couldn't move it up or down, and even breathing became a little difficult.
"Later" was still playing in the background. The original singer wasn't completely muffled, so his voice could be heard faintly.
"Back then, why was love so simple? And why did people have to hurt their loved ones when they were young..."
"Eh, why aren't you singing anymore?" Zhao Meng had a little too much to drink, so she asked in a daze. Then she stood up, raised the bottle to her lips, and used it as a microphone. She closed her eyes, and followed the background music. She passionately sang the following lyrics. "In this similar night, were you the same, quietly regretting and sad..."
Perhaps they were influenced by Zhao Meng, because the others started to sing along. "If we weren't so stubborn back then, then we wouldn't be so regretful now..."
When Xu Jiamu heard the lyrics, it was like he was electrocuted. His hands suddenly tightened around the microphone in his hands.
"How do you remember me, with a smile, or with silence? All these years, was there anyone who could make you feel less lonely..."
Xu Jiamu took two steps back, and gently placed the microphone on the karaoke counter. Then, he walked towards the door of the private room.
"Later, I finally learned how to love, but it was a pity that you were already far away, disappearing into the sea of people. Later, in my tears, I finally understood, that once you miss someone, you'll never..."
Xu Jiamu gently closed the door, and faintly heard a mixed male and female voice saying, "Never to be repeated, there's a boy who loves that girl."
When Xu Jiamu came out of the Golden Lounge, he realized it was snowing again. Large flakes of snow fluttered down.
It was already close to ten at night, but because it was Christmas, the streets were still bustling with activity. Every now and then, there would be fireworks exploding in the sky.
Xu Jiamu stood at the side of the street in front of the Golden Lounge, suddenly not knowing where to go. He raised his head to look at the falling snow, and stood there for a while. Then, he walked towards the parking lot about two hundred meters away.
On the way, he passed by a shopping mall. The cinema on the first floor was still open. From the big screen, he could see that Huan Ying Entertainment had specially produced a new film for this Christmas. From the poster, he could see that the cast of stars was very strong, and they were all familiar faces.
He remembered that many years ago, he had also watched a midnight movie with Song Xiangsi on Christmas. At that time, she hadn't entered the entertainment industry yet. She always had a clean and fair face, and when she smiled, her eyes were like crescent moons.
That day, there were a lot of people. Just like today, it was snowing heavily. When the movie ended, there were couples holding hands everywhere. She was the only one walking side by side with him. When they were crossing the road, a car drove over. He reached out and pulled her hand. Then, he didn't let go of her hand, and she didn't avoid it either.
After a long while, Xu Jiamu finally shifted his gaze away from the movie poster. Then, he lowered his head and looked at his palm.
He was clearly holding her hand. Why did they separate after holding for a while?
