Thirty-Seven, One Mystery After Another (2)

  "Mu Xian, aren't you going to be a screenwriter? You need to know about discos, bars, branded cosmetics, and branded clothing. And you also need to know some people from all walks of life," said Ouyang Xiao Xiao with a smile. "Hmm, you've already bravely taken the first step by calling me and getting to know me. Don't back down next."

  I smiled, "I've only been in contact with you for an afternoon, and I feel that the mystery surrounding you is really deep. Now, my curiosity has not only not decreased, but has become even heavier."

  "Can curiosity and freshness be equated?" asked Ouyang Xiaoxiao.

  "I don't know," I didn't understand what Ouyang Xiaoxiao meant anymore.

  "Perhaps, one day, you'll unravel all the mysteries and you might be surprised or disappointed. Sometimes, people still need a little mystery," Ouyang Xiao Xiao sighed softly.

  "What does it mean?" I asked.

  "Hmm, maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I stubbornly think it's right. Maybe one day later, I'll have to pay a high price for this," Ouyang Xiaoxiao said with a bitter smile.

  Under the dim light of the roadside lamp, I saw Ouyang Xiaoxiao's face, which looked very desolate.

  I wanted to say something, but it was as if there were fish bones stuck in my throat, and I could only look away from her, gazing at the darkening twilight outside the car window.

  The two of us stopped talking.

  Taxis are speeding down the road.

  I stared blankly out of the car window.

  I wonder about the story behind Ouyang Xiaoxiao's back.

  "Perhaps I'm doing something wrong and maybe someday I'll pay a high price for it."

  What is this wrong thing she's doing?

  What kind of girl is she?

  The taxi passed through one traffic light after another and turned left and right at each intersection.

  In a place of flashing neon lights, it came to an abrupt end.

  I lifted my head and saw in the distance a neon sign with five big characters - Shunyuan Department Store.

  "We're here," said the driver.

  It wasn't until then that I and Ouyang Xiao Xiao came back to our senses.

  I took a look at the meter and it showed 32 yuan.

  Ouyang Xiaoxiao paid the fare and we got off the bus together.

  "Let's go," said Ouyang Xiaoxiao.

  I nodded and then walked with Ouyang Xiao towards Shunyuan Department Store.
