Chapter 13 Painter 1. The mysterious Suwei
Wu Yu has been feeling a mysterious shadow following him lately, and he suspects it is the ghost bride. But every time he turns around, he can't see anything. "Is it because I am too nervous?" Wu Yu muttered to himself.
After eight o'clock in the evening, Wu Yu came out of the old house and went to the old restaurant to have dinner.
The restaurant business is booming, and most of the guests who come to eat are from other places. "Guests from other places." Wu Yu suddenly remembered that he was from Guangzhou, but after living in the ancient house for a while, he felt that life in Wuzhen was very quiet. If he was not looking for the mystery of Su Wei's death, he would like to live in this quaint place.
While eating, Yunyun called and asked him if he had eaten. Wu Yu said he was eating. Yunyun didn't say anything and hung up. Wu Yu got angry for no reason: "This woman is really weird."
Yunyun's call made Wu Yu suddenly lose interest, and the delicious meal seemed like chewing wax. So he put down his bowl and chopsticks, paid the bill, turned and walked towards the street, intending to find a place to kill time and go back after Yunyun and Xinluo returned to the old house.
Wu Yu stood at the crossroads, somewhat hesitant, not knowing where to go. The phone suddenly rang again, and he paused, thinking it was Yunyun calling, frowning and not wanting to answer it. But the person on the other end of the phone didn't know, and continued to ring. Wu Yu was so angry that he took out his phone, and it was Su Wei calling. Wu Yu was very confused: "Why is he calling at this time?" After thinking about it, he answered it.
"Wu Yu?" The voice on the other end was clear.
"Um."
"Where are you now?"
Wu Yu told him the location, and Su Wei asked him to go to Wujiang Bar immediately, saying that they had something to discuss. Wu Yu agreed, asked for the address, hung up the phone, and walked quickly to the riverside.
Wujiang Bar is built by the river. Its neon lights flicker in the night, which is quite dazzling in the quaint Wuzhen, and seems a bit out of place.
Wu Yu hesitated outside the door for a while, then walked in.
The bar was very quiet, much quieter than Wu Yu had imagined.
The bar was filled with a misty atmosphere and there were not many customers. Wu Yu soon saw Su Wei sitting in a private seat.
Su Wei smiled and waved to him. Wu Yu walked over and sat down opposite him.
Su Wei poured a glass of wine for Wu Yu, then raised the glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Wu Yu asked , "Why are you interested in coming here today?"
Su Wei smiled and said, "I plan to go back to Guangzhou in a few days, so I want to talk to you."
"What's the matter?"
"I'll be frank. I know the real reason why you came to Wuzhen."
After hearing this, Wu Yu looked at him in surprise.
"You don't have to be surprised. I remember when you first met me, I thought your expression was strange. Later, I learned from Niao Niao that you came here to find out the truth about Su Wei's death."
Wu Yu nodded.
"Do you think there's something special about me that attracts you?"
"When I first saw you, I thought it was Su Wei. You really look very similar to him." Wu Yu thought about it and said very affirmatively.
"Really?" Su Wei smiled and asked back.
"Really, they are almost the same person." Wu Yu was very surprised when he thought of their appearance.
"There are so many strange things in this world. Two unrelated people can actually look so similar."
"Yes, and their names are homophones, one is 'Su Wei' and the other is 'Su Wei'. If you don't listen carefully, you can't tell them apart..."
Su Wei remained silent and did not respond , looking very troubled. He poured a glass of wine for himself and Wu Yu, and they drank it in one gulp.
Wu Yu suddenly felt that he came to the ancient town for another purpose, but he couldn't guess what it was.
"Are you really planning to leave Wuzhen?"
"Um."
"Will you give up on Niaoniao? You have to know that it will be hard to meet a girl like Niaoniao again in the future."
Su Wei nodded, agreeing with Wu Yu's words.
While Su Wei was silent, Wu Yu's cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Yunyun calling, so he picked up the phone.
Yunyun said she would be back later. Wu Yu said nothing but "hmm".
Su Wei suddenly became interested and said, "It's rare for us to meet each other, how about getting drunk tonight?"
Wu Yu said without hesitation: "Come on!" and raised his glass.
