Memoirs of a Mortal

First Date

This man in front of me is the first person who said he would protect me when I came into society.After he washed my hair, he told me he was going back to his room to change his clothes.I nodded and said "I understand!" I just wanted to take a shower and change into some clean clothes.We agreed to meet at the front desk lounge on the first floor later.

After taking a shower, I changed into my usual casual clothes.The hair is simply tied into a ball shape with a rubber band，Sitting quietly on the sofa in the lounge on the first floor，Looking at the people coming and going in the hall, my stomach, which had just vomited, began to send signals.I didn't eat anything from filming in the morning to the afternoon.

"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Dai Enze appeared in front of me wearing a black T-shirt, jeans, and a pair of ordinary canvas shoes."I'll take you for a walk down the mountain!" He stretched out a hand to me and pulled me up from the sofa.

"Go down the mountain? Can I finish my meal first? How are we going down the mountain? The crew's cars are all at the filming location..." I looked at him.

"Don't worry about that, just follow me! After we get down the mountain, I'll take you to eat something delicious!" He took my hand and walked towards the parking lot.As soon as I stood at the door leading to the hotel parking lot, a black Mercedes van had already parked there.His agent also got down from the driving seat, handed him the car keys, said "Be careful" and left.

"You're not bringing your two followers with you?" I asked curiously.

"No need!" He answered simply and motioned for me to get in the car.I got in the car obediently and sat in the passenger seat. He reached out and helped me fasten my seat belt.

The fiery red sunset in the sky, accompanied by green plants, the scenery in the mountains in the evening is like a natural ink painting.Open the car window and feel the gentle evening breeze. It feels really comfortable.When the car reaches the foot of the mountain and passes through the gate of an ancient building, it means we have officially gone down the mountain.

There are cars coming and going on the road, and the houses on the roadside are antique buildings with blue bricks and white walls.After a while, the car stopped at a parking lot at the entrance of a commercial area."Let's go!" He put on a black mask and opened the car door.That's right, those celebrities and singers on TV always wear hats, glasses and black masks when they go out, for fear that others will recognize them.

He walked in front and I followed behind him, looking at his back."How about this? I'll buy you one to play with." He suddenly turned around and pointed at a vendor who was selling a bunch of balloons. The balloons were transparent and had a rose in the middle.

“I don’t want it!” I replied

"Isn't it pretty? The flowers in the middle come in several colors!" He raised his eyebrows."How much is it, boss?"He walked to the stall himself，In the blink of an eye, he picked up a balloon with a light pink rose in the middle and stuffed it into my hand."You can play with it! I see others have it!""Thank you!" I said in a very low voice, feeling my face getting hot

"There are fun places here! I'll take you to eat something delicious first!"He didn't shy away from it, he just took my arm and started walking"Why did you keep walking behind me just now?"

"Because I don't want others to misunderstand me!"I took a look at his profile, he looked kind of cool with a mask on.

He didn't say anything, just pulled me along the street，This is an antique commercial pedestrian street located in the city, with various local small shops on both sides.After walking for about 5 minutes, he stopped and I bumped into him without noticing.I quickly said "I'm sorry!"

"This is it! Let's go!"He took me and walked inside. This is an ancient alley.After walking about 100 meters, we came to a three-story building. Two waiters dressed in ancient costumes stood at the door."Mr. Dai? Please come upstairs!" They made a welcoming gesture and spoke in a very gentle voice.

Under their guidance, we came to a private room at the corner of the second floor.Through the window, there is a river outside. The clear river water reflects the shadows of the ancient buildings on the opposite bank. There are also some lotus-shaped lanterns floating on the river.In the private room, there is a rectangular old-fashioned wooden table for four, with a double wooden sofa facing each other, and a bright red cushion.

"Do you like ancient architecture?" He sat opposite me and handed me a cup of freshly poured tea.“My hometown is full of buildings like this. I will take you there next time.”

"I'll go "After dinner, let's go for a stroll on the street! I haven't been to this ancient street for a long time!" He took my cup and poured me another cup of tea.if I have the chance!" I took a sip of the tea, it smelled delicious, but I didn't know the name."Are you afraid of me?"

"A little bit!" I sat down and looked at him.

"Why?"

"You are a singer! I am a poor student!" I said

He stared at me, "I'm just like you! I'm an ordinary person, but I'm a little luckier! I was discovered by a record company!""Don't be afraid of me, or think that you and I are not from the same world! We are the same. I said I would help you finish your studies, and I also want to keep you by my side in the future. You don't need to come to a complicated place like the entertainment industry!"

"Stay by your side? What can I do? Your assistant? I don't know anything." I asked back"Help me, how?"When I was 14, society was already unfair to me. How can you help me?

"I helped you finish your studies and kept you here, not to make you my assistant! I wanted to protect you, not to make you my sister!" He crossed his hands and pounded on the table.

"What then? Be your lover? A famous singer like you should have no shortage of women!"I continued to ask

"I asked you out today because I wanted to tell you that with me here, what happened to you on the set this morning will never happen again. I'm not what you think. I don't have any women around me. I have an ex-girlfriend who left me because she despised me for being poor before I became famous! That's it!"He sounded a little excited."No matter what you are like now or in the future, I will always be with you!"

"Will you really stay with me forever? You fly all over the country every day, how can you have time to be with me?" I retorted

"Yes, I'm busy! But I will accompany you after I finish my work every day, if you are on break! I mean, if your school is on vacation, I can take you with me anywhere! Just give me a chance, it only takes a little time for you to understand me!"His eyes were shining, and I was a little dazed

The waiters began to bring food to the table.IAfter eating and drinking, I followed him out of the restaurant. He walked in front and I walked behind. looked at the 7 or 8 dishes in front of me and said, "Let's finish eating first, then we'll talk about it!" I was really hungry.He nodded and waited until the waiter left before taking off his mask.Keep putting it in my bowl.I don't know why he ordered so many dishes for two people.

"Will you be nice to me only in the future?" I stopped

"Yes! You are my family besides me!" He turned around and walked in front of me, very close to me

"So is today our first date?" I blushed.

"If you want, of course you can! But I will give you better things in the future!" Although he was wearing a mask, his eyes were narrowed into a slit at the time, and he looked a little happy. Of course, I was happy too.After all, my first love was with a singer. I never thought about what would happen in the future, but I still remember his words, "I will always be with you!"
