i was my mistake

"Ye Chen, you kid, open the door!"

"Wan Qing, open the door quickly!!"

The two called each other's name.

And chaos, like a thick fog, approached them quietly...

……

71. Follow your heart

(One)

"My head hurts..." Wan Qing covered her head and sat up from the bed in a daze.

"Do you remember what happened after reaching the top of the mountain yesterday?" Ye Chen turned over on the bed and buried his face in the pillow.

"I don't remember what happened at all."

"Then...do you still want to go today?"

"Go to hell..." Although the memory of reaching the top of the mountain is gone, the memory of climbing the mountain is still there, sitting so far every day and climbing the mountain in rainy days, and getting wet all over, Wan Qing is not that interested Ask for trouble.

The point is that this mountain climbing can't strengthen your body. After all, every time you will return to the state at the beginning of the day, it means that you are only mentally tortured, but your body has not received any exercise.

"Sleep! Let Dad ask for sick leave for us later!"

Asking for sick leave has been done countless times, and Ye Chen and Wan Qing are already used to it.

Although he doesn't have the memory in the cycle time every time he talks to his father, he will easily agree every time, so when he is asked to take sick leave, there will be no psychological burden at all.

……

(two)

When the two woke up, it was already noon.

The rain is a little less at this moment, but the fog is still thick.

Wan Qing went out for a leisurely stroll, went to the bakery to buy some expensive pastries, and bought a lottery ticket by the way.

After such a long time, she has already memorized the lottery numbers that can redeem tens of thousands of dollars for the "big prize".

——As long as you don't buy the jackpot, the lottery numbers will not change every night.

In fact, you can't exchange money on the same day you bought it, it just became a habit, and it's just fun.

Going back to the house through the thick fog, she originally wanted to go to Zhao Jinyu's room to keep warm, but Wan Qing felt in her pocket, but there was no key, and then remembered that she hadn't asked her to get the key today.

When I knocked on the door in the morning, I just said a few perfunctory words, and didn't even open the door...

Saying the same few words back and forth so many times will get tiresome for everyone.

"Hey, it's cold outside."

"Really...uh, what did you buy?"

"All kinds of cakes and breads, and some exquisite snacks, tsk tsk."

"How much did it cost?"

"More than 400."

Ye Chen grinned, if she didn't know that the money would return to the original amount tomorrow, she would definitely feel distressed for a long time.

Wan Qing took out two game consoles from the plastic bag and threw them on the bed, then quickly got back under the covers: "I bought something fun to pass the time."

"what?"

"Game console, it's Tetris." Wan Qing muttered as she unpacked it, "I bought an expensive one specially, and I can change the game by replacing the screen. There are Tetris, Sokoban and fighter jets, um, Pretty good."

"What a luxury."

"If you don't play, you don't play for nothing. I originally wanted to buy a GBA game console."

"what is that?"

"It's a colorful game console—but I guess it hasn't been released yet. I haven't found any for sale after searching for a long time. The best game console is this Tetris machine, and it has a backlight!"

The screen of the game console is black and white. The so-called backlight is not the light of the mobile phone screen later. It is really just a few light bulbs installed behind it to illuminate the screen.

Kind of like the backlight of a pager.

It will still be difficult to see clearly in a too dark environment, it can only be said that it is better than nothing.

"What can you play?"

"There are so many things you can play. The GBA era is the era that pays the most attention to gameplay - after all, there is nothing to talk about on the screen..." Wan Qing muttered softly, "But after playing that, it will be enough to save the game again after reincarnation. It's gone, so it's meaningless to think about it, it's not as good as this kind of game console, you can play at any time and end at any time, and there is no need to pay attention to saving files."

"Then why don't we go to the game hall to play? The screen is still big and the colors are still bright - I want to play that, a racing game, for a day!" Ye Chen's eyes lit up, and he was suddenly a little excited, "Since you don't care about flowers How much money, then you can play like that!"

"Let's talk about it next time today." Wan Qing retracted half of her small face into the blanket, "It's too warm in the blanket, I'm too lazy to crawl out again..."

In this era with little entertainment, even such a simple three games can make people want to play.

Before I knew it, the whole day passed in bed.

The two of them didn't get up to cook, and they just ate pastries if they wanted to eat. It didn't matter if the room was full of crumbs, anyway, everything would automatically recover after twelve o'clock—there was no need to clean the bathroom.

In fact, after getting used to it, this kind of life is not bad, but whenever I think about the 'future', there is a deep sense of loss and fear.

If one day does not recycle, but does not enter the next day, will you die without knowing it?

Not even a chance to feel sorry for myself.

……

(three)

It's a new 'today' again.

Two o'clock in the morning is the earliest time each 'today' can wake up.

Wan Qing tried, but couldn't do it even if she woke up a second earlier.

This is already an unknown number of 'todays'.

Maybe it's been half a year, or maybe it's been more than half a year?

Most of the basic knowledge has already been mastered. If you take the exam again, you may be able to pass every one.

——Don’t underestimate this improvement.

If you can pass every one, it means that the chances of being admitted to the undergraduate course are much higher.

However, when learning this kind of thing, when entering the bottleneck period where it is difficult to improve, you will unconsciously slack off, let alone have such ample time to waste casually.

So the two basically changed from taking a day off to study hard to studying hard once every few days-this is to avoid returning all the things they have learned.

The evening sun is not too sleepy today.

Maybe it's because I've basically been lying at home sleeping for the past two days.

She got out of the warm blanket, and her body was wrapped in the cold air.

Putting on a sweater to wash up, and then putting on a warm coat, she was about to go out when Ye Chen's ravings came from the bed.

"Uhm... are you going to school today..."

"It's early."

"I haven't been there several times, shall I go today?"

"Well, but it's only two o'clock."

"Oh—then what are you doing?"

"Go to Dad's place to chat and have a late-night snack. Are you hungry?"

"I'm not hungry... But, let's go with you." Ye Chen muttered, and also got up from the bed, "I seem to have been there once."

"It seems to be, do you want to try the morning wine?"

"Then you don't need to drink...you think it's you when you drink just after waking up."

"Tch, you know what a fart, you will be very warm after drinking it."

"I don't want to be in a daze for a long time." She yawned and walked into the bathroom, washed up seriously, combed her hair casually, and went out with Wan Qing.

But when she was in the elevator, she was already awake a lot, and she took a picture of herself in the elevator mirror as if worried, and re-cut her hair with her hands, and straightened the crooked hairpin by the way.

"Hey, it's so early today." The ignorant father still greeted enthusiastically, and stuffed back the cigarette he had just taken out of the cigarette case, "Why, can't sleep and get up for supper?"

"Well, Dad, lean meatballs." Wan Qing sat down at the folding table very naturally, "I want a small glass... yellow bar."

"Haha, why do you suddenly want to drink some wine?"

"Warm up your body."

"Heat it up for you, and add another egg?"

"Okay, Chen'er, do you want it?" Wan Qing tilted her head and looked at Ye Chen.

"Uh...Try it?" Probably because Ye Chen has never drank this kind of warm wine, so he is somewhat interested.

"Okay, go back to sleep after eating, or you will be sleepy when you go to school."

"I don't think I'll be in the mood to sleep after eating." Wan Qing stretched her waist, "Eat slowly, and I'll go to school with Jinyu after eating around four o'clock."

"That's okay, once in a while, it's a new experience."

Ye Chen laughed dryly, that is to say, his father didn't remember what happened in this cycle of days, otherwise he would never have said the three words 'new experience'.

While chatting, a man with a lot of white hair walked out of the thick and intractable mist. He looked about 50 years old, and his clothes were dirty, as if they hadn't been washed for many days.

Both Wan Qing and Ye Chen recognize him - he is the master who will repair Zhao Jinyu's car.

Even though he didn't have any impression of the two of them at all, when they saw her, they still had the feeling of seeing an acquaintance.

"Boss, do you have something warm to eat?"

"Yes, it's all hot, with embedded cakes, lean meatballs, or a bowl of rice wine with eggs."

The man touched his pocket, as if he was secretly counting how much money he had left. He coughed and spit on the ground next to him: "Let's have a cake... just a vegetarian one, and warm a bowl Rice wine, is it more expensive to add eggs?"

"Yes."

"Then... just heat it up, no eggs."

"Okay, do you want to sit here and eat?"

"Correct."

"Sit down first, I'll be yours right away."

"Okay, it's really cold here."

"It's warmer in the alley." Father pointed to the folding table in the alley.

"Oh, it's warmer—" He sat down, as if he was talking to himself, or chatting with Ye Youliang, "I wanted to have breakfast in the morning, but I couldn't stay up in the middle of the night, or Come and eat, or it's too cold."

"What's wrong, didn't you eat dinner last night?"

"I didn't eat anything all day yesterday."

"Are you busy with work?"

"Hey, what kind of work is there? I just set up a stall to help people fix things. I can't make much money a day. I repaired a few cars yesterday and didn't make a few cents. I just wanted to save money and stopped eating."

"Oh...you still have to eat."

"That can't be helped. You have to have money. I'm old. I'm young. I'm almost fifty. I'm old. I haven't retired yet. It's hard to find a job. There are so many young people who don't have a job. Yes, not to mention me..."

"Master, are you also a laid-off worker?"

In City H, master is a kind of respectful title, generally referring to those who have mastered technology and look older.

"That's right... I came from the north and said that there are more opportunities in the south. Oh, what about you? You're also laid off?"

"Yes, I was laid off. I was laid off from the local factory."

"The factories in the south also laid off a lot of people... Sigh."

"Yeah, alas."
