Endless Battlefield: Starting from Night City to Create a Vest

Chapter 120: Only when you lose something will you cherish it.

"Wang Yan...it's okay. I just went for recovery training. I feel a little weak right now, but I'll be fine soon."

Wu Guang slumped on the sofa and forced a smile.

"Speaking of which, school is over?"

"Well, today is the last day, so school ends early."

Wang Yan nodded in response. After putting down his schoolbag, he went straight to Wu Guang, sat down, and looked at Wu Guang with curiosity.

Being stared at with such eyes, Wu Guang felt his anus tighten.

He forced a smile and asked, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I heard from my parents that you got into a car accident while trying to save someone and ended up being a vegetable."

"Yeah, that's right."

Wu Guang has nothing to be shy about.

"I saw on TikTok that people in a vegetative state wake up and feel like they just had a long dream. Are you one of them? Is being in a vegetative state like a soul traveling through time?"

Wang Yan asked frantically out of curiosity.

And Wu Guang had no choice but to respond one by one.

This question took more than an hour to discuss.

Wu Guang's answer is also more inclined towards storytelling.

He briefly narrated the story of the cyberpunk world.

Of course, a lot of artistic processing has been done.

Wang Yan was also very excited when he heard this. He also brought up the game Cyberpunk and said that the two worlds seemed to have similarities.

Wu Guang also nodded with a smile, after all, it is a derivative of this game and animation.

The reason they stopped chatting was not because they had no topics to talk about, but because Wu Liang and his wife had returned.

At the same time, Wu Liang also gave Wu Guang a mobile phone. Wu Guang took it and found that the changes in the mobile phone were actually not big, and there was no difference from 2020.

After turning on the phone, Wu Guang didn't care anymore. After all, he had already learned all the information in the past five years. The mobile phone was nothing more than an additional medium for the main body to obtain information from the outside world.

"And these clothes are all new."

Three sets of clothes.

Pajamas, summer clothes, and fall clothes.

Wu Guang took them one by one.

At the same time, he also felt warm in his heart, but for some reason he always remembered that there was a girl in Cyberpunk who also liked to buy him clothes.

For some reason, Wu Guang felt a soreness in the corners of his eyes.

Finally, Wu Guang couldn't hold back his tears.

There are some things that you don’t know how to cherish until you lose them.

Wu Guang's sudden burst into tears made Wu Liang and Su Qiaohui a little at a loss for a moment.

"Wu Guang..."

A hint of bitterness also appeared on Wu Liang's old face.

"It's okay. It's all over."

Fang Yan and Su Qiaohui watched from the side, looking at the father and son.

"Go, clean up your room. You can squeeze in with your big brother today."

Fang Yan was somewhat resistant, but eventually went back to his room to pack up.

After a brief burst of tears, Wu Guang adjusted his mentality. Wu Liang sat beside him and patted Wu Guang's thin shoulders. Su Qiaohui went to cook, but considering that Wu Guang had just woken up and could not eat greasy food, she cooked very light dishes, and the staple food was naturally porridge.

"I'm fine, Dad. By the way, I'll sleep on the sofa today. Don't let Wang Yan clean up. The kids are already big enough and need some private space."

"They are all children, why do they need private space? You can squeeze in with that child first. The day after tomorrow, the construction team will come and partition off a room. It will be right there." The one who answered him was his stepmother, Su Qiaohui.

She pointed toward the hall.

Wu Guang looked and saw that the apartment where Wu Liang's family lived was very large, and theoretically it could be turned into a four-bedroom apartment.

"Does the landlord agree?" Wu Guang asked curiously.

Wu Liang smiled and shook his head: "I bought this house with your stepmother, so we are the landlord."

Wu Guang was surprised, he still understood the basic housing prices. Although housing prices will gradually fall after the demographic dividend ends, it still depends on the situation. Housing prices in first-tier cities are still high, while housing prices in second- and third-tier cities will gradually return to a relatively normal stage.

But the price is still quite expensive.

"This must be more than two million, right?"

Wu Liang smiled and shook his head: "It's not that exaggerated. The current housing prices are not as high as before, and our house is a foreclosed house. Speaking of which..."

Wu Liang briefly talked about what had happened over the years.

Three years ago, when the epidemic broke out, many people stopped paying their mortgages, and house prices plummeted like an avalanche, especially in second- and third-tier cities, which experienced a hard landing.

It was also that year that Wu Guang and his wife encountered a financial crisis, which led to the current situation.

But it can also be said to be a case of breaking down and then building up.

Wu Liang was burdened with debt and decided to take one last gamble by starting a small business. Later he met Su Qiaohui. They were both frustrated people, and they soon felt a sense of sympathy for each other and eventually became a family.

It was like a change of luck. Although Wu Liang's small business was difficult, it was still well organized. Within three years, he completed the transformation from a dealer to a small factory owner.

The current result can be attributed to the bonus of online sales.

"I see... live streaming." Wu Guang nodded. He was naturally aware of the development of the Internet in the past five years. He was quite surprised. He didn't expect that his father was so up to date with the trend and caught up with the live streaming trend, and became rich overnight.

"Yes, live streaming. Come to think of it, you said before that you wanted to be a game anchor. Why don't you give it a try?" Wu Liang looked at his son with a smile.

If I had agreed with Wu Guang's idea back then, or even supported it, perhaps...this five-year gap would not have happened.

Wu Guang thought about it and thought that this was indeed possible, but he had already made plans for the future.

"I'd better go to your factory in a few days to take a look at live streaming and stuff. I haven't touched games for five years. Let's talk about it later." Wu Liang didn't say much.

Soon the family started eating.

But Fang Miaomiao did not come back.

"This damn girl." Su Qiaohui was talking on the phone with an ugly expression.

Soon Fang Miaomiao answered the phone.

However, after hearing the loud DJ music from the other end of the phone, Su Qiaohui's expression changed from ugly to angry.

"Fang Miaomiao, you just got into trouble and went to that kind of place again? Are you..."

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by the person on the other end of the phone.

"I know, I will definitely go home at night."

beep..

The call was hung up.

Su Qiaohui still had an angry expression on her face. Looking at the message that the call was hung up, Su Qiaohui took a deep breath and finally smiled bitterly and shook her head.

"I'm used to this, alas."

Wu Liang shook his head helplessly: "Let's eat, I'll pick her up later."

"I'm really troubling you."

"No way, Miaomiao is also my daughter."

"Husband..." Su Qiaohui looked at Wu Liang with watery eyes.

Wu Liang felt the same way when he looked at Su Qiaohui.

"Wife..."

Fang Yan rolled his eyes, and Wu Guang was speechless after being caught off guard by this dog food.

The two seemed to be aware of the presence of children.

He coughed twice quickly.

"Eat, eat." Wu Liang's old face blushed as he picked up some food for Wu Guang.

Wu Guang looked at the celery sticks on his porridge and was a little speechless. Now his stomach is weak and it is not suitable for him to eat crude fiber.

However, Wu Guang gave up explaining and started eating in silence.

It's okay to eat one or two.

However, in the end Wu Guang ate a full plate of food.

These were all dishes picked by stepmother Su Qiaohui.

Wu Guang held his stomach, speechless.

After dinner, Wu Liang drove out, apparently to look for Fang Miaomiao.

Wu Guang continued to lie on the sofa to digest his food, while Fang Yan went back to the room to play on the computer.

Su Qiaohui was cleaning up the dishes.

Wu Guang still spoke: "Um...Auntie..."

"Call me mom, we are a family."

"Um...Mom, talk to Dad. There's no need to renovate the house. When I recover and have the ability to make money, I'll move out."

"Why? Is it because of your home that makes you feel bad?" Su Qiaohui stopped what she was doing, with a conflicted expression.

Wu Guang shook his head: "No, after all, I am almost 30 years old, I can't stay at home all the time, right? And I moved out five years ago, so I might not be used to it for a while."

"Hey, there's nothing to get used to about it. You'll get used to it if you live here for a while." After hearing this, Su Qiaohui made a warm invitation.

However, Wu Guang shook his head and pointed to his back.

Su Qiaohui was about to say something, but suddenly she was stuck. She realized what Wu Guang was going to say. There were two children in the family, and the children's mouths were not like the two adults who knew the importance of the matter.

"That's true. Your father and I forgot about it." Su Qiaohui nodded heavily.

"So, Mom, I'll sleep on the sofa today."

"Well...that's right. By the way, can you take a shower?" Su Qiaohui asked curiously.

"Naturally."

"Is that so...but you should wait until you feel better before moving out. I'll talk to your dad. By the way...you can also live in the factory dormitory. We just rented an area near the factory for workers to use as dormitories. No, that won't work because the bathrooms are public..." Su Qiaohui was making her own plans.

Wu Guang simply didn't refute anything, and said that he would talk about it later. Besides, even if he went to the factory, he would not refuse, after all, the factory was an integral part of his plan.

Wu Guang looked at the time. It was already seven o'clock in the afternoon and the sun was setting. It wouldn't be long before they entered the Infinite Battlefield.

It's probably only about an hour.

At this moment, Su Qiaohui's phone rang.

"What? That girl... did you call the police? Okay... I'll go to the factory and find a few people."
