depicting time

Opening the curtains, it can be seen that the window is covered with fog, and the things outside are also blurred, and only a little white can be vaguely seen, which is the trace left by the snow that fell all night.

Xu Yan stayed in front of the window for a long time, his eyes reflected the scenery outside the window, but his heart was blank.

The living room was still very messy, which was caused by the books he read here last night. The blankets were scattered on the floor, and several books were half-seen and thrown on the coffee table.

Xu Yan also ate a lot of snacks yesterday, most of them were left halfway open. If he was in a worse mood, he might buy some wine to get rid of his worries.

Halfway through packing, the phone rang, and he leaned weakly on the sofa to answer it.

"Hey, Mom, what's the matter?"

"Xiaoyan, how was the blind date yesterday?"

He replied directly, "No, I don't like it."

"You don't like it? Li Shu came to tell me that he is very interesting to you."

"Hmm..." Xu Yan was not interested in his answer.

Just chatting with Li Shu for 10 minutes, Xu Yan saw through his true nature.Arrogant, greedy and lustful.

What Li Shu cared about right now was just his face.

Being missed by such a person will only make Xu Yan feel uncomfortable. "I won't contact him in the future." He sighed softly and said, "Mom, don't help me on blind dates anymore, I'm tired."

Li Shu was not the first blind date he met. With his natural observation skills, Xu Yan could always see through the nature of the person opposite him in an instant.

The people before were just flawed, dissatisfied but it didn't affect getting along with each other.And Li Shu made him completely lose his expectations for the future blind date, anyway, they are almost the same...

Even though he would never meet love in his life, he didn't want to make peace with such a person.

Hearing Xu Yan say that she was tired, Zhang Juanning knew that yesterday's experience was not good, she said, "Okay, mother will not force you to do your own affairs."

"Yes." His mother's understanding was the greatest comfort he had received since yesterday.

But she then sighed and said, "Mom asked you to go on a blind date just because she was worried about you. My marriage with your dad is not good. Mom is worried that it will affect your view of marriage. Xiaoyan, I hope you still have expectations for love .”

"Ah."

Xu Yan responded and stopped talking. In recent years, Zhang Juanning became more and more afraid of his son's sudden silence.Because she was worried that her lie might be seen through.

She is right to be concerned.

Although Zhang Juanning's words were so beautiful and touching, Xu Yan still knew her true thoughts. She just wanted to use warm care to make up for the failed marriage and the children who were harmed by this marriage.

Guilt, on the contrary, is more than love.

Xu Yan kept silent, so Zhang Juanning ended the chat by himself and said, "Have a good rest this weekend."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Xu Yan continued to lean on the sofa for a while.Seeing the roses in the vase, just like his mood at the moment, with his head bowed and withered.

After changing out of his pajamas and tidying himself up, the man in the mirror returned to his former brightness, and the tear mole dotted under his right eye no longer added to his melancholy look.

Withered roses are thrown into the trash, and empty vases wait for fresh roses to arrive again.

The flower shop is located in a bustling street, the business is very good, but because of the cold weather had to close the door.

Xu Yan was very careful when he pushed the door open, not to let too much cold wind into the house, so as not to disturb the flowers in the greenhouse.

Knowing that he only bought roses, the boss said, "It's cold, and there are not many roses in the store."

The house was full of flowers, and the fragrance filled the air. Being in such an environment made him feel better, and said, "It's okay, it will be spring soon."

While his eyes flicked slowly over the flowers in the house, he paid attention to the news playing on the boss's cell phone.

"On December 12th, another person who disappeared for many years appeared on the subway in District A. According to interviews with reporters, the person who came back this time was a man who lived in Qiyun, District A 14 years ago. He married his wife for three years and had children. I have a pair of children. Now that I am back, my wife has been supporting the family alone for ten years, and the pair of children have grown up. In the past 10 years, I missed too much company. Things are changing, and it is happening in reality.

The man, like those who came back in the past, forgot what he had experienced when he was trapped in time, and could only feel that he was stagnant in place.When other people told him that he had disappeared for 10 years, the man seemed very surprised. He thought he had an inexplicable dream, but he did not expect that he had disappeared for so long.From September 9 ten years ago to today, countless people are still waiting for their relatives and friends to return. We still don’t know what kind of people are saving them back. Some people speculate that it is gods, because they never show up.And whoever helped, we are grateful to them.Thank you for their dedication to reuniting so many separated families..."

Those who are stuck in time... Xu Yan doesn't have much memory of the disaster ten years ago.Their family and the people they know around them are the lucky ones who came out of time in the blink of an eye.

For them, it was just a short dream.But some people are still trapped in the dream.

At the moment when time is still, everything that the eyes can see is the only picture that can be seen in the future.Xu Yan imagined that he was frozen in place at this moment, and could only see the rose in front of him forever. No matter how beautiful the red color of the rose was, it could not save the loneliness in his heart.

Then what kind of loneliness will the person trapped inside at this moment be?

……

Against the background of reverie in my mind, the things in front of me suddenly become vivid, and I want to cherish this ordinary everything even more.

Therefore, he selected the reddest roses, which are difficult to cultivate even in warm spring days.He was holding a bouquet of winter roses, and in the eyes of the female boss, he felt that people were more beautiful than these flowers.

Xu Yan was not in a hurry to leave, taking advantage of the lack of people in the shop, he continued to visit this flower shop.There are many potted flowers on the shelf, and the employees are watering the flowers, watching the water drops fall on the rows of flowers...

When he looked down at the rose in his hand again, he saw drops of water on the petals.

Like the dew in the morning, it condenses but does not disperse.

In the blink of an eye, he saw this little drop of water leaving the petal with his own eyes... Following the direction in which it flew away, Xu Yan saw the tiny light shrouding the drop of water.

In this bright room, with such a small light, it is easy to think that you are being blinded.

Xu Yan couldn't help rubbing his eyes, then raised his head to confirm that it was still there.

It was floating in the air, no longer looking for a landing point, seeing him floating outside the house, Xu Yan hurriedly chased him out.

It was snowing outside again, and the snowflakes floating all over the sky made it difficult for Xu Yan to find it. The 'water drop' was like a lost person, bumping around in this street, and sometimes he couldn't find it. Xu Yan turned around but found it. Find it right behind you.

Slowly left the busy street and entered a quieter neighborhood, he followed all the way, but lost at a corner.

The rose in his hand was already covered with a layer of snow, but Xu Yan was unwilling to leave.He continued to walk forward, looking for the faint light.

The snow fell harder and harder, a black car parked on the side of the road with half of its body covered in snow, Xu Yan saw a man get off the car, and what stopped him was the tiny light behind the man.

It seemed to have found its owner and stopped beside him.

Xu Yan couldn't help but pay attention to this friend who appeared suddenly. When the car door closed, he gradually turned around so that Xu Yan could see his face clearly.

He stood tall and straight, even though he was surrounded by cold wind and heavy snow, he still stood upright.Looking at him from a distance, his eyes seemed a little cold, and he was examining Xu Yan mercilessly.

Xu Yan couldn't avoid such scrutiny.

The cold wind messed up the broken hair on his forehead and the coat on his body. He stood in place, motionless, and he didn't need to make any other movements. His delicate and tough facial features were enough to catch the eye...

Attracting Xu Yan, she wanted to get closer to him.

Probably because he has seen too much of his soft and beautiful appearance, Xu Yan naturally has a good impression of people with heroic appearance.

And the person in front of him fit all of Xu Yan's imagination of being handsome.

Suddenly, his eyes were no longer cold, and he took the initiative to take off his serious coat. In his eyes, the person holding a rose in his hand is also a beautiful scenery under the heavy snow.

The two communicated silently for a long time, and Xu Yan noticed that he was still standing there after examining himself, as if waiting for him to pass by.

So he boldly approached the people beside the car, and the 'water drop' flew between the two of them with a flash of light, and Xu Yan remembered the reason why he chased here.

The stranger suddenly said after Xu Yan approached, "If you are curious about it, you can add a WeChat to chat in detail."

'Little Water Drop' seemed to have heard his words, and kept circling around the man.

Xu Yan raised his head in a daze. It's not that he hasn't been asked for WeChat...but he hasn't been asked for WeChat by such a handsome person.

Moreover, his tone was quite serious, not like striking up a conversation with a joke.

Xu Yan pretended to be calm and took out the phone in his pocket, but he didn't know that the hand holding Rose was shaking all the time, and asked, "...Do you scan me, or should I scan you?"

If possible, Xu Yan hoped that the first sentence he said could be more romantic and more in line with the current atmosphere, but the reality can't be as he wished...

He smiled. In Xu Yan's eyes, even a simple smile felt very intoxicating.When he also took out his phone, Xu Yan couldn't wait to open his own QR code, "Come and scan me."

This was an initiative he had hardly used before, and the man cooperated very well, and soon added WeChat.

Then, he handed over a business card and introduced himself, "Hi, my name is Song Ting, nice to meet you."

The information on the business card reads, President of Xinghai Technology Co., Ltd.I thought he was a soldier, after all his temperament fits well...

After seeing the information clearly, Xu Yan couldn't help being taken aback, a little surprised.

When Xu Yan was in a trance, his eyes fell on the rose in Xu Yan's hand, and he praised without warning, "It's beautiful."

When his eyes moved up, Xu Yan had the illusion that he was just praising himself...

The brief eye contact made Xu Yan's heart beat faster and faster.

The man smiled again, and then said goodbye. When he returned to the car, the little 'drops' were still around his side, giving his initial words more credibility.

The vehicle left long wheel marks in the snow, and then gradually drifted away.

Fresh roses in vases punctuate a drab living room.After Xu Yan endured and struggled for a long time, he clicked on the stranger's circle of friends.

His wechat nickname is very simple, only one word 'ting', and when he clicked on his circle of friends, Xu Yan found that the place is also very clean.

He only reposted some news, did not disclose any personal information, let alone any photos.

After calming down, Xu Yan felt that the encounter during the day was too dreamy, and he began to worry that this is the latest way of deception...

The 'liar' is baiting him with his good looks and mystique.

He searched 'Xinghai Technology Co., Ltd.' on the Internet, which proved that Song Ting's identity as the president was not fabricated. Only in this way, he gradually let go of his doubts.

Xu Yan didn't take the initiative to contact him. Since the other party asked to add WeChat, he would definitely show his purpose.

From early morning until late at night, at midnight, the stranger sent a message.

The cell phone on the coffee table just rang, and the person who was reading quietly on the sofa immediately leaned forward and touched his cell phone.

【WeChat】

Ting: Hello.

Ting: (picture)

Ting: Can you tell me what you see in this picture?

Xu Yan stared at the picture he sent for a long time, and carefully confirmed the answer before replying.

Makes sense: saw a child.

Perhaps because of Song Ting's status as the president, Xu Yan felt that this picture was part of the interview.

And what is he interviewing for?

Not long after the message was sent, the other party replied with a voice call.

Xu Yan picked it up inexplicably flustered, "...Hello."

His deep voice sounded, it seemed a little different from what he heard during the day, and it was a little tired.

"Hello, I'm Song Ting. It's inconvenient to record what I said next, so I changed the method of voice communication."

He spoke so carefully, as if they were having a very confidential conversation.

Xu Yan was puzzled and guarded, but he didn't ask any more questions, and calmly replied, "Yes."

Song Ting continued, "I'm here to answer the question from this morning. I wonder if you're still curious about it?"

Xu Yan asked, "What is that?"

He replied, "What you're seeing is fragments of spacetime."

"Shards of time and space?" Xu Yan had heard of this name in the news a long time ago.Experts who study parallel time and space tell people that the disappearing people are not non-existent, but trapped in space-time fragments, so they are called people trapped in time.He was surprised, "There is life in such a small thing?"

"Yes, after parting today, we rescued a life inside." He turned to say, "Xu Yan, you have the ability to restore time and space, and we need your participation."

"I..." This invitation was too sudden, or everything that happened today was a bit sudden,

Strange 'drops of water' guided him to wander around in the street, and then a man who fit his aesthetics appeared inexplicably. In this conversation tonight, every word he said had a sense of secrecy.

Xu Yan endured all this unpreparedly, so he couldn't help but wonder at this moment, "I have such ability?"

Song Ting said affirmatively, "Yes. I will give you a time to choose, and I will reply within two days."

He finished expressing his meaning concisely, and then hung up the phone on the grounds that he would not bother.

But it made Xu Yan completely insomnia that night.

The two days passed quickly, and Song Ting kept in touch with Xu Yan. He did not mention the specific work of the space-time restorer in detail, but kept emphasizing the danger of this work.

He said that if you choose to become a space-time restorer, you should not hesitate, let alone regret it, and be ready to sacrifice your life for the people at any time.

……

Driven by various factors, Xu Yan came to the final answer, "I am willing to join."
