Beauty across the cloud

=========================

Jin Lan walked out of the coffee shop alone, just as he opened the door, a gust of cold wind took the opportunity to enter.The layer of sweat on his back had dried up by now, but he still couldn't help shivering when the wind passed by.Jin Lan zipped up his jacket.

He stood under a street lamp by the side of the road, and as far as he could see, except for the slightly decayed campus scene in the deep winter, there were students in an endless stream.The students were always very energetic. They walked in groups of two or three, talking and laughing, and walked past Jin Lan who was alone.

Jin Lan was at a loss.

What did he do just now?

Although the moment of irrationality is only for a moment, its power is enough to make him feel embarrassed for himself from time to time in the days and nights to come.

Jin Lan took out her mobile phone and called Xiaoyan.

The phone rang and was hung up, and then a message popped up: "Group meeting, listening to PRE."

Then came the second message: "What's wrong?"

Jin Lan thought for a while, and replied, "I just did a very irrational thing."

A few minutes later, Xiaoyan's reply was long overdue: "You finally couldn't bear to scold the boss who made you change the mid-term report twelve times? You're doing well."

"……no."

"It's not scolding, it's beating? That's fine. In the future, our students will build a statue of you, pass on your deeds from generation to generation, and queue up to offer incense to you during festivals."

"what are you thinking."

Jin Lan sighed, and added: "It's related to my junior."

"Oh, I saw it at first."

"Did you see it? Then why are you so poor?"

"I just want to see how long you can hold it. It doesn't seem long."

This man!Jin Lan was speechless, why didn't she usually see that Xiaoyan was so fond of teasing people, obviously this guy was so cold outside with his good face, so many people sent love letters and gifts, but he didn't even lift his eyelids one time.

"Sooner or later, shake off this side of you, and break the heart of the school girl who has a crush on you."

"Please."

Jin Lan was too lazy to talk to him, so she simply put the phone in her pocket and went back to the dormitory.

There was an unspeakable emotion in his heart, whether it was anger, dissatisfaction, sadness, or confusion. He couldn't tell where these emotions came from, who they were born from, and what results they would produce. The strands are like rattan willow branches, tightly wrapped around his heart, making it difficult to see the sun.

He was a little out of breath.He used to feel blocked because of Wen Yue, but even though his secret love at that time was bitter, he knew it very well in his heart, as long as he looked at it, he didn't need to ask for any results, and it was so painful that he was open and frank.

However, the mood at the moment is very complicated, he doesn't feel that his heart is so moved by Luo Weiqiu that he can't rest at ease, he is just angry with himself.Even if he goes to confess in the holiest church in the world and faces the most pious priest, he still can't figure out where the first thread in this mess is.

He seemed to be angry with the person in the mirror, even if he tried his best to break the mirror, he would only find that there was nothing inside, and he would end up hurting himself in vain.

It's just a ignorant and incompetent vent.

Jin Lan returned to the dormitory without saying a word, turned on the computer, and began to proofread the data day and night in a fit of anger.

So I forgot the agreement to upgrade every night.

During this period, Xiaoyan still called him after the PRE ended. At that time, Jin Lan had read English materials all night and was suffering from exhaustion and hunger.He only gave a brief account of what happened.

Then Jin Lan asked where are you.

Xiaoyan's side was in a mess, human voices and music mingled together, making people's eardrums hurt. I don't know where he is.After hearing this, he smiled slightly, and said, "Can't the scientific research dog come out and relax?"

Then he asked and then what.

What did Jin Lan say? Then, I came back to work.

Xiaoyan clicked her tongue and said no, if he really went to dinner with you, then what.

Jin Lan was silent for a while, he really didn't know who would think so much when he was impulsive.But at this moment, he touched his stomach that was clamoring dissatisfied because he hadn't eaten for too long, and said sincerely that in short, eat first, everything is not as important as being full.

Xiaoyan scolded him angrily.

After hanging up the phone, Jin Lan ordered a takeaway for herself.Jin Lan felt sorry for ordering takeaway at such a late hour, and sent a red envelope to the delivery boy, and then went to feed and water the rabbits in the next room.

Another fierce battle followed.The data to be verified was very complicated, and he had to stay up all night for two nights before he could get a clue.

The roommate went abroad for an exchange last semester, and now Jin Lan is sitting alone facing a small desk lamp. He feels that except for this corner, the rest of the world is probably immersed in darkness.

Loneliness is a gangrene, an itch that cannot be scratched, and it is even more difficult to bear when it occurs late at night.Jin Lan looked up, and sure enough, the window was as thick as ink.The whole city sleeps soundly tonight, the warm yellow moon in the past has sneaked into the clouds at this moment, and the lonely one is probably ashamed to show its face.

Jin Lan turned around, moved the mouse, and woke up the computer that was about to fall into sleep mode.He creates a new document.

Of course, loneliness is not a pleasant feeling, but it is amazing that some people can endure loneliness while drawing strength from it.The tranquility of the night calmed Jin Lan's heart a lot, and the long hours of desk work also calmed down the unknown anger in his heart to some extent.He felt his control over his body and mind slowly returning.It is also normal, a car that is out of control will always return to the track.

Jin Lan took out the status of writing a report, and he listed the time, place, person, cause, process and result on the document one by one.The blinking cursor was like a thin but sharp scalpel. He tried to perform an operation on himself to find out the cause and remove the lesion.He confessed his heart to the computer that night, and just cut himself bloody open, even though no one was watching.

The "Research Background" and "Current Progress" were completed, but the operation stalled in the "Short-term Goal".What is his goal?What goals could he have?Jin Lan thought for a while, but found that she still couldn't explain why.But did he want nothing else?If Xiaoyan was here now, she would definitely laugh at him again with a cigarette between her fingers.

I can't write anymore, so I might as well save it first, anyway, it's not late yet, so let's treat conservatively first.When the hour hand crossed twelve o'clock again, he felt a little more relaxed in his heart. It seemed that his previous state was coming back soon. He slumped on the chair and took a breath, pressing his temples.

This press doesn't matter, but it directly puts people in a state of mind: he suddenly thought, he didn't play the game for two days in a row, didn't he let Sisi dove for two days in a row!

Although the game upgrade is nothing compared to the reality, it should be explained to others in advance anyway.

Seeing that it was past 12 o'clock, Jin Lan hesitated, but he still logged into the game.

Although Sisi must have gone offline a long time ago, anyway, let me leave a message to apologize.

As soon as he entered the game, there were indeed several messages from Sisi, asking him why he wasn't online and if there was something wrong.

Jin Lan was ashamed, and quickly replied:

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] I'm sorry, I've changed my thesis these two days, and I forgot

After sending it, Jin Lan sighed. Although there was a reason for the incident, he had never done anything like letting a girl wait for him for two days.

However, just as the sense of guilt was trying to stir up trouble, a notification sounded:

[Private chat] [Sisi] Oh, it's fine

The moment Jin Lan saw the news, no matter how complicated or bad her mood was before, she temporarily gave way to the emotion in her heart.

But the feeling of guilt is especially serious, and it can start a prairie fire.

Sisi is actually online, does she insist on waiting for him until late at night?Jin Lan suddenly didn't dare to ask.So what if I asked, he couldn't afford this favor.

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] I'm really sorry

[Private Chat] [Sisi] Nothing

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] I won't miss the appointment next time

【Private Chat】[Sisi] OK

[Private chat] [Sisi] Then tomorrow night will be the same?

[Private chat] [Sisi] There are not many levels left

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] Okay, I will definitely come

[Private Chat] [Sisi] Then I'm off, Ann

[Private Chat] [Mochizuki] Good night

Jin Lan was moved and ashamed intertwined in her heart, ironed and sad coexisted.

On the other side, Luo Weiqiu closed the computer, and the computer fluorescence reflected on his face disappeared, and he sat alone in the silence, yawning tiredly.

But my heart felt relieved.

Fortunately, fortunately, this time I didn't leave without saying goodbye.

The next night, Jin Lan waited early because she felt guilty.The efficiency of Luo Weiqiu's use of the tuba to seriously guide people to upgrade is indeed impressive. Although the final third level requires more experience, it was finally done in one night.

A brilliant light flashed, and Jin Lan's game characters reached full level.

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] is full level

[Private chat] [Sisi] Well, congratulations

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] Thanks to you

[Private chat] [Sisi] Nothing

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] So what are we going to do next?

Jin Lan's original intention was that it's not too late today, what else can I play next.On Luo Weiqiu's side, it was hard to avoid understanding that from now on, there was nothing left to play in this game.

[Private chat] [Sisi] Full grade is not graduation

[Private chat] [Sisi] I'll take you to a copy

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] Uh, today?Can you make it?

[Private chat] [Sisi] Not today.In two days, remember to update the game in time, a new version will be opened, there will be new maps, new copies, and new equipment

[Private Chat] [Sisi] It’s not easy to play in the new dungeon, you have to organize a group to open up wasteland on time

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] Will there be many people fighting together?

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] Well, what should I do if I don't know how?

[Private chat] [Sisi] It's okay

[Private chat] [Sisi] Actually, neither do I

[Private chat] [Sisi] I learned it first, and then I will teach you

[Private Chat] [Watching the Moon] Good

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] But there is one thing

[Private Chat] [Sisi] What?

[Private chat] [Mochizuki] Can you leave me a contact information?I'm afraid I won't be able to play the game when I'm busy, and it will waste your and other people's time in vain

[Private chat] [Sisi] Okay, please remember my phone number

Seeing that Sisi had sent him a string of numbers, Jin Lan opened the phone book on the phone, clicked "New Contact", entered "Sisi" in the name column, and then entered the numbers one by one in the order on the screen.

Suddenly, a prompt popped up on the screen of the mobile phone: "The contact already exists".

Strange, Jin Lan raised his head and checked carefully.

That's right.

He then went to look at the name that had been highlighted because the reminder existed—

Luo Weiqiu.

Jin Lan thought that he must be too tired today, and the language and word processing system in his brain was overloaded, otherwise it would take him a long time to understand these three simple words.He took these three characters apart and looked at them together, looked left and right, and finally his first reaction was that Luo Weiqiu actually played with a female number?I really can't see it.He also remembered what Luo Weiqiu said that he had been busy at night, no wonder, no wonder.It turned out that he rejected himself because he had an appointment with himself first, but in the end he broke the appointment first.This relationship is quite convoluted.

Realizing this, he laughed. The plot was so absurd that he really couldn't help laughing deeper and deeper.

What does this feel like?It's like a train that has been working hard and running steadily for a long time. After almost experiencing the danger of derailment, it tries its best to pull itself back on the right track. Finally, when it thought everything would gradually improve, it saw a bolt of lightning strike the sky.This is a mockery of fate.

Jin Lan clicked on the "Surgery Record" last night, right-clicked to delete.

What is a plan that can't keep up with changes? This means that plans can't keep up with changes.Everything he recorded, all the things he analyzed himself, after he knew that Luo Weiqiu was Sisi, all changed qualitatively.

But life always gives you a sap and then a heavy hammer.The test is not over yet.

Luo Weiqiu probably saw that he hadn't responded for a long time, so he simply asked:

[Private chat] [Sisi] You can also give me your number, I will save it first

Perhaps because she was afraid that the girl would feel something was wrong, Luo Weiqiu said again:

[Private chat] [Sisi] I won't bother you

Later, when Jin Lan recalled this moment, he couldn't help but hear the voice of a certain entrepreneur.That's what he heard in a lecture when he was just in college.At that time, the school's lecture hall was full of people, and successful people with big bellies gave advice on the stage and talked endlessly.He said: "Treasure every opportunity in your life! Every fleeting opportunity! You always think you have a long time to make a decision slowly, but the real opportunity to affect your destiny is fleeting of."

At that time, Jin Lan didn't have much interest in this kind of chicken soup, but until today he realized that the people who come here still have a unique vision.

At this time, there was an opportunity in front of him, an opportunity to confess, and an opportunity to get back on track.According to the normal process, if he has a clear conscience, he should be shocked after discovering this oolong, and then laugh, call Luo Weiqiu in the game or directly, and tell him that we have known each other for a long time ah.Of course Luo Weiqiu would also be shocked, and the two of them might tell other friends about this as an anecdote.

I just don't know if we can play together without any psychological burden in the future.It's hard to tell.If this is a strategy game, then the two people in the network and the two people in reality are taking two different branches, and the progress cannot be shared.If the artificial merger is forced at this moment, I don't know which side is holding back which side.

Jin Lan had a premonition that he was about to make an irrational decision again, but his heart was clear.It may be that the stimulation in a short period of time came too intensively, and he became desensitized.Recalling Xiaoyan's three-word evaluation, he felt that he should have said with a cheeky smile, "But there are so many dishonest people, so what if I'm one more?"

Jin Lan thought for a while, just for a while.Then he reached out and pulled out the network cable.
