Chapter 23 Super Pickup Man
This dream has accompanied Zhou Bei for many years, from the grief at the beginning to the habit of getting used to it later, it took nearly ten years in the middle.
Now that he wakes up from this dream again, there will be no more tears on his pillow.It was replaced by the feeling of emptiness at the moment when I opened my eyes, which was a bit boring and boring.
After all, I have had a dream for ten years, just like Mrs. Xianglin's story about her son being taken away and eaten by wolves. No matter how sad it is, it will be boring to hear too many sad things, even if... the tragedy is her own.
He looked at the man beside him who was still lying on the bed, lowered his head and gently touched his cheek with his lips.
"Woke up."
"Why did you wake up so early again?" Su Ying turned over unwillingly, squinting her eyes unhappily and asked vaguely.
Recently, Zhou Bei's sleep quality is not very good. He always stays up all night or wakes up prematurely. After waking up, he doesn't do anything. Ying had the feeling of being stared at by the eyes of God several times in his dreams.
"It's getting late." Seeing that he woke up, Zhou Bei got out of bed and opened the curtains.
The curtains were blackout, and the moment they were pulled open, bright sunlight shone in, causing Su Ying to frowned and shrink back into the bed.
"It's already nine o'clock and you still don't get up. Have you forgotten that you are going to drink Zhou Jiang's son's full moon wine at noon today?"
"Of course I remember. He has told me hundreds of times. Dare you not go? His wife is only going to have a baby in her 30s. This must be a baby like an eyeball. My uncle and grandpa will have to go if they don't go." Go, if you go, you just pay, give it." The curtains were all drawn, Su Ying had no choice but to get up, his face was full of displeasure, and he muttered.
"I had to call people out for a drink last night at the banquet today. What is there to drink? Let's forget about Lele a few days ago. I've been having fun for a whole month. I'm nagging with people every day. It's so annoying."
Su Ying was already a little bit angry in the bed, but in recent years, he was so used to Zhou Bei that he didn't even cook breakfast. He ate ready-made food every day, and his temper grew so bad that he was told to get up. All the socks are full of vigor.
He put on his pajamas casually, got up, put on his slippers, and rushed to the bathroom. If it wasn't for the urination that woke him up, Zhou Bei might not be able to call out.
Zhou Bei followed behind and also went into the bathroom: "I won't go at noon, you can just go."
"Why don't you go, didn't Zhou Jiang tell you to go?"
"I just had a quarrel with Zhou Jianping, and I don't want to see that old man." Zhou Bei yawned, his eyes were dark and black, and he didn't sleep much all night.
Su Ying said "Hey": "Why are you still calling me old and immortal? Didn't you call your father a good boy before? I also said that he didn't reward you for nothing in the past few years. If you give you tens of millions, you will be in vain." Got a good son, and also downgraded my seniority by a generation, making the whole room scream, he is only sixty, I think he is going to be dementia."
Zhou Bei couldn't help laughing when he heard him flirt with "seniority" without any trace: "Did Zhou Jiang call you uncle or brother?"
"Good question, you go ask him."
Su Ying was summoned by Zhou Jianping to have a talk a while ago, and his posture was like lecturing him as his son-in-law.Obviously Zhou Bei didn't even recognize him at the beginning, but he actually acted out the elder's play there, and his nonsense without the slightest logic moved Zhou Bei, who was so brainless, to tears on the spot. Accepted.
The process was extremely absurd, and he didn't slow down for a long time afterwards, only to find out later that Zhou Bei had shaken hands with Zhou Jianping behind his back to make peace.
"I'm going to ask him what he's doing. I'm not that good with him yet."
"Then why did Zhou Jiang invite you? Tell me, are you calling Zhou Jiang brothers again behind my back?" Su Ying washed his face, took off the towel next to his towel, rubbed it a few times, and handed it to Zhou Bei, "I didn't force you to associate with them. If you don't want to deal with them, just ignore them. They are not important people. If your studio has any resources you need, just ask me for them. You don't need to deal with them too much. No matter how rich they are, they can't give you all, but I'm different."
"What's the difference?"
Su Ying squinted at him and pointed to his own face.Zhou Bei smiled, pursed his lips and shook his head.
"If you don't kiss, don't tell."
Zhou Bei confronted him and laughed at him: "You were not like this before."
"What was I like before?"
"Well... very serious, very fierce, and especially good at pretending to be serious."
Su Ying frowned and thought for a while: "Really? When have I ever been cruel to you? Seriously, I admit it. After all, I am a boss. Can I do without a bit of majesty? But you have to say Where am I serious in front of you?"
Zhou Bei smiled and said nothing.
"Hey, tell me." Su Ying elbowed him while brushing his teeth.
"Then what do you think is different about you? As for the question just now, if you tell me, I'll tell you." Zhou Bei turned on the shower, took off his clothes and was about to go in and take a shower.
"I'm sure it's different. They all have families. If you borrow money from you, you need to be approved by your superiors. I don't have this concern."
"Ok?"
Su Ying rinsed his mouth, rinsed his toothbrush with the faucet on, and glanced at him: "You are my boss, and all my money is yours. Unfortunately, you are too spineless to want my stinky money."
Really flirting for ten years.He is obviously not an affectionate person, but he will act affectionately.
Even though Zhou Bei already knew that he was just a part of the plan, and that Su Ying said these words just to make him happy, he still couldn't resist these sweet words.
With his back turned to Su Ying, he bowed his head and smiled, went into the bathroom, closed the glass door, and closed the shower curtain to take a shower.
Ten years of AIDS is not very lethal to a patient like him who has been treated in time and exercised in this way. Apart from being careful about wounds and not having sex, life is not much different from ordinary people .
It's just that the insomnia has become more and more serious in the past year. I often can't fall asleep all night, and even if I fall asleep occasionally, I will have nightmares.
The content of the dream is still the old three, nothing more than dreaming about some abused scenes when I was a child, arguing with Zhou Jiang, being beaten and scolded by Zhou Jianping, Zhao Li will jump off the building and so on.
Of course, the most frequent dream is that Su Ying kicked him out of the house, told him to leave, and threw a piece of mission plan on his face, telling him that everything was for a mysterious mission, and that everything was good to him and told. Words are false and perfunctory.
He stood under the shower with his eyes closed, letting the water trickle down his face and ears.Only when he was taking a bath did he dare to release some emotions quietly.
"What's the matter, don't talk again?" Su Ying opened the glass door, "Don't close it so tightly, be careful of lack of oxygen."
"nothing."
"I'm done talking, it's your turn."
"say what?"
"Tell me, when have I ever been fierce to you? I haven't even quarreled with you, why are you so fierce?"
Zhou Bei wiped his face: "Ten years ago you were very fierce."
Su Ying was washing his hands, he paused when he heard this: "Ten years ago?"
Has it been... ten years?
"Well, you came to my dormitory and threatened me to live with you without telling me any reason. If you disagree, you will tell the school department about my AIDS."
Zhou Bei raised his head to let the water wash over his face, with a calm expression on his face.
Su Ying looked at the figure in the shower curtain and turned off the faucet: "Is it...? It's been ten years."
"Yes." Zhou Bei said, "Didn't you just complain about why Zhou Jiang put his son's full moon wine on such a grand occasion? Because today is not only the day of his son's full moon, but also Zhou Jianping's [-]th birthday. Birthdays have not been celebrated for many years, and today is not a big event, so you may forget about it.”
That's right, the day the system task was released was Zhou Jianping's 50th birthday.
Exactly ten years.
The deadline for the task.
Su Ying still forcibly took Zhou Bei to Zhou Jiang's son's full moon wine, which was also Zhou Jianping's birthday banquet.Because they stayed abroad for a few years, plus Zhou Bei cut his hair short, and his temperament changed too much, many people did not recognize Zhou Beilai.
Zhou Bei has always disliked social situations, so he has gradually learned to put on a cold face that is not approachable on such occasions, scaring people away before they come to strike up a conversation.
The banquet was so huge that it covered three floors of the five-star hotel.Relatives and important guests are on the upper floor, and the lower two floors are colleagues, subordinates and some less important business partners.
Zhou Bei originally wanted to hang out on the lower two floors, but Zhou Jiang found him and dragged him to the top floor.
"You said you went down to join in the fun, and didn't want to give me face?" Zhou Jiang was 33 people, but he was still bluffing, and pouted when he caught Zhou Bei.
"Su Ying let me stay below, you care so much?"
"Hey, I said why didn't you come up? He asked you to stay below?" Zhou Jiang smiled all of a sudden, "You two broke up and said it earlier. The whole world celebrates the celebration. You don't need to pay today's gift money. Keep it for yourself. I subsidize the small red envelope for breaking up with you."
Zhou Bei: "..."
"Walk, walk, it's his business that he broke up with you, you are my brother now, you are not his family, you can be my family, walk, walk..."
Zhou Jiang's brain circuit has always been quite strange. For example, he had been with strangers for so many years before, unless he occasionally sat at a table for a meal because of Su Ying, and was stared at by Zhou Jiang until his nose was not his nose and his eyes were not his eyes. Seven or eight years ago, before the second period of the youth middle school, they came to point at him and scold him, and gave him a check to leave Suying.
Later, he opened his own studio, and even specially found someone to give him a studio to make trouble for him.Sometimes when they meet each other on a narrow road, they have to put on a face like Rongmao's and roll his eyes a dozen times before leaving.
From childhood to adulthood, the two have had so many knots that they can't even count.Zhou Bei didn't hold grudges against him entirely because he agreed with what Su Ying said, "Zhou Jiang's brain is not good, don't bother with him." He has always been more tolerant of this kind of greenhouse flowers.
But tolerance doesn't mean he likes Zhou Jiang, he still wants to turn around and leave as soon as he sees Zhou Jiang's hanging sky like before.
I don't know why this year, but the God of Plague suddenly came to drink with him, chatted with him, and said that he knew how wrong he did when he had a child.
While talking, clinking glasses with him and pouring wine, he yelled "brother" after a sip.
Zhou Bei couldn't figure out what stimulated him, so he could only attribute this "vision" to evil spirits.
Zhou Jiang is not the only one who has been stimulated in these years, Zhou Jianping was stimulated even earlier.If it wasn't for Su Ying to make it clear to him, he might never have known that Zhou Jianping was the big boss who gave him crazy rewards every time he broadcast live in the past few years. Because of Zhou Jianping's rewards, he directly earned tens of millions. He became the most popular anchor on the platform, and even made the news for a period of time.
Later, he used the money to open a studio to teach children how to play the piano.All the money I earned was donated to AIDS charity, which helped many people.
If you want to talk about why the two men suddenly changed their attitude towards him, it may be that old man Su has a lot of credit for it.
It is said that in Mr. Su's suicide note, the property was divided into four parts and left to Su's mother, Su Qinyun, Zhou Jiang and Su Ying respectively.It stands to reason that although he didn't have much property after retirement, it was still quite a lot, and the remaining part was enough for Su Qinyun and Su's mother to spend their entire lives normally.
It's just that things are not that simple.
Ten years ago, after Su Qinyun lost her child, she reconciled with Liu Yi.To be precise, Liu Yi couldn't let go of Su Qinyun, so she ran to beg for reconciliation.But Su Qinyun had no children at that time, and her father passed away because of her own remarks. Then Zhou Jianping filed a lawsuit against her for divorce, presenting the evidence of her transfer of property. The serious fault almost made her leave the house, and she was involved. The old mother almost went to jail.Fortunately, they have money, and spent money to settle these crap.
Then Su Qinyun had a dispute with Su's mother because she almost went to jail. Su's mother had a heart attack and was sent to the hospital. She almost spent all the money left to save her.
After being rescued, he lived for a year, but when he quarreled with Su Qinyun, he became ill and died of anger.
Zhou Jiang was completely disappointed with Su Qinyun, except that he had no money to give her a living allowance, and he didn't want to pay attention to her anymore.
Several consecutive blows caused this proud woman who had never suffered setbacks to collapse all at once. She washed her face with tears all day long and became a resentful woman.People have become more and more extreme, and their words have become more mean, and they often speak with irony and sarcasm.
As her closest lover, Liu Yi naturally bears the brunt of being belittled and scolded by her every day like her own son.
If something doesn't go well with you, you'll chatter about it for a long time, and if you don't like it, you'll get angry with Liu Yi, saying that he can't do anything other than look good and seduce people with sweet words, and earn a little money. You can be happy for a long time, have no ambitions and prospects, can't afford a woman and have to hook up, childish and stupid.
While she was talking, she also wanted to compare Zhou Jianping with Liu Yi, saying that Zhou Jianping had already started from scratch when he was in his twenties, and had made millions of dollars. If she wanted a car, a house, or a house, she would buy whatever she wanted. , unlike Liu Yi, who bought a 1000 yuan bracelet and had to think about it so much, and finally bargained with someone for a long time, and bought a 880 one back.
One of her most common words is: If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't be what I am now.
Because of her words, Liu Yi often blamed herself and always silently endured her sarcasm.In just two years, he has gradually become taciturn from the love of talking and laughing before.
Later, Lu Ming found out about his cousin's problem, and quickly asked his family members to coerce and lure him to stay at home, forcing Liu Yi to break up with Su Qinyun.
Su Qinyun, who lost all her relatives, basically became a crazy woman who was hated by everyone.
When things happened to this point, it can be said that it was largely her own problem, but she didn't want to blame herself, so she blamed the people around her.
When the blame came to the source, she hated Zhou Bei.
For a long period of time, as long as Zhou Bei went out, he would encounter various accidents. Sometimes he was beaten for no reason, sometimes he was chased and intercepted. I hid quickly, but only splashed on my legs and feet, and a large piece of skin rotted away.
And because I have AIDS, my condition was very serious at one time, and I was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment for a long time, and then I lay in the hospital for a month or two before recovering.
After finding out that Su Qinyun did it, Su Ying was furious and planned to send that lunatic Su Qinyun directly to the prison to face the wall and think about his mistakes.
After hearing the news, Zhou Jiang came and begged Zhou Bei for a long time, telling him not to make a big deal out of it.Liu Yi and Zhou Jianping also ran over and asked him to forgive him.
During the whole process, only Su Ying stood by Zhou Bei's side and scolded all three begging back.
"Please forgive me? Where were you when Su Qinyun came to throw sulfuric acid on him? The fault is that Zhou Bei hid quickly and splashed his legs and feet. What if he splashed his face? You still have the face to ask him to forgive him." ?"
"I don't care about the past, I just want to ask you a question, have you done anything for him that he should be grateful for? If not, what kind of affection do you use to make him forgive me?"
Su Ying pointed at Zhou Jiang, Liu Yi, and Zhou Jianping next to each other and said, "Not a brother, not a friend, nor a father and son. Excuse me, what identity are you begging him for, strangers?"
No one spoke.
At that time, everyone may realize that Zhou Bei owes them nothing.
As a friend, Zhou Bei did not gain friendship from Liu Yi; as a brother, Zhou Jiang never regarded Zhou Bei as a younger brother; Zhou Bei returned all of them.
Zhou Bei didn't do anything wrong to them, and he didn't get anything from them. If he wanted to say it, he would get disgust and hatred.
The source of disgust and hatred is Zhou Bei's unchosen birth—the identity of an illegitimate child.
No one wants to make a mistake if they can, and no one wants to be wrong from the beginning and then make a wrong step.
In the end, Zhou Bei chose to forgive Su Qinyun and kept the matter private.
Since then, Zhou Jiang, Liu Yi, and Zhou Jianping have completely different attitudes towards him. In the past two years, their relationship has reached the level where they can sit at the same table and laugh.
This was unimaginable to Zhou Bei in the past, and it was something that he didn't even dare to imagine in his dreams.
Recently, Zhou Bei often has a feeling that everything in the past ten years is just a dream, too good to be true.So he was always reluctant to sleep, afraid that he would find nothing when he fell asleep and woke up.
Just like in Inception, dreams and reality are reversed, and when you wake up, you find that everything is nothingness.
Ten years is too short, and every day is one day less, or one more second.
Whether it's true or not, he still wants to continue to have this dream again.Take Su Ying's hand, walk with him for a while, and listen to him say a false "I love you".
until the last second.
The banquet lasted for a long time, and everyone at the table was drunk and dazed, especially Su Ying and Zhou Jiang, who were important figures, none of them became sober after a few rounds.
From noon to night, every household came to "recognize the body" when the show was over. Only when Su Ying was lying alone on the sofa, did anyone realize that the person in Su Ying's family didn't know where to go. where is it.
"Hey? Why did Zhou Bei get through and no one answered? Where did he go?"
"Dad, have you seen Zhou Bei?"
"No? Then who saw Zhou Bei? Why did you leave Su Ying here alone? Did they quarrel?"
Su Ying lay on the sofa and slowly opened his eyes, his nose was full of alcohol.
"Stop calling."
"Little uncle, you're awake. Do you know where Zhou Bei went?" Zhou Jiang's wife asked.
Su Ying smiled drunkenly: "I know."
"I know, that's great, where has he gone? I can't get through on the phone, and I still want him to pick you up, it's so late..."
The man paralyzed on the sofa thought and thought slowly, and after about 10 minutes, he remembered the content of the previous call.He blinked slowly, then suddenly lost expression.
[Ding Dong, the progress of the first world quest is 90.00% [-], the target quest has died satisfactorily, please complete the final delivery quest and present a bouquet of flowers in front of the quest target's grave. 】
"He went to... the river."
Now that he wakes up from this dream again, there will be no more tears on his pillow.It was replaced by the feeling of emptiness at the moment when I opened my eyes, which was a bit boring and boring.
After all, I have had a dream for ten years, just like Mrs. Xianglin's story about her son being taken away and eaten by wolves. No matter how sad it is, it will be boring to hear too many sad things, even if... the tragedy is her own.
He looked at the man beside him who was still lying on the bed, lowered his head and gently touched his cheek with his lips.
"Woke up."
"Why did you wake up so early again?" Su Ying turned over unwillingly, squinting her eyes unhappily and asked vaguely.
Recently, Zhou Bei's sleep quality is not very good. He always stays up all night or wakes up prematurely. After waking up, he doesn't do anything. Ying had the feeling of being stared at by the eyes of God several times in his dreams.
"It's getting late." Seeing that he woke up, Zhou Bei got out of bed and opened the curtains.
The curtains were blackout, and the moment they were pulled open, bright sunlight shone in, causing Su Ying to frowned and shrink back into the bed.
"It's already nine o'clock and you still don't get up. Have you forgotten that you are going to drink Zhou Jiang's son's full moon wine at noon today?"
"Of course I remember. He has told me hundreds of times. Dare you not go? His wife is only going to have a baby in her 30s. This must be a baby like an eyeball. My uncle and grandpa will have to go if they don't go." Go, if you go, you just pay, give it." The curtains were all drawn, Su Ying had no choice but to get up, his face was full of displeasure, and he muttered.
"I had to call people out for a drink last night at the banquet today. What is there to drink? Let's forget about Lele a few days ago. I've been having fun for a whole month. I'm nagging with people every day. It's so annoying."
Su Ying was already a little bit angry in the bed, but in recent years, he was so used to Zhou Bei that he didn't even cook breakfast. He ate ready-made food every day, and his temper grew so bad that he was told to get up. All the socks are full of vigor.
He put on his pajamas casually, got up, put on his slippers, and rushed to the bathroom. If it wasn't for the urination that woke him up, Zhou Bei might not be able to call out.
Zhou Bei followed behind and also went into the bathroom: "I won't go at noon, you can just go."
"Why don't you go, didn't Zhou Jiang tell you to go?"
"I just had a quarrel with Zhou Jianping, and I don't want to see that old man." Zhou Bei yawned, his eyes were dark and black, and he didn't sleep much all night.
Su Ying said "Hey": "Why are you still calling me old and immortal? Didn't you call your father a good boy before? I also said that he didn't reward you for nothing in the past few years. If you give you tens of millions, you will be in vain." Got a good son, and also downgraded my seniority by a generation, making the whole room scream, he is only sixty, I think he is going to be dementia."
Zhou Bei couldn't help laughing when he heard him flirt with "seniority" without any trace: "Did Zhou Jiang call you uncle or brother?"
"Good question, you go ask him."
Su Ying was summoned by Zhou Jianping to have a talk a while ago, and his posture was like lecturing him as his son-in-law.Obviously Zhou Bei didn't even recognize him at the beginning, but he actually acted out the elder's play there, and his nonsense without the slightest logic moved Zhou Bei, who was so brainless, to tears on the spot. Accepted.
The process was extremely absurd, and he didn't slow down for a long time afterwards, only to find out later that Zhou Bei had shaken hands with Zhou Jianping behind his back to make peace.
"I'm going to ask him what he's doing. I'm not that good with him yet."
"Then why did Zhou Jiang invite you? Tell me, are you calling Zhou Jiang brothers again behind my back?" Su Ying washed his face, took off the towel next to his towel, rubbed it a few times, and handed it to Zhou Bei, "I didn't force you to associate with them. If you don't want to deal with them, just ignore them. They are not important people. If your studio has any resources you need, just ask me for them. You don't need to deal with them too much. No matter how rich they are, they can't give you all, but I'm different."
"What's the difference?"
Su Ying squinted at him and pointed to his own face.Zhou Bei smiled, pursed his lips and shook his head.
"If you don't kiss, don't tell."
Zhou Bei confronted him and laughed at him: "You were not like this before."
"What was I like before?"
"Well... very serious, very fierce, and especially good at pretending to be serious."
Su Ying frowned and thought for a while: "Really? When have I ever been cruel to you? Seriously, I admit it. After all, I am a boss. Can I do without a bit of majesty? But you have to say Where am I serious in front of you?"
Zhou Bei smiled and said nothing.
"Hey, tell me." Su Ying elbowed him while brushing his teeth.
"Then what do you think is different about you? As for the question just now, if you tell me, I'll tell you." Zhou Bei turned on the shower, took off his clothes and was about to go in and take a shower.
"I'm sure it's different. They all have families. If you borrow money from you, you need to be approved by your superiors. I don't have this concern."
"Ok?"
Su Ying rinsed his mouth, rinsed his toothbrush with the faucet on, and glanced at him: "You are my boss, and all my money is yours. Unfortunately, you are too spineless to want my stinky money."
Really flirting for ten years.He is obviously not an affectionate person, but he will act affectionately.
Even though Zhou Bei already knew that he was just a part of the plan, and that Su Ying said these words just to make him happy, he still couldn't resist these sweet words.
With his back turned to Su Ying, he bowed his head and smiled, went into the bathroom, closed the glass door, and closed the shower curtain to take a shower.
Ten years of AIDS is not very lethal to a patient like him who has been treated in time and exercised in this way. Apart from being careful about wounds and not having sex, life is not much different from ordinary people .
It's just that the insomnia has become more and more serious in the past year. I often can't fall asleep all night, and even if I fall asleep occasionally, I will have nightmares.
The content of the dream is still the old three, nothing more than dreaming about some abused scenes when I was a child, arguing with Zhou Jiang, being beaten and scolded by Zhou Jianping, Zhao Li will jump off the building and so on.
Of course, the most frequent dream is that Su Ying kicked him out of the house, told him to leave, and threw a piece of mission plan on his face, telling him that everything was for a mysterious mission, and that everything was good to him and told. Words are false and perfunctory.
He stood under the shower with his eyes closed, letting the water trickle down his face and ears.Only when he was taking a bath did he dare to release some emotions quietly.
"What's the matter, don't talk again?" Su Ying opened the glass door, "Don't close it so tightly, be careful of lack of oxygen."
"nothing."
"I'm done talking, it's your turn."
"say what?"
"Tell me, when have I ever been fierce to you? I haven't even quarreled with you, why are you so fierce?"
Zhou Bei wiped his face: "Ten years ago you were very fierce."
Su Ying was washing his hands, he paused when he heard this: "Ten years ago?"
Has it been... ten years?
"Well, you came to my dormitory and threatened me to live with you without telling me any reason. If you disagree, you will tell the school department about my AIDS."
Zhou Bei raised his head to let the water wash over his face, with a calm expression on his face.
Su Ying looked at the figure in the shower curtain and turned off the faucet: "Is it...? It's been ten years."
"Yes." Zhou Bei said, "Didn't you just complain about why Zhou Jiang put his son's full moon wine on such a grand occasion? Because today is not only the day of his son's full moon, but also Zhou Jianping's [-]th birthday. Birthdays have not been celebrated for many years, and today is not a big event, so you may forget about it.”
That's right, the day the system task was released was Zhou Jianping's 50th birthday.
Exactly ten years.
The deadline for the task.
Su Ying still forcibly took Zhou Bei to Zhou Jiang's son's full moon wine, which was also Zhou Jianping's birthday banquet.Because they stayed abroad for a few years, plus Zhou Bei cut his hair short, and his temperament changed too much, many people did not recognize Zhou Beilai.
Zhou Bei has always disliked social situations, so he has gradually learned to put on a cold face that is not approachable on such occasions, scaring people away before they come to strike up a conversation.
The banquet was so huge that it covered three floors of the five-star hotel.Relatives and important guests are on the upper floor, and the lower two floors are colleagues, subordinates and some less important business partners.
Zhou Bei originally wanted to hang out on the lower two floors, but Zhou Jiang found him and dragged him to the top floor.
"You said you went down to join in the fun, and didn't want to give me face?" Zhou Jiang was 33 people, but he was still bluffing, and pouted when he caught Zhou Bei.
"Su Ying let me stay below, you care so much?"
"Hey, I said why didn't you come up? He asked you to stay below?" Zhou Jiang smiled all of a sudden, "You two broke up and said it earlier. The whole world celebrates the celebration. You don't need to pay today's gift money. Keep it for yourself. I subsidize the small red envelope for breaking up with you."
Zhou Bei: "..."
"Walk, walk, it's his business that he broke up with you, you are my brother now, you are not his family, you can be my family, walk, walk..."
Zhou Jiang's brain circuit has always been quite strange. For example, he had been with strangers for so many years before, unless he occasionally sat at a table for a meal because of Su Ying, and was stared at by Zhou Jiang until his nose was not his nose and his eyes were not his eyes.

From childhood to adulthood, the two have had so many knots that they can't even count.Zhou Bei didn't hold grudges against him entirely because he agreed with what Su Ying said, "Zhou Jiang's brain is not good, don't bother with him." He has always been more tolerant of this kind of greenhouse flowers.
But tolerance doesn't mean he likes Zhou Jiang, he still wants to turn around and leave as soon as he sees Zhou Jiang's hanging sky like before.

Zhou Jiang is not the only one who has been stimulated in these years, Zhou Jianping was stimulated even earlier.If it wasn't for Su Ying to make it clear to him, he might never have known that Zhou Jianping was the big boss who gave him crazy rewards every time he broadcast live in the past few years. Because of Zhou Jianping's rewards, he directly earned tens of millions. He became the most popular anchor on the platform, and even made the news for a period of time.
Later, he used the money to open a studio to teach children how to play the piano.All the money I earned was donated to AIDS charity, which helped many people.
If you want to talk about why the two men suddenly changed their attitude towards him, it may be that old man Su has a lot of credit for it.
It is said that in Mr. Su's suicide note, the property was divided into four parts and left to Su's mother, Su Qinyun, Zhou Jiang and Su Ying respectively.It stands to reason that although he didn't have much property after retirement, it was still quite a lot, and the remaining part was enough for Su Qinyun and Su's mother to spend their entire lives normally.
It's just that things are not that simple.
Ten years ago, after Su Qinyun lost her child, she reconciled with Liu Yi.To be precise, Liu Yi couldn't let go of Su Qinyun, so she ran to beg for reconciliation.But Su Qinyun had no children at that time, and her father passed away because of her own remarks. Then Zhou Jianping filed a lawsuit against her for divorce, presenting the evidence of her transfer of property. The serious fault almost made her leave the house, and she was involved. The old mother almost went to jail.Fortunately, they have money, and spent money to settle these crap.
Then Su Qinyun had a dispute with Su's mother because she almost went to jail. Su's mother had a heart attack and was sent to the hospital. She almost spent all the money left to save her.
After being rescued, he lived for a year, but when he quarreled with Su Qinyun, he became ill and died of anger.
Zhou Jiang was completely disappointed with Su Qinyun, except that he had no money to give her a living allowance, and he didn't want to pay attention to her anymore.
Several consecutive blows caused this proud woman who had never suffered setbacks to collapse all at once. She washed her face with tears all day long and became a resentful woman.People have become more and more extreme, and their words have become more mean, and they often speak with irony and sarcasm.
As her closest lover, Liu Yi naturally bears the brunt of being belittled and scolded by her every day like her own son.
If something doesn't go well with you, you'll chatter about it for a long time, and if you don't like it, you'll get angry with Liu Yi, saying that he can't do anything other than look good and seduce people with sweet words, and earn a little money. You can be happy for a long time, have no ambitions and prospects, can't afford a woman and have to hook up, childish and stupid.
While she was talking, she also wanted to compare Zhou Jianping with Liu Yi, saying that Zhou Jianping had already started from scratch when he was in his twenties, and had made millions of dollars. If she wanted a car, a house, or a house, she would buy whatever she wanted. , unlike Liu Yi, who bought a 1000 yuan bracelet and had to think about it so much, and finally bargained with someone for a long time, and bought a 880 one back.
One of her most common words is: If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't be what I am now.
Because of her words, Liu Yi often blamed herself and always silently endured her sarcasm.In just two years, he has gradually become taciturn from the love of talking and laughing before.
Later, Lu Ming found out about his cousin's problem, and quickly asked his family members to coerce and lure him to stay at home, forcing Liu Yi to break up with Su Qinyun.
Su Qinyun, who lost all her relatives, basically became a crazy woman who was hated by everyone.
When things happened to this point, it can be said that it was largely her own problem, but she didn't want to blame herself, so she blamed the people around her.
When the blame came to the source, she hated Zhou Bei.
For a long period of time, as long as Zhou Bei went out, he would encounter various accidents. Sometimes he was beaten for no reason, sometimes he was chased and intercepted. I hid quickly, but only splashed on my legs and feet, and a large piece of skin rotted away.
And because I have AIDS, my condition was very serious at one time, and I was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment for a long time, and then I lay in the hospital for a month or two before recovering.
After finding out that Su Qinyun did it, Su Ying was furious and planned to send that lunatic Su Qinyun directly to the prison to face the wall and think about his mistakes.
After hearing the news, Zhou Jiang came and begged Zhou Bei for a long time, telling him not to make a big deal out of it.Liu Yi and Zhou Jianping also ran over and asked him to forgive him.
During the whole process, only Su Ying stood by Zhou Bei's side and scolded all three begging back.
"Please forgive me? Where were you when Su Qinyun came to throw sulfuric acid on him? The fault is that Zhou Bei hid quickly and splashed his legs and feet. What if he splashed his face? You still have the face to ask him to forgive him." ?"
"I don't care about the past, I just want to ask you a question, have you done anything for him that he should be grateful for? If not, what kind of affection do you use to make him forgive me?"
Su Ying pointed at Zhou Jiang, Liu Yi, and Zhou Jianping next to each other and said, "Not a brother, not a friend, nor a father and son. Excuse me, what identity are you begging him for, strangers?"
No one spoke.
At that time, everyone may realize that Zhou Bei owes them nothing.
As a friend, Zhou Bei did not gain friendship from Liu Yi; as a brother, Zhou Jiang never regarded Zhou Bei as a younger brother; Zhou Bei returned all of them.
Zhou Bei didn't do anything wrong to them, and he didn't get anything from them. If he wanted to say it, he would get disgust and hatred.
The source of disgust and hatred is Zhou Bei's unchosen birth—the identity of an illegitimate child.
No one wants to make a mistake if they can, and no one wants to be wrong from the beginning and then make a wrong step.
In the end, Zhou Bei chose to forgive Su Qinyun and kept the matter private.
Since then, Zhou Jiang, Liu Yi, and Zhou Jianping have completely different attitudes towards him. In the past two years, their relationship has reached the level where they can sit at the same table and laugh.
This was unimaginable to Zhou Bei in the past, and it was something that he didn't even dare to imagine in his dreams.
Recently, Zhou Bei often has a feeling that everything in the past ten years is just a dream, too good to be true.So he was always reluctant to sleep, afraid that he would find nothing when he fell asleep and woke up.
Just like in Inception, dreams and reality are reversed, and when you wake up, you find that everything is nothingness.
Ten years is too short, and every day is one day less, or one more second.
Whether it's true or not, he still wants to continue to have this dream again.Take Su Ying's hand, walk with him for a while, and listen to him say a false "I love you".
until the last second.
The banquet lasted for a long time, and everyone at the table was drunk and dazed, especially Su Ying and Zhou Jiang, who were important figures, none of them became sober after a few rounds.
From noon to night, every household came to "recognize the body" when the show was over. Only when Su Ying was lying alone on the sofa, did anyone realize that the person in Su Ying's family didn't know where to go. where is it.
"Hey? Why did Zhou Bei get through and no one answered? Where did he go?"
"Dad, have you seen Zhou Bei?"
"No? Then who saw Zhou Bei? Why did you leave Su Ying here alone? Did they quarrel?"
Su Ying lay on the sofa and slowly opened his eyes, his nose was full of alcohol.
"Stop calling."
"Little uncle, you're awake. Do you know where Zhou Bei went?" Zhou Jiang's wife asked.
Su Ying smiled drunkenly: "I know."
"I know, that's great, where has he gone? I can't get through on the phone, and I still want him to pick you up, it's so late..."
The man paralyzed on the sofa thought and thought slowly, and after about 10 minutes, he remembered the content of the previous call.He blinked slowly, then suddenly lost expression.
[Ding Dong, the progress of the first world quest is 90.00% [-], the target quest has died satisfactorily, please complete the final delivery quest and present a bouquet of flowers in front of the quest target's grave. 】
"He went to... the river."
