Volume 6: Summer Chapter 47 Construction
"The friend who caused me to lose my stable job is completely different from me. He was the kind of person who had a plan for his life and had very clear goals, while I was just living my life in vain. In the end, he died, and even after his death, he was made a scapegoat, with all kinds of dirty water thrown on him."
Jiang Mo sat down at Jiang You's feet, hugging his knees with his hands.
"It was so long ago that I forgot what he looked like. Name? I always got his last name wrong back then. What was his last name?" Jiang You thought hard for a while before giving up. "I remember the emotion that pushed me at the time, the emotion that made me go through Simple Life step by step like a demon and fall into hell mode," he took a breath, "I remember it."
"Regret? What's there to regret?" He put the fruit plate aside, took two yellow peaches, bent down and stuffed one into Jiang Mo's hand, then lay back and started to eat it. "It was just an opportunity. Without him, there would be other people and other things."
A turtledove flew into the yard, landed by the pond, and pecked at the water with its neck stretched out.
"After being brought into the organization, I originally planned to hang around for a few years and then find an opportunity to leave."
Jiang Mo stared at the yellow peach in his hand.
"Why didn't you leave? It's because you were too crazy at that time. I followed you around every day to clean up your mess. I haven't settled accounts with you yet. I'm a clerk. Do you know what a clerk is? It means sitting in the office, drinking a cup of tea and reading a newspaper all day, and taking two vacations a year, one for half a month. How much vacation do you owe me? Calculate it for me?"
Minced ginger took a small bite of yellow peach.
Jiang You glanced at him and he smiled, "If it were when we first arrived, I might have stood on his side."
The turtledove jumped twice, flapped its wings and flew away.
He watched the turtledove disappear into the moonless night.
In a trance, he seemed to see the little black bug, huddled carefully in a corner of his glittering house. When it noticed that he had woken up, it forced itself to roll in front of him and asked a long list of questions.
It’s so noisy.
He said, "How should I know?"
The black little bug suddenly became excited and said, "Before I found this place, I encountered a consciousness that was about to dissipate. Although he would soon be completely annihilated, from the aura he exuded, I could guess how powerful he was. He escaped from there. He told me that before he went to that world, he had already vaguely sensed the power of the law. He had a strong feeling that his opportunity was in that world, and that world was calling him."
He was really sleepy and he closed his eyes.
The little bug's voice became shrill, "He escaped. He said it was a trap."
"Then why don't you go in and play?"
"Why didn't you go?" the little bug asked its question.
He was a little helpless, "I don't feel my opportunity is there."
"Why?"
"How should I know?"
"Why does that world allow weak humans to live in it, but is unwilling to give us a place to stay, and let us fend for ourselves? When we become strong, it lures us into the trap it has set. Why?"
"There's no reason. I'm not strong enough. I'm just being deceived by my inner demons."
The little bug was silent.
He thought he could finally go back to sleep.
He heard the little bug ask: "Please teach me how to survive."
Jiang You opened his eyes.
In the flower bed, the leaves of the Jiarong flowers have grown very thick and large, swaying gently in the night breeze.
Jiang You said: "I remember I used to have a fish tank."
As soon as Jiang Mo let go, the half-eaten yellow peach fell to the ground.
Jiang You stood up, took two steps forward, picked up the half peach, and threw it into the trash can along with the pit in his hand. He wiped his hands on his clothes, "I put a lot of thought into raising some glowing fish, but I overslept and the fish turned into monsters with fangs and thorns in their tails. They were so ugly that I had to throw them away. I don't know where I threw the fish tank."
Jiang Mo stood up and walked into the store.
"He took it away?"
Jiang Mo stopped.
"I actually never figured out why you suddenly pulled me in without saying a word."
Jiang Mo turned his head and looked at him.
"You've been influenced," Jiang You pointed at the night sky, "just like those bugs that were tricked into coming in to be used as fertilizer. We just want to come in and play, why would we go through so much trouble?"
The surroundings suddenly became dark.
The spider web on the ground lit up, and Jiang Mo stood in the spider web, with deep red light flashing in his eyes.
"Don't go crazy."
"If your friend really learned something from my fish tank... So I said, if I stood by him when he first came, it would be considered a half-teacher relationship. Don't you agree?"
Jiang You walked to Jiang Mo and hugged him, "I'm your father. If you're bullied, I'll always get back at you."
He walked into the store.
The door closed behind him.
The darkness faded and the spider silk fell darkly.
Walk up the stairs slowly.
“It’s nice to feel the emotions again.”
…
The next day, Jiang You woke up very early.
When Lin Yu arrived at the store, he had already changed into sportswear and went downstairs.
I drank a cup of honey water and went to Wenfeng Park to complete today's adventure plan. After returning to the store, Liu Boyang and the construction team arrived, and the foreman was still Lu Bin from last time.
After Liu Boyang explained the drawings to them, they started working.
Jiang You went to have breakfast first, and when he came back, he put on a pair of noise-canceling headphones and sat behind the counter to read a novel. He was reading a supernatural novel , the atmosphere was described very well, and the events happened one after another. When he was reading it with fear, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder. He trembled and almost dropped his phone on the ground. He looked up and saw that it was Liu Boyang calling him.
He took off his headphones and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I told them all the things to pay attention to," Liu Boyang hesitated for a moment and said, "Wenjun is going to the client today. He and I worked on the plan together. Some details..."
"Go quickly, I'm fine here." Jiang You looked at the door, which had been taken down. "They also did the yard last time, and they did a good job. Go quickly, don't delay the work."
"Okay, I'll be leaving first then."
"Go ahead, go ahead."
After Liu Boyang left, Jiang You read two more pages of the novel, but he couldn't find the feeling. So he went to the yard and watched Lu Gong and his team demolish the wall for a while. He found that Lin Yu, the supervisor, was much more careful than him, so he said, "I'll take Jiang Mo for a walk outside. He's afraid of noise."
Lin Yu said: "I'll watch over here, don't worry."
