CHAPTER XXIII
My back hurts even more today. I felt very tired and tired, so I went back to the children's bedrooms and lay down to rest.
My head hurt too, my phone was thrown next to my pillow, and I closed my eyes tightly and felt the world spin.
What's wrong with me? Am I sick? And, most likely, I'm very sick.
The trance-like feeling made me feel that nothing was real, and that what I had just done was quickly ignored and forgotten.
Yu Zecheng is right, my memory is too bad. One whistle after another sounded, and several WeChat messages came in at once.
I picked up my phone to check, and it was sent by three people. There was an online writer from Shanghai who asked me if the contract was completed.
Did I tell anyone about this? The contract was printed out and mailed away?
I replied to him: It's been mailed away, everything is going well, thank you for your concern.
He said: It's hard work, and I'm going to update it stably in the future, and I'm looking forward to your masterpiece.
I said: Thank you, I will.
Another one was from a customer who asked me if I was at work, and I said I wasn't waiting for a notice.
In the past two days, customers have been asking me when I will go to work on WeChat. Everyone hasn't taken a shower for more than half a month, and those who ask me are usually like to scrub, and now they are about to collapse.
When the epidemic passes and we return to work, I guess we will definitely be busier and more tired than before the New Year.
Just wait to receive one after another mud people whose bodies are about to collapse!
Because of the hot springs in our place, the bathing industry is thriving, and everyone likes to take a bath.
Now that the baths are closed due to the epidemic, and they haven't taken a bath for more than half a month, those who love bathing are about to go crazy.
What a painful realization!
The third person to come to WeChat is Yu Zecheng. He asked me, "What are you doing?" Why didn't you talk to me?
I smiled, this person is like this, domineering and unreasonable.
I replied to him: I have a back ache and am lying down.
He said: You are idle, you are tired of lying all day long, you should exercise!
I'm a little noncommittal. What he said also makes sense, I usually go to work all the time, and I am very tired every day.
Now I have been doing nothing for more than half a month, and I am not so tired, but my body is suffering from problems one after another: back pain, back pain, leg pain, and skin on my hands and feet.
I said, "I haven't been back to my house for a few days, and I'll go back when the kids are asleep."
The children go to bed on time at nine o'clock these days and behave very well. On the contrary, I stayed up late every night, and often didn't go to bed until about one o'clock in the middle of the night.
He asked me: What time is that?
I said, "Nine."
He said, "All right, go home and see."
Does he know the time and wait for me on my way home? I was taken aback by the idea of myself.
How could he possibly know where I lived, and even if he did, he wouldn't have to wait for me, right?
I'm not a young and beautiful girl, I would have such a childish and ridiculous idea about Yu Zecheng!
Despised myself, and the little man with the red armband in my heart jumped out again, eager to try to judge myself.
I used the shadowless and invisible five-finger mountain to crush this passionate villain to disappear.
I'm not young, but I'm only 38 years old, so why can't I fantasize about love alone?
I asked Yu Zecheng: What are you doing?
He said, "I'm talking to you!" You forgot you're talking to me?
I was stunned: I don't have Alzheimer's? What do you mean by always hitting me with words? I'm not so forgetful!
He said, "Even if you forget the whole world, you must remember me."
I sneered: Narcissistic and arrogant! Remember what you do?
He said, "Remember me, and you won't be able to lose it."
I couldn't help but laugh, remembering that he wouldn't be lost? I said, "I can't tell, I don't have a good memory, and I'm 100% going to get Alzheimer's when I'm older."
He said, "You won't lose it, don't worry." I'll watch you.
Knowing that this is not really useful, it is also very useful to listen to.
He doesn't owe me anything, and I never expect him to be of any real help or support to me. It's good to be able to chat like this every day and have a spiritual sustenance.
In fact, we resumed chatting every day during this time. The Internet has been connected for more than eight years, and there is no contact at all in the third or fourth year, and I rarely talk in the remaining years.
I don't remember why we suddenly resumed chatting.
I asked him: Yu Zecheng, why aren't you getting married yet?
He said: I don't have a girlfriend, who am I marrying?
I said: Then why aren't you a virgin?
He said: Your memory is really not ordinarily bad, you have asked me many times, and you are still asking? I won't tell you, and if I tell you, you can't remember it, and you have to ask!
I'm at a loss, have I ever asked? Maybe it's been too much talk, I really can't remember.
He avoided the topic in such a way.
I said, "I'm not going to talk to you anymore, I'm going to write a novel." The contract has been mailed away, and I have to try to save more manuscripts.
He said, "Okay, don't be too tired!"
After finishing the chat with Yu Zecheng, I clicked on the writer's assistant and started writing a novel. Not very inspiring, but barely able to write some.
After the children were asleep, I quietly packed up my two changes of clothes and left Lao Wang's house.
When leaving, I passed by the door of Lao Wang's bedroom, the light in his room was on, and he was watching a movie listening to the sound.
I paused for a moment and heard a sentence coming from the movie playing on his phone: "My life is up to me!" Is he watching "The Legend of Nezha"?
I didn't tell him, and I didn't need to tell him, that I would be back tomorrow morning before he went to work.
It's a little past nine o'clock in the evening and it's quiet in the neighborhood. I didn't see anyone wandering outside, and it seemed deserted everywhere.
During the day, everyone couldn't stay out, but at night they stayed at home honestly.
My house is just a few buildings away, close by. I walked quietly along the wall of the building, and my steps were very light.
I've always been a slow walker, and sometimes I can't even hear my own footsteps.
I walked downstairs to my own house, and was just about to go upstairs, when a voice suddenly came from behind: Su Li!
