Chapter 42: Life is like a play
The rain outside the window finally stopped, and Meng Tianci called the waiter to settle the bill.
After returning home, both of them tacitly went back to their rooms. Yu Qi was in a bad mood, washed up early, and went to bed to rest-
On a winter night, it was raining lightly outside.
Yu Qi ran in a panic in the dark, she ran from the mountains to a familiar community in her hometown of Jiaxing, she saw the lights on the fourth floor, she wanted to go home quickly, told her mother that she was being followed, and told her mother to escape quickly.
But a voice immediately warned her: she can't go back, otherwise her mother will be involved in her and caught together.
She felt someone behind her, and when she looked back, a vague figure, getting closer and closer to her, she didn't have time to think about it, she could only mechanically climb the wall outside the apartment building, she entered a balcony, then walked through the room, out through the main entrance, and then disappeared into the floor. She kept switching from room to room, and she wanted to confuse the other person and not let her know her destination.
She knew she couldn't stop until she found her mother.
Finally, she managed to shake off her tail and walked into the room where her mother was located. Just as she was about to speak, she saw a figure suddenly appear on the glass window of the balcony, and the face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling was staring at her so proudly.
She was so frightened that she quickly turned around and tried to get out through the door behind her, continuing to play hide and seek with each other on the floor. According to her memory, the structure of the building should be that the door is a spiraling staircase. That's what she does best, and she'll be able to evade her opponents again.
However, why did the door open to a pitch-black abyss? She fell into this bottomless pit without any defense. In addition to screaming, she painfully found that the kind face of her mother, who was chasing her out, slowly turned black and cracked......
If you fall like this, you'll die. "I don't want to die like this!" She desperately tried to grab something, cushioning the black hole's massive suction.
But in the black hole, there is nothing. She realized that this time she was really going to die. Well, let me die like this. She didn't want to live in this kind of day and night escape anymore......
Yu Qi suddenly woke up and found that he was still whimpering, and when he touched his face, there were still a few tears that had not dried. It turned out to be a dream again. She seemed to be still immersed in the tension and fear of the rest of her life......
Lately, she's been having this nightmare of being on the run.
What made her especially concerned was that at the end of the dream, she was already not afraid of life and death. Why do you keep thinking about death lately? Is it because M has repeatedly refused to take her back?
Sigmund Freud said that dreams are the bridge between the subconscious and self-consciousness. What exactly is this dream trying to tell her? She got up and wanted to go to the bookcase to look through her psychology class notes, but as soon as she got up, she smiled dumbly: psychology was in the past life, where did she go to find her notes back then?
She walked to the living room, drank a glass of water, and wanted to stabilize her feelings, reorganize her thoughts, and analyze the dream. She was so busy a while ago that she blamed herself for forgetting the reminders her subconscious gave her every night.
She vaguely remembered that the teacher in the psychology class had concluded that the reason why she always dreamed of falling from a high altitude was because humans evolved from apes, so the original memory of jumping from a tree has always been maintained in the thalamus.
When children are older children, they often have dreams of falling. For her as an adult now, it can only be explained by the recent pressure that has been too much.
But what's the pressure lately? It is true that because the two companies are merging, the workload is very large, but for Yu Qi, who has been trained for many years, this intern job is really nothing.
What's bothering her lately? She took another sip of water and recalled.
Seeing the flashing charging light of the mobile phone on the coffee table, she was shocked: It won't be because of Wang Dong, right?
That little boy, can he have such power? 29-year-old Yu Qi took another sip of water in disbelief. She wants to drink the trouble that the little boy brought to her, and the memories of him in his previous life. And then forget about it all.
She really regretted that she didn't follow the psychology teacher in her previous life and study "The Interpretation of Dreams" thoroughly.
She forced herself to calm down, recalled the dream just now, rethought her thoughts, analyzed it carefully, and finally came to a conclusion: the broken mother's face represented M, because he had brought her to this era, so in her mind, M was no different from her mother. But he repeatedly refused to take her back, so the face of the kind mother broke.
She feels that the biggest pressure in her life is not being able to go back to her own 2021. She didn't want to believe it, but the memory was very honest about the conversation between her and M: M had confidently told her that he could enter her subconscious and slowly help her heal the sickness of her mind. I've been dreaming like this lately, is M giving her a hint? Can't you really go back? She regretted that she had been on M's time traveler in the first place.
She walked to the windowsill with some anger and whispered, "M! You come out for me! You come out! ”
This time M appeared unexpectedly.
"You're finally willing to come to see me?" Yu Qi smiled miserably at M in the red light in front of him.
"I've always been there for you." M's familiar mechanical voice sounded softly again.
"I didn't come to see you because I knew you were going to let me take you back again." M was using his mind-reading skills again, and there seemed to be a hint of impatience on his face.
"But you know, I won't take you back until you're cured."
"But I already know the meaning of life!" Yu Qi didn't want to give up the opportunity to have a conversation that she had won so hard, "I only knew that the idea of working hard was a kind of physical destruction. ”
Yu Qi seemed to shake her head when she saw M, didn't she catch the point yet?
It's so tiring to be alive! She seems to have experienced the hardships of her previous life again. In my previous life, I sprinted desperately every day to try to see if I could finally become a CHO (ChiefHumanResourceOfficer). She is not for the vanity of commanding, prestigious, and showcasing in front of everyone, but to prove her worth.
I feel tired now because I desperately want to return to my own 2021, but I have never been lawless.
She couldn't help but wonder if M had the ability and sincerity to bring her back. Or is it just an excuse for M to bring her back?
Wouldn't it be that he had been dismembered by aliens, and now only his own consciousness remained, right? So she's already the legendary lonely ghost? She pinched herself, and it hurt. She ran to Meng Tianci's room again, punched him, and found Meng Tianci open his eyes angrily. She smiled happily: great, she's not a soul yet. Because the soul beats someone, the person who is beaten will not be in pain.
She knew that she could not explain her behavior to Meng Tianci, and if she told him about M, he would definitely send her to the Shanghai Mental Health Center at 600 Lingling Road. So, before he came to his senses, she quickly went back to her bed and pretended to be sleeping.
Sure enough, her door was pushed open and then softly slammed shut.
