Chapter 52: Halfway

Going to work, getting off work, eating, sleeping, life is like a Morbius ring, it seems that every day is different, but it is extremely similar, although my heart reminds myself over and over again that every day is different, but I still can't get rid of the tiredness and boredom brought by the familiar scene, and I have to walk in circles with numb instinct, constantly circling the similar scene, doing similar things, I can't stop, I can't take off.

Life is a one-way ticket, moving towards the ring in a seemingly prosperous scene, walking alone, tasting loneliness, unwillingness, loneliness, and sadness. Looking at the similar scenery, reminiscing about the sadness that passed by, missed, and was once happy.

Life never stops, no one knows where the end is, and no one can get off halfway. No matter how you treat life, whether you are optimistic or pessimistic, life is always walking slowly, not returning, not changing, leaving only the figure that rises and falls in the red dust and is lonely under the bright lights.

I shook my head, extinguished my cigarette, turned around and walked back to the lobby of the Internet café.

"Hey, it's over?" Wang Huan looked at the computer screen and asked in a cold voice.

"I just smoked a cigarette." I replied lightly.

"When you're done, I'll fix the computer, I'll be waiting for you on the 28th." Wang Huan's tone was still cold, and his eyes still didn't leave the computer screen.

I came to the No. 28 computer, looked at the blue screen monitor, and then looked at the owner who was dancing with his eyebrows and the beautiful woman snuggled in his arms whispering, frowned, and asked, "Did you restart?" ”

"Hmm." The owner of the aircraft replied with a sigh.

"Please get out of the way, I'll take a look at the machine."

The owner didn't move, still holding the beauty and whispering in a low voice.

"Who knows if you have me in your heart?" The beautiful woman glanced at him coquettishly and said with disgust.

"I only have you in my heart, I swear by pointing to the computer." The owner sternly raised three fingers.

The beauty looked at the computer with a blue screen and burst out laughing.

"That, that," the owner looked at the beauty in embarrassment, then suddenly turned his head sharply and glared at me angrily, "Why don't you fix the computer quickly?!" ”

"Then please get out of the way." I raised my voice a little more.

"Who knows if you're still thinking about being quiet?" The beauty's little hand scratched at his chest and continued to complain.

"I want to be quiet, too!" Wang Huan suddenly walked over and shouted coldly.

"Who do you miss too?" The owner turned his head and looked at Wang Huan in surprise, which made the beauty in his arms feel angry again.

"I really can't stand it, just go online, you say you show affection in front of a person who has just fallen out of love, so embarrassed?"

"Huh? Beauty, are you out of love? The owner nudged the beautiful woman in his arms and asked with interest.

"Cut." Wang Huan glanced at him coldly.

"Oh." The man looked at me suddenly, pitifully and ostentatiously.

"Get out of the way, I want to fix the computer." I looked at him, didn't pay attention to his eyes, and said lightly.

The man finally moved a little away, and I tapped on the keyboard and said, "Let's change the machine, this one needs to be repaired out of the box." ”

The man glanced at the Internet café, "There are no adjacent seats, no need to change them, you can fix it like this." ”

"I can't fix it." I said.

"Why?"

"Your actions will interfere with me." I said lightly.

"Why don't we change it?" The beautiful woman in the man's arms looked at the man with silky eyes and said softly. The tone was less like a request and more like a provocation.

"Fix it right here." The man looked at me with his head held high, and his tone was full of domineering.

"I'm sorry I can't fix it, or I'll return the money to you, and you go out and turn left?" Wang Huan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.

"Where is the left turn?"

"Hotel." I said.

"Hotel?"

"You're so bad." The beautiful woman in the man's arms scratched the man's chest.

"Fix it right here." The man looked at the beautiful woman in his arms and glared at me again.

"It can't be repaired, and when people are doing something, they have the greatest chance of failure if they are disturbed in the middle." I said.

"What do you mean?"

"Halfway effect."

"What, what effect?"

"The halfway effect is that you are most likely to fail halfway through the process. The halfway effect also shows that in the middle of the process, if the expectation of the state of affairs deviates from the intended goal, people tend to excessively show emotions and preferences that exceed the intended goal to make up for the psychological gap that the situation deviates from the direction. ”

"Oh, what does that mean?" The beautiful woman in the man's arms looked at me with interest and asked.

"Don't you understand? Those who show affection are often thinking about breaking up, who knows if they are thinking about showing affection in their hearts, so as to make up for the gap in their hearts that are about to break up. Wang Huan said word by word with a light smile.

The beauty's face changed, and she broke free from the man's arms, "That, let's get off the plane." ”

"Huanhuan, don't listen to their nonsense," the man was a little anxious, glaring at me and Wang Huan, "You, you"

The beautiful woman named Huanhuan smiled awkwardly and said slowly, "We, let's go." With that, he left the man and turned and walked towards the stairs.

"Huanhuan, wait for me." The man glared at us, then turned and chased down the stairs.

"The halfway effect also shows that the more you deviate from the goal of rationality, the easier it is to fail." Looking at their backs, I said lightly.

The man paused abruptly, and then continued to chase after the beauty.

Wang Huan looked at me and suddenly laughed, "I didn't expect you to be quite annoying." ”

"I'm telling the truth." I shook my head slightly.

In the journey of life, everyone will be more or less, when they are proud, when they are sad, when they are frustrated, they will deliberately use a smile to greet the wind and snow that they know will be lost, and they know that they will lose the good times, just to make themselves look strong enough, just to leave a trace of illusory marks on the way that they can't stop.

"Facts, cut." Wang Huan smiled lightly, with a taste of disdain, her eyes drifted to the door again, and suddenly her face changed, she snorted lightly, and turned around and walked to the bar.

I looked up at the door subconsciously, and saw Sun Hao running towards us in a panic.

"What are you doing here?" Wang Huan stared at the screen and threw out a hard sentence.

"That, that, I'm here to find Xiaoshan, that, that, Wang Meinu is also there." Sun Hao squeezed out a smile and said, his expression was extremely unnatural.

"Hmph."

"What's the matter?"

"Luxue is leaving."

I nodded slightly, shook my head again, and didn't answer his words.

Sun Hao let out a long sigh, "She should be at the airport now, and she asked me to give this to you when I left the door." As he spoke, Sun Hao took out a letter and handed it to me.

I looked at Sun Hao and then at the letter, but I didn't pick it up, turned around and walked to the bar.

"Hey, Xiaoshan, are you so ruthless?" Sun Hao hurried over and slapped the letter on the bar, "The letter, I delivered it, what to do with it is your business!" ”

Wang Huan looked at Sun Hao and whispered to me, "Or you can take a look." ”

I shook my head helplessly, "Why bother. ”

"Cowardice." Wang Huan said coldly.

"Cowardice?"

"Isn't it? Do you think that if you keep a straight face and pretend to be cool, you will be strong? That's just pretending to be strong, do you think that's the end of it? Do you think that if you don't get involved, it doesn't matter to you? That's cowardice! Wang Huan stared at the display screen and said coldly, seemingly with a hint of anger.

Sun Hao also seemed to sense Wang Huan's anger, and carefully took half a step back.

Cowardly, I shook my head gently, yes, although I don't want to admit it, but it is true, when the situation is beyond my control, when no matter how calm I can't shield the distractions of the outside world, I will withdraw from the matter, no longer care about the chaos of the outside world, and just meditate quietly. Cowardice, yes, there are times when I do.

"Don't always say anything about the halfway effect, I only know that those who walk a hundred steps are half ninety." Wang Huan softened his tone and said, while also glancing at Sun Hao.

Those who take a hundred steps are half ninety, yes, the state of affairs will not come to an abrupt end because of who's withdrawal, whose shelving will continue, the state of affairs will still develop, the first ninety-nine steps are half, the hundredth step is the other half, quit before the end of the situation I think this is indeed a cowardly act, even if it is difficult, even if it is sad, I think I should face this bleakness and bear this heartache.

I settled, smiled helplessly, and reached out to pick up the letter.
