Chapter 3 The so-called success
The air smells of magnolia flowers, and a few magnolia flowers are placed in a glass filled with water, and snow-white petals float on the water. The candlelight around them shines on these cups, making the magnolia flowers appear as if they are gilded with a layer of gold, and there is a little nobility in the beauty.
Of course, this kind of magnolia flower is actually not expensive, Cheng Shuixin bought it for only a dozen yuan, and she is very good at making these small props that enhance the interest of life. A few glasses, a little water, and some art candles, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became full of petty bourgeois style, and even a bit like the opening remarks of a love show.
In such a room, Cheng Shuixin was lazily lying on a lazy sofa, pressing her hands on a Bluetooth keyboard, looking up at the laptop display on the computer stand.
The scented air is filled with clean music, the fine and long violin notes flow, and the sadness is filled with joy, just like a true portrayal of life.
In the past, Cai Yan must have liked this kind of working environment very much, but now this situation is not so similar to receiving it to her.
Cheng Shuixin said that she was "casual", but of course she didn't care much about her, she entered the work state by herself, and didn't even look at Cai Yan.
Cai Yan, who was also the proud daughter of the sky once upon a time, was speechless about Cheng Shuixin's posture, and of course she was not in the mood to worry about Cheng Shuixin. You must know that although this classmate is younger than himself, he is not far behind when it comes to all kinds of fierceness.
In the past few days, Cai Yan has thought about it several times, she has observed Cheng Shuixin's various states inside and outside work, home and outside, and she has to sigh that the young girl is full of energy. Cheng Shuixin seemed to never run out of energy, busily solving various problems, keeping the company in good order inside and outside, and even having time to visit Zhang Yao. If Cai Yan was allowed to do so much work by herself, she felt that she would not be able to stand such hard work.
The most rare thing is that in the face of all kinds of endless problems, Cheng Shuixin can still maintain a similar good mood, which Cai Yan really admires.
From Cai Yan's point of view, people are the creatures that are most likely to be troubled by trivial matters, including the angry father at home, who needs all kinds of assistants and all kinds of people to help him solve small things, and only make some big decisions. Cheng Shuixin is happy to do things by herself, and she has always maintained her interest.
At first, Cai Yan thought that this was a little girl's excitement, and it would eventually disappear as Cheng Shuixin's mind matured and her vision broadened. But after a few days of observation, Cai Yan had to admit one thing in frustration, that is, Cheng Shuixin was indeed far superior to herself in terms of inner firmness. This girl may have a world hidden in her heart, and it is still expanding with her footsteps.
This kind of person is very terrifying, even if Cheng Shuixin will show a gentle smile that makes people feel happy in a second, Cai Yan still feels that this girl in her bones has the temperament similar to the uncontrollable crazy pea tree in fairy tales.
Judging from the current flow managed by Cheng Shuixin for Su Yifan, the various sales revenues of the game have long exceeded the limit that an ordinary high school student can control. But no matter how closely Cai Yan observed, he didn't see any high-spirited performance of Cheng Shuixin.
This kind of introverted and self-discipline is already close to the textbook level, Cai Yan really doesn't know how Cheng Shuixin did it, after all, this is just a little girl in a small city, and it is limited to say that she has seen a little bit of the world.
Of course, Cai Yan didn't know how much Cheng Shuixin had changed in the past six months, and she didn't accompany Cheng Shuixin to finish those roads, so naturally she couldn't understand it.
Cheng Shuixin, who had been typing non-stop, also noticed Cai Yan's gaze observing her, but she didn't care. Cheng Shuixin, who was at home at night, casually wore long hair, a set of clean pajamas, and a fragrant fragrance on her freshly washed face, just like her name.
Both parents are not at home, and the two have their own activities, Cheng Shuixin neither wants to participate in social activities, nor does she go around with Cai Yan. After dealing with the company in the afternoon, Cheng Shuixin took Cai Yan back directly, but Cai Yan was still worried about Su Xiaoqing's matter and didn't say anything.
The feeling between the two girls is very strange, Cai Yan not only feels that Cheng Shuixin will definitely be a very strong enemy in the future, but also feels very comfortable with such a girl. There's no superfluous nonsense and no flashy stuff, just a simple life, which is exactly what she wants to pursue. Doing things, going home, seeing the scenery on the way, clean environment, and occasionally a little mood...... If it weren't for her strong sexuality, Cai Yan felt that she was almost going to like this girl with a strong heart. In contrast, those so-called friends and relatives will praise each other when they meet, surprise each other that they have recently become beautiful again, eat elegant restaurants and talk about tall and big financial fashion topics, and finally return home and start to scrub each other secretly. As soon as he thought of this, Cai Yan felt so disgusted that he wanted to vomit.
After a piece of music ended, Cai Yan even began to really feel that this kind of life made him very comfortable, Cheng Shuixin, who was crackling and typing, suddenly stopped his movements and glanced back at Cai Yan who was leaning on the carpet next to the bed and reading a book.
"It seems that the time left for you by the young sister is running out, do you have any good ideas?"
With just one sentence, Cheng Shuixin instantly succeeded in beating Cai Yan's mood from heaven to hell.
The time left by Su Xiaoqing for Cai Yan will soon come, and there will not be much progress in tracking down the murderer or finding Su Yifan. The news from the Cai family was that all kinds of clues were interrupted, as if the whole conspiracy had started out of thin air.
Cai Yan blinked, wanting to be strong and not be looked down upon by Cheng Shuixin, but her mood was still irrepressibly low, staring at Cheng Shuixin's big eyes and almost dripping tears.
"Although I don't know how Sister Lu Dao will punish you, I think you still haven't been prepared for that." Cheng Shuixin closed the laptop, and quickly saved the manuscript with the shortcut key before this action was completed, "If things still take a turn for the better, do you want to try to work hard?" ”
Cai Yan really wanted to cry at Cheng Shuixin: "Do you think I don't want to?" But so far, I haven't made any progress, and Su Xiaoqing will definitely kill me...... She must dare to do this, she must dare to ......"
Listening to Cai Yan's nervous repeated muttering, Cheng Shuixin shook her head and said, "If Sister Qing really wants to kill you, I'm afraid she won't hesitate...... Last night she said to let us be careful, and then called me to tell me that the problem was solved, do you know what the problem is? ”
Cai Yan shook her head, her tears were not held back, and they were still falling big and big.
"I don't know what to do......"
Cheng Shuixin sighed: "Forget it, then I'll find time to ask Sister Qing tomorrow." It's a pity that Sister Qing doesn't like me very much, if Yang Bingbing asks, I guess she won't embarrass you. ”
Cai Yan raised his head in some surprise: "What did you say?" Su Xiaoqing doesn't like you? ”
Cheng Shuixin smiled self-deprecatingly: "Of course, if it weren't for Su Yifan's relationship, Sister Qing probably wouldn't have ignored me." I could feel that she was deliberately distancing herself from me, and it seemed to be better now, but I felt like it was still there. ”
Cai Yan felt unbelievable about Cheng Shuixin's words, but she didn't think there was any need for Cai Yan to deceive herself on this kind of issue. After all, this topic is not so pleasant, Cheng Shuixin knows that Su Xiaoqing is very powerful, so she will not make Su Xiaoqing unhappy for no reason.
"How is that possible? I think she is very precious to you, she warned you last night when nothing happened. ”
"That's also because of Su Yifan." Cheng Shuixin said with a little melancholy, "For the young sister, the most important person in this world is probably him, right?" If it weren't for Su Yifan's relationship with me so well, do you think I would have the opportunity to meet Sister Qing? ”
"This ......" Cai Yan suddenly didn't know what Lu Dao said, she was not used to Cheng Shuixin being so honest.
Cheng Shuixin smiled at Cai Yan, the smile was still so sweet that even the candles in the room were discolored, her slender white arms were raised high, and the girl stretched her waist.
"Don't be surprised that I will tell you this, even if you say it in front of the young sister, it doesn't matter, she knows the way, I know the way, I know the way, I know the way, I know the way, I know the way. Hehe, doesn't that sound like a tongue twister? But that's really it, it's just that everyone has a tacit understanding with each other, and no one will mention this kind of topic. ”
Cai Yan was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: "Then why do you have to work so hard to maintain a relationship with Su Xiaoqing, anyway, you don't care about money." ”
"Who says I don't care anymore?" Cheng Shuixin smiled and asked, "Of course I care about money, each of us will have some material things, this is something that can't be helped." ”
Cai Yan shook his head and said, "I don't believe it." ”
"Whatever you want." Cheng Shuixin didn't react much to Cai Yan's words, but continued to ask very calmly, "You're curious about why I'm trying to have a good relationship with Sister Qing, right?" ”
As long as Cai Yan stopped crying, her mind was still normal, and she immediately understood what she was doing.
"Su Yifan!"
Cheng Shuixin smiled with a little satisfaction: "Yes, of course it's because of him." Sister Qing is not a stranger to me because of him, and I also believe in Sister Qing unconditionally because of Su Yifan. ”
"For what?" Cai Yan still couldn't understand, "Su Yifan is not as good as you say?" ”
Cheng Shuixin smiled and shook her head, at this time, the smile on her face was finally no longer the kind of taste that made people feel sweet, but with a subtle feeling close to happiness.
"Of course he's not that good, it's just not that good, it's that good."
It's still like a tongue twister, but this time Cai Yan actually understood it.
"Is that what you crave?" Cai Yan asked Cheng Shuixin, "I don't think what you yearn for seems to be these things." ”
Cheng Shuixin's face still maintained that smile, she looked at Cai Yan and replied: "I want to thank Su Yifan, he let me know that success is not the most important thing." Those so-called successes are only because there is no other satisfaction in their hearts. ”
Cai Yan felt that Cheng Shuixin's words seemed to have scolded her father, but she felt that what she said was right.
As one writer put it, what is success? Isn't it just to make a few bucks and let a bunch of fools know the way?
