"Xiaoyan, you can help me refer to this extremely important document, if you have time, just help me summarize and correct it together, thank you, you must be careful and careful, next time I invite you to dinner."

"Sister Yan, the boss asked me to work overtime today, but my sticky little boyfriend asked me out for dinner, you see that the two of us usually know everything and talk about the relationship, you can help me replace the task given to me by the boss, next time you need to go to the appointment temporarily, I will help you."

"Yan'er, help me and Sister Yang make a cup of coffee later, she wants a cappuccino without sugar, add two spoons of cream, mine wants a mocha, add three spoons of sugar, don't make a mistake."

···

The sound of crackling keyboard tapping comes and goes, continuously, and the sound of high heels and moccasins stepping on the smooth tile floor echoes with it, singing back and forth, and in the busy huge office, the office staff in white-collar uniforms are in full swing, and there is one of the most helpful beautiful women who is the busiest, and she can't even take a glass of water, and she can't rest for half a moment, because she is the most old-fashioned, and never cares about the gains and losses between human relations, and does not have any habit of holding grudges. is a smile on everyone, gentle words, just like a tame sheep, even some extremely cautious, like to find nothing to find a whole person colleagues are embarrassed to find fault with her to find fault with her, because she treats her work seriously and responsibly, meticulous, deeply loved by the boss, and indeed can't find trouble, even if she finds out her troubles, maybe she will be criticized by the boss in turn, and no one is willing to ask for trouble. Such a beautiful woman with a unique style is naturally a little out of place with those colleagues in the office who like to intrigue and stumble with each other, and naturally let those colleagues more or less be the object of the attack at will, of course, it is the kind of "goodwill" to handle, such as always looking for help, and even a few interns who have just graduated from college and have been assigned or actively applied for and come to the company for internships, at first they were respectful and pleasant, but after a few days of observation and getting along, also began to be very embarrassed to let this beautiful and good-tempered senior continue to help, because everyone knows that this woman will not be angry, and will not take the initiative to find someone to help return the favor.

The woman named Tang Yan agreed to the "little requests" of her colleagues one after another, and her already tired body was like a clockwork machine screwed again, regardless of whether her spirit was on the verge of collapse, she still did it methodically and tirelessly, one thing at a time, with full efficiency, and time was on her body, as if it passed more slowly than on ordinary people.

Tang Yan corrected the so-called "important" documents sent by his colleagues to help refer to them, which are actually some contract treaties that need to take time to read, but the text is cumbersome, and the amount involved is not large, and then Tang Yan walked to the coffee area and brewed two cups of cappuccino coffee, one cup with two spoonfuls of cream, no sugar, one cup with three spoonfuls of sugar, no cream, in order to take care of the feelings of others, Tang Yan was delicate and delicate, and Tang Yan first made hot coffee with hot water, and then mixed with a little cold water, This way you can drink it immediately without worrying about burning your mouth.

Tang Yan walked to the southwest corner not far from her office and gently placed the two cups of coffee on the table.

"Thank you." Sister Yang, who was bloated, stretched out her fat arm like a white lotus root, and took the coffee with a smile.

The tall and thin woman next to Sister Yang who was lazy during work hours and was chatting with her about melon seeds took the coffee unceremoniously, without even saying a word of thanks, and in her heart it was already customary for Tang Yan, a senior, to help make coffee. The tall and thin woman sniffed the refreshing aroma of the coffee, blew it a few more times, and then took a small sip of it with peace of mind.

"Hiss".

As soon as the warm coffee was in her mouth, the tall and thin woman immediately noticed that something was wrong, her expression changed, and she beckoned Tang Yan back, "Yan'er, tell me if you haven't slept well recently, so your memory has deteriorated, what I want is Mocha, this cup is Cappuccino, Sister Yang, is your cup Mocha?" ”

The tall and thin woman looked at Sister Yang cautiously, and the latter shook her head, "I'm a cappuccino in my life, and I didn't put sugar." ”

Tang Yan, who was rushing to her desk, wiped the sweat from her forehead, turned around and walked back, said a few words "I'm sorry" apologetically, and stood in place with a guilty look.

And it's just a small matter of brewing the wrong cup of coffee, and Tang Yan's job is not a full-time errand to make coffee, she can be regarded as the pillar of this thriving large company.

But the tall and thin woman who was tall and tall seemed to have a kind of meaning of being forgiving and holding on, and pursed her lips with a displeased expression, she was jealous of Hu Ying's ability and beauty, and even more jealous of the boss's blue eyes for Hu Ying, but she didn't know where the sense of superiority came from, the master woman just felt that she should be more likable than Tang Yan.

Sister Yang is a person who is especially kind to Tang Yan, she doesn't think it's a big deal, and it is obviously Tang Yan who helps the two of them make coffee, so she said calmly: "Oh, Xiaomei, it was originally the two of us who asked Xiaoyan to help make coffee, and it was just the wrong cup of coffee, and it was not poisoned, and this is not the obligation of Xiaoyan." ”

Sister Yang's joke made Tang Yan smile, and the atmosphere eased a little.

The tall and thin woman nicknamed "Xiaomei", in fact, has a dry appearance and is as thin as a washboard, and her face is still a little unhappy, but she is still a little afraid of Sister Yang's hard goods whose age and status background are one level higher than herself.

Tang Yan looked at Xiaomei's busy back in the coffee area with some apologies, turned her head and said "thank you" to Sister Yang, and then returned to her office, and then helped a colleague to work for two hours, because no one at home waited for her anyway, and it was the same to go home early and go home late, as for the colleague who said that she was going on a date with her boyfriend, but in fact she just wanted to be lazy at home, it was absolutely incumbent on her sister to replace her overtime in the future. But she actually knows that this warm-hearted sister will never let herself return this favor, because her life is unremarkable, she never participates in gatherings between friends, and she has not even participated in the company banquet a few times, and every day is the life of the company and the apartment, which is so stable that people are admirable, in the words of that colleague, Tang Yan's sister is like an old man who has entered the life of the elderly in advance to enjoy her old age, and she does not have the youthful vitality of contemporary urban young people and the passion of enjoying nightlife like a night owl. That colleague also privately mocked Tang Yan many times in private with a few friendly girlfriends who were friendly to foxes and dogs, and their jokes were more excessive than the last, if Tang Yan was present, she would definitely feel humiliated and blush, but she would still help as usual, because she was a kind and non-grudgeful character, and her favorite motto was "Suffering is a blessing".

Tang Yan seems to be energetic and kind to people all the time, she is a rare good employee in the eyes of her boss, and she is a good colleague without complaints in the eyes of her colleagues.

In the eyes of outsiders, Tang Yan's life like Tang Yan, who can win the "Top Ten Youth" award, is not fun at all, too rigid, she is like an outlier, exuding a positive and dazzling light in the dark, which is incompatible with the dark night.

When everyone around you is muddy, if you are alone and sober, then you are wrong.

The world is so contradictory that the minority has always had to obey the majority, and the truth is often in the hands of the few, but the people who are swept up by the huge torrent of the environment have no choice but to join the stream.

But Tang Yan never cared about the surrounding environment, she only made her own lotus flower, blooming with her own charm.

Near Zhu is red, close to ink is black, Tang Yan's kindness and diligence could have made the people who get along with him day and night like entering the room of Zhilan, but some people regard Hu Ying's good qualities as a flood beast and avoid it, and the guy who is willing to sink into the mire and degenerate may have to point fingers behind his back, spurn and laugh at it, and then gather together decadently, continue to talk about his so-called "get rich overnight" and "fall from the sky" dreams, and then look around everywhere unpleasant, everywhere unsatisfactory, I feel that God is unfair, I am ill-fated, I can't complain about the company, I complain that my parents don't give me, I complain here and there, but I never thought about the reasons for myself, and I never thought about changing from myself.

Waste can easily infect other people and become waste together, and then a group of waste together has the ability to change the atmosphere.

The black and blue night covered the sky, Tang Yan helped people work overtime until eight o'clock in the evening as usual today, she returned to her bachelor apartment not far from the company alone, took off her shoes and went straight to her bedroom, first lay on the bed for a few minutes, rested for a while, and then got up and walked to the bathroom, and comfortably took a hot bath to help you fall asleep.

Under the dense mist, Tang Yan's graceful figure added a bit of hazy temptation like hugging the pipa and half-covering his face.

Tang Yan wrapped a white bathrobe and walked out of the bathroom, came to the living room, filled the kettle with some tap water, flipped the switch down, and then she sat on the sofa and opened the beautifully packaged small cake on the coffee table.

Today is Tang Yan's birthday.

As usual, there is no popular birthday.

Twentieth birthday without parents.

"Happy birthday to me." Tang Yanqiang smiled happily.

Plug in the candles, light the candles, blow out the candles.

Tang Yan didn't cut the small cake, so she took a knife and fork and ate it directly, anyway, the portion was not much, so it was considered a supper.

Eating and eating, Tang Yan tasted a little salty taste at the corner of her mouth, this strong woman sobbed quietly, she had not seen her parents since she was born, she grew up as a left-behind child, the only grandmother who depended on each other had passed away more than a year ago, at that time Tang Yan was still a work-study student at Fudan University, and was admitted with an excellent score of 690 in liberal arts, she was only 16 years old when she entered the school, and then she studied diligently, and completed a four-year course in less than three years. When she received the death of her grandmother, Tang Yan applied for a slightly longer vacation from her school for the first time in her childhood to adulthood, put down her busy studies and the upcoming graduation exam, and trekked back to her remote hometown to fulfill her grandmother's last filial piety, and even the thesis was completed during the vigil for her grandmother's coffin.

Ill-fated, but never bowed to fate.

Unconsciously, Tang Yan felt that her head was confused, and her upper and lower eyelids began to fight, so she fell asleep on the table.

The cold breeze outside the glass window blew slowly, and the moonlight as clear as water poured down gently, slightly "horizontally" under the cover of the slight movement of the curtains on both sides, as if it was washing the floor of the room.

Poetic.

The water in the kettle has been boiled, and the spout of the kettle is steaming white and makes a "hissing" sound.

Suddenly, an explosion rang out, followed by the violent shaking of the entire apartment, Tang Yan woke up suddenly, and heard all kinds of anxious shouts echoing outside the door and upstairs and downstairs, so he picked up his mobile phone and ran to the door, casually put on a pair of sandals, opened the security door, and found that the corridor was full of fire, thick smoke, and a pungent smell came to his face.

Fire!

Tang Yan's first consciousness guessed the current situation, so he took off the headscarf on his head to cover his mouth, and rushed out of the door, but because of the slippery feet, he accidentally rolled down the stairs and fell completely unconscious.

···

"The patient was rescued from the fire, inhaled a large amount of harmful gases, and is currently in a coma."

"Systolic blood pressure 156mmHg, diastolic blood pressure 102mmHg, pulse pressure 54mmHg, abnormal blood pressure."

"Heart rate 140 beats per minute, abnormal heart rate."

Tang Yan felt that her face was covered by something, and she could vaguely see the light blue LED panel light embedded in the ceiling shaking, and the sound of her slow breathing clearly echoed in her ears.

After a while, Tang Yan could still perceive what drug he had been injected with through the touch of his skin, and an unknown liquid mixed with gold and black seemed to appear in his sight.

When Tang Yan completely woke up, he found that he was already lying on the hospital bed, and there were several patients who were still asleep around him.

"Nurse... Nurse..." Tang Yan shouted weakly, wanting to understand the situation.

The nurses and doctors in the hospital are now busy with a sudden surge of patients and injured due to a fire in a bachelor apartment and a series of car accidents somewhere in J City, and the sound of hurried walking can be heard in the hallways.

After a long time when no one entered the ward, Tang Yan got out of bed and wanted to go out to have a look, but when her feet just touched her sandals, she suddenly felt an unprecedented pain and madness attack, and in an instant, she devoured her whole body, just like countless ants gnawing on her skin, muscles, and even bones.

Tang Yan felt that she would die for a moment, so she fell back on the hospital bed, panting, her forehead was covered with fine sweat, and soon a lot of sweat broke out all over her body, soaking the sheets of the hospital bed, and finally passed out.

When Tang Yan woke up again, it was already dawn, and outside the window was a cluster of warm sunshine and bursts of spring breeze blowing in her face.

Tang Yan rubbed his head and found that the pain from last night had disappeared, and a new surging power seemed to be pouring out of his body.

"What the hell is going on..." Tang Yan stared at his hands that seemed to be a little unfamiliar, and then walked to the door of the ward, observing his appearance with the glass on the top, although his appearance had not changed, Tang Yan could clearly perceive that he was indeed "reborn", and his body seemed to have inexhaustible strength, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

"Forget it, maybe last night was just a nightmare, and it looks like I should really find a chance to get some rest." Tang Yan comforted herself, walked back to the hospital bed, and took the mobile phone on the hospital bed, fortunately the "handsome firefighter" who rescued herself from the hospital did not leave her mobile phone, otherwise her poor appearance of only a bathrobe would be in big trouble.

Then Tang Yan looked at her watch, it was only 6:40, so she used WeChat to pay the hospitalization fee, went through the discharge procedures, borrowed a white coat from the hospital and put it on, stopped a taxi outside the hospital to go home to change clothes, and thought to herself that she would just have a good rest on the weekend, she still had to go to work today, but don't be late.

In the days that followed, Tang Yan went to and from work mechanically as usual and lived alone, but she felt like she had inexhaustible strength, and she was full of energy at any time, and she was more comfortable in the face of the help and requests of her colleagues, and she was like an iron man embedded with a high-end computer.

What's more, Tang Yan felt that as long as she concentrated, even if it was just a little attention, the movements of the people around her seemed to slow down or freeze, not only that, but her sense of hearing and smell also seemed to become more acute, and her memory became surprisingly good, and the documents on the table and the information of various customers were almost unforgettable.

Although the colleagues did not suffer any impact and blow to Tang Yan after experiencing a fire, but were more industrious and capable, and their hands and feet were more or less curious, and had some insignificant discussions, this did not prevent them from treating Tang Yan as a bad person who helped for free and did not ask for anything in return.

Tang Yan is also happy that everyone treats herself as usual, so as to prove that she has not had any bad things, and she can still integrate with everyone, and this state of harmony is the best.

Tang Yan has always thought that he is still just an ordinary person.

Until one night.

Tang Yan worked overtime until 10 o'clock in the evening that day, because she had the temporary excess tasks that the capitalist boss who oppressed the employees to complete, and she also promised the colleague who was always asked by her little boyfriend to go on a date to work overtime to complete some tasks for her.

In the dead of night, walking on the way back to the apartment, Tang Yan found that she was being followed, and subconsciously thought of the ruthless and evil-doers in the TV news, so her heartbeat increased and her pace accelerated.

The moon is dark and the wind is high and the night kills.

The tall man who covered his face could clearly see the appearance of the beauty in front of him by relying on the street lamp, his mouth was like a single bead, his nose was like a hanging gall, his eyes were like a galaxy, and his eyebrows were like willow leaves, and every part of it deeply touched his heartstrings.

"It's definitely heartwarming!" The gangster changed his mind of robbing money, wanted to have both wealth and color, took out a bright dagger, signaled the other party not to move, and then pounced directly.

Tang Yan just shouted "ah", then subconsciously closed his eyes and kicked forward at will, and when the surroundings were quiet for a while, when Tang Yan opened his eyes, the gangster who had been unfavorable at the beginning had disappeared from his sight.

Tang Yan looked around curiously, and found that the gangster's entire body was embedded in a concrete wall in front of him, and he had passed out.

Tang Yan covered her mouth in surprise, feeling incredulous, she looked at her feet and felt a little strange.

A thin gravel rolled down from the crack in the concrete wall, and Tang Yan was so startled that she hurriedly ran back to her home.

After that, Tang Yan became a little uneasy, not only did she accidentally find that she was infinitely powerful, but also seemed to be invulnerable, even if she picked up a stainless steel kitchen knife and chopped her palm with the mentality of a group experiment, there would not be a trace of blood, just a little numb.

Tang Yan was a little scared, could it be that she had become a "monster"?

After this kind of worry, fear, and anxiety lasted for a while, Tang Yan met a man, the true son of his life.

That day, Tang Yan wanted to go out for a walk, so she came to a pleasant artificial lake in J City.

The birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the air is fresh, the spring breeze is warm, the spring is full of joy, the young grass on the roadside has budded, the flowers on the roadside have budded, and everything is full of vitality.

Tang Yan was walking on the shore, her thoughts were very chaotic, she didn't know why her body became like this, she didn't know where her life should go next, and how she would get along with ordinary people in the future? Is it possible to hide in the mountains and forests alone, and learn from the Taoist priests who do not ask about the world and are separated from the world?

At this time, Tang Yan heard a rapid cry for help, she raised her eyes to see that a child who had gone into the water alone because she was naughty accidentally fell into the lake and drowned, so Tang Yan ran away, not realizing that her speed was like the wind, blowing the grass on the ground.

When the child was close at hand, a figure passed Tang Yan and entered the water first, saving the child to the shore intact, and then the child's parents hurried over and thanked the wet and ordinary-looking young man again and again.

The man touched the wet back of his head embarrassedly, smiled and said that it was a trivial matter, and then sneezed lightly in the breeze, looking embarrassed.

Tang Yan looked at the man, and somehow, felt that the deer in his heart was bumping.

Tang Yan felt that the man's smile was like the bright sunshine of spring, moving, and his gestures were full of hormones and charm.

The man seemed to notice something strange not far behind him, turned his head to look, and was stunned.

Love at first sight.

"Hey." Tang Yan took the lead in saying hello, and then showed a look of shame for the first time, and turned her head slightly.

The man was also a shy master, he was embarrassed at first, but then he walked up to Tang Yan and said that the first thing he said was-"Can I have the honor to meet you?" ”

It seems that the man is actually a little experienced, and he is not the kind of master who can destroy the woman's favor and end the relationship quickly in three sentences.

Tang Yan nodded and left each other's phone numbers with the man.

Since then, Tang Yan has often sent messages to each other with men, good morning and good night, have you eaten, how is work today... Even late at night, he was looking forward to the other party's message, and the man made Tang Yan laugh in front of the mobile phone screen from time to time, and he was in a good mood.

Later, Tang Yan learned that the man was a cake shop selling desserts, and was once invited to the man's shop to taste the craftsmanship, and then the man often sent some elaborate delicious pastries to his company, which attracted the jealousy of many colleagues, of course, more blessings and happiness, because from time to time you can taste delicious free desserts.

A colleague in the company felt depressed, and Tang Yan rarely agreed to work overtime for him, because Tang Yan did have a "boyfriend" and was asked out from time to time.

The intersection between Tang Yan and men became more frequent, and many living habits changed intentionally or unintentionally, such as Tang Yan learned to refuse other people's unreasonable requests, learned to handle interpersonal relationships more shrewdly, learned to participate in banquets, and enjoyed the pleasures of life.

One is born, two are ripe, spring goes to autumn, cold comes and summer, Tang Yan finally agreed to the man's marriage proposal one day, and then the two naturally became husband and wife, on the day of the wedding, Tang Yan and the man feasted guests, most of them were Tang Yan's relatives, and Tang Yan also received an anonymous mysterious gift at the wedding - a beautifully packaged gift box, the gift box was placed with two well-made black knives, the knife body was engraved with cherry blossom patterns, very beautiful, so beautiful that Tang Yan was intoxicated, so drunk that she didn't mind receiving the "knife" at the wedding And bring some kind of bad meaning.

The days after marriage are sweet and sweet, Tang Yan and her husband live a life of not envy mandarin ducks and immortals every day.

But just as the sea cannot always be calm, life cannot always be smooth, and soon after marriage, everything changes.

Tang Yan often has weird nightmares, and can smell some disgusting smells, and even see some weird-looking things in the crowd, which can kill and eat people!

When those strange-looking things first dissected a living person in front of Tang Yan to eat, Tang Yan's stomach juice rolled, vomited heavily, and then fled the scene directly.

Tang Yan had asked her husband and the people around her several times, intentionally or unintentionally, and everyone thought that Tang Yan might be hallucinating due to too much pressure, or crazy, and comforted her to pay attention to her body and rest well.

One day, those strange-looking things began to attack Tang Yan, and they appeared frequently.

Tang Yan learned about these strange-looking things through a letter at the bottom of the gift box containing the black sword, first learned to fight with them, and then learned to use the two mysterious knives, so that he could resolve the battle more quickly without having to fight.

Since he is an "apostle" who slaughtered human beings, and he seems to have become a superman who can slaughter gods, then let himself take a share of the responsibility. When the simple and kind Tang Yan killed an apostle who wanted to attack a human for the first time in his life, he thought about it without the slightest fear or fear.

While continuing to work and live as a normal person, while fighting against these constantly attacking apostles, Tang Yan gradually felt a little powerless, and became more and more worried that the people close to her would be affected, especially her beloved husband.

After more than half a year like this, Tang Yan also came into contact with an old man who claimed to be "Dr. Q" several times and came from a mysterious organization, and learned more about these terrifying things that had been mixed with human society for a long time, but after that, Tang Yan never took the initiative to find that Dr. Q, and the other party's invitations were rejected one by one, and fortunately, the other party did not investigate about himself without authorization, otherwise Tang Yan felt that he would "ask for advice" from that organization.

Tang Yan wants to return to the life of a normal person and wants to get out of it all.

Because she's pregnant.

Tang Yan's belly bulged day by day, but he still had to fight with those apostles and pseudo-gods, they all seemed to be attracted by themselves, even when she was pregnant in October and was about to give birth, Tang Yan was still fighting to the death with a powerful pseudo-god, that battle was particularly tragic, it was the most uncomfortable and closest to death battle that Tang Yan thought was the most uncomfortable, the closest to death, the other party was strong, and he was also jealous, because there was flesh and bone in the abdomen, and there was a fetus.

Rao is in such a dangerous situation, Tang Yan still won, but it was a tragic victory, and her husband found out the injuries on her body, but she prevaricated with the seamless reasons she made up on the road.

Because of the fierce fighting, Tang Yan gave birth the next day and was immediately taken to the hospital, strictly speaking, the baby was a premature baby.

That night, Tang Yan lay on the hospital bed and thought a lot, feeling guilty about the baby's premature birth, and also discovered a desperate fact through clues - those apostles appeared frequently, as if the real reason was themselves, in their opinion, their blood and smell were more delicious than ordinary people, just like the delicious desserts made by their husbands, and the attack of the false gods was because their own power made them fearful and wanted to be eliminated as soon as possible.

Emerge endlessly, continuously, and cannot be killed or extinguished.

The physical fatigue of fighting is secondary, and it is important to worry about hurting the innocent and those close to you.

If you stay by her husband's side and stay in this city, you will definitely harm the people around you and her beloved husband, and this is something that you can't bear and tolerate, so take advantage of the fact that everything has not developed to the worst situation, and nothing happens that makes you regret it, and make the best decision for everyone as soon as possible.

A few days after giving birth to the fetus, Tang Yan decided to ruthlessly leave her husband and flesh and blood, go away, and take the danger away from the city, but Tang Yan still left a letter for her husband, although the letter did not say the reason for leaving, did not mention anything about those terrible things and her body, but left a way to contact, Tang Yan hoped that this could slightly soothe the loss and sadness in her husband's mood when he found himself away.

When Tang Yan left, she also casually found a barren mountain and a wild range, and threw away a pitch-black knife with a sword body engraved with cherry blossom patterns, because at that moment, there seemed to be such a voice in her heart, asking her to do so.

"Mo'er, I'm sorry."

"Mommy can't stay with you anymore."

"You have to grow up in peace."

···

Before leaving home, Tang Yan kissed her son who was sleeping peacefully in swaddling clothes, and whispered.
