Chapter 229: Pleasure

The evening breeze blows the curtains and brings in the noise of the night.

Huhai City is a megacity in China, with a large population and a fast pace of life, but it is precisely because of the fast-paced life that many people choose to walk along the street after eating after work.

Everyone has their own worries, and this is a way to decompress.

Xu Lang slept very long and deep this night, and he didn't know from which mission, he developed a habit: to sleep for a long time after the mission.

It wasn't until the breeze swept the curtains and kept knocking on the glass windows that the jingling sound gradually woke Xu Lang up.

Looking at the colorful and colorful night scene outside the window, Xu Lang gently shook his somewhat heavy head, grabbed the cigarette case from the table randomly, lit one, leaned against the head of the bed, and inhaled deeply.

Xu Lang's mood is not too good, but it is not that bad.

His sixth mission had passed, and he was still alive, but he was a little lost.

Maybe this feeling has not just risen, since Zhang Qingyu's death, Xu Lang has often been in a state of distraction.

It's a wonderful feeling, and many people may have had it.

The brain was empty, and he couldn't raise any interest in doing anything, and he was not stunned or in a daze, but he simply diluted his vision, his heart was empty, and he felt the coldness around his body.

Emptiness......

Xu Lang began to feel empty, hollow, unlike the group of people on the adjacent street.

Ordinary people's lives are full of bits and pieces, trivial things, and they may feel broken down because they didn't buy the milk tea they want to drink today, or they can't eat a bowl of smooth noodle soup and feel that life is not going well.

Xu Lang had seen and contacted this kind of person, and he used to despise it.

But now he began to envy them deeply.

Because whether they are wronged or collapsed, it is because they still have hope for their lives! They are sad and resentful because they are not satisfied with the status quo.

But what about Xu Lang?

In the "human skin lantern", when he was on the verge of death, he suddenly figured out that his life was meaningless.

It's sad, but it's true.

Xu Lang has no childhood because of supernatural powers, and he vows to find out the disappeared memories and dead parents, but when the matter is found out now, he suddenly feels that this goal is too slim.

He was a living man who had no strength to fight against the supernatural powers, and now he was alive only because the newspaper wanted him to continue this "survivor game".

Significance......

He had promised to live with Zhang Qingyu's hope, but after so much time, Xu Lang suddenly looked back and found it.

He also changed another person, and the girl who lived as long as he lived also changed him.

But with the girl's departure, he began to be confused again, for he could no longer find the meaning of his existence.

Xu Lang seemed to have something missing in his eyes, and there seemed to be something more.

The wind stopped, everything around was gone, and time seemed to stand still at this moment, only the cigarette butts on his fingers were still burning.

......

Knock knock, knock knock.

Xu Lang had just come out of the bathroom, wiping his wet hair with one hand and opening the door with the other.

As soon as he opened the door, Zhu Zixing's sunny smile appeared in front of him, and he held two dozen beers in his hand and raised them up.

"Brother Xu, the dinner will start soon, I'll go down with you."

It can be seen that Zhu Zixing's mood is very good, since the end of the confinement place, he has not participated in these missions, he has grown a lot, and he has completely integrated into the rhythm of the newspaper.

The previous feeling of inferiority and cowardice is gone, especially the iconic smile, which made him very popular within the newspaper.

Xu Lang glanced at the beer in his hand, his face did not change, and nodded, "You wait for me, I'll change my clothes." ”

Not long after, Xu Lang came to the conference room with Zhu Zixing empty-handed.

At this time, the conference room was already full of people, and it was almost full.

No matter what kind of purpose and mood they are in, they all have smiles on their faces, and a very few people have already begun to push the cup and change the lamp at this time.

If it weren't for the special environment of the newspaper, I believe these people would be more relaxed.

The long solid wood table was already full of delicacies at this time, and these were all things that could be conjured up at will in the newspaper office, and they were extremely expensive.

He Xiao held a goblet in his hand, which was filled with extremely precious red wine, and he was talking to a few newcomers in five or six places, with a hypocritical smirk on his face.

Cheng Guoguo and John's side also talked happily, and several newcomers with good personalities got together with them, talking and laughing with their fists.

Rong Chuan and several of his students also joined them, but Rong Chuan looked absent-minded, and his face was not too relaxed, looking at the wine glass in his hand, he didn't know what he was thinking.

Wu Cheng and Kou Zhong, along with those subordinates, also held one side of the conference room, whispering and not knowing what to say.

It can be said that this is the most lively day since Xu Lang entered the newspaper office, and it is also the most complete gathering of people.

Xu Lang glanced slightly, but he didn't see Yan Yan's figure, and he couldn't help but have a moment of doubt in his heart.

Even Gao Yiyuan has already come, why hasn't he been there yet?

According to Zhu Zixing's words, Yan Yan returned to the room halfway through the task, so he didn't see anyone for such a whole day, what was the urgency, and he didn't even participate in the dinner.

As soon as the door was pushed here, the figures of Xu Lang and Zhu Zixing stood at the door, alarming everyone in the conference room.

He Xiao also stopped laughing, hurriedly came to the door with a familiar face, held the door with one hand, made a gesture, gave up Xu Lang's position, and introduced in a loud voice: "This is the top wise man in the newspaper, Xu Lang." ”

As He Xiao's words fell, many newcomers began to turn their heads and ears, some of whom were not familiar with Xu Lang before, but after this mission, they could see that this was a thigh-level figure.

One by one, with a "friendly" smile on their faces, they began to applaud sycophants.

This made Xu Lang frown, he was extremely disgusted with this kind of occasion, if he could, he would not want to stay here for a minute.

Especially He Xiao pretended to stand by his side intimately, which made him even more disgusted in his heart.

Xu Lang's face was cold, he didn't look at this group of people, took a dozen beers from Zhu Zixing's hand, and walked quickly in the nameless direction.

Nameless was sitting in a corner at this time, drinking alone by himself, when he saw Xu Lang and Zhu Zixing walking towards him, he casually pulled a few chairs and gave up some places a little.

"I thought you weren't coming?"

Zhu woke up and opened two bottles of beer, gave one to Xu Lang, touched his nameless wine glass lightly, raised his head and poured a big sip, then wiped the corners of his mouth, and said with a smile: "How can you not come to the first dinner after entering the newspaper office." ”

Nameless raised his head and drank the red wine, slowly poured half a glass, looked at Zhu Zixing's face, snorted from his throat, turned his head and squinted at Xu Lang.

"Then why are you here?"

Xu Lang didn't know how to answer, his face was a little abnormal, he grabbed the wine bottle on the table, drank half a bottle before putting it down, and with a slight hiccup, he remembered a word.

"Emptiness."

Hearing this, Zhu Zixing almost didn't spit out the wine he had just drunk into his mouth, and he didn't understand how this could come out of Xu Lang's mouth.

But then he sighed slightly and said, "I'm also because of emptiness." ”

Zhu Zixing looked at the two of them in some astonishment, scratched his head, and pointed to the people in front of him.

By this time, the group had already begun to put on music, danced in the conference room, and even a few newcomers who had seen each other had begun to form pairs.

"You guys are just too smart, thinking too much, you see these people, obviously they haven't performed a single mission, and they are still crazy without heart and lungs."

Xu Lang shook his head, "They have no brains, unlike us." After saying this, he set his eyes on Gao Yiyuan, who was not far away.

He is very familiar with this person, he has fought side by side with him on the Yin and Yang Road, Gao Yiyuan's personality is actually somewhat similar to Nameless, but it is a little different.

In general, he was able to become a Yan Yan person, on the one hand, because of Mo Ye's entrustment, but his own superior ability was also a major reason.

After all, in that mission, Xu Lang was just a soy sauce character, and Gao Yiyuan's performance was too eye-catching.

"Gao Yiyuan!"

Xu Lang raised his head and shouted loudly, attracting Gao Yiyuan's attention.

He glanced at Xu Lang a little inexplicably, in fact, their relationship was not good, and there were conflicts on the road of yin and yang, and now that he joined Yan Yan's team, he did not have any intersection with Xu Lang.

Gao Yiyuan was a little stunned, took the wine glass and slowly came to Xu Lang's face, found a chair and sat down.

looked at Nameless and Zhu Zixing, "What's the matter, Xu Lang?" His attitude towards speaking was not very good, the survivors on the Yin and Yang Road at the beginning were only him and Xu Lang, Zhang Qingyu and Mo Ye both died for Xu Lang in his opinion.

This made him have a deep fear and boredom of Xu Lang.

Xu Lang didn't care about his tone, but asked in a low voice, "Where is Yan Yan?" ”

Gao Yiyuan sneered when he heard this, and took a sip of wine, "How do I know where he is?" ”

Xu Lang didn't get angry, and he didn't care about his attitude, he picked up the wine bottle and touched it in the air, and drank the bottle of wine.

The rest of the room, after a brief moment of familiarity, became more and more crazy, and it seemed to be a nightclub, where everyone was shouting and making noise, as if they were going to have fun today.

He Xiao flirted with a beautiful woman, Cheng Guoguo was punching over there, and Rong Chuan also put down his burden and talked to those people.

Xu Lang leaned on the back of the chair, holding a cigarette in his hand, looked at the crazy crowd, and said faintly: "The happiness of overdraft now will be repaid with countless times despair in the future......"
