Zheng Mingyi is just an otaku, the kind that is very homely, the usual living area is just that one acre and three points of land, and the place he often goes to is just the supermarket downstairs, and he usually walks the farthest place, and it will not exceed the scope of the community.

When did this life begin?

I don't know, maybe it was a year ago, maybe it was two years ago, anyway, it's been a long time.

Inexplicably, he began to hate socializing, and his circle became smaller and smaller, perhaps because of the nature of his work and the pursuit of freelancing, Zheng Mingyi's lifestyle began to change.

His job is very simple, video editing and audio production, all the work, just a computer is enough.

You don't have to work 9 to 5, you have to face overtime under all kinds of excuses, you don't have to face colleagues who seem to have a good relationship with you all day long, but they have their own ghosts, and you don't have to face the boss who always oppresses you and then takes the credit away from you.

From the very beginning of receiving private jobs, to later, he established stable cooperative relations with many people on the Internet, and Zheng Mingyi finally chose to resign.

Being at home alone, working, and living, without the persecution of his boss and the comparison of his colleagues, life began to become simpler, and he had more free time, he could watch a movie by the way while editing videos, and lie in bed and sleep well when he was supposed to go to work.

And most importantly, he makes a lot more money every month than before.

Zheng Mingyi doesn't have a girlfriend, it should be said that he doesn't have it now, he originally had a girlfriend, but for work, for the company, overtime, overtime, overtime...

Time is getting less and less, not to mention going out on a date with your girlfriend, even time for video chatting, and many times it's your girlfriend who sends a message, and by the time he sees it, hours have passed.

Therefore, he was dumped, and it can be said that he broke up peacefully, after all, the two did not have any conflicts on the issue of breaking up.

A person's voice, simple and leisurely, in fact, the fact that there is no girlfriend is nothing if I think about it now, perhaps, life seems to have gotten better.

Don't think about the hundreds of thousands of bride price, don't think about the nearly one million house, the pressure suddenly moved away a little.

Moreover, time becomes free, eating is just one person, just deal with it casually, you don't have to think about giving your girlfriend a gift if you have nothing to do, you don't have to think about whether your girlfriend's shopping cart should be cleaned up, and you don't have to care about the boring and boring stalks of those first cups of milk tea in autumn.

In addition to paying rent, water and electricity, and paying for one's own meals every month, there is still a lot of money left, and you can save a lot of money, and then you can think about when you can get a new computer or buy a game skin.

The money earned is only a quarter more than before, but the money saved has more than doubled compared with before, and this kind of life makes Zheng Mingyi happy and satisfied.

However, a person's life is a bit boring after all.

Zheng Mingyi doesn't have pets, there is only one person in the family, he is tired of playing games, watching movies, and watching all kinds of small videos, he is starting to get bored.

In this world, the most terrible thing for a person is not loneliness, but boredom.

Every day, as always, he completed the next list, then delivered, got the money, and chatted with a few netizens, but when the words were finally finished, after everything was done, Zheng Mingyi suddenly wanted to leave the house and go out to have a look.

I haven't been to a place too far for a long time, I don't think about traveling, it's too expensive, and it's a waste of time, and this place in Fengcheng, Zheng Mingyi has lived here for three years, and he has basically been to the places he can go, and it seems that there is nothing he can go to.

The most important thing is that he stays at home for a long time, and although he occasionally chats with people at night, he still feels a little nervous at the thought of going to talk to someone face to face.

This is a common state of long-term social disconnection, Zheng Mingyi does not know much about his situation at this time, and after adapting to this comfort zone, he does not want to walk out of here immediately.

Still, life has to change a little.

And this change came from one of his neighbors.

Half a year ago, a mother and daughter moved across from Zheng Mingyi's house, the mother was in her thirties, and the child was only seven or eight years old, which was very cute.

When the mother and daughter just moved in, the mother knocked on the door of Zheng Mingyi's house and borrowed a few tools from him, and Zheng Mingyi also remembered this woman named Li Jie from that time.

Li Jie is not very beautiful, her figure is not very good, her hands are full of calluses, and her dress can only be said to be average, but I have to say that this Li Jie is a very good-looking woman, obviously not very good-looking, but if you look at it a few more times, it will feel completely different.

Li Jie's voice is very good, and the tone of her speech is also soft, no matter who she talks to, she is very polite and makes people feel very cordial.

At first, Zheng Mingyi didn't feel anything, he has lived here for a long time, almost three or four years, and the neighbors around him have changed several times, male, female, old, young, and I have seen a lot of people, but no one has ever given Zheng Mingyi this feeling.

It seemed to be a feeling of being in love, and I don't know when Zheng Mingyi began to want to hear Li Jie's voice.

Originally, it was enough to go to the supermarket once a week, but slowly, the frequency of going to the supermarket to buy things changed from once a week, to once a day, and then to once a day.

Every time I go to the supermarket, I will buy more candy, pretend to put it in my pocket casually, and when I meet the mother and daughter, I will be very embarrassed to chat with Li Jie, and then take out a lollipop from my pocket and give it to the little girl.

Every morning, I would get up a little earlier, and then wait, standing quietly at the door, waiting for the sound of the door lock turning, and then carefully looking outside through the cat's eye.

Later, it seemed that something like this might not be good, so Zheng Mingyi bought a camera like a door lamp on the Internet and quietly installed it outside the door.

Now, Zheng Mingyi can observe the situation outside the door through the camera anytime and anywhere, and he can see Li Jie every day, so he doesn't have to deal with the embarrassing communication scene, he is a person who is not good at communication.

After a month or two of such days, Zheng Mingyi has become accustomed to this kind of life, and the frequency of going to the supermarket has also returned to the original once a week, and occasionally Li Jie will knock on the door to ask for help, for this, of course Zheng Mingyi is happy.

However, in recent times, Zheng Mingyi has been very unhappy, the efficiency of his daily work has become a little low, and the quality of his work is not as good as before, and the works he has made have been found to have many shortcomings.

He wasn't in the right state, he felt it himself, but he couldn't help it.

Staring at the picture on the computer with his eyes, Zheng Mingyi's expression was very complicated, and now he could still see Li Jie entering and leaving the room every day through the camera outside the door, but his mood was very complicated.

Cause...

A week or two ago, that Li Jie actually brought a man home, and since then, that man has never come out of the house, at the same time, Li Jie's living status has not changed much, except that there are more things to buy than before, and the rhythm of life is still the same as before.

The only thing that has changed a lot is Li Jie's daughter, this originally lively little girl, seems to have suddenly become sick, sick all day long, she doesn't speak when she sees people, and even when she bumps into him by chance, she will subconsciously avoid it.

The affairs of Li Jie's family have nothing to do with Zheng Mingyi, but there is a cloud of anger in his heart, and he can't suppress it.

That man has been treated by Zheng Mingyi as a guy who eats soft rice, doesn't work, has a bad temper, and often beats and scolds Li Jie's mother and daughter, which can also explain why at the beginning, only Li Jie's mother and daughter came over.

He wanted to teach the other party a lesson, but there was no reason, and since that man entered Li Jie's house, he hadn't come out again, which made Zheng Mingyi unable to find a suitable opportunity.
