In this world, there are only two kinds of people. Successful people and unsuccessful people. Different eras have given different definitions of success. In the past, success probably meant that a certain person achieved the expected results in a certain field and had a certain influence on a certain group, which was a successful person.

For example, Leo Tolstoy became famous for his "War and Peace", Albert Einstein attracted the world's attention because of his theory of relativity, Marilyn Monroe was coveted for his sexiness, and Michael Jackson became popular all over the world because of his unique pop dance moves. And these people have one thing in common: they all have noble personalities and thoughts!

And today, in the new era of the 21st century, there is only one definition of success, and that is to be rich! With the improvement of material level, people's pursuit of material is far greater than spiritual pursuit. This is an era of rampant materialism, which infinitely magnifies the dark side of human nature and infinitely expands people's selfish desires.

In this era, the standard for measuring a person is to see whether the person is rich, even if the person is a personal scumbag, there are also groups of followers behind him, of course, they can also swear and shout, I am fighting for ideals, I am fighting for freedom, I am pursuing for love.

Wu Zhiyuan simply packed his luggage and hurriedly got into the car, as if he wanted to escape from the city. He is not a successful person, so naturally there is no one to say goodbye to, so there is no sadness when parting. He wasn't a loser either, because there were at least two more people who wanted him back, a woman as gentle as jade, and an innocent little girl. Thinking of this, Wu Zhiyuan's lonely heart suddenly became active, and he found his seat.

The train slowly left Ancheng and entered the vast night, Wu Zhiyuan looked at the lonely night, listened to the sound of the wind, the window and door were closed, maybe what he heard was not the sound of the wind, but two voices flowed in his heart like a warm current, soft and poignant, he found that the original world was still so moving.

The train to Chengdu suddenly accelerated, and the silhouette of Anseong moved away with the train. On the night of May, Wu Zhiyuan actually felt a trace of autumn, a little reluctant, a little depressed. Perhaps, autumn has nothing to do with the wind and moon, nothing to do with the season, just because of the little chill in the tear!

Wu Zhiyuan looked at the mountains flashing outside the window, dark and distant, and he gradually fell into memory......

He still remembers that when his mother was sick and angry, his father had not yet come home. When the father arrived home happily with a lot of money in his pocket, the mother had already returned for nine days. And the only thing he could do was clench his fists, and he was only seven years old at that time! Since then, the relationship between father and son has not been good. Until middle school, he rarely went home, and he didn't spend a penny of his father's money, working and going to school at the same time.

After college, the father-son relationship eased slightly. In his four years of college, he only fell in love once, and it ended without a problem. She told him that she liked him, liked him playing guitar, liked the poems he wrote to her, and liked the way he was serious about doing things. It's nice to be with him, but she's not going to marry him. Because, he is too poor, has no money, and is destined to have no future. Since then, Wu Zhiyuan has worked harder, has no distractions, and is ready to go home to see his father after graduation, as well as Aunt Mei who has never met and whose father often talks about it......

Wu Zhiyuan never thought that his father would kill someone!

"Big brother, can you help me make instant noodles? I'm hungry, Mom and Dad are asleep, ignore me! A little girl of seven or eight years old, blinking her big eyes, gently shook Wu Zhiyuan's arm, and said pitifully.

Wu Zhiyuan came back to his senses from his memories and looked at the little girl's hand, and sure enough, a pair of young men and women were leaning on each other and were already asleep. Seeing the little girl blinking her eyes, he remembered Xiao Jiajia: Big brother, help me peel apples! At this time, I lost my mind again.

"Big brother!" The girl shook his arm again.

"Good! I can help you, but eating instant noodles is not good! Wu Zhiyuan gently pinched her little face, smiled and said, "Big brother, there are apples here, do you want to eat them?" ”

"Okay! Okay! She said cheerfully.

Wu Zhiyuan took out the folding knife from his arms, quickly peeled an apple, divided it into several petals, and then gave it to the little girl, at this time he looked at her, overlapping with Jiajia's appearance, Wu Zhiyuan smiled unconsciously.

"It's so sweet, thank you, brother, it's much better than instant noodles, and the whole carriage is full of instant noodles." The little girl muttered.

"Do you want more?" Wu Zhiyuan asked.

"Still! Still! She cheered.

"Good!" Wu Zhiyuan smiled even more, and peeled another apple for her, "After eating, sleep obediently, okay?" ”

"I have nowhere to sleep! Abba and Grandma's places are all occupied. She said with a wink of bright eyes as she bit down on an apple.

Wu Zhiyuan glanced at her parents, and sure enough, it was true. The carriage was full, and he had a vacant seat here, and he hadn't slept yet, so it was no wonder that the little girl would ask him to help make noodles.

"Are you afraid of me?" Wu Zhiyuan pointed to his left cheek and said.

"Don't be afraid, my brother will help me peel apples, my brother is a good person!"

"I still have a spot here, so sleep with me, okay? Go to bed early and wake up early, and tomorrow will be beautiful! ”

"Okay!" The little girl's giggling echoed throughout the carriage.

Wu Zhiyuan watched her finish eating, gently hugged her and lay down, resting his head on his bag, and then took off his coat and covered her.

"It would be nice if I didn't grow up!" Wu Zhiyuan watched the little girl fall asleep deeply, a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, Wu Zhiyuan couldn't help but think.

The night was thick, and from time to time the sound of the train captain whistled to break the silence of the night. Wu Zhiyuan looked at the little girl, his heart calmed down, his eyelids sank slightly, and he gradually fell asleep......

Beichuan, Chen Xi got up very early today. She slept soundly last night, probably tired. After eating last night, her aunt dragged her to dance Sharon, a unique dance of the Qiang people, which was very lively and brisk. Chen Xi didn't know how to do it, but her aunt took her hand, and she jumped happily with her aunt. When she got home, she and her aunt kept chatting, and then fell asleep.

Chen Xi walked to the dresser and put on her costume, which was the Yi family's costume. She hasn't worn it for a long time, if Su Xiaoying hadn't mentioned it and gave her a set, she came to her aunt's house yesterday and brought a set with her, this beautiful set of clothes, I'm afraid it can only be sealed in the wardrobe for a while. She wore a blue-and-white plaid handkerchief on her head, silver earrings, and a blue-black dress with lace embroidery between the corners of her cuffs.

She was neatly dressed and turned around in front of the mirror, and for a while, a slender and delicate figure appeared in the mirror, and the whole room was suddenly full of vitality.

What a beautiful and moving girl from the Yi family.

Chen Xi sat down, picked up the paintbrush, and finally gave himself a thrush. Juanxiu's little hands moved lightly, and a pair of beautiful eyebrows appeared in front of the mirror, like willows and the moon, especially the eyes under the willow moon, like the stars under the moon, shining. Chen Xi looked at himself in the mirror, as if he was cheering himself up, smiling, if it was night, hundreds of millions of stars would also be eclipsed.

What a beautiful and refined girl from the Yi family!

Chen Xi opened the door of her parents' room, they were still asleep, she sighed, maybe she didn't sleep well last night, and she was tired and tired yesterday. She went back to her room, and by this time her aunt had already gotten up and saw her come in and looked at her with a smile.

"Yo! It's beautiful! Chen Rong looked around her and said.

"I haven't worn it for many years, yesterday I saw my aunt wearing the clothes of the Qiang family, it's so beautiful, I'll clean it up today." Chen Xi lowered his head and said shyly.

"Not bad! Not bad! In a few years, you can get married. Chen Rong is still commenting.

"Auntie! Ignore you! Chen Xi stomped her feet, like a coquette, she has always been a very cold image, maybe only in front of her aunt.

"Yo yo yo! And shy. Chen Rongjiao smiled, "Okay, I won't tease you, why did you get up so early!" ”

"I'll get up and read for a while, and then I'll go to register my mother!" Chen Xi said softly.

"Hmmm! Well, don't be too anxious, there shouldn't be many people today, Monday. Chen Rong said while changing clothes, "Have some breakfast, you know?" ”

"Hmmm! Good! Auntie, are you leaving? Why don't you eat breakfast! Chen Xi asked.

"I don't eat it, the first class is mine, just buy some food on the way to school." Chen Rong was already dressed.

"Oh! Then I'll read the book first. Chen Xi held a book in his hand, walked to the balcony, pulled a stool and sat down. Chen Rong looked at her and smiled lovingly.

Chen Xi quietly opened a book, this is Tolstoy's "Anna Karenina", Chen Xi has read it many times, and is deeply fascinated by it. Chen Xi just doesn't understand why Anna wants to marry a hypocritical and old-fashioned husband since she pursues romantic love, and then abandons her husband and children and elopes away for an indifferent and selfish lover. When he saw Anna lose her soul and commit suicide at the station, Chen Xi was stunned again. Is this due to the social system, or is everyone around you cold-blooded? A woman who is like a flower and jade is so fragrant and jade, which is somewhat regrettable.

Chen Xi thought of himself again, if it was himself, what should he do? Thinking about it, I couldn't help but exclaim: "Hospital! I forgot to go to the hospital! I haven't registered my mother yet! ”

Chen Xi looked at the time, it was already more than nine o'clock at this time, and he didn't know when his aunt would leave.

Chen Xi hurriedly got up and opened the door of his parents' room, they had been up for a long time, but they saw that Chen Xi had been reading and couldn't bear to disturb her.

"Dad, you make breakfast for Mom, I'll go to the hospital, I'll notify you to come over when the registration is ready." Chen Xi said to his father.

"Okay, don't be in a hurry, stay safe!" The parents smiled.

Chen Xi glanced at them and walked towards the hospital. Today is gloomy, and God seems to be putting on a face. Dragonflies fluttered all over the sky, densely packed, and made a buzzing sound, as if they were shouting something. But this voice was ignored by others, and it seemed that only Chen Xi heard it.

The wind was very strong, hitting Chen Xi's face, and her face was flushed. Chen Xi suddenly felt an inexplicable throbbing in her heart, and she was very uneasy. The car passed back and forth in front of her, kicking up a cloud of dust, and she stood on the side of the street, unable to get a taxi. Helpless, she cheered up and rushed towards the hospital with small steps.

When Chen Xi arrived at the hospital, it was already past ten o'clock, and there was a long queue. She had no choice but to follow the long queue of people and stand behind, the hospital registration hall was very noisy, and Chen Xi couldn't help but feel irritable. She picked up the copy of "Anna Karenina" again, and read it demurely in the crowd. After a long time, it was about to reach her, and when there were only two people in front of her, there was a click at the registration window, and the stiff and indifferent voice of the staff came from inside: "It's twelve o'clock, rest and eat, and come back at one o'clock!"

Chen Xixiu frowned, put the book away, and didn't say anything. It was a big man in front of her, shouting: "What's this called, just turn it off, the problem is that it's not twelve o'clock, and it's still ten minutes away."

"If you're not satisfied, you can complain to me, there's a box over there!" An indifferent voice came from the window again, and then said loudly, "Come again at one o'clock!" ”

"You!" The big man was dumbfounded! Chen Xi pulled the corner of his clothes behind him: "Uncle, forget it, I can't talk about them."

"They have seen too many dead people, and their blood has become cold, and it doesn't make sense to be reasonable." A woman behind Chen Xi said.

But there was no sound from the window, and there were two or three young men in white coats, talking and laughing from the side of the long crowd, their men looked gentle and elegant, and the women were intellectually generous. They glanced down at the long line of people, their eyes cold, as if they were looking at the dead.

The window was always closed, and there was no movement, and it seemed to the people that it was stronger than a wartime bunker, and it was as arrogant as a rock, ignoring the anxious gaze of the crowd.

Chen Xi listened to the discussion of the crowd, silently took the book, and read it quietly......

Time passed slowly, as if a century had passed, and that window finally opened. Chen Xi finally registered, and at this time, it was already past two o'clock. She picked up her phone and called her parents, but no one answered. Her parents didn't use a mobile phone, she called her aunt's living room, but she called several times in a row, but no one answered.

Chen Xi's uneasiness became stronger and stronger, and she couldn't find a reason and walked out of the hospital gate. At this moment, the sky was dark, the dark clouds were rolling, there were more dragonflies, and they kept spinning in the sky, and even the rats that were hiding in the corners of the gutter were now all over the streets. Chen Xi called her aunt's mobile phone, but no one answered, so she resolutely rushed home......

Chen Xi was very flustered at this time, and the throbbing in her heart became stronger and stronger, as if her heart was about to be torn apart. She ran wildly, hoping to get home as soon as possible.

"Boom!" A loud bang, I don't know if it came from the sky or from the ground, it was deafening! Chen Xi felt a little dizzy and staggered and ran.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The sky is cracking, the sky is shaking! The mountains in the distance were trampled, the earth cracked, and the buildings on the street crumbled, and then with a bang, they collapsed suddenly! There was chaos in the streets, the neighing of cars, the cries of the crowd, and the sound of the earth tearing apart!

"Nope! Father! Mother! Aunt! Chen Xi shouted, heartbreaking, because she saw that in the direction of her aunt's house, the building was collapsing, and the earth was torn into ravines, crisscrossing and crisscrossing.

She ran and shouted, but the rumble soon drowned out her voice. Suddenly the ground shook, she fell, her hands were worn out, the lace dress was also worn out, she gritted her teeth, struggled to get up, and continued to run in the direction of home, at this moment, she just wanted to go back to her parents! From time to time, there were screams and cries mixed in my ears, like a lament for the end times!

"Bang!" A wooden pillar smashed on Chen Xi's calf, and a sharp pain came, she didn't realize it at all, she just wanted to go home at the moment. She wanted to push the pillar away, but she couldn't, she wanted to crawl hard, but she couldn't! The ground was shaking, shaking, and she was desperate, tears streaming down her face.

"Bang!" A wide wooden board smashed on the back of her head! The house beside her collapsed, and her petite body disappeared in an instant. The whole world suddenly fell silent, and Chen Xi fell into darkness. In the darkness, she seemed to see her aunt's earnest and instructive gaze, as well as the loving smiling faces of her parents......
