Looking at the scene outside the car window that quickly retreated, Lin Hai's thoughts were a little disordered, and many thoughts came and went, sometimes excited about the vision of the future, sometimes uneasy by unsolved confusion, and sometimes proud of the change of his identity, but this pride could not be said to people, and there was a bit of a brocade night walk.

But Lin Hai felt that his feeling of looking at the people around him was a little different, as if his unique aura had been irrepressibly exuding outward, and the superiority of the mortals in front of him was really good.

Thanks to the progress of modern science and technology, it has become easy for two people to meet in the crowd, relying on the positioning system, when Lin Hai walked out of the station briskly with a backpack, Ye Xuexin's car had just entered the temporary pick-up and drop-off area, and the cooperation was seamless.

Lin Hai did not rush to get into the car, but bent down to meet the rapidly sliding window, and Ye Xuexin's happy smile appeared in Lin Hai's eyes.

In an instant, Lin Hai was flashed by this smile, and a few clear shadows popped out of his mind inexplicably, it was the thin figure that ran away like a rabbit as soon as he saw him more than ten years ago, it was a silent figure lying on the back window with two lines of tears hanging on it, it was a vague figure that often appeared at the end of his line of sight on a college campus, and it was a warm figure that lingered with him for countless days and nights in the copy...

At this moment, many of these figures from memory and the inseparable copy of reality and fiction quietly overlapped with the face in front of him that was as clear as the sky and as warm as the morning sun, at this moment Ye Xuexin was no longer an existence that Lin Hai could not define, whether it was a copy or the real world, Ye Xuexin was Ye Xuexin, and there was no second Ye Xuexin in his heart.

At this moment, Lin Hai's heart was full of shame, he couldn't understand why he had doubts about such a pure woman in the previous copy? At that time, my head must have been flooded, or it was the sequelae of the crossing, in short, everything was caused by insects in my garden.

Ye Xuexin looked at Lin Hai's inadvertent dodging gaze with some suspicion, but Lin Hai quickly turned his gaze back, looked at Ye Xuexin with a smile and said seriously:

"I'm back."

Ye Xuexin's face immediately bloomed with a more beautiful smile:

"Well, get in the car, I'm hungry."

Lin Hai grinned, straightened up and walked quickly around the front of the car to open the door, threw the backpack over the back of the seat and threw it on the back seat, and got into the car as soon as he turned around, and by the way, he showed a smile to the driver who was a little anxious in the queue behind, and then closed the door hard.

"Let's go, let's eat."

The smile on Ye Xuexin's face never stopped, he tilted his head while driving, and glanced at Lin Hai quickly and seriously:

"What do you want to eat?"

"Hmm... Let's eat seafood noodles, and suddenly I want to eat something from my hometown. ”

"Okay, then let's go to the old taste."

Lin Hai looked at Ye Xuexin with a smile:

"No, go to Yunhai Road, of course these snacks have to be eaten in the fly restaurant to taste, so what, don't you mind?"

Ye Xuexin smiled and shook his head, on the contrary, Lin Hai's unrestrained attitude not only did not make Ye Xuexin dissatisfied, but made Ye Xuexin breathe a sigh of relief, the little inexplicable atmosphere between the two of them suddenly dissipated, Ye Xuexin didn't know what Lin Hai had experienced when he went out this time, but he felt that Lin Hai seemed to have let go of a big mountain in his heart, and the whole person became lively and clear, just like when he had just gone to college.

"You have a treat today, of course you have the final say, even if you invite me to the dinner box, I will admit it."

"Well, it's actually about the same as a lunch box, haha..."

Ye Xuexin smiled and said nothing, without Ye Xuexin asking, Lin Hai told Ye Xuexin about his affairs in the city, of course, the matter of the black cat and Lingjie must not be said.

Ye Xuexin was a little surprised by Lin Hai's thoughts, but it was not incomprehensible, after all, the pressure of urban people is heavy now, and everyone can be said to have psychological problems, but the degree is different, so Lin Hai went to seek the Tao In Ye Xuexin's opinion, he was looking for a way to release the pressure of the soul, which was no different from seeing a psychiatrist.

"It looks like it's working well."

Ye Xuexin looked sideways at Lin Hai again, and Lin Hai smiled and nodded:

"At least it solves the problem that has been bothering me all along."

"That's good, why would you think of going to the cultivators for advice?"

"Hehe, I originally planned to ask the monks, they have a deep study of the heart and soul."

Ye Xuexin looked scared:

"It's a good thing you didn't go to the monk."

Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, then understood what Ye Xuexin meant, and couldn't help laughing:

"Don't worry, even if you agree, my parents won't agree."

Ye Xuexin smiled:

"So you went to Sanqingguan?"

"Actually, it's because the incense in Qingling Temple in this city is too prosperous, and I heard that I have at least 50,000 sesame oil money for a vegetarian meal with the abbot, and I am poor."

Ye Xuexin glanced at Lin Hai:

"It's strange that I believe you."

Lin Hai propped one hand on the car window, staring at Ye Xuexin's side face with his head propped up, the sunlight outside the car shone on Ye Xuexin's face through the car window, making people feel that her fair cheeks were glowing, Lin Hai could see the extremely fine fluff on her face, as well as long and thick eyelashes, and the corners of her eyes full of smiles.

"All along, I've had a problem with my mentality..."

"Did it start when you were in college?"

Ye Xuexin interrupted Lin Hai's words, and asked with a little tangled face, Lin Hai knew what Ye Xuexin was worried about, and shook his head with a smile:

"No, you know, I didn't have any ambitions, so even if the elites of Fuda gathered, it wouldn't be too big a blow to me, a person with average qualifications, mainly because I didn't adjust after entering the society, okay, I always feel panicked, and it's boasting to say that Huaicai didn't meet, but it's actually a little self-pity."

"You can't say that, it's hard for you to work hard in this big city alone, plus bad luck, it's normal to be frustrated, as long as you adjust your mentality, you can always find your place."

Lin Hai waved his hand:

"Xuexin, you don't have to comfort me, I still have this bit of self-knowledge, character determines success or failure, I'm not ambitious, or simply timid, plus I refuse to put down my body to be with the light, failure is almost inevitable, do you know how I lost my first job?"

Ye Xuexin blurted out:

"That's your boss who framed you and scapegoated you."

As soon as Ye Xue's words came out, she realized that she had been exposed, and quickly smiled and said:

"Ah Nuan told me."

Lin Hai looked at Ye Xuexin with a smile:

"No matter who told you, in fact, that guy is looking for a scapegoat, why did he choose me? I'm afraid it's not just because I'm a foreigner and have no support, but more because I won't please him and didn't stand in line in time. In the final analysis, it is a matter of personality, ability, and attitude. ”

The smile on Ye Xuexin's face was put away, and she glanced at Lin Hai seriously and said:

"But Ah Hai, I don't want you to be as slick and sophisticated as those people."

But how can you change your status if you are not sophisticated? If you don't slippery, how can you avoid the crisis of finding your door? ”

Ye Xuexin turned her head again, and Lin Hai hurriedly pointed ahead:

"Look at the road, look at the road, this kind of thing is not in a hurry, let's discuss it slowly, besides, I also have my own conscience and bottom line."

Ye Xue thought for a while before she spoke:

"Ah Hai, in my opinion, success is not about having more money and status, but whether you can make yourself and the people around you happy, you say that others are smarter and more capable than you, in fact, in my opinion, it doesn't matter, even if they are, they are still mortals, whether they are standing on the top floor of the World Trade Tower, or standing on the corner of the street in the shadows, there is actually no difference inside."

Lin Hai smacked his lips and said:

"Philosophically, yes, but in reality, the guy standing on the corner actually wants to be on the top floor of the Mortal Tower, and the guy standing on the top floor is definitely not willing to go to the corner to sell mobile phone cases."

Ye Xuexin frowned, but Lin Hai smiled and said:

"Okay, actually, I know what you want to say, what I just said is the previous cognition, this time I went to Sanqingguan to take a turn, and my thoughts have changed."

Ye Xue glanced at Lin Hai angrily:

"It's fun to play me, isn't it?"

"Don't dare, don't dare, it's just that the words made you misunderstand, what you just said is right, money and status are undoubtedly foreign things, and it is indeed a bit low-level to pursue these with limited life, the Taoist priest of the Three Qingguan told me that what people need to live is the Great Dao, it is detachment, to look at the world, throughout time, across the eight wildernesses of the universe..."

"Stop, if you keep talking, you're going to fly, is the sea of stars fun?"

"Hehe, I don't know, I haven't had time to go yet."

"Clean nonsense, those Taoist priests are fooling you like this."

"Well, in fact, it is just for us to look at the world and ourselves from a higher level of vision, in general, the meaning of human life is not life itself, we have to find something meaningful for ourselves, such as making the people around us happy, let the world leave their own traces, and of course to explore the unknown, so I also figured it out, let's come back and do what we want to do, and walk the way we want to go. Well, that's about it. ”

Ye Xuexin narrowed her eyes, hooked the corners of her mouth and asked:

"And what do you want to do?"

"Of course, it's to make money to buy a house, marry a wife and have children."

Ye Xuexin's face suddenly turned red, and she quickly glanced at Lin Hai and said:

"Who, who's going to have a baby with you."

"Hey, I didn't say it was you, don't sit down!"

"Huh?! It's not me, who else?! You give me an honest account! ”

The two laughed for a while, as if they had returned to their teenage years, and the atmosphere in the carriage became more and more warm and ambiguous, fortunately in broad daylight, otherwise the two would not know what to do.

"Well, Ah Hai, there's something I want to discuss with you..."

Ye Xuexin pursed her lips, and finally remembered what was going on, Lin Hai nodded and said:

"What's so solemn, it can't be to introduce me to work, right? I've actually got a new job, and I'll report tomorrow. ”

"Oh? What kind of work? ”

"Publishing editor of the city branch of Tianhai Publishing House."

"Tianhai Press, that's good."

"Well, a friend introduced me with an annual salary of 100,000 yuan, plus a sales commission."

Ye Xuexin congratulated with a happy face, and then shook her head and said:

"I'm not talking about work, it's... It's my mom, I didn't tell her about you, so..."

Lin Hai's face turned pale:

"Isn't it, you're going to see your parents so soon?"

Ye Xuexin glanced at Lin Hai:

"What, scared? That's all you have to offer? ”

"Hey, don't say it so easily, okay, see the future mother-in-law, this is one of the three major difficulties in life!"

Ye Xuexin's focus may be a little biased, her cheeks are slightly red, and she is a little shy:

"You don't fool me, the three major difficulties in life are what to eat in the morning, what to eat at noon and what to eat at night."

Lin Hai laughed:

"Hey, don't we live on the same earth? Ha ha... Okay, don't stare at me, just go, didn't they all say it at the time, the nominal boyfriend is also a boyfriend, ahaha, haha. ”

Ye Xuexin pursed her lips and smiled proudly:

"Okay, I'll be free this Friday night and go to my house for dinner."

Lin Hai sighed and nodded with an exaggerated wry smile.
