In a parallel world, a news truck from the Jiangzhou Provincial Television Station in Huaguo slowly drove into a small village in Huyang County.

"Sister Li, I heard that the subject of our interview was a star before?" Cameraman Xiao Liu turned his head to look at a short-haired beauty in a professional OL outfit and asked.

"I don't know, I'm not sure if it's him." Li Yan looked at the muddy path floating outside the window.

A high-spirited young man loomed in his mind.

His song "Mice Love Rice" swept the major music charts in China, and a "Breaking the Sky" made him a top celebrity in the online literature industry in one fell swoop.

That year, he was only sixteen years old, and Li Yan, a high school classmate, like all girls, admired that teenager very much. With his talent, the future is sure to be a lifetime of glory.

But more than ten years have passed, and a generation of young stars has degenerated into a member of the local gnawing old clan.

"Is that you? Lin Fan? ”

Huyang County, Xiaohe Village.

A path passes through a house with a yellow-colored structure, turns left at the end of a hundred meters, and walks dozens of steps into a three-story cement house.

Third floor.

"Rebel! Get the hell out of here! A gray-haired old man smashed open the bedroom door with a hoe, lifted the quilt in a hurry, and yelled angrily at a young man who was curled up.

The young man turned over, pulled the quilt back and said, "Dad, don't make trouble, I hurt!" ”

"It hurts!? Hurt!? I've been to this hospital more than 100 times, and the doctors haven't found anything wrong, so how long do you have to lie to yourself!? The old man was so angry that he dropped his hoe.

He glanced at the CD of "Breaking the Sky" and "Mice Love Rice" on the bedside table, picked it up and fell to the ground angrily.

"Sleep, sleep, how long are you going to sleep, the passion you had to write books back then? What about your singing skills? ”

"Okay, you can't write, you can't sing, Dad doesn't blame you, but you've been studying for a PhD for nine years, and you haven't graduated yet."

"It doesn't matter if you really can't get it, you can get a good job as a graduate student, but now it's okay if you're lying in bed all day!"

Lin Zhonghua tore "Breaking the Sky" to shreds, not noticing the tears left by the young man on the bed.

"Dad, if I made money from my books in those years and saved money, it would be enough for our family to live, right? I don't have a place to be sorry for home. ”

Lin Fan said slowly, and now every time he said a word, his body had to bear pain. This pain has been endured for ten years, but the secret can only be borne silently by one person.

Lin Zhonghua will pause every time he hears Lin Fan's words, he recalled the scene that shocked him after Lin Fan came back with a big bag of cash, that year, the village party secretary invited him to dinner, the township chief praised him for giving birth to a good son, the mayor's daughter came to call him uncle, and the female star came to pay New Year's greetings, that year, he was only sixteen years old.

What glory and splendor.

He walked in the village and saw everyone's envy and jealousy from the bottom of his heart, and the whole person was more domineering than the township chief.

The daughter's marriage was also finalized, and she reluctantly engaged a baby kiss with the township chief's child.

The ten suites in the county, the three suites in the city, and the seven-figure deposit in the deposit were all brought by his son in those years.

Even if Lin Fan is now sitting and waiting for death to work, the Lin family is also the richest man in the village.

Therefore, Lin Zhonghua was silent.

He looked at the stubborn Lin Fan and felt deep fatigue. He said in a relaxed tone: "I don't want you to make money, you have done enough for your family, I hope you can stand up well and do what you should do at your age." Daddy doesn't read much, and he doesn't know how to talk about big truths, and some words are too heavy, I hope you don't take it to heart. ”

Lin Zhonghua squatted down and cleaned up the paper on the ground and walked out, leaving Lin Fan in a daze on the bed.

"Am I doing something wrong?"

"No, it's because I love you that I did it."

Lin Fan flashed with tears.

Reborn in a parallel world, an orphan in a previous life, integrated into this society for decades in this life, cherishes his family in this life very much, and really doesn't want to do anything to hurt this world.

After a while, Mother Lin quietly pushed open the door, looked at the sleeping older youth, and hugged him distressedly.

"Mom, what's the matter?" Lin Fan smiled reluctantly, looking at his mother, whose face was wrinkled because of his affairs, and felt pain in his heart.

"Afan, your father doesn't understand you, it doesn't matter, Mom believes in you and believes that you must have your own difficulties."

"Even if you don't work and lie down for the rest of your life, our family's money is enough to support you."

"Come, our family has a guest today, promise Mom, go down to meet the guest."

Under the tolerance of Mother Lin's love, Lin Fan sparsely dressed and looked at the decadent face in the mirror, and the long hair that covered his shoulders had not been combed for a long time and became messy.

Wearing a SpongeBob SquarePants and a gray tank top, I followed my mother downstairs.

There were already five people sitting in the living room.

Lin Zhonghua was chatting with a few guests.

Seeing Lin Fan coming down, Lin Zhonghua's eyes were overjoyed, his son was decadent, this marriage event had to be done.

"Alas, come down, Afan, come and see your uncle."

Liu Xiong glanced at Lin Fan, the shape of killing Matt fell a little bit in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that the Lin family had some property, he estimated that he would immediately leave with his daughter.

His daughter Liu Sisi also looked at Lin Fan, and she complained infinitely in her heart.

"I'll go, is this really a star from ten years ago?"

Her mother on the side of her was not so prejudiced, she considered that the production capacity of the ten houses in this sub-county town could not be divided into two parts.

"Oh, this is Afan, it's really handsome and extraordinary." The one who spoke was an old mother standing on the edge, and the matchmaker always praised people.

Lin Fan nodded, sat in his position silently and drank tea.

"Ah, Afan's temperament is like this, Brother Liu, don't be surprised." Lin Zhonghua smiled and ushered Liu Xiong's family to the seat.

"Well, it's okay, I'm prepared for this." Liu Xiong naturally knew that this child had a problem with his brain, otherwise it would not be their turn to go on a blind date with a family like theirs.

Ten years ago, the mayor's daughter couldn't even want to set foot in this house, but now it has become this scene.

"Lao Liu, I think Sisi and Ah Fan are quite suitable, right?"

"Ah, this is not in a hurry, Brother Lin, my Sisi is still young, only twenty-eight years old, graduated from Zhonghai University with a master's degree, and now has a monthly salary of more than 10,000 yuan, a stable job, and we can't control this kind of thing as marriage." Liu Xiong calmly avoided Father Lin and secretly increased the value of his daughter.

Hearing this, Lin Mu was unhappy.

Co-authored my son's conditions are worse than your daughter's?

So he interjected: "Well, our family Afan graduated from the University of Science and Technology of China with a master's degree and is studying for a doctorate, and his savings exceeded seven figures ten years ago, I can't think of how many girls with such an excellent child are not impressed." ”

Lin Fan looked up at his arrogant mother, his nose was a little sour.

"Oh, heartbeat, why not heartbeat?" Mother Liu smiled and took Mother Lin's hand.

"Sister Lin, let's go out and have a good chat, let the children's affairs be decided by themselves."

After giving her daughter Liu Sisi a look, she pulled Mother Lin and left.

The two fathers on the seat also chose to be silent, or the old mother pushed the two young people out, which was called to enhance communication.

At the edge of the flowing water in Xiaohe Village, two young people walked slowly.

Liu Sisi stepped on white high heels, frowned on the white skirt, and looked back at the lazy-looking older youth.

couldn't help but say: "Hey, are you really the top god edamame who wrote "Breaking the Sky" back then?" ”

Lin Fan shook his head, it doesn't matter to him whether it is or not, Dou Po is a feeling, not a tool to show off.

"What are you shaking your head for? I also liked the song "Mice Love Rice", and I was quite excited when I found out that the blind date was you. ”

"Well, and then what?" Lin Fan said lightly.

"And then? And then it's not bad to marry an outdated star and a local tyrant, I'm twenty-eight years old, but my bride price must satisfy my parents, otherwise I won't marry. ”

"In addition, you must sign an agreement before marriage, and you must work after marriage, whether you are writing or singing, in short, give me money to earn milk powder, and finally, cut my hair normally."

Liu Sisi said like a cannon, this high-quality and good-looking girl did not arouse Lin Fan's disgust when she said these words, the girl was very beautiful and spoke normally, but he was destined to not be able to share a channel with her.

He quietly left.

"Do you agree?" Liu Sisi looked back and was stunned, and then became angry.

When Liu Sisi returned to the Lin family's courtyard with her face suffocated, she saw her parents rushing out in a hurry to frame her.

"Let's go! Let's go back to the county seat. ”

"Ah, what's wrong?"

"Wengui, do you remember, it's terrible now, hurry up, we can't push you to the fire pit here."

Saying that, the two ignored Lin Zhonghua and Lin Mu, who were iron-blue in the hall, and rushed away without saying hello.

The matchmaker also left embarrassedly.

Lin Fan, who was watching all this from the window on the third floor, clenched his fists.

"Dad, Mom, drink tea and don't be angry about such a trivial matter." Lin Fan went downstairs and offered a cup of tea to his parents who were in a daze.

After Father Lin took it, he sighed and said: "Their family wants two houses, you can give them it, Sisi, this girl is not bad, it suits you, it's a pity, but don't worry, let your mother continue to look for you in a few days." ”

"Yes, don't worry, just rest at home these days, Mom will definitely find you a good daughter, and you will be sensible if you have a wife and children." Lin Mu also agreed.

Lin Fan didn't say anything, and he didn't resist his parents' blind date arrangement, which was something he could do very little at present.

Night, twelve o'clock.

Lin Fan gritted his teeth and trembled.

The pain of distance spread from the toes to the top of the head, and the cells of the whole body twitched under some mysterious force. He pulled out a wooden board from under his pillow, and the board was covered with dense embossing.

He took a bite and waited for the next wave of pain to come.

The dull sound of breathing and pain pierced the noise of the night.

And it's been almost ten years since such days.
