In the blink of an eye, half of January has passed, Chinese New Year's Eve is approaching, and the end of the year is already expected.

Yangcheng is a standard southern city, although in the minds of most people, Yangcheng such a subtropical coastal city, the climate should be four seasons like spring, warm in winter and cool in summer, but obviously, this is not the case, the climate in Yangcheng winter has always been very bad, although Yangcheng does not snow in winter, but the wet and cold weather is more torturous than snow, the snow wind in the north is cold on the surface, and the winter in Yangcheng is cold in the bones. That kind of cold is a kind of cold that penetrates the heart and pierces the bone marrow.

This year is no exception......

However, even if the weather is cold and windy, people still have to go out and run for a living.

Day after day, year after year, they walk the cold streets, squeeze into the crowded subway, step into the numb and indifferent office, do the repetitive chores all day, and then drag their exhausted bodies back home, in front of a cold screen to exhaust the last of their energy......

And the next day, it was all over again.

This is the truest face of life – hard, bitter, but people still have to endure; This patience is not only for survival, but also for the sake of the little moments of happiness in life.

On the morning of January 18, Yangcheng, on a main street in Cotton Tree Village.

Gu Yan was wearing a dark black sweatshirt, covering his head with a hat, walking slowly on the road, on both sides of him, crowds of people came and went, everyone seemed to be desperately chasing time, running for the constant fatigue of life.

He used his spare eyes to constantly scan the various figures passing by him, his face expressionless, just tightened the trench coat on his body, as if he felt a little cold.

Walking slowly, for a moment, Gu Yan stopped in front of a breakfast shop.

This is a private breakfast shop with a commercial and residential complex, with a business store on the first floor and a residential area on the second floor. The decoration of the breakfast shop is very simple, there are no signboards, and the hygiene situation is not good, with Gu Yan's non-human eyes, he can see that the tables, chairs, floors, and even food in the whole store are full of countless bacteria, this is a standard unlicensed store, but it is normal, in the urban village, there are many similar shops, under normal circumstances, no one will come to check.

Although there are not many customers in the breakfast shop, it cannot be said that there are few, because most customers do not stay in the store to eat breakfast, usually just pack, and then rush to catch the subway or bus while eating on the road.

Gu Yan stayed at the breakfast door for a while, then opened the curtain of the door, walked in, and found a place to sit down.

As soon as he walked into the store, he only felt that the surroundings were warm, and the cold and windy street and the warm and comfortable store were like two worlds, although for Gu Yan, who had now stepped into the inhuman realm, this cold wind or this warmth was meaningless at all, because his body surface had always been covered with an invisible force field, which would resist any temperature or damage from the outside world, and even if he wasn't afraid of attracting attention, he could go out directly in a short-sleeved shirt, without wearing a sweatshirt at all.

"Good morning, what would you like to eat?"

As soon as Gu Yan sat down, a figure full of youthful atmosphere walked towards him and handed him a menu.

He took the menu with one hand, lifted the hat from his head with the other, and looked up at the passer, and saw a cute girl wearing a sweatshirt and a single ponytail. She was the female student named Lin Shitong that Gu Yan knew when he lived here before.

This breakfast shop was opened by her family, and Gu Yan used to come here often, but since he created his own clone in reality and let him live in the real world instead of himself, he has never come here for breakfast again, and this time it has been almost half a year since he last came.

"Sir, have you thought of what you would like to eat?" Lin Shitong saw that Gu Yan hadn't placed an order for a long time, and urged a little impatiently.

"Excuse me, soon, soon."

Hearing this, Gu Yan chuckled, didn't care, and apologized softly.

"Huh! Little girl, I think you are still a student, why don't you have to go to school today? Gu Yan asked curiously when he was looking through the menu.

As soon as the words fell, Gu Yan saw Lin Shitong looking at him with a strange look, as if he was very surprised.

"What's wrong? You look at me like this, do I have something stuck in my face? Gu Yan wiped his face with a look of confusion.

"I said, uncle, don't you really know or are you pretending to be stupid, don't you know what time it is? It's January! School is out for the holidays, and half of the winter vacation is over, so what are you going to school? I've taken it all. Lin Shitong shook his head and said in surprise.

"Ahh Is it? It's winter vacation, and I've been so busy lately that I have forgotten the time. Gu Yan smiled awkwardly, and then casually ordered a porridge with preserved eggs and lean pork, and a plate of steamed pork noodles.

Lin Shitong quickly wrote down the list, then took the menu away very skillfully, and walked to another new customer to place an order for him.

Gu Yan looked at Lin Shitong's figure that left neatly and shook his head secretly. Half a year has passed, and he still has an impression of this Lin Shitong, but this Lin Shitong has obviously completely forgotten Gu Yan.

It didn't take long for the food he ordered to be ready and served.

"It's almost halfway through the winter holidays! Time flies really fast, and I stay in the imaginary space for a while, and I forget a little about the time in the real world. ”

While eating, Gu Yan generally looked at the wall calendar hanging on the wall, and the numbers representing the date on it kept beating and emerging in his mind.

"It's still the same taste."

Savoring the food and feeling the familiar taste on his tongue, Gu Yan's originally somewhat lost heart was filled with a trace of joy, Gu Yan himself had forgotten how many days he hadn't eaten, and since he got rid of his body's dependence on life nutrients, he had never eaten a little food.

This is obviously just a very ordinary roadside stall breakfast, and it is unhygienic, covered with all kinds of bacteria, but Gu Yan just thinks it is delicious, because on this breakfast, he once again regained the feeling of being an ordinary person.

At this moment, he no longer pays attention to the main god space, no longer pays attention to the dynamics of the reincarnation, no longer thinks about the fantasy world, he just wants to enjoy this breakfast that is not delicious and very ordinary.

Enjoy the 'ordinary' of the moment.
