02. Fall
Fortunately, there was no quarrel this time, it just seemed to ...... The result is more serious. Zhou Chu looked at the mobile phone on the side and smiled helplessly.
This unexpected resignation led to Xia Jing's disappointment and the unhappiness between the two, which was actually expected by Zhou Chu, and he also knew that Xia Jing was for his good, but he really didn't know how to explain it. There are some things that can't be explained, and if you say them, you will only be treated as stressed and mentally weak.
Zhou Chu always seems to be not very good at saying the truest thoughts in his heart, even the original choice is the same, staying in this city, just to be able to wait for Xia Jing to graduate, choose a small company, just to be able to exercise his ability to be independent, and learn more things, such as professional accidents and miscellaneous affairs, such as pressure and others, etc., but these, Zhou Chu feels that it is useless to say it, but it will only make Xia Jing feel pressure or heaviness, the choice is to do it yourself, just bear it yourself, So in the past two years, Zhou Chu has allowed others to misunderstand and speculate about his original choice.
And this unexpected resignation, even if it can actually be explained, Zhou Chu most of them feel that they can't say it, and would rather be thought that they can't hold it anymore and give up on themselves, or lose confidence and plan to give up everything at present. It's as if he has been in that company for the past two years, no matter how difficult and scolded the fat man is, how he piles up countless mountains of work to him, he takes it without saying a word, like a sponge frantically absorbing all professional knowledge and work experience, just waiting to seize the best opportunity and then change jobs.
On that day, what he did, Xia Jing would understand, even if he didn't understand, or it was too late, it didn't matter, he just hoped that in the end, as long as Xia Jing could live the life she wanted, it would be enough, sometimes Zhou Chu had such a vague idea in his heart.
But before the opportunity arrived, something else happened......
Want to do so much? When Zhou Chu came back to his senses, the sun outside the window was already a little skewed, and the light in the room was also a little dim.
It's going to be night, Zhou Chu looked around, and suddenly felt a little frightened, but if he wasn't at home, where could he go?
It was just a while, Zhou Chu made a decision, he made a phone call to his best friend Ou Cheng, regardless of Ou Cheng on the other end of the phone pretending to be surprised, and dropped a sentence directly.
"Seven o'clock in the evening, TOP, see you or leave."
TOP, the top master Internet café, is located in the most prosperous area of the university town Internet café, the configuration and environment here are among the best in the university town, when Zhou Chu was still young and studying, he had a period of time, and his friends mixed here day and night, almost every man in the young and still a student, have had this or similar experience, it was a period of high-spirited and decadent wasted time, until Zhou Chu met Qin Jing after this kind of life was announced.
It's just that I didn't expect that one day, I would come back here in such a way, Zhou Chu stood at the door, smoking a cigarette, waiting for Oucheng.
Looking at the students coming and going on the commercial street, those energetic and carefree faces, Zhou Chu suddenly felt that he seemed to be a little old, not age, but mentality, it seemed that it was difficult for him to live carefree or even carefree like these students.
"What do you think?" A hand passed over Zhou Chu's shoulder from behind the affectionate back, and a somewhat frivolous, but magnetic baritone came.
"I didn't think about anything, I just felt a little old." Zhou Chu took Ou Cheng's hand away, not that he was not used to this way of being too affectionate, but it was a little hot, and then turned around and looked at the dead friend in front of him. …,
I haven't seen him for almost three months, but this guy seems to always be this hanging, plus a handsome face that kills people and doesn't pay for his life, just when he saw Ou Cheng standing, Zhou Chu asked a little strangely.
"Where's your Ferrari?"
"I took a taxi." Ou Cheng shrugged, "It's just to play games, and it's not a pickle girl, so what do you do, I'll be killed by the eyes." ”
Unlike Zhou Chu, who is not a local and a general family background, Oucheng is now said on the Internet, an out-and-out rich second generation, young, golden, with an annual income of nearly 10 million, and also has a handsome face and talent in architectural design.
Also, Zhou Chu smiled, and then walked into the Internet café with Ou Cheng.
Zhou Chu and Ou Cheng are both veteran Warcraft players and DOTA players, but recently Ou Cheng has become obsessed with a battle game called League of Legends, and Zhou Chu, who used to be more than 1800 on the Dota game ladder, naturally got started quickly, and the two of them quickly invested in it.
Time passed quickly, and it was almost zero o'clock when Ou Cheng suddenly remembered something, and while manipulating the characters in the game, he turned his head and asked Zhou Chu.
"I remember tomorrow wasn't the weekend."
"Well, it's not."
"So you're not going to work tomorrow? Not going back tonight? Ou Cheng asked his doubts, Zhou Chu has rarely contacted them in the past two years, most of the time is working day and night and working overtime, even if he occasionally comes out to have a meal and chat, he will say goodbye to everyone at about eleven o'clock, but today, it seems that the sun is not setting from the west, it seems that it is past zero o'clock, Zhou Chu has not even had the idea of getting up, you must know that this is far from where Zhou Chu lives, if you take a taxi, it will be at least half an hour away.
"I resigned." Zhou Chu continued to stare at the screen, but casually threw out an answer that made Ou Cheng stunned.
"What?!" Ou Cheng simply stopped his operation and turned to look at Zhou Chu.
"Let's finish first." Zhou Chu was still staring at the screen, "If you lose, you will die." ”
I don't know why, since the day they met, Ou Cheng, who was not scared of anyone, was scared of Zhou Chu, so when he heard this, Ou Cheng could only turn his head and continue the game, but he was always a little absent-minded. After the word victory finally appeared on the computer screen, Ou Cheng turned around and looked at Zhou Chu as soon as possible.
"What's going on?"
"It's nothing."
"Have you figured it out, are you going to change jobs or develop into middle-level white-collar workers?"
"Nope."
"Is that a quarrel with Xia Yatou?"
"That's not the point, it's the resignation before the quarrel."
"So what are you resigning for? Although it is said that it is hard to force it, but if you don't want to do it, let me know first, and help you contact the next job. Ou Cheng was a little dissatisfied, he didn't care what others thought of Zhou Chu, but he was the person who knew Zhou Chu best, this guy who always liked to carry everything muffled on his own shoulders was really worrying.
"I didn't bother with anything, I just didn't want to do it." Zhou Chu lit a cigarette for himself, and the smoke filled the air with Ou Cheng who couldn't see his expression clearly, but Ou Cheng's intuition told him that Zhou Chu was hiding something from him.
"Don't be verbose." Zhou Chu looked at Ou Cheng, interrupted Ou Cheng's desire to speak, and stopped, "I'll stay up all night tonight, will you accompany me?" ”
Ou Cheng looked at Zhou Chu and sighed helplessly: "Okay, I don't ask, you weigh it yourself, I will give up my life to accompany the gentleman tonight, and when I want to work, talk to me, and I will arrange it for you." ”
Zhou Chu smiled, didn't refuse or agree, just built a new game. …,
Fight all night until dawn.
Looking at the time, it was already nine o'clock in the morning, Ou Cheng couldn't hold it anymore, and patted Zhou Chu's shoulder.
"I flashed first, you should go back early, don't be so crazy and hurt yourself."
"I know it." Zhou Chu smiled, "You flash first, I'll go back after this one." ”
"Cheng, I'll go first, what's the phone for me."
“OK。”
After leaving in Oucheng, Zhou Chu looked at the screen in front of him in a daze for a while, then stood up and washed his face, in the mirror of the bathroom, he could see his dark circles under his eyes because of the unstable and pitiful sleep of the past few days, and the dark circles under his eyes after an all-night with high concentration, he was actually very tired, but he didn't dare to sleep.
Yes, he was terrified of night and sleep right now.
But how can a man not sleep?
He didn't know what to do, but he tried his best not to sleep.
Oucheng, who left, always felt a little uneasy, so he sent a text message to Qin Jing.
'Zhou Chu was with me last night, and all night, he resigned. ’
Qin Jing quickly replied with a text message.
I know. ’
'He's all right, is he?' ’
Ignore him. ’
After that, there was no reply, and the pair really quarreled, but Ou Cheng didn't know what to do, and his text message made Qin Jing feel even more disappointed, and the idea of sending a text message was dispelled. And what Ou Cheng and Qin Jing didn't know was that in order not to sleep, Zhou Chu had to stay up in the Internet café until the next day before staggering back to his home.
Zhou Chu, who was almost in a coma and collapsed on the bed, the last thought was that this time, he wouldn't enter that damn nightmare again.
