Chapter 1: The Unknown
Wednesday, June 12, 2016, light rain, night!
The arrival of night has cast a thick veil of mystery over this characteristic Jiangnan city.
In this big Jiangnan City, Ye Chen, who was wearing casual clothes, walked out of the snack street leisurely with a string of balls in his mouth.
Step, step, step......
Because of the rain just now, there are a lot of small pools on the road, and there is a sound of feet stepping on them.
And with the arrival of night, it did not make this noisy city during the day, thus quiet. Colorful neon lights flashed on the side of the road, and there was a brief traffic jam on the road because of the approaching rush hour. All around, tall skyscrapers stand resolutely, reaching into the sky, high without reaching the top, looking up, the "disappearing" roof is like a "black hole" in the universe, giving people a mysterious and unpredictable feeling.
And our Ye Chen was eating small balls on the way home.
Ye Chen, the best company in Jiangnan City, is a department manager in Yafeili. It can be regarded as below one person and above ten thousand.
After graduating from university, Ye Chen resolutely stayed in this city, passed through three years of unremitting efforts, and rushed through layers of checkpoints before he reached the position of department manager. As far as Ye Chen is concerned, compared with those classmates he graduated with, it is already much better.
Many of the classmates who graduated from college with Ye Chen in the past went to other cities to develop after graduation, and the people who stayed in this city together did not contact each other often. Although they are in the same city, they are also strangers.
Ye Chen ate small balls and walked onto a viaduct, leaning on the fence, quietly looking at the slowly flowing river under the bridge, which made people think about it.
"Whew!"
It was like a sigh of relief. Take a bite of the ball, turn around and lean your back against the fence. Looking at the people walking on the road, a trace of melancholy flashed through my mind. After looking at the balls in his hand, he shook his head and said to himself slowly: "Balls, balls, it's still hello, see I eat you." ”
After speaking, he took another bite of a ball and ate it with relish.
Jingle bells...
The pleasant ringtone came out, and Ye Chen hurriedly took out his mobile phone to see that it was a call from his mother!
Ye Chen was startled, and hurriedly swallowed the ball in his mouth.
"Hey, what's wrong Mom, what's the matter?" Ye Chen picked up the phone.
"What's the matter, can't Mom call you?" came a loving reproachful female voice on the phone.
"Yes, Mom, you can call me whenever you want, and I'm waiting for my son. Ye Chen hurriedly said.
"Go, go, don't be poor!" On the phone, Ye Chen's mother chuckled and said, "Chen'er, be more careful when you go out, tell your family if you have anything, don't hold it in your heart?"
"Got it, Mom! I'm all fine, my bosses and subordinates in the company are very kind to me, so you don't have to worry about anything. Ye Chen replied.
As soon as the voice fell, an impatient voice suddenly came from the other side of the phone, saying, "Chen'er, you are not a big boss this year, have you found your girlfriend?"
Groov!
Hearing this, Ye Chen knew that something was wrong as soon as he heard this, and forcing marriage had always been what he was most afraid of. hurriedly said perfunctorily: "Mom, cough cough, this, that, I'm still young." My girlfriend is saying that I don't want to get married at such a young age. ”
"What do you mean to be young? You are twenty-six years old this year, and you are not looking for one, how long do you want me to hold my grandson? I am two years younger than you, and the little tiger of your Aunt Li's family and her son are already one year old, how long do you want to wait? I think I am seventy or eighty years old before I can hold my grandson?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Listening to his mother's preaching, Ye Chen could only agree again and again.
In his heart, Ye Chen hated that little tiger to death, what did you say you got married early? Ye Chen was depressed, since this little tiger got married, Ye Chen has been urged to marry by his mother with this matter.
Mom, I'll definitely bring a girlfriend back for the Chinese New Year this year. "There's no way, Ye Chen can only stabilize his mother's side first. Otherwise, Ye Chen couldn't stand his mother's preach.
Actually, Ye Chen has been in love a few times before, and he remembers the most deeply. When she was in college, the girl's name was Li Fang, and she was Ye Chen's college classmate.
I remember that when they were in school, both of them were praised by their classmates as "fairy couples". At that time, the surrounding classmates were all envious of the two of them. But a year after graduating from college... At that time, Ye Chen was still a small employee in "Yafei", and the two lived in a rented house of dozens of square meters every day.
But later, it may be that Li Fang couldn't stand this kind of life with Ye Chen, and resolutely abandoned Ye Chen!
Ye Chen remembered that on that day, the sky was dim and terrifying! It seemed that the heavens also knew something. The weather was dull, like Ye Chen's heart.
That day, Li Fang told him about the breakup. Then, he turned around and got into a BMW and slowly walked away from him.
That day, Ye Chen was really sad, and he experienced the feeling of heartache for the first time. Beautiful love, after all, can't resist the temptation of money. Ye Chen originally thought that it was just a bridge in the TV series, but it really happened to him.
In fact, now that he thinks about it, he won't hold a grudge against anyone. Life is like this, but everyone has to take a different path, blame Li Fang for liking money, or blame herself for not being able to give her a better life? No one can understand all this, and no one can be relieved. Actually, if you think about it, it won't be so unbearable.
"Dust, dust?"
In the middle of his thoughts, the shouts of Ye Chen's mother on the phone woke Ye Chen. Coming back to his senses, Ye Chen hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, Mom?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen's mother's soft reproach suddenly came from the phone, and said, "You kid, why are you so distracted?"
"No Mom, I just thought of some of the past, so I was distracted. Ye Chen hurriedly replied.
"Okay, good, Chen'er should pay more attention to his body when he is outside, he still has to eat what he should eat, don't be hungry..."
It is said that a child with a mother is like a treasure, and as soon as Ye Chen's words fell, there was another burst of mother's loving admonition.
"Okay, mom, the rest is fine. With this food, he couldn't have starved himself. You're almost a pig, and your son is a top foodie. ”
At this time, a rough male voice came from the phone and interrupted Ye Chen's mother's words.
Hearing this, the corners of Ye Chen's mouth raised slightly, and he smiled lightly, Ye Chen heard that it was his father's voice.
In this regard, Ye Chen could only be helpless. Because, he's just a foodie. However, he is not fat, and he does not match the fat word at all, and his figure of 1.7 meters is only 60 kilograms. It's standard!
Ye Chen's physique, but the kind of physique that even girls envy, no matter how you eat, you won't get fat. Because of this, in college, they are often regarded as "public enemies" by those girls in their classes.
"Old man Ye, what do you call my son, Chen'er is not your son?" came the mother's roar on the phone.
Then, Ye Chen shook his head and turned into a listener, listening to how his mother exploited his father.
Chirping...
Didi...
Chirping...
At this time, Ye Chen heard a huge brake sound and a horn sounded. When he looked up, Ye Chen was suddenly startled. I saw a little girl standing in the middle of the road in a panic, while a large truck came speeding in front of her. The road was very slippery due to the rain just now, and although the brakes had been made, it was useless, and the car was still sliding forward. The extremely harsh tire rubbing sound drove Ye Chen's heart.
"Be careful!"
Ye Chen shouted, he didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly rushed forward. At this moment, Ye Chen tried his best and finally grabbed the little girl, and with a flick of his right hand, he threw the little girl out in an instant......
Boom!
A huge collision sounded, and Ye Chen flew out of the bridge like a kite with a broken string, and then fell straight down.
The fear of death spread all over Ye Chen's body, and he couldn't move, he could only think heavily in his heart: "Am I going to die......?"
Ye Chen panicked in his heart, but he didn't have the slightest solution. No one can stop him from falling overboard, no one can stop his death!
At this time, no one saw that in the dark night sky, a meteor streaked across the entire sky. At the same time, Ye Chen also fell straight into the water.
Drops...
"Woooooo
"What's wrong with Chen'er, you answer Mom?"
“...”
On the viaduct, Ye Chen's mobile phone heard his mother's panicked shouts. But no one could answer her words anymore. The cries of children, the sound of car alarms, and the noise of crowds filled the entire viaduct.
"Hey, 120, there's a car accident here, come and ......."
“......”
