Chapter 7: Dreams and Choices

The dark tide is surging and is beginning to spread to the whole society and cover the whole world.

A supper stall in Shenzhen.

"Why are you still free to ask me out on weekdays, and your boss didn't let you continue to work overtime tonight to be an overtime dog?"

Zhang Han took half a glass of beer, shook it gently in his hand, looked at his friend sitting opposite, and joked playfully.

"Don't say it, I don't know how many times I regretted why my head had a convulsion when I filled in the university application and chose to major in design. ”

When it comes to his work, Li Chenglin is depressed.

Raising his head and drinking the beer in the cup, he picked up a few mouthfuls of food and threw it into his mouth, and said while eating: "In the two years since graduating from college, I can understand how stupid I was back then.

What designs make the world marvel!

This dream is bullshit when it comes out to work!

There is only overtime and overtime every day, and the drawings are also drawn according to the model, and at most they will be slightly changed, so they don't need to spend any brains at all.

Not to mention adding your own design ideas, the whole design streamliner.

So there has been a bit of an accident in my life these days, and on the good side, I quit.

Finally, you don't have to look at the boss's face, look at the repetition of project requirements, and do those simple and boring design solutions.

That kind of life simply tarnished my dream of design. ”

"Where are you going next?" Zhang Han asked.

"After I quit my job, I was going to go home and open a small shop, and in my spare time I was drawing and doing amateur design.

The income doesn't have to be too high, just enough to live. ”

Li Chenglin smiled proudly and said, "You don't know, I filled out the resignation form and threw it directly on the boss's desk, how funny the other party's stunned look was."

He never expected that I, who had always been obedient to life, would have such a domineering scene. ”

Zhang Han's face was not a little surprised, he raised his glass and drank the wine in the cup, and praised: "This is in line with your character, it seems that you are ready to go home and be a happy little landlord."

Also, you are not young, and you have been with Yuqiong for so long!

It's time to get married, and send me an invitation. ”

"It's too early to get married.

I have no opinion, it's just that she doesn't want to live a life at home with a baby so early. ”

Li Chenglin shook his head, hesitated, looked at Zhang Han's reaction, and said tentatively: "I heard Yuqiong say that Feng Chime also resigned and went home last week.

She used her savings from her job and her family to sponsor part of it to raise funds to open a photography studio. ”

"Photography Building, this is quite in line with her personality and hobbies. ”

Zhang Han's expression did not change much.

If he remembers correctly, when the two were still together, she loved to take pictures and photographers, and she repeatedly said that this was her wish.

But it's a pity that this wish didn't come true at all when the two were together.

"Why don't you go back with us?"

Since you and Wind Chime separated, the four of us haven't been together for a long time.

The middle school classmates are still in touch now, and there are few who have a good relationship. ”

"It's late, it's unnecessary, I can't go back, there's no point in me going back. ”

Pouring himself a glass of wine, Zhang Han smiled.

The smile was a little nostalgic, a little bitter, but more resolute.

Drinking the wine in the cup in one gulp, Zhang Han's voice was full of decisiveness, and said: "Perhaps, it is my dream to go back to my hometown and live a life like a small landlord."

But dreams are dreams after all, and it may be better to keep dreams alive.

The dream is kept alive, and now what I want to do is stand on a high place and see what the scenery of the world is like!"

In the end, Zhang Han exuded a compelling momentum.

The momentum was immediately closed, and in the blink of an eye, Zhang Han returned to his original state.

"You too?"

Zhang Han's sudden change in momentum made Li Chenglin stunned, and then asked in surprise as if he had thought of something.

"You don't either. Zhang Han smiled.

As soon as the two met, Zhang Han found that his friend for many years had actually awakened and evolved.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that after the other party became an evolutionary, his mentality and dreams were still the same as before, and he hadn't changed much.

Zhang Han took out a key from his pocket, put it in front of Li Chenglin, and instructed, "Go back."

Remember to clean my house from time to time.

Maybe one day when I'm tired, I'll go back to rest.

Live your life as a small landlord at home.

One day, you will see your brother and me, intimidating the world. ”

Li Chenglin was silent, and after a while, he stretched out his hand to put away the key given by Zhang Han, and sighed: "It turns out that we are also evolutionaries, we live in a couple, isn't it good to live the life we want?"

From middle school to now, everyone has known each other for almost ten years.

I know your dreams have never been about the cold scenery in the heights.

Are you worth it?"

Li Chenglin knew what Zhang Han's choice meant.

When he knew that the Evolver existed, he understood that the world had quietly changed

The road chosen by Zhang Han is a road of flesh and blood, and the bloody wind and bloody rain are the scenery of this road.

The throne is a throne of bones, and blood and flesh are the material of this throne.

He only has his own ideal of design, likes to live the life of a small landlord, and his heart is not so big, and he can't understand why Zhang Han chose such a path

"This is my choice, and I didn't have a chance to quit in the first place, so I had to finish it. ”

Zhang Han didn't care about Li Chenglin's expression, but explained seriously: "I know your personality doesn't like these.

But weakness is the original sin, and even if you plan to live the life of a small landlord for the rest of your life, you must remember this.

Don't let yourself be too weak!

Don't wait for an accident to happen and you can't do anything about it, then you regret it!"

"I know that, and I'll pay attention. ”

Li Chenglin nodded, signaling that he was clear, and then said with a wry smile: "Originally, I asked you out tonight to follow Yuqiong's instructions to persuade you to go back with us."

I didn't think that the final result would be like this, and it seems that when I go back to report tonight, I will definitely feel bad again. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Han couldn't help laughing, and gloated: "Haha, it depends on how you explain when you go back, if not, I'll tell Yuqiong."

Get you on your knees and type out a 5,000-word review book on your knees.

I think this is a good punishment, and Yuqiong should be happy to accept it. ”

"your calf. Li Chenglin scolded angrily.

"That's the good thing about a single dog, and those of you who have a girlfriend won't understand. ”

Zhang Han continued to smile indifferently, picked up the wine bottle and filled it for the two of them separately, raised his glass, and said, "Come, brother, dry this cup, I wish you a prosperous life as a small landlord in the future!"

"Okay, it's done, and I wish you to stand on the highest place as soon as possible and deter the world. ”

Clinking glasses to drain the wine, the two of them drank less than a bottle of low-alcohol beer, but they both felt drunk.

After drinking this glass of wine, the two were silent.

They knew in their hearts that after they separated tonight, the chances for the two to meet again would become less and less.

Even if I have the opportunity to meet again in the future, I am afraid that I will not have the feeling I have now.

There was silence for a long time, and after a long time, Zhang Han stood up and broke the silence.

Looking at the best friend in front of him, Zhang Han said goodbye in a low voice: "I should also go, remember not to leak my invitation when you and Yuqiong got married."

In the future, the circle of friends will show less affection, I have closed the circle of friends, and you can't abuse me.

In the future, don't be too happy in your life. ”

"Okay, don't be too lonely in the future. ”

", I'll be lonely?

Let's go, you asked me out, don't forget to pay. ”

After speaking, Zhang Han turned around and walked out without hesitation.

The lights of the city are brilliant in the air, and the business of the supper stalls is still booming, but Zhang Han seems to be walking in the dim light, as if isolated from the world, and his back is submerged into the darkness around the corner step by step.

Life is like this, if you want to gain, you must pay.

If you choose eternity, you have to endure loneliness.
