Night Two Hundred and Ninety-Six: The Gaze in the Mirror
Lonely nights, lonely hearts, souls with nowhere to rest! Can't sleep? Come and tell you a story about the Netherworld, the story we're going to tell today is called "The Gaze in the Mirror"!
The eyes are the windows of the soul, a look can reveal the most true thoughts in a person's heart, so have you ever gazed into your own eyes? When we look at ourselves, what will we see in our eyes?
When I went to work today, a colleague was fired, the reason is very simple, he stole a new mobile phone bought by the boss, he is still an old employee of the unit, and he is about to retire, but he didn't expect to be confused at the last moment, and he naturally regretted it afterwards, but he can't be blamed for it, the reason why he did this is not because of his lazy son, who has no ability to make money and has to stink, forcing his old man to buy a "fruit machine".
The old colleague used an elderly machine that only cost more than 100 yuan for most of his life, and his salary was not high, so he was definitely reluctant to spend more than two months of salary to buy a mobile phone.
But the son went on a hunger strike at home, and in desperation, the old man had to say that he would buy it for his son when his salary was paid this time.
Coincidentally, when he went to the boss's office, he found that the boss had the latest "fruit machine" he had just bought on his desk, so he made a mistake that he regretted for the rest of his life.
The boss found that his mobile phone was missing, and began to go crazy to look for it, losing a mobile phone like him is nothing, the important thing is that there are many important customer numbers and other important information in the mobile phone, and the mobile phone is gone, it is possible to delay a lot of business.
After looking for a long time, the boss suddenly calmed down and began to carefully analyze what happened, and finally talked to several people, including the colleague, and the conversation was very short and only a few minutes.
According to the people who were approached to talk to them, the boss only asked them if they had entered their office today while they were away, and after receiving a positive answer, he asked what they had done when they found out that he was not there, and then let them leave. However, during the conversation, the boss kept staring at each other's eyes, and the eyes were sharp like a knife, and the person who looked at it felt uncomfortable all over, as if he had stripped naked and was now in front of the boss.
It is said that the old colleague who was already frightened at that time did not admit that he had taken the mobile phone, so the boss asked him to receive his salary, which was double the salary plus a new fruit machine, and there was only one condition that his mobile phone was returned to him.
The legendary story of the boss catching a thief with one eye quickly spread in the unit, and people can't help but wonder if a person's eyes can really betray the true thoughts of the heart?
After returning home that day, Lin Fan rushed directly into the bathroom, washed off the sweat and exhaustion with cold water, and inadvertently saw himself in the mirror when he wiped his hair.
You must know that you are just in your early thirties this year, and it has been less than two years since you officially joined the work, and you have completely transformed from a "little fresh meat" to an uncle.
The skin has become rough, big eye bags, bloodshot eyes, originally bright big eyes, and now the vision has become a little blurry, all of which are injured by radiation in front of the computer all day long.
Looking at the haggard face in the mirror, I felt that it was time to think about it, buy some cosmetics recommended by friends, and if I didn't take care of it, it was estimated that it would not take a few years to become a completely old man.
Recently, I often stay up late and work overtime, and there are several acne on my face, and I squeeze them one by one in the mirror, which is really refreshing!
When I turned around after cleaning up, I saw a face full of anger, which seemed to be covered with black gas, like an explosive bag that had ignited a fuse and was about to explode!
"How many times have I told you, don't look in the mirror, even if you look in the mirror, you have to wipe it clean immediately, you see how disgusting it is!"
In order to avoid being nagged to death, Lin Fan had no choice but to find a rag and start wiping the dirty things that had just been splashed on the mirror by squeezing the pimples, but he didn't expect this thing to be really hard to wipe, so Lin Fan rubbed it hard with a wet rag for a long time before he finally wiped it clean.
"That's okay" Lin Fan beckoned his wife to come and check, his wife didn't know what she was busy with at this time, there was no response, Lin Fan stood in front of the mirror and admired his "masterpiece".
The mirror is wiped clean and the person is a lot clearer, the bathroom is not very spacious, everything can be reflected in the mirror.
This is not very spacious, but he and his wife have bought it through their own hard work, and everything in the house carries their hard work and sweat.
At that time, Lin Fan and his wife did not have a regular job, so in order to make money, they went to the street to set up a stall, were chased by the city management all day long, and were frozen in winter and danced "tap dance" on the street.
Finally, they are not only happy to come to the end, not only have they settled in the city now, but Lin Fan also has a regular job, and the income is not low, and they are full of longing for life.
But the reality has always been so cruel, the two of them have just settled down, and before they have a good life for a few days, their wife is sick, and she is very sick.
It wasn't until his wife couldn't bear the torture of illness and was admitted to the hospital that Lin Fan knew that his wife was actually sick a long time ago, but he didn't tell himself, and he endured the pain every day to maintain that innocent and happy smile, encouraging Lin Fan to continue to work hard and keep moving forward!
His wife's illness did not get up again, and at the last moment of her life, she said to Lin Fan that she must let him live well!
"Dad, what are you looking at? Are you missing your mother?" a little girl suddenly appeared beside Lin Fan, looked at Lin Fan who was in a daze in the mirror and asked.
Hearing the little girl's voice, Lin Fan finally woke up from his memories, and then remembered that his wife had passed away a year ago.
Lin Fan secretly wiped away his tears, showed a bright smile to his daughter, carried her into the bedroom, and settled her to sleep.
Thinking of the child's eyes looking at him just now, Lin Fan felt a kind of dependence and care, and what his eyes in the mirror revealed was longing, responsibility and hope, it turned out that these eyes can really reveal a person's inner thoughts!
After settling the child, Lin Fan came to the bathroom again, and began to stare at the eyes in the mirror, thinking only about his wife, she was only thinking about her wife now, she really wanted to see her wife again!
