Chapter 368 [Warm and Sad]

2022, April 12.

Liucheng, Central Hospital.

Xu Qi looked at Bao Shiyi lying on the hospital bed, and then looked at the manuscript that Bao Shiyi gave her. It was a little unexpected that Bao Shiyi also wrote a new story in the hospital. Is your injury better?"

Bao Shixi nodded and said, "Aunt Xu, don't worry, I'm fine, you can read this story, if you can, I'd like to publish it as soon as possible, and like the previous "Ten Deadly Sins", I also plan to publish it online Upload part of the distribution."

Xu Qi didn't have any opinion on Bao Shiyi's request. If it weren't for the fact that the publishing house and Bao Shiyi had been cooperating very happily, Bao Shiyi might not care about the publishing house at all, and just uploaded the whole story on the Internet. , this will naturally have a great impact on the physical release of new books by the publishing house.

However, the last time Bao Shiyi uploaded and published the first part of "Ten Deadly Sins" on the Internet, halfway through the upload and update, he did not continue to write the latter story, but let Liucheng Publishing House publish it. This approach is to some extent A lot of resentment points have also been collected on the Internet.

In addition to the sadness value, despair value, and the additional resentment value, Bao Shiyi naturally paid more attention to this method of revenge.

Xu Qi looked at Bao Shiyi. At first she was really worried about Bao Shiyi, but now it seems that there is really nothing wrong with Bao Shiyi's body, and he has gradually recovered. Thinking of this, Xu Qi's gaze could not help but fall on the printed manuscript.

I have always been Bao Shiyi's editor, and also a die-hard fan of Bao Shiyi. Xu Qi is undoubtedly looking forward to Bao Shiyi's new book. It can be said that he is looking forward to it more than anyone else. Some editors hope that their authors will create more , At the same time, fans hope to write more touching stories about their favorite authors.

Xu Qi flipped through the manuscript of the novel that Bao Shiyi gave her, and looked at the name on the manuscript, her eyes flashed, the name was very simple, but very interesting.

The title of the three-letter book——

"White Night Walk"!
……

Xu Qi's eyes were fixed, and the introduction under the title of the book only had one sentence: "I just hope that I can walk in the sun hand in hand."

Xu Qi inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity, that feeling was really familiar, such a one-sentence introduction already smacked of sadness.Xu Qi looked up at Bao Shiyi who was sitting on the hospital bed, his lips moved slightly, and wanted to ask Bao Shiyi directly if this story was another tragedy.

"It's a sad and heartwarming story."

Hearing Bao Shiyi's words, Xu Qi nodded noncommittally. She really knew herself as the author very well. May be a warm story.

However, Xu Qi didn't say anything.

At first, Bao Shiyi planned to email the manuscript directly to Xu Qi, but Xu Qi wanted to come here in person. On the one hand, because Bao Shiyi is currently hospitalized, although Xu Qi had already visited the hospital before, Xu Qi What's more, I want to talk to Bao Shiyi about the new book face to face.

Bao Shiyi naturally would not refuse.

For the novel "White Night Journey", Bao Shiyi is naturally very optimistic. This is another wonderful work of revenge against society, and Uncle Dongye's another masterpiece is naturally not bad.

It is such a story that perfectly combines hopeless but persevering bleak love with persistent and meticulous calm reasoning. Bao Shiyi believes that this story will definitely collect a lot of negative energy.

It is precisely because of the sadness and despair in "White Night Journey", as well as the cruelty at the end, that Bao Shiyi chose this film to take revenge on society.

……

Because his mother had an affair with someone hired by his pawnshop at home, Dong Yuanliang ran to play in the ventilation duct of the abandoned building, but saw the unbearable scene of his father infringing on his friend Xuesui. The distorted fear and anger made him 11 years old. Stabbed her father to death with long scissors, and then Xuesui's mother and "mother's lover" also "accidentally died", and then she was adopted by Tang Ze, who lived alone elegantly.

The boy and girl without a complete family spent seven peaceful years after the tragedy. However, Dong Yuanliang discovered that someone was still investigating the case back then, and they had begun to suspect himself and Tang Xuesui.

The two without family warmth, in order not to let their crimes be discovered, tried every means to get rid of their relatives and friends one by one.

The reason for all this is that the girl's mother forced her daughter to sell her body for money because of family distress. The unfortunate childhood experience made Xuesui's heart lose the sunshine, and Dong Yuanliang has been secretly helping Xuesui based on various complicated feelings. Sui takes revenge on her persecutors, and at the same time helps her remove all obstacles that hinder her success step by step.

It is such a story, to a certain extent, it also kills for love, which is very similar to "The Devotion of Suspect X", especially at the end of the story, the hero also sacrificed his life.

However, the most desperate and vindictive thing is not just this, but at the end of the story...

……

Bao Shiyi was lying on the hospital bed, leisurely eating the fruit brought by Xu Qi. Now he wanted to see how much Xu Qi, the first reader, could produce after finishing "White Night Journey", especially at the end of the story. negative energy value.

It's been a long time, really a long time, Xu Qi didn't read the 30-word novel quickly, but the more he read it, the sadness in his heart became heavier and heavier.

"Aunt Xu, would you like to have some too?"

Zhou Yun bought food for Bao Shiyi, and seeing Xu Qi who was fascinated by reading the manuscript, she couldn't help but said, "Let's eat some together."

Xu Qi waved his hand, indicating no need.

Seeing this, Zhou Yun didn't bother Xu Qi any more, and let Xu Qi sit aside and quietly flip through "White Night Journey".

“It tastes good, really good!”

"Try this, it's okay."

Just like that, Bao Shiyi and Zhou Yun were eating their meals, and from time to time they talked about which dish was more delicious. On the other side, Xu Qi, who was being revenged by Bao Shiyi, had red eyes and began to wipe tears.

"Eleven, you said before that this is a sad and warm story, it's not warm at all, and some are just cold."

Xu Qi's eyes were red, and he looked at Bao Shiyi sadly, thinking of Dong Yuanliang's final ending in the story, and Xuesui's last unfeeling, it really made Xu Qi feel chills in his heart.

Although Xu Qi has already guessed the truth of the case early on, but at the end of the novel, the mystery of the case is gradually revealed, and it is not until the last page that the real theme of the novel makes Xu Qi really feel the sting.

Xu Qi looked at Bao Shiyi, wiped away tears, and finally his eyes fell on the last sentence in the novel——

"I saw Xuesui going upstairs along the escalator, her back was like a self-colored ghost. She didn't look back once."

Dong Yuanliang's dedication without regrets has reached the point of sacrificing his life, and even Xuesui's unfeeling is in the plan.

What really made Xu Qi feel endless despair and sadness.

When I finally saw the ending, I was really shuddering!

……

"Xu Qi, the sadness value is +666!"

"Xu Qi, despair value +999!"

While eating, Bao Shiyi saw the negative energy value emerging from Xu Qi on the light curtain panel. He was in a very good mood, especially when he saw the sad expression on Xu Qi's face, he felt that the food was even more delicious.

Sure enough, the negative energy value is like poppy opium, and the taste is really cool.

"Aunt Xu, have you finished reading? Let's have some together after reading. The food from Zhou Yun's family is really delicious."

Zhou Yun raised her brows when she heard Bao Shiyi's words, and murmured with some doubts: "No, it's still the same restaurant as yesterday, it hasn't changed."

Xu Qi looked at Bao Shiyi, and when she heard these words, she felt an indescribable sadness in her heart. She was feeling uncomfortable, but Bao Shishi seemed very happy, and asked: "Eleven, didn't you say that this is a warm story before?" ?"

"Why is it so cruel in the end, in the end?"

Bao Shiyi raised the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were full of smiles. Looking at Xu Qi's tangled and sad expression, the black swan spirit in his heart flapped its wings cheerfully, and said, "There is also a warm side, don't you see Isn't Yuan Liang's love very warm and touching?"

"You, you, you have the nerve to say..."

Xu Qi felt that his heart had been stabbed by Bao Shiyi again, feeling very depressed, and said depressingly: "In the end, Yuan Liang's ending was so miserable, so heartless, there was no warmth at all, and some were just cold."

"Yuan Liang's greatest wish is to walk hand in hand in the sunshine, but this is a luxury that Yuan Liang will never be able to achieve. He can only move forward in the dark night illuminated by each other's light. In order to survive, they After paying a price that cannot be repaid, Xuesui left just like that in the end."

"Tell me where it's warm, tell me!"

Xu Qi tried her best to control her mood, but it was really uncomfortable to hold back some words in her heart, it was really uncomfortable.

Then, Xu Qi contributed a negative energy value to Bao Shiyi.

It was such a negative energy value that really made Bao Shiyi feel that Xu Qi seemed to be about to explode.

……

"Calm down, calm down, calm down, Aunt Xu, don't get excited, don't get excited, I'm still a patient, I'm a patient."

Seeing Xu Qi's almost suppressed growling questioning, Bao Shiyi felt flustered, and said weakly, "Cough cough, cough, don't get too excited, if you have something to say, just say it."

Xu Qi looked at Bao Shiyi, and said sullenly: "Eleven, why did you write like this, this story is really hopeless beyond words."

Xu Qi really felt uncomfortable in her heart, the suppressed despair made her really uncomfortable, and she had to say it face to face to be happy.

"Since killing his own biological father, Yuan Liang's life has completely changed the course. Together with Xuesui, they may only want to keep their souls, but unfortunately they didn't keep anything in the end. There is no happiness to speak of, completely The despair, even the last trace of warmth is completely abandoned, this is really too sad, too desperate."

Zhou Yun on the side heard Xu Qi's words and turned to look at Bao Shiyi. She also heard Bao Shiyi say that this story is sad and warm.

But looking at Xu Qi's sad and uncomfortable appearance now, and what he said, it doesn't look like a warm story.

……

Seeing Zhou Yun's gaze, Bao Shiyi silently moved aside, squeezed out a smile, and said, "I told this story, which is both sad and warm."

"Um, that's right, think about it... the leading actor, Yuan Liang, has lived in a deformed family since he was a child. His father is a pedophile, and his mother has an affair with a shop assistant. Yuan Liang has encountered those dirty situations more than once. , my young heart was gradually shrouded in resentment and despair."

Saying that, Bao Shiyi himself felt guilty.

Such a miserable life experience can hardly be compared with his predecessor Eleven.

"but--"

Bao Shiyi looked at Xu Qi and said righteously: "However, Xuesui is the only light in Yuan Liang's life at this time, and the library is a refuge for the two of them to temporarily dwell in their hearts. I can imagine Yuan Liang holding The proud paper-cut was shown to Xuesui, and Xuesui smiled quietly, the smile at that time was not fake at all, Aunt Xu, don’t you think this relationship is not warm?”

"For Xuesui, for the light, Yuan Liang is willing to protect Xuesui as a guardian and hide in a place where people can't see. Even if Xuesui gets married, she has to marry someone else. Everything Yuan Liang has done is for Xuesui's success." , Let Xuesui become a queen-like figure and be looked up to by others. Even if he, he sacrificed a lot, became the perpetrator of evil again and again, burdened with the shackles of betrayal, calculation, and redemption, and lived in darkness..."

The more Bao Shiyi talked, the more guilty he felt, and he asked intermittently: "Uh, uh, that's it. Isn't this original light great?"

"As Xuesui said, there is no sun in my sky. It is always dark, but it is not dark because something replaces the sun. Although it is not as bright as the sun, it is enough for me. With this light, I to make night into day."

"I have never had the sun, so... so I am not afraid of losing."

Having said that, Bao Shixi paused for a while and his voice weakened. Now that he has the sun, he is afraid of losing it.

……

Xu Qi looked at Bao Shiyi and said dissatisfiedly: "Then why do you let Xuesui lose the light that replaces the sun, and you still say this is a warm story?"

"Aunt Xu, even if Xuesui was expressionless like a doll in the end, she replied coldly: I don't know, even if Xuesui never looked back once, even if the whole world collapsed without a trace of redemption, even if there was no love, no watch , without sunlight, even if there are only two children wandering alone in the dark, trapped in that dirty ventilation duct..."

Xu Qi just stared at Bao Eleven with sharp eyes, as if waiting for Bao Eleven to say something.

"Even if, even..."

Bao Shiyi looked at Xu Qi's frightening eyes, and he could no longer touch his conscience to say those words. His conscience felt a little embarrassed, and finally he pulled out a smile that was uglier than crying, and said, "Uh, Well, I can't make it up..."

"I confess, I admit, I confess, this is not a sad and warm story."

"It's a warm and sad story."

Well, another crit to retaliate against society!
