The unscrupulous system forced me to frantically test the small black room

The roasted sweet potatoes were golden in color, with a faint fragrance in the heat. While Tao Zhi was peeling the skin, his mouth was already full of drool.

The roasted sweet potatoes melt in the mouth, and the sweetness overflows between the lips and teeth. Just one bite, at this moment, Tao Zhi feels satisfied and has no regrets in life.

Tao Zhi gradually relaxed as he chewed, and the uncontrollable trembling of his body due to the cold gradually faded away.

The uncle felt relieved when he saw the two men's faces turn rosy, and dragged a bench over to chat.

"Two children were trapped on the mountain by rain before. A 13-year-old brother brought his 6-year-old brother to the mountain cemetery in the middle of the night to look for their mother."

"They were even more rigid than you two. They were just little kids squatting at the door for who knows how long, and they didn't even know how to push the door open to come in. Luckily, I got up to go to the bathroom at night and opened the door and saw someone at the door, so I led the two wet rats in."

The uncle said as he looked at the two people whose cheeks were bulging from eating.

"Are you two brothers too?" the uncle asked.

Tao Zhi and Gong Cheng didn't know how to respond for a moment, and Tao Zhi responded hesitantly.

"The combination of the two of you, the troublesome older brother and the steady younger brother, is quite refreshing." The uncle joked.

The three of them chatted about this and that. The uncle spoke in a humorous way, making Tao Zhi laugh from time to time, and he laughed so hard that he trembled in Gong Cheng's arms.

"Uncle, you are really good at talking. Your wife must have been coaxed by you with this mouth." Tao Zhi teased.

The smile on the uncle's face faded a little when he heard this, and his eyes became disturbed with some other inexplicable meaning.

"Don't look at me as a talkative person now, I used to be a taciturn person as well." said the uncle.

"Oh, there is a story here." Tao Zhi said with a smile.

"Want to listen?" the uncle asked.

"The plot has come to this point, so you're definitely all ears," Tao Zhi replied.

As Tao Zhi spoke, he crossed his legs and leaned back, lazily nestling in Gong Cheng's warm embrace. He searched for a long time on Gong Cheng's chest with the back of his head before finding a satisfactory place to lean on.

Gong Cheng let him lean on him. Tao Zhi's strands of hair tickled Gong Cheng's chest, and a tender look appeared in Gong Cheng's eyes. He took advantage of the fact that Tao Zhi couldn't see the love in his heart, so he didn't hide it.

"My wife and I were the ones who took the initiative to find someone to talk about our relationship."

"Don't look at me as a rough guy now. I used to be a village teacher."

"She was one of the most beautiful girls in the village at that time. There was no boy who didn't like her. She chose to marry a rich second-generation man in the town and chose me, a poor teacher who was well-known in the surrounding area."

"In the past, my family was too poor to find a wife, but my wife was the only one who didn't despise me. After she fell in love with me, she came directly to propose marriage. She didn't ask for anything, but just brought a new quilt to come over."

"I refused once because I didn't want to burden her, but she rushed to the door and hugged me in front of my mother, smiling and asking me to be responsible for her."

"After we got married, I found that she was a talkative person. She kept saying "I like you" and "I love you" without any shame. Every day when I woke up, she would smile and say how much she liked me and ask me if she looked good today."

"At that time, I didn't know where my noble spirit came from. I felt that love should be forbearing and implicit, and that words like 'like' and 'love' were too vulgar and superficial."

"I have been stubborn and rigid all my life, and I was stingy in expressing my love to my lover, so much so that I never had the chance to talk to her once until she died."

The uncle's eyes turned slightly red as he spoke.

Tao Zhi was stunned after hearing this.

"Your wife..."

"She was in a car accident while pregnant. She had a severe hemorrhage and the baby was taken out by caesarean section. I didn't get to see her for the last time when I rushed to the hospital from school."

"The one in the seventh row and eighth column of the tombstone forest is my wife. There is an empty tombstone next to her. My name will be written on it in a few years," said the uncle.

Tao Zhi felt an inexplicable tension in his heart. Looking at the old man's lonely expression, his nose felt sore, but he didn't know what to say.

"When I was young, I wrote countless words of praise and eulogy on the blackboard with chalk."

"I teach students how to use words to express their thoughts and needs, and how to use simple words to express love and praise to important people."

"In the end, I was full of knowledge and could speak eloquently in front of my students, but I was dumb in front of the person who loved me the most. Among thousands of words, I couldn't find a simple word of praise to give to my lover."

"Now I have become like her. My daughter always complains that I am too talkative and say cheesy things."

"My wife was a chatterbox when she was alive. I'm afraid she won't be able to stop talking even after she dies, so I quit my job as a teacher and applied for a security guard position in this cemetery."

"Every day I would sit next to her and chat with her, and I would say in a cheesy way that she looked pretty today, and I would also praise how good our daughter was, how good the weather was today, and how round the moon was tonight."

"I would complain to her about every little thing. I guess now it's her turn to be annoyed by my nagging all the time." The uncle laughed.

Tao Zhi and Gong Cheng were both silent, and no one spoke.

Because the atmosphere was a bit depressing, Tao Zhi was even too embarrassed to wipe the dust from the corners of his mouth from eating roasted sweet potatoes, and could only let his mouth be covered in black.

The uncle's eyes fell on the two people's faces.

"You two are actually a young couple." The uncle said quietly.

Tao Zhi choked and started coughing when he heard that. It was a severe cough that made Tao Zhi's lungs shake and his whole face turned red. Gong Cheng hurriedly lifted a corner of the quilt and reached out to pat Tao Zhi's back to relieve the pain.

Tao Zhi finally recovered, but his neck had lost its whiteness.

"Uncle, why do you say that?" Tao Zhi asked guiltily.

"You can't lie with your eyes," said the uncle.

Both of them were stunned when they heard this.

Tao Zhi: Is my look so obvious?

Gong Cheng: Is my look so obvious?

"Xiao Cheng, you really love me too much. You can't even hide it. I didn't expect you to be such a sentimental person. Tsk tsk tsk."

Tao Zhili was unwilling to put the blame on Gong Cheng, saying that he who strikes first is the strongest and he who strikes later will suffer.

Gong Cheng did not answer, but just looked at the uncle in front of him quietly.

"My daughter brought a girl home two years ago. I didn't understand it at the time. I could only cry all night in front of my lover's tombstone and ask her what I should do."

"I have become more open-minded in the past two years. It's fine as long as the children are happy. There is no need to restrict them with so many rules and regulations. They are imposed by others. As long as you figure it out, there is nothing in the world that you can't understand."

"I used to be so arrogant and unwilling to lower my status as a cultured person that I didn't even have the courage to respond directly to my wife's sincere love."

"You young people, don't learn from my habit of keeping your mouth shut. If you don't say something when you have the chance, you will never find another chance to say it later."

"Because you are afraid of the consequences of your words, you blindly give in to the development and evolution of the situation. The final result is the opposite of what you want, and you will regret it in the end."

"Say whatever you want to say, do whatever you want to do. Young people don't have so many things to consider, so just act recklessly." The uncle said earnestly.

Tao Zhi's heart gradually sank as he listened to the uncle's words as a "veteran", and a bitter taste filled his mouth.

How could there be any chance to speak it out?

Some words are never given the chance to be said.

What can I say?

Tell Gong Cheng that this world is a novel.

Tell Gong Cheng that his true love is Gu Dongnan.

Tell him that falling in love with him will lead to the destruction of the world.

These nonsensical remarks are not even jokes, and are not as realistic as Mars hitting the Earth tomorrow.

Tao Zhi swallowed his saliva to suppress the unbearable dryness in his throat.

"Gong Cheng, do you believe that Ultraman exists in the world?" Tao Zhi suddenly said.

Gong Cheng was silent.

Tao Zhi sighed.

Look, people can’t even believe in the existence of Ultraman, so how can they understand that two unsuitable people falling in love will destroy the world?

And even if you understand it, what can you do?

Should I just hold Gong Cheng's hand regardless of anything else and let the world be buried with our bloody and brainless love?
