Chapter 12 A Beam of Light in the Darkness

Cheng Yan once accidentally saw Xu Zhiguo's resume in the personnel department. The undergraduate college was far worse than his own, and he didn't have any scientific research results, but he was more than ten years older than him, so the qualifications were there.

He can only accept a reality depressed.As a newcomer, if I want to gain a firm foothold in the research institute, I can only be subject to such a villain, mediocre, like a ball being rounded and flattened at will.

He kept admonishing himself not to be disturbed by unnecessary things, but it didn't work.My mood fell to the bottom for a while, and I felt that my life was in a predicament, and I couldn't get out no matter what.

At this juncture, his father called again, telling his son that he had lost all his stocks in two days, and that he wanted to jump off the building, so scared that Cheng Yan hurriedly asked for leave and went back to guard.

Every time Cheng Yan went home, he struggled for a while.Since his father had an accident a few years ago, he had another habit of using alcohol to relieve his sorrows, and he became ill from drinking.Bringing a bottle of good wine back to please his father, being a man and a child, I feel so sorry for him, so I don't want to drink, and I feel pitiful looking at that greedy look.Cheng Yan sighed, and bought two bottles of Moutai for his father, so that he wouldn't have to hang himself again.

As soon as he stepped into the house, he heard his father huddled under the quilt and sighed.The stepmother didn't know where to play mahjong for a long time.

His dad used to be famous when he was young, but he lost everything because of drug addiction.So I always think about making a comeback and making a big career all at once.Cheng Yan understood this feeling very well, and patted his father's shoulder through the quilt, reassuring him that the stock will go up next time.The principal that was paid out was Cheng Yan's savings from his monthly wages, and Cheng Yan didn't blame a single word.

In the evening, the father and father had a drink and put his father to sleep. Cheng Yan lay quietly on the small balcony at home, watching the lights of Wanjia outside.

Suddenly his cell phone vibrated, and Cheng Yan's brows that were originally tightly furrowed miraculously relaxed.

Cheng Yan is cold-tempered and never makes friends. The contacts on his mobile phone are only people he has acquaintance with at work, and they only talk about business matters.Recently, he played a tug-of-war with Xu Zhiguo. After Xu Zhiguo forced him to hand over the project, he stopped shouting at Cheng Yan.Cheng Yan also had a free time, and he didn't even call his colleagues to ask him any questions.

So now there is only one person who can send him messages on his mobile phone.

Think about it and know what it will be, Lu Xiaofeng always has nothing to say, have you eaten, what are you doing, have you slept, remember to bring an umbrella when it will rain tomorrow.This time should be to ask yourself if you have eaten.

Because of Lu Xiaofeng, Cheng Yan also had a wrong stereotype of the traffic police group, thinking that they are all idle and like to chatter.

"Today we had dinner at work, and an intern asked us to introduce someone. She said that she likes handsome and smart people. I immediately thought of you, haha."

Which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted, Cheng Yan smiled at the phone unconsciously, and replied to him, "Handsome and smart, aren't you yourself?"

After replying to the message, he put the phone back into his pocket, so that if he pretended not to expect the reply, the time would pass faster.

This time it was Lu Xiaofeng's turn to get busy with something, so he didn't send another sentence for a long time.

Cheng Yan went into the bathroom to take a shower, and when he came out wet, the first thing he did was to pick up his cell phone - still nothing.He put his phone on the coffee table in the living room and went to sleep in the guest room by himself.Woke up in the morning to buy soy milk and fried dough sticks for his father, and only picked up the phone before going out. There was really new news.

"Great talent, I've come to join you in the city, when are you free to come out and get together?"

It wasn't the message from Lu Xiaofeng, but the school tyrant Lao Qin who fawned on him when he was studying.

It's funny to say that Cheng Yan has never had a close relationship with any of his alumni or former colleagues these years.The only one who has not lost contact is this old Qin.

When Cheng Yan's father had an accident and all relatives could not be contacted for fear of being borrowed money from their family.Cheng Yan returned to his former high school and wanted to sell his house to raise money.Just happened to run into Lao Qin on the streets of the county town.

Cheng Yan, who was walking in the crowd, was always so eye-catching, tall and handsome like a master, Lao Qin called out his name all of a sudden, and pulled Cheng Yan to his place as a guest.

Cheng Yan is about to graduate from university, and Lao Qin is still a school bully.

Hearing that Cheng Yan studied at one of the best universities in China, Lao Qin squeezed his hand excitedly. I didn't miss it at the beginning, this guy really is a talent.

After drinking a few times together, Cheng Yan realized that Lao Qin was a shrewd person, but he was actually a rough man who would say whatever he wanted when getting along.

Over the past few years, the contact between the two has been maintained intermittently.

Originally, when Lao Qin had nothing to talk to him about on WeChat, Cheng Yan would reply in a cooperative way.

The mistake is that today's message was sent at an inappropriate time, Cheng Yan is waiting for Lu Xiaofeng's reply.Lao Qin had no idea that the news of his own oolong would bring Cheng Yan a sense of loss from heaven to hell.

"I don't have time to entertain you, go sleep on the street." Cheng Yan replied to Lao Qin with a blank expression.

"Woohoo!" Lao Qin imitated his little girlfriend's way of speaking, sending disgusting Cheng Yan.

After appeasing his father's emotions, Cheng Yan got on the train back at night.

His father originally wanted to go out to see him off, but was scared back by the stepmother's eyes.Once a man has no money in his pocket, his status in the family will drop sharply.

Cheng Yan lay on the hard sleeper, thinking back to the man who used to be the big boss, now living such a useless life, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

If his son was promising enough, his father wouldn't have to work so hard at such a young age.

On the night when the father and son drank together, his father said something at that time: "Son, you have to live up to your expectations and show yourself!"

Hearing the sound of the train, Cheng Yan stayed up all night.After returning home, he still has to face the bottleneck of his career and the covetous Xu Zhiguo. His heart has already begun to shake because of his father's words.

Cheng Yan came back early, so he didn't have to go to the research institute to work, and stayed in the gym all afternoon.Even though he said no mercy to Lao Qin, he still called Lao Qin and asked him if he had entered the city and found a place to stay.

Cheng Yan was invited to the bar by Lao Qin.

Fortunately, the place was not too noisy, but the stage lights flickering from time to time made Cheng Yan's eyes uncomfortable.Seeing that there was no one behind Cheng Yan, Lao Qin asked boringly, "Why don't you bring any friends over here, colleagues or something?"

Cheng Yan said calmly and confidently: "I don't like making friends."

"It's worth it..." Lao Qin waved his hand, let's drink it together.

To Lao Qin's surprise, since Cheng Yan's arrival, soon some people purposely sat in the seats next to them and struck up a conversation with them.Lao Qin immediately added the WeChat accounts of several beautiful girls.He was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear, and quietly boasted that Cheng Yan was still so handsome.

Cheng Yan casually raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.Threatened by Lao Qin, told him not to discharge random discharges.

On the way, Cheng Yan also answered a phone call from CoCo.The project that Xu Zhiguo handed over to her from Cheng Yan was too difficult, and all the PLs hoped that the original supervisor would come back.She asked Cheng Yan to give in to Xu Zhiguo tomorrow, so that he could rejoin everyone.

Cheng Yan sat under the purple light, watching the performance on the stage.Frustrated, although he was in the crowd, he felt extremely lonely. Listening to the lyrics sung by the singer, he couldn't help asking himself why life is like this?

Xu Zhiguo, stepmother, ABCD members of the project team, passers-by A, B, C, D, his life always revolves around these insignificant roles, exhausting his mind.

And the people he really wants to meet...the people he really cares about...the meeting is all in a dream.
