"Leaving today?" The worker looked at Jian Yao packing up, and asked with some reluctance, "Then are you coming back?"

Another worker next to him slapped him on the back and said with a stare, "What are you talking about? He went back to study, got a good college entrance examination, and then went on to pursue his career. What are you doing when you come back? Do you work on the assembly line like us?"

Jian Yao stayed in the factory for more than half a year, but still made a few friends.

Most of these friends came from the countryside, and they couldn’t get into school, or they didn’t realize the benefits of studying when they were young, and only felt that studying was tiring. Although working part-time is a bit tiring, they can earn money.

By the time they realized the benefits of studying, it was too late, and their income could not be lost at home, so they were embarrassed and did not have the courage to go back to school.

Few are willing to go to adult education.

At the beginning, when Jian Yao took out the book to review, she would be laughed at by the co-workers in the same dormitory. After a long time, every time Jian Yao reviewed, the co-workers would subconsciously lower the volume of the mobile phone, or go outside the dormitory to make calls.

It may be because Jian Yao is too serious, so serious that they can no longer laugh at it as a joke.

The workers were all reluctant to part with Jian Yao. Jian Yao's personality was not lively, and he rarely smiled, but he never talked too much. If one day he could make him laugh by telling a joke, it would be considered a pleasant surprise.

Because Jian Yao seemed to be a different person when he laughed.

At that moment, everyone who sees his smiling face will feel better and be infected by his smile.

It's hard to hate him.

In particular, there are no conflicts of interest between co-workers, so Jian Yao has become the "youngest" in the dormitory, even though he is not the youngest here.

The youngest worker in the dormitory has just turned seventeen.

After packing up his things, Jian Yao stood up, and he smiled: "I'll come and see you when I have time, and if you are still working here, you can also contact me by phone, and I can always make an appointment."

The workers blessed: "You will definitely be admitted to a good university."

"If you work so hard, who else can if you don't get in? When you are admitted to university, we will treat you to dinner."

They sent Jian Yao away from the factory and watched him get on the bus.

After Jian Yao left, they whispered: "I always feel that he has suffered some kind of psychological trauma."

"I feel the same way. He is often in a daze alone, and he doesn't answer when he is called."

"I haven't seen him call his family for so long. Maybe something happened at home?"

The workers sighed for a while. They watched the buttocks of the bus drive out of sight before entering the factory gate.

Jian Yao dragged his suitcase back to school, and the head teacher who had taken him for three years was waiting for him at the school gate. The head teacher was a rich middle-aged woman, she couldn't hold back when she saw Jian Yao, and rushed over to hug him.

Originally, Jian Yao thought he would cry, but in fact he could only curl the corners of his mouth with difficulty, unable to squeeze out a single tear.

The head teacher patted Jian Yao's shoulder, her eyes were flushed, and she suppressed her emotions and said, "Let's go, advanced school, I'll take you to report."

This time the head teacher is leading the second year of high school. Jian Yao can't stay in the head teacher's class any longer. He wants to join the third year of high school with the repeat students. Now there is no "Senior Four" in the school, and there will be no separate class for the repeat students.

Returning to the familiar campus, Jian Yao walked through the green aisle. The younger students were in a hurry, with yearning or impatience for campus life on their faces. Someone secretly looked at Jian Yao, and seemed to think that this person looked familiar.

In high school, Jian Yao was considered a legend in the school.

Not only because of his good grades, after all, their school has the highest enrollment rate in the city, and no matter how good his grades are, there is nothing surprising about him. He even won the national champion last year.

It was because of Jian Yao's appearance and experience.

According to the current popular words, it is beautiful, strong and miserable.

He looks good, has a strong learning ability, and has a miserable personal experience.

After Jian Yao reported, he was taken to the dormitory.

The students in the same dormitory as him are all repeat students, Jian Yao doesn't know them because they are one year younger than him, but these students who are one year younger than him all know him.

The students are very curious about Jian Yao's experience. They had no chance to contact him before, but now they live in the same dormitory and they always look for opportunities to ask Jian Yao why he didn't go to the university to report and why he came back to repeat his studies.

Jian Yao didn't answer them.

He is not very interested in interpersonal communication now, he just wants to finish this year according to his own expectations, and leave after being admitted to university.

"Why is he so proud?"

When Jian Yao was not around, the schoolmates liked to use the word proud when they mentioned him.

"Good grades are good grades, and you don't care about people."

"He walks alone all day long. I don't remember him being like this before."

"That's right, that's right, I heard from the seniors in the previous year that Jian Yao is a very nice person, but she always has to work and has no time to make friends."

"How did he become what he is now?"

"Maybe the blow was too big? I didn't get into the university I wanted to get into, but he got into it but failed."

"I don't have any parents, and I don't think I have much money in my hands. It's quite miserable."

"...That's right, if I were him, I might collapse."

"But what does that have to do with me? So what if he's pitiful? I didn't recruit him or provoke him, and he wouldn't do anything if he asked him to talk about it."

"That is, his grades are so good, how much time will it take him to explain a question to us?"

Jian Yao only found out that he was isolated at the end of last semester.

Roommates usually don't bring him to dinners, and they don't let him join in chats.

It's just that Jian Yao didn't feel sad, he even felt that such a life without being disturbed was good, he didn't need to deal with anyone, he could concentrate on his studies, only when he was doing the questions could he stop thinking about the world in the book.

Jian Yao also knew that his state was not right, he became more and more insensitive to the encounters in the real world, he lost interest in everything except learning, and even learning did not come from interest, but only set a goal for himself to keep him focused.

Another year has passed.

Jian Yao got into the first choice as he wished.

But the moment he got the admission notice, he was not as happy as he imagined.

Instead, I felt lost and empty.

After achieving his goal, he didn't know what to do with himself.

There was no need to attend classes, no homework to write, and he used a pencil to erase all the papers in the rented house, until he felt like vomiting, Jian Yao finally made a decision.

He wanted to go back to the book.

Even if the world in the book is just his illusion and conjecture, even if only endless nothingness greets him in the end.

Since he returned to reality, Jian Yao spent two years trying to adapt again, wanting to forget everything in the book, and wanting to live his life according to his own plan, but in the end he found that he couldn't do it at all.

He missed Jian Anzhi, his grandparents, and the world that was obviously full of malice but made him feel happy.

And Huo Yan...

When he first passed through the book, he didn't regard Huo Yan as an equal "person", but a character in the book with various labels. He wanted to help Huo Yan only because he pitied Huo Yan.

But now Jian Yao doesn't think so.

For him, Huo Yan is the only living friend in his life.

There are his relatives and friends in that world. He would rather live in illusion than continue to face reality.

On the day of university registration, Jian Yao did not show up at the school.

When the registration ended, he still didn't show up.

When the head teacher received the news, he hurried to Jian Yao's rental house.

She was so nervous that she fell several times when going up the stairs, and her husband had to carefully protect her.

The door was opened by the master lock picker, and the homeroom teacher walked in together with the community security. They found Jian Yao "asleep" on the bed.

Jian Yao's body was not injured, and his complexion did not change. There was even a blush on his cheeks, as if he was in a happy dream.

The head teacher patted Jian Yao's cheek and called Jian Yao's name, but he couldn't wake him up, but Jian Yao was still breathing, so after two years, Jian Yao was sent to the hospital again.

He is alive, but he cannot be called alive.

·

"You slept too long, too."

Jian Yao heard a familiar voice, which made him want to jump up with excitement, but his eyelids were too heavy, he couldn't open his eyes, and his body couldn't move at all.

Chen Mei sat beside Jian Yao's bed. She looked completely different from her high school days. She had big wavy hair, light makeup on her face, and a black professional suit.

At the beginning, she would cry every time she came to visit Jian Yao, but now she can chat with Jian Yao calmly.

"Huo Yan probably won't be able to come and see you today." Chen Mei looked at Jian Yao's face.

I don't know if it's her illusion, but she always feels that Jian Yao's complexion is better than usual today.

Chen Mei continued: "Something happened to him, but it's not a big deal."

She lowered her eyes: "Zhou Zhibo shot him and hit him in the shoulder."

There was hatred in Chen Mei's words: "He is a different person now, he is no longer the Huo Yan you know."

"Because of him, many people lost their jobs. My boyfriend was originally in the Zhou Group, but now he can't even pay the rent."

"You became like this because he left you behind."

Chen Mei gently held Jian Yao's hand, and her voice was soft: "I hope you wake up, and I hope you don't wake up."

Now Huo Yan has become the actual person in charge of the Zhou Group, but he has not joined the board of directors. The boss of the Zhou Group is still Zhou Sheng, but Zhou Sheng can't fight against him at all. Huo Yan can do whatever he wants, no one can. Can't stop him.

The Zhou Group is like a toy in his hands, and he doesn't know what will happen to this toy.

Numerous subsidiaries of the Zhou Group went bankrupt and their employees lost their jobs.

Chen Mei once persuaded him that even if the Zhou family members are not good people, those employees and their family members are innocent. So many people are unemployed, but there are not so many jobs in society to accommodate them.

How many families will be torn apart?

But what did Huo Yan say at that time?

Huo Yan said at the time: "I don't care."

Chen Mei: "My boyfriend's mother is still lying in the hospital! He needs money! But with his resume, he can't find a job with the same salary as before!"

At that time, Huo Yan was wearing a suit and sitting behind the desk. There was no smile on his face for a long time. Instead, he carried the calm prestige of a superior. He didn't explain anything to her, but said: "Their life and death are the same What do I matter?"

"Or do you think I'm really a good person who thinks of others?"

Chen Mei couldn't hold back: "Maybe it's because you have become like this that Jian Yao doesn't want to wake up?"

"Otherwise, when he wakes up, how can he face a cruel hypocrite?"

Huo Yan was not irritated by her, and only frowned slightly when she mentioned Jian Yao. He looked at her coldly, and then asked the secretary to see off the guests.

Now the Zhou family is his world, even if he has not changed his surname.

No one dared to disobey him, until this time, people finally believed that he was not a good man, but a "tyrant".

Everything he does doesn't think about the consequences.

As long as he thinks of it, he will do it, and he doesn't care whether it will hurt others.

Chen Mei held Jian Yao's hand slowly, and she didn't know why it became like this. When Huo Yan just returned to Zhou's house, everything was fine. She stayed in Anyang County and followed Huo Yan together with Zhou Yi. Yan's movement.

At that time, they were sincerely worried about Huo Yan, fearing that Huo Yan would be hurt, rejected and used.

The reality turned out to be completely different from what they expected.

Huo Yan was admitted to Capital University, and has been an intern at Zhou Corporation during college, handling the company's affairs, and even became Zhou Corporation's press spokesperson for a while, even the press conference of new products was hosted by Huo Yan.

In the year Chen Mei graduated from university, Huo Yan had already led several brand acquisitions of the Zhou Group. Gossip even said that he led the bankruptcy of several competing companies. Whether it was controlling the stock market or using public opinion, anyone who was against him People, it's all miserable in the end.

At that time, Chen Mei still didn't believe it. She thought she knew Huo Yan. Huo Yan was not a cruel person. He was smart, but also very gentle.

But when the reality was before her eyes, Chen Mei realized that she had never known Huo Yan before.

Huo Yan is born without human feelings, he may not care about attacking those who have no contact with him.

Even when a competitor jumped off a building, when the media went to interview him, he would only calmly say: "I hope his family members mourn."

As for the Zhou family...

Chen Mei didn't think about it any further.

She didn't know how Jian Yao would feel when he woke up and found out that Huo Yan was this kind of person.

At least she couldn't accept that her childhood friend turned out to be a devil, a lunatic with no feelings at all.

But Huo Yan is very kind to Jane's family. He would visit in person with presents every year during festivals. Even though Jian Anzhi never let him enter the gate of Jane's house, he was able to stand at the gate of Jane's house all night. leave again.

Not for one year, but for several years in a row.

It's just that Jian Anzhi has never softened her heart. Maybe she once softened her heart, but after Huo Yan's great achievements, she hardened her heart again, but Huo Yan was really protecting her.

Jian Anzhi's book has been reprinted countless times, and she gets a higher share. She doesn't even need to write a new book to make money lying down.

But she never touched that money, and she never wrote a book again, but lived on her previous savings.

Chen Mei wanted to continue talking, but suddenly found that Jian Yao's fingers in her hand seemed to move slightly.

Chen Mei immediately stood up, and she shouted: "Is there anyone?! Come! Jian Yao has responded!"

She opened the door of the ward and rushed out excitedly to find the doctor.

The doctor brought the nurse and Chen Mei to the ward together.

But they were dumbfounded as soon as they opened the door.

Jian Yao, who was slender and out of shape, was sitting cross-legged on the hospital bed, holding an apple in his hand, eating it sweetly.

The light of the incandescent lamp shone on him, and his pale face was bloodless, like a dead person who had just been resurrected.

But Jian Yao didn't realize his current appearance, he grinned at the doctor in a good mood, and said with some embarrassment: "I'm so hungry, I saw an apple next to me and ate it, this... ...Should be able to eat it?"

At the end of the question, Jian Yao's tone became cautious.

Although he didn't know the time now, he knew that he was "back".

Jian Yao didn't recognize Chen Mei, Chen Mei had changed too much, her face was not as round as it was in high school, she had lost a lot of weight, from a round face to a slightly wider oval face, her figure also changed, from The girl has become a woman, and her dress is not the same as before.

However, Jian Yao thought that the leader was a doctor - because the other party was wearing a white coat, he couldn't recognize that he was lame.

Seeing their shocked looks, Jian Yao held back his excitement and asked, "Where's my mother? Where's Huo Yan? Can you give me a mobile phone so I can call them?"

"By the way, can I have noodles? I want to eat burning noodles, and mixed sauce noodles are also available. I'm very hungry now."

It's a pity that the doctor didn't answer his words immediately, but immediately organized students and nurses to examine Jian Yao.

During the examination, the doctor took a deep breath and went to the corridor to make a phone call.

The doctor's surname is Chu, who was "invited" by Huo Yan at a high price. He asked for a lot of money, and Huo Yan was not stingy, not only gave the negotiated price when he picked him up, but also promised that as long as Jian Yao woke up, Will pay him twice as much.

But if Jian Yao has not woken up, then he has to "treat" Jian Yao all the time.

If Jian Yao didn't wake up for a while, he had to take care of him for a while.

If Jian Yao never woke up, he had to take care of him for the rest of his life.

Dr. Chu took out his mobile phone with trembling hands, and called Huo Yan. At this moment, he felt that the years of waiting were worth it. Now that Jian Yao woke up, he didn't have to continue to see patients in the future. The money he got was enough for him to spend his whole life.

After the phone rang a few times and was connected, Dr. Chu heard a familiar voice. He immediately suppressed his excitement and said seriously: "Mr. Huo, I have some good news for you. Mr. Jian is awake."

After several seconds, Dr. Chu didn't hear the other party's voice.

It wasn't until something fell to the ground and the sound of glass shattering came from the receiver that he heard Huo Yan calmly say, "Say it again?"

Doctor Chu was a little nervous, he couldn't hear Huo Yan's emotions, so he repeated cautiously: "Mr. Jian is awake."

A few seconds later, he heard the sound of tables and chairs moving again.

"Keep an eye on him, I'll be right over."

"If something happens to him before I come here, I will keep you from walking out of the hospital gate for the rest of your life."

Dr. Chu listened to the busy tone on the phone in confusion.

no!Why is he being threatened at this time!

·

"Brother Huo, where are you going?" The secretary followed Huo Yan, carefully sizing up Huo Yan's expression, and asked softly, "I'll arrange a car right away."

Huo Yan walked out of the office. He strode like a star, and his actions were windy. Even if his face was expressionless, people could see his eagerness: "No need, I will drive by myself."

The secretary thought about it and asked, "Is it something related to Mr. Jian?"

The secretary came to Huo Yan's side two years ago. No matter how the outside world described Huo Yan, in the eyes of the secretary, Huo Yan was strong and self-reliant, like a demon king who would never be defeated. He worshiped Huo Yan and yearned for Huo Yan.

But the person whom he admires so much has a weakness that no one else can mention.

A vegetative person who has been lying on a hospital bed for nearly seven years.

The secretary pursed her lips: "You haven't eaten lunch yet, or you can go after eating."

But Huo Yan ignored him, and walked directly into the elevator, the elevator door closed, and the secretary was also locked out of the door.

The secretary gritted her teeth, clenched her hands into fists, and could only wait for the elevator to come up.

Huo Yan went directly to the parking lot below. After getting into the car, he untied his tie, threw it aside, even took off his coat, and only wore a shirt. He pulled down the rearview mirror and looked at the mirror I laugh at myself.

He didn't start the car until he confirmed that he looked the same as before, and the smile on his face was as gentle as before, before he started the car and went straight to the hospital.

It may be because after years of waiting, Huo Yan finally got an answer, Huo Yan did not encounter a red light in the whole process.

When the car stopped at the gate of the nursing home and Huo Yan opened the door, he finally felt a kind of nervousness that was close to nostalgia.

In the past few years, he has seen all kinds of looks, resentful, fearful, and jealous, but he didn't take them seriously, because those people were nothing to him.

But what if Jian Yao looked at him like that?

Huo Yan's footsteps became slower and heavier, but he still walked forward firmly.

He took the elevator and came to the floor where Jian Yao was. Doctor Chu was waiting for him at the door of the elevator. Huo Yan didn't ask anything, but went to the ward together with Doctor Chu.

Just as he walked to the door of the ward, Huo Yan heard a voice that haunted him.

"You are Chen Mei?!"

"It's a big change, it's all so beautiful now."

"Can I really not eat noodles?"

"When is Huo Yan coming? Why did my mother change her number?"

Huo Yan stood at the door of the ward, his eyes turned slightly red, but he forcibly suppressed his emotions, and slowly pushed open the half-hidden door.

The moment the door opened, Huo Yan's heart seemed to be in his throat.

Then--

The person he had always kept on top of his heart looked up and saw him.

The other party was smiling at him.

As bright as in memory.

"Huo Yan!"

The other party opened his arms towards him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a few white teeth were exposed.

The other party's voice was very small, but he could clearly catch it.

"Come here, let me hug you."

Huo Yan didn't know how he took his steps, he only knew that when he came back to his senses, he had embraced his whole world in his arms.

No one can ever take this man from his arms again.

Whether it is fate or gods and Buddhas.
