Middle-aged Love Patch

For 20 years, Xu Youyuan has never been to an Internet cafe.

The last time I came to an Internet cafe, I was still in junior high school. At that time, she was already an Internet-addicted girl. Apart from doing homework, she played games every day. Once she played a dozen games, she became the king. Her academic performance dropped by more than ten, and her eyesight also severely deteriorated.Parents strictly forbid her from playing, the tablet is closed and the computer is locked, and even the mobile phone is turned on for parental monitoring.

It's not that she hasn't tried to control her mind before, but she doesn't feel good if she doesn't play games. She made an excuse to go to Shi Ye's house to study, and dragged Shi Ye to go to the Internet cafe together behind her parents' back.

That was the first time they went to an Internet cafe, and it was the only time when they were students.

Shi Ye was not addicted to games, so he sat on the sidelines and browsed Weibo to make data for the idol Lunbo that he liked at the time.Xu Youyuan wore earphones and immersed herself in the game world. She played for three hours, and Shiye finally persuaded her to go back when her butt was sore and crying.

I came to the Internet cafe again because the renting room was out of power.

Xu Youyuan came back from lunch in a depressed mood, put on a facial mask, and originally wanted to take a good bath and go to bed early, but unexpectedly, when the water heater was turned on, sparks flashed out, and the lights in the room were all lit up Brush all dark.

Xu Youyuan checked it out, and the landlord didn't know which second-hand market the landlord bought it from. It was printed with the four characters of Ariston, but the LOGO looked like a copycat no matter what.

The sparks that flashed should be due to a problem with the thermostat. Xu Youyuan unplugged the water heater, switched the switch back, and dared not plug it in again.I called the landlord to explain the situation, and the landlord said "ahah" perfunctorily:

"Then you change it."

Xu Youyuan: "I change?"

"That's right. When the house was rented to you, all the electrical appliances were in good condition. Shouldn't you replace the broken ones?"

"But it was stated in the contract at the time that when the home appliances were aging and unusable, the landlord would repair them."

"The home appliances I gave you are all new. How long have you lived here? Why are they getting old?"

"It's simple, I can take apart the furniture, and I can definitely find the date of manufacture..."

"I have no money to exchange." The landlord interrupted her, "At the beginning, I said I would rent it to you for 9000, but you insisted on lowering it to 8800, which is already lower than the market price. Girl, let's have fun secretly when you get a bargain, and don't push yourself. What do you say? It is clearly stated in the contract, then you can sue me with the contract!"

Xu Youyuan wanted to say something else, but the landlord hung up the phone and didn't give her a chance to continue reasoning.

Xu Youyuan felt a little regretful that she shouldn't pay a year's rent all at once, and now she has no choice but to move out.

She used to think that she had enough social experience and had seen all kinds of ghosts and snakes, but now it seems that she just has a better understanding of the habitual class.Once she changed the environment and met someone who completely ignored the law and had no moral bottom line, she couldn't do anything about it.

Xu Youyuan brought a toolbox, intending to disassemble the water heater and try to repair it by herself, whether it is possible to replace the thermostat.I just loosened a screw and suddenly the light went dark again.

Did it trip again?Or someone wanted to break into the house and rob her, and turned off the switch to trick her out?

Xu Youyuan tiptoed to the cat, Ah Shuang didn't know what she was going to do, so she followed excitedly, panting hahaha, and slapped her tail on the door.

"Hush! Ah Shuang, sit down." Xu Youyuan gestured to it, and Ah Shuang sat down obediently.

"What's going on, power outage?"

"It seems that only our floor has stopped."

"No way! I wrote the PRD all afternoon!"

"What the hell, there is no notification!"

Hearing that neighbors in the corridor were complaining, Xu Youyuan was slightly relieved, it seemed that there was a real power outage.

I opened the door and went out to communicate with the neighbors. Someone said that a call might come in an hour.

Everyone asked: "Really? Is there a notice?"

The man said: "No."

"Then how do you know?"

"intuition."

"..."

Xu Youyuan heard the voice of this intuitive buddy a little familiar. The buddy didn't feel cold in shorts and a vest in Da Shenqiu. A girl almost hung on him since he went out, and never left her.

Xu Youyuan suddenly realized, isn't this the couple who quarreled and demolished the house all day long?Hearing the two of them quarreling over trivial matters every day, even though they have never met each other, they have almost mastered all the information from their occupations to their eight generations of ancestors, but today is the first time I see the deity.

Xu Youyuan watched the young couple secretly, but unexpectedly, someone was also watching her secretly at this time.

Yi Rushuang stayed up too late the day before, originally thinking of working hard to catch up with her boss as soon as possible.Unexpectedly, I didn't catch up with the pace, and developed a fever instead. The fever reached 39 degrees, and I had to ask for leave today to recuperate at home.

Yi Rushuang watched Xu Youyuan come out of that room, wearing a dark green silk pajamas, which looked expensive, with a facial mask and a pink hair band, she definitely wasn't the aunt who fell down that day and lived alone.

Changing tenants so soon?Yi Rushuang didn't seem to have seen anyone move. It seemed that it was a good thing for an aunt living alone to have a cohabitant. At least she didn't have to worry about suddenly smelling the stench of a dead body one day.

After returning home, Xu Youyuan passed by the mirror and felt that something was wrong. There was still a mask on her face, so she went out like this? !

What kind of demon is it today, and I am ashamed of my old face.

After peeling off the dried mask, Xu Youyuan wanted to repair the water heater.It was almost seven o'clock at this time, and the smog was very serious today, and there was no sunshine for a whole day, and now there was a power outage, and the house was dark and blind, and nothing could be seen.

Not to mention the water heater, she still has a proposal to be perfected, and the first draft of the business draft needs to be finalized, so she can only go to the Internet cafe first, and hope that the call will come when she returns.

After feeding Ah Shuang, Xu Youyuan went to a nearby Internet cafe with her drawing board in her arms and a big bag on her back. When she entered the door, she almost laughed out loud.

When I was in junior high school, I went to an Internet cafe, and the room was full of people wearing earphones and shouting and clicking their mouse like crazy.Now when I go to the Internet cafe, everyone sticks to the access crystal and lies on the sofa, which is completely a large corpse scene.

Xu Youyuan sat down in a corner and started to write.

When Shi Ye and Shi Yue found this Internet cafe and saw her working hard, their hearts finally landed smoothly.

Shi Ye originally wanted to go forward to chat with Xu Youyuan, but was stopped by Shi Yue.

"Let her work hard, she can forget a lot of things while working." Shi Yue stared at Xu Youyuan's meticulous profile for a long time, her eyes reluctant to move away.

Sitting in front of the computer for two hours, the time flies, when Xu Youyuan thinks about moving again, when she moves, her waist hurts like a needle prick.

I'm a little tired, but I've calmed down a lot.

Compared with the unwillingness and humiliation of wanting to fight Liu Feng on the spot at noon but forcing myself to keep calm, I am just tired now.

After being tired, Liu Feng's face and sarcasm came to mind again.

Of course she knew that there was no need to care, but who could really not care about face-to-face humiliation.

Xu Youyuan could only comfort herself, look forward, ignore the dog barking behind her, and find something else to divert her attention.

Xu Youyuan's eyesight fatigue was a bit severe, and she couldn't open it after staring at the electronic screen for a long time, and she was already a little uncomfortable at the moment.

Take out the access crystals that reshape the universe, and plan to go up to see the mining situation, and upgrade the equipment by the way.

So he joined the corpse army.

Reshaping the universe For players who don't have money, the initial process of developing planets is still very boring.

Xu Youyuan tried other quick upgrade methods, even cheating, but none of them worked.

It seems that after she left SQUALL, her own son has been completely transformed and turned into a wild cub that the six relatives do not recognize.

Xu Youyuan, wearing a second-level collection arm, squatted on the ground and drilled down.

Probably because hee hee hee had been good for a while and didn't bother her, Xu Youyuan didn't think about this monkey at all this time.

When she let down her vigilance, it was when the leather monkeys came and went.

After a long time of no movement, it will be too late for me to beat you. The Lard Cake Planet began to tremble slightly again. The collection arm in Xu Youyuan's hand squeaked, and the three iron claws huddled together, as if they had sensed the crisis at the same time as their master.

Xu Youyuan turned her head and saw the majestic figure of the SS-level monster Poseidon.

Poseidon, the god of the sea, sat on the golden chariot, with thick golden curly hair and a thick beard standing on end, giving off a murderous look.The strong arms raised the sharp trident, the diamond-like muscles and the giant wheels almost crushed this small planet.

Xu Youyuan ran into the cabin as fast as she could, but it was actually too late to run now.Poseidon has one of the best agility among all SS-level monsters, no matter how godly he moves, without equipment and vehicles, he can only die if he is forked into dust by his fork.

Unexpectedly, she ran wildly without looking back, and actually returned to the cabin alive.

He looked out wonderingly, and found that Poseidon's target was not himself, but another player hiding in the distance.

Who is not "hee hee hee hee"?

The golden chariot approached the hill with a bang, and Xihehexi, who was hiding behind the hill, saw that he could no longer hide, so he had to run away.

Poseidon's speed is extremely fast, even though hee hee hee hee hee hee this local tyrant was wearing the epic vehicle "Flash of the Universe", he was stabbed by the trident before the flash, and rolled in a very embarrassing situation, the vehicle shattered He lost his leg and wanted to dodge again, but lost his balance, and the whole person drew more than half a circle in the air, and hit the ground hard.

Poseidon chased wildly, hehehehe had no choice but to dodge after hitting the ground, he was always faster than himself.

Every time it flashes, a perfect semicircle can be seen in the sky above the planet, and there is an extra crater hit by the head on the ground.

Xu Youyuan couldn't stop laughing, which attracted the attention of other Internet cafes.

This hee hee hee hee has pulled so many monsters, this time it can be regarded as the feedback of evil force.

After removing the access crystal, Xu Youyuan opened her eyes and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, feeling much better.

It's not a good mentality to enjoy watching other people's misfortune.Xu Youyuan calmed down, moved her arms, and continued to work.

Shi Yue, who asked her sister to take a taxi home by herself and made excuses to go back to the company, did not leave at all. She sat in an inconspicuous corner and took off the access crystal that reshaped the universe.

Shi Yue took out something from her pocket, it was an extremely delicate figure of a vampire, the vampire smiled, showing a small fang on one side, beautiful and cunning.

She stroked the figurine lightly, and felt relieved to see the smile on the corner of Xu Youyuan's mouth, the foolishness just now was not in vain.

Xu Youyuan stayed in the Internet cafe until ten o'clock in the evening, and the call came when she got home.

When passing by the market just now, she saw some discounted spare ribs, so she packed them all and brought them back, leaving a few for Ah Shuang, and using the rest for soup.

After stewing until midnight, take it out and drink it. The meat is burnt and the cooking wine is a bit too much. The taste is really not good.

In the past, Xiaoan was not good at cooking, and the two went from disgusting each other to finally admitting defeat, and ate takeaway every meal.

I'd better order takeaway next time, it's more oily and salty, but at least it's delicious and saves trouble.

……

I thought it was over, but I didn't expect that NCOUNT company agreed to cooperate with him when Liu Feng received an email the next day.

Liu Feng's hangover brain didn't react for a while.

Didn't that surname look down on him? Before finding Bai Rui for a recommendation, Liu Feng himself contacted him, but NCOUNT didn't give him any reply.After finally getting an appointment with someone, Shi Shi didn't even look at him.

I thought that putting up a power would make her look a little higher, but in the blink of an eye, everyone disappeared.Liu Feng had already determined that this matter was pornographic, and arrested a group of people for drinking and getting drunk. Didn't expect it to happen?

It seems that this so-called genius is just a kid in his early twenties who thinks he's just a kid, so it's easy to deceive.

Liu Feng was overjoyed, and replied to the email in person, planning to hold a press conference and invite the business media to promote it.

Living in the suburbs is not without its advantages. In addition to going to the vegetable market every day to buy a batch of special meat before the stall closes, there is also a large second-hand market.

The flea market is not far from Juheyuan, where Xu Youyuan lives, and it takes only 15 minutes to drive a scooter.

It is said that the second-hand market is actually a garbage dump. A large amount of urban garbage is dumped here, and the slightly better and usable ones are pulled into a fence, and people come to pick them every day.Copper parts can also be removed from other scrapped home appliances, and the price of bare copper can already be sold for 50 yuan a catty.

Other small parts of old household appliances can also be sold separately. Xu Youyuan went to pick out the thermostat, and she really found one that seemed to work. When she went back and pressed it, the water heater could be used normally again.

Xu Youyuan wandered around the flea market for several days, bought a lot of things, and even found a replacement for the damaged key parts of the 3D printer. The printing accuracy is definitely not as good as the original one, but it is enough for daily printing.

There are many people coming and going in this flea market, and there are also people from large enterprises who come here to buy raw materials and drag them back to refine them.Xu Youyuan was very moved by seeing it, and even wanted to join the waste business.

Just as she was tossing around with a pile of waste products to assemble an old gaming desktop, she received a call from her aunt.

Seeing her aunt's profile picture displayed on the computer screen, Xu Youyuan, who was sitting on the futon and playing Civilization 6, immediately felt flustered.

After her mother passed away, her father lived alone. Xu Youyuan also wanted him to move in, but he refused.He didn't like life in the big city, that was said long ago.

The older her father became, the more stubborn she became. Xu Youyuan didn't want to go against him and left him the last sum of money she had at that time.

That money may not be able to live a luxurious life, at least the life of living alone can be worry-free.

She later confessed the money to Xiao An, and Xiao An didn't care too much about it.

Xu Youyuan was very worried about her father when she came back from her hometown after finishing the funeral, but she had to leave because she had a lot of things to deal with, so she had to entrust her aunt to take care of her.

My aunt usually doesn't get in touch with her very much, but now she suddenly made a video call, and Xu Youyuan knew that it must be related to her father.

After connecting to the video, my aunt looked very haggard, her hair was not taken care of, and she asked as soon as she opened her mouth, "Youyuan, are you free to come back?"

"What happened to my dad?"

"You'll know when you come back."

Xu Youyuan was even more anxious when her aunt said that, she quickly booked a ticket to go home, and left Ah Shuang in a pet shop outside the community.

When Xu Youyuan came out of the vacuum station, her aunt came to pick her up, but instead of going home, she went directly to the hospital.

"It's okay, don't worry, your dad just fell down."

Xu Youyuan couldn't believe what her aunt said in the car.

"Did you fall hard? Where did you fall? What else happened?"

Facing Xu Youyuan's repeated questioning, the aunt smiled and said, "It's not too serious. The soft tissue contusion is just painful, and it's just that I can't walk for a while. The doctor said it's not a big deal."

The aunt can speak in detail, so it should not be a lie, Xu Youyuan noticed that she hesitated to speak.

"Auntie, is there anything else?"

"Hey... Originally, your father didn't let me tell you. He knew you had an accident some time ago and didn't want to disturb your work. But he is just a daughter like you. Tingting is no longer here. If you don't take care of him, who else can you do?" Take care of it?" Tingting is Xu Youyuan's mother who passed away, and her aunt had tears in her eyes when she said, "Since Tingting left, your father has started drinking again. When you open your eyes in the morning, the wine glass will not leave your hand, and you will not eat. , Drinking until midnight. I persuaded him several times, but he asked me, why don’t you drink? What else can he do? As long as he doesn’t drink, he will think of Tingting, it’s too painful... Your parents How good the relationship is, I watched all the way here. He said that, what can I answer him?"

Xu Youyuan: "Then this fall was also due to alcoholism?"

The aunt sobbed and nodded: "I really don't want to disturb you, but it's not the first time I fell, and each time it gets worse. I'm afraid the next time it's not just a soft tissue contusion. You Yuan, only you can persuade him, Come back this time and have a good chat with him, if not, you can take him to live with you. Your father is getting old, and you are divorced now, so living by yourself is quite lonely."

Xu Youyuan just nodded, and when the car was approaching the entrance of the hospital, her aunt murmured softly: "At the beginning you wanted to marry that woman, and your family objected, but your parents agreed, and we outsiders don't have much to say. .But who knows what will happen in the future? If you live a normal life and give birth to a child for your dad, your dad won't..."

Xu Youyuan didn't hear the next few words clearly, and didn't want to hear clearly, so she hurriedly got out of the car and ran to the ward.

When I walked to the door of the ward and was about to enter, the passing patient of a family murmured softly:

"Wow, it's really the one who makes games!"

"I said it was her father who lived in it."

"Isn't she in jail, why is she released again?"
