Chapter 552 Congratulations

   Next.

When the shopkeeper was shocked by this reversal, the knives hit her one after another: "...the spaceship has sunk to a depth of 6,800 kilometers, which is the deepest part of the earth. She is the first to reach the center of the earth." people…

   That grassland morning with no sunrise and drizzling rain was the last thing she saw on the surface of the world...

  She will spend the rest of her life in a world of less than ten square meters in the center of the earth..."

  The store manager was caught off guard by all of them.

   When she finished reading the last word, before Hou Bing could speak, the store manager looked up, "This can't be your ex-girlfriend, can it?"

  Too ruthless!

  Hou Bing: "Pao, her eyes, um, can't see very clearly, I'm her leader—"

  The store manager suddenly realized.

  She suddenly understood.

   Although Putao’s situation is different from that of the heroine, Putao has fallen into an abyss, unable to climb out, and unable to see the world. The darkness or something else, just like the narrowness and closure of the heroine of the novel, leaving her endless loneliness.

  The store manager imagined the girls imprisoned in the ground, the grapes trapped in the cage of nothingness, their figures are one, they are weak, they are miserable, they are strong, and this strength makes her feel distressed.

   "I was wrong for joking just now."

  The store manager said seriously: "Be nicer to me in the future."

"certainly."

  Hou Bing nodded.

  He smiled shyly, but was eager to prove, "I like her very much."

  Jiang Yang once said a word, "People are like rainbows, you will know what you meet when you meet them."

  He didn’t quite understand what this meant before, but after meeting Putao, he suddenly understood that there really is such a person who can make people’s lives explode with a bang like fireworks, making life colorful.

  The store manager smiled.

  Although she doesn't believe in love, at this moment, she very much hopes that Hou Bing and Putao are real.

   "I'm going out for a cigarette."

  The store manager told Lu Xiaoyu that this book has a bit of stamina.

  Lu Xiaoyu became curious.

The store manager claims to be an ordinary person, and he is very diligent in changing boyfriends, so he doesn't believe in love and other things, he only believes in material things that can be grasped, and the most unacceptable thing in his life is hypocrisy. .

  She needs to see what article this is.

   After Lu Xiaoyu finished reading, he went out to find the store manager.

   Hou Bing and the overtime girl were left in the store.

  The overtime girl is curious about how powerful that article is?

  Hou Bing turned his head, seeing her curiosity, asked her: "Why don't you take a look too."

  The woman working overtime is welcome, "OK!"

  She takes the magazine—

Outside.

  While the store manager was smoking, the overtime girl stood beside her, "Damn, why don't I give my mother a rest this time! My mother resigns!"

   She looked at the tall buildings in front of her.

  The lights of the residential buildings in the distance and the lights of the shops along the street dimmed one after another, only the lights in the nearby office buildings were still on.

  The overtime girl looks up at the sky, it's not black, it's—

  The store manager spits out a smoke ring, curling upwards.

right!

   is this color.

  Under light pollution, you can't see the stars, but only the sky with a layer of gray.

   But such a sky—

  The woman working overtime suddenly realized that she hadn't stood at night like this for a long, long time, looking at the night sky quietly.

  I think it is commonplace and easy to get, but it is the easiest to ignore.

  The novel seemed to open a valve, and suddenly made her feel nostalgic for these ordinary scenery.

  ＊＊＊

   Putao's father, Puxi, had already missed it when he saw a bookstore in the rearview mirror.

  He suddenly remembered that his daughter had been asking him to keep an eye on a sci-fi magazine. He wondered if it would be released soon.

  Pu Xi stopped at the red light, wondering whether he should go to the bookstore and ask.

  His body told him not to go.

  He has been working all day, and he has hardly left his seat. He is about to sit out because of prostatitis.

but.

  At the next intersection, Puxi turned the car around and went to the bookstore, stopped the car, went in, and asked the cleaning clerk, who was about to close the store, if there was any magazine that Putao wanted.

   "Oh, yes."

  The clerk brought it to him.

  Pu Xi returned to the car after paying the bill, glanced at it with the dim light, and couldn't figure out why her daughter suddenly became interested in science fiction, maybe it was because of someone else? My daughter is quite familiar with the people who rented the house opposite.

   Puxi occasionally saw them chatting.

  His wife also said that the opposite door is a friend of the husband of the big star Li Yu.

never mind.

  What are you thinking so much about?

Puxi started the car and went back. When he got home, Putao had already fallen asleep. His wife was watching TV and left him a meal. After he sat on the sofa, his wife brought him the meal, "How is your day? Are you tired?" ?”

  Pu Xi stretched her waist, "It's okay."

  He just picked up the chopsticks, "Oh, yes", he took out the magazine from the briefcase, "This is the magazine that Putao has always asked me to buy."

  He took a bite of food, "Why is your daughter suddenly interested in science fiction?"

  The wife took the magazine, "It's good if you are interested."

yes.

   As long as you are interested.

  Pao is blind from birth. For her, she doesn't know what the world looks like.

  Puxi has always been guilty of why she was brought into this world. I haven't seen the beauty of this world, so I tasted the bitterness of this world first. How much he thought, how much he wanted to point to the rising sun, the setting sun in the evening, and the moon in the sky, and tell her what it was. How much he thought, grapes can pick a flower, pick up a stone, show off to him happily, and ask his father, what is this!

  He named her Pu Tao, originally hoping that she would have eyes as beautiful as two grapes.

However-

  Fate just laughed at him.

  So if Putao has a little interest in this world, he will be very happy, even if it is hard and tiring, he must satisfy her pleasure, so that he will feel less guilty.

   After eating, Pu Xi slumped on the sofa and took the magazine.

  The "Bring Her Eyes" on the cover of the magazine is very eye-catching, Pu Xi's heart moved, and she turned to the page number of this article, wanting to check in advance whether this article is suitable for her daughter to read.

Then-

  He sat up straight, "Grape?"

   Considering that Putao has been asking him to buy this magazine, it is hard to say that the grape mentioned in this editor's note is not her.

"Um?"

  The wife poked her head over and glanced, "Jiang Yang—oh, it seems that he is Li Yu's husband."

  She pointed to the door, "Their friends are just opposite."

  The wife saw Li Yu last time, and she had to sign her again.

  Pu Xi nodded.

  He flipped through the pages, gradually frowned, and then became serious.

  My wife glanced back while watching TV, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"nothing."

  Pu Xi touched her pocket, took out a cigarette, and smoked it on the bedroom balcony.

  This article wants to make him cry, but the heat is still far behind, and he never shed tears during the most difficult time. That was when Putao found out that there was a problem with her eyesight. Back then, her mother was still in confinement, so she didn't dare to let her know that Pu Xi just smoked for half the night.

   Later.

  He was alone holding the newly born grape for various inspections, watching the little girl go in and out of various instruments.

   He didn't shed a single tear.

   At most, they huddled in the corner, silently waiting for the inspection to end and the results to come out.

   Were you sad then?

   It’s hard to say, just like this cigarette, before I knew it, the whole pack ran out, leaving only cigarette butts and an uncomfortable throat.

but-

Puxi laughed softly, it's so good, it turns out that in this world, not only he is trying his best to let Putao feel the beauty of this world, but there are also people who care about Putao so much, use sci-fi romance to experience Putao's world, and interpret the oppression in her world , empathize with her—

  He touched the corners of his eyes, which were a little wet.

   But it’s really good, there is no one in this world who is more cherished than you, and it is gratifying to be cherished by others.

  The wife walked in worriedly, "Are you okay?"

  Puxi shook her head, "It's okay, I think Li Yu's husband—oh, Jiang Yang? And the group of children opposite, they are pretty nice."
