Chapter 552 Happy

　　Continue.

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

That morning on the grassland with no sunrise and drizzle was actually the last world she saw on the ground...

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

 The store manager was caught off guard and was hit.

　　When she finished reading the last word, before Hou Bing could say anything, the store manager looked up and said, "Isn't this your ex-girlfriend?"

　　Too cruel!

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

 The store manager was stunned.

 Suddenly she understood.

Although the situation of Putao is different from that of the heroine, Putao has fallen into an abyss, unable to climb out, and cannot see the world. Darkness or something else, just like the narrowness and isolation where the heroine of the novel lives, leaving her with endless loneliness.

The store manager imagined the girl imprisoned underground and the grapes trapped in the cage of nothingness. Their figures were one, they were weak, they were miserable, they were strong, and this strength made her feel heartbroken.

 “It was my fault for joking just now.”

 The store manager said seriously: "Be nice to others in the future."

"certainly."

Hou Bing nodded.

He smiled a little shyly, but also wanted to prove, "I like her very much."

Jiang Yang once said, "This person is like a rainbow, and you will know it when you meet him."

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

 The store manager smiled.

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

 “I’m going out to smoke a cigarette.”

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

Lu Xiaoyu became curious.

The store manager prides himself on being a common man. He is very diligent in changing boyfriends. He does not believe in things like love, but only believes in things that are real and tangible, such as material things. The most disgusting thing in his life is pretentiousness. Now he has become pretentious. .

 She had to see what article this was.

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

 Hou Bing and the overtime girl are the only ones left in the store.

 The Overtime Girl is curious about that article. How powerful is it?

Hou Bing turned his head and saw her curiosity and asked her, "How about you take a look too."

 You’re welcome to the overtime girl, “Okay!”

 She took the magazine—

Outside.

 While the store manager was smoking, the overtime girl stood next to her and said, "Damn it, why don't you give me some time off this time! I'm going to resign!"

 She looked at the tall buildings in front of her.

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

 The overtime girl looked up at the sky. It was not black, it was—

 The store manager blew out a smoke ring, which curled upward.

right!

　　That’s the color.

 Under light pollution, no starlight can be seen, only a layer of gray sky can be seen.

 But the sky is like this—

The overtime girl suddenly realized that she had not stood like this at night for a long, long time, looking at the night sky quietly.

 Think it is commonplace and easily available, but it is the easiest to ignore.

 The novel seemed to open a valve, suddenly making 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 help keep an eye on a science fiction magazine, and he didn’t know if it would be released soon.

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

 His body told him that he didn't want to go.

 He has been working all day and has hardly left his seat. He is suffering from prostatitis.

but.

At the next intersection, Puxi turned the car around and went to the bookstore. He stopped the car and went in. He asked the clerk who was cleaning and preparing to close the store if he had any magazines from Tao Xinxin.

 “Oh, yes.”

 The clerk gave it to him.

After paying the bill, Puxi returned to the car and took a look under the dim light. She couldn’t figure out why her daughter suddenly became interested in science fiction novels. Maybe it was because of someone else? My daughter is quite familiar with the people renting a house across the street.

Puxi occasionally saw them chatting.

His wife also said that the person opposite was a friend of the husband of the famous star Li Yu.

never mind.

　　Why do you think so much?

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

Puxi stretched out his waist and said, "It's not bad."

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

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

 The wife took the magazine and said, "As long as you are interested."

yes.

 As long as you are interested.

 Grapes was born completely blind. For her, she didn’t know what the world was like.

Puxi has always felt guilty about why she was brought into this world. She has not seen the goodness of this world, so she has tasted the bitterness of this world first. 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, he could pick a flower from grapes, pick up a stone, show it to him happily, and ask his father, what is this!

He named her Pu Tao because he originally wanted her to have two beautiful eyes like grapes.

However-

 Fate laughed at him like this.

 So if Tao Tao is a little bit interested in this world, he will be very happy. No matter how miserable and tiring he is, he will still satisfy her pleasure. In this way, he will feel less guilty.

 After eating, Puxi slumped down on the sofa and took the magazine.

"Bring Her Eyes" was very eye-catching on the cover of the magazine. Pu Xi was moved in her heart and turned to the page where this article was located. She wanted to see in advance whether this article was suitable to be read to her daughter.

Then-

 He sat up straight, "Grapes?"

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

"Um?"

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

 She pointed to the door, "Their friends are right across the door."

My wife saw Li Yu last time, and she wanted to get her autograph signed.

Puxi nodded.

As he continued reading, he gradually frowned and then became serious.

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

"nothing."

Puxi touched his pocket, took out a cigarette, and went to smoke on the balcony of the bedroom.

This article wanted to make him cry, but the heat was far from enough. He never shed tears during the most difficult time. That was when Putao was diagnosed with vision problems. Her mother was still in confinement and didn't dare to let her know, so Puxi just smoked for half the night.

 Later.

He was alone holding the newborn Grape for various examinations, watching her go in and out of various instruments.

 He did not shed a single tear.

Huddled in the corner at most, silently waiting for the inspection to end and the results to come out.

 Were you sad at that time?

　　It’s hard to say, just like this cigarette, the pack of cigarettes is gone before you know it, leaving only the cigarette butts and an uncomfortable throat.

but-

Pu Xi chuckled. It was great. It turned out that he was not the only one who was trying his best to make Tao Tao feel the beauty of the world. There were also people who cared about Tao Tao so much. They used the romance of science fiction to experience Tao Tao's world and to interpret the oppression of her world. , empathize with her—

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

 But it’s really good. There is no one in this world that you value more than yourself, and it’s gratifying to be valued by others.

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

Pu Xi shook his head, "It's okay, I just think Li Yu's husband - oh, Jiang Yang? And the group of kids opposite are quite nice people."
