When she reached home, it was already 12:03 pm. His wife was definitely not asleep yet. I shouldn't have stayed at Secretary Zhang's house for fifteen minutes. I promised that I would definitely be home before twelve.

My wife was lying on her side with her back to me. I didn't know what to say. I wanted to say a joke, but I couldn't think of anything. After a period of silence, my wife said coldly,"Yiren came and waited until eleven o'clock…then he left.”

What was he doing here on New Year's Eve? He didn't show up at my wedding last month, and now he's coming out from there? I know that my wife doesn't seem to like Yiren. I don't know what they said and what kind of expression my wife gave him. Where could he go on New Year's Eve? I was very puzzled, but my wife said,"I kept his, but he insisted on leaving. He only said that he wanted to see you. He didn't say anything else to me."”My wife spoke very softly, as if she was not angry, but I could clearly see that she was worried. I suddenly had an ominous feeling. I took off my glasses and covered my head to sleep. My wife interrupted me from time to time, but I ignored her at all. She did not sleep well the whole night and was in a daze.

I woke up early in the morning…I knew something must have happened to Yiren…I looked for her phone number everywhere…

I went to Yiren's house and saw a pile of fresh paper ashes in his room…This was what I expected…Yiren really burned all his manuscripts.

Yiren was my university classmate. We graduated from junior college together in 1994. It just so happened that the county government office needed a secretary. My father found some ways and arranged for me. At first, I didn't want to give up my glorious profession of teaching and educating people, but I couldn't persuade my father, so I had no choice but to go. When I entered, I realized that I was only asked to check the manuscript, bind the materials, and occasionally write some tofu blocks. I felt very wronged and very unhappy. Later, when I heard that they wanted to add more people, I went to lobby Yiren. Yiren said that his assignment was about to be settled. Besides, he didn't want to lose his specialization and couldn't be on the same level as me. Later, Yiren stayed for another month, and the distribution was still "soon". He realized the meaning of the word "soon" and had to make a "long-term" plan: Wait. I advised him to settle the matter of distribution, but he only smiled bitterly. I said,"If you need money, I have 1,000 yuan here.”He took the money and smiled bitterly. After another week, he went to work at Xianhu Mountain Middle School.

After teaching for half a year, he somehow flew to the court. We all envied him for being a judge of the people, although the court was also very difficult. However, he still said that he was unhappy. I advised him to be more realistic and not be too bookish. He didn't say anything. He seemed to be deep in thought. Then, he would always say a few funny words and mock himself.

He and I were college classmates, so our relationship was extraordinary. In addition, we both liked " doodling ", so we had some common words. After graduating from university, we met almost once every two months. Both of us liked to talk to each other from the bottom of our hearts, so we became bosom friends.

I don't know why, but he started writing a novel. I don't know if it's a novel or not, but he said it's just words. He wrote a chapter, and I read a chapter. I had a lot of feelings to communicate with him."Feelings cannot be communicated." I'll just say less. He wrote and I read it. Later on, I was about to get married and didn't have time to study it in detail. I just skimmed through it, but he was very angry and as serious as a child. My fiancée said that he was not doing his job properly. I refuted it for him. My fiancée pointed the finger at me again, saying that I was harming others. Yiren did not think so. I also tried my best to explain. My fiancée insisted on her own point of view. The three of them had a "literary battle". In the end, Yiren took the initiative to leave and never came to my house again. He didn't come even after I got married. In the past, he had said many times that he would make a scene. I called him a few times and told him that I didn't mean anything else. I told him to come to my house and especially emphasized that he must bring the new manuscript (I felt that I was dragging him down, but I didn't say it out). Later, Yiren sent me the new manuscript and told me to send it back. I read it again, but the style was very different from before. There seemed to be a deep sense of pessimism. Looking down, I felt that Yiren might have gone mad. I suspected that the protagonist of the article (Yiren named the protagonist after his own life) would...

The article didn't seem to have been finished, but Yi Ren had written the words " The end of the play ". At that time, I had a prediction that he was up to no good.

It's New Year's Eve. Why is Yiren looking for me? If I met him, would it not end up like this? What was the ending? I stood in front of the paper ashes in a daze, and my wife pulled me out-so that Uncle wouldn't suspect anything.

After returning home, I became more and more preoccupied. The deep sense of guilt suppressed me and I couldn't sleep at night. The scene of me and Yiren together was similar to the one in Yiren's article (novel?)The scenes described in the novel intertwined in my mind. At night, I was in a daze, and my mind was filled with plots and people. I went to see the doctor, and the doctor also felt that it was strange. I really couldn't work anymore. I want to burn some paper for Yiren."What did it mean? "It's only right," said his wife. So I really burned the fire paper, not for anything else, just for myself to be more relaxed-perhaps people are selfish-but after burning it, my head became more and more painful. My wife said,"It's better to find your own reasons. Don't let your imagination run wild.”Find my own reason? It suddenly dawned on me. Could it be that the story written by Yiren was causing trouble in my mind? Why didn't I restore the story to relieve the burden in my heart? And so I came up with the following article, and I tried my best to put it back together, like I was taking a tumor out of my brain.

The following is Yi Ren's article.
