It was another beautiful day, and the air outside was exceptionally fresh.
It was eight o'clock in the morning when the sun rose. The air on the small road in the suburbs of Eastern Sea City was fresh. Xiao Zhuang ran calmly on the small path up the mountain. It was a familiar feeling, like the scene of running across the city when he was young. Xiao Zhuang couldn't help but feel that things had changed. But looking at the city at the foot of the mountain, he didn't feel the slightest bit of impatience. He didn't expect that he would be able to recall the past so calmly in his heart one day. His friends might be surprised to see this.
"Morning!" On the way back, Xiao Zhuang, who was wiping his sweat as he walked, greeted his neighbors enthusiastically. Then, he brushed past them in shock.
"What's wrong with this kid today?"
"Yeah, it feels a little strange.”
"In the past, he was always lifeless. Today, it's as if he won the lottery!”
Xiao Zhuang, who was walking to the front of the warehouse, could not help but laugh when he heard the discussions of the neighbors behind him. He wondered if he had shown off too much.
After resting for a while, Xiao Zhuang took a shower and changed into a few formal clothes. He looked at himself in the mirror. Hmm, he looked quite handsome. No wonder he was liked by girls in the past. However, this shoulder-length hair made Xiao Zhuang feel a little uncomfortable. However, as an artist, it could be considered a different kind of personality. It would be fine as long as he got used to it. He just didn't know if there would be any problems looking for a job like this.
Xiao Zhuang walked to a corner of the warehouse. This warehouse was quite big. According to Xiao Zhuang's memory, Fatty Shao had found an acquaintance to rent it for him. Because he was an acquaintance, the rent was relatively cheap. At least, it was more cost-effective than the other houses in the vicinity that cost more than 2,000 yuan a month. Gently lifting his camouflage step, a shabby off-road vehicle appeared in Xiao Zhuang's sight. There were many problems when he bought a car that cost 20,000 yuan. Fortunately, he knew some repair knowledge, so he could solve the small problems by himself.
Where was he going?
Xiao Zhuang, who was in the car, couldn't help but hesitate.
Forget it. I was writing my novel late last night and fell asleep the moment I fell asleep. I don't have time to look at the recruitment website.
He thought about it. Well, let's go directly to the human resources center in the city center to take a look.
When the car drove to the main street in the city center, Xiao Zhuang regretted it. He forgot to look at the almanac when he went out and caught up with the traffic jam. It was a torture to follow the traffic jam.
After a long time, Xiao Zhuang parked the car. He walked into the recruitment center. Looking at the similarly congested crowd, Xiao Zhuang could not help but be a little speechless. It seemed that the problem of employment was not limited to Earth.
Squeezing through the rows, she saw that none of them seemed to fit her specialization. A drama director? No one really wanted this.
It seemed that he had consulted a few job applicants in the morning, but they still politely asked about his major and politely rejected him again. Some asked him to leave his phone number and wait for further notice. At first glance, it was the kind that did not have a chance.
Could it be that he was an elite special forces soldier from the Wolf Fang Special Forces and a top student who graduated from the directing department, but he was actually going to run into a wall in his job search? It would be a little embarrassing if he said it. Actually, there was a reason why he couldn't find a job. After all, the retirement of the Wolf Fang Special Forces was not recorded in the file. Because this was a state secret. Besides, you're a graduate of the directing department. You don't have the right major at all, okay? Why would he choose you when he has someone better?
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhuang no longer hesitated. Anyway, he had to find a job. So what if he was just a little short? At least it was better than going back to the production team and being bullied by that bullsh * t director. Besides, it was only temporary. He would immediately resign when his novel made money. Hence, Xiao Zhuang came to some of the easier positions to apply for, with the idea of "if there is any date, we will fight it out". He left a job application at the entrance guard, security guard, reception, and other places before turning around and leaving.
In the evening, Xiao Zhuang continued to write in front of the computer when his phone rang.
A phone call? Xiao Zhuang stopped typing and kicked his phone.
What? The screen showed "Dad", and Xiao Zhuang's hand trembled, almost dropping the phone. What was going on? What should he do? Should he accept it or not? A series of thoughts flashed through Xiao Zhuang's mind.
In the end, Xiao Zhuang still pressed the answer button. He was Xiao Zhuang, so why wouldn't he pick up? The hesitation just now was only because he was an orphan in his previous life. When he thought of the word 'parents', he avoided it immediately. It could be considered an instinctive reaction. But now, after fusing with Xiao Zhuang's memories, he was Xiao Zhuang. Thinking of this, resistance turned into excitement.
He recalled Xiao Zhuang's memories.
" Dad..." Xiao Zhuang could not hide his trembling. After all, he had parents.
"Zhuang, how have you been recently? Why haven't you called home for a few months?"
Oh, no, I've been a little busy recently.
"What are you busy with? Sigh, your mother talks about you all day long. She keeps telling me that she wants to come to Donghai to see you.”
No need. I'm fine. You don't have to come. Besides, you and Mom aren't in good health either. You don't have to travel.
"Hey, your mother and I don't have any big requirements for you, but there's one thing I have to say. Look, a few of your high school classmates are already so old.”
"Dad, I understand. I haven't met anyone suitable yet.”
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone…
"Zhuang, Dad wants to ask you a question. Answer honestly.”
"Oh…go ahead."
"To be honest, Xiao Zhuang, ever since you retired from the army, you seemed to have changed into a different person. Sometimes, when others talked to you, you would always be in a daze. At first, your mother and I thought that you were just a little shocked and would recover after some time. Who knows where you've been like this since? No matter how we ask you, you won't say anything. Sometimes, she would hide in her room and cry. Sigh, you have to say it today."
Listening to his father's words, Xiao Zhuang was also immersed in his memories. When he returned from the military, he felt that he had nothing to live for. He felt like he had lost his soul.
"Xiao Zhuang, Xiao Zhuang, I'm talking. Are you listening?”
"Yes, yes." She heard her father's voice being a little rough. Xiao Zhuang came back to his senses.
"Sigh, forget it. Xiao Zhuang, you're already so old. There are some things that you have to grasp on your own.”
Alright, alright, I got it.
"Wait, Xiao Zhuang, there's one more thing you have to promise me.”
"Oh, tell me about it first."
"It's like this. Your mother and I have an old colleague's daughter who's one or two years older than you. I heard that he has a PhD in psychology from some famous medical school overseas. She's in Eastern Sea City now, go and find her."
"What? Dad, don't worry about me. It depends on fate.”
"What are you talking about, kid? Your mother and I didn't expect her to take a fancy to you. We just wanted her to show you. He had a PhD in psychology. After all, he was a professional. You've been abnormal ever since you came back from the army. Your mother and I are worried that you have depression or some mental illness.”
"It's nothing. Alright, I'm very good. You guys just take care of yourselves.”Xiao Zhuang was speechless when his parents thought this way. It was possible for Xiao Zhuang to do this in the past. However, he was doing very well now.
"No, this matter is not negotiable. We have already decided.”
She saw her father's unquestionable tone on the other end of the phone. Xiao Zhuang felt even more troubled.
"Hey, why are you talking so loudly? Seriously, didn't we agree to talk nicely? You know that Xiao Zhuang has been stubborn since he was young.”A female voice came from the other end of the phone.
Xiao Zhuang knew immediately that her mother and father were arguing over this matter.
On the other end of the phone, his mother suddenly said,"Zhuang, I'm your mother. I'm telling you, Lisa is a graduate from abroad. She's quite a professional in psychology. You're all young people. You should have a lot to talk about. Just treat it as a heart-to-heart talk with her. Mom had already made a call to him. If you don't go now, won't you make things difficult for Mom?”
“。。。I'll go and take a look so that you can rest assured. What else could Xiao Zhuang say when he saw his parents who cared so much about him?
"Hey, hey, your dad and I will be at ease. That's it then. Remember to go.”
"How about it, Comrade Zhuang? I'll be the one to do it."“
"Alright, alright, alright. You're amazing!"
He heard his mother's smug laughter from the other end. Xiao Zhuang was speechless. What a pity.
