Chapter 390 Scenery
Mr. Shen's first time was given to a stranger.
Fortunately, he has lost a lot of weight now, otherwise he would not have been able to squeeze into this small seat space before.
The balls of his feet were placed on the pedals, and he had nowhere to put his hands, so he rested them on his thighs. He turned his head and looked at the slowly moving scenery, letting the sea breeze blow away the embarrassment on his cheeks.
It’s really unexpected that one day he would ride an electric car. If his wife knew about this, wouldn’t she make fun of him?
Having said that, here you can find both delicious food from peacetime and the rare peace and tranquility of the end times. It is truly a paradise. Next time I have the chance, I will bring my wife here to experience it.
It's a pity that my mother is not here... No, I saw her today, and she is still the same as I remember her...
He recalled the scene he saw while eating, and couldn't help but feel shocked, and at the same time, a wave of sadness and bitterness surged up in his heart -
“In fact, the high-end restaurant is not only about the exquisite food.”
Xia Yan gently put down his chopsticks, wiped the corner of his mouth, and looked at them. He bent his fingers and tapped on the table. A beam of light pointed downwards directly above the table. The dark spots of light in it gathered together, and dozens of options gradually emerged.
[Dining Scenery Options: 1. Bamboo Forest. 2. Ocean. 3. Starry Sky. 4. Clouds. 5. Cliffs...]
"You can try it," she said.
After Chu Wanfu and Mr. Shen looked at each other, they reached out and pointed at the clouds.
After confirmation, the beam of light suddenly dispersed and enveloped the three people. The next second, the scene in front of them changed completely - they felt a soft touch under their feet. When they looked down, they were surprised to find that it was a white cloud.
The area was about the size of a ping-pong table, and the edges of the clouds seemed to be blown away and gathered again by the wind.
Looking up, a large, dazzling golden disc hangs in the sky. Looking around, several clouds of different shapes float slowly. Below them, the devastated city looks as small as a puzzle, and the mountains and green land seem like ornaments in a sandbox.
"This, can't it really run into the sky?"
Xia Yan smiled and shook his finger, "Of course not. You have a technology called VR, which is similar to that."
Chu Wanfu smiled bitterly, "VR can't currently support eating in the scene."
“Try the next picture.”
Mr. Shen took the initiative and clicked on the starry sky option.
The light in front of my eyes suddenly dimmed, and a chill came over me, causing goosebumps. The large candlestick on the dining table lit up, and the soft yellow light brought warmth.
At this moment, they were surrounded by endless void, giving people the illusion that they were about to fall in all directions.
The stool under your butt and the dining table with delicious food on it are all floating in the void, making you feel very insecure.
After the eyes adjusted to the darkness, clusters of brilliant stars filled the entire space, and various colors bloomed like flowers competing for beauty.
I can't help but sigh at the vastness of the starry sea and the brilliance of the light.
What’s the big deal about space walking? They are eating in space right now!
The two looked at Xia Yan opposite them with indescribable excitement.
Is this a scene that VR can create?!
ah?
Even the fact that there aren’t so many meteorites in real space was simulated?
Looking at the blue planet that occupied the entire field of vision on the left, I was shocked!
Are there really living things on this planet?
It is such a beautiful planet, but the human beings living on it are suffering from a catastrophe?
An overwhelming and fatal loneliness came over me.
This, I feel sad even while eating.
Seeing the two of them looking gloomy and filled with a decadent aura, Xia Yan hurriedly spoke:
"Actually, there are other pictures. I think you might like them. Check them out later."
Mr. Shen swiped through the options with a disgusted look on his face, and when he saw the last option, his eyes suddenly widened.
[23. The one you love]
Chu Wanfu was also stunned, and the next moment a captivating light flashed in his eyes.
"What does this beloved mean?"
"Let's give it a try." Xia Yan said calmly.
Their fingers clicked impatiently, and for the first time, they were so excited that they didn't want to blink.
A chair appeared on each side of them, and two sets of tableware were added to the dining table. At the same time, the scenes they saw became different.
The room before Mr. Shen had become a small room deep in his memory. It was a small room, immaculately tidy. His once-favorite black and white TV was covered with a floral white cloth. A sewing basket sat beside it, and a pair of half-knitted red woolen trousers lay on a blue plaid bed sheet...
All of this has appeared in my mind countless times late at night.
The sound of cooking outside the door stopped and the footsteps gradually approached. He couldn't help but get nervous, missing the person who was about to appear, but also afraid that it was not her.
“Squeak—”
"Son, why are you standing there like an idiot? Hurry up and wash your hands and have dinner."
The familiar voice, the familiar face, belonged to his mother who passed away early, an old mother who had never enjoyed any happiness.
"mom!"
...
Chu Wanfu found himself sitting on a bench. The street lights not far away flickered, making the path increasingly darker.
She should be here soon.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the faint sound of small heels hitting the brick surface.
Still so cautious.
Not long after, a young girl with a large schoolbag on her back walked slowly towards him. The moment she saw him, she smiled and hesitantly quickened her pace.
"Xiao Wanwan, you're here~"
Chu Wanfu looked at the smiling little face and raised the corner of his mouth, "Well, are you scared?"
"Don't be afraid, I know you are here."
Chu Wanfu took off her schoolbag naturally, put it in his arm, and let her walk on his right side.
"Are you tired today?"
"Tired~"
Hearing this, he squatted down and said, "Come up, I'll carry you."
The girl giggled, jumped up without hesitation, put her arms around his neck, and continued:
"I weighed myself today and I've gained a pound. My teacher told me to lose weight. She also said that when I jump I look like a fat swan. Do you think I look like one?"
The girl pulled the tip of his ear and moved closer with a hint of threat.
The sweet fragrance and heat rushed into her ear canal, blowing the tiny hairs and making her feel itchy. Chu Wanfu moved up without changing his expression and held her slender ankle.
“No.”
He added: "Like a graceful white swan."
The little swan that beats and spins forever on the tip of his heart.
The girl giggled happily, and the sound was like a pleasant bell, which made his heart ache.
"You're so nice, I'll treat you to a meal~"
Chu Wanfu was stunned for a moment, then looked up and saw Xia Yan sitting at the dining table with a faint smile against the soft and bright background in front of him.
How could he forget...
After Mr. Shen washed his hands, he was about to wipe them with a towel when he thought of something and deliberately wiped them on his clothes, leaving wet marks.
His mother might scold him again.
He laughed.
As he took a step, the scene changed. His mother was sitting at the luxurious dining table, looking at him expectantly.
His eyes swept over Xia Yan, over the three sets of bowls and chopsticks, and over the exquisite meals produced by the restaurant.
Alas, I couldn’t eat that dish after all.
