Chapter 103 Chaos Turns (V) Rotting Tissue and the Foul Smell...
Logically speaking, Zhang Deng should have a sense of urgency, after all, he was chosen to be the "savior".
But there was no change in Zhang Deng's life. In fact, because he knew that a disaster was about to happen, he felt a sense of calm before the storm.
Zhang Deng and He Xiaoqiu would occasionally call each other and occasionally arrange to meet briefly, but because their personalities were really incompatible, they would often part ways after not meeting for long.
He now has many friends around him who he can hang out with. After going out to play for a while during the day, Wei Yuanye will come to pick him up and take him home. After dinner, Zhang Deng will start writing his novel.
He wrote his story very quickly. Li Xin graduated and found his first job as a fitness coach. He rented a house for the first time. The bathroom pipe was leaking. He learned how to repair it online. After fixing the pipe, he found that the electricity bill had skyrocketed again. He spent more than 300 yuan on electricity in a month and couldn't find the reason. Later, he discovered that the water heater was the most energy-consuming, so he didn't dare to take a hot bath anymore.
Li Xin is not yet fully adapted to this job, mainly because she is shy and not good at salesmanship. She is thinking about changing jobs, but can't find a suitable one. She has been in a bad mood recently.
When Zhang Deng was writing, he no longer had any preset ending, nor did he intend to write about any specific experiences for Li Xin. He just tried to restore some of the things a girl might experience after graduation. In the process, he also met Hu Ningning's request to write about everything around him in as much detail as possible.
He wrote that Li Xin's monthly salary was 3,200 yuan, her rent was 1,500 yuan, and riding a shared bike cost 2.5 yuan. She did the math herself and realized that the bike alone would cost 200 yuan a month, so Li Xin stopped riding and ran to work.
Li Xin was forced to cook for herself, so she knew the prices of various vegetables. She only ate seasonal and cheap fruits and would not eat anything that cost more than ten yuan.
She grew her hair long because she no longer had to get a haircut, drank water she boiled herself, occasionally bought herself a pair of shoes, and participated in some competitions, basically saving a thousand yuan every month.
Li Xin is a very strong woman.
Zhang Deng writes very coolly. He writes about a completely different life. Li Xin is not like him who is melancholy about the passing of time. She is a person whose brain is completely determined by her limbs. She is almost never anxious and has no internal consumption. She saves money when she has no money and eats when she is hungry. She is a completely pure woman.
Zhang Deng has portrayed many characters around her, and he feels that no one is worthy of Li Xin. However, Li Xin likes men. Maybe Li Xin is also choosing. She will also test the character and morality of men, but the conclusions she often draws are not suitable.
So all these people are just in contact.
Wei Yuanye had a sudden idea today. He bought some fresh milk, heated it in water and handed it to Zhang Deng, then poured the rest into the cat bowl for Xiaomi. Xiaomi loves drinking milk so much that she can even make the sound of a pig eating.
Zhang Deng was writing and drinking at the same time. Wei Yuanye was sitting next to him, smelling of shower gel. Zhang Deng turned around and found that Wei Yuanye had already finished washing up.
Wei Yuanye asked him: "Do you want to post a video?"
Zhang Deng was stunned by his handsomeness. It took him a while to react and asked, "Why?"
Wei Yuanye said: "A lot of people sent me private messages asking what I was doing."
"Oh," Zhang Deng said, "I have fans too?"
Wei Yuanye: "Of course."
Zhang Deng has his own books and articles. Although many of them are signed by He Xiaoqiu, everyone later knew that they were written by him. Some people like Zhang Deng's writing style and personality, and because he seems to be tortured and overwhelmed, some people really care about his recent situation.
Zhang Deng was really not good at managing this kind of relationship. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Forget it."
Wei Yuanye didn't force him and said, "Forget it then."
Zhang Deng: "You are so handsome."
Wei Yuanye is actually very keen on the Internet. He likes playing games and watching videos. When waiting for the lights to light up and doing things, he always finds a place to sit aside and play with his mobile phone quietly. It feels very contrasting and you can't tell that he is an Internet user at all.
Zhang Deng felt that it was because Wei Yuanye's brain worked too fast and he needed some fresh information stimulation at any time. He observed Wei Yuanye playing with his mobile phone, and he always read some popular science, electronic digital analysis, historical interpretation and the like. In between these things, he would watch cute videos of kittens and puppies. The span was very large, and Wei Yuanye would very seriously click on a red heart and then swipe away.
Zhang Deng often thinks Wei Yuanye is very cute at this time. He asks Wei Yuanye to send him the videos he likes. He also wants to watch them, but in the end he gives up because he feels the Internet is too noisy and he feels dizzy after watching a few.
Zhang Deng himself is the kind of person who can't think straight at all. If he receives too much high-intensity information continuously, he will feel like he is overloaded and his system is down.
Wei Yuanye was also reluctant to post the video. He said, “I’m too lazy to shoot it.”
Zhang Deng asked him curiously, "Did you know you were handsome before?"
"I looked in the mirror." Wei Yuanye said.
Zhang Deng: "Do you have any concept of beauty or ugliness?"
Wei Yuanye turned to look at Zhang Deng, stared at him for a long time, and asked in confusion, "Am I stupid?"
Zhang Deng: “…”
Zhang Deng laughed and said, "I just feel like you don't care about this at all."
People with good looks tend to be a bit narcissistic, love looking in the mirror, and like to dress up. Wei Yuanye doesn't have this habit. Zhang Deng feels that he doesn't seem to care what he looks like in the eyes of others. Because Wei Yuanye doesn't care too much, Zhang Deng feels that he has no sense of beauty or ugliness.
"You care a lot." Wei Yuanye said, "You are obsessed with looks."
Zhang Deng: "Don't learn that kind of talk."
Wei Yuanye: "Aren't you?"
Zhang Deng couldn't refute it, he really liked Wei Yuanye's face.
There's nothing I can do about it, it's really handsome. If this is also considered low taste, Zhang Deng has nothing to say.
The King of Heaven has come, and Zhang Deng is really attracted to Wei Yuanye's face. No matter his character or personality, nothing is as impactful as his face.
Feelings are cultivated later. Zhang Deng was shocked by Wei Yuanye's appearance at first sight.
Zhang Deng tried to argue: "But... well, it's true."
Wei Yuanye was rarely unhappy and ignored him.
Zhang Deng leaned forward to look at him, his nose touching Wei Yuanye's cheek. He asked, "Are you really angry?"
Wei Yuanye said: "No."
"You're not really angry, are you?" Zhang Deng said. "You're not that petty, are you?"
Wei Yuanye said: "No."
Zhang Deng: "No way, no way."
Wei Yuanye pinched his cheeks, squashed Zhang Deng's face into a squirrel, and said, "You're annoying."
Zhang Deng reached out and hugged him, saying, "Okay, I really love you."
Zhang Deng doesn’t want Wei Yuanye to feel sad, disappointed or inferior at all. Wei Yuanye is a very cool person. Being in a relationship doesn’t mean he has to suffer.
Wei Yuanye asked, "What if there's someone more handsome?"
Zhang Deng: “…”
"That's impossible," Zhang Deng said, "I think you're the most handsome."
Zhang Deng said: "Because I love you, really. Why are you looking at me like that? I'm really angry."
Wei Yuanye said, "What would you do if someone who was more handsome, more capable, and better at cooking said they liked you?"
How could there be such a person in this world? Zhang Deng felt that the question he asked was not in line with Wei Yuanye's character, but Zhang Deng still said: "I will tell him to get out, he is not worthy of me at all."
Wei Yuanye finally laughed, thinking that he was too narcissistic.
Zhang Deng said, "In this world, only Wei Yuanye is worthy of me, because I am also quite handsome."
Wei Yuanye smiled and said, "Go away."
Zhang Deng's hair had grown a lot longer, and it was fluffy and stuck to Wei Yuanye's chest. Zhang Deng felt like he was Wei Yuanye's kitten. He wanted to bite Wei Yuanye and scratch his skin to attract his attention and make him look at him all the time. But he was different from a kitten. A kitten always had his own things to do, but he wanted to be with Wei Yuanye no matter what he did.
Zhang Deng said, "If you ask me that, I'll really be sad."
Wei Yuanye placed his hand on his head, stroking it gently, and said, "I was sad just now, too."
Zhang Deng: "But you are very handsome. You can't deny it, and neither can I. Whatever you look like is part of you. Even if you are ugly, I will still fall in love with you. I just like you very much."
Wei Yuanye: "You didn't say that just now."
Zhang Deng laughed and said, "I'm sorry."
Zhang Deng is already very brave and generous, but sometimes he still feels a little hesitant to say something too straightforward. He feels that language often facilitates communication between people, but there are also times when it makes people further apart.
Zhang Deng couldn't help but think that when there was no language, people probably wouldn't have these misunderstandings. Whoever you comb your hair for, pick out lice from their body, and give them food for, that's who you love.
Much simpler.
The saying that what you say is what the law says only came into being after the invention of language. Language eventually became a shackle that bound human beings. We benefit from it, but we are also burdened by it.
The same is true of the relationship between Zhang Deng and words, sometimes far away, sometimes near. When he writes smoothly, he feels like a driver with roads extending in all directions and he can do whatever he wants. When he writes unsuccessfully, he feels that words are his enemies, and they glare at each other, neither willing to forgive the other.
Amidst this endless struggle, Li Xin quit his first job and started working as a freeman, occasionally serving as a windbreaker for a cycling team, occasionally training students preparing for the physical examination for the high school entrance examination, and sometimes participating in some competitions.
During a competition, a photographer took photos of her and posted them on his own platform. Li Xin had smooth muscle lines and her skin was tanned from years of exposure to the sun. Her eyes were focused, like an adult female cheetah, and she became a little famous on the Internet.
Under the guidance of people around him, Li Xin opened his own account and updated his training routine. It was not very popular, but many girls liked it.
This made Li Xin feel very wonderful. She had never received so many compliments, let alone appreciation from the same sex. Li Xin occasionally updated her life. Her nomadic and precarious life was actually what many girls dreamed of.
Li Xin realized that the world is really big, big enough that she can live in a very chaotic way and still have people appreciate her.
Fitness is a very large field with many complexities. Many fitness bloggers have already divided up the market. They are even divided into different factions. They dislike each other and publish works to slander each other. Li Xin is still a small blogger. She will not touch anyone's cake. Occasionally, she will receive some advertisements with very low asking prices. However, Li Xin's income is very diverse, so she is very happy to earn this little money.
Some men also sent her private messages to express their admiration. Li Xin has been single for so long that she is actually eager to fall in love. She has never experienced what it feels like to be in love. Sometimes she clicks on the profile pictures of the boys who sent her private messages with a mentality of despising herself, and they all show pictures of them showing off their muscles in the gym.
Li Xin inexplicably lost interest.
She didn't know why, but she didn't like those men.
She has heard many people tell her that a woman does not have to have a relationship to have a complete life.
Li Xin believed that this was the truth: people are already complete and don't need anything extra to be born into this world. However, Li Xin had never been in a relationship before, and she couldn't convince herself that she really didn't want one.
She wanted to experience the taste of love, even if the ending was not happy.
After Zhang Deng finished writing Li Xin’s diary for today, he looked at the time and it was already past eleven o’clock.
He had been writing later and later recently. Wei Yuanye was playing with his phone in bed. After turning on the light and getting into bed, Wei Yuanye put his phone down, put his arms around him naturally, and asked him, "How long will you continue writing?"
"A long time," Zhang Deng said, "but I don't really know."
He didn't know how long this story would go or what stage of Li Xin's life it would cover, but for now, he didn't feel like stopping.
Zhang Deng asked Wei Yuanye, "Do you think it's noisy?"
"No." Wei Yuanye said, "You've been writing for too long."
Wei Yuanye added: "It's time to cut your hair."
"I don't want to cut it anymore," Zhang Deng said. "My old one still suits me better. I'll let it grow back."
It was a simple conversation, but Zhang Deng felt like crying. He didn't know why, perhaps because he was too happy, and such moments of happiness were always fleeting.
Zhang Deng suddenly turned around and asked Wei Yuanye, "Are you hiding a secret from me?"
Wei Yuanye blinked, looked at him with his dark eyes in the darkness, and said nothing.
Zhang Deng didn't look him in the eye again, but put her head in his arms and said, "But I won't be angry either."
"Because I love you very much," Zhang Deng said, "I am that kind of great love."
Zhang Deng said: "I will support you. I stand on your side, although I don't know which side you stand on."
Wei Yuanye touched his head.
Zhang Deng shed tears, which he wiped away secretly.
