His head was spinning, his throat was dry, and the hangover made Lu Feng want to vomit.
But there was nothing left to vomit from my empty stomach.
He opened his eyes, as if he had exhausted all his strength. He saw a cramped little room and was lying on a wooden bed. The surrounding environment was very old and smelled musty.
Where is this?
No one answered him. There was a red bucket not far away. Lu Feng forced himself to get up and stood in front of the bucket. He scooped up half a ladle of cold water and gulped it down.
Feeling much better, Lu Feng looked up and stared dumbfounded at his reflection in the mirror.
The man in the mirror had messy hair and looked to be in his twenties. He was wearing a camouflage work jacket on his upper body and worn-out suit pants on his lower body. His face was thin and gaunt, as if he had been malnourished for many years.
Lu Feng's hands trembled slightly as he touched his face, feeling it so vividly!
"Who is this? This isn't me!"
A sharp pain shot into his brain, causing his fragile body to give way. He knelt in front of the bucket, panting heavily, as a jumble of memories surfaced before his eyes.
Lu Feng, 24 years old, elementary school education, married for four years, his wife's name is Jiang Xiaoyan, they have a child, unemployed, a good-for-nothing since childhood, always getting into fights, a gambler, and frequently beating his wife...
"No!"
These memories confused Lu Feng, mixed with his own. He was also named Lu Feng, thirty-five years old, a graduate of a top university, chairman of two listed companies, with a net worth exceeding 2.7 billion in 2020, and had just been named one of the top ten outstanding young talents. He was not yet married.
Lu Feng was sorting through his memories when he suddenly looked up at the calendar on the wall, and froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.
The date on the calendar was clearly: early 1990s.
Two hours later, Lu Feng finally finished processing the memories in his mind. It was a tragic love story of this era. Lu Feng and Jiang Xiaoyan met through a blind date. Because Lu Feng dropped out of school at a young age and didn't learn any skills, his source of income was very unstable.
Jiang Xiaoyan refused to share a room with Lu Feng, hoping to force him to comply, and proposed to go to the city to work.
Unexpectedly, after working at the factory for only a few days, Lu Feng made friends with a group of bad influences. He learned all sorts of vices, including drinking, gambling, and whoring. After being fired from the factory, he drank every day, and if anything went wrong, he would beat her when he got home.
Such a Lu Feng made Jiang Xiaoyan even more hesitant to entrust herself to him, but some older people told her that having a child would be enough, as men are always busy working for their children.
A few months later, Jiang Xiaoyan adopted a six-month-old daughter, but Lu Feng didn't change much. Jiang Xiaoyan thought about divorce, but in this day and age, divorce is something a woman dares not even think about.
Yesterday, Lu Feng came back drunk and beat her up again, then she fell into a deep sleep on the bed.
Unexpectedly, this sleep brought Lu Feng to the present day.
The sound of a door opening interrupted Lu Feng's reverie, and he looked up towards the doorway.
The door opened, and a chubby little girl ran in. When she saw Lu Feng kneeling in front of the bucket, the smile on her face instantly turned into fear, as if she had seen a demon.
"Mom, he's awake!"
The little guy was clinging tightly to a slender leg. Lu Feng looked up and saw a beautiful girl, standing tall and graceful at 1.7 meters, with delicate features and a pair of bright, big eyes.
Her innocent charm would absolutely outshine all the female internet celebrities years later.
However, the fear deep in her eyes and the bruises on her face completely ruined everything.
Their eyes met, and Lu Feng felt a little awkward. He slowly raised his hand to greet them, saying, "Hello!"
Jiang Xiaoyan had never heard her husband speak so gently before. She stood there stunned for a while, then lowered her head and said, "Are you hungry? I'll go cook."
"Thank you!" Lu Feng said.
Jiang Xiaoyan thought she had misheard. She stared at him wide-eyed and asked incredulously, "What did you say?"
I said thank you.
Jiang Xiaoyan's smile was somewhat pathetic as she said, "You're welcome. Just go easy on me next time you hit me."
Lu Feng really wanted to tell her that he wasn't the one who hit her yesterday, but he thought that no one would believe him if he said it. Even he himself was now half-believing and half-doubting whether he was dreaming.
Although Jiang Xiaoyan was only twenty-three years old, she was very quick and efficient in the kitchen. Looking at the things in the kitchen, she sighed. Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. All that was left in the house was a bundle of noodles and two eggs.
This family is entirely supported by her working two jobs. She had saved up a huge sum of money, several hundred yuan, but Lu Feng took it and put it on the gambling table. Now, this family is truly destitute.
Lu Feng drank half a ladle of cold water, regaining some strength. He sat back on the bed and looked at the chubby little girl. If he remembered correctly, her name was Duo Duo.
"Duoduo, come here!"
The little guy took a step back with a look of fear on his face, clutching the tattered doll tightly in his arms.
Lu Feng sighed helplessly. In her eyes, he was probably more terrifying than a demon. It could only be said that Lu Feng's death was something to be thankful for.
"Duoduo, help Mom get the bowls and chopsticks." Jiang Xiaoyan's voice came from the kitchen, light and cheerful.
This family would be much warmer if Lu Feng weren't in it.
Duoduo rushed to the kitchen, skillfully took out three pairs of chopsticks and a dish of pickled vegetables, and Jiang Xiaoyan brought out three large bowls and placed them on the old table.
The noodles were boiled in plain water, and each bowl had a strip of bright green vegetable in it. Only Lu Feng's bowl had two poached eggs, which looked so conspicuous.
