Good dreams and nightmares differ by only one word, yet they can torment people to the point of near death.
Qin Bai sat alone on the edge of the bed. The rising sun cast its warmth on his shoulders, and beads of sweat dripped straight down his forehead.
I haven't felt this way in a long time.
In dreams, brokenness and darkness are intertwined.
Previously, he was preoccupied with his mother's illness and daily life.
The moment I open my eyes, I'm already thinking about where I should go today. I only feel at ease when I can convert every penny into real money.
But what is it for now?
My mother recovered from her illness, and we have money, a car, and a house.
Why does the abyss still gaze upon him?
He wanted to control every detail, but forgot that human energy is always limited.
Human desires are limitless. When you earn 3,000 a month, you wish you could earn 5,000.
When I had 5,000, I just wanted to make money.
It goes on and on, endlessly.
It was a seemingly simple question, yet there was never an answer.
But living means taking risks and making a fuss; without the desire to take risks, you lose your energy and spirit.
Qin Bai rolled out of bed, took a few deep breaths, and finally calmed down a bit.
I picked up my phone and scrolled through the chat history.
The yandere: "Xiaobai, I'm going crazy! These two are going to torture me to death. My house is turning into a zoo, and it's full of inanimate objects."
"I'm determined to spend the Lunar New Year here and enjoy the happiness of family reunion."
"Oh no! What should I do? Why is God punishing me like this? Is it just because I secretly ate a piece of cake in the middle of the night?"
Little Green Tea: "Little White, it's so cold here! Much colder than where I'm from. I feel like I'm a giant, moving popsicle."
"I'm too scared to leave the house now. If I go out, I'll be like a giant penguin, and I'll definitely trip and fall."
"Thinking about how much longer I have to stay here makes me feel even colder. I'll stop here for now; my third aunt wants me to go play cards."
Shen Guaiguai: "Xiaobai, is there any way to stop a gathering of parents?"
Why do they still spend Chinese New Year together?

The background is a vast ocean, and the girl stands on the rocks, stretching out her arms to make a heart shape.
Qin Bai replied to everyone, saying that his phone's memory had been running out since the holiday started.

Data and images account for 84% of the content.
I don't want to delete it, and I can't delete it.
The Lunar New Year is just two days away, and it seems no different from any other year.
If that aunt hadn't brought her daughter along...
There were just the right number of people, and it was still just the mother and son.
It's not a bad thing, isn't the point of the Lunar New Year to be safe and sound?
The excitement and festivities are secondary.
After opening the door, he stopped and unconsciously turned to look at the bedroom.
Yes, that's my home.
He glanced at the living room, skeptical.
It's confirmed, it really is my home.
"Mom, what's wrong? Are you not going to live anymore?"
It took Qin Bai five minutes of stumbling and wading to finally find his mother hiding in the corner.
"Move aside, don't get in the way."
Cheng Jing was holding a rag and a basin of water, wiping the stains off the glass.
"No, even a thorough cleaning wouldn't be this complete. Why are things scattered all over the floor?"
"Go away, go play somewhere else, what do you know?"
Cheng Jing rolled her eyes at him.
"They're really forcing themselves to suffer when they can't," Qin Bai sighed.
"It's Chinese New Year, so we should act like it's Chinese New Year. If we don't drive all the filth out of the house, how can we have a good New Year?"
Cheng Jing washed the rag in the basin and said without looking up, "Go out and do your work, don't stay home and cause me trouble."
Qin Bai: ? ? ?
Am I something dirty?
"Let me help you with some work before you leave."
There was no breakfast today.
"Oh, bye-bye."
Qin Bai turned and left without hesitation.
When you hear this, you'll know how busy a parent must be.
One second they're whispering softly, the next they might unleash a thunderous roar.
It's not worth getting a beating during the Chinese New Year; it's better to just obey.
Five minutes to wash up, one minute to get dressed, and you're out the door.
"Hey, Sister Wanyin, are you up yet?"
"Early to bed... Phew, I'm here... When are you... coming over?"
Qin Bai glanced at the number on his phone.
You didn't dial the wrong number.
He asked cautiously, "What are you... doing?"
Pei Wanyin's tight-fitting clothes were soaked with sweat. After getting off the treadmill, she picked up a towel and wiped her face.
"What do you think I could be doing?"
"Exercise?"
What do you think?
"Exercise."
Pei Wanyin knew exactly what he was thinking, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
"You little devil, have you had breakfast yet?"
"No, my mom kicked me out. She's doing a big clean-up."
"So...you got kicked out?"
"I'm not anything dirty, thank you."
You've been mocked twice about the same topic this morning, are you even polite?
"Hehe, come have dinner with me."
"are you at home?"
"What else? Go for a morning run?"
"I'd better not, it's too conspicuous. Just thinking about those greasy guys who claim to be working out trying to chat me up makes me feel awkward."
