On New Year’s Eve, Yancheng Yanbei Commercial Plaza.

Shao Xi sat in the parking lot booth, shrank his neck and wrapped himself in a cotton coat. While shaking his legs unconsciously, he looked at the neatly arranged cars outside the window.

The space of the booth is very small. Apart from the small table in front of you and the chair under your butt, there is only the electric heater next to it. The booth is like a fresh-keeping cabinet in winter and an electric steamer in summer. Shao Xi doesn’t understand why such a large commercial square is reluctant to install an air conditioner?

Shao Xi glanced at the time on his phone, then looked up at the crowded scene of shopping malls and food courts in the distance, and couldn't help but curl his lips, "New Year's Eve, New Year's Eve, I will pass the New Year's Eve."

Shao Xi, 26 years old, from the north, has been working in Yancheng for more than a year and has been working as a security guard in Yanbei Commercial Plaza for almost a year. Shao Xi originally worked in a chemical factory after graduating from his hometown, but he expected that the factory would go bankrupt after working for a few years.

Shao Xi is a single-parent family. His father died in early years because of alcoholism. His mother took Shao Xi alone until he finished his junior college degree to work. There is an old saying: "It rains all night long, and the boat is late and the wind is on the head again."

But just as the chemical factory went bankrupt, Shao Xi was unemployed, his mother was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer. His family had been living in difficulty over the years and had no savings. His mother's serious illness became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Although he knew that the meaning of hard work was not great, Shao Xi still went to all his relatives and friends, hoping to borrow money to treat his mother. But he underestimated the indifference of human nature. With bowing and kneeling all over the world, only his life was not well-off. His widowed aunt lent him 20,000 yuan.

From then on, he realized that fate never favors people in suffering. The only thing you can do is to constantly fight against fate. Shao Xi sold the only house in his family without hesitation and accompanied his mother until he sent her to the last journey.

Will a person suffer from loss when he has nothing? At least Shao Xi will not. Now he lives optimistically. For him, the happiness he lives every day is what he earns, so his funny nature has been opened from then on.

I have to mention the name Shao Xi. He asked his mother if she meant that she hoped she would be as energetic as the morning sun? As a result, his mother told him that she was thinking too much.

The name was given because on the day he was born, more than a dozen soldiers took turns carrying military stretchers to help carry their mother to the hospital. When Shao Xi's father was thanking these soldiers for going to buy cigarettes, he saw these soldiers sorting out the queue in the hospital yard to leave. The loud "Stop, stand at attention!" brought inspiration to his father, so he gave him this name.

This made Shao Xi feel very nonsensical. Speaking of which, the funny genes on her body were inherited from her father.

Shao Xi took out the peace buckle that was hung on his neck with a leather rope. This was the relics left to him by his mother. The silver dollar was the size of a silver dollar, and it looked round and full, and it looked warm and transparent. It didn't look like agate or jade jadeite. It was arranged in parallel with nine different colors: white, yellow, orange, red, purple, black, green, blue, and blue. My mother said that this was passed down from the ancestors and told him to keep it well and not to lose it.

At this moment, Shao Xi looked at the festival scene with lights and decorations around him, and muttered in his heart, "Is the New Year related to a homeless worker like me? The canteen gets off work at noon. Where is the agreed dumplings? On New Year's Eve, I have to eat instant noodles in the dormitory again."

Just as Shao Xi was complaining, the door of the security guard booth was pushed open. The person who pushed the door in was a young man in his early twenties. He was not tall and had a baby face full of smiles.

"Brother Shao, you are here! It's so cold this day!"

As soon as the young man came in, he squatted in front of the electric heater and baked his hands, shaking his body while baking.

"You are not patrolling outside, so you run to me to be lazy. It would be strange if the captain finds out that he doesn't kill you." Shao Xi smiled when he saw it.

"I'm not a livestock. I've been wandering outside for most of the day and I've been frozen to death. If the captain asks me, he will say that you come and take a break." The young man seemed to be very familiar with Shao Xi.

"Oh! Your uncle's Xia Junqi dares to joke about my name, as if your name is much better than mine." As he said that, Shao Xi raised his hand and slapped the boy in the back of the head.

Xia Junqi smiled, "I play military chess when I play military chess. They are used to laughing at them. My father can't change the name he gave me, so I recognize him. Brother Shao, I came here mainly because I have something to tell you."

"Is there anything more convenient to say on the walkie-talkie?"

"It's inconvenient to say private matters on the walkie-talkie, and it will cause adverse effects." Xia Junqi scratched his head, still smiling.

In fact, even the pig knew that he was afraid that the captain would hear it.

"Get down quickly! You Xia Junqi still have a private matter? It's not convenient? It still causes adverse effects? Who do you think you are? What big star?"

"No, Brother Shao, please keep your word. I am not a little security guard. Please give me a thumbs up and let me go." Xia Junqi smiled and looked like begging for mercy.

Shao Xi also sat upright and asked seriously, "Well! Tell me! Why do you see me?"

Seeing this, Xia Junqi hurriedly slapped his sleeves alternately, then swung his hands at the same time, and knelt on one knee to make a greeting position.

"You are the one who is on duty today plans to have a dinner together after get off work to celebrate New Year's Eve. I wonder if Lady Lady is right?"

I don’t know how many palace dramas this kid has watched, and he still has a very good performance.

Shao Xi smiled and said, "Well, I see that you have worked so hard on weekdays. I will be sure what you ask today."

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt something was wrong, "Wait! What did you call me just now? Lord Lady? I'm a man!"

Xia Junqi looked like "It doesn't matter" and said, "Everyone else has said it, Brother Shao is the only one, just say whether you will go!"

"Then we will see you in the dormitory after get off work."

"Don't go on! It's the New Year, can we not be so shabby? Let's go out to eat to have an atmosphere!" Xia Junqi looked at Shao Xi with the look of the iron rooster.

"Damn! Apart from those high-end restaurants on New Year's Eve, where can they be open? It's not the New Year? Do you usually go to barbecue restaurants too much and make your brains funny?"

"Sister Hua! We called and asked. The couple will not go back this year. Let's go over and have a lively New Year's Eve with them." Xia Junqi looked confident.

Shao Xi gave Xia Junqi a blank look, "So you have planned it, why are you talking so much nonsense to me? Just meet Sister Hua!"

"Okay! Then that's it. Let's see you after get off work. I'm leaving!"

"Well, let's kneel down." Shao Xi also cooperated quite well when he looked at Xia Junqi's inappropriate face.

Xia Junqi broke open the door of the security guard booth and flashed out. Before leaving, she did not forget to make a strange look in front of the window. Shao Xi was also amused and crying.

Shao Xi picked up his phone and looked at the time. It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon. There were not many vehicles entering and leaving now, so he simply opened the novel website and looked like he had been following the updates recently.

This kind of thing can only be done secretly. If the captain finds out, it is a big talk that determines life. Speaking of which, the captain’s own life seems to be not very satisfactory. I wonder if it will be helpful to him if his attitude towards others is changed.

Shao Xi was looking down at his phone. The sound of knocking on the window was heard from the window, which scared him to the point of being shocked and almost threw away his phone.

"Is it because the captain discovered it?" Shao Xi was a little nervous.

Looking up at the window, I saw a pretty face, willow eyebrows, a beautiful nose, a small cherry mouth, a pair of big eyes, and long eyelashes, as if I was saying hello to myself.

"Damn it, people are scary." I thought to myself, and I stood up and opened the door and walked out.

When I first looked at the girl, I felt a red look full of red wool short trench coat, red trousers, a pair of red cotton boots on my feet, a red wool wool hat on my toe, and two wool balls on the hat head swaying from time to time.

"I'm going, is this a Fuwa?" This is the first sentence Shao Xi shouted in his heart, but the Winter Olympics has ended long ago!

The girl didn't seem to mind Shao Xi's look at her, and said to him with a smile: "Can you ask me for help from a security guard?"

This "brother" called Shao Xi very useful.

"What difficulties have you encountered?"

It is usually difficult to refuse the beauty's request, especially the beauty in front of her does not look like the kind of girl with princess disease.

"I can't drive out of the car."

After hearing the other party's answer, Shao Xi secretly muttered in his heart, "Oh, he's another female driver."

Although I thought so in my heart, I still asked, "How come I can't open it?"

"I parked the car at the innermost point, right next to the green belt." The girl raised her hand and pointed to the direction where there was a green belt in the parking lot.

After hearing the girl's answer, Shao Xi probably understood the reason.

Due to the increase in the storage of cars in the parking lot, some parking spaces had to be added earlier, and the aisle on the side of the green belt has now been marked as parking spaces. Therefore, the car that drives to the innermost cannot be reversed into the parking space. It can only go in first, and when it comes out, it can only reverse in the direction of the exit until the small square of the parking lot. This way, it may not be a big deal for male drivers, but it is a problem for many female drivers.

"Let's go, I'll drive it for you."

After Shao Xi finished speaking, he walked towards the innermost parking space in that direction, and the girl hurriedly followed.

Shao Xi turned around and asked again, "There are not many cars in the parking lot today, why do you park in the innermost?"

The girl laughed at the question and explained with insight: "Where I go, I am used to park my car at the innermost point, so there is only one parking space next to me, which can reduce the probability of someone scratching my car when opening the car door. I don't like to park at the outermost point, because there are too many cars coming and going outside, which will increase the probability of scratching my car."

Shao Xi was also amused and crying when she heard the girl’s explanation, so she smiled and said to the girl: “If you don’t practice reversing well, it will increase the probability that you can’t get out.”

I don’t know if this sentence hit the girl’s laughter, she covered her mouth and laughed constantly.

When I saw the car, Shao Xi was stunned. This is the latest BMW 740li. I don’t know anything else, but I only know that this car starts from one million. A girl in her twenties drove out of this car?

"Uh--, I haven't driven this car before. Can you tell me about the basic operation?"

High-end ingredients often use the simplest cooking method, and high-end cars often use the simplest operation method. With the guidance of the girl, Shao Xi quickly mastered the operation of gears.

He first poured the car out of the existing parking space, then found an empty parking space, poured the car in, and when he came out of the parking space, the front of the car was already facing the direction of the exit.

Shao Xi got out of the car and said to the girl, "Okay, now you can leave."

But the girl was not in a hurry to leave, but tilted her head and said thoughtfully: "It's so simple, why didn't I think about it?"

"Just be obsessed!" Shao Xi said casually.

"It makes sense. Thank you very much today, I'm leaving." The girl stretched out her right hand playfully.

Shao Xi shook hands with the other party politely, and asked him to pay attention to safety on the road. Then, watching the girl drive away, he repeated the previous sentence in his heart, "Oh, female driver."

Because Shao Xi returned to the dormitory to change his clothes, he was the last one to "Sister Hua". As soon as he entered the door, Xia Junqi called him over and sat down. Because there were no other customers in the store today, the colleague who arrived first put together the two tables inside.

After Sister Hua came to say hello, she saw that everyone had arrived, so she and her husband were busy preparing barbecue, grilling skewers and processing some cold dishes, as well as the most important dumplings on this day.

The group of colleagues on the table had already had a good time chatting. Shao Xi and Xia Junqi also made jokes and bragging, and all kinds of funny sentences were shown. A group of workers at the bottom of the society in another place vented their inner emotions on this day.

Xia Junqi's face turned red with his eyes straightened. He smiled foolishly and asked, "Brother Shao, do you know why I call Xia Junqi?"

"Isn't it that your dad was playing military chess when your mom gave birth to you?" As he said that, Shao Xi also made a chess move.

"Come on! It has nothing to do with that thing."

Xia Junqi waved his hand and continued, "My father graduated from a normal secondary school, and his education is the same as Brother Shao. This is a cultural person in our valley."

"In recent years, he has been teaching us children in mountain schools, who are studying in private primary schools. He wants to teach a few promising students so that they can get out of this mountain valley and wait until they have gained the ability to return to build their hometown."

Speaking of this, Xia Junqi's eyes were a little wet.

"When I was born, my dad said, 'A gentleman stands upright and plans things with wonder'. He hopes that his son will not be like him in the future. He wants to be a smart person, be able to do what he wants and do well, so he named Junqi as my name. God testified that my dad never plays military chess."

"It's fine for military chess, it's a noun at all, but my surname is Xia. A good word has become a verb. Who should I ask for to reason?"

Shao Xi looked at Xia Junqi with incredible eyes and said, "Brother, I was such a good inspirational and sensational story, why did you think you were talking about to the wrong place!"

"Hmm? Is there any? Oh, forget it, I won't talk about this anymore." Xia Junqi scratched his head and began to giggle again.

After midnight, everyone had eaten the dumplings made by Sister Hua. Everyone gathered the money and paid the bill, and gave Sister Hua and his wife an additional red envelope of 200 yuan. This may be the most unrestrained consumption of these people in the year.

After leaving Sister Hua’s barbecue restaurant, Xia Junqi was almost carried back to the dormitory by several people. Shao Xi did not go back with everyone. He wanted to walk on this usually bustling street.

My mother is gone and the house is sold. He is now a person without a home. He doesn't know if the city has its own future.

Shao Xi, who was thinking about his worries and was alcoholic, walked across the street on the zebra crossing. At this moment, he felt a black shadow rushing towards him.

The first thing he saw was a black BMW, the second thing he saw was a woman sitting in the car, a woman in red. After a harsh friction between the tires and the ground, he was sure that the third thing he saw was a street light. Next was the sound of the car doors and footsteps, and then the sound of panic calling.
