Chapter 219: Crab and Eel

Without a trace of room for anything, Dong Shuhan just told me about the situation I was in simply and directly.

I can't refute that in fact, I am a Beijing drifter. To describe our situation at the time, I am just an ant raised by Beijing. I have no direction and can only struggle for my current survival. I cannot have extravagant hopes, because in this realistic city, people are not allowed to have extravagant hopes.

If you don’t want to be eliminated, you must learn to adapt to the survival rules of this city. If you don’t want to be driven away, you must be like those people, or even work harder than those people.

But even so, I can't betray Zhang Yao. She is my woman. I can't interfere with any choice of her and smile helplessly. I said, "It's a pity that I'm not a smart person."

"Then you just wait for your woman to marry a powerful man for the sake of the family." Dong Shuhan slowly played with the cup in her hand and said to herself: "At that time, I really want to see how distraught you will be."

"You will see" I stood up from my seat, "Mr. Dong, thank you for telling me these things, but I'm sorry, I'm afraid I will disappoint you. Since I love her, since we have come together, I will definitely accompany her. No matter what choice she makes, she will support her. As for the day that day has not arrived in the future, why should I disturb myself?"

"Yes, let's just go and see?"

"Let's just take a look, you'll have the last laugh anyway, right?"

"I saw through the truth, but I still persisted blindly." Dong Shuhan clapped her hands and praised, "Chen Mo, you really opened my eyes. If Zhang Yao and I were the same as before, I think we would become friends."

I smiled and replied, "It's a pity that the most useless thing in this world is if."

"Yes, the most useless thing is if" Dong Shuhan sighed, "Tell me that partner and let her make enough preparations. I don't want to beat her without any effort."

“Yes.”

Turn around and wave.

The dinner has not started yet, and I have left early.

Standing alone on the streets of Guomao, he suddenly felt that he was very small.

You can't walk out of this street or jump out of the East Third Ring Road, let alone the huge Beijing city?

I am just an ant, an ambition with a little ambition, and there is a saying that Dong Shuhan is right. Even a toad that eats swan meat cannot change its essence. All I can see is the sky in front of me.

It was dark, the sun was blocked by the haze and the air was heavy and a little turbid, but I was used to breathing the air here, the accent of Beijingers, the grass and trees that I could see, and unknowingly, I got used to Zhang Yao, the days around her, I still wanted to get used to life here and be with her.

So, I can't leave, I'm not what I want to see when I leave in shame.

But I couldn't convince her to give up and chose the path that Dong Shuhan drew for her.

When I passed by the intersection, I stopped. Now I am not only standing on the crossroads of reality, but also on the crossroads of life. Every step next, no exaggeration, will affect my life.

Life is only a few decades, and there are only once. I should be responsible for myself, the people who love me, and the relatives and friends. I have nothing, but there are many things that I need to bear.

At this moment, someone should come to give me the answer, and Zhang Yao is undoubtedly the best choice.

I started running, running towards Borie, and I wanted to see her and let her give me a hug and an answer!

The office is empty.

It was the meal time, and now she should be sitting in a restaurant, eating pasta or drinking coffee.

This office suddenly seemed very empty, just like my rental house. The only thing that was filled was loneliness, which was so quiet that it made people disgusting. I really wanted to smoke a cigarette and stabilize myself with the help of nicotine.

But I promised her to quit cigarettes.

Just like this, I was contradictory and entangled. I was like a traveler who had been wandering in the desert for a long time, eager for sweet water, but nothing was left.

In a distress, I squatted on the ground, my anxious heart tortured me repeatedly. What Dong Shuhan said in my mind, the reincarnation played over and over again, maybe if I advised Zhang Yao, we can live together effortlessly?

When this idea came to life, I was startled by myself and shook my head. I told myself secretly: Don’t be so shameless. Things in the future have not yet come. There must be some factor that can make you beat the past. What’s more, the girl you love needs you to accompany her, rather than persuade her to give up.

The office door finally opened.

I seemed to have been waiting for half a century, before I waited until she came back and saw her, I jumped up from the ground, rushed to her, and then couldn't wait to close the door, hugged her tightly, and sniffed her faint fragrance sprigs frantically.

"What's wrong with you, Chen Mo?"

Zhang Yao was shocked by my actions, but she did not push me away, but instead patted me on the back and asked me with concern.

"It's okay, I just miss you."

The moment I hugged her, the whole world became quiet, and I waited for my own clear spring.

I slowly relaxed my arms, and I said with apologies: "Sorry, I'm so excited."

"It's okay, but you just did really scary."

"Um."

"Have she told you something?"

After hesitating for a moment, I decided to tell Zhang Yao what Dong Shuhan said to me.

After hearing this, Zhang Yao laughed and said, "I have to say that she knows my dad very well."

"It's time for you to laugh, I really admire you."

"Don't laugh, do you want me to cry? Then, like you, you are anxious like a child?"

"I" scratched my head, and I couldn't say a word.

"Chen Mo, do you know what kind of crab creature?"

“Hairy crabs are delicious.”

"Be good, you." Zhang Yao rolled her eyes and said, "I mean, you are just a crab. Even though she knew that Beijing was a fishing net, she still had to come in. She wanted to see if it was your pliers hard or the fishing net hard. When you came in, you found that you could no longer live without this fishing net. Not only was you trapped here, but you still had to live here."

"What do you mean, are most of the people who are drifting in Beijing? "

"No, most of the people who choose to come here to wander are eels, only you are crabs." Zhang Yao's eyes showed a soft look, and she explained softly: "Eels are very slippery, and only that kind of creature can adapt to life in the net pocket. The flow is in the middle of the crowd, and you are crabs, a crab that never stops without cutting the net pocket. This is also the reason why I like you."

"Men can be knocked down by life, can be hit by external forces, but they cannot bend their backs. You Chen Mo, are such men. Although you will change, you never give in. When you were in Wuzhen, I saw your struggle. You are cruel to others and even more cruel to yourself. However, when you face me, you are very gentle, like a child, so I like you. Choose you."
