The sky has just darkened, and the neon lights on the street have already lit up, making them colorful and gorgeous.
Under the neon lights, the two long queue-like food stalls were already filled with people, old, young, male and female...all kinds of people, a mixture of dragons and snakes.
It's a hot summer night.
Most of the men were naked, sweating, eating hot pot and drinking beer, while the women were scantily clad, exposing large areas of skin for free viewing, laughing wildly and fist-pumping loudly with the men...
Everyone was eating, laughing, shouting, and cursing...
It was full of people and lively.
Amidst this lively scene, a man in his thirties appeared in the food court. He was wearing a low-quality white shirt and a pair of jeans that were as worn as a beggar's outfit.
It doesn't match either.
His expression was numb, his eyes were empty, and he was walking with mechanical steps. The lively scene around him seemed to be in a completely different world from him. No one knew that this zombie-like man named Zhang Cheng, whose business had just gone bankrupt, had just met with him this afternoon.
My wife, who has been married for more than a year, filed for divorce.
Now, in his eyes, the neon lights in front of him are all gray, and the billowing red dust is like passing clouds.
A little girl smelling of alcohol and wearing a navel-baring dress staggered into Zhang Cheng, raised a heavily dressed face, and said with drunken eyes: "Oh, brother, what are you doing to bump into me?"
Don’t you want to eat other people’s tofu?”
Zhang Cheng walked straight forward without even looking at her. When he reached the end of the street, he paused, hesitated, turned into a department store called "Good Luck Come", and bought himself a box of
Yanjing fresh beer.
The community where Zhang Cheng lives is nearby. He used to buy things here because he was on the way. He is a regular customer of this store, and he is familiar with the female boss. Zhang Cheng knows that the boss is an older leftover woman, and the female boss also knows that.
Zhang Cheng used to be a big boss, but his business went bankrupt not long ago.
The female boss's name is Wang Juyi. She is twenty-eight years old. She is a very capable woman. She has not only this store, but also several branches in Jiangcheng. Because she was busy with business, she did not take care of her life-long affairs, so she was "left".
Seeing Zhang Cheng's devastated look, she couldn't bear it, her red lips parted slightly, and she couldn't help but exhorted: "A Cheng, don't be too sad, cheer up, what's the big deal, the business is lost, let's start over...
…”
Zhang Cheng knew that this woman named Wang Juyi had always been interested in him before, but she gave up the idea after she got married.
"Start all over again..." Zhang Cheng shook his head: "It's easy to say... but difficult to do..."
After more than ten years of hard work, only he himself knows the hard work. The hard work is a trivial matter. The important thing is that all the hard work will never come back...youth...family...health...and many, many more...
Wang Juyi sighed and asked again: "Hey? Where is He Yan? Why aren't you with me?"
"Leave! I'm going to the Civil Affairs Bureau this afternoon!" Zhang Cheng said simply.
After hearing this, Wang Juyi's eyes lit up, and she unnaturally raised Bai Jiu's fingers to brush the hair that had fallen on her beautiful temples, and said: "It's okay to be divorced. There's nothing good about a woman who can only share joys and sorrows."
Nostalgic!"
Zhang Cheng nodded, smiled bitterly, stopped answering, and was about to turn around and leave when he was stopped by Wang Juyi. Wang Juyi very quickly took out a pack of the store's new packaged food from the product counter and handed it over, saying:
"No, I'll give you a bag of dried squid to go with your wine..."
Zhang Cheng felt a warm feeling in his heart, thanked him, grabbed it and left without even looking at it.
Return to the Green Garden Community where you live.
Zhang Cheng bought this house in Luyuan Community three years ago. It has two bedrooms and one living room, a large balcony, and is more than 100 square meters. At that time, he had already started his business and made some money, so he bought this house.
The purpose is to get married and have children as soon as possible, and to create a child for the Zhang family as early as possible according to the parents' wish before going abroad.
As a result, before man was created, he was already divorced.
My wife's name is He Yan. She is a very well-off woman. She was very gentle and loving before getting married, but after getting married, she became unsentimental. It turns out that she only cherishes her face and figure. For the sake of figure and face, she
She has always refused to have children.
Moreover, this merciless woman was passionate about money. As Zhang Cheng's business went bankrupt, she directly said goodbye to Zhang Cheng and fell into the arms of a nouveau riche son named Li Chang.
What's even more hateful is that when the divorce was being processed this afternoon, He Yan also claimed to want Zhang Cheng's house as compensation for her youth. Because it was Zhang Cheng's personal property before marriage, Zhang Cheng naturally refused. Unexpectedly,
He Yan actually threatened, saying that she would bring someone to ask for the house tomorrow, and if Zhang Cheng did not agree to give it, Li Chang would cause trouble for him.
Zhang Cheng had met Li Chang and heard about Li Chang’s reputation as a dominator in the food street. After marrying Zhang Cheng, He Yan worked as the lobby manager of a hotel called Hongbin Building in the food street. It must have been that time for the two of them.
Known.
Opening the door and entering the living room, kicking off his shoes, Zhang Cheng went directly to the balcony with a beer.
There was a large balcony with a cool breeze. There was a round table and two chairs with backrests in the center of the balcony. Zhang Cheng put the entire box of beer on the table, then kicked over the chair where He Yan often sat, and placed it on the other side.
He sat down on a chair, opened the beer box, took out a bottle, bit open the bottle cap with his teeth, and blew on the bottle.
Drinking to drown your sorrows.
After years of hard work in business, Zhang Cheng has developed a good tolerance for drinking, but his health has also been damaged by drinking. Although he seems to have gained weight in the past two years, he is actually puffy.
He is thirty-five years old this year. Years of traveling and working have made him very weak. His skin is sagging, he has white hair on his head, and there are wrinkles on his face. Although he has no serious illness, he still has some wrinkles.
If you are not healthy, you are in a "sub-health" state.
Although he is only in his thirties, no one would doubt him if he now claims to be forty.
From this point, it can be seen that He Yan only married him for money, because He Yan is only twenty-five years old. She is ten years younger than Zhang Cheng, and her appearance is not bad.
Zhang Cheng planned to get drunk tonight, but he felt a little dizzy after just one bottle, so he opened the squid bag given by the shop owner and drank it.
Seeing the squid, Zhang Cheng thought of Wang Juyi's words again, laughed at himself, and murmured: "Let's start all over again...I'm already a four-year-old, and I only have this house under my name. What can I get?"
Start all over again..."
The past was like the bitter liquid in the wine glass. The more he drank, the more uncomfortable he became. The more uncomfortable he became, the more he drank. After drinking six bottles in a row, he finally stopped drinking and crawled onto the table to fall asleep.
The night was getting darker, and at midnight, when the clock rang zero, a blue light fell from the sky, streaked across the sky like a meteor, and came towards the balcony. Finally, it hit Zhang Cheng's head quickly and indiscriminately.
superior.
Zhang Cheng's body and mind were shaken. His mind was a little clearer. At this time, he heard a mechanical female voice in his mind: "The outer space software age modification device has found the host object and is now installing it... kaka kaka..."
Hearing this sound, Zhang Cheng's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly sat up straight and listened with bated breath. However, the strange sound in his head kept ringing. The clicking sound lasted for about half a minute before it stopped, and then the mechanical sound came again.
The female voice said: "The installation is complete, and now it is bound to the soul of the host..."
Hearing this, Zhang Cheng's whole body trembled, and all the beer he drank turned into cold sweat. As soon as the drunkenness dissipated, his mind became clear.
He patted his forehead, feeling quite normal, but the voice in his head was still ringing: "Dear host, the outer space software age modification device has been installed and bound to your soul. Do you want to do it now?
Experience it..."
Zhang Cheng turned his head. The balcony was empty. He was the only one. The sound could not have been made by someone else. Moreover, he clearly felt that the sound came from his head. Zhang Cheng, who had never believed in evil, also felt that at this time,
There was a moment of panic, and he couldn't help but said: "You...who are you..."
"I am a piece of software from outer space called Age Modifier. I am now living in your mind and bound to your soul. Now I completely belong to you and you can use it at any time...
"
"Uh...really?" Zhang Cheng finally confirmed that he had obtained a piece of software, just like the protagonist in an online novel got a superpower. At this time, even though he was as calm as he was, there was a burst of excitement and anticipation... "Then,
What functions does this software have?”
"Dear host, the function of the software is to modify the age."
Zhang Cheng said in surprise: "Change your age? Is it so magical?"
"That's right, host, for example, you are thirty-five years old now. If you want to turn back to twenty-five years old, the software can help you..."
Before the system voice finished speaking, Zhang Cheng could not wait to say: "Is it true or false!?"
"Dear host, if you don't believe it, you can experience it now..."
"Uh..." Zhang Cheng rubbed his hands in surprise and said, "Then how can I do it?"
"All it takes is a thought." The system voice said: "Dear host, whether you are making software or communicating with me in the future, you can use your thoughts."
"Uh..." Zhang Cheng was stunned for a while.
When he was in junior high school, he also read novels about online supernatural powers. Although he knew that they were a product of fantasy and he was in reality, the powers on the software were very similar to those described in the online novels, so it made sense.
After coming over, as soon as he thought about it, he heard a clicking sound in his head, and his eyes flashed, and a large virtual screen appeared in his sight.
The above seems to be a computer interface:
Whether to turn on the age modifier:
[whether]
*Note: Please click with your mind.
…
Zhang Cheng clicked [Yes] with his mind
The virtual screen flashed, and something like this popped up on the interface:
