Ling Zhi didn't cry in the end, just kidding! If he really wanted to cry, Shi Yan might still know how to laugh at him in the future!
However, having said that, Ling Zhi was indeed very relieved. He did not expect that the two girls could see through him to this extent.
Almost a year ago, when I was just enrolling as a graduate student, bad news came to my family that my father had passed away unexpectedly due to a car accident.
From that moment on, Ling Zhi felt that he was in confusion. He spent the mourning period in a daze and returned to school in a daze.
At that time, he didn't know what he was working hard for, and he didn't know if his family could wait until he became successful and famous to share the joy with him.
However, as time went by, his negative mood gradually faded away.
Later, he met Zhao Shiyan, and then he decided to study for a Ph.D.
Later, he and Zhao Shiyan encountered the VR secret room incident, and he made up his mind to start practicing with coach Xingchen.
Of course, until now, he has not regretted making these decisions and is determined to do these things well, but this does not mean that the confusion in his heart has disappeared. At most, it has only weakened slightly.
But today, the two girls woke up the man in his dream with words, and he smiled happily:
"Shi Yan, Mengyao, thank you. Although I still don't know what height I can reach in the future, but now I can only work hard to move forward, right?"
"Whether it's scientific research or billiards, I will do my best to do it well, so that I can live the life I want and be able to protect the people I want to protect. Only this, I will never go wrong!"
"But I'm a little strange, Shi Yan, how did you see that I'm still affected by this incident? I've obviously never mentioned my dad's incident to you before."
Zhao Shiyan smiled and tapped Ling Zhi's head with his index finger:
"Do you even need to ask? As a nephew, you usually like to think about unnecessary things. How can you force yourself not to think about such a big thing as your father's death? You will definitely think that you are also partly responsible, etc.
Some are there, some are not, if you don’t want to, you won’t be you!”
Ling Zhi looked at Zhao Shiyan dumbfounded:
"Understanding me to this extent, I am really convinced by you."
Immediately afterwards, Ling Zhi changed the subject and said to Li Mengyao:
"Thank you too, Mengyao. I once inadvertently said that I was confused for a while when I first entered school. You actually still remember it now. It's really yours."
Li Mengyao smiled:
"This is normal. I remember everything about you two, Ling Zhi and Shi Yan. After all, without you, I wouldn't be where I am now!"
Ling Zhi felt very relieved. He stood up and stretched:
"Anyway, after you guys talked with me, I feel much better! Okay, let's skip this topic! I still have something to do. If you don't mind it, would you like to help me?"
"Oh? It's Chinese New Year, if you don't have a good rest, what else are you busy with, Ling Zhi?"
"That's right. Tomorrow I'm going to visit the grave to worship my ancestors, so I need to pinch some paper ingots, prepare some bananas, apples and liquor. My dad also liked drinking when he was alive. I can't do it without pouring him a drink."
"In previous years, I always went to visit the graves with my cousin, but tomorrow morning I have to take you two to the bus station to wait for the bus, and I also have to visit relatives in the afternoon, so I plan to get up early to go to the graves and tell this matter
It’s done, you two can just sleep peacefully, and it won’t be too late to wake you up when I come back.”
"That's it."
Zhao Shiyan's eyes moved around unconsciously, not knowing what he was thinking.
Ling Zhi came to the study, took a bag of paper ingots that his mother had prepared a long time ago, took it to the living room, and began to stretch the flat paper ingots into a three-dimensional shape.
In Ling Zhi's hometown, people pinch ingots and foils every year before visiting the grave, as a way of expressing their thoughts for the deceased.
Zhao Shiyan and Li Mengyao also came over to help Ling Zhi in a tacit understanding. Li Mengyao's hands were very skillful, and the ingot he pulled out looked like a small boat, and it was very three-dimensional.
In comparison, Zhao Shiyan's hand was wrinkled. Although he could stand upright, he didn't look very good-looking.
"It doesn't matter, just pinch them casually. In fact, the main purpose of doing this is to make these dead things more popular, and also to give us younger generations a chance to honor our deceased ancestors, so don't worry too much."
Seeing that Zhao Shiyan was a little embarrassed, Ling Zhi comforted her in time.
Zhao Shiyan laughed sarcastically:
"Yeah, that's good. I'm afraid you'll say I'm not good enough!"
At this moment, Li Mengyao suddenly said:
"Lingzhi, I'm going to the bathroom."
"okay."
Ling Zhi was still a little strange, just go and go, why did you tell me specifically.
Afterwards, Ling Zhi and Zhao Shiyan watched TV while squeezing ingots. The program had gradually transitioned to the stage of opera. There is no doubt that this time belongs to the older generation.
However, as long as Ling Zhi can remember, both his grandparents and grandparents have gone to bed relatively early and generally cannot see the stage when the opera appears. Ling Zhi is quite puzzled, since he can't see it, why should he arrange it?
But now, he can somewhat understand that arranging it during this period should be a helpless move.
"Ling Zhi, I feel like the program is starting to get boring. How about we change the channel!"
Zhao Shiyan began to actively "make trouble" again.
"Okay, let's change it and see if there are any different programs on other channels."
Lingzhi naturally won't hold on to the Spring Festival Gala.
As a result, Zhao Shiyan browsed for a long time. Almost all TV stations were broadcasting the Spring Festival Gala, and only the movie channel was showing previous movies.
"Just watch this, it seems like a ghost movie!"
Zhao Shiyan said.
Ling Zhi looked up and saw a little girl on the screen. Her hair was so long that it almost reached the ground. Her eyes were staring at the people outside the screen, which made Ling Zhi a little scared.
But this movie seems to be called "The Li Family Has a Young Girl". Is this...sure it's not a romance movie?
"What are you doing? You obviously named it a romance movie, but the director actually made a horror movie? Shi Yan, have you seen this movie before?"
"No! Why doesn't the screen move? Is it stuck?"
Indeed, the little girl has been watching it for 10 seconds, why hasn’t it cut off the screen?
Ling Zhi suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. Could it be that there was a supernatural incident?
But at this moment, the little girl finally moved!
I saw her face getting closer and closer to the screen, until...
"ah!"
Suddenly a scream broke the silence in the room.
The two stood up at the same time and looked towards the bathroom. They saw that Li Mengyao had just walked out of the bathroom and fell to the ground, seemingly frightened by the content that had just appeared on the screen.
Zhao Shiyan quickly went up and helped her up. Ling Zhi turned to look at the TV screen. At this time, the little girl with long hair hanging down had been held in the hands of another little girl. Only then did Ling Zhi realize that the little girl with long hair hanging down was in the hands of another little girl.
The little girl on the ground is just a plastic model, but the camera is too close to her and magnifies her.
Damn it! This is a bad movie! Does it rely on this kind of thing to attract attention?
Ling Zhi secretly complained, walked to Li Mengyao, and asked her if she was okay.
Li Mengyao waved her hand, indicating that she didn't need to worry about herself, and then sat down on the sofa without any intention of continuing to help Ling Zhi pinch the Yuanbao.
Naturally, Ling Zhi wouldn't care about such a trivial matter. He picked up the remote control at hand and prepared to change the channel. No dog would watch such a bad movie!
"Um, Lingzhi, it's okay. Although I was really shocked just now, there is no need to change the channel. And I seem to remember watching the introduction to this movie not long ago. The content is quite heartwarming. How about we use this
Take a look if you get a chance."
"Oh? Is that so? It's interesting. I want to see how he captures the warmth in his photos."
So, the three of them started looking for topics around the movie again.
What surprised Ling Zhi was that the opening of this movie was a bit offbeat, but the middle process was really a masterpiece!
The movie generally tells the story of a girl who likes to collect weird toys since she was a child. She becomes withdrawn, becomes able to have normal conversations with people, and finally successfully unties her knot and meets her own happy love.
I have to say that the director's ability to control the audience's emotions is really strong. The two girls burst into tears. Ling Zhi also felt that the evaluation he just made in his heart was a bit arbitrary. A movie that can be screened simultaneously during the prime time of the Spring Festival Gala.
The quality is really not bad!
But while he was watching a movie, Ling Zhi suddenly noticed that the time was almost 12 o'clock!
I heard that a long time ago, everyone would set off firecrackers at midnight during the Lunar New Year. However, in recent years, they almost no longer set off firecrackers. Not all things left by our ancestors are worthy of inheritance.
Naturally, Lexus was not in a hurry to set off firecrackers, but took out his mobile phone, clicked on the WeChat messages of his relatives and friends, and wished them New Year greetings.
This is also a habit he has developed over the years.
First, I would like to greet my seventh and eighth aunts, then Ling Zhi would like to say hello to Chen Feng and Lin Qisong, and finally my lab instructor, classmates, and coaches.
After going around in a circle, he suddenly remembered someone. After hesitating for a while, he still chose to send the New Year greeting message:
"Qingyue, happy New Year!"
Soon, Han Qingyue replied to Ling Zhi's message:
"Senior brother, happy Chinese New Year!"
"Haha, I didn't expect you to really reply to me. How about it? At this time, you should be with your 'dad'."
Ling Zhi contacted Han Qingyue once in a previous reporting incident, and that time Han Qingyue accidentally revealed that she also had a "father".
Ling Zhi guessed that this "dad" character was probably her manager or inventor, or even Han Wensheng.
But it doesn’t matter who it is. What’s important is that for Han Qingyue, the role of “father” exists. So, normally, Han Qingyue should sit in front of the TV and accompany her like herself.
Let’s celebrate the Spring Festival with her “dad”.
However, Han Qingyue's answer was beyond his expectation:
"No! Dad went to Pengcheng on a business trip, and I'm still working in the company."
