That night, I had a very unpleasant argument with my dad about having to hand over my salary. I have a lot of things I want to do, but because of my major in school, I don't have any free time. I can only ask my family for living expenses and can't invest in my hobbies. If I bring it up with my parents, they will just say it's not a proper job.
Now that I finally have the opportunity to earn money, I can only keep a little for myself as living expenses, and the rest has to be handed over. To be honest, I am unwilling to do so, especially since he has never really taken care of me.
From childhood to adulthood, I studied with Grandfather in my hometown. When I finished school, he asked me to come work for him. I thought he finally remembered his daughter, but as soon as I arrived, he immediately asked me to find a job.
Yes, I can accept this. After all, I will not be sorry if I ask my family for money after leaving school. But since I have to find a job, I have to find one with similar salary. I can be tired, but I want to make my work valuable. Work is only a part of my life, not my whole life. For me, work is more about learning my hobbies. Now I have the ability to bear the cost without the help of others.
But I didn't expect him to use filial piety to ask me for help out of his family. It's not that I don't care about my family and I don't want to bear part of the expenses for my family, but I just started working and my salary is not much, and his situation at that time didn't look down on my salary at all. His salary was not enough to require me to help him bear part of the family expenses. I couldn't understand it, and I didn't spend it recklessly. I just used it to do what I wanted to do, but this wish could not be realized.
Just graduated, I really can't understand it. I just feel that this family is really suffocating. I really want to escape. That was the first time I argued with him.
Obviously, I can't argue with him because he stands on the moral high ground. No matter from which angle, I am wrong.
It was in that kind of setting that I met Xuan Mo. It's a social app, similar to a confessional, where I don't want to share my unhappiness and sorrows with my friends or family.
Because in their eyes, these things are not worth mentioning. They haven't experienced it, so how can they empathize? They would just treat it as a story.
There is no need to become the subject of others' gossip after dinner.
So I am used to confiding in strangers and getting lost in the world of falsehood on the internet.
But I am particularly clear-headed, I reject everyone's kindness and closeness.
Call me selfish or call me idealistic, I just want to find someone who can slowly open up my world, let him in, and let me completely and unreservedly accept him.
But it's really hard, due to the reasons from my family of origin, I find it hard to fully trust someone.
Whether it's online or in real life.
I always play the role of an older sister, even though I want to talk about my own unhappiness. But even online, where we don't see each other, I can't bring myself to speak. In the end, I become the one comforting others.
But I still want to chat online. Even though I can't solve my own troubles, helping others solve their troubles and getting their recognition makes me happy.
But his appearance made me let go of my guard. I no longer act like a caring older sister, but more like a unreasonable little sister. No matter how I complain about my unhappiness, he will patiently reply to me.
I'm like a drowning person who suddenly grabs onto a piece of drifting wood.
I don't want to let go, and I don't want to know if it's deceiving me.
At that moment, I just wanted to grab onto it and pour out all my grievances to him. That night, we chatted for a long time, and I learned his name. I also knew that he was in a much more painful situation than me. Compared to him, my grievances were really not worth mentioning. we were like two people forgotten in a corner of the world, only able to huddle together for warmth.
Strangely, the next day when I wanted to chat with him again, I couldn't find his information anymore. It was as if he had never existed. I searched through all the chat records, but his chat record was the only one missing.
At that time, I was quite lost.
But I didn't think too much about it. After all, it's not easy to come across someone like that.
I have never been a lucky person.
At that time, I just felt it was a dream. Later, I gradually let it go. But whenever I feel sad, I can always remember what he said, which is a kind of comfort.
I only remember his screen name is period, his name is Qi Xuanmo, he appeared in my dream, that's enough.
But I didn't expect this is not a dream.
"Ying Ying, I thought of you."
He didn't disturb me, just quietly waited for me to finish my thoughts before speaking.
He is really very elegant, just as I imagined.
"Are you really Xuan Mo?"
I looked at him in surprise. It's no wonder I was so excited. He is one of the few people in my life who has comforted and consoled me so sincerely for more than twenty years.
"scatterbrain, I finally remembered that I came."
"But, but, I have a lot of questions to ask, but I don't know how to start."
I watched as he walked up to me and placed a bracelet on my wrist, gently saying, "I know you have a lot of questions, but now is not the time for explanations. You'll know in the future. Right now, the most important thing is your birthday."
Even though he is standing right in front of me, I always feel like this is a dream.
Well, let's just treat it as a dream. I just want to indulge in it now.
"So, shall we eat cake?" I suggested.
"Wait a minute, little gluttonous cat, how can you celebrate your birthday here? We've booked a private room." As he spoke, he wanted to ruffle my head again.
But this time I predicted it,
But going to a private room, isn't this too wasteful? No one has ever valued their birthday so much.
"Silly girl, you deserve it."
"Mm, I deserve it."
I looked at myself holding my hand, feeling warm inside.
I admit that I'm quite pathetic.
"Xuan Mo, why is it so dark in here?"
I was about to turn on the light when the door to the private room was closed.
"Xuan Mo, Xuan Mo?"
I don't know when he let go of my hand. In this kind of dark environment, I really feel so insecure.
Just when I thought it was all fake,
The light turned on,
I watched as they pushed the cake cart away from me, and I admit I cried. I never thought that a scene from a TV drama could happen right in front of me.
I admit that I am very fond of these down-to-earth surprises.
"Hey, why are you crying, Ying Ying? Did I scare you? It's all Sili's fault. He said that girls like this kind of surprise. I'll go help you clean him up in a moment."
Guo Guo As soon as I cried, you panicked and hurriedly wiped away my tears,
Sili sat beside me feeling guilty and restless.
"Okay, Ying Ying is moved to tears, she's very happy," Xuan Mo gently rubbed my head and said.
His eyes are deep and bright, I admit I am completely captivated.
"Really? Ying Ying?"
Guo Guo quickly asked, "Really?"
I started laughing while crying, it's really nice. It would be great if it could always be like this. "It's really nice to have you all here."
"Ah, you suddenly getting sentimental, I'm not used to it!"
Looking at me suddenly snuggling into her arms, Guo Guo was stunned for two seconds, then immediately pushed me away with disgust.
It's great, on this day I feel like I've returned to the time of being a student, back to that carefree time.
Just like that, we cut the cake, played games,
Today is really happy, this is the happiest birthday for me.
Seeing off Sili and Guo Guo, I looked at Xuan Mo standing in front of me, suddenly not knowing what to say.
"I'll take you home?" Xuan Mo asked.
"Go home?"
I was stunned.
Go home? Is this my home?
My head hurts, I seem to hear Xuan Mo calling me, he seems very anxious, I want to tell him, don't panic, I haven't left, but I can't say it, I can only watch his figure getting farther and farther away from me.
"Hello, hello, miss, the movie has ended."
I suddenly opened my eyes and looked at the waiter in front of me.
"Is it over? I was watching the end credits of the movie."
Oh, right, I was watching a movie. I think I fell asleep.
"I'm sorry, I just accidentally fell asleep."
"It's okay."
The waiter looked at me and then walked away.
I tidied up my hair, walked out, and felt like I had forgotten something.
"Brother, brother, that's the young lady who forgot her movie ticket just now."
I turned to look at the little girl who spoke, and I was stunned. A name slipped out of my mouth.
"Xuan Mo?"
