Entertaining Into Bitterness Drama - Chapter 96
Mercury works in an architectural design company known as the top ten in the industry. She is mainly engaged in residential design, and the salary is considerable. Because of the accumulation of several years, the customer source is also very stable. She is preparing to leave the company to start her own personal studio.
“Do you need me to buy breakfast?”
Mercury glanced at the assistant in a light yellow dress, and couldn’t remember her name. For her, it’s been too long.
“No thanks.”
In the eyes of this little girl, they just haven’t seen each other for a weekend, but Mercury is like a world away, everything in front of her is both familiar and unfamiliar, the colleagues in the office who greet her, she only I vaguely remembered the names of the two people.
Review the work library, familiarize yourself with the design projects you were working on before, and the day will pass in an orderly manner.
On a very ordinary day, both the body and consciousness seem to understand that this is the world they should be in, so they naturally follow the habit and start running.
At her position, there is not much restriction on work and get off work. Several designers have long gone out to talk about work, and some people invited her to have dinner together before leaving in the afternoon. Mercury refused and left alone in the office.
Several members of her project team were restless, waiting for her immediate boss to get off work and go home early. Everyone’s faces were full of surprise, and the little assistant was especially surprised. Holding his bag, he tried to say, “Then I’ll go back first?”
“Go.” Mercury left the computer and workbench, and stood by the window to watch the night view of the city outside. Breaking away from her focused work, she couldn’t help but think of that question again.
Yesterday, she rummaged through every corner of the house, trying to find all the things to recall, she went to the nearby shopping mall, to a coffee shop she used to go to, to listen and see Smell it, taste it, and compare it with the memories you can still remember.
Today, she came to the company to get back the feeling of her former job and observe everyone who knew her.
No problems have been found so far, but she still can’t feel at ease.
Mercury turned around and sat back at the desk, took out a notebook full of words and flipped through it. It was written by her yesterday. She stayed up all night, recalled every world she had experienced, recalled the emergence of the system, restored all the dialogues about the system that she still remembered, and tried to analyze it.
This kind of analysis, she also did at the beginning of time-travel, the further back the world, the less the system appears, the less interference she has, she can’t even analyze anything, there is no After thinking about it again and again, I only feel that the systematic approach lacks logic and purpose.
When it first appeared, it called itself the “Good Woman Correction System”, but its “correction” didn’t last long, and it almost changed from active intervention to passive observation – it was like an experiment .
Can’t go back to the original world. Now she obviously didn’t meet the standard said by the system, but she still came back.
So there are two guesses.
One: She actually met the standard of the system, so she came back. If so, then the standard of the system is not what it said at the beginning, maybe it is not a good women’s correction system at all, it should have another purpose;
Two: She did not meet the standard, so she did not return to the original world, which means that this world that looks no different from her original world is also fake.
There are other possibilities, too few clues, Mercury can’t make a specific analysis, but in her current situation, back to the original world, the system disappeared without a trace, so the matter That’s it, is it possible?
Not possible. It didn’t appear, but it must still be there.
Mercury redrawn a line of words – “Known false world judgment factors: system, plot, characters who have appeared in the world”
She judged the world to be false, all because of the existence of the system and the plot forced into her mind. Just like the last world, even if it was beautiful, it had a system, a plot, and Zhao Duanze and Yao Xin. She could think it was fake, so she was unmoved, and there was only a strong rejection in her heart.
There were no dead people in the last world, and she could leave there. Mercury felt that it had something to do with her own will and the setting of the system. It made her leave.
She once thought, if this can leave the false world, then now? If she also feels that this world is false and strongly wants to leave, will she go to another world? Is there really another world?
But no, Mercury can’t confirm the falseness of this world from the heart. She was born here and builds a complete worldview from here. If she wants to overthrow all of this, where is her footing?
No matter how Mercury thought, in the blink of an eye, a week passed, nothing “strange” happened to her, life was ordinary and trivial, and everyone lived their own life.
At this time, she received a call from Lu Yiyuan.
Lu Yiyuan is her ex-boyfriend who made her believe in love again after her first love with the old beast Qin Chu. The two are university alumni. As a senior, Lu Yiyuan taught her a lot of things and gave her a lot of new life experiences. However, in the end, Lu Yiyuan gave up her girlfriend who had nothing and chose to marry a famous lady from a similar family background. After Mercury refused to be his lover to continue with him, the relationship between the two broke down completely.
After that, he was entangled, and Mercury simply handed over the third boyfriend Kou Ling, and completely separated from him.
Recalling for a while, Mercury remembered that he seemed to have not had any dealings with Lu Yiyuan for a year, and he suddenly called, why?
Due to doubts about everything around her, Mercury answered the call.
Lu Yiyuan seemed to be drunk, shouted her name, kept complaining to her about his wife’s bad things, and then said to her: “I regret it, Ah Yin, I have long been I regret it, I think you come back to me, we are still as happy as before, only you are the most suitable person for me.”
Mercury has no desire to communicate, hangs up the phone, and analyzes whether Lu Yiyuan’s phone call is a “strange” thing in this world.
Lu Yiyuan didn’t just make this call. When he went to work the next day, Mercury received a bouquet of flowers. She opened the card and glanced at it, and it said: “Remember, this is the flower I gave you on our first date.”
Mercury didn’t remember the flower or what the first date was like, but she guessed it was from Lu Yiyuan. Not only that, she could also guess what Lu Yiyuan would do next. He will give her things, flowers, gifts every day, and most likely re-send all the things he gave her when the two were together before, so that she can recall the good past.
Mercury really knew this former lover very well, and Lu Yiyuan sent things every day as she thought. It is a pity that most of the mercury has been forgotten, and even if I remember it, it is not touched.
After one month, Lu Yiyuan appeared in the small square downstairs of the company. He and a dozen of his friends, each driving a convertible sports car, were loaded with roses.
Like countless vulgar idol dramas, this posture attracted many little girls, male and female employees in the building gathered together, took pictures one after another, and eagerly discussed which big money was chasing this people.
Lu Yiyuan couldn’t wait for the heroine to end, so he had to go upstairs with his friends and take the initiative to look for it. Mercury was drawing a sketch with a pen in his hand, and looked up at this group of people who suddenly broke into the company.
“Mr. Lu, what are you doing?”
Lu Yiyuan walked in front of her with an affectionate face: “I once lost my love and regretted it countless times. I didn’t know I couldn’t lose you until I heard that you have a boyfriend again. The news, I realized that I couldn’t stand it. I thought about giving up completely, but I couldn’t. I want to ask you to forgive my old stupidity and want us to start over, so I come to you.”
Mercury raised her eyes and glanced at the excited crowd around her: “Does your wife know you do this kind of thing.”
Lu Yiyuan laughed, “I have divorced her, and I know you and Kou Yu have also broken up. We are all missing each other, only the two of us together are the most suitable.”
He took out a ring and knelt down, “When we were together, I said I would give you a wedding and design a diamond ring for you, but I didn’t Do it, I’m sorry. Now, are you willing to accept this belated ring and my belated promise?”
Mercury began to feel a little strange. Lu Yiyuan and his wife divorced and came to find her for a reunion?
Lu Yiyuan’s friends were joking aside, “Promise to get back together, you two liked each other so much at the beginning, and now you are still together after going around, isn’t it good!”
“Yeah, you missed so long, hurry up and be together!”
“Yiyuan has made up her mind to give you happiness, and now you have to promise!”
Mercury also heard a girl in the company exclaim in a low voice, “It’s so romantic, it’s like a romance novel.”
Looking at the farce in front of her, she picked up the phone without hesitation, “Leave here, don’t disturb our office, I’ll call the police if you don’t leave.”
Mercury sat at the workstation all afternoon, and when it was time to get off work, he picked up his bag and left the company.
She went to see her friend Wenyuan in a nursing home in the suburbs. After she was rejected from high school, Wenyuan was the first person who took the initiative to show kindness to her, so they became friends, and Wenyuan was also her best friend with the longest relationship.
Because she was cheated on by her boyfriend in the past two years, Wenyuan suffered from depression and attempted suicide several times. The situation has not been very good, and she was sent to a nursing home by her family. When she was in a bad state, Wenyuan would refuse Mercury to come and see her.
This time, Mercury didn’t say hello in advance, but when she came over, she saw Wenyuan sitting on the grass joking with people, completely different from the previous state. Seeing her, Wenyuan waved to her very happily, “Mercury, you haven’t come to see me for a long time.”
She smiled like when they first met, she hadn’t suffered from depression because of the on-off entanglement of that boyfriend.
The nurse was also familiar with Mercury and greeted her: “Wenyuan has been in good shape recently. If she can keep it like this, she will be able to come out soon.”
Mercury sat beside Wenyuan, and the nurses left space for them to talk quietly.
“Wenyuan, how are you?”
“I’m fine, I think I can feel happy, and have a renewed interest in photography and piano. After a while, I may be able to continue making music and shooting everywhere. “
Mercury looked at her face carefully, “Is everything getting better?”
Wen Yuan tilted her head, “Yes.”
She approached Mercury and whispered affectionately: “I heard about you, Lu Yiyuan went to you to get back together, right? It’s good, you were so happy back then, I always thought you shouldn’t break up Yes, I’m really happy for you now.”
“Our lives are getting better, which is great.”
“I want to get well soon so I can be your bridesmaid at your wedding.”
“I heard, do you want to open your own studio? I’ll give you a gift, this time you won’t refuse.” Lu Yiyuan didn’t give up, and kept coming to her, “I chose a particularly good studio address for you. It’s the European-style building you said you wanted before, with a garden, how about it?”
Mercury refused.
Wenyuan’s depression has completely recovered, she has completely recovered from the failed relationship as Mercury hoped, and actively devoted herself to a new life.
, you will regret it later.”
Every time she said something like this, Mercury would stare at her for a long time, seeing Wenyuan inexplicably, poking her face with a smile: “Why are you looking at me so strangely? I said right?”
Mercury: “I won’t agree, Wenyuan, don’t say it anymore.”
Lu Yiyuan’s pursuit lasted for a year. Colleagues and friends around Mercury all knew the story of this infatuated man. Mercury can often hear acquaintances laughing and joking: “When will you and Lu Yiyuan get married?”
It seems that they have already decided that they are a couple, Lu Yiyuan’s infatuation, she will definitely respond, and they will get married sooner or later.
Explaining, stopping, not responding, all are useless.
Mercury felt more and more strange, the world suddenly became very small, and the echo became louder and louder, and everyone around was saying the same voice: marriage. It’s as if they are the hero and heroine of a romance novel. If they can’t get back together after the wind and rain, hold a sweet wedding, and form a complete family, the story will not end.
The most absurd thing has finally happened.
Mercury didn’t even remember how it happened, she only knew that when she regained her sanity, the world seemed to be pushed back for a few months. At this time, she had already agreed to Lu Yiyuan’s marriage proposal, The two were getting married on a cruise ship.
She saw the high-end customized wedding dress on her body, Lu Yiyuan with a satisfied smile on the other side, and many guests applauding from the audience, Wen Yuan was especially excited and was taking pictures of them.
—It’s all absurd.
Lu Yiyuan put the ring on her hand and held her waist a little excitedly, “I feel very happy now, in a few months, our child is born, our family It’s complete.”
Mercury pushed him away abruptly, looking at his slightly bulging belly, his face became colder and colder.
Fake, this world is still fake.
She lifted the skirt and ran off the stage, Lu Yiyuan exclaimed from behind: “A Yin, what are you doing?”
Mercury ignored him, Wenyuan put down the camera, ran over and took her hand worriedly, “Mercury, what’s wrong with you? Why is your expression suddenly wrong?”
Mercury pulled out his hand firmly and continued to run through the guests. The guests hummed inexplicably, discussing what happened to the bride. They probably all felt that she looked a little crazy now, but Mercury knew that she was not crazy, it was the world that had a problem.
Lu Yiyuan finally caught up and grabbed her a little unhappily, “Ayin, this is our wedding, don’t make trouble, if you are tired, I will accompany you to rest, don’t give People saw the joke.”
Mercury didn’t say a word, took out the knife in front of the guests, turned around and plunged it into Lu Yiyuan’s chest, blood spurted instantly, Lu Yiyuan fell softly, and the crowd screamed.
The scene was chaotic, some people went to help Lu Yiyuan, some people called the doctor, some people shouted, some people wanted to stop the mercury——
In this noisy scene, Mercury ripped off the flower on her head, threw off her high heels, pushed away countless pairs of hands trying to grab her, stepped on the side of the boat, and without hesitation Jump off the cruise ship.
