"Add a friend and remember to take me with you next time you refresh the book."
The clock on the wall kept ticking, and when I looked at the time, it was already 10 o'clock in the evening.
Chu Yun said goodbye to Hua Xia and his teammates in the game and left the game.
Looking at the icon of the "Heroic Age" crown on the screen, Chu Yun was a little dazed. He had just received a call from his old friend Wei Shuping, asking about the follow-up to yesterday's incident.
By the way, yesterday...
If it weren't for yesterday's unexpected farce, Chu Yun probably wouldn't even have heard of the name Heroic Century, let alone playing games.
He lit a cigarette casually and let his thoughts fly in the smoke.
Chu Yun remembered that it was such a gloomy weather when he left the company.
Chu Yun, male, 26 years old, Han nationality.
He was born with a good-looking appearance, but he was just a bastard waiting to die.
Taking a closer look at his experience, he is quite satisfactory, with no outstanding points. He studied computer programming for 4 years in college. After graduating, he found a job as a network maintenance worker in a game company, and finally got a job as the department head of Sesame Mung Bean.
But I don’t want to be overturned by an unexpected financial tsunami.
The company laid off employees, and Chu Yun did not expect that his name would be on the list.
Seeing the nephew of a certain executive who was usually domineering and domineering, pouring sarcastic remarks into his ears, Chu Yun did not make him feel too comfortable at least - the dark circle on his right eye was Chu Yun's.
Give him a farewell gift wishing him a better career.
Carrying luggage that could be packed into a cardboard box from the company, Chu Yun sat on the flower bed beside the road in a daze, watching the constant flow of vehicles. Chu Yun lit a cigarette and let time pass by.
I don’t know how long it took, but the phone rang.
When Chu Yun looked at the caller ID, it was his buddy Wei Shuping.
"I said, Lao Yun, I heard that you are broken up in love?" came a hearty baritone voice, and the other party asked straight to the point.
"Old Wei, your news is out of date. The socialite in the company and I broke up last month. People think I am poor and have short ambitions."
"Out of date? What's the latest news?"
"I was fired from the company." Chu Yun said very calmly, a bit like he didn't care.
"Damn, is it really true?"
"It's true. The grandsons of the company all said they would lay off employees during the recession, and they kept adding relatives to the company. I was unlucky, and I didn't have a brother-in-law who was the technical director, so I was unlucky."
"Those grandsons..." Wei Shuping couldn't help but cursed, but this kind of thing is not strange in today's society, "Well, let's book a table somewhere tonight, and we brothers won't get drunk tonight.
Not return."
"No? I have to look for a job tomorrow morning." Chu Yun smiled lightly.
"There's no need to be in such a hurry, why not take this opportunity to rest for a while and adjust your mood?"
"The job is gone, and I have to worry about having no money. No more than women, no one will die if I lose it... You see, my one-year lease is up in a few days, and I have to pay the rent. I still have to pay the rent."
Just find a stable job as soon as possible."
"Is it really that miserable? No, I'll get some first."
"No, I still have some savings to cope with it for a while. Besides, your expenses are relatively high."
"Then, how about you move in with me? My house is big enough. Except for the food expenses, everything else is mine."
"I won't disturb you and Peipei without my sense of humor. Good gay friends are good gay friends. It's not easy to find a good wife these days. I accept your wishes. Don't mention this matter again."
"..." Wei Shuping's voice was silent for a while behind the phone, "Haha, I feel like I'm getting older, and I'm not as comfortable living as I used to be. I have to think through everything before I understand it."
"We are good brothers, and we will be for the rest of our lives." Chu Yun took the last puff of his cigarette and put out the cigarette butt.
"Then we must all get together tonight. This will fulfill my wish, big brother."
"Hey, Old Wei, you are rubbing your nose and face so hard. In terms of seniority, I am at the top, right?"
"That's old time. Are you married? In terms of life experience now, I am ahead of you, so as the elder brother, it is appropriate and necessary for me, the elder brother, to comfort my younger brother's emptiness, loneliness and coldness at the right time.
"
"...Haha, okay, okay, okay."
"Where are you now?"
"Still squatting by the platform not far from the company - uh, old company."
"Then I'll drive to pick you up after work later, and we two brothers can have a good time - it's still early, why don't you find a place to kill some time first."
"Bar?"
"Hey, my young man of the new era, you haven't forgotten the time when we were in junior high school and high school, forgetting sleep and food, fighting fiercely day and night, this holy place full of memories, right?"
"Haha, it's nothing like that. I played really crazy at that time. The little pocket money I tried to save was all used for filial piety management, stone magic, war3, cs, wow... I still miss the time when I skipped the self-study class and was a group of people.
It’s time to play World of Warcraft RPG at the bar.”
"You haven't played games for a long time, haven't you?"
"I haven't played games for a long time. Since I went to college, I have only been exposed to computers. Over time, I've gotten tired of them. I just read the news and watch movies."
"Are you no longer passionate? You were the champion of our city back then!"
"Haha, you are still talking about such a big champion?"
"I remember that you were the best at playing games back then, especially competitive games. Whether it was CS or World of Warcraft, everyone liked to share a share with you. At that time, you won a lot of big and small games.
A champion.”
"I just remember that because of this, my dad found out that I was skipping school to play in a game, and he gave me a severe whipping. He didn't give me a dime of pocket money for three months."
"There's nothing you can do about it. Concepts were different at that time. E-sports was called playing with things to lose one's ambition. If it were regulated as it is now and a special project was set up, it wouldn't be the case. But if you persisted at that time, maybe it would be done now.
Won several WCG championships?"
"Hahaha, are you bragging too much? My face is turning red. Come on, I'd better find a bar and watch a movie while I wait for you."
"That's it, I'll give you a call when the time comes."
After hanging up the phone, Chu Yun glanced back at the rows of office buildings behind him and left without any nostalgia.
-----
This area is close to an industrial park, so it's harder to find than you think.
It took Chu Yun five minutes to find a medium-sized bar at a nearby street corner.
In front of the counter, Chu Yun opened a temporary card. He originally wanted to find a seat nearby, but after asking, he learned that this bar is divided into smoking and non-smoking areas. He originally wanted to go to the smoking area alone along the aisle, but
However, his attention was attracted by a group of students blocking the road.
Chu Yun took a few glances and saw that the group of people were of different heights, fat and thin, but none of them were wearing school uniforms. When Chu Yun thought about it, he remembered that now is no different than back then, half of them were underage - now they all have to
You are only allowed to open a card if you have an ID card. If you think about it, these people are at least high school students or above, or college students... No matter how high they are, it is impossible. The childish appearance of each one makes Chu Yun feel somewhat nostalgic.
.
It was this accidental sense of closeness that made Chu Yun stop in his tracks. He wanted to see what games young people today like to play.
But before he got too close, Chu Yun vaguely heard the quarrel. Looking at the group of people gathered in such a circle, Chu Yun secretly screamed.
Looking at Guan who was not far away, he kept poking his head here with concern. Chu Yun also had the idea that it would be better to save one trouble than to do too much. However, because he was a head taller, with such a casual glance, he saw that he was surrounded by boys in the crowd.
The people surrounding him looked like young girls.
"Ahem, um, classmates, isn't it appropriate for so many of you to gather around a girl's house?"
Chu Yun still couldn't stand it, and patted the shoulder of the nearest boy. In order to show that he was not looking for trouble, but to mediate, he deliberately put on a face that he thought was kind.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Chu Yun's face, especially the young girls in the circle, who were looking at Chu Yun intently.
Hey, she is still a legendary beautiful girl.
"Speaking of which, uncle, who are you? A hero saves a beauty, but you are not a country?"
If these words were said to these young people, Chu Yun would not feel any sense of violation, but what surprised Chu Yun was that the person who said these words was not someone else, but the one who was surrounded by boys.
The girl in the center of the circle had her eyebrows raised, her almond-shaped eyes wide, and her hands folded across her chest, showing an impatient look on her face.
Big...Uncle? Who do you mean?
Chu Yun looked around for a while, but did not see anyone who could be called an uncle. When he met the girl's direct gaze, Chu Yun felt his face burning.
What's wrong with Zhengyichun? Now it's a big embarrassment!
