After finishing the magazine shoot with great energy, Lu Zhiwei said goodbye to Wen Yao and Wenwen with a heavy heart.
Although Meng Langcheng hasn't found her yet, he may be planning a big move, and it will be even more miserable to see where she is sent.
she sighed.
Remonstrance is really not something ordinary people can do...
But regret it, and I can't say it.
As long as Meng Langcheng doesn't let go of her obsession for a day, even if she doesn't say these things today, she will say them next time.
As long as it's for Sang Wanci, it's worth it!
Wen Yao and Wenwen watched her get off the car and walked into the elevator.
I don't know why, but they always feel an inexplicable sense of seeing death as home? ?
Wen Yao, Wenwen: Did something happen...
…
Lu Zhiwei collapsed on the sofa at home.
It was snowing outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The sky was a little dark, just like her current mood.
"Ugh… "
She sighed heavily again.
It's probably dead now...
After staring blankly at the leisurely snow scene for a while, she picked up her phone, opened WeChat, and swipe the content of her chat with Sang Wanci.
Sang Wanci also has a lot of work today, so she won't be able to go home until evening.
She put down the phone, took it down, and put it down again.
In this cycle, a mass of entanglement.
That was Meng Langcheng, who was Sang Wanci's father after all...
She scolded her girlfriend's father, this kind of behavior seems to be too crazy, right
It's better to take the initiative to be honest with your girlfriend, otherwise it will be a horror story when Meng Langcheng tells Sang Wanci...
So she grabbed her phone and typed resignedly.
[Lu Zhiwei]: Baby, I saw your dad in Shengyue today
[Lu Zhiwei]: He met me
[Lu Zhiwei]: Then I scolded him in front of him... [Cracked]
After ten minutes—
[Sang Baobao]:
Sang Wanci called.
Lu Zhiwei connected miserably.
Lu Zhiwei buried his face in the sofa: "Hello..."
Sang Wanci's voice was calm: "What did you scold him for?"
Lu Zhiwei recalled the sentence he scolded the most: "I scolded him...'Meng Langcheng'?"
"?"
"This is the worst thing I've ever scolded. Wouldn't it be a little more fierce if you put your first and last names together?"
She hasn't scolded people much, and she won't be rude to her elders.
Especially when the girlfriend and her father are opposite.
If she dared to be rude to her girlfriend's father, none of the nine clans in her next life would be holy enough to punish her!
After she finished speaking, she heard a chuckle from the receiver.
Sang Wanci asked with a smile, "You only called his name?"
Lu Zhiwei drew circles on the sofa, and said in a weak voice, "No, I said something else...
"I said he is forcing you, it is wrong to impose your mother's dream on you. I also said he can, let him do it by himself, saying that what is he capable of forcing his daughter..."
Lu Zhiwei leaned back, leaning on the back of the chair and looking at the ceiling.
"Your dad was angry at the time... Oh, I'm irrational, I feel like I'm going to die."
Unexpectedly, after speaking, Sang Wanci's smile became more obvious.
Lu Zhiwei: "...?"
I'm so miserable, your dad is so angry, and you're laughing
Isn't this a bit wrong
After listening to Lu Zhiwei's description, Sang Wanci felt a little funny when he thought about Lu Zhiwei's usual appearance.
The most swearing language is to call names directly.
There is nothing wrong with scolding content.
But Lu Zhiwei dared to talk to her father like this because of her, she was actually very happy, her whole heart seemed to be blown by the warm sun, gentle and warm.
Lu Zhiwei always says that she is her light, but in fact she is not her light
Bravely loving her light.
"Zhiwei," she chuckled, "If you were given another chance, would you still say these words to him?"
There was silence on the phone.
After a while, the answer came through the receiver.
"meeting."
"As long as he still treats you like this," Lu Zhiwei said firmly, "I will still say that."
As she said to Meng Langcheng, nothing compares to Sang Wanci's pain.
She couldn't help but watch the person she liked fall into the abyss of pain.
Life is only once, no matter what, try to live a chic and carefree life.
With her words, everything is worth it.
Sang Wanci bent her eyes and said softly, "Don't worry, I'm here."
You protect me, and I will protect you too.
Lu Zhiwei's heart likes to hear her say this the most, it seems that as long as she promises so, no matter what happens, it will be settled.
It's like a reassurance.
However, in view of the previous agreement, Lu Zhiwei still wants to say: "But you can't make another agreement like last time just to solve the problem, it won't work, do you understand?"
"Yeah. I know."
After hanging up the call, Sang Wanci turned around and called Meng Lianyu.
"Auntie, there is something I want to tell you."
…
Meng Lianyu has obviously returned to Meng's house more often recently.
Mainly to keep an eye on Meng Langcheng, to see if he is angry or not.
As a result, Meng Langcheng's daily life was still the same.
Read books, read newspapers, do work.
Sometimes I would ask the secretary about the company at home.
But they didn't ask Sheng Yue, let alone mention Lu Zhiwei precisely.
His expression was so calm that he seemed to have forgotten about such a person.
Or... He had already arranged what to do with her.
So one day, Meng Lianyu stopped Meng Langcheng's secretary Wu Feng at the gate.
Wu Feng called out respectfully: "Mr. Meng."
Meng Lianyu waved her hand, telling him not to be so polite, and said straight to the point: "Xiao Feng, let me ask you, did Director Meng say how to deal with Sheng Yue's Lu Zhiwei? Hmm?"
Wu Feng thought back and said, "No."
Meng Lianyu: "?"
"The day Lu Zhiwei and my brother got into an argument, were you not there?"
"I am here."
"Then why don't you know?"
"Boss Meng, it's not that I don't know, it's true that I don't."
"...?"
Meng Lianyu was curious: "Didn't my brother be very angry that day?"
Wu Feng nodded: "Yes, Director Meng is very angry."
Meng Lianyu: "He's so angry, why doesn't he say anything about punishment?"
Wu Feng nodded firmly again: "Yes, Director Meng was very angry that day, but he was also very silent. I didn't see him mention Miss Lu afterwards."
Meng Lianyu raised her eyebrows: "Ah... so."
She smiled and patted Wu Feng's shoulder: "I understand, thank you, go ahead."
Wu Feng bowed slightly towards her, and then left.
Meng Lianyu looked at the huge room.
The winter wind blew past her ears, blowing her long hair.
The chill was so cold that she didn't feel it, she was lost in thought, as if trapped in her own world.
When Meng Langcheng came down from the stairs, he saw his sister standing at the door blowing the air.
"..."
He said to his aunt: "Sister Ming, make her a cup of hot tea, and bring her some clothes, lest she freeze to death."
Meng Lianyu regained consciousness after hearing the words, and watched Meng Langcheng turn on the TV to watch the news.
To be honest, her brother really cares about the health of the family.
He's not a good person at all. Whenever he has obsessions, he's easy to get into a dead end and annoying.
This time, she must think of a good way to directly resolve this father-daughter conflict and solve his heart trouble, so as to comfort her sister-in-law!
…
In the blink of an eye, January is late.
Lu Zhiwei gradually became Buddha in the mentality of waiting to go home and farm every day.
She didn't know whether Meng Langcheng wanted to deal with her or not, she didn't care anymore, as long as she was notified when he was "distributed to the frontier".
This year, their careers are booming, and they are overwhelmed with cooperation invitations from all walks of life.
Sang Wanci is now a well-known actress, so naturally she has more jobs.
In the past few days, she and Zhang Xianrui have been rushing around to make announcements, and the market will be safe in two days.
And the day before she returned to Anshi happened to be Fang Xiaoying's birthday.
Fang Xiaoying's birthday this time is different from every previous year.
This time there are gifts, blessings, and someone remembers her.
The moment she received the gift, tears welled up in her eyes.
Inside is a particularly beautiful mug with the head of a cute plush kitten.
There is another letter.
There were a lot of words of encouragement in this letter, mostly in the hope that she could live a good and optimistic life.
——Life is full of wonderful things, being with others is one kind, and forming a universe by itself is also a kind.
This is what Miss Xiaolu gave her.
Fang Xiaoying looked at the letter, tears fell down and wet the letter paper.
Seeing this, she hurriedly wiped away the tears, for fear that this gentle kindness would be blurred by tears.
She read and re-read the letter and gift, and the tears this time were the happiness that comes from suffering.
Even if only one person remembers her, that's enough.
She wiped away her tears, picked up her phone and opened WeChat.
[Fang Xiaoying]: Sister Xiaolu, I received the gift, I really like it!
It is more than four o'clock in the afternoon.
Lu Zhiwei had just returned home from work and was changing shoes at the door when he happened to see her send a message.
Seeing that she said she liked it, Lu Zhiwei was relieved.
[Lu Zhiwei]: As long as you like it
[Xiaoying]: Well, sister, are you free now? Is it convenient to make a phone call
Lu Zhiwei casually put the bag away.
[Lu Zhiwei]: Yes, what's the matter
[Xiaoying]: I want to call you and say thank you personally
Lu Zhiwei smiled, and took the initiative to dial her phone.
"Xiaoying."
Hearing this sound, Fang Xiaoying couldn't restrain her mood just after tidying up.
—she remembered her, always remembered.
Lu Zhiwei heard her crying on the other end of the phone, and didn't ask her what she was crying for, but only comforted her gently with a gentle voice.
At the moment they are more like close sisters.
The younger sister can express all emotions, and there is no need to worry about no one to confide in, because the older sister is always by her side, shining on her forever like a warm sun.
Fang Xiaoying couldn't stop crying.
As long as she cried, Lu Zhiwei stayed with her for as long.
When she had cried enough and was tired from crying, Lu Zhiwei said playfully, "Seeing that your voice is hoarse from crying, it's just right, take the cup I gave you to moisten your throat with a glass of water. Drinking more water is good for your physical and mental health."
Fang Xiaoying laughed through tears.
"With the cup from Miss Xiaolu, I will definitely drink water!"
"Drink well without the cup I gave you," Lu Zhiwei said earnestly, "The most important thing is good health."
Fang Xiaoying nodded while wiping her tears on the other end of the phone, and said yes repeatedly, it seemed that she would not say any other words except this one.
Lu Zhiwei's expression suddenly softened, and he sighed softly: "Silly boy..."
She knew how hard Fang Xiaoying was, how sad, and how difficult it was.
Those who have experienced this suffering are more able to empathize with each other.
She thinks the tags may have appeared by accident.
So she wants to work hard and work hard. After the world line is repaired, she hopes that these gray labels will disappear and everyone can have a normal life.
Then she suddenly heard Fang Xiaoying crying: "Since I was young, no one has been so kind to me..."
Lu Zhiwei couldn't help but startled: "What did you just say...?"
From small to large
In other words, Fang Xiaoying was in the same situation as hers, she was always transparent before the accident happened? !
She originally thought that only she was the original accident in this world, and the rest of Xiao Transparent was affected by the accident just like her protagonist's halo.
But now another person told her: I am the same as you.
This surprised her so much that she forgot to speak for a while.
Holding the phone, she stared blankly at the void in front of her eyes.
At this moment, everything in front of him suddenly became extremely strange.
Fang Xiaoying on the phone was still talking to her.
"Sister Xiaolu, you heard me right, I have been a transparent person since I was a child.
"To be honest, I don't even know how I survived to this day... If I hadn't met you last time, I probably wouldn't have survived.
"Thank you, really thank you, thank you for remembering me..."
The smile on Lu Zhiwei's face dissipated little by little.
My mind suddenly went blank.
The chest was stuffy and congested, as if being nailed by someone, and the pain was so painful that I couldn't breathe.
She suddenly felt something faintly.
"Xiaoying," she said, "I suddenly have something urgent, can I talk to you later?"
Fang Xiaoying thought it was work, so she didn't dare to delay her, and immediately wiped away her tears: "Okay, okay, go, Miss Xiaolu!"
Lu Zhiwei was about to hang up the phone, but before he hung up, he suddenly remembered that it was her birthday, and picked up the phone to add: "Also, I wish you a happy birthday, please be happy."
Fang Xiaoying laughed on the other end of the phone: "Well, I will be happy!"
Call terminated.
Lu Zhiwei stood in the living room with his mobile phone, motionless.
The dead stillness is like the waves in the sea, and the world falls into silence.
Lao Wu had heard her conversation with Fang Xiaoying just now.
Feeling something, he stopped what he was doing, wiped his glasses, and waited for Lu Zhiwei to ask him something.
Lu Zhiwei suddenly felt stupid.
When she saw the gray label, she should have known that it had something to do with the system.
But she didn't ask, not even a deeper, malicious speculation.
Because of Lao Wu, she has always been willing to trust the system.
But at this moment, her trust was shaken, and might even collapse.
It depends on Old Wu—no, on what answer the system will give her.
"I want to use the right to know."
There was no expression on her face.
She didn't know what expression she should make now.
[Okay,] Lao Wu responded to her like this, [Host, please ask a question.]
It was the serious tone of customer service again.
Lu Zhiwei doesn't care anymore, this is not something she should care about now.
She opened her lips, but no sound came out.
What is she going to ask
Just asking a gray label
No, this is not enough, she wants to know more, even the system of the whole world.
"Tell me," she made up her mind, her eyes were shining brightly, "the system of this world is not allowed to hide anything from me."
[…]
Lao Wu confirmed it to her twice.
[Is the host sure about this problem?]
Lu Zhiwei nodded her head vigorously, her gaze was determined, as if no one could shake every decision she made.
Seeing her persistence, Lao Wu could only tell the whole story.
At this point today, there is actually nothing to hide.
Lu Zhiwei should indeed know these things, not to mention that she is using the right to know, not breaking the rules.
Lu Zhiwei sat on the chair and listened intently to Lao Wu's words.
[The system of this world is different from other worlds because it is a test product for our mastermind.]
Hearing the word "experimental product", Lu Zhiwei frowned uncomfortably.
The "main brain" sounds like the person with the highest authority in the system.
To put it bluntly, the administrators like Lao Wu still work for the mastermind.
[This world is used as a double-layer structure experiment.
[The first layer is the base, that is, the normal world where all beings are equal.
[The second layer is built on top of the first layer. You can understand it as the novel world. In this layer, the characters are officially divided into primary and secondary.
[No matter what the status of the selected people is on the second floor, they must strictly follow the plot, and they must be what the plot wants them to be.]
Lu Zhiwei seemed to understand.
"You said the vicious supporting role back then, those who can turn back are not bad by nature, and those who don't turn back are by nature...
"So it means like Xiaoying, he was actually a good person on the first floor, but after being selected to the second floor, he was forcibly turned into a vicious supporting role because of the needs of the script? Is it because of this that he was led back to the right path?"
[Yes,] Lao Wu said, [This world is still a test product, many places are immature, and there have been accidents, so the way to change the fate of supporting characters will be much simpler.]
"..."
Lu Zhiwei: "You guys are forcing girls into prostitution..."
What did Ying Xize do wrong
What did others do wrong
A good person is turned into a bad person.
A lot of villains haven't come to a good end yet. If someone is a good person but is played like a puppet later and ends up miserable, then it's too wronged!
Old Wu let her scold him.
This is the mastermind's decision, what right do they have to change it
At most, he would just sit here and be scolded for the mastermind.
[I haven't finished yet.]
Lu Zhiwei restrained his anger temporarily: "Then you continue talking."
[Except for the protagonists, supporting roles, and transparent people who are placed above the second-tier system, the rest of the people are passers-by, who are actually people who live a normal, ordinary life on the first floor.]
"?"
Lu Zhiwei never thought that the transparent person was also on the second floor.
"Why are we also on the second floor?"
[because…]
When Lao Wu's words reached this point, he obviously paused.
He also seemed to feel very inappropriate, so it was difficult to speak.
Lu Zhiwei suddenly had a strong sense of foreboding.
[Because,] Lao Wu regained his tone, and said truthfully, [You are the ones who provide luck for the protagonist and supporting roles.]
Lu Zhiwei was stunned when he heard that.
Old Wu said: [Luck, you can understand it as the attention of this world.
[The smaller and more transparent you are, the more dazzling the protagonist will be and the more attention will be paid, and the supporting role will also get more attention than Passerby A.
[That's how the luck of the second-tier system will be balanced.]
To put it bluntly, the protagonist's halo is a halo that climbs up by stepping on one small transparency after another.
This is their gloom, the brilliance of bitterness and tired tears.
Lu Zhiwei looked at the void in astonishment, then lowered his head and covered his head.
how so…
why is this...
Is he telling her now that her past was trampled underfoot by her current lover and friend
But Sang Wanci and Ying Xize don't know anything...
And now she is the new protagonist.
She climbed from the bottom to the top by mistake, and ended up helping the evildoers knowing nothing.
Just now, there was another girl who was as transparent as her before, crying and suffering.
In the end, she snatched away the light from others...
Lu Zhiwei tightly closed his eyes, his face full of pain.
Her heart was like falling into an ice cave, so cold that she couldn't breathe.
Someone seemed to be blaming her constantly in her ears, disturbing her conscience and causing her endless pain.
She asked with red eyes: "So after the world line is repaired, this double-layer structure will still exist, and innocent people will still become little transparent...Is it?"
Lao Wu didn't admit it, but he didn't deny it either.
Lu Zhiwei got the answer from his silence.
The vision in front of him suddenly blurred.
A tear fell silently to the ground.
It was cold and windy outside, but every word that Lao Wu just said was not as cold to her ears.
"No wonder Bai Zhi wants to leave, no wonder someone will attack this world... This is a deformed and unreasonable world at all!"
[Zhiwei,]Old Wu lowered his eyes, extremely guilty, [Sorry...]
The house was silent for a long time.
After a long time, Lao Wu heard Lu Zhiwei say: "I don't accept it."
She clutched her arms tightly, her voice trembling: "I don't accept..."
She could have lived like a normal person.
She could have lived a little easier, a little happier.
Why should she deprive her of her right to live
Why do other people have the life they want at their fingertips, but they have to work hard just to live
Tears wet the pillow drop by drop.
With resentment, unwillingness, and endless sadness and pain.
She feels sad and irritated for everyone who is struggling in this world.
It's ridiculous that she used to think about doing the task well so that more people could be prevented from becoming transparent...
She obviously didn't want to hurt anyone...
Lu Zhiwei gradually stopped suppressing his crying and burst into tears.
She cried very sadly, her heart seemed to be torn apart, and her heart was broken.
Old Wu couldn't bear to look any more, so he looked away.
He closed his eyes hard, as if he could escape reality for a while.
sorry Sorry.
He actually didn't know why the main brain did this.
He never thought that they were in such pain before.
He thought that that accident might also be God's arrangement.
It requires him to face the cruelty of the system and Lu Zhiwei's pain and struggle.
It also has to tear off their masks and make him ask himself whether it is right or wrong to do so, should or should not be.
After crying for an unknown amount of time, Lu Zhiwei stopped.
She was leaning on the sofa, looking ahead with red eyes, with a dejected and haggard look, feeling very worried.
She doesn't hate anyone in this world.
She only hated the system, hated the mastermind who played with them like toys.
But that doesn't work.
Instead of sitting still and waiting to die, it is better to take the initiative to attack.
Since Lao Wu said that many parts of this world are immature, it is very likely that the second layer is immature, and there may be some way to bring them back to the normal first layer.
"Old Wu," she said numbly, "tell me, is there a way to return to the first floor?"
Old Wu was taken aback.
[You can't do this.]
Lu Zhiwei suddenly got a little angry again.
At this point, he is still standing on the side of the mastermind. Can he still distinguish between right and wrong? !
"You actually help the mastermind, you really are all the way..."
[You're wrong, I didn't say that for the mastermind.]
Old Wu took off his glasses.
[It's for you.]
