Chapter 627 Reality Is Often More Skinny

Reality is often more skinny.

Sometimes it's completely different than you imagined.

It's like listening to adults promising to buy you a magnetic wand toy that can play chess and join together when they come back from overseas. Then when you wait for them to return home, you find that you only received a The red plastic is full of colorful cartoon characters that fall off as soon as you scratch it, and it's just a low-quality top that flashes and plays simple music.

Maybe it was because the family didn’t have any money at the time, or maybe they couldn’t find it.

But it's more likely that they just don't care at all and think that it's enough for children to have something to occupy themselves, and it's not worth spending so much money and energy.

If you want to understand this, from being full of expectations to being disappointed when you hit the bottom, it feels really...

Oh, so you can only be your own Santa Claus.

Ahem... I'm going too far. I seemed to have exposed something by accident...

In short, through this example, we can see that reality is often relatively skinny, and it will basically not turn out as you expect. Fate will always give you a slap in the face with fatherly love from time to time, allowing you to quickly recognize the reality.

At the beginning of October, after removing the bandage, I finally left the hospital bed to speak intensively with English Level 4 words, and got on the special car back to the small house. I looked at the passing high-rise buildings through the car window on a sunny day with a blue sky. , with the nostalgia of being gone for a month,

Fangran was looking forward to the warm and touching reunion scene after returning from battle like in RPGs. The light suddenly brightened, the petals fluttered, and the warm smile welcomed him. Fangran was thinking about what Shui Linlang told him, "Remember." What does it mean when you remove the balcony railing?

Seeing that no one came out to meet me at the door of the courtyard, I was stunned for a moment, and then I walked to the second floor carrying my bag and pushed the door open...

He found Meng Lang, wearing a tank top and beach shorts, sitting in front of the TV and playing PS4 with a popsicle in his mouth.

Fangran: "..."

For a second just now I was thinking, ‘The reason why no one picked me up might be the kind of surprise welcome party after I enter the door.’ I am really a cute idiot...

And where did the PS4 come from? !

"Well, brother, Nihui is here."

Seeing that Meng Lang had no intention of welcoming at all, biting a popsicle and talking vaguely, he greeted himself without even putting down the handle. He packed a few changes of clothes in the schoolbag that Fang Xiaoran had brought for him. The moment it fell from his hand,

Fangran felt the reality of reality, and she had completely given up on this guy, so she chose their usual way of reuniting...

"Brother, you heartless bastard, suffer death!"

"Fuck...ssssss...go, brother, you have to...oooooooo!"

“Give me back the excitement and anticipation I felt when I got in the car in the afternoon!!!”

Looking at the guy who was enjoying life at home while blowing on the air conditioner, eating popsicles, and playing PS4, he recalled the tragic days when he could only lie in the hospital bed for a week and couldn't even play with his mobile phone. Fang Ran was still filled with grief and anger. When Meng Lang spoke, he grabbed the old popsicle and inserted it back into his mouth.

Then the two of them started to grapple together. The model on the TV screen was clearly a beautiful girl, but for some reason she was a character from a fighting game. Because no one was operating, the opponent who was about to lose was counterattacked, and a set of combos was full!

And then at this moment...

"Brother Meng, aren't you playing a game? Why did you make such a big deal again..."

Gou Yu walked out of the kitchen with a soft and helpless voice, carrying the freshly made ice cream cake.

Seeing the terrible scene where Meng Lang was struggling on the floor while Fang Ran was holding a popsicle in his mouth and making a sound of 'ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,'

The beautiful character on the TV who was so immortal that no one was operating failed and fell down when the light effects and clothes exploded at the same time.

Gou Yu: "..."

This kind of scene always feels like it happened once somewhere (expressionless)...

And do you two only greet each other in this way every time (without any fluctuations in your heart)?

"Forehead..."

The moment I saw Gou Yu appear,

The two people who were still struggling froze in their movements. After looking at what they were doing now, Fangran silently pulled out the popsicle, then tried his best to look at Gou Yu with a bright smile.

"That little or...how did you say that, right! There is only one truth...cough! It is often hidden under the surface of things!"

Gou Yu just looked at him slightly speechlessly, and finally helplessly couldn't laugh or cry, and sighed softly and said:

"Captain, welcome back."

"Uuuuu...Xiaoyou, I haven't seen you for such a long time, and it turns out you still love me. Hug!"

The moment he heard that someone finally welcomed him back, Fangran, who had been away from home for nearly a month, burst into tears. He opened his hands and threw himself at Gou Yu's thigh. Then Gou Yu pushed his forehead with helplessness. Block.

Captain, you have only been away for more than a week, and have your abnormal symptoms worsened again...

"Speaking of which, Captain, why did you suddenly come back today? If you had told us in advance, we could pick you up."

Gou Yu asked Fangran a little strangely, holding down both hands with one hand and rushing toward him like a windmill. After asking this question, he saw Fangran's face blank.

"Brother Suqun said he could just send me back, but he told me that he had told you."

"Huh? But I didn't receive the call?"

Gou Yu was also confused for a moment. He had no idea that Fang Ran would come back today. Seeing that his little one didn't seem to understand at all, Fang Ran blinked blankly and thought for a moment.

Then both of them looked at Meng Lang silently.

"Forehead...."

Adhering to the principle of eating frugally and not wasting money, Meng Lang, who licked the popsicle soup from the corner of his mouth, saw the two people's gazes, felt embarrassed, turned his face towards the balcony on the other side and laughed:

"Speaking of which, it seems that I did receive a call from Brother Suqun saying that he will be back today..."

"Brother..."

Fangran suddenly stared at him with a calm face and asked without any fluctuation in his voice:

"Tell me honestly, did you stay at home and play games all day while I was recovering from my injuries? Depending on your answer, I will decide whether to use climax punishment on you."

"Wait! Brother! Listen to my explanation. I didn't want you to be bored while you were recuperating, so I used the money we spent selling shaved ice to buy this PS4 to send to you, but I didn't dare to do it with girl Xiaoran here. , so I had to...cough..."

Meng Lang coughed in embarrassment mid-sentence, then righteously patted his chest and promised!

"But believe me, brother, I knew you liked playing games so I bought it with all my heart. I definitely didn't want to play it myself!"

"real?"

Hearing him mention that Fang Xiaoran seemed to be in such a situation, Fang Ran asked with a suspicious look on his face. Meng Lang pulled him over and found a handle and put it into his hand. He gave a thumbs up and smiled:

"Hey~ of course it's true. Come on, brother, come and try it and you'll know."

"But I actually have no interest in this kind of video game..."

...

Four hours later.

"Fuck! I don't accept it! Let's play it again! Let's play it again! I will definitely beat you this time!"

In the spacious living room of the magical boy, in front of the ultra-thin TV bought during the last renovation, Meng Lang, who had been beaten by the King of Fighters all afternoon, pursed his lips as he looked at Fang Ran, whose eyes were shining and would not give up until he won a game. The expression was relatively hard and silent.

Brother, you said you are not interested...?

Sighing helplessly, he clicked start again and entered the selection interface. Meng Lang looked at the bright and bright sunshine outside, regretting the vicissitudes of life that he had just used as an excuse. He covered his face and cried bitterly without tears in his heart.

And brother, your game talent is too good. Do you dare to win a game and let me go to the toilet...!
