Chapter 123 People’s hearts are fickle
I saw Captain Wang's satisfied expression, and also saw the surprise on Chu Yucheng's can I explain the anxiety in my heart, but my body keeps performing.
After singing a song, the body showed no intention of stopping and sang another one.
"The wind blows the sand into people's faces, the fog confuses the withered grass and there is no edge, and I cut through the thorns and walk to the southeast..."
It turned out to be a song of Mu Guiying taking command.
Although he was not wearing any clothes, he performed all the movements perfectly, swinging his gun, waving his whip, and doing somersaults, which made Captain Wang cheer again and again.
By the time the song was over, Captain Wang had already had a great time and was well-drinking and full.
"As expected of a famous actor, this piece of Mu Guiying is in command, and you always perform it with dignity and majesty. The singing style you use in Yue Opera is not at all soft and sluggish. It is really a pleasure."
Captain Wang stood up, shaking his head. It was getting dark and it was time for him to go home.
After seeing Captain Wang off, Chu Yucheng and I were the only ones left at home.
My body has already started to clean up the dishes, and I am becoming more and more anxious. How can I let him know that the person in front of him is not me?
"Cancan, come here, I have something to ask you."
Chu Yucheng said to "me".
I walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
Chu Yucheng said bluntly: "You are not her, you are the original opera actor. What is your purpose in keeping us here for half a year?"
He has recognized that this is not me.
The moment he asked this question, I found that I could control my body again.
It seemed that he didn't want to answer this question, so Meimei became invisible and gave the body back to me.
My five senses confirmed, and I spoke hastily: "It's me! He put me back!"
There was a moment of confusion in Chu Yucheng's eyes. After I explained everything to him and told him some details of our acquaintance, Chu Yucheng finally believed what I said was true.
Chu Yucheng: "Why did he do this?"
I scratched my head. "Maybe my singing is too bad? He doesn't want me to ruin the song? Or, he doesn't want me to ruin his image in front of others?"
Since we couldn't come to a conclusion, we just gave up.
The days that followed continued as usual, the two of us doing our own jobs and living together.
Because I have been looking forward to it for such a long time, I should be able to go out soon, so I have never been able to say "I like you".
The time seemed to have accelerated, and two years had passed in the blink of an eye.
Because of his outstanding work, Chu Yucheng has been promoted from a junior technician to a senior technician.
Generally speaking, ordinary people need to accumulate experience to get promoted, but Chu Yucheng had figured out the operating principles of various machines early on, helped solve many problems in the factory, and was commended many times, so he was promoted especially quickly.
He has even been working on an upgrade and improvement plan for the machine recently. His home is filled with various drawings, and he is always writing and drawing at his desk.
He is truly a natural born curler.
Nothing special happened during these days, except that one day Chu Yucheng sneaked home with his arms bulging with gifts.
When he took out the thing in his arms, I found it was a pair of shoes.
And it was the same pair of shoes that I saw the evil ghost wearing before I entered empathy, and it was also the same pair of shoes that the senior with the messy hair took in the photo.
Chu Yucheng said, "Captain Wang secretly stuffed this thing into my hands when I was off work today. He said that after Zuiyunlou was raided, he secretly bought a set of your costumes from a worker at Zuiyunlou. He originally wanted to keep it secretly, but after seeing you in person, he felt that these things should still belong to you, so he wanted to return them to you."
My heart was so excited when I saw the pair of shoes, a long-lost warmth rushed into my veins, and the blood in my body seemed to boil. I can be sure that this is the instinctive reaction of this body.
He is an artist with an infinite passion for art, and he feels excited and satisfied when he sees his old things after a long time.
I can already guess how excited “he” was when he saw this pair of shoes, because I can relate to him.
Chu Yucheng continued, "Captain Wang said that he also has headdresses, clothes and other things. They are all complete. But the set is too big. If I give it to you all at once, it will easily attract attention. So I have to find an opportunity to return it to you bit by bit."
In such a chaotic world, there are still people who are willing to risk their lives to secretly collect things for their love. I am really moved: "Remember to return the money to the owner. It is not right for us to take other people's things for free."
Chu Yucheng nodded: "I have already given the money, and he accepted it."
Later, the things were really brought back bit by bit, including a royal blue helmet with auspicious clouds and white edges, with red and white pompoms on it, a long robe with intricate patterns of red and blue, and even the lining, all of which were complete.
Every time I see the lost things being recovered bit by bit, I am so excited that tears well up in my eyes.
Chu Yucheng put the pair of clean shoes at the bottom of the closet and carefully kept them away.
When the day came when all the things were gathered, I looked at the royal blue outfit in the closet, and somehow, my tears flowed like beads that had broken off the string, and I couldn't stop them.
"I" am feeling nostalgic, but I am also worried.
This outfit is exactly the same as the one the hanged man wore before his death.
The seeds of unrest are planted in the heart, taking root and sprouting, and no one knows when they will break through the ground.
"If my proposal is approved this time, I should be able to be selected as a technician, or even a senior technician." Chu Yucheng said.
Generally, when you reach the technician level, you can lead an entire flat-track team and become the captain.
Captain Wang who came to our house for dinner before is a senior technician.
Recently, Captain Wang has frequently come to our home to discuss machine upgrades.
It can be seen that Captain Wang's attitude towards Chu Yucheng has obviously changed. Before, Captain Wang treated Chu Yucheng like a leader treating a small follower, ordering him around from time to time. Now, he no longer orders him around and seems a little distant.
As a result, he is no longer as casual with me as before.
After all, it is reasonable for capable people to be respected by everyone, so I didn’t think much about it.
……
The upgrade plan was very successful and saved a lot of manpower and material resources, so the factory adopted it.
I prepared a table full of delicious food and prepared to celebrate in the evening.
There was a knock on the door. I opened it, but the person who came to greet me was not Chu Yucheng. Instead, a group of people crowded into my room.
The leader was Captain Wang.
My heart suddenly jumped to my throat, and alarm bells rang in my mind. Where is Chu Yucheng? Where did he go? Why did these people come to my house?
Why did Captain Wang come with a group of people?
They looked serious and aggressive, and it didn't look like they had anything good to do with me. Something bad must have happened.
I was just about to ask what they wanted from me when Captain Wang suddenly pointed at me and said loudly, "That's him!"
The people behind him walked up to me without saying a word and tied me up.
Afterwards, these people started rummaging through my house. My little home, which I had carefully decorated for two years, became messy in the blink of an eye. The neatly arranged furniture was overturned one by one, and the pots and pans were scattered all over the floor. It was not until they took out that royal blue outfit from the closet that I finally understood the purpose of their visit.
Captain Wang was very proud: "I said, I have seen this thing in their home before!"
