Chapter 1: The Days of Black and White Reversed

Next Chapter

Time passes day after day, as if we never know tiredness, reminding us firmly and presumptuously that the passage of time can never be reversed.

At this time, the time has pointed to 2036. And at this moment, it still seems to be one of the countless ordinary mornings.

Its ordinariness is not only reflected in the pedestrians rushing through the streets, and the vehicles twisting and drilling. The most obvious proof of its ordinariness may be the inconspicuous teenager on the side of the street, who lazily mixes in with the crowd at work every morning.

The name of this teenager is Zhao Yuxin.

The name, as it sounds at first glance, is very feminine. Even if it is actually written, it will make people feel that this is a very gender-neutral name. Even, the meaning of this name is more direct, that is, I want the children with this name to receive a good salary every month.

However, it is a pity that providence, after all, likes to play tricks on mortals.

The child, despite being recognizable at a glance, was already an adult man. But it can also be seen at a glance that he has no work experience. Not to mention, if you have one, you can be rich every month, so that he will not be the salary of the moonlight clan.

Actually, this can't blame this child for not working hard. In fact, his thin clothes, and the equally thin body wrapped under his clothes, carried a soul that was only nineteen years old.

Nineteen years old, what a wonderful age. If it is a child of an ordinary family, at this age, I am afraid that they are enjoying the college life they have always dreamed of. Enjoy, the most beautiful time of innocence in life.

However, Zhao Yuxin in front of him obviously did not have this kind of experience. Because, any serious school, at this time, should also start early roll call. However, Zhao Yuxin's classmates were lazily walking towards the early stall.

The one who can still want to eat breakfast at this moment is not a student who has become accustomed to skipping school. Then, he can only be a social freshman who does not need to go to school at all. If, plus he doesn't have a regular and stable job. Perhaps, he can already be classified as the kind of "idle person" in the eyes of community aunts.

Zhao Yuxin is naturally unwilling to be an idle person, and even his lazy appearance at the moment is entirely because he has just finished his day's work.

Yes, the job starts at night. That's why, he gets off work exhausted when others are in a hurry to get to work.

Surprisingly, the job of Zhao Yu salary does not want to be as shady as the exhaustion and sickness that he shows on the surface. On the contrary, in this day and age, the work he is engaged in can be regarded as a very normal job.

Zhao Yuxin's job is precisely the head of a small game studio. It's just that his studio is so small that he has not been able to complete the industrial and commercial registration, and he is the only one including the boss.

As a light pole commander of a "black studio", Zhao Yuxin does not have the consciousness that he may end his career life at any time. On the contrary, he is still feeling enthusiastic about having such a "career" for himself, and he is working hard to fight for it.

After eating some food in a hurry, Zhao Yuxin returned to his nest. It is a small house with a floor area of only 14 square meters. As the parents of Zhao Yuxin, he can leave the only fixed property to Zhao Yuxin. Although this nest is not big, Zhao Yuxin still cherishes this warmth very much.

It's just that in this warmth, there are always some boredoms in sharing toilets and kitchens with others.

Yes, Zhao Yuxin's home is in a unit called "Guydan" by the locals. This is a type of house in which the original two-bedroom apartment is given to two families to live in. The difference with the share house may only be that Zhao Yuxin's father owns the right to use and property rights to one of the two-bedroom apartments.

Perhaps, if you want to go a step further and find something that can make Zhao Yuxin happy. There is only another two-bedroom house, which is two square meters smaller than Zhaoyu's family.

Due to the difficult conditions, Zhao Yuxin just washed up in a hurry, and then lay down on his back on his single bed, which was made up of a toolbox that his father had picked up from the factory.

Tilting his head slightly, Zhao Yuxin looked at the double bed that was only one step away, and the head of the double bed, the portrait of Zhao Yuxin's mother. As if he had completed the most important ritual of his day, Zhao Yuxin greeted his father with evil words in his heart, and then fell asleep with a look of affection for his mother.

Because of exhaustion, Zhao Yuxin slept very deeply, as if he was a child. For Zhao Yuxin, there may be nothing in this world that can disturb his sleep. Except, the sound of his father's footsteps.

Sure enough, Zhao's father's footsteps, like an alarm clock with a set time, accurately appeared not far above Zhao Yuxin's head. Zhao Yuxin, who heard the footsteps, rolled over the spirit, got up from his "single bed" and stood on the ground.

What appeared in front of Zhao Yuxin's eyes was a thin palm. At this moment, the owner of this palm, that is, Zhao's father, was pulling his palm back from Zhao Yuxin's pillow in a daze.

Shaking his hand stupidly, Zhao's father said to Zhao Yuxin with a mouthful of wine: "Boy, clever enough, hey, hey, hey......"

is completely different from Zhao's father's deliberate way to find words, Zhao Yuxin seems to have ignored his father's meaning at all. I saw that Zhao Yuxin raised his left hand and gently pushed his father, so that his drunken father fell on the double bed. Subsequently, Zhao Yuxin walked out of the room without even turning his head back.

Zhao Yuxin has slept all day, and on the street at this moment, it is time for normal people to get off work. The pedestrians and vehicles on the street were still in a hurry from one location to another as they had in the morning. However, for Zhao Yuxin, this just means that his day's work is about to begin.

Just like a white-collar worker who goes to work in the morning, Zhao Yuxin also began to hurry up. It's just that the end of Zhao Yuxin's journey is an Internet café near his home.

Perhaps, Zhao Yuxin is the saddest game studio owner in this era. Or perhaps, he is just a microcosm of the countless dreaming teenagers in this era.

However, no matter what, Zhao Yuxin has to work hard in the same spirit. This is not only because Zhao Yuxin has such a home, he misses it, but he is unwilling to go back every day. What's more, today is a very important day for Zhao Yuxin.
