NOVEL NEXT Chapter 72
Chapter 72: For The 1 Time In My Life, I Seriously Reflect On Myself
Chen Yu returned home.
After taking a shower, I went back to my bedroom.
He was sitting by the head of the bed, his phone in hand, waiting for his 37-year-old to contact him.
Although he figured it out, he doesn’t plan to use the method of cheating Qin Lili’s feelings to keep his title as the province’s top liberal arts scholar and his chance to go to university.
But if the 37-year-old himself can get the test papers and answers for the retake this time, he still doesn’t mind repeating tricks and cheating again.
After all, this is related to his reputation and future.
In his heart, he also wanted to go to college.
Time passed, and the 37-year-old himself never contacted him again. He sat on the head of the bed, half-squinted looking at the moon outside the window.
The moon outside the window is very full tonight.
He stared blankly. At this moment, his usual laughter expression faded, and he seemed to be more mature.
It was very quiet all around, and I could hear the low sound of insects coming from the yard.
His heart also became very quiet unconsciously.
He began to think about his future, what his 37-year-old self had said to him before.
He remembered himself at the age of 37. When he contacted him for the first time, he said that he would die of lung cancer in the future. He was 37 years old, but he had nothing, a house, a car, money, a wife, children… all of them.
Not right either!
The 37-year-old himself seems to have said that at that time he owned a Tiggo 7.
But that’s about it.
Such a future, at the age of 17, he naturally does not want.
later……
After a time and space change, the 37-year-old self appeared directly on the bed of a beautiful young woman, but the beautiful young woman was someone else’s wife, and in that time and space, the 37-year-old self’s true identity was a person at the bottom of the society. Takeaways who come in the wind and go in the rain.
Later, after another time and space change, the 37-year-old self appeared directly in prison. The reason was that the future me, after graduating from university, took the civil servant exam, and then took bribes and raised a lover…
later?
The 37-year-old self has become a charter man with a carefree life, and his life seems to be very comfortable? In that time and space, the 37-year-old self seemed to have a wife named Jiang Xiu, and the 37-year-old self seemed to like that woman very much.
now what?
What happened to the 37-year-old self?
When he was on a video call with his 37-year-old self tonight, he didn’t seem to mention the topic.
However, after synthesizing the previous time and space changes, the 37-year-old himself has experienced several times and spaces and his situation. At the age of 17, he can still roughly draw a conclusion: it seems that no matter how the time and space change, my future is not very good. it is good.
The best time was just after graduating from college, returning to Huizhou Prefecture, accepting a blind date arranged by the family, marrying the woman named Jiang Xiu, and becoming a chartered man like a salted fish.
Thinking of this in his mind, the 17-year-old’s heart is very complicated, with mixed flavors.
Because he suddenly thought of an old saying: character determines fate.
So, he couldn’t help thinking: Is there really something wrong with my character? So so many time and space changes, most of my future is not good?
Why?
Why?
He asked himself again and again in his heart.
This is the first time in his 17-year life that he has examined himself so seriously and questioned himself.
He’s not really heartless, and he certainly hopes for a bright future.
It’s just that for so many years, even if he studies hard, getting up before dawn to memorize English words has no effect, so he gave up studying hard.
Although it is said that the 37-year-old self said about taking bribes, raising a lover, etc., he did not do it now, and those should only be a possibility in future time and space.
but……
At the age of 17, he knew in his heart that most of those futures were derived from his current character.
He leaned on the head of the bed and pondered for a long time. The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, but he gradually got some ideas. ——My personality must still be changed, but I can’t continue to change it in the direction of scum, because in the past two or three months, the situation after the changes in time and space that the 37-year-old has experienced has been very telling.
If I continue to change in the direction of scum, there is a high probability that my future will not be good.
In addition to personality, I also have to think about learning something seriously.
In this life, I can’t always cheat at every stage of my life like this college entrance examination.
If one day, I can no longer contact my 37-year-old self, what can I do for my foundation? Do you really want to be a charter man who eats and waits to die?
Based on my learning background, even if I enter a famous university and study computer for a few years, it is estimated that I will not be able to become a computer master.
But what is there for me to learn?
…
Time is still passing little by little.
17-year-old Chen Yu thought about one question after another, but more new questions popped up in his heart.
He realized that it is easy to indulge himself, but if he really wants to make progress and make himself really good, it is so difficult.
However, he still wanted to try.
It was not until about 12 o’clock in the middle of the night that the mobile phone he had been holding in his hand finally rang.
It was a video call request from my 37-year-old self.
His thoughts were interrupted, his expression did not change much, his eyes calmly glanced at the mobile phone, it seemed that in just a few hours tonight, he had matured a lot.
The mood has also stabilized a lot.
He calmly connected to the video call.
In the video, the 37-year-old’s blushing face appeared.
“Have you been drinking?” he asked.
Middle-aged Chen Yu grinned, “Yeah! I drank some.”
“Have you got the test papers and answers for the retakes?” he asked again.
Middle-aged Chen Yu chuckled, “It’s really not easy to get these things for you!”
He looked at the blushing face of his future self and nodded slightly, “Thank you for your hard work! Send it to me! I will hurry up and try to memorize it all.”
Middle-aged Chen Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, “Aren’t you curious how I got it?”
In his memory, when he was 17 years old, he was very curious.
However……
The teenager Chen Yu, whose mentality has changed, shook his head slightly, “I don’t have much time to prepare, so save time and give me the test papers and answers! I will prepare early so that I can pass this retest smoothly. ”
Middle-aged Chen Yu was a little surprised, “Oh? So, you didn’t get Qin Lili?”
The young Chen Yu laughed at himself, “I haven’t done it yet! Stop talking nonsense, and send me the test paper and answers.”
After he finished speaking, he hesitated for two seconds, and then said: “By the way, you have experienced more things than me, and your thinking is more mature than me. When I look back, you can help me think about the next thing. During my few years in college, I can learn something. What? I’m afraid I won’t be able to learn the professional knowledge of the university, but I don’t want to be ignorant all the time. Can you help me think about it?”
in the video.
Even though middle-aged Chen Yu was already quite drunk, the 37-year-old was still stunned when he heard the 17-year-old himself make such a request.
As if it was the first time I knew my 17-year-old self, I looked straight at my 17-year-old self.
“You… are you serious?”
He couldn’t believe his 17-year-old self wanted to learn something.
For a while, his drunkenness receded a bit.
It was also at this time that he finally noticed the 17-year-old self on the video side, and his expression was much calmer, just like when he was 22 years old after losing his parents and grandmother.
17-year-old Chen Yu nodded, his expression still calm, “Reading, I admit that I really can’t do it, but isn’t it the old saying, ‘I am born with talent,’ and I don’t believe that I can’t learn anything well.”
The middle-aged Chen Yu looked at him for a while, before he smiled with relief, “Okay, since you have such a heart, I will help you with a good reference. I will send you the re-examination papers and answers first. You have memorized it as soon as possible! This is a top priority! Let’s talk about everything else later.”
Teenager Chen Yu: “Okay.”
