"Phone! Phone! Answer the phone quickly!" Yucheng kept flicking his tongue and shouting as he bumped into the endless crowd.
"Oh my god! What if it's already seven o'clock? How could someone I've never met wait for so long! Has he already left?" Yucheng looked at the circular alarm clock on his phone. The hour hand was already steady. pointed to seven o'clock. "Could it be that he regretted it on the way here?!" Like a dead fish, Yu Cheng slowly lowered his head and froze silently in the denser sea of people.
Running back to Exit A again, everything around me seemed blurry and colorful. After spinning around there for two more times, he had no choice but to stretch out a hand to support his head in despair, and admired the shape of his lips in boredom at the bright billboard like a mirror.
"Dear, are you a little shark who likes to cause trouble?" Just as Yucheng was practicing silent pantomime in front of the billboard with a frown on his face, a voice that sounded more confused than his current state of mind came from behind him.
"Oh! You are number 3068, right!" After enduring it for a long time, Zheng Yucheng finally couldn't bear it anymore. Regardless of his weird hairstyle that was blown by the wind and waves, he stood up with his hands on his hips and winked, opening and closing his mouth. Revealing a considerable number of teeth. Just looking at this posture, he almost hugged the person's arm, danced and roared.
"Yes, it's me." 3068 was obviously confused by Yucheng's unexpected enthusiasm. He looked at Yucheng's two front teeth with a few leeks hanging in confusion. When Yucheng screeched closer to him, he was so disgusted that he almost shrank his head into his neck.
"Anyway, I'm so happy to see you here. Oh! Well, you haven't had dinner yet. This is the delicious tenderloin pie I brought specially for you on the way here." Yu Cheng deliberately pretended He has a cheerful and lively personality, and this is an almost flawless acting skill that he has developed during the 7 years of competing with director Shin Jung-hwan.
"Oh! No, thank you. Because the car was stuck on the road for a long time, I just went to the bathroom in a hurry. I didn't want it to be completely dark outside when I came out."
"It's okay, I just got off the subway not long ago, haha. Can I check the status of the machine first?" Yucheng answered particularly loudly, as if if he didn't hurry up, his "little life" would be in danger. .
"Okay, but I think it should be enough to just look at the warranty and the date of manufacture. Besides, how can any player check it like you do?" Yucheng unpacked all the packages like a snatch, and saw that they were filled with sand in the strong wind. Those foam bags 3068 suddenly stared at him as majestically and calmly as a boulder.
"Of course you can! But if you get home and the machine can't be turned on, won't I have to trouble you to make another trip?!"
"Ouch! You should be careful first!" Dizzy! Zheng Yucheng is really a guy who has no control over humor and jokes. 3068 was so embarrassed that he almost put his fist in his mouth, turning him into a spectacle.
"This! It turns out to be the one Ming Yao said! Great! Even if you say that this is a new phone that you just got, I will believe it!"
Yucheng's face as thin as white paper and the tip of his nose as delicate as white porcelain were blown by the wind like two red apples. The moment he lowered his head, his beating face was reflected even on the snow-white machine shell.
"This is a new machine! I've mentioned it to you at least three times today!" 3068 glanced at him.
"But why are you selling the new machine?!" Yucheng drawled, looking up and down at the machine and him in confusion.
"Because when I went downstairs to get something, I was bumped into by my wife who got off work early. If I don't make the things disappear immediately, I will be treated like that. That's what my wife said at the time."
Looking at 3068's face that seemed to be filled with rage just a minute ago, it instantly melted into a pool of slightly rippling frost. Yu Cheng locked his lips tightly and put his cold hands into his coat pockets, carefully protecting his chest as if to soothe an uneasy heart.
"For those of you who are also big players in e-sports, you should have known for a long time that this is definitely a super hard-to-find machine! I didn't hesitate to save my face and asked my friends to give me more discounts to get this! If it weren't for my wife..." Yucheng's hands trembled in response to 3068's eye waves, slowly, as if a knife with a handle was single-mindedly cutting his heart into a diamond shape.
3068 glanced at him again, as if he had just been caught in the rain, and everything from his body to his voice was cold.
"My wife insists on making me choose between the game console and herself, how can I let it go?! But think about it, I can't really hand over my life just to play a few survival games! It’s just not worth it.”
"Yes, of course you have to live well! No, I mean there is nothing more important in this world than a stable family. After all, my wife is the eldest!" Yucheng said in a low voice, but his throat was gurgling. The sound cannot conceal the surging joy.
"Friend, don't worry, I will cherish her as my own child." Zheng Yucheng had absolutely no intention of being polite or greeting.
"Then this is for you, please confirm again." The transaction was successful. Looking at 3068's hesitant and even reluctant eyes, Yucheng shook off his hand that had been holding on to the corner of the machine and refused to let go.
"Then I'll go back first. Thank you so much for today. Be careful when you put your pants back on, don't break them." 3068 stood in the shadow of the leafy branches, lowering his head timidly. Long shadows and crumbs of hair covered his face, and heavy sighs came from his high, black and rough nose.
