I, who advocate giving up, feel like a disqualified person

"It's okay, they don't know you anyway... Well, I mean, it's a waste of time..."

Actually, I just feel like there's nothing to explain.

"I always feel that this is a bit excessive..."

"They're not as petty as you think... They definitely won't dwell on these things. Xiaoye, you're still thinking too much."

"Is that so..." Xiaoye thought for a moment, "Well, let's do this."

................

"hey-hey..."

Xiaoye, who was sitting facing me, looked at me and smiled twice with his hands covering his mouth.

"Huh? What's wrong..." I said and looked behind me.

"Nothing, just remembering how long ago it was that I had dinner with Sheji."

"Ah... now that you mention it..."

It seems to be true... There's nothing we can do about it, after all, we spend more time in school... Vacation is almost here... I have to visit relatives and friends, so I guess we'll have even less time to meet them.

"Well, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's save more time to go sightseeing."

Xiaoye’s words brought my thoughts back to reality.

"Ah... OK..."

The food in the cafeteria...even with the cultural exhibition, the quality hasn't improved much...Well, at least it's better than what the students make.

"Oh... this tastes much better than the one at our school..."

Xiaoye said this.

"Hey? Xiaoye, are you still in school?"

I felt very strange after hearing this.

"Huh?... Ah, I mean... I mean, that, it tastes better than the school I went to in middle school..."

She seemed worried about something when she answered.

Is it necessary to be so nervous about answering the question... Is it because it involves food?

..............

"It's only almost one o'clock..." I said to myself after checking the time. "Well, before we go to the theater, let's look around."

"Well, okay." Xiaoye said and followed me out of the cafeteria.

Actually...this cultural exhibition is not as interesting as I thought. Well, after all, time is limited, and the reason most people are excited is because of the two days of free time. I think what is attractive enough is the night when Christmas comes.

In short, if we didn’t have this or that kind of enthusiasm, I’m afraid everyone would choose to stay in their warm bed to spend the winter.

.................

"Oh, what about magic..." Xiaoye looked at a poster.

"Ah...magic..." I said in a disinterested tone.

"What's wrong? Sheji, don't you like magic?"

Xiaoye turned around and asked me.

"Ah... well, how should I put it... I don't care whether I like it or not... I'm just worried about their performance..."

Are you really not going to get stage fright or something?

"How can you think like that? Others have worked hard to prepare this. We should support them."

"Uh..." Looking at Xiaoye's kind eyes, I began a one-second confession.

I'm sorry for doubting you. To make amends, I will personally witness your so-called efforts... Is that all right?

So we sat in the performance room where there were not many people.

....................

"It's very exciting..." Xiaoye seemed to be savoring the magic show just now.

"Uh...yeah..."

They're all basic magic tricks... and I've searched for the decryption process before, so... it's still pretty boring to me. Luckily, there aren't any mistakes...

"Well, come with me to the drama club now, and I'll show you the plays I've created under your guidance."

"Yeah, okay." Xiaoye said and quickly followed.

..............

"Yo, here we come."

For some reason, Senior Su, who was standing at the door of the drama club, saw me at a glance and greeted me.

"Ah...that's right," I said and began to introduce Xiaoye, "This is Yan Xiaoye, my...cousin."

After hesitating for a while, I decided that this relationship is better.

"Hey? Hello, I'm Sheji's cousin. Thank you for taking care of my brother."

Fortunately, Xiaoye reacted quickly and adjusted his character settings quickly... Well done.

"My dear cousin of Sheji... Welcome. How do you feel about visiting us?"

Senior Su asked Xiaoye with a smile.

"Ah... it's great. Everyone's working so hard, and it feels so lively. I almost forgot it's winter."

Xiaoye replied.

"Haha, well said." Senior Su clapped his hands in praise and said to me, "Then, Sheji, go backstage. Everyone is waiting for you."

Then he said to Xiaoye: "Then you can go to the audience and wait for Sheji for a while. Your brother will be here soon."

"Oh, okay." She glanced at me and said, "Be sure to come find me later, brother."

Oh, this "brother" is so cute~

"Well, I will definitely come to find you..."

.....................

My heart couldn't help but beat faster.

As expected, I still get nervous when people are watching me...

"It's up to you, Sheji."

Senior Lu Yunzi patted my shoulder and walked out.

"Huh..." He let out a breath and looked at the people who were about to go on stage.

"Actually, there's no need to be nervous... I think... you've all performed in front of various audiences before, and this time the audience may not be as discerning as before.

Furthermore, you are performing for yourself because you have rehearsed and worked hard for so long. No matter how the audience reacts, it is enough for you to show your best side.

Finally... let us forget all distractions when entering the stage and immerse ourselves in the best state, the state of integrating into the role... In short, don't be too serious to the point of being nervous, and don't be too relaxed to the point of making mistakes.

That's it, I'll be watching you from the audience and wish you success."

He stretched out his hand...it's international custom...

"Ha, to be honest... When I first heard that a first-year guy was going to replace President Sun, I was a little unconvinced, until you started your speech."

"Yeah... I don't even have your talent for impromptu speech."

"I'm not like that. When I heard Sheji say those things, I was very disdainful. I thought everyone could talk big, but I was really impressed when he showed off his acting skills with that girl."

"Yeah, I wanted to give this role to you, Sheji, but I was a little selfish, haha, and Sheji didn't have this idea..."

"Yes, always. Even though you are our junior, I always feel that we seniors still have a lot to learn from you..."

"It would be a shame if you didn't join our drama club..."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Didn't you see that Sheji has been stretching his hands for a long time?"

"Ah..." I suddenly came to my senses... What you just said was so gentle that I was a little caught off guard...

"Snapped!"

My outstretched hand was hit hard by someone.

Even though it hurts a bit...it seems pretty cool, doesn't it?

Well, let's celebrate in advance with a high five!

...................

"Here~" Xiaoye waved at me, then looked at the audience around him with a slightly apologetic look.

"Ah, here I come..." I quickened my pace and sat in the empty seat next to Xiaoye.

"Have you said everything you wanted to say?" Xiaoye asked me, then looked at the stage where no one had yet come on.

"Yeah... now they will definitely be able to perform beyond their normal abilities."

I rubbed my nose as I spoke...it didn't get any longer, which meant I wasn't lying...hmm.

"Oh...this kind of confidence...I don't know how to evaluate it..."

When did Xiaoye become able to say things with hidden meanings? Is this still the Xiaoye I know?

"Haha..." I always felt that my laughter was a little awkward. "Anyway, let's just wait and see."

"Yeah, okay..." Then he said something that made me feel a little creepy, "Brother..."

Did I just choose the wrong option? Can I reload the game and start over? Well...that's impossible...

After all, my life is a process of growth step by step, not a love game that may be full of loopholes.

..............

【True Title】

A life that advocates giving up cannot be a love game

[Easter eggs?]

Ah... well, I'm the author. The Easter eggs are gone this time. I ate them. Sorry... I still don't feel like there's anything to be sorry about...

I seem to have delayed updating for... a few days, and everyone has also proved their emotions with actual actions... hmm.

Actually, I caught a cold because of the air conditioner... It wasn't when I was sleeping, but when I was learning to paint. I happened to sit next to the air conditioner, and those bastards set the temperature to 17 degrees... I sat there painting for half a day. I wanted to turn the temperature up a little bit, but I don't know if those bastards hid the remote control on purpose. The teacher was asking where the remote control was, and then I caught a cold... I had a terrible headache, and I couldn't even "sit up in shock from my dying illness". I almost "would have to shout in a rotten voice: I want to update even if I was buried in a coffin."

Forcing myself wasn't a good idea... so I lay in bed, enduring the headache... and then, miraculously, in this half-asleep, half-awake state, I had a conversation with Runzhi, a student in Changsha. I vaguely remember him saying something like, "My head is intelligent," and "I'm unconventional."

What a great conversation... I actually had a conversation with a great man while having a fever... It's incredible. I wonder if I will have any conversation with Brother Xun when I have a fever again.

I have also traveled abroad recently... places like Nepal, King's Avenue, Flower Village, and Lijiang Tower, all had nice scenery.

Anyway...I'm not going to be fully present this month...Everyone, get ready to welcome the author who updates every three days. That's all.

The importance of thinking style

Isn’t there a saying like that?

"There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people"

In fact, this sentence can not only be used to evaluate literary works, but also applies to daily trivial matters.

In general, it tells us that different people have different views on something.

But... should everyone's opinions be tolerated? Can we really accept those opinions that completely contradict the character's basic principles?

In other words, should we really accept a view that goes against common sense?

Probably unacceptable...

So, is it acceptable to call Xiaoye my cousin?

Thinking of this, I glanced at Xiaoye beside me.
