I copied my daughter in the parallel world

After eating part of the meal, the rest of the time went into the process of drinking wine very smoothly. When he took the first sip of wine, he could clearly feel that Ouyang Tang's eyes became much brighter. Maybe he had been familiar with it before. I have expectations for the wine, but it is within the standard. After all, from what I know, Gu Cheng has never made wine for the first time before. Even if it may reach the qualified standard line, it should not be How high will it go?

But after he really tasted it, he found that it was exactly what he expected, which made him feel a little frustrated. It turned out that the other party was not only so talented in literature, but he didn't expect that he could easily delve into a skill. to achieve success.

I don’t know if it was to vent, or because no one told me about the pain I suffered during this period. Compared to Gu Cheng, Ouyang Tang drank with great ferocity, drinking one cup after another without giving him any time to breathe. After several rounds, the bottle of wine was already half full, and at the same time, the other party may have been hit by the cold air. Because of this, the stamina slowly came back, and his eyes had become slightly red.

You must know that Ouyang Tang was still under great pressure during this period. On the one hand, external comments were relatively negative for him, and various critics were negative. They all stood up and waved flags and shouted, as if witnessing the fall of a generation of poets was like a carnival.

On the other hand, the transformation of his new works was obviously not so recognized by others, which made him extremely doubtful about his talent and talent. He even felt that as the other party said, he was exhausted.

As for these pressures that have been accumulated in daily life, there are not many ways to talk and vent, and I don’t want to express them to make my girlfriend worry and worry. I have less contact with Gu Cheng on weekdays, so I almost suppress all these emotions. In his heart, his whole mood was extremely depressed.

It's rare to have a relatively private space, and to have a friend who can understand you sitting next to you, so after suppressing this emotion for a long time, it finally found a gap to burst out, and everyone swarmed in in an instant.

"Cheng Zi, do you know? Sometimes I will be particularly jealous of you. Why do you seem to be able to succeed easily no matter what you do? Although everyone recognizes me, they seem to think that I should be like this. As long as I have If I fail to meet the expected standards at all, I will receive overwhelming criticism. It seems that the path I have been taking has always been fearful that if I am not careful, I will fall to the bottom."

When the wine was very strong, Ouyang Tang, probably because he was a little drunk, spoke out his feelings that he usually didn't know how to express, and held Gu Cheng's hand and couldn't stop talking. At this moment, Gu Cheng also acted as a good listener, patting the other party's shoulders soothingly and trying to comfort him as much as possible.

"Don't say that. I have always thought that you are also very good, and I also admire your talent in literature. I have also tried to write poetry, but I found that my talent in this area cannot catch up with yours. Originally, I also wanted to I am developing in this field, but it is because of your existence that I gave up the idea of ​​getting involved in this field. People will always encounter various ups and downs in their lives, and no one’s life and destiny can be smooth sailing. , you may only be slightly hindered for the time being, but I think that after you calm down and settle down, everyone will be shocked. I have always been convinced of this. "

Normally Gu Cheng would not say these words easily, but today it may be because he drank some wine, so he didn't hold back as much as usual and really poured out his true thoughts. come out. Before meeting Ouyang Tang, he never had much preference for poetry collections, but when he met Ouyang Tang for the first time, he did buy this work and read it carefully, and he could feel the other person between the lines. His talent is almost overflowing, which actually makes him very envious.

My family knows my own affairs. In fact, when it comes to literary talent, I may be completely outmatched by Ouyang Tang. The reason why I can achieve better development is because I have relatively large resources that can be accessed at any time. , if you really let yourself write a work that is entirely your own, you may be treated worse than the other person.

It is precisely because of this that when he faced Ouyang Tang, he felt vaguely inferior. After all, the other party's achievements and status were completely dependent on him, unlike his own situation now. In some aspects It can also be regarded as fraud.

"You don't know that I haven't contacted my master for a long time. I feel very sorry for him. It is obvious that my master has put too many expectations on me and even regards me as his successor, but I have developed... It's not as good as what the other party expected. I don't even dare to contact my previous friends at all, because I know very well that the reason why they associate with me is because they see my scenery and achievements. Once I am in danger of falling, , most people are thinking about how to make the last profit from me, and no one will really consider me."

Maybe it's just as the other person said, when a person is at his peak, he seems to be surrounded by all kinds of sweet words and flattery, as if he found that there are no bad people in the world for a moment, and everyone will be in front of you. Try to show your good side.

But when you really slowly hit the bottom, you will find that these people will change their faces in an instant, and they will step on you much harder than those who have never met you. This is because everyone is familiar with everything about you. , so he will be merciless when he seizes your pain points, and there is no such thing as the harmonious friendship that we had when we got along.

Literati look down on each other, this sentence is clearly reflected in the entire circle. Maybe once I hit rock bottom, my huge popularity alone will shape and give people more benefits. Some people want to replace me, and some people want to divert my loyal fan base.

Everyone seems to have their own selfish desires, and generally no one cares about the meager friendship they had before.

It can be seen that these words may have been held in Ouyang Tang's heart for a long time, and there has never been a way to talk, so he was nagging like this when facing Gu Cheng, and at the same time, his emotions were rarely out of control. Looking at his friend Gu Cheng who was in such a state of despair, he felt extremely uncomfortable. He wanted to cheer him up, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only helplessly pat his shoulder and at the same time pick up the glass of wine and try to numb him. nerves, so that the other party can feel more at ease.
