Chapter 71 (2/2)
The two people left the exam and returned to the square together.
Han said in a deep voice, “I’m not forced to come here. In fact, if you really don’t like to come here, why not just directly eliminate yourself right away?”
Lan Feng sighed and said, “If I’m eliminated, then they will say again that I brought disgrace to the Blue family.”
“Who?”
“Mom and dad.”
“Uh, then never mind. It’s normal for parents to have some expectations for their kids, who doesn’t want their children to succeed.”
“I don’t like it.”
“Then you have to make it clear to your parents that you don’t want to be a soldier, and then they might not force you anymore.”
“Two months ago, I said I wanted to be a painter, they didn’t agree. Last month I said I wanted to be a race car driver and they didn’t agree as well. This month, I think I could be a doctor that helped others, they still do not agree. If you encounter such parents, you will also feel helpless right?” Lan Feng said very seriously.
Han gave Lan Feng the white eye, “If I’m one of your parents, I won’t agree too.”
“Why not? You just supported me to make it clear to my parents.” Lan Feng asked, puzzled.
“Because the speed of your goal changing, isn’t it a bit too fast? A while ago you want to become a painter, and a little bit later, you want to be a racer, and then you turn your head and say you want to be a doctor. That’s not called a goal, those are delusions.”
“But those are decisions I made after careful consideration, it’s not a delusion. Didn’t you ever think about what you wanted to be?”
“Yep, I want to be a soldier.” Han replied without hesitation.
“And then?”
“Be a soldier.”
“And then?”
“Be a soldier.”
“How about when you are old?”
“Be a soldier.”
“What about when you are old enough that you can’t be a soldier?”
“Then I will go rent a shop and sell meat buns.”
“Meat buns? What are those?”
“It’s a type of food. You get a fresh-baked pancake around a chunk of hot braised belly pork, plus green pepper and cumin. It’s very delicious.”
Lan Fen scratched his chin and thought for a bit, “It’s sounds pretty good. When I have time I want to try that.”
“Haha, sure, if there’s an opportunity I will make it for you.”
“Ah, yes, what was your dream when you were a child?”
“Open a shop and sell meat buns.”
“Then isn’t that the same as your dream when you are old?”
“Ya, is that very strange?”
“Of course! Do you only have two dreams in your life? One is to be a soldier, and otherwise you want to sell meat buns?”
“Yep, you are right. I like both of those jobs.”
“You are the most dreamless man I’ve seen.” Lan Feng stared at Han and said, emphasizing every word.
Han also stared at Lan Feng, and said word by word, “You are also the most deluded man I’ve seen.”
Somehow, Han and Lan Feng actually started more conversations, and the two both came to the square for the last test.
Han looked up and looked around. Suddenly, he saw a very familiar figure in the square, a black leather cloth that tightly wrapped her whole body, yet it was still not enough to conceal her beautiful body. Golden hair shining like the bright sun, a perfect little face, flawless snow white skin, just like a fine porcelain doll giving people a very unreal feeling.
Wasn’t that Ye Weiwei?
When transferred to the last stage of the pressure exam, Lan Feng got teleported to some other corner of the square. Han thought for a moment, and walked straight to the side of Ye Weiwei. Ye Weiwei noticed Han too, and was somewhat surprised.
“What a coincidence, we meet again.” Han’s face showed that harmless smile again, and he whispered.
