C8 (1/2)
What was he supposed to do, find out who did it, or pretend nothing had happened? Do you want to continue being a docile pug, or do you want to overcome the fear in your heart and go back to the comfort of the past?
The figure of that person seemed to appear in front of him …
”...”
I was six years old.
”Shu Jing, do you feel that you're different from others?” he asked at the age of six.
”Hmm, that's right. The kids beside me who are older than me don't seem to understand what I'm talking about. My parents are the same. They're so stupid. Those relatives are also very dumb …” That was the topic of conversation between the two of them shortly after I met him.
”Right, because we were born different from others, our brains are smarter than theirs, there are two types of people in this world, one is ordinary people, like your parents and other friends, the other is not ordinary people, like you and me, our minds are more active than theirs, our minds are more meticulous than theirs, our eyes are more unique than theirs.” he said, looking me in the eye.
At the age of six, I was much more mature than my peers, but I realized that I didn't really understand what he was saying.
He seems to be smarter and more mature than me.
”Shu Jing, those ordinary people are merely historical and social supporters. People like us are the ones to push things forward. The reason why humans have been able to develop to this day is because of us pushing them and the support of ordinary people. So, we have a heavy responsibility, we should do something more meaningful, do you understand? If you understand, then go home and read. Don't play with those idiots in the mud. ”
After hearing his explanation, I became even more at a loss. The thin and weak child in front of me actually had a temperament that even adults don't have. He understood the reason why most people don't understand him and grasped the knowledge that most people don't have …
”...”
The conversation from when I was six years old suddenly came to mind. The influence that that person had on me was unforgettable.
After three years of suffering, I still remember what he said.
An extraordinary person should do an extraordinary thing.
People like him and I have a heavy responsibility to do more meaningful things.
Of course, the most meaningful thing was not to be a submissive and obedient pug.
I want it, to be a peace of mind!
When he finished the last cigarette in the pack, his figure seemed to be visible in the smoke.
That person had given me a profound influence.
With my responsibilities, I needed to do something more meaningful.
After dialing the number that Li Fengyun left for him, Li Fengyun immediately picked up the phone, ”Shuqing, I knew you would call.”
”Boss, where are you? I've thought it through and returned to being myself, to being the same person I was all those years ago.”
”Mmm, that arrogant fellow is the number three in my memories. ”Now, come out of the dorm, I'll pick you up.”
After hanging up, I packed my stuff and walked out of the dormitory.
Yes, Li Fengyun had changed. He used to be a simple-minded guy, but now he gave me an aggressive feeling, and he knew very well that I was staying in the dorm.
Either there was someone else guiding him from behind, or he had changed too much in the past three years and improved greatly.
After waiting for a few minutes under the dormitory building, a broken electric car drove by. It was none other than the messy Li Fengyun.
”Get in.” Li Fengyun stopped and said with an unquestionable tone.
I didn't say anything and got in the car. Li Fengyun started the car and drove along this road.
He didn't say anything, and neither did I. The two of them were silent as they followed Li Fengyun's route.
I carefully observed the route and found that Li Fengyun seemed to be deliberately circling around. There were a few times when he passed by, he obviously had a closer route, but he deliberately took a detour.
I looked back warily and saw an unlicensed pickup truck following a short distance behind us.
Someone was following him.
Li Fengyun was very calm. He rode the electric bike in slow circles, and after passing by a few small paths, the pickup truck couldn't keep up with him. Instead, a similar electric bike appeared behind him, neither too close nor too close to him.
”Stop looking, they can't keep up with me.” Li Fengyun calmly said without turning around.
After a series of twists and turns, Li Fengyun brought me to the city's largest shanty district. The people following us were long gone, and the shanty buildings in the shanty district were concentrated, lacking rational planning, and were jagged and criss-crossed.
The shantytown was huge, a small area with thousands of people. Li Fengyun was like a fish in water here as he drove me around, finally stopping in front of a simple house.
He parked the car and opened the door to show me in.
The room was small, about twenty square feet, and compared to the dirty and disorderly environment outside, it was a bit of a surprise to see how spotless it looked.
