Chapter 573: Chocolate
I know that feeling, and I also know Huang Li's current state of mind.
She was so well protected since she was a child that she became lawless when she grew up. However, when she learned that her parents were not omnipotent, she truly realized that she had been too childish before.
If it weren't for the things she had committed outside before, maybe they shouldn't have been so difficult, but it was because of these things that implicated her father.
I think that after going through this test, Huang Li should grow up.
But the price of this growth is too heavy.
We left the hospital first. When we parted, Huang Li was still a little reluctant to leave, but we had to separate temporarily.
On the way to the train station, Huang Li cried and told me that she used to hate her parents and even ran away from home, saying that she was a seriously problematic girl.
But now, she doesn't want to be separated at all, she is afraid that this departure will last forever.
I comforted her and said no, it was not a big deal. Even if all the crimes were true, it would not be a death sentence.
She also said that if she could exchange for her father's safety, she would accept it. She said that she would rather go to jail.
At that moment, I really realized that Huang Li had matured.
In the past, I might have asked Min Wenbin for mercy, but this time I said, I will never bow my head!
But sometimes I feel like a disaster, as if everyone who has anything to do with me has a bad ending.
This is true for Xiao Wei, so is Liang Jing, and even more so for An Lan
Now even Huang Li has not escaped, but there is only one source of all this, and that is Min Wenbin.
Based on this idea, I really hate myself. Why have so many people been implicated?
Why should these innocent people suffer?
Damn Min Wenbin, this is the first time in my life that I have great hatred for him!
I can't describe my hatred for Min Wenbin at this moment. If he stood in front of me now, I would use all my strength to kill him, even if I die together with him.
I don’t want the people around me to be hurt by him anymore, it’s evil capitalism.
When we got on the high-speed train in Chengdu, Huang Li and I were each filled with our own thoughts. We didn't have any communication. She kept looking at the fleeting scenery outside the window, and I kept staring at the back of the front seat in confusion.
I don’t know how long this state lasted until Huang Li spoke first: "Chen Feng, have you ever realized that time will really change everything in the past."
"How to say?"
"I don't know what to say. I just feel that my life has suddenly changed. In the past, my daily life was to sleep during the day and go to bars at night. At that time, when someone asked me what my dream was, I always laughed and said,
My dream is to have everyone treat me respectfully, and I want to be the most awesome female boss. But I was really happy at that time! Now I’m not happy anymore.”
"Because you jumped from a familiar circle into another unfamiliar environment, it's not surprising to feel like this."
"What about you? Do you feel this way?"
I suddenly fell silent, thought about it seriously and said, "Don't tell me that I really feel this way. The happiest time in my life was probably when I graduated from college and started a business with my classmates."
"Well, what happens next?" Huang Li seemed very interested.
I smiled faintly, but I didn't dare to recall it, but I still said to her: "Although there was no money at that time, it was boring and hard, but it was the best time in my life. At least, I did it for myself every day.
In life, I have my dreams, and I am also working hard to pursue my dreams. I can reward myself by going out to restaurants with my classmates on weekends, or go to the surrounding areas to relax. In short, at that time, I
, you can really feel life."
"Then what happened? How did it change?"
I smiled bitterly and said: "Qian, the further I go, the more I realize that money can really dominate a person's everything. Now I am more miserable than ever."
Huang Li sighed: "I think you are right. Although I have never worried about money, there will still be a lot of inexplicable pain accompanying it. Maybe, if I am really poor, I won't have so much pain."
I exhaled heavily and said, "You have never experienced what it feels like to be poor. Then you won't think so."
"Then I will experience it this time. Maybe this is an opportunity God has given me to change my past. After I go to Chengdu with you, I hope you will not arrange everything for me. I want to survive in Chengdu on my own.
May I?"
I looked at her, remained silent for a few seconds, and then nodded.
Huang Li stopped talking. She turned back and looked out the car window. That look and expression made people feel distressed.
Once she was a princess and Sister Li who was feared by everyone, but now she is a refugee and no one cares about her anymore.
But I care, I remember how good she was, every time when I was in the most danger, she always stood up to help me.
At this time, even if no one cares about her, I will protect her.
I took out two chocolates from my bag, touched her arm with my hand, and said, "Eat a piece of candy, it will make you feel better."
She turned to look at the chocolate in my hand, was stunned for a moment and said, "Why do you have such a thing as chocolate on your body?"
"I just bought it when I was buying cigarettes outside the station."
"Do you like chocolate?"
"How should I put it? I loved eating it when I was a child. At that time, I forgot whose relatives came back from the city and brought some candies. It was the first time in my life that I ate chocolate, and I fell in love with this kind of food. But at that time
Our family can't afford it, chocolate is too expensive, and just one piece of chocolate is enough to buy two kilograms of rice."
"is it so serious?"
"Really, at that time, rice in rural areas only cost a few cents a pound, so I really couldn't afford it."
Huang Li sighed, took the chocolate from my hand, and opened the package while eating, and said: "You would have better get to know me then. I have plenty at home, so you can eat as much as you like."
I laughed and said, "Actually, it's not bad. After I entered junior high school, I started making money on my own."
"What do you do to make money?"
"My academic performance has been good since I was a child. At that time, I could earn one dollar by helping others with their homework. I would also go to the street to pick up bottles in exchange for money. Every time I would use it to buy chocolates. I told you not to feel disgusted. Others would eat them.
You bite the chocolate, but I lick it because I can't bear to eat it. I wrap the unfinished chocolate with toilet paper and save it for later."
"That's really sad for you, right?"
"I don't feel sad. I think it's pretty good now that I think about it. At least I have always had a goal. Chocolate when I was a kid, and starting a business after graduation. But now, I'm confused."
"It will get better, it will definitely get better." Huang Li patted my shoulder and comforted me in turn.
I smiled and said, "Do you still remember how we met?"
"Remember, I asked you to help me design a marketing program."
"I was already rich when I designed the program for you. I could have refused to accept your order at that time."
