Everyone looked at him one after another, but no one could react for a long time.
"Why?"
Casey asked confused.
In her opinion, Adam is a very good child in all aspects.
In terms of ability, IQ, and of course even courtesy and etiquette, he is very good.
She didn't know what was bad about him that could make Li Zichen so unhappy.
Adam was also looking directly at Li Zichen at this time. Even though the person he was facing was not an ordinary person but Li Zichen, he didn't show any trace of nervousness or fear.
The red little face was full of anger.
It was as if Fei wanted to find out why.
Otherwise, he would definitely not be convinced.
"What is there about me that makes you dissatisfied, uncle?"
He is very confident. This confidence is a little too much, that is, he is arrogant.
Li Zichen saw through all Adam's faults at a glance.
Although he hid it very well so that no one could see it at all.
But he was still noticed.
"Adam, you are indeed very outstanding among this group of children. However, you are too proud. Being too proud is arrogant. I don't need such a person."
His expression was cold, and he directly exposed his problem. There was no reason why he couldn't bear to do it just because he was a child.
On the contrary, precisely because he is still a child, he speaks more directly.
He hoped that Adam could remember this day forever and change.
"Moreover, your ambition is so great that it makes you very selfish."
He was born in the Li family since he was a child. In addition to being born with a life of splendor and wealth, he also studied harder and harder.
Just to be worthy of becoming Li Jinze's son.
So he suffered a lot.
He has been in the business world since he was a child and has made a name for himself in it.
It also left a legend behind.
until now.
Therefore, how could an elite like him, who has lived in the business world since childhood, fail to see Adam's thoughts?
No matter who is thinking, he can see through it at a glance.
It just depends on whether he is willing to see it and whether he is willing to speak out.
Besides, Adam is a child, although he is very smart, knows how to hide his edge, is low-key and polite.
But after all, he is just a child and cannot hide it.
Facing elites like Li Zichen, he was like an ant.
"Why do you say I'm selfish? I haven't done anything. Yes, I admit that I have some ambitions and some pride. But I think I can do it. I have confidence, so I can have such ambitions and pride. I have such abilities.
What did i do wrong?"
Adam directly confronted Li Zichen.
However, Li Zichen struck him without hesitation, his index finger gently moving from side to side.
"No, you don't have such ability."
"Based on your current ability, compared with me, Gu Zichen, and Bao'er back then, you are not even one-tenth. You are just the leader in a welfare home with a relatively small number of people.
You become arrogant and feel that you are the most capable."
"Adam, you live in a dry well. When you look up, you will always see only a small piece of sky. But what you never know is how big the sky is outside. Your ability is really not as big as that of others.
Outstanding."
What he said has been very direct. Search and read e-books sodutxt
The reason why Adam can feel that he is strong and capable is because he has been living in an orphanage.
Living here, the only people he can compare to are the dozen or so children around him.
This is his scope, this is the whole world he sees.
He has never seen the outside world, so he will never know.
He can compare with all the children in this small orphanage, but it is very likely that he will not compare with children in other orphanages, or even children in the outside world.
He can't compare to those.
Adam is the real frog in the well.
He thinks he has seen the whole world, and he thinks he is the smartest child in the world.
So I dusted everything off and disdained other families.
Not even playing with other kids around me.
When Adam heard these words, he couldn't even refute a word.
He opened his mouth, and finally closed it slowly.
After hesitating several times, he finally spoke.
"No, that's not the case. I am the smartest one, that's what everyone says."
Li Zichen approached step by step, and the child in front of him retreated step by step.
"No, actually you know this very well, it's just that you don't want to admit it. You know that you are the best in this orphanage, so you don't want to leave here."
"So you rejected the families who came to adopt you again and again, just because you want to stay here and become someone who is admired and jealous. Because only here can you be the best, am I right?"
These words completely shattered the last illusion in Adam's heart that he was unwilling to admit.
Adam fell to the ground and couldn't recover for a long time.
Although he doesn't want to admit it.
But I have to say that everything Li Zichen said is right.
He has indeed known for a long time, he has known for a long time that he is the best and the best only here.
So he rejected other families again and again.
He was worried and full of anxiety about the future.
He was very afraid that he would follow other families and start a new life in a strange environment.
Contact a new group and discover that he is not actually the smartest one.
No one will admire him anymore, and no one will be jealous of him.
No one will worship him anymore.
That's why he stayed in the orphanage again and again, and even used lies and promises to coax Eve to stay with him, not to be adopted or leave with other families.
These are all selfish actions on his part.
He was the one who said he wouldn't leave at first, but now when he saw that the arriving family was the Li family, he was the first to renege on his agreement and clamored to leave.
Everything Li Zichen said was true.
It's just that he doesn't want to admit it.
"No, that's not the case..."
He couldn't explain a word, so he could only sit on the ground and keep shaking his head.
Casey also found it unbelievable.
What she couldn't believe was that a seemingly good child had so many problems.
Li Zichen seemed to have made up his mind, "So, Adam, just give up. I will never adopt you as my child, and I will never do this."
After saying this, he did not forget to extend an olive branch to Eve again.
"Eve, as for your future, you should decide for yourself instead of listening to others. The opportunity I gave you will not be taken back. You should think about it carefully."
Adam chuckled and shook Eve's hand tightly.
"Humph, just give up! Eve promised me that as long as I don't leave, she won't leave. She will always be with me, and she will always be with me in this orphanage!"
