112. Chapter 112 Life has never been a one-way street without ifs
No matter which dynasty or generation, beautiful women are a scarce resource.
Of course, in this Internet age where even a few farts at night may result in being tweeted by your sleeping partner. People have already been bombarded with all kinds of photos of pure beauties, otakus, and goddesses on the Internet, and their aesthetic fatigue has been greatly reduced.
Aesthetics are also changing in an increasingly weird direction in the crazy nationwide P-picture craze.
For example, Mars eyes and awl face.
The 45-degree angle with a pouty mouth and bulging cheeks is no longer enough.
But the more this happens, the more people crave for that kind of unadorned pure natural beauty. Just like the "Milk Tea" and "Xi Tzu" that are popular on the Internet, perhaps at first sight they are not as good as those with deep career lines, hot and long legs.
The so-called "home goddess" is amazing, but when you taste it carefully, it is like a cup of fresh green tea, sweet and mellow, with a long aftertaste.
This is the beauty of reality.
There is no doubt that Minnie is such a "real" beauty, especially her soft and rosy face at this moment without makeup, which looks even more fresh and refined against the heavy makeup of urban fashionable women in the carriage.
"Miss, could you please ask, what time is it now? A client's appointment time has been advanced, and the boss is in a hurry, so he forgot to bring his mobile phone when he went out..."
In the carriage, a relatively good-looking young man came over under the encouragement of his companions and showed Minnie a very charming eight-and-a-half smile. His teeth were so white that they could be used in toothpaste advertisements.
"Seven thirty Beijing time."
Li Mengnan's cell phone seemed to appear in his hand out of thin air. He glanced down and answered shamelessly.
This guy's intention of striking up a conversation is too obvious. How could he squeeze through half the car even if he asked about the time?
The man blushed at Li Mengnan's words. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of a suitable way to continue. Moreover, he was also a little confused about the relationship between Li Mengnan and Minnie. In the end, he had to shake his head as if mocking himself and said something to Li Mengnan.
Thanks and left.
"What you said is really wicked." Minnie looked at Li Mengnan with a blank expression.
"If you fall in love with a pretty boy who squeezes into the bus to go to work, I will help you call him back now."
Li Mengnan raised his head and stared at the small advertisement posted by someone on the roof of the carriage, and he actually read it with interest.
Minnie didn't speak anymore, she just held her chin and looked out the window quietly.
"Li Mengnan."
"You can call me Brother, or Brother-sama, or I love you the most, Onii-chan."
"……you're so boring."
"These days, there are too many people pretending to be serious, so I have no choice but to pretend not to be serious."
Li Mengnan's joke was very cold, but Minnie still twitched the corner of her mouth symbolically.
"Am I doing this... wrong?"
Minnie turned her face completely towards the window. Li Mengnan couldn't see her expression, but he could feel Minnie's inner conflicts and struggles.
Minnie has changed. If it had not happened before the KTV incident, her character would not have shaken her inner persistence at all.
"Do you have any coins? Preferably one dollar."
Li Mengnan did not answer Minnie directly, but instead made a request that seemed completely unrelated to the question.
Minnie took out a coin and handed it to him. Li Mengnan clapped his hands together, made fists, stretched them out in front of Minnie and said, "Guess one."
Minnie casually tapped Li Mengnan's left hand.
Both hands were opened at the same time, but the coin was in the right hand.
Li Mengnan repeated the previous action again, stretched out his fists and said: "Guess again."
Minnie tapped Li Mengnan's right hand.
He opened his hands at the same time, but both palms were empty.
Li Mengnan flicked his fingertips and popped out the coin again. He slowly clenched his fist in front of Minnie, specifically letting her see the location of the coin.
"the last time."
Minnie lingered between the two fists for a long time this time, and finally chose the right hand where she saw the coin with her own eyes.
Both hands were opened at the same time. The coin was indeed in Li Mengnan's right hand, but there was an inexplicable wrinkled hundred-dollar bill in his left hand.
The surrounding passengers could not help but exclaim in low voices, and many even asked with great interest how Li Mengnan did it and if he could teach them this little magic trick, but Li Mengnan declined them one by one with a smile.
"do you understand?"
Minnie shook her head in confusion.
"This is the philosophy of life taught to me by the old man... the grandfather who raised me." Li Mengnan remade the three changes just now and said to Minnie: "People have to face many choices in this life... Sometimes
After you choose, you find that you made the wrong choice, just like the first time you saw it; sometimes you find that no matter what you choose, it doesn't make any sense, just like the second time you see it; sometimes you obviously
You have decided that you have made the best choice, but as time goes by, you find that the choice you gave up is better than what you have now, just like you saw for the third time.”
Li Mengnan paused for a moment when he said this, and said as if making a concluding speech: "We are all ordinary people, and our eyes cannot see the future. Since it is called a choice, it means that this is a path that everyone can go on. Instead of worrying about these things,
No matter where the road leads, it is better to choose a road you like and insist on walking it to the end... Life is always a one-way street, how can there be so many ifs? "
Li Mengnan did not deliberately lower his voice. Although the noise on the bus was very loud, a considerable number of passengers around him heard what he said.
These principles are not new. In this era of information explosion, anyone with a certain level of education can say a few words. However, such old-fashioned and boring rhetoric has been replaced by Li Mengnan’s three simple and ingenious little magic tricks.
, but it has become extremely vivid, and even has a profound connotation of simplicity.
Many people in the carriage were lost in thought, seeming to be reflecting on whether their lives had also fallen into this kind of unnecessary entanglement of choices.
An old man who had been watching Li Mengnan's performance in the front row even gave a high-five and praised him: "Little girl, your friend said it well! As the saying goes, a blessing in disguise is not a blessing, and a blessing in disguise is not a disaster? Although I don't know you
What are you talking about, but to put it bluntly, based on my life experience for most of my life, it doesn’t matter what choice you make. The most important thing is to be worthy of your own heart. Otherwise, even if you get the result you want by accident, there will always be something wrong.
One day you will realize that it will be a regret that you will never make up for in your life..."
The old man's words were immediately approved by the passengers around him. A young man who looked like an office worker hugged his girlfriend tightly and said: "I agree with what the old man said... Take me as an example. My family has graduated from college.
A job was arranged for me at home. If I had gone back, I would have been a leader by now, and I would have had a special car to pick me up when I went out. But I still chose to come here with my girlfriend to develop, even though I didn’t make much money.
, I can only squeeze into the bus when I go out, but I have never regretted it!"
"If you don't regret it, why don't you regret it after you don't ask me?"
The girlfriend next to the man deliberately joked, causing bursts of laughter from the passengers around him. The man scratched his head in embarrassment, but his face was filled with incomparable happiness.
