Chapter 61: The ability to penetrate people's hearts
Before Xia arrived here, Russell had already communicated with Bing Shui.
This petite-looking Penguin lady has a very clear mind.
She knew from the very beginning that she could never hide the matter of finding foreign aid.
So she directly prepared another excuse:
——That’s Russell.
Since the Special Execution Department is involved, it means...that cousin "Russell" that Kasumi has talked about many times with herself will also be involved.
So, if she gets acquainted with Russell first, and then lets Xia see all this... Xia will think that Bing Shui has found Russell to protect them.
Although Xia hates Director Dodgson, she doesn't hate Russell.
She would definitely not be happy if Dodgson did the same thing, but if Russell did it... the result would be different.
And since Russell was involved, it was very reasonable for Russell to use his own name to find a colleague and sneak into the downtown area after get off work to protect her;
Russell also mentioned several times on TV that he has a very good relationship with the angels... so it is normal for him to report this matter to the angels and ask them to be careful and not to attack them actively.
In this way, Bing Shui transferred everything he had done secretly to Russell.
Even if Xia wanted to thank her, she would only thank Russell.
This is also what Bing Shui did deliberately.
Once too many complicated ingredients are mixed between friends...even if it is "thank you" or "favor", the friendship will become impure; if the gap in ability between the two people is too big, the relationship will also become...
Unconsciously, I became distant.
Just like Xia would not reveal her wealth in front of ice water, take her to expensive restaurants to eat, or go to upper-class entertainment venues to spend money...
Bing Shui will also not show his "realistic" wisdom and action in front of Xia.
Her father, the "Emperor", did not make any arrangements for her.
This veteran hero belongs to a very stubborn "hero" faction. It is precisely because of this that he has not had a "personality collapse" for so many years.
He is very determined not to give his daughter any preferential treatment or find any relationship with her.
Even if he suffers for his own family, he will never cause trouble to outsiders.
Bing Shui grew up in this kind of education.
She has developed the habit of "solving all problems by herself" since she was a child, and she became an outstanding reporter for Tian'en Daily right after graduation.
Being proficient in the techniques of hiding clumsiness and pretending to be stupid is also the wisdom of the "realistic school".
Bing Shui and Russell looked at each other, showing natural and harmless smiles.
"Oops, I forgot to inform you."
"You did it on purpose! Give you a punch!"
Xia recognized all this from Bing Shui's unpretentious tone of voice, and lightly punched Bing Shui in the stomach in embarrassment.
"Well, I didn't tell you on purpose."
Bing Shui's voice was soft and always had a long drawl: "It's surprising."
"No surprise! No surprise at all!"
Xia grabbed the ice water next to her in shame and hugged her hard as punishment: "Damn it! You guy, you are despicable!"
Seeing the two girls who had just left the "college girl" stage having fun in front of him, Russell just put his hands on his chin and looked at them with a smile.
And soon, Xia remembered that her brother was right in front of her.
So she quickly put away her disgraceful actions, tried her best to tidy up her equally disgraceful clothes with flushed cheeks, and tried her best to sit in front of Russell as dignifiedly as possible.
It feels unclear. Her heart is sad.
I originally wanted to give the brother a "very powerful sister" ...
"It's so good, full of vitality."
Russell's envy from the heart, whispered with a low voice.
He has been for a long time ... None of his friends who can make trouble with him anymore.
People who can communicate equally with him are either his elders or his predecessors.
Even if it looks the most dumb, the bad day with no shelf, as the elderly, is also Russell's uncle or elder brother -the bad day is his father's student. He is not too young to get older than Russell's father.
"Xia, I support you."
Looking at the somewhat uneasy Xia, Russell encouraged: "Although your plan is a bit immature, your idea is correct."
Hearing the words, the corners of the ice water mouth rose slightly.
And Xia's eyes brushed up.
But she was still a little afraid that this was just a scene, so she asked with a little scratch: "Really ... my idea is correct?"
——The Bingshui noticed the first half of the sentence, but Xia only heard the second half.
Russell's keenly judged the difference between the two.
So I further adjusted my attitude and revised the form that fits the sense of expectations at the moment:
"That's it. You can leave from your seat today, risk risks to speak for the people, and speak for the right thing. This is great."
Russell said gentlely: "The most precious thing is that your first reaction is not‘ let the strange person shut up ’, but‘ prove to show them ’. This shows that the power has not corroded you.”
—— Or, you haven't learned how to use your own power.
"What you pray for is just righteousness. You are seeking a" correct "answer, doing what you think is" right ", and give all the costs. For this reason, you don't even have the time to wait, don't think deeply
The room for room. You can't wait to prove your "correctness'. This awareness allows you to pay all the costs."
—— Although the righteousness and correctness are some one -sided, the planned plans are messy, and things are reckless.
"I will support you, Xia. Because you are now lingering, it is indeed the right thing. But if you do something wrong one day, I will wake you up mercilessly."
—— Only once, this is not allowed next time.
"You can rest assured ... I will not interfere with you, nor will it appear in the camera. However, since you decide to do it, you must do the best. To the end, you must record all the truth.
Tired, not allowing back. "
——I will find someone to protect you in secret, don't show ugly appearance under the live camera.
The ice water next to it understands the subtext of Russell's sentence.
She suddenly showed a little delicate expression.
How to say, Ice water feels Russell is more like her brother ...
The degree of fit between the two is a bit high.
But Xia did not understand Russell's subtext.
Her eyes seemed to be light -it was a little tears.
Xia found the person who could fully understand her for the first time, and this person happened to be the idol she was serving. It was the first time that someone told her, "You do this right".
Although she also knew that her father had never owed herself ...
But she had never received a single compliment from her father that made her feel sincere.
They are just words like "It sounds great, keep up the hard work", "You did well in the test, keep up the next time", "Well done, keep it up".
It always feels perfunctory and has no real sense.
Everything she worked hard for was just childish in her father's eyes.
Indeed...Dodgson was not like her, who had "my director father" to pave the way for her. Being able to rely on her own efforts to become a director of the head office when she was less than forty years old was already an achievement.
What an amazing talent.
But because of this, Xia will feel greater pressure.
Because she enjoys much more treatment and resources than Dodgson did back then - it is not surprising even if she can only do the same thing, not to mention that she cannot even catch up in her father's footsteps.
This makes Xia feel powerless. She desperately wants to prove herself... Because of this, she will resist the life arranged by her father.
Russell easily touched her essence during their brief relationship with her.
This innocent and righteous young lady’s most core desire is to “prove herself” and her most fundamental obsession is “not to admit defeat.”
The root of this obsession comes from her inner inferiority.
The pressure that caused her low self-esteem was not given to her by the outside world at all, but was brought to her by Dodgson.
Generally, such a girl may idolize her father and eventually find a boyfriend who has a similar success trajectory to her father.
But Xia has a desire to rise. What she wants is to surpass her father...or at least gain his approval.
Because of this, she ushered in her belated rebellious period in her twenties.
It wasn’t that puberty was really late, but that I felt such intense pressure for the first time when I came into contact with society and started working after graduation. I realized that I was just a mediocre mortal... and as a mortal, I
But she enjoyed so many resources, which made her feel guilty in her righteous heart and realized that this was "unfair".
...How should I put it?
If it weren't for her sister, she would be quite easy to deceive with such a personality. Russell could easily be deceived into thinking that he only has eyes for her.
In tonight's operation, she will also provide herself with an alibi very well. There will be no problems in this regard.
But Russell still remembers...
Bad Sun said that Xia is the new member Babel is preparing to recruit.
She is indeed talented.
As the daughter of a director and an outstanding graduate of Tian'en University, her value in the professional field is undoubted. And she can easily become a senior executive of the company and become another nail in the Tower of Babel.
At the same time, she also has a heart of justice, compassion and sacrifice.
For Xia, who was born to be superior to others, this is the most valuable talent.
Although no one has taught her how to cultivate this talent... Russell can even predict that without herself, without ice water and without the Tower of Babel, after more than ten years, Xia will become even more cold-blooded than her father.
The "company senior executives" may sneer at their naivety at this moment.
Just because a person can resist the pollution of capital and power for a while does not mean that she can resist for a lifetime.
If people sink into the abyss of failure, they will become more and more confused. The power of the soul will be continuously weakened.
After the first shaking, I can't come back again.
Therefore, in Russell's view, if you want to join Babel, Xia's purity is not enough.
She doesn't know why she is moving forward. Such people can easily become unstable factor, and become pig teammates when they shake.
It also needs further growth.
Before that, she was still a tool. It was not a companion.
Now Xia is just a big girl. To make her mature, she must make her really pain once -the painful pain.
——It, from another perspective, she is a cat.
The psychological relatives of the family can endure pain. Outsiders seem to have nothing, and they don't care about everything.
But when cats can't bear the pain, they are often ill.
How to find something to level up within a safe threshold?
Russell thought about it.
He looked at the ice water and looked at Xia.
Suddenly there is a idea.
Do not plan to engage in a "family" and radiate to Shangcheng District?
This may be used as a proper preview.
"Have you heard," the godfather of Xiacheng District "? He is the unparalleled king of Xiacheng District."
Russell said to them seriously: "Remember when acting, be careful of him."
"... Is he powerful?"
Ice water is a little worried.
Russell slowly shook his head: "That's not.
"But he has the dark wisdom that can make people sink. Words can thoroughly stitch the gaps of others' sings, and it is easy to shake people ... Eventually, he presented him loyalty.
"Many people in Shangcheng District have been controlled by him. I think he may be intending to spread his rule of Xiacheng District to Shangcheng District."
Hearing the words, Ice water frowned a little suspicious.
How do I feel ... it seems that you are like this kind of person?
