In the artificial lake in the city, lotus flowers are in full bloom in July. The mist is rising and the mist is lingering. Compared with the hustle and bustle during the day, it is as quiet as the underworld.
Wang Shu and Luo Yongliang couldn't bear it anymore and slept in the car.
Chen Fu walked along the lake with Li Hui for a while, and then found a place to rest. The latter sat on a long stone bench on the shore, watching the lake and smoking silently. He had gauze on his face and bandages on his hands, but he looked calmly.
Calm. However, Chen Fu saw that his hand holding the cigarette was still trembling slightly.
Although after preliminary examination and treatment, the doctor recommended that Li Hui stay in the hospital for observation, but he refused and insisted on being discharged.
puff.
Not far away, a wild duck surfaced, then dived and disappeared again with a 'coo'.
Chen Fu stood under the willow tree with his hands in his pockets, staring at the water plants in the lake in a daze. At this time, he knew that all he could do was keep quiet.
After a while, Li Hui spoke first, "Ayi..."
"Um?"
"Do you still remember that time when we were in fourth grade, we skipped class in the afternoon and were caught?"
"Well, I even got a slap in the face." Chen Fu nodded, not knowing why he suddenly mentioned these old events.
"My face is swollen..." Li Hui blew out a puff of smoke and sneered, "Does it hurt?"
Chen Fu frowned and smiled at himself, "Well, it hurts a lot."
"Hoo..."
Li Hui wiped the corners of his eyes, took a breath, and continued, "You don't know, in fact, from that day on, I told myself that I would never let anyone beat me like this... I told myself that I would rather
If I go to hit others, I will never let others hit me like this. I, ha!
Hahaha—" He pinched his eyes, his voice hoarse, "Haha, today, I finally feel your mood, huh, it's more embarrassing than I imagined, huh, huh..." He sniffed and covered his eyes.
, laughing "haha" so hard that his shoulders twitched and tears flowed out.
Chen Fu was silent.
Li Hui wiped his face dry with his palm, raised his head, took a deep breath, "Huh——"
Chen Fu thought for a moment and said, "Do you still remember my first fight?"
"With Wang Shu?"
"That was the second time." Chen Fu shook his head, "The first time I fought was when I was in the second grade. I fought with the child of the family living above us. You don't know him. He was in the first grade. We grabbed the slide in the park.
I won the fight..." Leaning on Liu Gan, Chen Fu said slowly, "At that time, I felt that fighting was nothing, as long as you were taller and stronger than others, you could win...
"
"Oh……"
"The second time was when I had a fight with Wang Shu. You were also there. He was taller and stronger than me, but I won..." It was probably from then on that Wang Shu began to respect himself.
Chen Fu said slowly, "Do you still remember? He held me down and beat me, and my head was bruised..."
"Hehe, hehe..." Li Hui laughed until he coughed up smoke.
"But then I got angry because we agreed not to slap each other in the face. Do you remember what I yelled?"
"I'm going to kill you."
"Well, he was frightened and gave up after a few hits." Chen Fu concluded, "After that, I understood that in a fight, you can't just rely on your size and strength. You have to be ruthless.
If the other person is fierce and crueler than the other person, then others will be afraid of you and not dare to offend you..."
"..."
"Later, the first time we had a group fight was at the skating rink, remember? You beat someone up, and they called a dozen people over..."
"Of course I remember." Li Hui smiled again as he thought of old memories from his youth.
"We were chased for several streets, ha--"
Chen Fu also smiled, "Then, I thought, no matter how powerful you are in fighting alone, you still need helpers, the more the better..."
Li Hui fell silent.
Chen Fu continued: "In high school, you have met many people. In the whole school, no one dares to mess with us. Even the teachers have to turn a blind eye...except for one person..."
"Zhong Guanghai."
"Because his father is the director." Chen Fu looked at the gradually fading fog and the clear lake, "Do you remember why you negotiated with him for the first time?"
"Forgot."
"Because of me." Chen Fu said leisurely, "Then do you know why I provoked him?"
Li Hui shook his head.
"Because he didn't like me." Chen Fu smiled nonchalantly, "He came to our class to look for someone and asked me where he had gone. I just said 'I don't know', and then he let me out of school.
Wait. Do you know what he said to me? I still remember it very clearly."
"What?"
"He said, I don't like the way you talk to me."
"..."
"That day after school, he drove and blocked the school gate. You should remember this, right? Many people know that even the teacher on duty didn't dare to come out, and the guard didn't even dare to fart..." Chen Fu smiled again
, "Humph, if it weren't for you, I would have probably been beaten that day."
Li Hui smoked silently.
Chen Fu said: "That's when I realized that in this world, there are really people who will trouble you just because they don't like you, don't like your tone, or don't like your look. It's not because of what you do."
What's wrong? Just because they know they are better than you, they scold you when they scold you, hit you when they hit you, bully you when they bully you, anyway you can't do anything to them..."
Looking at the lush island in the middle of the lake, Chen Fu's eyes were as light as mist, "No matter how good you are at fighting, no matter how many people there are, what will happen? There will always be someone who can fight better than you, who has more people than you, and who can fight harder than you."
You have money, you have more power than you, and even if you are really good at fighting, rich, and powerful, you are still a human being. You have parents, relatives, and friends who need food, clothing, housing, and transportation. You are not an omnipotent god. You always have needs.
When you endure..."
Li Hui was silent for a few seconds and asked, "Is there a simplified Chinese version?"
Chen Fu nodded, "If you can do it, then do it. If you can't, just be cowardly. There's no shame in it."
