Chapter 174
Ji Wan didn't expect to hear such words.
There was no blame, no venting of anger, and even her chemical role in the relationship was completely washed away.
She looked at Yun Jinshu who was leaning quietly against the tree trunk in a trance, but the scene of him protecting the two children in his arms and enduring the insults and attacks alone flashed through her mind.
In Ji Wan's memories of both of his lifetimes, Yun Jinshu was always a gentle person who spoke softly and tenderly, and when she looked at people, there always seemed to be just the right smile in her eyes, like an older sister and also like a mother.
But when protecting Yun Mian, Yun Jinshu was more like a silent and solid shield. Even though she did not have the ability to fight against so many people, she still firmly used her body to provide Yun Mian with a strong enough safe house.
Ji Wan used to think that Sister Yun was a gentle person.
But now, she suddenly felt that the other person was powerful enough, powerful enough to change the fixed fate with ease.
First a strong man, then a gentle woman, and finally a soft mother.
Strange characteristics make up the woman in front of him. Looking at her, thinking of the calmness with which she lowered her eyes as she stained the blood on her forehead with her fingers, Ji Wan suddenly drew a strong enough confidence from her.
"Sister Yun." Ji Wan suddenly felt an impulse in her heart, which prompted her to speak rashly: "If you were me..."
The rest of the words were stuck in her throat because of the other person's understanding and calm gaze when he raised his eyes to her. She could only stare at her blankly with her mouth slightly open.
Yun Jinshu's eyes fell on the jade pendant on her chest, and he said gently in silence: "If I were you, I would never allow fate to influence every decision I make."
Ji Wan couldn't help but emphasize: "But I..."
But I am in a special luck, and any good intention can expand into an unknown disaster.
"The reason why people are controlled by fate is that they are not strong enough." Yun Jinshu interrupted what she was about to say, looked up at her, and spoke softly, but with enough power to destroy everything: "The fate that you find hard to escape may just be a hopeless illusion of the weak, just like the soul that occupies your body, and you think you are weaker than her. What else can you do except being manipulated by fate?"
Just like an ant trapped by a child with a line of branches, it is trapped in a seemingly vast circle. It doesn't know which way to go, when to stop, how to turn... All the decisions that seem to be made after careful consideration are actually just the child's whim.
If the creatures trapped in the circle were not tiny ants, but mice, cats, dogs, birds, or any creatures more powerful than ants, then the seemingly vast circle would only be a meaningless circle, nothing more.
Perhaps it was because what she said was too blunt and too condescending, even Ji Wan couldn't help but feel a little defensive on behalf of that woman and himself.
She subconsciously clenched her fingers, gathered enough courage, and asked with a little offense: "What about you?"
"Sister Yun, are you a weak person?"
Is that the ant trapped in the circle of lines?
If so, why do you say those words from such a high position?
If not, why did you have no other response except to endure those attacks and insults just now?
Ji Wan forced himself to look into Yun Jinshu's eyes, which seemed gentle but were actually indifferent. He kept encouraging himself in his heart, and only then was he able to question calmly.
Perhaps it was not appropriate to use the word "question". She should have wanted to explore more, to explore why Yun Jinshu had the confidence to say those words, whether he was strong, or... he did not see clearly how weak he was.
Facing her gaze that tried hard to meet his gaze, Yun Jinshu was not dissatisfied with her questioning. Instead, he really started to think about it.
After a moment, she told Ji Wan: "Maybe, I am an ant trying to grow wings."
"I face up to my own weakness at the moment, so I try even harder to escape from that meaningless circle that is indeed trapping me."
"As for what happened just now..."
Yun Jinshu looked at the two little guys who seemed to have their eyes closed but were actually eavesdropping on the adults' conversation with their ears perked up. His eyes softened and he even smiled. Then he said slowly and gently, "When I was preparing to take Xiaohao with me, I had already anticipated that scene. But guess why I still insisted on taking him with me?"
“…Why?” Ji Wan couldn’t guess. She couldn’t even think of any reason about Xiao Hao that would be worth Yun Jinshu’s risk.
Xiao Hao secretly opened his eyes a little and was a little curious.
However, Yun Mian quickly raised her hand to cover her eyes, and the two children continued to pretend to sleep and eavesdrop with full of flaws and no acting skills.
"Because, he might be the pair of wings I can grow."
Yun Jinshu's softly spoken words were like a bolt of thunder falling on Ji Wan.
She struggled to digest the possible hidden meaning in this sentence, but after thinking for a long time, she found that she was still confused, even more difficult to sort out than at the beginning.
My head itches a little, as if a brain is about to grow.
But unfortunately, it died halfway through its growth.
Now she only regretted that she was not in her golden IQ peak period in her senior year of high school.
Damn it, if I were a senior in high school, I would definitely understand it!!
Not only can you understand it, but you may also be able to apply it to other situations!
If I could, I would really like to give myself a new brain...
Ji Wan, who didn't understand, lowered his head in frustration, feeling somewhat unwilling. However, if he asked further, he would expose his remaining IQ.
Just as she was hesitating, Du Qing, who had been silent beside her, made the choice for her.
"Sister Yun, what do you mean?" Du Qing looked confused, and even his confusion was expressed very directly: "I don't understand, can you explain it in simpler terms?"
Ji Wan: “…”
Secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Although my IQ hasn't increased much after living one more lifetime, it seems that I'm not lagging behind the college students at the moment!
Ji Wan refused to think about such profound questions as whether college students were in a period of low IQ.
Under the gaze of two pairs of clear eyes full of curiosity, Yun Jinshu was silent for a moment, and said bluntly: "He is the first zombie who can communicate with humans, understand human language, and even show human nature. Just based on this, isn't it enough for the survivors to take him seriously?"
Ji Wan, Du Qing: "..."
Is, is that so?
It turns out that Xiaohao is so powerful? ?
The two kids next to them, especially the kid Xiaohao, also tilted their heads in confusion: Am I so awesome?
He looked at Yunmian blankly.
Yun Mian patted his head, eyes curved: "Xiaohao's body is icy cold, amazing!!"
It’s super comfortable to walk with Xiaohao in the summer, just like turning on the air conditioner at home~ Yunmian sometimes even stares at Xiaohao and unconsciously imagines a big cold watermelon!
I am praised for being awesome.
Xiao Hao imitated Yunmian's movements and curved his eyes. Although his smile was very stiff, it was obvious that he was trying very hard to learn how to smile.
Ji Wan scratched her head in embarrassment. She didn't expect the reason to be so simple, straightforward and inexplicably convincing. She smiled awkwardly and felt that the two of them had embarrassed all the college students in the team. She was about to find an excuse to escape, but was stopped by Yun Jinshu.
Yun Jinshu looked at her with a gentle smile, and as she became increasingly anxious, he said slowly, "You asked me so many questions, and I answered them one by one. So, are you willing to promise me a small favor?"
A small matter? What is it?
"Don't call it a small matter. Sister Yun, you have always taken care of us. Even if it is a big deal, as long as we can do it, we will definitely help you!" Du Qingxian patted his chest and agreed readily.
Ji Wan thought about it, but couldn't think of anything Yun Jinshu could ask him to do, so he nodded without any precautions: "Of course!"
Five seconds later, she wished she could travel back in time and beat that stupid self to death.
Plus the even more stupid Du Qing.
"...You are putting too much pressure on me." She thought bitterly about Yun Jinshu's request. At that moment, she seemed to see the other party really turned into an ant with wings. The fear that every step she took would be calculated by others for a hundred steps made her feel creepy even under the scorching sun. The other party's words even caused a layer of fine white sweat on her back.
Du Qing was also dumbfounded. After a long pause, he said stutteringly, "Sister Yun... this, this isn't good, is it? Isn't it... a little too cruel?"
"Is it cruel?" Yun Jinshu looked at them with a smile, and said softly with a little doubt: "My request should be easy for you to complete."
She never makes things difficult for others.
Ji Wan almost cried when he saw her like this.
Yes, what you asked is very easy for me to do, but... don't you think it's a bit too cruel and terrible?
Why would Sister Yun, who was so gentle and even like a mother to her, suddenly ask her to unconditionally help those who had just watched the attack to cure their hidden diseases!
Her special ability can cure most of the hidden injuries in people's bodies, even the migraine caused by staying up late can be cured. Once this condition is released... can that group of people really survive?
Ji Wan didn’t know, he just felt that he was shrouded in great terror.
What ant with wings? She now felt that she was the unlucky ant, and the Yun Jinshu in front of her was simply a terrifying controller who covered her with glass and left her no chance of survival!
The most terrifying thing is that she had already agreed in advance... Now if she wants to find an excuse to go back on her word, there is no room for struggle.
So what to do? Do you really, really want to do that?
Even though those people were indeed hateful, with so many lives at stake, Ji Wan's hands began to tremble uncontrollably just thinking about it.
Why do people with the surname Yun, whether it’s Yun Jinshu or Yun Mian, treat human life so lightly?
Are they really people living in a peaceful era?
Just when Ji Wan was so desperate that she was about to go back on her word, the person in front of her seemed to finally see her dilemma.
Yun Jinshu sighed helplessly: "Since you don't want to, forget it. I just want to give it a try and test the different levels of influence on your luck."
Ji Wan: “…Really?”
Instinctively, she didn't dare to believe every word the other party said, even though every word Yun Jinshu said seemed to be sincere and even a professional lie detector would not be able to detect any lies.
But...she was indeed shamefully moved by these words.
Ji Wan: (Shivering) You, you said Chinese people don’t cheat Chinese people!
Mom: Well, I’m not lying to you.
Ji Wan: QAQ
