"Jing Shuo should have told you everything about our fight, right?" Zhou Ziheng thought for a moment and asked.
Wen Wan nodded and answered decisively: "I have said so."
He couldn't help but let a trace of nostalgia appear in his eyes, and he explained carefully: "Then I won't elaborate. To be honest, the year we formed the group was actually the happiest time of my youth."
"You know I've always been different from ordinary people. My grandfather taught me since I was a child that I should avoid going out at night. If I must go out, I must be extremely cautious and must protect myself."
"I have always understood these words, but my grandfather also said something that left a deep impression on me and I still can't forget it today."
Wen Wan looked at him in immersion and asked impatiently, "What?"
Zhou Ziheng lowered his eyes and looked at Wen Wan, and suddenly felt that no matter how bitter the matter was, it would not matter. As long as he told her, it would become sweet.
"What are you daydreaming about?" Wen Wan was very dissatisfied with his behavior of keeping her in suspense. She reached out and hugged his waist, shook him hard, and urged him, "Hurry up, tell me, what did grandpa say?"
Zhou Ziheng laughed helplessly, reached out and touched her head, and continued, "Grandpa said to me, 'You are my grandson, we are blood relatives, and I naturally hope that you live a good life.'"
"'But I also know how sad it is to lose a loved one, so you must remember that if your friends are in danger because of you, you must protect them even if it means risking your life.'"
"'Of course I hate to see you die, but no other parent would want to see their child die. Your business is your own business. Even if you have to, you must not implicate others and put them in danger with you.'"
Wen Wan was silent for a long time after hearing this. Human nature is selfish. Who would not want their children to be well?
Many parents usually teach their children to mind their own business and to protect themselves at all times, as their own safety is the most important thing.
But who can be like Zhou Cheng, who would rather his own child die than let him cause others to lose their lives?
In fact, it was because Zhou Cheng knew how it felt to lose a loved one that he didn't want others to experience this pain because of his grandson.
Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you. This shows that the old man's character is far beyond that of ordinary people, and even she can't help but admire him.
Zhou Ziheng continued to recount his inner journey, "Grandpa's words had a profound impact on me. I've never forgotten them. I was still young at the time, so I didn't quite understand their meaning. But as I grew older, I understood everything."
"I was thinking at the time, if my friend and I were in danger, even if I risked my life, I wouldn't be able to save him. I could die, after all, that's fate. But if my friend died because of me, it would be too much of a shame."
"So... the best way is to kill it at the root. If I stay alone and have no friends, no one will die because of me."
When Wen Wan heard this, she suddenly felt extremely heartbroken and tears welled up in her eyes. It looked like if she blinked twice, the tears would flow down her cheeks, but she tried her best to hold back the tears.
She sniffed and asked with a choked voice, "So when we first met, you wouldn't let me get on the elevator. You just didn't want to get me into trouble, right?"
Zhou Ziheng looked at her silently and did not answer the question for a long time.
But even so, Wen Wan already had the answer in her heart. She stood up from the stool, hugged Zhou Ziheng's head with both hands and pulled him into her arms, saying distressedly, "Brother, don't be afraid. I will protect you from now on."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhou Ziheng let her hold him without moving, but he retorted: "How can a girl protect a man like me? From now on, I should be the one protecting you."
Although he looked calm, his heart was in turmoil.
Before his parents passed away, he looked at the happiness between them and asked his mother what love felt like.
My mother said that when you love someone, your heartbeat will unconsciously speed up, and you will think of her whenever you have free time. When you are together, no matter what you do, even if you are just daydreaming, you will be happy and excited.
Although he was young at that time, he already knew that he was different from others, so he answered his mother pessimistically that Ah Heng was different from others, Ah Heng would only drag others down, so Ah Heng would never have love in his life, would never have someone he liked, and would never be liked by others.
But his mother did not agree with his opinion. Instead, she told him that it would be possible. If others have it, our Ah Heng will have it too.
There will always be someone who will feel sorry for your past, understand the suffering you have endured, and then save you from danger and soothe your wounds.
At that time... he didn't believe it, but now that he really has it, he knows that what his mother said was true.
Although he encountered many hardships, these hardships also made him gain a lot.
Thinking about it this way, God is still fair. At least he didn't suffer forever.
Zhou Ziheng was immersed in his own thoughts at the moment, but he suddenly felt a wetness on his head, and suppressed sobs faintly reached his ears.
After struggling slightly twice, he broke free from Wenwan's embrace, then hurriedly pulled her to sit down again.
As expected, Wenwan's face was now covered with tears. The crystal clear tears kept falling down her cheeks like a kite with a broken string.
She cried so hard that her eyes were filled with pity. Her beautiful face turned into a kitten's.
Zhou Ziheng quickly raised his hands to hold her soft cheeks and wiped away the tears on her face with his thumbs. His movements were now very familiar and he was no longer as clumsy as before. This showed that the title of "five good boyfriend" was indeed not an empty promise.
But Wenwan's tear glands were too developed. While Zhou Ziheng was wiping her tears, her eyes were streaming. It seemed that he had been wiping for a long time but to no avail.
In fact, Zhou Ziheng is not that sad now, but Wen Wan cried even more sadly than him.
He couldn't help but sigh and silently swore in his heart that after this, Jue Shi would never tell Wen Wan any sad things again.
"Don't cry, it's all over." He coaxed softly helplessly.
It would have been fine if he hadn't said anything, but once he did, Wen Wan sobbed again and cried out in sorrow, "Wuwuwu! I can't get over it! I can't get over it in my heart!!"
Zhou Ziheng was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He quickly held the person in his arms and coaxed him softly. It took him a long time to finally coax the person into submission.
He recalled everything that happened after he met Wen Wan, reached out and pinched her soft cheek, and couldn't help but sigh.
