The Second Municipal Hospital is the most famous hospital in City A. It is so powerful that it has a branch hospital just in City A. The style of the branch hospital is different from that of the main hospital. It looks more like a private hospital. Its inpatient department is even divided into grades. As long as you can afford it, you can stay in the hospital like staying in a hotel.

Zheng Ruocheng lives in such a hotel-style ward. The ward is equipped with independent bathroom and small living room, and the privacy is excellent.

Huo Manying only followed Su Yunbai to the door of the ward, and she stopped.

She put on sunglasses again, and she still looked the perfect and unattainable Huo Manying, but the words she said were not confident: "She doesn't want to see me... Please..."

Su Yunbai knocked on the door, and without waiting for a response from inside, he pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as the door was opened, Zheng Ruocheng's sharp voice came out through the crack of the door: "Who let you in? I let you in..." He stopped talking halfway.

Zheng Ruocheng, who was lying on the hospital bed, finally saw who was coming and sat up subconsciously, "Cousin...cousin's wife?" Her arrogant attitude disappeared at once, and her tone revealed a bit of genuine helplessness, "Why are you here?"

Su Yunbai said, "Call me Teacher Su. I heard that you were in the hospital, so I came to see you."

Her tone was very calm. Although it didn't seem close, it didn't mean much criticism. With

such an attitude...

Zheng Ruocheng suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Zheng Ruocheng never admitted it, but she was actually a little afraid of Su Yunbai. Although Su Yunbai never hit her or scolded her, and even most of the time, she had a mild temper, there was a very subtle relationship in the world called teacher-student. As a poor student, Zheng Ruocheng was instinctively a little afraid of Su Yunbai.

Especially when she still felt vaguely guilty in her heart - no matter what, taking sleeping pills to commit suicide is not something worth encouraging.

Of course, a child who is spoiled and raised by others will still have a temper even if she feels guilty in her heart.

Therefore, Zheng Ruocheng cleverly shifted the main contradiction and asked loudly: "Did my mother ask you to come? Why is she always like this! She goes to you whenever I have something to do... Is there any mother like her?"

Su Yunbai did not deny it: "Your mother also cares about you."

This remark directly hit Zheng Ruocheng's sore spot: "Care about me? That's what she calls caring about me?"

It can be heard that Zheng Ruocheng has been full of resentment towards Huo Manying for a long time. "Compared to caring about whether someone picks me up from school, whether I am alone at home, and how my homework is going... She cares more about which fashion show is opening today, and which fashion is popular tomorrow. Or, who said what inappropriate words on such and such occasions, and who got embarrassed because of something...

"Her life is colorful, how can she have time to care about me? "

Su Yunbai sat down and said, "Your mother is not responsible at all. I can't judge this. Just from my point of view... Ruocheng, you know that I hate your mother, right?"

Zheng Ruocheng didn't expect Su Yunbai to be so direct, and he felt a little uneasy.

Su Yunbai said, "Although it's not good to say that about your mother in front of you, it's really not a secret and there's nothing to hide.

"I really hate your mother. I believe that your mother hates me the same way. If possible, she might wish she would never see me again - just as I don't want to see her again.

"Before I met your mother, I didn't even believe that there were such people in the world. Arrogant, cold, unkind, never knowing where she is wrong...

"But to be honest, I've known your mother for so many years, and I've never seen her act like a bad person. She's always been arrogant and bossy in front of me...

"But this time, things are different. After you got into trouble, your mother came to me with bloodshot eyes and a bad look on her face. She apologized to me in a humble manner and begged me to come and see you..."

Su Yunbai sighed softly, "Ruocheng, from my point of view, the person I hate finally knows how to put away that 'noble' face, so I should naturally be proud of it. But just as there is a tragedy in the world called the hero's end, a person who has always been proud knows how to 'humble', and she has to humble herself to someone she has always looked down upon. The torment in this must be great...

"I don't sympathize with your mother, but I think you might want to know these things."

Zheng Ruocheng was stunned for a long time.

Her eyes were red, but she was still as arrogant as ever: "She asked for it! She is always offending people... You don't know how much she went too far.

"He Zhaoyang was about to take part in the preliminary round of the physics competition. At such a critical moment, she ran to our school and ridiculed everyone, and forced our teachers to invite his parents...

"There are only him and his grandmother in his family... His grandmother is very strict with him. She scolded him in the grade room and he couldn't even raise his head..."

Zheng Ruocheng was really sad when talking about these things.

Her mother has been so arrogant for too long and has no respect for others. She made such a scene in the grade room, not only trampling on He Zhaoyang's face, but also trampling on her self-esteem.

From now on, how can she hold her head up in front of her classmates?

Especially... how will He Zhaoyang look at her?

When she thought of this, Zheng Ruocheng felt like there was a fire burning in her heart. She had cried secretly several times without anyone knowing.

The thoughts of a young girl were originally in a hazy stage, but her mother was so arbitrary and domineering... The tit-for-tat, the rebelliousness in her heart suddenly rose.

Zheng Ruocheng has a knot in his heart about Huo Manying: "Maybe she really cares about me. But she is always like this! She always looks down on others and always thinks she is right. She looks down on this and that...

" "What era is it now? She is the only one who still lives in the feudal era, talking about her family background every day..."

Zheng Ruocheng's eyes were filled with tears, but he looked at Su Yunbai stubbornly, as if seeking her support: "Cousin, love should not be divided between the rich and the poor. My mother's concept is wrong, isn't it?"

This question...

Su Yunbai was silent for a moment, and sighed: "I'm not lying to you, I can't answer you this question."

Zheng Ruocheng widened his eyes, as if he had been betrayed, "How come you are the same as my mother? Are you the one she sent to persuade me?

"Go away, I don't want to listen to those words that sound like people living in the last century! Go away!"

Su Yunbai sighed softly, "I didn't want to tell you this, but since you have the courage to 'resist' like this, it's okay to say it.

"I don't know if your thoughts on love and family background are influenced by the relationship between me and your cousin. But I don't suggest that you use our case as a reference. Whether it is positive or negative, our case is not a valuable case.

"Ruocheng, love knows no distinction between rich and poor, but how to live is a very personal matter.

"Of course I can tell you with certainty whether your mother's ideas are right or wrong, but that's just my opinion. The person who really has to face your own life is you, not me, do you understand what I mean?"

Zheng Ruocheng pursed her lips with a stubborn look.

It can be seen that she didn't listen.

Su Yunbai thought for a while and continued: "In this world, apart from universal values ​​and laws, there is actually no fixed truth. From my point of view, I believe that personal abilities can transcend classes, and there is true love in the world; but from your mother's point of view, she believes that poor couples are always sad.

"That's all right. The world is so big that it can accommodate all kinds of different viewpoints. You can even easily find evidence for each of them in life and stories.

"But reason is just reason. When it comes to paper negotiations, it doesn't matter what you say. When the choice is handed over to you, which side you choose to believe will have a direct impact on your future life.

"That's why I said that I can't answer this question for you. It's not because I don't have an answer, but because life is your own, and life is your own. I can't tell you the answer, you should find the answer yourself.

"No one can be responsible for your life except yourself."

"But I have already chosen a side, my mother is trying to interfere in my life! "Zheng Ruocheng finally listened, but still not convinced.

"Your mother can still interfere because you are not yet able to take responsibility for your life.

"Ruocheng, if you want others to respect your life, you can't just talk loudly, and it won't work by crying, making a fuss, or even hanging yourself - it should be said that this is the lowest method." Su Yunbai said.

"Then what do you rely on?"

Su Yunbai looked at her: "Rely on strength! Don't you always find a reason to make progress? Now you have it. Read more books and study hard.

"The more books you read, the less narrow you will be when you encounter problems. If you study deeply, you will have the ability to take responsibility for your own life. "

"Take me as an example. "Su Yunbai smiled, "Ruo Cheng, without the identity of Mrs. Huo, I can still be Teacher Su, Associate Professor Su..."

"In the near future, I can also be Professor Su. If I am more powerful and motivated, one day, I can also be Expert Su, Academician Su...

" "This is something I have earned myself, and no one can take it away. I can rely on this to be responsible for my own life. When external forces like your mother want to interfere with me, I can confidently refuse them, and I don't even need to pay attention to them.

"I don't even need to defend myself loudly, and I don't need to rush to state my position. As long as I stand there, no one can influence me.

"Only when you grow into a towering tree, the external wind will be just wind, not a disaster.

"Do you understand what I mean?"

Zheng Ruocheng stared at Su Yunbai blankly.

She didn't know how to describe her feelings, but at this moment, Su Yunbai was so attractive that she couldn't take her eyes off her. She was not wearing fancy clothes, and she didn't even put on much makeup. Her bare face was so dazzling that it was almost blinding.

Zheng Ruocheng had never known why her cousin, who was so arrogant, would be with her cousin's wife. But now, she vaguely knew.

Su Yunbai reached out and touched Zheng Ruocheng's hair. "No matter what, don't do stupid things, especially don't do stupid things that hurt the people who really care about you."

She whispered, "People's hearts are actually very fragile. Even the closest relationships need to be managed and maintained. If they are really hurt, there is no way to recover..."

Zheng Ruocheng still stared at Su Yunbai blankly.

At a certain moment, her eyes suddenly moved, and then quickly moved back.

She asked carefully: "Cousin, is it really... impossible to recover?"

Su Yunbai was not fooled and turned her head alertly.

The door of the ward was open with a not-so-narrow gap. Huo Qinian was standing behind this gap, half leaning against the wall, looking at her quietly, and she didn't know how long he had been looking at her.
