Chapter 641 is nothing more than a carefully packaged scam.
Bian Zhi is not very good at telling stories.
To put it simply, even a science student cannot describe it in fancy words.
However, Huo Wuzun listened very seriously and did not want to listen to the story as a small story at all.
Occasionally, when he heard something confusing, he would ask questions. Bian Zhi would explain a few things, and he would nod and say "Oh." Sometimes he understood, and sometimes he would say, "I'll go back and learn more about it."
Bian Zhi felt a bit burdened and worried that he couldn't explain himself clearly, so he spent some time telling this little story.
By the time we finished talking, it was already time for lunch.
Bian Yaoyao asked a few people to come over for dinner, and Bian Zhi was about to get up.
Huo Wuzun sat in his seat and asked in a low voice, "Can we still tell stories in the future?"
Bian Zhi looked at him.
Huo Wuzun added hastily, "When you are free."
Brother Leng sat on the side, covering his mouth and laughing.
I have never seen Huo Wuzun begging for attention in such a humble way. It’s so fucking satisfying to watch!
Bian Zhi felt that telling stories was not a difficult task.
The main reason was that she really couldn't bear Huo Wuzun's overly focused gaze on her. She chuckled dryly twice and wanted to say perfunctorily: Let's talk about it later.
But before she could say anything, the man's eyes darkened, and the smile on his face faded. He made up his own excuses for her, "Well, you are so busy. You should rest when you have time. I was just talking casually. Actually, I don't really understand."
What Bian Zhi was about to say was stopped at the tip of his tongue.
She sighed, "Well," she paused, "I'll say something simpler next time."
"Really?" The dim flame in his eyes was like a lit candle, dancing with joy and restraint. "Okay then!"
These two words were spoken with such a strong voice.
It made Bian Zhi feel like he had made some extraordinary promise.
After Huo Wuzun finished speaking, he went to help Bian Yaoyao serve the dishes.
Bian Zhi sighed, and when he looked up, he was met with Leng Ge's teasing expression.
"Not bad, you're quite good at making people laugh. Look, your old father is laughing. It's just a small story, don't be stingy, just treat it as-"
Leng Ge paused.
Bian Zhi felt that this person could not say anything good.
really.
Leng Ge smiled and said, "Just think of it as taking care of the lonely old man."
Bian Zhi: “…”
Bian Zhi was too lazy to pay attention to Leng Ge. When she went to eat, Leng Ge followed her.
She said cheerfully, "You are such a good father. I have been feeling regretful and inferior these past few days. I feel like I have wasted my whole life and am not worthy of a good daughter like you."
Bian Zhi: “…”
At the dinner table.
It’s not that she was very enthusiastic, but the dishes on the table were all her favorites.
"Huo Wuzun bought it," Bian Yaoyao explained with a smile.
But Bian Zhi didn't seem to mention specifically what she liked to eat. Perhaps Huo Wuzun noticed the frequency with which she picked up dishes every time she came over to eat.
Bian Zhi didn't say anything and ate in silence.
After dinner.
The nanny came to clean the house, and Bian Zhi went to the yard still holding the medical record.
Huo Wuzun brought over the dessert. Bian Yaoyao stood far away and said, "He made it himself. Try it."
When the dessert was brought to her, Bian Zhi took a bite. The taste was light, but it suited her taste very well.
"Very good." Bian Zhi gave affirmation.
Huo Wuzun stood there, it was time to go, but he wanted to say something earlier.
Bian Zhi didn't drive him away either.
Eating dessert quietly.
Huo Wuzun tightened his grip and suddenly thought of something, "Zhou Suihuai, hasn't he come back yet?"
Bian Zhi dug into the snack with a spoon and said, "Well, tell him not to come back for now."
Huo Wuzun was stunned for a moment.
Then I reacted.
Bian Zhi didn't want people to come back in a hurry because she wanted them to understand clearly that she was a poisonous person and she couldn't keep him or send him away as she pleased.
Although the opponent's first provocation was tortuous, it happened to hit the edge of Bian Zhi's knife.
Therefore, Bian Zhi wanted to teach the other party a lesson at once, and also tell everyone clearly that no matter how you play, I can tolerate you as long as you are in a good mood, but if you dare to touch the people around me, then I will take turns with you.
Once again, Huo Wuzun admired Bian Zhi's strategy.
Huo Lao Er was probably very pleased with himself for detaining the person at the beginning, but now, it is easier said than done, and it is time to start a headache.
Indeed, he is a very smart child.
Huo Wuzun thought about what Lin Jue said about the junior class, and felt a little yearning and curious.
He felt that Bian Zhi at that time, full of vigor and ambition, and having achieved success at a young age, should have looked the most beautiful.
He doesn't care about being praised or anything like that.
However, he really wanted to see how calm and confident Bian Zhi was when he was young.
Bian Zhi looked at Huo Wuzun's expression and slowly put down the spoon.
"There's nothing to envy."
"Um?"
Bian Zhi said: "At that time, I didn't feel very happy."
Huo Wuzun was stunned.
Bian Zhi's tone was indifferent, without any emotion, just like the story he told earlier, he spoke in a straightforward manner: "At that time, many people did say that I was great and praised my intelligence, but I never felt happy."
"Lin Jue...it was also from that time that he realized that he had a daughter at home. She was actually quite capable and could be something he could brag about. From that time on, he began to show some preference for me."
For some reason, Bian Zhi never thought of hiding anything from Huo Wuzun.
include--
"I have had mood disorders. Unlike my mother, I suffered from depression while I was lucid. Doctors are like this. They know the ins and outs of this disease, but they also know that I am approaching despair step by step. The gap between clarity and hesitation made me feel torn at that time.
Not everyone's love can withstand the test. For example, if you see a puppy on the street and you think it's cute, you're willing to give it some food and do a little kindness occasionally. But if one day the puppy shows its teeth in fear and threatens to hurt you, no one will think it's cute anymore.
That was her situation at that time.
Before that hot summer, she had been ignored by the Lin family for a long time.
It had been so long that she had become numb and took it all for granted.
It had been so long that she felt like a bystander in the Lin family. She was isolated from the outside world, with no one caring about her or paying attention to her.
She fell into a hopeless emotional illness.
When she thinks back to that time now, all she knows is that the sun was so hot that summer.
She couldn't sleep all night and sat alone on the mat, waiting from dusk to dawn.
The sunlight shone into the room from the window, scorching the entire carpet. She sat there for the entire hot summer.
It was like a silent torture in the heart.
Therefore, from the moment her college entrance examination results exploded and she attracted all the attention of the outside world and the media's cameras, Lin Jue was shocked to realize that there was another person named Bian Zhi in his family.
Bian Zhi thought of those days.
I didn't feel particularly happy, I just felt -
funny.
"I think humans are the most mercenary creatures."
"It's like I need to be excellent to be loved by others."
"Otherwise, I deserve to be forgotten."
That hot summer, what was forced upon Bian Zhi was the ugliest sophistication of an adult.
"So, I said that I didn't feel happy at the time, nor did I have the lofty ambitions you expected," Bian Zhi lowered his eyes and said indifferently, "On the contrary, I felt that this world was extremely boring."
"However," Bian Zhi recalled the incident many years later with only a faint smile, "If you envy Lin Jue back then, then perhaps you do. At the time, he did receive a lot of praise and attention because of me, and he was quite happy."
Happy to--
Just like he used to take Bian Yaoyao to dinner parties, he took her in and out of various banquets.
At that moment, Bian Zhi suddenly understood what kind of helplessness Bian Yaoyao felt when she attended those dinner parties and showed the same awkward and perfunctory smile as she does now.
I heard that people always grow up in an instant.
That summer.
Sitting at a table full of guests, Bian Zhi was drinking bitter red wine when he suddenly made a surprising discovery.
What she thought was her parents' love might be just a carefully packaged scam.
