Chapter 280: Let Her Face Reality
Song Cun was stunned and shook her head. She really had never drunk much alcohol. "If you want to drink, you can drink some by yourself. I'll drink some with you."
Liang Zhouheng exchanged glances with the waiter, smiled, and said, "Forget it, I'll drive myself today."
The waiter smiled, nodded, and retreated.
Liang Zhouheng leaned back in his seat, crossed his legs, looked at Song Cun, and said slowly, "Let's talk. If you have anything that makes you unhappy, tell me and I'll help you out."
Song Cun felt that these household matters were not presentable and not worth wasting time on.
"If you don't tell me, then I'll guess. Is Song Xiao your brother? Were they your parents who kept calling you before? Are your parents partial?"
Liang Zhouheng stared at Song Cun's face.
Song Cun had already forgotten what she had said in her haste, so she was surprised that Liang Zhouheng had guessed it so accurately.
Song Cun had no choice but to nod and whispered, "My parents are old and had a son, so they are particularly doting on my brother. Today, because my brother knew that I got my salary today, he called me and asked for more than 10,000 yuan to buy a mobile phone. I didn't agree, so he complained about me to my parents."
Liang Zhouheng was silent for a moment, then said calmly, "I don't have any other siblings. I've been alone since I was a child. I don't quite understand what a family with siblings is like, but if you think about it, you can understand. People are made of flesh and blood, not machines set with parameters. Parents can't treat everyone equally. The one who is favored will naturally be fearless, while the one who is neglected seems to have no choice but to endure it. It's human nature."
Song Cun thought he would say something nice to comfort her, but she didn't expect him to ruthlessly pierce her heart.
She pursed her lips and suppressed her unhappiness.
"Before becoming an adult, it seems we can't help but demand love from our parents, because apart from them, it seems that no one else can establish a deeper connection with us. I believe that one of the signs of growing up is learning to take care of ourselves. This isn't about food, clothing, housing, and transportation, but about being able to take care of our own hearts and stop asking for anything from our parents. Whether they love us or how much they love us is no longer a concern of ours, because we no longer need them and can take care of ourselves."
Liang Zhouheng leaned forward and continued slowly, "When you grow up, you can build a circle centered around yourself, outside of your parents. You'll have friends, colleagues, and lovers. You can build deep connections with many people and feel a lot of love. When you no longer lack love, the relationship with your parents will gradually fade away from your life."
After saying that, he leisurely picked up the water cup and took a sip of water.
It looked like he had just finished teaching a lesson to his students.
Song Cun was fascinated by what he said. She had never heard of the principles he talked about before, but she felt as if a layer of fog had been lifted and her heart became clear.
She thought that now that she had found a job and could earn money on her own, she finally didn't have to rely on her parents anymore, which was the so-called independence. But in fact, deep down she had not gotten rid of her attachment to her parents. She was no different from the little girl who was obedient, contented, and eagerly hoped that her parents would give her more love.
She has always been lacking love because the hole she left in her childhood was never filled.
Song Cun suddenly realized how pitiful he was.
Liang Zhouheng helped her realize a reality. He was right. She shouldn't expect her parents to wake up one day. Their favoritism would not be transferred to her just because she was obedient, excellent, obedient, and filial to them to the greatest extent.
Because it's human nature.
