"Once they have power, they gain face. They all strive to have more face, even if it's just to climb a step higher, to be a little bit lower than others, to make others lower their glasses an inch when they toast. They can twist their minds and use any means necessary!"
"You understand, Chen Yang, no matter what!"
At the end of the conversation, Ling Wei was on the verge of losing control of her emotions:
"Those bastards, apart from fighting for power and pursuing the feeling of prestige, they know nothing in their lives!"
"There's not a day that goes by when they're not calculating others, thinking about how to climb up the ladder. Once they get there, they'll be the best, like the Dragon King in a novel, and they'll feel great and be able to trample others under their feet."
"They are all a bunch of hypocrites. On the surface, they appear to be righteous, but deep down, they are just thinking about how to suddenly reveal their true identity and trample others under their feet."
Chen Yang looked at her in confusion.
"Shouldn't it be like this..."
Ling Wei's eyes were red and she frowned at him:
"Chen Yang, look, you have also been contaminated by them."
"Not only you, but the entire society has been corrupted by them."
"This society has become a giant pyramid, and everyone is desperately trying to climb it. To get to the top, everyone has become a beast, wanting to kick others down and become an ant."
Ling Wei paused for a long time before speaking slowly for the last sentence.
"But even ants have dignity..."
Chen Yang suddenly realized.
He didn't understand why ants had dignity.
The education he received in school, society, and family over the decades also told him this.
Ants have no dignity.
If you have power, money, and connections, you deserve to step on others, and others should be respectful to you. This is the right way in the world.
Therefore, those ants who are stepped on, those who are slapped in the face, can only disappear silently under the brilliant light of righteousness.
Seeing Chen Yang frowning, Ling Wei's chest heaved violently, and she suddenly grabbed Chen Yang:
"Don't you understand, Chen Yang? Aren't you just that ant?"
"You are worthless to Cao Kun, you are worthless to my father, you have no power or influence in Longmen, so people will bully you mercilessly, as if it is natural."
"And you either die like a coward, or work hard, work your ass off, until one day your power overwhelms them, and you can trample them under your feet in turn."
"What is this, an infinite loop?"
Chen Yang nodded: "Yes, it has been circulating for thousands of years."
Ling Wei smiled bitterly and gently loosened his collar.
"But have you ever thought that there is another possibility?"
"That is, although Cao Kun is richer than you, he still treats you with courtesy. Although Ling Tian is more powerful than you, he will not stop me from marrying you just because you are poor. Although Ye Qianshan is more powerful than you, he will not bully you wantonly."
Chen Yang looked at her quietly.
I just think she's a psycho.
"Ling Wei, are you kidding me..."
"You are called the strong, so why are you friendly to the weak?"
There was a look of despair in Ling Wei's eyes.
"You see, it's wrong, completely wrong."
"Why can't we respect the weak in this world?!"
"If everything is based on strength, then humans should have killed each other in primitive society until the strongest human king emerged and was allowed to survive alone."
"But our ancestors didn't do that. They chose cooperation, caring for women and children, protecting the weak, and unity and tolerance."
Chen Yang looked at her and suddenly frowned.
"Ling Wei, are you going to talk about that whole-hearted love thing?"
Chen Yang could never accept that everything he had experienced in the first half of his life and all the education he had received could not allow him to have even a little bit of sympathy for the weak.
His world is a diode.
Either you are trampled upon like a dog by powerful people, or you trample others upon the ground and treat them like a dog.
People should get along with each other equally. It is impossible for rich and poor people to sit by the same river and fish.
Anyone who says that we should respect each other and have love in our hearts is stupid and weak.
Only the weak talk about love.
The strong only talk about how to have fun.
But Ling Wei is an exception.
She suddenly leaned close to Chen Yang's ear and whispered:
"I don't talk about fraternity. Fraternity has no power."
"I want to kill my father. I want to unify Longmen within three years. I want to gain absolute power, and then use absolute power to teach everyone to respect the weak."
If she wasn't crazy before, Chen Yang thought she was really crazy this time.
"You yourself are a powerful person, yet you still want to teach others not to fear power. Isn't this self-contradictory?"
Ling Wei spread her hands:
"What else can I do?"
"This world has become so rotten that there's no way to fix it. The only way is for me to take over, tear everything down, and start over again."
Chen Yang squinted his eyes and looked at her: "But won't you get lost in this process?"
“You may have good intentions, but in the pursuit of power, you might end up becoming the person you hate the most.”
Ling Wei nodded and reached out to straighten Chen Yang's collar.
"That's why I want to keep you with me, and that's why I said so much to you tonight."
"You have to remember to remind me all the time so that I can remember who I was tonight."
After saying that, Ling Wei patted Chen Yang on the chest and turned to leave.
