Time flies, and the twins are already seven years old. In this era, it is no longer fashionable for boys and girls to sit together after the age of seven. Many wealthy families have begun to send their daughters to girls' schools or even abroad to study.
What puzzled Cheng Shuang was that her life since birth seemed to have been on fast-forward. Almost as soon as she successfully learned to walk, every day and every second passed by very quickly. Sometimes the little girl wondered if the world in movies was like this, with everyone in a state of accelerated progress before the characters appeared in the story.
She has two guesses about this. One is that the supporting characters or passersby serve the main characters, and if the main characters are not involved, they move quickly until the main characters appear, at which point they return to normal.
Secondly, she had lived a tense life in the land of death, so she felt very relaxed and happy in the current calm and tranquility, subconsciously believing that time had accelerated.
The second theory was quickly refuted by Cheng Shuang after a brief observation.
She couldn't very well sit quietly in the study while the servants, who didn't need to communicate with her, busily completed their cleaning tasks, as if possessed by 'Luo An'. Basically, after she finished practicing one calligraphy model, she would look up and, wow, several hours had passed, and it was already dark.
The little girl thought of her older sister Juan, who had been bedridden for thirty years, and silently shed a tear of sympathy for her.
When Liu Juan enters the Resident Evil storyline, the plot hasn't officially begun yet, but the various injustices Alessa has suffered in the past are introduced to all viewers through flashbacks. In other words, without the hardships of the first thirty years, the dark side of today cannot be created, so that experience is indispensable.
Choosing a movie by voting for one's own ticket is just as important as choosing one's birth. After thinking about it, apart from Sister Yuewei who was slightly tricked in her entry method, no one else was as relaxed and at ease as her.
With this realization, Cheng Shuang became known as a simpleton in the eyes of her neighbors.
Because she is always a beat slow to react, when others speak, she often tilts her head, thinks for a moment, and then answers softly.
The twins of the Long family, the wealthiest family in the town, one a simpleton and the other a fierce-looking one, became a well-known legend in the town.
She has a silly, innocent look with the auspicious appearance of a goddess sitting on a jade maiden's throne. Unfortunately, she has a sense of alienation from everyone else. She can sit blankly for a whole day. But when she smiles, it's so sweet and adorable that you can't help but love her.
He had a fierce, malnourished, thin, and pale face. When he glared, his eyes looked like those of a little devil demanding repayment of debts. He never smiled and would bare his teeth at anyone he saw. The first words he learned to speak were, "Dare to come closer, or I'll electrocute you!" He was practically a lunatic.
This child has a much worse temper than his sister. Except for occasionally giving his sister a nice look, he treats other family members almost no differently than outsiders.
He would go berserk and howl at the slightest dissatisfaction, and neighbors often saw lightning flashing continuously in a corner of the Long Mansion.
The rumors about twins are getting more and more outrageous. In ancient times, there was Nezha who killed a dragon and pulled out its tendons. Now, there is a dragon's madness that causes unrest in the home.
In short, it all implies that the birth of these twins signifies that the Dragon Mansion will decline in status.
However, the other three masters in the mansion didn't care at all.
Madam Long was convinced that with her beloved daughter, her youngest son would never cause any trouble. Master Long, on the other hand, loved a large family and believed outsiders were simply envious and jealous. Long Wei, completely oblivious to this, grew increasingly fond of challenging himself with difficult tasks as he aged. After gaining experience from being electrocuted by Long Wei, and with Cheng Shuang's deliberate guidance, he independently developed an incredibly ugly anti-electrocution suit made of celluloid glasses frames.
Longwei originally intended to promote it throughout the town, but due to the high cost, he suffered his first major setback.
To comfort his youthful heart, which had finally decided to strive for success, Master Long and Madam Long each bought a set. They wouldn't wear them (mainly because the Dragon Palace only targets the Dragon's might), but they would display them in their rooms as plastic armor or decorations, which... were quite creepy.
The Dragon Palace treated the Dragon family like strangers until Madam Dragon passed away.
That day, Long Dian and Cheng Shuang were held tightly by Master Long. Master Long cried his heart out, repeatedly saying, "Yingying, go in peace! I will teach Awei well and have him take good care of our youngest brother and sister. No matter how outsiders see them, they are still the young master and young lady of the Long family! A family should love each other and live in harmony."
When Long Wei came from the mourning hall, he was immediately reprimanded by Master Long, who ordered him to swear that he would treat his younger siblings fairly and lovingly, without any favoritism, and that he would never take all the family property for himself. He also warned that brothers should not quarrel, and that only when the family is united can they overcome any difficulty.
Longwei is just a bit unruly and mischievous, but his feelings for his family are no less than those of any of his children or older brothers.
He immediately wiped away his tears and nodded, then took the twins in his arms without hesitation. The two men, one big and one small, held the twins and wept uncontrollably.
From that day on, Long Dian gradually changed his attitude toward Master Long and Long Wei. Although it was not as good as his attitude toward Cheng Shuang, he was still willing to give them a lukewarm answer or a look when they patiently asked him about something.
Unfortunately, Lord Long did not live to see the Dragon Palace completely transformed. Three years after Lady Long's death, he too passed away, suffering from a long-term illness due to missing his wife.
Before leaving, he forced himself to divide the Long family's assets into three parts in the presence of close friends and relatives. Only the ancestral home was to be exclusively enjoyed by Long Wei, with one condition: if his younger sister wished to marry into the family, she could spend her life in the ancestral home. As for Long Dian, he wouldn't force him. This child would eventually become a wild horse, uncontrollable by anyone. As long as he didn't commit evil deeds or tarnish the Long family's reputation, Master Long was willing to see him truly happy one day.
The ancestral home is the greatest wealth of many families, and Long Wei was not dissatisfied with it. He also knew that his younger siblings did not care about money, so he did not want to worry about hurting their feelings by giving or taking a penny more or less. In fact, after the passing of his grandfather, Long Wei truly matured.
He knew he didn't have the prestige of Master Long, nor was he good at managing businesses, so he found himself a stable job as a security captain.
Only with power can one protect their younger siblings so they can fly freely.
Longwei completely shed his spoiled rich kid mentality, and the young man in his early twenties began to seriously learn what responsibility and commitment meant.
Since the funeral of Master Long was over, Cheng Shuang suddenly realized that one day, the speed of the people around her had actually kept up with hers, and it no longer felt like she was on an accelerator.
The little girl knew that the story was about to begin.
Sure enough, one late night, Cheng Shuang, who was sitting on the roof with her two older brothers watching the moon and enjoying the cool air, heard the sound of bells in the distance.
The rhythm was distinct, accompanied by the sound of neat, synchronized footsteps.
She turned her head and couldn't help but listen carefully...
"It's a corpse-driving team!"
Someone next to her answered her.
The twelve-year-old boy had lost the ferocity unique to the demonic infant, but gained the vitality unique to youth. Seeing Cheng Shuang looking at him, he blinked his big eyes, seemingly asking silently how he knew the answer. Long Dian pouted, offering a curt, impatient explanation, "Idiot, I saw it before!"
