Taking advantage of the fact that another girl band was warming up, Chen Leilei called the poppy out of the backstage, picked up a very inconspicuous position in the bar, sat down, and ordered a soft drink for the poppy.

"Drink it and moisten your throat. Chen Leilei pushed the cup to the poppy with a serious face.

The poppy took a sip and smiled, "What?

Chen Leilei didn't say anything funny anymore: "Poppy, Narcissus told me about the matter between you and Li Sheng." ”

Poppy thought that Narcissus only talked about the previous grievances between her and Li Sheng, and smiled and complained: "That girl, why don't you usually have a big mouth, why do you learn to have a big mouth now......"

Chen Leilei looked at Poppy seriously and found that she didn't understand, so he said bluntly: "I'll just ask directly." Now that you and Li Sheng are inexplicably close, have you made any deal with him?"

Poppy didn't expect Chen Leilei to ask this, under the illumination of Chen Leilei's pair of dark and bright eyes, he was stunned for a moment, slowly frowned, took a sip of the drink, and did not answer.

Chen Leilei saw that the poppy was embarrassed and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I was too reckless......"

The poppy slightly curled her cherry lips, sighed worriedly, and her big peach-like eyes revealed great helplessness and sadness, Chen Leilei only felt that he saw the Qinglou woman who lamented her life experience in the ancient Qinhuai River.

Poppy put down the cup and stared at Chen Leilei, with a slight inferiority complex and resentment, and said: "Chen Leilei, the second generation of officials like you will not understand the hardships of our ordinary people. ”

Chen Leilei was slightly touched by the sadness in the poppy's eyes, frowned, and said, "I understand."

。 I'm not a second-generation official, I'm also an ordinary person. ”

Poppy looked at Chen Leilei incredulously, she always thought that Chen Leilei was a second-generation official.

Chen Leilei raised his wine glass, took a sip of the specially ordered liquor, stimulated his nerves, and said with a wry smile: "Poppy, what we have experienced may be different, but I, like you, have been confused because of social injustice...... At that time, I couldn't understand why we ordinary people worked hard and still couldn't leave any traces in their lives, while some people could easily turn over the rain and clouds while enjoying themselves all day long. I despise this society very much, I think it is too unfair, and I keep shouting that everyone is equal, just and fair, but why do some people have a higher status than us because they are from a good background?"

Chen Leilei said with a self-deprecating smile and continued: "At that time, I was called an angry person with a bitter and hateful stinky face all day long, and I was irritable about everything, and my mood was much more depressed than you are now. I can't even mention the interest of pickling girls, and when I think about my future, I feel bored, really boring, and I can't get the due return for paying, and I can't work hard ...... anymore.

"Poof!" The hot band seemed to play the speakers, and a cracking sound made the whole bar excited, Chen Leilei was interrupted, pointed to the venue and asked: "They won't break the stereo, right? Can you still sing?"

"It's okay, it's just that they're too out of tune. Poppy smiled faintly and focused his attention on Chen Leilei and asked, "How did you get out later?"

Chen Leilei smiled and said: "Rely on people to guide, right? At that time, a brother from my university told me that you are poor and short-minded!"

"Wait for the university?" Poppy interrupted Chen Leilei and asked with a frown, "Are you fooling me?"

"Hey, don't worry about fooling around, just listen to it. Chen Leilei said eloquently: "At that time, he said that I was poor and short-minded, and I felt quite right when I heard it, I was too childish and not a man." But later, I thought about it carefully, even if I am not short of ambition, what can I do? The whole society is so good at worshipping gold, people have no faith at all, even if I have a grand plan in my heart, can I come out with a grand plan? At that time, I said to that buddy: Don't fuck up, you are very high, Zhichang will show me, if you can not fall into the big pit of this society, buddy, I will stretch this (thumbs up) to you. He didn't speak anymore after listening, in fact, he was also pretending to be garlic there, everyone understood what this society was like, who was high and who was ambitious, and who was an ascetic. ”

"Why do I think you're getting deeper and deeper?hehe~" Poppy smiled puzzled.

"Yes, I was getting deeper and deeper for a while, I didn't even go to class much, and fortunately I got into gambling, and I was about to fall into a situation from which I could never recover. At this moment, a woman who was brighter than the sun appeared in front of me. ”

"Your girlfriend?"

"Friends, friends, but you can't add a girl, because she's my mother. ”

"Poof~" Poppy was amused by Chen Leilei's expression of pretending to be garlic.

"I told my mother at the time that I felt that I didn't give birth to the life of a 'prince', and I felt bored no matter how hard I tried. My mom looked at me and smiled, and said something that I still remember to this day, and I can still repeat it word for word. ”

Chen Leilei pondered for a moment and said with relief: "At that time, my mother said to me: Lei Lei, do you think people born with disabilities should work hard to live, or lament their fate? Should they fight for their own future, or should they get by in lamentation? I don't think you need to say that you should also know that the former is correct. You're in the same situation as those people, and I'll tell you a story about a little snail......"

"The story ......of the little snail?

"Hehe, don't laugh at my mom for always treating me like a child and always telling me stories. She told me that once upon a time a little snail asked its mother, "Why do we have to carry this hard, heavy shell from birth?"

Its mother said: Because our body has no bone support, we can only crawl, and we can't climb fast, so we need the protection of this shell.

The little snail asked again: Sister Caterpillar has no bones and can't climb fast, so why doesn't she have to carry this hard and heavy shell?

Its mother said: Because the caterpillar sister can turn into a butterfly, the sky will protect her.

The little snail asked again: But the earthworm brother has no bones, can't climb fast, and can't turn into a butterfly, why doesn't he carry this hard and heavy shell?

His mother replied again: Because the earthworm brother will burrow into the earth and the earth will protect him.

When the little snail heard this, he cried and said, "Mother, we are so pitiful, the sky does not protect the earth, and the earth does not protect it."

Its mother smiled and comforted it, saying, "That's why we have a shell!" We don't rely on heaven or earth, we rely on ourselves. ”

Poppy's heart was like an electric touch, and he frowned and slowly pondered.

Chen Leilei continued with emotion Chen's mother's words: "Lei Lei, if you know how to rely on your own strength, then you can feel that the environment you feel bad is actually the most wonderful environment that can allow you to improve your personality." …… No matter how a person comes into this world, whether it is good or bad, he must cultivate his own garden, and whether it is good or bad, he must play the strings of life. As long as you work hard, even if you can't reclaim the countryside like an empire, you will definitely be able to cultivate a wedge garden that makes your heart happy, and even if you can't play the sounds of a fairyland, you will definitely be able to hum a serenade that makes your heart happy. …… You should know that not all people can make meritorious contributions, so not all people must make meritorious contributions in order to realize their own value. I don't tell you anything to contribute to society in order to realize value, these things you don't like to hear, I just want to tell you: smile and stride deeply, take a deep breath and hum a little song, let the troubles and injustices in your heart go to hell, so that in the end you will see the value of your own existence. If you just keep falling in anger, then your life is really worthless. …… Children of your age always like to wonder if this is the time for you to be happy and strive for your dreams. Why do you keep thinking about those boring things...... It's true that there is something wrong with the value orientation of this society, but you can choose not to follow the crowd...... Lei Lei lives with a smile like your mother. ”

Poppy was completely intoxicated by Chen's mother's earnest teachings, and after Chen Leilei finished speaking, she asked Chen Leilei curiously: "Then have you been living with a smile all the time?"

"How to say it, laughing life is laughing life, but you have to add a color word before laughing. Chen Leilei's face was full of evil smiles, not at all like the words that he had just finished saying with such deep meaning.

Poppy glanced at him coquettishly.

Chen Leilei laughed and said: "What I said is true, after listening to my mother's words, I feel that I have to work hard and live with a smile, but I worked hard to study gambling skills, greeted my sister with a smile and finally cultivated a woman's country...... Haha, I think my life is worth living!"

Poppy smiled helplessly, as if letting go of the burden, and sighed with relief: "Listening to your mother's teachings has made me understand a lot, thank you." ”

"That'...... ...... you and Li Sheng?"

"Chen Leilei, I decided with him after thinking about it for a long time, and I don't want to change it anymore. Poppy showed a look of embarrassment but resoluteness on his face, and then said happily: "I think I will work hard in the future, and I will live with a smile." ”

Seeing that he didn't talk for a long time, he still didn't say anything about poppies, Chen Leilei was a little disappointed in his heart, but he never gave up easily on women, glanced at Li Sheng, who was watching the hot band performance in front of the stage, and said lightly: "Actually, Narcissus has already told me before, how did Li Sheng ask you about the conditions, in such a society, you accept this kind of conditions, it is understandable, I respect your choice." But I want to know if you're doing this because you still have him in your heart, or is it just because of the so-called smooth road?"
