Chapter 1140: The Drawbridge Effect
Initial results have been achieved in supporting the construction of the disaster-stricken areas.
After completing the farm work they could, the next step for the volunteers was to help the victims rebuild their houses that had collapsed in the floods.
The building materials are fully equipped, and the scaffolding is also erected in style.
Moliangcheng's meaning is to let Su Shi'an continue to be the supervisor and command everyone to work. Judging by his performance in the past few days, he is more than capable of doing it.
However, when everyone picked up their tools and returned to their places, Su Shi'an just stared straight at the scaffolding in front of him.
Scenes of memories, like a film of light playing extremely fast, alternately hit in an instant. He only felt dizziness in his head, time was out of place, he couldn't hear the other people's voices and inquiries clearly, only his brain was still buzzing, as if this was the only sound in the whole world.
“…… I can't. In the end, in the expectant eyes of everyone, he just said these words with difficulty.
Without an explanation, he left everyone behind and turned to leave.
……
Su Shi'an walked fast, he just wanted to leave all the memories that haunted him behind, without thinking about it or facing it again.
As for what others will think...... He never really thought that he was participating in this show to wash his name, so he didn't need to pander to anyone's eyes.
It was an accident that the public had changed their perception of themselves. But even if they change their outlook again tomorrow when the show airs, it will just bring everything back to square one. To put it bluntly, he doesn't care, and it's not uncommon.
I don't know when, there was an extra figure behind him.
Jian Zhiheng, the first one to catch up was really him.
"I'm really not in the mood to listen to you talk about those big truths today, so you can rest. Su Shi'an didn't look back, only sent him away irritably.
Jian Zhiheng walked up step by step, "I don't make a big sense, so it's okay to talk to you." What the hell is going on, why is there a sudden strike?"
"Everyone's impression of you has finally improved, and they are looking forward to your performance today. Seeing that he didn't answer, Jian Zhiheng was kind and seductive, "This is a scene at this time, but it will disappoint the audience." ”
Su Shi'an's face sank, and he almost vented his shot: "I don't care, I don't care about them!"
"Then what do you care about?" Jian Zhiheng took the opportunity to ask.
There was silence.
Only the river not far away, still reverberating with rhythmic crackling sounds.
“…… I hate scaffolding. Finally, Su Shi'an spoke as if talking to himself.
When he sees the scaffolding, the workers who climb up and down under the scorching sun, he thinks of his father. And then the feeling of powerlessness that is hard to get rid of will also be entangled.
Hearing such a reason, Jian Zhiheng couldn't help laughing: "I can understand that you hate a person and a profession, but there's no need to hate even scaffolding, right?"
Su Shi'an frowned, and looked away again angrily.
Indeed, scaffolding is not fatal, and it is not the cause of the case. On the contrary, it is still a job bowl, which has fed their whole family for many years.
But anger is called anger precisely because it has no reason. As long as it is on the verge of misfortune, even if it is just a stone or a small grass, it can be the object of anger.
Many times, he also secretly thought that if his father didn't do this job, if there was no such profession in the world, then he wouldn't have met that black-hearted boss, wouldn't have been owed wages, and wouldn't have everything that happened next......
So, he just hates this profession, hates scaffolding, and has no reason!
After a long time, Jian Zhiheng said with feelings:
"You're really similar to Linden. He also once felt that his father was ...... because he was a fast catcher What happened was that the profession of catching fast took away his father, so he would rather abandon his childhood dream and escape from this profession. ”
"But in reality, no profession is completely safe, but no matter how dangerous the work is, someone needs to do it. It is precisely because of such a group of people who are not afraid of life and death to go to the front line of disasters that the normal operation of the whole society is guaranteed. ”
Su Shi'an's eyes flashed with disgust several times. He was really about to vomit when he heard these high-sounding truths, but he didn't know why he never interrupted.
Behind him, Jian Zhiheng was still talking.
"It's not fatal. What really took away the arrest was his most simple sense of justice. ”
If he didn't have this sense of justice, he could choose to go along with the criminals, or he could choose to protect himself in times of crisis, but he didn't. He chose to protect the safety of the people, fight the most dangerous criminals to the end, and give up hope to his boss at the last moment. ”
His sense of justice made him leave us and his beloved son, but it is precisely because of his sense of justice that he has been remembered by society and praised for so many years.
Su Shi'an finally sneered, half-turned around, and looked sarcastic: "How many years he has been praised, how many years has my father been scolded, it's really fair." ”
"So, the only person who can save your father's reputation right now is you. Jian Zhiheng said without giving in, "Although, maybe he really left you with the worst starting point, as long as you are determined, you can still start from the lowest point and climb higher than everyone else." ”
"In the past, when people mentioned you, they thought that you were the son of the main culprit back then, and you were ashamed of your father. So, if one day, you are successful and you are recognized by everyone, and in the future, when others mention your father, they will only think that he is the father of a successful person. Can you make your father proud of you?"
Looking at Jian Zhiheng's sincere gaze, for a while, Su Shi'an sneered, lowered his eyes, and gently rubbed his faintly painful forehead.
"You've poured a belly of rancid chicken soup again, Our Lady Jane. ”
"Why do you have to go back?
Jian Zhiheng could see that he could have this kind of reaction, which was actually half persuaded.
"If you're just tired and want to take a break, then I'm not going to stop it. But if you have a knot in your heart that you haven't untied, I'm going to have to help you untie it. At this, he also laughed, "Like you said, I have the disease of the Virgin." ”
Su Shi'an glared at him angrily and amusefully. At this time, he suddenly felt a little sympathetic to Guan Linden. With such a good friend, I don't even have the opportunity to worry alone. He stares at you all day long, ready to warm you with his sunny smile...... Scold.
"Well, I'm still tired and I want to rest. After a deliberate provocation, he sat down in a big way.
"Hey, you're enough......" Jian Zhiheng couldn't laugh or cry.
Between the two pulling, the atmosphere was already quietly harmonious.
Later, Su Shian went back to work.
In order to train himself, Guan Lin offered to be another supervisor.
In addition to the daily arrest of criminals, it is sometimes necessary to go to the disaster area to guide the rescue work. Now that you have determined the path you want to take in the future, this is a good opportunity to exercise.
Mo Liangcheng naturally agreed. He loves to see these volunteers progress day by day, follow the path they aspire to, and shine in their respective fields. Looking at them, it is as if my own hope is also continuing in them.
After a long day's work, Su Shi'an and Guan Lin still disagreed, and there were many disagreements in the command, but they suffered the volunteers who were commanded by them.
Fortunately, there is also a cute pet white rabbit. When you look at it when you're tired, even your mood improves. Overall, the whole process was quite easy and enjoyable.
The boys are working on scaffolding, and the girls have a much lighter task. They basically help the boys, handing them a tool from time to time, getting a bottle of water, and so on. When you don't need them, you can sit on the ridge and chat.
"I asked him for you. Shen Antong glanced at Su Shi'an and sat down beside Jin Siqi.
"He said he didn't want to be in a relationship, but I think it's just an excuse. ”
"I don't want to talk about it anymore, he hasn't been fighting with other girls during this time. Last time, we dispel the fun.,I've seen the account that often plays with him.,The ID is a pattern of three peach petals.,It's definitely a girl.。 I guess I don't have a lot of chats. ”
"Any rejection that gives a reason is fake, and in the final analysis, it's not that he doesn't want to be in a relationship, maybe he just doesn't like you. ”
Jin Siqi crossed his hands gently, sorrow and confusion intertwined in his eyes. After a while, she seemed to have finally grasped a glimmer of life, and said busily:
"If it's just playing games together...... Maybe it's just an ordinary friend? Didn't he play with us last time?"
"I can't help it if you think so. Shen Antong shrugged his shoulders, and he didn't know if he was talking about Jin Siqi or mocking himself, "When girls want to deceive themselves, their brain replenishment ability is always endless." ”
"Isn't there such a saying, if you need to guess whether a person likes you or not, then you don't have to guess, he definitely doesn't like you. ”
"So," she sighed faintly, propping her chin lightly, "I might be about to give up." ”
Jin Siqi was taken aback, and he couldn't even care about his emotional problems for a while, and said anxiously: "You want to give up the Blood Skeleton? But, haven't you liked him for a long time? Won't you be unwilling?"
Shen Antong smiled bitterly: "It's unwilling, but what can it be." Because I was hurt in my relationship and was unwilling, I threw myself into it without hesitation, and then suffered more damage?"
"After getting along for so long, I still can't see through him at all. As she spoke, her expression became more and more painful. Those anxious and sleepless nights, those uncertain thoughts, are also clear in her mind again.
"I need to guess everything he does, what he's thinking, whether he cares about me at all...... I racked my brains to find all sorts of interesting things to tell him, and he either didn't reply, or he just said a word, and it was so cold that my heart was cold. ”
"Think about it," Shen Antong shook his head with a self-denied sigh, "I am a person he is not interested in, and my topic is also something he is not interested in, what do you want him to reply to me?"
"I'm also a girl......" she bit her lip and tried her best to hold back the sourness in her eyes, "I also want to be cared for and loved, and I also hope that the feelings I give can be reciprocated." I also want to take my lover's hand to go shopping, I want to show affection with him on a public platform, and I want someone to spend with me on every festival. But with him, it's all just a luxury. ”
"I also believe that he is bent on pursuing the strong line, and has no intention of falling in love. Okay, I'll wait for him...... I can wait for him for three or five years, and I can wait for him for ten or eight years, but what about a hundred years and a thousand years? I can't exhaust all my youth for a person who refuses to turn back. ”
The only thing that can attract him to chase is the strong. If he is a strong enough girl, he can keep up with him, and maybe at that time, he will pay more attention to himself...... It's like Mo Gucheng and Sister Liang.
But...... I can't do it myself, no matter how hard I try, I can't become stronger than him. And it is impossible for him to give up his dreams, be by his side, and be a gentle and considerate boyfriend.
Neither of them can be what the other wants them to be.
This is the chasm that separates them, and it can never be crossed. After thinking about this, it seems to be relieved.
"Have you ever heard of the drawbridge effect?" Shen Antong took a deep breath and tried to pull a smile again, "That is, when a person walks across the drawbridge, she can't tell whether her heartbeat is racing because of the drawbridge itself or because of the person she met head-on." Therefore, she may misunderstand this normal physiological reaction as love. ”
"If you think about it, maybe I didn't like him from the beginning...... Because we met in that dark training class, there, every step of the way, every step of the way, life would be in danger at any time. And he is the only one who can lead us, giving us an unparalleled sense of security...... Perhaps, in fact, I just mistook that sense of security, that feeling of having to rely on him, for love......"
Such a statement, of course, is just self-deception. But if she wants to give up someone she has liked for so long, if she can't find a reason that is enough to convince herself, she really can't do it.
"I think I'll follow my heart and like him for a while, until I really can't continue, and I'll let it go...... However, my view of love will not change, I will only choose the person I love to be with, but no one has ever said that the person I love can only be him, right?"
"What about you, do you have to wait any longer?" After straightening up her mood, she asked Jin Siqi again.
"I ...... I think so. Jin Siqi nodded a little flusteredly, "Anyway, I have long been prepared not to fall in love for the rest of my life and not to marry for the rest of my life." It's rare to have someone who can make me like it, even if it's disappointing in the end, that's okay......"
"Because, I can afford to wait. ”
