Chapter Eighty-Three: Lessons from the Past

Si Fu didn't know that Ji Mingzhen had changed.

His lofty expectations and dreams would not have been told to anyone, because Ji Mingzhe thought that the reason why many people were not worthy of being compared to him was simply because they couldn't communicate.

Now what Ji Mingzhe said happened to confirm this sentence.

Because he actually began to pursue things that were gradually forgotten by the current people, and gradually unable to grasp them, so he sneered at them.

These things that are called life are no longer things.

Because people become impetuous, they start to conquer one qiē, they start to work hard for one very realistic goal after another, and then they don't know why they become empty and overwhelmed again.

In the end, I don't know what I want.

No one can figure out what they want most, because everyone just wants everything.

Ji Mingzhen is the same.

It used to be like that.

Si Fu looked at Ji Mingzhen quietly, then sighed and said, "You'd better not tell anyone else these words." ”

"I'm going to say this to you, and I'm going to say it only once. Ji Mingzhen picked up a napkin and wiped his hands, lowered his head and said, "Telling you is just because I want to say it, I always believed in doing it first and then talking about it, but this kind of thing, it's good to be able to say it first." ”

Si Fu looked at Ji Mingzhe's somewhat clumsy figure, and then found that after he finished talking about his longing with a smile, his whole person had weakened a lot.

This refers to the mind, not the body.

It's as if he's telling his own story, and he's lived all those lives.

Si Fu found this, and was slightly stunned for a moment, followed by a spontaneous relief, but after a while, he became confused again.

The Ji Mingzhe he knew was so high-spirited and empty-eyed.

At the beginning, Ji Mingzhe had one thing to say, two to say, and he would never be vague about anything he wanted to do.

Si Fu still remembered that on the eve of Ji Mingzhe's official entry into the London Embassy, he called him, and Ji Mingzhe's tone on the phone was calm, and he couldn't see the slightest joy.

But Sifu knew that there was a fire in his heart, a fire that had been suppressed by Ji Xing for twenty years.

Sure enough, in the end, he became the youngest full-time counselor since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

He also became the fastest diplomat to be quickly shelved for unknown reasons, and finally reinstated.

These two things didn't add up for a long time, Si Fu didn't know what was going on inside, he only knew that Ji Mingzhe had been alone in London for a long time, in China for a long time, and in the Seoul embassy for half a year.

It can't be that this half a year's life has consumed Ji Mingzhe's impulses.

It would only be London.

It will only be the capital.

Si Fu was sure that something must have happened to Ji Mingzhe, making him no longer as high-spirited as before, which may be a good thing, and for a young man who will definitely become a big man in the future, it is indeed a good thing to encounter more setbacks.

But Ji Mingzhen is not the appearance that Si Fu is willing to see now.

He seems to know a lot of disgusting and despicable things.

Fortunately, Ji Mingzhe actually chatted with him about a girl on this night, about the sweet potatoes he baked back then, and about the boy who had long since disappeared with his memory.

Lin Yuna definitely doesn't remember.

Ji Mingzhen thought so.

"Si Fu" Ji Mingzhen shouted.

"What's wrong?" asked Sifu.

The wind on the riverside was extremely cold, and the fire on the stall was more vigorous, that is, the boss added new charcoal to the stove, and the hot soup on the pot had been added with ingredients and water once, gurgling and bubbling, and the aroma was overflowing.

Ji Mingzhen tightened his coat, looked at the food on the table in a daze, and then said: "I have always been curious about how hard the hearts of the older generation who have fought in the war are. ”

Si Fu frowned and listened quietly.

"They can endure gunshot wounds and knife wounds, their wives are separated, they can endure persecution, they can endure a lot. Ji Mingzhen looked at Si Fu, and his tone was a little empty, "If I can only get to that point if I can endure it so much, I may not have that much ability." ”

"I realized that I was asking for very little. ”

"That's why I'm helping you. ”

Si Fu keenly heard a hint of clues, and was silent for a long time before he said, "But others will only think that you are asking for more things." ”

"I've cared about what other people think of me since I was a child, do I still care what others think of me?"

"Someone will make you care. ”

"Who?"

"Because your surname is Ji. ”

After saying this, Si Fu closed his mouth and stopped talking, Ji Mingzhen supported his chin, slid his palm upwards and rubbed half of his face vigorously, until he was rubbed red, and then laughed: "I can't refute you again." ”

Sifu's face was a little gloomy, and he felt that it was a shame to put his friend in such a dilemma and an atmosphere of isolation.

But there is no way.

Ji Mingzhe has been disciplined for so many years, has been bound for so many years, and has such a big story and experience on his back.

But it has to go step by step, and there is no objection.

If he wants Lin Yun'er.

He had to leave the embassy.

If he leaves the embassy, he will inevitably be punished by the old man in the country.

Countless facts in the past have proved that Ji Xingxu, who is strict and cold to the outside world, will not show mercy to his only grandson.

Si Fu couldn't bear to watch Ji Mingzhen challenge that mountain, even if he pried off a few big stones on that mountain in the end, Qingshan was still Qingshan.

He's bound to be bruised all over his body.

Si Fu opened his mouth and said: "Give up, you don't like Lin Yun'er, you just want to rebel." ”

"I'm past puberty. Ji Mingzhen smiled.

Immediately afterwards, he stood up and suddenly said, "Cui Yixian may have figured out that I asked you about your future plans." ”

Si Fu looked up at Ji Mingzhen and said, "You know what to say, and you don't need me to teach you." ”

"That's just as well. ”

Ji Mingzhen nodded, waved his hand and walked towards the river embankment, Si Fu just wanted to stand up, but was stopped by him: "I'll walk by myself, it's not too far." ”

"You're not going home?" Si Fu shouted behind Ji Mingzhe.

Ji Mingzhen didn't speak, walked quickly, and disappeared into the night.

He talked a lot to Si Fu today, and originally hoped that his friends could approve of his ideas and decisions, but unsurprisingly, Si Fu really spoke out to stop it, and came up with countless bad results.

Both of them were up to the point, and they didn't touch any sensitive topics, but they felt each other's thoughts clearly.

Si Fu said that Ji Mingzhe's idea was too crazy, and he couldn't help it.

Ji Mingzhen didn't feel sentimental, but after listening to Si Fu's words, he had some feelings, and felt that he had thought about things a little simple before, so he had to think about it again.

Think about how to like people without hurting people.

Then how can I help Lin Yun'er, let her study hard, and finally enjoy learning.

Preferably, you can also like yourself.

Thinking of this, Ji Mingzhen suddenly felt a little shy, rubbed his face, and after taking a breath of cold air, he accelerated his pace.

He just wanted to take a walk, and he had eaten a little too much just now, and he was afraid of getting fat.

After all, the embassy is responsible for its appearance, and good-looking people are much stricter in self-restraint than ordinary people, and Ji Mingzhe feels that it is really tiring to be an excellent person.

Otherwise, why does Lin Yun'er refuse to study, that is, he doesn't seek to be motivated.

If Miss Lin Yun'er knew that she was liked by a man and was being disliked at the same time, then I don't know what kind of mood she would have.

Anyway, it will definitely not be good, not scolding people is already an extremely good embodiment of Lin Yuner's personal quality.

So I don't know why Lin Yuna and Cui Xiuying have a very good relationship recently, and the two of them like to sit on the sofa when they have nothing to do, put a bag of potato chips or other snacks in the middle, chat about the day, and talk, but it seems that the atmosphere in the team is becoming more and more prosperous.

It's just that among the nine people who dare to eat unscrupulously like this, Lin Yun'er and Cui Xiuying are the only ones, and the rest of them still care more or less about the huge calories brought by some of this puffed food.

Calories equals fat.

Fat equals death.

Tonight, Lin Yun'er smoothly memorized the vocabulary required by Ji Mingzhe, and lay on the sofa with Cui Xiuying watching TV, intentionally or unintentionally, Cui Xiuying mentioned that she wanted to go home for dinner.

"By the way, my sister told me on the phone that this trip was actually a treat at home. Cui Xiuying swallowed the dried sweet potato in her mouth and said a little vaguely, "It's Counselor Ji who invites." ”

Seeing that Lin Yun'er didn't react much, Cui Xiuying quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and then pretended to be relaxed and said: "I don't know why the family invited him to dinner, but it's not bad to think about going back to improve the food, what do you say Yun'er." ”

Lin Yun'er muttered the content she had just memorized, and her brain suddenly messed up when Cui Xiuying shouted like this, and then she came back to her senses and said, "Sister, you have to be careful of this person." ”

"Why?" Choi so-young wondered.

"No matter why, he is a scourge, you look at me, it is a lesson from the past. Lin Yun'er pointed to her nose and said, "And oh, although I can't say bad things behind other people's backs, I think that Counselor Ji is definitely not an ordinary person." ”

"Of course it's not an ordinary person, let you take the diplomat exam, you don't want to pass it in your life. Cui Xiuying glanced at Lin Yun'er, "Also, what did you say about that word just now, what do you mean?"

Lin Yun'er wanted to say that this was an idiom that she memorized in her spare time, but she probably didn't say it because she thought it was a little showy, and after waving her hand, she muttered: "Why do you react so much when I say bad things about Counselor Ji, sister." ”

There was some grievance in his tone, and I really felt pity.

Cui Xiuying suddenly felt a little weak, looked at Lin Yun'er and said righteously: "Shouldn't it, people teach you to read so seriously and responsibly, you have to be a little grateful." ”

"I know that. Lin Yun'er spread her hands.

"I know you're still speaking ill of him. ”

Lin Yun'er knew that she was wrong, and after sticking out her tongue, she took out a stack of small cards from her back, and after glancing at it, she read something.

Cui Xiuying watched from the side and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"Chinese characters, Counselor Ji helped me note pinyin and fake characters, which is easy to memorize. Lin Yun'er waved the small card in her hand and said with a smile, "Now I'm going to say good things about him, this person is actually quite reliable, anyway, he is reassuring and down-to-earth when he does things, and he does feel that his knowledge reserve has increased a lot recently." ”

Cui Xiuying pursed her lips, thinking that Lin Yun'er, this girl, was unforgiving, and she really knew how to read other people's words in her heart.

A pair of slender legs were exposed to the air like this, and the pair of feet on the sofa swayed, holding the pillow in her arms, looking at Lin Yun'er, Cui Xiuying suddenly had some troubles.

They get along day and night, and nothing happens?

Lin Yun'er is innocent and romantic, but she also has a girl's mind, and she has been arrogant since she was a child because she is beautiful, which is the same as Ji Mingzhe, and that person is a character with his eyes on the sky.

Cui Yixian said this casually, but naturally he had a reason, Cui Xiuying remembered this sentence, because she felt that this sentence was actually very correct to describe Ji Mingzhe.

To put it bluntly, Cui Xiuying is a little unconfident.

And I think it's a little ridiculous.

But once this kind of thing is generated, it is different from fart, and it will be gone after the fart, but the love will brew.

Otherwise, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years.

Pursing her lips, Cui Xiuying felt that she might be a demon, where did she still look domineering now?

That's not good.
