Chapter 123: Bonnie

"Moment" is a concept that people use to denote a very ephemeral time.

There is such a record in the "Sangha Law": "A moment is a thought, twenty thoughts are a moment, twenty moments are a snap of a finger, twenty snaps of a finger is a pre-lu, twenty pre-is a moment, and one day and one night have thirty pre-suffice." If the specific time is calculated from this, then there are 4.8 million "moments" in 24 hours of a day and a night, and if you calculate carefully, there are 86,400 seconds in a day and night, so a "moment" is 0.018 seconds.

"In a flash", in the blink of an eye, in this fleeting time, countless memories engraved in the depths of his mind surged into Li Zheng's heart in an instant.

"Hey, Chris, come over here and introduce you to a beautiful woman. This is the famous beauty Bonnie of the medical school - Bonnie.Juliana.Wilianms. Bonnie is a member of the American Red Cross and volunteers around the world every year during the holidays, and you've probably heard of her as a celebrity at our school. ”

"Hey, hello, just call me Bonnie. I know you, Krystian Lee, heard Spark say that you wrote the piece that your band was singing on stage. The songs are very good, very beautiful. ”

"Thank you. You can just call me Chris like Spark. ”

"Okay Chris. I heard that you play the piano well, I have a little favor I would like to ask you to help, I wonder if you have time?"

"You speak first. ”

"That's right. Our church musicians have a delay this weekend and need to take time off, and I think if you have time, I'd like to ask you to make a cameo appearance as a musician in the church this weekend. ”

"Well, okay, no problem. ”

…………

"Chris, do you have time? We've got a free clinic in New York this weekend, we're short on staff, I'd like to ask you to help me if you have time. ”

"I'm sorry. I have work in the afternoon. I have piano playing at the restaurant where I work. ”

"Oh, that's right. By the way, where is the restaurant where you work in New York? After the event, if I still have time, I'll go to you. ”

“XXXXX”

"That's good. I made a note of it. We'll see you later. ”

…………

"Hey, Chris, are you free?"

“…… Bonnie, I'd like to ask, do you like me? I'm sorry I asked so bluntly, but I feel like you've been making excuses for asking me out all this time, and I'm sorry if I misunderstood. ”

"Uh...... Ha ha...... You found out. Actually, I've always wanted to confess directly, but it always doesn't seem like there's a good opportunity. Since you found out for yourself, then I'll confess. Chris, I like you a lot, and I hope that our personal relationship can go further and give both of us a chance to get to know each other. What do you think?"

…………

"Bonnie, why do you like me?"

"Uh, why do you ask?"

"After being exposed to this period of time, you should know that I am not a selfless person. I'm just an ordinary person with the desires of ordinary people and the selfishness of ordinary people. I can't be as selfless as you are to help others, without asking for anything in return, without asking for any fame or fortune, and spending a lot of time on those in need. You have a noble heart, but I am just a mortal. ”

"Chris, before I give me the answer, I'd like to tell you something that happened to me personally.

About five months ago, I was volunteering at a hospital in New York. At that time, the hospital received an emergency call that there was a traffic accident on a street in New York, and a child was stuck between vehicles, unable to move, and needed emergency rescue. The hospital was receiving many patients from another fire accident at the time, and there were not enough nurses, so I was asked to follow the doctors to the scene of the accident.

After arriving at the scene, we found that due to the child's massive blood loss, his life was in danger, and he needed on-site surgery and immediate blood transfusion, but the blood bags we brought were seriously insufficient, and the hospital was mobilized and delayed, which may affect the rescue. We asked for help from the onlookers, but when they learned that the child was living with HIV, many flinched and hesitated, and only one Asian stood up without hesitation.

Chris, I think you should know who that Asian guy is?"

"It's just a blood transfusion, and there are no other risks, and what I do is something that other people will do, and it's not commendable. ”

"But at the time, when everyone else was holding back, you were the only one who stepped up. ”

"As I said, I'm just a layman. I came across it by chance, and I don't mind helping others as much as I can. But I don't do it deliberately, I'm not really a good person like you. ”

"What is a good person, is helping those in need a good person?

So many Hollywood stars who have rotten private lives, drugs, alcohol, and beatings have also done a lot of charity, but are they all good people?

Doing it deliberately and doing it as you like, two different ways, can better reflect a person's inner quality.

Yes, I have helped many people, and according to you, I should be considered a 'good person'. But I don't want to be a good person for the sake of being a good person, but to be a good person, which can make me feel at peace and make me feel more meaningful in life. I'm helping others, but from another point of view, I'm still doing it for myself. You think my heart is noble, but what can I be nobler than you?"

"It's a different situation......"

"Chris, I like you precisely because you're not doing it on purpose, you're just doing what you think you should do. In this respect, you are more noble than I am. Of course, after getting in touch with each other, I like you even more. A boyfriend who is handsome, has a high IQ, and can write songs and play various musical instruments, do you think such a person is not worthy of my liking?"

…………

"Chris, have you ever thought about how you're going to spend your life?"

"I used to think about it, and now I ...... I don't know. ”

"Why?"

"Because there's no longer anything I want to strive for. ”

"Chris, do you know why I want to help people?—— I don't want to live just to live. People who know what they want and work hard for it are the happiest. People are not afraid of the hardships of life, but of the dazed life. To live and what to live for is the biggest difference between a person's essence. I know you're only temporarily lost, but where the road is, you've always been clear in your heart. ”

…………

"Chris, I want to go to Africa after graduation, shall we go together?"

“……”

…………

After the thunder outside, the rain poured down.

The last scene of meeting the girl in my memory is like this sudden rainstorm, which hits my heart in an instant.

"Chris, I want to go to Africa after graduation, shall we go together?"

"Chris, I want to go to Africa after graduation, shall we go together?"

"Chris, I want to go to Africa after graduation, shall we go together?"

……

The heavy rain was "roaring", and the four fields were noisy, but only this sentence echoed repeatedly in Li Zheng's mind.

"Chris, I want to go to Africa after graduation, shall we go together?"
