Chapter 81: The Lonely Firefly
Cheng Mo ruthlessly told the truth about interpersonal relationships, which made Yan Yitong a little difficult to accept, and she also understood that no matter what kind of interpersonal relationship she was in, the stronger party must have the right to speak, such as the relationship between her and her brother......
But she still couldn't accept this cold reality, she still thought that people were equal to each other, because she carefully replied to every admirer who wanted to add her as a friend, telling them that her friend position was full, although it was just a white lie, but she didn't feel that she was in a strong position and didn't need to explain to those who cared about her with good intentions.....
Yan Yitong, who was in such a mood, was quite unhappy, and she said very dissatisfied: "But you should know that there are people who care about you, people who care about you! Can't you think about them? You also need friends, right?"
Cheng Mo moved his gaze from the splashing fountain back to the slender Yan Yitong, the two of them were about the same height, and when they looked at each other, they could see the reflection in their pupils through the resin lenses, and he said coldly: "I don't need to have the right to speak, and I don't expect others to understand, if a person can't fully understand himself, how can he understand others?
Yan Yitong knew that Cheng Mo was reminding herself to keep her distance from him, and for the first time she felt such an unkind rejection, she let go of the hand holding Cheng Mo's sleeve, and said a little angrily: "Cheng Mo, you will have no friends like this!"
If the sun wasn't so dazzling, Cheng Mo should be able to see green smoke curling upwards from Yan Yitong's unkempt hair.
Cheng Mo responded very indifferently: "People live for the sake of living, not for anything other than living, so friends are such things as only those who need them, but I don't need such things as friends." ”
After speaking, he turned around directly, turning into a slightly blank and hard back in Yan Yitong's sight.
Yan Yitong opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she couldn't say it after all, and then it turned into a matchstick that was blown up by gritting her teeth, burning under the magnifying glass, her head was on fire, her torso was boiling, and she felt dizzy.
She felt that her brain was in a state of failure, and it was obvious that Cheng Mo had a complete set of his own social logic, although his views were not wrong at all, and he was completely subverting his impression of him, making her feel that she was making a fool when she talked to him.
But Yan Yitong just thinks that this boy is as cool as his brother.
They live in their own world, they don't care what others think, and they follow their principles until they enter a new phase in life.
Cheng Mo knows that in the eyes of others, he may be naïve and selfish, but he thinks that as long as he can persevere to the end, then he is right. If you want to change just because of other people's expectations or disdain, that kind of thing can neither be called the original intention nor the true self.
Speaking of which, the reason why Cheng Mo can so accurately distinguish who is the killer and who is the policeman is not only because of the deduction method, but also because he can read people's micro-expressions.
In fact, when Cheng Mo entered school at the age of seven, he paid special attention to other people's body language.
When he was a child, he was very fond of observing the people around him, and this kind of observation had no specific purpose, it was just an instinct to enter an unfamiliar environment, not to collect some kind of information, but Cheng Mo liked to interpret what was hidden behind what he saw.
Just like reading a book, it is important to understand the author's deeper meaning through the superficial words.
Cheng Mo observed out of a self-protective instinct, and what impressed him was the body language of the children who welcomed him to join them in playing. At this time, their feet will quickly move towards him to welcome him, and this is the same in terms of body language expression, whether it is an adult or a child.
He soon learned how to distinguish a sincere smile from a fake one, and when people smirk, the muscles around the eyes do not move, only the mouth moves......
In the tireless observation, Cheng Mo quickly had the skills to read others, not to mention children, even those defenseless adults, there were no lies to tell in his eyes.
But for Cheng Mo, being able to explain everyone's subtle expressions and expose everyone's lies makes life extremely painful.
Because in this world, lies make contradictions less acute, lies make difficult relationships peaceful, lies mend the seams between the truths, maintain fragile relationships between people, and let the cracks be covered.
Most of the time the truth is always hard to accept, so there are times when people prefer to believe lies.
Conveying the truth and exposing lies is a painful thing, so Cheng Mo often keeps his mouth shut and remains silent in front of the truth.
For example, playing a killing game, he pretended to be confused, everyone was happy, everyone could be satisfied, he played seriously, everyone didn't have to play, and he had to question him, whether Cheng Mo explained it or not, the result was that he was excluded.
Therefore, it makes no sense for Cheng Mo to explain this kind of thing.
What's more, he understands that Du Leng's welcome to him is false, he understands that Du Leng's circle is not welcome to his joining, he understands that friendship is time-sensitive and space*********** deepening friendship must continue to expose his depth and breadth, and even let the other party know his weaknesses, which will give others the opportunity and possibility to hurt himself, he hates such a dangerous relationship.
So solitude means being strong, and being lonely means being invulnerable.
This is also the reason why Cheng Mo has been lonely.
The sun at five o'clock stretched Cheng Mo's back, casting a lonely shadow on the smooth steaming asphalt pavement, and he crossed the fountain with steady steps, a dozen luxury cars parked on either side, green tree shadows swaying in the breeze under the white clouds in the distance, and a black and silver Rolls-Royce slid out of the side of the road leading to the gate.
Reflecting the dazzling light of luxury.
Cheng Mo walked diagonally, completely giving way to the middle road, but he didn't expect the Rolls-Royce to come over reluctantly, he turned his head to look at the noble vehicle that made ordinary people unable to take their eyes off.
The mirror-like body and glass clearly reflected his face.
Thinking that the carrier was so eye-catching and noticeable, Cheng Mo was extremely glad that he looked so ordinary.
Rolls-Royce moved forward slowly, and then the car window with his side face on it fell silently, revealing Xie Minyun's dangerous face.
The more beautiful things are, the greater the danger they contain, so Xie Minyun is extremely dangerous.
Xie Minyun turned his head to look at Cheng Mo, who was shining in the slanting sun, and said flatly, "Do you need me to send you?"
