Chapter 370: 370
Zheng Zhifei was silent for a while and tossed a few stones down the cliff . Chen Shi took advantage of the gap in the story and said, "I noticed that you speak like a city person . "
"Uncle, do you know what my favorite type of entertainment is?"
"I’m guessing . . . Watching TV?"
"That's right! When I came to the city, I found a place to work . I waited tables, collected sewage water, and handed out leaflets . I didn't have bad hobbies and didn't spend a lot of money . The only entertainment I had was watching TV . I love watching all kinds of programs . I love watching the life of the people in the city . Everything on TV was better than reality . When I got my first paycheck, I went to find her . I saw her walking with a few girls and eating ice cream, talking about topics that I couldn't understand . I didn't dare come forward to talk to her . I was wearing tattered clothes and stood like a beggar in front of the princess . I didn't have the courage . ”
"But, I often followed her and she never even found out . Finally, I gathered my courage and bought clean clothes to knock on the door of her house . When I saw Father Li, I said timidly, 'I'm looking for Li Mengran!’ Father Li answered me coldly, saying she was having a nap before closing the door . "
Chen Shi said, "He may have thought of you as her classmate . "
Zheng Zhifei shook his head stubbornly . "He just doesn't want to recognize me! It must be like that! I often stood at the bottom of that building and looked up . I thought that such a tall building required countless yuan to build and that it was also the distance between me and her . . . I spent year after year in the city, and I also had a girlfriend for some time . She was a rural woman like me . She was short-sighted and a woman who was very realistic and annoying . That’s why we broke up . ”
"Uncle, maybe you can't feel it . There is an invisible wall in the city that separates us from you . We can only eat boxed lunches in the corner and watch the city’s beauty, but we will never belong there . . . "
Chen Shi interrupted him and said, "The people in the city are just as indifferent and cold to the other people in the city . The invisible wall you talked about exists everywhere . "
Zheng Zhifei continued, "One night, I followed her and saw her walking with a boy . They laughed and joked . Later, the boy suddenly started touching her . I walked over angrily and beat the boy! I said to her, 'Li Mengran, do you remember me?', but she just looked at me in fear and ran away . I didn't believe she didn't remember me and ran outside her house . I heard her crying and her father yelled loudly, ‘You’re not allowed to acquaint yourself with those people!' She said in response, 'I hate him . He took the initiative to find me!' My heart turned cold . I didn’t know how I got downstairs . . . "
"I think you misunderstood . She was talking about Gao Xiang . That is, the boy who tried having his way with her . She hid from you not because she was afraid of you . The first reaction for a young girl who encountered something like that is to flee . "
"It’s not like that!" Zheng Zhifei shouted . "She looked at me for a long time but ran away . She must remember me, but she didn’t want to recognize me . In the eyes of her and her father, I was just like a smelly bug . They don’t want to look at me!"
Chen Shi sighed . Due to his strong inferiority complex, the child had such a misunderstanding .
Perhaps he had realized this misunderstanding in his subconsciousness, but this misunderstanding was the fuse that killed Li Mengran, so he was unwilling to admit it . If it was acknowledged, the killing would have been all for naught .
This was his self-esteem looking for a cloth to cover his shame for himself . However, Chen Shi didn’t want to point that out . It wasn’t a good idea to drive a murderer crazy in this situation .
