After rebirth, I only date bad girls

Chapter 447 A Man Should Stand Tall and Upright

Inside McDonald's, Liang Can smiled as he looked at Xiao Wen, while Xue Fu sat to the side, glancing back at the children surrounded by the burly men Liang Can had summoned.

"Are you together?" Xue Fu withdrew her gaze and asked softly.

Xiaowen is a pretty girl with delicate features. She is rather thin, and her face is so small that it seems like only her facial features are visible. She has big eyes, but they don't have the clarity that one would expect at her age.

No, kids this age are indeed quite confused. They go to school at six every morning and get out at nine-thirty every day, and they all look like wilted eggplants.

“Yes, yes,” Xiaowen said, bowing her head.

Xue Fu wasn't angry. She continued to ask softly, "Have you been staying with them all these days since you ran away from home?"

"Ah."

"So where do you live?"

“McDonald’s, KFC, and sometimes park benches,” Xiaowen replied.

It seems they are a group of runaways.

Liang Can glanced back at the girls with tattooed arms and thought to himself that these girls had run away from home, and their parents probably didn't even know.

For someone who gets a tattoo at this age, it makes no difference whether they have parents or not.

Liang Can looked at Xiao Wen and asked, "Then what was your purpose in calling Dr. Xue out?"

"You want to hurt her?"

Liang Can's voice was very soft, but as soon as he said that, the towering security supervisor from Qingning Technology behind him instantly stood up and approached Xiaowen.

"No, no, no, no!"

Xiaowen was startled and fell silent, shaking her head repeatedly.

Upon seeing this, the blond-haired boy sitting at the other table slammed his fist on the table and stood up, shouting, "What do you guys want?!"

"Sit down!" one of the burly men guarding them glared at them.

The blond-haired boy immediately sat down dejectedly.

Liang Can smiled, leaned forward slightly, and tilted his head to ask, "I'll ask you one more time, what was your purpose in calling Xue Fu out?"

Xiaowen kept her lips tightly shut, not uttering a word, and looked at Xue Fu pleadingly.

Xue Fu couldn't bear it, so she opened her mouth but chose to remain silent.

At this point, she couldn't refute or stop Liang Can, because Xue Fu knew very well that Liang Can's persistent questioning was correct.

As a doctor, Xue Fu knows how ugly human nature can be, regardless of age.

Even without Liang Can accompanying her, she would still come today, but the location was chosen by Xue Fu. McDonald's is a place that is aboveboard and generally won't be in danger.

Seeing that Xiaowen remained silent, Liang Can chuckled and said, "Go ahead and tell me. I won't laugh at you."

Xue Fu originally thought that Liang Can would threaten Xiao Wen, saying that if she didn't confess, he would send her to the police station or call her parents directly.

But he said he wouldn't laugh at you.
Xiaowen blinked, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "We're so hungry. I used to watch Dr. Xue's lectures on the Qingning APP a lot, and I can tell she's a very gentle older sister."

"Tell me the results," Liang Can interrupted Xiaowen.

"We'd like Dr. Xue to buy us something to eat."

Xue Fu: “.”

This reminded Liang Can of an interesting question: why are all the energetic young men and women so thin?

Because most of them don't go to school, or they have school but don't go, they have nothing to do on weekdays and no money in their pockets, so they can only wander around aimlessly.

When they got hungry while strolling around, a few of them chipped in to buy some food.

But don't look down on these young men. Even if they don't have any money in their pockets, they can summon five or six young women with just one phone call.

Although my sister is uneducated, she's still incredibly young and naive.

They all looked somewhat malnourished.

Liang Can stared at Xiaowen for a long time, making Xiaowen feel uneasy all over, and she almost buried her head in her chest.

After a while, Liang Can turned to the side and glanced at the blond-haired boy and the remaining girls who were about the same age as Xiaowen.

"Manager Zhang, go buy them a few set meals and a few extra hamburgers," Liang Can instructed.

The security supervisor from Qingning Technology nodded, went to the front desk and bought several combo meals, ordering the largest portion of fries.

Give one portion to Xiaowen first, then distribute the rest to the remaining people.

"Eat up! What are you standing there for?" Manager Zhang scolded the bewildered teenagers impatiently. "I really don't know what you're thinking. You're not studying properly, and you're always doing nothing right. If you were my daughters, I'd send you to Africa!"

The group exchanged glances, quickly picked up their hamburgers, unwrapped them, and began to wolf them down.

Over here, Xue Fu handed Xiao Wen a hamburger and said softly, "Eat first, we'll talk after you finish."

Xiaowen didn't dare to answer, and glanced timidly at Liang Can.

The man in front of me was so handsome and young, yet he gave off an unfathomable feeling. After being stared at by him, I felt cold sweat running down my back.

"Eat," Liang Can said casually.

Xiaowen then took the hamburger, took a small bite, and then began to eat it in big mouthfuls. After choking, she hurriedly picked up a Coke and sipped it a few times before burying her head in her food again.

Seeing this, Xue Fu was both angry and distressed, and asked, "How long has it been since you had a proper meal?"

Xiaowen cautiously looked up, sauce still sticking to the corner of her mouth: "I haven't had a proper meal since I left home."

Liang Can asked Xue Fu, "Do you know why she ran away from home?"

Xue Fu glanced at Xiao Wen and sighed softly.

"My parents are getting a divorce. They argue and fight at home every day. I couldn't take it anymore, so I ran away," Xiaowen said.

Liang Can nodded slightly and beckoned to Xiaowen: "Put the hamburger down."

Xiaowen immediately put down the hamburger and sat up straight.

“You’re lucky, not because you ran into Dr. Xue and me, but because your bunch of cronies aren’t all that despicable.” Liang Can stared at Xiaowen and said, word by word, “If they were bad enough, they would have taken you to a bar, found a rich guy to hang out with in his booth, gotten you drunk, and then you should be able to guess what would happen.”

"Then, your older brother will give you some money so you can have a few good meals. If things continue along this path, you'll end up working in bars and KTVs, taking birth control pills like calcium supplements."

Xiaowen was stunned.

Liang Can smiled and continued, "Of course, this is a rather bad outcome. If things continue like this, you will drop out of school, work, find a boyfriend like that blond guy, either get married very early, or date more than a dozen boyfriends before getting married, and then have a child like you, repeating your life."

"This is your best way out." Liang Can tapped the table.

Many young women in the underworld drop out of school at a young age to make a living, which, frankly speaking, is a matter of mindset.

If parents have problems and their children also give up on themselves, the outcome will be as Liang Can said.

"Did you attend a vocational high school or a regular high school?" Liang Can suddenly asked.

Xiaowen quickly replied, "A regular high school, but a really bad one."

Liang Can looked at Xue Fu: "Are you going to help her?"

Xue Fu nodded: "Help, she didn't do it on purpose."

indeed.

Liang Can stood up and said to Xiaowen, "Take the food with you and come with us."

Xiaowen hurriedly got up, stuffing a hamburger into her mouth while grabbing some fries and chicken nuggets, and then walked out of McDonald's.

Seeing this, the other companions hurriedly tried to follow.

"Stand still. After you finish eating, go do whatever you need to do." After Liang Can finished speaking, the remaining security personnel stopped them.

Liang Can already disliked these silly kids, and if it weren't for Xue Fu's kindness, he wouldn't even bother to glance at these unfortunate children.

The harsh reality is that, apart from Xiaowen, the remaining children's lives will likely remain the same. Perhaps some of them will make money in the future short video era, but the chances are extremely slim.

Do you really think anyone can make money off of their life in the era of short videos?
Let me call out Manjiao again, and those so-called "Jiba Paipaiqi Family" and "Qinghai Shake Social Shake" groups. How many ignorant teenagers are cheering and pledging their loyalty in the comments, begging to join?

Reading is not the only way out, but without reading, you have almost no way out.

Using extremely rare isolated cases as examples is pure idiocy.

Driving, Liang Can brought Xue Fu and Xiao Wen to Zhejiang University.

"Do you know this place?" Liang Can turned around and asked Xiaowen in the back row.

Xiaowen glanced at the main gate of Zhejiang University and nodded: "Of course I know it, who doesn't know Zhejiang University?"

"What's the use of knowing? Can you even get in?" Liang Can sneered.

Xiaowen listened and whispered, "I definitely can't get in. You must be from Zhejiang University, right? You look like someone who's super rich and super capable."

Liang Can: “.”

“This is Dr. Xue’s alma mater,” Liang Can added.

Liang Can parked the car at the entrance, spoke a few words to the security guard at the guard booth, and the guard immediately picked up the remote control and raised the barrier.

First stop: the library.

At this time, the library at Zhejiang University was still brightly lit because final exams were approaching.

Looking at the huge crowd inside the hall, almost all of them were engrossed in studying at their desks.

Xiaowen stuffed a few fries into her mouth, her eyes glazing over.

Liang Can glanced at her and said calmly, "See? People who are more talented than you work even harder than you."

Xiaowen looked at Liang Can and said, "Then there's no point in me trying anymore."

Liang Can pointed at Xiaowen and said to Xue Fu, "This child is beyond saving, let's send her to the police station."

Xue Fu quickly pressed Liang Can's hand down and said softly to Xiao Wen, "People always compare themselves to themselves. You may not be able to get into Zhejiang University, but if you can get into an ordinary undergraduate university, you will be ahead of yourself now."

"It's highly likely that you'll never become extremely wealthy in your life, but at least you'll be able to work and live a normal life."

That statement is perfectly valid today.

After all, it's not as frilly as it will be 10 years from now.

"The significance of going to university is not actually that."

Xue Fu took Xiao Wen's hand and left the library, heading towards the area where student clubs gathered.

Although it was nearing the end of the semester, many students were still organizing various activities. Xiaowen was somewhat surprised to see these high-achieving students.

"Students at Zhejiang University play video games and can also breakdance?"

"Of course, many people have won awards," Xue Fu said with a smile.

Xiaowen nodded with her mouth slightly open. She discovered that there were even etiquette teachers here who taught girls how to do makeup, explaining various makeup styles to students from the modeling team and the traditional Chinese style club.

"These are not unique to Zhejiang University; any slightly better university is like this."

Xue Fu squeezed Xiao Wen's hand and said softly, "Students from Zhejiang University also go to bars, go to KTVs in groups, stay out all night and wander the streets, and drink with their friends until they are completely drunk."

"What I mean is that those so-called outrageous and individualistic behaviors that you yearn for and expect now are things that the dull boys in your eyes who only know how to study and are considered good girls would do."

"The difference is that when they do this, they call it enjoying life, while when you do it, you call it wasting your youth."

Xiaowen stood silently in front of a classroom, watching the graceful girls rehearsing their dance.

Xue Fu looked at Liang Can, smiled lightly, and said sincerely, "Liang Can, you were truly a pillar of strength tonight."

Liang Can, hands in his pockets, said arrogantly, "It's too tiring to stand tall and upright. I'll support you, that's enough."

This means, I will protect you.

Judging from Xue Fu's shy and angry expression, she had clearly misunderstood.

Hate it.
