A sudden warmth enveloped my back, shielding me from the chill of the night, and Ying Sheng's gentle voice rang out along with this warmth:
"Have you noticed? The world is still the same."
Thoughts arise and fade, but they are nothing more than a wisp of dust. As the saying goes, a gentleman judges by actions, not by intentions. That's all there is to it.
Did you really think that way before?
Perhaps most of them were led astray by me.
There's nothing I can do; you're such a fool, unable to recognize your own heart.
Ugh……
Honestly, you're so naive it's unbearable to look at. I feel like I could lie to you for a lifetime if I wanted to, and even if I sold you out, you'd still help me count the money.
However, this at least confirms some things.
That's because of your childhood experiences. You do indeed harbor a lot of anxiety, fear, and inferiority in your heart. They follow you like a shadow, preventing you from being truly free.
"I'd like to help you get rid of them, is that alright?"
Xiaolan remained silent for a long time, then gently shook her head:
"not like this."
"what is that?"
"Yes, Mizuki-kun, I beg you, please help me."
The voice trembled so much, yet it seemed to contain a breath of new life and transformation.
Ying Sheng smiled gently and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"Okay, I agree."
Chapter 81 The Woman Who Almost Got Destroyed - Eri Kisaki!
He made some grandiose and unfounded statements, but ultimately the issue must be addressed in concrete terms.
Ying Sheng asked, "Can we confirm our target now?"
Xiaolan nodded emphatically: "As long as Mom and Dad are happy, that's enough."
"Alright. To achieve this goal, we first need to clearly define what happiness is."
"Ah?"
Xiaolan had lost count of how many times she had looked bewildered, and she really wanted to ask Yingsheng: Are you serious?
But her previous experiences had already shown her that when facing Ying Sheng, whose level of thinking was far superior to hers, the problem was probably with herself, so...
Xiaolan pondered for a moment, a hint of complexity in her eyes:
"Does Shuiyue mean that, rather than forcibly bringing Mom and Dad back together, their current separation is actually more suitable for them and makes them happier?"
"Bingo!"
Ying Sheng said, "You are their daughter, so the relationship is indeed close enough, but you are not the person directly involved."
Zi Feiyu, know the joy of fish?
Take a look at the details you mentioned before, especially the comparison of Attorney Fei's life before and after several key life milestones. I think this is very helpful for you.
At Teitan High School, Attorney Kisaki was exceptionally beautiful and talented, admired by everyone and known as the "Queen of Teitan." She readily gave up her guaranteed admission to Harvard University, easily gaining admission to the highly competitive Faculty of Law at the University of Tokyo with a perfect score.
It's no exaggeration to call them the chosen ones.
And what happened after she married Mr. Mori?
First, she was given her husband's surname, and people began to call her Mrs. Mori instead of Attorney Kisaki.
Moreover, you mentioned that your mother was a full-time housewife at that time, and your father, due to financial reasons, worked part-time as a tutor in addition to being a policeman to supplement the family income.
I don't know how much you know about full-time housewives, but you've probably seen them in movies and TV shows. Their daily lives are ridiculously simple.
In general:
She gets up early to cook, says goodbye to her working husband and school-aged child, does housework, makes her own lunch, takes a nap after lunch, and has nothing to do after waking up. She either reads, watches TV series, or arranges flowers to pass the time, or goes out to chat with other full-time housewives. Around four or five o'clock, she goes to the supermarket to buy groceries and cooks. Then she just sits in the dining room and waits. If her husband calls to say he has to work overtime, she can only continue to wait.
It goes round and round, never ending.
Put yourself in her shoes. Attorney Fei was once so outstanding that 99% of people in the world couldn't even look up to her and could only tremble in fear under her dazzling light. And what happened to her after she became a full-time housewife?
Intelligence, mental strength, talent, glory!
Everything she had in the past was abandoned!
Your home is at 5-chome, 39 Beikacho. The location is decent, but frankly, it's definitely not a high-end residential area. The people living there are most likely middle class, and their social standing isn't very high.
Apart from Attorney Fei, who is an exception, the other full-time housewives living in that area who depend on men had an even lower social status before marriage.
Haha, I guess some of them are girls who go straight to girls' high school, then just find a job and drift through a few years, then quit once they find a man they barely find acceptable.
Can you imagine?
What was the scene when Attorney Fei interacted with them?
In this world, the difference between people is greater than the difference between an elephant and an ant. The difference in the level of thinking between Attorney Fei and those women must be as vast as heaven and earth!
Japan appears to be a civil law country, but did those women ever hear the names of legal sages like Cicero, Bartolomeu, Rousseau, and Montesquieu? Did their barren intellectual world ever bask in the slightest glimmer of reason?
How could Attorney Fei possibly have anything in common with someone like that?
It's truly pitiful. What kind of torment did she endure to barely bear those people's vulgar words and thoughts, so as to say goodbye without being impolite?
I think that, aside from the initial few attempts, Attorney Fei would rather stay in her room reading and immersing herself in her own world than engage in low-quality, meaningless social interactions that only pollute the depth of her mind.
Let me ask you, have you noticed this?
Attorney Fei became increasingly indifferent to the outside world, and the gossipy women around her also noticed that a swan was out of place among them, and began to spread rumors.
I think it never was.
As a young child, you lack the capacity to perceive the world as a whole. What you glimpse is only one aspect: that Attorney Fei is happy when she is with you and your father.
Of course.
Because you are the only people she can still connect with in her world.
"!!!!!!"
This statement is not merely words, but thunder from the heavens!
As the heavens trembled, one person was already completely stunned, transformed into a lifeless clay or wooden sculpture.
A gentle night breeze blew, and without her coat, Ying Sheng began to feel a chill. She glanced at Xiao Lan, who was covering her mouth in shock and tears streaming down her face, shook her head, and simply got up and walked out of the hospital.
Snapped--
My hand was grabbed.
Ying Sheng suddenly turned around and saw Xiao Lan's helpless pleading face, her pale lips trembling. Ying Sheng sighed helplessly, pulled her up with force, gently hugged her in his arms, patted her back, and then let go after a brief touch.
"Fool, how could I leave you now? I've just been talking for a while and I'm a little thirsty. Let's go buy some water and go together."
Ying Sheng tried to let go of Xiao Lan's hand, but she gripped it even tighter.
Her eyes were red and her lips were tightly pressed together, as if she were afraid of losing something else.
Ying Sheng smiled, and took her hand, walking towards the hospital gate on the moonlit cobblestone path.
"What I just said might not be accurate. I haven't even met Attorney Fei yet, how would I know what kind of person she is or what she's thinking? Maybe I'm actually way off topic, about her experience as a full-time housewife..."
"It's terrible."
Xiao Lan finally spoke softly.
"Oh? You've noticed something too?"
“I didn’t notice it before, but now that I think about it, every time my mother was scolded by my father, she would become very helpless, even though she was usually strong. I think it was just like what Mizuki-kun said, that her world was starting to collapse.”
"Well, maybe so. Mr. Mori is really a scoundrel."
"........."
Xiaolan was speechless, but after Yingsheng's analysis, she had no intention of refuting it at all.
From all perspectives, her father was indeed extremely unreasonable.
"Let's talk about the next stage of Attorney Fei's life, after she and your father separated. To be honest, this transformation is an inspirational and exhilarating story. Attorney Fei is a super strong female lead in a realistic sense, which is truly admirable."
Ying Sheng sighed.
Chapter 82 Show some resolve, Xiao Lan!
"Do you know, Xiaolan?"
Ying Sheng said, "When Attorney Fei is in the absolute lowest point in her life, she only has two paths to take."
One is that they gradually become overwhelmed by the mundane matters of daily life, losing their spirituality and becoming vulgar. Like other women, they abandon their past and independent personalities, becoming completely subservient to Mr. Mori and turning into walking corpses.
Secondly, it means breaking free from shackles and achieving great liberation!
To be frank with you, when you cried in the rain begging your mother to stay, you almost caused her death.
Your love for her is a net that binds her true nature. If she didn't have great perseverance and determination to abandon you, her life would probably have ended that day.
That rain wasn't sent by heaven because of your sorrow.
But for her.
To welcome Attorney Fei back to this cold yet vibrant real world, and to congratulate her on her newfound life!
Ying Sheng stopped when he felt Xiao Lan's hand stiffen.
He waited a moment before smiling and saying:
“Ignorance is no excuse. You were young then, so it’s not your fault. The biggest problem lies with Mr. Mori. He didn’t stop you then. Perhaps he was also in pain, but if we think about it maliciously, did he also know that he couldn’t stop you if he intervened? And you were the most powerful shackle?”
Xiaolan's body trembled, and she suddenly looked up:
