Chapter 37 Conquer
We shouldn't give up on the pursuit of happiness even if we live the most ordinary life and have to rush for three meals most of the day. Reading an interesting novel, listening to a classic song, sipping a mouthful of tea, and even smoking a bubble of 2.5 yuan grass smoke can let us experience the fun of life.
The leader of the explosives team explained that the point of this sentence was not to be dull, but to be fun.
He once told Gu Tianyou that life was a process of making choices over and over again. Before you make every decision, don't ask about the gains and losses first. Measure the consequences. Just ask yourself if this is what you really want. Be it dull or adventurous, don't give up on the pursuit of happiness. Seeing his heart clearly, he could fight for whatever he wanted. If he got it, he had to cherish it twice as much. Nothing in his life was more important than this.
That's what he said, and that's what he did. Because blowing up a prison wall would make him happier, he did it.
To the current Gu Tianyou, the most beautiful thing in life was Fang Le'er . Gu Tianyou was now very sure that what he had, and what was most important, was right beside him. Making her happier was what he wanted to do the most.
Late at night, the city was surrounded by highways, brightly lit like a ribbon of nocturnal light that surrounded the city. The Audi A8 was speeding along the road at full speed, and the lights were being pulled into hallucinogenic colors due to the change in speed. After a few corners, the lights of the three luxury sports cars behind Zou Haibin and the others pulled farther and farther away, quickly disappearing without a trace.
Fang Le'er withdrew her gaze and slowly closed her eyes. A smile blossomed on her face like a summer flower. Gu Tianyou rode Juechen and crossed the finish line. Suddenly, she opened the skylight and stood up excitedly, shouting happily.
At a roadside stall in the night market on Old Temple Street, Zou Haibin was redeeming his previous racing bet. After the four men each had five bottles of beer in their stomachs, the arrogant aura on this guy's body had disappeared. '"Are you a professional? A high-powered business car beat my Enzo by leaps and bounds. When I return to Yanjing and tell others, no one will believe me." Gu Tianyou continued to ask, "Are you a professional?"
Shao Yuze 's driving skill is better than Zou Haibin 's. He saw it more specifically and said, "The key is that you didn't lose much when you turned the corner. Originally, the three of us were much faster in the straight lane than you. We lost in a few corners. In fact, our car chassis was lower and the controllability should have been better. I really want to know how you did it."
"Every car has its limits." Gu Tianyou smiled and said, "I'm only trying my best to display the performance of that car. As for the three of you, you are too concerned about where you are. You can't even hear the breathing sound of the engine while driving, let alone the sound of the tires rubbing against the ground. How can you display the best performance of that car?"
"It sounds very mysterious, but it seems to be the case." Zou Haibin nodded and said, "In the past, when I was playing in Yanjing, I drank some wine and went berserk with others. At that time, I didn't have any other thoughts in my mind. In the end, I actually won against an opponent that I had never won before. At that time, I was still afraid. Now, it seems that alcohol has increased my concentration." There was a hint of practicing driving right now.
"You may say so, But you can't do that, A friend of mine used to drink and drive a few years ago, Sentenced after the crash, Let's not talk about what it's like inside, Tell me about the woman he killed, "At that time, there was still a small one in his stomach. A corpse and two lives. At first, this guy didn't care at all. Later on, he had been inside for a long time and had seen a lot of things. Only then did he realize that this matter lacked great virtue. He regretted it for the past two years. Unfortunately, everything was too late. He sat down sick. Now, as long as he saw his belly and the child, he would feel guilty and scared to death."
This wine was Zou Haibin 's treat, but it was Gu Tianyou who put forward this bet.
At this moment, seeing that the others were already drunk, they intentionally talked about their fellow inmate Li Mingbo , only making some minor changes to the details.
When the three of them heard the clue, Zou Haibin asked, "From your tone, why did you go in?"
Jianghu taboo.
Gu Tianyou said casually, "I made a mistake when I was young. I just learned a lesson."
Zhao Ziming looked drunk and said, "The friend you're talking about isn't yourself, right? You're the only one who can catch up to a professional driver with your car. You must have practiced a lot in the past."
Su Xiaoqi said, "I don't think so. I've heard about the incident that killed a pregnant woman. At that time, I remember when I was just in junior high school. It was quite a sensation after the online report. I saw that Gu Tianyou was about the same age as us. Even if he caused a car accident, he was still not old enough to be sentenced."
Gu Tianyou said, "Stop guessing. It's not me. However, that matter must be true. Let's learn from the past. We drank today, and when the brothers go back, we don't need to drive."
Zou Haibin suddenly raised his head to stare at Gu Tianyou and asked, "What you said is true? What if I have to open it?"
Gu Tianyou chuckled. He had a car key in his hand that belonged to Zou Haibin 's Enzo. He exerted force between his fingers and immediately crushed it into two pieces.
Zou Haibin frowned at first, but when he was about to explode, he suppressed his anger and asked curiously, "When did you take it?"
Gu Tianyou said, "It's just a small skill. If you're interested, I can teach you. Forget it today."
Zou Haibin pointed at Gu Tianyou and looked around at the other two people, "This person is very interesting. Did you two see what he played just now?"
The two of them shook their heads together.
Shao Yuze said, "It's amazing." He was actually talking about Gu Tianyou's driving skills.
Zhao Ziming was drunk, and his words weren't as cautious and polite as before. He shook his head and curled his lips and said, "Absolutely nothing. Second-rate actors in the circus should be at this level."
Gu Tianyou chuckled, "It's not what I do, it's what I dare to do." As he spoke, he casually waved his hand, and two more car keys appeared in his hand. He threw them onto the ground and stepped on them.
Zhao Ziming 's lips twitched and he said, "I borrowed my Martin. Do you know how much a key costs?"
"I'll accept any amount of money." Gu Tianyou said, "I suggested this drink, so I won't let the three of you drive back after drinking."
Zou Haibin sneered, "Who do you think you are? And who am I?"
"I'm Gu Tianyou, you are Zou Haibin or anyone else is not important to me." Gu Tianyou stood up and walked in front of Zou Haibin. "What's important is that you understand a truth. The son of a thousand gold doesn't sit in the hall. Even if you can't learn this truth, you must at least understand another. Life is only for everyone once. If you don't cherish yourself, you should at least cherish others."
"Hehe, I really don't see that you have the potential to be a missionary. You're right. Unfortunately, I'm not going to be reasonable today." Zou Haibin seemed to be drunk and shook his body. He pointed at Gu Tianyou and said, "If you want to listen to the old man's nagging at home, you have to hide your identity and obey the law after coming out of school with great difficulty. Now that I'm driving a car and playing, I still have to listen to your manipulation? Gu, if you dare to say another word, I'll kill you, do you believe me?"
The atmosphere became more and more stiff. Fang Le'er looked at Heaven's Blessing Envoy a few times, but Gu Tianyou did not see him. This bastard in front of him was indeed not to be provoked. In fact, it was just his two followers, and Gu Tianyou didn't think he could afford to provoke them. But he couldn't afford to provoke them. If he allowed the three of them to drive away like this, the consequences for Gu Tianyou would be even more severe if something happened.
Zou Haibin staggered towards the car. The car also had a fingerprint identification function, which could activate keys to start, and could start without inserting a key. Gu Tianyou flashed and blocked his path. Zou Haibin raised his hand and slapped him. Gu Tianyou saw the situation and grabbed his wrist. He waved his hand and pushed Zou Haibin to the ground. Zou Haibin was furious and stood up from the ground. He left and right beckoned for the two of them to go up together.
Zhao Ziming picked up a wine bottle from the side and rushed over. Shao Yuze hesitated for a moment before pouncing on it. Gu Tianyou kicked the bottle in Zhao Ziming's hand away. At the same time, Shao Yuze's fist had already reached his ears, and the evil wind seemed to be quite powerful. Gu Tianyou suddenly turned around and used his forehead to hit Shao Yuze's fist.
With a crisp sound, Shao Yuze jumped up in pain and shook his hand in pain. Zhao Ziming stood there empty-handed, a little dumbfounded. Zou Haibin also heard that voice. He stared at Gu Tianyou's forehead and looked at Shao Yuze. He knew Shao Yuze's background. He never thought that Shao Yuze, who had won the youth group championship in a national boxing match, would be defeated in such a way.
Zou Haibin signaled for him to stop. He turned around and asked his companion, "Old Shao, what happened to your hand?"
"It seems to be a bone fracture. It's not too serious, is it?" Shao Yuze sucked in a breath of cold air and grinned in pain.
Gu Tianyou took off his suit and handed it to Fang Le'er , who came over to try to persuade him to fight. He said, "It's been a long time since we've had a fight. There's no accuracy in our hands, so I'll have to forgive those brothers who are lighter." As he spoke, he walked towards Zou Haibin . He didn't expect that this kid would take a big step back. He waved his hand repeatedly and said, "Stop, let's not fight anymore. Old Shao can't even fight anymore. What are you talking about? If you don't let us drive back, then let's continue drinking."
Zhao Ziming was probably drunk by now. He shook his head and said, "I can't beat you. I can't drink you to death. I just want to ask if you dare?"
Su Xiaoqi stood beside him and frowned, "Look at how you drank it. You're still challenging him."
Zhao Ziming shook his hand and said, " Su Xiaoqi , stay out of my business and do what you need to do. I don't need you to do anything. I've been suppressed by you ever since I was young. If it weren't for my mother protecting you, do you really think I'm afraid of you?"
This guy seemed to have really drunk too much, and he stood there staggered and spoke incoherently. Zou Haibin frowned and said, "Ziming, you're really drunk. Hurry up and stop."
Zhao Ziming gestured with his hand in the air to refuse. He looked at Zou Haibin drunkenly and chuckled, "Zou Haibin, Brother Haibin, what did you say?" I'm drunk. Why are you asking me to stop? Just because your family's old man is older than my family's official? Or based on the papers you found the gunman to write, which were published in the People's Daily? I know that you look down on me. To tell you the truth, I look down on myself. We've known each other for three years. You obviously didn't treat me as a friend, but I still rushed to curry favor with you … "
"Ziming, you're fucking drunk. Your mouth is full of Hu Qin. You're not afraid of being laughed at by outsiders!" Shao Yuze endured the pain and stood between the two of them.
Zhao Ziming waved his hand and said, " Shao Yuze , stop acting like a big-tailed wolf in front of me. What's the difference between you and me?" In the end, we only flatter him according to the wishes of the family. Are your flattery nobler than mine? "You're just playing with your car better than me, playing the game better than me. Well, fighting is also better than fucking me, so your flattery is good." Ignoring Shao Yuze , he turned to look at Fang Le'er and said, "Do you know why I invited you today?"
Fang Le'er nodded and said, "Probably."
"That's why you brought him here." Zhao Ziming pointed at Gu Tianyou again and gave him a thumbs up. "I never thought you would have such a boyfriend. No wonder you didn't like me when you first entered school. This guy is really a character. He's good at racing, fighting, and even magic. He looks, looks like he doesn't even need to fucking mention Fang Le'er … I'm sorry!" Zhao Ziming pointed at Gu Tianyou again and said with a thumbs up, "I didn't expect you to have such a boyfriend." I apologize to you. I also don't want to be this bitch. I really liked you once, but my mother said that Su Xiaoqi was just… "
Pa!
"Zhao Ziming, you're enough!" Su Xiaoqi , who was standing at the side, suddenly exploded and fiercely gave this guy a big mouth. As he spoke, he pulled Zhao Ziming up and nodded at Zou Haibin , wanting to pull him away. But I didn't expect Zhao Ziming to suddenly struggle and shout loudly, "Break free, break free from the shackles of reality! Roar, roar, roar, roar, this true desire! The summer flower is short, only a moment of brilliance, beauty is eternal. I would rather wither after the brilliance than never bloom in this life!"
After reading this poem, which was most likely written by himself, Zhao Ziming suddenly crouched on the ground and burst into tears. Zou Haibin walked over and squatted in front of him. He patted his back and said, "Dude, stop crying. Do you think you're the only one who's feeling wronged?" To be honest, you're not necessarily worse off than me. Including Old Shao, the three of us have our own helplessness. I like racing. Old Shao wants to become a professional boxer. I don't know what you like, and you never said … "
"I like poetry, I want to be a fucking poet, I want to write a lot of love poems for Su Xiaoqi , thank her for protecting me silently all these years, I also want to write love poems for many other beautiful girls, make their hearts beat, stunning my talent, I want to ride on my poems, travel all over the world, praise the moonlight under the moonlight, worship nature between mountains, rivers and valleys … … … … … … "
He spoke faster and faster, almost venting, "I still want to throw myself naked into the sea and have sex with Su Xiaoqi . I already wanted to have sex with her, instead of looking for those women who paid for it. I…"
"Oh, oh, Su Xiaoqi , you want to f*cking care about me again!"
Su Xiaoqi 's eyes were filled with tears. She let go of the hand that covered his mouth and suddenly hugged him. She stood on tiptoe and kissed him.
"What a shame." Zou Haibin kicked over a beer chest beside him and scolded, "Three pitiful ghosts, you can't win even if you run away. You even drank a few drinks and drank yourself into a fool!"
Shao Yuze said, "I really want to suspend school and concentrate on playing for three years. Even if I can't play, I'll be willing to go back to school for the rest of my life."
Gu Tianyou watched quietly and sighed in his heart. Indeed, there was no perfect life in this world. The three youths who had grown up in the honeypot seemed to have everything they wanted, except the right to pursue their ideals, from childhood to adulthood. However, the great material riches filled the mental emptiness, their words and deeds were bound in a circle, the restlessness of adolescence was suppressed by the etiquette and upbringing imposed on them, once they found the opportunity to vent, they would be especially crazy.
"Let me tell you a story. Perhaps you will feel better after listening to it." Gu Tianyou took the lead and walked back to the stall. He pulled a chair and sat down. Fang Le'er silently accompanied him. Zou Haibin stood there hesitating for a moment. He shook his head and smiled. He walked over. Shao Yuze followed closely behind him. Su Xiaoqi supported the swaying Zhao Ziming and followed him.
"There was a man who had been in prison since he was born and had not seen his parents since he remembered them. He had not even seen a toy before he was fourteen, let alone a racing car. "Later, this person met a noble person in his life. He was taken out of prison and stayed in an ordinary family. He went to school and fell in love with the only daughter of this family. This person did not come into contact with society. He only liked it when he knew he liked it. He never thought that society would approve of this relationship. As a result, he made a big mistake."
Gu Tianyou paused for a moment and looked around. Everyone, including Fang Le'er , guessed who the main character of the story was. Everyone listened attentively with interest. Gu Tianyou picked up a bottle of beer, took a big sip, exhaled, and continued, "Later on, this person became a seducer and was sent to juvenile detention center. He was fifteen years old, and for the first time, he pursued what he wanted with his temper. As a result, he paid a painful price. Do you think he should regret it?"
Su Xiaoqi glanced at Zhao Ziming and turned around to ask Gu Tianyou, "Then do you think this person regrets it?"
Gu Tianyou slowly shook his head. "There is nothing to regret. Even if there is a little bit, it is regret that there was no love at that time. It was a waste of a lot of good time in hesitation."
Su Xiaoqi nodded thoughtfully and looked at Zhao Ziming beside her. Her gaze was like a quiet sea, deep and gentle.
Fang Le'er suddenly asked, "Is this person still missing that girl?"
Gu Tianyou turned to look at her and said seriously, "Of course I would think that happy memories should never be forgotten. Although it is already the past tense, the beautiful feeling at that time can remind that person to cherish the happiness in front of him twice."
Before Fang Le'er could say anything, Zou Hai Bin couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praise, "Alright, buddy, you're really an expert. You're so logical, and you even stunned the girls. I finally understand. You're trying to persuade us to live frankly and take advantage of our youth to be stupid for a few years first."
"If that's what you mean, then I have to say, bro, you're a full man who doesn't know how hungry a hungry man is." Zou Haibin shook his finger and said, "You say that because you have no experience of being disciplined since childhood. Have you ever experienced the days when you have to be cultured to sh*t and eat? Do you know what it feels like to be compared to countless good examples every day? Have you ever imagined living in the same mold for twenty years?"
"But we still can't refuse, because the people who force us are the parents who love us the most and should love us the most. They gave birth to us, took care of us, and exaggerated all their love to us. What can we do against them? So, your story can only represent the people in that story and doesn't mean anything."
"You denied yourself before you made your decision, so there's nothing you can do." Gu Tianyou said impolitely.
"Do what you like, It doesn't have to go against the wishes of the parents, There is actually no conflict between the two, Your biggest problem is not the restraints your parents place on you, It is the disapproval of your own ideals in your hearts. This is a cowardice. You must overcome this mentality. Parents are bound by love for you at all times. No matter what you do, they will not really do anything to you. Only this cowardice is the true enemy of freedom. "
" Zou Haibin , you can't be a professional driver. As a hobby, you can always enjoy it. However, it's not worth fighting over in your heart. It's not hard to think about it clearly." Gu Tianyou turned around and said to Shao Yuze , "You can really fight professional boxing for a few years. That punch just now was very powerful. Fortunately, my skull was made from a large cauldron from a very young age. Otherwise, you would have knocked it down just now."
Zhao Ziming vomited when he spoke just now, and now he was stuck in Su Xiaoqi 's arms, as if he was asleep.
"Let's call it a day. Let's go back to our respective houses. If you feel unconvinced, we can make an appointment again. We can do whatever you want. If you think that I'm okay with it and am qualified to make friends with you, you can call me. At that time, I'll invite you to my place to have a good time." Gu Tianyou threw the key to Su Xiaoqi . "Please drive the three of them back to where they should go. I'll take a taxi with Le'er."
