"Little brat, what are you talking about?" Ran Jing glared at him.
Lin Dong bitterly smiled. "You guys aren't Big Brother Cheng's girlfriends?"
Xu Cheng said first, "No." He then glared at Lin Dong. "What are you doing?"
Lin Dong looked around and said, "There's no tea here, so I'm using these skewers instead. Big Brother Cheng, teach me martial arts. I've been eyeing you for a long time. "
"What martial arts? Go study. Why are you always learning how to fight? Didn't you see that North Gate was destroyed? Studying and making money is the way to go. "Xu Cheng rolled his eyes.
Lin Dong said, "I can't make more money than my dad, and my family doesn't lack money. But I can reach the highest achievement in my life through my hobbies."
Xu Cheng was speechless. "Brat, I won't teach you martial arts. If you don't go home soon, I can teach you how to be a good person first."
Lin Dong panicked. "Don't, I'm being sincere."
Xu Cheng passed the plate back to him and said, "Let's go."
Lin Dong took the plate and put it back on the table. Then, he gritted his teeth and said to Xu Cheng, "I won't give up." Then, he left.
Shen Yao curiously looked at Lin Dong, and then she looked at Xu Cheng and smiled. "Judging from his appearance, he looks like he's from a rich family. Why did you reject him so directly?"
"A rebellious young man with an unstable personality. If I teach him how to fight, it would be strange if the students at his school didn't suffer. Look at his dyed blonde hair, and he's wearing earrings. What's the difference between him and a gangster? Even if I'm not a police officer, I can't accept a disciple like him. "
Lin Dong, who hadn't gone far, heard everything. He paused for a moment, touched his hair and ear studs, and then got into his brother's car.
"Look at how listless you are. She must have rejected you." His brother chuckled and said, "If you want to learn martial arts, just go to a training class. If you want to learn martial arts, I can find a teacher to teach you. Why do you have to learn from this guy?"
Lin Dong didn't say anything. He leaned against the back seat and lit a cigarette. Just as he took a puff, he remembered what Xu Cheng just said. He directly flicked the cigarette out of the car and said to his brother, "Take me to the barber shop."
While driving, Young Master Lin asked casually, "You want to get styled again?"
Lin Dong: "Dye your hair black."
Young Master Lin was stunned. He immediately turned to look at his brother. "What did you say?"
Lin Dong took off his ear stud and threw it out of the window.
Young Master Lin's eyes widened. "Fifty thousand yuan earrings!"
Lin Dong didn't care at all. When he arrived at the barbershop, he directly walked in.
Xu Cheng and the others were almost done eating and were about to get up to pay the bill when Lin Dong ran up to the three of them. However, Lin Dong had already dyed his hair back to black, and his earrings were gone.
Lin Dong sincerely looked at Xu Cheng and said, "Think about it, I have a lot of pocket money every month, enough for you to eat whatever you want, Master."
Ran Jing, who was standing on the side, burst into laughter and gave Shen Yao a meaningful look. Why do these lines sound so similar?
Shen Yao also had a strange look on her face. This reminded her of the time when she said something similar to Xu Cheng and was rejected by him …
Xu Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He walked over, put his arm around Lin Dong's neck, and pulled him to the side. Then, he lowered his voice and asked, "Kid, tell me why you want to learn martial arts no matter what."
Lin Dong raised his head and blurted out, "Because I don't feel safe!"
Xu Cheng was stunned. This reason made him a bit dazed. Once upon a time, he also felt that he was weak and insignificant, and that was why he entered the military and changed his personality.
"You don't lack anything, so why would you feel unsafe? Are you kidding me? "
Lin Dong didn't seem to be as simple as a high school student on the surface. He honestly said, "Ordinary people may see us as carefree and unfettered, but we also have our own social circles. For example, my brother can't even get into the top 50 of the Shangcheng Young Lords. If there are people, then there are people, then we also have our own social circles. When I can't win with my father, I just want to protect myself with my fists. Yes, my family is rich, but my parents only know how to make money. Do you want to know how many houses my brother has? Is the house I'm living in called home? By myself? Just like that night when you saw me, you asked me if I was scared of getting kidnapped. Of course I was, I was scared every day, but I was even more scared that my parents wouldn't know if I got kidnapped. Tell me, where would I get that sense of security? Just like you, do you have a powerful background? No! But you can rely on your fists to earn yourself the title of the Tiger of the Police Force, and the underworld is scared of you. Those rich kids with powerful backgrounds can eat you up, but they still have to behave in front of you. What are you scared of? It's just your fists! It's a kind of deterrence, and you should know better than me. "
Xu Cheng looked at this kid in surprise. He didn't expect this kid to see things so clearly.
However, there was one thing he didn't agree with. "Kid, do you think I rely on my fists to act real? You're wrong. "
He pointed at his head and said, "Why do some people act like idiots, but why can I get away with it? So, those who know martial arts can only be martial artists, but you need to have brains to survive in society. "
Lin Dong looked at Xu Cheng and said, "My brain isn't bad either."
Xu Cheng coughed. "Whether your brain isn't bad or not depends on whether you use it in the right way. If your character isn't good enough, everything you say is bullshit. Go home and continue living your life as a young master. The more powerful you are, the more trouble you'll get into. Just like me, you won't understand."
Then, Xu Cheng let go of him and turned around to leave.
Lin Dong looked at his back and shouted, "I know, just like when you provoked North Gate and West Gate, you had to stand up and face them. That's what I admire about you. Fighting against the big with the small. When everyone looks down on you and ignores you, you will always surprise them."
Xu Cheng stopped, turned around, and said, "But if you're not careful, you will die without a grave. When you show your abilities and want to get the respect that you deserve, you will offend people. You either bend your back or step over them. But no matter which path you take, it's very hard. So, sometimes being a lazy rich kid who doesn't accomplish anything isn't bad either. "
Lin Dong said angrily, "Like my brother? Look at him, even if his brother got beaten up, what can he do? Does he have to look at other people's faces and bully the kind and fear the evil? Why don't I respect him and love him? It's because he's willing to give up on himself. You said it's very tiring to be like this, so why do you still insist on taking this path? "
Xu Cheng snorted and said, "It's tiring to climb a mountain, but there are still people who will cut their way to the top. My father told me that when you stand on the top of the mountain, you can see the scenery of the whole world, you can see the sunrise, and it represents hope."
Then, Xu Cheng left, leaving Lin Dong to think about what he said.
