In the face of his Senior Sister's invitation, Zhang Lisheng nodded with a smile. While explaining to his girlfriend, he hung up the phone and walked to the cafe by the roadside.
When he pushed open the brown glass door, a gush of warmth hit him. At the same time, the cold wind blew the few strings of wind chimes hanging on the door frame, giving off a series of melodious tinkling sounds.
At the door, the young man held a tablet computer and looked around the shop that was decorated simply and warmly but had no customers at all. He could not help but sigh at the desolation of the campus again.
The sound of the wind chime reminded the slightly fat young waitress who was wearing a checkered shirt, who was the only one left in the cafe. Now that there were customers, the girl who was dozing off on the counter with her arms propped up immediately stood up with a smile and said enthusiastically, "Welcome to the Wonderful Mill Cafe. What would the three of you like to order?"
"Please give me a glass of iced Coke, thank you.
Senior Sister, what would you like to drink? "Zhang Lisheng habitually sat down by the window of the cafe and asked.
"A cup of Blue Mountain Coffee and a cup of Cappuccino, thank you," Guo Caiying replied and sat down with Ai Chuhe in front of the young man. Guo Caiying said as she and Ai Chuhe sat opposite the young man. The three of them stared at each other speechlessly. It was only until the cola and coffee were served that the girl took a big gulp of the thick black coffee that she suddenly said solemnly, "Junior Brother, do you know that you're in danger now?"
It did not cross his mind that Guo Caiying would actually say such an opening remark. Zhang Lisheng was stunned for a moment before replying in a dumbfounded manner, "I don't know what danger I'm in. If you're referring to the accomplices of those dead robbers, to be honest with you, Senior Sister, those people are just some scumbags who bully the weak and fear the strong. They've long been scared out of their wits …"
"I'm not referring to this," Guo Caiying shook her head hard. After a moment of hesitation, she pointed at her own head and whispered, "I'm referring to your mind. Your mind is very dangerous, Junior Brother."
"Oh, so you're referring to this," Zhang Lisheng shrugged in realization and said indifferently, "Perhaps. In the eyes of ordinary people, I should indeed be regarded as a strange and dangerous person, but so what?"
Guo Caiying was stunned for a moment before advising him seriously, "Junior Brother, since you understand the flaws of your character, you should try to change it. Otherwise, you'll definitely cause a disaster in the future.
I'm saying this for your own good. Just like this time, you've already subdued those criminals. Why, why must you take their lives?
That's … that's seven lives we're talking about. If it wasn't for the prosecutor's decision to waive prosecution, it would've been a major case that would've rocked the entire US … "
"Senior Sister, I understand that you mean well." Zhang Lisheng's gaze that was looking out of the window suddenly had a hint of surprise as he casually said, "How should I put this? I-I know how a normal young person should live.
He ought to drink coffee in a café;
When you see a pretty girl, you should want to pursue her.
After earning money, one should dress up nicely for a date, dance, drink, and enjoy their youth.
Whenever someone provoked me or something bad happened, I would get into a fight out of impulse. However, regardless of whether I could win or not, I would always hold back. Everyone would think that this kind of person was normal and easily likable. However, it was a pity that I had never been this kind of person to be likable, nor had I ever wanted to be likable to anyone.
As for me, I like to drink iced Coke on all occasions.
I never pay attention to whether there are any beautiful girls around me.
I think that wealth is only a means to achieve my goal and rarely stop to enjoy my life that is already considered very successful in the eyes of others. When I encounter someone provoking me or something bad, such as seeing a familiar girl crying in fear, I'll calmly do my best to send the bastard who brought her tears to hell. This is my character.
Even though I know that such a stubborn and cold character is annoying, there's nothing I can do about it. This is because I was born, grow up, be it in the past, present, or future, it's all for the sake of being Zhang Lisheng. For this reason, I'm not anyone else. I'll always be Zhang Lisheng … "
"That's enough, my dear baby. To me, this is the most important point." Nobody knew when, but a blonde girl with a tall figure that was not inferior to a supermodel with exquisite and deep facial features walked into the Wonderful Mill Cafe. When the young man's words left his mouth, she walked up to him gracefully and kissed him as she said.
"I saw you just now, Tina. Why did you suddenly appear?" After a deep kiss, Zhang Lisheng asked in surprise.
"That Boeing Business BBJ737 has been delivered. It's the first test flight, so I wanted to give you a surprise. Besides, how could I not know that you've used your connections in Washington to prevent that 'news' from spreading? Of course, I have to come and see you.
When we were talking on the phone just now, I was already in Stanford. It won't take me much time to find this Wonderful Mill Café using the positioning function of the campus electronic map.
Why? I didn't disturb you, did I? "
"Of course not." Zhang Lisheng was stunned for a moment. All of a sudden, he saw Tina, who was beside him, looking at Guo Caiying and Ai Chuhe in a well-mannered manner. Hastily, he introduced them, "Tina, these two are Chinese students studying at Stanford, Guo Caiying and Ai Chuhe. According to Chinese custom, they're my Senior Sisters.
Senior Sister Caiying, Senior Sister Chuhe, this is my girlfriend, Tina Douglin. "
"Nice to meet you, Miss Guo Caiying, Miss Ai Chuhe." After listening to her boyfriend's introduction, Tina took the initiative to greet them politely but coldly.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Tina Douglin." Guo Caiying looked at the blonde girl in front of her who was obviously much more charming than her despite being a completely different type from her. Suddenly, she felt a little restless and said with a frown, "Junior Brother, since your girlfriend has come to look for you today, we'll take our leave first." Pulling Ai Chuhe, she stood up and strode out of the café.
The cold wind blew outside. Feeling the huge temperature difference, she suddenly yawned and could not help but say in annoyance, "Why does a yellow-skinned Chinese have to look for a foreign girl? I really don't know what he's thinking."
Upon hearing her best friend's words, Ai Chuhe could not help but be stunned. Shocked, she said, "Hey, Caiying! Don't talk nonsense! Since when have you become a racist? I've always felt that you're very strange these days. D-Don't tell me you're …"
"What am I?" Guo Caiying's expression changed right away as she interrupted nervously. "I just feel that it's unreliable for us Chinese to associate with those white and black people.
Look at Old Wei! Look at how badly he's been tricked by that Lisa! And Su Qi! During the time when she knew Kunawa, she was like a ghost all the time, and in the end, she even had to drop out of school dejectedly! Isn't this a lesson from the past? "
"You're right, but love is not something that others can interfere with. Besides, that Miss Tina looks like a model on the cover of a fashion magazine. Junior Brother Lisheng must be in love with her …"
"Other people would definitely fall in love with such a sexy and beautiful 'cream girl' but that's not necessarily the case for Zhang Lisheng's papaya brain. Look at how passive he's acting! I think he can still be saved."
"Sigh, Guo Caiying! What do you mean by 'saved'? Is he drowning or is he hit by a car and needs you to save him?"
"Chuhe, you must have a conscience. Even though Zhang Lisheng is like a stubborn 'professional killer', he's actually an impulsive young man who is easily angered.
Listen to how cold and philosophical he is when he talks, but actually, he's already turned silly from all the research he's been doing all day. What does he know? Once such a person encounters an emotional trauma, he'll break down right away. By that time, who knows how big of a mess he'll make!
H-He has saved you once, so I have to save him! Do you understand now? "
"But he killed seven people! Seven living people …" Ai Chuhe's body suddenly trembled as her face turned a little pale.
"He killed seven murderers, robbers, and rapists … Of course, he didn't succeed. Just like what he said, those people are all 'scumbags' and they deserve to die. Back then, when my grandfather was making a revolution in Big Wan Mountain, it was called killing … Erm, in short, it's forgivable for him …"
The two Asian girls were whispering and discussing Zhang Lisheng and his relationship outside the cafe. In the cafe, when their backs disappeared in a hurry, Tina stroked her boyfriend's cheek and said dejectedly, "Baby, the reason why those unlucky robbers died is because of these two Chinese Senior Sisters of yours, right?
The content and tone of your words in front of them are completely different from when you're with the Americans. I'm so envious that both of you have the same culture. "
When the girl's unintentional words entered Zhang Lisheng's ears, it was as though a loud bell tower had suddenly resonated in his ears, causing his entire body to tremble. He suddenly realized that ever since that rainy night until now, he seemed to have unintentionally become frank and straightforward when he was communicating with others. His words would go straight to his heart.
Upon seeing the sudden change of her boyfriend's expression, Tina asked nervously, "Lisheng, what's wrong with you?"
"It's nothing. Maybe it's because my strength has been improving too fast recently, so there's a little psychological problem." Zhang Lisheng became silent for a while before saying with a wry smile. "It's a good thing that you've reminded me just now. I should be fine if I pay more attention in the future."
"So the reason why you're talking to Miss Guo and Miss Ai like that is because of your psychological problem …" Tina was stunned for a moment before saying with a smile, "No wonder they don't seem to be very grateful to you and you're still treating them so sincerely."
"Other than you and mom, I'm very sick right now, so it's very easy for other women to hate me. It's understandable that they're not grateful to me," Zhang Lisheng touched his head that had grown a layer of sparse short hair and replied jokingly.
When Tina heard that, she took a good look at her boyfriend's face and said in a low voice with a pained expression, "Baby, you do look much more haggard than before. Do you really have to use such a terrifying method to increase your strength?"
"In witchcraft's cultivation, the 'resurrection from death' is a checkpoint that must be passed. Only after passing through it can one be reborn and become a baby. Well, it's like being born again in a mother's womb, returning to the stage where one's life has just started."
"Oh, that's amazing!"
"That's right! Come to think of it, it's quite amazing indeed!" Zhang Lisheng drank his iced Coke and nodded.
"What's even more amazing is that I can make love with you who's strong and young now, and I still have the opportunity to make love with you who's also strong but still in the child stage in the future, isn't it?"
