Know Yourself in the Dragon World

Lu Mingfei thought he could remain calm, just like when he was on the phone.

But the moment Chen Wenwen appeared in his sight, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

The sun fell on the girl's shoulders. She was still wearing the white skirt. She was fiddling with her phone with her head down on the side of the road. Her hair was loose and hung naturally, covering half of her face.

She shines brighter than the sun.

The car slowly approached and stopped next to her.

"Get in the car." Lu Mingfei rolled down the window and said gently.

Chen Wenwen looked at the car, then at Lu Mingfei inside, and was surprised and a little shocked, "Lu Mingfei?"

“Don’t you think so?” Lu Mingfei took off his sunglasses and smiled faintly.

Fight like the Chairman.

Lu Mingfei tried his best to recall Caesar and Chu Zihang's styles of doing things.

"I almost didn't recognize it," said Chen Wenwen.

Lu Mingfei noticed that Chen Wenwen was in a low mood, so low that she couldn't even suppress her surprise.

"It's been a year since graduation, it's normal to have changes." Lu Mingfei smiled and said, "But you don't seem to have changed much."

Lu Mingfei originally wanted to say: You are still as beautiful as ever.

But it doesn't fit my current image.

He couldn't quite articulate it.

Chen Wenwen opened the car door and sat down carefully. "I didn't expect you to drive a Panamera."

"Shall we set off then?"

"Okay." Chen Wenwen forced a smile.

"unhappy?"

"No, I didn't sleep well."

Chen Wenwen admired the scenery outside the window, and Lu Mingfei admired Chen Wenwen at this moment.

There were cars coming and going along the way, and Lu Mingfei drove as fast as possible.

He recalled the time when he and Chen Wenwen walked along the river on their way home. At that time, he hoped that they could walk as slowly as possible and that the road would be as long as possible.

Now, he just hopes it goes faster.

If he could speed up time and go back to that day a year ago, perhaps he would want to slow down again.

Unfortunately, no one can control time, and no one can resist growth.

The Panamera's wheels rolled over the ground, raising dust, and passers-by stared at it from outside the car window.

Perhaps passers-by would think that the owner of such a nice car is an outstanding young man.

With such a good car, the girl sitting in the passenger seat will never disappoint you. She must be beautiful enough to amaze you.

But Lu Mingfei is not a rich man, he feels that he is just a loser.

But the girl in the co-pilot seat will never disappoint.

Lu Mingfei once regarded marrying Chen Wenwen as the highest ideal in life. When they met again, he still believed that whoever could marry Chen Wenwen would be lucky.

But he didn't seem to care that much whether that person was himself or not.

"Isn't Han Qiu with you?" Chen Wenwen asked.

"He went there on his own."

"You should be living well abroad, right?" Chen Wenwen asked, staring out the window.

"Fortunately, I set up a club in the college. I am the president of the club and Han Qiu is the director of the management department. I also met a lot of friends. When I am bored, we will drink and sing together."

"It sounds very interesting. It seems that you two have found a wider world."

A wider world?

And it does.

Before entering Kassel Academy, Lu Mingfei was just an insignificant minion, no, not even as good as a minion. After all, he didn't want to be a minion for Zhao Menghua. In fact, he was not even as good as the big pig and the little pig.

"What about you?" Lu Mingfei asked. Although he knew the general idea, he still wanted to hear it from Chen Wenwen herself.

He could hardly find the impulse and yearning he had at the beginning. Maybe if Chen Wenwen said in person, "I broke up with Zhao Menghua," he would be able to find it back.

"It's okay." Chen Wenwen said softly.

"What about you and Zhao Menghua?"

The girl suddenly looked tired and didn't speak for a long time.

Lu Mingfei realized that he shouldn't have asked that, but the words had already been spoken and he didn't know how to salvage the situation.

He is so dumb when it comes to talking. He can't express himself, comfort or ask questions.

"You should already know this." Chen Wenwen said.

"Well... Han Qiu told me." Lu Mingfei explained: "Someone else told him."

Chen Wenwen didn't ask who it was, but tears began to well up in her eyes, "It's okay, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked you to come."

“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Lu Mingfei started to panic. He was like a monster that was hit by a stick from Sun Wukong, and his true form began to show.

That seriousness and dignity are fading away.

As he wished, he was getting back to his old self.

"Or, let me get off the car." Chen Wenwen shrugged her nose and held back her tears.

“No, no.” Lu Mingfei spoke quickly, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have asked that. I just don’t understand why I have to attend this dinner. If you don’t understand, then don’t worry about it. I don’t even understand myself, let alone yours.”

"Thank you... Actually... I just want to go and take a look, but if I go alone... it will be awkward."

"Yeah." Lu Mingfei ended the topic hastily.

He felt that Chen Wenwen was a bit pitiful at the moment. She was the president of the literature club, but now she was deserted by everyone.

I originally thought that Zhao Menghua was the right person, but now it seems that he is not the right one.

Lu Mingfei knew that Chen Wenwen didn’t want to go because of the literature club, but because of Zhao Menghua.

Those who are in the situation cannot tell right from wrong, nor can they let go of their obsessions.

This is true for Chen Wenwen and Lu Mingfei as well.

Why did Chen Wenwen go to a party where she was not invited, and why did Lu Mingfei drive to pick up Chen Wenwen among so many options?

How fucking insipid, Lu Mingfei thought.

The answer is so obvious, why bother asking Chen Wenwen?

Isn't it enough to just ask yourself?

Why did he agree to Chen Wenwen, and why did he still choose to drive to pick her up after knowing the whole story.

The answers to the two questions are almost the same.

Lu Mingfei had a lot to say all of a sudden, but he kept them all in his heart.

The car speed slowed down and was less than one kilometer away from the destination.

It's time to slow down earlier and give her enough time to prepare and face it.

Also give yourself enough time to think about it.

……

"Okay, professor, I understand." Chu Zihang walked out with the phone and picked up the car keys on the coffee table.

"What's wrong? My dear son, are you going out again?" Su Xiaoyan asked, lying on the sofa.

"Yeah." Chu Zihang hung up the phone, "I have something to deal with."

"Drive safely."

"I know." Chu Zihang reminded him, "I may not be back until late at night, so don't play too late. Remember to ask Aunt Liu to heat up the milk."

"I know, I know!" Su Xiaoyan yawned. She watched the World Cup last night and went to bed very late. Now she felt sleepy again.

"Remember to cover yourself with a blanket if you sleep in the living room." Chu Zihang turned and went into the bedroom to get the air-conditioned blanket.

"Son, you are becoming more and more nagging." Su Xiaoyan said with a smile as she watched Chu Zihang spread the quilt on himself.

Are you being long-winded?

Chu Zihang suddenly realized something for a moment.

He remembered that day, and remembered that he had said the same thing about that man before.

But not in the tone my mother used now.

It is a blame and resentment.

"Okay, okay, go ahead." Su Xiaoyan urged, "I'm sleepy."

"Ah."
