Love Guide for Childhood Sweethearts

"Well, what else? Life never ends, and so does struggle." Lin Jingzhe said to Lin Qiwei with a warm smile on his face, "Achievements are earned through boring training day after day, year after year. No one can succeed easily." He smiled and said, "Is studying boring for you?"

"No, no, I like reading." Lin Qiwei said with a bright smile on her face.

"That's it. I like swimming too. But when a hobby becomes a job, there are times when I don't like it. But when I see the gold medal, I'm full of motivation again." Lin Jingzhe said, looking at them with crystal clear eyes.

"Gold medal, gold medal, can we see it?" Lin Qiwei said, looking at her with green eyes.

"Wait, I'll get it for you." Lin Jingzhe put down the teacup in his hand, got up and went to the bedroom. When he came out again, he had a wooden box in his hand. He opened it and placed it on the coffee table, "Take a look for yourself!"

"Wow..." Lin Qiwei exclaimed as she picked up the gold medal, "This is gold inlaid with jade!"

"Yes!" Lin Jingzhe said to her with a smile on his face.

"It's quite heavy." Lin Qiwei weighed the gold medal in her hand and said, "It looks brand new."

"It's only been a short time!" Lin Jingzhe laughed and shook his head. "The quality of our gold medals is guaranteed. Unlike some gold medals, the paint is already peeling before the Olympics are even over."

"This is too exaggerated!" Lin Qiwei said in disbelief as she looked at her with her eyes wide open.

"It's no exaggeration. Industrial manufacturing isn't that easy." Lin Jingzhe looked at them with his dark pupils and said, "We are the most honest and use real materials."

"Real gold?" Lin Qiwei said, looking down at the gold medal in her hand.

Lin Jingzhe was stunned when he heard this, then he smiled and said, "They are all gold-plated. Some of the gold-plated ones are not honest."

"Dishonest?" Lin Qiwei said, stroking the gold medal. "Why don't you just plate it properly?"

"Yes! After a long time, the gold plating fell off, revealing the iron inside." Lin Jingzhe looked at her with his dark and bright eyes.

"Iron Block, this is too stingy!" Lin Qiwei looked at her in disbelief and said, pursing her lips, "This represents the face of the country."

"People are different. They have no shame!" Lin Jingzhe snorted coldly, "Don't think so highly of them. You project your own fantasies of life onto Europe and America. In fact, if you actually live there, you will find that life is a mess. It's worse than back home!"

"Then why don't they come back?" Lin Qiwei looked at her with pure eyes and asked, "Our family is living well now."

"Please don't come back!" Lin Jingzhe said politely, "Selfish people who want to have the best of both worlds, don't come back." He added gloatingly, "They can't come back either."

"Why?" Lin Qiwei looked at her in confusion.

"Because he didn't leave himself a way out." Lin Jingzhe snorted softly, "He sold the house, quit his job, and took the child away. How can he come back?"

"Why don't you leave yourself some way out?" Lin Qiwei looked at her in surprise.

"I don't know about that. You just despise your mother! She's seeking refuge in the free and democratic world." Lin Jingzhe said with a cold look in his eyes, "You chose your own path, so you'll keep going no matter what!" He then jokingly said, "And because foreigners are so easy to fool."

"How is that possible? We're the ones who are so gullible!" Lin Qiwei retorted immediately, angrily saying, "At the beginning of the reform and opening up, we actively embraced the world, shouting every day about integrating with the world. How many people have we been deceived by!"

"Back then, our country had just opened its doors, and we were full of goodwill towards the world. Everything was new and exciting." Lin Xingzhi looked at her tenderly and said, "I was deceived badly! Now I won't be fooled so easily."

"What do you mean, sister? Foreigners are the most cunning, aren't they?" Lin Qiwei looked at her in confusion.

"It's hard to deceive our people." Lin Jingzhe looked at her with clear eyes and said.

"Fellow villagers cheated on each other and their eyes were filled with tears. One billion people were cheated, and nine hundred million were cheated..." Lin Qiwei started talking.

"If you say so, we won't be able to chat today." Lin Jingzhe looked at her warmly and said with a smile.

"I won't interrupt anymore. Sister, you speak, you speak." Lin Qiwei said embarrassedly.

"I'm talking about our way of thinking. We think very actively, while foreigners think very rigidly." Lin Jingzhe looked at her with his bright peach blossom eyes and said, "Right is right, wrong is wrong. It's useless for us to be right!"

"So what if it's right?" Lin Qiwei smiled and said.

"We Chinese people don't get angry, but foreigners are very angry. Being right is useless, so how can being wrong be useful?" Lin Jingzhe said, looking at her with warm eyes.

"No way!" Lin Qiwei looked at her in disbelief.

"Foreigners are very stubborn. Being wrong is absolutely unacceptable, and being right is really useless." Lin Xingzhi said with a smile after hearing this.

"We Chinese generally value responsibility. A responsible person is very reliable." Lin Jingzhe said as he looked at them with his beautiful peach blossom eyes.

"I've heard that before, it's quite reliable." Lin Qiwei nodded slightly. "The village matchmakers love to use that phrase." She pursed her lips and snorted softly, "But it turns out to be completely unreliable."

"This is my responsibility, I can't shirk it." Lin Jingzhe looked at them calmly and said, "No matter how hard it is, I will do it. I don't care. Even if there is no money, it doesn't matter." He added gently, "Our ancestors said it most clearly: Heaven will give great responsibilities to those who are capable of them..."

"Haha..." Lin Qiwei laughed when she heard that.

"It's our responsibility as human beings to distance ourselves from animals." Lin Jingzhe looked at them with eyes as deep as the ocean and said, "In the animal world, mothers take care of their children, and fathers disappear after mating."

"Yeah!" Lin Qiwei said with a smile, "There are many such situations in nature."

"After the introduction of Western culture, we have become less and less like human beings. Foreigners often talk about rights and obligations." Lin Jingzhe said, looking at them with clear eyes.

"Right, right, right!" Lin Qiwei nodded and sighed softly, "I rarely mention it. People nowadays only want power, not fulfilling their obligations."

"Even if the foreigners fail to fulfill their responsibilities, they will not be dismissed or investigated, nor will they be held accountable to the law." Lin Xingzhi looked at her with his inky black eyes.

"Brother, now that you mention it, I thought officials in China were more comfortable! It's far worse than in foreign countries." Lin Qiwei looked at him in astonishment.

"Really!" Lin Xingzhi blinked his dark eyes and looked at her and said, "People in China still don't dare to be too arrogant."

"If you hadn't told me this, I really wouldn't have known. I just thought it was as rosy as the propaganda said," Lin Qiwei said with emotion. "I was led astray."
