Chapter 13: 13. The feeling of dreams coming true_1
Ren He is now a celebrity at school, although his reputation isn’t exactly stellar.
Nicknas such as “the worst student” and “the guy who wants to switch to athletics halfway through” all refer to him. And especially that jump from the teaching building, truly horrifying!
Which normal student would do such a thing? When everyone told their parents about Ren He’s act today, all parents would say to keep away from this problem student, who could go crazy at any mont.
In the eyes of the teachers, Ren He, who once had such a low profile that he was practically invisible, suddenly beca synonymous with rebelliousness, heresy, and being a thorn in their side.
But the fact that Ren He wasn’t disciplined for his violation, along with the heartfelt scene with Director Liu, made them subconsciously think that Ren He might not be a simple case. So teachers had already decided to turn a blind eye. If Director Liu hadn’t said anything, why would they bother getting involved unnecessarily?
Duan Xiaolou glanced at him, “Why did you want to jump off the building during the day?”
Ren He was already tired of explaining the difference between jumping off a building and a running long jump. Indeed, in others’ eyes, it was jumping off a building…
“Don’t you think life would be a bit boring if it were too peaceful?” Ren He retorted.
“But everyone lives like that, study well, take exams, find a good job after graduating, and then have a stable family. There is happiness in tranquility too. Besides, tranquility doesn’t an diocrity, does it? Many kinds of greatness are born from tranquility. Life doesn’t have to be intense to be lived,” Duan Xiaolou said earnestly, stopping in her tracks.
“No wonder they say girls mature early, you think quite far ahead…” Ren He muttered under his breath.
“What?”
“Nothing, as you said, many kinds of greatness are born from tranquility, but I want to clarify my point. First, I don’t want to be great. The concept of greatness ans nothing to . I’m just a grassroots underground, saving humanity and advancing social developnt have nothing to do with . Second, the things I plan to do are destined not to be peaceful,” Ren He’s eyes beca serious too. He suddenly felt pretty good, at least he was talking to a girl with a mature mind, and there were so topics between them. Even though Duan Xiaolou was only 15, she was much stronger compared to her peers, which might have sothing to do with her family background. He had no idea what her family did.
But he himself knew best that if he kept courting disaster, his life was dood to not be peaceful. Have you ever seen soone bungee jump peacefully? Who the hell goes bungee jumping in peace? Even though it was a mission, even though Ren He could stop his writing, could refrain from copying those classics, right now he was genuinely enjoying the life he had craved for over a decade in his past life.
It was like… the feeling of a dream coming true.
Ren He could feel that the life he and Duan Xiaolou were going to lead would definitely be completely different, like two rays moving further and further apart.
Duan Xiaolou asked softly, “What is your dream?”
“Ha ha, it wouldn’t be fun if I told you. You will naturally know when I achieve it. If I don’t, not speaking of it will spare
the embarrassnt later!” Ren He chuckled. “What about you, do you have a dream?”
“I wanted to be a dancer when I was little, but the older I got, the more I felt there was no future in dancing, so I no longer have a dream. But after talking to you today, I believe I’ll have one soon, thank you,” Duan Xiaolou said sincerely, “You are indeed different from the Ren He I had in mind.”
“People grow, right.”
“Ha ha, what were you thinking about when you jumped from the teaching building this morning?”
“I was thinking, this building is really damn high. But that jump was truly thrilling, so much so that I even thought about doing it again.”
“No way, jump again? Aren’t you afraid of dying?”
“Afraid? Who isn’t afraid of death…”
Neither of them had anticipated that, once they got down to a serious conversation, they would have so much to say.
…
National Day arrived very quickly. Beyond winter and sumr vacations, the two holidays students anticipate the most are probably May Day and National Day, finally a chance to truly relax.
So made plans to hit the internet café for gas, “Don’t miss out at the Ga Pioneer café tomorrow, I’ll lead you guys to victory!”
“With your terrible skills, who could you lead?”
“Nonsense, I’m untouchable in Red Alert!”
Of course, there were also girls arranging to go shopping together, and even more outrageous, so planned to work on their howork together… a scholarly world Ren He would never understand.
This ti, more than twenty students from their third-year class two were planning to go to White Cloud Mountain. Initially, there were only about ten, but the addition of newcor Yang Xi had convinced several others to join as well.
However, Ren He and Xu Nuo were not included; they had set out early in the morning.
After all, Xu Nuo was just a middle school student who had never traveled that far by himself. The three-hour coach journey to White Cloud Mountain was already a big trip for him…
“Ren He, do you have any idea what you’re doing? We won’t get ourselves lost, will we? If I rember correctly, it seems like you’ve never traveled far either…” Xu Nuo still felt a little nervous.
Ren He replied irritably, “Relax your heart into your stomach, we won’t get lost!”
Then Xu Nuo discovered that Ren He knew exactly how to transfer buses and expertly bought the coach tickets, even chatting briefly with the ticket lady. He seed far from a typical middle schooler.
“How much money did you bring? Is it enough?” Xu Nuo asked worriedly. “We are going to stay overnight and watch the sunrise tomorrow. Don’t run out of money. I spent all the pocket money my dad gave
on ga discs last week, and now I can’t squeeze out a penny.”
“Xu Fatty!” Ren He’s face darkened, and he simply flashed his wallet, showing Xu Nuo the 2000 yuan inside: “You’ve been nagging all the way, shut up and sleep for a while, and when you wake up, we’ll be there! I don’t know why you worry so much at such a young age?”
“Wow! That’s so…”
Just as Xu Nuo was about to exclaim about the amount, Ren He covered his mouth and whispered sternly, “Shut up, don’t show off your wealth, understand?”
“Understood, understood,” Xu Nuo said with a beaming smile. “I didn’t expect you to have actually made a fortune!”
“Just sleep!”
Ren He had Xu Nuo sleep, but he did not sleep himself. Truth be told, he had never been able to sleep in cars since he was a child. He had a natural wariness.
Thieves generally wouldn’t steal from passengers with their eyes open, as the risk of failure is high. Although they steal, they don’t wish to be discovered, so those who are asleep beco their pri targets.
Picking persimmons to eat, they go for the softest ones – that’s the logic.
