222: 222 222: 222 Ye Tian thought for a mont and said seriously, “I’m not trying to take anyone down or climb my way to the top.
I just want to climb to a higher position, the higher the better, and then I can have fewer concerns and do what I want to do.
When the position is too low, it’s hard to manage.”
The fire had been lit by Ye Tian.
Zhen Yulin took a puff from the cigarette and looked at him, then lowered his head to think for a mont.
He raised his head, looking through the hazy smoke at the buzz-cut face before him and sighed, “It’s said that the new generation replaces the old; I didn’t believe it before, and even now, I still don’t.
Newcors don’t climb up because they are new, don’t they also go through blood and sweat?
There’s not much difference between people.
What you said is right, only if you climb high enough can you confidently do what you want.
Those things are with her now, just go and see her, and try not to make it difficult for her.”
Zhen Yulin took off a tal cross from around his neck.
He pulled it apart; the cross divided, revealing a USB port.
“Inside this is so audio and video, so photos too.
You can probably guess what they are.
Zuo Zhengyang is very cunning, there’s no direct evidence against him, but if the contents here are exposed, it won’t cost him his life but could strip him of his layers.
If handed over to the discipline committee, they would probably punish him severely.”
Ye Tian took those items and handed them to Li Jing standing beside him, “Find those items and follow his advice, try not to make it difficult for her.”
Li Jing nodded.
“Give another one.” The cigarette in his hand had been fully smoked, the glowing tip was already burning to the butt, but he still couldn’t bear to throw it away.
“The cigarettes are yours, why be so polite?”
He passed another cigarette to Zhen Yulin and Ye Tian continued smoking his Red Mountain Tea.
“Hmm, you are a character.” Zhen Yulin looked at the Red Mountain Tea in Ye Tian’s hand, then looked down at his own Emperor cigarette, perhaps expressing his feelings or voicing a grudge that he couldn’t contain any longer.
“I have so things that I still want to talk to you about today.
I’ve held these words back for almost thirty years.
I planned to tell them to my descendants before I die, but then I thought about all the terrible things I’ve done alone, and it’s clear I’m dood to have no descendants.
eting you today, I’ll tell you these things.
Is that okay?”
Watching him trembling as he lit his cigarette with another cigarette butt, Ye Tian nodded, “Go ahead, I’m listening.”
Zhen Yulin exhaled a mouthful of smoke and stared dreamily at the cigarette butt on the ground, “I was like you when I was your age, disheveled, but you are luckier than .
At least you t Chen Pingrui and had a grand ti.
At your age, I was still serving tea and water in a small company.
Being from a rural area, with no skills, only relying on education as a way out, eventually, that very path turned into a dead-end, leading nowhere.
So when I first saw you, I really didn’t respect you.
Just another dog rising to power, barking while backed by people, I never really respected you.”
Ye Tian frowned but continued to listen.
“Later on, I was laughed at by classmates in the city, ostracized by colleagues at work, even taken aside by security for a separate inspection at the airport.
Back then, I was quite stubborn, wondering why I was so disliked.
After going round in circles, I ended up working as a waiter in a bar.
That’s when I learned that village folks can’t buy a bottle of booze with three to five years of savings, that acres of cotton aren’t worth as much as a tie, that damn it, twenty years of education isn’t as promising as an eleven-year-old kid!
Fuck!
I just lost it!
I cursed this world, cursed…”
Zhen Yulin took a breath, his eyes becoming moist.
“You tell , why is there such a huge gap between people?
One day, to entertain a custor’s child, I let him ride like a horse, slap , and each slap was one hundred yuan.
That night I earned six thousand three hundred yuan.
It wasn’t that I couldn’t be hit, the kid just got tired.
Clutching that six thousand three hundred yuan, I quit my job at the bar.
I rember just before leaving, our boss said sothing to that I still rember.
He said, ‘You little fucker, with your fucking pitiful look, you’ll never crawl out of this shithole!’ At that ti, I didn’t know what ‘shithole’ ant, I thought it referred to sothing like an outhouse, but later I learned that the old Tianhe slang for ‘shithole’ ant ‘a woman’s part below.'”
“Later, ah, I killed them all.
I and my forr classmates, colleagues, we started a company.
I invested the six thousand three hundred yuan that I earned from slaps.
Hey, you don’t know, those people actually ca to see fail.
They wanted to steal my money, to see ruined, even to see walking naked in the streets.
Funny, right?
It really is funny.
But in the end, there weren’t many who could still laugh.
I dug the pit myself and then watched those greedy bastards jump in one by one, ending up with nothing.
The company in the end, of course, was all mine.
Two people, one jumped off a building, splashed to shreds.
I stood upstairs and watched him hit the ground, turning into a red imprint.
Another, a guy who gambled his house on business, eventually went mad.
Then I occasionally went to fuck his whore wife right in front of him, doing it while he just froze and watched; damn, it was exhilarating!”
After finishing another cigarette, he took a fierce last puff and threw the butt on the ground.
This was his third one.
“Ah, that’s about it, that’s all I wanted to say.
The first half of my life was pathetic, the latter half a ss.
In the end, to die here in this wasteland, I deserve it, can’t bla others.
The ones I most wronged were my poor parents, honest people all their lives, yet ended up with such a bastard son who ruined them.
A family disgrace indeed!”
Zhen Yulin’s eyes were reddened, and as he closed them, a few murky tears fell.
With a crisp ‘snap’, a dead body lay on the ground.
Ye Tian didn’t know what to say, he hadn’t experienced these things, but he understood, he knew everything, yet he had no choice but to kill him, any soft-heartedness was nonsense!
