Perfect education is the most imperfect thing. It's not that Zhou Chen had a bad childhood, he just didn't have a childhood.
"I am not your good-for-nothing son, nor am I a medal for your success in life. I am a living person!"
He has been living under the high-pressure education of his father, who always monitors everything about him - such as what kind of friends he has made, why he comes home late, etc. He has answered questions countless times.
"Zhou Chen! I want you to understand! Do you think we are oppressing you? How is that possible? We are your parents, and everything we do and the hard-earned money is not for your own good?"
Here we go again. I had to pretend not to know the truth and pretend to be the perfect Zhou Chen in their hearts.
Everything seems like it shouldn't be like this, but it is indeed what I don't want to see - the way I pretended to be.
But one day - I met Lu Zhaozhao.
She was arrogant and rebellious, something I had never heard of before.
She has a passion for breaking rules.
She said: "The soul has no walls, no boundaries, its path leads to infinity."
I know that's Rilke's quote.
Later, it seemed that things slowly changed between us.
I couldn't see or read clearly what it was. So, people will not get what they want in some places. Even if I am a genius in learning, there is no denying the fact that I missed her.
She said: "The reason why it is called Zhao Zhao is because of Sima Zhao's heart. Everyone knows it, but why don't you know?"
Then she laughed "haha", and I felt silly for no apparent reason.
Only later did I realize that that feeling was called liking.
When we first met, she was scribbling roses on the desk. After so many years of separation, I just want to say——
You are not a delicate rose, you are a sunflower that grows tenaciously in the cracks.
So warm, so lively.
Still the way I like it.
There will be a bright future, I said to myself.
