Comprehension against the sky, creating the Five Thunders in the real world

Before Zhou Tianliang could ask, Lin Beichen said, "I'm going back to the restaurant to wait for someone. I won't leave for now." Plans never go as expected. Since the driver needed help, and given their connection—Lin Beichen had a good impression of the driver—he decided to stay and wait, adhering to the principle of helping whenever possible.

Good heavens! Does it have to be this casual? Just leaving whenever you want, and not leaving whenever you want.

"Are you kidding me? Can't you have any principles?" Zhou Tianliang thought to himself, then turned around and saw the two girls from before. They'd just said goodbye, and now they wanted to go back to the restaurant together—this situation was incredibly awkward.

"What a coincidence, we meet again, big brother."

Liu Qing smiled brightly at Zhou Tianliang.

Anyone could see her affection for Zhou Tianliang.

"Let me formally introduce myself. This is my younger sister, Liu Qing, and my name is Su Xue. We are reporters from the Sunshine Newspaper, currently in our internship period, but we'll be officially hired soon. It was all a misunderstanding earlier; my sister was just being naive, and taking pictures was simply a professional habit."

"I promise I won't cause any trouble in your lives."

"There's something I need to talk to you about. You mentioned before that you wanted to develop a relationship with Lin Beichen, and I must clarify that he is indeed a worthy partner to whom one can entrust one's life."

"But his work is dangerous, and he could meet with any mishap at any time."

"Besides, you two might not end up together. He really has little interest in ordinary women."

"This road will be very difficult. Have you thought it through?"

Wang Fugui was discussing this matter with his daughter, Wang Ling.

Considering that Lin Beichen will be going to the Empire to carry out a mission in three months,

He decided to give his daughter a heads-up first. After all, no one can guarantee that the mission will go perfectly.

"What's wrong, Dad?"

Wang Ling looked at her father with a puzzled expression.

Her father had never said these things to her before.

Is Lin Beichen going to carry out some dangerous mission?
She knew, of course, that Lin Beichen was frequently away on missions.

They could be killed in action at any time.

But she never thought about it that way; in her heart, Lin Beichen was exceptionally outstanding.

For Lin Beichen, carrying out missions was as routine as eating a meal.

There will be no major problems, at least no danger to life.

"I believe that Brother Lin Beichen will definitely not be in any trouble. His strength is obvious to all."

"How could he possibly fail on the next mission after carrying out so many missions?"

"I have full confidence in him."

Wang Ling's gaze was firm.

His face was filled with unwavering trust.

Seeing his daughter like this, Wang Fugui had mixed feelings.

Is it true that daughters are like birds that cannot stay at home once they grow up? The child has grown up and has her own ideas.

Further discussion is pointless, and besides, he genuinely approves of Lin Beichen. This mission might not fail; in fact, the probability of success is quite high.

"You silly girl, you haven't even met him properly, and you already trust that kid so much? You've already considered yourself one of his people so quickly? Or are you just too confident?"

Are you so sure you can succeed?

Wang Fugui didn't know how to offer advice.

We shouldn't be too idealistic about anything.

Even if you fail, you should leave yourself some room for maneuver.

Lower your expectations to the minimum and prepare for the worst so you won't be disappointed.

"Oh, Dad, what are you saying?"

“I was just saying it casually, why did you go so far? We’re not really friends yet, but I believe that sincerity can move mountains, and I will cherish this relationship.”

Wang Ling pouted her little mouth.

She glanced at her father with displeasure.

"Okay, okay, I know, our Wang Ling has grown up." Wang Fugui didn't treat his daughter like an adult at all, still speaking to her in a coaxing tone. Wang Ling was already used to this.

I even felt a little annoyed.

I didn't think much of it before.

But now she wants to find her own happiness.

If her crush thinks she's indecisive...
She might be looked down upon, so she had to act more mature.

"Okay, Dad, don't talk to me like that anymore."

"I'm afraid people will misunderstand and think I'm immature."

"That's it for now. I still need to study. I plan to make a name for myself in the communications class, even if it's just to gain experience. I want people to know that I'm not just a pretty face. I don't rely entirely on my dad's help; I have real skills too."

It must be said that Wang Ling was indeed young and impetuous.

Wang Fugui expressed his understanding of his daughter's confidence and assertiveness.

The old Wang Ling wouldn't be like this; she's truly grown up.

……

at the same time.

Chen Lin and Chen Fei, who were working in the communications room, were also discussing news about Lin Beichen.

"I heard that Lin Beichen is going to the Empire to carry out a mission in three months."

"The Empire is fraught with danger; don't you plan to say something to him beforehand?"

Seeing that Chen Lin was still engrossed in her work,

Chen Fei said with a sense of disappointment.

People always have to fight for the happiness they want.

If we always let things take their course, we might miss out one day.

As a close friend, Chen Fei didn't want to see Chen Lin regret her actions.

“He’s leaving in three months, and I…” Hearing Chen Fei’s words, Chen Lin paused, her expression complicated as she hesitated to speak.

She really didn't know what right she had to persuade Lin Beichen.

Moreover, Lin Beichen had never had any close contact with her; they were merely colleagues who had worked together. Even if she harbored feelings for him, she was never able to take things further.

More than friends, less than lovers.

The two never publicly acknowledged their romantic relationship.

We remain friends, though not very close.

To be honest, Chen Lin had even suspected Lin Beichen of having problems in certain areas a few times. She had given him hints more or less in the past, but he seemed completely oblivious. Apart from her colleagues, no one knew about her affair with Lin Beichen. And her colleagues all kept quiet and didn't spread the word.

"I'm so conflicted. I don't know if he likes me. If I don't confess, we can still be friends. But if I confess and get rejected, we might not even be able to be friends anymore. Sigh, let's not talk about this anymore."

Chen Lin's sudden emotional outburst caught Chen Fei off guard.

It turns out my best friend had been worried about this all along.

But then again, Lin Beichen is indeed a strange person.

Chen Lin's concerns are not unfounded.

At least we can still get along as friends.

If Lin Beichen knew Chen Lin's thoughts...
If you are rejected after confessing your feelings
This will inevitably create a rift in their relationship.

We might not even be able to remain friends. How would we get along then? Therefore, expressing your feelings must be done with caution.

"I just can't do anything with you. With your looks and qualities, what kind of man couldn't you find? Why are you fixated on him?"

Chen Fei sighed helplessly.

He swallowed back the words he hadn't finished saying.

She knew that trying to persuade her would be futile.

Since I know it's useless, as a good friend, all I can do is support her.

"Don't worry, it's not as bad as you think. We can go together if we have the chance, I'll support you. Don't worry, Lin Beichen definitely won't refuse you."

Chen Fei gently embraced Chen Lin.

Chen Lin shed her usual strong exterior.
Nestled in her friend's arms like a child.

"Yes, yes, I must make things clear after he finishes this mission. Delaying isn't a solution. I... I'll definitely succeed, right?"

Her tone carried a hint of coquetry.

It seems she is seeking comfort from a friend.

Faced with Chen Lin's coquettish pleading, Chen Fei said helplessly:
"Of course, our Chen Lin is the cutest. Who could resist such a cute girl? Lin Beichen is so lucky to be liked by our Chen Lin." "This is definitely a blessing he earned in his past life."

Chen Lin stopped crying and started laughing.

Hearing her friend's comforting words, she felt much better.

I've also come to understand many things. Even if I'm afraid of losing something, I can't keep hesitating. Procrastination benefits no one.

If you continue to be indecisive

Someone might take advantage of the situation.

This idea is indeed correct.

Because Wang Ling happened to be passing by the duty room.

It was purely by chance that Chen Lin and Chen Fei's conversation was overheard.

Wang Ling would never admit that she was eavesdropping there.

……

Lin Beichen had no idea that so many people cared about him.

He, Yu Feng, Nora, and the others had not yet received notification of their mission to the Empire three months later. They only knew that their superiors had granted them a three-month leave, and although the arrangements after the leave were not explicitly stated, they had already made some guesses.

Taxi driver Lao Liu walked into the restaurant.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng were spotted at a glance.

When he reached the two-person table, he saw Zhou Tianliang sitting with two unfamiliar girls on one side. He said apologetically, "I really didn't expect to trouble you, I shouldn't have, but I really have nowhere else to turn."

"It's alright, please have a seat."

Lin Beichen waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be polite.

Yu Feng personally poured a cup of hot water for the driver, Lao Liu.

No profession is inherently superior or inferior, and he held no contempt for taxi drivers. In fact, he greatly admired Lao Liu's earlier decision.

Next, Yu Feng and the driver, Lao Liu, began a question-and-answer dialogue.

Su Xue and Liu Qing, who were initially disappointed because they felt like outsiders, found their eyes growing brighter and brighter.

As the saying goes:
Intentionally planting flowers but not blooming, unintentionally planting willows and willows make a shade.

The hot news they've been searching for is right in front of them, isn't it?

Although the driver, Lao Liu, had a kind heart, he ultimately did not receive a good reward.

Su Xue and Liu Qing almost clapped and cheered excitedly.

They never expected to encounter such a good thing.

They stumbled upon such a sensational event, and this news is sure to ignite public opinion. This perfectly aligns with the current public's gossip-loving mentality, and they don't need to worry about losing their jobs.

Moreover, this is all done in the name of helping others.

Help this wronged driver.

"Click-clack—"

The old habit happened again.

Su Xue raised her camera without the driver's permission.

The experienced driver was startled, not expecting the girl to suddenly take a picture of him.

This caught him completely off guard.

What's going on? Isn't this girl being a bit reckless?

Why take a picture of someone's face directly? Do you think you're exceptionally good-looking?

To be honest, he didn't consider himself bad-looking, but he was also quite self-aware. While he wasn't ugly, he was definitely not "handsome."

"Young lady, what are you doing?"

The old master asked, looking puzzled.

When asked this question, Su Xue realized that her behavior was abrupt.

She quickly explained to the experienced craftsman:

"Here's the thing, my sister and I are newspaper reporters. We can do a special report on what happened to you. It will not only help you solve the problem, but we also can't let good people suffer. We must get justice for you." Su Xue's words made the old man's nose tingle slightly.

I never expected that someone would understand my situation.

After a moment's thought, he still said to Su Xue:
"No need, let's just forget about it. I don't really care anymore."

"He probably misunderstood and thought I was trying to extort him. Never mind, there's no need to report on it anymore."

The master craftsman is an honest man.

He actually intended to forgive the other party.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng both looked surprised.

Judging from the old master's words, he didn't intend to pursue the matter further.

Lin Beichen and Yu Feng weren't in a hurry, because they could tell that Su Xue and Liu Qing were the ones who were truly anxious. The two girls seemed desperate to find sensational news to publish.

Given that's the case, they're happy to wait and see.

"How can this be? He went too far; you can't forgive him so easily. Forgiving him is tantamount to condoning the spread of bad behavior. He must realize the seriousness of the matter."

Su Xue hurriedly tried to dissuade her.

She was really worried that the master craftsman would change his mind.

If the experienced workers are unwilling to pursue the matter, their work cannot continue. Therefore, we must firmly uphold the experienced workers' determination to protect their rights.

Bah, this isn't looking for trouble.

This teaches the other person what it means to put yourself in their shoes.

Only in this way can we prevent kind-hearted people from feeling disheartened.

"Yeah, what he did was so infuriating! I couldn't stand listening to him anymore."

"He needs to know."

"We will definitely clear your name."

“That’s right, this social trend must be corrected. Only by fully disclosing the incident and having us sisters conduct in-depth reporting can we truly give you justice.”

Su Xue and Liu Qing are both quick-witted and sharp-tongued.

With each word spoken, the old master began to waver.

But the experienced worker couldn't bear it in the end. He thought about the hardship the mother faced taking her child to the hospital alone, and assumed she was a single mother. He admitted he hadn't explained the situation clearly when he called.

Of course, it was also partly because the other party didn't give him a chance to explain.

The experienced craftsman believed that once the reasons were explained, the single mother would understand, and things would at least not turn out this way.

"Never mind, I've thought about it, there's no need to make things difficult for her anymore."

The old master chuckled self-deprecatingly.

"She didn't ask me to speed; I was just being nosy."

"This really isn't her fault. By reporting it like this, aren't you just subjecting her to cyberbullying?"

Given the current terrible state of the online environment.

In the end, the master craftsman couldn't bear to agree to Su Xue and her sister's suggestion.

"Oh dear, no! You're just too kind and honest; that makes you vulnerable to being taken advantage of."

"How about this? We really want to help you, and at the same time, we're completing our work tasks. We'll give you corresponding compensation while we help you. What do you think?" Su Xue's family was clearly well-off. As she spoke, she took out three hundred-yuan bills and neatly placed them in front of the old man.

"I... I don't think it's quite right."

The experienced craftsman was not greedy for money.

Instead, they felt that the money was too hot to handle.

Would you abandon your principles for a mere three hundred yuan?

Would you abandon the principles you believe in for a mere three hundred yuan?

He hesitated for a moment, but finally managed to tear his gaze away from the banknotes. One should always have principles and a bottom line; there's no need to cause trouble for others over three hundred yuan. Even though the other party was at fault, he shouldn't be so petty.

The experienced craftsman had a very clear understanding of the situation.

They have even decided not to accept the money.

But plans can't keep up with changes, and Su Xue's spending was truly extravagant.

Seeing that three hundred yuan wasn't enough to sway the old craftsman, Su Xue took out three more bills from her bag. Three hundred, then three hundred, and finally another three hundred, making a total of nine hundred yuan neatly arranged on the table. (End of Chapter)
