Chapter 85: King Cheng Defeats the Bandits (3)

  "But I think, if a person can't even take care of their own life, can't even support their own family, then that person is truly a failure. This is also why I told you, when someone earns 2,000 yuan a month and donates 1,500 yuan, I not only don't think they're great, but instead think they're selfish and irresponsible."

  "My mother often says a sentence when she encounters unpleasant things, no matter how you live, it's just one life. So, under her influence, I may be more content with the status quo."

  "So that's why you're more optimistic and content, right? Actually, I also want to be more optimistic and content sometimes, but I find it hard to be optimistic and content."

  "That's because you've confined yourself, always turning around in circles. If you change your perspective a bit, you might just find an exit."

  "It's not as simple as you said, people often find it easy to know but hard to do. Because the tree wants to be still but the wind won't stop. Those environmental factors have always been objective facts."

  "The key is whether you are willing to come out, how great your determination is, and how fast you act."

  Ouyang Xiaoxiao didn't say anything anymore.

  Seeing Ou Yang Xiao Xiao fall silent, I was afraid she would think too much, so I quickly changed the subject and said, "Xiao Xiao, when I was in Beijing, I met a friend who was a literary youth. We chatted for an entire afternoon and came to this conclusion: those people in this world who often complain about being talented but not meeting opportunities are actually because their talents are not great enough. As long as one's talent is big enough, they will definitely be able to stand out. What do you think? Is our conclusion correct or not?"

  Ouyang Xiaoxiao nodded, "Mmm, in this world, there are many people with great talent, but truly exceptional talents are rare. To sum it up, they're neither too many nor too few, just just right."

  "I didn't understand what you meant, I think there's a bit of contradiction between your previous and current statements."

  "Some people are alive but already dead, while some people are dead yet still alive. Isn't this a contradiction?"

  "I once met a girl online, she said something like 'You and my friend are both really talented, yeah, his handwriting with a pen is pretty good.' I was quite annoyed when I heard that, thinking that in this day and age, talent has become too cheap. So, I directly blocked her."

  Ouyang Xiao was amused and burst out laughing.

  "Uh-huh, uh-huh, didn't you say before that you wanted to go to the private server and fight? Now I'll give you a login account, go play."

  "Oh, okay."

  I logged into the game.

  Ma Dai and Lü Bu are not online.

  Because my character is a Taoist, and Ouyang Xiaoxiao previously played a warrior, so she had a hard time fighting, in less than half an hour, three of the nine equipment on me were blown off.

  This made Ouyang Xiaoxiao feel very guilty, so she quit the game.

  At this time, Gǔ Xuělín just happened to be back from school, so the three of us went downstairs together to eat.
