Chapter 108 What Wish Would You Make
Chapter 108 What Wish Would You Make
The wisdom sparkling in Huo Rongtin's eyes is like the stars in the night sky, fascinating.
"Kant once said that once man is endowed with natural instincts, he needs reason in order to consider his happiness or disaster at any time."
Xin Suyan quickly answered, not wanting to be outdone;
They always have such a tacit understanding that they can complement each other's words.
“There is another saying, that the judgment of pure reason has supreme judgment before judgment.”
The two of them laughed so hard that they staggered from side to side;
Shin So-yeon even covered her lower abdomen. She hadn't laughed so happily in a long time.
It has been a long time since we discussed philosophy together.
In the past, in a private villa in New City, under the same starry sky, the moon was dim and the stars were sparse;
On the dark grey carpet in the villa’s living room, there is a yellow floor lamp in the corner;
There was a fireplace nearby, with fire jumping and burning dry wood; it made a hissing sound, just like today;
The two people hugged each other for warmth, one looking at mathematics and the other looking at philosophy.
Huo Rongtian held up Kant's "Critique of Pure Reason" and looked back and forth with a look of disdain;
Make fun of her: "What's the point of reading philosophy? It doesn't make money."
“It makes people happy!”
Xin Suyan snatched it away and held it tightly in her arms.
Huo Rongtin saw her lowered eyes and thick eyelashes, like a jumping elf, and couldn't help but kiss the corner of her mouth.
Every time I read a book, I get off topic and do other things after a while.
Whenever he saw her, he couldn't control his lower body.
But after every love affair, Xin Suyan would fall asleep in his arms out of exhaustion;
Huo Rongtin seemed to have evolved away from sleep and continued to study various mathematical books on investment analysis.
The two seemed to recall the good times at the same time, and smiles appeared on their lips.
The night sky is filled with a bright moon, twinkling stars, and insects chirping in the distance. It is already late at night.
The Morning Star is the brightest star in the west, guiding travelers to continue on their way.
"This building was the last project my brother was responsible for before he died. It has been completed and topped out. It will be inspected and accepted in the next few days. I have handed it over to him."
Huo Rongtian looked a little helpless and swallowed a mouthful of beer;
The dim light lengthened the shadows of the two people.
"No wonder you're staying here tonight."
"The tall buildings under the night sky make us look so small. We are just a speck of dust in the universe."
"Such a great building was built by people with their flesh and blood. So it seems that humans are greater."
Shin So-yeon tries to dispel the hatred hidden in his heart;
But he just kept drinking beer, one can after another, as if trying to get himself drunk.
Unfortunately, he has a high alcohol tolerance and becomes more sober the more he drinks.
Instead of being unable to stop missing those who have left, it is better to be grateful for the beauty of the present.
“People always think about the past when they are about to lose it; but they don’t realize that the present will soon become yesterday, so why can’t we cherish every day?”
After Xin Suyan finished speaking, she tilted her head back to pour the wine, tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, and the bottle was empty.
"Some people cannot predict tomorrow, so they keep their love for today; but some people are not attached to fate. Isn't it too cruel to talk about cherishing such people?"
Huo Rongtian clenched his teeth and said, "Ye Xueer and Xin Zhesheng only want today, not tomorrow's affair. They only care about their own pleasure, not the life and death of others. My brother has been ill for a long time, who will cherish him? No wonder you Xin family members can do things that destroy others, Xin Suyan, you have no heart. Are all your family members so hypocritical?"
The death of his brother has always been a thick fog in his heart that cannot be dispelled.
Even if the sorrow fades, the hatred will never disappear.
Given the power of the Huo family, they didn't let the Xin family disappear. This meant they were either showing leniency or had other plans.
"Will the hatred between us never be resolved?"
Xin Suyan asked softly and cautiously.
"I consider myself to be very good at mathematics, but I really can't solve this difficult problem."
"You just said you no longer hate me..."
"We can forget the past, but we cannot deny history."
Huo Rongtin supported himself on the ground with one arm, slightly raised one leg, tilted his head back to drink the wine, his posture was free and sexy.
If there was no hatred, Xin Suyan would love this sexy, charming, contradictory and ascetic man in front of her.
It's not that he doesn't hate her anymore, he just wants to cut off his relationship with her.
When Xin Suyan thought of this, she felt empty inside.
He held the light bottle in his hand, pointed it at his mouth, and shook it twice in the air;
I accidentally dropped one or two drops on my face and said to myself, "It's empty."
After saying that, he searched the floor for the wine bottles, and only the one that had just been opened was left in Huo Rongtin's hand.
Huo Rongtin had just taken a few sips when she snatched the cup away and continued drinking.
Before he had finished half of the drink, Huo Rongtin snatched it away to drink.
After several rounds of snatching, the can of beer was finished.
Xin Suyan fell to the ground laughing happily.
Finally, he lay flat, his chest rising and falling, sleepiness coming over him;
Huo Rongtin also lay directly next to her, but in the opposite position of her, on the ground.
"Rong Tian?"
"Ah."
The gentle tone of the word "hmm" made Xin Suyan's heart beat wildly. She couldn't tell whether it was the effect of the alcohol or the continuation of the ambiguity.
"Tell me, if I hadn't been so willful as to break up, would we still be together now?"
My heart is about to come out of my throat.
"do not know."
In fact, each of them has their own solution to the question.
Xin Suyan thought it was her willfulness, his workaholic nature and her brother's depression that made Huo Rongtian not try to keep her.
Only Huo Rongtin knew that in addition to this, there was also his father's obstruction.
Sooner or later, it will be like now, with only the possibility of having an affair or venting sexual desires.
There is no extra emotion and it can be expressed openly without restraint.
The two slender figures, looking from above, are like two parallel chopsticks;
The groggy and dizzy feeling makes people spin into the vast universe.
"What are you thinking about?"
"When I was little, my mother told me that the stars in the sky are the tears of fairies. If there is a falling star, it means that the fairy is crying, and your wish will come true."
"If you were asked to make a wish right now, what would you wish for?"
"Since it is a wish, of course it must be kept secret."
Xin Suyan turned her head and looked at his handsome face propped up by his hands: "What about you? What will you wish for?"
Huo Rongtian rolled his eyes upwards and back and forth: "Secret."
"Do you think you will be so lucky today that you can see a shooting star?"
"do not know."
Xin Suyan answered with a smile, her bright eyes and white teeth, even in the dark night, like dazzling white snow.
"Look, a shooting star."
"Where is it?"
Xin Suyan was attracted by the direction he pointed, and blinked her eyes for a long time, but didn't see it.
Just as I was about to teach him a lesson, I saw him closing his eyes, looking very pious, and making a wish with his hands.
Huo Rongtin prayed in his heart, asking his brother for blessings, and proposed to her when he completed the transformation to the upper city.
I wish to win the heart of one person and stay with him till we grow old.
Fearing that she would suffer a loss, she followed his example, clasped her hands together and made a wish.
"What wish did you make?"
Huo Rongtin opened his eyes and looked at Xin Suyan's pious expression.
"What did you wish for?"
Huo Rongtian smiled with a curved mouth, gentlemanly and charming: "I won't tell you."
"Then I won't tell you either."
"I know even if you don't tell me."
"Me too."
Xin Suyan looked at him with confidence.
