Chapter 226 Storytelling

Different races and countries have different customs.

She was a little girl, was she going to leave her hometown and go with these strangers?

Lucy was looking in the direction of Zhong Muming. Based on their positions and tones of voice, she easily determined who was the boss among the three.

The words of the twins in front of her were not counted, and the final decision had to be made by this strange, cold-looking man in black.

"No."

Zhong Muming also became interested. This girl was very interesting both in her personality and in the decisions she made. Although she was a minor, she seemed to be able to weigh the pros and cons.

He is much more scheming than the two almost-adult twins in front of him.

This answer was also to tease her, and he was also very curious about the reason why the girl made the decision.

Lucy's eyes were shining with tears. She looked at Zhong Muming pitifully. Feeling Zhong Muming's ruthlessness, her eyes drooped and tears fell.

That pitiful look makes people feel pity for him unconsciously.

Oh, is this a beauty trap or a self-torture trap?

He glanced at Shang Huayang, who was wavering in his heart, and shook his head. This IQ was the limit of his life. If Shang Huachuan hadn't been watching, he really doubted whether Shang Huayang would be sold out and have to help others count money.

Although Shang Huachuan was soft-hearted, he remained calm and did not express his opinion. He followed Zhong Muming's decision.

Shang Huayang was still rational. Although he felt sad, if he really took the person back, it would be a big trouble.

With his golden hair and blue eyes, he doesn't look like a Chinese. He's too conspicuous and he doesn't even have any identification.

There is already a baby before, and now it’s a girl. Should we still keep it?

Judging from Zhong Muming’s previous performance, if there was one more girl, she would definitely have to be taken care of by two people. Thinking of this, Shang Huayang calmed down completely.

The lesson for the little baby was really too cruel.

I heard that there are many naughty children among the kids, who are energetic and noisy.

There is one noisy one, that's enough.

"Really, no?"

Lucy asked with a last glimmer of hope.

"Can you tell me why you made this decision?"

Shang Huayang poked Shang Huachuan:

"Sir, he speaks English so fluently, better than you do."

Shang Huachuan was full of confusion. No, you just noticed this now?

Sir, he always understood what the two were saying, but you were the only one who didn't.

Do you understand now?

Shang Huayang shook his head. What a joke! He was a poor student but not stupid. After listening for so long, he should understand a simple "no".

How do you expect him to listen to the rest of the story?

Zhong Muming ignored the two people who were whispering behind him. However, this whisper was directed to Lucy. To Zhong Muming, he heard it clearly but just didn't want to pay attention to it.

Lucy didn't care about what the two people behind her were saying. After realizing that this was her chance, she honestly chose to say what she was thinking.

She was not sure if she could lie in front of Zhong Muming.

"My late grandfather liked to tell me all kinds of stories. One of the stories that impressed me the most was about a man in a country who was wanted everywhere. A man in that country had two sons, and he entrusted his two sons to two people respectively.

One was the person who had helped them before, and the other was the person they had helped. Later, the person who had helped them chose to help them again, and the person they had helped betrayed his son, leading to his son's death.

I was very confused and asked my grandfather, shouldn't ordinary people be grateful for the help they receive? Why would they betray the son of their benefactor? Why would the other family help them again?

My grandfather said that people’s hearts are fickle. Those who have helped them before will not mind lending a helping hand again, but those they have helped may not necessarily help them again.

Later, my grandfather said a lot more, which I almost forgot. But when I was making a choice, I don’t know why this story suddenly appeared in my mind.

I think it must be my grandfather who went to heaven who gave me guidance.”

After listening to such a long speech, with the translation by Shang Huachuan, Shang Huayang's eyes were full of admiration for the girl's grandfather. From what the girl said, it was not her parents but her grandfather who had been teaching the girl how to behave, and she was educated very well.

Her grandfather must be a man with a story, a very powerful man.

Shang Huayang looked at the girl with a thoughtful look in his eyes. The girl's grandfather taught her well, and the girl herself performed even better. Although there were some flaws and her actions were immature, there was no doubt that the girl herself was an excellent person.

She has good resilience, is bold, dares to gamble, and has a never-give-up spirit. Her performance is even better than most people.

Regardless of whether they will awaken superpowers in the future, people with such character will not have a bad life in the future.

Of course, if the starting point is different, the end point will naturally be different.

And now, it will be a turning point in her life.

Staying in this country, struggling and trying to survive, is bound to be a bumpy road.

If we follow them away, the future will also be unknown and we will face many difficulties. The first step is language. If we want to go to their country, we have to speak their language, which requires some learning.

Even children who grew up in China would have a headache when faced with all kinds of homophones, polyphones, antonyms, synonyms, and pinyin!

His eyes also looked at Zhong Muming, waiting for his decision.

Being stared at by three pairs of eyes, Zhong Muming remained calm:

"That's an interesting reason. I'll let you pass."

Lucy's eyes lit up and she quickly wiped away her tears, which mixed with the dust on her face and she suddenly turned into a little cat, although she was still pretty.

"Thank you, thank you. I will definitely not be the ungrateful person in the story. I will repay you well."

Zhong Muming always just listened to such words. No matter how nice the words sounded, it was useless. He would even sneer at them. He still had to look at people's actions.

Thinking back to those days, which one wasn’t nice to hear?

In the end, betrayal is not something that can be ignored.

Speaking of which, he really needs to change his bad habit of picking on people everywhere. Now that he has quit drinking, it shouldn't be that difficult to change his bad habit.

He saves and helps people without ever asking for anything in return.

Seeing Zhong Muming raising his legs and trying to leave, Lucy hesitated for a moment, but still spoke:

"Wait, can you help me deal with Grandpa Andrew's body? I don't want him to die in suspense."

In this conquered city, the exposed corpses, without anyone to bury them, would be eaten by monsters and birds, especially scavenger birds.

In their country, there are many procedures for holding a funeral, but in this situation, everything can only be kept simple.
