Chapter 229: Humans are so cold (Part )
I count down my life over the past 18 years, and it’s all very complicated.
I ignored the crying and peeing of babies around me; I participated in Didi’s whim; I met some of the most powerful people in the world; I also saw A, B, C, and D, who were all-powerful in the Japanese underworld...
As I grow older, I am more and more able to accept the fact that "this world is not prepared for you. You have to accept that there are some things that you can't get the results you want even if you try your best. You have to understand that no matter how much you bloom, no one will remember you after they pass by."
What's more.
Big cities like Tokyo are always very tolerant. Even if someone dresses up as a monster, no one will be surprised, and passers-by will be too lazy to look at them.
The handsome men and beautiful women in swimsuits are another matter.
therefore.
Even when walking among the hurrying crowd, you can feel at ease and include yourself among them.
This is good.
Zhuo doesn't want to be different.
How does one truly become worldly-wise?
Can understand the embarrassment of being short of money, can understand the arrogance of the poor who suddenly become rich, can imagine the shortsightedness of the frog in the well, can tolerate the boaster's superficial strength;
It can reconcile all ignorance, prejudice, arrogance, vanity, pride and inferiority.
There is a reason for all the different behaviors of all living things.
Do not envy the rich, nor laugh at the poor. Do not flatter or deceive, be neither humble nor arrogant. Know the prosperity of the upward, and the suffering of the downward. Know the vastness of the world, know how small you are, know the length of time, and know that gain and loss are all normal.
I remember a sentence Yang Jiang wrote in the book:
No matter which step you reach in life, there are people looking up at you from below and people looking down at you from above. So if you lower your head you feel complacent, and if you raise your head you feel inferior. Only when you look straight ahead can you see yourself.
"It is a great blessing for me to be able to blend in among the crowd inconspicuously like this."
Utsunomiya Sou expressed his thoughts on life.
[Santa Claus's happiness is amazing. By the way, is it also your happiness to let me hold you while walking? ]
evening.
The bustling entrance of 'Daimaru Department Store'.
Pedestrians coming and going were all paying more or less attention to this strange combination.
They discussed in low voices, speculating on the relationship between the two.
Utsunomiya Zhuo had just come down from Uesugi Erie's arms... Before entering the room, Zhuo had been holding the girl's slender white neck with his hands, his legs together, held by the girl's more delicate hands. His feet were off the ground, with only his hips hanging down.
Uesugi Erii walked with her head down the whole time, observing the direction that Zhuo was looking at, and then walked in that direction.
Okay, it’s a princess hug.
Uesugi Erii's steps were steady, and Utsunomiya Shuo's weight was nothing to her.
After all, he is the strongest hybrid who can throw a Ferrari supercar with his bare hands.
Utsunomiya Shuo believes that if a person lives under the gaze and opinions of others, it is no different from being dead.
So compared to asking Uesugi Eri to hold an umbrella for me, letting myself get wet in the rain all the way, and then going home to take a shower again... it is more cost-effective to be talked about by others with strange eyes.
of course.
If given a choice, no man would probably choose to carry a girl like a princess.
Zhuo also tried to suggest that 'he should hold the umbrella' or 'the two of them should each hold an umbrella'.
As we can see, Uesugi Eri does not agree.
She seemed to have some misunderstanding about the word "give" and insisted on helping "Santa Claus", that is, holding an umbrella for herself.
And then there was this: In the drizzle and fog, a red-haired girl carried a relatively tall boy in a princess hug, holding an umbrella over their heads, to the mall to buy pajamas, quilts, toothbrushes, shower gel and other things...
Whether it was physical strength or other people's gazes, Uesugi Eri did not react at all.
Only Utsunomiya Shuo had a look on his face.
This is a test of his attitude towards life!!!
"Human beings are so cold-hearted." After Zhuo landed, he walked towards the elevator of the shopping mall first, and the glass counters with gold, silver and jewelry on both sides kept moving backwards.
Uesugi Eri followed in small steps. [What happened? ]
She tilted her head and asked while looking into the small notebook that she never left.
"In broad daylight, a delicate high school boy was carried by a strong girl and ran in the rain. Are they really unwilling to take the time to call the police?"
Zhuo complained expressionlessly.
【not understand.】
Uesugi Erie pulled Utsunomiya Shuo's sleeve and showed him the notebook.
Zhuo read it calmly, nodded calmly, then pulled Eri's loose white shrine maiden sleeves and turned right.
In front is a pajama shop for teenagers, a shop rented by a well-known brand in Daimaru Department Store.
Zhuo needs to buy pajamas for a guy who grinned and said he didn't want to buy pajamas with others, and said he wanted to take a bath now.
Toiletries are provided.
I also have to accompany Eri Uesugi to buy her share.
Even if he invited the little mute to stay in his house temporarily, it couldn't be just the two of them, Feng Jian Liuli had to stay. Otherwise, even if Zhuo only treated the little mute as a child or a sister, it wouldn't be appropriate for a man and a woman to be in the same room.
Just as she was about to step into the store, the security guard with a slicked-back hair and powdered face stopped Utsunomiya Shuo and pointed at Uesugi Erii to indicate that women were not allowed to enter the store.
This rule is so strange.
But not that weird.
We have achieved true equality between men and women.
Amazing.
So Utsunomiya Shuo asked Uesugi Erii to wait at the door of the store and he would come out soon.
Just like that, the cute and exquisite doll girl in red and white shrine maiden costume stood alone in the endless stream of people, waiting expressionlessly at the door of the store.
Like a bicycle parked casually.
Utsunomiya Sou walked through the glass door covered by a gorgeous curtain and entered this "gender-equality" men's clothing store.
Although the entrance to this shop is strange, it feels like entering a hair salon with a half-rolled-up door in a deep alley. But once you enter the shop, everything is serious.
The indoor space is large. The bright room is illuminated by high-power warm lights. Every tile is polished to a shine. The decoration is simple, and there are no clothes hangers everywhere.
Very spacious.
Very spacious.
There were even less than ten finished garments displayed on one wall, and no other clothing samples could be found.
All clothes are custom-made, and the format, size, style... of the clothes are all selected on a form.
In ten minutes you can see a sample... a simply assembled sample outfit... and in twenty days you can receive a complete outfit carefully made by a master craftsman.
Delivery.
In an era when takeout and online shopping have not yet developed, this kind of service is particularly good.
Since Zhuo would need it tonight, his real purpose was just the samples that were put together temporarily, which he could also take away as gifts.
The price is not cheap.
But I got the credit card given by Fengjian Liuli in advance.
So Zhuo bought two sets at once, one for himself and one for Fengjian Liuli.
All pajamas.
Then he took the two bags of samples and swiped his card and left.
