120 Find Someone Who Won’t Bully Me
“Thank you. I’ll return it to you when I get back to school.”
Zheng Shaolin looked at her. “It’s fine, I can also share with my deskmate. Hope you recover soon.”
Lu Ning nodded, her eyes clear and a smile on her lips. “Okay, thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
He quietly retreated to the back and his face turned a little flushed. He thought that no one was paying attention to him, but when he turned around, he met Lu Qing’s gaze. Lu Qing leaned against the wall and sized him up; Zheng Shaolin felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, so he silently retreated to the door and turned to leave.
…
The group chatted with Lu Ning until noon.
“Let’s go. I’ll bring you guys nearby to eat something. You must all be hungry after so long.”
They were certainly hungry. Lu Zhi brought them out, and also had Lu Qing come along; he asked him to keep an eye on the back and not let anyone fall behind. They would not be able to answer to their parents if any of them got lost.
Lu Qing walked behind them. Some of the girls kept looking back at him and could not help but cover their faces.
“Lu Ning’s brother is so handsome. Why are their family’s genes so good? Lu Ning’s so pretty, and her brother’s so handsome. Moreover, her little brother is so cute.”
“Yeah, they’re all so good-looking.”
“Look at that coat he’s wearing. My dad has one too. It’s so ugly on him, yet he looks like a model in it. His figure is too amazing!”
Someone at the side added coldly, “He’s not bad, but I still think Teacher Huo is more handsome.”
“Dear me, what do you know? Lu Ning’s brother is gentle and handsome, whereas Teacher Huo is cool and aloof—they give off different feelings, and we love looking at them all the same.”
“Oh, although Teacher Huo looks a little fierce and scary, I still think it’ll be great if the school is filled with teachers as handsome as him.”
“Plus one!”
“Plus one!”
“Plus one!”
…
After they left, Lu Ning took a deep breath.
Shen Yunci could not help but smile at her. “You must be tired.”
Lu Ning nodded slightly. Shen Yunci sat beside her, and Lu Ning leaned her head over. “Mom, mingling with people is so tiring.”
Shen Yunci smiled and patted her hand.
“Life is sometimes very tiring, and so are the things in life. Look at your classmates, they’re all teenagers like you, yet they’re trying to make friends with you; they’re also tired of mingling, and afraid that they won’t be liked.
“They are all using their hearts to sense and understand each other, which is why they feel tired.
“Making friends is a process of sincere exchange.
“This process requires you to put yourself out there and experience it yourself; but if there’s one thing Mommy can tell you, it’s that you should cut some people off earlier than later.
“It depends on whether this person can continue to be a good friend. If they repeatedly did things that made you uncomfortable, then you have to carefully consider whether you want to continue your relationship. Some people have incompatible views, and staying friends would only add to the pain between the two of you.
“When necessary, you have to cut them off promptly; you can’t let it drag out. If need be, you have to be heartless.
“Making friends is also quite similar to dating, if you have someone you like, these are also applicable. Remember, don’t be indecisive, as that will be disrespectful to people in the future, understand?”
Lu Ning was still quite serious while listening to the first part, but she could barely hold back her laughter when she heard the latter.
“I got it.”
Shen Yunci patted her arm. “What are you laughing at? You’ll eventually fall in love. I’m telling you these so that you’ll suffer less and won’t be bullied.”
Lu Ning smiled and held her hand. “Then I’ll find someone who will never bully me.”
