Chapter 793: From Ying Huaixia’s Perspective, the Burden is in the Heart
Ying Huaixia thought about a lot of things, from childhood to the present, and was able to pick up all the details he remembered.
When talking about Ying Huaixia, most people would think of him as excellent, smart, and calm; but if he were to evaluate himself, the most common thing he would say is that he is mediocre, hypocritical, and reckless.
When he was very young, he actually had no concept of comparison or vanity, and he didn't know that people of the same age or generations would be compared. Qin Xian, Shen Xiu, and the younger Gu Yujing and Si Yehong were all good friends.
But then one time, he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and got up to review yesterday's homework. The next day in class, he happened to be randomly checked on the content of the review. That day, he received extra praise from the teacher and sparkling eyes from his friends.
That was the first time he experienced the joy of having his vanity satisfied, and realized that people are different, and that differences lead to different results. The better he is, the more joy he will have today.
So, he learned to study and train faster and with more content than others. It was very painful, but the praise and attention he got in exchange for the pain made him happier, especially from his family. Gradually, it became a habit for him to use hard work and his talent that was indeed better than others to exchange for recognition and praise from others.
Of course, along with the praise and recognition comes more responsibility. Ying Huaixia considers himself not a helpful person and has little sympathy, but after seeing the same look in the eyes of those in need, he chose to take responsibility.
As a result, he gradually became the best child in the eyes of others and the backbone of his peers and the entire family.
When he saw Qin Xian working so hard but being judged as mediocre, he did not feel any sarcasm in his heart, but was filled with sadness and worry. Because he knew better than anyone that his apparent excellence and talent were the result of no less than Qin Xian's hard work, absorbing the highlights of everyone around him and turning them into his own, accumulated bit by bit.
As time went by, he had different faces in front of different people, and could accordingly gain their favor and praise. The praises became more and more, but when he sat alone late at night, he was often in a trance and could not tell which side was the real him.
Until one day, he met the legendary figure, the Dragon Emperor of District Nine, Shen Fuguang.
When the figure that even dimmed the sunlight easily blocked all dangers, Ying Huaixia felt for the first time the unreachable height, the kind of height that was unattainable no matter how hard he tried, and the feeling of powerlessness.
Ying Huaixia still remembers that he smiled and sighed at that time: "As expected of Dragon Emperor Fu Guang."
But in his heart, besides the sincere praise, he was afraid of being discovered by others for his mediocrity. Even though he knew that there were always people better than him and that he had a morbid mentality of comparison, that fear still took root in his heart. He didn't even dare to go home that day, thinking wildly, would his family ask him if he thought he could surpass the Dragon Emperor?
That’s terrifying just thinking about it.
But no one asked, so he became worried again - is it because no one thinks I can compare to him and has no expectations of me at all?
He wanted to test his family's attitude.
But the parents are accustomed to and satisfied with the level of their own habits, and they show unparalleled trust in him. Even if they discover the child's uneasiness, they choose to believe it.
Your great grandmother, who taught you personally, paid great attention to you and was also extremely strict with you, gave you an unattainable goal - you can try to surpass the Dragon Emperor.
Ying Huaixia felt the imposed fear and the loneliness of not being understood, but the unwillingness in his heart also gave him other ideas.
So, he used his strengths of being able to face many different people and tried his best to make friends with Fu Guang. But surprisingly, the Dragon Emperor was surprisingly friendly. Even though he said "uneasy boy" in a blunt way, he still waved and invited him to "come over", and then let him follow him and learn things that his family and relatives could not teach him.
Fu Guang, just like his name, was a man Ying Huaixia learned from him to be relieved, to admit that he was not a unique genius. And he found that it was not something that was completely unacceptable. At least, imperceptibly, he recognized and acknowledged Fu Guang's ability from the bottom of his heart, and was encouraged rather than afraid.
Even though Fu Guang treated the beast-like girl with a worthless look, and said in a love-brained way that it was the girl who made him the Dragon Emperor he is today, it did not prevent Ying Huaixia from recognizing him, and even made her admire his kindness and righteousness even more.
Consulting with outstanding colleagues is like having an additional mentor and friend.
When Ying Huaixia felt that even if he could not surpass this legend, he could still live out his own style, the surprise came before relief.
Due to the deterioration of the relationship between the Greater District and District 9, the two of them had less contact and their relationship naturally became a little more unfamiliar.
Ying Huaixia tried hard to mediate between the family, the big district and District Nine, and helped Fu Guang get the chance to protect the little girl. After delaying it for several years, the storm still came unexpectedly.
There is a suspected passage or treasure connecting to the outside world deep in the old ruins of the northern boundary, which has caused frequent abnormal movements in the old ruins and requires elite troops to enter and investigate.
As for the only possible candidate to enter the uninhabited area of the frozen land, Dragon Emperor Fu Guang was naturally pushed forward.
Ying Huaixia was panicked because he knew very well that it was a road of no return. He didn't understand why Fu Guang wanted to go. He saw the situation more clearly than anyone else.
But he didn't have time to ask. So, he received an order to nominally support Fu Guang but actually cut off Fu Guang's retreat, and led his team into the old ruins of Beijie, hoping to find Fu Guang and stop him from dying.
But fate plays tricks on us.
He failed to see Fu Guang, but was stopped in the wilderness by the alien [Strangulation] and severely injured. When he woke up again, he heard the bad news that Fu Guang had died and he himself had become a disabled person.
It really was like the sky was falling.
Now, no matter how excellent or not, how hard you work, whether you are alive or dead, it’s all in vain.
Ying Huaixia's injuries could have allowed him to get out of bed in a month, but he caused himself to lie in bed half-dead for half a year. However, he still couldn't die. The people who loved him didn't want to see him die, and he himself... was also unwilling to do so, but he didn't have the strength to do so.
He was in this state of confusion for an unknown period of time, when suddenly one day he heard some news:
Hua Changle, the adopted daughter of the Hua family, went crazy. She destroyed Hua Qingyun's project, tarnished Hua Xiange's reputation, kicked Hua Yuezhi who was almost disabled, and harmed Hua Wuyan's girlfriend. The entire Hua family was turned upside down.
Ying Huaixia was stunned for a long time before he suddenly remembered.
Hua Changle, Changle... This is the little guy that Fu Guang tried his best to protect.
A surge of strength suddenly surged in his heart, supporting him to get up and run to Area 3 to secretly take a look at the little girl.
It was a foggy day. He was standing in a corner of the park downstairs from Huajia Lunling Group and saw a little girl curled up and sobbing on a bench. Next to her stood a young man who could not hide his worry and heartache.
Ying Huaixia laughed.
Chang Le has not forgotten Fu Guang. She is seeking revenge on the Hua family and the district. How crazy!
So what about him? What is he going to do?
