Chapter 364 Childhood (Part 1)

Zhang Kun really can't imagine what causes this result.

However, after a long silence, Liu Chengde's gloomy face finally slowly dissipated. He sighed slowly, and Liu Chengde spoke with bitterness on his face.

"Zhang Kun, do you know what my greatest wish in my life is?"

Zhang Kun was stunned at first, then thought for a while: "Yes, keep your father's foundation and then carry it forward?"

Looking back on the fact that since his contact with Liu Chengde, this is Zhang Kun’s most impressive and the sentence that Liu Chengde has said the most. And Liu Chengde is indeed doing this, so it should be this.

However, Liu Chengde shook his head silently. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Kun: "My biggest wish is to surpass my father."

"Huh?" Zhang Kun was obviously stunned.

"It's very strange, right?" Liu Chengde smiled bitterly.

"No, no." Zhang Kun shook his head and said quickly: "Beyond your father, be better than the blue than the blue. Isn't this what many people hope for?"

"It's not that kind of transcendence!" Liu Chengde shook his head silently: "What I mean transcendence is victory."

"I want to defeat my father, I want to tell him that I am better than him." Liu Chengde's voice suddenly increased, and his high-profile voice echoed strongly throughout the room.

After saying this, Liu Chengde gasped violently, as if the words just now had used all his strength.

At this time, Zhang Kun looked at Liu Chengde blankly. The words just now seemed to Liu Chengde treat his father as an enemy, as if he was a target he wanted to defeat no matter what?

He, he is your dad...

As if he noticed Zhang Kun's suspicious gaze, Liu Chengde gasped for a while, then smiled bitterly and spoke again.

"Zhang Kun, maybe I told you before that when my family was a child, I was very poor, very hard, and had a hard time. So at that time, my father taught me that people cannot rely on others because others cannot rely on them."

"You can't rely on the sky. Money will not fall from the sky, nor can you rely on the ground. You won't be given food for no reason in the ground, and even your relatives can't rely on you. Is there little thing that happens when you fly to the disaster? So in the end, the only thing you can rely on is yourself."

"This is what my father repeatedly emphasized to me when I was a child, and it is because of these words that my father said he wanted me to experience it personally. Therefore, since I was ten years old, my father will never give me any help except for the most basic guarantees of food and accommodation."

"I want to study, and I have to earn tuition by myself. I want to eat snacks and earn by myself. I want textbooks, pencils, earn by myself. I want new clothes and earn by myself...."

"Everything, anything except food and accommodation, and anything I want must be done by myself."

"But, I was only ten years old at that time..."

Speaking of this, a trace of gritting teeth flashed across Liu Chengde's eyes, but soon, he slowly sighed.

"Yes, I'm only ten years old, what can I do?"

"But if I want to go to school, I have to earn my own tuition. For that little money, I started working and I have done basically everything I can do."

"I have done washing the restaurant, selling newspapers, delivering milk, delivering things to others, etc. In short, I can think of and do basically everything I can do."

"But I was young at that time, even if I did things, how much could I do? And I still have to go to school."

"Sometimes, I see other children of the same age holding lollipops, eating delicious bread, and drinking sweet milk, but I never dare to buy it. I don't have money, I make some money by selling newspapers and working, but for the sake of tuition, I have to endure it."

"No snacks, no new clothes, and even no time to play. I worked hard just to earn my own tuition. But half a year passed, and when it was my turn to pay the tuition for the first time, I found that my money was still not enough."

"Yes, it's not enough, and it's far from enough, not even half of the tuition."

"At that time, my father sneered, 'Look, this is your ability. After half a year of hard work, you can't even earn your own tuition. I'll give you food and accommodation. What if there is no such thing?"

"When I heard this, I felt so bitter, so sore and sore."

"Why, when other children of peers live carefree, but I need to do this? They can play happily, they have lollipops, new clothes, bread and milk."

"And what about me? I'm going to work, I'm going to deliver milk, I'm going to wash dishes, I'm going to sell newspapers..."

"Those hardships are actually nothing in my heart. I don't complain, but why, even if I worked hard, I won't get a sarcasm from my father, but instead of a sarcasm?"

"I really don't believe it, but it was from then on that time that I finally remembered that sentence."

"Not relying on the heaven, no earth, no family, only relying on yourself!"

"Since then, I learned to be independent. The first time I had a tuition issue, I finally borrowed half of the money from my father, and then I paid it!"

"Yes, it's borrowing. Although my mother wanted to give me money quietly many times later, I didn't even ask for it because I wanted my father to know that I could do it even if I didn't rely on them."

"Then, I worked harder. Originally, I went out to do things for about four hours a day except for going to school. But since then, I worked for at least seven or eight hours a day, and went out to deliver milk and newspapers before dawn every day. I had to wait until it was dark and I didn't go home for dinner."

"At the beginning, I was tired every day and cried in bed, but every time at this time, the words my father had said would ring in my ears, and then I continued to stick to it the next day."

"That's it, one month, two months, half a year..."

"I can make more and more money. The debt I borrowed from my father was paid off in the third month, and when I paid the tuition for the second time, I was able to pay it all by myself."

"When I paid the tuition myself, I looked full of joy. Although the hard work of half a year has made me physically and mentally exhausted, I think it is worth it because I did it."

"When I happily took the tuition payment form to my parents, my father took a look, then threw the payment form on the table and looked at me faintly."

‘It’s been half a year, and I can only earn my own tuition. If I were you, I could support a family with such hard work.”

"Just like such a light sentence, my hard work in getting up early and getting into the dark for half a year seems to have become less valuable in an instant."

"On that day, I finally understood the meaning of what my father said again, and since then, my words between me and I have started to be less. I go out early and come back late every day to earn my own tuition, and my father also works hard to support the family."
