In my inner world, I won’t allow anyone to bully you. As long as soone bullies you, even if I have to exhaust all I have, abandon my life, I will stand up to protect you.
Ran Zhihan watched Old Master Zhang smiling so much that his mouth couldn’t close. He knew this was the life he wanted too; this was the kind of life an old man needed the most. It was the best way to repay an elder, and he wanted to know how he should make everything extraordinary, ensuring that all these mories remain in this family’s mind forever.
"Grandpa, it’s already hard for our family to reunite, so let’s not dwell on unhappy things. Living harmoniously as a family is enough, and this is the life you desire. It’s also the life I want to protect the most. I’ve missed out on too much in the past, and now I just want to make up for everything I missed. This life of ours is truly not easy.
You have sacrificed so much for our family’s happiness, yet we’ve never truly repaid you. Now, we want to show you through our efforts and actions that we’re willing to give up our own principles for you, because you provided us with a different life, granting us today’s happiness. The state of our family today is all thanks to you, and we are filled with gratitude towards you. Please accept our thanks, and let’s eternally preserve this warm image in our minds, ensuring it never fades away in this lifeti!"
Old Master Zhang was deeply touched hearing his granddaughter-in-law’s words. He never imagined that the once naive girl has now learned to repay her kin.
"Child, you’ve truly grown up. In the past, you never knew how to repay others, but now you’ve matured. Every decision you’ve made fills your grandpa with pride and joy, not for any other reason but because watching your growth makes proud. You must also know how difficult maturity is for a person. Maturity signifies a transformative change in one’s life. You’ve matured, which proves you’ve experienced all that should be experienced. Believe , your future life will be wonderful!"
"In that case, thank you, Grandpa, for your kind words. Borrowing your auspicious words, I believe my future life will indeed be different.
Most of the life I have now is thanks to your guidance. Without you, how could I have today’s insights?
Everyone grows through constant understanding in life, and my journey has led here step by step. I’ve experienced many ups and downs in relationships, yet I’ve never given up. Because I understand that as long as I persist with my beliefs, no matter what trials life throws my way, the heavens will ultimately give a perfect answer!"
Ran Zhihan understood this principle because long ago soone told him that ti is kind, and it will offer answers you neither anticipate nor obtain. Ti will always consider your life’s perspective, but perhaps because life rushes by, it subjects you to trials, making the pursuit of happiness increasingly elusive.
Ran Zhihan didn’t know what attitude he should adopt towards life. He didn’t know what beliefs should determine his path. He only knew that he should give everything for the man he loves, even at the expense of his life. The world is only so big; if missed, it will be missed forever. Regardless of the errors made or the struggles endured in this life, as long as he can be with his beloved, no grievance will be too great. As long as the light in his heart remains, he will always be with his beloved, never parting.
Yet, his inner being knew more than anyone that fantasy remains just that, never transforming into reality.
Having a fantasy is important; without dreams, what purpose does living serve? However, living only in dreams holds no aning either. The world is fair; the price paid often determines the outco received. A person’s life is considered plain and unremarkable, for none are born with life’s brilliance. Through hard work alone can one ensure their dignity remains untarnished.
"In reality, the achievents both of you have today are entirely due to your own hard work; there’s no gratuitous help from others. When people help you, they will eventually expect a return. Your heart must understand what difficulties you’ve faced before, impacting the kinds of trials you may face in the future. This sense of life appreciation is true for everyone, isn’t it?"
Zhang Ni listened to Old Master Zhang but couldn’t comprehend anything, simply bewilderedly observing the interaction between his parents and great-grandfather. He realized he might never understand as a child, nor did he expect to grasp it fully. All he needed was to appreciate having such parents, who never abandoned him despite hardships. To him, this was the greatest love in life, the most selfless and touching love.
"Mom, Dad, what are you talking about? Why can’t I understand any of it? Can you talk about sothing I can understand too? You adults are chatting away, leaving , a child, bored on the side!"
"Children may not understand, and that’s okay. Maybe soday you’ll grow up and understand what Mom and Dad are saying. You’ll receive such gifts one day. Rember, every step not taken becos your life’s most beautiful mory. When you look back on everything you’ve done, you’ll find it was your life’s finest mont!"
I just wish for us to stay together simply, without desires or demands.
