Looking at Ji Feng's calm and sincere expression, as well as the fleeting trace of vicissitudes and self - mockery in his eyes, Xiao Yuxuan seemed to follow Ji Feng back to his childhood for a moment. She could clearly feel the disdain and humiliation that Ji Feng had suffered throughout his childhood. The feeling of being isolated from the whole world made Xiao Yuxuan's heart ache.
What kind of a young man is this!
He has the hardships that most of his peers don't have. He has endured disdain since he was a child. But looking at his current expression, he is very calm, as if none of this had happened to him.
What's more important is that this young man knows how to repay kindness. Even the care that she, as a teacher, showed to her student was secretly remembered by him, and he was grateful and gave her full trust. This is undoubtedly the best reward!
However, with such a state of mind and an attitude of being grateful for kindness, what kind of hardships has this young man, who is a little taller than herself, endured?
For a moment, Xiao Yuxuan felt a sour nose and a heavy feeling in her chest, as if there was a big stone pressing on it.
Seeing Xiao Yuxuan's expression, Ji Feng frowned and said, "Teacher Xiao, I'm telling you this not to prove anything. I'm just very grateful for your concern. Really!"
Ji Feng said these just to express his gratitude to Xiao Yuxuan, but that doesn't mean he needs others' sympathy and pity. Now, Ji Feng doesn't need anyone's pity. He has the ability and confidence to reach a height that others can't reach and can only look up to step by step!
Xiao Yuxuan was stunned for a moment, and then quickly said, "Ji Feng, you misunderstood. As a teacher, or as an elder sister, I'm very sad about your encounter. But I don't have other ideas, and I don't mean to sympathize with you. Do you understand?"
"Good!" Ji Feng smiled slightly and regained his previous free - and - easy manner. He smiled and said, "So, Sister Yuxuan, just keep the money there. We can talk about it when I need the money. What do you think?"
"Ji Feng, this is not impossible! But... things like money are better kept by yourself. It's not that sister is afraid of trouble. It's an attitude towards money. Many people may gradually become estranged from their close friends just for a few hundred yuan or even a few yuan. So, when it comes to money, the attitude must be correct. Do you understand what I mean?"
Xiao Yuxuan slightly frowned her beautiful eyebrows. There was a trace of worry on her pretty face, which made people feel pity. Ji Feng was also moved. He quickly averted his eyes, for fear that he might lose control and make a fool of himself or do something out of line on the spot. Then he really wouldn't have the face to see Xiao Yuxuan.
After calming down a little, Ji Feng coughed lightly and then said, "I understand what you mean, and I know you're doing this for my good. But..."
Speaking of this, he had a troubled look on his face. "But I don't know how to handle this money! Sister Yuxuan, don't laugh at me. If I take this money home rashly, I'm afraid my mother's heart can't bear it. Our family hasn't seen so much money in recent years, and I don't have a bank card myself..."
Xiao Yuxuan immediately smiled understandingly and said, "So that's it. Then sister will keep it for you for the time being. You can take it back whenever you want!"
"Thank you, Sister Yuxuan!" Ji Feng immediately said gratefully. "By the way, Sister Yuxuan, except for my school, there's no place in our family that needs so much money. If you need it, Sister Yuxuan, you can use it without telling me!"
"Don't worry, little guy. Sister has enough money!" Seeing that Ji Feng was about to explain, she immediately smiled and said, "If you keep talking, it will seem like you're bribing the teacher!"
Ji Feng could only nod with a wry smile. "Sister Yuxuan, I won't talk anymore!"
The two of them couldn't help but smile. Unconsciously, the distance between them became closer.
However, Ji Feng didn't know that at this time, Xiao Yuxuan was deeply touched in her heart. What has Ji Feng experienced to make him have such a mature state of mind far beyond his age?
You know, if other peers suddenly got such a sum of money, those with good character would surely be very happy to take the money home, let their parents know that they could also earn money, or buy gifts for their parents and relatives to make them happy. Those with bad character might just squander and waste it, or use the money to do something bad.
But few people, like Ji Feng, after getting the money, first consider the situation at home and even directly stand in the mother's position to worry whether the mother can bear this sudden surprise. How could such a mature state of mind be that of a high - school student? Even many college students are much more childish!
"It seems that if I want to know what Ji Feng has experienced, I need to make a home visit..." Xiao Yuxuan thought to herself.
Ji Feng sent Xiao Yuxuan back to school. On the way, the two of them didn't mention the topics of family or money anymore. Instead, they sat on the bus and Ji Feng introduced the various buildings and the origins of the locations in the county town to Xiao Yuxuan from time to time. Soon, they arrived at the school.
Looking at Ji Feng's receding figure, Xiao Yuxuan stood at the school gate for a long time. Although there were not many words on the way, she could feel that besides having a calm and good state of mind, Ji Feng also had a heart that was striving upwards and daring to struggle. It was a kind of vigorous and unyielding pride in the face of adversity.
Xiao Yuxuan remembered a saying, "Adversity breeds talent!".
She thought that this saying was not very accurate. What comes out of adversity is not talent, but a heart that pursues progress and works hard, and a kind of unyielding and indomitable fighting spirit!
With this heart and this kind of fighting spirit, anyone can become a talent!
Xiao Yuxuan suddenly thought of the lottery incident this afternoon. Logically speaking, with Ji Feng's stable state of mind, how could he take a bold gamble on the unreliable lottery?
It's not hard to infer from Ji Feng's words that his family situation is not wealthy, which makes it even more strange.
Could it be that Ji Feng was really provoked by Xu Mo and then got carried away and took a desperate gamble? This is not the behavior of a mature state of mind.
Looking back carefully, Ji Feng seemed as stable as a mountain at that time, as if he had everything under control. In the end, Ji Feng really made a big profit. Is this really a coincidence?
For a moment, Xiao Yuxuan found that she couldn't understand this young man who was several years younger than herself even more. Her curiosity grew stronger, and she became more interested in Ji Feng!
"I must find a time to make a home visit to Ji Feng's family!" Xiao Yuxuan murmured to herself.
