The Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
The group from Kassel, who had just gotten off the plane, checked into the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
"Lu Ming Fei actually forfeited..." Gudridan's mouth gaped.
He didn't expect Lu Ming Fei to just leave in the end, he thought he had answered the questions very well!
"He probably didn't have confidence..." Ye Sheng, standing next to him, also watched in dismay.
"It seems our S-class isn't anything special." Ye Sheng said.
"How could you say that! I think he's a genius in every way! He's full of inspiration!"
Ye Sheng and Chu Zihang exchanged glances.
The red-haired girl, Nono, pursed her lips, "I think he didn't care whether he passed or not, he never had high hopes to begin with."
-
Lu Lincheng's family watched Lu Ming Fei forfeit in the end.
Lu Ming Ze shrugged, "I knew it, but I didn't expect him to actually forfeit. I thought he would at least hold on for a while."
"This school is clearly not serious. What kind of school asks questions about superpowers and aliens?" The aunt scoffed, "In my opinion, he should just go to college and get a job if he doesn't make it."
Lu Lincheng shook his head, "Sigh! Wouldn't it be better to get in? Even if the interview questions are weird, it's still a prestigious university."
After Lu Ming Ze's previous praise, the uncle had subconsciously believed that the Kassel Academy was a special prestigious university.
-
The Serpent Clan.
Seeing Lu Ming Fei's final decision.
Source One sighed, "Eri, it seems that Lu, oh, Sakura, Sakura has forfeited."
Eri was stunned, seemingly unable to comprehend the outcome.
After a long silence, the girl picked up her pen and began writing and drawing, "Sakura, forfeited? Why?"
"Perhaps, he didn't have confidence." Source One mused, "A person's confidence is shaped by their education and environment. Appearance, grades, personality, relationships, family background, Lu Ming Fei didn't perform well in school, he has a timid personality, his grades were bad, his parents left home early and he lived with his uncle and aunt, and his family environment was even worse."
By the end, even Source One felt a bit of sympathy for this guy.
He thought of his own past, when he lived with his adoptive parents. Although they were also harsh on him, looking back now, it wasn't so bad.
He thought of his younger brother again.
Hearing Source One's words, Eri was confused. She hadn't been exposed to the outside world, she knew nothing about families outside.
All she knew was what Source One had shown her, some cartoons and selected ancient movies.
Everything was aimed at instilling in her the idea that the outside world was terrifying.
Because he wanted to prevent Eri from yearning for the outside world, she had never seen any realistic dramas, news, or reality shows like variety shows.
"Sakura, poor Sakura." Eri held up her small notebook to Source One.
Source One chuckled in his heart, thinking, you're the one who's pitiful.
You should have had a normal life like everyone else.
But fate locked you in a dark realm where you'll never see the light. Other people's families are as mythical and distant to you.
You should be worried about yourself, not Sakura.
-
The wizarding world.
When Harry Potter saw Lu Ming Fei bending down and leaving the interview room.
A sense of sadness surged through his heart.
It felt like he was seeing his own future.
Maybe after high school, he would face the same choice as Lu Ming Fei, either failing to get into university and staying with the Dursleys forever, or working a job.
A sense of oppression surged through Harry Potter's young heart.
-
On the screen.
After Lu Ming Fei left the interview room.
Everyone looked at Lu Ming Fei as he came out.
Su Xiaoyan laughed, "Fastest elimination record."
Zhao Meng Hua didn't look at Lu Ming Fei, he just sat on the chair and looked at the clamshell phone in his hand.
Lu Ming Fei rolled his eyes, ignoring Su Xiaoyan's mockery, and turned to sit next to Chen Wenwen.
"Chen Wenwen, have you decided on the location for the literary society event in a few days?" Lu Ming Fei asked softly.
"Yeah, I've decided. I'll send it to you on QQ later."
Chen Wenwen said with a smile.
"Then I'll head out, Lu Ming Fei, see you later."
Chen Wenwen stood up and waved to Lu Ming Fei.
Lu Ming Fei watched Chen Wenwen's departing back and waved too. Chen Wenwen's departure also prompted others to leave.
Lu Ming Fei didn't follow, he just stared blankly.
He recalled the first time he saw Chen Wenwen.
When he first entered the first year of high school, he saw the girl sitting in the corner, looking like a doll. She was wearing a white short skirt and lace-edged socks around her ankles. She sat alone in the corner, holding a copy of "The Lover" by Marguerite Duras, silently reading.
The light from outside the window slanted onto her side face, half light, half dark, she was as white as translucent.
As for why Su Xiaoyan was so antagonistic towards Lu Ming Fei, the reason is closely related to Chen Wenwen.
At the beginning of the school year, Su Xiaoyan was driven to school in a Mercedes by her coal mine owner father, and they were arguing about who the new class flower would be.
A young man who was clueless said, "It looks like she's the new class flower, the others are nothing special."
Su Xiaoyan, who had always been proud and self-respecting, had never been humiliated like this, so she stomped on the boy's foot and turned to leave.
The boy whose foot was stepped on was Lu Ming Fei.
That's right, Lu Ming Fei liked Chen Wenwen, he was very clear about his feelings.
But when he thought about it, if he went to study abroad, would he never see her again?
Studying abroad, a journey thousands of miles away.
The already distant distance became even more insurmountable, like heaven and earth.
A seed suddenly sprouted in Lu Ming Fei's heart. Lu Ming Fei, are you really going abroad?
-
Su Xiaoyan: "This is where I @ someone. @Chen Wenwen"
Liu Miaomiao: "@Chen Wenwen"
Zhao Meng Hua: "Cut it out."
Chen Wenwen: "...."
Fingol: "Whoa, it seems our protagonist Lu actually has a crush on someone."
Ronald Tang: "You little rascal, even heroes are no match for a beautiful woman. To be held back by a beautiful woman on this important life decision, that's just tough!"
Hermione: "I don't think Lu Ming Fei's thinking is wrong, it's romantic to give up a great opportunity for someone you like."
Ron: "Don't get it."
Arthur: "Kids don't understand, study hard."
Su Xi: "He didn't give up going to school because of Chen Wenwen, did he?"
Su Xiaoyan: "Oh, the romance of youth, I miss those days."
Molly: "Yeah, you could do anything for love, we believed back then that love could conquer everything."
Lupin: "But I think love can still conquer everything."
Yasha: "Why are we suddenly talking about love? When I hear that word, all I can think of is Zu Ai hahaha."
Crow: "Sorry, sorry, this idiot is a fool with his head full of yellow trash, ignore him."
Yabuki Sakura: "Shut up, Yasha."
——
Seeing Lu Ming Fei's memories.
Source One stroked his chin, then observed Eri's reaction.
And he saw Eri's face turn cold again.
Source One nodded secretly, that's the Eri he knows!
——
In the internet cafe, Lu Ming Fei saw a bunch of people @ Chen Wenwen, and he almost tripped and wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
Damn it.
I'm screwed!
I'm so embarrassed!
Lu Ming Fei was overwhelmed with sorrow, he felt everything was so bleak.
The screen continued to play.
-
After Lu Ming Fei left.
A loud voice came from outside.
"Ye Sheng! Aji! How did it go!" An old man rushed in from outside, panting.
Ye Sheng and Chu Zihang exchanged glances, then Ye Sheng said, "Professor Gudridan, all the candidates have left, basically..."
"Don't tell me about them! I only care about Lu Ming Fei! How did Lu Ming Fei do!" Gudridan said excitedly, "How did he answer!"
Ye Sheng and Chu Zihang exchanged glances, Ye Sheng said, "Oh, he, his first answer was that he believes in aliens, and his second answer was that he believes in superpowers."
Ye Sheng slowly described Lu Ming Fei's answers to the old man.
After listening, the old man clapped his hands, "Good, good, good! That's great! He answered perfectly!"
Ye Sheng and Chu Zihang were both stunned.
"Is it really that good?" Ye Sheng murmured.
"In his first answer, he implicitly described the loneliness of light, implying the loneliness of the species, which fits the theme of our Blood Sorrow! In his second answer, he said there's no reason, but there are so many strange things in the world, how can there be so many reasons? Not bad, not bad? What about the third question?"
"I don't know." Ye Sheng said, "He said he didn't know."
"Good! Yes! That's right, he didn't know!" Gudridan clapped his hands in admiration.
This time, not only were Ye Sheng and Chu Zihang dumbstruck, but even the audience was completely dumbfounded.
