Chapter Fifty-Three Do You Still Remember Those Past Years?

  "Tomorrow, how do you want to go there?" Yu Xia saw her son spacing out and gently pushed him, asking.

  "It was just a sudden thought to go there and experience the grandeur of one of China's four major Buddhist holy lands. Guo Ming's eyes cleared up, and he replied in a soft voice."

  "So when are you planning to go? Yu Xia didn't worry at all about her son's trip, the title of "Fighting King" wasn't given for nothing. In the past, her own son didn't know how to hold back and only knew how to fight fiercely, even though he rarely lost, she still couldn't help but feel a nameless worry. Being strong and impulsive is not a good phenomenon. A treasured sword should be kept in its scabbard, one can go further if they know how to endure."

  In the past two months, her son has clearly done all of this well. He is not arrogant or impetuous in his actions, and he doesn't just bury his head in hard work; he also takes some time out to relax and have fun. His grades have reached the top level, but she hasn't seen him show off to anyone about it. Tang Feng also found out from Shui Mengyao that Guo Ming had made a bet with someone, but he didn't cause any trouble for the other person; in fact, when he saw them, he would actively avoid them so as not to make things difficult for them.

  The son has already reached the mental level of an adult, and even ordinary villains can't get close to him, so he really doesn't have much to worry about when going out.

  "En, buy tickets tomorrow, leave the day after tomorrow," Guo Ming thought for a moment before saying.

  "The day after tomorrow? So soon? Why not wait until after the college entrance exam?" Shui Mengyao exclaimed in surprise. Ráo was aware of Guō Míng's efficiency, but he couldn't help being surprised at this moment as well.

  "Right, wait until July and you can go out with Meng Yao to have some fun. Why leave so early? Yu Xia just thought that her son had planned a trip with Meng Yao to cultivate their feelings, but now she realizes it's not the case at all."

  "Right, I've been there once, it's a bit familiar, I can be the guide. Water Dream Jade not only has a good impression of Guo Ming, but also has a sense of guilt in her heart. At this time, she couldn't care about Yu Xia being here, nor could she care about the girl's reserve, and immediately spoke up."

  When a girl feels guilty towards a man, as long as they can continue to interact with each other, it will soon turn into love. Especially when the girl chases after the man, the speed of this transformation will undoubtedly increase several times.

  Shui Mengyao was different from Guo Ming, she had always had a dream of becoming the top scorer in the county, so she couldn't be as carefree as Guo Ming, saying goodbye and leaving just like that. She still needed some time to do some practice questions. Now hearing that Guo Ming was going to leave, her heart suddenly felt empty.

  Guo Ming shook his head and said, "Everyone has to walk an unfamiliar road, at birth and when leaving. I'm going to Emei not just for sightseeing, but also to calm down alone."

  "But isn't it very lonely for one person to go? Isn't the meaning of life to let it bloom with beautiful colors? Yuxiao obviously didn't want to give up, and immediately replied."

  "Hehe, you're still young and don't understand, Guo Ming didn't want to explain any grand principles to her, so he directly threw out this seemingly lethal answer."

  Shui Mengyao was speechless for a moment, then pouted and said: "Are you older than me?"

  "When you think about the problem, do you like to support your chin with your hand? Guo Ming directly avoided the substantial issue, of course he was very clear that Shui Mengyao was three days older than himself, and immediately turned away from this topic."

  Shui Mengyao thought for a moment and nodded her head.

  "And do you like watching anime?" Guo Ming continued to ask.

  "Uh-huh, yeah, I like watching Japan's Naruto, and...". Upon hearing this, Shuǐ Mèng Yāo immediately looked delighted.

  Guo Ming immediately interrupted her, staring at her calmly: "From a psychological perspective, this is an expression of your immaturity. In other words, although you are actually 16 years old, your mental age is younger. What's important for a person is not their actual age, but their mental age. Do you understand? Don't glare at me, everything I say can be found in books."

  This kid is still pretending to be tough, but he's being too cautious. Yu Xia enjoys watching the two of them bickering and doesn't interrupt, just smiling and watching them. But looking at Guo Ming's scolding posture, it seems a bit excessive, so she hurriedly gives him a signal with her eyes.

  "You, you, you bully people. Shui Mengyao can't win against Guo Ming, so she glares at him, but he opens his eyes even wider than hers. The little girl is unhappy, who isn't catering to her every whim? But when it comes to Guo Ming, how come this doesn't work? Tears of grievance keep swirling in her eye sockets, and it seems that if Guo Ming says one more word that displeases her, they will immediately overflow."

  Guo Ming had a headache, must he compromise himself? It seemed not to work, after all, he was a man. Wait, no, it was his fault, okay? He was a strong kid and definitely couldn't cry, got it?

  Shui Mengyao found it somewhat amusing, was there really someone advising her like this? Her tears showed some signs of flowing back, but she still wrinkled her delicate nose and pretended to be heartbroken.

  Guo Ming sensed her implication, ever since she cultivated the Water Path, her sensitivity to tears was exceptionally keen, and he saw through Water Dream Jade's play in one glance, but he couldn't possibly expose it, could he?

  Glancing at her mother, Yu Xia's eyes were full of slyness, and she didn't say a word.

  Guo Ming had no choice but to say: "Meng Yao, do you know why I'm making such rapid progress in my studies?"

  Two pairs of eyes quickly turned to Guo Ming, this question has always been a mystery to them, and unexpectedly Guo Ming actually said it out loud.

  In the midst of their expectant gazes, Guo Ming began his boastful journey. "Meng Yao, do you know that you're really too excellent? Do you remember? Eight years ago, one day, you came to find me and wanted to play together, but in the end, I got beaten up by my brother. From then on, I vowed to surpass my brother. Dad didn't allow me to learn martial arts, so I became a neighborhood troublemaker. But the real reason was that I wanted to defeat my brother. Now that I've succeeded, I should calm down and focus on studying. However, I realized you're far better than me, so I secretly studied every day until 3 or 4 in the morning. You saw me skipping class, but actually, I was studying outside. It can be said that I owe my good grades today to you, Meng Yao; your contribution is invaluable."

  This remark made Shui Mengyao feel embarrassed, and she couldn't recall what Guo Ming said about her childhood. With an awkward expression, her pretty face turned slightly red as she said: "I'm not as excellent as you say, actually it's mainly because you're smart."

  Guo Ming looked at Shui Mengyao for a moment, and let out a soft sigh. You really don't remember, do you? Some things you might be able to forget, but how could I possibly forget? It's etched in my bones, impossible to erase. You can never imagine the desperation of a little boy being brutally kicked to the ground, isolated and helpless.
