Volume 1 Chapter 24 Transformation
"What a weirdo." A young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes glanced at the room for a visit, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Huh, is that the little girl?" Another young man who always had a smile on his face showed even more interest.
"Do you know him?"
"It's nothing, but she really is a weirdo." He smiled, "Do you know which family's young lady she is?"
"Ask and you'll know," his companion glanced at him carelessly, "What? You've taken a liking to her? This little girl looks like she's only fourteen or fifteen, can you really bring yourself to do it?"
"You don't know that I'm just holding back this mouth?" He hugged his arms and smiled, but a hint of gloominess appeared on his sunny face.
"Companion chuckled and said, 'Who doesn't know that Yan San likes to play differently? Alright, I'll indulge you.'"
"No," Yan San raised an eyebrow, "it's not fun to have it delivered right to your doorstep. This kind of freak needs to be teased slowly, watching her struggle painfully, watching her beg for mercy in fear, this is the ultimate pleasure."
"Ptoo," his companion spat at him without hesitation, "You're really a pervert!"
"Do you have anything else to say? Hurry up." Fang Zixuan glanced at her watch, "There's still one minute left."
"Fang Zixuan, can't you have some humanity?!"
She furrowed her brow in puzzlement, gazing at him with an expression still serious, as if asking herself where she had failed to show a spark of humanity.
He rolled his eyes, suppressing his sorrow and anger, forget it, he still needed her now, so he wouldn't settle accounts with her for the time being.
"The time is almost up, sign your name on this." Fang Zixuan handed him the notebook in her hand.
"My god!" Fang Zipeng stared at the dense records on the notebook, his scalp numb, and he didn't even have the energy to make a sarcastic comment. It wasn't just him, the relatives who came to visit nearby also cast shocked glances at the two of them when they heard the commotion. What's the difference between this family visit and making a police record?
"This little girl from the Zhang family is really a freak! The young man outside the door also exclaimed, using his hand to gesture to his head, "Is there something wrong with this place? How interesting, how interesting, too interesting!"
This sentence speaks out for everyone's heart voice, even including old man Zhang who saw Fang Zi Xuan's record notebook.
This thing is really done in a somewhat unbelievable way, can't my own granddaughter really be overcorrecting and getting sick from copying books? In the past, wasn't it often said that the Confucian classics would make people stupid and dull, without any spirit? Fang Zixuan's current situation isn't exactly the same as what those books say about corrupt Confucians having a similar flavor?
Even if Zhang Lao Ye Zi had been through many ups and downs in his official career, he was still frightened by Fang Zi Xuan, this is the flesh of his daughter's heart, if he knew that she had been taught to be like this, then the consequences would be unthinkable.
Is the Four Books and Five Classics really a great poison? Mr. Zhang looked at the books on the table with an uncertain expression. He had received revolutionary education in his early years, and it wasn't until he was older that he picked up the Four Books and Five Classics to read. They were beneficial for cultivating one's character and nurturing one's nature, but Fang Zixuan was still young after all, and her worldview hadn't taken shape yet. If they were to instill these things in her at this time, who knows what kind of unfavorable influence it might have on her?
"Dad, it's not as serious as you think." Zhang Qi, the eldest son of Old Man Zhang, looked tired and skeptical. He had been attending meetings all night and was already half dead with exhaustion, but his father still dragged him here to discuss his niece's affairs. To be honest, he didn't have a good impression of this girl, Fang Xuan. The things she did outside might not be entirely clear to the two old men, but he knew them all too well. As a girl, she didn't know how to respect herself or love herself, no wonder others looked down on her. He was fed up with wasting his energy on such a self-destructive girl.
"You rascal," Old Man Zhang was hot-tempered and didn't care that his own son now held a high-ranking position, he still shouted and scolded, "That's your sister's daughter, your niece, and you have the nerve to behave like this!"
"Just because she's my niece, I've been covering for her. Otherwise, with her temper, she'd have ended up in the police station long ago!" Zhang Qi's temper was just like his father's, and now he was shouting in discontent. Over the years, he had helped her get out of so many troubles, but she never knew when to stop, making him, as her uncle, worry endlessly.
"You——" Old Zhang pointed at him with a trembling finger, furious beyond words.
"Grandpa, don't get angry first." Zhang Congwen, who was also called back home in the middle of the night, had a similar temperament to Cheng Li, and was much more easy-going. Every time the father and son quarreled, it was always him who mediated, "I heard that after the car accident, Zi Xuan has become well-behaved, going to school every day and cutting off ties with those old friends of hers. I think she's turned over a new leaf, if she's determined to change her ways for the better, that's a good thing..."
Zhang Qi snorted in laughter, not believing that the thoroughly bad rebellious little girl would change her ways and once again incur Old Man Zhang's wrath.
Zhang Songwen flipped through the "record" handed over by Fang Zixuan to Old Master Zhang, and in his heart, he was both surprised and amused. From a professional point of view, it could be considered a very perfect record, and many young people who had just started working might not be able to write such a clear record.
Although the handwriting is hasty, it's not sloppy, without a single typo, obviously putting Fang Zikai's words on paper in their original form. Moreover, given Fang Zikai's chaotic narrative level, it's probably impossible to achieve such logic and orderliness. It can be seen that while hastily writing down, she also polished it up. A 14 or 15-year-old girl, who has been misbehaving and not studying since childhood, always having typos throughout her compositions, how could she become a completely different person in such a short time?
It can't be that I've been possessed or crossed over, Zhang Songwen thought with a wry smile. Although he thought so, who would take it seriously? Growing up in the Zhang family environment, there were too many people around him who were insincere, and his ability to accept things had long been honed stronger than ordinary people.
Those who call each other brothers and friends may stab you in the back; those elegant ladies may be promiscuous women; while those spoiled rich kids may have true loyalty and genuine emotions.
Perhaps Fang Zixuan is also a person who uses her gentle appearance to conceal her true nature, perhaps now she no longer wants to hide herself, or perhaps the car accident really made her have a great awakening and change her ways. There are countless possible reasons that led to her transformation, but for him, none of these matter, he has always been someone who values results over reasons.
