I scratched my hair and looked at the busy street in front of me gloomily. I was thinking about how to persuade Du Wen to return to school.
"You must not have imagined that every time our mentors meet and fight, I'm actually looking forward to it. Because then I can see you. You're so busy, and I can't find enough reasons to get to know you, so I'm also very depressed. Can you understand this feeling?”The more Du Wen spoke, the more emotional he became. It seemed that he was really drunk.
"..." I felt a little awkward and didn't answer.
"But I'm so disappointed because I don't know what you're thinking. I've worked hard for so long and finally got this opportunity. I thought that this would give me the chance to work with you, but why? You didn't submit the application form?" Du Wen lowered his head and clenched his fists on his knees. His voice was slightly higher than before as he asked in annoyance.
I finally understood why Du Wen had asked me out tonight, but I wasn't surprised or confused at all because I was already used to it. In the past two days, everyone seemed to be talking to me about the student council election. I didn't submit the application form. The professor was anxious, Chairman Zhou was anxious, and Lan Gege was anxious. Now, it seemed that even Du Wen, who I wasn't familiar with, was also anxious.
"Yes, I didn't plan to do that in the first place. This is what the professor wants. I personally don't want to participate in the election.”I moved the strap of my satchel to my chest so that I could rest it on my knees.”
Duwin didn't react for a long time. After his brain completely analyzed what I said, Duwin's face began to stiffen. After a long time, he muttered,"I can completely understand, but I can't accept it at all. At the same time, I can't approve of it at all!”
I smiled disapprovingly and looked down at the tip of my shoes." Du Wen, thank you for praising me so much, but I'm not the ideal person you think I am. I just want to be a little more relaxed. I'm only selectively doing things that others have arranged for me. There are many people who are better than me, but I might not be the most suitable person. Do you understand what I mean? As long as everyone is willing to work hard, they will have a chance. You are so driven and proactive. I think you should have a lot of room for development.”I sincerely said to Duwen.
"I know all of this. Professor Zhang is always encouraging me like this.”Du Wen held his ankles with both hands and said disapprovingly," I don't have such great ambitions. The reason why I agreed to participate in the election for Professor Zhang is to train my ability and learn more. On the one hand, I want to follow someone I recognize from the bottom of my heart. The two of us can work hard together to get through this long period of the election. It seemed that I was too idealistic. I really didn't expect my second goal to be destroyed so quickly.”Du Wen's words made people feel sour.
" I…" I was about to say something apologetically, but I was interrupted by Du Wen's anger.
"Tools! Can you really not reconsider? Is this your final decision?" Du Wen suddenly raised his head and placed his hands on my shoulders. His eyes were filled with anticipation as he said in a hurried tone,"I really want to run for the position of student council member with you. I hope you can run for the position of president, and I can be your subordinate and share your worries. That was my plan from the beginning. You really should use your talent in this area. You still don't know, right? As long as I look at you, my entire body will be filled with motivation. Think about your surroundings. I will definitely stand on Professor Mu's side on this point. Even though I don't know why, the old man seemed to be inexplicably angry whenever he saw me.”
I looked at the excited Du Wen in surprise. Deep in my heart, I was also touched by his persistence. I now believed Lan Gege's evaluation. Du Wen was indeed a trustworthy boy. He was able to insist on what he wanted to fight for, but his starting point wasn't for himself. Most importantly, I could feel Duwin's sincerity.
I stroked my chin and jokingly told him,"Do you want to know why the professor is so sensitive to you? Because he sees you as a potential competitor. If you keep showing up in front of him, of course he will be agitated.”
Du Wen's expression changed when he heard that." Really? I didn't think of that. Alright! "In that case, I've decided." Du Wen sat up straight proudly as if he had seen the dawn of victory. He puffed out his chest and rubbed his hands continuously. The expression on his face became energetic."I've decided!" From tomorrow onwards, I will appear in front of Professor Mu at all times. Even if I'm beaten to death 'by him, I will not let him have peace.”As he spoke, he would occasionally turn his head to look at my reaction. He continued,"This move is called 'diversion.' I'll first provoke Professor Mu and then put pressure on you. I don't believe that you won't surrender in the end.”
I couldn't help but laugh. How could there be such a person?!
I sighed deeply as I looked ahead. My mind replayed Professor Mu's expectations of me, Lan Gege's worries, Chairman Zhou's advice in the afternoon, and Du Wen's 'threat theory' beside me…Should I really reconsider my position and think about the people around me?
This is a rare opportunity. You should seize it.
This is related to your future. You have to have everything, or you have nothing. You have to understand this fact.
You're so young, you should expand into different fields. You have endless potential. No one knows the outcome of things that you haven't tried.
You are my goal and motivation. I want to work hard with you. Helping you do things is my dream. I beg you, give me a chance to realize my dream, okay?
Am I too stubborn? Was it too selfish? I don't think I should make the people around me sad. No matter what decision I make, I have to find a reasonable and moderate balance that will satisfy everyone. Then, I can only reconsider, make concessions, and make a new choice.
Before I went to bed at night, I received a text message from Du Wen. The content was as follows: ”
I placed my right hand behind my head as a pillow and tidied the corner of the blanket with my left hand. I smiled knowingly and replied," Of course, my future right-hand man.”
After a while, Du Wen sent another message." Yes, boss. I'm always ready to work hard to form the perfect team! Good luck!"
