Liu Xun closed his eyes, sighed, and whispered to himself: "It's so cold up there, dancing with my shadow, how can it be like being in the human world? I used to think this was just a beautiful phrase, but now... I know its true meaning."
"There is no such thing as perfection in the world. Whatever you gain, you are destined to lose! Because this world is fair. You have to lose what you gain, and you have to give up something to gain." Mu Feiyan's eyes flashed with memories, as if she remembered something unhappy. After she finished speaking, she left Liu Xun's room.
Di Yi looked at Mu Feiyan's back, frowned slightly, then looked at Liu Xun and said, "We will return to China tomorrow, you should be careful when you go to England!"
After Emperor Yi finished speaking, he left the room, leaving Liu Xun alone. He walked to the window sill, looked down, and then looked up at the dark night sky. The moon was bright, and the stars in the sky were twinkling...
People are humble to nature, but they are not satisfied with the status quo! When a person reaches a goal, he will move towards the goal he dared not think of before. When he achieves this goal, his ambition will expand again!
Liu Xun is also a human being, not a god, so he also has this idea. There is a saying that goes, the higher you stand, the more afraid you will be! The reason for fear is not because of fear of falling, nor because of acrophobia, but because you see things that people below cannot see.
Ordinary people strive for daily food and clothing. They yearn to reach the peak of their lives, but they don’t know that the peak in their minds does not exist at all, because they have never seen the world clearly.
That’s right, everyone has a worldview in their hearts. The higher you stand, the farther you see, and at the same time, you see things that scare you!
After learning about the family, Liu Xun felt his own insignificance. When he personally experienced the gap between himself and the Japanese ninjas, he knew what fear felt like. When he saw Situ Ying die in front of him, he knew what it meant to be powerless...
Fate always plays tricks on him. Every time when Liu Xun thinks he can stand on his own, he finds himself back to the starting point.
"It seems that I need that hydrogen bomb! I'm sorry, Ryan, I can't fulfill my promise to you, because I want to control my own destiny, I can't allow... the future war to spread to China! I'm really sorry, please forgive my selfishness..."
Compared with Ryan, Liu Xun is undoubtedly selfish, because Ryan died for the peace of the world, but Liu Xun just wants to do his best to protect China, even if it means breaking his oath and taking the hydrogen bomb for himself, and leaving innocent souls in other countries, Liu Xun will not hesitate!
Those who are not of my race must have different hearts!
It's morning in the United States, the sun is rising, and it's shining brightly. It's nighttime in China, some people may have fallen asleep, while others may still be in the nightclub, taking off the hypocritical mask of the daytime, and venting...
This is how the world is. Even if the United Nations forced the broadcast to be broadcast worldwide and it caused a great shock at the time, for ordinary people, their own lives are still important. To hell with other people's affairs, they are just themselves.
"Hey, Liu Xun, are you up? I bought you breakfast, eat it quickly." As soon as Liu Xun opened the door of the room, Hell came over with a hamburger and milk.
"Why are you eating this kind of junk food?" It has to be said that although hamburgers are very popular in China, they are indeed junk food in the United States.
"I walked downstairs and saw a hamburger vendor! You know, I'm a lazy person, so..." Hell shrugged and said with a smile.
"Uh... I see. Have you booked the flight?" Liu Xun took the hamburger and milk and started eating. Although it was junk food, for someone like Liu Xun, as long as it was edible, he would eat it.
"We booked it last night. The flight is at 9 o'clock today. We should go to the terminal after dinner." Hell was carrying a suitcase, and no one knew what was inside it.
"Let's eat while we walk. By the way, where did you get this suitcase? You didn't bring anything yesterday." Liu Xun looked at the suitcase in Hell's hand, asked casually, and walked towards the elevator.
"This is what I ordered, all of them are local specialties. I don't know when I'll be able to come back here after returning to England this time, so I might as well bring more." Hell dragged the suitcase and followed Liu Xun.
"By the way, I have to go to the bathroom first. I haven't cleared out the toxins since I got up this morning." Liu Xun placed the hamburger and milk in Hell's hand and walked towards the room.
"NO, Liu Xun, you have to change your words, because if you go to England, this sentence will offend people!" Hell shook his head and said helplessly.
Liu Xun was speechless for a moment. He also knew the customs of the United Kingdom. If he went to the United Kingdom, he would definitely follow the local customs. But he hadn't arrived yet, hadn't he? Turning around and looking at Hell, seeing Hell's serious look, Liu Xun could only say, "I know. I'll go to No. 100."
Number 100 is the toilet for the British, but for the sake of politeness, they will say go to the bathroom or number 100. Liu Xun was helpless about this. Since everyone knows that number 100 is the toilet, what is the difference between this and saying it directly? Are the British so hypocritical
"Okay, hurry up, I'll wait for you here." Hell smiled when he heard Liu Xun say that.
The two of them left the hotel and walked all the way to the international airport. Along the way, Hell kept chattering to Liu Xun about things they needed to pay attention to when they arrived in the UK.
For example, 'When you first meet someone, you usually shake hands. Except for couples in love, people don't usually hold hands when walking! The British don't like others to interfere with their personal lives.';
When you visit a British person, you must knock on the door first and wait until he says "come in" before you can go in. Gentlemen take off their hats when entering the house, but ladies do not have to take off their hats indoors. The topic that British people often talk about in their daily lives is the weather, which is often the first topic.
Ladies first and gentlemanly manners. In the UK, respecting women is an important aspect of gentlemanly manners, and ladies first is a well-known code of conduct.
If you want to go to the toilet, you can say "go to the men's room" or "go to the women's room", or "excuse me for a few minutes" or "I want to wash my hands", etc. Children say "I want to go to that place" when they want to urinate or defecate. Among friends and within the family, "go to number 100" is the most common expression.
In the UK, you are limited to tipping waiters and taxi drivers, paying 1/10 or 1/8 of the meal and fare. You should also pay a small tip to the waiter in the hotel or the railway porter after serving you.
You can't cut in line. British people have the habit of queuing. You can see them queuing up one by one to get on the bus, train or buy newspapers. Cutting in line is a despicable behavior.
You can't ask a lady's age. The British don't like to talk about a man's salary or a woman's age! Also, you can't bargain. When shopping in the UK, bargaining is the most taboo.
Hell had been talking all the way, and was still talking now. Liu Xun's eyes twitched as he listened. Finally, he couldn't help it anymore, so he stopped and looked at Hell and said loudly: "I say, Hart, are you done yet? They say that you British people give people the impression of being reserved! You usually don't take the initiative to talk to others, you don't show your emotions, you rarely get excited, you speak in a soft voice, and you can control yourself! But why don't I find... you have any similarities?"
At this point, Hell was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Liu Xun, "Also, just keep talking. Why are you talking so much all the way? From the elevator until now, we are about to enter the airport, and you can still talk! Haven't we learned the culture and customs of various countries? How could I not know what to pay attention to when I go to your UK? These common sense are even known to people who travel. I think you are deliberately making small talk, right?"
"..." Hell was speechless for a moment, then he scratched his head awkwardly and said softly: "I'm just reminding you..."
"Uh... You British people are really troublesome." Liu Xun took a deep breath, as if he suddenly remembered something, frowned and asked: "You won't drag me to the party and the dance, right?"
Hell shrugged and said helplessly: "Liu Xun, what do you think? In fact, I am going back not only for the future battle, but also to attend a banquet that I must attend."
"Hart, you can go to England, but forget about the banquet! You should know that I am not a gentleman at all." Liu Xun's face turned bitter. He knew the rules of attending banquets in England. To put it bluntly, it was just asking for trouble.
"NO, Liu Xun, this banquet is different. You must attend because it is my engagement party." Hell said seriously.
"I see." Liu Xun was not surprised that Hell was engaged. After all, Hell was not young anymore and it was time for him to get engaged. But when Liu Xun thought of the British etiquette, he felt very constrained.
But there was no other way. This was Hell's engagement party. He had to attend even if he didn't want to! When he thought of the Hell family's direct and collateral branches, the direct branch was nothing, after all, it had nothing to do with the secular world, but this collateral branch... To put it bluntly, it was the British royal family.
Liu Xun attended the banquet, representing not only himself, but the entire China. Everything he said and did indirectly represented the position of China. Liu Xun never expected that his trip to England would become a diplomatic envoy of the country and an envoy of the alliance of the family...
The plane finally took off, and Liu Xun and Hell sat opposite each other. Hell's expression was not the excitement of returning home, but the same as when Liu Xun retired, with tears in his eyes. (To be continued)
