Chapter 433: Ruthless Rules of Justice

In a place that Mu Zhengguang had never been to, Cui Yunqing uncovered another past.

Cheng Minghao and Huang Xinyue's high school entrance exam scores were almost the same as before. Later, they both went to Pinglin No. 985 Middle School. No. Middle School is the second-ranked high school in the county, second only to Pinglin Senior High School, and every year there are several students who are admitted to universities.

Mu Zhengguang knew that these two people went to No. 1 Middle School. After entering high school, Cheng Minghao would still post group photos, and the background of one of the photos was the gate of No. 1 Middle School.

Throughout high school, Mu Zhengguang could see Cheng Minghao's words and life fragments in the circle of friends. From these few words and pictures, he could roughly infer that their lives were also very peaceful, like most people.

The past that Cui Yunqing uncovered seemed calm on the surface, and even if one looked carefully inside, it was difficult to find any major problems.

Mu Zhengguang watched for a long time and saw a lot of things.

It is normal for academic performance to fluctuate.

It's normal for two people to quarrel.

Is it normal to break up suddenly? I don't know. Let's wait and see.

Half a month after the breakup, they got back together. Is this unusual? Not sure.

During the three years of high school, they broke up twice and got back together twice, but they remained together until graduation.

The college entrance examination results were announced, and the difference between the two was four points. Is such a small difference enough for the two to go to different schools? It is possible. Teachers often say that sometimes a difference of one point means that you cannot go to the school you want to go to.

The minimum admission score for Energy and Power Engineering at Baisong University in 2022 is 600 points. Xiao Xu's score is 602 points. If it was three points less, the result would be very different.

Mu Zhengguang saw that they chose the same school, the same major, the same first choice, the same second and third choice, and the same city for the first three choices.

Those who are already together will never be willing to go to different schools because of a few points difference. For example, Xiao Xu and I, who have a 15-point difference, are also unwilling to give up the opportunity to go to the same school. Even if the probability of success is slim, we will try our best.

When the admission results came out, both of them were admitted as their second choice.

They met in middle school, entered the same high school, and then the same university. Their growth trajectory is very similar to mine and Xiao Xu's. How far will their relationship develop during college? Will they break up again and get back together again?

They finally got through high school and were admitted to the same university. They left their small county and went to the big city, a place of relative freedom. They only needed to wait a few more years until they reached the age to get a marriage certificate and officially become husband and wife. Then, no matter if the past was right or wrong, or whether it was sooner or later, they would have a relatively stable result.

"You've been admitted to a second-tier university. You have to work hard and find a guy who's been admitted to a first-tier university. I have a cousin who was also admitted to a second-tier university. Her school is not as good as ours, and her boyfriend graduated from a 985 university."

"It doesn't matter if you slept with him. As long as you don't tell others, they won't know. It's okay even if they know. We are all adults. What's wrong with sleeping with him?"

Mu Zhengguang watched all this calmly, watching Huang Xinyue listen to her roommate's instigation, and after a night of careful consideration, she finally decided to break up with Cheng Minghao. This breakup lasted for half a year, and then they got back together.

At this point, Mu Zhengguang no longer had any hope for their marriage: this reunion was different from previous reunions. In the past, no matter who broke up, it was the boy who first proposed to reunite, but this time it was the girl who first proposed to reunite. Marriage is not a second choice, and the reunion of two people does not mean a reunion, it is more like a last glimmer of hope before the relationship ends.

The relationship ended in the second semester of their sophomore year, and they had no contact for a whole year.

People's efforts have gone to waste.

There is no way to make up for what you did wrong.

Witnessing such a result, Mu Zhengguang remained calm. There was no curse, no hatred, no anger, and his original intention had not changed at all. He still did not want to see them face the consequences in this life.

This shouldn't be the case. Why didn't he react at all? Didn't he hate these words and these things? In a world full of sin, the power of regret can be fully exerted. Cui Yunqing could see all of Mu Zhengguang's thoughts, but no matter how clearly she saw it, she still couldn't figure out why he behaved like this.

Even if he could ignore what those people said, he couldn't turn a blind eye to what had happened. Before the results came out, he could keep hope again and again, but the results had already been formed, so was there any reason for him to keep hope?

In the past twenty years, Cheng Minghao and Huang Xinyue have been together for seven years. The past accumulated over a long period of time will not become lighter because of the immaturity of this relationship, but may become heavier after they mature. These real and heavy past events are just lost, doesn't he feel a little bit of regret?
The two people who once made a wish to be together for life, the two people who once spent a lot of time filling out their applications, finally came to the place they had longed to meet, but they parted at the place where they met. Mu Zhengguang could see such regret, but was he not touched at all?
How could a person who had done something wrong and was entangled in sin still receive his sympathy and mercy? Was this his weakness? I don't know, but I'll just write it down for now.

My sudden idea was wrong again. The story of those two people could not stir his heart. Going back to junior high school and digging up some more evil around him, could it make him hesitate and doubt?
When he was in the third grade of junior high school, Mu Zhengguang's homeroom teacher received many red envelopes from students' parents.

"Teacher, he is in school. I hope you can pay more attention to him."

"His grades have always been good, so I don't need to pay attention to him."

"No, no, his father and I are not with him. If anything happens, I'll have to trouble you."

"It's okay. I don't worry about this kid, and you can too. He just got a little close to girls from other classes recently."

"Look, if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known. But as long as his grades don't drop, there's no need to confront him about this. You know that boys' parents and girls' parents think differently."

"I know, I know. I can all understand. I can all understand."

Bribery? Bribery? Surveillance? Does this happen often on campus? I thought that as long as my grades were good enough, my parents wouldn't have to contact the teacher. I also thought that few people knew about my relationship with Xiao Xu because we were not in a confirmed relationship.

Cui Yunqing intercepted one past event after another, and Mu Zhengguang saw various scenes of bribery, bribery, surveillance, and being surveillance.

On campus, which teacher secretly accepted red envelopes, and which teacher secretly stood by the window to watch the students playing and fighting... During class, the teacher saw who spoke and who didn't, but they would criticize those who didn't speak and turn a blind eye to those who spoke. It turned out that it was not because they saw it wrong, but because they wanted to do so! There are deep sins lurking around me! I am very close to these sins, no, not only that, I have also been the embodiment of sin! This was the case before I entered the first grade of junior high school, and it was also the case before I entered the third grade of junior high school, and it was still the case before I entered the third grade of high school.

Maybe I didn't become the embodiment of sin yesterday, but what about the day before yesterday? And before that? It hasn't been a long time since I last became the embodiment of sin.

I ignored some small mistakes, and so did Xiao Xu. Maybe these small mistakes were harmless, but when I was troubled and regretful, they were all ironclad evidence that sin had happened.

When negative emotions appear and cause me to lose control, when I cannot help but make wrong choices, I, like everyone else, am dominated by sin and become the embodiment of sin!

Cui Yunqing covered his eyes with his right hand, not wanting to look any further. Mu Zhengguang had such insights and cognition, and it would be too much to test him with something that was obviously against human nature, unless he and the people around him suffered because of the sins of others. Even so, he would not necessarily sink into sin and become involved in it.

His mercy and sympathy are certainly not shortcomings, but in certain special circumstances, they can appear as shortcomings and lead him into the abyss of sin.

Some people are born with dementia and look very abnormal at first glance. They cannot live like normal people and cannot even fake a normal person's expression.

Some people are born blind and never know the colorful world. Some people become blind later in life and see the colorful world, but have to say goodbye to it and never see a ray of light again.

Some people are strong but are often bullied. The bullies seem much weaker than them, but no matter how they resist, they cannot win.

Some people are kind and generous throughout their lives, but suddenly encounter misfortune in their later years, or suffer a serious illness, or lose a child, or their family fortunes plummet...

Some people hate their partners, but they just can't leave. Whenever they make up their minds to divorce, something special always happens to change their minds or hinder their plans. Some people love each other, but their relationship suffers setbacks and eventually misses each other forever.

Some people spend their entire lives giving, while others spend their entire lives gaining.

Some people are born into a wealthy family. From childhood to youth, adulthood and middle age, they are praised and envied by many people, even though everything they do is sinful.

Some people do many evil things in their lives, but their lives are smooth. They have successful careers, happy families, and both sons and daughters. When they are old, the family gathers together to enjoy the family happiness. The harmonious picture makes people frightened and secretly doubt whether the so-called retribution exists.

Some people climb higher and higher by stepping on the personalities, dignity and even lives of thousands of people, and are eventually recorded in the annals of history, leaving their names in the annals of history and becoming idols and role models for countless people.

Some people did nothing but got high positions, high salaries, and wealth. Some people did everything but ended up with nothing, or only got what they wanted after they died.

Some people actively exercise, have regular physical examinations, control their diet, and maintain healthy living habits, but they die young for various reasons, or even die in a hospital bed. Some people have bad habits and squander their bodies, but they rarely get sick and live a long life.

Fate is so changeable and powerful that it can bring people earth-shattering disasters or joyful luck at any unexpected moment.

Those who are healthy and well die suddenly, while those who are barely alive live to be a hundred years old.

Those who are kind and generous face disasters, while those who do evil are happy.

Those who work hard gain nothing, while those who are lazy and idle gain a lot.

People always fail to accomplish what they want to do.

Things that people don't want often happen.

Is all this reasonable?

Mu Zhengguang’s answer is “yes”.

It's normal for someone to be bullied their whole life.

Some people are born rich, some are born poor, and this is normal.

Some people are born rich and become poor later, while others are born poor and become rich later. This is also normal.

All these things are normal and reasonable. What is abnormal and unreasonable is the sin of people.

If a person suffers in this life, it is not because fate is unfair to him. If a person is rich in this life, it is not because fate favors him. What people think is good and bad is not really good and bad, but what people like and dislike, what people yearn for and what people fear.

Some people are born smart and have extraordinary abilities. They can do things that many people cannot do and get things that many people cannot get. However, such abilities do not come from them, but from destiny. Their gains do not come from their abilities, but also from destiny. There is nothing to boast about in their abilities, and there is nothing to envy in their gains.

Some people are born miserable, or disabled, or their parents are dead... Some people become miserable when they grow up, or their families are broken up and they live on the streets, or they live in poverty all their lives... People don't need to be afraid of such things happening to themselves, because fate will not change because of people's fear. Of course, fate will not change because people are not afraid, but it's better not to be afraid than to be afraid.

The tragedies and happiness in this life are not without reason. Maybe it is what happened in the previous life, or maybe it is what will happen in the next life, but no matter what happens, fate is fair to everyone.

Good and evil exist, and so does retribution. People expect too much to see those they hate suffer and those they like enjoy happiness in this life, and they expect too much to exchange their efforts in this life for happiness in this life, as if fate is unfair if this doesn't happen.

If the retribution for good and evil is all in this life, some people will definitely go to extremes, and more people will learn to disguise. In this environment, can humans still reproduce for thousands of years? Moreover, the things some people do have too great an impact, and the retribution for their good and evil cannot be calculated in one lifetime!

Life and death, reincarnation, fate, and cause and effect are all fair. They all lead people to a fair ending and also bring people's hearts to fairness. In front of this rule, no one and nothing is an exception.

As time and scenery passed, Mu Zhengguang heard laughter, heard crying, and his tears fell, but his conclusion remained unchanged: this kind of rule is justice.
