Chapter 3267 Just an Apple

He made himself look ridiculous.

The boy was stunned.

Angry, embarrassed, awkward, puzzled...

Various emotions are intertwined to create more complex and difficult to distinguish emotions.

He wanted to escape.

He doesn't want to be here anymore.

He raised his foot and kicked back...

Thinking back on everything that happened afterwards, the boy still feels as if it were covered by a veil, a little unreal.

It was clear that not long ago he was running in the wind, full of energy and vigor.

But behind him he was like a grasshopper in a cage.

No matter how hard I try, I can't break free from that bondage.

……

He was particularly depressed and suffocated.

He didn't want to bother with anyone.

However, the other party's "threat" forced him to respond to their words.

For all children, parents...I'm afraid it is an immediate and effective way to restrain them.

The thought of my parents knowing what I did...

The boy couldn't help but tremble all over.

No matter how tough and confident you were before...

Although he is a child.

But he is not a child of four or five years old anymore.

He knows...

His previous behavior... was wrong.

He just didn't want to admit it.

This behavior was caused by his hot-headedness.

The whistling sound of the wind dispelled his worries.

Besides...

I have already run away...

Open the bow without turning back the arrow.

He could only keep running.

he thought...

"…It's just an apple…"

It's just a few bucks.

Why do you keep chasing after him?
What a stingy adult.

The boy complained in his heart.

……

The man listened to the boy's initial narration and then turned to complaining about him...

The corners of his mouth twitched violently.

have to.

Is this his fault?

He is stingy.

He shouldn't have chased after an apple...

……

"kid."

Gu Youxuan put on a face.

"You can't say that."

"No matter how small the item is, it's not a reason for you to take it without permission."

She had actually heard a lot of similar reasons.

I just pushed her a little bit, who would have thought...

I'm just kidding……

I just said a few words to him...

……

But these actions or words, which seem insignificant to many people, cause exponentially greater harm to others.

You are not a fish.

A person should never think that he can say it’s okay on behalf of others.

……

"It's just an apple..."

the boy muttered.

I still feel a little unwilling and disapproving.

He didn't really listen to what Gu Youxuan said.

He knew what the other person said was right.

but……

This is an apple.

……

"Ah."

Gu Youxuan smiled.

“It’s just an apple.”

"I've seen people murdered over a dispute over a dollar."

……

The boy's face froze.

……

The man glanced at the girl.

Tsk tsk.

This is an understatement...

Just dropped a bomb.

Aren’t you worried that the child can’t bear it?

but……

He supports the girls' approach.

This kid won't realize his mistakes unless he gets some shocking information.

No.

The child knew that his behavior was wrong.

But I think it's just a small mistake.

It shouldn't make a fuss.

It doesn't matter if such a small mistake is made.

It doesn't deserve to be specifically brought up... to be blamed.

……

The boy looked at the girl somewhat dully.

What did she...just say?
……

The curve of Gu Youxuan's mouth didn't change.

"Don't believe it?"

"Don't think that just because it's an apple, people won't care about you."

"Oh."

"I don't mean the people here."

The girl's explanation made the man slightly stunned.

Then he smiled bitterly.

Should he thank her for explaining it so early?

……

"One dollar, no, fifty cents, or even a piece of paper..."

The curve of Gu Youxuan's mouth flattened. She looked at the boy seriously.

"As long as your behavior is wrong..."

"No matter how small the cause is..."

"It could lead to terrible consequences."

Sometimes, even if the behavior is correct, it can lead to terrible consequences.

It is not uncommon for good intentions to lead to bad results.

of course.

There is no need to tell these to boys.

After all, it has nothing to do with what happened today.

"Understand?"

……

The boy looked stunned.

The mouth is slightly open.

……

"You don't want to get into a conflict with someone just because of a dollar or a piece of paper, do you?"

Gu Youxuan moved her shoulders slightly.

This stretches the muscles and bones of the body.

It's really tiring to talk with your back bent and legs half bent.

"Isn't that unfair?"

“Isn’t it a big loss?”

……

The boy couldn't help but nodded.

That is indeed unfair and a loss.

……

"right?"

A faint smile appeared on Gu Youxuan's face.

“So don’t do things that shouldn’t be done.”

“Don’t take chances.”

"Otherwise, you will most likely regret it."

……

The boy hesitated and nodded silently.

……

"Then apologize to your uncle now."

The corners of Gu Youxuan's mouth curled up slightly.

"I hope my uncle will forgive me."

"If uncle says it's okay, then this matter will just pass, okay?"

Gu Youxuan tilted her head and glanced at the man.

……

The man felt a little sad when he heard the word uncle.

Is he an uncle already?

In fact, he prefers boys to call him big brother.

He thinks he looks quite young.

of course.

He was quite young.

……

Noticing the girl's gaze, the man was a little confused at first.

The next second, he reacted.

He nodded at the girl.

This was his original intention.

As long as the child apologizes to him, the matter will be over.

If the child hadn't been doing irritating things all the time, he wouldn't have taken him so seriously.

……

"Ok?"

The girl spoke up to remind the boy that she had been thinking about it for a long time.

……

The boy opened his eyes wide as if frightened.

……

Gu Youxuan reached out and touched the child's head.

"Feel sorry."

"scared you."

"Don't worry."

Gu Youxuan comforted the child.

"Think about it."

"It's just an apology."

“But don’t be perfunctory.”

"Be serious."

"You have to really know where you went wrong."

……

The boy subconsciously shook his head and shook off Gu Youxuan's hand.

He doesn't like being touched on the head.

You will become stupid.

……

He is so smart...

He doesn't want to be stupid.

But today, he did something really stupid.

……

The boy looks at the girl.

Gu Youxuan nodded at the boy.

She looked at the man.

……

The boy followed the girl's gaze and looked at the man.

……

The man looked at the boy quietly.

Finally, the incident came to an end.

He waited for the boy's apology.

……

"right……"

The boy touched his neck.

The hoarseness of the first word startled him a little.

He cleared his throat.

"……sorry."

The boy said in a hurry.

The voice is not so hoarse anymore.

But it is very vague.

……

The man is hesitating...

Should he accept... such an apology that didn't sound so reluctant?
