Chapter 159: Dreams and Sadness

Under the gaze of everyone, I closed my eyes and brewed my emotions for a moment, and finally said: "...Dream... is a bad word, but my speech still starts with dreams... I don't know how you understand dreams, but in my opinion, dreams are a magical energy that can catalyze a person's growth and make people fearless in the sufferings of life... I used to be a person without dreams, playing games during work hours and going to bars during get off work hours... Don't doubt that this is indeed the person I used to be!"

After a moment of pause, I said again: "There is no dream, sorrow comes. I lost my job and then set up a street stall. At that time, I was really sad and felt that I was useless... I just felt the cruelty of reality in the torture, so I was even more sad... But I was lucky that I had some insights in the sorrow. I found that all the sorrows were just fantasized by myself and displayed to others, and I was very sad... But there was no one in this world that could understand your sorrows, so I gradually felt that all the sorrows were futile and empty... So I turned the fantasized sorrows into dreams!"

"I don't want to emphasize how tragic I am in the process of realizing my dreams, because the greater the dream, the greater the price I have to pay. This is something no one can avoid. I just want to emphasize the importance of dreams to a person... I hope that after experiencing the baptism of reality, you will still remember your dreams, forget the unrealistic and cowardly sadness, learn to examine yourself, spur yourself, learn to be silent, and accumulate strength in silence... No matter how advanced the sadness is, it will not be more powerful than dreams!"

The first warm applause sounded from the audience. I paused the speech and nodded to the audience. I just came out of their age, so I understand the theme of youth better than the pedantics, because my youth is full of dreams and sorrows. It was not until youth was about to end that I figured out the essence of both. I hope my understanding can allow them to abandon the sadness of adolescence and look at broader dreams.

.........

"After talking about so many dreams, I think we should let everyone understand my dreams...My dream is to help more people with dreams realize their dreams...so I set up the studio of Caimeng Factory and are actively attracting young people with dreams to join..."

After a moment of pause, I said again: "Here I guarantee to all the school leaders here that in the next year, our dream studio and various brands under my jurisdiction will hold large-scale job fairs at Normal University to provide every student with dreams with a platform to display their own dreams and help you realize your dreams. As long as you join us as a collective, I will definitely give you the brightest and coolest future!!"

As soon as I finished speaking, thunderous applause rang out from the audience again. I saw the longing eyes in the eyes of these students. I thought I would definitely remember these longing eyes and help them realize their dreams.

After lasting for 20 minutes, my speech finally ended, but I still felt unsatisfied. I feel that standing on this podium today and giving others help, my life value will be realized, and I will use the rest of my life to realize my dreams and fulfill today's promises.

...........

When we left the school auditorium, it was almost dusk. The school leaders warmly invited me to the canteen where the school entertained guests for dinner. I couldn't refuse and went to the appointment with Han Feng, Guan Ying and others.

I drank a lot of wine during the meal, and it was not until the sky was completely dimming that I left the school with everyone in a swaying manner.

I didn't plan to go back to the city this night, so I went to Han Feng's dormitory and prepared to sleep all night.

After washing up, Han Feng lay on the bed smoking a cigarette. I carried a quilt and lay down on the bed next to him. I also lit a cigarette, and the two started chatting.

I asked Han Feng: "How are you doing with Miss Ye recently?"

"Don't mention it, I've been busy with work. Most of the time I'm in the town and she's in the city, so it's rare to meet her." Han Feng said helplessly.

"It's almost a showdown." I used the alcohol to encourage Han Feng.

"Why do I show up? No matter how I say it, I am also..." Han Feng didn't say it, but took a deep breath of cigarette.

"I'm going to criticize you with this mentality. As a brother, I'll say something to you with my heart. A woman like Ye Huayi deserves your lowered attitude. How can I say that she is also a scholarly family, right?" I smiled.

Han Feng put out the cigarette butt and said, "Zhang Yixi, you don't understand me too much. I'm just trying to find a way out for myself? I'll take the initiative and there's no problem. The key is that she has to respond to me!"

"Then tell me, do you like it?"

"Do you still need to ask this? If I don't like it, she holds it like this every day, and I'm still pestering her so shamelessly... Zhang Yixi, tell me, I haven't liked any woman for so many years. I finally like one, but she holds it like this. I'm so unlucky!"

I looked at Han Feng's depressed face and smiled, saying, "Don't you just like her holding you?"

"This is the truth... people are more or less likely to be humble when they are alive."

While chatting and laughing with Han Feng, my phone suddenly rang. I took it out and looked at it. It turned out to be Zuo Lan called.

I answered the phone in doubt: "Hey, Zuo Lan..."

Before I finished speaking, I heard Zuo Lan's crying voice: "Yixi, Pipi is gone...I feel so confused...What should I do? What should I do?" Zuo Lan was already incoherent and couldn't speak the last word, and she was choking.

My scalp was tingling: "What's going on, what's going on?"

Zuo Lan cried in silence......

Unable to communicate, I said to Zuo Lan: "I am in the town now. You are waiting for me at home. I will immediately rush back to the city. You should calm down first and make sure that we can tell me the whole story when we meet later!"

Finally, Zuo Lan said the word "Yeah" to me with difficulty.

.........

I put on my clothes as fast as possible, and I was extremely anxious and worried. Nowadays, groups that abduct children are common. If Pipi really has an accident, Zuo Lan's life will definitely collapse completely, which is something I extremely unwilling to see.

"What's wrong?" Han Feng also sat up from the bed and asked.

"Pippi is lost, I have to rush back to the city now."

Han Feng stood up and grabbed me who was wearing shoes: "You drank a lot of wine tonight... It's too risky to drive."

"I can't care about that much." I said, letting go of Han Feng and grab my hand, picked up the car key and walked out the door.
