Chapter 559: Would Her Hand Recover? (9)

Walking out of the villa, Qiao Lian felt touched by that last scene with Su Penghao’s reddened eyes.

This group of passionate youths reminded her of herself eight years ago.

At that time, she had been just like them, passionate and on fire. But ultimately, they had had to succumb to the harsh reality.

Now, her only hope was that their journey on this road towards their dreams and aspirations would be smooth and without bumps.

As she sat in the cab on the way to the airport, her cell phone rang.

It was an unfamiliar number.

Qiao Lian picked up the call. Ancestor White Bones’ voice came over the line, “Coach Qiao.”

Ancestor White Bones was normally a quiet person, who seemed to be perpetually under great pressure.

At this moment, there was a certain perplexity in her voice as she spoke.

Qiao Lian said immediately, “It’s me. What’s up?”

Ancestor White Bones gave a bitter laugh. Then she continued, “I… have something to tell you.”

Qiao Lian paused for a moment. “What is it?”

“My Mom has taken my cell phone and given it to my brother. From a very young age, she has always told me that whatever we had at home belonged to my brother. When I grew up, I was to work hard and earn money so that my brother could take a wife, buy a house. I had good results when I was in school and came in top of the class every year. My brother was mischievous and did not do well in school. But my mother made me stop school after I graduated from junior high school so that I could work and let my brother go to college. The staggering cost of tuition fees and life almost killed me. And it was during this time that I came across Lot games.”

“I love gaming and I’m passionate about that world. Coach Qiao, my mother says this is not a proper job, and all my neighbors give me strange looks.”

“Coach Qiao, I’m feeling lost and I’m not sure what to do. I don’t know where my future’s headed.”

As Ancestor White Bones spoke, Qiao Lian could her choking on her own words.

Since she was speaking in a low voice, she must have been making the call in secret, not wishing for anyone to hear her.

Qiao Lian’s heart ached for her.

Actually, life was hard.

What Ancestor White Bones was saying was probably be true of many others like her.

Qiao Lian looked at the bustling crowd outside.

She suddenly smiled and said, “White Bones.”

Ancestor White Bones gave a soft “hmmm” in response.

Qiao Lian continued, “In this world, some people are destined to be successful; some people are destined to lead a normal life. But does it mean that ordinary folks are unhappy?”

Ancestor White Bones paused.

“An ordinary life experiences ordinary joys, and pursuing your aspirations brings about its own happiness. This boils down to your own choices.”

“Oh,” Ancestor White Bones said softly.

Qiao Lian knew that she was trying to break out of her current situation.

She needed a breakthrough point.

But she actually still lacked courage.

Qiao Lian couldn’t help but to add, “The prerequisite for leading an ordinary life is to give up your dreams and aspirations. But what about me?”

Ancestor White Bones paused. She asked, “What?”

“Even if I wanted to chase my dreams and aspirations, I no longer have what it takes.”

Ancestor White Bones was stupefied by these words. “Coach Qiao, what do you mean?”

“My hand is injured and I can’t play games.”

Ancestor White Bones sounded shocked, “What?”

“White Bones, what I wish to say is that whatever you have, may very well be what others want.”

The voice on the other end of the line was silent for a moment. “Coach Qiao, I think I understand now.”

Qiao Lian kept silent for a brief moment and then said, “White Bones, CQ Team, Zombie Leader and the rest have been waiting for you to come home to them.”
