The Only Normal Human In The Universe

There are many times when people subconsciously ignore what is right or wrong and choose to take the side of the seemingly weaker party.

For example, when the wrongdoer drops his status, cries and begs for forgiveness. The original victim, on the other hand, is in a position to make a decision, which makes him slightly more powerful.

Many people can’t help but sympathize with the former perpetrator, believing that he is so pathetic that he should be forgiven.

And when the perpetrator uses a little tact, threatening to do something if he isn’t forgiven...

In that case, people’s attitudes become even clearer.

They will simply forget how the victim was treated and may even attempt to persuade the victim to forgive the perpetrator because he has said so much.

These threats of vulnerability, in turn, become a powerful means for the perpetrator to get forgiveness and shackles on the victim.

But with An Yan, the situation was reversed.

Or, rather, his actions just happened to turn the logic on its head because he had no intention of forcing Zhao Chengxuan to agree to his request, which was why he added the last half of his sentence.

With those words, the best effect was achieved.

Just like how threats disguised as apologies; “It’s okay if you don’t forgive me, but I’ll come over and apologize to you every day until you’re willing to forgive me."

“It’s okay even if I’m told to die as long as you forgive me."

"I know it’s all my fault, but I’m so miserable. Can’t you forgive me?"

“Please, I’ll kneel down for you, okay? I’ll kowtow to you! As long as you can forgive me, I’ll do anything you want me to do... "

………

These words, which sound humble and full of tears, are in fact a shackle that directly strangles the victim.

If you choose not to forgive, you are forcing him to come and apologize to you every day, forcing him to die, forcing him to kneel and kowtow to you.

The chains are placed on the victim, making it difficult for them to speak, and they are often forced to choose forgiveness in the end.

The only difference is that the so-called apologies of those perpetrators are merely a means for them to obtain forgiveness.

But An Yan’s words were giving Zhao Chengxuan a choice.

But this was not how it sounded to Zhao Chengxuan. Even if An Yan directly said it, he would not believe it.

He would only think that An Yan was deliberately embarrassing him so that he would not appear in front of him in the future.

After all, An Yan’s words were already out there. If he were to find an excuse to appear in the future, he would undoubtedly be admitting that he had not realized his mistakes at all, which would be tantamount to slapping himself in the face.

On the contrary, An Yan’s words were irrefutable. Even if Zhao Chengxuan was depressed at hearing them, he could only try to maintain a smile and say, "I’ll leave first then."

 Cheng Yang put his arm around An Yan’s shoulders after Zhao Chengxuan had gone and said with a smile, "I really didn’t expect you to be so good. You’ve rendered him speechless. hahaha.…"

An Yan was a little confused, "Huh?" Did I? How did I leave Zhao Chengxuan speechless?

Cheng Yang: "…" 

Well, he somehow knew what An Yan was thinking when he said those words.

This silly child is just too simple in his thoughts and too kind in nature.

However, An Yan would speak with a very serious attitude every time and make his enemies so angry that they wailed in their hearts but were still unable to retort. Maybe this was also a kind of alternative talent for scum abuse?

Cheng Yang’s mood suddenly improved: "Go go go, let’s hurry to the canteen to eat, I’m starving."

An Yan was immediately distracted at the mention of food, and his eyes lit up, "I hope we can have sweet and sour chicken fillets for lunch today."

Cheng Yang almost drooled as he said, "I prefer stir-fried meat; it’s so addictive."

The two were excitedly discussing what to eat for lunch while Zhao Chengxuan, on the other hand, had already sat down on his airship.

He didn’t rush to leave, but used his light brain to call Zhao Xinxin.

Zhao Chengxuan hadn’t intentionally avoided Zhao Xinxin before, but he didn’t expect not to see his daughter from start to finish as he waited at the classroom entrance.

He only felt that his time was limited and that he would not be able to talk with his daughter properly, so he did not take the initiative to contact her.

But he thought it necessary to find out why she hadn’t gone to class.

The call rang for a long time before it was answered. It was obvious that Zhao Xinxin was avoiding her father’s calls.

However, after the call was connected, Zhao Xinxin’s attitude was very careful: "Dad, shouldn’t you be at the office right now? How come you have time to contact me? "

Zhao Chengxuan scowled and snorted coldly, "Why aren’t you in class?"

 Zhao Xinxin was startled, but it would never cross her mind that her father was in the First Academy right now. So, she was still thinking of how to muddle through the question.

In fact, Zhao Xinxin had been missing classes from time to time ever since that day’s practical class.

For one thing, what happened that day was so humiliating that she felt ashamed to go out.

She didn’t want to be criticized by other people, and she didn’t want to feel their contempt.

In such a situation, Zhao Xinxin chose to run away.

The only way to isolate herself from these people was to shrink herself.

Zhao Xinxin just didn’t expect her father to know about this matter.

She rolled her eyes and lowered her voice, "Dad, I’m a bit unwell today. That’s why I didn’t go to class. I’ve already asked for leave from the professor. "

She had been in a bad mental state in the past few days, and her face looked so haggard that she seemed unwell.

However, this kind of rhetoric did not succeed in convincing Zhao Chengxuan. He gave another cold snort, with a clear displeasure in his voice: "I have already asked the professor of the class. He said that you did not ask him for leave, and you are still trying to lie to me! "

How did Father know that I hadn’t gone to class?

And how did he learn that I haven’t taken a leave of absence from the professor?

Zhao Xinxin finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

But even so, she still did not have the courage to come forward and tell the truth.

Zhao Xinxin had been surrounded and tormented by all sorts of negative emotions, which also included the fear that Zhao Chengxuan would learn about what had happened before.

Her father’s attitude towards her was already bad. If he found out about what she had done, he would definitely lose his temper, or even... even really deprive herself of the right to inherit the Zhao family. This thought made Zhao Xinxin angry, hateful, and scared, but there was nothing she could do about it.

 "Dad ……" Zhao Xinxin spoke hesitantly, racking her brain on how to solve the dilemma at hand.

 Zhao Chengxuan didn’t even give her a chance to continue her sophistry. He said in a stern voice, "I am at the First Academy right now. Come and see me right now! "

Zhao Xinxin was so frightened that her body shivered, finally recognizing the reality completely.

Ten minutes later, she sat in the back of Zhao Chengxuan’s airship, carefully bowing her head.

But Zhao Chengxuan didn’t give her the chance to play dead: "Should you take the initiative to explain, or should I help you?"

Although Zhao Xinxin was chagrined in her heart, she no longer dared to hide anything and stammered, "It …… happened a few days ago, during a practice class… I thought that An Yan had produced a discarded potion, but I didn’t expect..."

Zhao Chengxuan listened to Zhao Xinxin’s stumbling recount with a stern face. He waited until she finished to coldly scold her, "You thought? If your ideas were all right, you wouldn’t be in this situation now! Haven’t I warned you before? What did I say to you? And what did you do? You’ve let me down so much! "

Even though Zhao Xinxin’s heart was full of resentment, her whole body was still meek when facing Zhao Chengxuan: "Dad, I’m sorry, I didn’t know that things would turn out to be......"

"That’s enough! Up until now, you've only thought about how you should make excuses for yourself and shirk your responsibilities, but you've never thought about how exactly to solve the problem," Zhao Chengxuan roared coldly. "All these years I have spent teaching you were in vain! "

Zhao Xinxin didn’t dare to speak again. After a moment of silence, Zhao Chengxuan said, "You are coming home with me."

"But I have classes in the afternoon…," Zhao Xinxin said, cowering.

Zhao Chengxuan said in a deep voice, "I’m going to transfer you to another school."

"Transferring schools?!" Zhao Xinxin’s voice instantly became sharp as she looked at her father incredulously, "Why? Why do you want to transfer to another school?!"

Whether it was on the Central Star or any other major planets, the pharmacy major of the First Academy was definitely one of the best among all pharmacy majors.

In addition, transferring midway meant that she had already missed the entrance exams, so she would only be able to transfer to a lower rated academy, not a tiered or the average ones.

So why does Dad want me to transfer?

 Zhao Xinxin immediately found the answer on her own. It must be because of An Yan!

It must be because An Yan had created two high quality potions that her father had offered to transfer to another school! 

To think that her dad would arrange such a harmful thing for her just for An Yan’s sake! Zhao Xinxin’s awe and fear of Zhao Chengxuan turned into anger and sadness, and she said hysterically, "I don’t want to transfer to another school! I can’t change schools no matter what!"

Zhao Chengxuan frowned tightly and said in a rather cold voice, "Since you don’t want to transfer to another school, then just leave the Zhao family. I won’t ask about your affairs in the future. "

Zhao Xinxin, who was close to madness and had had a strong and determined attitude a moment before, wilted after hearing these words.

It was like a round balloon that had suddenly leaked air and deflated straight away.

She looked at her father incredulously. For a moment, she didn’t even know what expression to put on.

Zhao Xinxin wanted to tell herself that her father was just scaring her, that he couldn’t have really thought that.

But her heart knew beyond doubt that he was not joking or scaring her at all. He was serious.

He really wanted to drive her out of the Zhao family.

Zhao Xinxin was acutely aware of this.
