Chapter 171: One Aspect Of Human Nature
More than a week later, this weekend afternoon, Wang Jian did not open the game, because today was the day Wang Heng left home.
Wang Jian and his son came to the station together and stopped here.
“You go back, go back and rest well, tomorrow you have to go to work again.” Wang Heng pulled the strap of his backpack and turned around to say.
“Be careful on the road…”
“I’m already so old, what is there to worry about?” Wang Heng teased, “What, do you want me to stand here while you go buy an orange?”
“Do you want to eat an orange?”
“Forget it, too lazy to wash hands.”
But Wang Jian still seemed slightly hesitant, as if there was something hard to say. After hesitating for a while, he asked: “You’re familiar with taking the bus, boarding the airplane and such, I have nothing to worry about. But…”
“But what’s wrong?”
“You won’t hook up with girls on the road again, right?”
For his father’s concern, Wang Heng was simply amused: “How is that possible! Someone as self-disciplined and reclusive as me…”
“But you’ve already hooked up with two,” Wang Jian put his hand on his son’s shoulder and lowered his voice, “I wanted to ask you, what exactly are you thinking? Those two girls are both pretty, and they both seem to like you a lot, which one do you fancy?”
Wang Heng said helplessly: “Dad, can you stop being so gossipy?”
“Alright, alright, I won’t gossip. But son, you have to know that you’re already an eighteen- or nineteen-year-old young man, an adult. Dad can’t control many things, but one thing is, you can’t just seek your own pleasure, you have to take responsibility!”
Saying this, Wang Jian took out a beautifully packaged small box from his pocket and stuffed it into his son’s hand.
Wang Heng looked down and saw it was Durex ultra-thin…
“What are you thinking!”
Wang Heng had a face full of black lines, but his father still looked serious.
“I’m telling you, in male-female relationships, girls are the ones who suffer the most easily, you can’t just care about your own pleasure, understand? As a boy, if you don’t take on this responsibility, how can that be right?”
Looking at his father who had put on a stern face to solemnly lecture him, Wang Heng sighed and stuffed the box of Durex into his schoolbag.
Then, he said helplessly: “It’s not about taking responsibility or not, the key is, things haven’t developed to that step with them at all!”
Wang Jian was immediately heartbroken: “You say, what do you mean ‘them’? More than one, you really dare to think!”
Wang Heng: “…Can you stop imagining things?”

In the afternoon, he took the bus to the provincial capital, stayed one night at a small inn, and the next morning, Wang Heng arrived at the airport in the provincial capital and boarded the airplane to Rongdu.
Just like the procedures for the previous two airplane rides, he still put his backpack under the seat in front, and before takeoff, the little hamster obediently drilled into the bag.
Today was Monday, the stock market had already opened.
Two hours later, when the airplane landed, the first thing Wang Heng did was open his mobile phone to check the stock’s information.
As expected, that stock was still at limit up, the price of the held stocks had more than doubled. Although it was within expectation, seeing this progress still made one feel happy.
So until he walked out of the terminal building and got into a taxi, Wang Heng’s face still had a faint smile.
The driver uncle driving the taxi was obviously quite talkative, and after stepping on the accelerator, he started chatting sporadically, his mouth hardly idle. And Wang Heng didn’t say much, just occasionally agreeing…
When the taxi passed a large advertisement board, Wang Heng’s gaze was briefly attracted by the content on it. It was an advertisement from a signal operations giant—【4G, making life faster.】
The driver suddenly said: “All that flowery talk, what’s the use?”
Wang Heng: “You mean 4G?”
Driver: “Of course, aren’t mobile phones good enough now? Making phone calls, sending texts, surfing the internet, isn’t that enough? Let me tell you, that 4G set meal is going to be a lot more expensive, and the internet speed isn’t necessarily much faster, it’s definitely a money-making trick by the operators…”
Wang Heng did not interrupt the driver uncle’s rambling, just smiled without speaking.
One of the essences of humanity is what? True fragrance.
When 4G is fully rolled out, from mobile games to short videos to live streaming platforms, there will always be one that suits this driver uncle.

After getting out of the taxi and walking into the campus, Wang Heng suddenly received a text message from Ye Xun.
【Senior, have you returned to Rongdu? I accumulated many questions while doing problems during winter holiday, and want to ask you for guidance.】
Wang Heng thought for a moment and replied: 【Just arrived, you can come find me when you have time.】
Then he entered the dormitory building, went up the stairs, and finally arrived at his dormitory. He took out the key to open the door, and then saw Fu Hanwen sitting at the desk studying hard. Besides him, there was no one else in the dormitory.
“Yo, finally started studying hard?” Wang Heng teased.
Fu Hanwen turned his head to look, slightly surprised: “You don’t need to retake exam, why are you back at school so early?”
Wang Heng: “I need to use the school’s database and library.”
Fu Hanwen: “What for?”
Wang Heng explained: “To look up some materials, about artificial intelligence and big data. The theses I downloaded before were too advanced, need to start from simpler and more basic ones.”
Although the hamster always mocked sarcastically, he did not give up easily. After all, with a vision leading others by several years, if he only used it for investment while being conventional in studies, it would be too wasteful.
But this kind of thinking, in Fu Hanwen’s view, was too much.
“Retake exam is in another week, but linear algebra is really hard…” Fu Hanwen held his head and groaned, “Teacher Wang, can you tutor me again?”
“Sure, but wait a moment.”
Wang Heng walked to his own desk, put down his schoolbag, took out the hamster from inside, and put it in the cage. Then he turned around, walked to Fu Hanwen’s side, preparing to give some guidance.
But at that moment, his schoolbag fell off the chair—obviously, it hadn’t been placed steadily earlier.
A delicate small box fell out from the schoolbag.
Fu Hanwen’s gaze immediately froze: “Durex!”
Wang Heng hurriedly stuffed the small box into the deepest part of his own drawer, but when he turned around, he could still see Fu Hanwen’s meaningful gaze.
Fu Hanwen: “I didn’t see wrong, it’s definitely…”
Wang Heng: “No, you saw wrong!”
Fu Hanwen: “Then don’t hide it, take it out and let me see?”
Wang Heng: “Little Fu, peeking at others’ things is not a good habit.”
Fu Hanwen: “Can’t blame me, it fell out by itself…”
Just as the two boys were arguing endlessly, there was a knock on the dormitory door.
Fu Hanwen stood up and opened the door, and saw a pretty girl with a slightly shy expression.
The visitor was Ye Xun.
Fu Hanwen sized up the graceful young girl, then turned his head to look at Wang Heng’s drawer, and let out an “oh” of sudden realization.
Wang Heng: “You still want me to tutor you or not!”
