Chapter 2548
My Substitute CEO Bride
People liked to create gods, and they also had a tendency to want to overthrow gods.
Whistler, who was once admired by all, was completely pushed off the pedestal just because of this mistake. From then on, he was yelled at and beaten by others whenever he walked on the streets. Just like that, he lost patience with the world and spent a long time in a muddle.
That was when he met Casimir again.
"You're here again?"
"How many people have you saved this year?"
"Not even one."
"What's wrong?"
"I'm lost and confused. Do you think it is possible for people to live without caring about other people's opinions?"
"No."
"Even you don't think it's possible? Haha."
"But you may not understand what I mean right now."
"What do you mean?"
"If you take into account other people's opinions, then what?"
"What does that mean?"
"It's simple, what they think of me is their business, period."
"Can people really be that transparent?"
"No one can be truly transparent, but at least our hearts can be polished." "Polished?"
"That's right. Perseverance can smoothen metal and stone. How about it? Do you understand?"
"That's easy for you to say..."
"You're good enough now, but you still need continuous polishing. So, what now? Are you just going to continue like this or try to be transparent?"
After that, Whistler followed Casimir up the mountain. On the mountain, he met all kinds of people, just like the people he met at the foot of the mountain.
These people had their personal feelings about the matter, and many of them were doubtful about Whistler.
However, Whistler proved himself with his strength. After taking on the challenges that day, Whistler was called to Casimir's room.
"Whistler, tell me how you feel now."
Whistler thought about it seriously, and after a long time, he replied, "How should I put it? At the beginning, I was very happy to defeat those who doubted my ability.
It was as if I could be recognized in this way, but in the end, that sense of
recognition was gone, and I just felt like a violent machine..."
"I see. Whistler, you just came here. Take a walk around to familiarize yourself."
"Yes."
Whistler did not understand Casimir's purpose for doing this, but it seemed like he could let go a little and live a more relaxed life here.
The next day, he walked around the inner and outer courtyards according to Casimir's wishes.
It was at this time that he met Linden.
Whistler could tell at a glance that Linden did not have any talent for cultivation. He walked up to Linden.
Linden was still sweeping the floor with his head down. He raised his head when he felt someone approaching him.
Then, he said with a smile, "It's you, Senior Whistler."
"Senior?" Whistler was a little confused.
Linden nodded and asked with slight confusion, "Aren't you already a disciple of Father Hay?"
"Yes, but..."
