Remus felt beads of cold sweat forming on his forehead at the sight. He was about to apologize when Terence gently patted him on the head and said, “I’m leaving. If you haven’t had dinner yet, you can have this table. Young people should eat more!”
What?!
Remus and the others couldn’t believe what they were hearing.
Did this respected elder really mean what he said?
Was he not angry at all about how they had offended him?
Terence patted each of the young men on the head before casually walking out of the food stall with a friendly smile on his face.
Everyone could only stare in complete astonishment as they watched him leave.
Is this how someone of high status behaves?
If it was, then it was true that they couldn’t even begin to compare to someone like Terence! They couldn’t understand his thoughts at all!
“Sir!”
Just as Terence was about to get into his car, Marilyn dashed after him.
“Oh, what’s the matter?” Terence turned around, still smiling.
“Sir, c-can I hitch a ride in your car?”
Marilyn had always been bold, which was completely different from her sister, Red.
“Oh? Why do you want to ride in my car?” Terence asked, still smiling.
“I don’t know. I just want to! I want to go with you!”
Her youthful face emitted a certain seriousness that one couldn’t help but take a second look at. Even though she had applied heavy makeup, it only made it easier for one to notice the desperation in her bright eyes.
Terence couldn’t help but inwardly sigh. Ah, youth!
“Well, I don’t see why not.” He nodded in agreement before getting into his car.

She rushed over without hesitation!
“Hey, Marilyn!”
No matter how long or loudly Remus called her name, his girlfriend showed no signs of hesitation as she joined Terence.
Remus and the others could only watch as she left with Terence.
Plus, he had already noticed that the desperation in Marilyn’s eyes was simply a single-minded focus on living a better life.
Perhaps she also knew that the only valuable thing about her was her youth, as she had nothing else. Thus, from another perspective, she was more self-aware than her peers.
“Take care of yourself. Once you achieve something, you will realize that there’s more to you than just your youth!”
Terence’s advice managed to touch a certain part of Marilyn’s soul.
This was precisely why she decided to join him in the car without hesitation!
She had a feeling that this elder was different from everyone else the moment she saw him. It was as if he were a divine being above mortals!
She could tell that if she were to follow him, the chances of her gaining something precious would significantly increase.
“If
you
want to go out and see the world, I will take you with me. You will discover that the world is vast and wonderful. There is more to relationships than just love. You will gain many insights about your life. Once you do, you’ll see that life is more than just survival.”
In Marilyn’s opinion, each word Terence spoke seemed profound.
However, she was different from other girls. Even though she couldn’t fully understand the wisdom he was trying to convey, she still loved listening to his teachings!
At this moment, she couldn’t help but feel that Terence was a person from another world, sent to save her from a world of ignorance!
