My Boss, the White-haired Nun

Doors have many connotations in occultism, symbolizing boundaries, borders, and the opening and closing of connections.Even if the action of closing the door was unintentional, it may represent his subconscious desire to disconnect some connecting lines.

Like line of sight, and some deeper stuff.

He walked out the door with his head held high, like he was holding on to some last pride.But the moment the door closed, he couldn't help but collapsed on the door as if his back had been pulled away.

He tried his best to raise his head, put his left hand in his trouser pocket, but raised his right hand in front of his head, inserting it into the bangs in front of his forehead.That hand blocked his face, and it covered all his expressions.

He was holding his face so hard that the knuckles were white.And under the face that could not be covered by the hand, there were slightly trembling lips.

After a long time, perhaps because he felt that this appearance was too cowardly, he suddenly sneered.However, the open mouth was drooling, the face was flushed, the eyes under the fingers were slightly red and swollen, and there was a faint cry in the laughter.

"No...how could I..."

He suddenly felt that he couldn't stay here any longer, otherwise if Gong Ming opened the door and walked out at this moment, he would laugh at him.

He told himself this, and then strenuously supported his body from the door, and took a step forward, but his figure swayed violently, like a toddler.But he quickly adjusted his state, striding like walking outside, and even started running at the end.

He didn't know where he was going, but subconsciously he didn't want Gong Ming to see his current appearance, so he had to stay away, as far away as possible.

He ran with his head down, letting his legs lead him in a certain direction, and finally stopped suddenly in front of a door.

He pushed open the door almost impatiently.The door was unlocked, he knew, because he had closed it himself that morning.

What appeared in front of him was the familiar workshop, the chair Gong Ming pulled out to sit in in the morning, and the wood chips left by the carving and the drawings that were finally dropped on the ground.

With a "wow", Otto sat on the ground and cried.

……

I don't know how long it took, but when Otto stopped crying tired, it was already dusk.

The orange-red light of the setting sun shines in from outside the window, and when it shines on the ground, it pulls out the long and narrow shadows on the ground. There are no lights in the room as usual, so the places that are not illuminated by the setting sun have been shrouded in deep darkness. The shadow is about to escape into the darkness with the sunset.

Karen didn't know when she was already at the door.But he didn't disturb anything, just looked at him quietly, like the shadow of something reflected on the door.

When Otto realized this matter.The girl has been standing there for a long time.It's just that at the beginning, he wasn't in the mood to care when and how the girl appeared.After all, it is nothing more than what those who are "talented" do in a way that those who are not "talented" will never understand.But now that he was tired from crying, he had let out some of the pent-up emotions in his heart. He could not help but feel a little ashamed when he felt the girl's water-like eyes on him.

Seeing that he had stopped, the girl walked over from the door and handed over a clean white handkerchief with the Kaslana family's unique coat of arms emblazoned with gold thread on the edge of the handkerchief.

Embarrassed, Ao Tuo took the handkerchief and wiped away the tears on his face, then used it to wake up his nose, and stuffed it into his arms.

He must not just return the things that woke up his nose to the girl in front of him.Even if it is to be returned, it must be something after cleaning.

"Have you seen it all?" Ao Tuo asked with red and swollen eyes, and there was a hint of choking in his tone.

"Yeah," the girl nodded lightly, "I've seen it all."

"That guy called you over?" Otto asked again.

"Mr. Nicholas called me over." The girl nodded first this time, then shook her head again, "I wanted to come too."

"Did he ask you to come and watch my jokes?" Ao Tuo sat on the floor with his legs folded, lowered his head and buried Lian in his arms, his voice was full of depression.

"The teacher asked me to come here to comfort you, 'Although I still think that things like children's things will pass after a night's sleep, but since it can make him happy, why not help', these are the teacher's original words."

"It's really what that bastard would say..." Otto muttered. "And that's how you comforted me?"

"The teacher said, I'm actually not very good at comforting people," the girl said seriously, "'Sometimes support in action is more powerful than words of comfort', so I think it's better to persuade you than to persuade you. Just being by your side might make it easier for you."

"..." Ao Tuo was speechless, and then said angrily: "What, such a shameless way."

This time the girl didn't answer, and the air fell into silence.

Ao Tuo was silent for a while, crossed his legs and looked at the table in front of him and the sawdust all over the floor.

"...Am I very useless?"

"..." The girl didn't speak, but tilted her head to indicate that she was listening.

Ao Tuo didn't look at her, but just looked forward blankly, as if he was looking at something very far away, or he didn't look at her at all, but opened his eyes subconsciously.

He continued: "Actually, I have always known that Gong Ming... that is, your teacher Nicholas has a very high status in Tianming." He paused for a while.

"My father is the incumbent Archbishop of Destiny, but his attitude towards Gong Ming is obviously very peaceful or even equal, just like his attitude towards your father, who is one of the three major families of Destiny."

"I was very happy at first. I was very happy about the fact that Gong Ming could not use the Houkai energy. Because he has a high status and is very respected in Tianming. What I thought was, it turns out that Relying on knowledge can also do such a thing, it turns out that relying on knowledge can also get such attention, it turns out that relying on the wisdom in the brain can also get such respect.”

"I think this is very good, this is great. Then I have a goal, and then I have a direction to work hard. Then as long as I keep working hard and learning, I can finally achieve this respect, importance and status, right?"

"The teacher is very powerful. It seems that there is always endless knowledge and wisdom in his head. In fact, I yearn for him very much. I always think that it would be great if he could be like him. No, if I It would be great to be one-tenth as good as him, so I study hard and study hard, just hoping that one day I can also set foot on the road of seeing him. I just hope that I can become as important as him."

"Actually, sometimes when no one is around, I would also think in my heart, I want to surpass him, I want to become even more powerful than him! Then I will get more attention and respect than him, and finally become a person with a higher status than him .”

He was obviously talking about such great hopes, but the hands holding his legs tightened even more.

"But today I found out that I was wrong." He smiled self-deprecatingly, "I found out that all of this is fake, and I found out that none of this is true. All the status, respect and The anticipation comes not at all from the wisdom I think, but the force I will never have! The kind of thing I will never have."

"He obviously knows everything, he clearly sees everything in his eyes, but he doesn't tell me anything. I'm like a fool, dreaming unrealistic dreams, and he just doesn't explain it this matter."

He lowered his head again and buried his face in the crook of his arms, and at the end, his voice became weeping again.

"He said every day that I was his student, but how could this be the attitude towards his own students..."

The girl sat with his help, blinked slightly, and didn't know how to comfort the person in front of her.She just patted his back lightly and accompanied him silently.

As Gong Ming said, she was not very good at comforting people.

But sometimes, just being with you is actually a good comfort.
