Chapter 865: Two Worlds

Los Angeles, Thalia Academy for Women.

This is a professional women's college hosted by the church, and has made great achievements in women's etiquette, social interaction, music and religious arts.

This is also where Ariel goes to school, and Xu Man chose it for her.

According to her, this girl became wild with her, a little lawless, and tainted with hostility.

So send her to a mission school and let her be disciplined.

That being said, Li Zitao specially donated a sum of US$50,000 to charity.

I also asked people to investigate this school. Although the management is strict, there are many requirements.

However, corporal punishment rarely occurs, and there is no criminal record such as disability or mental violence.

Missionary schools in this day and age, especially boarding schools, are not friendly.

Huaguo's future "disciplinary school" set has now been perfected by Laomei.

But with his charitable donations and greetings, Ariel had a pretty good life at school.

But it didn't look like that to her.

Get up on time every day, fold the quilt, get dressed, and wash without making noise.

There is also morning class, Bible reading, and prayer.

Then there are various courses, and if you don't do it right, you will be punished.

Standing as punishment, copying the Bible, facing the wall, and even no dinner.

Little Ariel misses life in Vegas terribly, and everyone is so nice to her.

No matter what you want to eat, someone will bring it to her.

Now... everything is ruined.

"Father?" When she was called to the door by the nun and saw Li Zitao, her tone was full of astonishment.

It's been a long time since her father came to see her, so long that Ariel burst into tears when she saw him for the first time.

Holding his aggrieved daughter, Li Zitao comforted her distressedly, thinking, 'Did you treat her too harshly? '

For the children's education, Li Zitao does not intervene most of the time.

Because he thinks that several women are doing very well, and teaching students in accordance with their aptitude is the best way.

However, seeing Ariel's grievance still made him very uncomfortable.

"Let's go eat, what do you want to eat?" The topic of eating is always unavoidable when meeting Chinese.

Besides, he also thought in his heart that his daughter would not be able to eat well here.

"Hamburger, I want to eat McDonald's, McDonald's, McDonald's..." Ariel turned on the repeater mode.

Holding their daughter in their arms along the way, the father and daughter talked about her life at school.

The more she talked about Ai Lier, the more wronged she became, Li Zitao felt distressed and at the same time felt relieved.

Overall, she just couldn't accept the school's rules and discipline.

He was not abused in terms of food and housing.

And this meeting, from her standing, sitting posture, demeanor, and speaking, it can be seen that there has been a big change from before.

"You can't be soft-hearted, bears are scary." Li Zitao said silently to himself.

In his understanding, there are two types of education for children.

One is to appreciate you now and hate you in the future.

One is to hate you now and thank you in the future.

He is willing to choose the second option, because the present is short and the future is long.

Also because in his opinion, bringing a life into this world means being responsible for her future.

"Ariel, what kind of person you want to become, what kind of price you have to pay... Come with me."

Li Zitao led her to the door and walked through several alleys.

In the cracks of tall buildings, there is a dilapidated and dirty poverty-stricken area.

Some children were rolling in puddles on the potholed road, wearing worn-out cloth. '

A man was leaning in front of the broken bricks and tiles drunkenly, not knowing the sun and the moon in a daze.

There are women who are mending clothes or cleaning sundries with dry and dry hands to earn money for living.

"What did you see?" Li Zitao squatted down and asked.

"The poor." Ariel scratched her head, a little bit unbearably said: "Why don't we help them, Dad."

"Because they chose to degenerate, look at him..." Li Zitao pointed at a drunk man.

"He was physically strong, but now the alcohol has corrupted his body and mind,

He has a sound body but is unwilling to work, preferring to hide here and live like a cockroach. "

After her daughter looked at the man and gradually lowered her head, Li Zitao took her away.

The two of them didn't speak all the way.

It reappeared in front of a high-end office building, which is the Los Angeles branch of the Blue and White Chamber of Commerce.

"boss."

"Hi boss."

Li Zitao has been in Los Angeles for a long time, and he personally interviewed many employees here, so he naturally knows him as a big boss.

However, everyone was very curious about the child he was holding in his hand, but no one approached him ignorantly to ask questions.

When he came to the public office area, Li Zitao didn't speak, but just sat beside him with Ariel.

"Observe them and see what they are doing." Li Zitao said to his daughter.

Seeing the big boss sitting next to him, looking at him like that without saying a word, the employees raised their spirits and their hearts fluttered.

But soon they forgot about it, there have been too many recent events.

The impact of the war has affected companies involved in international business.

The Blue and White Chamber of Commerce is the major shareholder or wholly-owned parent company of many companies, so one can imagine how busy it is.

Phones rang non-stop, and people walked at a trot pace.

To eat is to have a sandwich or a hamburger in your mouth, and the coffee in front of you changes cup after cup.

It wasn't until my throat was about to smoke and my shirt was wet with sweat that the busy day finally came to an end.

In fact, before the war, they would not have been so busy.

But this is exactly what Li Zitao wanted Ariel to see, and it was also the reason why he brought her here.

At the end of the day's itinerary, Li Zitao was very satisfied, but Ariel seemed a little silent and entangled.

In a short day, she saw two completely different worlds.

Her time in the ghetto was short, but it left a deep impression on her.

"They have no ability to change their own destiny. Everything you have is what they are willing to exchange for. Understand?"

Before parting, Li Zitao knelt down at the school gate, looked directly at his daughter, and said gently and earnestly.

Ariel still half-understands, but she nodded affirmatively.

She doesn't understand too many profound things, but she is very clear about what kind of life she wants.

Seeing Ariel turning her head three times a step, she walked into the school reluctantly until she disappeared on the stairs.

Li Zitao returned to the car and breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the day is easy, but he feels more tired than usual.

It may be that he is too hypocritical, thinks too much, and doesn't say much, but he has already pondered thousands or tens of thousands of words in his heart.

Tired!

"Fortunately, there are not so many family issues in schools now, otherwise I will definitely go crazy."

Enjoying Ava's massage, Li Zitao asked the driver to drive the car to the airport, and it was almost time to go home.
