Chapter 269: Kindness
Summer has arrived, and it's just a blink of an eye. In the luxurious villa, the ceiling of the hall is hung with colorful crystal lamps, but the strange thing is that the crystal lamps show a white light when they are lit, which makes the different colors of the crystal lamps more reflect the perfection and nobility of this villa.
Unfortunately, the whole hall was surprisingly silent, and the butler stood motionless beside a man, who probably looked young, but was actually almost 50 years old, but still couldn't stop his innate face. No one in City A will not know who he is, and if someone asks who Shen Guojun is, someone will definitely look at you with contempt.
The richest man in City A - Shen Guojun. No one will not know who he is, not to mention that he has a good reputation, in addition to doing his own company, he will also do charitable activities, I heard that he has a particularly large charitable foundation, called Nianlan Foundation. This foundation has rescued children in poor mountainous areas that cannot be calculated, and will also sponsor the tuition fees of poor college students, so Shen Guojun is also a well-known entrepreneur in the country.
Speaking of Shen Guojun, people in City A will always talk about the success of a man, and a woman is indispensable behind him to help him. But in fact, everyone knows that his wife Lu Lan died after giving birth to her daughter. The infatuated Shen Guojun named his daughter Shen Nianlan. Miss Lan Nian Lan, miss Lu Lan.
Until now, 20 years have passed, and there is no one around Shen Guojun except for a woman he loves very much. I heard that this was to pay tribute to Mrs. Lu Lan, no one knew why he had no other women besides Lu Lan, so how many women's hearts he broke back then, and there were even women who loved him who went to plastic surgery to get him into Lu Lan's appearance.
In the hall, Shen Guojun leaned on the sofa and closed his eyes, but didn't say anything. It's just that the eyelashes will tremble slightly, and if you look closely, you must have been a beautiful man when you were young. But I don't know how long it took, Shen Guojun opened his eyes, his eyes were full of red bloodshots, and there were tears flashing in the corners of his eyes.
"Ah Li, what time is it? Shen Guojun said, if you listen carefully, you must be able to hear his voice trembling.
"Sir, it's eleven o'clock in the morning. "The one who is talking is really Shen Guojun's confidant and housekeeper Ah Li, who has been with Shen Guojun for more than ten years, and Shen Guojun has long regarded him as a relative.
Shen Guojun didn't speak, he walked to the window alone, and looked at the scenery outside the window motionlessly, the garden outside was full of many orchids, and the fragrance was overwhelming. The orchid has just bloomed, and I have to say that it is really beautiful, not to mention, it is a sea of flowers?
"It's been twenty years, it's been twenty years. Shen Guojun stood by the window, talking to himself in the sunshine, with a faint sadness in his words, not more emotions.
The housekeeper Ah Li was still standing by the sofa and looking at Shen Guojun quietly, Shen Guojun raised his hand from time to time to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Ah Li knew Shen Guojun very well, he stood like this, he didn't want anyone to see him sad.
Shen Guojun stood there for a long, long time, still staring at the sea of orchids outside the window. Ah Li couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, only Ah Li could understand why Shen Guojun was so sad. Because today is the twentieth anniversary of Mrs. Lu Lan's death, and it is also Miss Shen Nianlan's twentieth birthday, do you think Shen Guojun can not be sad? How these twenty years have passed, only Ah Li can know, because Shen Guojun loves Lu Lan and can live and die together, if Lu Lan had not asked Shen Guojun to treat their daughter well before his death, he would definitely have gone with Lu Lan at that time.
Some people say that if Lu Lan hadn't given birth to Shen Nianlan, Lu Lan would not have died, but so what, Shen Guojun also wanted to hate Shen Nianlan in the past, but he couldn't forget Lu Lan's last words before his death, not to mention, as Shen Nianlan grew up, he became more and more like Lu Lan, and sometimes Shen Guojun thought that Lu Lan came back, but that was an illusion.
Shen Guojun will always remember that when he met Lu Lan, he met in the village, that is, Shen Guojun was very poor, so poor that he had to work and study part-time to complete his studies, and so poor that he had to pick up plastic bottles to sell every day after school.
But Shen Guojun has a naturally handsome face, and I have to say that if he can have a little money, the women of the whole village will definitely marry him, but unfortunately he is a poor bastard.
At that time, Lu Lan was an ordinary family in the village, so he was naturally in the same school as Shen Guojun, Lu Lan was in the second year of high school, and Shen Guojun was in the third year of high school, and the whole school knew that Shen Guojun was the hope of the school, and his grades could be said to be very good, so the school would exempt him from paying tuition and subsidies every semester, but how could this be enough for Shen Guojun to treat his disabled father at home?
The mother remarried, and the father was paralyzed, which is a fact that the whole school knows.
But Lu Lan likes Shen Guojun, but no one knows about it, because she buried him in her heart and put him deep in her heart for love at first sight.
She saw Shen Guojun in the evening, it was Shen Guojun with his sleeves rolled up, holding a sack in his hand, looking around to see if there were plastic bottles on the ground, the afterglow of the sunset shone on Shen Guojun's face, and the crystal beads of sweat dripped on his clothes, making his handsome face even more attractive.
When Lu Lan saw this scene, she was stunned for a long time, her body stood there without obeying the call, the silence around her was terrifying, so terrible that she could even hear her heart beating irregularly, and even a little breathless, at that moment, she thought that she was really hopelessly in love with her. Seventeen-year-old Lu Lan fell in love with eighteen-year-old Shen Guojun.
Whenever school is over, Lu Lan will always quietly follow Shen Guojun, observing Shen Guojun's every move, and sometimes Shen Guojun will be happy because he has picked up a lot of bottles and made some money, so he will laugh. Shen Guojun looked so good when he smiled, but unfortunately he was expressionless at school.
Sometimes, Shen Guojun couldn't pick up a bottle and was very disappointed. Lu Lan naturally didn't want to see Shen Guojun's loss, so she would pick up a lot of bottles from far away and put them in different places to watch Shen Guojun pick them up, and she would laugh when she looked at Shen Guojun, she was really happy to be honest.
But after a long time, Shen Guojun naturally felt that there was a problem, because he picked up more and more bottles, so he naturally felt strange.
One evening Shen Guojun didn't go to pick up the bottle, to find out, so he hid on the side of the road, waiting for the answer he had been puzzled for a long time, after a while, a strange girl was wearing their school clothes, holding a big bag in her hand, which contained a lot of bottles, the girl put the bottles on the road one by one irregularly, Shen Guojun looked at it in shock, he felt inexplicable, walked forward and stood behind the girl, only to see the girl turn around, at a glance it was Lu Lan, but Shen Guojun did not know her.
Lu Lan saw Shen Guojun standing in front of her, and naturally took a big jump of "ah", took a few steps back, and was pulled back by Shen Guojun when she was about to fall.
Lu Lan saw that Shen Guojun had been staring directly at her, and did not speak, it was the first time she looked at Shen Guojun so closely, she lowered her head shyly, only to hear that her heart was beating fast, her face was hot and red, and she didn't dare to look at Shen Guojun.
"Who are you, and why do you put those bottles?" it took a long time for Shen Guojun to speak, his words full of coldness and rejection.
As soon as she was asked like this, Lu Lan was naturally frightened and overwhelmed, but with her lively and cheerful personality, why didn't she take advantage of the opportunity? She liked him and liked everything he had, so why didn't she take the initiative? Do you have to wait until she lost him to know how to cherish it? No, she had to muster up courage.
"I... My name is Lu Lan, I'm here to help you... I really want to help you. Although he still stumbled when he spoke, Lu Lan's eyes were full of determination.
"Heh, I don't need your help at all, don't let me see you in the future, thank you. In fact, when Lu Lan said those words, a trace of warmth flowed through Shen Guojun's heart, but it quickly disappeared.
"No, I'm really helping you, really, actually I... When Lu Lan was said by Shen Junguo, she was suddenly very anxious, and she only felt a sour nose.
"Enough, help me? I still need you to help me, stay away from me. Before Lu Lan could finish speaking, Shen Junguo interrupted her, "Don't let me see you." He didn't dare to say any more, because he saw Lu Lan's tears flowing from his eyes, but how could the stubborn Shen Guojun accept help from others? Seeing Lu Lan crying, in fact, he was a little sour in his heart, and he didn't know why.
Seeing Lu Lan sobbing softly with her head down, Shen Guojun, who wanted to comfort her, turned his head and walked away, but suddenly a voice shook him.
"Shen Guojun!!Don't think you're amazing, I'm really nervous to like you, an arrogant person, and hopelessly like you!" Lu Lan was angry, and infinite power erupted in her petite voice, and the secret buried in her heart was finally said.
Shen Guojun was stunned for a while and stopped, but he didn't turn around, and after a while, he continued to walk forward and left without looking back.
Shen Guojun didn't expect that there would be people who liked him, a poor man who was so poor that he couldn't even eat himself, he repeated his life every day, taking classes and doing homework to take care of his father, although many people once said that they wanted to help him, but who really actually operated it, the girl he didn't know at all, was called Lu Lan. It's really a big joke that she's actually helping him, and she's willing to pick up those dirty bottles for him, but she hasn't just persisted for a while? Like it? Hehe, it's really ridiculous, it's just a child's game, how can anyone like him? Shen Guojun laughed self-deprecatingly.
Watching Shen Guojun's departure, Lu Lan secretly swore in her heart that she would never pay attention to him in the future.
The next day, Lu Lan still rushed to Shen Guojun, who was in the third year of high school, to collect bottles in a distant place before school, and put them in the place where Shen Guojun would usually go.
To be honest, she didn't sleep well all night last night for two reasons, one was happy and the other was sad. Happily, Shen Guojun knew that she liked her, but sadly, Shen Guojun did not make any statement.
But what, if you say that you don't like him anymore, can you really stop liking him? Lu Lan can't do it, it takes a day to fall in love with him, and it is estimated that it will take a lifetime to forget him.
So Lu Lan is not willing to give up at all, not to mention, what is wrong with her, she is lively and cheerful. Lu Lan firmly believes that Shen Guojun will definitely like it, one day.
After she put the bottle in place, Lu Lan hid, only to see Shen Guojun in the distance coming over, he still had the sack in his hand, and it was still empty, obviously Shen Guojun had just finished school.
Shen Guojun still picked up the bottles as usual, but there were still surprisingly many bottles. Shen Guojun bent down to pick it up, and suddenly looked up ahead, Shen Guojun naturally saw a smaller figure and instantly hid in the corner, trying to hide his whole person from being discovered by him.
He didn't know why, a warm current in his heart flowed in large quantities from his heart, and he only heard the inner monologue, what a stupid thing, didn't he say that he wouldn't come again?
He grinned, his heart was as happy as the sun, he pretended not to see Lu Lan who was hiding not far away, he picked up his bottle, and from time to time he would wipe the sweat from his forehead, and the smell of sweat was quite big.
Lu Lan, who was hiding in the corner, thought that Shen Guojun didn't see her, and Shen Guojun still picked up the bottle without thinking about it as before, her heart finally calmed down, she breathed a big sigh of relief, and continued to show her eyes and stare at him quietly, until Shen Guojun picked it up and sold it, and saw Shen Guojun's happy expression after getting the money, she would be in a good mood and reluctantly go home.
In fact, all this is Lu Lan willingly, she just wants to see Shen Guojun laugh, even if it is a smile, she likes Shen Guojun laughing very much, it is really like a bright sun hanging high in the blue sky, and she is like a wild flower, the sun is shining on her, he is happy, she will be happy.
It lasted silently for a few months, and in the first two months of Shen Guojun's college entrance examination, every student would feel nervous, but Shen Guojun was still doing what he had to do. I don't see any pressure at all, after all, he is also the first in school, it's normal not to be nervous, his mind is so developed, and the key schools are certain.
Just a week before the college entrance examination, Lu Lan still picked up bottles from a long distance as usual, but she was still very anxious, because Shen Guojun was about to graduate and take the college entrance examination, she suddenly felt confused, does this mean that she will never see him again in the future?
As abnormal, Lu Lan waited in the corner for a long time, but did not see Shen Guojun's figure, Lu Lan was a little anxious to wait, ran out of the corner and looked around, and suddenly a familiar voice sounded behind him.
"You have persisted for so long, haven't you ever thought about giving up?" Shen Guojun didn't know when he stood in front of Lu Lan, holding his hands on his chest, and looking at Lu Lan who was frightened with an indifferent expression.
Shen Guojun didn't know why the girl in front of him was so obsessed with him, and he didn't know what was good about him, worthy of her persistence, didn't he clearly say that he wanted to give up? What a fool, in fact, Shen Guojun himself knew that in just a few months, he recognized his heart, and he thought that he also liked her.
No one has ever really cared about him, no one has really understood and helped him, which is why he is so indifferent and so little, because he and they are not from the same world. But Lu Lan appeared, he has been helping him in the past few months, he knows that she likes him, but she doesn't know, now he also likes Lu Lan, and he doesn't know how to say to Lu Lan that he likes her, this has always been his character, it is really difficult to speak.
"I've thought about it, but it's just thinking about it, Shen Guojun, I don't care what you think in your heart, I don't care if you like me or not, I just know that it's enough for me to like you, yes, you're poor, but what about being poor? I just don't dislike you, the more you reject me, the more I like you, because I like this real you, I just want you to know that you are not alone, you still have me, even if the whole world abandons you, at least I know I won't, because I am going through so many twists and turns with you now!" These words have been held in Lu Lan's heart for a long, long time, she has long wanted to tell Shen Guojun, but she herself has never had the courage to speak, but when she thinks that Shen Guojun is in her third year of high school, she will soon leave her, she can't go on like this, he has to tell her all his words, otherwise there will be no chance, she firmly believes that after she says it, she will definitely not regret it, even if she is rejected.
When Shen Guojun heard this, his heart immediately warmed up, he grabbed Lu Lan with one hand, held her in his arms, and said softly, "Fool" , and then smiled, the corners of his eyes were a little moist, he didn't know why his nose was sour all suddenly, and he wanted to cry, but the tears just flowed down in his eyes, Shen Guojun's heart was not only moved, he really realized that he didn't just like Lu Lan, but also loved, this silly girl, really loved herself to the point of madness, willing to share weal and woe with him, Shen Guojun didn't know how long he hadn't shed tears, hugged Lu Lan tightly and didn't let go, he didn't feel so warm for a long, long time, and he didn't want to let go.
"What's wrong with you, what's wrong, hey, don't scare me, I didn't say so much, I'm just, I just thought that you are going to take the college entrance examination, you have to take the college entrance examination, doesn't the college entrance examination mean that you have to disappear in front of my eyes, I don't want to, I don't want you to leave, but you must leave, I must tell you these words, otherwise I am afraid that I will regret it after you leave, Shen Guojun, I really like you." Being hugged by Shen Guojun like this, the idiot Lu Lan was a little overwhelmed, and Lu Lan, who couldn't turn her brain, thought that her words had made Shen Guojun angry, so she kept explaining.
"Fool, I seem to like you too, what do you say?" Shen Guojun let go and looked at Lu Lan affectionately, Lu Lan is actually not good-looking, at most she is delicate, but he still likes her.
"Ah, what, what are you talking about, you said you liked me? Really, don't scare me, this joke is not fun at all, no, it is indeed true? Ah, I am so happy!!" Lu Lan jumped up with excitement, ran around, and even pinched herself with her hand, thinking that she was dreaming.
Shen Guojun looked at Lu Lan so happy, and he laughed himself, he hadn't laughed like this for a long time. Lu Lan felt that Shen Guojun looked good when he smiled, really good-looking.
"You know, I think you look good when you smile, really good-looking, can you laugh more, I still want to see it, I can't see enough, hehe, I'm laughing. Lu Lan looked at Shen Guojun with a look, and that expression made Shen Guojun laugh.
Next, Shen Guojun participated in the college entrance examination, because with Lu Lan's silent support, Shen Guojun answered the questions in the examination room very smoothly, because his heart was full of sweetness and love, and he himself saw the world differently, he had been answering the questions seriously, and Lu Lan had been waiting outside the school gate since he came to send Shen Guojun into the examination room, and he had never left, because she was afraid that as soon as she left by herself, the college entrance examination was over, and Shen Guojun would be very anxious if she couldn't see herself, so she kept sitting under the tree and spread it with a newspaper, and then waited there until she fell asleep.
After the last subject, all the candidates cheered all their lives, and after three years of hard work, they finally finished in today's examination room, boys either played with each other to express their inner excitement, and girls hugged each other, but some girls cried very miserably, after the exam, some people were happy, some people were sad, and Shen Guojun's expression after the exam was still the same as usual, and he couldn't tell whether he was sad or happy, but everyone knew who Shen Guojun was, but he was the first in the school, and this time it must be no problem.
Shen Guojun walked out of the school, the school gate was crowded with people, parents and students greeted each other, some parents were even so nervous that they were thankful, worshipping God, Shen Guojun looked at those parents, and couldn't help but look for a figure in the crowd.
Finally, Shen Guojun searched for a long time, and saw a familiar and petite figure not far away, she sat under the tree and buried her head under the creaky nest, it seemed that she had fallen asleep, Shen Guojun's heart warmed, waiting from morning to now, what a fool.
He saw that Lu Lan was sleeping soundly, and he couldn't bear to wake her up, so Shen Guojun sat quietly in front of Lu Lan, looking at Lu Lan in a daze, his heart was extremely surging, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Shen Guojun didn't know what was going on, he had been unsettled since he came out of the examination room, as if something bad was going to happen, but he didn't know what it would be, so he didn't dare to continue to think about it, and kept looking at Lu Lan, who looked like a child when she was asleep, and the whole person was curled up together.
After the exam, not only is it a lot easier, this summer he can work hard, treat his father, and then he can stay with Lu Lan for a long time, he has been busy reviewing for the past two months, and rarely talks to Lu Lan, because he wants to give Lu Lan a very good future, at the same time, these two must be Lu Lan angry, so cold, he himself is not good at words, most of the topics are found by Lu Lan, and when he reviewed, she just sat quietly and wrote her homework.
In just a few months, there are so many good memories.
