68. Honesty (1)
Just when Fu Wenxuan obviously began to waver because of what Gao Ran said, Gao Ran didn't notice his silence at all because he deliberately turned his face away and didn't look at him.
She just thought, "Since he was silent and didn't mean to interrupt me, then I'd just finish it all in one sitting!
Thinking like this, Gao Ran continued to say to himself, "Whether you believe it or not, I really didn't deliberately approach you! Like today, I will meet you three times in a row in the morning...... It was really an accident!"
Speaking of this, Gao Ran paused slightly, and then said with some emotion, "Although I don't want to think like that...... But such a coincidence, I can only understand that it is 'fate'......"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Ran immediately realized that what he had just said seemed to be a little ambiguous......
In order to avoid suspicion, she immediately turned her head, looked at Fu Wenxuan squarely, and quickly explained to him seriously, "Ah! However, don't get me wrong! When I say 'fate', I don't mean 'that' fate...... I don't have any idea of 'that' for you! To be honest, I don't want to marry you! I'm just thinking that I've been able to meet you three times in a row in the morning...... Maybe that's what God meant-I want to choose to help you instead of helping An Yujie......"
"Help me?!"
Although Fu Wenxuan has been busy smoothing out all kinds of "clues" since just now, he can gradually understand that if she thinks about it from Gao Ran's point of view, since she already knows the relationship between him and An Yujie, it is indeed difficult for her to open her mouth to directly show him her true identity......
But, what does it mean to help him?!
If it's just because she doesn't want to get married, then why did she say that it was God's meaning - to ask her to choose to help him instead of helping An Yujie?!
Instinctively told him that Gao Ran's real purpose would definitely not be as simple as she said, "I don't want to marry"!
"Hmmm......"
Gao Ran didn't answer Fu Wenxuan's question immediately, but looked at him with a slight groan, thinking for a while. Then, he replied with certainty, "Hmm!"
Immediately afterward, she explained calmly and unhurriedly. "I know, you won't believe me when I say 'help you', it's just that I don't want to be married!"
Although he did think so in his heart, when such thoughts were said by Gao Ran so directly and bluntly, Fu Wenxuan still inevitably felt a little embarrassed because he was directly told through his heart - his eyes began to deliberately avoid and try not to make contact with Gao Ran's gaze. His face couldn't help but be a little paler than before......
But, even so, he did not deny Gao Ran's words, but chose to acquiesce.
When Gao Ran saw this, he guessed that he might not be good at dealing with such a scene of "negotiation" with someone he didn't know very well, so he didn't embarrass him - after all, she had already said that she "sincerely" wanted to be friends with him, so naturally she had to release her kindness to him appropriately and make him feel it!
So, Gao Ran pretended not to notice anything. "You're right! My purpose is not as simple as 'I don't want to get married'! But 'I don't want to get married' is also true. So, I'm not lying to you! I just didn't tell you the whole story!"
Gao Ran felt that for a young master like Fu Wenxuan who had not seen much of the world, but still knew how to "guard against people's hearts", if she wanted him to be able to make friends with her with confidence and sincerity, then the first thing she had to do was not to release too much kindness to him, but to release moderate kindness to him, but also to let him see the dark side of her "moderation" - for example. The little "careful" she had just confessed to him about her......
After hearing this, Fu Wenxuan finally stopped avoiding looking at Gao Ran, but looked at her thoughtfully.
Gao Ran, on the other hand, "inadvertently" looked away. Then the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he smiled a little disdainfully and slightly mockingly.
"Heh!'Young Master Fu', you shouldn't really be naïve to think that there really be a kind of 'good person' in this world who helps others without asking for anything in return, right?! If you really think like that, then I will remind you 'kindly' that everyone does anything. And the essence of these motives is to better benefit oneself without exception! Even if someone treats you well, it is true that he does not ask for any material reward from you, but do you really understand the motive behind his actions? I am afraid that the reward he really wants may not be imagined at all! Perhaps, he does that but he is only his self-satisfaction, and you, to him, are just a 'collaborator'; or perhaps, his' 'Don't ask for returns', in fact, it is to put a long line to catch big fish, and to seek a long-term and greater return...... And for you who don't know the whole story behind that person, how can you know it all?!
In order to persuade Fu Wenxuan to agree with his own point of view, Gao Ran took himself as an example, "Take me as an example! Don't look at me as small, but I can also make money by my own ability! Moreover, I have always had a principle of making money, if I make money, I will donate part of it to do good deeds." And I'm not doing this with the intention of getting anything in return from those I have helped...... What I really want to do is not only to give my strength to maintain the good order of the social environment I live in, but also to seek peace of mind, to accumulate more blessings for myself, and to offset the bad luck that may come with the arrival of good things...... So, in essence, I do those good deeds that 'don't ask for anything in return', but it's actually for myself! In order to make myself more blessed, in order to be able to do my best to ensure the stability of my own living environment...... In the end, I just want to make my life better and more stable! This is the ultimate goal of my good deeds!"
"What about me?!, if you helped me when we first met in the morning, it was just a 'good deed' to accumulate some blessings for yourself...... So, why do you want to make me a friend now?! And you say you want to 'help' me?! What do you want from me in return?!"
At this time, Fu Wenxuan looked at Gao Ran with a calm face-he did not show disdain for her because of what she just said, nor was he angered by her because of those words, thinking that she was actually trying to use him......
Because, in the previous "competition" with Gao Ran, Fu Wenxuan already knew clearly that he was not her "opponent" now!
However, it is precisely because of such clear self-knowledge that he knows even more that people like Gao Ran just said that at first glance, almost every sentence will prick the sensitive nerves of many people, and because of this, it is easy to have anti-feelings for her, but people like her will say things like that...... By doing so, not only does she not prove that she has ulterior motives for him, on the contrary, she does so, but it makes him feel that she is sincere to him!
It was precisely because he had this intuitive feeling in his heart that was diametrically opposed to the appearance of what he saw, that even if he was indeed stimulated by what Gao Ran said just now, Fu Wenxuan couldn't get angry no matter what, on the contrary, he calmed down more than before.
At this time, there was only one voice in his heart, "As long as you can give me a 'reasonable' reason, I will believe in your sincerity!" (To be continued. )
