Chapter 497: Something Meaningful
"It's been a long time!"
Wen Liang sat down opposite Qi Shu, examining her face, the once long hair had become Qi Er's short hair, and I don't know if it was a prison rule, or if it was a clear ambition to break with the past. Without the delicate makeup of the past, the face has a soft smile, the long eyelashes are upturned, and there is a little playfulness in the maturity, but more is refreshing and demure.
"How's that, I haven't suffered any grievances in this time inside, right?"
Qi Shu tucked a strand of hair behind his ear and chuckled: "It's good, eat on time, sleep peacefully, usually participate in some physical labor, read books and read newspapers in my spare time, although such days are dull, but carefree, it is already a rare comfort for me over the years." ”
"That's good, everyone says that prison is a bitter kiln, grinding people's temperament, boiling people's edges and corners, and all that is left is the twilight like stagnant water, I've always been worried, and now it's a blessing to see you have such a state of mind."
Qi Shu called the boss to bring tea, poured a cup for Wen Liang with his own hands, and said: "Thank you for Wen Shao's care, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be a completely different look." ”
Qi Shu is not a fool, of course the real prison will not be as like a paradise as she described, if it weren't for Wen Yu's words, Liu Tianlai personally explained to the prison leaders, this year's prison life will be a hundred times more terrifying than hell.
Wen Liang took the tea, took a sip, and said: "Since it came out, there is no need to mention the past, in the final analysis, you have this disaster, or because of me, everyone will settle it." ”
Although it is true that Qi Shu was sent in by Wen Yu, but at that time, each was his master, either you died or I lived, and there was nothing to complain about if he made a bad move. And Wen Forgiveness not only did not fall into the ground, but regardless of the past suspicions, deliberately took care of it, how could she not keep this favor in her heart?
Qi Shu smiled: "Wen Shao said that it will be flat, but I will inevitably take advantage of you." ”
Wen Liang wanted to joke that being taken advantage of by a beautiful woman like you was something that any man dreams of, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back, with his identity and Qi Shu's own experience, it seemed too frivolous to say such things.
A little groaning. Wen Liang got straight to the point and said, "Qi Shu, I came today, what I came for, I think you also know." Just now I saw Mr. Mu return with a broken feather, and I know that today may not be a good time to speak, but time waits for no one, I still have important things to do in a few days and need to go far away, and I am afraid that it will not be so easy to come back and find you. So I can only choose to talk to you today. He paused and said seriously: "It's still the mention I made a year ago, I don't know what you think about?" ”
Qi Shu was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice, "Wen Shao." It is said that a person like me can be invited by you personally, and he should not be ignorant, but you have a lot of talents. With me or not, it really doesn't make a difference. To be honest, I just want to find a quiet place right now. It's just a dull life.,I really don't want to wander among all kinds of men like before.,Serve people with color......"
Wen Yu shook his head and said: "Don't be presumptuous, and you don't need to worry about anything else, the biggest difference between me and Gu Shitong is that I never force my subordinates to do what they don't want to do." It's true that I value your abilities, but this value has nothing to do with your so-called communication skills. Qi Shu, you are a smart person, you should understand a truth, there has never been real freedom in this world, Mu Zechen touched a nail today, there will be tomorrow, tomorrow he touched a nail, and there will be the day after tomorrow, how long can you hide? Taking a step back, Mu Zechen is reluctant to force you, but what kind of person Gu Shitong is, you won't know, I think he has deeply felt how much resistance Minghua has encountered in the year he lost you, and he also understands how important you are to Minghua to him, so as long as you stay in Qingzhou for a day, he will not give up. ”
"It turns out that you saw it outside the prison gate just now." Qi Shu lowered his head, held the water cup in both hands, looked at his reflection in the water, and said, "My heart is dead, what is the use of him if he doesn't give up?" ”
Wen Liang sighed and said, "If you don't give up, it will always ruin your purity, since you can't be pure, why don't you come out and really do something meaningful?" ”
"What makes sense?" Qi Shu smiled: "Wen Shao, the days of your fighting, killing and killing, I'm afraid it's not less than Gu Shitong, right?" ”
Wen Yu also smiled and said: "In the world, no one is exempt from the vulgar when they fight for fame and fortune, but in addition to fighting, there are also things that do not fight, such as the 'Care for Girls' Foundation, I don't know if you have heard of it?" ”
Qi Shu shook his head, Wen forgive established this foundation, or after the collapse of Gu Wenyuan, he blackmailed Gu Shi with five million as the original capital to set up, and later added a lot of investment, and now he has jointly implemented the "penny" plan with Yishanshui, and gradually has a certain scale. However, Qi Shu was already in prison when it was established, and although he could read books and newspapers in prison, after all, the sources were limited and he knew nothing about it.
"This foundation, which was established by Qinghe and is affiliated with the Youth Development Foundation, specializes in helping little girls from out-of-school, bereaved and extremely poor families in mountainous and rural areas to improve their life opportunities......
In this year, even the Hope Project has just started, not to mention the private charity fund, which is basically in a blank state, Qi Shu did not react for a while, and said: "This is a good thing, but what can I do?" Donate money? I don't have much money, I can only donate 200,000 at most. ”
"Well, it's not about fundraising...... Wen Yu had a little headache, and said: "To put it simply, I want to hire you as the general manager of the foundation, that is, I will pay the money, you will manage the money, and jointly develop and grow the foundation, so as to benefit more little girls in trouble......"
Qi Shu was completely stunned, with her cleverness, she thought of many ways to persuade her with kindness, but she never thought that she would be pulled to do charity.
Do charity, help people?
Do I look a lot like a good person?
Qi Shu wanted to ask Wen Liang this question, but somehow, when she heard this mention, her already dusty heart fluctuated instantly, as if a small gap had cracked in the cloudy sky, allowing people walking in the darkness to see the subtle but brighter and brighter light above their heads.
"Qi Shu, I still remember that you once told me that you were very envious of the little girl in Yuxiangyuan, and envied that someone pulled her when she knelt." "Now I'm giving you the opportunity to pull more girls in distress in the same way, so that they don't have to repeat the kind of life you hate." And taking care of the affairs of the Foundation, neither of you have to get involved in this dirty world full of intrigue, nor do you have to be afraid to help me deal with Gu Shitong, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? ”
Is Qi Shu a good person in the pure sense of the word?
No!
But she is not a bad person in the absolute sense, after betrayal and suffering, she has learned all the cunning and people's hearts, it can be said that she is close to returning to the basics, her heart is like water, she is indifferent, and she will no longer be shaken by various temptations, but she has the ability and means to deal with all kinds of complex situations, such a person is the best candidate for the helm of the charity foundation!
"I, can I?"
Qi Shu showed a confused look, she didn't think about doing something in prison, she could guard the Xiang Ji Kitchen to earn some stable money, sit day after day and wait for her old age, or she could sell the Xiang Ji Kitchen, take the money she has saved over the years and fly away, find a place where no one knows her anymore and settle down, maybe if you are lucky enough, you can meet the right person to start a family and have children, and live like most ordinary people.
But a person like her never dared to have the slightest extravagant hope for the future, even the dandelion with her back to Zhuang Shaoxuan fell down, and even the cat lady had to flee in a hurry, and her whereabouts are still unknown, how dare she hope for the future?
Qi Shu lives in prison, and Zhang Qiyun from the Aroma Kitchen has to come to visit every week, first, to save enough money for the prison to make expenses, second, to report on the affairs of the store, and third, to talk about a little news in the city, and Zhang Qiyun doesn't know anything else, but Dandelion has fallen, and the cat lady has disappeared for such a big thing, he can still hear a little rumor.
Wen Liang called Chang Cheng and said, "Let Xie Yan come in." ”
The car door opened, Xie Yan, who had been staying in the car, jumped out of the car, walked into the hotel and saw Wen Liang waving to her, and hurriedly walked over.
Wen Liang pointed at Xie Yan and smiled at Qi Shu: "Do you still recognize it?" ”
Qi Shu raised his head and said in surprise: "Is it her?" ”
"It's her!" Wen Liang nodded and said: "Her name is Xie Yan, she is now a college student in the Department of Economics of Jiangdong University, with excellent academic performance, and what is even more commendable is that she has an active mind and strong hands-on ability. ”
Qi Shu's eyes burst into brilliance, who would have thought that the humble and worthless waitress would have such a day? If you can really give all girls who have been like her and Xie Yan a chance to choose their fate and change their fate, such a work must be more meaningful than anything else!
Wen Liang seized the opportunity to give the final blow, and said in the tone of the gray wolf to deceive Mei Yangyang: "If you are willing to come to the foundation, I want Xie Yan to study with you, after all, no matter how much you learn in school, it is better to experience it in society, let her follow you, I can rest assured." ”
Although Xie Yan didn't know what was going on, he also understood that the person who could make Wen Liang rush here from Qingzhou early in the morning to wait for him must be very important to him, so he said obediently: "In the future, please ask my sister to take care of me, if I do something wrong, just criticize me." ”
Looking at Xie Yan's pure eyes, Qi Shu felt that he had no reason to refuse, and said with a wry smile: "Wen Shao, I agreed." (To be continued......)
