Chapter 16: The Warm Afternoon Sun

Grandma Gu's legs and feet are inconvenient, Gu's father and they can't come back, the task of taking care of Gu Shaoqing fell to Mu Ran, who had just finished the game, Mu Ran was nothing, this boy was beaten badly for the little orange cat, and he can be regarded as a kind "good young man". Gu Shaoqing seemed to be seriously injured, covered in injuries, but in fact, he only needed to fix his legs to recuperate, so in just a few days, under Mu Ran's feeding, he was already alive again, and the two of them also became topical from the silence at the beginning.

"So, you studied karate?" Gu Shaoqing swallowed a big mouthful of meat and looked at her incredulously.

"Yes, you have to learn to protect yourself, like you, just rush up and do it with your head stuffy." Mu Ran gave him another bowl of soup, sat down and began to stroke Ahu, Ahu rolled comfortably, lying on his lap and not moving.

Gu Shaoqing rarely refuted, he has always rushed up to fight whenever he encounters injustice, he really didn't think about what would happen if he couldn't fight, anyway, he would strike first, and he must not let the bad guys be proud, Lin Wan didn't say anything, but he would help him wrap his wounds and let him be careful in the future, this is the first time, the girl in front of him choked herself without shying away from it. The girl in the sun wore her hair and stroked Ah Hu quietly, with a smile on her face, it was really.... It's beautiful.

"Ahem, I'm acting bravely, you don't understand."

"Okay~ I don't understand, but," Mu Ran looked up at him, "You can't fight when something happens, you should get better so that you won't let grandma worry about you, do you say?" ”

Shaoqing looked at Mu Mu, who was serious, and some strange emotions surged up in his heart, remembering that he had worked hard for a good grade back then, but he was hit by his father for nothing, everyone gave up on him, and in the end, he also gave up on himself. But now someone told him that you could do better.

"But I...."Gu Shaoqing lowered his head silently, he felt a little scared for the first time, as if a person who had been in hell all the time, suddenly someone wanted to pull him out and let him feel the beauty of the world.

Mu Ran looked at Gu Shaoqing, and recalled what Grandma Gu said to her in her mind: "Mu Mu, you have to persuade Shaoqing more, I have an old bone, and I can't protect him for long, you have to help him more, if he is as good as you, I will... Don't worry about it. "Eh.... Since separating from Chaodui, if it weren't for Grandma Gu and Ah Hu as companions, I would definitely die of boredom, forget it, everything that should be said has been said, it's up to you to make it.

"I can accompany you, I don't have anything to do anyway, just say what you want to do."

Gu Shaoqing looked up at the girl, her eyes were very sincere, and the two big eyes looked at him, which gave him the courage to prove himself.

"Okay."

The day ended happily. As soon as he entered the ward door the next day, Mu Ran heard the words of the bodyguard: "Young master, we have dealt with all the people who beat you last time, the detention fine, and the compensation for the injured animals have all been obtained, Mr. Gu said, let you learn a lesson this time, as long as you don't leave the ward door this month, you can do anything." Mu Ran gently put down the insulated lunch box, and the bodyguard knew that the girl had saved the young master, so he didn't avoid it, and turned around and handed an envelope to the girl.

"Miss, Mr. thank you very much for your help, the orange cat's medical expenses and a little bit of Mr.'s heart are here, and I hope you will help our young master more in the future." Chen Muran tilted his head and looked at the boy, this boy is quite big, he has gone to the whole game, she didn't shirk much, she accepted the envelope and served him a meal. The two of them were eating slowly, and Gu Shaoqing asked her a little comfortably: "Hey, you won't mind... My dad..."

"No, everyone has their own way, besides," Mu Ran filled another bowl of soup, "I cook every day and come to accompany you, and I also have to charge~"

Mu Ran's joke was just right, the two of them didn't have a dislike because of this matter, after eating, Gu Shaoqing called Mu Ran, who was cleaning up: "Mu Mu... What do you like?"

Mu Ran was stunned for a moment, Mu Mu's nickname, only her mother Chao Du and Grandma Gu would call her that, but Gu Shaoqing didn't know her full name, and it was understandable, but there was a little ... Excuse me.

"I like orange cats, chubby, super cute."

"Then I'll take a few photos of Ah Hu, although I can't do anything else, but it's still nice to take pictures." Gu Shaoqing's only hobby is taking pictures, and his skills are already very high at a young age, and he has won awards.

"Okay, but I prefer the orange cat I painted," Mu Ran hugged Ahu in his arms, "I once saw an orange cat painting in an art exhibition, it was really beautiful, it looked like it was alive." Mu Ran packed up his things, went back with Ahu, and made an appointment to bring the camera to take a photo of Ahu in the afternoon. Mu Ran didn't take the matter of orange cat painting to heart, but Gu Shaoqing immediately made a decision, he wanted to learn to paint.

Mu Ran didn't come to take pictures of Ahu as promised, Gu Shaoqing waited for a long time, it was getting dark, and there was still no Mu Mu at the door. Until finally the bodyguard pushed the door in.

"Young master, Miss Mu Mu called, saying that she had an urgent matter and needed to go out, and she might not come back in a week." Gu Shaoqing said calmly on the surface that he knew, but he was very disappointed in his heart. It is calculated that the two of them have been getting along day and night for more than half a month, and suddenly there is no Mu Mu, he is very unaccustomed to it. But he already has something he wants to do, for a few days, in addition to masturbating Ahu, he is learning to paint orange cats with the hired art teacher, a week has passed, two weeks have passed, Mu Mu has not come back, but Lin Wan has come. Lin Yun looked at Shaoqing who suddenly forgot to sleep and eat to learn to paint, a little strange, but no matter how she asked, no one told her what happened, so she had to keep her mouth shut and stay by Shaoqing's side every day.

A month later, Shaoqing was about to leave, and he had completed the first orange cat painting in his life, he ran back to his grandmother's house in high spirits and knocked on Mu Mu's door, but no one opened the door for a long time.

"Shaoqing? Are you looking for me? Behind him came the girl's crisp voice.

Shaoqing turned her head, the girl was carrying the suitcase, still wearing the blue hat on her head, and looked at him with a smile on her face.

"You've just come back, where have you been?" Shaoqing saw the girl she was thinking about, not to mention how happy she was.

"My mom sometimes needs my help, so I'm coming back late, I'm sorry~"

"It's okay, that...."Gu Shaoqing took out the things in his hand a little shyly and handed it to her, "This is my gift to you, um... The words may be a little ugly, I'm leaving soon, I hope you'll like it. ”

Mu Ran took it and slowly unfolded the painting, it was an orange cat lying by the window, the orange cat's lazy expression seemed to be alive, and there were four crooked words in the lower right corner: Warm sun in the afternoon. Mu Ran laughed happily: "I think it's very good-looking, it doesn't affect it, you're really amazing~"

Gu Shaoqing couldn't help blushing, a month's hard work was not in vain, although... The words are a bit ugly, but as long as she likes it, everything is worth it: "Then you have to keep it well, and I will become better with you in the future." ”

"Okay, let's work together to be excellent!"

Gu Shaoqing often thinks of Mu Mu, thinks of Mu Mu's smile, thinks of what she said to him, and what she has done for him, every time she thinks about it, she is very happy. But when he returned to his grandmother's house again with joy, he never saw Mu Mu again. Grandma said that Mu Mu's grades were very good, and the school rented her a house in the city, and she only came back to see her and Ahu occasionally when she was free on weekends, and she hadn't seen Mu Mu for a long time.

Gu Shaoqing never saw Mu Mu again, as if he had never seen her, and he couldn't even remember her name, only knowing that her name was Mu Mu. He was waiting every day, and he didn't know what he was waiting for, but the people around him felt that Gu Shaoqing was becoming more and more gentle, he worked hard to learn to paint, learn to take pictures, even if the results were not very ideal, he still had his shining point. Father Gu was very pleased, and in his heart, he was also very grateful to that girl, although he had never seen it, she must be very good.
