Chapter 14: Moving and Encountering Ran Jiang Again
As soon as school ended, Cao Aiqian hurried home, and she made an appointment with the moving master by phone and said that she would move things at six o'clock today.
Although it is a move, there is not much left of the accessories in the house that are sold by themselves, and there are no valuable objects at all.
As soon as he got out of the car, Cao Aiqian saw Ran Jiang wandering at the door of Cao's villa, "Ran Jiang? She shouted in surprise and hurriedly trotted over.
As soon as Ran Jiang saw her, he immediately smiled, and then he reached out to help Cao Ai carry his backpack.
"Why are you here?" Cao Aiqian hurriedly said.
"I'm wondering, too!" Ran Jiang replied with a slight smile, "Aunt Zhang from the famous community of the academy said that a girl moved today and asked me to come over and move for her!"
"The address I gave me is the villa complex on your side." Ran Jiang scratched his hair and said with an unconsciously unconsciousnessed face: "I was about to call Aunt Zhang to ask her!" ”
Cao Ai was slightly stunned, the moving master was indeed the number given by the landlord Aunt Zhang, but she didn't expect it to be Ran Jiang, and she didn't know how to explain it for a while.
"Hey... Actually, I was the one who was going to move. Cao Aiqian saw that Ran Jiang took out his mobile phone and was about to call the landlord, so he hurriedly said first.
"What...!" Ran Jiang looked incredulous, and then his face sank and he reprimanded loudly: "Is it Cao Kowen's kid who wants to kick you out?" I'll settle accounts with him. ”
"Nope!"
"Boss, you don't have to explain it to him! I called the brothers and asked him to walk around today without food. ”
Seeing that Ran Jiang was about to rush into the villa, Cao Aiqian grabbed him and stopped him loudly: "I want to move out by myself." ”
Ran Jiang's emotions calmed down, and he asked puzzledly, "Why?" ”
"Hey, you help me move first, and I'll tell you when I get to the rented place." Cao Aiqian finished speaking impatiently and walked towards the villa.
Ran Jiang silently followed closely, kicking the loose goose warm stone under his feet as he walked, humming an incomprehensible Cantonese song on his lips.
Cao Aiqian's luggage was very small, just a few clothes were randomly packed into a box.
She stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself inside.
It's not particularly outstanding, but it's a very pure and lovely little face.
Cao Ai smiled and grimaced in the mirror, and said silently in his heart: Goodbye, Cao Kouwen!
Suddenly, a boy's face appeared in the mirror standing behind Cao Aiqian, Ran Jiang was wearing simple clothes, he had lost a lot of weight for a few days, his hair was unkempt, and his face was still dirty with oil stains, he smiled brightly and posed in the mirror for a few times, and then turned around to pick up his luggage.
In Cao Aiqian's memory, Ran Jiang should be two years older than her, and it stands to reason that he has just turned 18 this year, and he has been mixing in society since he completed nine years of compulsory education in junior high school.
He met Cao Aiqian at a bar two years ago.
At that time, Cao Aiqian offended several gangsters in society, and was surrounded by several adult men who were ready to take turns to commit violence.
Since then, they have been called brothers, and Cao Aiqian has also spent a lot of money to support his group of brothers.
"Other brothers?" Cao Aiqian asked.
"They... There are two who were locked up in the bureau for robbery not long ago, and..."Ran Jiang casually recounted the recent past.
Cao Aiqian never expected that he didn't pay attention to them for more than a month, and there would be such a big change one by one, perhaps because he used to support them with money, and suddenly one day he stopped caring about them, and they had no skills to inevitably do something that violated the law.
"That's... How did you get moving? Cao Ai lowered his head and asked in a low voice.
Ran Jiang looked at Cao Aiqian's expression and couldn't help laughing: "Boss, this is to care about me." ”
After a long time, Ran Jiang scratched his hair a little unconsciously. "I... I have to feed my sister, and I can't do anything against the law. ”
Cao Aiqian didn't ask anything anymore, and scolded himself silently in his heart, he didn't know that he had a sister after knowing Ran Jiang for more than two years.
Soon, Ran Jiang put his luggage in the trunk of the car, which he had borrowed, and he had to return it in time.
The car soon drove into the famous community of the academy, and Ran Jiang moved all his suitcases into the rental house.
Seeing that the room had not been cleaned, Ran Jiang couldn't help frowning: "Boss, I'll clean your room after I return the car!" ”
Cao Ai was slightly stunned, and he was embarrassed to refuse his kindness, so he agreed.
After Ran Jiang finished leaving the car, he also went to the supermarket to buy some fruits and snacks, and he remembered that Cao Aiqian used to call her in the middle of the night to buy her food.
"Bang!" The door was pushed open.
"Boss, did you sort this out?" Ran Jiang was just about to walk into the house with his front feet, but he withdrew his legs again, and looked at the orderly room with an incredulous expression.
In his impression, Cao Aiqian is a young lady who does not touch the spring water with her fingers.
The room was very nicely furnished and looked very homely.
The bed is covered with soft and comfortable sheets, the walls are covered with large white floral curtains, a beautiful crystal chandelier hangs from the ceiling, and there are many cute and beautiful knick-knacks scattered throughout the room......
Cao Aiqian's eyes were full of surprise when he watched Ran Jiang walk in.
"What's the matter, your boss and I'm amazing!"
"That's amazing!" Ran Jiang changed his shoes and walked in, put fruit snacks on the coffee table, and looked around the house incredulously.
"Then it doesn't seem like anything is wrong with me!" He laughs.
"Since you're here, let's eat some fruit and go!" Cao Ai saw that he carried a large bag of fruit snacks.
The two sat on the sofa next to them and chatted.
"How much does Aunt Zhang promise you to move?" Cao Aiqian asked casually.
Ran Jiang shook his head and joked embarrassedly: "What moving fee do you want to move!" "
"Whoa!" Cao Aiqian took out 500 yuan from her pocket and handed it to Ran Jiang, she paid the rent of 3,800 yuan for half a year, and there was not much left on her body.
Ran Jiang was stunned for a moment, looked at her suspiciously, and said, "What did you get from selling clothes last time you went to the South Gate Market?" ”
"You don't care!"
"No, it's too much for me to want, you don't have any money yourself now." Ran Jiang pushed the money into her hand again.
Cao Aiqian looked at her and said seriously: "Don't worry, I can make a little money now, and Cao Kowen will give me this month's pocket money in advance." She shoved the money back into his hands.
Ran Jiang had no choice but to put the money back in his pocket, and muttered in a low voice: "Your brother gave you that little pocket money, it looks like a rich family gave it to a girl." ”
The two chatted a few more words, and it was getting late, and Ran Jiang was ready to go back to rest.
Before leaving, Cao Aiqian suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, your sister...?" ”
"She lives in the House of Hope." Complicated emotions flashed in Ran Jiang's eyes, and he looked at Cao Aiqian and said.
The House of Hope is an orphanage built by the local government.
Cao Aiqian suddenly said with some embarrassment, "I didn't expect this...... Excuse me! "
"It's okay, it's okay! I can't feed her if I bring her out. Ran Jiang waved his hand, and a gentle smile appeared on his face.
"I can go see her when I have time in the future!" Cao Ai said with a light smile.
Ran Jiang was slightly stunned, and then nodded.
"Then I'll go first."
After Ran Jiang finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Looking at his back, Cao Aiqian's heart swelled with a faint sense of loss.
She is also an orphan in this world, but she was just lucky enough to be taken in by the Cao couple.
After Ran Jiang left, she lay down on the bed after washing up briefly, glanced at her mobile phone, and at this time Aunt Liu made a few missed calls to her.
She dialed back, and an anxious voice came from there: "Xiaoqian, why didn't you tell me when you moved out?" ”
"Aunt Liu, don't worry, you didn't say goodbye to you when I moved."
"Are you safe in that neighborhood? Do you want me to come and cook for you tomorrow? Aunt Liu said a lot over there.
"Academy Famous Community." Cao Ai said lightly.
Aunt Liu was relieved when she heard that it was a famous scholar of the Academy, and the security of this community was famous for the safety of Sengkang City.
"Did Dong Cao promise you to move out?" Aunt Liu asked.
"Hmm."
After hanging up the phone, Cao Aiqian turned off the lights and went to sleep, she still had classes tomorrow.
