8 Chapter VIII
Fortunately, she reacted in time, and after letting out a childish exclamation, she hurriedly stopped.
"Yikes!"
It's so dangerous, but fortunately I didn't hit it.
She looked up at the tall, black figure in front of her.
It was a man with his back to her, tall and thin, half a head taller than her father.
Hearing her exclamation, the man slowly turned around and looked down at the little girl who was only up to his waist.
Shen Xingran raised his head, and his eyes collided in the air.
The man's face was expressionless, and his brow furrowed.
The little girl's face was surprised and dazed.
Neither of them spoke, and the scene was so quiet that you could hear the chirping of insects in the grass.
The secretary standing next to him subconsciously took a step forward, wanting to say something to liven up the atmosphere.
But before he could think of a suitable opening line, the little girl reacted first.
The corners of her mouth lifted high, revealing a big smile, and shouted crisply.
"Grandpa!"
The cry was crunchy and sweet, as refreshing as an iced watermelon on a hot June day.
The secretary was stunned, and looked at Shen Xingran incredulously.
This little girl is quite clever, she can recognize Mr. Shen at a glance?
Mr. Shen also seemed to be a little surprised.
"You know me?"
"Of course I do!"
Shen Xingran was confident, "I saw my grandfather's photo!" β
After telling the fairy tale of the princess on the plane, Shen Lingyi found a photo of the Shen family on the Internet and showed it to Shen Xingran in advance.
Shen Xingran has a good memory, and he recognized the tall and taciturn man in front of him at a glance, who is the grandfather in the photo!
She was delighted: "Grandpa! I thought you were gone! It's so nice to see you when you're still at home! β
In fact, Lao Shen is always really gone.
It was only halfway through that he suddenly realized that he had not taken a key document, and he "had to" turn back to get it.
The secretary complained silently in his heart.
As for why Mr. Shen, who has an excellent memory, forgot to bring key documents this time, he didn't dare to ask more anyway.
In order to come back and get the documents, even the departure time of the plane had to be postponed by half an hour.
But this trip back is worth it, and you can meet the legendary little lady Shen Xingran in the garden.
The little lady is really soft and cute!
Faced with such a cute little girl, the secretary only felt that his heart was about to melt.
His eyes drifted to Mr. Shen, but he found that Mr. Shen was still frowning, looking unhappy.
The secretary started to get nervous.
He silently shouted in his heart - please, Mr. Shen, this is your own granddaughter! Don't look at someone like you like a child, it will scare her!
Imagining the little girl being overwhelmed by the indifference, the secretary felt that her heart was already starting to throb.
A fine sweat broke out on his forehead, nervously pondering how to break the awkward situation.
Shen Xingran was actually not as fragile as the secretary thought.
Looking at the expressionless old Mr. Shen, the smile on her face was still bright.
It's not that the little girl has a big heart, but Shen Lingyi has already instructed her.
"Your grandfather...... Well, a little congenital crippled and won't laugh. So if he is fierce in the face of you, it is because he is a disabled person who can't laugh, don't worry too much about him. β
Shen Xingran felt sorry for his grandfather at that time.
How can there be such a terrible disability in the world!
The teacher said that everyone should care for the disabled!
Seeing that the corners of Lao Shen's mouth were flat, and there was no smile on his face, Shen Xingran felt that his responsibility was very heavy.
Caring for the disabled grandfather, the stars are responsible!
What's more-
She looked down and saw that Mr. Shen was holding a rabbit doll in his hand.
Yes! It's her bunny doll!
was actually picked up by my grandfather.
Now she doesn't have to look for it anymore.
Shen Xingran smiled even more happily, and said sweetly: "It's good to have a grandfather!" Thank you grandpa! β
As she spoke, she reached out and wanted her grandfather to return the rabbit doll to her.
But Mr. Shen seemed to have misunderstood what she meant.
Seeing her outstretched little hand, he subconsciously pulled out his trouser pocket, took out his wallet, and opened it with a frown-
It's like those juniors who are facing the New Year's Eve and want to press the New Year's money.
Every outstretched hand must be sent with money.
It's justβ
This will be far from the Chinese New Year, and Mr. Shen's wallet is empty, and he doesn't even have a bank card, let alone cash.
Mr. Shen: "......"
"Grandpa?"
Seeing that Mr. Shen was holding his wallet in a daze, Shen Xingran, who was a little dazed, couldn't help but scream again.
The little girl's voice was soft and sweet, with a hint of confusion.
Mr. Shen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he finally made up his mind, took out a piece of paper from the mezzanine of his wallet, and then took out a pen from his suit pocket, and wrote his name on the paper.
Then, he stuffed the piece of paper into Shen Xingran's hand expressionlessly, and his tone was as cold as minus thirty degrees Celsius: "Tsk, take it." β
Shen Xingran pinched the blank paper and was completely dazed.
What does that mean?
This is not enough, Mr. Shen's tone was cold, and he sneered in a low voice: "In the end, it is a child who has never seen the world, and when you meet, you will reach out and ask for-"
"Ahem, ahem!"
Before he could finish speaking, the secretary next to him let out an earth-shattering cough in time, interrupting his output.
Mr. Shen raised his eyes to look at the secretary dissatisfied.
The secretary had the courage to look at him, and pleaded silently with his eyes - "Be careful, Mr. Shen!" β
This is your own granddaughter!
Mr. Shen's eyes were cold, and he was disdainful in his heart.
What about my granddaughter? How about calling him grandpa the first time we met? What about being cute?
As soon as he came, he reached out and asked for money, which is definitely not a good boy!
When the eyes of the first general secretary were communicating fiercely, Shen Xingran's weak voice sounded.
"That...... Grandpa, I actually wanted you to give me my rabbit doll. β
She pinched the piece of paper a little helplessly, and very carefully pointed to the doll that Mr. Shen was holding in her hand.
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Old Mr. Shen's gaze stiffened.
In line with the concept of "caring for the disabled grandfather", Shen Xingran didn't say much, he simply stretched out his hand and gently pulled the rabbit doll out of the old Mr. Shen's hand.
Then she thought about it, and carefully stuffed the white paper that Mr. Shen gave her back into his hand just now.
This time, Shen Xingran was satisfied.
She thanked her again vividly: "Thank you grandpa for helping me find my little rabbit!" I'm so happy! β
Mr. Shen's expression was still stiff.
"Poof!"
This was the snickering of the secretary who was watching the whole process.
has followed Mr. Shen for so many years, and this is the first time he has seen Mr. Shen with such a speechless expression.
Ahhh
After Shen Xingran thanked him, he saw that Mr. Shen was still indifferent, and he couldn't help but add a trace of sympathy for his grandfather in his heart.
It's really pitiful not to laugh at this disability!
She remembered that the housekeeper had said that Mr. Shen was still in trouble, and waved goodbye obediently.
"Grandpa, I know you're busy, so I'll go first, Grandpa is busy with your business! Goodbye grandpa! Don't forget to rest early! β
After saying that, the little girl was satisfied, and jumped up and down to turn and leave.
Mr. Shen suddenly spoke: "Slow." β
Shen Xingran looked back at him: "Huh? Grandfather? What's wrong? β
Old Mr. Shen bent down and stuffed the white piece of paper in his hand back into Shen Xingran's hand.
"What I sent out Shen Shenwen, there is no reason to take it back."
After a proud pause, Mr. Shen said, "Take it, it's a red envelope for the meeting." β
After saying this, he didn't stay any longer, and simply turned around and left.
When passing by the secretary's side, Mr. Shen muttered in a low voice: "Hmph...... Clever words, clever words! β
His voice was so small that only the secretary could hear it clearly.
As if he was deliberately trying to explain to the secretary why he had to dye Shen Xing a red envelope.
It's not that he's too soft-hearted, it's that the other party is too cute!
The secretary didn't squint, and tried to hold back a smile: "......"
No need to explain, he understands, he understands.
He nodded at Shen Xingran, and his voice was gentle: "Little Miss, Mr. Shen has to go, otherwise he really won't be able to catch the plane." Go back and rest, Mr. Shen will come back in a long time. β
Shen Xingran clenched the white piece of paper that Mr. Shen stuffed to her, and nodded repeatedly: "Mm-hmm, goodbye grandfather!" I'll wait for you at home! β
Mr. Shen, who strode away, paused, and then walked faster.
In the eyes of the secretary, there is a feeling of running away.
The secretary held back a smile and hurried to follow.
For some reason, it was obviously a very happy scene, but he inexplicably felt some hot eyes.
The huge Shen Garden has been deserted for too long......
This seems to be the first time in the past few years that someone has said goodbye here, and said that they will wait for Mr. Shen to come back.
The secretary wiped the corners of his eyes.
That's great.
-
When Mr. Shen and his secretary disappeared at the door, Shen Xingran lowered his head and looked at the piece of paper in his hand curiously.
Grandpa said this is - a red envelope for meeting?
But red envelopes and red envelopes, shouldn't they be red?
Why is it a small piece of paper?
Shen Xingran was confused.
Just as she was pondering, Shen Lingyi's voice came from behind her.
"Stars? How do you stand alone in the garden? β
It seems that Mom is finally done with her and wants to get up to look for her.
Shen Xingran turned his head and looked at his mother with a smile: "Mom! I'm not alone, my grandfather was here just now! Grandpa just left! β
She raised her hand, raised the small piece of paper in her hand, and her voice was excited, "Grandpa also gave me a white red envelope for the meeting!" β
Shen Lingyi was slightly stunned.
A white red envelope? What is this adjective?
Shen Xingran told his mother about the process of meeting his grandfather.
Her little face was rare and very serious: "Mom is right, grandpa really can't laugh." Grandpa is really pitiful, obviously he is such a good person, and he will give me a red envelope for the meeting! β
Although the color of this piece of paper is obviously white, my grandfather said that it was a red envelope, so it must be a red envelope!
Shen Lingyi looked at the thin white paper in Shen Xingran's hand, and couldn't laugh or cry.
is worthy of her hard-mouthed and soft-hearted old father, who avoids it on the surface, but actually gives this kind of thing to her granddaughter as soon as they meet.
She took the piece of paper, thought about it, folded it up, and put it on the back of the rabbit dollβthe rabbit doll carried a small satchel in the shape of a carrot, just enough to fit the thin piece of paper.
"Well, since this is a gift from your grandfather, then let's ask the little rabbit to keep it, okay?"
This was her grandfather's first gift to her, and it was perfect for keeping it with her beloved bunny.
Shen Xingran nodded: "Okay, okay...... Ahh
Although he had already slept on the plane, after playing for so long, Shen Xingran was still sleepy and couldn't help but yawn.
Shen Lingyi took her hand: "The room is all cleaned up, and the hot bath water is also put away, let's go, mom will take you to sleep." β
The mother and daughter held hands and walked upstairs together.
-
In the night, a black sedan slowly stopped outside Shen Yuan.
A man came out of the back seat and leaned against the car door, silently looking in the direction of Shen Yuan.
The night breeze was gentle, blowing the hem of his clothes.
"Lao Yun - what's the matter with you? Halfway through the drinking party, you said you would run? β
A wobbly figure got out of the other side of the car, and let out a loud burp as he spoke.
This one was obviously a little drunk, a younger man.
He looked around in a daze, and when he saw Shen Yuan's small building, he shook his head again and again.
"You're here again? Why, you really can't forget her? At the cocktail party, the daughter of the Wang family, her eyes were almost glued to you, but you didn't care about others at all. Lao Yun, didn't I say you, are you addicted to the title of the first diamond king in Fengcheng? Are you going to live this life alone? β
Yun Ting ignored the young man's drunken questioning.
He looked at the familiar corner.
After seven years, the silent room finally lit up with a warm yellow light again.
The light was reflected in his black pupils, causing ripples.
The young man didn't notice the abnormality, and was still saying to himself: "It's useless if you can't forget her, she has disappeared for so many years, no one knows where she went, maybe her children will play soy sauce!" Old Yun, you-Hiccup, you're still dead! β
Yun Ting finally gave him a little look, and replied gently but firmly, "She's back." β
"It's better to die earlyβ"
The young man was stunned for a moment and straightened up, "What did you say?" Who's back? β
Yun Ting looked again at the room where the lights were on.
In Shen Yuan, except for her, no one was qualified to live in that room anymore.
He repeated again: "She's back." β
He waited for seven whole years, and finally waited for her to come back.
The young man paused for a few seconds before bursting out laughing.
"Hahahaha, Lao Yun, are you stunned, what nonsense are you talking about?!"
Yun Ting didn't argue with the young man.
He turned, his expression calm and flat.
The Yun Clan's ruler, who was feared in the business world of Fengcheng, returned to his throne.
One glance is enough.
It's a long time coming.
"Let's go, it's time to go home."
Yun Ting nodded at the young man and got into the car first.
Stimulated by these words, the young man's wine sobered up for the most part.
He looked at the clouds in the car, and then at the quiet Shen Garden in the night.
Yun Ting wouldn't joke about this kind of thing, so Shen Yuan, who had been missing in the circle of wealthy families in Fengcheng for seven years, really came back?!
Thinking of this, the young man shuddered, and the little bit of alcohol left quickly dissipated without a trace.
He sighed under his breath as he got into the car.
"The sky of Fengcheng may be about to change......"
