However, Xia Chiu didn’t say a word. After eating the chicken legs quietly, he left with Yang Wei, leaving Shen Sui, Jiang Huai’an and Song Zhe together. The three boys were quite embarrassed. Shen Sui first stood up and said hello to leave. .
Song Zhe stopped Shen Sui: “You are a big boy, what do you do with the two girls every day?”
Shen Sui thought for a while, then asked, “You can control it?”
Song Zhe didn’t look good, and Shen Sui shrugged and turned to leave.
Jiang Huai’an had no expression on his face. After eating the last bite of the meal in silence, he stood up and put the plate in the clean area.
Song Zhe followed Jiang Huai An, obviously not very happy. Jiang Huai An patted him on the shoulder and said with him, “Don’t think too much, study hard.”
Song Zhe didn’t speak, and the two of them walked to the classroom together. After a long time, Song Zhe finally said, “Am I doing too much?”
Jiang Huai’an put his hands in his trouser pockets, his expression calm: “Do you remember fighting when you were young, you punched me, I think it’s nothing, I can beat you to cry if I punch you?”
Song Zhe answered, and probably understood what Jiang Huai’an meant. Jiang Huai’an raised his head and saw the two girls holding hands talking in the corridor, with a calm expression: “Everyone has different tolerance to pain. Your drop of water is her pouring rain.”
Speaking of this, Song Zhe naturally knew what Jiang Huai’an meant. He thought for a while, but said: “Then what do you do?”
“I?”
“Xia Chiu Chiu is having trouble with you now, right?”
Song Zhe looked up at him: “Are you making trouble like this?”
Jiang Huai An thought for a while, but said, “I have to solve the problem, right?”
Song Zhe was a little surprised, but Jiang Huai An didn’t say much.
After the two separated, Jianghuai An called Jiang Lan, briefly talked about Gu Lan’s situation, and concluded: “I want to help her, but she has too much self-esteem and will not accept my help. Aunt, do you have a suitable position for her mother to arrange?”
Jiang Lan thought for a while, and said with him: “You might as well call your second uncle. The company under your name will be temporarily managed by him. Now it is hiring people, he should make better arrangements.”
Jiang Huai’an nodded, then called Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan promised, and then said: “Huai’an, come to the company when you have time. After all, this is an industry under your name, and I will help you take care of it. , You still have to come and see.”
“Okay,” Jiang Huai’an said calmly, “Thank you, Uncle, I will find time to come over.”
After speaking, the two chatted casually for a while, and Jiang Huai’an sorted out the information on Gu Lan to Jiang Yan, and did not take care of it anymore.
Later in the day, Xia Chiu-cho didn’t talk to Jiang Huai An much, and Jiang Huai An did not take the initiative to look for her. Gu Lan went to school regularly every day, and really never touched the paintbrush again. She gradually improved her mood, and occasionally chatted with Xia Chuo, but she didn’t say a few words.
Jiang Huai An kept his good morning and good night greetings every day, and Xia Chiu-cho also faintly replied without saying much. She didn’t know how to face Jianghuai An, if it was the same as before, it seemed to Gu Lan it was a kind of betrayal.
The online update has been insisting on continuing, and Xia Chiu-chuo occasionally said that she was unhappy on Weibo. After every time she said it, an ID called “The King asked me to patrol the mountain” immediately appeared to comfort her at the first time.
One day, the “big king asked me to patrol the mountain” suddenly said that the recent style of painting seems to be very different from before.
Xia Chiu Chiu told the truth and replied that another author Z stopped drawing recently because of academic and family problems.
Weibo immediately exploded, and when Xia Chiu-chuo went online the next day, he discovered that the great king had come to patrol the mountain and organized it all to send a message to summon Z to come back.
Everyone brushed the same sentence in rows—Z fans are here, the original intention is not dead.
It doesn’t feel much to read this sentence alone, but when everyone was hanging the sentence together, there was an unspeakable emotion rippling in Xia Chiu’s heart.
Then this “big king called me to patrol the mountain” took the lead and began to give rewards to the comics. In less than a day, Xia Chiu-chuo received nearly 50,000 rewards.
When I got up the next day, Xia Chiu-chuu hurried to the school. The first sentence after entering the door was to say with Gu Lan: “Do you have a bank card, and I will pay you a payment?”
“What are you paying me for?”
Gu Lan was stunned. Xia Chiu-chuo took out his mobile phone, opened his account, logged in to the background, and showed Gu Lan the benefits.
“The money is not for me,” Xia Chiu said with Gu Lan, pointing to the mobile phone: “The money is for you. It is for you to get back. You earn it back with your own pen.”
With that, Xia Chiu raised her head and looked at her seriously: “Look, so many people are waiting for you to come back.”
Gu Lan didn’t speak, she quietly looked at Xia Chiu’s phone screen, her face was calm and she couldn’t see the happiness or anger.
Xia Chiu Chiu was a little puzzled, and looked at her and said, “What are you hesitating? You are afraid that you are not good enough to make money. Now someone will give you an answer. You feel that the family can’t bear this burden, and now there is financial support. Gu Lan, you like painting so much, what else are you afraid of?”
“Your mother doesn’t like it, then you paint quietly and avoid painting. You…”
“I feel tired.”
Gu Lan suddenly spoke, smiled and said, “It’s good now. I don’t need to hide, study hard and don’t want to think about anything. I think my mother is right. In fact, stability has its own little luck.”
Gu Lan lowered her head and turned to the exercise: “Very good.”
Xia Chiu Chiu wanted to say something else, the class bell rang at the right time. Xia Chiu’s words were forced to hold back.
When he had enough time to think, Xia Chiu-chuo understood that he couldn’t push too hard. If Gu Lan does not come back, she naturally has her own reason, and she can’t force Gu Lan.
So Xia Chiu Chiu remained silent, suffocating a sigh, and did a day’s questions.
In the afternoon, Shen Suilai picked her up and went back together. Today is the time for him to make up lessons for her. Shen Suilai simply waited for Xia Zhuo.
Not long after Shen Sui waited at the door, he saw Jiang Huai An parked in front of the corridor. Jiang Huai looked at him quietly for a while, his eyes full of undisguised hostility.
Shen Sui raised his head to look at him. After a daze, he nodded and said hello.
Xia Chiu Chiu came out of the classroom, and Shen Sui went to pick up Xia Chiu’s schoolbag.
He has always been a gentleman accustomed to, and at first Xia Chiu Chiu would insist, but later he was casual in order to not bother to speak. After handing her schoolbag, she realized that Jiang Huai An was not far away. She was stunned when she saw Jiang Huai An. After Jiang Huai An was silent for a while, she slightly raised a smile and nodded towards her. Turn around and leave.
Xia Chiu Chiu was stunned by this smile. For a long time, he turned his head and asked Shen Sui: “How do I think his smile just now has no meaning?”
Shen Sui knew it in his heart, but didn’t call the name, just said: “Don’t you smile pretty well?”
“These are two different things.”
Xia Chiu frowned, seriously thinking about Jiang Huai’an’s smile, and Shen Sui glanced at her lightly: “Is it painting or attending class tonight?”
Xia Chiu-chuo was attracted by his question, looked up at him, and opened his mouth: “Let’s talk about the topic. I have to update it recently. There is a lot less learning time.”
Shen Sui nodded, and Xia Chiu-cho told him about the daytime with some distress. Shen Suijing listened quietly, and after a while, slowly said, “In fact, Gu Lan is not incomprehensible.”
“There are too many things in her house, so be quiet and not so tired in my heart.”
“Sometimes people are actually easy to succumb. Don’t think too much about what others say and what you do, and you’ll find that the world becomes very simple. There is a blank in your mind, and the world is all instructions. You just have to follow the rules. You are gone safely and there will be no scolding or dissatisfaction. Even if you fail, everyone will only say that it is enough for you to work hard.”
Shen Sui said, with a mockery on his lips: “Follow their arrow. No matter whether you are doing well or not, they will praise you. If you don’t follow this arrow, all your efforts will not be hard work.”
“So sometimes, people want to be happy and dream of this kind of thing, it’s better not to have it.”
Xia Chiu listened quietly, and she intuitively felt that Shen Sui was not talking about Gu Lan.
She looked up at him and saw the young boy’s side face by the window of the car. The lights were shining and extinguished.
Winter nights always come very early.
Xia Chuchu looked at him and asked him for the first time: “What about you?”
“I?”
Shen Sui turned his head with some doubts, and Xia Chiu said, “Is it your own way or someone else’s?”
Shen Sui was a little surprised. He never thought that Xia Chiu-tzu would suddenly ask him this. Xia Chuchu stared at him, remembering that Shen Sui who seemed to have never been happy in his previous life.
She once felt that the pain Shen Sui showed in front of her was a scheming, she wanted to win her sympathy and get more resources. But at this moment, looking at the clean Shen Sui when she was a teenager, she suddenly thought, Shen Sui probably, it was not like that.
His pain may also be real.
So she told him: “Shen Sui, happiness and not being sad are two things. Happiness comes from the heart, a kind of full joy; happiness is temporary and superficial joy; not being sad, just not going. Against the peace of this world.”
“Not being sad never equals happiness, Shen Sui, don’t live yourself as a person who is not sad. There are ups and downs in life, but you have to get up once.”
