In the communication room, Xinglan was immersed in painting as usual. It was already late at night. Cai Nan was sitting on the sofa and fiddling with a Rubik's cube. These few days, besides looking for a job during the day, Jinghan would set up a stall at night. Xinglan had advised her a few times, but it did not have much effect. All Xinglan could do was put more energy into his work every day. He was like an ant that did not know fatigue. Even if he put in more effort than his age and put in more effort than his body's limits, he still needed to use a magnifying glass to find the harvest.
"Sigh, I think your wife can set up a stall there. It's much better than us working.”
Sitting on the sofa, Cai Nan's words seemed inhumane to Xing Lan.
"You make it sound so easy, but is that the truth? Do you know what kind of psychological struggle she had to go through to put down her pride?”
Xing Lan rolled his eyes at him.
"That's right. That's why I admire your wife. My wife will say that she's tired if she stands for a while, let alone set up a stall.”
Cai Nan said with a face full of anger. It was obvious that he was not very satisfied with his wife.
Xing Lan did not say anything about this. He had always believed that his things would always be the best.
"That's why you have to hurry up. Here, let's see if this bro will take care of you.”
As Cai Nan spoke, she took out a small bottle from her pocket and placed it in front of Xing Lan.
Xing Lan picked it up and looked at it in confusion. On it were the words 'Little Lover' and a lot of English. Xing Lan immediately knew what it was.
"How is it? I've used this brand before. As long as you let her drink some wine first, she won't notice. I specially went to the health supplement store today to look for it.”
Xing Lan had been looking at Cai Nan without saying a word. Cai Nan stared at Xing Lan as he finished his sentence, his face filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Xing Lan immediately picked up the disposable cup beside him and poured all the red medicinal powder in it. Xing Lan did not say a word.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? I spent a lot of effort to find this.”
Cai Nan snatched the bottle from Xing Lan's hand. When he confirmed that there was nothing left in the bottle, he had a regretful expression.
"Here, drink it. Don't waste it.”
Xing Lan passed the cup to Cai Nan.
"Boss, do you want to kill me? We're the only two men here.”
Cai Nan took the cup and told Xing Lan about something.
"If you speak again, I'll pour it all into your mouth.”
Xing Lan threatened.
"Okay, okay, I know I was wrong. Oh right, there are many fish in the fish pond in the courtyard. I'll give them to them.”
As Cai Nan spoke, she ran to the fish pond with a sinister smile.
Seeing Cai Nan leave the Star Basket, he laughed. He didn't expect Cai Nan to come up with such a bad idea.
"Haha, when the boss comes tomorrow, he will definitely find that these fish will become very active.”
Cai Nan rubbed his hands as he walked into the room. The sinister smile on his face made Xing Lan want to give him a good beating.
"These fish must have done something unforgivable in their previous lives. In this life, they met a fiend like you.”
At this moment, Xing Lan only felt sad for those fish.
"Haha, alright, I'm going up. If you're tired, you should rest more.”
Perhaps it was because she could tell that Xing Lan was really tired these few days, Cai Nan's words were very sincere.
"Get lost."
Xing Lan's gaze returned to his work.
When the sky was about to brighten, Xing Lan fell asleep. He was really tired these few days, so much so that when Peng Liang woke him up, it was already almost eight o'clock. Xing Lan went straight home, washed up, and boarded the bus. Liu Nan and Zhihui called him, and Liu Nan told Xing Lan that they had just arrived in Beijing. Xiao Yao had something to give him, and Xing Lan needed to meet them. Xing Lan arranged for them to meet at a place far away from here. Xing Lan did not want any friends to know them.
It was already 11 AM when the three of them met. Xing Lan saw Liu Nan and Liu Nan at the top floor of a western restaurant. The restaurant was elegantly decorated. Xing Lan looked at the dense crowd below through the thick glass. The red wine in the goblet swayed gently with his hand. There were many flowers carefully placed in the middle of the table. White lilies of the valley symbolized happiness, and pink roses symbolized elegance and self-restraint. Although the exquisite dishes were appetizing, Xing Lan did not have any appetite. Xing Lan only looked at the crowd below. He wanted to find Jing Han's figure, wanted to know if Jing Han had eaten and what she had eaten. Thinking about how Jing Han was eating fried pancakes or noodles again, Xing Lan felt that the exquisite dishes in front of him were like sharp knives, stabbing into his heart.
It was unknown if the restaurant owner was brainless or for some other reason, but the music system throughout the restaurant was playing the song " Never have a dream come."
Although the melody of this song was beautiful, Xing Lan did not like it very much because its name was " Dreams Never Come True," just like the current Xing Lan.
"Sister Mu Qing is so good to you. She urged us to come to Beijing to give you this.”
Zhihui teased as he passed a beautifully wrapped box to Xing Lan.
"But Beijing is not bad. We can stay here for two days.”
Liu Nan looked at the crowd below with a satisfied expression.
"Then stay for two more days. There are indeed interesting places in Beijing.”
Xing Lan put down the wine glass and went to unwrap the box. Because he knew that the base prioritized orphans, Xing Lan did not ask about Liu Nan and Liu Nan's background. Xing Lan also knew that the little demon's box contained money. The reason why it was wrapped like this was to not let Xing Lan lose face. However, Xing Lan did not have any qualms. Right now, he felt that he had lost all face.
When the box was opened, there was an envelope inside. It was very thick. Liu Nan and the other two had been watching Xing Lan's actions. They were probably very concerned about Little Yao's gift.
"It's money."
Looking at Liu Nan and Zhihui's puzzled faces, Xing Lan did not hide anything and directly opened the envelope.
Xing Lan took out 1,000 yuan. He had a plan. The rent, internet, and Jing Han. Little Yao had also left a note with only one sentence.
"Call me if it's not enough."
Xing Lan only took a glance before throwing it to the side and throwing the rest of the money to Liu Nan.
"Sister Mu Qing said that she had to give it all to you.”
Liu Nan passed the envelope to Xing Lan, but Xing Lan did not take it.
"Take it. You need money to come to Beijing.”
Xing Lan smiled as he drank a mouthful of bitter wine.
"We have money. Xinglan, we can be considered friends. Uncle Wang has a very good relationship with us, so I hope that we can become friends.”
Zhihui, who was at the side, spoke in a submissive manner. Xing Lan knew that Zhihui must have gone through some kind of training and might have noticed the faint caution in his eyes.
"Sorry, I hope you can forgive me. I just can't accept it for a while. It'll be fine after a while. Don't worry about it.”
Xing Lan did not hide anything. He knew that his concealment would not have any effect and would even make Zhi Hui and the other two feel hostility towards him.
"Yes, we will become friends. Xinglan, you should keep this money. Otherwise, Sister Mu Qing will blame us.”
Liu Nan insisted on letting Xing Lan accept it.
"Then you can say that I'll accept it."
Xing Lan's words were very relieved.
"How can we do that? Who do you think we are? Absolutely not.”
In the end, Xing Lan did not accept the money. He only asked for 1,000. 1,000. He might not even be able to afford a bottle of wine in the restaurant, but Xing Lan needed it. Thus, at that time, Xing Lan felt that he was very humble.
It was already very late when they returned to their own residence. After Yu Xuan confirmed that Xing Lan had returned, he came home and stayed for a long time. Because his thoughts were in a mess, Xing Lan did not listen to what Yu Xuan said. Xing Lan gave Jing Han a call and Jing Han told Xing Lan that she was almost home. After hanging up, Yu Xuan suddenly said that he was very tired and wanted to go back. Xing Lan did not ask him to stay, he needed to complete his work as soon as possible.
"Clang."
The door opened at a certain moment, and Jinghan walked in with an unhappy expression.
"What's wrong? You haven't found it yet."
Looking at Jing Han, Xing Lan immediately stood up. Jing Han sat by the bed.
"Yeah, I don't know what to do."
Jing Han fiddled with her nails and pouted with an aggrieved expression.
"Take your time. There's no hurry.”
Xing Lan handed Jing Han a glass of water as he spoke, while Jing Han began to search for a job online.
"If you really can't do it, go back. I'll take care of you when we get home.”
After peeling a banana for Jing Han, Xing Lan probed Jing Han.
"I'm not going back. It's not fun at home."
Taking the banana, Jinghan took a bite out of boredom.
However, Xing Lan became silent. Xing Lan had already confirmed that Jing Han would not return home.
"Oh right, don't eat or drink anything that others hand you in the future, do you hear me?”
Turning around to pour himself a glass of water, Xing Lan thought of Cai Nan.
"Why?"
Jing Han asked.
"Why? For you. Look at how many people are in trouble now…”
Xing Lan introduced many examples to Jing Han.
"I know, I can't just refuse to eat whatever you give me, right?(*^__^*) Heehee…”
Jing Han took a bite of the banana and gave Xing Lan a cute smile.
At that moment, Xinglan suddenly felt very blissful. Happiness came from the two of them in the cold room. Happiness came from a cute smile. Happiness came from ordinary words and trust. At this moment, Jinghan, who was in the room, had a cute smile on her face and used an ordinary sentence to express her trust in Xinglan. She made Xinglan feel very blissful.
