Grew up in an orphanage, with average looks, and worked tirelessly for 30 years, accumulating six million in savings. Just as she finally achieved financial freedom without spending a dime, Su Yan ...
"Alright."
Seeing that the kid had helped his sister, Su Yu decided to give him a friendly welcome.
After thinking for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what kind of business he's in?"
Su Yan shook her head. "I really don't know what kind of business he does, but I heard Sister Xiaorou say before that half of the power in Yangcheng belongs to Sixth Master. Anyway... he's pretty awesome."
Su Yu: "..."
He knew that Sixth Master was not a simple man, but he never expected him to be this extraordinary.
What kind of place is Guangzhou? It's a place with a level of power that you could practically do whatever you want.
"You silly girl, how come you always manage to bump into important people no matter how casually you touch them?" He said with a hint of helplessness.
His sister is so lucky.
Su Yan felt helpless too!
She just wants to make money quietly, she doesn't want to become rich overnight!
Who wouldn't want a windfall? But even if this windfall did fall from the sky, she wouldn't dare to take a bite.
She shrugged, "Anyway, I won't have any contact with him in the future. With someone of his status, it's better to be on good terms than to become enemies!"
Su Yu remained silent.
That's true, we won't have any contact in the future.
He also didn't want his sister to get involved in Sixth Master's mess.
The brother and sister waited outside the door for about ten minutes before opening the door and coming in.
The bed provided by the community was placed in the living room. Sixth Master had just hung up the phone and put down his mobile phone when the two of them came in.
Seeing this, Su Yan said, "Sixth Master, aren't you finished talking yet?"
Sixth Master said calmly, "We just finished talking. Wu Feifan knows I'm still alive, so I've asked him to make arrangements for what's to come."
Su Yan nodded, then took out a roll of money from her pocket. "Here's three hundred yuan. That should be enough for you to get back, right?"
A train ticket from Lanzhou to Guangzhou costs less than 50 yuan for a soft sleeper, and the remaining money is more than enough to eat and drink to your heart's content.
She's not a super-rich woman who spends thousands or tens of thousands of dollars at a time; she's far from being that kind of extravagant.
Sixth Master wanted to say no, his wallet was still there, but he needed to go to the bank to withdraw money.
On second thought, maybe Third Master has already had someone watching his bank account, and once he withdraws money, his whereabouts will be exposed.
In the end, he accepted Su Yan's money, saying, "Thank you, I'll pay you back later."
Su Yan didn't refuse, but she didn't take it to heart either.
"I'll go buy you some food in a bit. I'll come over tomorrow to change your dressing, and then again the day after tomorrow morning. I'll also prepare the dressings you need to change every ten days. You'll have to do it yourself; it's very simple."
Sixth Master didn't start out with such power; he climbed up from the bottom, risking his life, and had endured all kinds of injuries. He was already very familiar with things like changing dressings.
But when he heard Su Yan's careful instructions, he didn't interrupt. He even had a strange feeling, a warm and swollen feeling in his chest, as if it were filled with something. This was an emotion he had never felt before, very unfamiliar, but he didn't resist it.
After she finished speaking, he responded softly, his voice gentle, "I understand, thank you."
Su Yu chimed in, "What's your name? You can't expect my sister and me to keep calling you Sixth Master, can you? It'll make us look like your underlings."
Su Yan also looked at Sixth Master with some curiosity.
Sixth Master paused for a few seconds, then said, "He Xiuyun."
He Xiuyun?
His name and his appearance are quite a good match, Su Yan thought to herself.
"Alright, Ayan, go buy some food and come back. I'll go fix the toilet." Su Yu interrupted her thoughts.
Su Yan said, "Okay, I'll go then."
After she left, Su Yu looked at He Xiujun and said, "You can rest by yourself. I'll go and take care of the toilet."
He Xiuyun was only surprised for a moment by Su Yu's change in attitude before regaining her composure. "This is troublesome."
The toilet is provided by the community and doesn't require much special treatment; you just need to connect a faucet to the water pipe. There are also electrical issues to consider.
After deciding what he wanted to buy, Su Yu went out for a while.
When I came back, I was carrying a bunch of things, and without saying a word, I went into the bathroom to take care of them.
Su Yan returned from buying delicious food while he was still in the toilet.
He Xiuyun, who had been resting with her eyes closed, slowly opened them.
The moment Su Yan looked away, she was caught off guard and met his unfathomable eyes.
She paused for a moment, then walked over and placed the food she was carrying beside the bed, saying, "I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I just bought some random things."
He Xiuyun glanced at the things she had bought.
Rice noodle soup, porridge, and various kinds of steamed buns are all very light and refreshing.
āIām not a picky eater,ā he said.
Su Yan breathed a sigh of relief. "Then you eat. I'll go help my brother."
Just as she finished speaking, Su Yu's voice came from behind her, "I'm all set. I've bought the bucket and the kettle. If you want to wash yourself, just boil some hot water. All your personal supplies are in the bathroom. You should know the most basic common sense, right?"
He Xiuyun: "..."
He glanced at Su Yu but didn't say anything.
Su Yu chuckled, "Just kidding, don't take it seriously. If you're not busy, I'll head back with my sister. It's getting late, and our families are waiting for us."
Su Yan left the state-run restaurant at 1:30 a.m., and now, after all this commotion, it's almost 7 p.m. The sky is already dark, and a light drizzle is blowing against the window with the wind.
"You should go back," He Xiuyun said.
The brother and sister didn't linger, since if they went back too late, Li Juan would start asking them all sorts of questions.
For some reason, when Su Yan turned around, the man on the bed couldn't help but turn his head, his dark eyes staring straight at her delicate back until the door was closed, and a complex emotion gradually surfaced in his eyes.
He touched his chest and felt his heart beating fast; he had just felt a strong sense of reluctance again.
He Xiuyun is very smart.
He keenly sensed the difference in his feelings for Su Yan.
Whenever I see her, I always feel a strange emotion.
He always thought he was only slightly interested in Su Yan.
While Su Yan was on the stove, he was resting with his eyes closed next door, but he couldn't fall asleep. He heard Su Yan talking to her friend and thought that this young girl was quite clever and shrewd despite her young age.
Now he's sure.
He fell in love with the little girl.
However, when she was in Guangzhou, the girl mentioned that she had a boyfriend, who was a soldier.
Her partner was a soldier who was upright and honest.
He was a rat in the gutter, someone who couldn't see the light of day.
Without even guessing, He Xiuyun knew which one Su Yan would choose.
Or rather, a normal girl would choose the former; no one likes someone who can't be seen in the light.
Therefore, it's enough for him to know about his feelings.
There's no need to say it; it would only add to someone else's burden.
A feeling of resentment and bitterness welled up in my heart, but I had to suppress it.
He Xiuyun raised the corners of her lips slightly and gave a self-deprecating smile, "It's because I'm not worthy. I appeared too late. Even God is playing tricks on me."
