Chapter 375 Congratulations to Tuantuan for officially having his dream
Gu Nan dreamed of the orphanage again.
To be more precise, I dreamed about my childhood.
The orphanage she lives in is called Wangnan Charity Orphanage. It is the first and only private orphanage in Qingcheng. It was established two years earlier than the city government’s children’s welfare home.
The director was a well-educated and intellectual woman. She had just turned 30 when she decided to devote herself to the Salesian work. Gu Nan was abandoned at the gate in the second year after the establishment of the Salesian Home.
Before she was six years old, she didn't have her own real name, only a nickname, Tuantuan, that the director's mother gave her by drawing lots.
Naturally, she also has a little friend named Yuanyuan.
He was a boy with six fingers. He was adopted by a couple when he was two years old and did not grow up with her.
Gu Nan is one of the few healthy children in the orphanage who has no defects or diseases. The director said that many people want to adopt her, but she is unwilling to do so. She starts crying and making a fuss when a stranger holds her.
Gu Nan believed it at first, but later he wasn't so sure. Perhaps that was just because he was three years old, or perhaps it was one of the reasons.
Gu Nan didn't remember much from the time she was three to six years old. Some scattered fragments told her that there were other reasons that the director's mother didn't mention, such as the fact that she was a girl, that she was more intelligent than other children of the same age, and that she looked like an ungrateful person who would run away when wronged.
Couples who go to orphanages to adopt children are generally older and more sentimental. They don’t care whether the child is smart or has a bright future, but whether the child will stay with them obediently and provide enough emotional feedback.
It was obvious that Gu Nan was not clingy and had his own ideas, so he could not meet their needs.
When he was six years old, it was a turning point in Gu Nan’s life.
She had her own name. She could go to school. She had a lifelong goal.
She took her mother, the dean's surname, Gu, and named herself Gu Nan, taking the "Nan" from her mother's name, Gu Wangnan.
She put on her brand new schoolbag, took the ink-scented books from her teacher, and sat in the bright classroom, eagerly absorbing knowledge.
She has a dream, to become a great programmer when she grows up, and then make a lot of money——
This dream has to be realized thanks to the volunteer sisters from the Polytechnic Institute. Gu Nan learned from them that the world's first programmer was a woman, and that programmers of that era were special and made a lot of money.
Although the world has changed and the Internet industry has developed rapidly, Gu Nan's birth and background destined her to not catch up with the golden wave and become a programmer who is a millionaire per capita in the eyes of the volunteer sisters, but she is still very grateful to them.
Without them, she might not have been exposed to the programmer industry until after the college entrance examination, and by then she would have missed the long period of knowledge accumulation.
22-year-old Gu Nan graduated from school as an outstanding graduate and successfully got an offer from a large company. To a certain extent, it was they who made her life successful after the age of six.
And now, Gu Nan once again returned to the enlightenment classroom where he was determined to become a programmer.
The volunteer sister stood on the podium, smiled warmly, and called her up, asking, "Little Tuantuan, what is your dream?"
Gu Nan stood in the last row of the classroom and saw from a third-person perspective his younger self stand up and say loudly, "I want to be the most outstanding programmer in the world."
Her voice was tender and clear, and her tone was resolute, as if no difficulty in the world could defeat her.
The volunteer smiled happily, leading the other children to applaud her, and said excitedly, "Let's congratulate Tuantuan for officially having his dream."
Amidst warm applause, the young me became the focus of everyone's attention.
Her shoulders trembled twice, her ears turned red, but her thin back was straightened with pride.
She is not a fearless calf, but an ambitious tiger cub.
Gu Nan couldn't help but applaud, and a glimmer of nostalgia and gratitude slowly flowed in his eyes as he looked at himself.
How lucky I am to have met such a wonderful person at such a confused and ignorant age.
Gu Nan looked towards the top of the podium, but found that the volunteer sister's face, which had been clear just now, suddenly became blurred.
She tried to recall, but her memories were vague.
She wanted to go closer to take a look, but as soon as she raised her foot, her body suddenly fell down.
Gu Nan struggled and opened his eyes.
The intelligent robot sensed her breathing changes and mechanically said, "The guest is awake."
Then he said as he walked: "Today is February 4, xx, the beginning of spring. The time is 9:13 in the morning, the room temperature is 24 degrees, the indoor oxygen concentration is 21%, and the indoor air humidity is 40%, which is livable."
Finally, he stopped by the bed and asked Gu Nan: "How can I help you?"
The intelligent robot has a round head and a round brain, and speaks in a rigid mechanical voice, but its intelligence seems to be higher than the butler robot in Lin Jingchun's house.
Gu Nan had already woken up from the robot's series of data reports. He looked around and found the decoration exquisite and the details luxurious, but it looked unfamiliar. It seemed that he was still in Cui Shao's private residence.
There was a fracture fixator on her left hand, but the pain was not obvious. It must be because the doctor gave her painkillers and the effect of the medicine had not yet worn off.
She wanted to sit up, but her left hand was too weak. After trying twice, she simply lay down again.
With a "click", the door opened and Qi Yan rushed to the bedside first. "How do you feel, sister? Are you in pain? Are you hungry? I made some porridge. Would you like some?"
Qi Yan was holding a bowl of steaming vegetable and lean meat porridge in his hand. It must have just been served from the pot. He ran in a hurry and the porridge spilled out and scalded his fingers red.
"Would you like some water?" asked Cui Shao, who followed closely behind.
Chunyi said nothing and used hand gestures to remove the dust from Gu Nan.
The doctor was the last to come in. She pushed aside the group of men gathered around the bed, took out some gauze, tied up Gu Nan's left hand, and hung it around his neck, then gave him a few simple instructions.
He even closed the door when he left.
Gu Nan couldn't help but ask, "Have Jingchun and Jingzhe come out?"
Qi Yan's expression changed again, "They will be out soon. Sister, don't mention them. Let's have some porridge."
"Drink some water first." Cui Shao brought the cup to Gu Nan's lips.
Gu Nan raised his hand to take it, but he dodged for a moment.
Gu Nan looked up and saw Cui Shao looking at her steadily, as if conveying his determination to feed her water.
Qi Yan noticed his little action, and with a dark face, he snatched the cup of water from his hand and fed it to Gu Nan's lips.
Gu Nan didn't refuse and took two sips.
Qi Yan's expression eased a little, and he sat beside the bed to feed Gu Nan porridge.
Gu Nan had no appetite, so he drank two sips reluctantly and asked Chunyi, "Where is my sister?"
Yesterday, Gu Nan saw Jiang Wanying every time he entered and exited the operating room. Jiang Wanying was very worried about her. There was no reason for her not to come to see her after she woke up.
Chunyi didn't look at Gu Nan, but instead fixed her gaze on the bowl of porridge that Qi Yan was feeding her. She whispered, "She went out to play and will be back soon. Don't worry about her."
