Chapter 94
Walking up the mountain along the tarmac road, Chen Lanjun had only taken a few steps when she suddenly heard someone calling her name.
When I looked up, I saw Shao Qinghe holding a bouquet of purple flowers in one hand, leaning against the gable covered with green vines, and I don't know how long he had been waiting.
He was already tall and straight, and with a pair of sunglasses and a bouquet of flowers in his hand, he looked particularly eye-catching.
A middle-aged woman who was hiking nearby couldn't help but look back and said to her companion, "That handsome guy looks a little familiar."
"Isn't she a movie star?"
"Celebrities dating——"
The sound stretched out and went around the bend in a bustling manner.
Chen Lanjun quickly stepped forward to take the purple bouquet, and hurriedly took Shao Qinghe's hand to the other side of the mountain path where there were fewer people.
I almost forgot that this young master used to appear frequently in Hong Kong newspapers and magazines. If you really look at him a few more times, you might recognize him as the young master of the Shao family.
Once it is revealed, she who is by his side will certainly not be able to hide, and her photos will be posted all over the newspapers. Who knows if there will be some messy comments, such as "Cinderella rises to fame overnight and captures the heart of a wealthy young man", or "The eldest son of the Shao family is exposed for his love debt" and so on.
Chen Lanjun doesn't want to challenge the skills of the Hong Kong paparazzi.
No, I still have to explain this to Shao Qinghe.
She walked forward with her brows frowned and her head down, and only stopped when she reached the place where the trees intersected.
After stopping, she realized that Shao Qinghe was too obedient. Was he just letting her lead him?
Turning her head, Shao Qinghe's mouth corners were raised, and his eyes were always fixed on her hand that was tightly holding his.
Chen Lanjun realized it belatedly and tried to shake it off, but failed.
Shao Qinghe refused to let go of her hand: "You held my hand first, and I followed you obediently. You can shake it off if you want."
Still looking cheerful and talkative.
This guy. Chen Lanjun glared at him. He was arrogant and proud in front of others, but he was used to acting like a rogue in front of her!
She gave up and shook off his hand, saying, "Okay, let me talk to you about something serious."
"You talk, I listen."
Thinking of Shao Qinghe's extremely intense reaction last time, Chen Lanjun was afraid to tell him directly that he couldn't accept it. After thinking about it, she decided to talk to him in more tactful terms.
"Ah He." She said, "I think you care about me, right?"
"Of course." Shao Qinghe answered immediately, his eyes full of seriousness, "I care about you very much."
"Then I will tell you my concerns."
Chen Lanjun briefly expressed her concerns.
"You are a celebrity in Hong Kong, and I think there are many media outlets watching your whereabouts. I don't want our photos to be printed all over the tabloids, nor do I want to appear in the tabloids as a woman who covets wealth and fame. Public opinion in this world is very harsh on girls. Once I am labeled as such, no matter how successful I am in the future, there will always be people pointing at my spine and saying, 'I relied on men to get to the top.'"
Chen Lanjun's tone gradually became serious: "If that really happens, it will not only be an insult to me, but also to you and us. Do you understand this worry?"
The sunlight shines through the dense forest and falls on the two people's clasped hands.
In the distance, it seemed as if there were birds flying through the woods, and the leaves were rustling.
After a moment of silence, Shao Qinghe tilted his head and thought for a while, then raised his eyes and said, "I understand."
His tone was extremely serious: "I promise, nothing like this will happen."
Chen Lanjun nodded.
If he understands, that's the best. If he doesn't care at all, then she needs to adjust her attitude towards him.
A person who truly cares about his or her loved one will not disregard the other's reputation.
She looked at Shao Qinghe, only to find that the corners of his mouth had begun to rise again without her noticing.
"why are you laughing?"
Chen Lanjun was puzzled.
"I'm happy," Shao Qinghe said, "I originally thought that you didn't want others to know about our relationship because you disliked me."
As he spoke, he looked at Chen Lanjun steadily with his smiling eyes.
"I'm so happy. It turns out you don't dislike me."
Facing his gaze, Chen Lanjun didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Suddenly, the grass around me shook violently, and the grass and trees moved in small pieces, as if there was some animal.
There won’t be any snakes or tigers, right?
Chen Lanjun widened her eyes slightly and subconsciously grabbed a stone in her palm.
At this time, Shao Qinghe opened his arms to block her.
In the tense moment, a... little wild boar suddenly jumped out from the grass?
A pair of pig eyes and two pairs of human eyes stared at each other.
A few seconds later, the little wild boar shook its ears, kicked its hooves and ran away from the road in front of the two people.
...The ecological environment on this mountain is really good.
Now that the matter was made clear, the two of them walked slowly towards the mountain villa hand in hand.
"I will take care of the paparazzi you are worried about. But I may need to play at home for a while today and go out after I am ready." Shao Qinghe said to Chen Lanjun with his head down.
"What you mean by arranged is..."
"Book the venue or clear it out," Shao Qinghe said confidently. "There are many ways to shut up the tabloids. I will take care of them."
That's really... what rich people do.
Simple and crude.
Well, I still need to make more money and then buy some newspapers or something, so that I can control the public opinion in this area and don’t have to worry about this or that.
Of course, you don't have to worry about other people's eyes in the villa.
Shao Qinghe opened every room and every corner to Chen Lanjun.
Such a large house, surprisingly, is actually a villa for one person to live in. The entire second floor, except for a guest room that looks a bit like a hotel room, is Shao Qinghe's bedroom suite, a cloakroom, a video room, and a study.
The study occupies a very good location, and the bookshelves are filled with a variety of books, both in Chinese and English.
As soon as Chen Lanjun walked in, her eyes lit up.
"Your place is just like a library."
"There are quite a lot of books, most of which are my mother and grandfather's original collections." Shao Qinghe said, "If you want to borrow them, you are welcome, but..."
"But what?"
"Only one book at a time."
Chen Lanjun spat softly: "You have a good plan."
"Jiang Taigong fishes, and those who are willing will take the bait."
Chen Lanjun ignored him and walked forward on the creaking wooden floor: "Are these books convenient for me to read?"
"It will be all right."
Her eyes scanned the place and finally stopped on a stack of newspapers on the shelf near the door.
She could read other books later, but now, reading these newspapers would be most helpful for her to understand the current situation in Hong Kong.
She pulled out a newspaper from the past month and flipped through it quickly, browsing through current affairs to see if she could recall some memories that would help her get rich.
When she turned to yesterday's newspaper, her eyes stopped.
The typeface clearly states: "Jiulongcang's stock market is in doubt, whether it will rise or fall remains a mystery."
Hong Kong's stock market...
Chen Lanjun seemed to understand something, turned around and asked Shao Qinghe: "Next time we meet, I want to go somewhere."
"Okay. What place is it?"
“The stock market.”
