Grandma Luo didn’t know that Luo Tianyuan was the CEO of the corporate, and he or she merely assumed that he had put in quite a lot of effort to assist her son discover a job. She was extraordinarily grateful. Now that folks wished to make the most of him, she instantly got here ahead like a mom hen to guard him; she’d peck whoever approached him.

Luo Shuyan had gotten away from bed when Luo Tianyuan was out shopping for breakfast.

Elementary college youngsters reside by a set schedule. They go to mattress by 9PM and get up at 7PM. Luo Shuyan stayed in mattress for a bit longer at this time.

Not lengthy after brushing her tooth, she heard a knock on the residence door. She threw on her slippers and walked to the door. She figured that it should be her father and he’d forgotten to convey the keys out with him.

As soon as she opened the door, she noticed Shen Yan.

He should’ve simply gotten up as a result of there have been marks on his face from sleeping on a bamboo mat.

“My mother made inexperienced bean soup,” Shen Yan mentioned.

Luo Shuyan was shocked. ‘What’s the big day at this time?’ Shen Yan personally got here to knock on her door. She’d by no means skilled such particular therapy earlier than.

She had a very good relationship with Aunty Shen, so that they frequented one another’s locations as if it have been their very own.

‘Why is Shen Yan so enthusiastic at this time? What does he need?’

Nobody can be courteous for no purpose. He’s both a traitor or a thief.

Luo Shuyan discovered an evidence for Shen Yan’s go to. ‘I suppose that he doesn’t have sufficient pocket cash and he’s right here to borrow some from me?’

Yesterday, whe she was skipping rope throughout a break between courses, she noticed him stroll out from his classroom. He stood from afar and watched the boys play with marbles.

‘Did he acquire an curiosity in direction of marbles?’

“Oh,” Luo Shuyan mentioned, “My dad is out shopping for breakfast.”

She realized that Shen Yan wasn’t planning to go away even after she tried to divert the subject. He even seemed just a little hesitant to say what he was considering. Luo Shuyan sighed in her coronary heart. Since her father purchased a automobile, she additionally needed to reduce on her spending. Yesterday, if somebody got here to her to borrow some pocket cash, she would’ve agreed immediately. Nonetheless, at this time, with the sudden change in her household’s monetary scenario, she couldn’t be as beneficiant as she would’ve been the day earlier than.

Nonetheless, this pal of hers hardly ever requested for favors from others, and that is probably the primary time he’s ever achieved so. So, she couldn’t reject him.

“Come on in.”

Luo Shuyan walked again into her home and Shen Yan stalled for a second earlier than following swimsuit.

He had recognized Luo Shuyan for 2 years they usually attended the identical kindergarten. Again then, their trainer had advised them to attract one thing, and he or she had drawn two homes. Again then, she’d chattered with him continuous in regards to the residences. So, he figured that she actually preferred the 2 residences, she’d even given them names; one was referred to as ‘Prosperity’, whereas one other was referred to as ‘Blessed’.

Shuyan should be very offended over the truth that Uncle Luo had offered ‘Blessed’ away with a view to purchase a automobile.

There weren’t many youngsters at Luo Shuyan’s age who obtained a say within the quantity of pocket cash they acquired. Luo Tianyuan actually wished to spoil her rotten. He would give her CNY10 per week. It price 1 cent to purchase an ice popsicle or a spicy strip that the youngsters beloved. Thus, you could possibly determine how a lot CNY10 was to youngsters. Apart from that, that they had a number of baskets on the desk prime of their front room, and Luo Tianyuan would go away his spare money there. He all the time reminded her to take nonetheless a lot she wanted.

Therefore, even after changing into destitute, Luo Shuyan nonetheless had sufficient cash to lend to Shen Yan to purchase marbles.

Earlier than Luo Shuyan went to take her cash, Shen Yan who was following behind her mentioned, “Uncle Luo’s automobile…”

Luo Shuyan rotated and checked out him, confused.

“I heard that my mother will likely be shopping for the residence that we’re staying in.” Shen Yan checked out her and continued, “Your father is trying to promote the residence.”

Luo Shuyan already knew of this and had come to phrases with it. Her expression didn’t change as she mentioned, “I do know.”

Shen Yan fastidiously noticed her expression. He requested, “Aren’t you offended?”

This was a very good query.

Was Luo Shuyan offended? In fact not.

The residence they have been staying in was her grandmother’s, and the one subsequent door was the one her father had purchased together with her grandparent’s cash.

After the passing of her grandparents, the 2 homes belonged to her father. So technically talking, for the time being, it didn’t belong to her.

Because it was her father’s, he was free to do what he noticed match. He was a grown man and naturally, he knew higher. Though she was uncertain about life and felt as if she’d misplaced tens of hundreds, it was merely due to the lack of the property.

The 2 residences gave her a way of safety. As for her, she believed that her sense of worth and safety was nothing in comparison with her father’s happiness!

‘So long as Papa is glad, that’s all that issues!’

It didn’t matter if he purchased a automobile. Worse involves worse, she’ll simply not ask for pocket cash when she’s barely older.

Luo Shuyan shook her head. “I’m not offended in any respect.”

She was talking the reality. Nonetheless, in Shen Yan’s eyes, together with her bitter expression, he was reminded of a phrase he noticed on a e book within the bookshop a number of days in the past —

‘It was the calm earlier than the storm.’
