In order to celebrate that Guan Xiaowei's plan was broken, Zhou Zichen and Guan Xiaoxue found a place to have a great meal.
Zhou Zichen was actually a little curious as to why the two brothers Guan Xiaoxue and Guan Xiaowei had such a tense relationship, and it seemed that there was no uncle or uncle in their family.
"Xiaoxue, why is the relationship between you and Guan Xiaowei so tense?"
Guan Xiaoxue was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The relationship between our families is quite special."
"Oh..., that's it. Let's eat later and go shopping outside!" Zhou Zichen heard Guan Xiaoxue say that the relationship is quite special, and did not continue to ask. People can talk about such things if they want to, but not if they don't want to.
If so, asking would be asking for trouble.
Seeing that Zhou Zichen really didn't ask, Guan Xiaoxue approached him and said, "Aren't you curious? Why don't you ask?"
Zhou Zichen gave Guan Xiaoxue two pieces of fish: "You can talk about these things if you want to."
"And didn't you just say that? Your relationship is quite special, which means that the relationship between your family is not as simple as the relationship between ordinary families. Moreover, judging from your words, you feel that the relationship between your family is indeed very special. You
Seeing it with a special perspective proves that you care about this special relationship. For example, if you hate it very much or cherish this relationship very much, it is a special relationship."
Guan Xiaoxue stuffed a mouthful of fish: "I suddenly discovered that you can still be a literary young man if you have nothing to do. Although your language expression ability is a bit weak, you are a literary young man. In fact, Guan Xiaowei and I are not brothers and sisters."
When Zhou Zichen saw Guan Xiaoxue talking about it, he didn't interrupt. Zhou Zichen was not surprised that Guan Xiaoxue and Guan Xiaowei were not biological siblings.
Guan Xiaoxue continued: "He and I are both orphans adopted by my grandfather. My grandfather had no children in his life, so he adopted us two when he was old and raised us as grandchildren."
This surprised Zhou Zichen. Zhou Zichen originally thought that their parents were a combination of divorced parents, but he did not expect that the reason was more surprising than Zhou Zichen thought.
"Then you have to work hard. Guan Xiaowei is not a good person. If he becomes the head of the Guan family, he will definitely not give you good things to eat." Zhou Zichen reminded Guan Xiaoxue.
These days, Zhou Zichen has also come to understand that Guan Xiaoxue's advantage is greater than Guan Xiao. At least for now, Mr. Guan is leaning towards Guan Xiaoxue. This is the most important thing.
No matter how many tricks Guan Xiaowei plays, whether he can inherit the Guan Group in the end will still depend on Mr. Guan nodding and letting him go.
Guan Xiaoxue's face suddenly flickered: "I don't care what will happen to Guan Xiaowei in the future. We were raised by my grandfather. Although my grandfather now prefers me to be in charge of the Guan Group, it's because he knows Guan Xiaowei's character and doesn't trust him.
The group was handed over to him."
"But grandpa still has feelings for Guan Xiaowei, otherwise he wouldn't have let Guan Xiaowei make trouble. After all, grandpa also raised Guan Xiaowei."
Zhou Zichen nodded and said nothing more. In fact, Guan Xiaoxue saw it more clearly than anything else. Although Mr. Guan, Guan Xiaoxue and Guan Xiaowei had a grandfather-grandson relationship, it sounded more like a father-son relationship.
"Okay, have you finished eating? Let's go out for a walk. It's pointless to keep talking about this!" Zhou Zichen did not continue this topic. After all, this topic was not so pleasant, and it was Guan Xiaoxue's private matter. If one day Guan Xiaoxue needs
When helping, Zhou Zichen would never stand idly by.
The two of them came out of the hotel, and the night lights were flickering outside.
"Let's go for a walk by the river! There is a wetland park just past here. It's very lively there at night." Guan Xiaoxue suggested.
After all, the city is so big, and Zhou Zichen is really not very familiar with it: "Okay, let's go for a walk!"
When Zhou Zichen arrived at the Wetland Park by the river, he realized that it was indeed very lively here, but most of them were couples hanging out by the river. Needless to say, it goes without saying that this place is probably a holy place for couples to date.
"Isn't the scenery here pretty good?" Guan Xiaoxue asked pretending to be very relaxed.
There is a long string of colored lights hanging on the protective railings by the river. Opposite is a shopping mall. The colored lights flash with various patterns. Behind it is a small forest and forest paths. The dim lights are very emotional.
It's indeed a nice place.
"fine!"
"Brother, buy some flowers for your sister!" A childish voice interrupted the conversation between the two.
Zhou Zichen looked down and saw a little girl who looked about five or six years old, not much older than Yaya.
The little girl is wearing a pink coat that has been washed and discolored. The style is a bit old. There is still some grease on the clothes that has not been washed away. She has a ponytail tied up. It is not very well done and is a bit messy. She is holding a flower basket in her hand.
, put twenty to hide roses in it.
What Zhou Zichen hates the most is children suffering. After all, he has experienced it before: "Okay, little sister, how do you sell your flowers?"
"Twenty yuan a flower!" the little girl said crisply.
Twenty yuan a flower is actually much more expensive than what you get from a flower shop.
Zhou Zichen took out his wallet, took out a twenty note, handed it to the little girl, then picked up a rose from the flower basket, turned around and handed it to Guan Xiaoxue: "For you!"
What do roses represent? Love!
If it were another person, Guan Xiaoxue would definitely not accept it, but Zhou Zichen made her blush a little and shyly accepted the rose. After receiving the flower, she didn't know what to say, so she simply turned to the little girl and asked: "Little girl
Sister, why are you selling flowers alone?"
The little girl bowed to the two of them crisply: "Thank you, big brother and big sister!"
After thanking her, the little girl said: "I want to sell flowers to go to school. If I buy them, I will go to school."
The innocent words of the little girl made Zhou Zichen couldn't help but feel nervous. This is still a big city, and the situation in some rural villages will only become more severe.
Zhou Zichen has gone through that stage and has been living in an orphanage. Only he knows the suffering here.
But having said that, people who live a hard life have never experienced a superior life. In fact, they themselves do not feel that it is so hard. But the richer Zhou Zichen is, the more he feels for these children when he thinks of his childhood days.
"Little sister, where are your parents?" Zhou Zichen knelt down and asked. Because he was standing, the little girl kept raising her head to talk.
The little girl fell silent for a moment, with a little loss in her eyes. Tears gradually filled her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them flow down.
Zhou Zichen and Guan Xiaoxue looked at each other. At such a young age, someone might have taught him to sell flowers to gain sympathy, but the feelings shown by the child were unmistakable.
"Little sister, can you tell us where your home is?" Guan Xiaoxue asked softly.
Zhou Zichen could tell that Guan Xiaoxue wanted to help this little girl. Maybe it would cost hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands to help this little girl go to school. For ordinary people, it was a lot of money, but for Guan Xiaoxue
Said, but not much.
Zhou Zichen couldn't help but have something extra in his eyes when he looked at Guan Xiaoxue. Zhou Zichen had always thought that Guan Xiaoxue was quite good. Perhaps the current Guan Xiaoxue was perfect in Zhou Zichen's eyes.
"Xia Xiaorong, I asked you to sell flowers, what are you doing?" A gloomy and angry voice came from not far away, with a hint of impatience in the voice.
Zhou Zichen saw this man early in the morning. He had been sitting not far from the little girl drinking beer.
The little girl named Xia Xiaorong was so frightened that her face turned pale. She didn't dare to talk to Zhou Zichen anymore and turned around to continue selling flowers.
Zhou Zichen looked at the little girl. Although he didn't like this middle-aged man, he still endured the disgust in his heart and walked over: "Brother, hello, my name is Zhou Zichen, and this little girl is your child? We
I want to help this little girl.”
The middle-aged man's originally gloomy expression immediately burst into smiles when he heard Zhou Zichen's words, and gave up a section of the bench: "Please sit down, both of you. My name is Zhu Changde, and I am Xiaorong's father."
Zhou Zichen just heard Zhu Changde call the little girl Xia Xiaorong. The two people had different surnames at all, and the little girl was very afraid of Zhu Changde at first sight.
Of course, there are also children who have the same surname as their mother. The fact that two people have different surnames does not completely explain the problem.
"Brother Zhu, it's like this. We want to help the little girl study and provide her with daily clothing. We want to do a door-to-door visit," Zhou Zichen said.
Zhu Changde's face changed slightly, and he said with a smile: "I am her father, just give me the funding."
Under normal circumstances, Zhou Zichen would have given it to Zhu Changde, but there were too many doubts in the process. Zhou Zichen insisted on going to his home to have a look: "The subsidy is for children to go to school. Every time the school starts, we will
We will check the school where the child goes to school, and we will pay the money directly to the school. As for clothes, we go back to see the child twice a year, in spring and autumn. When we go to see the child, we will buy him clothes for the next six months."
Zhou Zichen said this deliberately. If all charity activities were like this, then the charity people would be busy to death.
Zhu Changde's face dropped as soon as he heard this: "You don't believe me? If you don't believe me, just leave."
"Brother Zhu, we are sincere and want to help the children!" Zhou Zichen was absolutely sure that there was something fishy about this Zhu Changde. He just wanted to get the financial aid. Even if the money was given to him, he would not let the children go to school.
Zhu Changde sneered: "Who wants your help? Get out of here!"
A couple who happened to be passing by heard the conversation between Zhou Zichen and Zhu Changde and came over to pull Zhou Zichen. The boy said: "Brother, this man brings that little girl here to sell flowers every day. For a while, everyone knew
If he didn't buy the little girl, he would beat the little girl here for two days, beating the little girl with his fingers and whipping her with bamboo sticks..."
"You talk nonsense, so get out of here." Zhu Changde said, already standing up, with a continuous wave of evil aura, Zhu Changde, who is nearly 1.9 meters tall, is actually quite intimidating.
This couple was just young people in their twenties, and they were frightened when they saw Zhu Changde like this.
Seeing this, Zhou Zichen stood between the two lovers and Zhu Changde: "What do you want to do?"
"What are you doing? Get out of here now. If you don't, see what I'm going to do." Zhu Changde said and picked up the beer bottle from the bench.
