Chapter 54: Eat a Candy and It Won't Hurt!
"You drove here?"
After settling the bill, Yun Yun Shuqian followed Qin Qin Xiaoyu into the elevator. Seeing him press the "-1" button, she turned her head in confusion, looked up, and asked.
Buying a car in this era was nothing new.
However, what Yun Yun Shuqian found strange was that not long ago, the news she heard from Chen Wei suggested Qin Qin Xiaoyu's startup was not going smoothly.
It had been less than two months; being able to buy a car was clearly unreasonable.
"Someone gave it to me."
After Qin Qin Xiaoyu answered, the two had arrived on the first basement level. After walking a few steps, they reached that brand-new Cullinan.
He then walked into the driver's seat on his own.
Seeing this, Yun Yun Shuqian behind him froze completely on the spot.
Generally speaking, girls do not know many car brands.
But Yun Yun Shuqian was, after all, a counselor at Yun University; she naturally would not be unfamiliar with such an obvious Little Golden Man logo.
Someone gave this car to him?
Whether others believed it or not, she certainly didn't believe a single punctuation mark. A walking God of Wealth, a figure like Gao He, would it be possible for him to give away a Rolls-Royce?
"Are you coming or not?"
Qin Qin Xiaoyu started the car. Seeing Yun Yun Shuqian hadn't gotten in for a long time, he rolled down the passenger window and urged her.
In that instant, Yun Yun Shuqian suddenly felt that the man before her seemed increasingly incomprehensible, even possessing a strange sense of distance.
Yun Yun Shuqian knew clearly that this feeling was not caused by not meeting for a long time.
It was as if Qin Qin Xiaoyu had suddenly become a different person.
To figure out exactly what caused such a change in him, she had to go there no matter what.
"Go, of course I'll go!"
Yun Yun Shuqian came to her senses, opened the car door, and sat in the passenger seat.
What Qin Qin Xiaoyu found somewhat strange was that after getting in the car, Yun Yun Shuqian did not continue to ask anything.
Yun Yun Shuqian fastened her seatbelt, gazed quietly out the window, her thoughts drifting far away, a trace of daze flashing in her eyes.
Evening.
At the entrance of a children's welfare home in Yun City, the sunset sprinkled the ground, everything seeming dyed in a layer of gold.
Under the picturesque scenery, few people noticed the extremely discordant scene playing out not far away.
A very young-looking little girl was running through the crowd, lost and frantic.
Tears in her eyes, she ran while occasionally looking back at what was behind her.
When a strange man and woman appeared in her line of sight, the expression on the little girl's face became even more panicked.
Pebbles on the road tripped the girl.
Fierce and terrifying wounds covered the girl's knees; powerlessness and intense pain generated despair and fear in the girl's heart.
Just then, a small hand appeared before the girl.
"Get on, I'll carry you! They are catching up fast."
The little boy reached out to pull the little girl up, squatted halfway, and said while looking back.
The little girl hesitated for a few seconds, looked at the strange man and woman constantly approaching behind her, gritted her teeth, used her last bit of strength, and climbed onto the little boy's back.
The little boy, struggling under the weight of the little girl, turned a corner at the end of the road, then passed through a broken gap, entered the welfare home, and finally arrived at a corner.
"I... it's okay!"
The little boy panted heavily. After resting for a while, he looked at the girl and continued to ask, "Who were those two?"
"I... I don't know them."
A trace of panic and unease on her face, the little girl shook her small head and answered.
