Shen Daoru drove the driver to the car at the back. He asked Li Aijun to sit in the front passenger seat and drove the car himself.

Li Aijun smiled and said, "I'm sorry to trouble a big boss like you."
"If you don't know my background, I can be thick-skinned enough to accept a few compliments, but you know me very well. It's not like you haven't seen how I was in the past. Without Mr. Li, I wouldn't be where I am today. You are mocking me by saying that." Thinking back to the time when he traveled thousands of miles to Beijing for 10,000 HKD, he was miserable. It was still fresh in his memory as if it was just yesterday.
"I'm telling the truth. You graduated from a famous university. You're an intellectual. It's a pity that I didn't study much, so I always admire people like you who study hard. You're helping him manage such a big business. Ordinary people can't do that. If I were you, I wouldn't be able to do it even if you killed me. The documents you gave me are all in English. I don't understand any of them. "
Shen Daoru smiled and said, "In Hong Kong, there are as many university students as dogs. The most worthless people are university students."
Li Aijun didn't believe him. "How can you mock me like that? Studying more is more useful than studying less."
The car stopped at Yuan Da Company's building. The security guard at the door immediately opened the doors on both sides. "Mr. Shen."
Shen Daoru threw the car key to the driver behind him and said to Li Aijun, "This is my company. The whole building is ours. Let's go. I'll take you upstairs."
"So generous." Li Aijun complimented casually. His mind was obviously not on the building. After he got out of the car, his eyes started looking around. He was eager to see that familiar figure.
"There are so many rich people. Why can't it be me?"
"I can endure hardship and tiredness because I see hope."
"There's a flower bed in front of our restaurant. I like to go there and watch the little ants move."
Her every frown and every smile lingered in his mind.
"Old Li. Old Li. "Shen Daoru called him three times, but he didn't respond.
He only understood when Shen Daoru patted his shoulder.
"I'm sorry."
"What are you thinking about?"
Li Aijun hesitated for a moment and said, "Didn't I give you a thousand dollars when I went back last time?"
"Yeah, you told me to give it to the girl who took care of you, so I gave it to her." Li Aijun pointed at a building in the corner. "There, it's that tea restaurant."
"Her name is Gong Min."
"Oh." Shen Daoru dragged out his words. He was not an idiot, and now he understood. He smiled and asked, "You can't be playing the 'love at first sight' trick, right?"
Li Aijun said, "Are you doubting my character? I'm not playing! "
"I'm just joking. Why are you so serious?" Shen Daoru saw his unhappy expression and hurriedly changed his tone. Some people could joke around, but some people couldn't.
"I want to go over and take a look. You go about your own business."
"You came to my place. I can't let you leave just like that."
"Thank you, but I really don't need it." Li Aijun rejected Shen Daoru's kindness and brought his companions to the tea restaurant.
It was not dinner time yet, so there were no customers in the tea restaurant. There were only a few waiters lying on the table, yawning or chatting.
Through the bright restaurant window, he finally saw the figure that he had been thinking about day and night.
She was chatting with another girl, and they seemed to be talking about something happy as they were chatting excitedly.
As he watched, his eyes became moist.
"Old Li?" His companion called out to him carefully. "Should we go in?"
Li Aijun shook his head. "Let's go back."
His companions looked at his back as he turned around, feeling baffled.
During dinner, Li Aijun asked Li He, "I heard my sister say something like 'It's better not to see each other'. Do you know anything about it?"
Li He frowned and thought for a long time before smiling. "I think it's a poem written by Sima Guang."
"The Sima Guang who smashed the vat?"
"The correct one should be 'It's better to see each other than to see each other. It's better to have feelings than to be heartless'."
Li Aijun finished his glass of wine and muttered after a long time, "I know what it means, but it's not good. I also know that it's written well, very well, really well."
"The general meaning is that it's better not to see each other than to make people miss each other. It's better to be heartless. If you're heartless, you won't feel pain because of love. " This was probably what people meant when they said that it could only be understood but not explained. Li He pondered for a while and helped to explain. Then, he asked curiously, "What's wrong with you today? You're so nervous. "
"It's nothing. Let's drink."
That night, Li Aijun got himself drunk.
Li He followed behind and was puzzled. There must be something wrong with this Li Aijun.
At night, he and Laowu each slept in a room. When he woke up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, he realized that Five's light was still on. He pushed the door open and saw Five sitting on the bed in a daze.
"Did anyone offend you?"
"Brother, I don't want to stay here alone."
"Do you want to stay in your hometown and farm for the rest of your life? You always think of ways to slack off when I ask you to work in the fields. If you don't study, you won't have a future. " Although these words were a little utilitarian, they were from the bottom of his heart. He could give her money, but he couldn't give her a future. A future had to be earned by herself. Without a future, she naturally wouldn't be able to keep her money.
"I can't understand what they're saying. I can't understand a single word. "
Li He smiled and rubbed her head. "It's okay. I've asked around for you. If you go to school, a teacher will teach you. Don't you hate math? There won't be math classes then."
For the sake of caution, he still let her study for the first half of the year. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for her to pass the language test. At the same time, it would be difficult for her to adapt to the teaching progress and living environment when she suddenly entered the classroom.
"Is there really no math?"
"We'll know when we go and take a look. Alright, go to sleep. "
He covered her with the blanket again and turned off the air conditioner in the room. Just as he was about to turn off the lights, Five suddenly said, "I want to sleep with the lights on."
"Okay, go to sleep then."
He didn't fall asleep after lying down. Seeing that it was already past five o 'clock, he simply put on his clothes and got up. When he went downstairs, he saw that only the breakfast shop was open. The other shops were not open, and it was cold and quiet. It was hard to imagine how busy it was at night. There was no one on the road, only the cleaners were sweeping the road quickly.
He finished a steamer of buns, yawned a few times, and went back to sleep.
Yu Dehua was very dissatisfied with Shen Daoru, who was a step ahead of him. "Young man, your stamina is not bad. You can still wake up so early at night."
Shen Daoru smiled and said, "You're the only one who knows how to talk nonsense."
Yu Dehua teased, "There are a lot of gossip reports about you, Boss Shen. It's said that there's a gossip page for you. "
