How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself? Chapter 582 - 266: Grand Fireworks in the Flourishing Age, U
Fang Xun smiled, "You've already co, do you still need my advice?"
But despite saying that, Fang Xun thought for a few seconds and then continued, "Although I don't know what happened between you, I am a woman, so I can really understand Lin Ran's thoughts.
I think the fact that Lin Ran nad the bar 'First eting' has already explained a lot.
You say that Lin Ran has been avoiding you, but in reality, she hasn't; she has been in Wuzhen all these months. If you had really cared about her, you would have thought of her being in Wuzhen long ago.
Moreover, in the tis I have been chatting with Lin Ran recently, she often ntions you—even, I think her giving 20% of the shares wasn't to thank for helping her but rather she was trying to compensate on your behalf."
Gu Heng was completely baffled.
"What do you an, 'compensate on my behalf'?"
"Our thing, Fang Xun should know about it, right?
But she doesn't know the specifics, and doesn't know that you already gave what I deserved, thinking you're the kind of scumbag who hits and runs. As a woman, it's right for her to consider things from a woman's point of view."
"Doesn't that an you're making money twice from one business? I suggest we compensate again."
Fang Xun rolled her eyes again, "Can you focus on the main point?"
"What's the main point?"
"The main point is that she's compensating on your behalf.
Among all the won you've been involved with, do you think any of those won would do such a thing?
Why would Lin Ran do such a thing? Isn't it because she considers herself your girlfriend? You should understand now, right?"
Gu Heng fell silent upon hearing this...
Fang Xun was right...
Although they had never confird their relationship, what Lin Ran had done was indeed sothing a girlfriend would do...
Whether it was gifting him an entire set of Ultraman figurines or taking ti off to wish his mom a happy 50th birthday—these weren't things a typical female friend could do...
Not to ntion a typical female friend...
Even He Jing and Lin Jiayun didn't have this consideration...
This is the difference between a girlfriend and a casual fling...
One is purely transactional, while the other involves responsibility...
In fact, Gu Heng had always understood this; he had just subconsciously pretended to be oblivious...
Mainly because he suddenly beca wealthy, transitioning from a nobody to a wealthy big shot, and hadn't savored life yet. How could he be ready to fall into the grave of love?
Without having established a relationship with Lin Ran, his relationships with Lin Jiayun, He Jing, or the entertainnt figure Ouyang Nana, and sleeping with Yang Hanshu were at most considered a disordered private life, not scumbaggery.
But if he had a girlfriend and still ssed around, that would genuinely make him a scumbag...
Now that Fang Xun had laid it all out, Gu Heng was montarily at a loss for words...
After a long ti...
Gu Heng, who had been silent for a while, finally spoke.
"So, what should I do now?"
"Actually, neither the fireworks festival nor the drone show are necessary.
As long as you co in person and et her face-to-face, I believe that would be more aningful than anything else you could do.
Lin Ran isn't like . She's rich; she doesn't care whether you have money or not. You just need to show up in front of her—that should be enough. She's not 'Xia Zhu' from 'The Richest Man in Xihong City'; she doesn't need these things to be moved by you, and you should understand that without saying it.
You've already secretly wandered around the bar several tis these past few days; you know the address, so I guess you don't need to lead you there, right?"
Having said that, Fang Xun didn't wait for Gu Heng's response and simply turned away and left.
Gu Heng, on the other hand, watched Fang Xun's departing figure, gritted his teeth, and walked in the opposite direction...
...
...
Outside the bar...
Due to the promotion of the fireworks festival, countless people had flocked over...
A small bar actually had hundreds of people waiting in line outside...
Gu Heng even wondered if people would force him out if he cut in line to enter the bar...
While Gu Heng was hesitating, a clear child's voice rang out not far from him.
"Mommy, both these big brothers are buying flowers!"
Turning to look, he saw a tiny figure weaving through the queue...
Her two small pigtail braids swinging, she held a clean and tidy Kulomi plushie in her arms—looking like a playful and adorable little sprite...
Seeing the Kulomi in the little girl's hand, Gu Heng couldn't help but smile.
It looked like her mother hadn't gone back on her word, really buying her a Kulomi doll...
Suddenly...
The little girl who was anxiously hurrying seed to sense sothing. She turned around, and her gaze t Gu Heng's...
Under the night lights, two figures, one tall and one small, stood still, gazing at each other...
Looking into Gu Heng's eyes, the little girl, after a few seconds of confusion, suddenly flashed a pretty smile, took small steps, and quickly ran up to Gu Heng, lifting the Kulomi in her hands high.
"Brother! Do you think my Kulomi is pretty?"
Gu Heng was initially startled, then slowly replied, aligning his gaze with the little girl, smiling, "Do you know ?"
"Of course!
Mom says that you gave this Kulomi. I've seen that sister many tis, and I asked her why you weren't around, but she wouldn't tell ."
Gu Heng had always believed that children have special abilities, which would gradually disappear as they grew older...
Otherwise, how could it be explained that a little girl, who had t him only once, could recognize him among hundreds of people, even with a mask on?
Gu Heng was just about to reach out and touch her head, but the little girl suddenly ran off, not saying a word, quickly running to a woman selling flowers nearby, stood on tiptoe, snatched a small white flower from the woman's hand, then sprinted back to Gu Heng.
"Brother, this is for you."
"Why give it to ?"
Taking the little flower, Gu Heng finally managed to touch the little girl's head as he wished, his warm hand resting on the top of her head. The little girl squinted her crescent-moon-like eyes, and in a milky voice said, "The teacher said, if soone gives you a gift, you must give sothing back.
Brother, you gave Kulomi, so I'm giving you a small flower.
This flower was given to by the flower shop owner, it's not for sale."
Gu Heng didn't know why, but listening to the little girl's words, he always felt a tingling in his nose...
"Brother, I didn't give you a gift. I was buying flowers from your mom at the ti.
But your teacher is right, if soone gives you a gift, you definitely should give sothing back.
You gave a small flower, how about I give you lots and lots of flowers?"
The little girl didn't understand why Gu Heng would say this, but she still subconsciously nodded her head...
The next second, Gu Heng pulled out his cell phone and dialed Zhu Kai's number.
Although Zhu Kai didn't know why Gu Heng suddenly requested to set off the fireworks an hour before the event was to start, given that all costs were borne by Gu Heng, Gu Heng could be as capricious as he wanted, and Zhu Kai didn't raise any doubts and directly executed Gu Heng's orders...
Half a minute later...
As the first firework went off, the sky instantly dazzled...
One...
Ten...
A hundred...
Fireworks worth millions ignited the entire night sky...
The endless explosions made everyone look up involuntarily...
Even the patrons inside the tavern couldn't help but rush out.
Everyone stopped complaining about why the event organizer was so untily, as they all started recording with their mobile phones...
Not just fireworks...
Very soon...
Nearly ten thousand drones also took off at once, performing a pattern exactly as Gu Heng had initially planned...
"Brother, do you find the flowers I gave you pretty?"
"Pretty!"
What was ant to win Lin Ran's heart had been disrupted by the flower-selling little girl...
Very soon...
The drones transford into an image of Lin Ran, and the excited voice of the little girl suddenly rang out, pointing towards the distance and shouting to Gu Heng, "Brother, look! It's sister!"
Gu Heng looked at the image of Lin Ran in the sky, and smiling, lowered his head, "Yes, it's that sister."
The little girl, realizing Gu Heng didn't understand her, anxiously stamped her foot, "No, I an that sister is here!"
Gu Heng: "???"
The next second, a slightly cold voice rang out from behind Gu Heng.
"Using a fireworks and drone performance intended to please another woman doesn't seem appropriate, does it?"
Gu Heng slowly turned around, observing Lin Ran standing less than a ter away, her wine-red hair swaying with the cool autumn breeze, her delicate face wearing a slight smile, ti seed to halt.
Eyes t...
