Chapter 23 Jiang Silu: I Don't Want to See You
Jiang Silu returned to school grumbling.
"You, Jiang Sifan, when I get home for winter break, I'm going to tell Mom about this and she'll give you a good beating. No, I'm going to tell Mom tonight."
Just as she got off the bus and was about to walk towards the school gate.
Lu Fan appeared.
In fact, he already knew that Jiang Silu had gone to Jinling Institute of Technology to look for Jiang Sifan today.
After all, the bodyguards assigned to protect them were top-notch. In addition to their exceptional secrecy, they were also responsible for keeping Lu Fan informed of their every move.
These bodyguards were all previously rewarded by the system as "tools".
They are 100% loyal to Lu Fan, their only host.
That's why he was able to wait at the school gate before Jiang Silu got off the bus.
When Jiang Silu saw Lu Fan, she instinctively became nervous.
This is the third time we've met.
During their first meeting, Jiang Silu thought Lu Fan was a good person. He helped her push her bicycle on a rainy day and even paid 20 yuan for the repairs.
During their second encounter, reminded by her mother, she dared not speak to Lu Fan and told him to stay away from her.
Now, on their third meeting, Jiang Silu has learned that the middle-aged man in the suit, exuding an air of sophistication, is her biological father.
That's the biological father I've longed to see since I was a child.
Although Jiang Silu knew that she and Lu Fan would meet again sooner or later.
I was also mentally prepared.
But when she looked at Lu Fan in front of her now, she was still nervous and at a loss.
But Jiang Silu still remembered how Lu Fan made her mother secretly cry at night. This hatred, which had been brewing for over ten or twenty years, could not be completely erased all at once.
So she asked coldly, "What are you doing here? I've already told you, I don't want to see you."
"I just happened to be passing by. I was wondering if I'd see you at school, but I only stayed at the school gate for a short while before I saw you walking by. What a coincidence!" Lu Fan said with a smile.
Although Jiang Silu was just a freshman in college, she didn't believe such words, after all, she was already an adult.
Tricks might work on younger girls, but Jiang Silu is no younger girl.
She simply explained, "If you want to see how I'm doing, then you can go back now. I'm doing very well."
"Is the new phone any good?" Lu Fan asked. "By the way, is that set of cosmetics suitable for you? I asked the Chanel store manager, and she said that set of cosmetics is quite skin-friendly. I thought your skin is pretty good, so you shouldn't be allergic to the cosmetics."
Jiang Silu glanced at the iPhone in her hand and said frankly, "I originally didn't want your things and didn't want any contact with you, but Mom said I shouldn't feel guilty about the things you gave me, and I should just accept them, because this is something you owe us."
"But if you're trying to morally blackmail me with your phone and cosmetics, then I can give your iPhone back to you now."
As she spoke, Jiang Silu picked up the iPhone, handed it to Lu Fan, and gestured to return it.
Looking at Jiang Silu's serious expression, Lu Fan thought to himself that she really was similar to Jiang Yixia.
Yes, when they get stubborn, even their faces look exactly the same.
He immediately replied, "Don't worry, I won't try to morally blackmail you. The gifts I gave you were all based on your actual needs. Last time when I was getting your car repaired, I noticed that your phone was a bit laggy. I don't know if you like iPhones. If you don't like iPhones, I can buy you other brands, or Huawei or Xiaomi."
"I really like this iPhone." Although Jiang Silu knew very well that Lu Fan had given her these gifts voluntarily, out of politeness, she hesitated for two seconds before finally saying, "I still have to thank you for giving me so many valuable gifts."
Jiang Silu bowed slightly to express her gratitude.
"It's okay. By the way, why don't you add my phone number? I know you definitely won't add me on WeChat, but if you add my phone number to your contacts, you can call me anytime if anything happens."
Lu Fan continued, "After all, your mother is in Guangzhou, which is quite a distance from Nanjing. Distant water can't quench a nearby fire. Of course, your brother is also in Nanjing, but there are always problems that your brother can't solve. If you need help, it might be faster to contact me."
Jiang Silu thought for a few seconds and finally agreed to Lu Fan's suggestion.
She took out her phone and handed it to Lu Fan: "Then enter your phone number, and I'll make a note of it later."
"it is good."
Lu Fan skillfully entered his mobile phone number and then handed it to Jiang Silu.
Jiang Silu glanced at the phone, then put it back in her pocket and looked at him, saying, "If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
"Oh, right," Lu Fan continued, "the gift boxes I gave to your brother before, he didn't want any of them, he just refused to accept them. I know your brother is resentful towards me, which is normal. So I put the boxes for your brother in the guard room of your dormitory. You can keep them for now, or you can see if he needs them and then give them to him for another reason."
"it is good."
This time, Jiang Silu didn't refuse.
Because his brother Jiang Sifan has always been very competitive and a person who cares a lot about his image.
Naturally, she wouldn't accept Lu Fan's attentiveness.
After Jiang Silu left, her assistant, Jiali, came up and asked, "Boss, are we going back to Guangzhou tonight?"
"Of course, the steamed bun shop has just opened, so we naturally need to put in extra effort to promote it," Lu Fan said with a smile.
Jiali worriedly asked, "Boss, you have to travel back and forth every day, and each flight takes two hours. Can your body handle it?"
"Of course, no problem." Lu Fan joked to himself, "Back in the day, the title of 'Seven Times a Night' wasn't just for show."
Upon hearing this, Chen He was somewhat surprised: "Boss, were you this fierce before?"
"It's about the same now." Lu Fan waved his hand, then got back into the car: "Let's go to Guangzhou."
On her way back to her dormitory.
She took out her phone, looked at the number she had just entered, hesitated for a moment, and finally gave the number a nickname: "[He]".
Jiang Silu didn't want to directly label him as a bad guy, as it would be disrespectful, but she would never use terms like "dad" or "father."
At this stage, it's absolutely impossible for her to accept Lu Fan as her biological father.
After thinking it over, this word best describes her current relationship with Lu Fan.
Back at the entrance of the dormitory compound, I picked up my suitcase from the guardhouse.
The box was so heavy that Jiang Silu was curious about what was inside.
Back in her dorm, she opened it and took a look.
An iPhone, a laptop, two down jackets, and a pair of sneakers.
"Goodness, I bought so many nice things for Jiang Sifan, but he doesn't want them."
Of course, she could understand her brother.
After all these years, Jiang Sifan had been harboring resentment. Every time his peers mocked him since childhood, the phrase "bastard without a father" was enough to break his defenses for more than a decade.
This is why Jiang Silu's hatred for her father is not as great as Jiang Sifan's, because Jiang Sifan has been enduring and protecting her all these years.
"Never mind, he's definitely not going to accept these gifts in his current state. I'll just put them under the bed and give them to him when it's more appropriate." With that, Jiang Silu pushed the box inside.
