"Ahem, granddaughter, why don't you say a few words?"
The seventh uncle turned to Su Yu and said slowly, "This is a good opportunity!"
"grandfather!"
Su Yu's expression was a little awkward, and she didn't even look at me, "Shen Fan, I... want to learn from you."
I can probably tell that Su Yu wants to be free, but uncle Qi wants to win over me.
Unlike receiving from one's own subordinates, this is a kind of "soft" solicitation.
"Seventh Uncle, there is no need to accept a disciple."
I stood up and handed her over, "Ms. Su is young and cannot waste time on these things. Besides, I am not good at academics."
"Grandpa, look! He said this himself!"
Su Yu stepped on the "step" I gave her and immediately said, "Besides, summer vacation is almost here, I'm going back to school!"
"Isn't your school in Hezhou? It's very convenient."
The seventh uncle took a deep breath and thought for a while, "Shen Fan, you don't have to accept a disciple. Let my granddaughter learn from you. Just treat it as a long-term experience."
"I heard that your first misunderstanding was because my granddaughter didn't obey the rules."
He stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I want to apologize to you here. I just took this opportunity to teach her the rules of antiques."
Who is the seventh uncle?
If he really wants to teach the rules, he will take action himself, Zhou Jianguo will take action, and there will even be many other subordinates.
It seemed like the way he looked, I had no choice but to accept this "soft" approach.
After all, he had "taken out" his granddaughter.
"I could use some teaching on the rules, but the place I'm renting now only has my friends and me, so it might not be convenient for her."
I said, "Why don't you leave your contact information so I can contact you easily."
"That's fine. This man and woman are in the same room. It's not good for word to spread."
The seventh uncle nodded slightly and looked at Su Yu, "Don't you thank me yet?"
"Thank you Shen Fan."
Amelia Su pouted and reluctantly spoke.
"Eat more, you've worked hard today, and I've troubled you so much."
The seventh uncle said as he put down the walnuts, clapped his hands, and the waiter filled the table with all kinds of delicacies.
"I want to pack some and take some to my roommate."
When I was almost done eating, I said, "I can't get enough of Uncle Seventh's feast."
"I just realized now that you have a very oily mouth. Well, being frugal is also a good thing."
The seventh uncle laughed, "But I prefer that you speak frankly before."
I guess he felt that I was full and started to think.
"Granddaughter, you go out with him for a walk today. I have something to do and I have to leave first."
After that, the seventh uncle left his position, followed by the few boys at the door.
"Brother Shen, I'm sorry, you just came back and made this arrangement."
Zhou Jianguo said and patted my shoulder.
"I heard that the seventh uncle has always doted on Miss Su, why today..."
I deliberately didn't finish my words, after all, Amelia Su was still there.
"It's still your thing."
Zhou Jianguo said, "Since the seventh uncle found out about the dispute between the young lady and you, he doubted whether he dotes on his granddaughter too much."
"Don't say I told you this!"
I nodded slightly.
"What's next?"
I looked at Su Yu and said, "Miss Su, you don't really want to go out with me as a favor, do you?"
I raised my eyebrows with a mocking look.
"Miss, the seventh uncle's people will be with you for a while, you'd better go first..."
"I know!"
Su Yu said, "I'm so angry to be so humble to you!"
Hearing this, I smiled slightly, this is Amelia Su.
"please."
I said this, holding the bag of vegetables and making a sign of invitation with my other hand.
Su Yu and I took the elevator to the first floor and walked out, while Zhou Jianguo went to the underground garage.
"Thank you."
Walking on the street, Su Yu said, "I don't know what happened to grandpa, but he suddenly wants me to be your apprentice! I want to learn from you again!"
"Your grandpa is doing a favor."
I put my hands behind my back and said, "It's a way to win over."
"I don't care if you people try to win over you or not!"
"I am who I am!"
Su Yu snorted, "Shen Fan, I'm warning you, don't push yourself too far. Even if you helped me on the boat, I won't admit it if you help me now!"
"Okay, my Miss Su, how long do we have to go?"
I thought, walking like this, it would take midnight to return to Xintiandi!
"Send me home. My grandpa won't say anything more when I get home."
Su Yu thought about it and said, "Don't try to take advantage of me!"
"As you command, young lady."
I said helplessly.
Walking on the road, in the hot summer night, a sudden gust of wind made me sober.
I was also a little scared and made other choices on my own at that time.
It was no accident that Uncle Qi invited me at this time.
Just rely on me to set traps when I feel tired.
Think carefully about whether you want to follow him, take on a disciple, etc.
Although he may have good intentions when something serious happens, he is taking advantage of others' danger.
Thinking of this, I can't help but sigh at the seventh uncle's methods.
"Shen Fan, please say something. Aren't you bored by being so bored?"
Su Yu looked at me and said, "Tell me a story."
"There's no story."
I spoke calmly, almost minding my own business.
"Why are you so boring?"
Su Yu said and almost slapped me on the head.
"Miss, you go back quickly, and I want to go back too. We don't owe each other anything."
I sighed, "I thank your grandpa for not driving me out of Hezhou, but I can't do anything for your grandpa."
"If you get on the ship, I will definitely ask my grandfather to drive you out of Hezhou!"
"But now..."
Su Yu thought for a while, "By the way, if I don't want to go to class, I can come to your place!"
Yes, the seventh uncle gave Amelia Su a place to "escape".
"You still have to take classes. Only after you graduate can you work well..."
I felt a strange smell as I spoke.
When I was in college, I was not a "model student."
Skipping classes to identify antiques and the like happened from time to time, and there were even a few professors who called me over every day to help me identify them on the grounds of "thesis"...
"What are you working on? I have grandpa here!"
"What if your grandpa is gone?"
"And my dad!"
"Are they all gone?"
I asked, "Do you still want to be free? I understand why the seventh uncle wanted to hand you over to me."
"Are you cursing my whole family? Be careful I complain to grandpa!"
Su snorted and turned away.
"He also wants you to take a good look at the world."
I spoke slowly, feeling a little more solemn.
Maybe I experienced the ups and downs of society and human relationships relatively early, so I can see through them.
Su Yu is like a pure greenhouse flower, free and willful. She doesn't know how high the sky is, and she doesn't know that her life is simply a paradise compared to many people in difficulty.
