Chapter 553 Fireworks for Others
"6:45, how do you explain this time?"
Jin Yu nodded his chin, looking serious: "And didn't you notice that if we set off fireworks here, the Shen family can see them clearly."
Shen Lan's mind was a little confused: "Don't think too much, coincidence must be coincidence."
How could Xiao Yun light fireworks for her after she and Xiao Yun had such a quarrel?
"But……"
Jin Yu had just said two words when the girl next to him cupped her hands over her face, looking envious. "I heard that these are the fireworks that Mr. Xiao set off for his future wife. Today is her birthday. Ah, how romantic."
"We will distribute gifts to everyone present later."
"Wow, Mr. Xiao is very generous."
Shen Lan heard these discussions and shrugged at Jin Yu: "See, you're overthinking it. These fireworks aren't set off for me at all."
Xiao Yun never thought of marrying her, as the future president's wife was someone else.
Jin Yu frowned and said, "That's too coincidental. Li Hui and you have the same birthday and were born at the same time. It's a little too coincidental."
"Think about it from another angle." Shen Lan looked at her and smiled faintly. The beautiful rays of light fell into her eyes, showing a bit of loneliness.
"Perhaps Xiao Yun chose me precisely because my date of birth is the same as Li Hui's."
"Fuck!" Jin Yu couldn't help but curse: "What era is it now? You're still using such a lousy trick as a stand-in, what a scumbag!"
As she spoke, she pulled Shen Lan's wrist and walked out: "Let's not watch it anymore. What's so good about fireworks? If you like, we can buy some fireworks and set them off ourselves later."
Shen Lan looked at the back of her head, which was so angry that the fuzz on her hair was about to explode.
She couldn't help but laugh and said, "What fireworks? You can't just set off fireworks in the city. Xiao Yun's fireworks must have been approved, environmentally friendly fireworks or something."
Without even turning around, Jin Yu angrily said, "Then we'll approve it too and set off environmentally friendly fireworks."
"Why are you angry with him? He's just trying to coax his future wife..."
"Then I'm also coaxing my best friend."
Shen Lan felt a surge of sweetness when she heard this: "You don't need to use fireworks to coax me. I'm already very happy. Very happy."
After she finished speaking, she saw that Jin Yu didn't react at all and just walked out with his head down, and she realized that something was wrong.
Shen Lan quickly walked over to stand shoulder to shoulder with her, holding her waist and forcing her to stop.
"What's wrong? What's going on?"
Jin Yu tilted his head to prevent her from looking at his face, but Shen Lan forced him to turn around.
"Why are you crying?"
Shen Lan carefully wiped her tears, his face full of anxiety and worry.
This was the first time she saw Jin Yu cry like this. She didn't make any sound, but just shed tears silently, one after another, sliding down her cheeks.
Afraid that she would hear her sobs, Jin Yu bit her lip and tried to hold back her tears, almost biting her lower lip to pieces.
When Jin Yu saw her looking at him with red eyes, his tears flowed even harder.
"I just, I just think it's too difficult for you."
She choked out these words and burst into tears.
Jin Yu is the person who has been with Shen Lan the longest in this world. He has known her since her parents were alive.
I witnessed her transformation from a pampered little princess to an orphan living under the care of others after losing both her parents.
I've seen her being ignored and bullied in the Lu family, I've seen her being bullied at school, I've seen her give all her heart but be discarded by Lu Yunfan, and I've also seen her shine a little bit by Xiao Yun's side, and occasionally reveal a little happiness.
For a moment, Jin Yu really felt that Shen Lan had finally overcome all the hardships and finally got his reward.
But I didn't expect that even that little bit of happiness was just a bubble.
substitute?
Haha, what a disgusting word.
How could Shen Lan be used as someone else's substitute!
Her thoughts are unique and brilliant. Why would Xiao Yun treat her as a substitute?
Jin Yu had never hated Xiao Yun as much as he did today.
"I hate Xiao Yun." Jin Yu gritted his teeth and said this hatefully.
Shen Lan was stunned for a moment, then said without hesitation: "Since you hate him, then I hate him too. Anyway, we won't have much interaction in the future, so just treat him as a stranger."
Shen Lan agreed without hesitation, which made Jin Yu feel much more comfortable.
"Yes, we'll be strangers from now on. It's getting late, let's go to the restaurant. I'm starving."
Jin Yu wiped the tears from her face, forced a smile and prepared to leave with Shen Lan.
Before they had taken two steps, a group of people suddenly came over and pushed them back into the crowd.
"It's 45 minutes, the fireworks are about to start!"
With a "whoosh", a beautiful arc crossed the sky, exploding into a sea of fireworks in the twilight.
Shen Lan looked at the grand and gorgeous fireworks in the sky, his eyes full of amazement.
The second one, the third one...
Fireworks of various colors and styles bloomed in the night sky, so beautiful that it was dazzling.
Even Jin Yu, who kept shouting "I hate Xiao Yun", was amazed by the grand fireworks and had to admit that the fireworks were really beautiful.
I don’t know how long it took, but the fireworks finally ended.
Shen Lan watched the last firework finish setting off, and the repressed nostalgia in his heart finally dissipated.
She looked at the night sky, slowly put on a smile, her eyes sparkling, and whispered, "Shen Lan, happy birthday."
Everything in the past is over, and she is about to usher in a new self and a new life.
