Chapter 311: Surname Wen
"No need. I've been living in your house and eating your supplies for the past six months. Didn't you ask me for rent and food expenses? Why should we talk about rent when you come to live with me?" Dai Tong said nonchalantly.
Liu Yuanyuan thought about it and felt that it was true, so she didn't bring up the matter any more.
Soon after, the security guard went to the restroom and saw Liu Yuanyuan. The first thing he said was, "Is your classmate the new girl who transferred to your class?"
Liu Yuanyuan looked at the security guard strangely, then looked out the window and found that Lu Meichen was nowhere to be seen.
The security guard sighed, walked over to the desk by the window, opened the drawer, rummaged around, and pulled out a bunch of keys. He said, "You two can stay at my house. I usually live here, and that house is always empty. Don't run around. It's not safe for two girls."
Finally, Liu Yuanyuan couldn't help but ask curiously, "Uncle, why are you staying at school alone during the New Year?"
The security guard paused as he closed the drawer, sighed, and said, "I'm alone at home, so why not stay there? Here I can have a drink and chat with some old folks from the village. Isn't it much more comfortable than staying alone in that empty house?"
"Then you don't have a wife and children?" Liu Yuanyuan asked in confusion.
As soon as he asked this question, the guard's gaze became distant and sad, as if he was reminiscing about the past. Then he sighed deeply, "It used to be there, but now it's gone. That's why I don't want to go back. The sight brings back memories. I don't want to sell the house either, so I'll just leave it there. When I can't work here anymore, I'll move back in."
Liu Yuanyuan knew the security guard just didn't want to talk about it, so she didn't ask any more questions. She said to the security guard, "No, I won't be staying there anymore. I've already agreed to live with my friend. He has an empty house there. He doesn't usually live there, so it's a good opportunity for me to go over and clean up for him this time."
The security guard nodded and didn't force it. "Fine. As long as you have somewhere to go, it's fine. But before you leave, you have to leave me an address and a contact number. After all, you're leaving from me, and I have to be responsible for you."
After hearing what the security guard said, Liu Yuanyuan subconsciously looked at Dai Tong. After all, she didn't know the specific address of Tang Ziji's private apartment.
Dai Tong noticed that she was looking at herself, so she meowed helplessly twice and told Liu Yuanyuan the detailed address.
Liu Yuanyuan quickly told the security guard, who took out his glasses and wrote it down on a piece of paper. Then he smiled and said to Liu Yuanyuan, "Alright, it's no big deal. From now on, it's all your world, young people. Sometimes we old-fashioned people can't keep up with your ideas."
We often dream of returning to our roots, of having children and grandchildren, and of being with our families. But you young people have a much wider world to explore and try. The future is yours, and I believe in your choices. I believe your family will understand them in the end.
Liu Yuanyuan's eyes suddenly turned red. She felt that the security guard really understood them and gave her a lot of support.
"Uncle, I've always been curious about what you do. I have a feeling you're more than just a security guard. I think with your level, being just a security guard is a bit of a waste of your talent."
The gatekeeper smiled and waved his hand. "A man of honor never brags about his past achievements. I used to be a teacher at this school. Now that I'm retired, I've got nothing to do. It's too quiet at home, and I'll get sick if I keep doing it. So, I applied to be the gatekeeper here. Seeing you energetic kids every day makes me feel younger, more energetic, and more spirited. So, it's not a waste of my talent. I did it on my own initiative."
Liu Yuanyuan was a little surprised. This was something she had never expected. So she asked a little embarrassedly, "Teacher, what's your last name? I always call you uncle, but you should be as old as my grandfather. Now that I think about it, it feels a bit rude."
The security guard laughed and waved his hand, saying nonchalantly, "It's okay, just call me uncle. This makes me look a lot younger than your grandfather. But you can call me whatever you want. My last name is Wen."
Liu Yuanyuan was visibly stunned. The surname Wen was somewhat uncommon, and she felt like she had heard it before. She couldn't remember it for a moment.
Just as she was wondering, a black Porsche pulled up at the school gate. Soon, Lu Meichen jumped out, carrying a schoolbag and a small bag. She walked to the reception desk and knocked on the window. Lu Mingle followed behind her.
Liu Yuanyuan looked out the window, her eyes first landing on Lu Meichen, then seeing Lu Mingle behind her. She was startled and instantly became nervous. She hadn't expected that it was her eldest brother who had personally brought Lu Meichen here.
Lu Meichen waved at him with a happy smile, and Liu Yuanyuan hurriedly stood up, put the teacup she had just picked up back on the stove, opened the door and left the message room.
She looked at Lu Mingle with an embarrassed expression and said, "Why are you here?"
Lu Mingle just smiled and said, "Have you prepared the place to live? If not, you can stay at my place."
Lu Meichen automatically stood next to Liu Yuanyuan but did not agree with her elder brother's proposal.
Liu Yuanyuan forced a smile and said, "No need, big brother. I've contacted a friend and I'm going to borrow his house to live in. He doesn't usually live there anyway."
Lu Mingle just nodded and didn't force it: "Okay, go get the things."
Liu Yuanyuan pursed her lips and nodded, then hurried back to the message room to pick up her bags.
As a result, when Liu Yuanyuan picked up the bag, he took the lead and dove into the bag with a meow. He was sending a message to his colleague to tell him that he didn't need to come to pick him up. Liu Yuanyuan didn't care about him now. She quickly zipped up the bag and put it on her back. She picked up the other bags and called Lie Qing, then bowed to the security guard and said, "I'm leaving."
The security guard smiled, stood up and walked her out the door.
Lu Mingle smoothly stepped forward and took the large and small bags from Liu Yuanyuan's hands, then bowed to the security guard with a smile on his face and said, "Thank you for your help, teacher."
The security guard smiled and waved his hand, signaling them to go back.
Liu Yuanyuan was very surprised. After getting in the car, even though she felt a little embarrassed, she couldn't help but ask, "Do you know me?"
Lu Mingle didn't turn around. Instead, after starting the car, he spoke, "I knew him. He taught my senior year. But it seems like after that, he went to the Education Bureau."
After hearing what Lu Mingle said, Liu Yuanyuan instantly remembered where he had heard the surname Wen.
