Chapter 268 Liang Can's Confession
Chapter 268 Liang Can's Confession
At the magnificent gate of the manor, Gu Ranle saw Liang Can at a glance.
Liang Can was seen wearing a slightly formal outfit. His previously iconic green hair had been dyed a calm black and had been cut much shorter.
The row of ostentatious earrings on her ears was also gone.
This change instantly made him exude the unique temperament of a business elite.
Compared with the image of the street thug in Gu Ranle's memory, this is completely different, like two different people.
"Gu Ranle!"
Liang Can saw her at a glance and immediately walked up to her quickly.
Gu Ranle got off the security captain's electric scooter and started apologizing: "I'm sorry, Liang Can, I had an appointment with you to go to the concert together--"
"Your grandfather called me this afternoon and said you were sick and had a fever. How do you feel now? Are you feeling better?"
Liang Can didn't even wait for Gu Ranle to finish her apology before interrupting her with a concerned look on her face, her eyes full of worry.
Gu Ranle's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, "Much better now, the fever has subsided. I'm so sorry to have you make a special trip so late at night."
"I wanted to come earlier, but my friend insisted on having dinner with me, so I got late. Oh, by the way, I bought you some food. I don't know what you like, so I just picked some at random. Don't mind if you don't like it."
As Liang Can spoke, he walked to the car, opened the door, and took out a large bag containing several lunch boxes.
He handed the bag to Gu Ranle a little nervously, looking like a child who was afraid of doing something wrong.
"I haven't had dinner yet. Thank you so much."
Gu Ranle took the bag with both hands. It was so heavy that her hands felt a little sore.
She felt a little guilty, so she invited him warmly, "How about you eat something with us?"
Liang Can's eyes lit up instantly, full of anticipation, and it was obvious that he wanted to eat together. But he was afraid that he would be too proactive and make Gu Ranle disgusted.
So he asked carefully, "Is it really okay? It's so late, will it disturb you?"
"You're not the only one disturbing others." Gu Ranle said meaningfully, then turned around and asked the security captain to drive the car.
After a while, the security team leader drove over in a sightseeing car, and Gu Ranle and Liang Can got in the car together.
Tonight's moonlight sprinkles softly on the earth, as if the entire manor has been carefully covered with a layer of dreamy silver gauze, hazy and beautiful, so beautiful that it takes your breath away.
The sightseeing bus was driving slowly.
Liang Can sat in the car, looking around constantly, trying to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the manor.
But he was always preoccupied with something, as if a kitten was scratching him, and he couldn't calm down and appreciate it.
Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Gu Ranle, how big is your house?"
Asking this is just a test.
Deep down in his heart, he still hoped that Gu Ranle was just a housekeeper or someone else's child, rather than the granddaughter of the manor owner.
Gu Ranle shook her head slightly and said with a smile: "I'm not sure about the exact area, you'll have to ask my grandfather. But the outer courtyard is bigger, the inner courtyard where my grandfather and I live is not that exaggerated."
When Liang Can heard this, his eyes instantly widened like bells, "So, your grandfather is really the owner of this manor?"
Gu Ranle was amused by his appearance. "What's the use of manor owner or not? It sounds like the landlords in ancient times."
Liang Can licked his lips subconsciously, his expression tense, "So, this is really your home? This whole estate belongs to you?"
"Yes, this is my home. Didn't I tell you before? I remember I gave you my home address."
"..."
Liang Can instantly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.
He was so depressed and felt that there was no hope for him at all.
No, it should be said that there is not even a shred of hope left.
He knew himself too well. Compared with Gu Ranle, his character and family conditions were completely different and they were not a good match at all.
Ugh!
His little flame of love didn't even have a chance to ignite before it was completely extinguished.
"Liang Can, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Ranle noticed that Liang Can's face looked a little strange, so she hurriedly asked in a low voice, her eyes full of concern.
Liang Can looked at her slowly, opened his mouth, but hesitated again.
However, after just a moment, he gritted his teeth and decided to try again.
"Gu Ranle, do you have a boyfriend?"
When Gu Ranle heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly, with a teasing smile on his lips, and asked: "Why? You want to pursue me?"
Liang Can's face turned red like a monkey's butt in an instant.
He looked shy and scratched his head awkwardly, his voice was a little nervous: "Is it okay?"
Before Gu Ranle could answer, he continued, "I know that in terms of family, my family is definitely not as good as yours. In terms of personal ability, I also feel that I am not as good as you. But I will work hard! When I was in college, I did not rely on my family. I started a game company with a few classmates. The scale of the company is not large, but it has been doing well in the past few years. Although I can't say that I am worth hundreds of millions now, I have tens of millions. These are all earned by my own hard work, and I didn't rely on my family for a penny."
Gu Ranle had never been confessed to like this before, especially by someone of the same age.
She looked at Liang Can's serious and nervous expression, and she didn't find it funny at all. Instead, she felt touched.
Whether in the real world or in the world of books, the men around her are either mature, wealthy and powerful men like Fu Hanting and Li Shenzhi, or workers like A Lu who only treat her as their boss and are respectful to her.
No one had ever confessed to her like Liang Can did, showing himself to her so seriously and nervously without reservation.
This was a completely new and special experience for her.
Gu Ranle looked at Liang Can quietly, with a hint of tenderness in her eyes.
Liang Can felt a little embarrassed by her gaze. He lowered his head slightly and rubbed the corners of his clothes unconsciously with his hands.
"In fact, I also know that I still have many shortcomings, but I am willing to change for you and become better."
Liang Can mustered up the courage to speak again. Although his voice was not loud, it was full of determination.
Gu Ranle couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart when she heard his words.
This boy who was a little shy but hardworking in front of her seemed different from the people she had known before and gave her a different feeling.
