Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

Chapter 264 Be a Kind Person

When Wen Nachuan thought about how he bullied Yu Ru in the past, he felt that he might have been mentally ill when he was a child. What he thought in his mind was really beyond the imagination of ordinary people. If he knew that Yu Ru was at the Yun family today, he would definitely not follow Shi Yanchun and Wen Zhuomo here. It really made him feel ashamed.

As soon as he got close to Yu Ru, the past came flooding back to him. He tried hard not to think about it, but he was simply unable to get rid of it. He didn't even hear Shi Yanchun and Wen Zhuomo calling him.

"Ogawa, Ogawa."

"Xiaochuan, what are you thinking about so intently?" Wen Zhuomo reached out and patted Wen Nachuan's shoulders. He came back to his senses and asked, "What's the matter, Grandpa?"

"You and Xiaoru haven't seen each other for so long. After all, you studied together when you were young and lived under the same roof. Now that you've met again after such a long separation, don't you have anything to say to her?"

"I..." Wen Nachuan looked at Yu Ru, and when they met his eyes, he opened his eyes subconsciously. Yu Ru looked at him openly. Wen Nachuan had changed a lot since he was a child. If Wen Zhuomo and Shi Yanchun hadn't been with him, she might not have recognized him. He had a straight nose and short hair, as clean as a newly ground ink stick. He looked like an elegant young man, very different from his naughty appearance when he was a child.

Wen Zhuomo looked at him, his expression showing regret for not being able to make up for his shortcomings. He sighed, then gently reminded him, "If you don't know what to say, just apologize. Xiaochuan, Xiaoru also contributed to your current status. If she hadn't kept you under control in our house when you were a child, you might be a wild and dissolute person now."

"Yes..." Wen Nachuan responded, as if he had made a big decision. He looked up at Yu Ru and said, "Yu Ru, I'm sorry. In the past... the things I did and the words I said to you were really too much. At that time... my heart was twisted, and I didn't think before I spoke or did anything. I hope you don't take it to heart."

Yu Ru nodded calmly.

Seeing her so calm, Wen Nachuan didn't know how to react. He subconsciously turned his head to see the reactions of Wen Zhuomo and Shi Yanchun. The two old men seemed dissatisfied with his apology and looked a little serious.

"Xiaochuan, this is not how you apologize. If you are hurt, can you not feel sad about it and not think about it? Can you just laugh it off? If you have done something to hurt others, you should not persuade them to forget it, but make actual compensation." Wen Zhuomo said slowly.

Wen Nachuan was stunned, "Yes...Grandpa." He looked at Yu Ru again, his mouth moved slightly, but he didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Yu Ruchao gestured to Wen Zhuomo and Shi Yanchun, "Grandpa Wen, Grandma Shi, it's okay. I don't want to think about my childhood anymore. You guys can chat first. It's time for me to take my medicine. I'm going back to my own yard."

"Well, okay then. Xiaoru, let's get together later." Shi Yanchun held Yu Ru's hand reluctantly.

Yu Ru nodded and stood up.

At this time, there was a steady and powerful sound of horse hooves hitting the ground not far away, and several people looked up at the same time. The person coming over was Yun Jixing, who was riding on a white horse and galloping towards them.

Yun Jixing walked up to them, jumped off his horse and said hello to Wen Zhuomo, Shi Yanchun and Wen Nachuan, then took Yu Ru's hand and prepared to leave. "Grandpa Wen, Grandma Shi, it's time for A Ru to take her medicine. I'll take her back to rest. You can chat later. Grandpa and grandma have arranged afternoon tea for you and will bring it over later."

"Oh, okay, you guys go ahead." Wen Zhuomo replied.

Yun Jixing held Yu Ru in one hand and the reins in the other, and walked for a distance with the man and the horse. After they passed through a moon-shaped gate, he pulled Yu Ru to the side and hid behind the wall of the moon-shaped gate.

He released the hand holding the reins, put his hands on Yu Ru's waist, and said, "Aru, I'll carry you on the horse, and we'll ride back together."

Yu Ru looked down at his hands and gestured, "How are you going to carry me up? The horse is so high."

"I'll just lift you up, and you can just step over. You're so thin, it's no problem to hold two of you. Don't be afraid, this horse is much more stable than Fulai, and it won't move around." Yun Jixing said with a smile, "Come on, get on the horse."

Yun Jixing put his hands on Yu Ru's waist, one on each side, and lifted her up as soon as he finished speaking. Yu Ru suddenly felt her feet leave the ground, as if she was flying. She subconsciously spread her legs and sat on the horse steadily.

"Aru, you hold the reins first, I'll get on too." Yun Jixing supported his hands on the horse's back, stood still, and jumped up without stepping on the stirrups. In an instant, the corner of his robe brought up a gust of wind, the horse's mane trembled slightly, and he was already sitting firmly on the horse's back.

Yu Ru felt like she fell into a warm embrace and subconsciously leaned in. Yun Jixing looked at her with a smile on his face, and couldn't help but kiss her head. Of course, Yu Ru's hair was combed high, so he couldn't kiss her head, but only her hair. "Aru, let's go."

Yu Ru looked straight ahead and nodded.

After walking a short distance, Yun Jixing looked around and confirmed that no one was nearby. He approached Yu Ru and whispered in her ear: "Aru, when you were little, did Wen Nachuan bully you?"

Yu Ru turned her head to look at him, asking with her eyes why he felt that way.

"My family has known the Wen family for a long time. I met Wen Nachuan many times when I was a child. He gave people a very arrogant feeling when he was a child. He liked to lean back when sitting on a chair and looked at people with his nose when standing. He seemed to be the only one in the world. So, when you were studying in the Wen family as a child, someone said something bad to you. That person must be Wen Nachuan. Ah Ru, I will help you teach him a lesson. He works in the system now. How about I trip him up and tease him a little?"

Yu Ru shook her head, "He is Grandpa Wen's grandson, and he hasn't caused me any substantial harm, so forget it. It's okay, there's no need to waste time on him, we have more important things to do."

……

They didn't go too far away, and the horses didn't run, but walked slowly, so Wen Zhuomo and the others could still see them. Wen Nachuan stared at their backs as they left, and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Wen Zhuomo turned his head and looked at him, smiled, and said, "Xiaochuan, Xiaoyuan and Xiaoru are very good-looking, but you don't have to keep staring at them like this, right? You're still staring at them even after they've left."

"Yes...Grandpa." After hearing this, Wen Nachuan immediately shifted his gaze.

"Xiaochuan, what's the matter? Xiaoru has changed a lot now, and has become a fairy. Are you in love with her at first sight? I tell you, Xiaoru and Xiaoyuan are a loving couple now, so don't think about those nonsense." Shi Yanchun suddenly lowered his voice and teased.

Wen Nachuan suddenly raised his eyes and looked at his grandmother in surprise. She was smiling and teasing him. He responded dissatisfiedly: "Grandma, what are you talking about? There are not so many love at first sight. You have watched too many TV dramas. Besides, I am not so morally corrupt that I like other people's wives."

Shi Yanchun looked peaceful and calm, with a faint smile on his lips. As if he saw through him, he stared at him without blinking, "That's great. Xiaochuan, don't be so impatient. Appearance is the last thing to consider in marriage and love. The first thing to consider is a person's character and whether he or she can get along with you. Don't always stare at those beautiful girls who look like superstars. That's enough. Where are there so many beauties? You are not a child anymore. Hurry up and bring a girlfriend back for us to meet."

"Grandma, you're exaggerating. I'm still young, okay? I just looked at her a few more times. Why are you talking about urging me to get married?"

"How can I not worry?" Wen Zhuomo sighed, his face full of sorrow. "None of the girls we found for you worked out. You don't like this one, you don't like that one. What kind of girl do you like? Xiaochuan, there is a problem that we have been talking about since you were a child. That is, you can't be too arrogant, understand? No matter who you are facing, no matter whether he is really ignorant, you should not show arrogance. Never forget to be a kind person and treat everyone you meet kindly."

"Look, Xiaoru is a good example. You are not familiar with her, but you have watched her grow up, right? None of you thought highly of her as a rural kid more than a decade ago, but now things are completely different. At her age, how many people are more capable than her? If I hadn't helped her out of kindness, and she later felt grateful for my kindness, the grass on my grave would probably be three feet high. Don't feel sorry for the past, and don't be jealous of anyone. Just remember to be a kind person from now on. You are the best. Be kind to others and to yourself, and everything will be fine. The most important thing is that this way, people will find it difficult to find fault with you and leave no handle."

"I know, Grandpa."
