"Qian Qian, this is your birthday present. Happy Birthday."
Gu Qian was really frightened. This was only the third time they had met, but Deng Rulin had already prepared a birthday present for Gu Qian and had intentionally given it to her on their birthday.
"This... Thank you for your kind intentions, Mr. Deng, but I cannot accept this gift. "
Gu Qian didn't dare to accept Deng Rulin's gift. If the gift inside the box was very valuable, how could she accept it?
Deng Rulin seemed to have already predicted that Gu Qian would reject his gift. He calmly smiled and asked Gu Qian, "Qian Chao, do you really not remember me?"
What kind of plot was this? Gu Qian was confused. According to Deng Rulin's words, he had known him in the past?
"Mr. Deng, what do you mean by that …?" Have we met before? " Gu Qian's mind raced, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
Deng Rulin chuckled. He was not the least bit dissatisfied with Gu Qian's forgetfulness. "No wonder you forgot. After all, this happened ten-odd years ago."
This time, Gu Danian was even more confused. Gu Xi Nian was right, she was becoming more and more stupid!
"More than ten years ago? "Sorry, I really can't remember …" Gu Qian could only apologize to Deng Rulin.
"Do you remember when we were in the fifth grade, one of your chubby boys sat at the same table, and then transferred to another school and left?"
"I remember that, but I've forgotten his name. He used to bring me snacks to eat... " Gu Qian embarrassedly touched his head.
"That little fatty is me!" Deng Rulin suddenly became agitated. In front of Gu Qian, he had a refined and calm appearance.
However, no matter how she looked at him, she couldn't connect that little fatty, who had a huge appetite and was filled with books and snacks back then, with this handsome man in front of her.
"You … Is it really Little Fatty? " Because he was too obese, his classmates at that time called him "Little Fatty".
"If it really was me, would I still speak nonsense about this? It's just that I didn't expect you to not come to school for a period of time. After that, my parents moved to a different place due to a job transfer, so I could only follow them and transfer to another school … "I didn't even have the chance to say goodbye to you …"
Deng Rulin couldn't tell what kind of feelings he had towards Gu Qian back then. He had a deep friendship between children, and perhaps he simply liked them.
When others mocked him for being fat, Gu Qian would always be the first one to stand up for him and criticize him for being wrong.
She would also comfort him, saying that he shouldn't take other people's words and looks too seriously. It was fine to be himself, and everyone could lead a different life.
Gu Qian's good-looking and earnest face had left a deep impression on Deng Rulin at that time. It had also left an indelible mark on his young heart.
Gu Qian was silent for a few seconds after hearing Deng Rulin's words, and his face darkened.
Deng Rulin noticed that something was wrong with Gu Qian and thought that her words were making her uncomfortable. He quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Gu Qian pursed his lips, his expression bleak. "At that time, I didn't come to school because my parents died in an accident …"
During their previous conversation, Deng Rulin already knew about Gu Qian's family's situation. However, he didn't expect that it was precisely before he transferred that such a big change happened to Gu Qing's family.
His eyes were filled with deep regret. Suddenly, the regret that he didn't have the time to bid farewell to Gu Qian was relieved in his heart. "Qian Qian. I'm sorry that I brought up your sore spot."
"It's fine, you don't know either. I'm pretty happy, I didn't expect you to be that Little Fatty. " Gu Qian shook his head and smiled at Deng Rulin, "I heard that your memory is quite good. Even after so many years have passed, you still remember it so clearly." "Speaking of which, did you recognize me at the Dovan new product launch?"
"At first, when I saw that you were unsure, I observed for a while before deciding to talk to you. To be honest, I didn't confirm it was you until I talked to you. Especially after I got your name card, I was even more certain that it was you. "
"No wonder! "In the end, you even asked me for my name card. I even thought you had the ability to predict the future and was certain that I would look for you again, but it turns out that it was just to confirm my guess …"
"Hahahaha, I never would have thought that this would be the reason." Deng Rulin laughed out loud, revealing rows of white teeth. His brows were relaxed and at this moment, he was very happy. He was finally able to reveal the things that had been hidden deep within his heart for many years and recognize her.
"Therefore, don't call me Mister Deng like that. In private, just call me Little Fatty."
"This, isn't too suitable, right …" Shouting "Little Fatty" to a man with a normal figure was too weird.
"It's nothing. I don't really care about this nickname anymore. On the contrary, I miss someone who can call me that." "If there are outsiders here, then just call me Brother Lin, that's what they call me."
Gu Qian nodded. She had said she could accept the title 'Brother Lin'.
"However, you are truly amazing. You have lost so much weight at one go. Otherwise, it would be impossible for me to not recognize you." "It must be hard to lose weight …" Gu Qian admired the perseverance of these people.
"It's still okay …" When Fatty reached junior high school, he was always called Fatty by others. From Fatty to Fatty, he was treated with all sorts of ways to be despised. As I grew older, my self-esteem became especially strong. Realizing that it was impossible to continue being fat, I began to control my diet and stopped eating snacks. "In the past, it wasn't that particular. It was just running and doing sit-ups every day. After graduating from high school, they started taking regular baths in the gym and gradually became thinner, staying until now."
It was simply a weight-loss reward. Gu Qian felt that Deng Rulin could come up with a textbook on how to lose weight.
"He's really amazing. He's been strictly managing himself for so many years. It's really amazing that you're here as a broker. " Even now, Gu Qian still did not dare to believe that the little fatty who once sat at the same table as him had actually become his agent.
"It's also a coincidence. Before graduation, he was in this company during his internship. Then slowly, he became more familiar with the industry and became interested in it. That's why he became a broker." Deng Rulin's slender hands were casually placed on the desk as he replied to Gu Qian's words without hesitation.
Suddenly, he changed the subject, "So, you accept my gift now? For so many years, if only I had one wish, then I wouldn't have any regrets. "
