"Why did you send me flowers all of a sudden?" Fang Ru asked strangely, looking at the bouquet of tulips in his hand.
"No reason." Yuan Che walked into the living room with a cool expression.
Fang Ru smelled the fragrance of the flowers and said with a smile, "Thank you, I like it very much."
He found a vase from the cabinet, inserted the tulips, and placed them on the dining table. With such a bouquet of purple tulips adorning the hall, it instantly became more lively. In the past, Yuan Che never paid attention to the quality of life, and the room was empty. It was not until Fang Ru came that things gradually changed.
The khaki fox pillows and brown lion pillows on the sofa, the red Chinese knots and decorative paintings on the walls, the crystal curtains in the living room, the purple wind chimes on the windows, and the cute woven fabrics in the lockers are basically all items that are not easy to break , most of which are brightly colored, making the cold room full and warm little by little.
Yuan Che watched him play with the bouquet with a smile, his eyes could not help being soft, he walked over and hugged his waist, and kissed him on the cheek.
Fang Ru also kissed back, and then pushed him into the room: "Hurry up and wash up, we'll be eating right away."
"Yes." Yuan Che obediently obeyed.
After dinner is Yuan Che's office hours, and Fang Ru usually doesn't bother. It's just that if the time is too long, they will send some supper and tell him to go to bed earlier.
In the few days when Yuan Che returned to the company, there were many things to deal with. Fang Ru waited too late and went to bed first. In the middle of the night, he dimly felt that someone was lying beside him, leaning head to head with him, intimately dependent on each other.
After lightly kissing him on the lips, Yuan Che whispered, "Good night."
Fang Ru moved subconsciously, and his whole body retracted into his arms.
The corners of Yuan Che's mouth raised slightly, he closed his eyes, and fell asleep contentedly.
The next day, after Yuan Che went to work, Fang Ru also went out fully dressed.
Today's destination is a welfare home in the third district. This is a relatively large public welfare organization in city a, mainly adopting orphans, abandoned babies, and disabled children. Fang Ru planned to visit this orphanage first.
Walking out of the community, a man leaning against a tree and reading a newspaper immediately followed him, and followed him on the bus to the third district.
Fang Ru didn't notice anything, just admiring the scenery outside the window.
When the bus arrived, Fang Ru got off and walked towards the orphanage.
The red walls and green tiles near the orphanage are shaded by green trees, and the environment is quite quiet. There are only a few pedestrians on the street, and Fang Ru can hear the children's laughter from a long distance away.
He smiled and quickened his pace. Walking into the orphanage, Fang Ru first went to the dean to explain his intentions and handed in his basic information. He did not go through the formal volunteer application process, but only hoped that the dean would allow him to come to the orphanage to help out in his spare time.
The dean readily agreed, and enthusiastically took him to visit the orphanage.
Passing by a classroom, Fang Ru saw a young female teacher playing games with a dozen children.
The dean introduced: "She is also a volunteer and has been here for more than half a year."
The game was just finished, and the children clapped their hands and laughed.
The dean waved at the female teacher: "Xiao Min, come and get to know him. This is Fang Ru. He may come to the orphanage to do volunteer work often in the future."
"Hello, my name is Sun Min." The female teacher held out her hand to Fang Ru.
Fang Ru gave her a friendly shake.
"You two chat first, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you."
"Dean, go and do your work, please, please go slowly."
After the dean left, Sun Min led Fang Ru into the classroom and asked, "Mr. Fang, what are your specialties?"
"I can play the piano, and I have also done tutoring for children before. Telling stories, playing games, and teaching are basically all right."
"That's great!" Sun Min laughed, "Volunteers with many talents are most welcome in the orphanage."
Just as he was talking, there was a sudden "bang" at the door. He turned his head and saw a man with a gloomy expression rushing into the classroom, quickly locked the door, and rushed towards Sun Min.
Everything happened so fast, and before Fang Ru could react, Sun Min was kidnapped by a man, and a sharp fruit knife was firmly pressed against her throat.
The children were frightened and screamed. Fang Ru protected them behind him and looked straight at the man who kidnapped Sun Min. At the age of twenty-seven or eight years old, his appearance is plain, and his eyes are full of hostility.
"Du Changfei, what do you want?" Sun Min shouted tremblingly.
Looks like someone I know. Fang Ru thought silently and did not act rashly.
"It's so noisy!" Du Changfei pointed his knife at the crying children huddled behind Fang Ru, and shouted angrily.
Fang Ru knelt down and comforted him: "Don't be afraid, uncle is playing games with you, I will let you move later, and you will move, if you are not told to move, you will stand quietly in place, listen to my command, and go smoothly. All the children who go out of the classroom will be rewarded, understand?"
"Understood." The children responded unevenly. Probably because of Fang Ru's gentle smile, although they were still a little scared, they were much quieter.
Only then did Fang Ru stand up and face the robbers.
"Don't come over, just stand there!" Du Changfei pointed at Fang Ru and shouted.
Fang Ru raised his hands and said cooperatively, "I won't move."
Glancing at the window from the corner of the eye, someone has already discovered the abnormality in this classroom. All he needs to do is buy time and keep everyone safe.
At the same time, the man who had been following Fang Ru was hiding in the corner, looking around and talking on the phone nervously.
"Du Changfei, what exactly do you want to do?" Sun Min asked in a tearful voice.
"Xiao Min, don't you know what I want to do?" Du Changfei said with a look of pain, "Tell me, why did you break up with me? I love you so much, why do you still want to leave me?"
"We're not suitable!" Sun Min replied, "You are short-tempered, idle, and beat and kicked me at every turn. How can I live with you like this?"
"I know I was wrong, can't I correct it?" Du Changfei confessed, "I can't lose you, please give me another chance."
"It's too late, I can't go back to you again."
Hearing this, Fang Ru secretly groaned, Sun Min's decisive attitude would definitely irritate Du Changfei.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Du Changfei waved a fruit knife and shouted wildly: "Why are you so unfeeling to me? Is there no room for redemption?"
"No, it's impossible for me to talk to you again!" Sun Min was also impatient, completely ignoring the current situation.
"Okay, okay!" Du Changfei's eyes were red, and with force, he cut a bloodstain on Sun Min's neck.
Sun Min let out a cry of pain, and a look of fear finally appeared on his face.
"Wait!" Fang Ru stopped, "You really don't want to know why Xiao Min left you?"
One of the principles of negotiation - calm.
"Why?" Du Changfei's attention was attracted by Fang Ru.
Fang Rudao: "Because Xiao Min already has a new boyfriend."
The second principle of negotiation - looking for a breakthrough.
"What? Who is it?"
"It's me." Fang Ru put one hand on his chest with a calm expression.
"What did you say?" Du Changfei said angrily with a hateful expression on his face, "How dare you rob a woman from me?"
"Why didn't I dare?" Fang Ru slowly walked a few steps towards him.
"Very good." Du Changfei roared frantically, "I'll kill you pair of dogs today."
"You are not in a hurry to kill us." Fang Ru continued to circle around, "Don't you want to know why Xiao Min chose to leave you and associate with me?"
"Why?" Du Changfei was gradually drawn by Fang Ru.
"Because I have a legitimate job, I am willing to take care of her for the rest of my life, and I have no less affection for her than you do." Fang Ru spoke slowly, delaying time as much as possible.
"You fart! Does anyone in this world love her more than me?"
"Really?" Fang Ru pointed to the bloodstain on Sun Min's neck and asked, "Is this the way you love her? Threatening her, hurting her, making her suffer?"
"I just don't want to lose her!" Du Changfei said viciously, "If I can't get her, neither can anyone else!"
"Your love is too decisive, don't you want to try to win back Xiao Min's heart?" The third principle of negotiation is to obtain as much information as possible from the other party.
"To win back Xiao Min's heart?" Du Changfei was taken aback.
"Yeah, don't you want to lose her? Loving someone is not just possession, but also needs to be given. What are you going to do for Xiao Min?"
"I, I..." Du Changfei's eyes flickered, hesitating.
"For example," Fang Ru said inducingly, "find a stable job?"
"Yes, I will find a stable job." Du Changfei said hastily.
"Or, get rid of previous bad habits."
"Yes, I will change. Xiao Min, I will never hit you again, never drink too much, and never gamble again."
"These are not enough." Fang Ru said again, "Do you have the confidence to take good care of her? Protect her from the wind and rain, work hard for her, reform her, and start a new life for her."
"me… "
"You hesitate." Fang Ru said firmly, "If you can't do this, what right do you have to ask Xiao Min to come back to you?"
Du Changfei blushed, and the hand holding the knife trembled slightly.
"Love is like gambling. If you don't even have the money to gamble, how can you win the gamble?" Fang Ru has obtained a lot of information about Du Changfei from the conversation just now. For a gambler, it is easier to understand using gambling as a metaphor .
Du Changfei's expression was in a trance, as if he was engaged in a fierce ideological struggle.
Fang Ru took a few steps closer to him, and said in a gentle voice: "Du Changfei, you should leave a way out for yourself in everything you do. Today you plan to have a good time, but you won't even have the chance to regret it in the future. This is really you Want it?"
Du Changfei's eyes were red and he was short of breath.
"I have a proposal, do you want to listen to it?" The fourth principle of negotiation is to guide the other party to make the choice they want.
"Say it!" Du Changfei shouted in a rough voice. He has been hesitant by Fang Ru's words now, and he has no master.
"Use three years to prove yourself." Fang Ru said slowly, "When you really reform yourself, you will pursue Xiao Min again."
"Three years?"
"That's right, you and Xiao Min are still young, and three years will pass quickly." Fang Ru smiled, "I'm willing to wait for three years, too, to give you time to compete with me in an upright manner. Du Changfei, how dare you Bet?"
Du Changfei's eyes lit up with surprise, and he said loudly, "Dare! I'm not even afraid of death, so why not dare?"
"Okay, let's shake hands and make an agreement." Fang Ru stretched out his right hand towards him.
Du Changfei hesitated for a moment, but finally let go of Sun Min, handed the knife to his left hand, and shook it with Fang Ru.
Fang Ru did not relax his vigilance until Du Changfei agreed to open the classroom door and let the children leave.
A few of them walked out of the building, and they were greeted by the policemen waiting in formation and Yuan Che with a stern expression.
Fang Ru secretly yelled "No", he came to the orphanage without telling Yuan Che, and planned to tell him after he was sure, but he didn't want to run into trouble before it even started.
Yuan Che is probably thinking about how to teach him a lesson...
