Chapter 69: For Mr. Wang

Promise looked at him suspiciously, as if he was a little unconvinced. And in order to win the trust of her, he still put on a professional posture.

"This ...... What's your grandmother's name?"

Promise slowly spat out three words. As a result, when her voice fell, the doctor's eyes widened in shock. He quickly changed his complexion, changed his words a little embarrassedly, and excused himself that the ward was gone.

And the promise is that the promise is not a problem with the money, but it is all useless. She wanted to say something more, but she was forced out of the hospital.

She scolded angrily, but in the end she was helpless. Decided to try the next one, and before that, she withdrew all the money from the bank, and then threw all the cash in front of the doctor to see if he would agree?

It's just that when she promised to enter the next hospital, as long as she reported her name or her grandmother's name, she was rejected without exception.

She lowered her body and begged all sorts of people, but everyone seemed to have unified their confessions overnight. I just won't let go.

At this time, she walked out of a hospital again in despair, and it was already evening. She's been running around for a good afternoon. Just then, a phone call came in. She looked down and saw that it was Xu Lan! It seemed that in an instant, all the strange phenomena made sense. She quickly answered her call.

The first thing I heard was her extremely proud voice.

"Haha. Promise, what you do is useless!"

"What the hell do you want to do!" she replied through gritted teeth.

And Xu Lan, who is at the end, is enjoying her misfortune at this time.

"It's Dad who misses you, he wants you to go home! Why, now have you made up your mind?"

"Good. ”

Until he promised to use all his strength to squeeze the word out of his teeth, the other party immediately cut off the phone. All that remained in her ears was the busy sound of a beep. At this time, she was completely intrigued, and she wanted to see what their purpose was!

Xu promised to easily take a taxi, deposit the money back to the bank, and then continue to set off for Xu's house. Sitting in the car, she stared blankly at the sky through the car window, her wet eyes reflecting the entire blue sky. The white clouds are long, and the sound of the wind is whistling in my ears. This kept her in deep thought.

The punctual taxi, the driver who reported the news, and the shirk of various doctors, such a link and a ring, Xu Lan alone could not do it, it could only be said to be the masterpiece of Xu's father or Xu's mother. It's just that she really can't figure out their intentions.

No, I saw her slowly close her eyes, and the soft wind brushed on her cheeks, making her itch, and she wrinkled her nose unconsciously. I thought to myself, I could only take one step at a time.

Soon, the taxi stopped in front of a mansion. She pushed the door and got out of the car, the familiar scene was reflected in her eyes again, and the memories of her childhood were suddenly evoked again. It adds a shadow to this villa that is bathed in warm sunlight. After many years, she is finally back.

"Ding Dong—" The crisp doorbell rang, but she couldn't help but shudder. The yard, which couldn't have been more familiar, wasn't as big as she had imagined. She remembered in a trance that she used to look at this huge courtyard, and thought that she was a hell that she could not get out of for the rest of her life.

Returning to his hometown is an uncontrollable emotion.

Soon, there was the sound of the lock being opened, apparently someone had come to open the door.

And the promise outside the door quickly withdrew his nostalgic gaze, and replaced it with the same indifferent face as always, trying to make himself look less vulnerable in front of the family.

In an instant, the door slowly opened, revealing the scene inside. The gap is getting bigger and bigger, but what catches her eye is a woman with a raw face.

Seeing this, Xu Xu was slightly surprised. She raised an eyebrow, as if thinking about something.

And when the woman saw the same promise, she didn't feel that her mouth opened slightly. But soon, he regained his calm appearance, and even appeared kind. She quietly pulled out a small smile and asked who the promise was.

It is a very common word, but it is a difficult question to answer for promises. After all, whether she is a guest or a member of this family, even she can't figure it out.

No, she had to be sloppy.

"I'm looking for Xu Lan, is she there?" she deliberately changed the subject.

And just as the two were talking, the people inside seemed to notice something, and saw a slender woman figure walking towards the door.

A swaggering mean face was displayed in the sun, and the person who came was seen holding his chin high, which was unstoppable.

"Mother Zhang, you can go back when you're done with your work, what are you doing blocking the door-" I only heard the woman's voice full of unhappiness, but it had a bit of the owner's appearance.

As soon as the words fell, Xu Yu glanced at the woman on the side, and then noticed the apron around her body, and his heart was clear. It turned out to be a newly hired part-time worker.

"Oh, Miss Xu Lan, this young lady is looking for you-" When Mama Zhang saw the graceful Xu Lan, she looked at her twice, and sighed from time to time, with a flattering look.

Because the promised posture was completely blocked by Zhang's mother, Xu Lan couldn't see the person coming outside the door. She tried to look at it from a different angle, and at this time, Zhang's mother seemed to notice something and turned sideways. In this way, the whole person who made the promise came into her eyes. I saw a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.

Then, she posed as a young lady. As everyone knows, she is no longer qualified to do this at this time.

"Yo, who should I be—it's you—"

When Mother Zhang saw that Xu Lan actually knew the ordinarily dressed woman outside the door, she couldn't help but take a few more looks.

And the promise outside the door has not made a wave until now, and the calm appearance is reminiscent of the ocean. Seeing this, Xu Lan pursed her lips unconsciously and tiredly.

At this time, Zhang's mother had already packed her things, bypassed the promise and walked out of the door.

"What, what are you doing outside the door, don't you come in quickly?" Xu Yu looked at the direction where Zhang's mother left for a few seconds, but Xu Lan's joking voice sounded in her ears, "How does it feel to revisit the old place?"

Promise didn't answer her question, and went through the door without looking, and walked slowly through it. Just when Xu Lan thought that she regarded herself as air and was about to scold, Xu Yue stopped beside her. Xu Lan looked at her suspiciously, and the mockery in her stomach was swallowed back.

All of a sudden, the eyes met, and the air was filled with inexplicable hostility. And the promise opened his mouth disapprehantly.

"My room is still there. Her tone was questioning, but her tone was full of affirmation.

Xu Lan frowned slightly, as if she was searching for her intentions, but finally nodded hesitantly. At this point, her expression must have been exaggerated to the extreme. She didn't expect Xu Xu to really regard herself as her master.

Just as she was confused by the promise's words, the promise had already found her room with ease. It was a small attic. Although the Xu family bought a villa and had corresponding guest rooms, Xu was never allowed to spend the night there, and could only survive in a dark attic.

Even though there is a light in the attic, it always breaks down at every turn. So he promised to spend one-third of his days in the attic in endless darkness.

Just when she thought it was in ruins, she stooped down and climbed into the attic. Surprisingly, the place was very tidy, apparently thanks to the cleaning aunt, although it was still deserted without a touch of humanity.

She looked around with satisfaction, and looked out of the small window in the attic, as she used to do, and easily saw the blue sky and unknown birds.

To be honest, in those dark days, the sky was her only sustenance. She believed that her mother, who had died young, would have quietly watched her somewhere in the sky, even though her obsession was not as deep now as it was when she was a child.

It's just that she came in a hurry and didn't bring any luggage at all. So there was nothing to pack, and after reliving the past, she came down from the attic early.

Coincidentally, Xu Lan was hesitating at the top of the stairs whether to go up to the attic to find her. Now that she saw the figure of the promise, she was naturally relieved. Then she crossed her hands on her hips and smiled defiantly at Promise.

"Sure enough, illegitimate daughters like to live in this kind of place—"

Hearing this, Xu Promise raised his eyebrows in surprise, and was about to speak, but found the familiar figure that appeared at the end of the corridor. She keenly felt that it was Xu's mother, so she shut up and endured her temper and ignored Xu Lan, who was causing trouble. Although she was reluctant to argue with Xu Lan more, Xu Lan was not aware of this, and when she saw that she did not speak, she became more and more proud.

She said ugly things on her lips, and she didn't even feel the movement of her hands. Xu Yue's cold face became more and more unsightly, and she didn't want to worry more about Xu Lan, a big-chested and brainless woman, and tried to leave. It's just that when she just wanted to take a step, Xu Lan quickly reacted. She quickly grabbed the promised arm.

Xu Promise seemed to have no idea that she would make such a move, and shook off her hand in disgust. I could only see that clear red marks had appeared on her fair skin. And Xu Lan didn't seem to expect that her skin would be blown like this, and in an instant, the jealousy that had accumulated for a long time exploded. Reluctantly, she reached out again and tugged at the promise to turn away.

"What are you doing!" Promise finally roared in a rage that she couldn't hold back.

At this time, Mother Xu walked up to the two of them. She saw the two people who were entangled early, and at this time, seeing that her daughter would pull others so disregarding her image, she quickly separated the two people. Then, she hurriedly glanced at Xu Lan, who had an indignant face, and warned her not to let her popularity go, otherwise her efforts would be wasted.

was reminded by Xu's mother like this, Xu Lan quickly reacted and pulled her hand back.

And Xu Yu on the side looked at the mother and daughter who were enemies, and felt a little dazzling, and suddenly had the idea of running away.

"Auntie, if there's nothing to do, I'll go first—" I heard her reply in a low voice.

As soon as she finished speaking, she took a few steps back impatiently, and then turned a corner.

By this time night had fallen, and Promise felt a little depressed, so he opened the door and planned to go out for a walk. But she suddenly remembered something and glanced at her watch. Even though it was still early to go to work, she didn't want to stay in a place full of horrific memories for long, especially at night.

So, she took a taxi and ran all the way to Wen Yan's bar.

And when she hurried into the room, she was surprised to find everyone gathered together, not knowing what they were talking about. Perhaps because she was ostracized by the Xu family, she easily wanted to fit into the group and find a sense of security.

"Hey, who the hell do you think our bar owner is—" Someone quietly lowered his voice and raised the topic.

But when he heard this promise, he was a little surprised.

"Haven't you all met the boss?" she lowered her voice, too, following the words of her predecessors.

The others looked left and right, and they all shook their heads in confusion. And at this moment, Wen Yan also came over curiously, he didn't participate in the topic, just listened quietly on the side.

Although he had previously revealed to Promise that he was the owner of the bar, Promise always thought he was telling a joke. After all, she really doesn't look like a scheming businessman. At this moment, she couldn't help but think of the conversation between the dudes she had heard last time in the toilet.

"I guess, the boss should be a middle-aged man with a big belly, maybe he is also a brother to those unscrupulous gangs!" she whispered, but despite this, Wen Yan heard her words and chuckled unconsciously.

At this time, everyone noticed Wen Yan who was wiping the guitar on the side, and the topic stopped abruptly, and some of them covered their mouths and left, and those who didn't know were also dragged to work in a daze. There are also a few who want to see the excitement and stay in place, apparently knowing the inside story.

Just when they thought that they were going to be punished for their promises, they only saw Wen Yan bend the corners of his eyes.

"Promise, go to work!" the gentle voice was almost intoxicating, but it made the people startle. Just a moment later, Wen Yan's stern gaze swept to the surrounding onlookers. Everyone left boringly.

And just like that, the tranquil bar began to greet another lively crowd.

Although she promised to be very skilled in the work of the bar, whenever she got off work, she always felt as if her muscles were about to be torn apart.

At this time, she squeezed her weak shoulders and walked out of the bar. Looking at the shining moon disk hanging in the sky, she exhaled heavily, as if bidding farewell to another day's heavy life.

Soon, she called a taxi as usual. But the journey was a little longer than usual. She planned to go back to the hut first, bring some necessities, and then go back to Xu's house.

finally said goodbye to An Ran, and she got into the taxi with a few things. And An Ran still looked at her figure with attachment. Promise smiled at her and beckoned. Then, the taxi was activated. After a while, she arrived at the Xu family, which she didn't want to touch.

She walked outside the door and suddenly withdrew her hand that was trying to knock. Her sparkling eyes rolled unconsciously, and she wondered if she walked in brightly, she would inevitably suffer another sneer from them. She wouldn't be so stupid this time, and planned to take a detour to the back of the villa, where there was a shortcut she had stumbled upon as a child.

Although the process can be a bit strenuous, she wants to relive her childhood fantasies.

So, she immediately turned around and left the main entrance, and ran to the back of the villa. It is full of plants. During the day, it's a garden to admire, but at night, it's eerie. Despite this, Promise found a passage hidden in the dense vegetation from memory.

It was a large hole that she had destroyed when she was a child, in preparation for running out in the future, and now it was used by her as a passage to sneak into the villa.

She looked at the little hole, and after some struggle, she could be considered to have passed. The wind and rain made it a lot more vulnerable. Then, she fumbled in the unlit backyard and found the back door. Then, in an abandoned mailbox, she finds the back door key that she had secretly hidden.

"Great! it's still there!" she gripped the brass key tightly and fumbled to the back door. Then, out of caution, she looked around, enjoying the thrill that is similar to that of a spy movie.

Because it was so dark, she had to take out her phone, and by the light of the screen, she easily found the keyhole. Then, with excitement, he inserted the key in.

There was a "click" and the door opened!

Promise almost jumped for joy. She has finally completed the adventure she has dreamed of since childhood. It's just the other way around. Regardless, the process went extremely smoothly.

In this way, she sneaked into the villa.

The slight sound of footsteps tapping against the good floor, she tried not to make a sound, and bent her waist. Successfully found the living room.

However, to her difficulty, she had to go back to her attic, but she had to pass through the bedroom of the Xu couple. Luckily, she didn't have anything with her, and if they were already asleep, she would have been able to slip through the tricks.

So, she gently fumbled against the wall in the direction of the attic. But when she turned her head to look at the priceless door, a strange feeling welled up in her heart. Just in case, she decided to post it and see what was going on inside.

A few slight footsteps sounded, but not so much that they could be heard by the people in the room.

Then she leaned down and pressed her ear to the door. I just don't know if I don't listen, and I'm shocked when I hear it. There was a grunting conversation. It was just so far away that she couldn't hear what they were saying. She only faintly heard her name a few times, and then, she couldn't make out what it was.

If it was okay without her name, she wouldn't care. It's just that since her name was mentioned, she couldn't help but dig deeper. Her intuition told her that it must have something to do with her coming back this time.

Then, with the audacity, she gently opened the door through a tiny, tiny crack. Although I can't see the scene inside, it is more than enough to hear the conversation inside.

I could only hear a male voice say this.

"You say, she hasn't come back since she went out in the afternoon......? Will she say yes to that?"

Soon, another female voice sounded in the room.

"Oops, what are you afraid of. You don't have to tell her anything, just send her to Boss Wang?"

Outside the door, the promise heard such a conversation, and his heart couldn't help but sink. It's just that the conversation continues.

"When the raw rice is cooked, are you still afraid that she won't be able to resist? At that time, our company will have already resumed normal operation——"

Xu Promise only felt a rumbling sound explode in his ears, and then, his hands trembled involuntarily, and his lips trembled with it. She finally understood everything...... Then, she couldn't hear any more sounds. I just feel like I'm in an ice cave.

Suddenly, her eyes went black and she didn't know where she was. And in the next second, the door was opened. Xu Yu turned his head to look over, only to see Xu's father with a shocked face. It turned out that she suddenly weakened her muscles and threw her mobile phone on the ground. Such a loud noise naturally attracted the attention of the sneaky two people in the room.

I saw that Xu's father looked back at Xu's mother, who was also worried, but Xu's mother stared coldly.

Promise, who had fallen to the ground, stared at them viciously, pulling out a sly grin, his eyes sparkling in the darkness.

"You're not going to get away with it—I'll leave now!"

With that, she was about to get up. But it was too late for Xu's father's eyes to be quick, so he grabbed her. Without saying a word, he dragged her into their bedroom. Xu Promise tried to struggle, but at this time Xu Mu also joined. She knew the weakness of women, and easily subdued the promise that was about to go berserk.

She found a rope out of nowhere, and just in case, tied up the promise and threw it in a corner of the room. He also found a random piece of cloth and stuffed it into her mouth, as if to prevent her from yelling.

It's just that Xu promised that she never thought of making noise, after all, this is the territory of the Xu family, and the three of them have colluded, even if she shouts out her throat, no one will look sideways for her.

"Promise, you don't want to escape, and when the morning dawns, you will go to Mr. Wang's villa like this. Don't use your crooked brain, if you dare to run, I will tie you up to Mr. Wang even if I break your legs!" Father Xu, who was wearing silk pajamas, stood in front of her and threatened viciously.

Xu Promise raised his head indignantly, glared, and confronted him with a stubbornness that did not admit defeat. But Father Xu disdained to play such a childish game with her, he turned his head and planned to change his clothes, in case something happened halfway, and sent her to the villa where Mr. Wang lived as soon as possible.

After a while, they all went out of the room, intending to enjoy their breakfast, leaving only one of them in the room.

At this time, she unconsciously floated a mysterious smile. She pulled out her phone. It turned out that when Xu's father dragged him into the room, she took the opportunity to hide her mobile phone in her pocket.
