Ran Xixi was accompanying Zhan Ruijue to water the little sapling, and he didn't notice the strangeness of Zhan Xingchuan.

Before returning to China, she had never had any experience getting along with children, originally, Ran Xixi felt that she didn't like children very much, and always felt that they were crying and screaming, snot and saliva were flying, and there was really no way to stay by their side for even a minute.

However, Zhan Ruijue changed her mind. Not only because he is very quiet and well-behaved, but also because Ran Xixi suddenly realized that the time with her children was full of innocence and innocence, as if she could temporarily forget all kinds of pressures in the workplace and the deceitful deceitful between people.

This feeling, for her, is hard to change.

As soon as he looked up, Ran Xixi saw that Zhan Xingchuan actually took out his mobile phone again and photographed her and Zhan Ruijue.

Although he was dissatisfied, however, the little guy was watering the little saplings very cutely, and Ran Xixi also felt that this scene should indeed be filmed, and when he grew up in the future, let him see what he looked like when he was a child, that scene must be very interesting.

"You go get me the camera, I'll take a picture. ”

She stood up and commanded Zhan Xingchuan.

I thought he would be unhappy, but he immediately turned around, walked back to the living room, and took her camera.

Although Zhan Xingchuan didn't know how to take pictures, he could see the quality of a thing, and as soon as he picked up the camera, he was sure that this was a valuable camera, so he subconsciously took a few more looks, and naturally saw the word "Xixi" engraved on it.

"Give. ”

Ran Xixi took the camera, ignored him anymore, and began to take pictures of Zhan Ruijue.

It wasn't until dinner that the two adults and one child left the garden.

And her camera is already filled with hundreds of photos, most of which are solo photos of Zhan Ruijue, and some group photos of Zhan Xingchuan and Zhan Ruijue. Because Ran Xixi refused to let go, Zhan Xingchuan offered to help her and Zhan Ruijue shoot several times, but she refused, and only allowed him to use his mobile phone.

"Your camera is so expensive, I can't even touch it. ”

Zhan Xingchuan said stupidly.

The expensive camera is one of the reasons, but the more important reason is that there are still some photos taken in the studio during the day today, and Ran Xixi is in a hurry, and it has not been fully imported into the computer. That's why she was so cautious, lest the information inside be accidentally leaked out.

She didn't pay attention to Zhan Xingchuan's question, and let him think whatever he wanted.

Seeing that the food had been served on the table, Ran Xixi took Zhan Ruijue to wash her hands, and when she came out, she found Zhan Xingchuan standing aside on the phone, looking very serious.

With a sigh in her heart, she was a thief, and subconsciously thought that the words she said to Lu Qinghuan this morning had a role. Could it be that Lu Qinghuan's people snatched some benefits from the people of Zhan Xingchuan, so after he heard it, he behaved so abnormally.

Let Zhan Ruijue sit down first, Ran Xixi stood at the dining table, pricked up his ears, and paid attention to Zhan Xingchuan's every move.

"Has it been taken to the hospital? Okay, I know, then I'll go over right now, his child is out of town, I guess I won't be able to come for a while, you can watch first."

As he spoke, he turned and went upstairs, as if intending to change his clothes.

Ran Xixi listened to what Zhan Xingchuan said just now, and felt as if someone was sick, she quickly caught up with him and asked nervously, "What's wrong." Something happened. Are you going out. ”

He turned around, glanced at her, and sighed again: "It's Uncle He who had a stroke, and he was just found and sent to the hospital for rescue, I plan to go over and take a look now." By the way, during the time you were not in Zhonghai, Aunt Wang and Uncle Zhao passed away one after another, and now among the old servants in the family, only Uncle He is left."

Although Zhan Xingchuan has been on his own for many years, he still has a lot of feelings for these old servants of the Zhan family.

When he was a child, the people who accompanied him the most were not his parents, but these servants who worked in the war family, at that time they were just middle-aged, and in a blink of an eye, they also entered old age, and even died.

In the past six months, Uncle He has been chattering, people are old, no, old friends are gone, he is left alone, it doesn't mean anything, it's better to go down early, everyone can still play a table of mahjong in the underworld. He had already had a stroke once, and the doctor had said that if he had another stroke, it would be even worse, and it was even very likely to pass it directly.

Therefore, as soon as he heard that Uncle He was hospitalized, Zhan Xingchuan couldn't help but be very worried, and he had to go over to take a look at everything.

"I'll go with you. I thought that Uncle He and they didn't take care of me at the beginning, but I didn't expect that Aunt Wang and Uncle Zhao were gone."

This news was so unexpected, after hearing it, Ran Xixi couldn't help but have red eyes.

"Okay. ”

Zhan Xingchuan hesitated, but nodded. Then, he looked at Sister Li: "You and Rui Rui will eat first, you don't have to wait for us, I don't know when I will come back." ”

Sister Li immediately turned around and took a few snacks, put them in the crisper box, and let Ran Xixi and Zhan Xingchuan eat them on the road, and padded their stomachs first.

Soon, the two got into the car and hurried to the hospital.

Regarding Ran Xixi's initiative to visit Uncle He, Zhan Xingchuan was actually a little surprised.

She seemed to see his surprise, looked ahead, exhaled slowly, and whispered: "You know, I'm really afraid to hear the news of the accident with the old people around me now, even if it's just the maid at home, or even the newsstand uncle or cleaning aunt that I see every day." Every time I see them, I think of my dad and I mean my adoptive dad. When his business failed, he took poison and then jumped off the building, and I never knew how lonely he would have been at the last moment of his life, when I was still in the United States, and I didn't know anything about the situation at home."

After saying this, Ran Xixi hid her face and sobbed.

She is not qualified to judge whether the love between Ran Tianze and Qiu Jing is against morality, the only thing she knows is that the people who have raised her for so many years are Ran Tianze and his wife. Even her biological mother chose to give up on her when she was born, never fed her a mouthful of milk, and never changed a diaper for her.

Hearing this, Zhan Xingchuan freed up a hand and took the initiative to hold her hand.

Ran Xixi didn't push him away.

At that moment, she suddenly realized that she was not as strong as she imagined. Even, she felt that she needed a shoulder to lean on at the moment, and she didn't want to continue to drift.

It was the first time he had heard her tell about Ran Tianze's suicide, Zhan Xingchuan thought about it for a while, although he didn't know much about it, but he always felt that there seemed to be something strange in the whole thing.

After thinking about it, he still asked: "That, I'm sorry I have to recall that bad memory again, you just said that your adoptive father took poison first and then jumped off the building." From how many floors did you jump from. ”

Ran Xixi came back to his senses, withdrew his hand from Zhan Xingchuan's hand, stabilized his heartbeat, and then replied: "Although the Ran family is not as rich as the Diao family, it is also the first batch of people to do business after the reform and opening up, you only know where the Diao family is, haven't you ever heard of the Ran family." ”

He heard it, and she was still resentful of her acquisition of the Diao family in the first place, and beat him at any time.

Although the Ran's building was built relatively early, it has a history of nearly 20 years, but it also has more than 20 floors.

Therefore, Zhan Xingchuan felt even more puzzled, with a height of more than 20 floors, it is impossible not to die if he jumps, is it necessary to take poison before jumping off the building. Isn't that redundant?

Or is it that Ran Tianze didn't dare to jump off the building, and relied on drinking poison to strengthen his courage.

Speaking of which, it doesn't make any sense, I'm afraid of jumping off a building, isn't I afraid of taking drugs?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but express his doubts: "In the twentieth floor, do you think your adoptive father still needs to drink poison." Was he worried that he wouldn't die if he fell? Who told you this? ”

Although he didn't want to discuss this topic, since he had said this, Ran Xixi didn't hide it, and told Zhan Xingchuan and Pan: "When I heard the news, I was still in the United States, and it was Ruan Fan who called me, and she only told me that my father committed suicide by jumping off a building because of a business failure. Later, I begged an uncle I knew to secretly make a copy of the autopsy report and send it to me. I saw that the death certificate given by the police stated that the deceased had taken poison and then committed suicide by jumping off a building, ruling out the possibility of homicide. And the medicine bottle was found on the desk in the office, and the clear fingerprints that could be collected on it were only his own."

These things, for her, are not only painful memories, but also the beginning of a difficult life.

Before Ran Tianze's accident, she was a worry-free lady, after Ran's bankruptcy, she had to terminate her studies in the United States, quit her apartment, and prepare to return to China, but the day before returning to China, she was calculated by Diao Ranran and returned to Zhonghai as her.

"Let's talk about this for now. However, I suspect that the death of your adoptive father is very problematic. I'll check it out for you and see if you can get any new leads. ”

Seeing that he was about to arrive at the hospital, Zhan Xingchuan paused the discussion of this topic in time.

Ran Xixi was stunned for a moment, carefully chewing the meaning of his words.

She didn't suspect it, but she just didn't have any evidence. Moreover, Ran Tianze's funeral was handled in a hurry, everything was handled by Ruan Fan, the widow, and outsiders couldn't intervene. Some people also said that they had to wait for Ran Xixi to return to China, after all, she was the only daughter, but Ruan Fan insisted on mourning, and said that it would be good to let her husband be buried as soon as possible.

In this way, when Ran Xixi, who had been in the United States for a few days, returned to Zhonghai again, Ran Tianze had already been buried in the ground.
