Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Old Thing of the Ran Family
If he hadn't reminded her, Ran Xixi would have forgotten that the red envelope she gave her son was still under her pillow.
"I'll fetch it. ”
She turned around and was about to leave, when she saw Zhan Xingchuan actually coming over.
"Rui Rui, count it again, remember what I just said to you, and I'll come back to test you later. ”
Zhan Ruijue immediately raised his little hand, compared it, and replied with his chest up, "!"
Seeing this, Ran Xixi shook his head helplessly, and complained in a low voice as he walked: "You have to let your children be contaminated with the copper stench of money early!
Zhan Xingchuan squinted at her: "You are wrong, making money is the most artistic thing in the world." If you think about it, you love money, and I love money, but I can get money out of your pocket and into my own pocket, if it's not art, what is it?"
It seems that there is indeed some truth, and Ran Xixi is silent.
She walked into her bedroom, and when she was caught off-guard, Zhan Xingchuan also came in, and closed the door with her hand.
Hearing the voice, Ran Xixi suddenly turned around sharply and shouted at him with an unkind face: "Who let you in? Get out immediately! This is my room." ”
Hearing this, Zhan Xingchuan deliberately kept a distance of about two meters from her, he immediately stretched out a hand, made a reassuring movement, and kept explaining: "I really don't have any malicious intent, I just want to say a few words to you, it's best not to let Rui Rui hear, I'm afraid he will inadvertently break in......"
Hearing him say this, Ran Xixi didn't speak again.
Zhan Xingchuan looked around and saw the suitcases that had been sorted out in the corner, and couldn't help but sigh: "You are alone with Rui Rui, you must be more careful outside......
She showed a sarcastic expression and interrupted him mercilessly: "Thanks for the reminder, you don't have to worry about these things." When you're done, please go out. Considering that you may not see Rui Rui for the next few months, I will allow you to spend more time with him these days, but if you think this means that our relationship has eased, then you are wrong. My contempt for you has only increased, and it is difficult to eliminate. ”
After speaking, Ran Xixi walked to the door and opened the door.
Zhan Xingchuan had no choice but to leave silently.
She slammed the door shut, letting the door make a muffled noise, kicking up a slight cloud of dust.
Pressing his back tightly against the door, Ran Xixi covered his face with his hands, and his body slowly slid down. She thought that after a few days, she would be able to forget that incident, that scene. Who knows, when she saw Qiao Yanne today, she couldn't help but relive the picture at that time, and she was still unacceptably palpitating and in pain.
If there is anyone in this world who can understand her difficulties, it may be him, but she can't say a word more in front of him, only to remain silent.
That night, shortly after Ran Xixi had just finished bathing Rui Rui, she received a friend request.
She only registered WeChat after returning to China, or because of work needs, so there are not many people in the address book, only a few dozen. Since resigning, Ran Xixi has not used it much, and occasionally chatted with Kong Miaomiao and Ji Shixue, and at this moment a person suddenly appeared to apply for friends, and she was a little surprised.
After glancing at the information and avatar, she recognized it, it was actually Ling Yu.
As soon as the other party added her, Ran Xixi remembered that a long time ago, the two of them had a chat on the Great Wall. At that time, Ling Yu promised her to go back to the old house and sort out the things left by her father back then, and then give them to her to see if they were useful.
Since then, though, they haven't been in touch either.
Ran Xixi immediately clicked through.
Ling Yu quickly sent a text, which was a little long: "Miss Ran, Happy Spring Festival." I'm sorry to have been in contact with you for so long. Because the water pipes in my house were aging, they flooded once last month, and I was filming in other places at the time, and when the assistant arrived, even the furniture was almost floating. It took me a few days to get those things in order, and if you have time lately, I can bring them to you. ”
Although it was just text, across the screen, Ran Xixi still read it full of apologies.
She knew that Ling Yu was not a person who would deliberately miss an appointment, and it was impossible for him to deliberately make up such a lie to deceive himself. It can only be said that everything is too coincidental, the old house that has never been lived in suddenly burst water due to a burst water pipe, and everything in the house is flooded, which is really unexpected.
Ran Xixi replied immediately, thanked him first, and then said that he had time in the past two days and could pick it up in person.
As for the location, since the other party is an artist and has recently begun to become famous, in order to avoid being recognized, Ran Xixi asked Ling Yu to decide where to meet.
"Okay, then tomorrow at noon, the restaurant next to the company, you should know, I'll send you the address. ”
During the Chinese New Year, the agent and assistant were resting, and Ling Yu didn't dare to go to a place that was too unfamiliar, so he chose to be near the company. With that, he sent the address. As soon as Ran Xixi saw that her confirmation was there, she immediately sent an "ok" expression and ended the conversation with him.
At eleven o'clock in the morning the next day, Ran Xixi packed up and prepared to go out.
Zhan Ruijue looked at her with a resentful expression: "Mom, you went out again, yesterday and today." ”
Ran Xixi brushed his hair and dropped a kiss on his face: "Isn't there a father with you?" You are obedient at home, I will come back as soon as possible. ”
However, Zhan Xingchuan looked at her with some doubts, extremely curious in his heart, and didn't know who she was going to see today.
Glancing at him, Ran Xixi left without a notice.
When she arrived at the restaurant, Ling Yu was already one step ahead of her, sitting at a table in the corner, waiting for Ran Xixi's arrival.
As soon as he saw her approaching, he immediately got up and pulled out a chair for her very gentlemanly.
"Thank you. Have you waited a long time?"
Ran Xixi took off his scarf and asked in a low voice, with a shallow smile on his face.
No matter what, it's always a pleasure to meet your childhood friends again. Although she barely remembered the happy day they had at that time, only the shy little boy with no teeth, and the nickname she gave to others.
"You're welcome. Actually, I just arrived. ”
Ling Yu sat down across from her and replied with a smile.
In his hand was a thick brown paper envelope, which seemed to be the stuff.
Seeing Ran Xixi's gaze fall on this, Ling Yu smiled slyly, reached out and took it away from the table, and instead put it on the empty chair beside him, and said, "In order to prevent you from leaving as soon as you get your things, leaving me alone here for lunch, I decided to give it to you later, how about it?"
She suddenly laughed: "Can I say that your approach is 'villain first, then gentleman'?"
Ling Yu pondered slightly: "It doesn't seem to be very appropriate, right? No matter, order food first, it's rare that the assistant is not here, I can eat casually today, I don't have to be hungry." ”
Ran Xixi opened his mouth slightly, expressing surprise.
She knew that female artists would go on a diet in order to maintain their figure, but she didn't expect that male artists would do the same.
The two of them each ordered a set meal and chatted while eating.
"It may seem a bit abrupt to ask, but I would like to know how you made the decision to leave the NG Group? ”
Ling Yu was eating, suddenly put down his chopsticks, and asked with interest.
"I don't know if it's a dream, but it's definitely not okay not to get a salary, I still have to raise a son, and I can't drink the northwest wind. ”
Ran Xixi also casually said a joke, but she quickly said with a straight face: "Ling Yu, you are now an artist highly praised by Jiahuang Entertainment, with good resources, a hard background, and the reputation of NG Group abroad, as long as you seize the opportunity, it won't be long before you will definitely become popular, I have this hunch." ”
She's not touting, she's telling the truth.
Regarding the strength of NG Group, as an assistant to the president, Ran Xixi knows very well that there is no need to brag, everything is there.
Hearing her say this, Ling Yu was a little embarrassed, but he quickly adjusted and asked about Ran Xixi's current situation. After all, he naturally saw all the overwhelming news on the Internet, and it was impossible for him to be ignorant.
"It's going to pass, I can only persuade myself. ”
Ran Xixi tried to keep smiling, then stretched out his hand to him and tilted his head: "The meal is ready, can you give me something?"
Rui Rui was still waiting at home, she didn't want to delay outside for too long, not to mention that this kind of private meeting, if she was photographed by the paparazzi, it might also have a bad impact on Ling Yu. Therefore, Ran Xixi intends to leave here as soon as possible.
Ling Yu smiled and gave her the things.
"Don't scold me, it's really blistered, my assistant and I have been at home for two whole days, but some of the handwriting is still not clear, and it has caused some damage when pulling, I'm sorry. ”
Although I don't know if these things are valuable, after all, they are old materials from the Ran family, and they should be very commemorative for Ran Xixi.
She hugged the envelope tightly and thanked Ling Yu: "It should be me who thank you." So, don't rob me of this meal, let me pay for it. ”
Ling Yu spread his hands and said honestly: "Okay, if you invite this meal, I will have a reason to ask you again, and please come back next time." I can't ask for that. ”
Ran Xixi said goodbye to him with a smile, and in order not to be photographed, the two left the restaurant one after the other.
As soon as he got in the car, Ran Xixi impatiently opened the big bulging envelope, and sure enough, the paper inside was crumpled and crumpled, obviously blistered and then dried.
She pulled it out and looked at them one by one, hoping to find something useful.
