Chapter Ninety-Three: Everything Is Messed Up
"What's the mush?"
Ran Xixi stood in place, his hands clenched, and he didn't move for a long time.
When she heard the voice, she hurriedly turned around to check, and the eggs in the frying pan were all burnt and were emitting a bad smell, and they had long been inedible.
Seeing that Ran Xixi looked like she was wandering out of the world, Zhan Xingchuan hurriedly reached out to turn off the switch on the stove, so as not to splash out the oil star inside and burn her arm.
"I'll come, you get out of the way. ”
He fastened his apron, gently pushed her aside, and turned off the TV on the wall.
"Sorry, I just got distracted and fried the eggs. ”
Ran Xixi looked at the few black lumps in the trash can and apologized softly.
Poured oil into the frying pan again, Zhan Xingchuan turned the hot oil, glanced at her, and then smiled slightly, deliberately teasing her: "What's wrong? I got distracted early in the morning, is it because I didn't go to moisturize you last night, and you are disappointed?"
She was angry and laughing, and the expression on her face was finally less stiff.
However, Ran Xixi still didn't want to tell him the gossip he had just heard.
She turned to flush the cereal, pretending to be nothing.
Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Zhan Xingchuan didn't ask any more questions, and concentrated on frying eggs. As soon as he turned it over, the mobile phone he was holding in his trouser pocket rang, he took out his phone with his free hand, slid to unlock it, and glanced at the screen, his face changed slightly.
Raising his head, he saw Ran Xixi lowering his head, stirring the cereal in the cup.
"Just now, when someone broke the news that you and Lu Qinghuan were in love, they split Qiao Sijie. Some people also said that it was the NG Group that used you as bait to lure Lu Qinghuan into the bait, and after you were dumped by him, you quickly hooked up with Qiao Sijie and prepared to marry him. ”
Zhan Xingchuan spoke calmly and relayed the news he had just seen to Ran Xixi.
And he also understood that she should have seen similar news just now, so she behaved so gaffe, forgetting that the stove next to her was still on.
"And ......"
After a pause, Zhan Xingchuan continued to throw out an even worse news: "Last night, Qiao Yanne took your sister to a business reception, so in other words, the secret of the twins is no longer a secret, and the matter of the two of you may not be long before it completely surfaces." You...... Be mentally prepared, in the past two days, there may be reporters frantically looking for you......"
Hearing his words, Ran Xixi's hand loosened, and the cup full of milk cereal fell to the ground and spilled on the ground.
What she didn't expect was that the day would come so quickly.
Although, she had expected it, and felt that the whole thing might not be hidden for long. However, the result was still faster than she thought, and it was not even able to delay until next year......
Some of Bai Huahua's liquid splashed on the surface of her feet, it was very hot, but Ran Xixi didn't feel anything anymore, she just bred an unprecedented sense of fear from the depths of her heart.
"Be careful!"
As early as when he saw her show a dejected expression, Zhan Xingchuan expected that the situation was not good, but he was still a step too late. By the time he rushed in front of Ran Xixi and squatted down to check the instep of her feet, her originally fair skin had been scalded red, and milk and cereal were still sticking to it.
"Rinse yourself with water and come with me. ”
Without saying a word, he grabbed her by the shoulders and pulled her half-dragging and half-dragging her to the sink to rinse her with water.
Fortunately, although one of Ran Xixi's feet was burned by the freshly washed cereal, the epidermis was not broken, just a little red, just rub some ointment, and there should be no need to go to the hospital.
Zhan Xingchuan asked her to sit down on the sofa, and he looked around the room, took out the first aid kit from the cabinet, and he rummaged through it, and sure enough, there was mint cream in it.
It wasn't until the cold ointment was applied to the skin that Ran Xixi finally came back to her senses, she smiled bitterly, and said in a low voice: "I'm really useless, eggs are fried, cereal is overturned, no wonder bad luck always haunts me, I can't shake it off......"
Zhan Xingchuan asked her to sit on the sofa with her legs stretched out and her feet on the sofa, while he knelt on the ground on one leg, supporting her calves with one hand, wiping the ointment with the other, and carefully applying it evenly.
"It has nothing to do with you, those photos were clearly taken a long time ago, and then they were specially selected to explode at this time. As for Qiao Yanne's side, it is also a matter of time, he is now fighting happily with Qiao Sijie, of course he will spare no effort to find a way to make trouble for the other party. And you are a trump card against Josjie. ”
He pursed his lips and calmly helped her analyze the current situation.
Listening to Zhan Xingchuan's words, Ran Xixi instinctively shrank back, he immediately pressed her leg with his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Don't move, I just wiped the medicine!"
"What do you mean I'm a trump card? Can't I fall in love and get married? I and Lu Qinghuan have made it very clear, he also accepted to separate from me, Qiao Sijie is not a third party, and I didn't play with the two of them at the same time!"
She bit her lip tightly, and her voice was hoarse in extreme anger.
Glancing at her, Zhan Xingchuan slowly spoke: "For some media who have no morality and no conscience, it doesn't matter what the truth of the matter is, the important thing is to be able to attract attention." And for some friends who have no judgment and nothing to do, it doesn't matter what the truth of the matter is, the important thing is that there is gossip to discuss. Unfortunately, a few of you have provided them with enough talking points to talk about, and there is no need to worry about running out of news these days. ”
After speaking, he paused, looked at Ran Xixi's face again, and reminded: "You must not run around in the past two days, on the cusp, no matter what you say to reporters, it will be misinterpreted, so the best way is to shut up." ”
She couldn't help but interrupt him: "Is it playing disappearing again? Just like last time, you still let me be a turtle with a shrunken head?"
Because when the illegitimate daughter was exposed, Zhan Xingchuan asked Lu Qinghuan to take her away, Ran Xixi has always been worried about this matter, she feels that she is already an adult, she has the ability to deal with it, and she doesn't need to hide so much, but she seems to be weak-hearted.
"It's not for you to be a turtle with a shrunken head, it's for you to stop what the Qiao family says for the time being. Also, you are no longer a member of the NG Group, and you don't know anything about the company's initiatives, if you rashly clarify this matter, and then affect the cooperation between Bonnie Kers and Lu Qinghuan, you say, will they be angry with you?"
Zhan Xingchuan is a man, and he also knows very well what men think, and women tend to lose their minds for the sake of feelings. But for men, money, status, and power are often higher than the so-called love.
Therefore, it is not excluded that the two men, Lu Qinghuan and Qiao Sijie, invariably chose to protect themselves and threw Ran Xixi out to block the difficulty.
This is a low possibility, but it is not impossible.
In case the two of them speak in unison and say that they don't know about this matter, then Ran Xixi will be miserable, and he can't speak clearly. After all, no one knows the timeline of their respective relationships except for the parties involved, and there is a high probability that she will be characterized as stepping on two boats with one foot.
"So what should I do?"
Probably Zhan Xingchuan's words worked, Ran Xixi suddenly panicked, just a few seconds ago, she couldn't wait to go to those scribbling reporters to make it clear in person. But now, too, she felt that doing so would be tantamount to self-defeating, and that every word she said could be attached with a strange meaning, making the whole thing more complicated.
"Don't do it, and Rui Rui are here to have a good Christmas and enjoy the holidays. As for the rest, leave it to the man. You're not a cutie in the first place, and if they dare to touch you, you have to be ready to be crushed at all times. ”
Zhan Xingchuan stood up and smiled nonchalantly.
Originally, Lu Qinghuan hugged Bonnie Kears's thigh, which made him feel very unhappy. Now that this incident has happened, at least it will make his mood greatly reduced, so that he will not be happy too soon. In this regard, Zhan Xingchuan is happy to see it.
"Do you have to compete with Lu Qinghuan? Zhonghai has so much land, and you are not a completely unreasonable person, don't you have to consider the cost-output ratio as a businessman? This cost is really worth the future benefits?"
Seeing that somewhat familiar smile on his face, Ran Xixi couldn't help but ask anxiously, judging from the current situation, no matter who wins or loses between the two of them, she will not feel happy from the bottom of her heart.
"I'm glad that I've become a reasonable person in your eyes again. Thanks a lot. ”
Glancing down at her, Zhan Xingchuan walked to the kitchen and continued to make breakfast.
She struggled to stand up, but the instep was red, swollen and burning, and there was no way to stuff it into the slippers, so Ran Xixi had to sit on the sofa honestly. Picking up the remote control on the coffee table, she turned on the TV and went to the live channel of online entertainment.
The speed of communication on the Internet is really the fastest, and not long after those photos broke out, the gossip area on the interactive platform was flooded with various messages from friends.
Although it is not the first time that he has encountered a similar crisis, Ran Xixi is still a little worried when he sweeps those words.
What made her heart chill the most was that her sister, whose blood was thicker than water, once again drove her to a dead end when she was unprepared: impersonation, ruining the family business, and ruining the marriage contract...... These inexplicable charges were all planted on Ran Xixi's head.
When eating breakfast, Zhan Ruijue seemed to notice the solemnity of the atmosphere, and he didn't shout to go out to play. However, Zhan Xingchuan offered to take him outside to build a snowman, it snowed last night, although it was not big, but there was also a layer in front of the door.
"Go ahead, get dressed, gloves and a scarf. ”
Ran Xixi barely cheered up and admonished.
Father and son were building a snowman at the door, and she made herself a cup of hot cocoa, holding it in both hands, and stood in front of the window watching them.
When Lu Qinghuan called, Zhan Ruijue was trying to stick half a carrot into the snowman's head as a nose.
Ran Xixi hesitated, but still picked it up: "Hey." ”
