Chapter 3: Homelessness
After Gu Ran hung up the phone, he picked up the coat on the bed, his eyes swept to a touch of red on the sheets, his eyes stayed for a few seconds, and then he turned around and walked out of the room.
After Chu Lingxi left the bar, she had been walking aimlessly on the street, at this time, she seemed to be like a puppet with her soul drained, her eyes were empty, and she felt that the whole world had abandoned her.
She didn't know where she was supposed to go now, she didn't want to go back to that rental house, and she didn't want to see the mother who betrayed her.
She didn't feel tired, she didn't know how long she had been walking, the mobile phone she was holding in her hand rang again, Chu Lingxi saw that it was her best friend Lan Ling calling, her fingertips gently slid to the answer button, and then put the phone to her ear
"Hey"
A girl's sweet voice came from the other end of the phone: "Xiaoxi! It's me."
Chu Lingxi's voice was very low, "Lingling, is there something wrong?" ”
Lan Ling listened to Chu Ling's voice, something was wrong, "Xiaoxi! I'm fine, but something seems to have happened to you, what's wrong? What happened? I don't think you're happy."
Chu Lingxi heard Lan Ling's concerned questioning her, and the tears that she finally couldn't hold back fell like beads with broken threads, not everyone abandoned her, she still had Lan Ling, Lan Ling heard Chu Lingxi's crying voice, she also panicked, and her voice was even more eager
"Xiaoxi! Why are you crying? What happened? Don't cry yet, where are you now? Shall I go over and look for you? ”
Chu Lingxi told Lan Ling where she was now, and after a while, Lan Ling came over, she saw Chu Lingxi squatting helplessly on the side of the road alone, like an abandoned child, Lan Ling ran over and helped her up
"Xiaoxi, tell me! What the hell is going on, you're in a hurry to kill me, say it, maybe I can help you"
Lan Ling saw her crying so sadly, and thought that she had to calm down her mood first, Lan Ling took Chu Lingxi to a dessert house, found a place to sit down, and specially ordered Chu Lingxi's favorite strawberry cake, watching Chu Lingxi's mood gradually stabilize, Lan Ling spoke
"Xiaoxi, this is your favorite strawberry cake, I know you're not in the mood to eat it now, but, I've heard people say that people eat some sweets when they're in a bad mood, which can make you feel happy, I've tried it before, it seems to be very effective, you can try it too"
She pushed the cake in front of Chu Lingxi, Chu Lingxi and Lan Ling were classmates, after graduation, the two were officially upgraded to best friends, she looked at the strawberry cake in front of her, picked up the spoon next to her and took a small bite, raised her head to look at Lan Ling, and then showed a faint smile
"Lingling, thank you! You're so good to me."
Lan Ling glared at her, "I'm not good to you, who is good to you?" ”
When Chu Lingxi heard her say this, her heart was even more moved, and Lan Ling continued to ask, "How is it?" Are you feeling better now? ”
Chu Lingxi nodded, "Well, it's much better."
Lan Ling smiled and continued to ask tentatively, "Then can you tell me now, what happened?" ”
Chu Lingxi looked at her, Lan Ling was her best friend, there was no need to hide her affairs, and after that, Chu Lingxi told Lan Ling everything that happened yesterday, and Lan Ling was angry after hearing it
"No wonder you are so sad, if it were me, I guess I would even have the heart to die, and my aunt would have gone too far to do this, how could she let you do such a thing, how could she do this to you?"
Chu Lingxi shook her head, indicating that she didn't want to talk anymore, Lan Ling asked when she saw her like this
"Xiaoxi, what are you going to do now?"
Chu Lingxi sighed and said, "I don't know, anyway, I don't want to go back to that home, I should go find a job first."
"Then you don't have a place to go now, why don't you go to me first, although the place is a little smaller, but it's okay for the two of us to squeeze in, and then you're going out to look for a job, how about it?"
Chu Lingxi looked at her, and a smile appeared on her face, "Thank you Lingling, you are so good!" I'm homeless now, but I'm glad I still have you."
Lan Ling also smiled and said, "What's polite to me, didn't I be a friend?" I still miss the time we used to spend at school."
"Hmmm! I miss that time too."
The two chatted for a while before leaving the dessert house and walking towards Lan Ling's nest together.
Since Mother Chu spoke on the phone with Chu Lingxi in the morning, she has been hiding, because she is afraid that Brother Long's people will find her and then kill her, these are all possible.
Now she can only hide first, and after this period of time, she can't contact Chu Lingxi now, she can't affect her anymore, she is sorry enough for her daughter.
A fiery red Ferrari was parked under the building of the Gu Group, Gu Ran got out of the car, the doorman saw that the president was coming, and hurriedly stepped forward, Gu Ran threw the car key to him, and then walked inside.
took the president's special elevator directly to the 31st floor, and as soon as the elevator door opened, Gu Ran saw Zhang Nan's paralyzed face.
Zhang Nan hurriedly stepped forward and came to Gu Ran's side, Gu Ran listened to Zhang Nan's words while walking towards the office
"President! You're back, I've called you so much and you've turned off your phone, and if you don't show up again, I'm going to use the Cloud Gang."
Gu Ran shot a sharp look at Zhang Nan, and Zhang Nan immediately closed his chattering mouth.
Gu Ran entered the office, sat on a chair behind a desk, and spoke coldly
"Say! What's the urgency? ”
Zhang Nan followed him into the office, then closed the door, walked in front of Gu Ran and said
"President! There is a problem with the construction of Repulse Bay Resort, our people have secretly investigated, there are quality problems with building materials, some people are shoddy, but the building materials have always been in charge of the young master, he has just been on a business trip, president, you have just taken over such a problem, it is obvious that someone wants to frame us"
Listening to Zhang Nan's report, Gu Ran raised his eyebrows, his deep eyes became sharper and sharper, his handsome face showed a touch of cold majesty, and his fingers tapped lightly on the desk
"Is he so anxious to pull me off the stage? What a big deal can be achieved if you are so breathless! Good! He's going to have fun, isn't he? Then we'll play with him and have a good time with him."
When Zhang Nan saw the appearance of his own president, he felt that the hairs on his whole body stood up, and cold sweat broke out on his back unconsciously, I have to say that some people are born with a kind of domineering spirit of a king
"President, what should we do now?"
Gu Ran said lightly, "For the time being, just stay put, as long as you closely observe their every move, notify me immediately if there is any news, now help me call Lin Hao and Ling Shaohan to come over, I have something to talk to them."
Zhang Nan got the president's instructions: "Yes!" "President" said and quit the president's office!
Gu Ran stood up, bypassed the desk in front of him, walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window and stood still, he looked down at the city, and said in a low voice: Gu Fan, don't blame me for being ruthless!
