Chapter 23: Warming Her Heart
"Little girl, what's wrong with you?"
A gentle voice sounded in her Lin Ran's ears, and she turned her head in surprise to look at the person who made the sound, only to find that next to her was an old woman with white hair and a wrinkled face.
She had just been so absorbed in her own thoughts that she had no idea that someone was sitting next to her.
After reacting, Lin Ran's face suddenly turned red by half, and his every move just now must have fallen into the eyes of this old woman.
"Grandma." Lin Ran was a little embarrassed to pull the messy hair in front of him, and then met the old grandmother's gaze.
"Little girl, you don't have to be shy, I just came here to sit when I was tired of walking, and the person who has been calling you just now should be a very important person for you, right?" The old woman smiled warmly at her.
"Yes." Lin Ran's eyes darkened and he lowered his head.
"Although I don't know what happened between you, but when I saw it, I wanted to advise you young people, don't hold any misunderstandings in your heart. , which is not good for both parties. So, don't be sad alone, if something goes wrong, go to him and make it clear, and the problem will be solved, which is better than you being sad here. ”
After patting Lin Ran on the shoulder, the old grandmother slowly stood up from the bench.
"Thank you, grandma." Lin Ran looked at the old woman who met her with Pingshui gratefully.
Although she didn't know what she was struggling with, these words comforted Lin Ran.
After the grandmother left, she thought that it was really inappropriate not to answer Xu Wei's phone like this, so she hesitated for a moment and contacted him again.
"Lin Ran, where are you now? You won't be angry, I just went out because something happened to my sister and I need to go over and deal with it, I hope you will forgive me. After Xu Wei received her call, he asked her anxiously.
"I don't blame you, I'm sorry today, I'm really not mentally prepared, I've left the hotel now, let me think about it and contact you again." After Lin Ran finished saying this, he hurriedly hung up the phone without waiting for him to speak.

Xu Chun didn't leave the hotel after coming to the hotel together, but estimated the time and broke into their room.
But as soon as he entered, he found that his brother was standing in the living room in a daze, and he didn't see Lin Ran's figure, Xu Chun felt strange, so he searched around for Lin Ran.
"Brother, why don't you see Lin Ran, where is she hiding? How can I not find it? Xu Chun asked.
"You're too embarrassed to ask where she is? If it weren't for you, I'd have done it by now! Well, now she's out of the hotel! After Xu Wei was hung up on the phone, his face was cloudy and uncertain.
But Xu Chun ran in again when he was in an extremely bad mood, thinking that all the fuses were because of her, and the anger in his heart couldn't be held back anymore.
"This is providence, you and Lin Ran are going to break up anyway, isn't it better? Save you from harming others! Since she will leave, it means that she is not completely relieved of you! Xu Chun was taken aback by him, and suddenly felt a little unhappy, so he attacked him.
Seeing that Xu Wei was just silent, the atmosphere suddenly quieted down.
Xu Chun regretted a little, feeling that what he said before was a bit excessive, so he couldn't help but break the silence and apologize.
"Are you angry? What I just said is a bit excessive, don't pay too much attention to it. ”
Seeing that his brother wanted to get Lin Ran like this, Xu Chun couldn't bear to look at it.
After all, she is her sister, and it's not good to help outsiders all the time.
So, after Xu Chun thought about it for a while, he decided to help Xu Wei get Lin Ran.

More than a week after Luo Yang's incident passed, Jiang Xiao was cleaning up at home, and the mobile phone on the table rang.
"Xiaoxiao, are you free now? I'd like to hang out with you, okay? Zhang Li pretended to be approachable and said, and her tone was very gentle.
When Jiang Xiao heard Zhang Li's tone, she always felt that something was not quite right with her, and her tone also made her sound a little awkward.
"I'm sorry, I'm not available right now." Jiang Xiao directly rejected Zhang Li.
When Zhang Li heard that she actually rejected herself directly, she was immediately angry and hung up the phone directly.
Seeing that Zhang Li hung up the phone, Jiang Xiao didn't understand why she was calling herself, and wondered for a while, so she didn't take it to heart.
After watching TV for a while, Jiang Xiao was really bored, went to the study to find a book, and read it intently, not expecting Zhang Li to come to her for a while.
Zhang Li was looking forward to Jiang Xiao's pregnancy, so she deliberately ran this trip.
When she arrived at Jiang Xiao's house, Zhang Li rang the doorbell angrily.
The housekeeper opened the door and welcomed Zhang Li in, but she didn't even say thank you, but looked around directly, trying to find out where Jiang Xiao was.
Seeing that Jiang Xiao was not in the living room, Zhang Li ignored it and yelled in the living room.
"Jiang Xiao, where are you? Hurry up and get me out! ”
Zhang Li looked like a shrew scolding the street, and after the housekeeper saw it, she frowned, and stepped forward and said helplessly: "Don't worry, I'll go to the study and call her for you." ”
"Go ahead!" Zhang Liyi said angrily, and then swaggered on the sofa, completely looking like her own home.
The housekeeper went to the study and quietly pushed the door in, "Young grandmother, your mother has come to look for you." ”
Jiang Xiao glanced up at the housekeeper, "I know, I'm sorry for your trouble, I'll go down immediately." ”
"Okay, then I'll go out first." The butler turned and went out, closing the door gently.
Jiang Xiao didn't expect Zhang Li to find her home, rubbed her eyebrows, and thought about how to deal with her for a while.
As soon as the book was closed, Jiang Xiao walked out of the study, and when he went downstairs, he saw Zhang Li sitting on the sofa, crossing Erlang's legs, and she had a posture of looking for someone to settle accounts.
"Why are you here? What's the matter? Jiang Xiao sat on the other side of the sofa, took a sip of water, and looked at Zhang Li calmly, waiting for her to give an answer.
"I bought a pregnancy test to see if you're pregnant?" Zhang Li directly said the purpose of her visit, "I didn't get pregnant last time because it was a short time, and this time it should have been done, right?" ”
Jiang Xiao didn't expect Zhang Li to come to her house for this reason, and she was speechless for a while, what did it matter to her whether she was pregnant or not.
"No, I don't agree." Without saying a word, Jiang Xiao directly rejected Zhang Li's request, feeling that she was really vexatious.
Zhang Li suddenly exploded, she didn't expect that she was so worried about her, she didn't know the current affairs, slapped the table fiercely, pointed at Jiang Xiao's head and scolded angrily.
"I'm for your good, you still don't agree, today you have to agree and agree, you have to agree if you don't agree, I want to see if I still care about you?"
After speaking, a fierce light flashed in Zhang Li's eyes, "If you don't agree today, I will find someone else, and I can't say for sure what grievances you have suffered at that time." ”
Her words were full of threats, Zhang Li glanced at Jiang Xiao triumphantly, she didn't believe that she said this, Jiang Xiao didn't agree.
Seeing Zhang Li's eyes, she looked like she was bound to win, which made Jiang Xiao's heart very uncomfortable, and she also knew that if she didn't agree today, she would cause more trouble in the future.
However, Jiang Xiao didn't want to be threatened by Zhang Li like this, and there was no emotional change on her face, and she said in a flat tone: "It's okay to let me take a pregnancy test, but I hope you won't interfere in this matter in the future." ”
"Okay." Zhang Li smiled happily when she heard Jiang Xiao's relief, took out the pregnancy test paper from her bag and handed it to Jiang Xiao, giving her a meaningful look.
After taking the things from Zhang Li's hands, Jiang Xiao went directly to the toilet.
After the test, seeing that there was only one line on the pregnancy test paper, Jiang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the toilet.
Looking at Zhang Li's expectant eyes, Jiang Xiao said directly: "Don't look at me like that, I'm not pregnant." ”
After telling her this fact, Jiang Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, she would finally not be involved in this matter in the future, and she would be about to lose a lot of trouble.
Zhang Li was taken aback and felt that it was unlikely, so she looked at the pregnancy test paper and believed this fact.
Suddenly, Zhang Li changed her face and said mockingly: "I didn't expect your belly to be so unassuming, so much so that I thought you were pregnant!" ”
Jiang Xiao wanted to refute, but the housekeeper spoke, and said respectfully, "Young grandma has to go out to eat with young master in a while, you can see if you go home now, otherwise I'm afraid I will snub you." ”
The housekeeper watched the whole process of things in the living room, he felt that Jiang Xiao was not worth it, Zhang Li looked very scheming at a glance, Jiang Xiao was actually used by her stupidly, just now he really couldn't stand Zhang Li's mocking face, so he thought of the idea that the young master wanted to take the young grandmother out to eat, and wanted to drive Zhang Li out of the house.
Zhang Li got the result she wanted, and she didn't want to stay longer, "Okay, then I'll go first, and be well-behaved in someone else's house." ”
After Zhang Li left, Jiang Xiao suddenly took off his disguise, and he didn't have the powerful aura just now, like an injured child.
Although she has no feelings for Zhang Li, she is also very uncomfortable when she treats herself like this, she doesn't know how to express it, and sits on the sofa in a daze.
The white light sprinkled down, which made Jiang Xiao even more sad and distressing.
The housekeeper looked at Jiang Xiao's appearance from the side, and he was also very distressed, it was also a kind of helplessness to have such a parent.
He could only comfort, "Young grandma, don't feel bad, you don't have to take her to heart in the future, anyway, you are a member of the Gu family, you have been wronged, the young master will definitely call the shots for you, don't worry." ”
Listening to the housekeeper's words, Jiang Xiao's heart felt a little better, "Housekeeper, thank you, you are so good to me." ”
Jiang Xiao's words were full of gratitude, she hadn't felt such warm words for a long time, and the housekeeper's words were like a warm current, warming her heart.
