The weather was very gloomy, as if the low pressure of the impending rainstorm was enveloping the Jiang family. "Zhao Fan, listen to my explanation!" Jiang Yan grabbed Zhao Fan, who was about to turn around and leave, and said eagerly.

Zhao Fan hesitated for a while, but soon remembered that his mother was about to kneel in front of Jiang Yan and plead. He quickly relented, ignoring her hand tugging at the corner of his clothes.

Jiang Yan half-raised her hand and froze in the air, embarrassed, "Don't go!" I... I can explain! She gritted her teeth and chased after her again. But Zhao Fan was still indifferent, and he walked towards the door without stopping this time.

Zhang Li, who was still watching the drama before, was not calm now, she didn't expect Zhao Fan to have such a big impact on Jiang Yan. "Yeon-yeon! You give me back! Zhang Li followed closely and wanted to stop Jiang Yan.

Zhang Li's scolding voice successfully floated past Jiang Yan's ears, and she anxiously wanted to stop Zhao Fan from leaving. Jiang Yan thought that if they couldn't explain it well today, they wouldn't have a future.

"I just wanted to play a joke with your mom, I didn't want her to actually kneel for me! Don't go, I'll give you the money now! If you see enough, if it's not enough, I can still find a way. Jiang Yan took out her bank card and wanted to stuff it to Zhao Fan, but she was in a hurry and didn't know what to do.

Zhao Fan sneered, looking at Jiang Yan's eyes how cold and unfamiliar.

"No, I wasn't going to ask for your money. Keep it for yourself, and the two of us will get together and disperse. His eyes made Jiang Yan feel cold, and she couldn't believe that Zhao Fan would say these words.

"You...... Must be joking with me, right? Jiang Yan reluctantly pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled, she still stubbornly tried to stuff the bank card into Zhao Fan's pocket, but was slapped away by him impatiently.

Zhang Li, who came from behind, saw this scene and her eyes widened. "Security! Security guard! Come over here and get these two people out!" Her shrill voice echoed through the living room.

Zhang Li walked to Jiang Yan, who was standing still, and pulled her up and wanted to go back. "What are Yeon-yeon still standing for? We don't care about him if he is so ignorant, sooner or later he will regret it! ”

Jiang Yan couldn't come back to her senses when Zhao Fan said that the two of them were cut in two. Zhao Fan's resolute and emotionless words always echoed in her mind. "Is this really the end of it? No, I don't believe it! Zhao Fan still has mine in his heart! ”

Jiang Yan wanted to break free of Zhang Li's hand that held her, but she tried to turn around and chase Zhao Fan back. "Yeon-yeon! Obedient! What are you going to do! This is the first time Zhang Li shouted at Jiang Yan with such a stern dialogue.

Zhang Li had already taken precautions this time, and she restrained Jiang Yan's thin waist with her arms to prevent her from running away again. "What are you doing! Don't come and help yet! Zhang Li angrily scolded the security guards watching the play.

The security guard finally moved, and he teamed up with Zhang Li to pull Jiang Yan, who had been struggling, back to her own room and lock her up. "You let me out! Mother! Open the door! Jiang Yan banged on the door in the room, and the strong and heavy door panel was shaken by her slap.

"Mom is all for your good, you calm down now." Zhang Li hardened her heart, threw down this sentence and left. And Zhao Fan, who was not stopped by Jiang Yan, returned to the hospital smoothly.

Mother Zhao cried and cried along the way, she still had some resentment in her heart, she could have easily got the medical bills, but was stopped by Zhao Fan for her worthless self-esteem. She knew that Zhao Fan was for her own good, but she couldn't get better without medical expenses for Zhao's father's treatment.

Looking at Zhao's father lying on the hospital bed dying, Zhao's mother was sad. The tears that had been finally stopped burst out in an instant, and she knelt beside Zhao's father's hospital bed with her legs and buried her face in Zhao's father's hands.

"That's it! Lao Zhao, your life is too bitter! What can I do? Yes! Zhao's mother's mournful cry came from the ward, and everyone who passed by the door couldn't help but look sideways.

"Mom......" Zhao Fan tried to pull his mother up from the ground, but Zhao's mother ignored him and still stubbornly knelt on the ground. Mother! It's all because I don't have the ability to hurt you and Dad! Zhao Fan choked up, and his words were intermittent.

"Yo, I didn't come at the right time, did I? Your father isn't going to leave today, is he? Zhang Li's characteristic condescending tone came from outside the half-hidden door.

Mother Zhao turned her head excitedly, her face was red and her neck was thick, and she turned her head. "Phew! What nonsense are you talking about, our old Zhao is fine! I warn you not to curse us! Mother Zhao shook her body and wanted to straighten up and rush towards Zhang Li to settle the account.

"Hehe, don't be angry. Besides, you cried like that, and you didn't know that you thought he was gone. Zhang Li leaned against the door and said coolly.

Zhao's motherly chest rose and fell violently, "You! You! You! Her usual sharp teeth are completely inadequate in front of Zhang Li. Zhao Fan, who was standing silently on the side, went over and patted her on the back.

"What's the matter? Didn't you just kneel in front of us Jiang Yan pitifully? Now she looks like a tigress. Zhang Li walked into the ward, still unforgiving.

The purpose of her coming here this time was not to save Zhao's mother's face, Zhang Li walked straight to Zhao Fan's side, and looked at him arrogantly.

"Your face doesn't look like your parents, you can still look at it. No wonder our Jiang Yan is fascinated by you. Zhang Li opened her high-quality leather handbag and rummaged for something.

Zhao Fan, who was presumptuously by her, frowned in displeasure, and he dodged away to keep a distance from Zhang Li. "Jiang Yan and I are already over, what are you still doing?"

Zhang Li looked up ridiculously when she heard his words, "Young man, how can I believe what you said?" You take this check, don't pester Jiang Yan anymore! She finally pulled out a small stack of checks from her bag and wrote them with a brush.

Zhao's mother, who watched her movements, had her eyes lit up, and she looked at the check in her hand with longing. No one noticed that Zhao's father, who was lying quietly on the hospital bed, had already woken up.

Zhang Li finished writing the check and left regardless of the family's reaction. Mother Zhao carefully took the thin piece of paper and cried with joy. "Lao Zhao! I'm not saved! She shoved the check into Zhao's father's feeble palm.

"You...... You're kneeling down, aren't you! Ahem. Father Zhao felt that all the blood in his body rushed to the brain, and his breath in and out was not as good as his breath for a while, and he was in shock in an instant. The doctor hurriedly came, and after half a day of first aid, he was still unable to return to the sky.

Looking at Zhao's father who was covered with a white cloth, Zhao's mother sat on the ground in a daze without the slightest reaction. Just when everyone was not paying attention, Zhao's mother jumped down from the wide open window.

Zhao Fan, whose parents died in one day, became even more silent, and he disappeared after simply taking care of his parents' funeral. No one knew where he had gone, whether he was alive or dead.

The large LCD TV in the living room played the most popular idol movies at the moment, but none of Lin Ran and Jiang Xiao, who were sitting on the sofa, paid attention to the TV program.

"So you and Gu Cheng are pure business marriages? Your stepmother instigated your father to marry off your daughter, who was useless to the family, in exchange for resources and cooperation. Tsk, this is really a real father. Lin Ran chewed the potato chips in his mouth and complained.

If this hadn't happened to her, Jiang Xiao would have laughed sarcastically when she heard her now. "That's right, it's really my father." She wanted to laugh but couldn't.

Lin Ran saw her gloomy gaze and handed over the potato chips in his hand. "Don't think about it, it's useless to think about all this happening. So what do you do now? Do you want to live like this with Gu Cheng for the rest of your life? ”

Jiang Xiao, who took the potato chips but didn't have the appetite to eat them, pinched it in his hand, "I... I didn't know what to do, I had to take it one step at a time. Deep down, she resisted thinking about divorcing Gu Cheng.

Lin Ran patted her shoulder to soothe her sensitive emotions, "That's not the point, the point is your stepmother." What's Zhang Li's name, right? Hmph, her methods are amazing, you don't know how much you have suffered from her since you were a child. ”

For Zhang Li, Jiang Xiao didn't have much feeling in his heart. The Jiang family only cares about Jiang Tianwu, but now Jiang Tianwu's weight in her mind is decreasing little by little.

The two of them had chatted until late at night unconsciously, and Jiang Xiao had already fallen asleep on the soft and comfortable sofa. Lin Ran sighed at his friend's tired sleeping face, covered her with a thin quilt and turned off the lights.

Gu Cheng, who returned home after working overtime in the middle of the night, saw this scene, shook his head helplessly, tiptoed to Jiang Xiao's side, and carried her back to the bedroom with the wrapped quilt.

He glanced at Lin Ran, who was sleeping alone on the sofa, and frowned, "I will definitely kick her out tomorrow." The villain inside him clenched his fists firmly and made an oath.

"It smells so good." Lin Ran, who was sleeping on the sofa with a sore back and a sore back, was woken up by the smell of rice, she twisted her sore neck and groped her way up to find her slippers.

"Miss Lin, you're up, wash up faster. Madame is ready and breakfast is waiting for you. The housekeeper smiled and carried Lin Ran's slippers that were placed in the corner to her feet. Lin Ran, who thanked the housekeeper, quickly washed up and ran to the restaurant.

At the dining table, Gu Cheng naturally used chopsticks to pick up Jiang Xiao's favorite side dishes and put them into her bowl. "Are you okay today? Can you come with me to the company? ”

"What's the matter?" Jiang Xiao, who was immersed in his job, didn't notice Gu Cheng's awkward attitude.

Lin Ran was eating breakfast with two hearts, and his ears couldn't wait to get between the two of them.

"Jiang Xiao has an appointment today! She's going to go shopping with me. Lin Ran stared at Gu Cheng, with the word "precaution" clearly written on his face.

Gu Cheng took advantage of Jiang Xiao's inattention and glared at Lin Ran fiercely, full of warning.

"I'll take you to a nice restaurant when I have time that night." Gu Cheng still didn't give up his plan.
