After lunch, An Ran heard that An Jin was in the mansion today, so he went to the Laiyin Pavilion.

An Jin and Lin Yin saw her coming, and the two looked at each other and smiled, "I was just about to ask someone to call you, but I didn't expect you to come over first." ”

An Ran walked over with a smile, and then sat down, "Is there something wrong with Father looking for Ah Ran?"

"It's nothing important, it's just that a lot of things have happened recently, and the young master's election is imminent, so I still have something to say to Ah Ran. An Jin said.

Lin Yin on the side didn't speak, just quietly brewed tea, her expression was very gentle, and the corners of her mouth were always smiling.

An Ran bowed slightly, "Ah Ran came here for these things. After speaking, she took out the Xuanhu Order and handed it back to An Jin.

"Yi'er has come back safely, and the Xuanhu Order should be returned to his father. An Ran said.

An Jin picked up the Xuanhu Order on the table, glanced at it, then put it away, and said, "Ah Ran, the election campaign will start in a few days, are you ready?"

An Ran bowed slightly, "Father, Ah Ran is ready." ”

"Most of what has happened recently has something to do with this young master election, and I think that when that time comes, I'm afraid it will be even more intense. An Jin said.

Whether it is An Xinning's death or Yi'er's disappearance, it is more or less because of this incident.

"Father, Ah Ran knows. ”

At this time, Lin Yin had already made tea and poured them two cups before she spoke: "No matter what, your father and I both believe that you can do it. ”

An Ran smiled lightly, "Ah Ran knows the intentions of my father and mother for me, and I will definitely try my best not to disappoint you." ”

"Okay, I won't say much else, I believe Ah Ran will be able to understand it in his heart. An Jin said.

After An Ran came back from the Laiyin Pavilion, Nan Lingye also just returned to Qinhuang Courtyard.

"Ye Lang is back. ”

"Well, can you have lunch?" Nan Lingye saw An Ran, and the first thing he asked was this.

An Ran nodded, and the two walked side by side to the pavilion, "Ye Lang went to investigate Doctor Han's affairs?"

"Everything can't be hidden from Ah Ran. Nan Lingye glanced at her with a smile.

An Ran met his eyes and smiled, "Is there any news?"

"Not yet, but I've ordered someone to continue the investigation, and I'll report as soon as I get news. ”

Nan Lingye and An Ran sat down on the stone chairs in the pavilion, and the two had a rare casual afternoon.

It's just that it didn't take long for Ping'er to come and report, "Miss, the fourth son asks to see." ”

Hearing this, An Ran frowned and muttered, "What is he doing here?" Let him go to the side hall and wait, I'll go over later." ”

"An Qing is here?" Nan Lingye asked lightly.

An Ran nodded, "I know Ye Lang won't want to see him, so I asked someone to take him to the side hall, I'll take a look, and I'll be back soon." ”

For An Qing, Nan Lingye is disgusted and hateful, if it weren't for the fact that he promised her and didn't take An Qing's life, I'm afraid An Qing wouldn't be alive now.

When An Ran came to the side hall, he saw An Qing sitting on the side, he saw her coming, got up and said, "A Ran is here." ”

"What are you looking for me?" An Ran looked indifferent, for An Qing, since An Anning's death, since he kidnapped An Yi, they have already torn their faces, and she doesn't have to pretend to call him the fourth brother like this, not to mention, An Qing is not worthy of this honorific title.

"Actually, it doesn't matter, Yi'er has returned, and Ah Ran should rest assured. An Qing said.

An Ran didn't answer, she was waiting, waiting for An Qing to continue, he came over specially, definitely not just to say this, right?

But don't forget, it was the deal he made with the Desperate Pavilion that kidnapped Yi'er.

An Ran looked at him, those sharp phoenix eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, An Qing didn't dare to look directly into her eyes, and coughed lightly twice to hide his uneasiness.

"Actually, I came here this time, mainly to discuss a cooperation with Ah Ran. An Qing said.

Hearing this, An Ran frowned slightly, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Cooperation?"

"That's right, cooperation, a collaboration that you and I can benefit from. ”

An Ran sneered, "Is there still any cooperation between you and me to talk about?" Or rather, you overestimate yourself." ”

When An Ran said this, although An Qing felt a little embarrassed, he didn't get angry, just smiled and said, "Ah Ran hasn't listened to me yet, why rush to refuse?"

An Ran glanced at him disdainfully, hooked the corners of his mouth, and said in a cold voice: "Then you should talk about it, what kind of cooperation, and how is it beneficial to you and me?"

An Qing thought that An Ran was finally interested, and his heart suddenly became energetic, and then said: "In a few days, the young master will be elected, and among the many children of the An family, Ah Ran also knows that the fourth brother also has a good chance of being elected." Besides, I've been in the Lord's house for so many years, so I'm naturally more comfortable taking care of it than others. Although I have some holidays with Ah Ran, but it is a trivial matter, I can promise Ah Ran, as long as you can help me win the position of the young master, I will take good care of the An family in the future, and I will definitely not treat all the children of the An family badly. ”

Listening to An Qing's words, An Ran lowered his head and played with the folding fan in his hand, and asked casually, "Finished?"

Looking at An Ran's appearance, An Qing couldn't help but swallow his saliva, "It's over." ”

Finally, An Ran slowly raised his eyes to look at him, and said word by word: "You said so much, but I still haven't heard it, what is the benefit of this so-called cooperation for me? ”

An Qing pulled the corners of her mouth slightly, "Ah Ran is a girl, no matter who is in charge of the house in the future, the main thing is to protect the An family and protect the clansmen, that is enough." As for Ah Ran, if you become a young master to someone with good intentions, and that person is not in harmony with you, I am afraid that the An family will not have a place for you in the future. As long as Ah Ran agrees with what I just said, I promise that you will be as beautiful as you are now, or rather, even more so than now. ”

Hearing this, An Ran only felt ridiculous, she looked at him coldly, and responded: "A good scenery is even worse." Do you think that the status of Empress Beichu is not noble and beautiful enough?"

An Qing was speechless by her, and couldn't answer for a while.

"In this way, Ah Ran is not interested in what I just said. An Qing said.

"The position of the young master has always been inhabited by capable people, if you really have the strength, why are you so uneasy?" An Ran sneered.

"I ......" An Qing was angry, he didn't expect that he would be humiliated like this by An Ran when he came this time, "Since Ah Ran is not interested, then let me not say it." After speaking, An Qing waved his sleeves and left.

Looking at An Qing's departing back, An Ran hooked the corners of his mouth and sneered disdainfully.
