Chapter 376: What about you and your second uncle?
"Me and my second uncle?" Lin Ran smiled as if she had heard a joke, "The situation of the two of us is different, he is my elder." ”
Ji Xin obviously didn't understand: "What's the difference, isn't it all a problem for two people to get along?" ”
"People are different, I ...... with my second uncle" Lin Ran stopped halfway through, because she didn't know what words to use to describe the relationship between her and Mo Zhi.
Whether it was the friendship of the past or what, Lin Ran couldn't tell it anymore.
Fortunately, Ji Xin was not particularly persistent on this issue: "Do you think I should run away from home for a few days?" ”
Lin Ran was taken aback, and hurriedly dispelled her thoughts: "Don't you hurry up, stay at home obediently these days, don't make your family angry again." ”
"But staying at home is too depressing, I don't know what to say now," Ji Xin bit the straw in frustration, "My uncle has always had a dark face, and my aunt's face is not good-looking, I would rather come to work." ”
"You just take it as a cold war, and then slowly de-escalate." Lin Ran thought about it, he really didn't have much experience in this kind of thing, "Someone has to take the first step." ”
After drinking two drinks, Ji Xin's face finally got a little better, Lin Ran was relieved, looked at the time, she decided to go back to the dormitory, pack up her things and go to the library to finish the work of saving books in her hands.
For the next nearly two weeks, Lin Ran lived exactly like an ordinary college student, going to and from class to eat in the cafeteria and go to the library.
In a blink of an eye, it was Friday a week later, and for Lin Ran, although there was not much activity on this day, the day's professional class was like a day on a roller coaster, which caused her to go back to Mo Zhi's villa in order to get a change of clothes, and when she opened the door and saw Mo Zhi at home, her first reaction was what happened again? !
"Do you have any plans for the past two days?"
As soon as Mo Zhi opened his mouth, Lin Ran sadly knew that his bad premonition had come true.
"No, but if Second Uncle can let me rest for two days, I will probably be grateful to you." Lin Ran sat on the sofa and said expectantly.
After hearing Lin Ran's answer, Mo Zhi was silent for a while, as if he was fighting fiercely in his heart.
Lin Ran didn't urge him, picked up today's newspaper from the table, and read it intently.
"There will be a banquet tomorrow night," Mo Zhi rarely hesitated, "It was opened in the name of the Fang family and me, and it was said to the outside world that it was for Fang's birthday, do you want to come?" ”
"This banquet is not as simple as it seems?" Lin Ran raised her eyebrows and asked sharply.
"Yes, in order to set up a bureau, in order to lure the snake out of the hole, it has something to do with both of our companies, I can only tell you so much." He paused, "But you need a decoy that catches your target's eye." ”
Lin Ran understood: "You mean me?" ”
If it is related to Mo Zhi's company, the best bait is naturally herself as Mo Erye's niece, and no one will be more suitable for this task than herself.
"You just have to come with me, and I'll take care of the rest." Mo Zhi explained.
"Can you keep me safe?" Lin Ran raised her head and looked at Mo Zhi with sparkling eyes.
Mo Zhi said very firmly: "Of course." ”
"When does it start?" Lin Ran hooked the corners of her lips and asked.
The banquet was set for the evening of the second day, and the location was in one, well, in Lin Ran's words, the most suitable description was the first choice of villa for the hostages, the villa was very large, but because it was too far away from the city, and it was a place to develop by itself, even the water and electricity were moved by the Fang family themselves.
Although the starting time was seven o'clock in the evening, after eating at noon, Mo Zhi's people had already begun to prepare one after another, and when they saw Fang Yuan also appear with people, Lin Ran was surprised for a second, and then immediately reflected.
After all, it was for Fang Chi's birthday, and since he had returned to China, it was not normal for Fang to not attend.
She stood on the second floor, watching the people below busy arranging everything, Mo Zhi came from the other end of the corridor and threw a piece of clothing to her: "Go change clothes, and then there is something to do." ”
Lin Ran shook it away and looked at it: "Evening dress? Didn't I bring it? ”
"Your ones are too long," Mo Zhi said, "You dance with me in the opening dance, those are not suitable." ”
Lin Ran blinked and squeezed out a word from his throat: "Huh? ”
In fact, Lin Ran is a person who has the courage to try, it can be said that she has done most of the normal or abnormal things, all kinds of strange events emerge in endlessly, and there have been a lot of things since the family banquet, she has long been surprised.
However, she did not dance, neither men nor women.
Hearing this request, she was stunned for a while, and only after confirming that she heard correctly, she asked, "Second uncle, what kind of dance are you dancing?" ”
"It's just an ordinary dance," looking at Lin Ran's expression, Mo Zhi understood something, "You can't dance?" ”
Lin Ran turned his head and began to concentrate on the hall where the banquet was to be held.
"Very well, now you need to hurry up and change your clothes, and at least let you know what the dance steps are like before the party starts." Mo Zhi nodded and said, "What are you still rubbing?" ”
Lin Ran obediently put on the dress, and then a makeup artist came over to help her put on makeup and prepared a complete set of jewelry for her, because Lin Ran had never pierced her ears, and the matching earrings were changed to ear clips.
At this time, Mo Zhi walked in and brought a watch to Lin Ran's wrist: "Bring this, there is a tracker in it, and a locator is also installed in the ear clip." ”
After a pause, he continued, "Although I will always be there for you, these things carry safety points. ”
She nodded, I have to say, Mo Zhi's move made her feel a little nervous, calmed down a little, Lin Ran decided not to think about it anymore, raised her head and looked at Mo Zhi with a disgusted face: "Second uncle, I think this dress is a little unsuitable for me, it's better to give me the one you gave me in Suzhou City before, it's better to ......"
"It's a makeshift garment."
Lin Ran suddenly became melancholy: "I did you such a big favor, can't you give me a high-end dress?" ”
She's not picky, she's just trying to stall for time.
After all, she really didn't want to go down and dance.
"The high-end ones are all custom-made," Mo Zhi reached out to help her sort out the feather decorations on her shoulders, "That skirt you have already worn once on a big occasion, it is not suitable." ”
Lin Ran was even more unhappy: "That's also in Sioux City...... Wait, second uncle, why do you have the ready-to-wear you found temporarily? Wasn't it something that was settled yesterday? You can't have someone else in mind, right? ”
When he thought of this, Lin Ran's heart swelled with a strange anger.
Mo Zhi patted her head: "What's so hard about finding a dress?" Where do you think about it, is it really a problem with IQ? ”
After everything was ready, it was close to the time for the banquet to start, Lin Ran and Mo Zhi stood at the door of the preparation room together, through this door, from the crack in the door, you could see the outside lights and the faint sound of conversation, she didn't feel anything waiting and waiting, and suddenly became nervous again, and couldn't help but take a few deep breaths.
Mo Zhi's hand wrapped around her waist: "You really didn't skip?" ”
"Nope."
"Not once?"
"Not even five times a bit!"
"Didn't you take a dance class in college?"
"The first semester of freshman year is a mandatory physical training ......"
Mo Zhi was silent for two seconds, leaned over and gave Lin Ran a hug, and whispered, "Follow me." ”
Maybe what Mo Zhi said was too reliable, the low magnetic voice had been circulating in Lin Ran's mind, and when she came back to her senses, it was dark in front of her, and Mo Zhi had already pulled her forward, standing under the light of a chasing light.
Mo Zhi took her hand, and the other hand held her waist, Lin Ran put his hand on Mo Zhi's shoulder as if he was being pulled by something, and followed his steps to move forward and backward with the music.
She desperately recalled the dancing scenes she had seen in her mind, one moment it was all kinds of movies, the other moment it was the dance steps that Mo Zhi had just taught her temporarily, and just halfway through it, she felt that she had stepped on something.
She looked down at Mo Zhi's feet.
