"You ......" Just as Lin Ran wanted to say something, her mobile phone interrupted the conversation between the two.

She picked up the phone with a frown, and after listening to a few words, her face became more solemn, and after answering, she hung up the phone.

"You can't talk about ghosts at night, and you can't talk about people during the day." She shrugged her shoulders and looked at Mo Zhi seriously, "Then the almighty Second Master Mo, after my dear cousin heard that I was going to attend your banquet, he said that he had something to talk to me about, can you handle this?" ”

As soon as she entered the living room, Lin Ran even wondered if she had gone to the wrong door, because the atmosphere in the room gave her the illusion of walking into a funeral.

Sitting on the sofa was not only Lin Cheng who called to find her, but also Zhen Jing with a haggard face next to her.

And when Zhen Jing raised her head, Lin Ran's doubts became deeper, this woman who had always been gentle seemed to be ten years old, and the reddened eyes and tears on her face also showed that she had just stopped crying.

"You're here, sit down." Ning Jiaoli, who was sitting with Zhen Jing, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and rarely softened in front of Lin Ran.

But even so, her attitude towards Lin Ran still made Mo Zhi a little dissatisfied, and the gaze that looked at her was not half warm.

Lin Ran didn't notice this, she looked at Ning Jiaoli's attitude, and her heart was alarmed, something must have happened, otherwise this atmosphere would be too weird.

"Ranran, how are the preparations for the banquet?" After they sat down, Lin Cheng had a smile on his face again, but he could see at a glance that this was forced, "If you want us to help, just say it, it's all a family, what's so polite." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhen Jing finally raised her head and hurriedly said: "Yunlan hasn't called me for four days, you are all people with a way, hurry up and help find her, she is a little girl, in case something happens......

At this, she couldn't help but sob again.

This time, Lin Ran even had shock on her face.

But what made her unable to suppress her shock was not Zhen Jing's rather fussy move, after all, Zhen Yunlan is an adult, and it is possible that she did not contact her for a few days after playing too crazy.

What shocked her was that even in the case of Zhen Yunlan's possible accident, Lin Cheng's enthusiasm for the banquet where she and Mo Zhi were the protagonists did not fade at all, but became more fanatical.

If you want to say that Lin Zheng did this, Lin Ran can still believe it, but now...... But it's Lin Cheng.

This is really not in line with Lin Cheng's previous personality.

Her self-assertive opening made Lin Cheng very embarrassed, and he had to laugh dryly: "Forgive me, after all, Yunlan has never contacted us for so long, you see...... Can you take some time to help us? ”

This sentence made Mo Zhi's eyes sink, Zhen Yunlan just didn't contact the family for four days, the couple was in a hurry, when he investigated Lin Ran's past, he found that in fact, except for the old couple of the Lin family, the rest of the Lin family members had never cared about Lin Ran.

Zhen Jing is because of her body, which Mo Zhi doesn't understand, but as Lin Ran's cousin, Lin Cheng has never ignored it.

He was unhappy in his heart, but the smile on his face was even stronger, and after staring at Lin Ran's shock, he gently shook her hand and motioned for her to leave this matter to himself.

"Presumably Mr. Lin also knows that Ranran and I are busy preparing for the banquet," his attitude was decent but detached, "We can only say that we will try to find time to find out where Miss Zhen has gone." ”

But this answer did not satisfy Ning Jiaoli, who was an outsider, she stared at Mo Zhi and asked, "I don't know when Second Master Mo will let us know where Yunlan went?" After all, it's also a relative of my younger siblings, and I can't let go of this heart. ”

Finding that Mo Zhi's face was wrong, Lin Cheng gave Ning Jiaoli a look from the corner of his eye, but Ning Jiaoli, who wanted to be able to observe words and expressions, didn't seem to see it, and continued: "That commercial banquet is indeed going to be held soon, I hope you still find Yunlan before the banquet is held." Of course, if the two of them want to lose face at the banquet, it doesn't matter. ”

As soon as the words fell, Lin Cheng's face immediately turned dark, and he shouted in a low voice: "I think you are crazy!" What is this saying! ”

But Ning Jiaoli laughed disregardlessly: "The face of the Mo family is very important when you think about it, even if you don't care, your parents, relatives and friends will have opinions about her." Taking a step back, barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, I only care about the people in our family, but you have to worry about much more than I do. ”

She paused and looked at the two opposite with satisfaction: "I think that at the banquet, the scandal about the person who is the focus of attention broke out, which is very popular with many people, right?" ”

Although Lin Ran did a good job, she had to admit that even if Ning Jiaoli opened her mouth when she arrived, there were still media flocking to her.

Although she didn't care about this, it was impossible for others not to care.

Besides, she has always spread rumors and broke her legs to refute rumors, and Ning Jiaoli is clearly taking advantage of Zhen Yunlan's incident to avenge her previous revenge.

Mo Zhi could feel that after Ning Jiaoli finished saying those words, Lin Ran, who was sitting next to her, was trembling gently.

The man didn't make any comforting gestures to her, just looked at Lin Cheng, and even had a smile in his eyes.

A deep and pleasant voice finally broke the silence in the room: "I thought that you really wanted to find Zhen Yunlan, but now it seems that your actions and what you said can be said to be inconsistent." ”

Lin Cheng was eager to say something, but he was frozen in place by Mo Zhi's aura: "But don't worry about you, I can promise you that the banquet will go smoothly." If someone maliciously destroys it, she will definitely not be able to afford the consequences. ”

Glancing at Zhen Jing, who was still sobbing with her head down, and Lin Cheng, who was uneasy, Mo Zhi stood up and politely said goodbye: "Since it's okay, then we will also leave, I hope that during the banquet, the two of you can be present as promised." ”

After leaving Lin Cheng's house in silence, Lin Ran exhaled slowly, although it was spring, she felt a chill from her heart.

"As I said, you don't have to worry about it." The man standing next to her said, "I'm here." ”

But Lin Ran just tugged at the corners of her mouth and showed a wry smile: "I'm not worried about anything, it's just that when I saw Lin Cheng's appearance today, I suddenly felt that I was ...... back then."

Speaking of this, Lin Ran didn't say any more, she said softly: "This matter will not end so easily, if you find it troublesome, I can do it alone-"

But before she could finish her words, the man pinched her chin and forced her to look up into his eyes.

"Can you do it alone?" Mo Zhi asked rhetorically, the smile in his eyes was like a beast that had found its prey, "Lin Ran, are you underestimating me?" I'm telling you, even if the sky falls, I'll be able to bear it for you. ”

In Lin Ran's more than 20 years of life, she has long been accustomed to handling most things alone, even when she was a child, even if she fell, she would not cry to attract the attention of adults like other children, but stood up by herself and patted the ashes on her body, as if nothing had happened.

It was as if the word dependency never existed in her dictionary.

She looked at Mo Zhi's eyes, her mind was blank, and she didn't know how to respond.

After a while, she slowly spoke: "It's not that I don't believe in your ability, I'm just ......"

I just don't believe in myself and can solve problems with another person.

But Mo Zhi understood her unspoken words into another meaning, he let go of the hand that was pinching her chin, and his voice was soft and a little unbelievable: "A woman is just a woman, what kind of storm can be set off, if I can't even handle this matter well, I better go home as soon as possible and gnaw on the old man." ”

This man seems to always have a slightly frivolous smile, but there is never a trace of warmth in his eyes, which makes people cold all the way to their hearts.

Only when I am for her, there will be curiosity, anger, laughter, and even ...... in those good-looking peach blossom eyes There was tenderness that he didn't even notice.

She was almost completely attracted to this man.
