He Dehou looked at her expression, smiled, and then took a sip of his cup of tea: "You can't get used to drinking this green tea?" ”

"This ...... I think I'd better forget it. Lin Ran put down the cup with a wry smile, "I'm still used to coffee, and if it's tea, I'm also used to adding sugar and lemon." ”

"For an old man like me, I can't stand coffee as a young person." He Dehou also laughed, "Take it easy, it's not a big deal, it's just that I want someone to talk to." ”

Lin Ran silently answered in her heart, wouldn't it be good to find your son if this is the case?

"I thought that after what happened before, you would have to take at least a few days off before you continued to take classes." He Dehou looked at the tea leaves rising and falling in the cup, and said thoughtfully, "Are you okay?" I heard that you got sick after the banquet? ”

"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't be sitting here, would I?" Lin Ran looked at the cup of tea in front of her, as if she was considering whether to take the risk of trying it again, she had long known that it was impossible to hide that matter from He Dehou, "It's just two men who didn't see the situation clearly." ”

She lightly summed up the bloody storm at the banquet that day and even before it in such a sentence, but obviously both of them knew what was going on, but there were some things that were really not suitable for being put on the table.

And...... It is also possible that He Dehou's youngest son was involved.

He Dehou finally put down the porcelain cup in his hand: "So, where do you think they came from?" ”

"I don't know, because I've been here for too short a time." Lin Ran felt that telling the truth at such a time was something that only a fool with no IQ to speak of would do, "But it is estimated that it is either the Qin family or my cousin's people, and only the forces of these two parties will attack me." ”

He Dehou did not make any comments on this sentence: "Do you need a few bodyguards?" ”

"That's exactly what I want to say," Lin Ran raised her eyes and looked directly into He Dehou's eyes, "I'm going to hand it over to Uncle Cheng, do you have any candidates to recommend?" ”

He Dehou leaned forward slightly, and Lin Ran couldn't read the emotion in his eyes for a while: "Let Uncle Cheng do it, maybe you don't feel at ease to use the person I recommend." ”

Lin Ran rarely raised her eyebrows in front of outsiders, she didn't expect He Dehou to say this sentence in front of her: "Why do you say that?" ”

"We both know in our hearts," He Dehou slowly filled himself with a cup of tea, "neither of us trusts each other, so I guess we don't need to say anything, do we?" ”

"As you said, the two of us are just using and being used." Speaking of which, Lin Ran simply didn't pretend, and leaned on the back of the seat to face He Dehou relaxedly, "But for now, we don't really know what each other wants." ”

"And I don't want to tell you about it just yet." A sharp light flashed in He Dehou's eyes.

Lin Ran smiled and lowered his head slightly: "What a coincidence, I am the same." ”

"But obviously, we have a common opponent at the moment," He Dehou said slowly while sipping tea, "The Qin family, and the person who used my son as a pawn—so we still have to be united for the time being, aren't we?" ”

"That's right." Lin Ran nodded, "Then I'll just say it directly, you should already know the Qin family's current actions, right?" ”

"The batch of goods in Qin Wenlin's hand?" He Dehou asked, "That guy is really getting older and more confused, and he can think of this kind of trick." ”

The smile on the corner of Lin Ran's mouth had already revealed an obvious sarcastic look: "It's not so much that the older he gets, the more confused he becomes, I tend to say that he is in a hurry, you know, for so many years, he has long been accustomed to the status of being the same in the Qin family and even Su City, and he has been made to such an embarrassing appearance that everyone can see, how can he not be in a hurry?" ”

"So, you want to bring him down now?" He Dehou asked.

"At least not now," Lin Ran turned her gaze to He Dehou, "I don't have that big appetite, I don't have that much energy, and I'm not that stupid in front of everyone." ”

He Dehou nodded approvingly: "So what are you going to do?" ”

"How do you do it......" Lin Ran changed to a more comfortable posture, and then said softly as if talking to herself, "Let me think about it." "Butterfly

He Dehou didn't urge Lin Ran to come up with a plan for him immediately, he looked at the girl in front of him who was not very old, and suddenly thought of his two sons.

He thought that if one of his sons could have Lin Ran's wrists, he wouldn't have to worry so much.

He Dehou sighed in his heart and picked up his teacup: "I don't want to care about this matter, you can do what you want, my subordinates...... You can take it and use it as much as you want. ”

"It doesn't take many people," Lin Ran came back to his senses from his thoughts, "I just want to move a little, I don't want too many things." ”

The girl raised her hand and straightened her hair, and her voice was calm: "Mr. He, you don't have to worry, I have no interest in your status." ”

He Dehou, who was seen through the deepest worries in his heart, took a sip of tea in disguise: "So what do you want?" ”

"I don't think I need to report this to you, do I?" Lin Ran just smiled faintly, "Besides, I don't want to say anything false." ”

The man who knew he had said the wrong thing laughed awkwardly, feeling that he couldn't control himself a little because of his mood swings: "Sorry, I didn't try to spy on anything. ”

Lin Ran spoke again indifferently: "It's okay, I knew someone would ask that." Speaking of which, it suddenly occurred to me that I hadn't seen your second son during the time I had been in Yancheng? ”

mentioned his second son, He Dehou's smile couldn't help but be doting: "He has never been interested in these things, he opened a gallery by himself, and all his energy is devoted to that." ”

Gallery?

Lin Ran's eyebrows didn't move, but she couldn't help but repeat these two words in her heart, why do people who don't care about the family business like to paint, his brother is, and the second son of the He family is too: "Is that so?" I also wondered at first why you only introduced me to your eldest son. ”

After a few words of greeting each other, Lin Ran got up to say goodbye, He Dehou originally planned to keep her to stay for a meal, but Lin Ran said that he still had something to deal with, so he got up and left.

After leaving the teahouse, a man in a black suit who had been waiting outside the door for a long time quickly followed Lin Ran's steps, leaned over and whispered in her ear: "Miss, I found it." ”

"Well, how do you say that?" Lin Ran straightened her collar with a calm face.

The man's voice was extremely low: "He opened a gallery in the south of the city, and it is said that the business is good, but I checked all the money, and it is all clean." ”

"Clean?" Lin Ran sneered, opened the door and sat in her car, and the man also sat in the back seat behind her, "The cleaner it is, the stranger it is......"

"You mean, keep looking?" The man asked respectfully.

Lin Ran waved his hand: "No, if I go down, I will probably startle the snake, Yang Yi, you help me find a person's common phone number and email address, etc., and the information will be sent to you when I go back." ”

"Do you need to inform Mr. Cheng?" Yang Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally began to ask.

"No, he'll definitely ask me what happened later." Lin Ran glanced back at the man, and his apricot eyes were full of smiles, "Thank you." ”

The man nodded, then got out of the car in a regular manner, and watched the driver leave straight away with Lin Ran.

After Lin Ran came back from the teahouse, she sat on the ground by the coffee table alone, not knowing what she was thinking, and she didn't even hear Uncle Cheng knocking on the door and coming in to ask her how to solve dinner.

Seeing her like this, Uncle Cheng felt very strange.

After all, he hadn't seen Lin Ran like this for a long, long time.
