Chapter 345: Second Uncle Tell Me a Bedtime Story
Just when Lin Ran was upset about this matter, the mobile phone she threw on the car seat began to ring, Lin Ran glanced at the phone, and then turned on the Bluetooth headset: "Su Mingyi? ”
"Where are you and what sounds like so much chaos around you?" Su Mingyi on the other side of the phone asked.
"I'm in the car, I told you a long time ago to let you change your mobile phone, no matter where I am, you will ask first," Lin Ran closed the window for ventilation, "Something?" ”
"It's not a big deal," Su Mingyi seemed to be flipping through some materials, "It's just that there's a piece of news, I guess you'll be quite interested." ”
"Did I ever tell you I hate it when people hang my appetite?" Lin Ran raised her eyebrows and said.
Su Mingyi probably also heard that Lin Ran was irritated about something, and after he laughed dryly, he stopped selling it: "I let my people keep an eye on Yan Qingping for a while, and it turned out that he had met with a woman many times. ”
"If it was just this matter, I wouldn't have called you," Su Mingyi continued, "The key is that the woman's origin is not simple. ”
Lin Ran finally heard something worthy of her attention: "It's not easy to let Su Mingyi say a word to you...... What is the origin? ”
"I asked them to use Yan Qingping's photo to check, and then got this woman's information," Lin Ran could hear Su Mingyi lighting a cigarette for herself, "As a result, I found out that this woman used to work in a foreign financial company, do you want to guess who her former boss was?" ”
Lin Ran's slender fingers tapped on the seat: "Yan Qingping? ”
“…… Did you know the news in the first place? A few minutes later, Su Mingyi asked faintly.
"I'm guessing," Lin Ran confessed, "are you sure?" ”
"I'm very sure, although Yan Qingping has changed a fake identity without any flaws, I still recognize it at a glance." Su Mingyi took a deep puff of his cigarette, "But it's strange, judging from the news from over there, Yan Qingping can be said to be obedient to this woman, and he doesn't look like a boss at all." ”
"Strange, then why don't you just be the boss of the company yourself?" Lin Ran seemed to be talking to herself, "And what will her purpose be......
Su Mingyi laughed: "I thought so at first, but then I thought of something...... Didn't you always think that there was a mastermind behind Yan Qingping that no one knew about? ”
Lin Ran suddenly seemed to think of something again: "Do you remember when I told you that I met Yan Qingping in the bar?" ”
"You mean the woman?" Su Mingyi also frowned on the other side of the phone, "But she, are you sure?" ”
Lin Ran finally straightened out these seemingly chaotic clues in her mind: "Can you find out what her identity is?" ”
"It's a little difficult," Su Mingyi rummaged through a pile of messy papers with the phone, "After all, I look at the traces of forgery in this information, and I can only know that it is indeed this woman, but the information found from the company's computer, you should understand." ”
"Again, you should have a picture of her in your hand? Just don't know if it's true or not? Lin Ran shrugged her shoulders and asked again.
Su Mingyi gave her an affirmative reply: "Do you have time to meet with me this weekend?" ”
Lin Ran thought about it and found that she really didn't have anything to do: "Okay, I'll go to you on Saturday and call you when I go out." ”
After hanging up the phone, Lin Ran sighed, and perfunctory Yu Mixia's question in a few words, she felt that she seemed to have caught some extremely important clues, if she didn't guess wrong, maybe she could really know something extraordinarily useful this time.
Lin Ran was uncomfortable staying in the dormitory because of a stomach problem in the past two days, so Uncle Cheng, who knew about it, contacted Mo Zhi and asked her to go back to live there.
She got out of Qin Yi's car, and when she got home, she felt that her whole body was about to fall apart, she moved her stiff neck, and greeted the mysterious person back and forth in her heart I don't know how many times.
If greeting in his heart can make that person disappear, Lin Ran thought a little bitterly, then the mysterious person probably didn't exist in this world eight hundred years ago, right?
"What are you thinking, your face is about to wrinkle into a bun." As soon as Mo Zhi opened the door, he saw her like this, and couldn't help but tease.
"Thinking about how to save the world." Lin Ran felt that she just wanted to get a good night's sleep now, "I'll go take a shower and go to bed." ”
It's just that this good wish can only be a wish after all, and Mo Zhi will never let her go to bed without eating anything.
By the time she really lay down on the bed, it was already after being stared at by Mo Zhi after drinking porridge and eating, but the strange thing was that even though the sleepiness was still strong, Lin Ran couldn't sleep.
Her mind was swirling with all the clues she knew today, and she felt that although she had clues in her hand, there was still a thick fog in front of her, and she couldn't raise her hand to clear the fog and see the truth behind it.
"I thought you were asleep," I don't know how long it took to stare at the ceiling before Mo Zhi pushed the door in, "Or have you already woken up?" ”
"I don't know, maybe I really got some sleep." Lin Ran moved to the side, maintaining a flat lying position to make room for Mo Zhi, "Anyway, it's half asleep, who knows." ”
"What are you thinking?" Mo Zhi sat beside her and suddenly asked.
Lin Ran was silent for a while: "A story about betrayal and spies. ”
"Sounds like you don't want to tell me."
"I may say it later, but obviously not now." Lin Ran turned to the side and shrunk into the soft quilt, "How about the second uncle tell me a story?" The more amiable kind, such as bunnies dancing with dolls and the like. ”
Mo Zhi was helplessly silent for half a minute, and then said in frustration: "How about I tell you about the original business negotiation?" ”
"That's fine." Lin Ran didn't pick it, and agreed to it.
Although she finally fell asleep in Mo Zhi's voice, a nightmare haunted her persistently.
Lin Ran felt that there had always been such a thin voice, humming a song in her ear, a children's song, so gentle that it seemed to drown her in it. She remembered that afternoon, it was also such a dusk, after Zhou Xixue hung up the phone calls she didn't know how many times, she stood alone at the door of the class, answering the teacher's questions and the sound of the parent-teacher meeting in the classroom behind her.
When I came out of school with my schoolbag on my back, I happened to see Zhou Xixue and Qiao Jingyi holding Qiao An'an's hand, and a family of three walked out of the mall, carrying a large and small bag of shopping bags.
The first time she completely broke out - once she always cared about her mother and suppressed everything - and the first time she turned her face with Zhou Xixue, and finally slammed the door and left...... Lin Ran didn't know if everything at that time foreshadowed something, or what was destined for something.
When she was in the study with Mr. Lin that day, the old man sighed and said that her mother and Qiao Jingyi met too quickly, and she was not mature enough to deal with such a painstaking relationship.
And then, what happened?
Afterward...... The mother is not so much a mother as a stranger with whom she does not have a good relationship, and her brother has also left her and wandered away from the family.
She was left alone, standing alone, hanging from each other.
Lin Ran felt as if a black hole had appeared in his memory, and he sucked all the faces of those people into it at once, and the closer he got to his heart, the more he wanted to escape.
She snapped her eyes open and sat up from the bed, her heart pounding. Lin Ran pressed her chest, maybe it was because she was breathing too hard, maybe it was an illusion, she felt like a needle prick in her chest.
Mo Zhi, who had never left, had long been quarreled by the sound of her nightmares, he sat beside her silently, looking at her quietly in the dark, and then sighed, tentatively put his hand on Lin Ran's waist, and after not being rejected, he slowly climbed up her spine, stroking her back again and again, like comforting a frightened cat. Waiting for her breathing and heartbeat to calm down, her tense muscles slowly relaxed.
He had never really been involved in this girl's past, so at this time, he could only sit here silently and use his body temperature to tell the other party that she was no longer alone.
