Chapter 9 A Long Insight
After talking to Lin Ran, Zhou Xixue and Qiao Jingyi sat and chatted on the sofa in the living room, Qiao Jingyi reached out and poured a cup of tea: "It's good to solve it, otherwise our family and the Qin family will be in a stalemate, and it will be difficult to announce this matter at An An's coming-of-age ceremony." ”
"I'm afraid it's not easy to solve on the Qin family's side," Zhou Xixue sighed, "After all, it's our Qin family who climbs no matter what." ”
Qiao Jingyi didn't care: "It's their son who has fallen in love with An An, and it's not that we forced Hanhai to give up the person he likes to live with An An, how can we take advantage of it." ”
In fact, Qiao An'an and Qin Hanhai's contact was tacitly approved by him, and Qiao Jingyi was also happy to see the current result.
Isn't it clear which of his own daughters or stepdaughters will have a greater boost for him if he marries into the Qin family?
"I'm just worried about this, Mrs. Qin's eyes are above the top, and no one feels that she is up to grade, and she can accept Ran Ran not because the old man ...... back then" Zhou Xixue realized that she had missed her mouth, and quickly interrupted her halfway through what she said.
However, Qiao Jingyi was immersed in his own little abacus, and he didn't hear what she said, just perfunctory reassurance: "Don't worry, An An, you don't know yet?" is well-behaved and sensible, and looks likeable, they will definitely like An An when they come into contact. ”
"I hope so." She said with a headache.
Early the next morning, Zhou Xixue deliberately got up early to make breakfast, and when she saw Lin Ran coming down, she hurriedly greeted her: "Ran Ran come and sit, I made soy milk and boiled porridge, what do you want to eat?" ”
"No, I made an appointment with my classmates to go out to eat, and then went to the library group to check the reference cases." Lin Ran said lightly, "I may live there at night, and it's inconvenient to come back too late after reading a book." ”
After that, without waiting for his mother to reply, he hurriedly changed his shoes and went out.
She slowed down and stood next to the landscape lake in the community thinking about her thoughts.
In fact, there are any classmates, but after most of her heart was cold last night, she didn't want to stay in that perfect looking home at all.
Lin Ran smiled self-deprecatingly, if she left, then that home would be truly perfect.
Taxis are not allowed to enter the community, she went out in a hurry, and forgot to call a car to pick herself up in advance, so she had to walk slowly to the gate in the cold wind of winter.
In a black car on the side of the road, Qin Yi put down the phone in his hand: "Second master, the things you asked us to deal with have been dealt with, and several investors have the intention of cooperating, do you think you have started to arrange the meeting?" ”
Seeing that there was no answer, he turned his head to look and found that the man in the back seat, who had been closing his eyes and recuperating, had opened his eyes at some point and was staring out the window intently.
Looking at the line of sight, Qin Yi was stunned: "Isn't that Miss Lin?" ”
On the one hand, they came early in the morning because of the relationship between the Mo family and Zhou Xixue, she came from abroad, and it was reasonable that Mo Zhi, who happened to be in Suzhou City, should come to visit, and more importantly, there were some things to hand over to Lin Ran while Zhou Xixue was there.
Now that the Lord is here, do they still want to go to the Mo family?
Sitting on the co-pilot was a full-time assistant of Mo Zhi in Suzhou City, and he also said strangely at this moment: "It's true, why did Miss Lin go out so early in this winter?" ”
This assistant is a character who likes to gossip, and smiled: "Is it because Qin Xiaogongzi's matter is uncomfortable with her sister, so you go out for a walk?" Having said that, Qin Xiaogongzi really has no vision, putting aside his family background, Miss Lin's appearance and temperament are not first-class and good, no matter how you say it, she is more suitable than Miss Qiao to marry home, isn't it? ”
Mo Zhi's eyes flashed, and he asked in a deep voice: "Do you also think she is suitable to marry home?" ”
The assistant had been with him for a long time, and when he heard his tone, he didn't look angry, so he still smiled and said, "Where do I have the courage to try to climb Miss Gao Panlin." But after the news of the engagement came out, many wealthy families in Sioux City regretted that they were one step late and did not set a marriage contract with Miss Lin for their juniors in advance. ”
Looking at Lin Ran, who had wrapped his thin windbreaker jacket tighter, Mo Zhi was silent for a few seconds, and directly pushed the door and got out of the car.
His action startled the two people in the car, and the assistant asked confusedly, "Brother Qin, this and this...... Am I wrong about this? ”
Qin Yi was also blindsided, the second master couldn't see any emotion, why did he suddenly get out of the car?
And he didn't say a word, whether they would go to the Mo family or not, and whether the schedule in the back would be pushed back or not was not explained, it was really not like the style of the second master.
Lin Ran just took out her mobile phone from her bag and wanted to call a car to wait for her at the gate, when a sudden cold wind blew in her direction, making her shiver from the cold.
"Why is it so cold this day?" Lin Ran couldn't help but complain in a low voice, Suzhou City has just cooled down in the past two days, coupled with the humid climate, that kind of chill is really drilling into the cracks of the bones along every gap in the clothes, she regrets very much that she just grabbed a windbreaker and went out, seriously considering going to the rented house to change clothes and then find a place to deal with the current messy situation.
Suddenly, a shadow was cast in front of him, Lin Ran subconsciously took a step back, and was startled when he looked up and saw the person coming clearly: "Second uncle, why are you here?" ”
This silent appearance will scare people to death sooner or later!
"How do you go out early in the morning?" Who knew that Mo Zhi looked at her for a while, and suddenly asked such a sentence.
Lin Ran was a little weak-hearted: "It's not much, it's just that I got up too early in the morning, so I went out for a stroll and had breakfast by the way." ”
This matter is fundamentally different from what Qiao An'an did before, as far as she is concerned, Qiao An'an is just an outsider, but Zhou Xixue is her mother after all, and with the powerful power of outsiders like the Mo family to deal with relatives, Lin Ran has not been so unconscientious.
"Get in the car and take you to morning tea."
I thought that Mo Zhi was not familiar with Su Cheng, and the morning tea he said was to find a morning tea hall in a five-star hotel, but he didn't expect that after arranging a few words from his assistant, he guided Qin Yi, who was driving, to a very down-to-earth tea house next to the moat.
As soon as he entered the door, the boss behind the counter saw the person coming and greeted him with a smile: "Second master, old place?" ”
The box of the tea house is not a full box, but with a carved hollow wooden screen in the riverside position separated two or three tables of space, Mo Zhi seems to be really a regular customer, seeing him come, the boss did not arrange for the waiter to come to order, after the tea, the dim sum was quickly served.
The waiter girl poured tea for the two of them and then retreated lightly, and the unique tea fragrance Lin Ran recognized it as Jin Junmei, who was not used to drinking.
"Second uncle, this ......"
Mo Zhi, who was tasting genuine tea, glanced at her lightly: "Eat." ”
Mo Zhi has big rules, and he has always paid attention to food and sleep, even at the wine table where he must socialize, Lin Ran has lived in the capital and has a deep understanding of this.
"It's not like you haven't started eating yet." Lin Ran muttered, and after seeing Mo Zhi's eyes, she had to lower her head and eat, "Okay, okay, I'll just eat." ”
Lin Ran was worried about something, she didn't have much appetite, and she said that she would go out for breakfast in the morning just casually for a reason, even if the dim sum in this tea house was exquisite and authentic, she couldn't eat it after eating two or three.
If it was just Qiao An'an doing things alone, Lin Ran would not have taken this matter to heart at all, but Zhou Xixue's words yesterday really couldn't make her maintain a calm attitude of waiting and seeing, she really didn't know if she should fight back against her mother if it continued like this.
Peeked at Mo Zhi on the other side, and after weighing it again, Lin Ran still dispelled the idea of asking him for advice.
Her small movements were clearly seen by Mo Zhi, and after seeing her holding the tea cup in a daze after eating, he didn't break it: "Come with me to a place after eating." ”
Seeing that Lin Ran's eyes were dazed, he snorted lightly: "There is a small tea party held by an old acquaintance, and by the way, there will be an auction, if you don't have any major events, you can go together for a long time." ”
Mo Zhi, who has never spoken unquestionably, will patiently explain the reason to others, and if he is seen by others, he will definitely doubt his eyes.
Lin Ran didn't think about it so much, although she had never participated in this kind of small auction, but after all, she was in this circle, and she also knew that some occasions required to bring a female companion, so she immediately thought that Mo Zhi wanted to bring herself over for this reason, so she nodded at the man's inquiring gaze.
But he didn't see the gentle smile in the man's peach blossom eyes.
