Chapter Twenty-Five: The Wounded Old Man

Lin Ran immediately looked at Huo Chengyan with wide eyes.

"Since you want to thank me, it's better to make a promise to me," Huo Chengyan leaned into Lin Ran's ear and said softly to Lin Ran.

Lin Ran listened to Huo Chengyan's gentle voice, and his mood was so calm.

She was silent.

Taking advantage of Huo Chengyan's inattention, she immediately squatted down and slipped out of the gap in her arms.

"I'm going to be late for work!" Lin Ran said shyly as he ran out of the door.

The two of them sat quietly in the car.

Lin Ran never looked at Huo Chengyan.

Huo Chengyan put the back of his hand near his mouth and coughed deliberately, "Ahem......

Lin Ran didn't dare to look at Huo Chengyan.

She used the peripheral vision of her eyes to sneak a glance at Huo Chengyan, and she found that Huo Chengyan was looking at her.

Suddenly, she felt uncomfortable.

It was as if the deer in my heart was banging and knocking.

"What's wrong with me?" Lin Ran muttered silently in his heart.

"Could it be that I am emotionally attached to Mr. Huo. No," Lin Ran realized in his heart that he might have fallen in love with Huo Chengyan.

"No," Thinking of this, Lin Ran closed his eyes tightly and shook his head.

"Hey, what are you doing, don't get out of the car yet." Huo Chengyan scolded, and Lin Ran suddenly woke up.

It turned out that I had just been immersed in my imagination, and before I knew it, the car had arrived at the company.

Lin Ran hurriedly got out of the car and ran into the company.

In the company, Lin Ran's thoughts were confused.

Maybe she was still immersed in the whispers in Huo Chengyan's ear in the morning, and she fell into contemplation from time to time.

On the other side, Huo Chengyan received a call.

"Stinky boy, why haven't you been in touch with grandpa lately?" On the other end of the phone was the voice of Old Man Huo.

"Grandpa," Huo Chengyan happily heard Old Man Huo's voice like a child.

"Hey, stinky boy, I heard that you married a daughter-in-law?" Old Man Huo said to Huo Chengyan on the other end of the phone.

"Ah, grandpa...... Yes," Huo Chengyan didn't expect that the news that he and Lin Ran had received the certificate would reach Old Man Huo's ears.

"You unfilial stinky boy, you don't take your granddaughter-in-law to show me such an important event in your life." Old Man Huo pretended to be angry and said to Huo Chengyan.

In Huo Chengyan's impression, his parents were busy with work since he was a child, and the closest person to him was his grandfather.

"Tomorrow, hurry up and bring your granddaughter-in-law over and let me see my precious granddaughter-in-law." Old Man Huo couldn't wait to say to Huo Chengyan on the other end of the phone.

"Don't worry, grandpa, I'll take her to see you tomorrow." Huo Chengyan said to Old Man Huo.

"By the way, what do your parents think about this?" Old Man Huo asked by the way.

Because Old Man Huo also knew that Huo Jiaming and Su Mingzhen only wanted their son to marry the second lady of the Yu family.

Most of them are marriages for the sake of family business.

"My parents' side, it's still like that, as long as I don't marry Yu, whoever I marry, they won't be satisfied." Huo Chengyan did not shy away from telling his true words to Old Man Huo.

"Hehe, you stinky boy, in our era, the order of parents, the words of matchmakers."

"There's never a choice. Be content. Old Man Huo said easily, and his words were full of pampering.

"Oh, grandpa......" Huo Chengyan also lied to his grandfather.

"Then it's decided, tomorrow at noon, at the Bincheng Hotel, I want to meet my granddaughter-in-law in person, hehe." Old Man Huo hung up the phone happily.

In the evening, Huo Chengyan and Lin Ran were on their way to get off work together.

"Tomorrow at noon, let's meet my grandfather." Huo Chengyan suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.

"Huh?" Lin Ran looked at Huo Chengyan in surprise.

Huo Chengyan still had a serious face.

"Haven't heard of my grandfather?" Huo Chengyan asked Lin Ran rhetorically.

"I've heard that the founder of the Huo Group is also the chairman of our CPPCC in Bincheng, and he is very famous in the business and political circles, right?" Lin Ran recalled the rumors he had heard about the old man of the Huo family.

Huo Chengyan said to Lin Ran with a smile.

"Okay, I didn't do my homework."

When Lin Ran heard this, he immediately pouted and said to Huo Chengyan: "Hmph, you didn't tell grandpa about the agreement, right?" ”

"Otherwise, why would grandpa see me!" Lin Ran asked Huo Chengyan forcibly.

Huo Chengyan hesitated.

"Grandpa, he's not in good health, I can't let him know about it, besides, he will be very happy to see you." Huo Chengyan suddenly became serious.

Lin Ran didn't say anything anymore.

The next day, Lin Ran received a call from Huo Chengyan.

"Let the driver pick you up later, you go over first, I have something to do here, I'll be there later." Huo Chengyan hurriedly said to Lin Ran and hung up the phone.

"Hey, you ......" Before Lin Ran finished speaking, Huo Chengyan had already hung up the phone.

Lin Ran, who looked at the phone, breathed a long sigh of relief.

She picked up her coat and went out and got into the car.

In a gift shop, Lin Ran carefully selected gifts.

She was satisfied with choosing a crutch, and she heard Huo Chengyan say that Old Man Huo's crutches never left his hand.

So she carefully chose a mid-grade crutch.

Lin Ran thought to himself, maybe he could only express a little information, and he would definitely not be able to compare to the other crutches of the Huo family.

Lin Ran, who got into the car, nervously put his hand in front of him and held it tightly.

The car suddenly drove very slowly.

"What's wrong?" Lin Ran looked at the many people in front of her, the road was blocked and the water was impassable, she asked nervously.

"There's a car accident ahead, young lady." The driver turned to Lin Ran and said.

There is one more intersection to the agreed meeting place.

The car has not been able to move forward.

Lin Ran stayed in the car and waited anxiously.

She opened the car door and decided to get out of the car to see what was going on, and if she couldn't walk, she decided to walk to the agreed place.

Lin Ran walked forward, and she saw two cars colliding together, and the owner was anxiously theorizing.

An old man next to him injured his ankle in order to avoid the car, and was sitting on a stone on the side of the road, rubbing his feet, but he couldn't stand up.

On the side was his own crutch, which had been broken, and most of it was left unusable.

Passers-by are watching the excitement of the two cars, and no one cares about the old man on the side.

Lin Ran immediately stepped forward to help the old man.

"Grandpa, how are you?" Lin Ran asked the old man anxiously.

"Oops, kid, I've got a broken ankle and can't move." The old man said to Lin Ran.

"I got separated from the driver and didn't have a phone with me. ," the old man continued.

"Grandpa, I'd better take you to the hospital first." Lin Ran looked at the old man's feet, which were already a little red and swollen.

"No need girl, you are also very anxious, you can go first." The old man refused Lin Ran's help.

"It's okay grandpa, my business is not as important as your injury. I'll go call someone first, and you wait a minute. With that, Lin Ran ran to the car and called the driver.

The old man was carried away by the driver, Lin Ran followed, she picked up the broken crutches on the ground, and she looked at it thoughtfully.

Without hesitation, she threw away her crutches and quickly got into the car.

"You're such a good girl." The old man sat in the car and said to Lin Ran with a smile in his eyes.

Lin Ran and the driver sent the old man to the emergency department of the hospital.

Lin Ran hesitated, she picked up the crutches she was going to give to Huo Chengyan's grandfather.

With the injured old man came to the emergency room.

After an hour of treatment and bandaging, the old man's feet had been bandaged.

"Girl, this cane is new, it's going to be given away, right?" The old man looked at the crutches that Lin Ran handed to him, brand-new, and asked worriedly.

"It's okay, grandpa, this cane is also going to be given to an old grandfather, I think, she will understand."

"At the moment, you need it more than he does." Lin Ran said with a smile to the old man.

The old man was in a wheelchair with a cane in his hand.

"Girl, what's your name?" The old man asked Lin Ran kindly.

"My name is Lin Ran, grandpa." Lin Ran responded happily.

When Lin Ran was pushing the old man to walk in the lobby of the hospital.

"Old man Huo." A secretary-like man hurriedly ran towards this old man.

"Old man Huo?" Lin Ran listened to the secretary call the old man in front of her, she hesitated, but she didn't take it to heart.

It just occurred to her that she had patronized the old man to watch his feet, but she had forgotten that she still had an appointment.

After handing over the old grandfather to the secretary, she hurriedly took out her mobile phone and ran outside the hospital.

"Admittedly, I was a little delayed and couldn't go to Ben Thanh Hotel."

"I don't know grandpa, he ......," Lin Ran panted and ran towards the car.

"The appointment was cancelled. Something happened to my grandfather. I'm too busy to tell you. You go back to the office first. Huo Chengyan hurriedly said to Lin Ran, and hung up the phone in a hurry.

Lin Ran let out a long sigh, as if his nervous mood had been relieved all of a sudden.

At this time, the old man, under the care of the secretary, was in a wheelchair, and he had slowly come to Lin Ran.

"Kid, I didn't have time just now, thank you. You're already out. The old man said to Lin Ran.

"This is my phone number, in the future, in Ben Cheng, if you encounter any difficulties, you can call me at any time." The old man said to Lin Ran with a kind face.

At the same time, the secretary handed the phone number in his hand to Lin Ran.

Lin Ran looked at the business card in his hand: Huo Mingsheng, telephone, 01087423558, but there was neither a position nor an address in the business card.

Lin Ran thought about what kind of old man this was.

"Grandpa, I can't ask for this." Lin Ran said to the old man seriously.

"I should help you, and I shouldn't trouble you in the future." Lin Ran said as he handed the business card to the secretary.

"Oh?" The old man looked at Lin Ran in surprise.

"You're a good boy." The old man said kindly.

At the gesture of the old man, the secretary put away the business card.

Lin Ran's car had just returned to the downstairs of the company.

The phone rang suddenly, and when she looked at the screen, it was Huo Chengyan.
