The twilight is getting darker.

Catching a glimpse of Old Lady Yuan coming out of the room, Zhong Linlan immediately stood up: "Grandma, is this going on?" ”

Old Lady Yuan glanced at him and said in a sullen voice, "Go back." ”

With a hint of surprise in her eyes, Zhong Linlan still pretended to stay: "Grandma, it's already so late, why don't you stay here?" Why bother going back. ”

"Nope." Old Lady Yuan's face did not change, "I don't want to be angry here." ”

His heart chuckled, Zhong Linlan's smile froze, who is angry here? She spent the afternoon under the old lady's number, and she had already become a bag.

"Grandma, I'll send you out." Zhong Linlan concealed her emotions and held Mrs. Yuan's arm diligently.

Old Lady Yuan frowned, and tucked her arm: "You don't need to pretend." ”

The atmosphere was awkward for a while, and Yuan Heting on the side took the old lady's arm: "Grandma, I'll send you out." ”

Old Madam Yuan naturally nodded. Seeing the backs of the two walking out of the villa, Zhong Linlan's heart was pinched together, like countless spider webs wrapped around her heart.

Seeing the old lady get into the car, Yuan Heting said softly: "Grandma, pay attention to your body, I will often go to see you." ”

Old Madam Yuan nodded, glanced at the villa, and sighed, "You have to take good care of yourself." After a pause, she was about to speak, but found that she did not know what to say for a while.

The car started, and saw that Yuan Heting was still standing in place, through the car window, she waved her hand: "Go back quickly, it's cold outside, don't freeze." ”

Yuan Heting nodded, but continued to stay where he was.

Finally, I heard the sound of the car driving away, and Zhong Linlan dared to walk out of the villa. Seeing Yuan Heting standing in the distance, her back seemed a little lonely, she quietly walked over and took his arm.

Feeling the man's body stunned, she looked at him sideways: "Why are you still standing outside?" Seeing that Yuan Heting didn't answer, he had to say again, "Heting, talk to me?" ”

Yuan Heting indifferently withdrew his hand: "Another day, I still have something to do." ”

Zhong Linlan's eyelids jumped, and she asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"There's something to take care of in the company." Yuan Heting still cherishes words like gold.

What can happen during the Chinese New Year? Zhong Linlan suddenly froze, and didn't dare to show it, her tone was still as soft as usual: "It's so late, or it's not too late to go tomorrow." ”

"It has to be dealt with today." Yuan Heting strode in the direction of the car, with a thick layer of frost hanging between his eyebrows.

Zhong Linlan froze in place, and a trace of hideousness flashed in her eyes. Originally, it shouldn't have been such a situation, and she could bear the old lady's number, but now Yuan Heting's cold and hot treatment of her caught her off guard.

After a moment, she retracted her hatred, put a decent smile on her face again, and shouted in the direction where Yuan Heting left: "Heting, you wait a minute." ”

After a pause, Yuan Heting looked back at her, frowning slightly: "Anything else?" ”

"I'll get you something."

Yuan Heting was naturally puzzled, and when Zhong Linlan took out a coat and came out, it was self-evident.

Zhong Linlan handed him the black coat and said with a smile: "The night is a little cold, how can you do without a coat?" Remember to wear it when it's cold. ”

Yuan Heting hesitated for a while and took his coat: "Hmm." ”

"No matter how important your work is, remember to rest and don't get tired." Zhong Linlan watched him get into the car and pressed back those unwillingness.

"Got it." Yuan Heting's heart was bored.

This is a very strange feeling, the better Zhong Linlan treats him, the more dull he feels.

Seeing Yuan Heting's car driving out of the villa gate, Zhong Linlan's eyes gradually turned scarlet.

Back at the villa, I swept around the empty room. It's big but it's extremely deserted, and the start of the new year is really terrible. Catching a glimpse of the water glasses on the table, the more she looked at them, the more unpleasant she became, and she slammed them on the ground.

Splashes of tiny shards, sharp slices that cut through the air.

My aunt was busy in the kitchen when she heard a sound from the living room and was really startled. She immediately put down the housework in her hand and walked towards the living room, and saw Zhong Linlan with a hideous face, smashing things wildly.

"Miss, this is unacceptable." The aunt hurriedly ran up to her and took the cup she was about to smash on the ground.

Zhong Linlan was angry, couldn't listen to anything else, and looked at her resentfully: "You let me go." Seeing that the aunt still didn't let go, she pushed her aside with all her might.

The aunt did not stand firm for a moment and fell to the ground.

"Do you want to go against me?" Zhong Linlan was furious, and her cheeks flushed.

Auntie hurriedly shook her head: "Don't dare to ......"

Seeing the woman's hideous expression, she suddenly didn't dare to say a word, nor did she dare to come forward to persuade her, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble. She had long known that Zhong Linlan had suffered a lot of anger from Mrs. Yuan, and now that Mrs. Yuan had left, of course she had to vent her anguish in her heart.

"It's good to know." Zhong Linlan gritted her teeth, "You'd better figure out who the future hostess here will be." ”

Sooner or later, she will marry Yuan Heting smoothly, and during this period, she will never allow any mistakes.

Seeing that the villa was empty, she had no idea of continuing to stay, so she had to go back to Zhong's house alone.

As soon as they walked into Zhong's house, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of Zhong's father and Zhong's mother.

Seeing Zhong Linlan sitting on the sofa with a sad expression, Zhong's mother couldn't help but walk to her side: "Why are you back for this Chinese New Year?" Don't accompany Herting? ”

"Don't mention it." Zhong Linlan said angrily.

Dad Zhong suddenly felt bad and glanced at her: "Did something happen?" ”

Taking a deep breath, Zhong Linlan said with a face full of grievances: "Today, the old lady came to see He Ting, and she made it difficult for me in every way, I personally made a table of meals for her, but she thought I didn't make it delicious, and counted me down again." ”

"The old lady's temper is not easy to mess with." Zhong's mother looked sad, "But don't you know that you try your best to please her old man?" ”

Zhong Linlan's throat was blocked, and she originally wanted to be comforted, but she was told again. Her tone was even more aggrieved: "I've already figured out a way, but who made her stay unappreciative, I can't help it, it seems that she is not satisfied no matter what I do." ”

Father Zhong, who was sitting on the side reading the newspaper, interjected: "What about Heting? He didn't help you? ”

Speaking of this, Zhong Linlan's expression became more and more aggrieved, his eyes were moistened with a layer of haze, and he shook his head: "I have already signaled to him with my eyes, but he ignored it." ”

The atmosphere began to get dreary. It was supposed to be the New Year, and it was supposed to welcome the arrival of the new year happily, but when something like this happened, no one could be happy.

"I found that during this time, Heting was always hot and cold to me." Zhong Linlan told of panic in her heart.

It seems that only in front of your loved ones can you be willing to expose the fragility of your heart without scruples.

"That's all you have, why can't you even tie a man's heart?" Dad Zhong put down the newspaper in his hand and looked at the aggrieved Zhong Linlan angrily.

His heart shook instantly, Zhong Linlan opened his mouth, and he couldn't say the bitterness in his heart. She went home to be comforted by her family, but she still had to be counted.

"I told you that you usually want to please Heting and behave better in front of him, did you listen to these words?" Zhong Ma also spoke earnestly on the side.

"Of course I knew, I did my best." Zhong Linlan's tone was mixed with a hint of resentment.

"It's impossible to do that, where is he now?" Father Zhong's face did not change.

Zhong Linlan paused for a moment before saying, "The company, it is said that there is something." ”

"Look at you, what can the company do during the New Year, why don't you keep him?" Dad Zhong then stood up.

"He insists on leaving, what's the use of me staying?" Zhong Linlan's voice grew louder, with tears in her eyes. She forced back her tears.

"Hmph." Dad Zhong snorted coldly: "If this marriage between you and the Yuan family can't be completed, our Zhong family doesn't have a daughter like you." ”

"Dad, how can you do this? Am I not as good as the Yuan family's family business? Not as profitable as your business? Zhong Linlan was emotional for a while.

Dad Zhong glanced at her, pursed the corners of his mouth, and then walked back to the room without saying a word.

The door slammed shut, and the sound seemed to shake the whole building. Zhong Linlan looked at Zhong's mother, and her voice was hoarse: "Mom, how can Dad be like this?" ”

Mother Zhong sighed, "It's not that you don't know how important this marriage with the Yuan family is, and it is related to the future of our Zhong family." Daughter, you have to fight for it, you must not let the Yuan family withdraw from the marriage......"

Zhong Linlan didn't want to listen to Zhong's mother at all at this time, it seemed that the value of her survival was for the benefit of the family.

"Mom, don't say any more." Zhong Linlan stood up suddenly.

Mother Zhong raised her eyes to look at her and said in surprise: "Mom said these words for your own good, you have to keep Yuan Heting for me this time no matter what." ”

"Got it." Zhong Linlan replied in a muffled voice, and then walked out the door.

Mama Zhong's puzzled voice came from behind her: "Where are you going so late?" ”

"Go and keep him!" Zhong Linlan replied angrily.

The family has become like this, how can she still stay. She couldn't listen to Zhong's mother's next words at all, and she only knew that she would go out with all her strength.

Late at night.

The cold wind was blowing, and when she thought of having nowhere to go, she gasped, and in an instant, her heart became cold. Wrapped tightly around her coat, her eyes moistened.

Before the tears were about to fall, she hurriedly wiped them away.

In the distance, there was a burst of music from the bar, which was lively against the surrounding comparison. She paused, stared blankly for a long time, and finally walked in.

Ordered a glass of wine, and she drank it alone. Cup after cup, pour it into your mouth. She didn't care about the wine that remained at the corner of her mouth.

Feeling that her shoulders were being hugged, she frowned, and saw a big man looking at her with a wicked smile. She nudged him, "Get out of here." ”

The big man with a lustful expression on his face, where can he listen to it.

Zhong Linlan was powerless to fight back, her whole body was paralyzed, and when she was about to be dragged away by the big man, a tall figure stood in front of them.

Zhong Linlan glanced at the person and said suspiciously: "Yan Lang? ”
