Chapter 23: Are You Angry?
Completely ignoring the injury in Jiang Yuchen's eyes, Lin Ran continued to show his determination: "If it weren't for him, I'd rather die!" β
Lin Ran's refusal was decisive and firm, leaving no room at all.
Jiang Yuchen was intimidated by her resolute attitude, and he didn't know what to say.
But the jealousy of Pei Yunxiao in her heart spread rapidly, and the strength of holding Lin Ran's hands subconsciously increased, causing her to frown in pain.
When Pei Yunxiao came back, he saw such a scene.
"Third brother!"
Lin Ran's eyes lit up, and when Jiang Yuchen was distracted, he struggled to shake him off and threw himself into Pei Yunxiao's arms.
It's just that they had just parted in the morning, and Lin Ran felt that he was already about to fall ill with lovesickness.
In his arms, smelling the unique smell of tobacco mixed with the man's body, and hearing the steady and powerful heartbeat through his thick camouflage training uniform, Lin Ran's heart was swept away by Jiang Yuchen's irritability.
This is the first time Jiang Yuchen has really faced Pei Yunxiao, a man who has always made him quite curious.
Pei Yunxiao is tall and straight, looking deep and introverted, the armed belt around his waist makes his legs more slender, his facial features are extremely three-dimensional and deep, and his bottomless eyes and tight thin lips make him more majestic.
Perhaps because of his years of training as a soldier, his skin is a healthy bronzer, a little darker than that of ordinary men, and extremely masculine and tough.
The most indismissible thing is his powerful and intimidating momentum, the majesty of the superior who cannot be ignored makes Jiang Yuchen unconsciously take a step back.
But Pei Yunxiao didn't even look at him, pushed the girl away from his arms slightly, put his big hand on her forehead, and his dry palm was soaked with cold sweat.
"If you're not feeling well, you're not at home to rest, what are you going to do when you run out?"
Pei Yunxiao reprimanded with a calm face, his expression was full of displeasure, but Lin Ran was sweet in his heart.
Jiang Yuchen found that Lin Ran's face was pale, and then he remembered that when he held her hand just now, her hands were cold.
It turned out that she was really sick!
Seeing that Pei Yunxiao deliberately ignored Jiang Yuchen's existence, and frowned slightly in displeasure, he knew that he must have misunderstood and was jealous.
So he immediately explained: "Jiang Shao heard that I was sick, so I came to visit me, but even if he treats me as a sister, he is a person with a fiancΓ©e after all, and it is not good to care too much about other girls, and it is not fair to his fiancΓ©e." β
Lin Ran raised his little face and asked Pei Yunxiao flatteringly: "Third brother, did you say that what I said was right?" β
"Hmm."
Although Pei Yunxiao only responded lightly, his frowning brows had already relaxed.
"Ran Ran is right, the person Jiang Shao should care about is your fiancΓ©e."
Pei Yunxiao took Lin Ran into his arms and declared his sovereignty strongly: "As for Ran Ran, it's enough for me to care!" β
After speaking, he didn't pay attention to him anymore, picked up Lin Ran and left.
Jiang Yuchen had an unprecedented sense of frustration in his heart, not because he lost in a head-to-head confrontation with Pei Yunxiao, but because he saw Lin Ran's feelings for Pei Yunxiao clearly, and knew that he had really lost her.
Back in the room, Pei Yunxiao put Lin Ran on the bed and thoughtfully covered the quilt for her, but he was always silent, even if it was a question.
Worried in his heart, when Pei Yunxiao was about to leave, Lin Ran sat up and hugged his neck tightly: "Third brother, are you angry?" β
Pei Yunxiao wanted to pull her hand away, but he was so caught by Lin Ran that he couldn't move.
"You let go first."
"I won't let go!"
When the tug-of-war between the two was stalemate, Uncle Chen came to tell him that Mrs. Pei and Lu Qing were here.
Lin Ran immediately let go of him, and when he was about to get out of bed, Pei Yunxiao held her down: "You rest obediently, I'll just go out." β
He changed out of his training uniform and put his phone on the table.
Pei Yunxiao's mobile phone is quite old, and the password set is Lin Ran's birthday.
Lin Ran picked up the phone and unlocked it, and saw the photo sent by Lu Qing.
Qing Qing's cold eyes narrowed slightly, and he sneered and pulled the corners of his lips, this Lu Qing really killed herself!
Seeing Pei Yunxiao, Lu Qing's eyes were straight, and his eyes kept following his figure and he was reluctant to leave.
"Mother came to me today, I don't know why."
Pei Yunxiao was as indifferent as ever, sat down and poured himself a cup of tea, still ignoring Lu Qing's existence.
"What about Lin Ran? The elders don't come out to greet when they come, is the Lin family such a parenting? β
Faced with Mrs. Pei's preemptive strike, Pei Yunxiao was calm: "Ran Ran is sick, I let her rest in the room." β
Seeing him defending Lin Ran like this, Mrs. Pei didn't go around in circles with him, and got straight to the point: "Lin Ran and Jiang Yuchen are entangled at your door, why do you still look like you don't care about yourself?" β
Does he really have to wait for the green hat to be put on his head and become a joke in the whole country Z before he can wake up?
Pei Yunxiao raised his eyes slightly and looked at Mrs. Pei lightly: "Mother thinks I'm a useless man?" β
Mrs. Pei looked at him puzzled.
"Otherwise, how could my mother rather believe the words of irrelevant outsiders than me?"
This irrelevant outsider is apart from herself, and Lu Qing really can't think of anyone else.
Hanging his head aggrieved and self-reproachful: "Auntie, it's all my fault, I shouldn't talk too much." β
Her pitiful appearance made Mrs. Pei feel distressed, and patted the back of her hand to comfort her lovingly: "If people don't know, unless they don't do it, how can you blame it?" β
What's more, Lu Qing is also for the good of her son, how can she bear to blame?
Mrs. Pei really doesn't understand, Lu Qing is so well-behaved and gentle, and her family background is good, and she has a deep affection for him, why does her son turn a blind eye to Lin Ran, but she is obsessed with Lin Ran?
and the old lady of his own family, because Lin Ran studied Chinese medicine since childhood, he looked at her differently, and insisted on making her his granddaughter-in-law.
Lu Qing is the best student of the Chinese Academy of Medicine, and the strength of the Chinese medicine is not inferior to Lin Ran, why does the old lady reject Lin Ran so much?
She thought more than once that it would be great if Lu Qing could be her granddaughter-in-law!
Pei Yunxiao didn't bother to watch Lu Qing act, and said coldly: "Mother, I'll say it one last time, Ran Ran has nothing to do with Jiang Yuchen, whoever takes advantage of this in the future will bear the consequences!" β
Mrs. Pei got up angrily: "Are you threatening me?" β
The son she worked so hard to raise, for the sake of a woman, she didn't even pay attention to her as a mother, which is also an important reason why Mrs. Pei has always been suspicious of Lin Ran.
"If Mother thinks so, then let it be so!"
didn't even bother to say a word of comfort or a perfunctory explanation, what she, the mother, did really failed.
But Lu Qing understood that this was actually a warning given to her by Pei Yunxiao.
Lin Ran, what is she?
Lu Qing gritted her teeth with hatred, but she didn't dare to show it, and she had to pretend to be wronged: "Brother Yun Xiao, it's all my fault, please don't blame Auntie......"
"Uncle Chen, send off!"
Without giving Lu Qing a chance to finish, Pei Yunxiao interrupted her coldly: "Don't let any strangers in the future!" β
Hearing this, Mrs. Pei, who had been forbearing, broke out completely: "Qingqing was brought by me, are you slapping me in the face now?" Or do you warn me not to come to you in the future? β
Pei Yunxiao was silent.
In Mrs. Pei's eyes, this is the acquiescence, and tears of disappointment burst out of her eyes: "Okay, I should have never given birth to your son!" β
If the eldest and second child didn't sacrifice, why would she pin all her feelings and hopes on this unfilial son?
Mrs. Pei rushed out of the door, and Lu Qing didn't expect Pei Yunxiao to be so blind to Lin Ran that she could only leave with Mrs. Pei.
At the corner of the stairs, with a panoramic view of everything, Lin Ran went downstairs and sat beside him.
Holding his arm and resting his head on his shoulder: "Third brother, am I causing trouble for you again?" β
In her previous life, the relationship between Pei Yunxiao and Mrs. Pei was tense to the point of breaking away from the mother-son relationship, even if Mrs. Pei forced her to die, Pei Yunxiao was still stubborn and insisted on marrying her.
Even if he is ruthless in the eyes of outsiders, how can he not care about his dear mother?
What kind of pain and suffering he endured in his heart in his previous life, Lin Ran can completely imagine it now.
I hugged his waist tightly in distress.
Pei Yunxiao stroked her hair: "Didn't you let you rest in the room?" β
Lin Ran rubbed in his arms like a kitten: "I want to accompany the third brother!" β
Once owed to him, she will use this life to compensate!
β¦β¦
Sure enough, as Lin Ran expected, Lu Qing fanned the flames in front of Director Wu, as soon as she went to work, she was notified that she was assigned to the emergency room, and most of the people who were assigned to her were night shifts.
Lu Qing's careful thinking was revealed through the schedule, didn't she just want to stop her from being with Pei Yunxiao?
Just after returning from the emergency treatment, Song Li sat opposite her and asked her indifferently and calmly: "Let her ride on top of your head and do whatever she wants, you can bear it." β
Song Li and Lin Ran are in the same class, usually alone, like her, there are no good classmates in the class, and they don't live in the dormitory, so low-key that people will even ignore her existence.
This time, Song Li also got the qualification to intern at the Chinese Academy of Medicine because of his excellent grades.
Lin Ran, who was focused on her work, replied to her lightly: "You must kill the enemy with one blow, otherwise you will only startle the snake." β
Song Li looked at Lin Ran with a look of surprise on his face.
"It seems that I am not worried."
I always thought that Lin Ran was weak and could be bullied, but judging from her attitude today, Lin Ran was more like a dormant little beast, just patiently waiting for an opportunity.
Lin Ran glanced at the time displayed on the computer and sent a WeChat message to Pei Yunxiao-
I was assigned a night shift tonight and couldn't go home, and the third brother remembered to take medicine obediently, do you know?
As soon as WeChat was sent, a nurse hurriedly pushed the door to notify that a seriously ill patient was being sent, and Lin Ran rushed out of the office without waiting for Pei Yunxiao's reply.
