Chapter 26: Digging a Pit
If the large office, the decoration is too simple, and clean, a desk, a computer on it, a few scattered documents, behind is a large bookcase, full of books, and two blue and white porcelain vases, in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, there are two Fugui bamboos, a set of leather sofas, a coffee table, on the wall is a large monitor, on the screen rows of beating data.
Leng Hanxuan leaned on the president's office chair, supported his head with one hand, looked thoughtful, and put the other hand on the desk, and the index finger and middle finger and ring finger tapped the table in a rhythmic manner, which is what he often does when thinking about problems.
After thinking about it for a long time, Leng Hanxuan sat upright, tapped a few times on the computer, and connected to the monitor on the wall, and soon Lin Luochen and Blood Eagle appeared in the monitor.
Lin Luochen still looked bohemian and uninhibited, but the blood eagle had a straight face.
"Xuan, what is this for? Missed me? It's not like we're going to see you at night. Lin Luochen grinned, never in shape.
Leng Hanxuan didn't bother to pay attention to him, and said seriously: "Blood Eagle, can tonight's matter be changed to tomorrow?"
Blood Eagle frowned, and said with some embarrassment: "This ...... I'm afraid that the other party won't accept it, they are already afraid of trading in country Z, if the time is changed, I'm afraid they will be suspicious. ”
Leng Hanxuan frowned, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
Seeing his sad face, Blood Eagle asked, "Is there something wrong with you?"
Leng Hanxuan was silent, it was difficult to speak, he couldn't tell them that he would abandon such an important matter and not go, but go back to the family banquet, and in terms of Lin Luochen's character, he would not ridicule him to death.
Lin Luochen looked at Leng Hanxuan, suddenly thought of something, and asked tentatively, "Xuan, aren't you going back to the family banquet?"
Leng Hanxuan was silent, he wouldn't lie, he was what he was, he didn't have Su Ling'er's ability to make things up.
"Is this a default?" Lin Luochen exclaimed excitedly: "Leng Hanxuan, when did you become so concerned about the family banquet?"
Originally, he was just guessing that tonight's weekend, except for their family banquet, there should be nothing to do, but he had not participated in this banquet before Leng Hanxuan, as early as fifteen years ago, he had already removed himself from the Leng family, could it be ......
Lin Luochen's figure flashed in his mind, and then he looked at Leng Hanxuan slyly and asked, "Shouldn't you be here for An Ran'er?"
He had also seen An Ran'er a few times, and he always looked preoccupied and depressed before, but the last time he saw An Ran'er at his family's banquet, he saw An Ran'er as if he had changed into a different person, he was simply a ghost, if it weren't for that face, he really thought that Leng Hanxuan had found another one.
Blood Eagle glanced at Leng Hanxuan and diverted the topic: "Xuan, if you really have something, we can advance the time by an hour, are you in a hurry?"
Leng Hanxuan thought about it, the time of the transaction is eight o'clock in the evening, and it is seven o'clock an hour in advance, if there is no problem, it should be done in half an hour.
"Okay, then you can get in touch."
Blood Eagle nodded: "Hmm", and went offline.
"Hey, Xuan, you haven't answered my question yet, is it because of An Ran'er?" Lin Luochen looked at Leng Hanxuan like a curious baby, smiling, hoping to hear the exciting news.
Leng Hanxuan glanced at him, and with a light press of his index finger on the keyboard, the screen went black, and Lin Luochen disappeared.
As soon as she thought of the family banquet in the evening, Su Ling'er had a bright smile on her face, she had been aggrieved for so long, she had to let her breathe a good sigh of relief.
Opening the wardrobe, Su Linger also deliberately picked out a light blue long skirt, the skirt just reached the ankle, showing the tall and slender figure perfectly.
Xiaoice looked at Su Ling'er suspiciously on the side, it can be said that every time there was a family banquet before, the young grandmother was the most reluctant to go, not only to see the old lady's face, but also to be ridiculed by the second young grandmother, the lady reprimanded, and sometimes punished by the old lady.
But look at the current young grandmother, it looks like she is still looking forward to it, and she deliberately dressed up, yes, now the young master has changed his attitude towards the young grandmother, but the young master is not at home today.
However, the young grandmother now can dress up more than before, and the same clothes, through her hands, feel different, maybe people are more confident than before.
"Let's go, Xiaoice, let's go to the East Courtyard." Su Ling'er said hoarsely, a little impatient.
Xiaoice said worriedly: "Young grandmother, if you don't pretend to be sick again, don't go, anyway, your voice is not good."
Su Linger smiled and said, "Xiaoice, when did you learn badly?"
Xiaoice bowed his head and said shyly, "I'm not worried about you."
Su Linger put her arm around Xiaoice's shoulder and said with a smile on her face: "Anla!" Your young grandmother won't let people bully you anymore, you see my voice, it's much better than yesterday, it's always bad not to go. ”
Not to mention, this scumbag doctor really has two brushes and a little medicine, which makes her painful throat much better today.
Xiaoice also understands this truth, and can only pray in her heart that the young grandmother can be safe.
As soon as she arrived at the courtyard of the East Courtyard, Su Linger met Xiao Yuan, which is really a narrow road.
Xiao Yuan came over to greet Su Ling'er very warmly, and her attitude was the same as two days ago, like a sister.
"Ran'er, are you alone? What about the big brother? Not with you? Xiao Yuan pretended to ask, and pretended to glance around.
Su Ling'er said with a smile in her eyes: "Xuan, he has something to do, so he can't come over."
A touch of disappointment flashed in Xiao Yuan's eyes, she still wanted Han Xuan to see who An Ran'er was, but then she was relieved, it didn't matter if Han Xuan wasn't there, so the old lady would not have any scruples about punishing her.
"Oh, that's it!" Xiao Yuan quietly glanced at the jade bracelet on Su Linger's wrist, revealing a touch of cunning.
Su Ling'er glanced at her, her face was full of smiles, she wanted to see how long Xiao Yuan could laugh.
Not far away, a pair of melancholy eyes followed Su Linger's figure until the figure disappeared from sight, and Leng Hanmo withdrew his gaze.
When the family arrived, it was just like Leng Hanxuan, as if he was not from the Leng family, even if Leng Hanxuan came, he always felt out of place, Su Linger was really curious, she was also a child of the Leng family, why did she always feel that Leng Hanxuan had a resentment, and he was now violent and unruly.
Since Leng Hanxuan came out for her, the attitude of the Leng family towards her has changed a lot, at least now no one has given her a face, and there is no cynicism.
"Ran'er, I heard that your throat is uncomfortable, are you better?" Li Cuilian asked with concern.
Before Su Ling'er could reply, Xiao Yuan connected and looked very concerned: "Yes, Ran'er, is your voice better, this is in love with the eldest brother, you must also be restrained, don't hurt your body."
Su Ling'er is embarrassed, she is a girl, is it deliberate, what kind of affection, which eye does she have to see that they are affectionate, temperance? Say how much she says yes, every day, don't mock her a few words, feel uncomfortable, isn't it.
Li Cuilian reproached with a calm face: "Xiao Yuan, in front of so many people, how do you speak, there are no rules at all."
"Yes" Xiao Yuan lowered her head, as soon as she thought of the lingering picture of An Ran'er and Han Xuan, she couldn't control her emotions, she didn't see her grandmother angry when she mocked An Ran'er before, it can be seen that An Ran'er is now in her grandmother's heart, but soon, she will make this position disappear.
"Alright, let's go to dinner." Li Cuilian got up, and the majesty exuded by her body really had the domineering spirit of a king, but how could a woman in charge of such a big family business not have two brushes.
The group followed Li Cuilian to the restaurant, and after Li Cuilian sat down, the others sat down, and Xiao Yuan took the initiative to sit next to Su Linger.
"Ran'er, what about Xuan?" Li Cuilian asked, although she knew that Leng Hanxuan would not come, she still couldn't help but ask.
Su Ling'er responded softly: "Xuan said that he had something to do and couldn't come over."
Li Cuilian nodded and replied coldly: "Well, let's eat."
"Come, Ran'er, you eat more." Xiao Yuan enthusiastically served vegetables for Su Ling'er.
Xiao Yuan's sudden enthusiasm really surprised everyone, when did the relationship between the two be so good.
"Come, Ran'er, eat a chicken leg, you see you're thin." Xiao Yuan kept putting vegetables into Su Linger's bowl.
His eyes fell on the jade bracelet, Xiao Yuan looked at it, and pretended to be puzzled: "Ran'er, why is the color of your jade bracelet a little wrong?"
Xiao Yuan's words attracted everyone's attention, and they all stared at Su Linger, and Su Linger also pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Is there any problem?"
Xiao Yuan raised Su Linger's wrist and looked at it carefully, and said with a solemn expression: "Ran'er, your jade bracelet is a fake."
"Fakes?" Su Ling'er was surprised: "How come, since my grandmother handed me the jade bracelet, I haven't taken it off on my hand."
Xiao Yuan said very seriously: "Ran'er, you are really a fake, I have also studied antique appraisal for a year or two, and I can still tell the truth from the fake."
Li Cuilian looked at Su Ling'er and asked coldly, "What's going on?" Obviously, she believed Xiao Yuan's words.
Su Ling'er sneered in her heart, this old lady didn't even look at it, she believed Xiao Yuan's words, it seems that this old lady really doesn't like her, to be precise, it's An Ran'er.
"Grandma, I haven't taken off this jade bracelet since you gave it to me, how can this jade bracelet be fake." Su Linger said calmly.
Xia reminded in a whisper: "Ran'er, you forgot, the last time you went to the West Courtyard, you took it off."
"Oh, yes, last time I went to the West Courtyard with Summer to celebrate Xiao Yuan's birthday, Xiao Yu next to Xiao Yuan accidentally splashed oil stains, and when I took it off, Xiao Yu took it to wash, if this is a fake, then when I was in the West Courtyard, I was transferred."
Xiao Yuanlian said: "Grandma, you know me, even if you lend me a hundred guts, I don't dare to take this jade bracelet."
Su Ling'er sneered: "Grandma gave me the jade bracelet, is it necessary for me to get a fake one to wear?"
"But you are indeed a fake," Xiao Yuan insisted.
This is Xiao Yu, who was standing beside Xiao Yuan, and whispered tremblingly: "Old lady, I don't know if I should say something or not."
"Say," Li Cuilian said coldly.
Xiao Yulian said: "I heard Mingyue, the maid in the East Courtyard, say that the eldest young grandmother broke something, and later buried it secretly in the backyard."
Oh, Su Linger couldn't help but ridicule in her heart, it was really a pit for her to dig and let her jump, it was really painstaking, but as far as Xiao Yuan's pediatric measurement was concerned, she really didn't care about it.
Xiao Yuan smiled smugly, and glanced at Su Ling'er contemptuously, this time to see how she explained to her grandmother.
"Get me Mingyue." Li Cuilian ordered in a cold voice.
