The ringtone in the mobile phone came intermittently, Qin Ran heard the familiar ringtone in her sleep, but she just couldn't wake up, and in the end, the noisy ringtone defeated her sleepiness.

Her body regained consciousness from its slumber, and her limbs gradually regained sensation.

When Qin Ran woke up, it was already noon.

Rubbing her eyes, when she turned over in a daze, she took out her mobile phone and saw that there was a missed call.

Qin Ran looked at the remarks and hurriedly dialed him back.

It was Zhong Zhicheng who called.

She had been in Manshan County for a day, and she hadn't had time to contact him. Before coming, Qin Ran promised Zhong Zhicheng that he would call him back when he arrived.

But there were so many things that she had forgotten.

Sure enough, on the other end of the phone, Zhong Zhicheng's voice was cold and unwarm, "Why don't you answer the phone?" Zhong Zhicheng asked while the voice was heard.

"Ah, I just woke up, I'm so tired," Qin Ran's lazy and delicate voice came out of the microphone after waking up.

"Did you stay up late watching a TV series yesterday?" Zhong Zhicheng questioned unhappily.

Qin Ran is full of black lines, is she the kind of person who stays up late to watch TV series?

"No, yesterday-" Qin Ran wanted to explain, but in the end she paused, she didn't want to tell Zhong Zhicheng that Mo Shaoyan was also here, and she also ran to see him in the middle of the night, "I watched a show yesterday, I couldn't stop, and I went to bed very late." ”

Anyway, Zhong Zhicheng had already misunderstood that she stayed up late to watch TV series, so she might as well follow Zhong Zhicheng's words and not need to explain more.

However, Zhong Zhicheng seemed to believe her words and returned: "You can rest well after the internship, don't stay up late at night in the future, go to bed early, and remember to call me." ”

Zhong Zhicheng was a little verbose. I don't know how he, who has always talked little, could suddenly be so verbose.

Qin Ran held up the phone, turned over on the bed, and pressed against the quilt, "Got it, I'll remember to call you next time." ”

Turning over, she suddenly remembered that her paper had been submitted, and Qin Ran couldn't help but give Zhong Zhicheng a little help, "The gift I promised to you last time may be coming, and you can see it when you come back." ”

"What did you do?" Zhong Zhicheng didn't expect Qin Ranhaihu to think about what she promised last time. I thought she was just saying it casually, but I didn't expect her to remember.

"I don't know to tell you. I'll know when you come back, it's a big gift, you have to be prepared to welcome it, maybe it will frighten you," Qin Ran deliberately exaggerated, trying to deceive Zhong Zhicheng.

Zhong Zhicheng only felt that Qin Ran was like a child who hadn't grown up. In front of him, Qin Ran was getting smaller and smaller. However, Zhong Zhicheng is very popular with her occasional coquettishness, but most of the time she is very sensible.

Only such a girl is suitable for him, he has never been mistaken.

Zhong Zhicheng naturally didn't believe Qin Ran's words, but just pretended to be very disdainful and returned: "I even accepted your big gift, what else do I dare not accept?" ”

Qin Ran grimaced at the phone, but Zhong Zhicheng's words were sweet to her heart.

Glancing at the time, Qin Ran realized that the time was not early, "I won't tell you first, I'm going to accompany my sister-in-law out for a while, my dad has something to do today, and my sister-in-law just came over." The burden falls on me. ”

"Well, let's go, don't forget to bring a piece of clothing when you go out, it's quite cold in the afternoon in Manshan County," Zhong Zhicheng settled.

Qin Ran agreed again and again, but in the end she was reluctant to hang up the phone.

Putting down the sweetness of Zhong Zhicheng's side, she is about to face the unforgettable bitterness in her life.

Qin Ran called Xiao Zhang, who got up earlier than her and was ready to go out. Qin Ran also hurriedly got up and washed up, changed a new pair, carried a satchel, and then went out, of course, she didn't forget Zhong Zhicheng's advice before going out, and brought a piece of clothing.

Xiao Zhang came to knock on her door, Qin Ran opened the door, and saw that Xiao Zhang had also changed his clothes, and he was full of energy and spirits.

The two went downstairs together, and Qin Ran opened the car door and sat up.

Qin Zhenghua's two cars were allocated by the bureau, an Audi, Qin Ran couldn't see the price, but it was said that the government department did not allow luxury cars, and it was best to have an Audi.

Xiao Zhang drove Qin Ran to the hotel where her sister-in-law was.

It was quite far from the guest house, Qin Ran saw that Xiao Zhang had not arrived for a long time, and asked Xiao Zhang suspiciously: "Why did you arrange my sister-in-law so far?" ”

"Secretary Qin's orders," Xiao Zhao replied, and then he concentrated on driving.

Qin Ran thought for a while, and felt that Qin Zhenghua's actions were difficult to understand, "Isn't it a waste of money to stay in a hotel?" Why don't you go to a guest house and stay there? You don't have to run this far. ”

"This is different, Secretary Qin has his own arrangements, if he hadn't added a meeting today, he would have been too busy to get out, and it is estimated that he would not have let Miss Qin accompany Aunt Qin," At least before Aunt Qin came, Qin Zhenghua instructed him, Qin Ran came and asked him to drive Qin Ran to several famous restaurants in Manshan County.

Qin Zhenghua knew that Qin Ran was a little interested in eating, and he always liked to eat good.

I especially like to eat fish, and my favorite is black fish.

At that time, Qin Zhenghua also introduced a few to himself with great interest, saying which places must be let Qin Ran go.

He also said that there are a few black fish that are particularly good.

Because Qin Zhenghua has high blood pressure, his diet is controlled and he can't eat indiscriminately, so he has never had any special requirements for eating, but since Qin Ran came back, it has been different.

Since he learned from Zhong Zhicheng that his relatives like to eat black fish, Qin Zhenghua took the time to inquire about this, just to vote for Qin Ran's favor.

Xiao Zhang was concentrating on driving, Qin Ran was bored, took out his mobile phone to look, and saw a text message in the background, his relatives thought it was a spam advertisement of 10086, and he was about to delete it, only to see that it was a remittance message sent by the bank.

Someone sent him money?

Qin Ran looked at the extra 10,000 yuan in her card, which was a little strange, and when she looked at the text message, it happened to be when she was sleeping.

Could it be Zhong Zhicheng?

It's impossible, Zhong Zhicheng is abroad, and when he called just now, he didn't tell her,

What's more important is that Zhong Zhicheng's bank card is in her hand, so there is no need to send money to her.

"Is that him?" Qin Ran muttered in his mouth.

"Who?" Xiao Zhang heard Qin Ran's distracted voice and thought that something had happened to her.

"Nothing?" Qin Ran hurriedly covered it up, and looked at it again with his mobile phone.

It should be Qin Zhenghua, yes, no one has remitted money to her card except him.

But for no reason, why did Qin Zhenghua give her money. What's more, Qin Zhenghua's family has always been Lu Meiling's housekeeper, Qin Zhenghua gives her money so frequently, is Lu Meiling willing?

Qin Ran couldn't hold back, and wanted to ask Qin Zhenghua what the purpose of the remittance was, and wanted to call, but he was afraid that he was busy now, so he sent a text message.

After a while, Qin Zhenghua replied to Qin Ran's text message

The content is:

"Accompany your aunt to buy something, and buy yourself something delicious, there are still a lot of flavored foods in Manshan County."

Qin Ran finally understood Qin Zhenghua's intentions, it turned out that he was used to accompany his sister-in-law.

When the car slowly stopped in front of the hotel, Qin Ran got out of the car first, and Xiao Zhang went to park.

The hotel where my sister-in-law lives is not a star-rated hotel, but an ordinary chain hotel.

The building of the hotel is not short, and the whole building is brown glass, but it seems to be big.

Qin Ran called her sister-in-law.

This phone call was told to her by Qin Zhenghua, and since Qin Ran left her sister-in-law's house, she angrily deleted her sister-in-law's contact information.

Originally, Qin Ran should have asked her sister-in-law when she went out, but she was always reluctant to take the initiative, and it was a while before Qin Ran arrived at the door of the hotel and was forced to make a call.

Over there, the phone rang for a long time, but no one answered, and Qin Ran dialed several more in succession, but there was still no one.

Helpless, Qin Ran had to go to the front desk of the hall to ask about her sister-in-law, and prepared to go upstairs to find her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I walked into the hall, I heard a familiar and shrill laugh.

The piercing Qin Ran's periosteum hurt, she frowned unhappily, and her whole face suddenly changed.

In the distance, where the laughter comes from. Several women sat around on the sofa in the waiting area of the hotel lobby, laughing and noisy.

Sitting in the center of the sofa is Qin Ran's sister-in-law.

She was dressed in a gorgeous outfit, dressed in bright peach pink, her skin was indeed dark, and her hair was also messy, it was short hair, permed into small curls, and covered her head like a wig.

Qin Ran didn't know what their aesthetics were like, but felt that they were a little spicy.

The group of women sat around and discussed things at the mahjong table.

"I'll pay you back the two thousand I lost last time, my little brother is a big official, and he has money."

"How many times have you said this? Besides, how many times has your senior official brother come back since he was promoted? Not to mention your married sister, even his own brothers have not seen him come back to see him," said one of the women with a very tall stork, a large forehead exposed, and her hair permed into dense curls.

"yes, how many times have you said that."

"Hey, don't you know, he probably gave the money to the woman surnamed Lu, that woman is not like Qin Ran's mother, easy to talk, the woman surnamed Lu, last time I went to send my brother something special or something, she kicked me out, and said she didn't know me, it's really-"

Qin Ran's sister-in-law looked indignant, as if she had been wronged.

Qin Ran had been standing behind them and watching all this silently.

Yes, her mother is so bullied, she was by her in-laws, and now she has to be talked about here.

Qin Ran couldn't hear her sister-in-law mention her mother's name. With both hands clenched into fists, Qin Ran strode forward, bringing a gust of wind as swiftly.

"Sister-in-law," Qin Ran shouted.

Qin Ran's sister-in-law turned around when she heard this, and when she saw Qin Ran, the smile on her face suddenly froze on her face.

"How are you?" Qin Ran's sister-in-law looked surprised.

"My dad asked me to come over with you, and he didn't tell you?" Qin Ran also asked with a sneer.

"It's not—" The sister-in-law didn't figure out what was going on, "what about Zhenghua?" Why didn't he come? Qin Ran's sister-in-law stood up, crossed her waist and was domineering, and questioned Qin Ran menacingly.

"My dad went to a meeting," Qin Ran replied truthfully.

The sister-in-law didn't give up, "You didn't let him come, right?" The sister-in-law plucked out her eyes and rolled her eyes at Qin Ran.

"My dad is so busy, you don't know that he came to Manshan County to inspect this time," Qin Ran didn't bother to explain to her, so she could only put all the blame on Qin Zhenghua.

She didn't want to come either.

The sister-in-law sneered, the corners of her mouth raised with a hint of contempt, and her messy hair moved with a flick of her head.

"Don't think I don't know, you thief. You have grown your skills now, you have been admitted to a good university, found your own father, and hugged his thigh. What, now you're back to show off? ”

Qin Ran hasn't been back since he was kicked out. At that time, when I lived with my mother at my sister-in-law's house, my mother also worked in a nearby factory to barely support the mother and daughter. I didn't use her for a penny. Instead, her sister-in-law also charged them rent.

Qin Ran couldn't understand that Qin Zhenghua was her brother and her father.

"Sister-in-law, what if I'm showing off? He's my dad, why can't I show it off? ”
