"It's not good to drink too much. You have to stick to your ideals. You can't learn from your cousin. You only know how to socialize and drink all day long, " Du Anran said with a laugh.
It was probably Xiao Tao's first time entering such a private high-class restaurant, so she couldn't help but be a little reserved. However, Du Anran had been sitting next to her to let her relax, so she nodded and started eating.
In the afternoon, Han Yuan still had to take Xiao Tao to other places, so after dinner, Du Anran didn't keep them and sent them out of the building.
Coincidentally, Xin Zimo arrived at the Xin group just as Han Yuan Left.
"Why are you downstairs? " Xin Zimo held her waist in the elevator.
"Han Yuan is back. I just sent him away, and you weren't there. " Du Anran did not know if he had just come from the villa.
"Oh, he's so cool. He's willing to come back. "
"I think his lifestyle is not bad. It's good. " Du Anran was still very envious.
"You're not allowed to imitate him. You're running around outside alone. " Xin Zimo seemed to have seen through Du Anran's thoughts.
"With you watching over me, how can I run away? " Du Anran lowered her head. "But Han Yuan suggested that I go on a trip. When are you free? Let's go together. "
"Didn't I say yesterday that after I'm done with this period of time? " Xin zimo still answered.
"Oh... " although she knew that the Xin Corporation was more important, she was still a little disappointed.
It was not that Xin Zimo did not see the disappointment in his eyes, but he had no choice. He could not give her this promise. In front of him was a huge mess, waiting for him to clean it up one by one. Not to mention going on a trip, it would be a luxury not to stay up all night.
When he went to the office with Xin Zimo, Du Anran gave him the small gift that Han Yuan had brought.
Xin Zimo opened the box. The things inside were similar to Du Anran's, except that his was a flower petal specimen, a gray butterfly.
Xin Zimo had never cared about these children's toys. There were countless antiques and treasures in his house.
However, when he saw the amber stone, his eyes still shone. This amber pendant was very beautiful, and it had a long and rich aura.
When the sunlight shone on the amber stone from the outside, it shone a little.
"Han Yuan wishes us a long and lasting life. " Du Anran smiled very sweetly, like a sunflower, and the sunlight was generous.
"A long and lasting life... " Xin zimo looked at the exquisite amber stone and chewed on these words.
However, on this day when everyone was very happy, someone in city a was in a very bad mood.
In the CEO's office, Xie Chenjin slapped the table. "The coffee is too cold, GO CHANGE IT! "
The little secretary was so scared that her face turned pale. It was always the same temperature in the past, and she had never seen Xie Chenjin complain that it was too cold. Moreover, there was something wrong with Xie Chenjin's face today. It had been dark since morning. No one knew who had offended him.
However, the little secretary did not dare to offend Xie Chenjin. Since he asked her to change it, she would change it. She quickly poured the coffee out and made another cup.
After she brought the coffee over, Xie chenjin threw a stack of documents in front of her.
"What are these things? Take them back and REDO THEM! "
"President Xie... These were redone today, " the little secretary said in a low voice. She suspected that Xie Chenjin did not read them at all ...
"I said take them back and Redo them. Don't you understand? "
"Yes. " The little secretary quickly picked up the documents on the ground and ran out of the office quickly.
Once she left the office, she was so scared that she patted her chest. She had never seen President Xie so angry before. President Xie was usually very reasonable and would never make trouble without reason.
She did not know if she had taken the wrong medicine today, the little secretary cursed in her heart. She could not say what she had suffered.
Xie Chenjin had been in a state of agitation and anxiety the whole day. His face had also been gloomy.
Of course, no one dared to step into his office on this day. He stood in front of the French window for a long time. The light in his eyes gradually turned from irritation to gloom.
He flipped through the documents on his desk and finally found the proposal for the Golden Plate Garden project in a large pile of documents.
Was it difficult to recover the Xin Corporation's funds Good, this was the result he wanted.
Next, he wanted to make the Xin Corporation suffer even more. Xin Zimo had the secret financial information in his hands, and he wanted it. Three months of gambling period, Du Anran, have you almost forgotten You're going to lose... ...
However, he felt that he had to remind her.
It was not easy to last until night, and Xie Chenjin was driving the car and blocking the entrance of the Du residence.
He knew that Xin Zimo had returned the villa to her, and it seemed that Xin Zimo really loved her. But there were many things in this world that could not be solved by love.
Du Anran accompanied Xin Zimo to eat, and they did not go home until nine o'clock in the evening.
When she saw Du Anran, Xie Chenjin drove the Bentley to the front and blocked her way.
When she saw a car suddenly blocking in front of her, Du Anran's first reaction was to avoid it. However, when she took a closer look at Xie Chenjin's car, she knew that Xie Chenjin had been waiting for a long time.
Thinking of Xin Zimo's warning, Du Anran did not dare to act rashly.
Xie Chenjin walked out of the car. He was wearing a black suit today. He looked very solemn and solemn. In addition to the look on his face that someone owed him money, Du Anran felt that there was nothing good about him.
"Miss Du, you are living a good life. " Xie Chenjin stood in front of her, his tone was disdainful and indifferent.
"You talk as if your life is miserable, " Du Anran said indifferently.
She had not settled the score with him when he deliberately lured her to the stadium last time. Today, he took the initiative to look for her again.
"I haven't seen you for a few days, and you are becoming more and more eloquent. It seems that Xin Zimo has taught you well, " Xie Chenjin said in the same tone.
"Why are you looking for me? " Du Anran glanced at him. "I have to go back to sleep. "
"I want to remind you of something. You haven't forgotten about the bet you made with me, have you? "
Du Anran was stunned. Ever since she felt that Xin Zimo had treated her wholeheartedly, she had not taken the bet to heart. However, now that Xie Chenjin mentioned it, she remembered it again.
"I remember. What's wrong? " Du Anran said lightly. Her face was like the clear moonlight in the sky.
"nothing, I'm just reminding you. " Xie Chenjin was asking for a beating.
"You specially came to remind me of this at night? " Du Anran found it unbelievable.
"Yes, what's the matter? " Xie Chenjin crossed his arms and looked at her leisurely.
"Boring! " Du Anran gave him two words, rolled her eyes at him, and prepared to go to the DU residence.
"I'm very serious. " Xie Chenjin's voice sounded behind her.
Du Anran ignored him, threw him a back view, and said, "we don't have to meet in the future. Oh, right, Shaonan went to London today. "
At the mention of Jin Shaonan's name, Xie Chenjin's eyes flashed with a strange light.
When du Anran opened the door, he walked over, turned her body, and wrapped her in his arms. His eyes met hers, but because it was night, he couldn't see anything clearly.
However, du Anran was afraid that someone was following her in a dark corner, so she took these photos and gave them to Xin Zimo.
She didn't want to waste any more effort to explain. She had almost lost her life in the incident at the stadium last time. She knew very well how scary it was when Xin Zimo got angry.
"Are you sure about Xin Zimo? " Xie Chenjin's tone was unfriendly.
Du Anran moved his arm away and wanted to turn around to open the door, but Xie Chenjin was obviously unwilling to let go.
"The word love has never had anything to do with you, President Xie. You have never loved anyone, so of course you don't understand. Even if I said it, it would be casting pearls before swine. " Du Anran rolled her eyes at him.
"What is love? It's just a funny thing! " Xie Chenjin's face was filled with anger.
"So, is there a need for us to continue talking? " Du Anran made a helpless expression.
"I just want to ask you, other than Xin Zimo, have you ever loved anyone else? "
Du Anran blinked. "Sometimes, a lifetime is only enough to love one person. "
She pushed Xie Chenjin away. Xie Chenjin did not do anything else. She opened the door smoothly.
Xie Chenjin did not continue to pester her. He just watched her take off the lock, enter the DU residence, and close the door in front of him.
A door separated him from her. Du Anran glanced at him and quietly walked back to the house from the corridor of the villa.
However, Xie Chenjin did not leave. He watched the lights on upstairs and the whole villa slowly sink into darkness. The air was foggy, and the wet mist wet Xie Chenjin's hair.
He did not know how long he stood there.
After du Anran went back, she took the gift that Han Yuan gave her and looked at it for a long time. The amber pendant was really beautiful, especially the Blue Butterfly in the middle. It was decorated perfectly.
She liked the blue color, and she liked the butterfly too.
She could not guess how long the butterfly had been frozen in the amber, but it came to her from the Wilderness. It was probably fate.
She had received many gifts this year. Xin Zimo alone had given her countless gifts, and she had treasured them all. This was memory, and it was also affection.
She had a drawer that was specially used to store memories. She was a nostalgic person, and one of her biggest dreams was to hold these memories in her hands when she was old, sit under the sun, and slowly recall them... ...
When an unfamiliar text message was sent, she was still carefully tidying up her babies and did not pay attention. Only when she saw the text message did she freeze on the spot.
The text message used a threatening tone to ask her to meet at nine o'clock in the morning three days later at the place where her mother had been kidnapped.
The number was an unfamiliar number. Du Anran tried to call it, but the notification she received was "sorry, the subscriber you have dialed is turned off. Please try again later. ''.
Who was the one threatening her Why was it at that place... ...
When her mother had been kidnapped, Xin Zimo had brought people to save her. Not many people knew about this. Most people only knew that he Yuguang had been caught betraying the Xin family.
As for Xiao Qingqing, ever since her mother begged for mercy, Xin Zimo no longer cared about this matter. There was no more news of Xiao Qingqing.
Could it be that Xiao Qingqing had returned Impossible. It had only been a short while since the incident. How could she dare to return? She should have fled to Canada a long time ago.
Then who was threatening her Should she tell Xin Zimo.
Just as she was hesitating, another text message came.
This time, it was a warning tone. It warned her not to tell anyone and asked her to meet alone.
Du Anran did not know who she had offended. She could not figure it out no matter how much she thought about it. Xie Chenjin Du Anran could not think of the reason why Xie Chenjin wanted to find trouble with her. Mother Xin It seemed that she had not seen her for a long time... ...
