After hanging up the phone, Su Ran walked up to Ye Zhichen, "Co over to my place tonight."
Hearing this, Ye Zhichen chuckled softly and couldn’t help teasing:
"Xiao Ran, can you not be so timid in front of your Mr. Fu at ho?"
Su Ran frowned, "When have I ever been timid?"
Ye Zhichen nodded, "Right, you’re not timid! You’re just henpecked!"
Su Ran: "..."
Not pointing it out ans we’re still good friends!
The two of them headed towards the parking lot, with Ye Zhichen linking arms with Su Ran, laughing:
"But it’s understandable why you’re so henpecked, after all, your Mr. Fu is a big jealous type. I can’t help but laugh when I rember how he was worried I’d steal you away and declared his territory in front of . Hey Xiao Ran, what do you think his expression would be if I called you husband in front of him?"
Su Ran looked at her speechlessly, "I’m your child’s dad. Is this how you treat your dad?"
"Oh, I’m just curious, what do you think his expression would be?"
Su Ran glanced at her lightly, "What expression could it be? At most, he’d throw you out."
Hearing this, Ye Zhichen pursed her lips. Considering Fu Qiyuan’s pettiness, it’s quite possible.
The two reached the parking lot, got into the car one after the other. Ye Zhichen fastened her seatbelt and then turned to Su Ran:
"But your Mr. Fu is so easily jealous, getting jealous of n is one thing, but even getting jealous of won, and about what happened online yesterday, if I were Li Xu, I’d definitely settle accounts with you two!"
Speaking of settling accounts, the person wanting to settle accounts arrived.
Su Ran’s phone rang, it was Li Xu calling.
Ye Zhichen looked at the caller ID on the screen, puzzled.
"Li Xu? Why would he call you at this ti?"
Su Ran shook her head and then answered the call.
"Hello?"
...
Two minutes later, the call ended. Seeing Su Ran’s serious expression, Ye Zhichen asked:
"What’s wrong? What did Li Xu say?"
Su Ran pressed her lips together, "Li Sheng hasn’t gone ho." Then she added, "Since the singles party."
Ye Zhichen was stunned, "She hasn’t been ho for so many days? Where is she now?"
"At Song Mianmian’s place."
Su Ran said, fastening her seatbelt, she started the car and then looked at Ye Zhichen:
"I need to go to the Song Family to pick her up now."
"I’ll co with you."
Su Ran nodded, and the car headed towards the Song family.
-
When they arrived at the Song family villa, Li Sheng and Song Mianmian were already waiting at the gate, clearly inford in advance that Su Ran was coming.
Seeing Su Ran’s car, Song Mianmian waved happily, while Li Sheng beside her crossed her hands in front of her, with her head slightly lowered, her expression unclear.
The car stopped steadily at the gate, Su Ran and Ye Zhichen got out, and seeing them, Song Mianmian excitedly ca forward.
"Sister-in-law, Sister Zhichen."
"Mianmian."
Su Ran and Ye Zhichen greeted her, then their gaze fell on Li Sheng beside her.
Li Sheng’s eyes flickered, she gently bit her lip, lowered her head and ca in front of the two.
"Sister-in-law, Sister Zhichen."
"Have you been here the whole ti these days?"
Li Sheng nodded, saying nothing.
"Why not go ho?" Su Ran asked.
Li Sheng still kept her head down, kicking the little stone at her feet, her voice heavy.
"I don’t want to go back."
Su Ran patted her head gently, speaking softly:
"Don’t you know the family would worry?"
Li Sheng pressed her lips together, "I called ho."
Hearing this, Su Ran sighed gently. Since that singles party night, Li Sheng’s condition had been off.
As a fellow girl, sensitive thoughts, how could she not notice?
"Get in the car, I’ll take you ho."
Li Sheng’s eyes flickered, she bit her lip tightly, but eventually stepped forward without saying a word and opened the car door.
Seeing her get in the car, Su Ran turned to Song Mianmian:
"Mianmian, we’re leaving now."
Song Mianmian looked at Su Ran eagerly, "Sister-in-law, aren’t you coming in for a bit? At least co in for a glass of water!"
Su Ran smiled, "We have things to do, another day."
Song Mianmian glanced at the car, knowing Su Ran indeed had sothing to do, she didn’t insist, just expressed so disappointnt:
"Alright then, see you tomorrow."
Su Ran was taken aback, then rembered tomorrow was Li Xu’s engagent party and nodded with a smile.
"See you tomorrow."
Ye Zhichen also said goodbye to Song Mianmian, and the two got into the car, leaving the Song family villa.
The car drove on, no one spoke, and there was a tense atmosphere inside.
After a long ti, it was Li Sheng who finally spoke.
"Sister-in-law, can I stay at your place tonight?"
"Hmm?"
Su Ran glanced at her through the rearview mirror, her originally beautiful and white face was sowhat haggard, with a cloud of worry that couldn’t be dispelled between her brows.
It was evident she hadn’t been having any easy days lately.
Li Sheng pressed her lips together, "I don’t want to go ho."
Su Ran frowned, disapproving, "Nonsense."
Li Sheng gave a bitter smile, "Going back would be nonsense."
"My task is to take you ho."
Li Sheng, sitting in the back seat, curled up in the corner, hugged herself tightly, lowering her head, murmuring:
"I would be of no help even if I went back; my brother’s engagent party doesn’t need , I would just cause trouble, so it’s better not to go back."
Her voice was so small, as if talking to herself, not clear if she was saying it for Su Ran to hear, or for herself.
"Sister-in-law, can I? Can I stay at your place tonight?"
Su Ran didn’t say anything, but looked at her through the rearview mirror. Li Sheng was watching her too, with cautious, expectant eyes, her originally radiant face now replaced by sorrow, lacking the usual sparkle.
She sighed softly, but said nothing, simply turning the car around.
-
Su Ran took the two to the supermarket, bought so groceries and toiletries, and then they all returned to Platinum Lanting.
Seeing the manor in front of her, Ye Zhichen’s eyes widened, dumbfounded, "Now I believe it."
"What?"
"Fu Qiyuan is rich."
Seeing that after entering the gate it still took twenty minutes by car to reach the entrance of the manor, even though she was a top-tier socialite in Yong City, Ye Zhichen couldn’t help but be stunned.
"No wonder you sche against your husband so ruthlessly, raising kids is nothing, not lacking in money at all, husband, please keep ."
Ye Zhichen turned to look at Su Ran, her eyes shining brightly.
Su Ran raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Like it?"
Ye Zhichen nodded vigorously, "Like it, of course I like it. Living in such a manor, it would be like a princess, no, a queen treatnt, right? What woman wouldn’t like that? Right, Shengsheng?"
Li Sheng nodded, fully agreeing with Ye Zhichen’s words.
Su Ran smiled, carrying the things they just bought from the supermarket, heading towards the door as she said:
"There’s another manor next door that’s mine, if you like it, move in."
Ye Zhichen’s steps suddenly halted, looking at her stiffly.
"What did you say?"
Su Ran also stopped, turned her head, "Don’t you like this manor? I have one!"
