After Lin Ruolan was slightly lost in thought, she quickly smiled to herself.
She clearly thought that things had changed now.
Jiangnan is no longer the same Jiangnan, the charming man who dominated the Nancheng business world.
Although he was powerless, he was energetic and full of knowledge and talent.
Even though there were thousands of princes and nobles pursuing her, she was only attracted to him.
More than six years have passed, enough to completely change a person.
In Lin Ruolan's opinion, Jiangnan now is dull and crazy, with nothing, but he still wants to maintain his pitiful bit of dignity.
Why bother, and what's the use.
It can only make people feel sad and ridiculous.
Let alone five minutes, it was five days and five months. She firmly believed that she would not change her mind.
If it weren't for her daughter's repeated requests, she would have turned against her long ago.
If she hadn't seen the kindness back then, she would have been furious.
"Mom, let's eat it for you. The one dad bought is so sweet."
Lin Keer was holding a lollipop and popcorn, with a cute face and a smile as bright as a flower.
Lin Ruolan was slightly stunned. Indeed, in the past few years, it was rare to see her daughter finally smile brightly.
Could it be said that blood is really thicker than water and irreplaceable?
In her young heart, did she really hope to have such a family relationship?
"Thank you Ke'er. If mom doesn't want to eat it, you can eat it."
Lin Ruolan looked at the time anxiously. Four minutes had passed. She was about to leave the cinema and meet with clients.
"I bought a lot, and I remember you liked this, here."
Jiang Nan was calm and steady, and seemed not to care at all about the concept of time just mentioned.
Lin Ruolan felt that he was just trying to cover up, or that he was a dead pig who was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.
"Coke with ice? You also said it was before. After so many years, I can no longer eat this."
Jiang Nan stared at her for a few seconds, then suddenly patted himself, appearing regretful.
"Look at my sharp eyesight. You must have worked hard day and night for these years. How could you drink this cool thing if you already have stomach problems? It was my mistake."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his head and drank it all in one gulp without wasting any of it.
Recalling that summer many years ago, Lin Ruolan was still a pure and shy girl in her pure white years.
The two of them drank a cup of Coke together and walked a few streets holding hands, feeling sweet and comfortable.
At that time, he was still a handsome young man who was still childish.
It seems like nothing can go back.
"I don't know who you are talking to. Why are you so polite now? Why bother pretending in front of me? I don't know how much you weigh. Don't you even have the most basic sincerity now?"
Lin Ruolan sighed, the past memories came to mind, which always made people sigh and sigh.
"No, it's hard to break a habit. You won't believe many of the things I say to you. Just like now, five minutes are up."
Jiang Nan pointed to his watch.
The next second, Lin Ruolan's cell phone kept ringing.
She took it out and looked at it. Sure enough, it was a call from that important customer.
"Oh, Mr. Li, I'm so sorry. I'll be right over."
Thinking that the client was urging her, Lin Ruolan expressed her stance first.
But unexpectedly, the person on the other side said, "Mr. Lin, you don't have to come."
Lin Ruolan was extremely disappointed, and her heart skipped a beat.
It seems that because of the late arrival, the other party was annoyed and the business was no longer possible.
"Mr. Li, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be late. My daughter and I are here. Give me some time and I'll be right over."
"I'm sorry, I should be the one to say it. Mr. Lin, you really don't have to come here in person. I'll send the contract to your company right away so you can take a look at it and then sign it. What do you think?"
Lin Ruolan mistook it for auditory hallucinations, so she simply turned her phone to hands-free speakerphone, and finally heard clearly.
"Mr. Li, I don't understand what you mean?"
"Mr. Lin, that's it. I really hope to cooperate with you. If you have anything to do, I'm already near your company."
Lin Ruolan was extremely surprised. Everything changed so quickly that she didn't expect it.
Surprises and surprises are always exciting.
After pausing for a while to collect her thoughts, Lin Ruolan said: "Well, I'll go back to the company to receive you right away."
"It's really not necessary. You're too polite. I'll put the contract in your company. You can sign it at any time. As long as you say a word, I'll be there at your call. That's it."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Ruolan was still in shock.
What is going on?
It was as if there was an invisible force helping her, controlling everything, making all the things that she originally thought were troublesome become easy and within reach.
Could it be...
Lin Ruolan looked at Jiangnan. He was also looking at her at the moment, his eyes were firm and bright.
Impossible. If he had this ability, he would not have been arrested back then. How could a person who has spent so many years in prison have such ability.
"Okay, can we go to the movies with our daughter?"
Jiang Nan had a smile on his face, as if everything was indifferent and not worth mentioning, and this matter alone was the top priority.
"What did you just do?"
Even though she knew it couldn't be Jiangnan, Lin Ruolan still asked.
"I'm taking my daughter shopping for something to eat. Is there any problem?" Jiang Nan calmly adjusted his collar.
"Nothing, then, go ahead."
Lin Ruolan touched Lin Keer's head, and the little guy jumped up happily.
"That's great, Mom, please hold Dad's hand. My parents are holding hands with me. We are a family."
Lin Keer grabbed two big hands and moved closer to the middle.
When they met, Lin Ruolan was about to shrink back, but Jiang Nan grabbed her hand.
The war general of a generation, who stood firm in the face of thousands of troops, now blushes slightly and cannot calm down.
"Hey, Dad, why is your face so red? Wow, Mom's is too, are you embarrassed?"
Lin Keer stuck out her tongue and smiled mischievously.
Lin Ruolan resisted slightly and wanted to push away, but Jiang Nan's hand was so strong that she had no choice but to let him go for the time being.
A family of three held hands and entered the cinema.
While Lin Ke'er wasn't paying attention, Lin Ruolan finally broke free from Jiang Nan's hand.
Going to the movies has become a luxury, and this is her first time in the past few years.
This is also the first time for Jiangnan.
The two adults were very silent, and no one spoke.
What I occasionally heard was Lin Keer's laughter.
For more than an hour, Jiang Nan's eyes almost never left his daughter and wife.
And Lin Ruolan, perhaps too tired, actually fell asleep without realizing it.
The movie finally ends.
Lin Ruolan rested her head on Jiang Nan's shoulder, unconsciously.
Lin Ke'er shushed obediently and waited in Jiang Nan's arms for her mother to wake up.
It wasn't until the venue was cleared and another movie was about to be shown that Lin Ruolan woke up.
She was surprised and quickly kept her distance from him.
It has been many days, and I have rarely had such a peaceful sleep.
The two looked at each other, a little embarrassed.
"Mom, let's go have a meal." Lin Ke'er pouted and touched her belly.
"Okay, what do you want to eat?" Lin Ruolan silently looked at her little face.
"I want to eat daddy's cooking. It's delicious."
Ever since the first time she ate Jiangnan's cooking, the little girl fell in love with it. It was delicious, sweet, and had the long-lost taste of her father.
Lin Ruolan couldn't stop him, so she had to quietly warn Jiangnan that she must leave after cooking.
Jiang Nan readily agreed and immediately took Lin Ke'er to buy groceries.
When they returned to the community, it was already dark.
Lin Ruolan was about to open the door, but found that the door was open. When she pushed the door open, the house was in a mess.
"Have you been robbed? How could this happen?"
Lin Ruolan ran in nervously.
Jiang Nan's eyes changed and he quickly handed Lin Keer over to Lin Ruolan.
"Wait for me for a while, I'll be right back."
Immediately, his figure flickered and disappeared from the stairs in the blink of an eye.
