"Chen Ran, you didn't expect that the first person you saw when you came out was me."
Zhou Jianyun was sitting on the roof of the Audi car, dangling his legs, looking at Chen Ran with leisurely eyes, and his demeanor seemed to be much deeper.
"I really didn't expect it." Chen Ran said calmly, without any concealment. At this time, Zhou Jianyun was indeed a bit beyond his expectation.
On the surface, the tone of the conversation between the two seemed to be a lively one, and there was no hint of deep grudges between the two.
Zhou Jianyun looked Chen Ran up and down, squinted his eyes, and said loudly: "Chen Ran, you are really good at it. I tried so many tricks without hurting you at all. You are indeed my old classmate."
"Average, average..." Chen Ran's eyes flashed with a cold light, but there was no expression on his face.
"Frankly speaking, I came to apologize to you. I heard that you were coming out, so Baba came to apologize. Don't hold a grudge. As the saying goes, enemies should be reconciled...ahem..." Zhou Jianyun said in his mouth
He apologized, but there was no trace of apology in his tone. Rather, it seemed like he was joking. As he spoke, he changed the subject and suddenly spoke in an inaudible whisper.
"You win this time, but you won't be so lucky next time. Don't think that if you find a backer, I can't do anything to you. I'm not afraid to tell you that even if you work hard all your life, you won't be able to win.
If I resist, you will only be trampled under my feet for the rest of your life. Next time we meet, I guarantee that your experience will be even worse than this time."
Zhou Jianyun said this with confidence and with a bit of gritted teeth. No wonder he gritted his teeth secretly with hatred. This time, he spent so much effort to deal with Chen Ran, but Chen Ran was not hurt at all. On the contrary,
Not only did he get beaten up by Wang Wentao, but his father Zhou Hailin was also implicated.
His father was also involved in this competition for the position of Minister of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. For this matter, the old man even went to the capital in person to seek connections. However, who knew that his frame-up of Chen Ran was actually brought to the Standing Committee, and even
He also exposed all his past mistakes and gave his father a verdict that he had failed to teach his son well.
The Organization Department inspects officials. How can he discipline others if his son cannot be disciplined well? This sentence is equivalent to directly kicking his father out. Fortunately, after hearing about this, the old man rushed back in time and attacked decisively.
He quickly took the initiative. Although his father could not sit on the throne of the Organization Department Minister, he took a step further and stabilized the current chaotic situation of the Zhou family faction.
Of course, although the Zhou family took the initiative in time, they had to pay some price in order to keep him.
But this time, after the old man took him back, he neither beat him nor scolded him, but a few days later, he suddenly said that he would be sent to the army. Whether it was him or his mother, listen
No one is willing to make the old man's decision, but the old man has already arranged everything, and they have no say at all.
Entering the army will definitely lead to a lot of hardship. How could he not grit his teeth secretly with hatred? Naturally, he put the blame on Chen Ran, especially since he had to come over and apologize to Chen Ran in person.
This made him feel even more insulted. Who is Chen Ran? Who is he? Now he is asked to bow to Chen Ran. Isn't this a slap in his face?
But this was the old man's decision, and no one could change it. When he came to apologize to Chen Ran, the other side was already ready. As soon as he apologized, they would send him directly to the army.
When Chen Ran heard Zhou Jianyun's words, he knew that Zhou Jianyun had not changed, he was still so conceited, still so insidious, and still so hateful.
Zhou Jianyun said a few words and left. Before leaving, he left an agreement with Chen Ran.
"Chen Ran, we will see you in a year."
When saying this, Zhou Jianyun extended his hand towards Chen Ran, and Chen Ran shook hands with Zhou Jianyun calmly, with a harmonious smile on his face, as if the spring breeze was blowing on his face, "See you in a year,
I will wait for you."
Zhou Jianyun would not let Chen Ran go. How could Chen Ran let Zhou Jianyun go? In the past, if Chen Ran was not provoked by others, he would never take the initiative to provoke others. But when others took the initiative to provoke him, generally speaking, he could avoid them.
Avoid, if you avoid it, you won’t take it seriously. This is the Chen Ran of the past, but the Chen Ran of today will not be like this anymore. If others don’t offend others, I won’t offend them. This is not enough, because when you really offend yourself,
, it's probably already too late...
One year should be enough.
Looking at the Audi car that gradually disappeared from sight, Chen Ran thought, since Zhou Jianyun will come back in a year, he must have enough power to protect himself within this year, and he will never be able to do what he did before.
So powerless to resist.
"Let's go, my father wants to see you."
While Chen Ran was still deep in thought, an Audi car slowly stopped in front of him. The window slowly lowered, revealing a beautiful face, which smiled at Chen Ran.
Chen Ran lowered his head and looked at the woman in the car window. Who could it be if she wasn't Cao Huiyao?
"Your father?"
Seeing the appearance of this woman, Chen Ran knew that she had recognized him, and seeing her again was both within Chen Ran's expectation and beyond his expectation. When he saved her, he thought
He might meet her again, but he didn't expect that the other party would appear in front of him at this time. It was the other party who spoke for him and made the Zhou family compromise.
Cao Huiyao?
Cao Guoxiong.
Chen Ran suddenly thought of who her father was, someone she knew and was related to, and it seemed that there was only one person who could speak for him and get the Zhou family to compromise.
Cao Huiyao gently opened the car door. Today she was wearing a white suit. It was a very pure white color and was tied around the waist. She originally had a plump figure, but now her waist was tied up. It could be said that her figure was bulging forward and backward.
Her figure is highlighted. Although there is no makeup on her face, her complexion is as smooth and shiny as jade. Her small nose bridge, thin cherry-red lips, and two long eyebrows like long eyebrows are dark and shining eyes.
Her eyes seemed to have substance, flowing quietly like water waves, and her smooth and neat bun, which was not messed up at all, was blooming beside her ears like a chrysanthemum, making her dignified and beautiful, but also a little more kind and gentle.
.
"Thanks……"
"Thanks……"
After Cao Huiyao got out of the car, Chen Ran and her began to thank each other almost at the same time. As soon as they started to speak, they both stopped and looked at each other with a smile. The two strangers seemed to have a touch of intimacy.
"Chen Ran, it's me who should say thank you. Thank you for saving Ruoruo, and thank you for saving me. I really don't know how to thank you..." Cao Huiyao's voice was very clear, soft but not wet.
, but as he was talking, he was a little emotional. After he finished speaking, he recovered and smiled softly at Chen Ran: "Let's go, my father is still waiting for you, he wants to see you, um, and Ruoruo.
You will definitely be very happy..."
"Ruoruo, are you okay?" Chen Ran smiled slightly, but did not refuse Cao Huiyao's invitation. He walked around to the other side, opened the car door, raised his legs and sat on the passenger seat, and closed the door behind him.
Cao Huiyao felt a little distressed when she mentioned her daughter. She sat in the driver's seat and whispered in a low tone: "I still refuse to talk, but after seeing you that day, I got better. I have less frequent nightmares when I sleep. My mother said some time ago
She wanted to find you and ask you to accompany her, but she couldn’t contact you. I didn’t expect..."
Having said this, Cao Huiyao remained silent, her eyes became complicated, she started the car and slowly left the Zhongliang Police Station.
Along the way, Cao Huiyao and Chen Ran didn't speak much. Cao Huiyao's eyes were a little absent-minded and he didn't know what he was thinking. But Chen Ran was thinking about the scene of meeting Cao Guoxiong. After experiencing Zhou Jianyun's frame-up, his thoughts were also confused.
So pure.
Soon, the car drove into the Provincial Party Committee Family Courtyard and stopped at the door of Cao's house. Mrs. Cao heard the sound and came to open the door. Before Chen Ran got out of the car, she warmly greeted her, opened the door, and shook his hand excitedly.
Holding Chen Ran's hands, his eyes were filled with tears, and he said emotionally: "Thank you so much, if you hadn't saved Huiyao..."
As he talked, he burst into tears. If Chen Ran hadn't saved Cao Huiyao, the result would be self-evident. It would have been photographed at that time. Once it was spread, it goes without saying that Cao Huiyao's ending would be the same, and Cao Guoxiong would also
It will be greatly affected, and the entire Cao family may...
Thinking of this ending makes people shudder.
Cao Huiyao stood on the other side, looking at this scene with a smile on her face, but there were constant tears on her face. After looking at it for a long time, she wiped her tears, walked forward, supported the emotional Mrs. Cao, and called out, "Mom,"
The two of them escorted Chen Ran into the house.
After sitting down in the living room, Mrs. Cao took Chen Ran's hands, wiping her tears and saying words of gratitude, while Cao Huiyao was busy getting fruits and tea for Chen Ran.
As soon as Bian brought the fruit over, Mrs. Cao put the fruit into Chen Ran's hand for Chen Ran to eat. Tea was brought over, and Mrs. Cao brought the tea into Chen Ran's hand for Chen Ran to drink. It was really a good experience.
The enthusiasm overwhelmed Chen Ran, and at the same time, he felt less and more concerned.
"Xiao Chen, come up." Mrs. Cao seemed to have endless words to say. After saying her words of gratitude, she started a family conversation with Chen Ran, asked about Chen Ran's family, and asked about Chen Ran's current situation, as if she wanted to
It was as if they wanted to find out Chen Ran's background. Fortunately, Cao Guoxiong's cry from upstairs freed him.
Under the leadership of Cao Huiyao, Chen Ran went upstairs, opened the door and walked in. He looked at the whole room with his peripheral vision. This was the Cao family's study. It was somewhat elegant and bookish, but the color tone was not the same.
dignified.
Cao Guoxiong was standing in front of the desk, shirtless and writing calligraphy. When Chen Ran walked in, he didn't stop, and Chen Ran didn't bother him. He walked to the desk and looked down at Cao Guoxiong's calligraphy. Sometimes
You can often tell the way a person does things from his words.
Cao Guoxiong's calligraphy was somewhat beyond Chen Ran's expectation. There was no solemnity or stability at all. Instead, it was full of arrogance. It could be said that he was sharp and sharp. Look at Cao Guoxiong's calligraphy and look at Cao Guoxiong's expression.
Chen Ran seemed to understand that the word Cao Guoxiong was written for him.
Cao Guoxiong didn't write for long. Perhaps because he saw that Chen Ran understood, he stopped writing. He put the brush aside and looked up at Chen Ran.
"I heard that you are proficient in antiques. I have a calligraphy and painting here. Please help me take a look..."
[I woke up at eight o'clock in the morning, but the power went out after I got up. I didn't get a call until after twelve o'clock. I was a little depressed and wanted to move to another place. Thank you Brother Victoryan for the tip. ]
