Ran Mi turned to look at him and asked in a low voice: "Who is Hailan?"
"I want to know so much, I'll take you to see her."
He walked past her, turned on the water and started washing.
His figure was reflected in the huge mirror. He picked up the razor, lathered it up, and neatly shaved off the stubble that had grown out at night. Once and again, his chin was smooth.
His sharp-edged face, eyes as deep as the starry sky on a cold night, and sexy lips that always carry an uncertain sneer, make him look handsome, but also indifferent.
The morning light filtered in through the stained glass window, and the colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, purple, and the rainbow were quietly smearing on Li Yichuan's upper body.
When he first built this house, Ran Songwu specially installed colored frosted glass in Ran Mi's room. He felt that this was particularly suitable for his quiet baby daughter. He loved this daughter, so he gave her the best of everything, including the room.
It is also beautiful, like a castle in a fairy tale. I hope Ran Mi will live such a dreamlike life for the rest of her life.
But could Ran Songwu have imagined that his daughter was now like a cattail standing in the strong wind and waves, she could only tighten her body to resist the wind and waves.
The so-called fairy tale is like this light and shadow. When people walk through it, they reach reality in a few steps.
Li Yichuan only glanced at her and continued washing his face.
Ran Mi suddenly walked over, hugged him from behind, and pressed her face against Li Yichuan's back.
His muscles were very strong. She put her hands around his waist and clasped her hard, without saying a word, harder, harder...
Her breath was like a breeze, blowing on his back. Li Yichuan's breathing also tightened. He put the hand holding the towel on the sink and turned his face slightly.
Of course he didn't think Ran Mi liked him anymore, he thought this girl was trying to please her...
How could he know that Ran Mi was using this method to bid farewell to her past self. She was no longer the princess, and even if she lived here again, she would no longer be. It was this man who took her back to the fairy tale castle,
Then he destroyed the fairy tale castle with his body and words, telling her that she was not a princess, she was a woman, a woman who was of no use before.
So, since he doesn't feel bad about the money he spent on her, she doesn't need to be polite anymore.
His fingers slowly touched her smooth arms. Suddenly, he turned around, picked her up, turned around again, and placed her on the washstand.
"The fever is gone, are you feeling itchy?"
His gaze was like a sharp sword, peeling off her fragile expression, but when his hand came up to cover it, it was extremely gentle. His long fingers touched her forehead, slid across her eyes, and touched her still dry lips.
, rub gently.
Ran Mi pointed to his stretched-up pants and said softly:
"Yes, my fever is gone, but you have a fever!"
Li Yichuan's eyes narrowed. Many young men in the early morning were like this.
Especially when a beautiful woman is in front of her, with soft fragrant soft jade, delicate and charming features, which represents a man's pride, he will raise his head high and want to get into the beautiful woman's soft body and hit her hard until she whimpers softly and moans to her.
He begged for mercy.
But before he could take action, she had already moved her hand first, leaned back a little, and said softly: "Do you want to do it?"
Li Yichuan didn't like her expression very much. He pursed his lips slightly and stared at the subtle changes in expression on her face, just like a cheetah staring at the little white rabbit and guessing which way she was going to escape.
But Ran Mi jumped down from the washstand, sighed softly, and said quietly:
"If you don't want to, forget it, I still have to go to work. Tell me the story about you and Hailan when you want to say it. I hope my dad and I didn't bully her so badly that you would be willing to use your own life for her.
It's not worth it for you to do something big in life, but you helped me out. I want to thank you, Li Yichuan. If it weren't for you, I might have been sold by a street gangster in Las Vegas.
, it’s really much better to be with you than to be with others.”
Li Yichuan's face suddenly became ugly, and under his lower abdomen, the proud head that represented morning gradually lowered its head.
It's too easy for a woman to spoil a man's interest, just mention the thing that matters to him the most. There are two results, one is to make him angry, the other is to completely kill his interest like now.
It's a multiple-choice question of either A or B, which is very easy to do.
Ran Mi just took the opportunity to slip under his arm, took out a beautiful suit from the closet, combed her beautiful long curly hair, clamped it with a crystal top clip, a little lip gloss, and two light eyebrows, which was enough to make her
Brilliant.
"Aren't you going to return the car you gave me? Aren't you very generous to your pets?"
She turned to look at him who was getting dressed, and asked him in a low voice. Her voice was very soft, and once it softened, it was obviously not a plea, but because of the sound of her voice, it always made the man feel itchy.
Li Yichuan also felt itchy in his heart. Ran Mi might not be good at anything, but her body really seduced him. Those soft and tender feelings, just thinking about it, made him feel that this girl was a natural beauty.
I just want to press her down and fuck her hard.
But he was Li Yichuan after all. If he pounced on him at this time, he would lose his manly demeanor.
He fastened his cufflinks, slowly regained his domineering attitude of wanting to control everything, sneered at the corners of his lips, took out his keys, threw them on the bed, and walked away.
Ran Mi breathed a sigh of relief, took the car keys, went out, and slowly slid down the long mountain road in the villa area behind his car.
His car was driving very fast, sending up fine dust as it rushed forward.
Ran Mi didn't want to imitate him, so why bother with the wind? She opened the car window, letting the fresh morning breeze blow in, listening to the morning news, watching the green trees retreat...
For the first time, she gained the upper hand verbally, causing Li Yichuan to return disappointed.
She felt great and felt funny about how submissive she had been some time ago. Could he still hit her? If he hit her, wouldn't she hit him back?
——————————————Demarcation line————————————————
Ran Mi parked the car in the parking lot downstairs of the company. The security guards came from the duty room. There are many people driving million-dollar cars, but she is probably the one who works as a salesperson in the advertising company.
.
This outfit is also beautiful, with a little black dress from Chanel's latest season, a red gemstone necklace hanging around her neck, and Bai Xi's skin on her neck. The three colors collide together, and it's hard not to let people look at her.
Ran Mi doesn't want to change herself because of other people's eyes.
Wearing well or wearing poorly is just a layer of human skin. Since you can wear well, why should you deliberately wear poor clothing to get closer? She tried it and others didn't accept it, so she stopped forcing it.
By myself.
If others like you and respect you, they won't do it just for this kind of skin.
After getting off the elevator, all kinds of eyes came towards her. Some were stunning from men, some were complicated from women. They were like flying arrows, whizzing towards her to greet her.
She straightened her back, and she didn't do anything dirty. She was a legal couple, and she only worked at night with her husband.
Ye Jin stood at the door, her eyes almost falling out of her head with jealousy. When Ran Mi came over, she couldn't help but taunted softly: "Hey, I gained something last night."
Ran Mi said seriously: "Yes, I have gained a lot. Sister Ye, can I recommend you another day?"
There was a lot of snickering in the office, eager to watch a good show.
Everyone doesn't like Ran Mi because she is an airborne idiot, and they don't like Ye Jin. Needless to say, the reason is that.
"It's a meeting."
Director Zhang walked out of the inner room and knocked on the glass door.
Everyone quickly collected their things and followed Director Zhang to the conference room.
Director Zhang didn't have much airs. He sat down on the chair and started the meeting directly without waiting for everyone to sit down.
"Competition in the industry has been fierce recently, and the performance of our sales department has declined significantly. Four colleagues have resigned in the past few days. Please reorganize your team and reduce it to one team. Lin Liping, Ye Jin, Huang Min, you three will lead the team
, hand in the list, everyone, please work hard this month, the winning team, as long as the goal reaches one million, the company will reward a seven-day trip to Thailand."
As soon as Director Zhang finished speaking, the small conference room became lively.
"Wow, is it true? You can wear swimsuits in Phuket. I bought a bikini."
"Look at Tai Ji, you're stupid. What's so fun about that?"
"The company pays for it, and it's fun to go anywhere. I haven't traveled for a long time, and my life is miserable."
Director Zhang interrupted everyone's imagination and said unhappily: "Okay, hurry up and put the people together. They are all old acquaintances. It should be more neat."
Ran Mi was sitting in the corner. She knew how to freely combine, but she was afraid that no one would want her in the end. She sat calmly, waiting for the final order.
It doesn't matter, she can run forward alone.
Seeing that the personnel list was about to come out, Ye Jin deliberately glanced at her from the corner of his eye, while Huang Min remained silent.
Everyone calmed down and looked at Ran Mi. At this time, Lao Lin suddenly said, "Ran Mi, come to my team. She is good and very hardworking."
Ran Mi looked up in shock. This was the first compliment she heard after coming to the company.
The small conference room was quiet for a while, but then it started to get noisy again. Everyone took their things and left.
Ran Mi was the last to get up and went out to find Lao Lin to thank him.
"Master, thank you."
"No need to thank me, don't you have an order in hand? You must have been to that kind of tourist resort. Let's go and have fun."
Lin Liping spoke straight, and everyone suddenly realized that the order from St. An's Company... was not a small amount! There was a brief silence in the crowd, and various "attacks" on Lin Liping came.
"Brother Lin, you are cheating."
"Old Lin, I want to join your team."
Lin Li had a straight face and paid no attention to anyone. He had a weird temper and was very stubborn. I heard that drinking with others would cause stomach bleeding. But because of this stubbornness, he could always win big orders that others could not win.
I can become brothers with some customers.
When she realized that Ran Mi was beginning to become her fierce rival at work, Lin Jin sat on the chair with her arms folded and looked at Ran Mi with resentment.
Fights between men are sometimes inexplicable, but in fact, fights between women are even more inexplicable. Sometimes a wrong look can trigger the crazy secretion of estrogen, leading to a crazy attack by the other party.
She rolled her eyes, came over with coffee, put one hand lightly on Ran Mi, took a sip of coffee, and whispered:
"Ran Mi is quite capable, Lao Lin, you have found a treasure."
"Thanks to you."
Lin Liping replied bluntly, collected his things and left.
He would definitely go out to visit clients at this time every day, following an unbreakable rule. When he arrived at the door, he turned to Ran Mi and said:
"Xiao Ran, make a complete list of your customers and mark those that need to be maintained. Don't be idle."
Ran Mi quickly agreed and sat back in her seat to do some work.
When the other two people in the team saw it, they came over quickly and said with a smile:
"Ran Mi, you don't have to run out anyway. Can you help us sort it out? Just mark it and type it out. We'll go out and talk about things."
"OK."
Although Ran Mi disagreed with their previous sentence, she already had Sheng An's order in her hands, but they still had to complete the task, so she nodded and agreed.
Seeing her nodding obediently, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, put the list in front of her, turned around and ran away.
The information in front of her suddenly piled up to ten books high. Ran Mi was a little stunned. She only had a few pieces of information. It turned out that these people had such huge resources!
Everyone in the company watched silently, and after a while, they all dispersed, slapped their butts and left.
They are all hard-working white-collar workers, and they all have to fight for their wages and travel to Thailand. Unlike Ran Mi, who has Sheng'an to defend herself, and just smile at the big boss, it is a big deal.
In the huge office, only Ran Mi, Lin Jin, and clerks were alone.
Typing up page after page of information was really tiring. Ran Mi was not very fast in typing, and she was afraid of making mistakes, so she went even slower. She only ate a sandwich at noon and continued in the afternoon.
Lin Jin kept crossing her legs, drinking coffee, and calling clients at the same time. She turned the leather chair coquettishly, laughed a few times, and invited people to attend concerts and musicals. She really took advantage of her clients.
However, this Lin Jin seemed to be quite capable, no worse than that Xing Jianing. She kept making phone calls all day long and chatted with the boss with a smile. The boss smiled and said a few words, and it seemed that the negotiation was concluded.
A business.
Ran Mi didn't even know how she could have so much to talk to a man? Especially a man she had only met once or twice, how could she talk about how to touch her hands?
It was almost half past five when someone outside the door shouted to Lin Jin:
"Manager Lin, the supplies for your sales department have arrived. Director Zhang asked you to arrange for people to move them up. All other departments have received them."
Lin Jin hung up the phone, waved his hand impatiently, and said to Ran Mi:
"Ran Mi, please go and pick up something from the logistics department."
This job was usually done by newcomers, so Ran Mi didn't refuse, stood up and left.
The logistics department was on the first floor. Ran Mi received a large box of cooling supplies, such as mung beans with ten drops of water, which was enough for more than 20 people. She carried it out alone, walked to the elevator and pressed it, and found that the elevator was on strike.
!
"Hell, did you make a mistake? You asked me to climb to the ninth floor."
She cursed in a low voice, felt worried, and walked upstairs with the box in her arms. Before she even climbed a level, it sank to the point where her arms were almost broken.
After walking downstairs for a while, the high heels were not strenuous and made her legs lift higher. She simply took off her shoes, placed them on top of the box, and walked barefoot.
When she reached the seventh floor, Ran Mi was soaked with sweat. She rested for a while on the stairs and decided to take them in batches, otherwise she would roll down the stairs like a exhausted cow.
After holding ten one-pound bags of mung beans, she stepped onto the steps of the eighth floor. Suddenly her foot slipped and she almost fell down the corridor. She quickly threw away the mung beans and grabbed the railing tightly with both hands... Oh my god, If she had been wearing high heels, she would have broken her leg today!
The floor was slippery, so she wiped it with her fingers. It was the dishwashing liquid that had just been poured on it!
She raised her head suddenly. The corridor was quiet. She was the only one holding the railing, shocked and trembling with anger.
The cell phone was ringing desperately at this time, making her heart feel even more uncomfortable in the silent corridor.
She stood leaning against the wall, took out her mobile phone, and then shouted in a tight voice, Shen Sichen's voice came from upstairs.
"What the hell are you doing standing there?"
She looked up and saw Shen Sichen striding down.
"Moving things."
She wiped her sweat and ordered Shen Sichen.
A few bags were thrown downstairs and were broken into pieces. Ran Mi was silent and put the intact mung beans into a cardboard box, letting Shen Sichen hold them while she walked up with her shoes.
She twisted her foot, and when she walked, she felt a sharp pain in her ankle.
Everyone in the office had left, and even the door was locked. Ran Mi looked at the time, and it was just time to get off work! Her bag was still locked inside, and Lin Jin obviously knew that she had gone downstairs!
On the whole floor, he and she were the only ones standing facing the glass door.
Looking at her tense expression, Shen Sichen put down the things, took out a neatly folded dark blue embroidered handkerchief, wiped the sweat on her forehead, and whispered:
"Resign, I don't think this job is suitable for you."
"How do you know if you are not suitable? There is no such thing as being suitable or not in this world!"
Ran Mi yelled over, startling Shen Sichen.
Ran Mi soon realized that she had gone too far. She took the handkerchief, wiped it on her face a few times, and said softly:
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't lose my temper with you. Are you here to tell me about Hailan?"
Shen Sichen looked at her flushed little face, with a few strands of thin curly hair messily stuck to her neck, and couldn't help but reached out to smooth her hair.
"Well, I wanted to come over this morning, but I got caught up in company matters."
"Oh, who is she?"
Ran Mi was so tired that she leaned her butt against the wall and sat down on the ground, lowering her head and gently rubbing her ankles, pretending not to care who Hailan was, most likely he was his ex-lover.
The skirt was stretched tightly, creating a beautiful shape for her legs. The blood gemstone slipped out from her neckline and was stained with her sweat, making it shiny.
She felt that what she was wearing today was actually a bit ridiculous. Although it made her look impressive for a few seconds when she first entered the company, the result was that it did not make her look better, but made her climb the stairs almost to the point of losing her scent.
Shen Sichen knelt down, looked into her eyes and said:
"Hai Lan is his biological sister."
"Ah?" Ran Mi looked up in shock. Did she ever have a classmate named Hailan, and was she ever bullied by her? Could it be that her father was the one keeping her... Bah, how is that possible?
Shen Sichen pondered for a while and whispered:
"Ran Mi, after your father was admitted to college, the family couldn't afford his tuition. His childhood sweetheart and fiancée Su Qin, who also went to college with him, dropped out of school and came out to work to support his education.
Su Qin later provided him with a graduate degree. He started a business while he was in graduate school. He won an award for an icon he designed for a company. With his first capital, he slowly started doing business with his mentor. He and Su Qin The gap widened, so he regretted his marriage and fell in love with his mentor's daughter. In addition, in those years when the stock market made money, the Ran family's business became more and more "
"But my mother is not the tutor's daughter." Ran Mi was confused.
"No, he didn't know your mother at that time. The mentor's daughter later went abroad."
"Li Yichuan is Su Qin's son?" Ran Mi guessed it immediately, but the last time she saw Li's mother, it seemed that her name was not Su Qin, but Su Yifang...
Shen Sichen took out his mobile phone and pulled up the files to show Ran Mi. The juvenile detention center added Hai Lan's name, allowing him to finally find the case from that year through the police system.
"Yes, the countryside was still very closed at that time. Your father had actually become a de facto couple with her. After he regretted the marriage, Li Yichuan's mother did not complain. However, there were too many rumors in the village, so she had to marry a lame carpenter from another village. , but you know, a woman... So, she was beaten all over her body on the night of her wedding. Later, she gave birth to Li Yichuan and her sister Li Hailan. Unfortunately, Li Hailan had cerebral palsy. Li Yichuan's father insisted that Su Qin was unfaithful and Li Yichuan was not his child. , not to mention taking responsibility for my sick daughter, so I kicked them out."
Ran Mi's heart twitched, Li Yichuan's mother's life was so miserable! How could his father do such a glaring thing back then?
"Su Qin came to K City to seek help from your father to treat his daughter's illness. You were already five years old at that time, but you may not remember such a guest coming to your home."
Ran Mi frowned and tried hard to recall what happened when she was five years old.
But it has been a long time, and she is indeed a very forgetful person, and she doesn't like to meet strangers. I really can't imagine what kind of guests came to the house that year.
"At that time, his name was not Li Yichuan, but Li Haichuan. Can you remember it? They were both names given by Su Qin, who is open to all rivers. She felt that she loved Ran Songwu, and they got together well and separated. No matter what she had to do, it was all hers. Whatever you want."
Open to all rivers? Su Qin must be a very generous and kind-hearted woman. Why doesn't her father cherish it? Is it just because of her old appearance? No, she doesn't want to accept her father as such a person! Her father has always been kind to people, even to the nanny at home. He also helped whenever he could and never said a harsh word.
But Shen Sichen showed her a copy of the transcript from that year——
Ran Mi stopped rubbing her feet and stared blankly at the patterns on the carpet, feeling guilty for having done such a ruthless and cruel thing to her father. She could feel Li Yichuan's hatred for her, and Li's mother's hatred for her. rejection...
"However, it seems that Su Qin failed to get help from your father. When she was in dire straits, she took her two children to live in the Nanjing Orphanage and worked as a cleaner there."
Nanjing Orphanage——
Memories suddenly came to Ran Mi's mind.
When she was twelve years old, she went to Nanjing Kindergarten with her father. Her father donated things on behalf of the group. Among those gifts was a very big rabbit...
Her breathing became tight. At that time, her father asked her to distribute gifts. There was a little girl leaning on the chair who kept staring at the big rabbit in her arms. However, she felt that the expression in the eyes of the little girl was scary, so she deliberately The rabbit was given to someone else, but he didn't dare to get close enough to give the little girl a gift.
Is that Li Hailan?
"When he was seventeen years old, your father went to the orphanage. In the same year, he entered the juvenile detention center. For Li Hailan, he broke his head and almost blinded him. That year, the orphanage caught fire. He Both mother and Hailan are dead, and he has no whereabouts."
Ran Mi stood up holding on to the wall, gasping for air.
Li Yichuan's current mother is an adoptive mother, but she must be related to him because their facial features are very similar.
"Ran Mi, I... suspect that he was responsible for your father's car accident, and the Ran family's business... he must hate you... I'm still afraid... he is your brother..."
Ran Mi's breathing became even faster. She leaned against the wall tightly, barely daring to move. No wonder Li Yichuan always looked at her with such complicated eyes.
Did he want to play with her slowly until she was tired from dancing and lost her last bit of strength? She sat down again, holding the box in her hand, panting heavily.
what to do?
Her father had committed such a sin and was much more cruel than she imagined! He exchanged Su Qin's hard work and life for his wealth, and then watched Su Qin live such a miserable life. What kind of face did he have back then? Why go to the orphanage to make donations? Why does he have the nerve to show up there?
"Let's go back."
She gritted her teeth and wanted to stand up, but her legs were really weak, so she sat back down.
"I went to find someone to get the key and see what happened to the elevator. It was fine when I came up."
Shen Sichen called the floor phone, but no one answered, so he comforted her and hurried downstairs.
Ran Mi buried her head in her long hair and took a deep breath. She really couldn't digest this cruel story. How could this happen? How could this happen? Dad, how could you bear it? You had money at that time, why didn't you give me money? Treat Hailan? Does her mother not allow it?
The elevator bell rang suddenly.
Ran Mi was startled and turned around to look over. She saw that the elevator was slowly coming up and stopped at the ninth floor. The bright silver door slowly opened and Li Yichuan walked out steadily.
He came to pick her up from get off work? By the way, he said he wanted to see Li Hailan!
She was afraid to see the picture of the poor girl on the cold tombstone. This was a crime committed by her father, which ruined other people's lives!
Li Yichuan came closer, looked down at the full big box, and then looked at her embarrassed look. He squatted down, pulled her ankle, looked at it, and said with a smile:
"Is this the result of your work? I thought you were so arrogant!"
"I dont go."
Ran Mi was frightened and blurted out tremblingly.
"What?"
Li Yichuan was startled for a moment, looking at her frightened face, his eyes suddenly darkened.
He stood up and stared at her for a few seconds, then bent down, dragged her up from the ground, hugged her sideways, and strode towards the elevator.
Opportunities in life are always so annoying. Shen Sichen asked someone to open the elevator, but Li Yichuan took the beauty away.
He took another elevator up and saw only the big box and her shoes in the corridor.
————————————Demarcation line——————————————
The car is driving on the road.
Ran Mi leaned against the car door as much as possible, just like she was riding in his car for the first time in Las Vegas, not daring to get any closer to him.
Her fear was quickly noticed by Li Yichuan.
He slowed down the car silently, reached over, took her little hand, and pulled her towards him.
"Sit over here."
"Don't do this, the traffic police will deduct points if they see it."
Ran Mi became even more nervous. He forcefully pulled her into his arms. After struggling twice, he pushed her onto her lap. His hand touched her buttocks and stopped on her back. His fingers gently Knocking.
This is an uncomfortable posture.
Ran Mi couldn't see his expression, but the slight rise and fall of his lower abdomen told her that he was very calm, at least a hundred times calmer than her.
"Are you afraid of me?" He suddenly spoke, his voice low and hoarse.
"No, you let me get up, I feel uncomfortable." Ran Mi whispered.
"Why are you afraid of me?" He didn't let go, and continued: "I hit you? Did I ask you to perform a special service for me?"
As he spoke, he pressed her head.
"No, Li Yichuan."
She was startled, really afraid that he would suddenly do something like that. Her ear was touching his place!
"Ran Mi, I bought you because I hope you can make me happy. How can you make me happy with such a sad face?"
He let go of his hand and returned his fingers to the steering wheel.
Ran Mi quickly sat up, panting, and shrank back to the car door.
