Lu Yuan glanced at the curtain and said quickly: "It's Lu Ran."
"Lu Ran?" Mu Qian couldn't help but be curious, "Who is it?"
"It's a girl adopted by my third uncle." Lu Yuan said, "I heard that her parents and my third uncle were old friends. After the accidental death, my third uncle adopted her. It's been more than ten years."
It turned out to be Lu Yujiang's adopted daughter.
Mu Qian glanced over there again and said, "I have seen her."
"What?" Lu Yuan seemed slightly surprised, "Have you seen her? When?"
Mu Qian didn't answer for a while, but just said: "What's wrong? I've seen her before, do I need to be so surprised?"
Lu Yuan said: "She has been in poor health since she was a child, so she has been raised at home. She has basically never gone out or had contact with people outside. You see, she will not even attend a family dinner like today.
How did you meet her?"
When Mu Qian heard this, she couldn't help but become more curious, "Don't go out, don't see anyone? Is this adoption? Isn't this house arrest?"
"Basically, I don't see her very often." Lu Yuan said, "Uncle San said that she must rest and not be disturbed. Where did you see her? Are you admitting your mistake?"
Admit it? Mu Qian raised her eyebrows slightly. Based on her memory, unless there were two identical people in the world, how could she admit it?
A long time ago, when Mr. Huo went to the hospital for a physical examination, she once saw a girl peering into Huo Jinbei's office from outside.
And the face just reflected on the window was clearly the girl we met once in the hospital!
Mu Qian quickly took Lu Yuan's hand and said, "Let's go find her and have a chat. Won't we know whether we have admitted our mistake?"
She turned around and was about to walk out, but Lu Yuan quickly stretched out his hand to hold her and said, "No."
"What's wrong?" Mu Qian was confused.
"Third uncle's house..." Lu Yuan looked embarrassed, "We can't just go in."
Mu Qian only found it funny, "Aren't you a family?"
"Yes." Lu Yuan said, "But the third uncle has a weird temperament and does not allow others to enter his house casually."
Hearing this, Mu Qian raised her eyebrows and said, "Then I would like to ask him for permission. I want to go to the head office to get to know and chat with his adopted daughter, right?"
Lu Yuan shook his head, "Uncle San protected Lu Ran very well. Based on my understanding of him, he would not agree."
For Mu Qian, this is even more interesting.
After a moment, she sneered and said: "This is not only good protection, it is protection to the extreme. Hey, by the way, Lu Yujiang has been single for so many years, right?"
"Yeah." Lu Yuan responded, and then suddenly realized something, "What are you thinking about?"
Mu Qian suddenly laughed out loud, "Whatever you are thinking in your mind is what I am thinking! Don't you think he is abnormal?"
"Although there is something wrong," Lu Yuan said, "but he used Lu Ran's poor health as an excuse, so there is nothing we can do."
"Then how many times have you met Lu Ran? What do you know about her?" Mu Qian asked again.
Lu Yuan thought for a while and said: "The last time we met face to face must have been a few years ago. In these years, at most, we have occasionally caught a glimpse through the window like just now."
"Then when you saw her before, was she in poor health?" Mu Qian asked again.
Lu Yuan shook his head again, "I don't feel much."
"Then let's find an answer today!" Mu Qian said, and suddenly pulled Lu Yuan around and went downstairs.
"Qianqian, what do you want to do?" Lu Yuan asked worriedly.
Mu Qian didn't answer, and walked straight to the open space where a large group of people were playing, and saw a little girl playing with a Samoyed.
The little girl was tilting her head to chat with her friends, but the Samoyed she was holding in her hand was eager to rush out and play.
Mu Qian went straight to the target, "Little girl, your dog is so cute. Can you lend it to me to play with?"
The little girl turned around and saw Mu Qian. Although she was only fourteen or fifteen years old, she looked like a human being. Her eyes were dark and shiny, and she was very transparent. "Sister Mu Qian, I know you. You are so beautiful."
!”
"Thank you." Mu Qian said, "You are also very beautiful. You will definitely be a beauty when you grow up."
After a few polite words, Mu Qian successfully got the Samoyed's leather rope and two simple toys from the little girl.
When she turned around, Lu Yuan was standing outside the crowd looking at her, and Mu Qian threw the toy ball in her hand and raised her eyebrows at Lu Yuan.
Not long after, the toy ball suddenly flew towards Lu Yujiang's house.
Then, the Samoyed quickly rushed into the room.
Then, Mu Qian pulled Lu Yuan and rushed into the room, trying to find the dog she had brought with her.
Two aunties stopped me at the door, but none of them stopped me. I watched helplessly as the ball and the dog entered the house.
As soon as Mu Qian entered the door, he quickly took the ball that Samoyed had retrieved from his mouth, and scolded the dog in front of him as if he was losing his temper: "You, you, why are you so disobedient? You are running around everywhere, and wherever there is a ball, you will
Where are you going, right? Then go—"
After saying that, Mu Qian raised her hand and threw the ball up to the second floor.
Sure enough, the Samoyed turned around and immediately ran to the second floor quickly.
"Oh, what are you doing! Why are you letting your dog loose! Get out quickly!"
"Mr. Lu will be angry if you run around like this!"
The two aunts were furious and wanted to drive Mu Qian and Lu Yuan out. How could Mu Qian let her drive them away so easily? While explaining that she wanted to take the dog away, she ducked upstairs.
In the small living room on the second floor, beside the closed curtains, there was a thin figure lying there, secretly opening the curtains and looking out.
Suddenly hearing movement behind her, she turned around and saw the Samoyed standing at the top of the stairs, and Mu Qian walking up quickly from behind. She couldn't help but froze, staring at Mu Qian with her eyes wide open for a moment.
, suddenly jumped up as if suddenly enlightened, "Ah, I have seen you!"
"What a coincidence!" Mu Qian said with a smile, "I've seen you before too!"
The little girl was indeed only eighteen or nineteen years old, probably because she didn't go out all year round. Her skin was too fair, but her eyes were clear and bright, and she looked like a child who was as ignorant of the world.
Seeing that Mu Qian confirmed her words, she immediately rushed to Mu Qian, stretched out her hand to hold her, and said with bright eyes: "You know Huo Jinbei, right? I saw you in his office!"
What is your relationship with him?"
Mu Qian couldn't help but raise her eyebrows again.
He didn't say anything as soon as he came up, so he asked Huo Jinbei?
Before she could answer, the two aunts behind her had already rushed up. One grabbed Lu Ran, and the other grabbed Mu Qian and dragged him down.
"Miss, don't talk to her. You don't even know who she is. The husband will be angry!" the aunt who was holding Lu Ran said as she led her into the room.
Mu Qian was also kept being pushed down. Fortunately, Lu Yuan stepped forward quickly and said to the aunt who was holding her: "Auntie, why are you so rude? Qian Qian is my father's... guest, I
Dad loves her so much, how can you be so rude?"
"Miss Yuan, it's not that I'm rude. Sir, no outsiders are allowed in. If you come in like this, we will all be scolded!"
"Let go! Let go!" Lu Yan quickly pulled away the aunt's hand, "We will go out on our own!"
While they were in chaos, a cold and stern voice suddenly came from the stairs behind them: "What are you doing?"
The women upstairs fell silent for a moment, all looking at Lu Yujiang who was slowly walking upstairs.
Looking at the situation in front of him, Lu Yujiang's face was gloomy, his dark eyes passed over Mu Qian, and finally he looked in the direction of Lu Ran, and ordered in a cold voice: "Mother Zhang, take Miss back to the room!"
Lu Ran was obviously unwilling, and was dragged for two steps, still staring in Mu Qian's direction, with disappointment and expectation in his eyes.
Mu Qian immediately waved to her and said, "Nice to meet you. Oh, by the way, I know Huo Jinbei! He is my brother!"
Across from him, Lu Ran's eyes lit up instantly.
Beside Mu Qian, Lu Yujiang's face suddenly turned as dark as water, and an almost stern gaze passed over Mu Qian's face.
