Chapter 243: Mu Shaoling's Secondary Card, Beloved
After Ruan Meimei was taken away, Lin Ning rested absentmindedly for a while before continuing to film.
At the end of the day, from morning to night, the crying scene was shot over and over again, but the director could never be satisfied with the result.
"Forget it, let's call it a day. You two can go back and think about it and try to find the right feeling tomorrow." The director looked at the male and female protagonists in the camera and said disappointedly.
Lin Ning had no time to think about the drama now and just wanted to leave the set as soon as possible.
The acting career is certainly important, but no matter how important it is, it is only as important as marrying Mu Shaoling, a life-long event.
When the RV left the set, Lin Ning called Zhang Xingan.
Zhang Xingan was drinking tea and playing chess with his father at home.
It was rare for Fan Lan to see the father and son so harmonious. He kept putting fruits and melon seeds in front of the father and son to serve them.
When the phone rang, Zhang Xingan saw that it was Lin Ning and pressed the answer button directly, but his eyes were still fixed on the chessboard: "What's the matter?"
Lin Ning: "Where are you? Is it convenient to meet you?"
Zhang Xing'an: "I'm afraid not now, but tomorrow. I'm playing chess with my father, and the battle is in full swing. How can I leave?"
As he spoke, Zhang Xingan dropped a white chess piece.
Zhang Yide smiled and picked up a black chess piece, but he hadn't played it yet. Although he didn't know why his son started to take care of the family, and he went home to play chess with him, but as a father, he was quite satisfied with his son's change.
Lin Ning: "It's okay if we don't meet. I'll tell you on the phone. Well... Ruan Bai's father passed away. Did you know..."
Zhang Xing'an suddenly changed his sitting posture and frowned: "What? Ruan Bai's father passed away? Who did you listen to?"
Lin Ning: "As expected, you still don't know. I also heard what Ruan Meimei said. The police came to the set and took Ruan Meimei away. I inquired about it and said that Ruan Meimei was legally responsible for the death of Ruan Bai's father and he has passed away.
It’s been two days…”
Before Lin Ning finished speaking, Zhang Xingan on the other end had immediately pressed the hang up button.
Zhang Yide, who was about to play the black chess piece, and Fan Lan, who was peeling the apple, both heard what his son repeated.
"Why did Ruan Bai's father pass away?" Fan Lan was still holding a fruit knife and an apple in his hand. Without paying attention, he cut his finger with a subconscious action of peeling the apple.
Zhang Yide also stood up and said, "Be careful."
The nanny who was walking around the house immediately came over, found the medicine box, and bandaged Fan Lan's cut finger.
Zhang Xing'an put on his coat, with a gloomy expression, and was about to go out: "I don't know what's going on yet. I'll go find her first and ask about the situation."
He knew that he could never get through to Ruan Bai's phone.
But he still tried.
Before getting into the car, Fan Lan came out wearing a coat and carrying a bag: "Mom is going with you."
Zhang Xing'an stopped him: "Don't go, I will pick you up when there is some news." He was afraid that his mother would see Ruan Bai's indifferent attitude towards him.
No mother wants to see her son being wronged by his wife.
By then, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, which is on the verge of breaking up, will probably get even worse.
…
During the long night, Zhang Xingan couldn't call Ruan Bai's cell phone. He tried many times and finally the cell phone ran out of battery.
Zhang Xingan had investigated which hospital Ruan Likang lived in before his death, so he came to the hospital, but the people at the hospital said that the deceased's daughter had already left the hospital.
Zhang Xing'an carried his marriage certificate with him, saying that he was the legal husband of the deceased's daughter and wanted to know more about the sudden death of the deceased.
One of the nurses had read the gossip news some time ago and recognized the man in front of her as Ruan Bai's husband.
So, I said everything I could say.
Zhang Xingan's eyes became more and more sharp. He knew that Ruan Meimei was trash, but he didn't expect that Ruan Meimei could be such a trash.
What happened in Ruan Likang's ward was rumored in various ways. In short, the whole hospital knew about it.
After inquiring about the specific situation, Zhang Xingan left the hospital lobby.
He didn't go home or go back to the bar. Instead, he got into his car and drove to a parking space near the entrance of the hospital.
Someone just parked a car in front of the parking space. It was a Golf costing over RMB 100,000.
Zhang Xingan got out of the car, took out a wad of cash from his wallet, and said to the other party: "Please change the parking space, I want to park here."
The driver looked at the money and Zhang Xingan, stunned!
Is there such a person?
Isn't this just an ordinary parking space? Isn't it decorated with gold rims?
Finally, I changed parking spaces.
Zhang Xingan was sitting in the car, with the car turned on and the air conditioner turned on to make the car warmer. He lit a cigarette and smoked while looking in the direction of the hospital entrance.
In fact, he could go home first and come back tomorrow morning.
But he was too confused for no reason. He just wanted to find such a place with a wide view so that he could see Ruan Bai for the first time tomorrow morning.
The hospital said that Ruan Likang will be cremated and buried tomorrow.
This night was extremely long for Zhang Xingan, but for Ruan Bai, it was extremely short.
When he woke up, Ruan Bai woke up from his dream.
She dreamed that she was back when she was a teenager and was bullied by Ruan Meimei and Li Huizhen, their mother and daughter!
Ruan Meimei stole all the pocket money in her schoolbag!
Later, Li Huizhen also snatched away all the money she kept in her pocket!
Then the dream scene changed again.
The next scene showed Li Huizhen and Ruan Meimei crying and begging for mercy in the court, begging her to withdraw the lawsuit, and she actually agreed like a saint.
In reality, when it comes to prosecuting Ruan Meimei and Li Huizhen, Ruan Bai listened to the advice of barrister Li Wenqi and vowed that he would never be merciful again!
After waking up, Ruan Bai went into the kitchen to make breakfast and told himself: "It doesn't matter, dreams are all reverses, they are all reverses..."
Ruanruan woke up and heard her mother muttering, so she went over, rubbed her eyes and asked: "Mom, what are you saying is the opposite..."
Ruan Bai was about to answer his daughter's question when he bent down and suddenly saw the man standing at the door of the kitchen.
Mu Shaoling had already washed up and put on a suit and tie. When he got closer, his face smelled of aftershave. Then, a very special card was placed on the kitchen counter: "Put it away for later use."
, my secondary card.”
Ruan Bai looked at the pure black card with a golden stripe, and was stunned for a long time.
Is the dream really the opposite?
I just dreamed that my stepmother had plundered all my little pocket money, but in reality, someone inhumanely gave me a "secondary card".
Ruan Bai knows what Mu Shaoling's secondary card represents. He can't spend enough money...
"I have time to take the children to buy some clothes for the cold weather. I don't have time, thank you for your trouble." Mu Shaoling was afraid that she would refuse, so he used this as an excuse to block Ruan Bai's refusal.
If Ruan Bai wanted to refuse, she didn't say it because of his words. She couldn't afford the money to buy clothes for her children in her current predicament...
