Chapter 270: Smell of Blood

Mu Wanjun was shocked. She didn't expect that Tu Ran could guess what she was going to say.

But she believed that no third person in Xiangcheng would know that she and Lu Zhiang knew each other, so how did Tu Ran know it?

Tu Ran: It’s just a feeling.

Mu Wanjun: Tu Tu, I didn’t mean to lie to you. The situation between Lu Zhiang and I is complicated, and I don’t know how to explain it.

Tu Ran: Needless to say, although we are good friends, it does not prevent us from having our own privacy, do you understand?

To be honest, Tu Ran's words made Mu Wanjun feel much brighter.

No one is hiding anything, but rather being open and honest. It feels so good.

Mu Wanjun: Tu Tu, I will tell you when there is a chance and the right time in the future.

Tu Ran: Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone about it, including my husband Xie Nancheng.

Mu Wanjun: I was right about you. Go to bed early.

After hanging up the phone, Tu Ran went straight upstairs.

The underground garage is not that dark, but it is underground after all, so the atmosphere feels different from that on the ground.

Although the park was full of luxury cars, there were indeed not many people around at this time.

After Tu Ran parked the car and got out, he vaguely felt something behind him.

She turned around suddenly...

There was nothing but empty driveways.

However, her sensitive sense of smell could clearly detect a pungent smell of blood.

Tu Ran was not afraid at this time.

Instead, he calmly called the property management to report the matter and then got on the elevator.

Just as the elevator door closed, a dark shadow flashed past in front of the elevator.

The speed is strangely and astonishingly fast.

On the other hand, there were quite a few people at the dinner. Zhou Han and Xie Nancheng were collaborating on a small project, which could not withstand such a big event. The main reason was because of the issue of the future development of new energy in China, so many bigwigs gathered.

On the surface, the Zhou family is the host, but in reality, they are just a small fry.

More seniors with stronger financial resources also came, and some even came from Beijing.

Xie Nancheng put away his usual cynicism and became cautious.

"Nancheng, how is your father's health?"

"Uncle Xu, my father is fine."

"Where's your grandma?"

"Grandma is also very nice, thank you for your concern." This was the first time that Xie Nancheng was so respectful and polite.

As soon as this old man Xu appeared, all the rich people in Xiangcheng came to lick his boots.

A family like the Lin family simply cannot be brought to the stage. It is said that Lin Siyao tried her best to get an invitation letter, but was not allowed in the end. Later, she went to ask Zhou Han for help, but was rejected by Zhou Han.

Zhou Han is a very noble person at heart and looks down on fake socialites like Lin Siyao.

If their family had not always boasted about being the most beautiful person in Xiangcheng, it would have been impossible for them to trick the Xie family into having an engagement with their Lin family.

"We are all old, and now it's your turn as young people to rule the world." Old man Xu smiled.

"No, we are just playing small games. It was the era of our uncles and aunts when the heroes were competing for supremacy."

"It's rare to hear a nice word from you." Old man Xu looked at Xie Nancheng kindly.

Xie Nancheng felt embarrassed and turned his head back silently.

"I heard you're married."

"Ah? Has this matter spread to Beijing?" Xie Nancheng was surprised.

"Nothing can be hidden from us."

"Oh, we haven't even had a wedding yet. We just want to keep things simple."

"Just be happy after getting married and don't make a fool of yourself. A man who harms his wife will never gain anything." Old man Xu patted Xie Nancheng on the shoulder.

"Thank you, Uncle Xu, for your guidance. I will definitely keep it in mind."

Just then, other elders came over and Xie Nancheng withdrew first.

"Senior Nancheng."

Zhou Han was holding a glass of champagne, wearing a black one-shoulder dress, and standing beautifully in front of the boss.

It’s a pity that it couldn’t attract the boss’s attention.

"What's up?"

"I have a few ideas for jewelry we could develop together..."

"Today is a private gathering, no work will be discussed."

"If you're in a hurry, just call my assistant." Xie Nancheng refused directly.

"Senior Nancheng, do you really hate me?"

"Why do you always avoid me?"

Zhou Han bit his lip, looking aggrieved, with tears almost in his eyes.

Anyone who sees this little girl would probably feel pity for her.

Unfortunately, Xie Nancheng is a stubborn person and will stick with whoever he sets his eyes on.

"Are you just looking for something to talk about?"

"What do you mean by hating you or liking you? Do you think I'm familiar with you? Don't you think the topics you talked about are a bit profound? With my memory, I'm not familiar with someone like you at all, okay?"

"What are you accusing me of now?"

"Don't even mention you. Even if Zhou Yun were here, I wouldn't give her face either."

"Senior Nancheng, I really don't mean any harm."

“I even helped you….”

"If you want any reward, just tell me directly." Xie Nancheng was already impatient.

"I...I just want to be friends with Senior Nancheng, that's all. I really don't have any other ideas."

"I can't promise you that. I don't like making friends with the opposite sex, and my wife won't be happy either."

Xie Nancheng refused directly, then glanced at Zhou Han and said, "If you have any other requests, you can call Xu Xin."

After saying that, Xie Nancheng turned around and left, not wanting to stay even for a moment longer.

Zhou Han's face looked unhappy. He stood there with the champagne in his hand, feeling very unwilling.

She didn't understand why she was inferior to that country bumpkin.

At this time, Zhou Yun came over and asked, "Have you hit a wall?"

"What do you care?"

"Hanhan, listen to me, Xie Nancheng is not someone you can control."

"I heard that Lu Zhiang returned to China."

"And according to gossip, the Lu family is going to enter the new energy sector and is said to have received official support. I think you should focus on Lu Zhiang. He is really no worse than Xie Nancheng."

Zhou Yun knew that her sister didn't like playboys like Feng Yao, so she highly recommended Lu Zhiang.

After all, everyone in the circle knows that this person from the Lu family is also single and unmarried.

"I just want Xie Nancheng."

"You don't have to pour cold water on me. Just wait and see if I can succeed." After Zhou Han said that, he ignored his brother and left.

People are like this sometimes, the more they can't get something, the more they want it.

We don’t cherish things that come easily.

Xie Nancheng did not leave early because of several uncles from Beijing.

But I was actually very anxious and wanted to go home early to be with my wife.

Finally, after a few drinks, the driver came to pick me up.

On the way back, passing by the night market, Xie Nancheng saw someone still selling strawberries. He waved his hand and said, "Stop the car."

"What's wrong, Mr. Xie?"

"Go and buy all his strawberries for me."

"Pack it up and bring it upstairs for me."

Even though the boss was drunk, he didn't forget that his wife liked to eat strawberries, so he ordered the driver to go buy some immediately.
