Chapter 688: Top Secret

By the time Tu Ran received the news, Bai Yi had already been investigated.

She was not very familiar with Bai Yi. They had worked together before, but she didn't trust him very much either.

She didn't understand why Bai Yi sent this at the last moment?

Did he see something? Or did he know something?

But Tu Ran has always been low-key and calm. He is not that curious and does not make a fuss about it.

The next day, I went to Dr. Sun’s clinic.

Boss Nie arrived as promised. After Xiao Jie escorted his master upstairs, he left happily.

Tu Ran took the needle as usual and went upstairs.

A stick of agarwood was lit on the second floor, and the scent was clear and distant.

Nie Xiu rarely drinks the tea from the clinic because it is too different from his private collection.

This guy has a very picky taste, and Tu Ran can't tolerate him. Later, he just prepared boiled water and let him drink it if he wants.

In the deep winter, people in the streets and alleys of Hong Kong are wearing down jackets.

Tu Ran is no exception.

I wear black long, medium and short styles, but the styles are still the same.

After taking off the down jacket, you can wear whatever you want inside.

Because there is heating indoors, girls can show off a little.

Tu Ran rarely wears a skirt when working because it is inconvenient, especially when squatting.

So she only wore a pair of black jeans, slimming down.

The white three-quarter sleeve top with lantern sleeves adds a bit of vitality than usual.

Her long hair was not left loose as usual, but was tied up with two small black clips.

Grab both sides and wait until the end, it has a bit of the taste of internet celebrities.

But this face has nothing to do with an internet celebrity. It is too recognizable, and it looks cold yet ethereal.

This was Nie Xiu’s first reaction.

Being cool is understandable, as many girls have a cool and aloof personality.

But being extraordinary is not something you can pretend to be; it requires a very strong aura.

"Xie Nancheng seems to be plotting something with Chen Yingli." Boss Nie suddenly said this.

Tu Ran raised his head in slight surprise, "Are you complaining?"

"Of course not, why would I complain?"

"I'm just reminding you that your husband went to meet another woman without your knowledge. Chen Yingli is also a great beauty. Don't you have any sense of crisis?" Nie Xiu looked at Tu Ran and spoke every word.

Tu Ran chuckled.

This made the boss's face even more gloomy.

"Tu Ran, be serious, I'm not joking."

"I'm not kidding you, hahaha."

Nie Xiu: ...

"You don't believe what I said?" Nie Xiu raised his eyebrows, feeling angry.

"Yes."

"Then why do you still have this attitude?"

"What else can I do? What attitude should I take?" Tu Ran asked back.

"You should ask your man why he did such a thing. Do you know how many dignitaries in Xiangcheng want to get close to Shen Yingli? She is not only a great beauty, she is also single. Most importantly, she has a huge power behind her."

"Miss Shen is indeed very capable, you are right." Tu Ran nodded.

"Then you don't have a sense of crisis?"

"If I lose to someone like Miss Shen, I will be convinced." Tu Ran said.

Nie Xiu: ...

"What a useless thing." Boss Nie was furious.

"Hey, I'm telling you, why are you so angry? This is my business, okay? Besides, I believe in Xie Nancheng and Miss Shen. Their meeting is not a romantic relationship, okay?"

"Don't overestimate yourself." Nie Xiu reminded.

"I didn't overestimate myself, I underestimated you... I didn't expect that someone like Mr. Nie would actually like to speak ill of others behind their backs."

Nie Xiu: ...

After making someone angry, Tu Ran felt very happy and had a sense of pleasure of revenge.

Who made this guy like to be sarcastic and bully people for no reason? Now he gets a taste of his own medicine.

Nie Xiu was angry and stopped talking.

But cooperate with the treatment obediently.

It was not until the end that he looked at Tu Ran and spoke.

“Someone recently gave me a plant.”

"I don't know if it's a medicinal herb or something else. It's definitely not recorded in the books."

“No one knows me.”

"If you are free anytime, go visit Shen Garden."

"Tell me what that is."

"I'm not letting you go for nothing. I'm giving you a commission." Boss Nie said awkwardly.

Tu Ran was quite interested. "If no one around you knows about it, then this thing must be very magical. But how can you be sure that I know it? Mr. Nie, you think too highly of me."

"I'm not sure either, so I came to ask."

"Then why didn't you bring it?"

"I can't take it with me. Even though it was given to me, it's top secret."

"I don't like being sidetracked either."

"I see. Okay, then I'll go show it to you when I'm free, but I'm a bit busy lately. A friend of ours is getting married, and I have to attend the wedding. Plus, I have cats and dogs at home that need to be taken care of."

"Then we'll talk about it later."

Tu Ran was not refusing. She really felt a little overwhelmed recently.

The main reason was Xie Nancheng's emotions. Although he concealed it very well on the surface, Tu Ran still felt the anxiety deep in his heart. That anxiety all came from the uncertainty of his mother's life or death.

Xie Nancheng gets news from the hospital every day and is aware of his mother's condition.

To be honest, I am not as optimistic as Yang Xin was at that time.

Yang Xin is just in a coma and vegetative state, but her data is stable.

Mrs. Xie's data is not stable, it fluctuates from time to time, and she has issued a critical illness notice many times.

And Xie Nancheng is stuck between his mother's life and death, which is the most heartbreaking thing.

But he is the boss of a group and often cannot show too much sadness.

Shengshi Group Headquarters.

"Mr. Xie, these require your signature. Please take a look."

Yang Xin brought two documents to sign. Xie Nancheng took them, read them carefully, and signed quickly after confirming that there was no problem.

"Anything else?"

"Ah, nothing, I just want to ask if you are free tonight. Your third uncle and I want to invite you to dinner at our house, you and Tu Ran." Yang Xin actually wanted to test whether Tu Ran had told Xie Nancheng about that matter.

But it’s not easy to ask directly.

"Not tonight. I have an engagement."

"As for my wife, you can go ask her."

"Forget it then. Let's make an appointment another day when you're both free." Yang Xin nodded, took the documents and left.

"Mr. Xie, there's a dinner party for the Jiuwu Chamber of Commerce tonight. There are several senior colleagues who have returned from Beijing. It's said to be a dance party, and you need to bring female companions. Please look over here..." After receiving a call from the Chamber of Commerce, Xu Xin hurried to report.

"Do you think my wife will go dancing with me?"

Xu Xin: Uh...

"Or who do you think you can find to replace my wife and be my dance partner?"

"That's not what I meant, Mr. Xie. I just wanted to tell you the theme of tonight."

"I'll go by myself, meet a few seniors and then go back. Will Lao Lu go?"

"Mr. Lu went there, and all the Lu family members were there." Xu Xin added.

When she heard that it was the Lu family who were going, Mu Wanjun definitely wouldn't go.

If Mu Wanjun were here too, he could trick his wife into accompanying him to the social event.

"Who else?"

"The Zhou family is also here."

"The Feng and Yin families are both here. Aren't they planning a marriage alliance soon? They're quite active."

"By the way, it seems the Guo family is coming too, but I'm not sure if it's Mr. Guo or Lin Chen."

"I understand. Go ahead."

"Mr. Xie..." Xu Xin hesitated to speak.

"explain."

"The old chairman seems to be here too. I saw the list." Xu Xin hesitated and really didn't dare to say it.
