Chapter 852: Hearsay

Tu Ran didn't reply.

After a while, Bai Yi sent another WeChat message.

Bai Yi: There have been three more murders in this city recently. They have not been exposed by the media, but the ways of death are very strange. I suspect that some unclean and vicious evil creature has come to Xiangcheng.

Bai Yi: But I am a policeman, you know, I can’t tell these things to others.

Bai Yi: I still hope you can consider it.

Tu Ran finally replied: Okay, let me think about it.

Tu Ran had clearly rejected this matter before.

There's nothing to talk about.

Now her attitude has indeed softened.

But it won't be an immediate deal.

Bai Yi knows his limits and won't cross the line.

Of course, Tu Ran was grateful to Bai Yi for helping him out at his grandmother's funeral that day.

Although she is rather cold-hearted, she is not completely heartless.

On the other side, the Xie family’s old house.

Mrs. Xie took the initiative to arrange a meal for her family.

They said that they were afraid that after the old lady died, their relationship would become distant, so they wanted to be closer.

In fact, he wanted to take the opportunity to create opportunities for Zhou Han and his son.

Allow Zhou Han to integrate into the Xie family invisibly.

So, in addition to the Xie family, Zhou Han will also be at the dinner tonight.

The so-called Xie family consists of only Xie Huaiyu, Mrs. Xie, Xie Nancheng, and Xie Huaishan's family of three.

Zhou Han was indeed thoughtful and prepared a gift for everyone.

It is her new product, a platinum bracelet.

Available in both men's and women's styles.

Whether people wear it or not is one thing, but giving something as a gift always makes people happy.

Zhou Han even brought a gift for Xie Jiatong.

This is a gold bracelet specially made for children, and the workmanship is indeed very exquisite.

"Tongtong, this is a gift from me to you, do you like it?"

"I have the bracelet. My sister-in-law gave it to me before." Xie Jiatong's words made Zhou Han stand there in embarrassment.

The sister-in-law Xie Jiatong was referring to was Tu Ran.

This was not enough, Xie Jiatong said again, "Brother Nancheng, there are so many people eating, why is my sister-in-law not here?"

"I miss my sister-in-law so much."

Xie Jiatong is holding the little white cat Lihua in her arms.

Every time they were at the old house, Tu Ran would accompany her to play with the kitten, and he was very patient.

Now, after the funeral, the child hasn't seen Tu Ran again, and he just feels strange.

Yang Xin hurriedly explained, "Tongtong is still young. Miss Zhou, please forgive me for any offense I may have said. We haven't told her about what's happening in Nancheng, and she may not understand."

Yang Xin was involved in a divorce.

Zhou Han smiled slightly, "Of course not, why would I mind? Tongtong is very cute, as beautiful as you, Auntie San."

This phrase "Third Aunt" sounded familiar to Yang Xin, so she didn't dare to say anything more and just smiled awkwardly.

He even secretly glanced at Xie Nancheng.

He lowered his head to look at his phone, his mind not on their conversation at all.

Mrs. Xie also tried to smooth things over. "Although Mom is gone, we are still a family. A harmonious family brings prosperity. I hope all of us will be better and better."

"Nancheng, why don't you say something?" Mrs. Xie reminded her son in time.

Xie Nancheng was a little impatient and put down his phone.

He looked around and said, "Nothing much to say. I've been quite tired lately. I'm done eating now. You guys take your time."

Then, Xie Nancheng prepared to get up.

"Nancheng, what's going on with that female college student?" Mrs. Xie asked bluntly, feeling a little embarrassed.

"nothing."

"Don't do anything stupid. You've finally gotten rid of Sun Wukong, so why don't you marry another monkey?"

The implication is that Tu Ran is not easy to deal with either.

Xie Nancheng didn't like to hear this.

He directly retorted, “Mom, I’m almost thirty. No matter who I choose, you shouldn’t interfere.”

"I'm saying this for your own good."

"I don't need you to do good for me, just take good care of yourself."

"Have the divorce procedures been completed?" Mrs. Xie asked deliberately.

"not yet."

"I heard that the woman disagreed?" Mrs. Xie did get some information, and in fact, she forced the legal team of Shengshi Group to answer.

Everyone knows that this is the boss's biological mother, and no one dares to provoke her.

"What do you want to say?" Xie Nancheng's face turned cold and he glanced sideways at his mother.

"I just want to say that this woman is incredibly ambitious. Isn't she refusing a divorce simply because the money isn't enough? She's only been married for a year and hasn't even had a child yet, yet she's still asking for so much. How shameless!"

"Anyone can scold her, but you can't." Xie Nancheng was annoyed.

"Why can't I curse when I say that?"

Xie Nancheng was so angry that he almost blurted out, "Because Ranran saved your life."

But this occasion is really not suitable because there are too many people.

Zhou Han is not someone who can be trusted either.

He didn't want anyone to know that Tu Ran had extraordinary abilities, which was a very dangerous thing.

Xie Nancheng opened his mouth, but changed his words and said, "Because she has been in the Xie family for a year, I think she is worthy of everyone, including you. You shouldn't say that to her."

"Son, you're just stupid enough to let others take advantage of you, aren't you?"

"You have something better in front of you, but you don't cherish it. You insist on having these junks. You are going to make me mad to death."

Zhou Han immediately spoke up to smooth things over, "Godmother, stop talking."

"Brother Nancheng has indeed had a lot going on lately."

"The president of Yuanhang Group has been targeting Brother Nancheng."

"My brother said that he's difficult to deal with because we don't know his background."

"Let's not talk about these annoying things."

Xie Nancheng didn't say anything, just stood up and walked out.

Mrs. Xie took the opportunity to push Zhou Han.

"Hanhan, why are you still standing there?"

"Go and see Nancheng off."

Mrs. Xie certainly wanted the two of them to talk alone.

Isn’t this the reason why Zhou Han has been working so hard for the Xie family recently?

Zhou Han didn't care about shame and quickly chased after him.

Today, Xiangcheng is still covered with ice and snow.

Zhou Han was wearing a thin dress and shivered as soon as she went out.

Xie Nancheng strode quickly to the front of his luxury car.

"Brother Nancheng." she shouted.

Xie Nancheng didn't even raise his head. "Speak."

"Brother Nancheng, my godmother hasn't been sleeping well lately. Grandma passed away, and she's a little scared, so I've been here with her for a long time. She's also under a lot of mental pressure, so please don't be angry if she said something wrong."

"My own mother, how can you describe her?" Xie Nancheng frowned.

"Brother Nancheng, I actually heard a rumor about your ex-wife."

"But I don't know if this is true. I dare not say."

"If you don't dare to speak, then shut up." Xie Nancheng didn't tolerate it either.

Zhou Han was anxious and said deliberately aggrievedly, "But if I don't tell you, you will be kept in the dark and treated as a fool. I don't want to see that either."

"I'd better tell you."

"Although it's a bit outrageous, the person who gave me the information is a powerful person."

"I don't think he would lie or make up rumors."

"I'm going to reveal this to you today. Whether it's true or not, you can decide for yourself."

"I heard from that person that Tu Ran already has a new love."

"She's hooking up with a mysterious man in Shenyuan, so I can't understand why she's still pestering you and refusing to divorce you."

When the person from Chen Yuan was mentioned, Xie Nancheng's heart sank and his face turned completely dark.
