Xie Nancheng, the heir of a top-tier wealthy family, suddenly developed a hidden illness. His pre-arranged marriage partner was swapped, replaced by a young adopted daughter from the countryside to...
Chapter 946: Rare Temperance
Xie Nancheng was really stunned by the question and remained silent for a while.
Xie Nancheng: I don’t want to say anything bad about that medicine seller, but I don’t want him to take advantage of you. As long as he has his own motives and his purpose is not pure, it is not pure love. I know he is interested in you.
Tu Ran: What does Mr. Xie mean? Are you here to persuade me?
Xie Nancheng: No.
Tu Ran: You just said you knew Gu Xixing was interested in me, so what did you mean? Are you trying to persuade me to accept him?
Xie Nancheng: No.
Tu Ran: Are you advising me to stay away from him?
Xie Nancheng: Not really.
Tu Ran: It’s not the best, otherwise I would think your behavior is weird. After all, you were the one who took the initiative to ask for a divorce. How can you expect others to want someone you don’t want yourself?
Xie Nancheng: Of course, that’s not what you say.
Tu Ran: What did you say? Did I say something wrong? What position do you have to discuss the matter between me and Gu Xixing? Is he my ex-husband? Probably not. We haven't completed the divorce procedures yet. Are we just friends? It seems not. There seems to be something awkward between us.
Xie Nancheng: I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable.
Tu Ran: I do feel uncomfortable. Xie Nancheng, sometimes I don’t understand you.
Xie Nancheng continued to remain silent.
Tu Ran: You said you wanted to divorce me, and I understand. But at times, you act like you're really reluctant to let me go. Which one is the real you? This split between you drives me crazy.
Tu Ran did suffer a lot of grievances in the divorce.
I didn’t care about it before.
No matter whether it was at the funeral of old lady Xie, it was not served at the main table.
Or later, when Xie Nancheng deliberately created a scandal with a female college student, she ignored it, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.
I just failed to refine the medicine today, and I was feeling very upset.
But Xie Nancheng came to ask about these trivial matters again.
If he didn't like her anymore, why would he care whether Gu Xixing would pursue her or use her? Strange!
Tu Ran is rarely so irritable.
So after a lot of talk, Xie Nancheng was left speechless.
Xie Nancheng: Ranran, you are right. This is indeed my fault. I feel divided.
Tu Ran: So what?
Xie Nancheng: So what can I do to make it up to you? What do you want? I'll do my best to satisfy you.
Tu Ran: Haha.
From Tu Ran's two words "hehe", one could sense her sneer.
Xie Nancheng felt the pressure even through the screen.
Xie Nancheng: I really want to do something for you.
Tu Ran: I know, as for money, you have it all.
Xie Nancheng: Besides money, you can also ask for other things.
Tu Ran: What do you want to mention?
Xie Nancheng: For example, if you like Xiangcheng Medical University, I can let you be the chairman of the school, or simply open a private university for you.
Tu Ran: Do you think I like it?
Xie Nancheng: I don’t know, I heard that you are going to the school anniversary party.
Tu Ran: So what?
Xie Nancheng: Not really.
Tu Ran: Since you want to know, I'll tell you so you don't start making wild assumptions. Gu Xixing did invite me, but the reason I decided to go to the school wasn't because of him. It was Principal Wu who came to me. He's been very kind to me, and since he asked, there was no reason for me to refuse. He made an exception and accepted me, despite the pressure. I haven't done anything for the school, so I just accepted it.
Xie Nancheng: So that’s how it is.
Tu Ran: Speaking of college, I have to thank my grandmother. It was my grandmother who took me to school.
Tu Ran felt a little sad when mentioning the old lady of the Xie family.
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy...
Xie Nancheng also felt a little uncomfortable.
Xie Nancheng: So that’s how it is. I was meddling in your business. Feel free to contact me if you need anything. I can also sponsor awards for your school if necessary.
Tu Ran: Who are you sponsoring? Me? Or Han Chuxi?
This sentence immediately left Xie Nancheng speechless.
He had forgotten that Han Chuxi also studied at this university.
Of course he wouldn't do it for Han Chuxi, since he clearly had nothing to do with her.
But because they had deliberately thrown out smoke bombs before, it looked somewhat similar from the outside.
Many people believed that Xie Nancheng insisted on getting a divorce just for the female college student, and he actually deceived quite a few people.
As for whether Tu Ran believed it or not, no one asked, and no one dared to ask.
Tu Ran's direct question today left Xie Nancheng speechless.
He was indeed acting with Han Chuxi just to force Tu Ran to divorce.
But these are all my own decisions, and it’s hard to explain them now.
Xie Nancheng: Of course...
Tu Ran: I’m still very busy here, so I won’t chat with you for long.
Tu Ran was obviously unwilling to continue the conversation.
Xie Nancheng felt a little lost, but he didn't know what to do.
I didn't dare to coax her, nor did I dare to go to her rashly.
I was also thinking of going to Muyunzhai again in a couple of days under the pretext of visiting the kitten.
In the afternoon, Bai Yi came.
Bai Yi was recently suspended from work. After making a fuss a few times to no avail, he became very obedient.
Not having to work or lead a team is actually very relaxing.
I stay at home playing games, reading novels, and living the life of a otaku.
Of course, this is all superficial.
Secretly, he was observing the movements in the sanatorium where Lu Xuan'er was.
At the same time, he also found someone to continue investigating the matter of Guo's father and daughter.
Bai Yi firmly believes that the Guo family father and daughter are also supernatural events.
But the police department has already made a final decision, saying that both father and daughter committed suicide.
The police will only act based on evidence, so unnecessary trouble will naturally not arise.
Bai Yi actually looks very good without his police uniform.
He drove a black Audi and wore a dark blue casual cotton jacket.
Appeared in Muyunzhai.
"Officer Bai, you're here." Wei Ming greeted.
"Well, where's your boss?"
"My boss seems to be feeding the cat. You can go in and take a look." Wei Ming pointed inside.
Bai Yi smiled and walked in familiarly.
Sure enough, when Bai Yi came in, he saw Tu Ran feeding two kittens with cat snacks.
Although Lihua came from Muyunzhai later, she was more familiar with Tu Ran.
So he was very confident and really treated it as his own home, and even took the initiative to bully New Year's Eve.
New Year's Eve is a blue cat. It is not so irritable, but much gentler and slower, like a punching bag.
Tu Ran was teaching them a lesson at this moment, "You two, don't fight. We are all family, get along well. Lihua, you weren't so fierce in the old house before. Why are you so domineering now that you have a playmate? You have to be a good cat and be obedient. Do you understand?"
"Lin Chen was arrested again." Bai Yi walked in and said the first sentence.
"You're here?" Tu Ran was not surprised to see Bai Yi.
Knowing that he was suspended, he would not sit idle.
"Well, I got something and want to show it to you." After saying that, Bai Yi took out his mobile phone mysteriously.
"What is that?" Tu Ran was stunned.
"The three shareholders of the Guo Group who died."
"The video of last night's night fishing in Yannan Lake, from a passerby's perspective, first-hand information, which has not been submitted." Bai Yi also has great powers.
"I want you to see this video. Even though it's only five or six seconds long, I think it's very eerie."
After saying that, Bai Yi turned on his phone, played the video, and showed it to Tu Ran.
