Chapter 95

When He Yuanbai saw the photo clearly, his pupils shrank.

Is the place in the photo a small fishing village? Is she investigating something that happened seven years ago?

"Where did you get this photo?"

Lin Ran said calmly, "Someone sent it to me. Seven years ago, I stayed in the hospital for a long time. I wanted to know how my mother and the dean knew each other. Did she hide anything from me?"

He Yuanbai felt guilty when he saw her sparkling almond eyes. He tugged at the top button of his shirt and asked, "Lin Ran, do you really have to check?"

She nodded and said indifferently: "Yes."

He Yuanbai took a deep breath, hesitated again and again, and was about to speak when a lazy voice came: "What are you checking?"

Shen Zhuoyu sat on the railing of the veranda in the small garden, playing games while smiling and saying, "Hezi, what are you doing here?"

You are so brave that you dare to come to Chenyuan on a day like today.

He Yuanbai stood up and said with a smile: "I'll come and see Lin Ran."

Shen Zhuoyu glanced at him with a half-smile: "Then stay for dinner."

It depends on whether Shen Jinghan will get angry!

He Yuanbai saw his bright smile and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is it inconvenient today?"

Shen Zhuoyu said lazily: "It's not inconvenient at all. My brother and my father had a big fight this morning and smashed everything in the hall. Oh, it seems that my brother asked someone to report my father for corruption, bribery, and abuse of power."

He Yuanbai's expression changed, and he subconsciously looked at Lin Ran. Seeing her pale face and trembling body, he said, "Don't be afraid."

No wonder she was so anxious to investigate Lin Ruolan's affairs and even invited him to dinner for the first time. It seemed that she couldn't stay in the Shen family for another day and had to ask him for help.

Lin Ran shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I'm not afraid."

Chen Zhuoyu narrowed her peach blossom eyes and looked at this scene of deep affection in the lush little garden. She gritted her teeth slightly. Did He Zi really think that all the members of the Shen family were dead?

Is it his turn as an outsider to interfere in the Shen family's affairs?

Shen Zhuoyu raised his head and looked towards the study on the third floor. I wonder what my elder brother is thinking?

It was soon time for dinner.

Lin Ruolan was called downstairs by the housekeeper. When she saw He Yuanbai sitting with Lin Ran, she almost dropped her jaw.

When did Ranran become so familiar with the second young master of the He family?

Lin Ruolan's eyes sparkled, and she smiled attentively, "Butler, why didn't you inform me that the Second Young Master He is here? Hurry up and add a few more dishes. How can this be enough?"

He Yuanbai stood up and said with a smile, "You're welcome, Madam Third."

How can you be so rude? Lin Ruolan couldn't stop smiling. He Yuanbai had just rejected Chen Zhi's marriage proposal, so logically he wouldn't come to her house during this period. But now, not only did he come, but he also sat with Ranran without any hesitation. This was a huge signal.

If Lin Ran could marry into the He family, her status would rise as well, and she might even become the mistress of Chenyuan in the future.

"Brother, I'm just waiting for you to start eating." Shen Zhuoyu looked at Shen Jinghan who was going downstairs and spoke with a smile.

In the side hall, everyone fell silent in an instant, as if their throats were pinched.

Shen Jinghan didn't go out today. He was wearing home clothes, but his expression was unusually cold. He glanced at the restaurant coldly and nodded indifferently, "Is He Er here too? Let's have dinner now that everyone is here."

The meal was extremely strange.

No one spoke, even Chen Zhuoyu was too lazy to say polite words, and ate his meal in a casual manner.

Lin Ruolan wanted to speak, but looking at Shen Jinghan's face that was so cold that it could freeze someone to death, she couldn't utter a word and winked at Lin Ran the whole time.

"These shrimps are good for protein. You're too thin. Eat more shrimps." He Yuanbai picked up some shrimps for her. "Pork liver is good for blood. This is also good."

Lin Ran looked at the mountain of food in the bowl and said softly, "It's enough to eat. This is too much."

"Not much." He Yuanbai smiled.

"Ranran doesn't like eating offal." Chen Zhuoyu said suddenly, "He Zi, you are not interested in Lin Ran, are you? Will your father and brother agree?"

There was a moment of dead silence in the restaurant, and the atmosphere instantly froze.
