Chapter 393 Can We Talk?

"Ranran, can we talk?"

Su Huairen spoke to Su Ranran with a pleading look on his face, keeping a very humble attitude.

Su Ranran knew from his attitude that if she didn't talk to him, it would probably be endless.

And no matter what grudges there were between him and Ding Yuzhen, he was still his biological father after all.

If you act too cruelly, others will inevitably gossip about you.

In the past, Su Ranran could have ignored these gossips.

But now her mother is going to marry Zhang Ren soon.

She could no longer act according to her own will as she did before.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, then nodded in agreement.

Su Huairen was excited when he saw that she was finally willing to talk to him.

But Zhang Xin was even more worried.

Su Ranran clapped her hands with amusement, and then said: "Xinxin, I want to say a few words to this comrade. You go to the restaurant first, and I will talk to you later."

Although Zhang Xin really wanted to stay and listen to what they said, since Su Ranran had already spoken, she had no choice but to agree.

The others left, but Shen He stayed with the two babies.

Su Ranran smiled at him soothingly.

"Take Zhaozhao and Yanyan there first. I'll come find you later."

Shen He glanced at Su Huairen, paused, then nodded and said, "Okay."

After they all went to the restaurant, Su Ranran and Su Huairen found a living room and sat down.

When he saw Su Ranran again, Su Huairen's eyes were filled with pride, excitement, and a longing that was pent up in his heart and could not be expressed.

She seemed to be the same small girl as yesterday, but in the blink of an eye she has turned into this unfamiliar look.

How could Su Huairen bear this?

"Ranran, how have you been doing these years?"

What he actually wanted to ask was, where have they been for the past twenty years?

Why couldn't he find the person even after searching Suzhou from top to bottom?

Looking at his determined expression, Su Ranran knew that there was no point in denying it any further.

However, Su Ranran felt unsatisfied if she were to accept him.

"Comrade Su, just say whatever you want to say. I have something else to do later."

Su Ranran said in a light voice.

Although he knew that this trip would not be smooth, Su Huairen still felt upset when he heard her cold voice.

"Ranran, I did do some things that I didn't do well for your mother, but after all, I am your father. Can't you just talk to me nicely?"

In fact, until now Su Huairen does not think he did anything wrong.

He felt that his only mistake was not being careful enough, which gave Tang Hongmian the opportunity to sow discord between Ding Yuzhen and his mother.

If it weren't for Tang Hongmian, he and Ding Yuzhen would never have reached the point of divorce.

But Su Ranran grew up by his side, so how could she be so unfamiliar with him now?

When Su Ranran was in high school, she asked Ding Yuzhen about the grievances of the Su family out of curiosity.

It's not like I'm completely clueless.

She did not comment on the grudges of the previous generation, but it was impossible for her to be completely free of resentment about the fact that in her previous life, that great-grandson would come to her house from time to time and point fingers at her and scold her.

"Comrade Su, if you just want to talk to me about the father-daughter relationship today, I think you may have found the wrong person."

There is no affection between them in the first place, and forcing her to act like a loving father and daughter is really putting it too difficult for her.

Hearing this, Su Huairen's face looked a little gloomy.

Knowing that she was impatient to hear this, he had no choice but to explain his purpose.

"Ranran, I came here to ask you to go back to Suzhou and meet your relatives. You haven't been back for 20 years, and your family has been missing you for many years."

He didn't tell her directly to trace her roots, but how could Su Ranran not hear it?

With a mocking smile on her face, she said playfully, "I wonder if your mother knows that Comrade Su is here?"

Hearing her unfamiliar name, Su Huairen felt bitter, but her question gave him a glimmer of hope.

"Your grandma knows, and she urged me to bring you home quickly." After saying that, as if afraid that she would not believe him, Su Huairen started to speak well of Tan Qiumei again, "She is waiting for you at home now!"

Although Tan Qiumei fainted after the fall, it was not serious.

Tan Qiumei refused to be hospitalized and asked to go home at noon.

Now I am indeed waiting at home for him to bring Su Ranran back home.

However, when Su Ranran heard this, she found it extremely ironic.

The mean face of Tan Qiumei in the previous life is still vivid in my mind.

I don't know how she found me, but when I caught her, I gave her a warning and told her not to dream of asking Su Huairen to pay for her treatment.

Whenever Su Ranran thought of their expressions, she found it extremely ironic.

And did this biological father of hers really know nothing about what the grandfather and grandson did?

Thinking of this, Su Ranran's eyes became even colder.

"Comrade Su, you may be mistaken. That is your home, not mine. I live with my mother. Wherever she is, that is my home."

Hearing this, Su Huairen became anxious.

"I'm your father, how can you say that? I can't deny that your mother did find a great guy, but is he really good to you? If he really cared about you, why would he let you and your wife stay in such a poor place in the northwest?"

This is what Su Huairen could not understand the most.

Su Ranran's man is a soldier, and Ding Yuzhen's partner is obviously also a senior general.

With his ability, wouldn't it be a piece of cake to transfer Shen He back to Beijing?

"Ranran, if you are willing to go home, I can use my connections to transfer you back to Beijing City, and you won't have to suffer in Xi Province anymore."

Hearing this, Su Ranran smiled.

"There are many people who have a harder life than me, including soldiers who reclaim wasteland in the frontiers, workers in oil fields and coal mines, and even farmers who work in the fields every day. Who doesn't have a harder life than me? If everyone is afraid of hardship, then who will build the country?"

This statement directly stands on the moral high ground. In this age that emphasizes dedication, anyone who is afraid of hardship and fatigue will be despised.

Su Huairen looked a little embarrassed.

Before he could open his mouth, Su Ranran continued, "I'm afraid the one your mother wants to recognize is not me, but the granddaughter who can be in the newspaper, right?"

This statement hit the nail on the head! Su Huairen's face immediately turned red.

But he couldn't say a word to refute it.

Although he was reluctant to admit it, Su Huairen knew in his heart that the reason why Tan Qiumei was so eager to recognize Su Ranran was because she was in the newspaper.

This is a matter of honor for the family.

As long as they recognized her, the status of their entire Su family in Su City would be greatly improved.

Although Su Ranran doesn't pay special attention to fame and fortune, it doesn't mean she knows nothing.

If there were no benefits, why would Tan Qiumei be so eager to take her back?

Thinking of this, her eyes became more distant and cold.

"My mother and I have survived the most difficult times, and now we no longer need help. If you really want our own good, please keep your distance and don't bother us."

These words made Su Huairen's face turn blue and red, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Su Ranran ignored him, got up and walked out.

But as soon as she opened the door, she saw Zhang Ren and her mother standing outside.

Su Ranran: …
