Chapter 69: Crow's Mouth
After waiting for a while, there was still no response, but there was a slight and even breathing sound in the air.
Xie Nancheng took a closer look and saw that he had fallen asleep.
How tired must he be that he fell asleep within two minutes of getting into bed?
But after thinking about it carefully, Tu Ran didn't need to pretend to be asleep.
She was just a little girl and had almost experienced a thrilling kidnapping last night. She must be scared.
So I took a shower and went to sleep.
In fact, Xie Nancheng has never been a soft-hearted person.
He couldn't feel any pity for women when he heard that his third aunt had someone kidnap Tu Ran.
He was also indifferent, but later changed his mind.
He comforted himself that he was grateful to her because she saved his eyes and cured his grandmother's chronic illness.
At this time, Xie Nancheng didn't know that the love for the woman in front of him had quietly begun to sprout in his heart.

"It's over, is it possible that we've been exposed?"
"What's wrong, wife?"
"Those people said that the person disappeared inexplicably and was not caught."
"Impossible?" Xie Huaishan was also stunned.
Then Yang Xin told Xie Huaishan all the feedback from those people.
Xie Huaishan was also a little dumbfounded after hearing this, "How is this possible? Aren't the people you found professional?"
"No, those guys are desperate and have never failed."
Yang Xin knew that those people were professional kidnappers, so she was worried that she would get into trouble.
But I heard that Xie Nancheng's country bumpkin wife had disappeared without a trace.
She became even more uneasy because she was afraid that Xie Nancheng would find out and rescue the person.
"Hubby, could it be that Xie Nancheng knows about this?"
"No, if Xie Nancheng wanted to save someone, he wouldn't use such a weird method."
"It's very strange. The drug was a new type, irresistible to everyone, comparable to anesthetic. But the woman mysteriously disappeared, and there was no surveillance back then, so we have no idea what happened. Now the kidnappers are scared to death, thinking some supernatural incident has occurred."
Xie Huaishan was also a little flustered, "Wife, it's okay, listen to me."
"If something really happened to that girl, the old mansion would have called us a long time ago."
"The old lady didn't even call, and the old house was extremely quiet, which means the girl is fine."
"But how did she escape the drug? And how did she escape the kidnappers' eyes?" The more Yang Xin thought about it, the more scared she became.
"Is this... maybe it's because she has a special physique that's resistant to anesthetics? Is she resistant to drugs?"
"this……."
No matter how the couple guessed, they felt something was wrong, but they were really nervous and didn't dare tell Xie Huailan.
With Xie Huailan's strong temper, she would probably scold them again and call them cowards.
The couple thought that they would find out after visiting the old house tomorrow.
The next day, clear
Xie Nancheng did not mention Professor Li again, and the young couple went downstairs to have breakfast.
It was quite lively, except for the main room.
Xie Huailan's family and Xie Huaishan's family all came.
Xie Guangyao hadn't seen his sister for a long time, but the two children were having fun.
"What's that smell in this room? It's terrible."
As soon as Xie Huailan entered the room, she started to show disgust and asked with her nose pinched.
"Ah, Miss Xie Huai, this is the antiviral Chinese medicine that the young lady brewed last night. I made it into a spray and sprayed it in every corner. I heard that the virus is very serious recently."
"This is all just a tax on IQ, and you believe it?"
Pinggu's face changed, but she didn't dare to say anything. She lowered her head and continued to mop the floor without saying a word.
She knew that Xie Huailan always spoke in a sarcastic and harsh manner.
And the moment Xie Huaishan and Yang Xin saw Tu Ran.
His eyes looked a little guilty, but he quickly shifted elsewhere.
However, Tu Ran could see all these small details clearly.
To be honest, no matter whether it was Xie Huaishan or Xie Huailan who did it, she didn't intend to pursue the matter.
She has always been a Buddhist and cautious person, so she just needs to be careful.
There is no need to cause trouble, after all, they are all the old lady's closest relatives.
Tu Ran felt that since her grandfather passed away, the old lady of the Xie family was the second person who was truly kind to her.
She still cares about this friendship in her heart.
"Cough cough cough."
During this period, Xie Jiatong coughed several times.
But the adults didn't pay attention and just kept talking to themselves.
"Are you not feeling well, Tongtong?" Although Xie Nancheng hated his uncle and his wife, he still had feelings for the child.
"Brother Nancheng, I feel a little uncomfortable."
"Where does it hurt?"
"My throat hurts a little." Xie Jiatong was only five or six years old, and was very picky about food. She never had a proper meal.
"My head hurts a bit too."
"Really?" Xie Nancheng was stunned and didn't know how to respond.
Tu Ran, who was not far away, mentioned, "Cough, sore throat, headache, these are somewhat similar to the symptoms of the recent flu virus."
"Are you a jinx?" Aunt San glared at Tu Ran fiercely.
"Yes, Nancheng's wife, aren't you cursing my daughter? This virus is very evil. My daughter is fine and it is impossible for her to be infected." Xie Huaishan was also angry.
"I'm just suspicious, just giving you a reminder."
"It's up to you whether you want to listen or not. I see her face is a little red, she might have a fever."
"Impossible, what are you talking about?"
"My daughter has been taking health supplements to boost her immunity recently. How could she have a fever?" Aunt San retorted.
"You are just playing with our Guangyao and having fun. Nancheng's wife, you are making a fuss. If you learn some Chinese medicine, everyone will look like a patient to you." This was said by Zhao Hui.
After Zhao Hui made a mistake last time, he thought about it and realized that it was probably Xie Nancheng who was plotting against him.
So he took out all his anger towards Xie Nancheng on his newlywed wife.
"Of course, I mean well. Do you really need to react so strongly?"
Tu Ran's mother-in-law, Mrs. Xie, was not happy with this.
Although she didn't particularly like her daughter-in-law, she still felt unhappy when she saw her being bullied by outsiders.
"That's not right, sister-in-law. You're being too protective of me."
"Tongtong coughed a few times, and she said it was a virus and she had a fever. It was really scary."
"Is this what our family members are supposed to do?"
"As the daughter-in-law of Nancheng, shouldn't you abide by the rules and be careful with your words and actions?" Xie Huailan seized the opportunity to confront him.
"That's enough. Can you please have a good meal?"
The old lady was annoyed by the noise, so she just shouted and everyone became quiet.
"Tongtong, come here."
After Tu Ran's reminder, the old lady of the Xie family observed her little granddaughter Xie Jiatong.
I found that the child's face was indeed getting redder and redder, and he seemed to be in a bad state.
"Let's go to grandma's place." Aunt San coaxed her daughter.
Xie Jiatong stood up slowly and walked slowly to the old lady.
The old lady placed her frowning hand on Xie Jiatong's forehead, and her expression suddenly changed.
"Oh my god, this is hot, I really have a fever."
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, Xie Jiatong closed her eyes and fainted on the ground with a thud.
At that time, the Xie family was in chaos. Aunt San rushed over, picked up the child and burst into tears.
"Tongtong, what's wrong with you? Don't scare your mother."
"Ranran, can you take a look at Tongtong? Take her pulse? She was fine, why did she faint all of a sudden?" The old lady of the Xie family suddenly thought of her granddaughter-in-law who knew Chinese medicine.
At this time, Xie Nancheng glanced at Tu Ran beside him. She was still calmly drinking millet porridge with her head down.
