Tan Lin and Guo Yun couldn't help but look at Luo Zixin and asked, "What do you have in mind?"
Luo Zixin smiled lightly: "First of all, we have to find a way to alienate the relationship between Ran Xia and Zhan Ye, and make Zhan Ye hate Ran Xia. By this time, it doesn't matter how we deal with Ran Xia, right?"
"That's a good idea!" Tan Lin smiled, "But how do we create discord?"
Luo Zixin raised the corners of her lips: "I heard Shen Hao say before that four years ago, Ran Xia suddenly left without saying goodbye, and Master Zhan was very angry. If Ran Xia left without saying goodbye again, or was with another man, do you think Master Zhan would still tolerate it?"
…
The old house of the Zhan family.
On a luxurious marble dining table.
Zhan Feixuan and Yuan Qian sat side by side, while Ran Xia and Zhan Beiyao sat opposite them.
As for Mr. Zhan, he naturally sat in the seat of honor.
Grandpa Zhan's kind eyes fell on Zhan Beiyao and Ran Xia, and he said, "Ayao, Xia Xia, Grandpa is very happy to hear the news of your marriage. Here, Grandpa hopes that you two can live a good life and grow old together."
Ran Xia and Zhan Beiyao stood up quickly.
Ran Xia smiled and thanked him: "Thank you for your blessing, Grandpa."
Zhan Beiyao looked at Ran Xia beside him lovingly, and then said to Grandpa Zhan: "Grandpa, don't worry, Xia Xia and I will definitely live a good life."
"Very good!" Grandpa Zhan nodded with satisfaction: "Today, Grandpa has a small wish, I hope you can agree to it."
"What's your wish?" Zhan Beiyao asked.
"You two young couples, hurry up and have a baby. I hope you can give birth to a big fat boy within a year." Grandpa Zhan said seriously.
Ran Xia felt inexplicably embarrassed.
Is it appropriate for Mr. Zhan to talk about this kind of thing seriously on this occasion?
What's more, if you want to give birth to a child within a year, doesn't that mean you have to get pregnant within two months?
Yuan Qian quickly tried to smooth things over: "Dad, you can't rush having a child. Feixuan and I got pregnant with Ayao after more than a year of marriage."
"The situation was different when you got married." But Old Master Zhan frowned and said, "Besides, Ayao is already 26. Do we have to wait until we are 30 to have children?"
At this point, he directly ordered: "Tonight, the two of you stay in the old house and make a baby!"
Zhan Beiyao was about to refuse when Ran Xia agreed sweetly: "Okay, Grandpa, A Yao and I will stay in the old house tonight."
Zhan Beiyao looked at Ran Xia in surprise.
What is the little girl planning?
After the meal, Zhan Beiyao finally couldn't help but pull Ran Xia aside and said, "Little girl, why did you agree to let grandpa stay here overnight?"
He didn't like being restrained, so he wasn't too keen on staying here and being watched by his grandfather.
Ran Xia whispered, "Ayao, although we have found the root cause of the conflict between Grandpa and Master, Grandpa's heart knot is still not untied. So we can sneak into Grandpa's study tonight and see if we can find some clues. This will also help Grandpa and Master to untie their knot, don't you think?"
Zhan Beiyao couldn't help but reach out and ruffle her hair when he heard this: "Little girl, you really have good intentions."
…
night.
Zhan Beiyao and Ran Xia moved into the guest room as requested by Grandpa Zhan.
But the two of them did not sleep until late at night when they sneaked out of the room and came to the door of Mr. Zhan's study.
But before they could open the door, they heard a vicissitudes of life voice behind them: "Why are you two running here instead of sleeping in your room?"
Zhan Beiyao turned around and pretended to be calm and said, "Xia Xia and I came out to get some water. Grandpa, why aren't you asleep yet?"
"Do you really need to come to my study to drink water?" Old Master Zhan saw through their thoughts at a glance: "Tell me, what are you doing here?"
"Grandpa, don't be angry."
Ran Xia took the initiative to explain: "Actually, I wanted to go to your study to see if you have kept any items related to my master..."
"I told you, this matter is over!" Old Master Zhan interrupted Ran Xia unhappily, "Don't mention it again!"
"Grandpa, my master is sick!"
Ran Xia still said truthfully: "He is now in Jiangcheng People's Hospital, waiting for corneal treatment. I don't want Master to treat the disease with regrets, and I don't want you to misunderstand each other like this forever!"
"I've said before, there's no misunderstanding. I was indeed the one who killed Li Xinyu." Old Master Zhan's expression darkened. "Let's end this matter here. No one should mention it again!"
After saying this, Mr. Zhan turned around and wanted to leave.
Ran Xia called out from behind, "Grandpa, we've already figured out the whole story. Li Xinyu was trying to defraud my master of his money, and you discovered the truth. But you didn't want to hurt my master's pride, so you've been carrying the charge of murder, right?"
Mr. Zhan's body suddenly stiffened.
Ran Xia continued, "Grandpa, so many years have passed. In order to protect Master's self-esteem, you have been willing to bear all the charges yourself, making Master hate you so much. But have you ever thought that Master has the right to know, he has the right to know the truth. You think you are helping him, but maybe he doesn't want you to do this."
Old Master Zhan finally turned around and said, "This matter is not as simple as you think. Even if you tell Lucas now that Li Xinyu deceived him about his feelings and money, would it make sense? It will only make Lucas more miserable!"
"grandfather."
Zhan Beiyao said in a deep voice, "You always taught me that one must be upright, must be true to one's conscience, and must be upright! But why can't you do it?"
Mr. Zhan fell silent.
Zhan Beiyao continued, "Grandpa, you've been carrying this crime for over forty years. Isn't that enough? Do you want to carry it for the rest of your life?"
"Ayao, Xia Xia," Old Master Zhan said after a sigh, "I know you're all doing this for my own good, but I really don't want Lucas to see the cruel truth. After he turned twenty, he became an orphan, and since then, I haven't seen any joy on his face. But since Li Xinyu showed up, a smile has appeared on his face at a noticeable speed. I don't want him to lose this only hope."
When he said this, Mr. Zhan couldn't help but recall the scene of forty years ago.
That day, they made an appointment to go hunting together.
As a result, Lucas appeared in front of him holding a young girl.
He will never forget Lucas's happy expression at that time: "Zhanjun, let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend Li Xinyu."
