Ginger juice can dispel cold. Apparently, the old housekeeper noticed last night that Qingqing had a little nasal sound due to a cold, so she made this dessert early in the morning.
Qingqing is now much more energetic, and her nasal sound has subsided a lot. It should take about one more day for her to recover completely.
"Eat quickly, brother. Qingqing saved this for you."
The young man pulled Gu Lan to eat the dessert, and did not forget to take credit for himself.
"Really? Qingqing is so good."
Gu Lan deliberately acted exaggerated to praise Qingqing, making the young man shyly cover his face and laugh.
Before he finished a bowl of dessert, two uninvited guests came.
Fu Heng and Bai Qiyu.
Gu Lan knew that he couldn't hide the news that he was taking Qingqing out of the hospital, but he didn't expect them to come to his house so soon. Were
they unwilling to spend a little parent-child time with the siblings?
Not only did Gu Lan not put down his spoon, he picked up the bowl and ate everything in it in a few bites, then he slightly raised his peach blossom eyes that looked very similar to Qingqing's.
"What are you two doing here at my house so early in the morning?"
"You suddenly took Qingqing out of the hospital last night without informing us?" Bai Qiyu, with a slightly gloomy face, took the lead in attacking.
He was very imposing, and the loose casual clothes he wore were so tight on him that they looked like a tights. His muscles bulged, like a cheetah that had been ready to strike, waiting for an opportunity to give the enemy a fatal blow.
Being targeted by such a person, even Gu Lan couldn't help but slightly tighten his back and subconsciously entered a state of alert.
"What? You guys are justified for breaking into my house so early in the morning?" He retorted mercilessly.
Gu Lan found that he hated these two men more and more, even though one was his brother-in-law and the other was his sister's suitor.
But it was precisely because of this that he hated them even more.
Thinking of some new things he had found recently, his eyes darkened slightly, and he suddenly turned around and focused on Fu Heng.
"I heard that your lover has returned? He also slandered my sister at the banquet and publicized the true love between you two."
Fu Heng frowned slightly and said coldly: "I don't have a lover."
"Hehe..." Obviously Gu Lan didn't believe it.
He also learned the news from his friends recently that an old acquaintance came to the circle these two days.
This person is not only the goddess of countless people in the circle, but also recognized by the circle as Fu Heng's lover.
I heard that when his sister was crazy about Fu Heng
, she used a lot of means to force the lover away before she succeeded in getting rid of him.
As a result, now his sister's two children are adults, and this old woman wants to come back. What is she trying to do?
The jackal smells the fragrance of meat-ready to move?
Fu Heng had not given Gu Lan a satisfactory explanation for the divorce agreement incident, and now he has a little lover. It would be strange if he could like him.
If Qingqing was not still young, he would have encouraged her sister to divorce quickly, take the money and leave. It's
unbearable to watch.
There are troubles every day.
And the fact that his sister was tortured by Fu Heng's crazy admirer for so many years is another mess.
Touching Qingqing's confused face, Gu Lan lowered his eyes and stopped thinking, and suddenly said: "If... I mean if, my sister can change back one day, what will you do?"
"It's been half a year." Fu Heng reminded in a low voice.
It has been half a year, and nothing has happened to Qingqing, so it is very likely that she has never...
"Recovered once."
Fu Heng's pupils shrank, and he turned his head and glared at Bai Qiyu.
Is this what he meant?
Bai Qiyu looked at Fu Heng without hesitation, ignoring Gu Lan's attempt to stop him from telling the secret, and said bluntly: "Qingqing turned back once, in the ward, when she suddenly had a high fever."
"High fever?" Fu Heng had no idea about this.
It turned out that Qingqing's cold had turned into a high fever.
At that time, her body suddenly changed, so that Bai Qiyu and Gu Lan did not dare to go to the doctor. They could only watch her briefly recover to her adult appearance and then shrink back again.
It was like watching a science fiction movie.
"What did you say to him?" Gu Lan stood up suddenly, a little annoyed.
"What are you still making a fuss about?"
Bai Qiyu's hawk-like terrifying gaze was like a sharp arrow, instantly piercing Gu Lan's heart and seeing through all his thoughts.
"Gu Lan, you are no longer the child who would only hide behind your sister and cry. No one can tolerate your willful behavior anymore. Qingqing is in danger now. We can't fight among ourselves anymore, otherwise our enemies will just laugh at us."
After a pause, he said in a hoarse voice: "I got the news that the man... is out of prison."
His pupils shrank suddenly, and Gu Lan raised his head quickly, his expression changed drastically: "Who... are you talking about?"
"You know who it is."
Of course he knew, otherwise he wouldn't be so incredulous, or... terrified.
Swallowing his saliva, Gu
Lan tried his best to suppress his shaking hands, but his panic was exposed when he spoke: "I remember that he still has one year left in his sentence, how could he be released so soon?"
Unconsciously reaching for his pocket, Bai Qiyu realized that he had quit smoking. He naturally put his hand down, maintaining an unprecedented calmness.
"In fact, as early as eight years ago, that person had already been released from prison. Because of his good performance during his sentence, he was released early."
"Just kidding." Pulling the corners of his lips stiffly, Gu Lan wanted to show a sarcastic smile, but failed.
He sat paralyzed on the chair, holding the handle tightly with both hands: "How could such a demon...how could he be released early?"
Several dark pictures flashed before his eyes.
Deserted alleys...
broken bodies...
and...
The blinding red slowly...slowly spread on the ground.
Then his eyes and mouth were covered tightly, and he was put into a closed environment, with the whisper of the devil in his ears.
"Don't let me find you...don't come out, or I will kill you..."
Fu Heng listened silently to the two people lying in front of him. He didn't know what they were talking about, but he could extract a lot of information from it.
Someone who was a great threat to Qingqing and Gu Lan was released from prison. He was a vicious criminal. Even Gu Lan was deeply afraid of this person.
"Is all this related to him?"
Fu Heng was referring to those malicious targets against Gu Qingqing and the threatening recording.
He still remembered that when Qingqing heard the distorted threatening recording, the fear she showed was very similar to Gu Lan's now.
But when Gu Lan also heard the threatening recording, he didn't react at all.
"Not necessarily."
Bai Qiyu shook his head, but did not completely deny Fu Heng's guess.
"The clues we found are very fragmentary, but after integrating them all, we will find that there is more than one group of people targeting Qingqing. These people seem to have no connection, but sometimes there are amazing coincidences, so it is impossible to really determine whether there are many real culprits or just one from the beginning to the end."
"Qingqing's current situation is very dangerous."
Fu Heng calmly supplemented what Bai Qiyu didn't say: "So, we can't be passive and take the beating anymore."
Raising his hand to put it around Fu Heng's shoulders, Bai Qiyu showed a wanton smile: "Smart, brother, have you ever played a game? Generally, only after all the small monsters in front are cleared, the real big BOSS will appear."
"Before that, we need bait." Bai Qiyu and Fu Heng both looked at Gu Lan.
Gu Lan raised his eyes, and his handsome face, which was very similar to Qingqing, showed the same confusion as Qingqing.
It seemed that he could not understand what Fu Heng and Bai Qiyu, the rivals in love, were discussing.
***
Recently, the entire upper class circle of N City was set off by a piece of gossip.
After Chairman Fu’s mistress returned to China, the chairman’s wife, who was rumored to have been traveling abroad for a long time, finally came back.
Many people privately speculated that Gu Qingqing must have heard the news and couldn’t sit still, so she hurried back. Some people
said it might be a coincidence, but they were quickly retorted that there are not so many coincidences in the world.
Speaking of Chairman Fu’s mistress, her identity is actually not very complicated.
Her name is Cheng Xiaoxiao. She comes from an ordinary family. With excellent academic performance, she was admitted to the university that Fu Heng attended. Because of her beautiful appearance and gentle personality, she was soon named the school belle and was considered the most popular person on campus at that time.
Cheng Xiaoxiao and Fu Heng met at a social gathering. At that time, both of them were dragged there by their friends.
The crowd didn't know how Fu Heng felt about Cheng Xiaoxiao at that time, but Cheng Xiaoxiao must have had a good impression of Fu Heng.
Anyway, since this time, Cheng Xiaoxiao has been looking for various excuses to get close to Fu Heng. She didn't express her feelings directly, but only treated him as a friend. When they were together, they mostly talked about academics.
Over time, they became an inseparable couple in everyone's eyes.
Originally, the crowd thought that Cheng Xiaoxiao could easily win Fu Heng, the flower of the mountain, but who knew that Gu Qingqing would show up halfway.
As soon as Gu Qingqing entered the school gate, she announced in a high-profile manner that she wanted to pursue Fu Heng. The girl was passionate and soon took action.
Not only did she use Fu Heng's elevator to go to and from class every day, but she also always found excuses to get close to him.
It seems that she used similar methods to Cheng Xiaoxiao, but the difference is that Gu Qingqing made her feelings clear from the beginning.
Her love is straightforward and she never hides it.
And she has a huge advantage. The Gu family is as wealthy as the Fu family.
Marrying Cheng Xiaoxiao will not give Fu Heng any help, but marrying Gu Qingqing will allow him to get 30% of Gu's shares without any effort.
Obviously, many people knew about the will of old lady Gu.
What does 30% of Gu's shares mean?
That's hundreds of billions of assets!
So, is there anyone who can make the wrong choice for this kind of multiple-choice question? The union
of Fu Heng and Gu Qingqing
is a matter of course in the eyes of everyone in the upper class, and Cheng Xiaoxiao's departure after the failure?
What's the point of paying attention to this?
As a result, after more than 20 years, this woman who claims to be Fu Heng's mistress appears again. What does she want to do? Is she coming back to pry into someone else's corner
after she is old and ugly? Many noble ladies secretly gritted their teeth and absolutely refused to admit that they were jealous of the other's beautiful face that looked like frozen in time.
A woman in her forties looks like she is in her twenties. Isn't she a demon?
Inside the An family villa.
Guests gather, many men and women in gorgeous dresses, standing in the bright banquet hall, toasting and chatting leisurely.
Today is the day when the An family's biological daughter officially returns.
Don't doubt it. The An family has found their biological daughter for so many years, but it is only now that they think of holding a banquet for her and introducing her to everyone.
Among the guests who come to the An family, a small number come because of the An family's reputation, and most of them come just to see the excitement.
The farce of the real and fake daughter of the An family has been going on for so many years. Many people have witnessed how they treated the fake daughter as a treasure and the real daughter as grass. Now they want to see the sequel.
"Hasn't the An family been making trouble for many years? We don't know what's going on in their family, why do we have to come all the way to see the scene?" Shanshan questioned her friend who had dragged her here.
"You don't know that."
Shanshan's friend smiled mysteriously, came over and whispered gossip to her: "Didn't you hear that the real daughter of the An family was missing for a long time? At that time, the eldest master of the An family was going crazy looking for his sister, and he almost had a fight with the family because of this."
"I know that." Shanshan said that she was well-informed: "It's not too bad for An Ran to have such a clear-headed brother."
"Not only is it not too bad, do you know what An Ran's identity was before she returned to the An family?" The friend widened her eyes exaggeratedly.
"What's her status? She's just an orphan." This is the stereotype that Shanshan and her sisters have always had about the real daughter of the An family.
It's not that they look down on An Ran, but that's the fact in their cognition. Now they are just telling the truth without any malice.
"So I said you guys are not good at gossiping, but you still don't believe it."
The friend shook her head, which attracted the curiosity of a girl in a pink dress beside her: "What is An Ran's status? Tell me quickly, I'm so anxious."
There are only so many people in the upper class circle in the city. She and Shanshan are naturally acquainted, but they can only be considered nodding acquaintances, not very familiar.
Now she is also very annoyed by the gossip, so she can't help but interrupt.
Fortunately, the friend has no opinion on the pink skirt girl who eavesdropped, and is very happy that there are more people to listen to her gossip.
She waved her hand, and Shanshan and the girl in pink skirt immediately came over. She only heard her friend whisper, "I heard my dad accidentally let it slip yesterday that An Ran disappeared for half a year because she went abroad to study, and she didn't use a penny from the An family."
"If she didn't use the An family's money, then where did she get the money? Could it be..."
"Don't think too much. No matter how much the An family dislikes their biological daughter, they will not allow her to do such a shameful thing."
"Then where did the money come from?"
"Where else can it come from? An Ran's adoptive mother gave it to her."
"It seems that An Ran's adoptive mother is quite rich."
"Do you know who her adoptive mother is?"
"Don't keep us in suspense, tell us!"
Shanshan urged impatiently. Her friend smiled and announced the answer with satisfaction: "It's Mrs. Fu. Yes, the one you are thinking of."
"!" There were sounds of people sucking in a breath of cool air, and there were more than three of them.
Looking around, the friend who spread the gossip realized that there were so many eavesdroppers hiding around.
Mrs. Fu, whose real name is Gu Qingqing, is the wife of the chairman of the Fu Group, the eldest daughter of the Gu Group, the mother of the president of Fu Entertainment Media, the mother of the president of Tianhao Studio...
No matter which identity it is, it would make people tremble when it is revealed, not to mention that this Mrs. Fu herself is not a vase.
Although her business is not as big as her husband's younger brother, the clothing company under her name occupies nearly half of the high-end market in this city, and has opened many branches in other cities, which are also making money every day.
The An family is considered a wealthy family in the city, but it can only be considered second-rate, not enough to reach the threshold of the first-rate, and it has been on a downward slope in the past few years. It was only later that the promising An Yuan emerged that it slowly showed a trend of recovery.
But the entire An family is still not good enough in front of the Fu family, not to mention that they still dream of having any relationship with them.
As a result, the inconspicuous real daughter of the An family turned out to be Mrs. Gu’s adopted daughter. This reversal...
is too shocking.
Less than half an hour after the banquet started, this news rushed to everyone's ears at the speed of a rocket.
Many people looked at An Ran, who was still like a butterfly in the crowd, wandering around with a sweet smile, and showed a schadenfreude.
Someone is going to be unlucky.
Shanshan has always disliked An Ran, the fake daughter of a rich family, and she was cheated by this scheming woman before. How could she not seize such a good opportunity to repay her?
Shanshan took a glass of champagne and walked to An Ran with her head held high. She deliberately raised her voice and asked, "An Ran, isn't the An family going to introduce your sister to us today? Where is An Ran? Why are you here?"
An Ran was not at the An family at all, how could she come to the banquet?
An Ran's lips slightly flattened, but she still wore a false mask and whispered softly, "An Ran is not feeling well and said she doesn't want to come down."
"Huh? If she doesn't want to come down, then what's the point of your An family holding this banquet?" Shanshan suddenly became expressionless, as if she was speechless after discovering that she was deceived.
An Ran pursed her lips slightly, as if she was a little overwhelmed by Shan Shan's question, but she still managed to respond: "But Sister An Ran is really not feeling well, no matter how I persuade her, she won't..."
"An Ran is here."
There was a sudden commotion from the crowd behind.
Shan Shan turned her head in confusion. Just An Ran, even if she was Mrs. Fu's adopted daughter, couldn't cause such a commotion.
Shan Shan widened her eyes slightly, with a look of disbelief.
An Ran was wearing a starry sky evening dress, her hair was tied up high, and a sapphire necklace was embellished around her neck.
The dazzling gemstone light echoed with the starry sky dress on her body, and the dreamlike beauty made her already otherworldly face look more like a starry sky goddess, so beautiful that people couldn't help but be stunned.
But this was not the main reason for the commotion. The real reason was the young man she was holding.
The man was wearing a high-end blue suit that matched An Ran's, and the sapphire diamond watch on his wrist shone with the same brilliance as An Ran.
He was tall and slender, with a gorgeous and flamboyant complexion. His sparkling peach blossom eyes seemed to contain thousands of spring waters. A casual glance from him could cause a large number of people to blush and their hearts to beat.
But at this time, the man only showed tenderness to the woman beside him.
That was...
the second young master of the Fu family, Fu Sishen!
It seems that the relationship between An Ran and Mrs. Fu is not only that of foster mother and daughter, but also that of daughter-in-law in the future.
Shanshan accidentally saw Anran's livid face and couldn't help but smile with schadenfreude: "You got slapped in the face, right? I let you pretend."
She said this in a low voice, so only Anran could hear it. She was so angry that her face became even uglier, red and blue. If you didn't know, you would think she had some flashing lights on her face.
Hahahaha...
Shanshan was amused by the association in her mind. She had seen enough of the joke and retreated contentedly, leaving Anran standing there alone to face the pointing and talking of others.
"Didn't she just say that An Ran was sick and couldn't come down from the building?"
"You believed what a liar said, aren't you stupid?"
"Tsk, she probably expected An Ran not to come back today, so she just said something nonsense, and as a result... I feel bad for her."
...
The lie was exposed, and all kinds of rumors were thrown at An Ran like crazy, forcing her to retreat again and again, and finally she couldn't help but cover her face and leave.
The moment she turned around, An Ran couldn't help but frown.
An Ran, it's you again.
Why do you always want to take away everything from me!
She thought she had concealed it well, but she didn't know that this instantaneous change had long been silently seen by a pair of eyes.
"Another good seedling has been found."
"An Ran, you are finally here."
An Yuan wore a happy smile and hurried to meet his sister.
He wanted to hug An Ran, but was blocked by Fu Si Shen's hand: "Pay attention, men and women should not touch each other, understand?"
An Yuan's face suddenly turned black, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I am An Ran's biological brother."
"Brother is not a man? I am still An Ran's husband! Hiss... Wife, be gentle."
The result of being too frivolous is that the soft flesh around the waist suffers.
"Who is your wife? If you scream again, I will sew your mouth."
Fu Si Shen's face was distorted with pain, but he had to hold it together and not cry out in pain.
So many people are watching, can't his wife go home and play when she wants to give him some love education?
"Why do I always feel that your expression is a bit obscene."
An Yuan looked at his friend's "pain and happiness" and couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
"This is love, you, a single dog, don't understand."
An Yuan: "???"
Life attack is too much, your wife is still my sister, no, my sister is not your wife!
Suddenly thinking of the key point, An Yuan immediately dragged An Ran to his side. Fu Sishen was not convinced and wanted to snatch her away, but he was ruthlessly slapped away with one hand.
"You and An Ran have nothing to do with each other now, don't do anything."
Fu Sishen: "..."
Oops, I forgot that I am still a nameless man now.
No matter how much Fu Sishen regretted not speeding up his pursuit, he could only watch An Ran being dragged away by An Yuan openly.
He called it "introducing a customer to her."
As the saying goes, fortunes change, and retribution comes so quickly.
Perhaps sensing someone's eager gaze from behind, An Ran turned around and gave Fu Sishen a look.
I'll take this opportunity to find someone, and you can deal with it as the situation dictates.
Fu Sishen responded with a look of "got it."
