But he didn't say anything.
So, is he going to say it or... not say it?
Qiu Ran was in a dilemma, and at this moment, he received a call from Lin Bing.
"Hello?"
"Hello? Where are you?"
"Still in Los Angeles!"
Until he has made up his mind, he'd better not meet Duan Dinglan and the others.
Otherwise, he would be exposed too easily.
"I'll give you one more chance. Where are you now?"
Qiu Ran thought this was probably a provocation, so he still bit the bullet:
"I'm really in the city. I told you, Sister Lin, two days ago that someone from the Qiu family is coming, and I have to go and receive them."
Lin Bing chuckled twice, not sure if he really believed it.
The call was not hung up.
Just when Qiu Ran was feeling smug, he suddenly heard a voice on the other end of the phone.
Lin Bing's voice came:
"Wanwan, what do you think of our A Yao? He's got good looks, a job, and a good family background. If you like him, I'll introduce him to you!"
Qiu Ran immediately began to beg for mercy:
"Sister, my dear sister! Please don't tell me the truth. I'm not in the city. I'm in the mountains."
The person on the other end of the line seemed to have taken the call back to his lips.
This time it was Lin Bing's turn to be elated:
"Hehe, you brat, if you want to talk nonsense in front of me, you still need to practice for another two years. Come to Congyun Hall right now!"
Although Lin Bing is a member of the Lin family, she is Xiaoqi's godmother after all.
So, she is also Xiaoqi's family.
According to Gao Yunya's wishes, she invited Duan Dinglan to live in Congyun Club.
Lin Bing naturally worried about her living here alone.
Out of selfish motives, Chen Yao didn't want to leave Duan Dinglan here alone.
As for Zhou Qingwan, wherever Duan Dinglan is, that's where she will be.
As a result, almost everyone stayed in Congyun Club.
But they didn't go to the military camp to cause trouble, so Gao Yunya turned a blind eye.
Qiu Ran smiled bitterly, he knew he couldn't escape.
From inside the Yun Club.
Qiu Ran sat obediently among the crowd.
Lin Bing slammed the table and stood up. His anger was naturally directed at Qiu Ran:
"What's going on with your Gao family? You took the child away and don't plan to return him, right?"
Qiu Ran smiled awkwardly: "Well, Sister Lin, my last name is Qiu."
Lin Bing glared at him unhappily:
"Stop talking nonsense here and tell me quickly, what's going on with our Xiaoqi now? Is she okay?"
Speaking of this question, Qiu Ran's mind emerged with the image of Song Rushuang's current appearance.
He really couldn't say that he was living a good life.
Lin Bing didn't expect that his routine question just started would actually stump Qiu Ran.
Duan Dinglan responded the fastest:
"What's wrong? Did something happen to my Xiaoqi?"
Qiu Ran shuddered noticeably, then looked at Duan Dinglan with a complicated look.
The extent of this problem scared everyone.
Lin Bing also quickly asked:
"Just tell me what I'm asking you. What happened?"
"I said I can tell you, but Sister Lin, Sister Duan, don't be so anxious."
His attempt to cover up the truth only escalated the whole matter to an even more worrying level.
Lin Bing was too lazy to play dumb with him and urged anxiously:
"The premise for us not to worry is that you have to tell us what happened right away!"
"I don't know the specific situation, but Xiaoqi doesn't seem to be in good condition. She has burns on her left arm and face."
Just one sentence made Duan Dinglan almost faint.
She stumbled, but fortunately Chen Yao reached out to support her in time.
"What do you mean by burns? What do you mean by looks like burns? Qiu Ran, how come you're not even sure about the child's current condition?!"
"I……"
Zhou Qingwan suddenly asked:
"Are you unsure why she was injured, or are you unsure if she was injured at all?"
Qiu Ran felt that he was not mistaken.
Although it was not very bright at that time, there was a light in the house.
"I can confirm that she was injured. As for why she was injured, I, I don't know yet."
Lin Bing was so angry that her chest hurt:
"You don't know? How could you not know? You can't even do such a small thing. Don't you know or don't want to know?"
Before Qiu Ran could continue to say anything, Lin Bing continued:
"You're truly worthy of being the local tyrant of Luo City. You snatched the child right in front of her and then tortured her. Are you Gao family still human?!"
Facing Lin Bing's accusations, Qiu Ran did not argue.
Lin Bing was right about one thing.
No matter what, he is a member of the Gao family. Although his surname is not Gao, the blood of the Gao family flows in his body.
If the person who hurt Xiaoqi is from the Gao family, then he cannot escape responsibility.
Besides, what does it matter if you get scolded?
Compared to the injury suffered by Xiaoqi, being scolded was just a painless itch.
At the critical moment, Duan Dinglan spoke a fair word for Qiu Ran:
"No, Sister Xiaolin shouldn't say that about Comrade Xiaoqiu. He's been away from the mountain for two days. He doesn't know what happened. It's normal."
Qiu Ran was moved.
Duan Dinglan must be worried to death now.
But in this situation, she would actually plead for me.
This made Qiu Ran feel somewhat ashamed.
Duan Dinglan suddenly clenched Lin Bing's hand. She looked anxious, and her eyes were red.
"Sister Xiaolin, please help me. Xiaoqi has been well protected by her family since she was a child. How could she get burned? I don't know anything right now. I, I'm scared to death. I need to see her immediately."
After saying this, Duan Dinglan was already crying uncontrollably.
She didn't want to trouble Xiaolin, but she really had no other choice.
It's only been four days and Xiaoqi was burned.
If a few days pass, will she never see Xiaoqi again?
Lin Bing gritted her teeth, she was also worried about Xiaoqi's safety.
"Okay, I have to break into the Gao family's military compound today. I want to see who in the Gao family dares to lay a hand on my daughter!"
Duan Dinglan nodded while crying.
Chen Yao felt heartbroken, as if his wife and daughter were being bullied.
Since he already had a good impression of Duan Dinglan, it was really difficult for him not to share the same hatred with him at this time.
"I'll go with you."
Lin Bing's first reaction was to refuse.
Chen Yao is not an ordinary person, and his surname means that he cannot do anything in his own name.
“No, if the Shen family is implicated, how will you explain to Uncle Shen and the others?”
Chen Yao asked in return: "But I'm going to bring a little girl home, what do you need to explain?"
