Thinking of this, Jiang Ranli bit her lips tightly, trying hard to suppress the sour nose and eyes that were already covered with tears.
"Li'er, I'm back," Jiang Fan walked in from outside, holding an exquisite food box in his hand, looking at her with a smile.
Seeing this, Jiang Ranli quickly turned sideways to wipe away her tears. When she turned back, a forced smile hung on her delicate and fair face.
"Why did you come back so late? Guoguo had already fallen asleep and kept saying that he missed you before going to sleep."
"Some things have delayed me. Have you eaten? This snack is newly developed by Frost and Snow Academy. Would you like to try it?" Jiang Fan said as he took out the snack from the lunch box.
Jiang Ranli shook his head and said, "I don't want to become a fat man. I won't eat anymore. I'll eat tomorrow."
"You are so thin that you are almost as thin as a telephone pole. How can you be fat? Forget it, since you don't want to eat, then don't eat. Eating so late is not good for your stomach. You should go and rest. I'll go see Guoguo."
After saying that, Jiang Fan patted Jiang Ranli's head, and then walked towards the little meatball's room.
The moment he turned around, the smile on Jiang Fan's face disappeared, and there was worry between his brows. Just now, he pretended not to see Jiang Ranli's smile that was sadder than crying, and pretended not to notice her pretending to be strong, just to prevent her from having any psychological burden. But now, he really couldn't laugh. He claimed to be her elder brother, but now he couldn't give her any help.
Seeing Jiang Fan leave, Jiang Ranli breathed a sigh of relief and patted his cheek, "Well done, we can't let them worry."
Three days later.
Tianxia Restaurant has been sealed off by Yinzhen and the Tenth Prince. Jiang Ranli did not go there, not because she did not want to see Yinzhen, but because she did not want to see the contempt and disdain in Yinzhen's eyes. If that happened, all her insistence would be in vain. She did not want to worry Jiang Fan, Uncle Wang, Nanny Wang, Sixian, Sidai, and even more so, she did not want the little meatball to worry.
And, most importantly, it was widely rumored in the city that the Ninth Prince of the Qing Dynasty favored the daughter of Deng Weimin, the governor of Shandong, and always kept her by his side. She did not want to see him with other women. If that happened, she didn't know what would happen to her.
More than ten days later, the rumors about Yinzhen and Miss Deng in the city became more and more rampant.
Some people say that Miss Deng will soon be able to become a phoenix and marry into the royal family.
Some people say that the Ninth Prince loves Miss Deng very much, which is very enviable.
Some people say that Miss Deng is beautiful and the Ninth Prince is as handsome as a banished immortal, and the picture of the two standing together is particularly pleasing to the eye.
. . .
Jiang Ranli heard a lot of similar news, and later, even if she didn't want to hear it, she would occasionally hear it from the whispers of the maids in the mansion.
Jiang Fan looked at Jiang Ranli, who was sitting in a daze under the corridor, from afar, with anger on his face.
He glanced sideways at the maids kneeling beside him and said angrily, "If I hear those rumors again, get out one by one."
"Master, please calm down. We know we were wrong and we will never dare to say it again," the maids begged for mercy in fear.
In their impression, Jiang Fan always had a smiling face, and they had never seen him so angry. Today was the first time.
"roll".
Jiang Fan glanced at the maids irritably, then strode towards Jiang Ranli.
Jiang Ranli sat on the corridor, staring blankly at the lotus pond beside her where the water was dwindling.
