Chapter 27 Banquet (Part 3)

It was the first time that Shen Xingran met Ji Min.

For some reason, people always kept silent when talking about the young head of the Ji family.

Shen Xingran stared at the man in the wheelchair for a long time.

In his heart, he judged with pity -

it was a pity that he was a cripple.

But in a flash, Shen Xingran thought of his plan for today.

He looked at Ji Min hesitantly. It was their

first meeting, and Shen Xingran also wanted to leave a good impression on Ji Min.

If a scandal broke out at the banquet...

I don’t know if it would involve the entire Shen family, or even himself.

But there is no better opportunity than now.

If Lu Ran made a fool of himself in front of Ji Min, given Shen Hongyuan’s extremely face-conscious personality, he would never let Lu Ran return to the Shen family in the future.

He will always be the Shen family, the only "Shen Xingran".

After hesitating for a few minutes, Shen Xingran's eyes gradually became firm.

Zhang Lin finally found a chance to slip away.

The first floor of the Shen family villa is very large. There is a large waltzing hall at the entrance, and the two sides serve as the living room and dining room.

A circular corridor goes around the back of the villa, and some servants' rooms are lined up on both sides of the corridor.

Zhang Lin walked inside along the corridor.

The lighting in the corridor is not as sufficient as in the hall, and the windows are in the shade.

At this moment, the sunset outside is about to disappear, and the light dims as soon as you enter the corridor.

Zhang Lin couldn't help but think of the scene when he saw Lu Ran in the private room.

He sat on the sofa, and Lu Ran half-knelt on the ground to pick up the key.

The fingers touched the gap between his feet and the teacup, but found nothing.

So he half-raised his face to look at him.

Until today, Zhang Lin still can't help but be moved when he thinks of this scene.

But it's just an "intention".

Because when he thinks of what happened next that night...

Zhang Lin looked down at himself, and raised his head bitterly.

He looked at the door in front of him again, feeling a little nervous.

"It's okay, Zhang Lin!"

Master Zhang encouraged himself, "It's just a mental barrier. After today, you will still be the great person you used to be!"

Yes, everything is for the future.

Even if he takes medicine today, it doesn't mean that he can't do it.

After making all kinds of psychological preparations, Zhang Lin took out a small blue pill and swallowed it.

Then he stared at the door in front of him, took out the key that Shen Xingran handed to him, and opened Lu Ran's door.

"Click".

The door was unlocked.

Zhang Lin pushed it open and walked in.

Before he could even see the scene inside the door clearly, a trash can was thrown over his head.

"I've been waiting for you!"

Lu Ran said without a word, picking up the trash can and smashing it.

"Hey me me me me..." Zhang Lin was caught off guard and was stunned.

"You you you..." He finally pulled the trash can and the garbage fragments down, "Why didn't you sleep?"

"Yeah, why didn't I sleep? Why don't you try?"

Lu Ran pinched Zhang Lin's chin and made him drink the remaining half glass of wine.

The banquet was lively.

But everyone was secretly staring at the man in the wheelchair.

"I heard that his legs were slept by the illegitimate child of the Ji family..."

Someone couldn't help gossiping.

Just as he started talking, he was stopped by the people around him: "Hush! Do you still know what to say!"

Shen Hongyuan put aside all matters and followed Ji Min to greet him.

Although he is very proud, he is currently having a mid-life crisis.

But the nature of a businessman remains unchanged, and he never forces himself to lower himself when he should.

However, this time, Ji Min's expression was always indifferent.

It was hard to guess what he was thinking.

The Zhang couple also followed.

They were afraid that the business would really be snatched away by the Shen family.

Ji Min leaned back in his chair, looking a little tired. No matter

how hard the head of the Shen family and the Zhang couple tried to talk, he still half-closed his eyes and didn't show much interest.

Just an occasional response would make people unable to help but try to understand his thoughts.

This was the scene Shen Xingran saw when she came over.

He walked over with a smile and stood beside Shen Hongyuan.

Shen Hongyuan understood what he meant and immediately pulled Shen Xingran to introduce him: "Mr. Ji, this is my youngest son Xingran."

Then he said to Shen Xingran: "Say hello to Mr. Ji."

"Hello, Mr. Ji, I often hear dad mention you." Shen Xingran put on a well-behaved look.

In the past, when people said this on such occasions, they would either think it was a courtesy or that the two families were getting closer and the distance was shortened.

But the man in the wheelchair raised his eyelids and looked at him, and asked bluntly: "What did you mention about me?"

Shen Xingran's smile froze, and he was speechless for a while, and he didn't dare to say anything.

A faint sense of embarrassment spread.

Shen Hongyuan poked Shen Xingran with his elbow. Is Ji Min someone who can be approached casually!

He immediately smiled and tried to smooth things over: "It's all business matters."

Ji Min snorted and didn't comment.

Shen Hongyuan also felt regretful after he finished speaking.

Ji Min's methods were cold and hard, which made people jealous.

In addition, he was a cripple.

If they talked about it in private, it would probably not be a good thing.

Seeing this, the Zhang couple wanted to interrupt and step on Shen Hongyuan.

But just as they were about to open their mouths, they heard Ji Min say, "I'm tired, I need to be alone for a while."

After that, he remotely controlled the wheelchair to a quiet place.

Butler Chen wanted to follow.

Ji Min waved his hand.

Butler Chen understood and did not follow, continuing to greet the Shen and Zhang families.

Ji Min remotely controlled the wheelchair and walked along the corridor to a quieter place.

He stopped in front of the corridor window for a while, looking at the lawn in the backyard to relax.

He came to the Shen family this time without any purpose.

Or rather, Ji Min's purpose was to make the other families think that he had a purpose.

However, he had just finished discussing business abroad at noon, and caught a flight back in the afternoon. He was now on his way back. He was

indeed a little tired and impatient to deal with Shen Hongyuan and others.

There were not many people in the backyard.

A little yellow dog was playing with a ball on the lawn. Its hind legs were limping, but it still insisted on chasing the rolling ball.

Ji Min watched for a while and felt that the dog seemed familiar.

He moved the wheelchair closer with the remote control, but there was no response when he pressed the remote control.

Ji Min looked down and found that the wheelchair was out of power.

There was no handle on his wheelchair.

Ji Min had to call Butler Chen.

He just took out his mobile phone and heard a muffled "dong" in the room next door.

Ji Min frowned and looked over.

"Creaky".

The door opened a crack.

A fluffy head popped out and looked around cautiously in the corridor.

Caught off guard, their eyes met.

Ji Min was startled.

It was that kid.

"You..." Ji Min was about to speak.

Lu Ran slightly widened his eyes.

He rushed over in two steps, covered Ji Min's mouth, and dragged him and his wheelchair into his room.

With a "bang", the door closed.

The lights in the room were not on, and it was dark.

Ji Min's mouth and nose were covered by someone, and the wheelchair was raised when he was pulled in.

I don't know what the wheel pressed on, and it shook twice with a "clack clack".

In the 27 years of Ji Min's life, except for the kidnapping in childhood, he had never been treated like this before.

This scene also looked like a kidnapping.

However, the palm of the hand covering his mouth and nose was soft, and the arm pressed against the side of his face and neck could feel the fragility of the bones and muscles through the thin fabric of the sweatshirt .

Even if Ji Min was a cripple, he could have escaped with the strength of his arms alone.

Moreover, after just a few steps, the boy behind him was so tired that he was "hey yo hey yo".

I have never seen such a useless "kidnapper".

Wait for the wheelchair to land.

The "kidnapper" hidden in the dark also complained: "Why are you and your wheelchair so heavy?"

Ji Min did not answer.

Wait for Lu Ran to release the hand covering him.

He pursed his lips and felt it for a while, then frowned and asked, "What did your hand just touch?"

"Oh, the trash can!"

Lu Ran turned on the light.

Ji Min was disgusted by this answer for a few seconds.

But soon, he took back his unqualified evaluation of Lu Ran as a "kidnapper".

Because when he lowered his head, he realized what his wheelchair had just rolled over.

It was a person. He

was still lying on the ground, sleeping as if he was unconscious.

Lu Ran turned his back to him and pulled Zhang Lin aside.

He looked up at the serious-looking man behind him.

"Mr. Ji, right? Could you please be quiet for a while?"

"Although I'm grateful for your help, I'm not in a good mood now and don't really want you to ruin my plan."

Ji Min listened to his "threat" calmly.

Now that the lights were on, he realized that the person on the ground was lying, but the boy who was standing now was not in a good condition either.

His hair was disheveled and there were traces of a scuffle on his body.

The zipper on the collar of his sweatshirt was torn open, and there were red marks on his neck left by fingers.

The pair of quiet and well-behaved black eyes were half-lowered, and the scene in the eyes could not be seen clearly.

For a moment, Ji Min thought of the first time he saw Lu Ran.

The man was standing on the road, holding the dog that was hit by a car in his arms.

He looked like he had eight hundred thoughts in mind, trying to deal with the rich kid driving a sports car in front of him.

But his body was stiff and alert, and his eyes seemed to hide the madness before his death.

Ji Min lowered his eyes and glanced at the ground.

He saw that the prodigal son of the Zhang family was lying on the ground.

The man was lying on the ground with his belt half untied.

Ji Min frowned.

He was about to teach the child in front of him that he should call the police in such a situation.

Instead of pulling him, a passerby, in.

But when he lowered his head, he saw Lu Ran squatting down and continuing to pull Zhang Lin's pants.

Ji Min was stunned for two seconds.

He began to think about who was the victim .

After being stunned, he asked: "What are you doing?"

"Taking off clothes." Lu Ran didn't even raise his head.

Ji Min was silent for a while.

He didn't know what he was thinking about, and he rubbed his forehead and said, "Why are you always taking off your clothes?"

If it's not yours, it's someone else's.

"Huh?" Lu Ran didn't hear clearly and looked up.

Zhang Lin is a grown man after all, and he didn't take laxatives like last time.

So it wasn't too easy for Lu Ran to beat him today.

He went to the side and took a wet tissue to wipe his face before coming back.

Thinking of his hand covering Ji Min just now, he handed another one to Ji Min.

Knowing that he thought it was dirty, he threw an alcohol spray bottle over.

Ji Min took the thing and looked at Lu Ran again.

He saw that Lu Ran had quickly stripped Zhang Lin clean.

"..."

"What are you doing?" Ji Min asked.

"Nothing, just stripping him naked and dragging him out." Lu Ran said.

Ji Min thought of that scene and was silent for a while.

He had no patience for the children's nonsense, and raised his hand to pick up his mobile phone to make a call.

Before making the call, because he and Lu Ran had met for a while, he advised: "Go out and call someone, it's better than handling it yourself."

"Call someone?" Lu Ran laughed and turned to look at him, "Who to call? Who can help me?"

His tone was sharp.

Ji Min unconsciously stopped making the call.

Lu Ran's hands did not stop moving.

He said in a flat tone: "Do you want me to stand in the living room and tell everyone loudly that Zhang Lin wants to sleep with me?"

He looked up at Ji Min.

The corners of his eyes were still well-behaved, but his eyes were full of rebellion.

"Then what? Who will help me, Shen Hongyuan or Mrs. Shen? Or should I expect this guy's parents to take care of him?"

Lu Ran kicked Zhang Lin.

Zhang Lin groaned in his sleep.

Ji Min didn't know the situation inside the Shen family.

He didn't say anything.

Lu Ran suddenly thought of something interesting.

He turned around, faced Ji Min, and asked: "Mr. Ji, if you want to sleep with me, do you think my father will pack me up and send me to your bed?"
