Chapter 617: Everyone Excludes
After Chen Jie left feeling aggrieved, Vivian kindly said, "Lin Yilan, I think you should pay more attention to Chen Jie."
Before Lin Yilan could speak, Chu Siran started to protect her, "It's just a child, there's nothing to be concerned about. Vivian, you're too cautious."
What bad intentions could a child have?
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this kid Chen Jie?" Lin Yilan was also puzzled, although she saw Chen Jie hiding in the corner and grinning at the panicked Xi Lulu.
But Lin Yilan didn't think anything was wrong, she just thought it was the smug smile of a child after a prank was successful. Chen Jie was usually very well-behaved and sensible, sometimes even so sensible that she felt a little distressed.
Lin Yilan felt that Chen Jie was so sensible because he had received too little love in the past, so he had to become sensible.
Today Chen Jie showed his childish side. Although Lin Yilan was a little unhappy, she was also relieved that he finally acted like a child.
Pranks are what kids of Chen Jie's age love to do most.
Weiweian saw that Lin Yilan still didn't notice anything, and Chu Siran was still a little protective of Chen Jie, so she didn't say anything more, "Maybe I'm overthinking it."
If Chen Jie was really not right, he would be exposed sooner or later because he and Lin Yilan were together day and night. Lin Yilan was a smart person and should have discovered it herself.
…
Huo Juncheng had just sent away the furious Mr. Zhang when Taohua J called.
"I'm going to participate in an event organized by the Flower Cult this afternoon." This one sentence made Huo Juncheng instantly nervous.
This organization may be related to that mysterious organization, and it also concerns Lin Yilan's life safety, so he can't help but care.
"Be careful. If you find anything wrong, retreat immediately." Huo Juncheng reminded Taohua J. He is Lin Yilan's third senior brother, and Huo Juncheng can't let anything really happen to him.
Taohua J sneered from the other end of the phone, "Huo Juncheng, do you think everyone is as fragile as you? If anyone dares to provoke me, I can beat ten of them by myself."
Huo Juncheng had no interest in teasing Taohua J. "I know you're very capable, but your survival is the most important thing. If anything happens to you, Yilan will feel bad."
"Got it. I'll be doing a live broadcast with you this afternoon. Please watch carefully to see if there's anything you want in this event."
As for the "live broadcast", of course it will be done with special equipment and will not be done blatantly.
"Sorry for the trouble."
"I'm doing this for my junior sister, not for you. Don't be polite to me." Taohua J snorted, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up. I'll contact you this afternoon."
"Wait, there's one more thing." Huo Juncheng's face darkened slightly.
The fact that Lin Yilan received the death photo has been weighing on Huo Juncheng's mind. He asked people to investigate, but found nothing. He wondered if Taohua J could get any clues about the activities of the "Huajiao" organization.
Of course, when Lin Yilan received this photo, it was also a dangerous signal. Perhaps the mysterious organization was about to take action against Lin Yilan.
"Death photo?" Taohua J's tone became more serious after hearing Huo Juncheng's words, "How is my junior sister?"
"She's fine, just a little frightened. However, Yilan has a good mental state." Huo Juncheng's words were very clear.
If a normal girl saw those photos, she would probably be scared to death. But Lin Yilan was able to think calmly, which was enough to show how strong her mental strength was.
Lin Yilan's strength, bravery and justice are what attract Huo Juncheng to her.
"I think that mysterious organization will be making some moves soon. This afternoon's event won't be peaceful. You must be careful."
"I get it. You're a CEO, but when did your mouth become more gossipy than an old woman's?" Taohua J was a little annoyed and his words became more vicious when he learned that Lin Yilan had received the death photo.
"I just hope you have a safe journey."
The two of them didn't say anything else and hung up the phone together.
On the other side, at Huo Juncheng's home.
Xi Lulu was very embarrassed because she had just made a fool of herself in public. In order to save her image in front of Grandma Huo, she ran to the kitchen to wash dishes with Sister Xiu.
It's not just to show off. Sister Xiu is a servant of the Huo family. When they were eating just now, Sister Xiu was standing aside and watching. If the person who put the earthworms in her trouser pocket did it while she was eating, Sister Xiu must have seen it.
Xi Lulu wanted to get some information from Sister Xiu.
"Miss Lulu, you are a guest and I am a servant. How can I let you do these things?" Sister Xiu stood on Lin Yilan's side and didn't like Xi Lulu either.
But Sister Xiu was just a servant and didn't dare to be rude to Xi Lulu, so she could only reject Xi Lulu politely.
"It's okay, Sister Xiu, I'll help you. It's just washing the dishes. I always wash them myself at home. I feel embarrassed to come to the Huo family and eat a meal for free." Xi Lulu also looked down on Sister Xiu, but she knew that she had to build a good relationship with the Huo family's servants, otherwise she might be teased for no reason like today when she came to the Huo family in the future.
"Ms. Lulu, this is not possible. If my husband knew that I asked the customer to do things for me, my salary would be deducted. Please don't make things difficult for me." Sister Xiu still refused.
In her eyes, Xi Lulu is also a spoiled child. If she is asked to wash the dishes, won’t she break a few plates?
Vivian happened to pass by the kitchen and wanted to get a glass of water, and heard their conversation.
Weiweian ignored Xi Lulu, walked to the refrigerator door, took out a bottle of soda water, unscrewed the cap and took a sip, then said with a smile, "Sister Xiu, some people like to be served. Don't stop them. The more you stop them, the more they will hate you."
"Vivian, what did you say?" Xi Lulu was furious and pointed at Vivian and shouted.
Weiwei had already opened the kitchen door and half walked out of the kitchen. She raised an eyebrow at Xi Lulu and said, "I didn't say anything! I was just talking to Sister Xiu. Why are you so angry?"
Xu Ziwen and Grandma Huo were talking in the living room. Vivian opened the kitchen door. If Xi Lulu shouted again, Xu Ziwen and Grandma Huo would be able to hear her.
Vivian knew that Xi Lulu didn't dare to make a scene in front of Grandma Huo and Xu Ziwen, so she deliberately stood at the door and talked to Xi Lulu.
"Vivian, were you talking about me just now?" Xi Lulu said through gritted teeth.
"What did I just say?" Vivian looked puzzled. "I was just talking to the servants, weren't you? Don't put yourself in my shoes."
Vivian looked at Sister Xiu again and smiled slightly.
Sister Xiu knew that Vivian didn't really mean to dislike the servants, she was just teasing Xi Lulu, and she wasn't angry with Vivian. After saying that, Vivian waved her hand gracefully, "Bye, you wash the dishes well, I'm going to lie down and rest."
