Chapter 30: The Fake Daughter of a Prominent Family
“Hmm…”
In a silent and deserted grove, a car was parked quietly. A bird that happened to be flying by stopped curiously and landed on the hood of the car, looking inside with its green bean-sized eyes.
Su Youran leaned her back against the car door, her arms around the broad shoulders of the person in front of her. She turned her head inadvertently and caught a glimpse of this little guy.
All her romantic thoughts disappeared immediately, and she couldn't help but smile, and her originally rosy cheeks looked even more radiant.
She was wearing a light pink stand-up collar shirt today with the top two buttons undone, revealing a few faint red marks on her collarbone, like strawberries and petals, charming and attractive.
Ye Jiuzhou noticed that she was not paying attention, and looked up at her with a helpless look on his face:
"Ms. Su, laughing out loud at this time is very discouraging."
Su Youran couldn’t help but laugh even more happily. After she finished laughing, she pushed him aside and said, “Okay, it’s time to go home.”
Ye Jiuzhou took two deep breaths and stepped back, still breathing very close to her:
"I feel like you're going to drive me crazy sooner or later."
He seemed to sigh from the bottom of his soul: "I finally understand the feelings of those kings who don't hold court early in the morning."
He wished he could be with her all the time. Nothing was more important than the beautiful girl in front of him.
Ye Jiuzhou looked at the sky outside. It was indeed late. He said quietly:
"The night is short."
Su Youran chuckled. “Ye You even complained to me. How long has it been since he had a vacation? You’re so nice.”
Ye Jiuzhou helped her tidy up her hair and clothes, his tone was matter-of-fact, and also revealed a sense of pride and contempt:
"He doesn't even have a wife, so why would he take a vacation? He might as well use his talents to work hard."
Su Youran glanced at him and asked, "You have a wife?"
Ye Jiuzhou pecked her lips heavily:
"Aren't we just waiting for Miss Su to agree? As long as Miss Su agrees, we can have the wedding tomorrow."
Su Youran pushed his forehead in disdain:
"You are at most 7 or 8 points now. When you reach 10 points, then we can talk about marriage."
Ye Jiuzhou was not discouraged after hearing this, and even felt a little surprised:
"Have I already won 70% of Miss Su's heart? Miss Su is indeed beautiful and kind."
Su Youran didn’t know whether to be angry or amused, so she said angrily, “Just keep talking nonsense!”
She took out a small mirror and looked carefully. Her eyes were moist and the blush on her face had not faded, which was very attractive. Her lips were slightly swollen. She was charming from the corners of her eyes to her eyebrows.
Su Youran frowned slightly and opened the car window. A cool breeze blew in, dispersing some of the heat from her face.
Ye Jiuzhou disagreed and said, "Be careful not to get cold."
He raised the window to a crack, then leaned over to take the thin blanket from the back seat and covered Su Youran with it. He said worriedly,
"It's getting colder these days, so wear more clothes when you go out. Keep your legs and feet warm when you sit. Don't catch a cold."
Su Youran smoothed her hair that had been messed up by the wind and said, "I know. You're becoming more and more nagging, Butler Ye!"
Ye Jiuzhou held her hand and felt relieved that it was not very cold: "Who is this for?"
Su Youran pushed him and said, “Hurry up and drive. We’ll miss dinner if we delay any longer.”
Now, almost two months have passed since the Su family banquet, and Su Youran's life is gradually getting back on track.
In the morning, Ye Jiuzhou picked her up and took her to Boya Hospital. She either worked or played with the nurses, and occasionally had lunch with Shao Zhizhao.
Ye Jiuzhou would wait at the hospital entrance half an hour before work in the afternoon. Sometimes they dated outside, and sometimes they went back to Su's house together.
Who in Sucheng doesn’t know about this fairy couple now?
However, Su Youran still refused to agree to get married, so Ye Jiuzhou had no choice but to slowly persuade her every day.
Ye Jiuzhou put the hand he was holding to his lips and kissed it: "As you command, Your Majesty."
By the time Ye Jiuzhou sent Su Youran to the entrance of the Su Mansion, it was already getting dark.
Su Youran got out of the car without waiting for Ye Jiuzhou to open the door. She stood in front of the car door and waved at him:
"Go back, or Ye You will really cry."
When I saw him in the afternoon, I felt that he seemed to be in a bad mood. I guess there was something difficult that had not been dealt with. Going to Su's house was just to accompany her for a meal. It would be better to go back early to deal with things and not worry about it.
Ye Jiuzhou got out of the car anyway, held Su Youran in his arms, and kissed her forehead:
"Then I won't go in. Please apologize to my uncle and Aunt Wu for me. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."
Su Youran hugged his perfectly curved waist and rested her head on his chest. “Yes.”
The two of them snuggled together quietly for a while before Ye Jiuzhou reluctantly drove away.
Su Youran watched the car drive away and turned to go in. Suddenly, a male voice came from the right side behind her:
“Of course.”
Su Youran looked in the direction of the voice and immediately revealed a look of surprise: “Axun!”
She excitedly walked towards Huo Zhenxun who was standing behind her: "Ah Xun, why are you here?"
Huo Zhenxun was also wearing a shirt and trousers, and at first glance it looked like he and Su Youran were wearing couple outfits.
He put one hand in his pocket and smiled: "I came to see you, how are you doing recently?"
The hand in his trouser pocket was clenched into a fist. Huo Zhenxun watched the "tender and sweet" scene from beginning to end. Heartache, sadness and reluctance filled his heart.
But he didn't know how to do it.
The fight within the Huo family has become intense, taking up almost all of Huo Zhenxun's energy, and he is unable to free his hands for the time being.
He could only send someone to deliver something to Su Youran from time to time. The two of them had met only a few times in the past two months.
Everyone is busy with their own things during the day, and in the rare free time, Ye Jiuzhou follows Su Youran like a personal accessory, wherever Su Youran goes.
Huo Zhenxun didn’t even have the chance to be alone with Su Youran, and...
Ranran seemed to have really fallen in love with Ye Jiuzhou. Although she was still arrogant in her tone, she was very relaxed and happy when she was with Ye Jiuzhou.
What Huo Zhenxun has always wanted to protect the most is Su Youran's smile. He hopes that she can always be carefree and happy.
So does he want to destroy her current happiness?
Huo Zhenxun didn't know.
Su Youran didn't notice the twists and turns in Huo Zhenxun's mind, and smiled happily to herself:
"It's fine. How are you?"
She seemed to remember the recent rumors about the Huo family, her smile faded, and she looked a little worried:
"Is it very hard? Is it dangerous?"
The discord between the two young masters of the Huo family is an open secret in Sucheng. Most people are waiting to see who will be the heir to the Huo family.
Is it the second young master Huo who already had a certain foundation, or the eldest young master Huo who came later and had the support of Huo Guangchun?
Will the Huo family decline because of this?
There were even casinos that privately set up bets on who would be the next head of the Huo family. Quite a few people placed bets.
Su Youran didn’t know all this, but she was worried that Huo Zhenxun was in danger. After all, Huo Zhenyao had intended to harm him a few years ago.
Huo Zhenxun opened and closed his hands at his side. Finally, he couldn’t help but reach out and gently pat Su Youran’s head, smiling and comforting her:
"It's okay. Everyone is watching him now. He doesn't dare to make any extra moves."
Not only Huo Guangchun, but also other people who knew the truth about Huo Zhenxun's disappearance were watching Huo Zhenyao. If Huo Zhenxun got into trouble, Huo Zhenyao would definitely not be able to clear himself from the responsibility.
Huo Zhenyao is not that stupid.
Besides, having experienced that once, Huo Zhenxun would never let Huo Zhenyao hurt him again.
The Huo family is the basis for him to protect Su Youran, and he must get it!
Su Youran seemed to be relieved and smiled, “That’s good.”
She looked at Huo Zhenxun with a light in her eyes, as bright as stars: "Ah Xun, I don't want anything to happen to you, but you must be well."
Huo Zhenxun's eyes were full of tenderness, and the hand on her head couldn't help but slide down, slowly moving towards Su Youran's fair and jade-like face.
At this moment, a shrill horn sounded suddenly. Huo Zhenxun's hand stiffened, slowly dropped, and put into his other pocket.
Su Youran turned around and saw Ye Jiuzhou's car driving back again.
The sky was getting a little dark, and the lights in front of the car were on, causing Huo Zhenxun to squint his eyes.
Ye Jiuzhou parked the car a few steps away from the two of them, turned off the engine, got out, and closed the door in one go, then walked straight towards them with powerful steps.
Huo Zhenxun instinctively took a step forward and blocked Su Youran.
Ye Jiuzhou didn't even look at him. He walked around Huo Zhenxun and took off the thin cardigan on his arm and put it on Su Youran:
"I just forgot this was in the car. It's a bit cold so I should put it on."
The voice was still soft and lingering, and there was nothing unusual to hear.
Su Youran grabbed the cardigan and pulled it down. She said helplessly, “It will be the same tomorrow. It will take up too much time to go back and forth.”
Ye Jiuzhou put his arm around her shoulders and pinched her nose affectionately: "I'm worried that you'll need to wear it when you go out tomorrow morning, so it's safer to send it to me."
He pushed Su Youran and turned around:
"Go back quickly. Isn't it cold outside? Aunt Wu must be getting anxious waiting for you. She might even think I kidnapped you."
Su Youran glared at him, then looked at Huo Zhenxun who remained silent:
"Ah Xun, you see I'm busy talking to you, let's go in quickly, maybe we can stay and have dinner together?"
Huo Zhenxun glanced at Ye Jiuzhou, whose expression was unclear, and suddenly smiled. He walked in with Su Youran on his long legs:
"Okay, but I'm sorry to be rude. I came here in such a hurry today that I didn't bring anything with me."
"You are not a stranger, what are you bringing?"
Su Youran said angrily, as if she hadn’t noticed anything, and waved at Ye Jiuzhou:
"Go back quickly, don't you have something else to do?"
Huo Zhenxun raised his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Ye is very busy. You must be busy now."
Although he didn't want to ruin Su Youran's happiness, he just couldn't stand Ye Jiuzhou. Huo Zhenxun was happy to give him a hard time.
Ye Jiuzhou's eyes were dark, and he suddenly smiled:
"I'm not busy. I still have time to eat. I have to go in and say hello to my uncle and Aunt Wu. How can a future son-in-law not go in when he arrives at the door?"
Huo Zhenxun looked at Ye Jiuzhou expressionlessly, his eyes dark and gloomy.
Ye Jiuzhou also looked at him, with a sarcastic arc at the corner of his mouth, his expression was sharp and full of edge.
