Chapter 12
"Okay, okay." Lin Ran was stunned and walked towards her room.
"Oh, right." The housekeeper continued with a smile, "The master went on an urgent overseas visit last night. The Third Madam went out to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony, and the Sixth Miss has also returned. So if you have anything, just call me directly."
Lin Ran was surprised and delighted. Shen Zhongqi was actually going abroad for a visit in the middle of the night? Was it that urgent?
So, her detention is over?
Her tense mood relaxed, and she returned to her room, found the medicine in her bag, and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Young Master." The housekeeper looked at Shen Jinghan who came out of the corridor, walked upstairs quickly, and said in a low voice, "The fifth lady has returned to her room. She should be fine."
Shen Jinghan's handsome face sank slightly, he saw it.
He lowered his eyes slightly and said in a low voice, "Have the family doctor come over and watch her eat three meals a day. Also, have the doctor ask her what medicine she has been taking."
Although she was delicate before, she was not weak and fragile, nor would she faint easily.
The housekeeper was slightly surprised and whispered, "Okay, Master."
*
For two consecutive days, Chenyuan was surprisingly calm.
Shen Zhongqi went on a temporary visit abroad and his return date is uncertain. Lin Ruolan is cutting the ribbon today and attending a tea party tomorrow. She is so busy that she doesn't want to leave. Shen Jinghan is not here either. It is said that he goes out early and comes back late every day. He is either working overtime or on his way to work overtime.
It's normal for him to be out of sight for ten days or half a month when he is busy.
Lin Ran had a rare two days of peace and comfort.
The Shen family's family doctor came over every day and gave her antibiotics for two days, and her illness was almost cured.
Soon it will be the hundred-day banquet for the eldest grandson of the He family.
Early in the morning, Lin Ruolan had a bunch of dresses delivered.
"Ranran, come and pick some out. These are the limited edition new models of the season. We are going to the He family tonight, and we must be the most stunning among all the girls." Lin Ruolan was in a great mood as she looked at her newly made Impatiens manicure.
When the Shen family father and son were not at home, she became the head of the family and lived a happy life like a god.
Lin Ran was not in the mood. She had been sick these days and had wasted a lot of time. Now that she had recovered, she should go out and find a part-time job to support her family and investigate the matter of the seal.
"Let's take this one. This color looks good on you." Lin Ruolan picked out a light blue off-shoulder long dress with a sharp eye, tried it on herself, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Why do you look so bad? Why are your nails cut so short? No, the makeup artist will be here soon. I have to ask her to do a beautiful manicure for you. Hands are a woman's second face."
Lin Ran curled her lips. She had been sick for three days. Lin Ruolan really didn't know anything about it, and she didn't want to say anything.
"I don't wear it."
Cinderella is Cinderella. Even if she wears a gorgeous dress and rides in a pumpkin carriage, the magic will still disappear at twelve o'clock.
Besides, she is not even as good as Cinderella.
Cinderella in the fairy tale was born into aristocracy, so what is she?!
Lin Ruolan said angrily, "Lin Ran, you really wasted the face I gave you. All the people going to the He family tonight are well-known figures. If you were still in the small fishing village, you would never meet them in your life.
Mom has paved the way for you, why are you acting like a spoiled brat?
"No." She said lightly.
Lin Ruolan was so angry that she raised her hand to hit her.
Lin Ran raised her little face and sneered. Hasn't she been beaten enough in this family?
The housekeeper appeared at the right time and said with a smile, "Fifth Miss, the eldest young master said that he wants you to attend the He family's hundred-day banquet tonight, and he will also be there."
Lin Ran's expression changed.
Lin Ruolan was also surprised: "Doesn't the eldest master usually avoid attending banquets like this? Why did he specifically ask Ranran to go?"
Could it be some conspiracy or trap? Shen Jinghan is not a pushover. Over the years, not to mention her, even the master has suffered a lot at his hands.
There is no father and son in a wealthy family, not to mention that she is an illegitimate stepmother.
The butler smiled and said, "I don't know about this. I'm just conveying the eldest young master's meaning."
Shen Jinghan let her go, and the matter was settled.
Lin Ruolan was puzzled and could only remind her: "Be careful at night. There are many factions among the wealthy families in Hong Kong. Remember to tell me if you meet anyone. If Shen Jinghan makes things difficult for you, just bear with it."
Lin Ran bit her lip and her eyelashes trembled slightly. Tonight, Shen Jinghan was making things difficult for her.
Because she still owed him twice, she had no choice but to endure it.
