Chapter 94
Lin Ran looked at the suitcase that she had packed last night, but ultimately did not move.
Lin Ruolan is back. If she leaves now, she will have no chance to know what happened in the small fishing village.
She struggled again and again and decided to endure it for a few more days.
Lin Ran sent a message to He Yuanbai: "Lawyer He, can I invite you to dinner at Chenyuan tonight?"
There has been no movement from the He family, so she has to add more fuel to the fire.
He Yuanbai called back: "Lin Ran, what identity should I come with tonight? This will determine what gift I should bring."
Lin Ran was stunned.
"I understand." He Yuanbai smiled slightly, "See you tonight."
He Yuanbai arrived at Chen Garden at five o'clock in the afternoon. When he arrived, Shen Zhongqi had not returned yet.
The side hall had just been smashed, and even the half-person-high vase in the corner was smashed to pieces. There was no time to repair it, so it seemed a bit empty.
"This is Hua Mantang's butterfly pastry. Your second brother said you like sweets, so he brought some for you." He Yuanbai smiled, wearing a white suit, looking refreshing, handsome and elegant.
Lin Ran took the butterfly cake and thanked him softly: "Thank you, please take a seat. Dinner may be served later."
As for what time dinner would be served, she didn't know either, it all depended on Shen Jinghan's mood.
But she doubted whether she could have dinner tonight.
Judging from the violent storm in the side hall this morning, it was estimated that it would be impossible for the Shen family father and son to sit together for dinner in the short term.
He Yuanbai smiled and said, "It's okay. I came here to see you, not to have dinner."
Lin Ran: "Let me take you for a stroll in the small garden."
"good."
Lin Ran took him into the small garden at the back and asked him what kind of tea he wanted.
"Anything is fine. I'm not picky."
Lin Ran took out the pre-rain Longjing tea from the teapot, sat in the small pavilion in the lush garden, and made tea for him.
"This is Longjing tea from before the rain this spring."
She opened two bottles of spring water for tea and started brewing tea. In the past, when Chenyuan was too busy, she often helped the servants. Making tea and cooking were things she could do with ease.
Since she has taken advantage of He Yuanbai, she should also express her stance.
He Yuanbai saw her making tea with her brows lowered and her thorns put away. She was as gentle and quiet as the gardenias immersed in a water tank on a summer night, white, fresh, and alluring. He couldn't take his eyes off her for a while.
The tea soon boiled.
He Yuanbai asked in a low voice: "What did you ask me to do yesterday? I will help you in any way I can."
Lin Ran paused her movements and looked at him with deep eyes: "I want you to help me investigate my mother."
He Yuanbai was stunned. Investigating Lin Ruolan? She was Shen Zhongqi's woman. Investigating her was like investigating Shen Zhongqi.
He knew how deep the Shen family's waters were.
Lin Ran, what do you want to do?
"Is it difficult?" Lin Ran lowered her eyes, her little face as white as jade, looking charming in the evening breeze.
"I want to know why she abandoned me back then. She abandoned me when I was born, and then abandoned me again seven years ago. He Ershao, am I really that bad?"
Lin Ran's eyelashes trembled slightly, like a fragile and beautiful butterfly.
He Yuanbai's voice was slightly dry: "Okay, but sometimes knowing the truth may not be a good thing."
Lin Ran's eyelashes, thick as crow feathers, were like a small fan, casting a light shadow: "Let's investigate this matter first."
She took out a photo of Lin Ruolan and the director of the small fishing village and looked at him deeply.
It was an exploitation, but also a test. She wanted to know what kind of surprise He Yuanbai would bring her!
