"Let's go eat." After the meal, he still had an appointment with Shui Junyu. Thinking about his appointment with Shui Junyu on the phone, she suddenly felt like going over to hear why Li Ling Ran wanted to see Shui Junyu.
He only wanted to repay the debt of gratitude to Yuan Shuiqing, right? And why was he related to Shui Junyu?
As he walked out of the hospital, his words were light, he didn't seem to be sick at all, the intimacy between them had returned to how they used to be, but it made her feel more and more uncomfortable. They entered a small restaurant across the hospital together, filled with people and bustling as if they were part of a large family.
"What do you want to eat? I'll treat you to dinner, so don't be polite, order whatever you want? "
"Everything is good. It's not like you don't know, I love to eat everything."
He smiled at her and reached across the table to pinch her nose, "Hehe, it's the same as before, but you don't know, the more you don't order, the more trouble I'll have, I don't know what to order for you, Xiao Zhu, just order it once, so I don't have to worry about it, how about it?"
Only now did she remember his words. In the past, whenever she ate with him, she would not care about anything but eating. "Ling Ran, did I make things difficult for you in the past?" She was embarrassed.
"That won't happen either. I'm just lazy today and don't want to use my brain to order dishes for you. Heh heh."
She took the menu and looked through it seriously. Then, she shook her head and said, "I don't remember which one of these dishes is bad, Ling Ran …"
"You, sometimes you're just like a little kid. Alright, I'll do it. Just wait." With a focused expression, he focused on the menu. After a short while, he ordered four dishes and a bowl of soup. He then handed them to the waiter and said, "Please hurry up. I have an appointment tonight. It's not good to be late."
"Yes, sir." The waiter immediately went to get the dishes.
Mo Xiaozhu picked up the dishes cooked by the waiter on the table. Just as she was about to drink, he called out to her, "Don't drink."
"Huh?"
"You don't drink tea well, have you forgotten?"
"It's nothing once in a while."
"That won't do." She looked at his back, and very quickly, he placed a glass of white water in front of her. Actually, he could have asked the person who ordered to bring her a cup of white water, but he didn't, instead he personally went to change it for her. In fact, she had long ago let out the laser stone in her kidney, but he kept on telling her that it would be easy to get more after getting the stone.
Thus, this thing, there were many things she was not allowed to eat.
She picked up the white water. It wasn't too hot or cold, but it was just about right. "Ling Ran, thank you."
"What are you thanking me for? You're being too polite with me again. You're becoming more and more like a child."
He always said tonight that she was like a child. "Ling Ran, my new company has already planned to sell some stocks and then start preparing. When that happens, you have to help me."
"About this, haha, I'm sorry, but I can't agree to this. I'm just a layman. If you want to open a hospital, I'll definitely help you." He smiled evasively.
Is that really it?
Perhaps, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do it.
At the bottom of her heart, a dejected feeling filled her heart. The dishes had finally arrived. It was obvious that he had meticulously ordered them, but she was not tasting any of them at all.
The phone vibrated three times and she hung up again and again. Later on, she simply turned it off.
His son was more important.
However, wanting to accompany Li Linggran to eat a full meal was even more important.
How was his illness?
She was getting more and more worried. It seemed like she needed to find a chance to find out more about it. However, this matter was a bit troublesome. Other than the person who diagnosed him, no one else would know about it.
He had always kept his mouth shut, just like how Mo Xiaozhu had kept it a secret until now.
She didn't feel happy at all during the meal, but it was him who was always smiling, as if nothing had happened to him.
Coughing blood, didn't he know how to be afraid?
After dinner, it was already nearly seven. He went to settle the bill and then said to her, "I'll help you call a taxi. I can't send you back today. You can go back by yourself."
"Yes." "Yes," she said softly, her heart heavy. When he walked out of the hotel, he actually took a taxi for her and watched her sit in the car before he turned and hurried to his own.
Is it really that urgent to go to the Xinyuan?
What was he looking for Shui Junyu for?
"Miss, where are you going?"
She said without thinking, "Xinyuan."
She was going to the place she went yesterday.
That place, that was the turning point of her life. Every time she went there, it would give her a memory that she could not erase no matter how hard she tried. It had always been fresh in her mind.
The car sped away, and she quietly sat inside the car as she gazed at the scenery outside the window. When her gaze swept past the shop, she suddenly remembered that she had changed her clothes, otherwise, when she arrived at Xinyuan Palace, she would have been discovered by Shui Junyu and Li Lingran.
That, was not good.
"Master, can we stop for a moment?" I'll go and buy some things, and I'll be back soon. "
"How long will it take?"
"About ten minutes. I'll give you more money."
"OK, alright, I'll wait for you."
Actually, there were a lot of taxis. She only wanted to save time as she was afraid that she would arrive too long after Li Ling Ran. Then, she might miss something, really miss it.
She chose a random princess outfit she had never worn before, in addition to a wide-brimmed hat. At the same time, she also had an ornamental pair of glasses, which she very casually matched because she was really in a hurry, but when she stood in front of the mirror and saw herself, she almost couldn't recognize herself. This kind of princess outfit made her look like she was a few years younger.
When he came out, the driver was waiting for him. He jumped on the driver's seat and said, "Master, please hurry up."
The driver glanced at her. In fact, he almost didn't recognize her when she ran to the car. "Miss, you don't look that handsome in this outfit."
"Did you not recognize me?" She smiled. This was exactly what she wanted.
"Is that so? I still recommend that Miss change back into her previous attire."
"Mhmm, I got it. It's just for tonight. Hur Hur."
The taxi stopped in front of the gate of Xinyuan Garden. Mo Xiaozhu tried her best to appear natural. Don't be afraid, even she couldn't recognize herself, let alone others.
As long as he didn't say anything, everything would be okay.
He looked at his phone again. It was still turned off.
Mu Shaoli must be worried.
However, she really did not want to miss tonight. She especially wanted to know what Li Lingran wanted to say to Shui Junyu. It was as if this was very important to her.
Ye Ci walked into Xin Garden. She was a girl, and Xin Garden never accepted tickets from girls. Only when there were many girls would men come. This boss was especially knowledgeable about the ways of business.
After walking through the main entrance, Xin Garden was overcrowded with people and was filled with smoke. She was most afraid that the two of them would enter the VIP box.
Mo Xiaozhu was not in a hurry to go over. It was too eye-catching to go too quickly. She was afraid of attracting the attention of the two men. She first went to the bar and ordered two cocktails, then walked to an empty seat closer to them.
That spot was especially remote, and because the dance floor couldn't be seen, no one liked to sit there. However, she really liked it because there was only one table between Shui Jun and Li Ling Ran.
She calmly walked over and sat down. The two men didn't look in her direction, allowing her to somewhat calm down.
Tell yourself, no matter what happens, do not speak, absolutely do not speak.
Two cocktails were enough. She really couldn't drink too much.
Sitting down, she took a cigarette from her pocket and lit it up. She had just bought it at the bar and never smoked, but now she deliberately pretended to know how to smoke.
When the wine arrived, she gracefully sat on a chair. The smoke she exhaled lingered in the surroundings, but her ears perked up. All of her attention was focused on the two men not far away.
The hall was so noisy that she couldn't really hear what they were saying.
Moving his chair slightly, he seemed to have heard something. It was Li Lingran's voice, "Mr. Shui, I want to confirm something."
"Sure, go ahead."
"Do you still remember six years ago when the Mo family went bankrupt?"
Shui Junyu paused for a moment before replying with a smile, "I remember. Who doesn't know that such a big company has gone bankrupt?"
"Mr. Shui, do you really only remember that it's because the Mo Clan is really big? I don't think so. "
Mo Xiaozhu glanced at Shui Junyu's fingers and started to play the piano. He seemed to be deep in thought. He smiled and said, "President Li, what do you want to ask? Just say it."
"Alright, then I won't be polite. I've checked, the person who bought 40% of the Mo family's shares at a high price seems to be surnamed Luo."
Shui Junyu quickly stood up, "Li Ling Ran, what do you mean by this? My mother's surname is Luo, but she's a woman. She's been away from T City for ten years, and she's only back now, and you're going to distort her. What do you want? "
Mo Xiaozhu was dumbfounded.
Was the death of his father, his mother, and the Mo Clan's downfall related to Shui Junyu and his mother?
Suddenly, she remembered Shui Junyu's mother, that woman. The first time she saw her, she felt a sense of déjà vu.
Was his mother's death really related to that woman?
Leaning against the back of the chair, she suddenly regretted coming to Xinyuan.
If he didn't know, he wouldn't be sad.
I know, she will only get further away from Shui Junyu …
