C9 Friend of the Girl

Xia Anran pouted. She didn't know what had happened to her. Even though she knew the name was a forbidden area for men, she still couldn't help herself from mentioning it.

Gu Zichen lowered his head to look at her. The man's domineering aura lingered at the tip of his nose, while the fragrance of fresh aftershave spread in the air.

"Hoh, are you jealous?" Gu Zichen said with a smile on his lips.

Xia Anran's face immediately flushed red. She glared at him and stammered, "Jealous? Are you joking? "

Gu Zichen suddenly bent over and kissed her on the cheek. He smiled and said, "Xia Anran, I advise you to consider my suggestion. Don't we have each other's needs?"

He just needed to get married and take care of the family, and Xia Anran's body and appearance suited him perfectly.

Xia Anran's eyes widened, her eyes sparkling. She pushed away the man in a flurry of emotions, then left the company as if her soul had left her body.

When she reached the entrance of the company, she seemed to come back to her senses and let out a helpless sigh.

"What's wrong with me? The moment I see Gu Zichen, my brain seems to have crashed." Xia Anran shook her head and sighed.

Remembering that today was the day that Grandma had finished her operation and that the hospital had allowed families to visit patients, she bought fresh fruits and books that Grandma liked and took a taxi to the hospital.

"Grandmother!" When he walked to the door of the ward, he saw an old man sitting on the sickbed eating.

The operation had just ended. Although Grandmother's face was still pale, it was clear that she had regained her spirit.

She saw Lili standing in the doorway, beckoned with a kind face, and said, "Anran, you're here."

Xia Anran walked in front of Grandma, nodded with tears in her eyes, and said in a teary voice, "Grandma, I thought … I thought I'd never see you again. "

Grandma sighed. She was very clear about how she had been treated by her son.

"Anran, Grandma's getting on in age. Take care of yourself if anything happens to you in the future." Knowing what happened today, she frowned and said, "Xia's Group is the blood and sweat of your parents' life. You can't let those two unfilial children snatch it away just like that."

Xia Anran's clear eyes were also filled with anger, but she could only helplessly say, "Grandmother, the company is now under your control, what can we do?"

"Kid's nest!" When the old man heard this, he could not contain his anger and said, "These two people are simply blind to the law. Anran, you must snatch the company back."

Her mind, which had been muddled by pain a few days ago, finally became clear at this moment. She held her granddaughter's hand and sincerely warned:

"Anran, don't be afraid. I know someone will help you."

"Who?" Xia Anran looked at her grandmother in puzzlement.

If there was someone who could help him, why didn't he appear for so long?

The old man removed the necklace from around his neck and gently opened the exquisite pendant. On it was a picture of two young girls smiling like flowers.

"Anran, this is one of Grandmother's best friends when she was young. I'm sure she will help us if you take the necklace to her."

Xia Anran nodded excitedly, "Grandmother, do you know her number? Or where did she live? I can only go to her. "

"This …" Grandmother frowned, her expression becoming somewhat unfocused.

Xia Anran sighed helplessly. It seemed that her grandmother was confused again.

She looked at the pendant in her hand. The yellowish photo depicted her grandmother's youth. A moment later, Xia Anran put the necklace on her neck.

It was time for the doctor to check the room. Xia Anran saw that the nurses were busy beside her grandmother's bed, so she had no choice but to leave the ward.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the door, a pair of ink-black, deep eyes met his face. The man's handsome appearance and sharp facial features were like a tough, godly weapon that appeared in the corridor of the hospital.

"Why are you here?" Xia Anran asked in confusion as she looked at Gu Zichen's tall figure.

Gu Zichen raised his eyebrows: "This is a hospital, anyone can come."

As he said that, the man's reality fell onto Xia Anran's neck. The girl's delicate collarbone reflected a dazzling golden pendant.

Gu Zichen's eyes flashed a hint of contemplation. He seemed to have seen this pendant somewhere before.

He stretched out his hand and pulled the pendant off Xia Anran's neck. The girl looked at him with a bit of anger. "What are you doing?"

Gu Zichen opened the pendant and saw a yellowed old photo. In the photo, two young and beautiful girls were smiling like flowers.

"What are you looking at?" Xia Anran snatched the pendant back and put it back on her neck. She glared at Gu Zichen with her clear eyes.

This man was always so unreasonable.

Gu Zichen's thin lips slightly curled up as he said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the two of us were fated to meet."

"I don't have any fate with you." Xia Anran's face was slightly red as she said snappily.

She didn't have much confidence in her words. After all, she still needed to rely on the man's medical expenses to treat her grandmother's illness.

"Follow me." Gu Zichen's eyebrows twitched when he saw her like that. He pulled Xia Anran's hand and walked into the top-notch VIP ward.

All kinds of fragrant fruit baskets were placed in the ward, and the people who came to visit were all around the sickbed.

The one who was lying on the sickbed was a skinny and shriveled old lady. Even though she had suffered a lot from her illness, her face still showed her respect and grace.

Seeing Gu Zichen, the old lady's eyes lit up: "Grandson, you're here."

"Grandmother." Gu Zichen said respectfully and then went forward to hold her hands.

The old lady's gaze landed on behind her grandson. She saw Xia Anran standing there with her head lowered. Being stared at by so many people, she immediately felt extremely unnatural. She didn't even know where to put her hands and feet.

"Anran, hurry up and greet Grandma!" Gu Zichen frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Huh?" Xia Anran froze for a moment before she slowly raised her head. "Greetings, Grandmother."

Then, she blushed. What kind of person was she? How could she call Gu Zichen's grandma that?

When Xia Anran noticed the man's mischievous smile, she felt even more embarrassed.

"Zichen, she is …" At this moment, the old lady suddenly noticed the pendant around Xia Anran's neck, and her eyes became excited.

Gu Zichen nodded slightly. He held Xia Anran in his arms and opened the pendant. "Grandma, she is the granddaughter of a close friend of yours."

The old lady narrowed her eyes and carefully examined the pendant. After a moment, her eyes became slightly moist. She held Gu Zichen's and Xia Anran's hands together and said in satisfaction,

"I'm relieved like this too. Zichen, do you want to be together and get to know each other?"

"Grandma, I will." Gu Zichen spoke in a gentle voice, changing his usual indifferent expression.

When they walked out of the ward, Xia Anran could not help but feel dissatisfied. "You are lying, you big liar!"
