C16 Back to the Old Residence

"Hello, Miss Xu. We're already waiting for Jiao Jiao in her room."

"Alright, then why don't we start earlier and let Miss Jiao start on other tasks as soon as possible?"

The interview was done very quickly. Because he was a rookie, he was particularly cooperative during the interview.

"Thank you for your cooperation today, then why don't we meet in the future if we have any questions?"

"Alright, I'll send you off."

The moment Xu Lan and her colleague walked out of the room, they heard the door to the room next door ring. Xu Lan had never thought that the one who walked out of the room was actually Lu Liangchen, and that there was a woman beside him.

As if sensing that someone was looking at him, Lu Liangchen turned around and directly met Xu Lan's eyes. A look of distress flashed across his face.

Seeing the woman who was leaning on Lu Liangchen, Xu Lan felt as if her heart had been struck by something, and she felt unspeakably uncomfortable.

However, Lu Liangchen didn't plan to leave. He just stood there and looked at them.

"Yi, isn't that the imperial court's Miss Xu? CEO Lu, wait a minute, I'll go say hello. "

"You know her? Then why don't we go together? "

Xu Lan didn't know what to do when she saw Lu Liangchen bringing that woman to them.

"Hello, Miss Xu. Do you still remember me? I was the one who filmed the rice grains with you before."

Hearing the other party introducing himself, Xu Lan suddenly remembered something. However, looking at this fashionable dressed woman in front of her, she didn't seem to be on the same side as the well-behaved woman from before.

"Hello, Miss Mi."

Xu Lan just said goodbye and prepared to leave.

"CEO Lu, you don't know how great this Miss Xu is. In the past, she even saved me when I was working."

"Oh, is that so? Looks like there are still good employees in the imperial court."

"Yeah, but no matter how good it is, it's not as good as Director Lu's Wind Chasing, right?"

As the two of them walked further and further away, their discussions reached Xu Lan's ears. She only gave a wry smile.

From the beginning to the end, Lu Liangchen had always treated him as a stranger. He looked at him with a strange gaze and used a strange tone to discuss with others about himself.

Although he didn't want others to know about his relationship with Lu Liangchen, being ignored like this made him feel extremely miserable.

Xu Lan froze on the spot, watching as they walked away. After a long time, Little Wang called out to her before she could react.

"Lan jie, what's wrong?" I took a lot of photos of such a good piece of information. "

Looking at Little Wang's complacent look from taking a picture of Lu Liangchen, the corner of Xu Lan's mouth couldn't help but curl up into a wry smile.

"You'd better delete the photo, or I won't be able to protect you."

"Why? We've been waiting for a photo shoot all this time, and now that we've finally got one that's ready, why should we delete it? "

Little Wang looked at Xu Lan in disbelief, feeling that today's Xu Lan was a little strange.

"Don't forget that right now, the imperial court is cooperating with Chasing Wind. Do you think it's appropriate for you to use the boss of Chasing Wind Chasing to earn money for yourself?"

Lu Liangchen must have also thought of this, which was why he didn't stop Little Wang and the others from taking their photos. Furthermore, he was certain that he would also stop them.

This was Lu Liangchen, who would always eat himself to death. Xu Lan shook her head helplessly as she thought of this, then hurried downstairs.

When Little Wang heard Xu Lan's words, she finally reacted and her face instantly fell.

He originally thought that he had gotten some important news today, but in the end, it all came to nothing.

On the way back to the company, Xu Feng sat in the car without saying anything. After a while, the phone suddenly rang, he took it out and saw that it was from Shen Rong.

"Mom, what's wrong? You want me to go back to my old home? Fine, I'll be back soon after work."

After hanging up, Xu Lan told Little Wang and the rest before she got off the car.

In the old house.

"Mom, if you call your sister-in-law back like this, Brother Liang Chen will probably be angry."

Liu Shu rubbed Shen Rong's shoulder as he whispered into his ear.

"She's my daughter-in-law. I told her to go home, not to eat her. Good fortune is not that petty."

Mentioning Xu Lan, Shen Rong's face did not look good. His face that was well-maintained had some anger on it.

Xu Lan originally thought that Shen Rong wanted her to return to her old home because she hadn't been there for a long time. She even specially bought the snacks that Shen Rong liked.

However, he didn't expect to see Shen Rong sitting on the sofa beside Liu Shu with a darkened face.

"Mom, why did you call me back?"

Xu Lan gave the item to the nanny and carefully walked in.

"Xu Lan, come sit here. I have something to ask you."

Seeing Xu Lan holding something with a smile on her face, Shen Rong did not have the mood to flare up, so he made Xu Lan sit down.

"What's the matter, Mom?"

"I heard from Little Shu that you quarreled with Liang Chen. You left home without saying a word and went on a business trip. Plus, you were drunk. It was another man who sent you home in the middle of the night."

Shen Rong asked every single question without any hesitation and casually betrayed Liu Shu.

When Liu Shu heard Shen Rong mentioning him directly, he couldn't help cursing Shen Rong's stupidity in his heart.

Hearing Shen Rong's question, Xu Lan unconsciously looked at Liu Shu and smiled faintly.

Mom, how could a husband and wife not argue? It's a matter of a couple arguing with each other, and we've already made up. This business trip is for me, and as for me running away from home, it's because I'm busy traveling so I didn't have the time to say it.

"As for me being sent home drunk by another man, that's not true. It's not like you don't know that I don't usually drink, much less get drunk."

After hearing Xu Lan's explanation, Shen Rong nodded his head.

That's right, how could there be a husband and wife who didn't quarrel? They thought of themselves and their husbands, quarrelling every day after marriage.

"Then why did Little Shu say that you were sent home by another man?"

"When I got off work that day, there was a problem with the elevator in the company, trapping me in it. I had dark phobia so I fainted because my boss sent me back. Little Shu couldn't understand the situation, so I might have made a mistake."

After saying so, she intentionally looked at Liu Shu, her eyes full of questions, as if she was really asking.

Receiving Xu Lan's gaze, Liu Shu was shocked. He then looked at Shen Rong with tears in his eyes.

"Godmother, I must have made a mistake. Sorry, sister-in-law, I didn't do it on purpose. I was just worried about you and Brother Liangchen, I …"

As she said this, she choked with sobs. Seeing Liu Shu like this, Shen Rong quickly stood up to coax her.

"It's fine. Little Shu is still young and has not gotten married yet. It's inevitable that Little Shu doesn't understand the relationship between husband and wife."

Since you won't let me enjoy it, I won't let you either, Xu Lan thought.

Sure enough, upon hearing Xu Lan's words, Liu Shu's expression turned even uglier.

Leaving the old mansion, Xu Lan walked along the road by herself. Looking at the brightly lit city, she suddenly didn't know where she should go.

The reason he had married Lu Liangchen was so that he could have a home to settle in. But now, this home was becoming more and more meaningless.

"Sister, sister, can you buy one of my flowers? The last few are sold and I can go home."

A little girl around seven or eight years old blocked Xu Lan's way. Looking at the flowers in her hands, Xu Lan took out all the money in her pocket without a second thought.

"Big sister Hua wants them all, so you should treat the rest of the money as a knot. Hurry and go home."

Receiving the money, the little girl looked at Xu Lan in embarrassment, bowed deeply, and ran away happily.

Looking at the little girl's happy expression, Xu Lan couldn't help but think back to her days in the orphanage. At that time, as long as others were a bit darker, they could be happy for a long time.

Although he was worried about what he would do next every day, he was happy every day.

Ever since he left the orphanage, he hadn't been happy for a long time.

Looking at the numerous stars in the sky, Xu Feng felt really lost. Then, she sat by the side of the road in a daze for a month.

"Isn't that your ladyship, sir? Why is she sitting alone? "

As Xiao Zhang drove, he saw Xu Lan sitting blankly by the roadside with a single glance and then looked towards the back of the car.

Hearing Xiao Zhang's words, Lu Liangchen also looked outside the car. Seeing Xu Lan sitting there alone, looking like a abandoned child, Lu Liangchen couldn't help but frown.

"Let's go take a look."
