Ji Xiuran called Shao Sinian's number, but was hung up on.
Shao Sinian's behavior made Ji Xiuran even more sure that Zhao Ningchu was looking for him.
Thinking of this, Ji Xiuran's face turned extremely dark.
She actually went to find Shao Sinian.
Ji Xiuran dialed Su Yang's phone: "Help me check where Shao Sinian lives now?"
More than ten minutes later, Ji Xiuran received the address sent by Su Yang.
He picked up his coat and went out without eating breakfast.
Xiangjiang Garden
Zhao Ningchu came to Shao Sinian early in the morning, feeling very uneasy.
What would happen if Ji Xiuran woke up and found that he was missing?
Will you find yourself?
But it was obviously him who made his own go away.
"Xiaochu~ Your friend is here!" Shao Snian's voice sounded at the door.
Zhao Ningchu came to her senses and quickly got up to open the door.
When Gu Ran saw Zhao Ningchu, she gave her a big hug: "Ah Chu, you simply...understand my thoughts so well."
When she received a call from Shao Sinian in the morning, she thought, are all liars these days so powerful? She knew who her idol was, so she deceived herself.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the real Shao Sinian.
Shao Sinian looked at the two people hugging each other, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Can we go out for breakfast now?"
Zhao Ningchu's cheeks were slightly red and she nodded sheepishly.
Dining room
"Xiaochu, have you thought about it?"
Shao Sinian sat opposite Zhao Ningchu and asked while eating breakfast.
"I……"
Zhao Ningchu hesitated for a moment, then said: "How is Shaoxing?"
"Already caught."
Zhao Ning was a little surprised when he heard this: "So fast?"
"Even if he is caught, Shaoxing cannot be dealt with like this. He has filed an appeal, so I have to go back to City S and confront him in court."
"What's the appeal?"
"Of course I don't want to go to jail obediently, so have you thought about it? Come with me?"
"When are you going to leave?"
"Just these two days!"
"So fast?"
"Shaoxing's affairs have not been finalized at all, and I feel uneasy every day."
Zhao Ningchu looked at the breakfast in front of her and didn't know what to do for a moment.
If Ji Xiuran knew that she was going to the Shao family, he would definitely make a fuss. What's more, she really didn't want to go to this kind of deep gate compound anymore, she just wanted to find a small place to live in peace with her children.
What did Zhao Ningchu want to say? Shao Sinian's phone rang. He glanced at the note and hung up the phone without leaving a trace.
But Zhao Ningchu had already seen the caller ID.
"Ji Xiuran is looking for you?"
Shao Sinian raised his eyes and looked at her: "I'm not looking for me, I'm looking for you!"
"How could he..."
Having said this, Zhao Ningchu fell silent.
Also, the only person she can find now is Shao Sinian, so it's not surprising that Ji Xiuran can contact Shao Sinian as soon as possible.
"Xiao Chu, Ji Xiuran should be here soon. As long as you nod, he won't be able to take you away at all?"
Zhao Ningchu smiled: "Don't worry, Ji Xiuran won't do it. He has already told me not to appear in front of him.
What's more, if I have to go out later for something, he can't find it even if I look for it."
Shao Sinian frowned slightly: "Where are you going?"
"Yucheng, go do something."
"Shall I accompany you?"
Zhao Ningchu shook his head: "No need, my friend just goes with me."
Gu Ran, who had been immersed in eating, was called upon. She quickly put down the chopsticks in her hand and looked at Shao Sinian: "Idol, don't worry, I will just go with A Chu. I will take good care of her."
Shao Sinian frowned slightly: "Now that Shaoxing's gang members are still there, I'm worried..."
"Go out low-key, it'll be fine, don't worry!"
Seeing Zhao Ningchu's persistence, Shao Sinian said nothing more.

Yucheng Hospital
Zhao Ningchu was lying on the color ultrasound bed, and the doctor next to her was examining her.
"Is there still bleeding?" the doctor asked.
Zhao Ningchu shook his head: "No more."
"That's good. The child is developing very well. Do you need to take folic acid every day?"
“I’ve been a little busy lately, so I eat intermittently.”
When the doctor heard this, he said sternly: "How can it be done intermittently? You need to take folic acid every day. I started taking it before I was preparing for pregnancy."
"I see."
"Don't underestimate these things, or you will regret it later."
Gu Ran on the side was confused when she heard this: "Doctor, what disease does this folic acid treat?"
"It is to prevent deformities in children. Now the children seem to be developing quite normally, but they cannot be ignored."
"Then when will you come for your next prenatal check-up?"
Normally, prenatal check-ups are done every four weeks, but Zhao Ningchu's condition is that of a high-risk mother, so she is asked to come here once every two weeks.
"You don't bleed anymore. Let's recover for four weeks. When the fetus is about five months old, let's do an abortion together."
The doctor hummed, took out the color Doppler ultrasound sheet, and handed it to Zhao Ningchu: "Take good care, the child will develop smaller."
"Well, I understand."
The two walked out of the color ultrasound room. Gu Ran reached for the list in Zhao Ningchu's hand and studied it carefully: "Achu, is this your baby?"
She pointed to the graphic above.
Zhao Ningchu looked at the embryo that had already taken shape, with a soft smile on his face.
She reached out and touched her belly.
Life is really wonderful, there is actually a little life in it.
"Yes, my baby!"
"Ah Chu, I heard that raising children is very hard. And in your current situation, are you really not going to tell Ji Xiuran?"
Zhao Ningchu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head slightly: "I can raise it myself!"
There was a gap between her and Ji Xiuran. Even if Ji Xiuran lowered his status and accepted the child, there was no way they would go back.
"Anyway, prepare yourself. This is a child, not a kitten or puppy!"
"Oh, I know it myself!" After saying that, he reached for the color Doppler ultrasound sheet in Gu Ran's hand.
Gu Ran's eyes fell on the back of her hand and she exclaimed, "What's wrong with your hand?"
Zhao Ningchu was stunned for a moment and glanced at the blisters on the back of her hands: "I was accidentally burned."
"when?"
"It was just last night. It's okay. I'll be fine in a few days."
Seeing Zhao Ningchu's uncaring look, Gu Ran felt extremely uncomfortable and said with red eyes: "You are such a big person, why don't you know how to take care of yourself? How will you take care of the baby then?"
"Okay, I'm fine."
"Let's go, since everyone has come to the hospital, let's go find a doctor!"
After saying that, he pulled Zhao Ningchu towards the dermatology department.

On the other side, Ji Xiuran went to the villa where Shao Sinian lived based on Su Yangfa's address and rang the doorbell for a long time before footsteps could be heard inside.
As soon as the door opened, a middle-aged woman looked at Ji Xiuran: "Sir, who are you looking for?"
Ji Xiuran glanced inside and said calmly: "Is Shao Sinian here?"
The other party was stunned for half a second, then nodded: "Yes, yes, are you Mr. Shao's friend?"
Ji Xiuran hummed and then walked into the house.
The middle-aged woman poured a cup of tea for Ji Xiuran and then said, "Wait a moment, I'll call Mr. Shao over."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shao Sinian's voice came from upstairs: "Who is looking for me, Zhang Ma?"
"Mr. Shao, it's your friend here."
"Wait a moment, I'll be down soon."
Within a few minutes, Shao Sinian came down the stairs.
At this moment, he had obviously just taken a shower, his hair was still wet and dripping with water, and he was only wrapped in a bath towel. His collar was wide open, exposing a large amount of muscles on his chest.
Ji Xiuran frowned slightly: "Is this what you wear at home?"
Shao Sinian looked confused: "Say, Mr. Ji, you came to my house just to talk to me about this? If so, isn't that a bit too lenient?"
Ji Xiuran looked away and said with a cold face: "Where is Zhao Ningchu?"
"What's wrong with Xiaochu? Did you have a fight?"
"Stop pretending to be stupid and call her out."
"What am I pretending to be?"
At this point, he suddenly said: "Oh, do you think I hid Xiaochu?"
Ji Xiuran ignored him and walked directly past him towards the second floor.
Shao Sinian saw this and hurriedly followed him: "Ji Xiuran, what do you want to do? This is my home. Isn't it a little rude for you to do this?"
Ji Xiuran ignored Shao Sinian's presence and went straight to the bedroom and bathroom on the second floor.
No one is here?
He turned around and went to the second bedroom and study room.
Still nothing!
"I told you, Xiaochu is not here with me, why don't you believe me?"
Ji Xiuran ignored him and went straight to the dining room and kitchen when he came downstairs. After seeing that there was no one there, he went to the guest room.
"Shao Sinian, where did you hide her?"
Ji Xiuran spoke with a cold face.
Shao Sinian's face darkened: "Mr. Ji, what are you talking about?"
"Hand over my wife, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Shao Sinian said with a provocative look on his face: "Haha, madam? If I remember correctly, you are both divorced, including your ex-wife."
Ji Xiuran's face was terrifyingly gloomy, but Shao Sinian seemed not to notice and continued to speak: "Xiao Chu promised me that he would go back with me to inherit the family business. Please stop harming her."
Ji Xiuran squinted his eyes and stared at him, his gaze dangerous and cold.
"Go back with you? Shao Sinian, don't think that I don't know the little thoughts in your heart."
When Shao Sinian heard this, his expression changed slightly, but he quickly calmed down.
"Xiaochu is the heir to the Shao family. If he doesn't go back with me, will he get entangled with you?"
"You are trying to use her as a shield. Don't think that I don't know about the Shao family's affairs. You can never take away my Ji Xiuran."
After saying that, he snorted coldly and left the place where Shao Snian lived.
Shao Sinian stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the direction Ji Xiuran left.
The expression on his face gradually turned gloomy, and then a sneer appeared.
"So what if I know, there is nothing I, Shao Sinian, want to do that I can't do."
Ji Xiuran came out of the place where Shao Sinian lived and sat in the car for a while. He became irritated when he thought that Zhao Ningchu might really leave.
Suddenly, the cell phone next to him rang. Ji Xiuran thought it was Zhao Ningchu and quickly picked up the phone and looked at it.
I didn't expect it to be Su Yang.
He answered the phone with a cold face: "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Ji, you didn't come to the company. Is the mistake meeting this morning canceled or not?"
"No, I'll be at the company right away."
Ji's Group
conference room.
All the senior executives found that something was not right about their boss's aura today.
From the moment Ji Xiuran entered the conference room, there was a depressing atmosphere in the conference room.
Everyone felt short of breath and felt like they were suffocating.
Especially when they saw Ji Xiuran's gloomy facial expression, everyone was sitting upright, not daring to make a sound.
What's going on?
The turnover for this quarter has clearly been exceeded, so why is my boss still frowning and looking unhappy?
Originally this was a commendation meeting, but now it's fine. Ji Xiuran didn't say a word during the entire meeting, just sitting there with an indifferent expression.
Su Yang on the side was also anxious and reminded in a low voice: "Mr. Ji, this is a commendation meeting for senior management. Look..."
Before he finished speaking, Ji Xiuran interrupted with a cold face: "Recognition? What? You all think you did a good job?"
Everyone lowered their eyes and did not dare to say a word.
I thought to myself: Okay, it’s already overfulfilled, so why not?
But seeing their boss so angry, no one dared to say anything.
When the meeting ended, Ji Xiuran left the meeting room first, while Su Yang stayed to pack up the things prepared for the meeting.
At this time, a department manager came over.
"Assistant Su, what's going on? Didn't you say this is a commendation meeting? How could..."
"Yeah, what's going on with Mr. Ji? I'm still thinking about overachieving this performance, and want to talk to Mr. Ji about the shares?"
"What's going on with Mr. Ji? Is there any big trend in the company now?"
Everyone surrounded Su Yang, hoping to find out something from him?
But Su Yang also looked confused. He also expected to get some bonuses at this commendation meeting, but now it seems that it is good not to deduct wages.
"Managers, I haven't received any news from here that there are changes in the company, so don't worry, just go and do your work. As for the commendation meeting, Mr. Ji may have his own ideas. When there is news, he will be the first to do so.
I’ll let everyone know when it’s time.”
After saying that, he didn't want to get entangled with these people anymore, so he quickly left the conference room and walked towards Ji Xiuran's office.
On the way, he met Xia Chengan who came to deliver the project proposal. Xia Chengan stopped Su Yang.
"Assistant Su Te, what's wrong with my uncle today? He doesn't even respond to me when I call him?"
Su Yang reached out and pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose: "I don't know about this either."
"Okay, then I'll send him the documents."
When Su Yang saw this, he quickly stopped him.
"Cheng'an, you'd better go later."
Xia Chengan was confused: "Why?"
"Mr. Ji seems to be in a bad mood today. You'd better not go, lest you get caught in the crossfire."
'What happened to him? My uncle is here?'
Su Yang thought for a while and guessed: "Maybe it has something to do with my wife!"
"Zhao Ningchu? Aren't they divorced? What happened?"
"I don't know the details about this. Why don't you send it to me in the afternoon?"
Xia Chengan thought for a while and felt that Su Yang was right. If his uncle had a hot temper and went over by himself, wouldn't he become a punching bag?
"Okay then, I'll send it over in the afternoon."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Su Yang sighed silently and came to Ji Xiuran's office.
He reached out and knocked on the door.
"Mr. Ji..."
"Enter."
"Mr. Ji, this is the information compiled at the meeting just now!"
"Leave it alone!"
After Su Yang placed the documents on Ji Xiuran's desk, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Suddenly, Ji Xiuran's cold voice came from behind: "Su Yang~"
Su Yang froze and said with some anxiety: "Mr. Ji, do you have anything else to do?"
'Find me someone, no matter how much it costs, find me someone!'
