They both spoke at the same time, one was surprised and the other was pleasantly surprised.
Xia Chengan glared at Gu Ran fiercely: "Congratulations to your sister."
Zhao Ningchu said helplessly: "Okay, stop arguing, sit down and eat!"
Xia Chengan hesitated for a while, then sat next to Zhao Ningchu.
Soon, the waiter brought the seafood set she ordered.
Seeing this, Gu Ran couldn't help but frown slightly, and said with some worry: "Ah Chu, I heard that seafood is cold and cannot be eaten!"
"Don't worry, I know what's going on. By the way, do you want some beer?"
Xia Chengan refused directly.
“Don’t drink while driving!”
Gu Ran answered: "Hey, I can't tell you know this?"
After saying that, he leaned into Zhao Ningchu's ear and whispered: "Ah Chu, how do you know this person? He is the blind date arranged by my family."
"He is Ji Xiuran's nephew!"
When Gu Ran heard this, he was stunned for two seconds, and then laughed out loud, gloating to Xia Chengan: "My nephew, call me aunt!"
Xia Chengan's face could not be darker.
This damn seniority.
He replied venomously: "Sure enough, I have a certain understanding of my old age."
When Gu Ran heard this, she immediately became furious.
"Who do you think is old?"
"Whoever answers the call, let's talk!"
Gu Ran was so angry that her teeth itched: "You..."
Zhao Ningchu is now two older than one. She just wants to find a place to have a good meal and say goodbye properly. She is not here to listen to the two of them arguing.
"Okay, can we eat quietly? Maybe we won't have the chance in the future."
When the two of them heard this, their eyes fell on Zhao Ningchu at the same time.
"Why no chance?"
"I plan to leave Yanjing."
Now it was the two people's turn to be shocked.
"What? You want to leave?" Gu Ran looked shocked.
Zhao Ningchu nodded: "Yes, leave!"
"Achu, can you not leave?"
After saying that, he reached out and took Zhao Ningchu's wrist.
"No, I have to go."
In fact, Gu Ran also knew why Zhao Ningchu left. She was reluctant to leave, but she had to agree.
Xia Chengan, who had been silent all this time, said calmly: "Why do you want to leave?"
It was okay not to ask, but when asked, Gu Ran was completely furious.
"Why? You have the nerve to ask? Why don't you ask your uncle."
Xia Chengan ignored Gu Ran and looked at Zhao Ningchu intently: "Is it because you divorced my uncle?"
Zhao Ningchu smiled: "If I don't leave, how can I make room for others? After all, everyone has been brought home."
Xia Chengan was a little shocked: "My uncle took Xia Jinyan back?"
Zhao Ningchu looked at Xia Chengan with some surprise: "Huh? Do you know him?"
After saying that, something suddenly occurred to him and he stared straight at Xia Chengan: "Xia Jinyan is not your relative, is she?"
Don't be so bloody?
Xia Chengan nodded: "That's right, but I'm not very familiar with her."
Zhao Ningchu smiled: "This world is really small. Forget it, let's not talk about it. Eat, the seafood here tastes very good."
"Achu, where is the company after you left?"
"I have my own plans."
That night, Gu Ran drank a lot of wine alone and said it was time to see Zhao Ningchu off.
Looking at the drunk girl who was unconscious, Zhao Ningchu hesitated for a while, then whispered into Gu Ran's ear: "Do you still want someone to take you home?"
Gu Ran lay directly on the table, drunk and unconscious.
Xia Chengan, who was sitting aside, said with a look of disgust on his face: "How come you have such a friend?"
Zhao Ningchu rolled her eyes at him: "What? You also look down on my friend?"
"I, I'm not!"
"Tch, none of you Ji family members are good."
"My surname is not Ji!"
"That counts as half."
Suddenly, the two fell silent.
Xia Chengan looked at him: "On the way to the old house last night, were you doing it because of Xia Jinyan?"
"It doesn't matter anymore, can you take us home?"
Xia Chengan nodded, stood up, helped Gu Ran up, and walked towards his sports car.
Soon, the two were sent downstairs to the apartment.
Zhao Ningchu unbuckled his seat belt, said thank you and got out of the car.
Xia Chengan stopped her and said, "Um, do you have to leave?"
Zhao Ningchu thought for a while and said truthfully: "It's possible that I won't leave."
"If, I say if, you don't leave, let's be friends!"
Zhao Ningchu looked at the young man in front of him and suddenly felt a little funny.
"Even if I leave, we are still friends, and we will be equals from now on!"
After saying that, he opened the back seat door and pulled Gu Ran out of the car.
"Ran, we've reached home!"
Seeing that Gu Ran couldn't stand, Xia Chengan quickly got out of the car and grabbed her: "I'll take you up."
Zhao Ningchu nodded: "Let's go then!"
Along the way, Gu Ran kept shouting "little brother, handsome brother."
This made Zhao Ningchu extremely embarrassed: "She was drunk, but she is actually very nice. I didn't know that your blind date was her before."
Xia Chengan said with disdain: "Just her? Okay?"
Zhao Ningchu looked at the drunk and disheveled girl with a slight twitch in her mouth.
"Well, she was just drunk today, really."
"Come on, don't try to match us up, I don't like her!"
'Which one do you like?'
Xia Chengan looked at her without saying anything.
After they were sent to the room, Xia Chengan said before leaving: "The person I like, it's impossible for us to be together, she's married!"
After saying that, Zhao Ningchu left with a confused look on his face.
Xia Chengan got into the car and looked through the car window in the direction of Zhao Ningchu's apartment. He waited until the lights in the apartment were turned off before he drove away.
*
The next morning, Xia Chengan arrived at Yulongyuan early. When Uncle Chen opened the door for him and saw Xia Chengan, he was a little surprised.
"Master Ciao, why are you here?"
"I'm looking for my uncle!"
After saying that, he walked into the house. When he saw Xia Jinyan sitting in the living room, he frowned slightly. He ignored Xia Jinyan's presence and said to Uncle Chen: "Uncle Chen, where is my uncle?"
?”
"Where is he in the study? I'll ask him to come down."
"No need, I'll just go find him!"
When passing Xia Jinyan, Xia Jinyan called him, but Xia Chengan ignored her.
He came to the study, reached out and knocked on the door: "Uncle, it's me!"
"Come in!"
Xia Chengan pushed the door open and saw Ji Xiuran sitting in front of the computer, wondering what he was busy with?
"looking for me?"
"Why is she at your house?"
Ji Xiuran raised his eyes and looked at him: "Is this why you came here?"
Xia Chengan didn't say anything, and Ji Xiuran continued: "She just returned to China and hasn't found a suitable place to live yet!"
"So you brought someone home? Uncle, you are already married, and you bring another woman home. What will my little aunt think?"
Xia Chengan's tone was a little bad, even a little aggressive!
"Did she talk to you?"
Xia Chengan was stunned: "She came to me, but she didn't come to me to talk to her. She said you were divorced!"
"Nothing!"
"What do you mean there is nothing? You are not divorced?"
"No."
"Then why did she..."
Ji Xiuran interrupted Xia Chengan's words: "Don't worry, we can't leave!"
Xia Chengan raised his eyes and looked at him: "Uncle, how do you know we can't leave? You are so confident!"
"She has no money!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the cell phone on Ji Xiuran's desk rang. Xia Chengan glanced at it and after seeing the note, his pupils shrank slightly.
It's Zhao Ningchu calling!
Ji Xiuran just answered the phone in front of him.
"What's up?"
"I'm at the Civil Affairs Bureau now, when will you come over!"
Zhao Ningchu's cold voice came from the other side of the phone.
Ji Xiuran frowned slightly and said sarcastically: "You paid back the 20 million?"
"I will return it to you. I'll come here first and let's get the certificate!"
"When did the money arrive, when did you get the certificate, and when you got married, your family was not the one who collected the money first, right?"
Xia Chengjing stood aside quietly. After hearing what his uncle said, he suddenly thought of what Zhao Ningchu said last night.
Talking about making room for others, Xia Chengan felt a little sorry for this little aunt.
Leave, leave, forget it.
Why is he here to advise me?
"Uncle, otherwise you should go and get the certificate."
Ji Xiuran frowned and said with an unhappy look on his face: "What did you say?"
"Look, you have brought someone home. If you don't get a divorce, you will be guilty of bigamy."
"Nonsense!"
"Uncle, what I said is true. Although I don't know why your 20 million is tied up, but you are not short of that little money, right? Why bother others?
If you don't like my little aunt, then stop pestering her. She keeps getting hurt when she follows you, and I can't stand you anymore."
Ji Xiuran heard this and looked at Xia Chengan: "Do you know how she got injured?"
"You know, if she hadn't met me that night, she would have died!"
"what happened?"
'That night my grandmother asked me to go back. When I went there, I met my little aunt on the way. She met a bad guy and started a fight with him. The other guy had a dagger in his hand and almost cut her neck. She grabbed the guy with her hand.
dagger, so the hand was injured.
The doctor said she should be hospitalized. As soon as I left yesterday afternoon, she was discharged from the hospital. I thought she was going there, but it turned out that she was seeking a divorce from you.'
Ji Xiuran became upset after hearing this.
She couldn't imagine what would happen if something happened that night!
Thinking of this, Ji Xiuran felt a little nervous.
Xia Chengan saw his uncle in a daze and waved his hand in front of him: "Uncle~"
Ji Xiuran came to his senses, picked up the phone and went out without saying a word.
Xia Chengan was confused when he heard the door closing, and then hurriedly chased him out.
"Uncle, why are you going?"
When he went downstairs, Ji Xiuran had already gone out.
When Xia Chengan saw Xia Jinyan, he deliberately said: "I know you are worried about your little aunt. Even if you are worried, you don't have to be so panicked. My little aunt is fine, just a little cold~
Hey, uncle, wait for me~"
Sure enough, after Xia Jinyan heard Xia Chengan's words, she held her hands tightly, her fingertips sank into her palms, but she felt no pain.
"Cheng'an, what did you say?"
She spoke to Xia Chengan's back.
Xia Chengan turned to look at her and said casually: "Oh, my aunt has a cold. When my uncle found out, he was so distressed that he wanted to see her."
After saying that, he left directly.
Ji Xiuran sat in the car and dialed Zhao Ningchu's number.
At this moment, Zhao Ningchu was sitting in a taxi. The phone rang within two minutes of driving.
When she saw it was Ji Xiuran calling, she became angry.
"What's up?"
"Where are you now? I'll look for you!"
When Zhao Ningchu heard this, he quickly asked the master to stop on the roadside, and then told Ji Xiuran that he was still at the Civil Affairs Bureau and asked him to come over quickly!
