The ward was filled with sobs and cries that could almost lift the ceiling of the ward. Everyone shed tears to one degree or another. As for how much sincerity there was in these tears, no one knew.
Cheng Xiran was not used to this kind of situation, so he quietly left the ward, found a quiet corner to sit down, took out his mobile phone and called Zhang Qi to arrange the subsequent work, and then called Ye Lancheng to arrange the work.
Jiangcheng told him the situation here.
"The people I sent are in Jiangcheng now. I'll give you the contact information and leave it to you for dispatch. I'll ask Xiao Shi to go over and protect you."
Ye Lancheng was not very relieved that Cheng Xiran would participate in the Chu family's fight so rashly.
"There's no need to ask Brother Shi to come over, I still want to spend time with my wife and children.
I don’t plan to reveal my identity, don’t worry, I will protect myself.”
Cheng Xiran had already made up his mind and planned to serve as a secret strategist for Chu Shang, so as not to let the Chu family get too interested in him.
It is easier to win the battle if the enemy is in the light and we are in the dark.
"You just need to understand. I will send someone to protect you secretly. You are not allowed to refuse."
Ye Lancheng said without hesitation.
"Know it."
Cheng Xiran obediently agreed to this arrangement.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Lancheng called Lao Jiu over and asked him to arrange for two bodyguards to go to Jiangcheng to protect Cheng Xiran secretly.
Lao Jiu received the order and went to make arrangements.
Jiangcheng, hospital.
After Cheng Xiran hung up the phone, she was about to take out her tablet to check her mailbox. A woman in high heels walked up to her and asked condescendingly: "Who are you?"
Cheng Xiran raised his head slightly and saw the woman's face clearly. This was Chu Shang's half-sister Chu Jing. She was the same age as her and was already married. Her husband was the son of the boss of a real estate company in Jiangcheng. It was considered a business marriage.
Facing Chu Jing's arrogance, Cheng Xiran showed a silly and sweet smile: "Beauty, shouldn't you tell yourself your family name before asking others who they are?"
Chu Jing didn't expect that she would ask her back. She was stunned for a moment and then said: "I am Chu Shang's sister."
"You are Chu Jing. I heard Chu Shang told you that you can just call me sister-in-law. I am Chu Shang's girlfriend."
Cheng Xiran stretched out his hand in a very familiar manner: "It's the first time we meet. I was in such a hurry that I didn't prepare a gift. I'll make up for it next time."
Chu Jing:!!Chu Jing almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Who are you, sister-in-law? You treat yourself too much. Even if she is Chu Shang’s wife, she doesn’t even bother to call her sister-in-law, let alone just his girlfriend.
Wait! When did Chu Shang have a girlfriend?
"Are you Chu Shang's girlfriend?"
Chu Jing was incredible.
"yes."
Cheng Xiran tilted his head, counted on his fingers, and then held out three fingers: "It's been three days. Today is the fourth day of our relationship."
Chu Jing twitched the corner of her mouth. Her first reaction was that she felt that this woman was a bit stupid, and she was afraid that she was lacking a brain.
"Are you colleagues with Chu Shang?"
Chu Jing began to talk without leaving a trace.
"You are so smart, you have guessed all this.
But I’m in the logistics team and Chu Shang is in the research and development team, so I’m not as good as him.”
Cheng Xiran showed an expression like a little fan girl.
Chu Jing laughed disdainfully in her heart, wondering if there was any need to guess. She was just as lacking as Chu Shang. She thought the woman Chu Shang brought back was from someone else. She really looked up to her.
"My father just passed away. Our whole family is very sad. You came at the wrong time. It's best to leave as soon as possible."
Chu Jing doesn't like Chu Shang, so she naturally doesn't have a good attitude towards his girlfriend.
"Chu Shang brought me back to mourn my uncle."
Cheng Xiran looked puzzled as to "Why should I leave?"
"you!"
Chu Jing said angrily: "You wish my father would die, right? Chu Shang is not filial, and he wants to find a girlfriend to come back to make my father angry. He deliberately wants his father to die in peace."
"I do not have to die."
Cheng Xiran said seriously: "I'm very sad."
"Are you sad?
Do you think I am blind? You look a little sad. You don't know how to gloat in your heart. You think that if your father dies and the property belongs to Chu Shang, you can fly up the branches and become a phoenix, right? Go ahead and dream, Dad.
Not a penny was left for Chu merchants."
Chu Jing said loudly.
Her voice was too loud, which attracted the attention of others. People who didn't know the inside story looked at Cheng Xiran, as if Cheng Xiran was some heinous person.
A normal girl would have panicked if she was slapped with such a big label like Chu Jing. Maybe a person with poor psychological quality would cry if someone looks at her in such a strange way.
But Cheng Xiran is not an ordinary girl. Faced with Chu Jing's preemptive strike, she acted very calmly and said lightly: "Uncle Chu and I have never met each other, let alone have any blood relationship. He passed away, and I can't cry.
It's normal. Can you cry for someone who has nothing to do with you?
But you are Uncle Chu’s daughter. He and you have been raised by each other. You two have a deep father-daughter relationship. You said you were sad, but I didn’t see that you looked like you had cried. You didn’t even put on makeup.
Woolen cloth."
Chu Jing's face was on fire at Cheng Xiran's light counterattack. She quickly glanced at the other people in the corridor, and felt even more guilty when she saw that all the eyes originally staring at Cheng Xiran were focused on her.
"You're talking nonsense."
Chu Jing stamped her feet angrily: "I am more sad than anyone else that my father is gone. What do you, an outsider, know?"
She cried as much as she could, and tears really came out of her eyes.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I misunderstood you. It looks like you just finished applying makeup."
Cheng Xiran saw Chu Jing crying and immediately apologized to her.
Chu Jing:...Chu Jing cried more sincerely now. What does it mean to have just finished applying makeup? Isn’t it getting darker and darker as your makeup is applied? Who just died and her father went to apply makeup after crying? What’s wrong with that?
Unfilial.
"Stop crying. I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have told you without knowing the facts. Just wipe your face. Your makeup will be stained by crying later."
Cheng Xiran was very apologetic and handed her a tissue, and kindly reminded her not to cry and ruin her makeup.
"Go away!"
Chu Jing angrily knocked the tissue out of Cheng Xiran's hand and walked away angrily on her high heels.
Cheng Xiran stared at her back for a few seconds, and then bent down to pick up the tissue bag on the ground. A sneer appeared on the corner of his lips. Who gave her the courage to play with herself even if she was just a daoxing?
Cheng Xiran directly gave Chu Jing a cross in his heart. This was an uncompetitive opponent. Cheng Xiran could crush her with one finger.
"Are you OK?"
As soon as Cheng Xiran picked up the tissue bag and sat back on the chair, Chu Shang hurried over.
"What can happen to me?"
Cheng Xiran asked back.
Chu Shang looked her up and down, and was relieved when he saw that she really didn't look like anything was wrong, and said, "Chu Jing just ran back to the ward to complain to you. She has a bad temper. I'm afraid she'll hit you."
"She has to be able to beat me. I'm not bragging. Just like her, I can beat her so much that even her mother doesn't know her."
Cheng Xiran said disdainfully.
She is not a delicate eldest lady, and the self-defense skills she learned from her brother are not just showy. She can't beat a big and thick man, but she can't beat someone like Chu Jing?
