Shiyi, who was driving, asked An Ran, who was behind him: "Should we stay in a hotel?"
An Ran came back to her senses, thought about it for a while, and said, "Find a hotel near the musical instrument store to stay first."
We are staying in a hotel anyway, and of course the closer it is to where we work, the better.
The car drove towards the bustling business district of University Town and stopped in front of the pedestrian street.
Shiyi and Xiaowu switched to motorcycles, one carrying luggage and the other carrying An Ran and Xiao Yuchen, and drove into the pedestrian street.
They found a three-star hotel about a five-minute walk from the "Only Safe" musical instrument store.
Eleven checked in and Xiaowu moved everything in.
Xiaowu asked: "Do you want the photo to be hung on the wall?"
An Ran waved her hand: "Wrap it up first and leave it there."
I'm just staying in a hotel temporarily, hanging it up and taking it down again, so it doesn't have to be that troublesome.
She placed a few stage photos on the bedside and placed two framed sketches on the desk.
The suites in the three-star hotel are quite good. The bedroom and study room are about 60 square meters. Outside is the living room and dining room, which is also more than 50 square meters. It is much more spacious than the airport hotel where I stayed last time.
Xiao Wu and Eleven opened two rooms on the left and right next door to prepare for Ah Hao and others' return.
After the two of them packed their suitcases, they played with Yuchen on the carpet in the living room outside, with no intention of leaving.
An Ran sat next to it for a while and picked up her phone. She opened it and took a look, but there was no message.
Although there is no news from Nie Canghao, there is no news even from Ahao?
When An Ran was feeling depressed, she suddenly heard Eleven and Xiao Wu exclaiming in surprise.
"Sit up!"
"Yuchen can sit up now!"
An Ran quickly opened the camera on her mobile phone and captured the precious moment - Yuchen sat up for the first time!
The baby can sit!
The excitement and joy diluted the clouds and unhappiness in An Ran's heart, and she subconsciously wanted to find someone to share this happy moment with.
She was about to share the photo with Nie Canghao, but stopped.
Humph, just ignore him.
She shared the photo with Ahao, but there was no response from the other party.
An Ran tried to dial Ah Hao's phone, but it kept getting a busy signal, and she didn't know what he was busy with.
How could we not announce such a big happy event!
An Ran immediately selected three photos of Yuchen sitting and playing and uploaded them to Moments, with the caption: "Baby sat up for the first time! Isn't he handsome?"
Soon, people were liking it below, praising how great the handsome guy Yuchen is and so on.
Lu Renjie went even further and made a direct video call.
An Ran temporarily forgot her unhappiness, connected to the video call, and shared with her brother the memorable moments in Yuchen's growth.
Lu Renjie asked strangely: "Xiaoran, are you and Yuchen staying in a hotel?"
An Ran had no choice but to excuse himself: "The weather is getting cooler, let's take him out to play."
Lu Renjie did not continue to ask questions, but admired Xiao Yuchen's cute looks with his sister.
He has a relatively romantic personality and said a lot of sentimental words of praise and praise. By the time he finished the video call, it was already half an hour later.
An Ran checked the circle of friends again, and sure enough, she received a large number of likes and various words of congratulations and blessings.
But there is still no news from Nie Canghao, nor any reply from Ah Hao.
When resting at night, An Ran noticed Xiao Wu sleeping on the sofa in the living room outside.
She had a premonition that Nie Canghao and Ahao would not come back tonight, or that they would come back very late.
It's possible that something important happened or there was potential danger, so Xiao Wu would be so cautious.
An Ran lay down haphazardly, in a daze, not knowing what time it was, when he suddenly heard his cell phone vibrate.
She hurriedly sat up, turned on the light and took the phone - it was Ah Hao!
An Ran was startled for a moment and answered the phone.
"Time is tight, I can't talk to you for too long. I said, listen, if you don't understand something you can ask me." Ah Hao's voice came over, a little solemn.
An Ran's sleepiness disappeared, and she felt an inexplicable coldness coming over her.
She tugged at the edge of the quilt and responded.
"Xiaojiu and I may not be going back in the past three days. There are some important things that need to be dealt with urgently. If Mr. comes home during the trip, try not to provoke him. If he is in a bad mood, give him some accommodation. Don't quarrel. Try to avoid it.
Conflict of any kind."
safely:"……"
"When you see him, try to hold Yuchen together and don't leave him alone. And don't ask him what happened. He will tell you what he wants to say."
"Can you understand what I said?" Ah Hao asked.
safely:"……"
"No problem, I'm hanging up!" Ahao hurriedly hung up the phone without even saying goodbye.
safely:"……"
What is going on!
For three consecutive days, An Ran did not see Nie Canghao and did not contact Ah Hao again.
However, in the past three days, several sensational events occurred in the Nie Group.
First, the two veteran major shareholders of the Nie Group had an unexpected incident:
One was Director Qin, who loved fishing. His yacht suddenly capsized while he was fishing. Two assistants were rescued, but he was salvaged and sent to the hospital. However, he died after being rescued;
Another director Lu, who loved beauty, suffered a heart attack while checking into a room with his secretary. When the ambulance arrived, he had stopped breathing.
This is bizarre enough, but there are even more bizarre things to come.
Nie Cheng, the former vice president of Nie Group, had some mental problems for some reason.
Maybe it was because he had been idle at home for a long time after being dismissed from his position as vice president and was under too much mental pressure, or maybe it was because the sudden death of his two director friends had dealt a big blow to him. In short, he was a little crazy.
One moment he went to the police station and said that someone was trying to harm him and wanted to seek personal protection. The next moment he went to the company to make a fuss with the board of directors and said that his nephew Nie Canghao wanted to kill him.
The most outrageous thing is that he actually climbed onto the Nie Skyscraper and threatened to jump off the building.
President Nie made a prompt decision and sent several security personnel to catch Nie Cheng, who was looking for life and death, and sent him to the hospital for mental examination and treatment.
A good person suddenly became mentally unstable. Nie Cheng's wife Jiang Qin was about to burst into tears.
Nie Cheng's two daughters, Nie Weiwei and Nie Yuanyuan, as well as his illegitimate son Nie Haiyan, whom he recognized last year, are all disgraced and cannot hold their heads high in the company.
These news reached An Ran's ears intermittently. After all, it caused a stir and all kinds of news appeared on the Internet in an endless stream. Nie couldn't cover it up even if he wanted to.
An Ran was browsing the news on the website in the private rehearsal room of the musical instrument store, always feeling an ominous premonition that a storm was about to come.
What happened? Why didn't Ahao let her take the initiative to ask Nie Canghao!
Where did Nie Canghao go during the three days and nights he disappeared? Was he with Bai Ling?
Thinking of this, An Ran couldn't sit still.
She thought about it and finally thought of a good reason to contact him - divorce!
After the three-month trial divorce period expires, it is entirely up to her to decide whether to continue the marriage or not.
Thinking of this, An Ran confidently dialed Nie Canghao's mobile phone number - and he got through!
She opened her eyelashes slightly and held her breath waiting for the other party to answer the phone.
It wasn't until the phone was about to hang up that the call was finally connected, and the man's slightly hoarse and indifferent voice rang: "What's the matter?"
An Ran got angry hearing his tone, and her voice was colder than his: "I know you are very busy. But no matter how busy Mr. Nie is, please take some time out and let's sign the formal divorce agreement!"
There was silence on the phone for a long time, and then she heard his answer: "Okay, I'll be there right away!"
