An Ran regained her freedom, but her heart became even heavier.
After listening to Sheng Manru's words, she felt confused and didn't know what to do next.
After saying goodbye to Sheng Manru at the door of the coffee shop, An Ran walked along the green belt alone, thinking about whether to call Lu Renjie and ask.
When I was in a state of confusion, I heard the sound of a car horn.
An Ran looked sideways and saw a Ferrari driving past the roadside. It was the one that Nie Canghao bought for her.
The driver turned out to be Eleven!
"Get in the car!" Eleven greeted with a smile. "I have been following you for a long time, I must be tired from walking."
An Ran looked at Eleven for a moment. She happened to have many puzzled things to ask Eleven.
She walked through the green belt, stepped off the curb, and got into the car from the back seat.
Eleven asked: "Where to go?"
An Ran thought for a while and said, "Let's drive as you please. I want to ask you a few questions."
Eleven stepped on the accelerator slowly, and the car drove forward.
"Did you and Xiao Wu look for me in the past three or four days when I was missing?" An Ran asked casually.
She observed Eleven's expression in the rearview mirror.
Eleven replied: "I heard that Master Nie took you away because he was afraid that your enemies would retaliate against you."
An Ran sneered: "If enemies really come, shouldn't you and Xiaowu be by my side to protect me?"
Eleven was silent, not knowing how to answer for a while.
An Ran stared at the young face in the rearview mirror and slowly asked, "Where is Yuchen?"
"Yuchen has been taken care of by me and Xiaowu." Eleven breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Anran was no longer obsessed with the last question.
"Well, it turns out you two have been taking care of Yuchen these days." An Ran understood.
Eleven said no more, but looked a little embarrassed.
An Ran's heart slowly sank.
She didn't hear Eleven's explanation: for example, he and Xiao Wu were controlled by Nie Canghao's people, and they also lost their freedom, so they couldn't rescue her.
Eleven has no explanation.
Based on her understanding of the five of them, it means that he has nothing to hide.
"Who told you not to look for me?" An Ran suppressed the sadness in her heart and asked calmly: "Is it Nie Canghao or Ah Hao?"
Eleven continued driving without any intention of answering.
An Ran understood: "Well, it's Ahao."
"Don't misunderstand Brother Hao." Eleven finally couldn't help but speak and explained: "He said that Mr. Nie has been very emotionally unstable recently. Try not to conflict with him at this time, otherwise the situation may not be dealt with."
"I can understand." An Ran's tone was very calm, with a hint of ridicule: "After all, Mr. Nie is a big shot and it's not easy to mess with him! Of course he should... sacrifice me to appease him."
Eleven frowned, wanting to say something but holding back.
There was silence in the carriage.
An Ran took out her cell phone and dialed Lu Renjie's number.
The phone rang for a long time, and just when I was about to hang up, I finally got through.
"Xiao Ran, you're looking for me!" Lu Renjie's surprised and doting tone sounded no different from usual.
An Ran pondered for a moment and then said, "How are you lately?"
"You are taking the initiative to care about my brother!" Lu Renjie was even more moved and said hurriedly: "Brother is fine, don't worry! What else can I do here? I will go see you and Xiao Yuchen when I have some time.
"
An Ran finally felt relieved after hearing his cheerful voice as always. "Really... nothing happened?"
"What do you think is wrong with me?" Lu Renjie asked strangely.
An Ran rubbed her temples, feeling a little nervous. "It's okay."
"But I have to go back to work in the company during this time. Dad intends to train me to take over, so I may not have that much time to contact you. Xiaoran, you have to take good care of yourself and your little nephew." Lu Renjie instructed.
These words were obviously normal, but for some reason they made An Ran's heart twitch just now.
"Dad called me... I'll hang up now. Please contact me when you have time, bye!" Lu Renjie hurriedly hung up the phone.
An Ran's frown never relaxed, and she always felt anxious.
She didn't know how long it took, but she realized that Eleven was still driving around on the road, and then she said, "Go back to the hotel."
An Ran felt that she never wanted to return to Longfor Manor in her life.
There were only countless sad memories left for her there.
An Ran returned to the bedroom of the hotel suite. Looking at the photos on the bedside and the sketches on the desk, she couldn't explain how she felt.
She thought back to the three months she spent in Xiangshan Villa, and then thought about the three days she was captured and imprisoned in Longhu Manor by Nie Canghao, as if she had had a big dream.
The joys and sorrows experienced in the dream, the two extremes of heaven and hell, there is no transitional stage in between.
An Ran curled up on the sofa and took a nap. She vaguely heard the phone ringing and opened her eyes.
The light in the room has dimmed and it's almost dark.
An Ran stretched out her arms and took the mobile phone on the table, opened it and looked through it. There were no missed calls. It seemed that she was nervous and had auditory hallucinations.
She habitually opened her Moments and saw Nie Canghao's likes and comments on the Moments she updated seven days ago: "My son is the most handsome!"
An Ran's heart was shocked and she couldn't explain what it felt like!
Hehe, he just saw her updated Moments!
After her son knew how to sit, she took photos and shared them on her WeChat Moments, but it took seven days for her son’s father to bother to like and comment.
You can see how busy he has been these past seven days!
An Ran turned off her phone and threw it back to the cases.
The curtains were not drawn in the room, but the light was getting darker and darker, and it was completely dark.
Eleven came over and knocked on the door, but she ignored it.
She knew he had come to remind her to have dinner, but she had no appetite.
After a while, I heard a soft "click" of the lock cylinder, and heard the other party's footsteps.
An Ran knew how powerful these shadow people were - they never used keys to open locks!
She didn't bother to open her eyes and said coldly: "I'm not hungry!"
"Yuchen misses you." Ahao's voice.
An Ran finally opened her eyes, gave him a cold look, and then turned over.
Ah Hao looked at her angry back and closed his mouth knowingly.
After lying peacefully for a while, she didn't hear any movement from the man behind her, so she knew that he must have been standing there stupidly.
"Who will take care of Yuchen?" she asked coldly, but still turned her back to him.
Ahao glanced at her and said slowly: "Yuchen's mother is angry, of course Yuchen's father is taking care of her."
"Didn't that guy get injured and vomit blood, and also damage his brain and cause amnesia? He has so many problems, how can he still have the energy to take care of Yuchen?" An Ran asked coldly.
"You go back to the hospital." Ahao advised.
"He asked you to come pick me up?" An Ran's tone became more sarcastic, and he continued with a sneer: "You should listen to him! Now I finally see that there is a kind of person in this world, whose servility penetrates into his bones!"
Ahao was silent.
"As long as he can keep you by his side, I can do whatever he wants you to do? I can be your chess piece, and so can Yuchen!" An Ran continued to sarcastically say.
Ahao continued to be silent.
An Ran finally couldn't help but sit up and threw the pillow in his hand at Ah Hao.
Ahao didn't dodge or catch it, he let the pillow hit him and then rolled to his feet.
He lowered his eyes and still didn't speak.
Deep sadness spread from around him. Even if he lowered his head and closed his eyes, he could still feel his sadness.
It looks like a large dog that has been scolded by its owner and has a droopy head.
An Ran felt upset for a while.
She stood up and said angrily: "Why are you still here? Are you trying to show your superiority? Send me back to the hospital!"
