"It's okay, it's not bad, it's not bad, but it's better than doing odd jobs everywhere before, and the food in the cafeteria is super delicious, I've made a lot of money, I have the opportunity to take you to eat." Chen Moyi said about the food , very happy.

Seeing her happy look, Jing Ran couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth, "You're a foodie at first glance."

"Eating is the most important thing in the world. When I was young, my family's conditions were not good. I often didn't have enough to eat, so I was particularly afraid of going hungry. I had stomach problems, and it was because I was often hungry when I was young." Chen Mo sighed.

Jing Ran couldn't help but frown.

There were times when she was hungry, too, but that was before she was five, and it was brief.

Later, after being adopted into Mo's house, he was well-clothed and well-fed, and he never went hungry. Compared to himself, Chen Mo's life was really hard.

But even in such an environment, it is rare for Chen Mo to maintain his original intention.

Uncle... It might be a good thing to be with her.

Jing Ran suppressed the sour feeling in his heart and said, "Don't talk about it, it will get better in the future. Mo's is a company with good benefits and benefits. As long as you work hard, you will have a future and money, and this company relies heavily on talents. , you have a chance."

"It's true." Chen Mo smiled happily, but then felt something was wrong, looked at her and asked, "Why do you seem to know this company so well?"

"Ah?" Jing Ran didn't know that he had slipped his tongue just now, and turned his eyes away a little guilty, "I have read some news about Mo's, after all...the cafe is just opposite Mo's, and you can often meet Mo's Employees, listen to their discussions, as my profession, if I have a keener observation ability, I will know."

This explanation was a bit far-fetched, and Jing Ran himself didn't quite believe it. Fortunately, Chen Mo didn't doubt him, and nodded with a smile, "Mo's is indeed like this."

"By the way, the photo you sent me just now at noon, is the man on it someone you like?" Jing Ran finally mentioned the important point.

Chen Mo's face flushed slightly, and he looked away shyly, "You have seen all this? Your observation skills are too good."

"Maybe..." She felt guilty and didn't explain further.

Chen Mo looked at the home not far ahead, and then explained, "He, he is considered a nobleman of my family, he has helped me many times, he saved my life at first, and my brother's life later, He also helped me arrange work, how could I not be moved? It's just..."

Jing Ran's heart moved, he looked at Chen Mo who was hesitant to speak, and asked, "Just what?"

"It's nothing." Chen Mo shook his head, and shouted at the people in the house, "Mom, Chen Chen, I'm back."

"Sister." Chen Chen trotted out, his thin body didn't match his actual age, with a hat on his head and a mask on his face, only a pair of aura eyes were exposed.

Perhaps it was because I hadn't seen Chen Mo for a long time, so I bent over with joy at this moment, and after my eyes fell on Jing Ran's face, I smiled again, "Are you my sister's friend, Sister Jing?"

"I am, hello." Jing Ran reached out to shake his hand.

Chen Chen looked at her hand, not knowing how to respond, after all, he had never seen such a formal greeting.

Jing Ran also realized that what he had done was not right, so he quickly withdrew his hand and said with a smile, "This is for you."

"Thank you, Sister Jing." Chen Chen happily took it.

Xiao Yunfang poked her head out from the kitchen and said, "Chen Mo, tell Xiaojing to come in, we can eat right away."

"Okay." Chen Mo smiled, and walked into the house with Jing Ran on his arm, "I can already smell the aroma, I'm so greedy, you should eat more later, that's my mother's best ginger duck. "

"Okay." Jing Ran replied with a low eyebrow.

After Xiao Yunfang put the duck soup on the dining table, she rubbed her hands and said, "I don't know if it suits Xiaojing's appetite, but if you like it, you can eat more."

"Auntie, sit down and eat too. Let's eat together. It looks delicious. Auntie's cooking skills are really good." Jing Ran gradually got used to the way this family gets along, and enthusiastically pulled Xiao Yunfang to sit down and said to them , "Don't treat me like a guest, be natural, let me serve you a meal."

"Then what a shame, you are a guest..." Xiao Yunfang said cautiously.

Jing Ran quickly took the bowl in front of her and said, "I told you to be more comfortable, you sit down."

"Mom, just treat Xiaojing as one of your own family members, be natural." Chen Mo also persuaded with a smile.

Xiao Yunfang didn't move.

Jing Ran served the rice and handed it to Xiao Yunfang with both hands.

When Xiao Yunfang took it, his eyes fell on the bracelet she was wearing, and he was startled for a moment.

that bracelet...

"Auntie?" Seeing that she hadn't picked it up for a long time, Jing Ran had to ask in confusion.

Chen Mo also felt strange, and looked at his mother, "Mom, what's the matter with you? Xiaojing is serving you a meal, hurry up and take it."

Only then did Xiao Yunfang come to her senses, and hastily took it, looking down with a guilty conscience, "I'm a little distracted, sorry."

"Let's eat, I'm so hungry." Chen Chen said weakly from the side.

The atmosphere gradually warmed up, everyone chatted while eating, but Xiao Yunfang didn't talk much, as if she had something on her mind.

Fortunately, Chen Chen was very good at enlivening the atmosphere. It was probably because he had been in the hospital for too long, so he didn't talk much. Now that there are so many people, it's natural to talk a lot.

Most of them are about funny things in the hospital.

Jing Ran listened quietly, laughing from time to time.

At Chen Chen's age, he was supposed to be flamboyant and youthful, but because of this illness, all these good things were taken away.

What a distressed child.

Even though my life is not good, I still try my best to make my sister and mother relax.

After Chen Mo sent Jingran away at night, Xiao Yunfang dragged him outside as soon as he came back. He lowered his voice and asked, "How did you know this Xiaojing?"

"Why are you asking this?" Chen Mo looked at her curiously.

"Just asking..."

"Mom, I still have something to ask you. Why are you so weird in front of Xiaojing? You always lose your mind and sometimes look at her thoughtfully. What's going on?" Chen Mo asked suspiciously road.

As soon as this was mentioned, Xiao Yunfang felt guilty. Fortunately, it was night, and Chen Mo didn't see her expression clearly, so she replied perfunctorily, "I'm not distracted, it's just your illusion."

"Really?" Chen Mo was dubious, and told the process of getting to know Xiao Jing.

Xiao Yunfang didn't hear anything, and asked again, "Do you know who is in her family? Where are her parents? What do they do?"

"Mom, look at you, you said you don't care, so you asked again?" Chen Mo looked at her helplessly.

"I, I'll just ask, because she is your friend." Xiao Yunfang stammered again.

Chen Mo shook his head, "I've only known her for two days, and it's definitely not good to ask about other people's family affairs, so don't ask, Xiaojing will talk naturally if she wants to, and it's rare for me to meet someone who can chat well." friend."

"..." Xiao Yunfang opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but finally swallowed it back.

When she followed Chen Mo into the room, she remembered another thing, and asked, "By the way, that Mr. Mo, he has helped us so much, and we haven't thanked him enough yet. How are you doing now?"

"Ah? What's the matter, where are you thinking? He is my boss now, does the boss understand?" Chen Mo denied it quickly.

Xiao Yunfang looked like I knew her well. "Okay, okay, I won't say it, but Mom still has to remind you that in a family like ours, there are some things that can't be won. To be honest, it's true to be honest."

"I know, I know." Chen Mo knew that she would say this, obviously a little impatient, walked through their residence and entered his room.

Xiao Yunfang could only look at her back and shake her head.

It would be fine if she could really listen.

If you can't listen to it, then in the future... I'm afraid you will be hurt.

Like...she...

Putting aside these thoughts and not thinking about them, Xiao Yunfang thought about Xiaojing's matter again, after much deliberation, she decided to meet Ji Xiaogang again tomorrow.

She has to figure something out.

***
Jing Ran took a taxi home, somewhat exhausted.

I really want to lie down when I get home, don’t think about anything, don’t care about anything, and let myself relax for a while.

As soon as he entered the room, he frowned at the situation inside.

Ji Zhidong was busy in the kitchen, when he heard the door open, he poked his head out and said, "You're back? Wash your hands and eat, I'll prepare the last dish soon."

Jing Ran's face darkened a little, and he walked straight to the kitchen, looking at the man with an apron tied inside, "Mr. Ji, this is my house, how can you come in and out at will? And when I'm not at home, Don't you think it's wrong to do that?"

Ji Zhidong poured out the soup, and walked towards her with it, "Come on, come on, make room, don't burn you."

He didn't take the move head-on, which made Jing Ran very helpless, "Did you hear what I said?"

"My hands are so hot, oops..." He deliberately shook the bowl he was holding.

Jing Ran was afraid that he would be really hot, so he quickly moved away.

He came out with the soup, and avoided discussing the matter with her again.

When Jing Ran understood it, she was only annoyed again, "Mr. Ji, I really hope you can understand what I mean. I didn't say something harsh because I was afraid of hurting your self-esteem."

"These meals are all made according to your favorite taste. Eat it quickly. I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first." Ji Zhidong untied his apron and said to her.

"Are you listening to me?" Jing Ran finally couldn't help being angry.

This way of doing Tai Chi is really annoying.

"Of course, do you want an answer? Then I'll answer it all. I must be tired after buying vegetables and waiting at the door. I took the key I got from the property and came in. I understand what you mean. , and I understand very well, you don't need to emphasize it many times, I did this because I wanted to do it, not because of something or plotting something, you can rest assured." After Ji Zhidong answered, he went to the door to change his shoes.

Jing Ran stood in front of the dining table, looked at the food on that table, and saw his injured and bandaged fingers, feeling very uncomfortable.

"Okay, don't be angry, let's eat first, I'm leaving, remember to close the doors and windows at night, and don't open the door to strangers."

Jing Ran pouted, a little disdainful.

After all, strangers have already entered the room.
