hello dear translator

Zhao Xiran picked up the phone several times, but finally he didn't have the courage to make a call.What would she tell Cheng Xiao?That she shouldn't lose her temper?Say she doesn't know good people?Was it because she messed up for a while that she got angry with Cheng Xiao?Beg him not to argue with him anymore, she already understands his thoughts?

In that case, Zhao Xiran really couldn't say it.

Compared with apologizing, she still has self-esteem that she thinks is more important to maintain.

I just kept thinking about it until the evening, but I didn't see Cheng Xiao coming home.

Sitting at the dining table, her eyelids drooped several times, but she tried to keep them open.

Aunt Zhen, who was standing by the side, couldn't stand it any longer, and said cautiously, "Madam, if you don't eat this dish, it will be cold again!"

This is already the third time that Aunt Zhen has reheated dishes in a row. The dishes that looked pretty good at first only maintain their original color. how bad.

Zhao Xiran glanced over lightly, but said nothing, and sat in the chair impartially as before.

"How about I call my husband? Ask him when he will be back?" Aunt Zhen was walking towards the hall when a female voice suddenly came from behind, "No need!"

Aunt Zhen turned around.

Zhao Xiran, who had been restrained all this time, picked up the chopsticks and started to move slowly.

Aunt Zhen, who was originally worried, was instantly happy, "There is still soup simmering on the stove, ma'am, just wait, I'll get it right away!"

The moment the hurried footsteps dissipated in his ears, Zhao Xiran stopped.

Quietly tortured her heart, who is she competing with?Still betting on your own body?It's fine if he doesn't come back to eat, how can such a big city be without Cheng Xiao's food?Even if he doesn't know how to order food, there is still Ji Kong who is always by his side!
She is really too salty to eat radish and worry about it!
What she should do most now is to take good care of herself and give birth to the fetus in her womb safely!Right, that is it!As for the rest, let it be!

Zhao Xiran finally convinced himself that he no longer worried about whether Cheng Xiao would go home or not, nor did he stop thinking about why Cheng Xiao told Ren Yun about Ji Yanfeng.It's like installing a silencer to block out all the sounds that don't belong to her.

In order to make himself more busy, Zhao Xiran rushed to Jasmine Cafe early in the morning of the second day.

Last night, she and Yao Lingling made an appointment to meet at Jasmine Cafe, but she came an hour earlier than the appointment.

Order a cup of hot milk, grab a newspaper, and read it carefully.

"Hahaha! I laughed so hard, this big carrot is like a big fool!" A girl in a black and white school uniform made a high-pitched voice.

Another girl next to her tilted her head, "Why does this big carrot look so familiar? I feel like I know him!"

"Lona of Diamond."

"Lorna? Why did she pretend to be a silly carrot? Didn't she just become popular not long ago?"

"Who knows!" There was a trace of regret in the girl's eyes, but it was quickly overshadowed by the contempt later, "Maybe she thinks it's more attention-grabbing to act like a silly carrot!"

Zhao Xiran, who was drinking milk, stopped. Playing a silly big radish might really attract a lot of people's attention, but based on what she knew about Lorna, she was so arrogant and narcissistic that she would never Volunteer to do something grandstanding.

The only explanation for the stupid and silly carrot in the variety show is Cheng Xiao's secret promise.

At this moment, Zhao Xiran felt less complaints about Cheng Xiao who didn't come home without saying hello last night, and even drank milk a lot more.

Maybe she is really narrow-minded, Cheng Xiao has always protected her, but the way he protects her is different from what he thinks.

"What are you thinking about so preoccupied?"

I don't know when Yao Lingling came to the table. At this time, she stretched out her hand and opened the chair opposite, and slowly sat in.

"I heard from Sophia that you often come to this place these years?" Yao Lingling glanced at the glass of milk in front of Zhao Xiran.

"Whether I want coffee or not, I'm used to it every week!"

"It's a good habit!" Yao Lingling took a sip of warm water and said.

"I see that your complexion is not very good, did you not rest last night?" Before Yao Lingling could answer, Zhao Xiran said to himself again: "Lingling, I think that when we are our age, we should not be like we were when we were young. Take care, let go of what should be let go, so that you can live more comfortably!"

"I really want to!" Yao Lingling breathed out, her expression suddenly serious, "But I don't have such a good life as you. I married a good husband, and someone will think about everything for you. Cheng Mo is obedient and sensible! Look at me again, I have nothing but Xiaoduo. However, if I don't work hard, I'm really afraid that when Xiaoduo grows up in the future, she will hate me even more!"

Although Yao Lingling and Xiaoduo have known each other for a long time since returning to China, the relationship between the two has made a great breakthrough compared to before, and Xiaoduo no longer avoids Yao Lingling like she did when she first met Yao Lingling. Say a few more words.

But other than that, there was no more breakthrough between Yao Lingling and Xiaoduo.

Especially as Xiaoduo grows up day by day, the more she knows, the heavier her thoughts become, which makes Yao Lingling more worried.

Zhao Xiran thought about it carefully, Yao Lingling had told her about this matter many times.

Looking at those twinkling eyes quietly, he stretched out his hand to caress the back of her hand, "Lingling, listen to me, open up your heart and communicate with Xiaoduo once, and tell her everything about the past. Xiaoduo is almost the same now. Almost ten years old, she will understand you!"

Yao Lingling shook her head, "Of course it won't work, Xiaoduo, she's just a child, she's not as strong as you think! What's more, the relationship between me and Cheng Jiacong has long since ended. After so many years, my mood has already calmed down. I , I don’t want to, I don’t want to bring up old things again…”

"Is it you who dare not, or Xiaoduo who doesn't want to?" Zhao Xiran refused to budge, "Lingling, you have thought it through carefully, this is very important to you and Xiaoduo!"

Yao Lingling fell silent like a deflated ball, and sat limply in the chair.

Zhao Xiran looked at her, and said after a while: "No matter whether you still think about that man in your heart or not, he will never be with you again in this life! Don't feel cruel, it is the truth! If you don't completely remove him from your heart , Lingling, with all due respect, I think it is very difficult for you and Xiaoduo to be happy. Especially Xiaoduo, she is still so young and has a bright future, but because of the past incident between you and Cheng Jiacong..."

"No!" Yao Lingling stood up from the chair in an instant, "I will not let her be affected by the past, I will start a new life and give her the home she wants!"

It seemed to be to prove something, or maybe it was to hope that Zhao Xiran would trust her more.

In an instant, Yao Lingling smiled and said, "Lu Shenze, he's been looking for various reasons to ask me out recently. I think, if things go well, he and I should be able to become a family soon."

Zhao Xiran originally hoped that Yao Lingling could find his own happiness as soon as possible, but now seeing Yao Lingling like this, he was faintly worried.

"Lingling, are you serious?" Zhao Xiran said seriously: "You are willing to start a new life, I am really happy for you from the bottom of my heart! But you can't mess yourself up because you want to give Xiaoduo a stable home. Let go! What I have experienced before, Lingling, I really don't want you to..."

Before the words finished, Yao Lingling stretched out her hand to stop, "No. However, what you are worried about will not happen this time."

She picked up the cold drink on the table and wanted to drink it, but stopped at the moment when she was about to put it into her mouth, "After so much, if I am still as stupid as before, wouldn't all these years of suffering be in vain?"

Zhao Xiran: "..."

As for what Lu Shenze said to Zhao Xiran at Ze Ze Bar, she didn't mention a word.It's not that she doesn't want to help Lu Shenze and Yao Lingling, it's just that it's always about love and love when it comes to relationships.If there is no intention of each other, even if they are tied together by force, they will not be happy in the end.

Yao Lingling's journey has not been easy. In the past, she desperately hoped that Yao Lingling could be with Xiang Youjun, and things did develop as she thought, but in the end, Xiang Youjun chose Xiang's Group.

Zhao Xiran never forgot the lessons she had learned, and never forgot Cheng Xiao's exhortations. No matter how much she cared about Yao Lingling's affairs, she could not cross the line and treat everything as her own business.

Until Yao Lingling finished drinking the water in the glass, Zhao Xiran took the hot water bottle on the side and refilled her glass.

That is, when Zhao Xiran and Yao Lingling were chatting in Jasmine Cafe, Cheng Xiao's plane landed.

Turn on the phone that was turned off, and see two more missed calls.Eagerly cut it open, but it was not what he expected.

"Boss, Assef said that he did see Ji Yanfeng a few days ago, but he lost him when he followed him to the downtown area on the east bank!" Ji Kong turned his head and saw Cheng Xiao's serious face, and paused, "Boss , what happened at home?"

Before leaving, Ji Kongyou repeatedly told Sophia not to reveal the whereabouts of the boss, could it be that at this time...

"You just said that Assef lost someone in the downtown area on the east coast?"

"Ah? Yes!" Before Ji Kong could figure out what was going on, he heard Cheng Xiao's words and hurriedly responded.

Cheng Xiao glanced coldly, "The downtown area on the east bank is not far from Dongling, right?"

"Yes!" Ji Kong suddenly sobered up, "Boss, what do you mean..."

"The car sent by Assef should have arrived, right? Is it what I thought? I'll know if I go and have a look!"

Ji Kong hurriedly picked up his suitcase and strode forward.

After driving for about four or ten minutes, the car stopped outside the gate of Tanglin.

Ji Kong got out of the car first, and when he made a detour to the side where Cheng Xiao was, the man sitting in the car had already pushed the door open first and stepped forward with a leg.

Cheng Xiao stood quietly in front of the cemetery, and when the person in charge of guarding the cemetery came over, he said politely, "Sir, is there a Maizi here?"

The old man with white hair widened his eyes when he heard the name, "Are you here to see Maizi again?"

The conjecture in Cheng Xiao's heart was verified at this moment, but on the surface he was calm, "Please ask the old man to lead the way!"

"Who are you, Maizi?" The old man obviously didn't like him.

Seeing the two of them like this, Ji Kong quickly returned to the car and took the bouquet he had prepared earlier, holding it in his arms, "Mr., we just want to pay homage to this old friend for many years, and there is no other malice."

Although the snow-white kapok is not a precious flower, it can even be said to be the least valuable thing in the countryside, but it is Maizi's love in his life.
