The interior decoration of the Zuo family's main house is even more luxurious beyond imagination, with a European-style crystal lamp more than ten meters high, walls inlaid with warm-toned marble, and a spiral staircase made of Southeast Asian rosewood.

The curtains in the living room are half-closed, so the sunlight cannot fully penetrate, and the half-brightness and half-brightness add a sense of mystery.

The surroundings were eerily quiet, and even the sound of the pendulum of the Western clock shaking could be clearly heard.

An Yunxi walked into the living room cautiously, without seeing a single person. As Shen Xiuyun said, Zhao Jinrong dismissed everyone and asked to see her alone.

"When" sounded.

When the western clock reached twelve o'clock, it made a clear clanging sound.

An Yunxi was taken aback, and her heartbeat increased violently. She covered her chest and looked around nervously.Her eyes fell on an open door not far away, through the door screen, there seemed to be someone inside, and she walked over slowly.

When she approached, a low and cold voice came from inside.

"come in."

An Yunxi took a deep breath, adjusted her breathing, and her lips showed the arc of a smile that she was always good at.

She pushed open the door, and saw Zhao Jinrong sitting on the sofa, wearing a light blue new-style cheongsam, loose and airy, although thin, but still in good spirits, her hair was combed meticulously, and her posture was lofty and deep, as stable as Mount Tai.

The Zhao Jinrong in front of him doesn't look like a terminally ill person at all.

An Yunxi called out respectfully, "Hello, grandma." She thought about it, but there was no suitable address.It's better to call grandma directly.

"Please sit down, can you make tea?" Zhao Jinrong stretched out a hand to signal, pointing to the tea set on the table.

An Yunxi nodded quickly, "Yes. I'll make tea." Since entering Xia's house, she has also learned some upper-class etiquette. Flower arrangement, tea art, and golf are all necessary skills.

She skillfully boiled water, washed cups, poured tea, brewed it, and then served the tea respectfully.

Zhao Jinrong took the teacup, tasted it carefully, and said slowly, "The taste of the tea is okay, but the person who made the tea obviously felt impatient and didn't calm down."

An Yunxi was a little embarrassed when he came up and was embarrassed.She didn't sit or stand, so she had to say, "Grandma, I'll brew it again."

"It's okay, no need. I heard that the Xia family found you in the orphanage?" Zhao Jinrong asked.

"Yes." An Yunxi replied.

"I heard that Qiao Ran also grew up in an orphanage. There are not many orphanages in City K. Could it be that you are in the same orphanage?" Zhao Jinrong asked doubtfully.

"It's indeed the same family. Qiao Ran and I grew up together." Speaking of Qiao Ran, An Yunxi felt uncomfortable, always comparing her with Qiao Ran, which made her very disgusted.But she couldn't show it in front of Zhao Jinrong.

"Your mother, Qin Nianzhen, has a calm and steady personality, reserved and generous. I like her very much. Back then, she accidentally lost her child, and she was very sad. She didn't care about anything else, and focused on looking for the child. I also know this. Qin Nianzhen has suffered a lot these years. You have suffered in the orphanage for [-] years." Zhao Jinrong sighed.

"Yes, my mother endured too much pain to find me. I will definitely be filial to her in the future and will not let her down." An Yunxi secretly glanced at Zhao Jinrong.

Zhao Jinrong's extraordinary demeanor and cold eyes are exactly the same as Zuo Chenye.

"It's a pity, it's a pity." Zhao Jinrong was also looking at An Yunxi, shaking his head slowly.

An Yunxi was puzzled, "Grandma, what do you think is a pity?"

"It's a pity that your temperament is not like Qin Nianzhen at all. It can be seen that you really want to get my approval, and you have put a lot of effort into dressing up today. It's just that although you have no makeup, you wear too luxurious jewelry, which shows that you want to show yourself You have a pure appearance, but you don't want to give up the extravagance in your heart. Your mind is not simple. If Qin Nianzhen is sitting here today, she will definitely not dress like this. Simple can be noble, and luxury can be low-key." Zhao Jinrong He pointed it out sharply, with a slightly disdainful expression.

An Yunxi's face turned red and turned white, and her long diamond tassel earrings shook slightly, hitting her face at this moment, feeling icy cold.

"I..." She has always been able to speak, but at this moment she didn't know how to explain it.

"Although you grew up in an orphanage, you have not received good etiquette education. But you can't change your original intention. Now that you have wealth and power, you should look down on it and be penniless." Zhao Jinrong smiled with his head down, unable to see Is it a sneer or a sneer.

"Grandma is right, I will pay attention."

An Yunxi had no choice but to admit it.She felt humiliated by being seen through by Zhao Jinrong at a glance.Zhao Jinrong pointed out bluntly that she came from a poor family and couldn't get rid of her petty air.The undisguised sharpness made her lose all face.

No matter how hated I was, there was nothing I could do.

In order to cover up her gaffe, she hurriedly made another tea and served it to Zhao Jinrong respectfully.

Forget it, in order to successfully marry into the Zuo family, it is understandable that Zhao Jinrong made things difficult for her. She was also mentally prepared before.

"You love Zuo Chenye very much?" Zhao Jinrong picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"Grandma, I really love him. Please grandma help us." An Yunxi replied sincerely.

This was absolutely true, she was going crazy thinking about marrying Zuo Chenye, and she didn't want to wait any longer.

Zhao Jinrong glanced at the sequined high heels An Yunxi was wearing, and frowned.

She shook her head and said dissatisfiedly, "I can't see it. If you really love him, you should take extra care of the child in your womb. It's not appropriate to wear such high-heeled shoes."

An Yunxi was shocked, and after thinking about it for so long, she actually ignored this point.

Because it's just a villain, she didn't care at all.She should be wearing flat shoes.

At this moment, Zhao Jinrong's deep eyes were staring at her fiercely.

Those eyes were so dark and bottomless, as if they were endless voids.Stared at by such eyes, An Yunxi only felt chills on his back, and sweat dripped down his face.

She was a little incoherent, "Grandma, I'm sorry. I, I'm too nervous today. I'm afraid you won't be satisfied with me, so... I'm sorry, I dressed up on purpose. I didn't notice it, and I really won't do it in the future. "

At this time, An Yunxi really felt that Zhao Jinrong was difficult to deal with.Sure enough, as in the legend, the existence of a king.She felt that she was full of loopholes today, and she had nothing to hide in front of Zhao Jinrong.

"Hehe. Don't be nervous, I just said it casually." Zhao Jinrong straightened his sitting posture and asked again, "I heard that you and Qiao Ran are the same age?"

"Yes." An Yunxi replied.She didn't understand why Zhao Jinrong always brought up Qiao Ran.

"Hehe, the two of you grew up in the same orphanage, you are the same age, and you are both the same as Chen Ye... What a coincidence, this is the first time I know about it today." Zhao Jinrong chuckled.She suddenly felt that there seemed to be something wrong?
