Zhao Jinche: "Brother Ye, don't be so stingy. Your consortium is so big, it's not like it can't function if you give Lan Lan a few more days off. It's just right for her to accompany my third sister-in-law. She must not be used to it after just getting married."

"Isn't that right, Third Sister-in-law?" Zhao Jinche turned to look at Yun Luoxi, "Let's play together tomorrow."

Yun Luoxi was stunned for a moment, looked at Shi Ye, and then looked at Zhao Jinche.

She actually hoped that Lan Lan could stay in the imperial capital for a few more days, but looking at the expression of the Tenth Master, it was obvious that he would not agree.

Zhao Jinche: "Third sister-in-law?"

Yun Luoxi: "I...I can do anything."

Shi Ye frowned slightly and looked at Gu Jinlan who had not expressed his opinion. "Do you want to stay and play?"

It seemed as if he was asking for her opinion, but there was clearly a hint of coercion in his eyes.

Gu Jinlan could feel that if she nodded and agreed to stay now, he would definitely strangle her when they returned.

He doesn't acknowledge her as his wife, but still acts like a husband and takes care of her. Is that crazy?

"Dad, I want to stay and play with you." Shi Xingran's grandmother's voice rang out.

It’s so much fun playing with Teacher Gu and Aunt Yun!

Shi Ye frowned and said, "I didn't ask you."

Shi Xingran pouted in dissatisfaction.

"Ah Che, thank you for your kindness. I really have to go back tomorrow."

After hearing what Gu Jinlan said, Shi Ye’s brows immediately relaxed.

Gu Jinlan added: "But there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Luo Xi is here, I will come here often. You can take me out to play next time."

Tomorrow is the day she will meet her cheap cheating husband.

She wanted to go back and see how Shi Ye would deal with it tomorrow.

You know what, I'm really looking forward to his performance.

Zhao Jinche looked regretful, "Okay, then I won't keep you here. I can also go to Haicheng to play with you later."

Gu Jinlan smiled, "Okay, you're welcome anytime."

Shi Ye suddenly became unhappy again.

Zhao Shiyun also had a gloomy face.

Gu Jinlan glanced at Zhao Shiyun.

She said this on purpose, firstly to upset Zhao Shiyun, and secondly to let Zhao Jingchuan know that Luo Xi was not alone here.

If Zhao Jingchuan bullies Luo Xi again in the future, she can kill him at any time.

The subsequent topic mainly revolved around the cooperation project between Zhao and Shiguang Group.

After dinner was over and Shi Ye was sent away, Zhao Jinheng, who had not spoken much the whole time, left immediately.

Zhao Shiyun looked at the car going away and muttered, "No wonder Gu Jinlan is so rude and uneducated. It turns out she is an orphan without parents to teach her."

Hearing this, Zhao Zihua and Zhao Jinchen shouted at the same time: "Yun'er!"

Zhao Shiyun was stunned for a moment, looking bewildered, "Dad, big brother, why are you guys so protective of Gu Jinlan?"

Even if it's to please Shi Ye, there's no need for this, right?

Moreover, there is no need for the Zhao family to please the Shi family.

Both father and son looked gloomy.

Zhao Jingchuan saw through their thoughts and said, "Yun'er, Lanlan is your third sister-in-law's friend, don't say that about her."

The real younger sister, if she were still alive, would also be a child without parents to raise her.

So what Yoona said just now touched the pain point of her father and elder brother.

It’s not that they protect Gu Jinlan so much, but it’s because Gu Jinlan reminds them of their displaced younger sister.

Zhao Jinche also spoke up, "Yun'er, what you said is indeed wrong. I think Lanlan is quite well-educated and reasonable. She just said that to Third Brother upstairs to help Third Sister-in-law. There is nothing wrong with defending her best friend. She is just a little protective, and Third Brother himself said that he was wrong."

Zhao Shiyun opened her mouth dumbly, her eyes instantly reddened, "You... why are you all saying that to me? I... I just said it casually, and I'm also worried about my third brother!"

"Alright! Guests are welcome, so don't bother about this matter anymore." Zhao Zihua looked cold and glanced at Zhao Jinchen, "Jinchen, come to my study, I have something to tell you."

Zhao Jinchen nodded and followed his father.

Zhao Shiyun stood there in a daze, tears instantly welling up in her eyes.

What exactly happened here?

In the past, whenever she was a little unhappy, the whole family would gather around her and comfort her.

Not to mention the third brother. Now that Yun Luoxi has taken away his love, he naturally won’t love her as much as before.

But why have dad, eldest brother and fourth brother changed?

"Why are you crying again?" Yan Ziyin hurriedly comforted her, "Okay, your father and brothers didn't mean any bad things. After all, Miss Gu is a friend brought by Aye, and she is also a good friend of your third sister-in-law. Even if she did something wrong, we, as the host, should be humble and give in. Be good, don't cry, your third brother also knows your good intentions."

Zhao Jingchuan said nothing and turned away.

He was still feeling depressed and had no mood to comfort his sister.

Yun Luoxi followed.

Only Zhao Jinche and Yan Ziyin were left, comforting Zhao Shiyun on the left and right.

"You won't be pretty if you cry any more."

"Our Yuner is the best behaved one."

With the comfort of her mother and fourth brother, Zhao Shiyun finally stopped crying, and the three of them went back to the house hand in hand.

Suddenly, Yan Ziyin remembered something, "By the way, Ah Che, have you added Miss Gu on WeChat? I forgot about it when we were having dinner just now. I want to ask her to make a custom order later. She promised me before."

Zhao Jinche: "I added it yesterday at my third brother's wedding. I'll push it to you later."

“……” Zhao Shiyun suddenly felt a little suffocated.

She couldn't cry anymore now, and her eyes, which were still wet with tears, were filled with jealousy.

It seems that she and Gu Jinlan are incompatible!

Fortunately, Gu Jinlan is leaving tomorrow. I don’t want to see her again!

Upstairs, in Zhao Zihua's study.

"Jinchen, are you still looking for my little sister?"

"Um……"

Zhao Zihua looked at his son, "Are you still blaming me for giving up on looking for her?"

A few years ago, when Zhao Jinchen learned that Zhao Zihua decided not to look for his younger sister anymore, the father and son had a big fight.

It was at that time that Zhao Jingchuan heard their quarrel and learned that Zhao Shiyun was not the biological child of this family.

Zhao Jinchen said: "No, I don't blame you."

Over the past few years, he has gradually understood his father's feelings at that time.

My father had been searching for more than ten or twenty years, but there was still no hope.

That feeling of hopelessness can really make people feel desperate and painful.

It's like being trapped in a bottomless black abyss, without seeing any light at all. Anyone would want to give up.

Zhao Zihua asked: "Are there any clues?"

Zhao Jinchen shook his head in silence.

Zhao Zihua said, "Keep looking. You're right. If he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his body!"

Hearing this, Zhao Jinchen's eyes lit up and he nodded heavily.

When Gu Jinlan and Shi Ye returned to the hotel, Shi Xingran had already fallen asleep in the car.

Shi Ye held his son in his arms, said good night to Gu Jinlan, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

Half an hour later, Gu Jinlan finished her shower and came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.

She picked up her phone and prepared to send a message to ask "Song Youze" what time he would return to Jinhua Mansion tomorrow night.

Suddenly Shi Ye called.

"Open the door, I'm outside..."
