An Ran raised her head, looked directly into Jiang Hongxi's eyes, and said firmly, "Director Jiang, I will not break up with Huai Nian."

Jiang Hongxi was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then burst into laughter.

"Haha, girl, do you think I will break you up?"

An Ran blinked, said "ah" a little embarrassedly, and a look of confusion appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Jiang Hongxi smiled even more: "This is the gift I prepared for you. After all, I don't know much about the preferences of you young people, so I will just give you a red envelope and let you freely choose what you like."

An Ran took the red envelope and asked cautiously, "You don't object to us dating?"

Jiang Hongxi asked back: "Will my opposition be useful?"

An Ran shook her head slightly.

Jiang Hongxi shook his head, with a look of helplessness and doting on his face, "That's right. And, I can see that he is sincere to you. Feelings can't be forced. Since Huai Nian has made his choice, I can only respect and bless him."

As An Ran listened to Jiang Hongxi's words, the tension in her heart gradually dissipated, and a strong warmth surged up. She said softly, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Hongxi said: "Privately, you can just call me grandpa like Huai Nian does. We are a family, there is no need to be so formal."

An Ran's burden was instantly lifted. She smiled in relief and said in a sweet voice, "Thank you, Grandpa."

Jiang Hongxi nodded with satisfaction and admired this well-behaved and sensible girl even more.

After leaving the teahouse, Anran felt relaxed and happy.

Ding--

As soon as the elevator door opened, Jiang Huaian almost rushed out.

Seeing An Ran, his eyes were full of anxiety and nervousness. He immediately held An Ran's shoulders and said, "Grandpa...did he look for you?"

An Ran felt the heat and tension in Jiang Huaian's palm, and couldn't help but feel warm. She gently held Jiang Huaian's hand, "Yeah."

Jiang Huainian frowned, pursed his lips, and stared at An Ran.

"What did grandpa say? Did he embarrass you?" His voice was a little anxious. "You don't have to listen to what he said. I will handle everything."

An Ran looked at Jiang Huainian's nervous expression and couldn't help wanting to tease him. She suppressed her smile and pretended to be puzzled: "Ah? Don't you need to listen?"

Jiang Huaian said firmly: "Well, whatever he said doesn't count. I won't let you suffer any grievances."

An Ran secretly laughed in her heart, but pretended to be regretful on the surface, pouting and saying, "Director Jiang...said that we are a family, and we should just call him grandpa from now on." She blinked and deliberately teased him, "Should I not listen to it?"

Jiang Huainian was stunned for a moment, then heaved a sigh of relief.

He pinched An Ran's nose lightly as punishment, and a doting smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Tease me."

An Ran giggled, showed the red envelope given by Jiang Hongxi, shook it proudly, and said with a smile: "Look, this is the gift from grandpa." Her eyes flickered, as if shining with golden light, and she teased: "Sure enough, he is rich and powerful, 888 million."

Jiang Huainian hugged An Ran tightly, his palm gently stroked her hair, and said, "Let's celebrate tonight to celebrate that we have been recognized by Grandpa."

An Ran snuggled in Jiang Huaian's arms and shook her head, saying, "Let's go to the hospital to see Xia Rui tonight."

Jiang Huaian loosened his arms and said softly, "It's time to go."

An Ran took Jiang Huai Nian's hand, and they walked into the elevator together. The elevator door slowly closed, and she turned to look at him and said, "I thought Grandpa would object to us being together."

Jiang Huainian smiled and said, "I didn't expect Grandpa to agree so easily. I guess... he was thinking of my grandmother..."

An Ran thought of Liang Shuyi whom she saw at the cocktail party last night, the dignified and elegant grandmother surrounded by everyone. In this chess game of marriage, love seemed to become insignificant. How pure could the feelings that were bound by interests be?

She said calmly: "Huai Nian, if one day you have to marry another woman for the benefit of the family, I will..."

Jiang Huainian immediately interrupted her and said firmly: "An An, no matter what happens, I will not give up our relationship."

An Ran asked: "What if it's a matter of life and death? Will you give up?"

Jiang Huaian frowned slightly, "Silly, don't think about unrealistic things. Nothing is more important than you, including my life."

An Ran's eyes moistened slightly, and she snorted coldly, "That sounds nice, I'll just believe you for now."

Ding--

The two smiled at each other, the love and tacit understanding in their eyes were self-evident. As soon as the elevator door opened, the two of them put away their smiles, restored their superior-subordinate attitude and walked out of the office.

After get off work, An Ran and Jiang Huainian went to the hospital separately. An Ran went to the flower shop to pick out a bunch of fresh lilies and some fruits.

Jiang Huaian arrived at the hospital first, and the driver dropped him off at the door before driving away.

He stood at the entrance of the hospital, gazing into the distance. After a while, An Ran came over with flowers and fruits.

Jiang Huainian immediately went up to her, took the fruit from her hand, and the two walked into the hospital hand in hand.

In the ward, Xia Rui was eating ice cream and watching TV. Her face was rosy and she didn't look sick at all.

Seeing Jiang Huaian and An Ran coming in, Xia Rui raised her eyebrows and a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She put down the ice cream in her hand, sat up straight, and said jokingly: "Oh, it's all Xia Ying's fault for her poor driving skills. I missed a good show last night!"

Jiang Huaian walked to the bed, put the fruit on the bedside table, and said calmly: "The rear-end chase scene is also quite interesting. My waist is injured. Now I can't get married."

Xia Rui sighed, then looked at An Ran and complained, "How can you curse your sister like that? I just sprained my ankle."

An Ran glared at Jiang Huaian, and Jiang Huaian shut his mouth, sat down on the sofa obediently and stopped talking.

An Ran gently held Xia Rui's hand and said softly, "Is your waist okay? Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Xia Rui shook her head gently and smiled, "It's nothing. I could have been discharged today. But my parents were worried and insisted that I be transferred to Jiang's Hospital for a full physical examination to make sure there was nothing serious."

Jiang Huainian turned around and asked Xia Rui: "Have you eaten?"

Xia Rui shrugged and said, "Not yet. The hospital meal is not tasty. Please treat me to a meal."

An Ran smiled and interrupted, "I ordered takeout, it will be delivered soon."

Xia Rui said: "An Ran is still careful."

Jiang Huainian couldn't help but smile proudly and said, "She accepted a red envelope from grandpa today." There was a hint of boasting in his tone.

Xia Rui showed an expression of disbelief and surprise on her face. She asked excitedly, "Really? So Grandpa has recognized you. That's great! Congratulations!"

An Ran chuckled.

After thinking for a while, she said seriously: "Xia Rui, there is something I have never told you..."
