Lin Qingran didn't know how long she had slept.

When she opened her eyes again, the sun was shining brightly outside. After the phone call with Mother Lin, she was so angry that she punched the pillow twice and fell asleep hugging it.

She looked at the time. It was a little after two in the afternoon.

Lin Qingran climbed up from the bed, rubbed her arms which were a little sore from being pressed, stretched, and went downstairs.

Lu Siheng sat on the sofa in the living room.

He was wearing black silk housecoat, leaning on the sofa, flipping through a magazine.

Behind him was a floor-to-ceiling window. Bright light shone through the window glass and shone on him, making him look like he was glowing.

The glowing man seemed to notice her, and he looked away from the magazine, looked at her, and asked with concern: "Are you awake? Do you want some porridge now?"

Lin Qingran looked at him blankly and said "hmm" woodenly.

Lu Siheng smiled, put the magazine on his knees aside, stood up and went into the kitchen.

The porridge was cooked four hours ago, but he didn't expect Lin Qingran to fall asleep again in such a short time. He couldn't bear to disturb her, so he put the porridge in the pot to keep it warm.

Lin Qingran sat down at the dining table, looking at the steaming porridge and exquisite side dishes he brought out, then looking at his cheerful smiling face, an indescribable emotion welled up in her heart.

He looked like he was having a good time.

What is he happy about?

Lin Qingran scooped the porridge into her mouth with a spoon, and looked at him while eating, "Thank you for troubling you today."

Lu Siheng was stunned for a moment, then said calmly: "I don't think it's troublesome."

"Is there nothing wrong with your company?"

"Ok?"

"I mean, you just took over the Lu Group, so there should be a lot of eyes on you, right? You didn't go to the company..."

"It's okay." Lu Siheng said calmly, "Don't I have you?"

Lin Qingran paused and looked up at him.

"Mrs. Lu." Lu Siheng called softly.

When their eyes met, Lin Qingran's heart beat slightly as if she was burned by something.

The next second, Lu Siheng said again: "Now in the eyes of outsiders, I have climbed up the high branch of the Lin family."

Lin Qingran breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.

It turned out that the "Mrs. Lu" was just a joke on his part.

-

A little after nine in the evening.

Lin Qingran drove away from Jiangyue Bay.

A few minutes ago, she received a call from the owner of BL Bar, saying that Bai Shirui was drunk in their store.

Bai Shirui refused to let the bar owner contact her relatives and asked Lin Qingran to pick her up. The owner had no choice but to call her.

This is not the first time. Bai Shirui loves to play and drink, and it is common for her to get drunk.

If she played like this, she would definitely be scolded by Bai's mother when she got home, so she liked to look for Lin Qingran when she was drunk.

Lin Qingran arrived at the commercial building where the bar was located and drove into the underground parking lot.

She had neither the time nor the energy to put on makeup, so she wore a mask covering half of her face and a brown windbreaker on the outside, which made her figure look slim.

Lin Qingran was already a patient, and now she had to pick up a drunkard. Lin Qingran had no time to take care of other things. She planned to find Bai Shirui as soon as possible and go home.

She took the car keys and cell phone, got out of the car with a cold expression, and was about to close the door when a familiar black luxury car slowly stopped in the parking space opposite.

It seems to be Gu Yichen’s car.

Lin Qingran stopped for two seconds and saw a pair of fair and delicate hands push open the car door.

The person who got out of the car was Xia Shu.

She was dressed very delicately and her makeup was meticulous.

Seeing Lin Qingran standing here, Xia Shu forced a smile.

"Lin Qingran."

Lin Qingran ignored him and turned to walk towards the elevator.

Xia Shu caught up with her and followed her into the elevator, looking at her with a half-smile, "Which floor do you want to go to? I'll press the button for you."

Lin Qingran raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at her, "12th floor."

"What a coincidence! I'm also going to the 12th floor. You said we were going to... could it be the same place?"

As she spoke, Xia Shu reached out and pressed "12".

Lin Qingran watched her movements, and seemed to see something glowing flashing before her eyes.

When I looked closely, I realized it was the ring on Xia Shu's hand.

"This ring was given to me by Gu Yichen." Xia Shu noticed her gaze and raised a hint of pride at the corner of her mouth. "I asked the store to customize it a month ago, and I just picked it up yesterday."

When Lin Qingran saw the style of the ring clearly, she felt a chill in her heart.

Haha, I customized it a month ago.

So this is ah.

In her previous life, she wore this ring for four whole years!

At her wedding with Gu Yichen, Gu Yichen put this ring on her finger, exactly the same one. At that time, she even asked Gu Yichen why the ring looked too small on her hand.

At that time, Gu Yichen only said that he had miscalculated the size of her finger and told her not to take it to heart and not to wear it if it was uncomfortable.

But how could she bear to do that? Even though it was tight on her wrist, she still wore it every day.

Only now did I realize that this ring originally belonged to Xia Shu.

Lin Qingran took a deep breath and unconsciously touched her wedding ring on her left hand, which Lu Siheng had prepared for her.

This one is simpler and more low-key than the one Gu Yichen gave her. It is similar to Lu Siheng’s personality and more in line with her aesthetics...

"Gu Yichen said he would marry me after this busy period."

After Xia Shu finished speaking, she looked at Lin Qingran with a smile, with a hint of provocation in her eyes.

Lin Qingran has always had everything to be proud of, including family background, beauty, wealth and status.

But Gu Yichen's heart, which was what Lin Qingran wanted but couldn't get, belonged to her, Xia Shu.

She thought that after hearing this, Lin Qingran's eyes would flash with pain as before.

But Xia Shu stared at her for a long time, and saw that there was no expression on Lin Qingran's face, as if she didn't hear what she said.

"Ding!"

The elevator door opened.

Lin Qingran didn't even look at her, and walked away gracefully with his straight figure.

Xia Shu's expression froze for a second, and the next second, she gritted her teeth.

Lin Qingran's nonchalant demeanor made her feel suffocated. Every word she said seemed like hitting cotton and she couldn't vent it out at all!

After getting out of the elevator, Lin Qingran discovered that the entire twelfth floor was occupied by the BL bar.

She quickly found Bai Shirui sitting in a seat in the corner.

Bai Shirui was already extremely drunk. She was lying on the table, her little face flushed and she reeked of alcohol.

Lin Qingran frowned when she saw her like this.

"You are Miss Bai's friend, right?" The bar owner came over. "Miss Bai drank too much today. I really had no choice but to call you."

Lin Qingran said calmly, "I'm sorry to trouble you. I'll take her away now."

She tugged at Bai Shirui's arm.

Bai Shirui was as heavy as a pig and refused to get up. She kept mumbling something that Lin Qingran couldn't understand.

Lin Qingran squatted down and pinched her face, "Bai Shirui, come on, come back with me."

Bai Shirui looked at her dazedly, hugged her arm and rubbed it, "Ran Ran...Ran...Ran..."

Lin Qingran's eyes flashed with helplessness, and she responded calmly, "It's me, I'm here to pick you up."

She struggled to help Bai Shirui up and carried her to the door of the bar...

Not far away, Gu Yichen was watching this scene.

He noticed Lin Qingran the moment she entered the bar. He watched her take Bai Shirui away and her figure disappeared from his sight.
