Be gentle

The fact that Xiao Zhen was going to leave made Huaran feel a little melancholy, Bai Shuyi probably sensed this, and asked her to stay and sleep together with a stern face at night.

Although Huaran was a bit troubled on the surface, she was actually very happy in her heart.

"Ranran, before Aunt Xiao leaves, let's treat her to a meal together? It's a practice for her."

"What the hell are you planning?"

Huaran has already noticed that Bai Shuyi used all of his cleverness and wit on himself.

Bai Shuyi "hehe" smiled and hugged her, "What's the idea, I just want to thank her for giving me the gift."

"Then why don't you invite her yourself?"

It's not that Huaran doesn't want to treat guests, she just thinks that Bai Shuyi is too spooky, and she always leads her by the nose, so she deliberately speaks ironically.

"Hey...then it's just the two of us eating." Bai Shu kissed her coquettishly, loudly on purpose.

Huaran was so tired of her that she hugged her helplessly, "Okay, I'll talk to her and see when she's free."

Even if they are just teachers and students, she should really treat Xiao Zhen to a meal to thank her.

"Hey hey, Ranran you are the best."

Since you want to treat guests, it is natural to invite them in advance.Since time was running out, Huaran was not too awkward, and invited Xiao Zhen the next day.

The time was set at noon on Saturday, and Xiao Zhen would pick them up at that time.

After receiving Huaran's invitation, Xiao Zhen was immersed in joy all day long.Having such a breakthrough in her relationship with Huaran before returning to England also made her full of hope for the future.Even though she knew that Bai Shuyi had contributed to the incident, the first time her daughter took the initiative to invite her to dinner still made her overjoyed, and she even called Kevin in the UK, regardless of the jet lag.

Kevin yawned and congratulated her, "That's great, I just said it will be fine."

Xiao Zhen heard the sleepiness in his voice, and felt a little embarrassed.

"Are you woken up by me? I'm sorry, as soon as I'm happy..."

Kevin's voice cleared up, "No, I was getting up for a drink of water. I'm glad you thought of me right away."

Kevin always made no secret of his deep affection. Xiao Zhen used to be able to parry his offensive with indifference, but now she really feels the difficulty.

The relationship with Huaran can break the ice, and Kevin played a big role in this.He gave her support and encouragement, and helped her make suggestions. Unknowingly, she began to rely on him.

"After all, you have helped me so much, I think it is necessary to let you know..." Xiao Zhen explained her behavior, but her tone was a little guilty.

Kevin chuckled and said, "I know, but I'm glad you can think of me. By the way, you can send me the flight when the time comes, so I can pick you up... Dad and Mom miss you very much, say I want to have dinner with you when you come back."

"……it is good."

Since Kevin's transition, his mother's attitude has gradually changed.Regardless of her state of mind for the time being, Xiao Zhen's pressure is indeed much less.This time, he even proposed to have dinner with her, which might be a signal.

In the past, Xiao Zhen might refuse without hesitation.But now, she couldn't speak. Kevin has worked hard to this point, just waiting for her to take a small step.Her heart is also fleshy, and every time she rejects Kevin, she can feel the pain in her heart.

I feel that no one will love me that much, I feel that I am not worthy of happiness, and I feel that love is short-lived.But she never asked, or dared not ask herself, whether she liked him.

Didn't she feel sorry for Kevin?

Of course she did, but she was even more afraid that she would get hurt.

Kevin seemed to hear an unexpected answer, excitedly said: "Really? You really want to come? Great, great!"

Xiao Zhen felt sad and wronged for him, "You invited me so naturally, I thought you were sure, but you were so happy..."

Kevin was still excited, "Sophia, I'm not sure about you and me, I'm just talking big."

But those big words made Xiao Zhen believe them.I will eventually fall in love with him, choose him, and be willing to be with him.

"I don't seem to have taught you to brag."

"You haven't taught me to love you, but you can learn it by yourself! Oh, Sophia, where do you think our wedding will be better? Let me see when the latest schedule is at the castle, it's the best It can be done before winter, otherwise it will be too cold..."

Kevin has already started to think about the future, Xiao Zhen asked angrily and amusedly: "Kevin, what I agreed to just now was an invitation to have dinner together? It's not a marriage proposal or something..."

"Oh yes, that's right. Then I'll propose after you come back, please promise me!"

Being able to push a person who has always been romantic to such a point, Xiao Zhen felt that she was quite capable.

"Is there no need for a stage of love before a marriage proposal?"

"We can propose and then fall in love, it's not a problem, we still have a lifetime to talk, Sophia..."

Xiao Zhen listened to his unnutritious and out-of-the-ordinary words, but for some reason she listened with gusto.

"Okay, I can't talk to you anymore, I have a phone." The two chatted for more than half an hour, until Xiao Zhen's office phone interrupted the conversation.

Kevin reluctantly said, "Okay...then you work hard, I'll hang up first, love you."

Xiao Zhen answered the phone while shaking her head helplessly, "Hello?"

"Hello Director Xiao, this is the front desk. A gentleman named Xiao Junsheng is looking for you. He said it was your brother, and he must let me..."

Xiao Zhen originally thought that it was impossible for her to hear this name again in her life, but her life was always frightening.

"I don't know this person."

The front desk heard Xiao Zhen's tone was not very good, and said quickly: "Okay, sorry to bother you."

She originally thought that what this man said was unreliable. How could there be such a bloody thing as being separated for so many years?It's just that Xiao Junsheng looks gentle and well-mannered, and he also said that he is a university teacher. She is also afraid that she will miss such a thing as her brother and sister recognizing each other because of her own mistakes.

"How about it?"

Xiao Junsheng looked at the front desk expectantly.

"Sir, did you recognize the wrong person? Director Xiao said he didn't know you, I'm sorry, please go back."

Xiao Junsheng sighed, without being too entangled, "What I said is true, but... Thank you anyway, I will wait for her outside."

"This... I'm afraid it's not very good?"

"I won't bother you, thank you."

Seeing that he had a very good attitude at the front desk, he didn't look like a vexatious person, so he kindly reminded: "Director Xiao always goes directly to the parking lot after get off work, it's useless for you to wait here, you'd better go back."

Xiao Junsheng was stunned for a moment, then thanked: "That's right, thank you."

Huaran usually takes the shuttle bus back after get off work, and Bai Shu's family is not too far away from the company's location, and they can get there in ten minutes.The shuttle bus stops at the entrance of the company, every 15 minutes.

She got off work on time today, and saw a familiar person when she walked past the security room.The other party obviously also saw her, and greeted her first: "Huaran, you really work here."

"Ms. Xiao? Why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Huaran has almost forgotten what Xiao Junsheng said to herself at the beginning, because she was sure that Xiao Zhen was her mother, so she never thought about whether she was Xiao Junsheng's sister.

"Huaran, you, are you familiar with Xiao Zhen?"

But when she heard Xiao Zhen's name from him again, she remembered it.

"Miss Xiao, do you... still think she is your sister?"

Xiao Junsheng nodded, and said excitedly: "I'm sure she is my sister, she has misunderstood me and refused to see me, Huaran, can you help me..."

It was the first time Huaran had been his student for more than a year to see him so excited, but the appearance of an uncle out of nowhere made her feel too unreal.And since Xiao Zhen didn't want to see him, she always felt that it was not good for her to interfere.

"This……"

"I don't ask for anything else, I just want to solve the misunderstanding that year."

Huaran was in a dilemma when a car suddenly stopped beside the two of them.

Huaran recognized that it was Xiao Zhen's car, and before she could speak, the window had already been lowered.

"Fengsheng!"

When Xiao Junsheng called out Xiao Zhen's original name, Huaran finally confirmed that he was really her uncle.

Xiao Zhen glanced at him indifferently, and said to Hua Ran: "Xiao Ran, are you going home? I'll take you home."

Xiao Zhen has always been careful with her, this is the first time she proposed to send her home, Hua Ran immediately realized that she didn't want Xiao Junsheng to get in touch with her.She hesitated for a while, and finally got into Xiao Zhen's car.

"Fengsheng, I want to talk to you."

"We have nothing to talk about."

Xiao Junsheng held the door of the car and said anxiously: "I really didn't know anything at the time, and my father and mother did it without telling me. I didn't get married later, and I wanted to bring you back..."

Xiao Zhen sneered and asked, "Then why didn't you come? You're not married, where did the money go?"

Xiao Junsheng showed a bit of embarrassment and embarrassment, "But Dad's condition has worsened..."

"So it's not because of me that you didn't get married at all, but because you used the money to treat his illness. Have you been called a filial son again? You really feel at ease with the money from selling your sister."

Xiao Zhenyuan didn't want to talk about this in front of Huaran, but when Xiao Junsheng really appeared in front of her, all the fears, resentments and grievances all came up.

The brother she trusted so much eventually abandoned her.She waited in Huajia Village for a year, thinking that as long as Xiao Junsheng came to pick her up, she would still be willing to go back.But she finally recognized the hypocrisy of this person, and also recognized the reality that fate can only be fought against by herself.

The author has something to say: Xiao Zhen has investigated it long ago.
