Creation's grace

On the eighteenth floor of the UP Building, Ran Jin's office is here.

The appearance of Chi Yu caught the whole group off guard.

Some middle-level and high-level employees and old employees recognized her immediately, and put down their work to go to receive her. The newcomers were a little confused, and they didn't know who was coming. There was such a big battle.

Manager Xu from the planning department invited Chi Yu to the living room and said, "Mr. Ran just went out for something, so I'll contact her right now."

Chi Yu smiled lightly at Manager Xu: "I'll wait for Sister Ran in her office."

As the second miss of the Chi family, not to mention the former chairman, even the current Ran Jin holds her in the palm of his hand. The entire UP building is still closely connected with the surname "Chi" for the time being. Where does the second miss want to go? , it is impossible for Manager Xu not to agree.

Manager Xu took her to Ran Jin's office, and brought her a cup of hot tea himself.

As soon as he came out, he was stopped by Xiao Yang from the same department.

"Sister Xu, sister Xu, who is that person? Why did you let her into Mr. Ran's office?"

Manager Xu patted Xiao Yang on the forehead with the folder he had just picked up, pulled her to an empty corner, and said softly to her, "That's Mr. Chi's younger sister who has been studying overseas."

"Ah? That's her?"

Even if he is a new employee of the Chi Group, he has never met Chi Yu himself, but the chairman has a sister who is as distressed as an eyeball, and everyone has heard of it.

As for my younger sister, I have always only heard about her and never seen the deity. Now that there is always something wrong with Chi, and there are many gossips, the younger sister directly kills me. I don’t know what will happen. Xiao Yang’s mind is full of blood. fishy.

Chi Yu walked into Ran Jin's office, facing south, standing in front of the bright and quiet floor-to-ceiling windows, one could have a panoramic view of the entire city's highway network.

On Ran Jin's desk, besides the working documents and computer, there is also a photo frame.

There is a picture of Zhang Xueshan embedded in the photo frame. There are many peaks and peaks of the snow-capped mountains, and the corners of the mountains stretch out, forming a deep embrace. There is a lake as blue as a gem in the embrace.

Holding the photo frame, Chi Yu felt that this scenery was somewhat familiar to her, but she couldn't remember what it was at the moment, maybe she had seen it in a documentary before.

Put down the photo frame, sit on the chair, and turn on Ran Jin's personal computer.

Unsurprisingly, a password is required.

Chi Yu quickly entered her sister's birthday, wrong.

Entering Ran Jin's birthday again is not correct.

Hovering her fingertips on the keyboard, after thinking for a while, she entered the date when Ran Jin came to Chi's house, and all the important days she could think of for Ran Jin and her sister.

All wrong.

She came here specifically to see what she could dig out from Ran Jin's computer.

Qi Tong is right, the call my sister made with her last breath before she died did not reach her, but called Ran Jin. It is possible that my sister really has a deep attachment to Ran Jin. Chi Yu has seen it all these years and is not surprised.

So, what about Ran Jin?

Thinking of Ran Jin, what Chi Yu thought of was her never-smiling face and her pair of eyes as silent as empty mountains.

Chi Yu has always felt that although Ran Jin is gentle and omnipotent to her family, it has always been difficult to understand her true heart.

What happened to her sister this time made Ran Jin's attitude even more confusing.

Perhaps private computers can leave some emotional traces.

With the mentality of giving it a try, Chi Yu chose a time when Ran Jin was not around to come to her office, but unfortunately she couldn't unlock the computer.

Chi Yu leaned back heavily in his chair, feeling a little restless.

Passwords have a certain symbolic meaning for most people, and they are mostly days that can be remembered instinctively without having to think about it at any time.

If the password is really my sister's birthday, it means that Ran Jin still has some feelings for her sister.

But she tried all the dates about her sister, but she couldn't unlock Ran Jin's computer.

Therefore, Ran Jin's password may not have anything to do with her sister.

Thinking of the policeman surnamed Lu, Chi Yu's face turned ugly again.

Before Ran Jin came back, Chi Yu came out of her office.

Manager Xu came up and said, "Mr. Ran said she won't be back in a while, so I asked you to wait a little longer."

Chi Yu: "I have to leave first."

"Oh, oh, then you..."

Before he could say the word "walk slowly", Chi Yu had already opened the door and left the office area.

When Chi Yu went downstairs, she felt a little dizzy, and she didn't know if it was because the fever hadn't subsided, or if she had hypoglycemia again.

The bottom three floors of the building are shopping malls, and she plans to go to the convenience store to buy some chocolates.

Passed by a cafe on the way to the convenience store.

Chi Yu stepped back after walking past the coffee shop, looked in through the glass window, and she was sure that the person sitting in the coffee shop was Ran Jin.

Ran Jin was wearing a formal black work suit, her face was usually cold, and her straight long black hair was draped over her shoulders, making her look very unapproachable.

Chi Yu recognized the person sitting opposite her as Ran Jin's mother, He Zhi.

Chi Yutong has met He Zhi twice, once at the UP building and once at Chi's house, both times she came to find Ran Jin on her own initiative, but Ran Jin ignored her and left her out for an hour or so, knowing that She couldn't see her daughter anymore, so she left.

Speaking of which, Chi Yu is not a person who is very sensitive to the appearance of others, not to mention that she only glanced at He Zhi twice when she saw He Zhi.

But He Zhi made a deep impression on her.

Apart from the fact that she is the real mother that Ran Jin never wanted to see, there is another point that is her strange dress.

He Zhi likes a very white and thick foundation, which makes her face look pale and not alive.

Sunglasses are standard equipment, and she never took them off no matter indoors or outdoors.

No matter how hot the day is, she will wrap herself in three layers and wear a sun hat with a wide brim.The soft brim of the hat often hangs over the face, covering most of the face, and the wideness always reminds Chi Yu of the restaurant that likes to serve two mouthfuls of salad on a huge plate.

Chi Yu was very curious about He Zhi, and once asked her sister why she wanted to dress up like this.

I remember my sister said with a smile at that time: "Maybe there is something shameful."

At that time, Chi Yu didn't hear the sarcasm in her sister's words, but now that she thinks about it, the former self really didn't hear anything out of the window.

Although it is winter, the heating in the shopping mall is very high, and Chi Yu, who has never been sweaty, is a bit dry, and He Zhi in the coffee shop is still wearing a down jacket, wrapping his whole body like a vampire .

It turned out that Ran Jin had come to see her mother.

Combined with Ran Jin's previous attitude of avoiding He Zhi, today's meeting made Chi Yu very curious.

She walked into the coffee shop quietly, and silently sat in the booth behind Ran Jin.

The conversation between the two has been halfway through, and without knowing what happened before, He Zhi suddenly held Ran Jin's hand, and said in a low voice, "It's been so many years ago... At that time, there was nothing we could do. Do you still hate us?"

Chi Yu thought to herself that Ran Jin had a problem with her family, and her parents should have done something to apologize to her back then.

Ran Jin withdrew his hand and said in the same dispassionate voice as the news broadcast: "Ms. He, I think you made a mistake."

Ms. He?

Chi Yu couldn't help thinking about this strange title.

As far as Chi Yu knew, Ran Jin never liked to talk to her mother, and drove her away with cold violence almost without saying a word. It was also the first time Chi Yu saw her face-to-face with He Zhi.

It seems that the relationship between Ran Jin and Ran's family is so deep-rooted that even his own mother didn't call out, and was replaced by a very unfamiliar "Ms. He".

Chi Yu was attentively waiting to hear their next conversation, but she didn't expect that Ran Jin didn't talk to He Zhi again.

"Little encounter?"

Ran Jin's voice sounded from behind Chi Yu.

When Chi Yu looked back, Ran Jin poked his head out from the back of the sofa behind him, looking at her curiously.

Ran Jin, who spotted Chi Yu from the reflection of the glass window, asked, "Why are you here?"

Chi Yu's eavesdropping was discovered on the spot, so he had no choice but to show a cute smile, pretending to be surprised: "Hey? Sister Ran, I went to your office and waited for a long time and you didn't come back. I was thirsty, so I came down to drink something. "

Chi Yu's eyes collided with He Zhi's eyes looking at her through the sunglasses in the air.

Even when Chi Yu saw Ran Jin again, she felt very conflicted in her heart, but in order not to show her flaws, she got up and sat next to Ran Jin, and politely called He Zhi: "Hello, Auntie."

"Hello..." He Zhi's voice was a little hesitant, and he quickly said, "Then let's chat. Xiao Jin, your birthday is coming soon, if you have time, remember to go home and have a meal. Me and... your father both really miss you."

This parental affection did not receive any response, Ran Jin acted as if he hadn't heard it, and he didn't even refuse on the spot, only treating He Zhi as air.

He Zhi smiled awkwardly at Chi Yu, got up and left quickly.

He Zhi left too quickly, even a little evasive.

Chi Yu was still thinking about what He Zhi said just now, but Ran Jin had already changed his tone, and asked Chi Yu softly:

"Has your fever subsided? How did you run outside?"

"It's all right." Chi Yu thought of Ran Jin in the surveillance, and his voice became cold uncontrollably.

Ran Jin didn't immediately believe her words, but carefully observed her face: "The face is still red, it should be that the fever has not subsided."

She raised her hand and asked, "Shall I touch your forehead?"

When Chiyu was ill before, as an elder, it was normal for Ran Jin to feel the temperature of her forehead with his palm, and he never asked.

But now, probably because she has broken up with Chi Li and is no longer Chi Yu's "sister-in-law", or it may be due to other reasons, she began to seek Chi Yu's opinion before touching Chi Yu.

Chi Yu didn't want Ran Jin to touch her, her hands were stained with her sister's blood, even though they looked white and slender now, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, Chi Yu could always smell a bloody smell that made her uncomfortable.

"No need." Chi Yu tried to restrain his emotions, "I'm fine."

Ran Jin withdrew his hand in a little embarrassment: "It's fine."

Chi Yu knew that Ran Jin had worked hard with her sister in the mall for so many years, and she was not an ordinary person with slow thinking. If the disgust was too obvious, it might make her more defensive, which would not be conducive to what she wanted to do in the future.

Different from the ice-cold attitude towards He Zhi, Ran Jin will still take the initiative to find a topic even if he is rejected once when facing Chi Yu:

"Even if the fever has just gone down, it's not good to run around outside all the time. It's too cold, I'll take you back."

Chi Yu said: "The company still has a lot of things to do, I'll just go back by myself."

"It's okay, I'll drive you home and return to the company later."

Chi Yu didn't have a car in China, and she drove her sister's car during the time she came back.

However, Ran Jin, a busy man, volunteered to be her driver, and he still cared about her like an elder, pampering her, which just created an opportunity for her to be alone, and Chi Yu planned to use this opportunity to trick Ran Jin.

But there is not much time on the way home.

After adjusting her mentality, Chi Yu took Ran Jin's arm and said softly as before:

"Sister Ran, I really don't want to cook anymore. Aunt Su cooked a large table of food when I went out. I didn't have an appetite at that time, so I ate a little. I'm a little hungry now. Sister Ran, will you take me to dinner?"

"Huh? What do you want to eat?" Ran Jin's voice changed slightly because of Chi Yu's sudden approach, but Chi Yu didn't notice it.

"Eating the Chinese food upstairs is the one my sister and you often took me to eat. These years, my stomach has been tortured abroad, so I just want to eat authentic Kung Pao chicken."

"Okay, let's go."

Chi Yu and Ran Jin went upstairs together, Chi Yu held Ran Jin's arm the whole time, to show that there was no barrier between the two, and tried to make Ran Jin relax his vigilance.

Chi Yu planned to use the meal time to trick Ran Jin's words.

Ran Jin was stuck by Chi Yu, and could always smell the scent of perfume and the freshness of shampoo from her body. His back was straight, like a red flag guard about to raise the national flag.

The only difference is that she almost turned the corner several times.
