Chapter 1152: Meeting, Very Strange
The old lady is a well-known philanthropist and entrepreneur in S country. She has even been met by the Queen.
Her death caused a sensation in S country.
Major news media rushed to report on it, and the whole country was mourning.
Mu Sihan was on a seven-day visit abroad and could not make it back in time for the old lady's funeral. He called Nan Zhi to go to the old lady's mourning hall to express his condolences.
Xia Yanran saw the news of the old lady's death on the news.
I still vividly remember the last time I saw the old lady in the capital. The old lady had a kind face and no pretentiousness.
It's only been a while, why are you gone now?
Nan Zhi looked at Xia Yanran, "There is something, Yanran, do you know?"
Xia Yanran looked at Nan Zhi with red eyes, "What's the matter?"
"The old lady left all her inheritance to Xiao Yi."
Xia Yanran opened her eyes slightly.
But then it became clear. Last time she followed Xiao Yi to see the old lady, and found that although the old lady talked about Xiao Yi, she still loved and valued him in her heart.
After all, he is the child that her only daughter loves the most.
"Xiao Yi suddenly transformed and became the fawning object of many wealthy and aristocratic people in the capital. Some people heard that he was not married yet, so they began to make plans for him. They heard that after the old lady's funeral, they would send their own girls to their homes. Let Xiao Yi choose."
When Xia Yanran heard this, she just nodded lightly.
Now that Xiao Yi has inherited the old lady's family business, he has become one of the richest people in country S. Who doesn't want to fawn over him?
"I'm afraid their wishes will all come true. There is someone beside Xiao Yi." Xia Yanran said in a voice that only she could hear.
Xia Yanran has not yet told Nan Zhi what happened between her and Xiao Yi, and she is tired of the entanglement between her and Xiao Yi, let alone her friends.
I don’t want to say it anymore and make my friends feel uncomfortable and regretful.
Let her bear those bad things silently!
Seeing that Xia Yanran was silent, Nan Zhi became confused as she was so smart and transparent, "What's wrong? Will you and Xiao Yi have any problems again? I asked you two, why are you still acting like adolescent children? The boss is not young anymore and needs to stabilize!"
Xia Yanran smiled bitterly, and then changed the subject, "The old lady's funeral is tomorrow, right? I want to go there to express my condolences."
Although it was inevitable to meet Xiao Yi and Yi Ran, the old lady still had hopes for her and Xiao Yi to live a good life. She wanted to see her off for the last time.
When Nan Zhi saw that Xia Yanran didn't want to talk about feelings anymore, she wisely didn't ask any more questions.
…
the next day.
Due to Nan Zhi's distinguished status, when going to the old lady's mourning hall, she had to be photographed by outside reporters, so Xia Yanran did not go with her.
Nan Zhi wore a black women's suit, her hair was solemnly pulled up, and was escorted by the royal guards into the mourning hall.
Xia Yanran walked through the ordinary guest aisle.
Entering the mourning hall and looking at the old lady's portrait, Xia Yanran looked solemn and sentimental.
After paying homage to the old lady, Xia Yanran walked to the family area to express condolences to the family members.
Xiao Yi and the housekeeper knelt in the family area. Xiao Yi's face was thin and tired, and his deep eyes had red bloodshot eyes that could not be ignored.
When Xia Yanran came over, Xiao Yi raised his head and looked at her.
He returned the greeting, his face and eyes were the same as when he was facing other guests, showing politeness and indifference amid his heavy sorrow.
Ever since Xia Yanran came over, Yiran had never taken his eyes off her.
Seeing the look in Xiao Yi and Xia Yanran's eyes when they looked at each other, Yiran's heart relaxed slightly.
When Xia Yanran left, she also saw Yiran.
Yiran didn't look at her, her eyes fell on Xiao Yi with deep admiration.
Xia Yanran's heart ached, so she left the mourning hall without staying too long.
…
The old lady's funeral was very grand, and Xiao Yi took care of it.
After a few days, he lost a lot of weight.
After the old lady's ashes were laid to rest, Xiao Yi stood alone in the cemetery.
Yiran was sitting in a black commercial car. Looking through the car window, he could only vaguely see Xiao Yi's tall and thin figure.
A man wearing a hat and a mask sat next to Yiran. He followed Yiran's line of sight and looked at the figure on the mountain, "What, you still want to keep him?"
Yiran's eyes narrowed slightly, "He has been hypnotized by me, can I spare his life?"
"The old lady has left. If you still keep Xiao Yi, do you plan to let him develop a relationship with the old lady's lawyers and veterans? People who know him now have stayed away from him. If you don't do it now, you will do it later. , even if our plan succeeds, it will arouse others' suspicion!"
Yi Ran bit her lip hard.
She was really reluctant to get rid of Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi was the first man she fell in love with in her life. She couldn't get it after asking for it. After all the hardships, she got him and his child, but he couldn't live.
Uncomfortable tears welled up in Yiran's eyes.
Seeing her reaction, the man next to her sneered, "You're not expecting that he will fall in love with you one day, are you? No matter how much you look like Xia Yanran, you are just her substitute. In this world, only money can It’s the most reliable thing.”
"When we get the old lady's property, what kind of man do you want?"
Yiran looked down at his belly, his voice choked with sobs, "But, I already have his child."
"You'd better abort the child."
Yiran's pupils shrank violently, and she protected her lower abdomen, "I don't want to abort the child. I really like him. I can agree to your request, but I want to keep the child!"
"It's up to you. As long as he dies, you can keep his blood if you want."
Yi Ran nodded with tears streaming down his face.
…
The old lady passed away. After the Tang Dynasty learned the news, he also came to attend the old lady's funeral.
After Yi Ran returned from the cemetery, he told Tang Chao a task.
Xiao Yi came back in the evening, and Tang Chao asked his servants to prepare some of Xiao Yi's favorite side dishes.
"Brother Xiao, I know you feel uncomfortable. My brother will stay with you tonight. We won't go home until we get drunk!"
Xiao Yi glanced at Tang Chao, his throat a little hoarse, "Okay."
Tang Chao opened the wine and filled Xiao Yi's and his own glasses.
"Brother Xiao, you have inherited the old lady's inheritance. It will take some time to take over here. Don't worry, I will take good care of the company in City B."
Xiao Yi and Tang Chao clinked their glasses and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. To be honest, Brother Xiao, you have transformed into a wealthy boss. Brother, I am so happy for you."
The two drank for more than half an hour. Xiao Yi felt a little uncomfortable. He asked the housekeeper to come over and help him go upstairs to rest.
Tang Chao looked at Xiao Yi's back, which was unsteady when he walked. He frowned and felt a suffocating discomfort in his heart unconsciously.
