"ah?"

Ning Ran was stunned and hurriedly waved his hands to show that the two of them were not in that kind of relationship: "No, no, I..."

"He is, he is..." Ningran got stuck, swallowed his saliva and said again: "He is my male friend."

The expressions of Jing Nanxuan and Jiang Qingyuan are particularly wonderful.

Seeing the way Jing Nanxuan looked at Ning Ran, Jiang Qingyuan smiled meaningfully at him: "Young man, it seems you have to work harder."

"Grandma Jiang..." Ning Ran blushed and took her hand, her low voice sounded a bit nervous.

She and Jing Nanxuan finally cleared up the misunderstanding, so this is not a joke.

Jiang Qingyuan thought she was shy, stopped teasing, and pulled her back to walk out of the crowd.

Back then, Ning Ran and Shao Zitong made a mistake, and the whole village heard about Ning Ran's return to a wealthy family.

"Xiaoran, you've finally come back after so many years, do you still remember me?" said a woman in a yellow dress.

"Aunt Zhang?" Ning Ran was a little unsure. Seeing the woman's happy expression, she praised: "She's getting more and more beautiful. I almost didn't recognize her."

The woman grinned: "You still know how to speak!"

Then a man pushed the woman away and asked her with a smile: "Xiao Ran, I am Uncle Li. You haven't seen me for so long. Am I more handsome?"

Before Ning Ran could answer, the woman who was pushed away and almost fell down wearing high heels was very dissatisfied: "Li Datou, can you be a little self-aware?"

"Why are you talking like a bitch?"

Seeing that the two of them could not say more than two words and were about to start a quarrel like before, Ning Ran quickly stood in the middle: "Okay, Aunt Zhang."

She looked at the woman first, and then said to the man: "Yes, Uncle Li is indeed getting more and more handsome."

"Did you hear that?" The man raised his eyebrows at the woman proudly.

The woman complained: "Xiaoran, you are beautiful, why do you have such bad taste?"

"..."

There is no doubt that it was another fight, and Ning Ran was finally rescued by Jiang Qingyuan.

Jing Nanxuan watched the whole process from the sidelines. He could feel that although Ning Ran was in a difficult position being sandwiched between two adults, she was truly happy at this time.

Seeing Jiang Qingyuan beaming with joy because of Ning Ran's return, some people were also happy for her and shouted in passing: "Old Jiang, your granddaughter is back and you can't hold a banquet tonight?"

"Okay, everyone will come to my house for dinner tonight!" Jiang Qingyuan greeted.

Listening to everyone cheering for free meals, Ning Ran frowned and shook Jiang Qingyuan's hand, with a worried tone: "Grandma Jiang, I'll be leaving soon, no need to bother."

"What's more, you're older, so don't mess around, you get tired easily. How about this, I'll pay for a reservation outside, and in your name, you can go eat there tonight, okay?"

"No!" Jiang Qingyuan refused. The old lady was clever and retorted: "I am older, but I am very agile. Isn't it you and your boyfriend... your friend who can make it in two hours?"

A full banquet between Man and Han, besides, how can the food outside be as delicious as what I cook?"

The old lady spoke so fast that she almost said all the thoughts in her mind. Fortunately, her mind also moved quickly, and she quickly turned around after thinking for less than half a second.

Ning Ran was a little helpless and didn't know why, so she looked at Jing Nanxuan. In her impression, he had always been someone who either didn't speak or spoke shockingly. She hoped that he could find an excuse to persuade her.

However, when Jing Nanxuan caught her gaze, the calm cold water in his eyes only rippled slightly.

The next second, he said "hmm" to the old lady, indicating that he had no objection.

"Look at this person!" Jiang Qingyuan raised her nose at Ning Ran when she saw someone standing on the same front as her.

The helplessness on Ning Ran's face increased even more.

"Okay, you have to eat before leaving tonight, there is no need to discuss."

Seeing Jiang Qingyuan giving orders, Ning Ran could only raise one hand in a surrender gesture: "Okay, okay, I will listen to you."

"Why is it so lively?" At this time, a male voice sounded from the direction they were heading.

Ning Ran saw a middle-aged man wearing a dark T-shirt looking at the Maybach parked in front of his home, and then looked in their direction.

There were obviously many people around, but they caught each other's eyes.

After many years, many wrinkles appeared on the middle-aged man's face. Perhaps it was due to illness, and he looked a little vicissitudes of life.

He didn't recognize her, he just thought she looked familiar.

Ning Ran had already taken a step forward, but unfortunately she hesitated to speak when she looked at the man.

What should we call this situation now?

Jiang Qingyuan was worried for the two of them. She said "Ouch" and shouted to the man: "Lao Shao, Xiao Ran, can't you recognize me?"

Shao Yucheng was stunned for three seconds, and then slowly looked at Ning Ran's face again, as if it was a lifetime ago that the girl who had been following him all day when he was a child had grown up.

"Xiao...Xiaoran?" He was shocked. Unexpectedly, as soon as he called out this nickname, there was a "pop" behind him, and a plastic basin specially designed for holding dog food fell to the ground.

Everyone present heard the sound and left. Yan Siying stood at the door of her home, looking at the scene in front of her in disbelief, and the word "Xiao Ran" echoed in her ears.

"A Ying!" Seeing her suddenly running home, Shao Eucheng quickly chased after her.

The two of them left her sight one after another, and Ning Ran was a little at a loss.

Suddenly, there was a reassuring warmth on her shoulder. Jing Nanxuan patted her shoulder. He didn't know if he was following her with his eyes, but this silent comfort also made her feel a lot more comfortable.

Jiang Qingyuan looked at the two of them, sighed, held the girl's wrist and led her in the direction where the couple left: "Let's go."

"..."

Even after getting permission to return to her original home, Ning Ran still felt unreal when looking at the living room that was not there before and sitting on the sofa.

Yan Siying poured tea for them respectively and was tinkering with something in the kitchen at this moment.

Shao Eucheng was sleeping on an upright recliner, reading the newspaper, and stayed in the living room with them without saying a word. More importantly, it had been too long, and he didn't know what to say to the daughter he had raised for so long but found out that she was not his biological daughter.

, but when she left, the couple didn't miss her for a moment, not to mention...it was just that she came back too suddenly, and he couldn't find a topic for a while.

The atmosphere gradually reached a deadlock.

Jiang Qingyuan also felt embarrassed and couldn't say anything. In the end, Ning Ran herself broke the silence: "How is your health during this time?"

Shao Eucheng has never been able to read newspapers, so as soon as Ning Ran spoke, he immediately looked at her: "Well, it's good. You don't have to worry."

"Okay, okay, I fainted last week and almost called an ambulance. I had a heart attack!" Yan Siying heard what he said in the kitchen and said angrily when she came out.
