I took out the knife, but Crazy Patch held my waist and acted coquettishly

"You can still be so leisurely back in Jinghai. It seems that the Zhao family has taken care of it."

During the meal, Xie Lan suddenly remembered something about the Zhao family.

Zhong Liyu: "Alan really cares about me."

Xie Lan, who was used to it, didn't even bother to roll his eyes: "You can solve the troubles at Zhongli's house by yourself."

She didn't want to take time off to deal with it.

Zhongli Xun had specifically looked for her before. After what happened, the Zhongli family would definitely put the blame on her.

They will definitely take action.

Zhong Liyu once again heard Xie Lan's repulsive words towards Zhongli's family and smiled: "I will take care of it, A Lan, should we have a good meal and stop talking about these unpleasant topics?"

"Is there anything else you and I can talk about?"

"Of course, let's talk about our future," Zhong Liyu couldn't help but look forward to his and Xie Lan's future: "Have you ever thought about our future?"

"We have no future," Xie Lan said again in a disgraceful way.

Zhong Liyu felt helpless: "Can't Ah Lan speak properly?"

"I'm telling the truth," Xie Lan said quietly: "Zhong Liyu, what do you think our future will be like? Or, do you really think we will have a future?"

Zhong Liyu looked at her for a while and said, "We can't be hostile in the future."

"That's not necessarily the case," Xie Lan's words touched people's hearts.

Zhong Liyu sighed helplessly: "Alan, I meant what I said. I regret it. I regret making that promise."

"I think you did the right thing," Xie Lan stared at him: "I really didn't expect you to be such an idealistic person before."

"Does A Lan think I'm unrealistic?"

"Is not it?"

Zhong Liyu looked at her deeply: "What is A Lan afraid of?"

"what?"

"Since that day, Ah Lan seems to be running away from something," Zhong Liyu leaned forward slightly, "So, what exactly is Ah Lan afraid of?"

This is the third time Zhong Liyu has asked her.

Xie Lan pursed his lips and avoided his gaze: "I'm not afraid, it's just..."

"If it's because of how we started, then I can atone."

Xie Lan was shocked and stopped looking at Zhong Liyu: "You are not guilty."

Talk about atonement.

Zhong Liyu forced her to express her innermost thoughts by glaring at her, but failed.

Xie Lan was unwilling to speak.

He found that he was so desperate.

Desperately want to be with Xie Lan.

Not together in a certain sense, but the kind of heart-to-heart connection.

He is a greedy person.

What is important is not just her as a person, but also her heart.

Xie Lan was unwilling to open her heart in front of him and accept him.

Then being tied to her person would make him feel empty.

Zhong Liyu couldn't help but laugh at himself.

After being with Xie Lan, he tasted what emptiness was.

"I will wait until the day A Lan is willing," Zhong Liyu relaxed his body and leaned back in his seat: "Can you eat well now?"

Xie Lan wanted to roll his eyes again: "Who on earth suddenly said something incomprehensible?"

Zhong Liyu smiled fondly: "It's me."

Xie Lan looked away awkwardly.

Zhong Liyu liked the atmosphere of talking and eating with Xie Lan very much, which made him feel satisfied.Even if he and Xie Lan argue about some non-nutritious topics or nonsense, he thinks it is good!
"Grandpa wants to go there tomorrow, and I will accompany him first." When he came out, Xie Lan subconsciously reported the itinerary to Zhong Liyu.

After saying this, Xie Lan felt awkward again.

Zhong Liyu seemed not to notice anything strange and said, "I'll ask Su Mingchong to accompany you there."

"No, it's more useful if he stays with you. I can just take my own people there," Xie Lan thought, thinking that he would have to divide some people to do the work, and there would definitely be insufficient manpower.

Su Mingchong is one of his right-hand men, and he must have a lot of tasks to share.

It's temporarily quiet now, and there won't be anything that they need to solve.

"Alan, do you want to stay there?"

"We need to stay for a few days," Xie Lan followed him into the car.

Zhong Liyu thought that Zhongli's family would soon send someone, so Xie Lan could stay at the old site of Huo's family for a few days to avoid it.

*
The next day.

Zhong Liyu did not go to the company, but stayed specifically to arrange a vehicle for Xie Lan to go there.

Watched them leave Jinghai before heading to the company.

Su Mingchong still followed him, "The Jie family has made arrangements. Tang Yun is hanging on, but there is nothing to ask. The Jie family has requested a consultation for you."

"Consultation?" Zhong Liyu laughed when he heard this statement: "Their statement is quite high-sounding."

"Isn't it that they stayed here to do this for us just to study the sick body?" Su Mingchong said, "You also know that."

"You can arrange the time," Zhong Liyu clicked his tongue impatiently, and then said, "Keep an eye on those two people from the Jie family. Don't let them run away to A Lan again."

Inadvertently, he ran to see Xie Lan again and said some inexplicable words to influence Xie Lan.

Seeing that Zhong Liyu's eyes were a little gloomy, Su Mingchong sighed inwardly.

Zhong Liyu was completely trapped and couldn't get out.

It’s a foregone conclusion.

The only thing they can do as subordinates is to ensure that Xie Lan's affairs will not harm Zhong Liyu, so that they can live together with He Meimei.

*
Xie Lan was still accompanied by Chen Rong and several others, but this time there were a few more people.

It was already late at night when we arrived at the old site of the Huo family.

After arranging Lu Haili's residence, Xie Lan sent a message to Zhong Liyu.

After the news was sent out, Xie Lan froze again.

Why did I subconsciously tell him that he was safe?
Zhong Liyu sent it quickly, as if he was specially guarding her with the news of her safety.

This made Xie Lan feel even more awkward.

He threw the phone aside as if to escape, hugged the quilt and fell asleep.

When he got up the next day, Lu Haili couldn't wait to watch the construction of the Huo family.

Xie Lan had no choice but to find a wheelchair and push him there.

As soon as I got closer, I heard the sound of construction inside, transport vehicles coming in and out, and cranes at work.

The number of workers is increasing day by day, and the hollowed out places have almost been filled.

Xie Lan asked people to leave space to build a basement below, which also saved a lot of soil, since it was already hollowed out anyway.

Lu Haili stared blankly at the construction scene, recalling the Huo family back then, and his eyes couldn't help but feel warm.

Unlike other families, the Huo family does not have a large residence in the world of strangers. There is only one hall, which is specially used for temporary accommodation for people returning home.

The place where I really live is still here.

Everything is studied here as well.

Otherwise, they are scattered everywhere.

In the world of strangers, the Huo Family Hall is an empty shell.

So it is still dilapidated and dilapidated.

Because there really isn't anything valuable there, the strangers don't bother digging around. (End of chapter)
