give me years of peace

Chapter 102 Don't Try to Escape
Thinking of this, Du Anran's cell phone rang, and she looked down, it was Xin Zimo.She smiled awkwardly at her mother and ran into her room. She answered the phone and said in a low voice, "Mr. Xin..."

Xin Zimo frowned: "In the future, no outsiders will be present, so don't call me Mr. Xin!"

Du Anran thought, Xin Zimo is getting more and more unreasonable, what else can she call him if she doesn't call him Boss Xin.

On the other hand, Xin Zimo, who had just returned home on the other end of the phone, raised the corners of his lips, looked at the sky full of stars outside the window, and said, "Call me Zimo. Of course, if you don't mind, call me husband, and I will gladly accept it."

"Shameless!" But Du Anran didn't dare to yell out these two words, he clearly thought so in his heart, but what he said was, "I'd better call Mr. Xin, I... after all, I'm an employee of Xin's... "

"You can call me whatever you want!" Xin Zimo was a little angry, why was he so wordy.

"Oh, oh...Zi...Mo..." Since he gave her a court summons, she never called him that again.Picking up these two words now, I feel in a trance that a long time has passed.

The vicissitudes of life, that's about it.

It's just that since she uttered these two words, they no longer have the tenderness and deep love of the past, but they are all far-fetched.Xin Zimo frowned even deeper, but it didn't matter, he would wait until that day, when he would melt all the ice in her heart, and wait for her to call him "Zimo" willingly.

Hearing that there was no sound from the other end of the phone for a long time, Du Anran thought that Xin Zimo had hung up the phone, so she asked tentatively in a low voice, "What do you need from me?"

"It's nothing, I just want you to prepare your luggage for the day after tomorrow. This time, I'm afraid you will spend some time in London."

"How long?" Du Anran couldn't help asking with concern, she had just promised her mother that she would go to the piano shop to take a substitute class.

"Slow as two months, as fast as half a month."

"It's been so long..." Two months, which means that she is likely to spend these two months in a foreign country with Xin Zimo?
"The scenery in London is very beautiful. It won't hurt you to accompany me."

It's been a long time since I went to London. Du Anran remembered that the last time he went to England for an exchange with Jin Shaonan because of his university, he didn't expect to go with Xin Zimo when he went again.

"If I remember correctly, Ms. Chi is studying in England, in fact..."

"Shut up!" Xin Zimo interrupted her with a low and hoarse voice.

Du Anran immediately fell silent, and sure enough, he turned his face by accident.He was able to drink and socialize with Chi Xue at the reception, and even hugged Chi Xue to talk and laugh happily, but he didn't allow her to say a word.

It's really faster to turn your face than to turn a book. She just thought that Chi Xue was more familiar with the UK, so she suggested this way. She didn't expect Xin Zimo to be ignorant of good people.

"Rest early, don't be late for me tomorrow!" Xin Zimo has a serious attitude. He has always been strict with Xin's employees in terms of discipline, but Du Anran is blatantly late.

"Understood." Du Anran said embarrassingly.

After hanging up the phone, Du Anran let out a long breath. Talking to Xin Zimo was really frightening.However, how to live this life in London, if it really lasts for two months, then the New Year will have to be spent with him.

Should she find an excuse...

Thinking of this, Du Anran walked back and forth in the room alone, yes, she could find an excuse to push it away.As long as it can be rejected, he will go to London in the next time, and she will have enough freedom.Although it is impossible to follow up his business developments in London, it can also give her the opportunity to act in the country.

But, what kind of reason should I find... With Xin Zimo's shrewdness, it seems that she can't find any reason.

Get ill?No, if he was sick, he just vetoed it on the grounds of going to London for a walk;
Not acclimatized?No, as long as she dares to disobey, he can immediately use various methods to make her submissive;
Missed flight time?

Du Anran suddenly thought that this was a good idea. Once he missed the flight time, his whole plan would have to be changed, and a punctual person like him couldn't make such a mistake because of waiting for her.

As long as he got on the plane and she didn't catch up, she could avoid him for a while.

How to miss flight time?Du Anran was in trouble again, oversleeping?No, he'll wake her up himself; too much to drink?No, not only would he tie her to London, but he would scold her severely; hide the night before?

Du Anran had a flash of inspiration, this...is a good idea!

But how to hide, where to hide?She thought of Xie Chenjin, Xie Chenjin is so smart, and now that they are allies, he must have a way.

She immediately called Xie Chenjin: "Xie Chenjin, it's me."

Xie Chenjin on the other end of the phone was drinking in the bar, he didn't expect Du Anran to call. "What's the matter?" Xie Chenjin asked.

Hearing the noisy voice on the phone, Du Anran raised his voice: "I have something to do with you. The day after tomorrow, Xin Zimo is going to take me to a signing reception in London. It's been too long and I don't want to go. Is there any place you can lend me to hide for a while?" hide?"

"My Miss An Ran, you can't hide in City A if you want. Moreover, this is a good opportunity. If you can seize it and report the situation in London at any time, you can have as much freedom as you want in the future. "Xie Chenjin said calmly and objectively, "If you don't go through a bit of cold, how can you get the fragrance of plum blossoms. Don't you think so?"

"You are only thinking about your bank, I... really don't want to go..." Du Anran lowered his head.She shouldn't have called Xie Chenjin in the first place. They were in a cooperative relationship and an interest relationship. He could only think of himself from the most comprehensive perspective, not her.

Xie Chenjin drank a glass of wine, and when he heard her words, his brows twitched.But after a while, he leaned lazily on the sofa and said slowly: "Then think about it for yourself, do you want freedom for a while, or forever?"

Du Anran gritted his teeth: "I understand."

When she helped Xie Chenjin, she helped herself. She had to learn to weigh the pros and cons.Just after she hung up Xie Chenjin's call, she found that Xin Zimo's call came in again.

"Who were you calling just now?" Xin Zimo took off his suit while making the phone call.

"Oh, it's Wanwan." Du Anran blurted out, for fear that he would catch the flaw.

Fortunately, he didn't delve into it, but said lightly: "I forgot to tell you, don't try to escape this reception, I will wait for you on time."

"Oh, I got it... I'll also prepare my luggage carefully." Du Anran seemed to have seen through his thoughts, his palms were sweaty.

She really suspected that Xin Zimo was turned into a fox, and he was smarter than anyone else.Even her little thoughts can be guessed clearly, then... Will he see the flaws in her contract with Xie Chenjin...

Suddenly she was sweating profusely. If he really found out, then she would have no choice but to die.

She could only pretend to be calm to comfort herself, he is not that smart.Because Xie Chenjin is also very smart, they are indistinguishable from each other.There is no way to draw conclusions about who wins and who loses.

After thinking about it this way, she settled down.

On the contrary, after Xin Zimo hung up the phone, he lay flat on the bed and stared at the crystal chandelier in a daze. When he opened and closed his eyes, it was Du Anran's figure.He has never missed someone like this, and it has only been a few hours since they were separated.

From rejection at the beginning to acceptance, and now to enjoyment, he wondered if this is the so-called "Linglong dice and red beans, deep love and no knowledge".

Xin Zimo smiled hypocritically, it turned out that he also felt this kind of upset.

He closed his eyes and shook his head slightly. This scene happened to be seen by Chi Xue who pushed the door in. She was stunned. She hadn't seen Xin Zimo smile like this for a long time.

The youthful and simple smile is not like the perfunctory at the reception, nor the sophistication and hidden knife in the mall.This smile is as gentle as the moonlight, but as dazzling as the sun.A white shirt and a good-looking face made the crystal glazed lamp lose its color.

How many years have you seen Xin Zimo like this?Chi Xue couldn't recover for a moment.

In my impression, he was taciturn, his face was always covered with gloom, and a look in his eyes was enough to make people tremble.Even later, he became the youngest president of City A, annexed countless large and medium-sized enterprises, worked hard alone in the shopping mall where people killed people, and established his own Xin Empire, but he never showed such a look on his face. smile.

In a trance, Chi Xue seemed to be in a dream.

"Brother Zimo." Chi Xue walked up to him.

Xin Zimo frowned and opened his eyes: "Haven't slept yet?"

Chi Xue put the milk cup in her hand on the table: "I boiled the milk, drink it while it's hot. It won't taste good when it's cold."

"En." Xin Zimo responded, but he didn't move.

Chi Xue was a little embarrassed. She lowered her head, as if hesitating: "Brother Zimo, remember to take care of yourself when you go abroad the day after tomorrow. My aunt asked me to go there together. Since you don't agree, I won't force it. I know this signing is very difficult. It's important, but your body is the most important thing. When it's cold, remember to add clothes, drink less coffee, and eat regularly. You don't have to worry at home, I will take good care of your aunt, so that you have no worries."

Xin Zimo twitched his brows, his eyes became darker, and it took him a while to move his lips: "Thank you."

Chi Xue smiled: "Brother Zimo, it is already the greatest kindness you have done to me by taking me in. All I have done is to share some of the burden for you. In fact, in the future, where I can help you, I will will do their best.”

Xin Zimo's heart couldn't be calmed down for a while, and his feelings for the Chi family were extremely complicated.

"Brother Zimo, go to bed early, I won't bother you anymore." Chi Xue glanced at Xin Zimo again, she wished she could keep looking at him.

"Wait." Xin Zimo stopped her.

Chi Xue froze for a moment, and stopped in her tracks, but after a moment of silence, she was greeted by Xin Zimo's two words: "Thank you."

Chi Xue smiled bitterly, covered her face and ran out.Tears overflowed from between her fingers, she wanted to cry, wanted to cry hysterically...
