Creation’s Grace

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

The late appearance caught the group off guard.

Some middle-level and senior employees and old employees recognized her at once, put down their work and went to receive her. The newcomers were a little confused and didn't know who was coming.

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

Chi Yu smiled at Manager Xu: "I'll go to Sister Ran's office to wait for her."

As the second miss of the Chi family, let alone the former chairman, even the current Ran Jin also holds her in his palm. The entire UP building is still closely linked to the surname "Chi" for the time being. The second miss said where to go. , Manager Xu could not refuse.

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

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

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

With the folder he just picked up, Manager Xu lightly patted Xiao Yang on the forehead, pulled her to a corner where no one was around, and said softly to her, "That's Mr. Chi's sister who has been studying overseas."

"Ah? Is that her?"

Even the new employees of Chi Group have never met Chi Yu in person, but the chairman has a sister who is so distressed that everyone has heard of it.

As for my younger sister, I have always heard about her, but I have never seen the deity. Now something happened to Mr. Chi, and there are a lot of rumors. My younger sister came directly. I don’t know what kind of development will happen. Xiao Yang’s mind was already filled with blood. fishy wind.

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

In addition to the documents and computers at work, there is also a photo frame on Ran Jin's desk.

The photo frame is embedded with a photo of Zhang Xueshan. The peaks of the snow-capped mountains are stacked, and the corners of the mountains stretch out to form a deep embrace. In the embrace is a lake that is as blue as a gem.

Chi Yu held the photo frame and felt that the scenery was familiar to her, but she couldn't remember where it was, maybe she had seen it in a documentary.

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

Unsurprisingly, a password is required.

Late Yu quickly entered the birthday of my sister, wrong.

Entering Ran Jin's birthday again is also wrong.

Hovering her fingertips on the keyboard, after thinking for a while, she entered the date that Ran Jin came to Chi's house in turn, 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 of Ran Jin's computer.

Qi Tong is right, the phone call that 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 had a deep attachment to Ran Jin. I have seen it all these years, and I am not surprised.

So, what about Ran Ban?

Thinking of Ran Jin, Chi Yu thought of her face that never smiled for ten thousand years, and a pair of eyes that were as silent as empty mountains.

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

This sister's incident made Ran Ban's attitude even more confusing.

Perhaps personal computers can leave some emotional trail.

Chi Yu, with the mentality of giving it a try, chose to come to her office when Ran Ban was away, but unfortunately she couldn't unlock the computer.

Chi Yu leaned back heavily on the back of the chair, feeling a little impetuous.

Passwords have a certain symbolic meaning for most people, and most of them are days when they can be remembered by instinct without thinking about it at any time.

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

But she tried all the dates about her sister and couldn't unlock Ranjian'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 expression turned a bit ugly.

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 you should wait a little longer."

Chi Yu: "I have to leave beforehand."

"Oh, oh, then you..."

Before the word "slow walk" was uttered, Chi Yu had already pushed the door and left the office area.

When Chi Yu came downstairs, I felt a little dizzy, and I didn't know whether it was because the fever had not subsided, or if the hypoglycemia was committed 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.

After Chi Yu walked past the cafe, she stepped back and looked in through the glass window. She was sure that the person sitting in the cafe was Ran Ban.

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

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

Chi Yutong has met He Zhi twice in total, once in the UP building, once in Chi's house, and twice when she took the initiative to find Ran Jin, but Ran Jin ignored her and left her to hang for an hour, knowing that When she can't see her daughter, she just leaves.

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.

But He Zhi left a deep impression on her.

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

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

Sunglasses are standard, and she has taken them off whether she is not seen indoors or outdoors.

On a hot day, she would wrap herself in three layers and wear a wide-brimmed sun hat. The soft brim of the hat often hangs over his face, covering most of his face, and the wideness always reminds Chi Yu of the restaurant that likes to use huge plates for two bites of salad.

Chi Yu was very curious about He Zhi, and once asked her elder sister why her mother wanted this dress.

I remember my sister smiled and said, "There may be something shameful about it."

At that time, Chi Yu didn't hear the sarcasm in her sister's words. Now that I think about it, I really didn't hear anything out of the window.

Although it is winter, the heating in the shopping mall is so full that Chi Yu, who has always been a little sweaty, is a little dry, and He Zhi in the coffee shop is still wearing a down jacket, wrapping his whole body into a vampire .

It turned out that Ran Ban came to see her mother.

Combined with Ran Jin's shy attitude towards He Zhi before, Chi Yu was very curious about today's meeting.

She quietly walked into the cafe and sat silently in the booth behind Ran Jing.

The conversation between the two was already halfway through. Unaware of the previous situation, He Zhi suddenly held Ran Ban's hand and said in a low voice, "It's all so many years ago... At that time we were helpless, you Do you still hate us?"

Chi Yu thought to herself, Ran Jin really had a problem with her family, what should her parents have done to make her feel sorry for her back then.

Ran Jin took out his hand and said in a dispassionate voice of the same paragraph in the news broadcast: "Ms. He, I think you are mistaken."

Mrs. He?

Chi Yu couldn't help pondering this strange name.

As far as Chi Yu knew, Ran Jin never paid attention to her mother, and used cold violence to drive people away without speaking a word. Chi Yu was also the first time she saw her and He Zhi communicate face to face.

It seems that the relationship between Ran Jin and the Ran family is deeply ingrained, and even the mother doesn't shout, but the very unfamiliar "Ms. He" instead.

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

"Xiao Yu?"

Ran Jin's voice sounded from behind Chi Yu.

When Chi Yu looked back, Ran Jin's head was sticking out from the back of the sofa behind him, and he was looking at her curiously.

From the reflection of the glass window, I found the late Ran Jin and 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 and pretend to be surprised: "Hey? Sister Ran, I just 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 in the air with He Zhi's eyes looking at her through his sunglasses.

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

"Hello..." He Zhi's voice was a little hesitant, and he quickly said, "Then let's talk. Xiaojing, your birthday is coming soon, if you have time, remember to go home for a meal. Me and...your father miss you very much. you."

This affectionate parenting didn't get any response, Ran Jin seemed to have not heard it, and didn't even reject it on the spot, just regarded He Zhi as air.

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

He Zhi left too quickly, even a little escaping.

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

"Have your fever subsided? How can you run outside?"

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

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, "Can I touch your forehead?"

When she was late and fell ill, as an elder, it was normal for Ran Jin to touch the temperature of her forehead with her palm, and she 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 for other reasons, she began to seek Chi Yu's opinion before touching Chi Yu.

Chi Yu didn't want Ran Ban to touch her. These hands were stained with her sister's blood. Even though she looked white and slender now, she didn't know if it was a psychological effect. Chi Yu could always smell a **** smell that made her uncomfortable.

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

Ran Jin retracted his hand a little embarrassedly: "It's fine."

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

Unlike facing He Zhi's coldness, even if Ran Jin was rejected once in the face of Chi Yu, he would still take the initiative to find a topic:

"Even if it's just burned down now, it's not good to keep running around outside. It's too cold, I'll take you back."

Chi Yu said, "Isn't there a lot to do in the company? 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 always drove her sister's car when she came back.

However, Ran Jin, a busy person, took the initiative to ask to be her driver, still caring for her like an elder, pampering her, just creating a chance for her to be alone, Chi Yu planned to use this opportunity to confuse Ran Jin.

But I didn't have enough time on the way home.

Chi Yu, who had adjusted her mentality, held Ran Jin's arm and said coquettishly as before:

"Sister Ran, I really don't want to burn anymore. When I went out, Aunt Su cooked a large table of meals. At that time, I had no appetite, so I ate a little. Now I'm a little hungry. Will Sister Ran take me to dinner?"

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

"The Chinese restaurant upstairs is the one that my sister and you used to take me to eat. My stomach has been devastated all these years abroad, and I just want to eat authentic Kung Pao Chicken."

"Okay, let's go."

Chi Yu and Ran Ban went upstairs together, Chi Yu held Ran Ban all the way to show that there was no gap between the two, and tried to let Ran Ban relax his vigilance.

Chi Yu intends to use the meal time to set Ran Ban's words.

Ran Jin was clinging to Chi Yu, and she smelled the perfume on her body and the freshness of the shampoo. Her back was straight, like a red flag guard who was going to raise the national flag.

The only difference is that she almost swerved several times.
