Ji Ran stared at the woman in front of her with an indifferent expression. Even though she tried her best to hide it, she still caught the malice hidden behind her eyes.

Haha, everyone in the Zeng family is really interesting.

Ji Ran couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth in disdain. Without saying a word, he turned around and left.

The other three were all stunned.

"Hey! Why are you so uneducated?" Zeng Qianer immediately shouted at Ji Ran's back.

But he didn't get any response from the arrogant woman in front.

At this time, Yuan Yamei also showed a bit of embarrassment, and said to Zeng Yichen with some grievance:

"I'm sorry, Yichen. I don't know why, but Aunt Mei seems to have made Miss Ji unhappy."

Zeng Yichen had never expected that Ji Ran would be so disrespectful to Yuan Yamei, an elder. After hearing what Yuan Yamei said, he felt even more guilty. After all, this was the girl he brought back.

"It's none of your business, Aunt Mei. Baby Ji might not be in a good mood today."

Yuan Yamei smiled at him affectionately and said, "Is that so? Then why don't you go and comfort her."

Hearing this, Zeng Qian'er turned to look at Yuan Yamei in disbelief, but Yuan Yamei secretly grabbed her hand tightly.

After hearing what she said, Zeng Yichen looked up at her eyes filled with sincerity and kindness. He couldn't help but nodded at her guiltily, then turned around and chased after Ji Ran.

"Hey... Second Brother..." Zeng Qian'er gritted her teeth unwillingly as she watched Zeng Yichen's receding figure. She turned around and complained loudly to Yuan Yamei:

"Mom! How could you let my second brother chase after that bitch!"

"Silly child," Yuan Yamei smiled, took her hand and held it in her palm, stroking it lovingly: "Do you know that men are like the wind? The more you want to catch them, the more they will slip away. Especially this kind of wind that already has a direction."

"Then what should I do!"

Zeng Qianer gritted her teeth and felt so frustrated that she could hardly breathe.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yamei smiled. That smile seemed gentle, but the smile did not reach her eyes at all.

"Then... destroy his direction first."

"What do you mean, Mom?" Zeng Qianer asked curiously.

Yuan Yamei leaned close to her ear and whispered, and Zeng Qianer's eyes gradually brightened.

Zeng Yichen caught up with Ji Ran.

"Baby Ji!" He panted a little.

Ji Ran was too lazy to pay attention to him. He walked around and planned to go back to the back garden to observe carefully.

Zeng Yichen reached out to grab her hand, but Ji Ran, who was very sensitive to touch, quickly dodged it. She stopped impatiently and turned to look at Zeng Yichen:

"What do you want to say?"

Zeng Yichen swallowed, as if he was struggling over whether to say it out loud.

Seeing that he couldn't even fart, Ji Ran lost his patience and waited for him to dawdle, so he turned around and left again.

"Ji baby!" Zeng Yichen hurriedly called her again: "Go and apologize to Aunt Mei. Although I don't like her, she is an elder after all. You were really too..."

Ji Ran turned his head and looked at him coldly, without a trace of warmth in his eyes:

"Too uneducated?"

Zeng Yichen was shocked and quickly explained: "That's not what I meant! I just felt..."

"No matter what you think, it's none of my business." Ji Ran said this coldly and turned away.

"Baby Ji!" Zeng Yichen hurriedly followed him anxiously, but did not dare to say another word.

It’s over. Did he make Ji Baobei angry?

……

As the sky gradually darkened, the night lights in the courtyard of the Zeng family mansion lit up one after another, making the already quiet and elegant garden mansion even more psychedelic and brilliant, and making the surroundings look like a fairyland.

Especially the quiet artificial river, at this moment the reflected twinkling lights are as mysterious and dazzling as the Milky Way.

Guests came in an endless stream to congratulate, and Zeng Yichen went with his family to entertain the guests.

Ji Ran was wandering around alone. Even though she had a rough idea of ​​the entire layout, she could not do anything under the strict surveillance.

She really wanted to go to the river to take some samples and take them back for testing to find out the truth, but she couldn't think of a reasonable reason.

Then let's go explore the back garden...

Thinking of Ji Ran, he immediately planned to go to the back garden, but when he turned around, he was bumped by a strange girl in a white dress.

"I'm sorry." The girl in white spoke to her very proudly.

Ji Ran recognized at a glance that this girl was with Zeng Qianer's group when she first came. She was probably a rich lady from some wealthy family.

Some people in the upper class are like this, they appear to be hypocritically polite on the surface, but the malice in their eyes is not concealed at all.

Ji Ran didn't have the patience to deal with this hypocritical person, so she just walked around the girl with an indifferent expression.

The girl in white also turned away with disdain and walked in another direction, with a cunning smile on her face that showed a trace of success.

All this happened to be seen by Jiang Manxi who had just turned the corner. She looked in the direction where Ji Ran left in confusion, then looked at the back of the girl in white, and lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

Ji Ran returned to the back garden, walked to the mud puddle, bent down, and held out his hand to hold a rose that was in full bloom.

She pretended to admire the flowers, but her eyes glanced calmly at the black mud under the roots of the plants.

She slowly squatted down, pretending to pick up the fallen petals, but in fact she stretched out her fingers to hook some soil with her nails.

But when she was halfway down, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the shadow of a man standing not far behind her, reflected on the greenhouse glass in front of her.

Ji Ran turned around suddenly and saw that the person coming was Zeng Yan, the battalion commander of the Western Suburbs Military Camp. A strong sense of vigilance immediately ignited in her eyes.

The man opposite was obviously startled by her sudden turn. After just a second, he calmed down and greeted calmly:

"I was wondering who was here, it turns out to be Professor Ji."

Ji Ran smiled innocently: "So it's Captain Zeng, you're here too...ah! I almost forgot you're Zeng Yichen's brother."

Zeng Yan's eyes flickered calmly upon hearing this, and his hands behind his back kept stroking the needle in his hand:

"Haha, yeah, why don't you go to the main hall to join in the fun? What are you doing here alone?"

As he spoke, Zeng Yan naturally raised his foot and moved closer to her.

Ji Ran clenched his fists, thinking about how to get out of this situation, and replied very comfortably:

"Let's enjoy the flowers. It's rare to see a garden that is so brightly maintained without a single dead leaf."

Zeng Yan was still moving forward, his eyes were filled with more evil intent, and his tone gradually became quite meaningful:

"That's because we use very special fertilizer at home."

Seeing that the opponent was less than 5 meters away from her, Ji Ran calmly moved her right foot back and prepared for a fight.

But suddenly!

Without any warning, a huge and terrifying black shadow appeared on the glass behind her, swaying like a flame, with two strange and intense blood lights flashing in its eyes.

As the ghost shadow swayed, the flowers behind Ji Ran began to transform into human skulls, twisting their bodies madly and hideously.

The whole scene is like the king of ghosts and gods leading the souls of millions of soldiers, who are all surrounding the petite figure of the girl as if they are defending the territory to the death.

As powerful as thunder and lightning, it swallows up mountains and rivers.
