cool autumn

The second treasure has been mysterious recently, leaving early and returning late. This has been the case for more than half a month. It is rare for Zhou Ran to see it at this moment. Seeing the little figure Yan Yan da da listless,

I was surprised for a while.

Zhou Ran rubbed his chin to ponder, circled around Erbao, lol, lol, he didn't like to eat his favorite fish, and he didn't like to eat the most greedy little red fruit. He couldn't help but click twice, this is , Lovelorn?

Some time ago, Zhou Ran was busy, and Zhou Huaning returned to Chunlin Town, so Erbao simply bounced around by himself, and would come back to look for food when it was meal time.Later, Zhou Ran accidentally watched Erbao circle around a white Persian purebred white cat. At that time, he thought that Erbao had a big heart, and decided to be a cute cat.It's just that this idea was dismissed in less than two days. Seeing Erbao's indifference to the white cat, it was clear that the Persian kitten had taken a fancy to his second treasure.

Zhou Ran thought about it, his second treasure kept the kitten for nothing, so could there be a higher standard?So, just a few days ago, he met Erbao's little lover - a ferocious wolfhound.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but want to touch his forehead, and sighed, you said he used to joke about Erbao and Huzi all the time, but in the end, this is not a tsundere cat, but a scumbag all the time?Every time I saw Er Bao squatting in front of the wolf dog holding the little red fruit and begging for compliments, Zhou Ran felt complicated like my family has a cat that has just grown up, Nima, what is going on?He really wanted to say something to Erbao seriously, cats and dogs have different paths, dear.

He leaned over to pick up Er Bao, touched the hair on the back of his neck, Zhou Ran smiled and said to it, "The weather is fine today, I'll take you out for a walk, ah, you'll feel better as you walk." It's gone." It's best to forget about the wolfhound when you come back, and live its life as a cat with peace of mind.

Then he reached out and stuffed the door key, mobile phone, and wallet into his pocket. When he was about to put on his shoes, he couldn't help but shift his gaze to the string of green jadeite anklets on his bare left foot. I don't have a good impression of this thing at all. Every time I see it, I can't help but think of those not-so-good objects like shackles. It's just that the chain buttons on the feet are set really cleverly, not to mention that this thing needs special configuration. Only the key can be opened, which made Zhou Ran even more disgusted.

This anklet was forced to be worn by Huo Wendong when he was about to leave just now. The thin anklet is made of extremely strong red smelt iron, and it is dotted with a few priceless emperors here and there. Green jade, against the white and slender ankles, looks extraordinarily delicate and luxurious.Zhou Ran noticed that one of the green jadeites was particularly distinctive. Its carvings were particularly complicated, like ghost-faced stupas stacked one on top of the other, and there was even an evil spirit between the eyes, because he was too focused on it. He also didn't see the complex and restrained emotions when Huo Wendong put on this anklet for him. His deep silver-gray eyes shone with a piercing light. He put the key in his trouser pocket casually. Ran didn't know, Huo Wendong turned around and threw the set of keys into the sewer.Zhou Ran just looked at him with an awkward face, and was impatiently told by him to wear the anklet properly.

In the end, Huo Wendong left. He came in such a hurry that even Assistant Xiao Wang didn't know that he had spent the night at Zhou Ran's place.

Zhou Ran stroked the anklet lightly, pursing his lips and not thinking about the subtle expression on Huo Wendong's departure. For some reason, he suddenly felt a little flustered, but he couldn't figure out why, so he could only hold back his thoughts and think about the situation in front of him. matter.

As soon as Huo Wendong left Zhou Ran's small room, he took a taxi directly to the Donghuang Clubhouse. He came to Xunyang City this time because of his mission.The Patriarch of the Huo family is now seriously injured. Although the power of the family is still in his hands, he cannot personally intervene in many things because of physical considerations, and there are also ambitious and powerful people in the family. In order to take the overall situation into consideration, the Huo family The head of the family can only choose to entrust some important things to people he trusts and rest assured, and Huo Wendong is the best candidate for this.

Huo Wendong's own power cannot be ignored. If he lives up to his trust this time, he will undoubtedly be the next successor of the Huo family.Therefore, those ambitious people wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of Huo Wendong when the Patriarch of the Huo family was too busy to take care of himself and was unable to help Huo Wendong. Even if they couldn't kill him, it would be a great pleasure to severely damage his power.Worst of all, it would be good to destroy Huo Wendong's mission this time.

In the Huo family, Huo Wendong has a brother, a sister, and more than a dozen illegitimate children behind him. To put it bluntly, he is now like a big piece of fat, thrown into an oil pan for frying. Everyone who smells the fragrance wants to tear off a piece and share the food together.

Because he was afraid that others would track his whereabouts, he didn't even bring Assistant Xiao Wang with him, and he was thinking about Zhou Ran's number suddenly disconnected some time ago, and he was a little worried that something happened to him, so that Huo Wendong Only after walking around a huge circle by himself did he dare to sneak up to Zhou Ran's residence and knock on the door to enter.

He had long forgotten what it was like to worry about someone so full of heart and soul, but when he saw Zhou Ran's clean and clear eyes, the exhaustion in his whole body flew away as if he had grown wings, and all his worries and worries were there. In an instant, everything turned into happiness.

It's nice that the man is fine.

Assistant Xiao Wang jumped up in shock when he received a call from his boss. When his boss left, he only told him to wait for the call, and didn't say where he was going. When he called him, he quietly set off alone.

What's wrong with him these days has been hanging on his heart, and he can't even sleep well. He grew up in Huo's family since he was a child, and he is very clear about the ghosts of those people in Huo's family. How can he not worry about the safety of his own boss? ?It's just that the more worried he is, the more he resents Huo Wendong's Patriarch. He has been with Huo Wendong since he was a child, and his heart is naturally towards his own boss, especially every time the Patriarch treats Huo Wendong so severely and harshly, he silently takes care of his boss in his heart. It's uncomfortable, there are so many children in the Huo family, even an illegitimate child doesn't have to be reprimanded so harshly and mercilessly, every time the family trains, Huo Wendong's practice table is undoubtedly that so many illegitimate children, even the Huo family's youngest, can't compare several times the amount above.Hard and tiring work will always be assigned to Huo Wendong, even if he completes it perfectly, the head of the family will not give him a good face.

Sometimes, Assistant Xiao Wang even suspects that his boss is not the real son of the head of the house.Otherwise, how could he be so cruel to him.

When Assistant Xiao Wang received the news, Lin Lang was already fully prepared for departure.Seeing his boyfriend looking so worried, he couldn't help laughing and jokingly said, "Why, haven't you been worried about the BOSS? This person is here, so you're still worried about him. You haven't packed up yet and are ready to pick him up."

The next itinerary was being carried out closely there, but Zhou Ran was leisurely sitting on the bus with Er Bao in his arms, and ran to the second key high school in the city center.

He has already checked his scores online, and the results are very satisfactory, almost 30 points higher than the cut-off line. Chen Haiqing's score is also good, more than 3 points higher than the cut-off line, and Li Mingliang is slightly higher than ten points. Overall, , attending this high school is more than enough.Not long after the results were announced, other high schools offered him an olive branch, threatening to waive all tuition and miscellaneous fees, award a scholarship of [-] yuan, and various targeted preferential measures.

However, Zhou Ran pouted with a smile. No matter which school, it is not as good as No. [-] High School, or it is a little far away from Xunyang City. In order to avoid what happens to the Lin family and he cannot be informed in time, he can only choose according to this routine. School, who told him that he has no influence, no money, and no backing.

After getting off the bus, Zhou Ran walked slowly along the street. He came all the way here. Of course, he didn’t come to see the school like a bumpkin, but he was thinking about the place where he would stay in his high school life in the future. It is convenient to walk, and he plans to buy a house.

On the way, Li Mingliang and Chen Haiqing called, because they suddenly heard Sister He say that Zhou Ran would not go to the dessert shop to 'work' again. Of course, this unexpected behavior shocked the two of them. Some time ago, Zhou Ran was having stomach troubles all the time, so she thought about it a little bit. How could she care about Sister He telling them that a man answered the phone?

Zhou Ran answered the phone and briefly explained a few words, only saying that he had something to do and didn't have time to go there to do things. If possible, he hoped that they could help to send an apology to Sister He or something.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Ran walked slowly along the straight street. This is a residential area only [-] meters away from the high school, and it belongs to an old residential area that has not yet been developed.

There are clusters of trees here, high and low houses, and a few hawkers scattered on the street, some of them are selling fruits under the big trees, and some are selling snacks, daily necessities, and some children's playgrounds. Although the so-called sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.Although it looks quite deserted here, everything that should be there is complete.

Zhou Randa has been thinking about buying a house since a few days ago. The location should be closer to the school. If you want to open a shop, you'd better buy that kind of double-storey floor, because Zhou Huaning's temperament is too soft, He is not a person who can argue with others, and he is afraid that he will be squeezed out even if he opens a shop, so those houses in the downtown area are excluded.

Zhou Ran originally thought about starting a business for Zhou Huaning and expanding the pastry shop in the future, but after observing Sister He for so long, he completely gave up on this idea.First of all, she is not as courageous as Sister He, and she considers things too one-sidedly and simply, not to mention her temper is not smooth enough, and she is also lacking in courage. Even if Zhou Ran helps to open the shop in the future, if Zhou Huaning is not good at managing it, it will be in vain It's all over his mind.Secondly, it is very rare to be as courageous as Sister He, who dares to think and do, and can control her employees who can stand alone.If Zhou Huaning met a meticulous and ambitious employee, he would be hiccupping.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Zhou Ran decided to set his sights on this old residential area.The terrain conditions here are very good, the roads are wide, and people can come and go smoothly, and it is close to the urban area. If you can buy a house here, you will definitely not lose money in the future.

As the road deepened, a loud noise came from a distance, and I saw a group of strong men with their sleeves rolled up, ready to fight, standing not far away. However, people moved things out of the house in front of them one after another. It was full of miscellaneous things, such as TV dramas, refrigerators, glass cabinets and so on.

There was an old man next to him who couldn't see it, stepped forward to criticize a few words, but he didn't seem to have heard it, so he wanted to step forward to stop him, but before he could get closer, he was pushed violently by a few young men, and immediately saw the old man. Buttock fell to the ground, beat his chest in anger, and cried dryly, but the group of people still ignored them and acted accordingly.

Er Bao in his arms scratched his front paws curiously, raised his head, and stared at him. Zhou Ran raised his hand to touch his head, stepped forward a few steps, but chose an unobtrusive position to observe closely.

The group of people pointed and said something, probably saying that whoever dares to stop you will not be polite or something like that. The crowd on the side whispered and whispered. During their discussion, Zhou Ran I also got some information from it, which is that the owner of this house borrowed their usury to do business, but he lost his money and had nothing left. It turned into several 10 yuan, and the money was not meant to be repaid, so they fled, leaving only a few tattered things to make up for it.

But if you say he ran away, he ran away, but he only fled with his youngest son, but that well-behaved girl stayed behind and didn't take her away. Everyone said that the girl was pitiful, she was originally a crippled mute , who is only 11 years old, not to mention withdrawn, withdrawn and unable to speak, so she was left behind. If even the things in the house were moved away, how would she live in the future.

Zhou Ran was standing in a remote place, and the terrain was high. From a distance, he could see the little girl squatting alone in front of her door. Her disheveled face was dirty and her face was covered by messy hair. Zhou Ran All she could see was her tightly clenched fingers, the phalanges turned white, and her tightly pressed lips were pale without a trace of blood.

If you take a closer look, you can find that she is still holding a brown teddy bear in her arms. The bear's hair has long faded, and it is extremely ugly with mottled mottled shades, and there is a large piece of baldness at the tail. The two eyeballs were lost somewhere, and even the sutures on the little bear's body were torn. To put it bluntly, this is a thing that the scavengers don't even bother to pick up after being thrown into the trash.

However, the little girl held it in her arms very solemnly, for fear of being snatched away by those ferocious men.

The door was kicked with a bang, and the little girl huddled up tightly in fright. Only then did Zhou Ran see her ordinary face clearly, and the pair of exceptionally clear eyes trembled in panic. After a moment, Liuyuan'er's eyeballs were filled with tears of despair, and she looked around timidly, as if she was looking for a way out.

The old man who was pushed down by the strong man just now is actually the neighbor next door to this house. The two neighbors have been together for so many years. They watched the little girl grow up since she was a child. Although the little girl can't speak and has a bad temper , but he is really well-behaved and never does anything worrying. The old man loves children very much, so how can he bear to see the little girl he saw when he was a child being driven to a desperate situation and have nowhere to turn? to the point of saving.

It’s just that he’s old too, and he’s no longer young. As he grows older, his body’s bones become loose and out of shape. After being pushed like this, his waist, arms, and legs are all black and blue. Hey, When you are old, you should go home and ask your wife to massage with medicated oil to loosen your bones and tendons.

The group of strong men wiped out all the things in the house, and drove away with big cars and small cars. Although it is not enough to completely offset it, the future will be long. Everyone is hanging out in this piece of land. , You can't do too much in everything, besides, if you keep such a little girl, if you grow up, you can make money and pay back some debts, right? It's reasonable and reasonable.

Seeing those people walking away, and the crowd who had been onlookers gradually dispersed, Zhou Ran slowly walked forward, the helpless and desperate eyes of the little girl were vaguely vivid in his memory, he suddenly remembered himself, no matter what Whether in his previous life or in this life, he is very lucky, because there is always someone who is willing to stand up, stand in front of him with a thin chest to protect him from the wind and rain, and treat each other with sincerity without reservation. He can be sure that in this world, only Grandpa, there is no purer affection for him than Zhou Huaning, this is the preciousness of maternal love.

How confused I was back then, I almost walked into a dead end in a panic, if no one helped me in time, I am afraid that I would not be who I am now.

Zhou Ran touched his chest, where there was an impulse throbbing violently. He wanted to repay the favor he had received, to thank God for giving him a chance to do it all over again, and to try his best to help this lost child to the light.

The sun was still mild that day, but the moment the girl raised her eyes, she confirmed that she saw an angel.Perhaps, the world has not abandoned her.

"Stand up, I want to buy your house." In a trance, the girl heard the voice of heaven, and the tears she had endured for a long time fell silently as if they were out of control, and the tears wet her dirty cheeks , leaving behind mottled traces.
