Chapter 109 Death to face
Chapter 109 Death to face
Qiu Lian raised her head and squeezed out an ugly smile, opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
The bitterness in her heart began to spread continuously, making her feel like she was about to be swallowed.
"Actually, Situ Xun is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and he wants to save face. He may have forgiven you a long time ago, but he couldn't let go of this face, so he did that."
Lan Xiaoyi thought that she knew a little about Situ Xun.
The man looked cold and unapproachable on the surface, but in fact he was like a child, childish, and he wanted to save face and suffer.
Among the people she knew, the old man was probably the only one who could properly subdue Situ Xun.
Would it be useful to ask grandpa to persuade him?
This thought suddenly appeared in Lan Xiaoyi's mind, and it quickly grew.
"Xiaoyi, I want to check things to see if there is anything missing."
Qiu Lianqiang pretended to be indifferent, greeted Lan Xiaoyi, then turned and left.
She asked herself that as a mother, Lan Xiaoyi didn't know Situ Xun yet.
For some reason, the feeling of guilt in my heart began to become stronger little by little.
Lan Xiaoyi didn't chase after her in a hurry, and she also knew that some emotions needed to be digested slowly by herself, so that she would get better.
Lan Xiaoyi wanted to help the mother and son ease their relationship. After calling the old man and confirming that they would be back soon, she quickly went to the kitchen to make desserts by herself.
After the dim sum was baked, the old man came back not long after.
But Situ Ye was nowhere to be seen.
It wasn't easy for her to ask any more questions, she walked up to the old man with a smile, and said, "Grandpa, you are back."
The old man's complexion was not good-looking, and after looking Lan Xiaoyi up and down with his eyes, he frowned and said, "My dear granddaughter-in-law, tell grandpa what the person who bullied you in the hospital today looks like, grandpa will find you right now." People beat them."
His words were very imposing, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes, as if he wanted to take revenge.
Lan Xiaojian was used to the old man's kind appearance, when he suddenly saw him get angry, he felt a chill down his spine, shrank his head and took a step back, instinctively wanting to distance himself from him.
He explained: "Grandpa, don't be angry. I didn't have any accidents. The police have already dealt with this matter."
Looking at the old man's appearance, she was really afraid that the other party would hit him in a fit of anger.
But what Lan Xiaoyi couldn't understand was, how could he know?
"Grandpa, don't worry, they are the ones making trouble for no reason, and there is nothing wrong with it." Lan Xiaoyi smiled and helped the old man to sit down, and then put the pre-made snacks in front of him, "Try it, I just made it."
"Lotus seed cake?" The old man picked up a piece and asked uncertainly.
Lan Xiaoyi nodded again and again, "Last time I remembered that you said that you like lotus seed cake, so you secretly learned how to make it. Try it and see how it tastes."
Hearing what she said, the old man's serious face turned into a smile in an instant.
"It's just that you are sensible."
He smiled happily, and stuffed the pastry into his mouth after speaking.
Then she nodded, gave Lan Xiaoyi a thumbs up, and praised, "It's delicious."
To say that the old man in this family likes this daughter-in-law the most, and the daughter-in-law who pleases him the most is also the daughter-in-law.
"Eat more, I'll get you a glass of water." Lan Xiaoyi was too attentive.
He stood up and took the poured water from the servant's hand, and put it in front of the old man.
"Is there something you need my help with?" The old man saw something wrong with Lan Xiaoyi and asked softly.
"No, but the last time Situ Xun was punished for copying the Three Character Classic five hundred times, did he hand it in?"
"Of course, does he dare to refuse!"
The old man replied arrogantly.
For so many years, he didn't know how many times he had used the same punishment method. Except for the first two times when he failed to hand in and was severely beaten, he never failed to complete it on time.
Lan Xiaoyi opened her mouth wide in surprise.
It's not because Situ Xun finished it, but because the old man didn't realize that he asked for help.
"Grandpa is still amazing, so he is afraid of you in our family." Lan Xiaoyi sighed sincerely, and then asked curiously: "Do you know why Situ Xun rejects his parents so much?"
She finally got to the point.
The old man smiled meaningfully, and reached out to pat Lan Xiaoyi's shoulder.
"Going around and around, I finally got to what I should say."
He had already seen through Lan Xiaoyi's little thought, but he never revealed it.
But when this matter was mentioned, the smile on the old man's face also subsided a lot. He shook his head and sighed softly, with an inexplicable emotion in his eyes.
"Speaking of which, I don't blame the child Situ Xun. If the two of them had fulfilled their responsibilities as parents one day and cared a little bit for their children, they wouldn't have caused the current situation."
The old man was obviously helpless.
He is very strict with Situ Xun everywhere, but only in the matter of Situ Xun's attitude towards his parents, it is not good to interfere too much.
"Is there any way to remedy it? I don't think Mom is the kind who is ruthless to children."
"I don't know." The old man shrugged, and he also looked helpless when facing this matter.
If there is really a remedy, the relationship between them will not be so bad.
"Does Situ Xun really not think about his mother at all?"
Lan Xiaoyi didn't believe it.
Even she, when facing Chen Qi, would think of all kinds of childhood.
It's a pity that time has passed and the situation has changed. Everything has long changed, and it is impossible to repeat the past.
At that time, Chen Qi might really have affection for her, but now there is probably nothing that can bind their father and daughter apart from interests.
The old man wrinkled and didn't fall into deep thought. It took a long time before he said in an extremely uncertain tone: "Maybe there is really..."
"What is it!" Lan Xiaoyi only felt that she suddenly felt hope.
Even if there is only a [-]% chance, it is okay to try.
"When Situ Xun was a child, he often clamored to eat the pork rib rice made by his mother, but for various reasons, Qiu Lian never had the opportunity to make it for him. The last time he said that he wanted to eat it seemed to be 15 years ago. There was trouble at school, just when his parents came back, they found out and beat him up angrily. They left the next day because they had something to do. Since then, Situ Xun never said that he wanted to eat, let alone Think about your parents."
Although more than ten years have passed since this incident, his impression is still quite deep.
That time when Qiu Lian and Situ Ye taught the child a lesson, they must have hurt the child's heart.
"Rib rice..." Lan Xiaoyi began to search for the recipe of rib rice in her mind.
Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said, "I know what to do!"
After she finished speaking, she saw Qiu Lian walking up to her at some point, and she was forcing a wry smile at this moment.
After a while, he said softly, "Let me do it."
"it is good."
Maybe after Situ Xun tastes it, he will think of all kinds of things in his childhood, and once again awaken the affection between his parents in his heart.
Qiu Lian nodded and went straight to the kitchen.
The old man stared at her back for a long time, but in the end he just sighed helplessly.
"This child is too impulsive, but the child has not understood it for so many years, and it is indeed very hard."
The old man knows what they are doing best, and he also shows a father's full understanding of his children.
"Can't you tell Situ Xun clearly? Or is there something unspeakable?"
Lan Xiaoyi asked uncertainly, but of course she didn't expect the old man to give an answer.
"Where is there anything to say clearly? At that time, even they themselves didn't know whether they could see the sun the next day. It was their lives that survived until now."
He shook his head and sighed, with an indescribable bitterness in his tone, and slowly stood up from the sofa after speaking.
For some reason, for a moment, Lan Xiaoyi felt that grandpa was so great.
Although she still doesn't know what Qiu Lian and Situ Ye are doing, she can be sure that it must be very dangerous, otherwise the old man wouldn't have reacted like this.
Maybe it's because of the special nature of the work that it's inconvenient to disclose, Lan Xiaoyi asked the old man and didn't say what they do now, and Qiu Lian has always been reluctant to say.
She sighed, and ordered the servant to deliver the cakes to the old man's room, and then went to the kitchen to help Qiu Lian.
After this incident, Qiu Lian's attitude towards Lan Xiaoyi obviously changed slightly.
Rib rice is actually very simple to make, and the whole process only takes half an hour.
But at that time, she couldn't even spare half an hour.
Thinking of this, she felt extra bitter in her heart.
"Xiaoyi." Qiu Lian yelled softly, her eyes flickered twice and then asked in a discussing tone: "When you help me deliver the food later, can you say that you did it?"
She knew very well that if Situ Xun knew that she made it, he would definitely not eat it.
"Okay." Lan Xiaoyi didn't refuse anything.
On the contrary, she was also curious if Situ Xun could taste it.
Putting the cooked pork ribs rice into an insulated box, Lan Xiaoyi got in the car and set off for the company.
For some reason, seeing Situ Xun this time, she felt very uneasy, her little heart was beating thumpingly.
After all, she is also a person who shoulders an important mission now, so it is understandable to be a little nervous.
"Ma'am, the company is here, let me inform you first."
The driver spoke respectfully and pulled Lan Xiaoyi back from her thoughts.
"No need, I'll go in by myself."
She is a majestic Mrs. Situ, can she still be stopped from entering the company?
Lan Xiaoyi got out of the car with the pork chop rice in her hand, and went straight to the front desk of the company.
"Is Situ Xun there?" She asked directly.
Sitting at the front desk was a beautiful young lady. Seeing Lan Xiaoyi's reckless appearance, she immediately became dissatisfied and looked at her warily.
"Miss, if you want to see our president, you need to make an appointment in advance. Have you made an appointment?" She asked politely.
Lan Xiaoyi didn't expect that the receptionist didn't recognize her, "You tell Situ Xun that Dr. Lan has come to see him."
"I'm sorry, if you don't have an appointment, you can't see our president." She insisted on stopping Lan Xiaoyi and not letting her in.
Seeing this, Lan Xiaoyi didn't want to waste time here, so she simply walked towards the elevator with the insulation box in her arms.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the front desk quickly shouted: "Security!"
