After resigning, I was pestered by my ex-boss crying bitterly

Chapter 379 Beware of That Woman

Lan Xingruo put away his mobile phone and gave Si Ye a sideways glance.

"You'd better find a girlfriend first."

"..."

Si Ye was so bullied that he was speechless, yes, he doesn't even have a girlfriend, so where is he going to give birth to a son.

The plane flew for more than ten hours, but fortunately, it was not boring to quarrel with Si Ye occasionally.

Finally got off the plane, breathing the air outside, Lan Xingruo felt refreshed.

It was late at night when they arrived at L City, the capital of Country Y, and it was already seven o'clock in the morning in Hua Country.

Lan Xingruo dragged his tired body, followed the people, and then moved into the old castle of the Lancaster family. Because it was already late at night, he didn't see anyone, only the servants were there.

Being led into the room in a daze, Lan Xingruo stretched his eyelids and sent a message to Sheng Jingyi, then fell asleep.

It was a solid sleep.

She was awakened by a knock on the door.

"An'an, get up." Ruan Qingning knocked on the door and walked in.

Lan Xingruo opened his eyes in a daze, "Mom, what time is it?"

"The sun is drying your ass, get up, and go to see your grandparents in a while."

"Huh?" Lan Xingruo woke up suddenly.

Ruan Qingning went to choose clothes for Lan Xingruo, "You don't need to dress up too grandly, the homely look is the best."

Lan Xingruo got up quickly, changed his clothes, and put on light makeup.

After breakfast, the family is going to meet Duke Aaron, who is Lan Xingruo's grandfather, and of course, Lan Xingruo's grandmother, Lan Xiang.

If Lan Xing was a little nervous, his nervous palms were covered with sweat.

The 81-year-old man, wearing a white T-shirt and sweatpants, is dressed in a simple and energetic way. Although his face is wrinkled, his figure is still vigorous.

This is her grandfather, Duke Aaron.

And Lan Xingruo's grandmother, Lan Xiang, is an elegant oriental beauty, who will soon be 66 years old. Even at this age, she still has a charming charm. It is even conceivable how magnificent she was when she was young.

"This is my precious granddaughter, right?" Lan Xiang walked towards Lan Xingruo, holding her face with both hands, his eyes were a little moist.

She knows how difficult it is for this family to walk along the way.

She had wanted Lan Zheng to come back to her countless times. She wanted to comfort him and make him forget the pain, but Lan Zheng was unwilling.

Now it's finally all over.

"Grandma." Lan Xingruo used Chinese.

Lan Xiang smiled, and kissed Lan Xingruo's forehead, "Be good."

Duke Aaron was also smiling all the time, beckoning to Lan Xingruo, and Lan Xingruo stepped forward.

He touched her head, "It's very similar to your grandma when she was young."

The family is happy.

Duke Aaron has no airs, and Lan Xiang is very kind.

Lan Xingruo's discomfort soon subsided.

Duke Aaron gave Lan Xingruo a set of priceless jewelry, which was a set of aquamarine necklace and earrings. The huge aquamarine was clear and transparent, exuding brilliance.

This set of jewelry also has an exclusive name, Blue Star

Lan Xingruo also knew the goods, and was at a loss for a while.

"Accept it, this is your grandpa's wish." Lan Xiang looked at his granddaughter tenderly and said.

Lan Xingruo reached out and took it.

"Xingruo, tomorrow our whole family will go to a banquet held by the royal family. Your grandfather hopes that you can dance with Prince Andy."

"Ah?" Why can't you do without dancing?

Why do people from country Y like dance parties so much?

"An'an, it's your honor to dance with the prince."

If Lan Xing couldn't refuse, he had no choice but to agree.

Duke Aaron is getting old, and the doctor has formulated a very strict diet and exercise plan for him. Lan Xiang has been exercising with him all the time.

So they didn't talk for a while.

They walked out together, Lan Xingruo breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm going to be so nervous." Lan Xingruo looked at his palms, they were all sweaty.

"Xingruo, this castle is huge, do you want to show you around?"

Lan Xingruo didn't have much interest, she came here as if it was a routine, she just wanted to end early and go home early.

"No need?"

Walking towards me were two blonde women, one with long hair and one with short hair.

Lan Zheng introduced: "The girl with long hair is the youngest daughter of your uncle's family, named Ai Li, and the girl with short hair is the daughter of your aunt's family, named Tina. I have been best friends with your aunt since I was young."

When Duke Aaron was young, he had a high status and attracted a lot of attention. Many girls admired him, and he was also very flamboyant.

He had three wives in total. The first wife gave birth to his eldest son, the second wife gave birth to his daughter, and the third wife, Lan Xiang, gave birth to his youngest son, Lan Zheng.

Perhaps because of the half-parent relationship and the relatively large age difference, the relationship between the children is not very good.

The relationship between Lan Zheng and his sister is reasonable.

In the family, he is the only person of oriental descent, and it is difficult to integrate into the family. Only his second sister is still close to him.

Two young and beautiful girls walked in front of Lan Xingruo, and Tina, a girl with short hair, walked in front of Lan Xingruo very familiarly.

"This is my beautiful cousin, right? She really is just like grandma, a standard oriental beauty."

Ellie couldn't help but roll her eyes, not hiding her emotions at all.

Lan Xingruo also communicated with them in standard English, "Thank you, you are beautiful too."

"My cousin speaks English well and standard." Tina was a little surprised.

Of course, it was taught by Sheng Jingyi!

"Xingruo, go play with your two sisters and let them take you to familiarize yourself with the environment here."

When we met for the first time, Lan Xingruo was obviously not used to it, but fortunately, this Tina was acquainted and very kind.

"Mom, please help me put this back in the room."

Lan Xingruo handed Ruan Qingning the jewelry box that her grandfather had given her.

Both Tina and Allie were taken aback, they both knew what was in the jewelry box.

"Let's go." Tina took Lan Xingruo's hand.

Ellie reluctantly followed behind.

Tina enthusiastically introduced the environment here to Lan Xingruo. To Lan Xingruo's surprise, the inside was simply too big, and she would get lost if she was not careful.

Ellie was less interested.

After all, there are some topics for young people, so Lan Xingruo asked Tina for advice.

"Cousin, grandpa wants me to dance with the prince tomorrow, is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

"Grandpa wants you to dance with the prince? That's great, Ann. In fact, you don't need to pay attention to anything, as long as you dress up beautifully."

"So what kind of gift do I need to wear?"

"I think wearing a dress with oriental characteristics will definitely win the prince's heart!"

Lan Xingruo smiled awkwardly, she is already married, okay?

"Grandma wore an oriental dress back then, which amazed the audience!" Tina talked endlessly.

It was almost noon, and if Lan Xing was tired after walking around a lot, he separated from them.

Ellie went back to her room angrily, "Grandpa actually gave her the blue star!"

Tina didn't seem to care, "Grandpa has given you a lot of jewelry these years, it's nothing."

"But it's a blue star, it's different! All my jewels combined are not as expensive as that set!" Ellie took off her shoes angrily, and paced back and forth in the room, "Also, I have already agreed, The one who asked me to dance with Prince Andy, why was she replaced! Grandpa is eccentric!"

"But you have already danced with Prince Andy." Tina shrugged.

Ellie sat on the bed angrily, "Are you so indifferent?"

"She just came back. Grandpa should be partial to her, so relax."

Ellie was still pissed off.

If Lan Xing returned to his room, he would go to the ball tomorrow and dance with the prince. It really has one head and two big heads.

By the way, do you want to report to Sheng Jingyi?

It's better to say goodbye, it's just a dance, it's nothing.

Anyway, he'll be here in a few days.

There was a knock on the door, Lan Xingruo opened the door and saw Tina, and smiled at her.

"What's up?"

Tina smiled and leaned closer to Lan Xingruo's ear, "Be careful Ellie."

Lan Xingruo was taken aback.

"Before you came back, she was the only granddaughter of my grandfather, and she was very much loved, but when you came back, it was different."

No wonder she looked at her eyes, full of hostility.

"Your set of blue stars also made her very jealous, and tomorrow's ball, she was originally going to dance with the prince, so be careful."

Tina returned to her original position, "Welcome home, cousin, if you need anything, you can call me. My room is not far from you, so I'll leave first."

After speaking, Tina smiled at Lan Xingruo and left.

If Lan Xing closes the door, it seems that the inside of this family is really very dark.

After a while, the servant brought Lan Xingruo a glass of juice.

Lan Xingruo was thirsty and was about to drink when he remembered Tina's words.

So he called Si Ye over, "Can you see if there is anything wrong with this juice?"

Si Ye picked up the juice and smelled it, then took out a needle and tried it, and finally tasted a little bit.

"Not poisonous."

Lan Xingruo breathed a sigh of relief, "I was scared to death."

"But there will be problems if you drink it."

"Can you finish the sentence in one breath?"

"This stuff will cause a rash if you drink it."

If Lan Xing suddenly realizes, combined with Tina's words, it should make her face full of rashes, so that she won't be able to dance with the prince tomorrow.

This trick came so fast!

"Are there any other effects besides the rash?"

Si Ye shook his head, "No."

If Lan Xing picked it up, he was ready to drink it.

"Aren't you afraid of rashes?"

"It's better to have a rash, and you won't have to dance with the prince tomorrow."

In this way, there is no need to hide it from Sheng Jingyi. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds.

"Drink it, maybe you can lure out the black hand behind it."

"Huh?" Lan Xingruo sensed something was wrong, "What did Brother Yi tell you?"

Si Ye realized that he had said the wrong thing, "Oh, he asked me to investigate by the way, who was behind the abduction of your siblings back then."

"oh, I see."

Lan Xingruo didn't think too much about it.
