Chapter 2078 Cold Rainy Night (I)

The two of them were walking in tandem, with her walking in front and him guarding the back.

The alley was very long, but it seemed to suddenly become shorter now. The two of them didn't have time to say a few words, and they arrived at the downstairs of the apartment in a blink of an eye.

Leng Xinran suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at Lan Xiu behind him.

Lan Xiu also suddenly stopped and raised his gaze to look at her.

Bathed in the dim street lights, she looked very slender, and her flying clothes were blooming and swaying in the night wind. For a moment, she looked a little unreal.

Lan Xiu looked at it, feeling inexplicably stagnant in his heart, but then he recovered.

"I'm here, thank you."

Leng Xinran said calmly.

Lan Xiu nodded, with a hint of gentleness on his gentle face, "Go back and take a good bath and rest early."

"Well, you too. There have been a lot of things these past two days and you are a little tired. Please drive carefully on the road."

Leng Xinran answered politely, then turned around and walked forward directly.

However, when she took two steps, she suddenly felt something was wrong. She subconsciously turned her head and looked over, only to find that Lan Xiu was still standing there watching her go upstairs.

He is a gentleman, at least Leng Xinran thinks so, and he is also a person who pays great attention to details.

How could Leng Xinran not know that in fact, Lan Xiu had no feelings for her? He probably liked the woman named Dongfang Liuyun whom he had dinner with tonight. Seeing the way he looked at Dongfang Liuyun, he You can see it too.

However, after getting along with her for these few months, he also respected her very much and always accommodated her. Every time he sent her back, he would see her go upstairs and turn on the light before turning around and leaving. Every time he goes out to eat, he will order the food she likes. Her taste is very unique and she basically doesn’t eat meat dishes. She doesn’t like to talk, so he won’t disturb her too much. Most of the time, she is just so silent. Accompanying.

"Do you want to go up and sit down? It's quite early."

After thinking for a while, Leng Xinran finally asked.

Lan Xiu paused and remained silent for a long time before nodding, "That's fine."

He responded and followed him.

Leng Xinran's apartment is on the ninth floor and can be reached directly by taking the elevator.

"come in."

Leng Xinran picked up the key, turned on the light in the room, and called Lan Xiu in.

After getting along for several months, this was the first time that Lan Xiu came here.

The entire apartment is not very big. It looks like it has a hundred square meters. The decoration style is a bit graceful in the Chinese style. The mahogany furniture seems to be a bit old, and the light style is like ink and wash, but it has a unique charm.

The temperament is quite similar to hers, and it is not difficult for Lan Xiu to imagine what kind of cold-tempered person she is if she likes this style.

"Sit down, tea or coffee?"

Leng Xinran closed the door, put the key on the entrance cabinet next to her, and asked.

"Just a glass of water."

Lan Xiu sat down on the sofa without any courtesy, while looking at the whole house. After a while, his eyes were quickly attracted by a photo next to the coffee table and lamp.

In the photo frame was a photo of two women. The one wearing a long black dress and trousers was Leng Xinran, while the other looked younger, in his teens, wearing a light blue dress and a smile on his face. Very clear, and the outline of his eyebrows and eyes somewhat resemble Leng Xinran.

"She is Xinling, my sister. This photo was taken on the eve of her sixteenth birthday. At that time, she had just learned that she had blood cancer and was afraid that she would disappear, so she asked me to take more photos with me."

Leng Xinran's calm tone came, and before Lan Xiu could react, she had already put a cup of hot water on the table in front of him.

Lan Xiu was startled for a moment. He had already learned from Ali's mouth that she had a younger sister who had passed away.

"She looks somewhat similar to you."

Lan Xiu raised his gaze and looked at her.

But she couldn't help but there was a slight dimness in her eyes, and she nodded, "She is very considerate. When she was tortured by the pain in the later period, she never cried out about pain. I know that she was afraid that I would worry, but the more she became like this, , I feel more and more sad. She is still so young, God should not deprive her of her right to life so cruelly."

"The deceased is gone, so don't be too sad. She had no pain in that world and would live a good life."

Hearing this, Leng Xinran had an indifferent smile on his face. He stretched out his hand to take the photo frame. He lowered his eyes and looked at the person in the photo frame for a long time. "There is no such thing as this world. It is just for people to rest in peace." Even now, we as gravekeepers are just trying our best to do what we can for the things that exist in our hearts.”

"But you are still very young and you still have a lot to do, right?"

"Not necessarily, not necessarily. Some things always need to be done by someone, just like someone has to die every day."

Leng Xinran waved his hand and directly cut off Lan Xiu.

Lan Xiu paused, picked up the water in front of him, and took a calm sip.

"What are your plans next?"

Leng Mingyi is in poor health now, and the Leng family may...

"Look at the treatment plan at the hospital. If it can be cured, go all out. If it can't be cured, then just leave it to fate."

Leng Xinran was also very open-minded. In fact, she could only look away, because wasn't Leng Xinling the same way at the beginning?

When she said this, she silently lowered her eyelids to hide the melancholy that flashed across her eyes, but Lan Xiu could catch it clearly. At this moment, he felt a little distressed for the pressure she had to bear. Her seemingly indifferent indifference was just a strong resistance. Lan Xiu could understand that kind of pain.

Wasn't he the same when Lan Qi died?

He became a lonely man, just like her now.

Could it be that they are both people with hard lives?

"Don't be so pessimistic. There is always a way out. Isn't the hospital still looking for a suitable ****?"

Lan Xiu wanted to comfort her.

Leng Xinran smiled, "Don't comfort me like this. I'm fine. Maybe everything has its cause. He ended up like this today. In fact,... Don't worry. Even if I take over Leng Group in the future, I will treat you as my most loyal partner."

"Partner?"

Lan Xiu read these words in a low voice. When he raised his eyes to look at her, he found that her eyes had returned to their usual calmness.

And, he suddenly remembered the agreement she made half a year ago...

"What if, I think we should be more than just partners?"

After thinking for a while, Lan Xiu's fingertips slightly clenched the cup in his hand, looked at her, and asked lightly.
