Father Lin’s condition was quite stable. Apart from losing a lot of weight, he was in good spirits. When he saw an ran coming over, he even spoke to her very enthusiastically. However, compared to father Lin, mother Lin’s spirit was a lot worse. Her entire face was full of worry, and she couldn’t hide the bitterness in her smile. In fact, the series of events that had happened during this period of time had been a huge blow to mother Lin. Lin Li had just recovered a little, and father Lin had been diagnosed with such an illness. However, in Lin Li’s words, the only thing to be thankful for was that it was discovered early, so it wasn’t too late to treat it.

When su Yicheng returned home that night, he clearly noticed that someone’s mood seemed to be a little off. He spoke less, and the smile on his face was even less.

So, after dinner, an ran was a little out of it when she got up to clean up the dishes. &Quot; an ran. &Quot; someone called out to her.

Anran’s reaction was a little slow. She looked at him in a daze and only asked after a while, ” “What’s wrong?”

Su Yicheng reached out and took her hand. His large palm rubbed her small hand, and he smiled faintly and gently. &Quot; I was the one who wanted to ask you what’s wrong. You’ve been frowning the whole night. What exactly happened? ”

Anran looked at him and thought of Lin Li. Her heart still felt tight, and after a long time, she said, ” &Quot; Lin Li is back. Father Lin has stomach cancer and is now in the city Hospital. &Quot;

Su Yicheng furrowed his brows. As expected, this was not news that could make him happy. He understood the relationship between Anran and Lin Li, so he could understand how she felt at the moment.

He gently patted her hand and consoled her, ” “Don’t worry, it’ll get better.”

Anran nodded, then suddenly thought of something. She looked at su Yicheng and said, ” &Quot; can you lend your apartment to Lin Li and the others for the time being? Lin Li used to live with Chengxiang, but now that they’ve broken up, she’s still living in the guest house after returning to Jiangcheng. &Quot;

Su Yicheng corrected her. &Quot; Anran, ” he said. &Quot; don’t separate everything so clearly. It’ll make us seem too distant. &Quot; We’re husband and wife, that house is not only mine, it’s also yours, it’s ours together. Besides, we’re not living in that house anyway. It’s empty anyway, so you can lend it to anyone you want. You have the right to decide. You don’t have to ask me, understand?”

Anran smiled at him, nodded, and thanked him out of habit. &Quot; thank you. &Quot;

Su Yicheng chuckled as he reached out to pinch her nose, then gently stroked her face with his large palm and said, ” &Quot; I’ll call the director of chasu City Hospital tomorrow and tell them to pay more attention to father Lin. Everything will be fine, so don’t worry, okay? ”

“Yes, yes.” Anran nodded hard and put her hand on his big palm to get more warmth from his palm. She said indifferently, ” “Yicheng, thank you. I seem to always trouble you.”

“Silly girl.” Su Yicheng scolded her, but his tone was full of affection. He pulled his hand away from her face, walked around the bar counter, and entered the kitchen. He stepped forward and pulled her into his arms, gently stroking her hair with his hand, and softly said in her ear, ” who else would you trouble if not me? besides, I don’t think you’re trouble at all. If you’re really trouble, then you’re sweet trouble. &Quot;

Anran chuckled in his arms, and her bad mood was swept away by his words. She placed her hand on his chest, and her fingers gently played with the buttons on his shirt pocket. She asked, ” “Leader su, were you saying sweet words just now?”

Su Yicheng also laughed, but instead of answering, he asked, ” “What do you think?”

An ran nodded firmly. &Quot; yes. &Quot; She was really touched by his sweet words, and even now, she still felt a little sweet in her heart.

The next day, when Anran bought some fruits to visit father Lin, Lin Li happened to be accompanying father Lin for a checkup. Mother Lin was sitting alone in the ward, tidying up some trivial things. Her brows were slightly furrowed, and she looked a little Haggard.

“Mother Lin,” An ran came in with some fruits.

Mother Lin turned around and saw her coming over. She smiled and said, ” Anran, you’re here. &Quot; Looking at the fruits in her hands, he reproached her unhappily, ” it’s good that you’re here. Why did you buy these? we can’t finish them. &Quot;

Anran put the fruit in her hand on the counter with a smile and asked, ” “Where are Lin Li and father Lin?”

&Quot; a nurse came over this morning and said that she’s arranged for our elder Lin to do a detailed examination today. Xiaoli is accompanying her father. &Quot; Mother Lin looked at Anran and asked, ” the nurse said that it was the director’s orders. Lin Li said that it must be your Sir’s orders to the director. Right? ”

Anran nodded slightly, thinking that su Yicheng was really efficient. She had only told him last night, but he had already arranged for a checkup this morning. Once again, she was very grateful to him. She was grateful that he treated her friend as his own friend.

Mother Lin took an ran’s hand and said sincerely, ” Anran, I really have to thank you. &Quot;

&Quot; mother Lin, you’re welcome. Lin Li and I are friends. This is what I should do. Besides, Lin Li has stood up for me many times in the past. &Quot; An ran held her hand back and pulled mother Lin to sit down on the edge of the bed with her. “Mother Lin, are you still living in the guest house with Lin Li?” she continued.

&Quot; yes, Xiaoli hasn’t found a suitable house yet. She can only stay in a guest house for now. &Quot; Mother Lin said indifferently.

&Quot; mother Lin, I have an empty place. Why don’t you and Lin Li stay at my place first? it’s not too late to move after finding a suitable house. It’s not good to stay in the guest house all the time. &Quot; An ran said. She knew that Lin Li probably wouldn’t agree to it. She was afraid that she would trouble her, so she could only try to get her mother to agree.

“How can we accept this? we’ve already troubled you enough.” Mother Lin felt a little apologetic. Last time, it was Anran who had been busy with Lin Li’s matter. She had taken care of the ward and the doctor. This time, she had just come to see her yesterday, and someone had already asked her to do a checkup early in the morning. All of this was because of Anran, so how could she still trouble Anran and the others?

An ran took her hand and sighed. &Quot; &Quot; mother Lin, Lin Li and I have been friends for 10 years. Lin Li sees my parents as her parents, so I naturally see you as my own parents. Now that father Lin is sick, I’m doing you a small favor and a small token of my appreciation. What trouble can there be? besides, my house is empty anyway. No one usually lives in it. Instead of leaving it empty, why can’t I let you live in it? ”

“This … This is still not appropriate.” Mother Lin still felt that it was inappropriate. In fact, she just didn’t want to trouble others. Even if Anran felt that it was fine, she would still feel embarrassed.

“Mother Lin, I’m really going to get angry if you keep treating me like an outsider.” Anran said, pretending to be angry.

&Quot; I’ll pay you rent, ” mother Lin said after some thought. &Quot; you’re not allowed to fight with me over this. Otherwise, we’ll be too embarrassed to live there. &Quot; His tone was very insistent.

Anran sighed softly and nodded helplessly. She thought to herself, ” if she wants to give it to me, then I’ll just accept it. &Quot;

The two sat down and chatted for a while before Lin Li helped father Lin in from outside. After all the examinations, father Lin’s face was a little pale and he seemed a little tired. He fell asleep not long after lying on the bed.

Mother Lin explained Anran’s intentions to Lin Li. Lin Li looked at Anran and nodded helplessly.

After lunch, Anran and Lin Li went to the guest house to pack their things. As they packed, Lin Li still asked worriedly, ” Anzi, is it really okay for us to move in like this? ” Have you discussed this with your leader su? also, did your mother-in-law say anything?” It was said that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was the most difficult. She didn’t want Anran to make things difficult for them because of her.

&Quot; don’t worry and move in. I’ve talked to Yicheng, and he agreed. Also, my mother-in-law and the others don’t live with us. They usually live in the military compound. Yicheng and I will go back and lie down on the weekends occasionally. &Quot; An ran said as she folded the clothes.

Hearing her say this, Lin Li was relieved. She nodded and said, ” “That’s good.” Suddenly, as if he had noticed something, he turned his head and looked at Anran with a slightly ambiguous expression. &Quot; “Yicheng, Yicheng, Anzi, you’re on good terms with your leader su.”

Anran’s small face blushed unnaturally. She rolled her eyes at her and said, ” &Quot; he’s my husband. If I’m not on good terms with him, I’d say we’re on good terms! &Quot;

Lin Li also laughed. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, ” “An Zi, you’ve been married to your leader su for quite some time now, right? is there still no sign of pregnancy?”

Upon hearing this, Anran was embarrassed, and her face was extremely red. She glared at Lin Li. &Quot; why are you talking so much nonsense? ” As she said that, she turned around in a fit of pique out of embarrassment.

Looking at Anran’s face, which was as red as an Apple, Lin Li laughed out loud without caring about her image.

Hearing this, Anran turned her head and stared at her. It had been a long time since she had seen such a smile. It seemed that ever since she told Lin Li that Chengxiang was with someone outside, she hadn’t seen such a smile for a long time. It was so long that she felt like a century had passed!

“Lin Li, can you really let go of Chengxiang in your heart?”

As she watched the smile on her face slowly fade away, leaving only a helpless coldness, Anran finally realized that she had already asked the question in her heart.

&Quot; Lin Li, I … &Quot; it seemed to be too late to regret it now. Anran looked at her in a daze. There were a few times when Anran wanted to say something, but when the words reached her mouth, she didn’t know what to say.

After a long time, Lin Li finally reacted. She looked at her and firmly nodded, saying indifferently, ” “I’ve already put it down.” He lowered his head and put the folded clothes into his Luggage Bag.

Since she had already asked, Anran might as well get to the bottom of it today. Before this, she had been afraid of hurting her, so she didn’t even dare to mention Chengxiang’s name in front of her. Now that she had asked thoroughly today, she would at least have some clues if she wanted to help her in the future, and she wouldn’t be so confused.

Looking at her, Anran asked tentatively, ” what if Chengxiang turned around and told you that the person he loves now is you? would you still be willing to forgive him? ” He stared at her seriously, not missing the expression on her face at all.

She paused for a moment before she reacted and put the clothes back into the duffel bag.

“Lin Li?” An ran called out, forcing her to face her own question.

As she spoke, she put the clothes in her hands into the bag. Lin Li didn’t even raise her head and only said indifferently, ” “I won’t!” His tone was decisive and without any hesitation.

An ran looked at her without saying anything.

After putting the last piece of clothing into the duffel bag, Lin Li raised her head and looked at Anran. A bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth as she said, ” “We can’t go back to how we were before. Even if he tells me now that the one he loves is me, it’s too late. I can’t move anymore. These ten years have used up all the courage and strength of my lover, and I can’t move anymore.”

&Quot; Lin Li … &Quot; Anran looked at her worriedly and regretted getting too close to her. Her wound hadn’t even healed yet, and now she had to face everything she didn’t want to face in the first place.

Lin Li shook her head and looked at her with a bitter smile. &Quot; besides, there was a life between us. Even if it was very young, so young that he was still a small embryo when he left, I still remember him being separated from my stomach bit by bit. In the end, he had nothing to do with me at all. I will never forget this feeling in my life. &Quot; As she spoke, Lin Li’s emotions seemed to be a little agitated, and her hands clenched into fists little by little.

Anran walked over to her, a little worried. She reached out and held her hand tightly. She looked into her eyes with a hint of apology.

Lin Li returned to her senses and glanced at her indifferently. Her lips twitched, and she picked up the duffel bag and said to her, ” let’s go. &Quot;

Anran nodded and picked up the other bag from the bed. The two of them walked out of the guest house together.

The entire journey became a little strange, and the two of them barely spoke. Anran drove seriously, while Lin Li looked out the window seriously. The two of them had a tacit understanding and didn’t speak.

In fact, su Yicheng’s single apartment wasn’t far from the hospital. It was a ten-minute drive.

Anran parked the car in front of the door, and the two of them carried their things and prepared to go upstairs. When the elevator door opened, Anran couldn’t help but be stunned. Ling LAN, who was in the elevator, also seemed to be a little surprised. She looked at Anran for a long time, unable to come back to her senses.

Anran only looked at her indifferently. She walked past her and was about to go in when Ling LAN called out to her, ” miss Gu. &Quot;

Anran stopped in her tracks and turned to look at her. There was a faint smile on her face, and she only said, ” “I prefer to be called Mrs. Su.”

Lin Li looked at the two of them strangely. She could feel that the atmosphere was a little off. Based on her understanding of an ran, she rarely spoke so harshly and aggressively.

Ling LAN clenched her fists tightly, but her expression didn’t change. She looked at her and said, ” &Quot; I heard that miss Gu has been fired. Is that true? ”

It would have been better if she hadn’t said it, but now that she did, Anran felt even angrier. If she guessed correctly, the reason why Huang Dexing bribed Chen Cheng to steal the map and then had someone destroy the template room was probably because someone was giving him a plan behind his back, and the most likely possibility was the Ling family. With this in mind, Anran said in a slightly displeased and mocking tone, ” &Quot; thank you for your concern, miss Ling. However, I didn’t resign as you said. I resigned. There are some fundamental differences between the two. &Quot;

“Is that so?” Ling LAN replied nonchalantly. She reached out and ruffled her alluring, curly hair. Her eyes were fixed on the door as she said nonchalantly, ” “But I heard that there was a problem with your design, which caused the collapse of the boards. If it wasn’t for ah Luo’s identity, director Huang would have definitely pursued this matter to the end.” Then, he turned to look at her meaningfully. &Quot; miss Gu, you’re really lucky. &Quot;

He stared at her for a while before Anran suddenly chuckled. &Quot; haha … &Quot; Hehe …”

Ling LAN frowned and said coldly, ” “What are you laughing at?”

Anran said with a smile, ” it’s nothing. Miss Ling is right. I am very lucky to have met Yicheng, but I still have to thank you for your help back then. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have become Mrs. Su. &Quot; The corners of her mouth were curled up beautifully, and she looked confident and beautiful.

“You!” Ling LAN glared at her, her beautiful eyes burning with anger.

Anran turned her head and ignored her. She directly said to Lin Li, ” “Let’s go up.”

Lin Li glanced at Ling LAN, who was behind her, and nodded. She followed Anran into the elevator.

When the elevator door slowly closed, Anran finally relaxed. She leaned against the elevator wall, her chest heaving up and down in anger.

Lin Li looked at her worriedly. &Quot; an Zi, are you okay? ”

Anran shook her head and smiled at her.

“Who was that woman just now?” She could tell that the woman was hostile to an ran, and it was very strong!

Anran shook her head and only said,”an irrelevant person.” &Nbsp;

Lin Li still wanted to ask something, but the elevator arrived at this time, and Anran was the first to get out of the elevator.

The furniture and other daily necessities in the apartment were all complete, but it had been a while since anyone lived in it, so there was some dust in the house. Lin Li was responsible for sorting out the clothes and toiletries that she had brought over, while Anran was responsible for cleaning the entire house from inside to outside. When the two of them worked together to clean up everything, they raised their hands to look at the time. It was almost five o ‘clock.

Lin Li didn’t stay any longer and prepared to return to the hospital. She also bought some food from outside the hospital. She had been eating the food in the hospital for the past two days, and her parents ‘mouths were almost tasteless.

Anran, on the other hand, had to go back and make a shoddy dinner, so that when su Yicheng returned, the two of them could start eating.

The two of them took the elevator down. Anran was prepared to drive Lin Li to the hospital first and then take a detour home. Just as she was about to open the car door and get in, a small figure suddenly ran towards her from behind. “Auntie!” She called out as she ran.

Anran came back to her senses and turned to look behind her. She saw Zhou Han’s son, Xiao bin, running towards her while shouting.

An ran was a little surprised. She didn’t expect to meet this smiling guy here, and she seemed to be quite fated with this little guy.

The little guy ran over and stood in front of an ran. His black eyes stared at an ran, and he was still panting.

Anran smiled and bent over to touch the little guy’s head. She asked with a smile, ” “Xiaobin, what are you doing here? where’s your dad?”

The little guy didn’t say anything and just stared at her. His little mouth was slightly pouted, and his expression seemed a little reluctant to see Anran.

Anran looked at him strangely and asked, ” “What’s wrong? Did dad scold you?”

The little guy shook his head and turned around to look into the lobby of the building, as if he was looking for something.

An ran didn’t care. She just smiled and touched his head.

“An Zi, whose child is this?” Lin Li asked, puzzled.

“It’s a friend. We’re quite fated. We met a few times on the way.” She then touched his head and continued, ” &Quot; however, the child’s father is too incompetent. He’s wailed a few times! Wailed! &Quot;

Before Anran could finish her sentence, she was suddenly pushed. She lost her balance and took a few steps back. Then, her body fell backward. Her hand instinctively wanted to grab onto something, but the car was too smooth, so she didn’t manage to grab onto anything. However, the friction between her hand and the car reduced the weight of Anran’s fall.

Lin Li watched Anran fall over and screamed, ” “An Zi!” He didn’t think too much and ran towards her.

Her left elbow, which was on the ground, seemed to have scraped the skin. A burning pain came, and an ran couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

Lin Li went forward to help her up and asked worriedly, ” are you okay? ”

An ran couldn’t speak, because it wasn’t just her elbow that was in pain. There was also a faint pain in her stomach.

Seeing that she was in so much pain that she couldn’t speak, Lin Li angrily turned her head to look at the ‘perpetrator’ in front of her and said sternly, ” “What’s wrong with you, kid? how can you push someone on purpose? What did the adults in your family teach you?” Just now, she had seen everything clearly. The moment she spoke to Anran, the child suddenly took a step forward and pushed Anran away with all his might.

The little guy pouted and looked at them pitifully. He then turned to look behind him, but there was no one there.

Lin Li chided him and didn’t have the heart to talk nonsense with him. Looking at Anran’s pained expression in her arms, she panicked. &Quot; Anran, how are you? can you stand up? ” Logically speaking, she should have just stood up after falling, but the more she looked at Anran, the weirder her expression became.

Anran grabbed Lin Li’s hand tightly and covered her stomach with one hand. She said with some difficulty, ” “Lin Li, my, my stomach hurts!”

Lin Li was shocked. She seemed to have thought of something and looked at her. &Quot; Anran, you’re teasing me. &Quot;

“What’s going on?” A deep voice came from behind him.

Lin Li turned around and looked at the person for help, saying, ” “Sir, please help me call an ambulance.”

Zhou han looked at her, then at Anran in her arms, and finally at Zhou Jiabin, who was standing in front of them with a guilty look on his face. He asked sternly, ” “You did this?”

Zhou Jiabin’s entire body trembled when he was yelled at. He looked at him and tears fell down immediately. However, he didn’t dare to cry out loud and just sobbed softly.

Upon seeing this, Zhou han understood and didn’t say anything more. He bent down and picked Anran up from Lin Li’s arms. He glanced at his son and said to Lin Li, ” &Quot; I’ll take her to the hospital. Please help me bring the child here. &Quot;

Lin Li was stunned for a moment before she realized that this man was the child’s father. She quickly nodded and went forward to take the child’s hand and keep up with his footsteps.
