Chapter 298 Song Yan
Chapter 298 Song Yan
"Baby, do you really smell a rotten odor?" Ci Nian asked worriedly with a nervous look on his face, his brows wrinkled into small pimples.
Gu Ranle nodded without hesitation.
She is extremely sensitive to smells, and she will never make a mistake with a smell she has smelled before.
Moreover, she actually had an even more terrifying detail hidden in her heart, which she did not dare to tell Ci Nian.
That rotten smell was clearly the pungent stench emitted by a rotting corpse.
She knew in her heart that if she told this to others, Ci Nian would be terrified.
But in her heart, she really wanted to tell Ci Nian that although there are many beautiful things in this world, human hearts can sometimes be very complicated and sinister.
Who knows how many dirty, bloody and cruel things are hidden in places she can see and cannot see.
It's certainly right for people to have good intentions in their hearts, but we should also be on guard against others.
When Ci Nian heard this, the worry on her face became even more intense, and her whole face turned pale and ugly.
Her voice was trembling as she said, "Baby, are those two people who just got on the car in danger? Is that taxi driver a murderer? I've seen this kind of person on TV. They're so cruel. They kill people without blinking an eye."
Gu Ranle sighed helplessly, stretched out her long arm, gently hugged Ci Nian's shoulders, and said, "Please, Ms. Ci Nian, can you not be so motherly? There are too many bad people in this world to count, can you worry enough? For now, you should take good care of yourself first. You must be more careful about Yu Chuan."
Ci Nian nodded obediently and said, "Mom remembers everything the baby said."
Gu Ranle rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "You, you just remembered it verbally, but you didn't take it seriously at all. I'm telling you again seriously, just take care of yourself, why do you care so much about other people's affairs?"
Ci Nian quickly raised three fingers and swore like a little kid, "I know, I know, I know everything baby said. I swear, I really remember it this time, and I will definitely worry more about me in the future."
Gu Ranle nodded in satisfaction and said, "Okay, let's go. I'll take you to choose a bodyguard first. After choosing a bodyguard, we'll go buy a car right away."
Originally, she had planned to give Ci Nian a cool sports car.
But now after thinking about it carefully, I changed my mind and decided to buy an off-road vehicle.
Although sports cars look cool, they are too eye-catching. When driving on the road, they can easily be targeted by people with bad intentions.
Off-road vehicles are practical, low-key and safe to drive.
The two of them took a taxi and went straight to the security company of Ci Nian’s friend’s house.
When they arrived at the place, they saw a figure pacing back and forth at the door from afar.
Gu Ranle raised her eyebrows, looked at Ci Nian, with a hint of doubt in her eyes, and asked, "Isn't your friend a woman?"
Ci Nian quickly explained, "This is my friend's younger brother. I know him too. Don't worry, baby. This friend of mine is my college classmate. We have known each other for many years. She is also very familiar with her younger brother. He is absolutely reliable. Don't worry."
Gu Ranle couldn't help but mutter in his heart, knowing someone for many years means he must be a good person? In this day and age, people's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. How can you judge whether a person is good or bad just by how long you have known him?
But right now, that's not the point.
The point is, from the moment Ci Nian appeared, she found that this man's eyes seemed to be attached to Ci Nian, staring at her straight, and the emotion in his eyes could not be hidden.
Gu Ranle has always loved gossip, and her curiosity suddenly came up. She moved closer to Ci Nian and asked in a low voice, "Does your friend's brother have a girlfriend or is he married?"
Ci Nian tilted her head and thought for a while, then said, "It seems not. I heard from my friend that he does have a girl he likes, but I don't know why they are not together. But..."
At this point, Ci Nian scratched his head again and said with a troubled look on his face, "But this happened five years ago. I don't really know if he has had a girlfriend or got married in these five years."
"Baby, why are you asking that?" Ci Nian realized belatedly that Gu Ranle's words had more to say than anything else, and looked at her with a puzzled look on her face.
Gu Ranle raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and said, "I think he's quite good-looking, with a handsome appearance and good temperament, so I plan to introduce him to a girlfriend."
"Really, baby?" Upon hearing this, Ci Nian's eyes widened instantly, full of excitement. However, this excitement did not last for a few seconds. She suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and the excitement on her face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a look of confusion, "But baby, besides knowing mom, do you know other women here? Where can you introduce him to a girlfriend?"
Gu Ranle rolled his eyes at her and deliberately teased her, "Isn't knowing you enough?"
When Ci Nian heard this, she was stunned for a moment and stood there in a daze. It took her a long time to react.
She pointed at herself with a look of disbelief, "Baby, you mean... introduce mom to him? How can I do that? I absolutely cannot do that!"
Her head shook like a rattle, her hair flying around, and her face was full of resistance.
"Mom already has a daughter as old as you. How can you introduce mom to a young man who has never been married? What a scandal it would be if it got out! Besides, I'm three years older than him. Such an age gap is inappropriate."
Ci Nian frowned, looking distressed, as if this was a terrible thing.
"Is three years older a big deal?" Gu Ranle asked disapprovingly, "True love knows no age, Ms. Ci Nian. As long as two people like each other, age is not a problem at all."
"But..." Ci Nian wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Gu Ranle.
"Don't say buts. Maybe what you are worried about are not problems at all. Maybe she just likes someone like you who is three years older than her and has a daughter as old as me! Who can be sure about love?" Gu Ranle spread his hands, looking indifferent.
The mother and daughter were chatting with each other when the man came running over with big strides.
"Compassionate thoughts!"
As soon as the man saw Ci Nian, a bright smile immediately broke out on his face. That smile was like the sunshine in spring, warm and bright.
This man, who is about thirty years old, has a pair of eyes as clean and clear as a child's, without a trace of impurities. This is really rare in this complicated world.
With Gu Ranle's previous "reminder", Ci Nian suddenly felt her cheeks getting hot when facing the man's enthusiasm. Her face turned red and she became embarrassed.
In the past, she had never thought about the relationship between men and women, and always treated men as her best friend's younger brother, just like her own brother.
But now that Gu Ranle had revealed it, it was as if a small stone had been thrown into her heart, causing ripples.
She suddenly felt that perhaps what Gu Ranle said was right. This big boy whom she had known for many years and had always treated like a best friend and brother might really have that kind of intention towards her.
Of course, she didn't hate him in her heart.
I even vaguely felt that it would be nice if I could really be with him.
"Song Yan, let me introduce you, this is my daughter--"
Ci Nian had just started talking when she was interrupted by Gu Ranle.
"Girlfriend." Gu Ranle said carelessly, and took the initiative to extend his hand and look at Song Yan, "Hello, Song..."
As she spoke, she glanced at Ci Nian, as if asking if this man's name was Song Yan.
Ci Nian blinked, totally not understanding what she meant.
"Ci Nian, what's his name, Song Shi?" Gu Ranle asked again.
"Oh, his name is Song Yan." Ci Nian finally reacted and said quickly.
As soon as she said this, her eyes widened in surprise.
How come she didn't realize before that Song Yan and Song Yan's names are the same, with only one character difference.
Is this a coincidence, or is there some real hint in the universe?
Seeing that Ci Nian had reacted, Gu Ranle smiled and said, "Hello, Song Yan, my name is Gu Ranle, and Ci Nian and I are half-sisters."
"Half sisters?" Song Yan frowned when he heard this. This relationship was too complicated and he couldn't understand it for a moment.
However, he was a man who always respected others, so he wiped his hands on his trouser legs, shook Gu Ranle's hand a little nervously, and said, "Hello, Miss Gu."
