After a secret marriage, I became the biological mother of a rich and cute baby

Chapter 454 Come on, Dad, let fate come sooner!

Butler Xue has already contacted the drug testers, and someone will come to get the medicine soon.

He was curious and was observing the medicine in his hand, with many speculations flashing through his mind.

The most terrifying guess for him was that the young lady gave this medicine to poison the young master.

In the past, when the young master lived in the old house of the Shi family, he was given a chronic poison.

If this was true, he couldn't imagine how terrible it would be.

Gu Jinlan's questioning voice suddenly sounded behind him, which frightened the old housekeeper Xue so much that he trembled and almost dropped the medicine on the ground.

He quickly put his hands into his trouser pockets and hid the medicine in there.

"Madam, what's wrong?"

Gu Jinlan was slightly stunned and glanced up and down at Butler Xue.

He looked weird with his hands in his trouser pockets...

But I can’t tell what’s strange about it.

Perhaps it was because Butler Xue always looked elegant and meticulous. He always stood straight, and when talking to her and Shi Ye, he would lean forward slightly, being humble and respectful.

And the way he put his hands in his pockets at this moment, compared to usual, seemed... very unserious.

Seeing Gu Jinlan looking at him, Butler Xue immediately took his hands out of his trouser pockets, clasped them in front of him, leaned forward slightly, and returned to his normal posture.

"Madam, what did you just ask me?"

"Where did Aye go?"

"I don't know. The master didn't say."

Gu Jinlan thought to himself that today was the weekend and Shi Ye should not be going to the group.

Moreover, when he goes to work at the group, he always asks Xiao Li or special assistant Jiang to drive.

Steward Xue asked, "Does the young lady have any other instructions?"

"No, you go ahead and do your work."

Gu Jinlan turned around to leave, when a live-in bodyguard from the manor came over.

"Madam, Steward Xue, there is a middle-aged couple outside. They say they are Madam's adoptive parents and want to see Madam."

Butler Xue looked at Gu Jinlan's back.

Gu Jinlan turned around, his expression cold, "No."

The bodyguard said, "But they said they would stay at the door until they could see the lady."

"Then chase them away. If they don't leave, call the police and report them for trespassing."

After saying this, Gu Jinlan turned and left.

Since yesterday, Ye Hongyu and Fang Yue have been taking turns calling her, and now they come to her house again.

If she guessed correctly, they should be here for the Zhao family.

The Zhao family's plan to bankrupt the Ye family must have scared them out of their wits.

For both of them, Bokai is their lifeblood, more important than anything else.

Even though Bo Kai has been put in a precarious situation by Ye Hongyu.

But without Bokai, the couple would have nothing.

What the couple cares about is always the power and money in their hands.

Back in the study upstairs, Gu Jinlan called Zhao Jinchen.

Zhao Jinchen was very happy to receive her call, and his voice was filled with joy that he couldn't hide, "Lanlan, have you thought it through?"

Gu Jinlan was silent. Hearing Zhao Jinchen's happy voice, she didn't have the heart to say anything else.

"Brother Zhao, I'm calling you because I want to talk to you about the Ye family."

"Oh..." Zhao Jinchen asked, feeling a little disappointed, "It's almost time for lunch. Do you have time at noon? Let's have lunch together and talk in person."

Gu Jinlan hesitated.

The affairs of the Ye family can be explained in just a sentence or two over the phone; there is no need for a face-to-face interview.

Zhao Jinchen didn't hear her answer, as if he had guessed what she was going to say, and added: "It's just lunch time, it won't take up too much of your time."

Gu Jinlan swallowed back the words that were about to be rejected and said, "Okay."

"Then I'll pick you up." Zhao Jinchen's voice was light and a little excited.

"Don't bother, I'll drive myself."

"No trouble. Anyway, I'm at home now, not far from you."

When he first wanted to settle down in Haicheng, he deliberately chose a place not far from Shi's home so that he could easily visit and interact with his close friends.

Gu Jinlan still refused. "Brother Zhao, that's really not necessary. I may have something to do this afternoon, so it would be more convenient for me to drive out by myself. Just send me the address of the restaurant, and we'll see you later."

Zhao Jinchen felt embarrassed to insist, so after hanging up the phone, he sent Gu Jinlan the address of a coffee shop.

Gu Jinlan went back upstairs to change her clothes and was about to go out.

As I walked out of the bedroom door, I met Shi Xingran.

"Is mom going out?"

Gu Jinlan squatted down in front of Shi Xingran and gently touched his head.

"Well, I have something to do outside, and my dad is not at home either. Let Yaoyao accompany Ranran for lunch at noon, okay?"

Shi Xingran nodded obediently and reached out to touch Gu Jinlan's belly.

Gu Jinlan was stunned.

Shi Xingran looked at her belly expectantly, "Is the little sister in there? When can she come out?"

Gu Jinlan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Ranran, not that fast."

"Okay." Shi Xingran sighed heavily, "Looks like I have to ask Dad to cheer me up!"

Gu Jinlan was shocked.

Don't! Don't!

Although she was obsessed with Shi Ye's body, she would not be able to bear it if he tried any harder.

Gu Jinlan was thinking about how to explain it to Ranran.

After organizing her words in her mind, she spoke: "Ranran, having a baby is not something that can be done by just hard work, it depends on fate."

"Fate?" Shi Xingran blinked blankly.

"Yes, every child who comes to this world is born because of some kind of fate. When the fate comes, Ranran will naturally have a little sister."

Shi Xingran looked as if he understood but not quite.

Gu Jinlan kissed his handsome face and said, "I have an appointment and can't be late. I'm leaving now."

After saying that, she stood up and left. Shi Xingran was still standing there thinking about the "fate" she mentioned.

He frowned slightly, nodded thoughtfully, and his expression was serious.

"I still have to ask Dad to cheer me up so that fate can come sooner!"

--

On the road with few vehicles, Gu Jinlan was driving very fast.

She didn't want Zhao Jinchen to wait for her too long, and wanted to use the speed of the car to make up for the time she had just wasted talking to Shi Xingran at home.

Gu Jinlan was very confident in her driving skills. When she arrived at the door of the coffee shop, she glanced at the time and thought she would definitely arrive before Zhao Jinchen.

However, when she walked into the coffee shop, she saw Zhao Jinchen waving at her from a window in a corner.

She walked over with a smile.

Zhao Jinchen took the coat she took off in a very gentlemanly manner.

"Brother Zhao, aren't you at home? How come you're here so soon?"

She knew where the Zhao family was, and at the normal driving speed, Zhao Jinchen should not arrive before her.

Zhao Jinchen said: "I occasionally go speeding in private. When I see few cars on the road, I will unconsciously speed up."

Of course, the most important thing is that he can't wait to see his little sister.

He didn't want her to arrive first and sit alone in the cafe.

From now on, no matter what the circumstances or at any time, he didn't want his little sister to be alone again.

He hopes that no matter where she goes in the future, there will be tenderness waiting for her.
