Chapter 392 onwards is about his biological grandfather.
Late at night, the group moved to the old house with only some essential items.
Halfway there, the two little ones, Niannian and Suisui, also woke up, looking around blankly.
"Mommy, why is our house moving?"
Every year she blinks her eyes, even though she's so sleepy, she still stubbornly refuses to close them.
Although Sui Sui didn't say anything, you could tell from his eyes that he was also very confused.
"It's okay, there was a problem with the house over there, so we're moving to a different place now."
Lin Ran showed no impatience and gently comforted the two children, but they refused to go back to sleep and insisted on going to see what the new house looked like.
"Nonsense, you little brat. If you don't behave, I'll spank you."
Just as Nian Nian was snuggling in Lin Ran's arms and acting coquettishly, Old Man Li couldn't help but say something.
The year suddenly fell silent.
Seeing this, Old Man Li couldn't help but purse his lips, wondering if he had been too harsh.
Just as he was hesitating about whether to apologize to the little guy, a snoring sound suddenly came from Lin Ran's arms.
The little guy who was just making a fuss has now fallen asleep.
The people in the car exchanged glances and couldn't help but chuckle.
Not long after, the car slowly came to a stop. Lin Ran carefully moved her body, afraid of waking Niannian. But she didn't expect that even though she moved so gently, the child in her arms still woke up immediately.
"Mommy, have we arrived?"
"Well, we're here."
Since things had come to this, Lin Ran was too lazy to coax her to sleep anymore. She simply put her on the ground and let her follow her in.
The two little ones were very easy to manage; they simply held hands and followed the three adults inside.
Although the old house had been uninhabited for a long time, it was kept clean by servants, so there was nothing unclean. The rooms in the house were also enough for the few of them to live in.
"Sui Sui, Nian Nian, come here."
Just as the two little ones were about to go back to sleep, Lin Ran suddenly called them back and led them, one on each side, to Old Man Li.
"Kneel down."
Before the two children could even process what was happening, they had already smoothly knelt down with a thud.
"Hey, what's going on? Get up, everyone stand up."
“Old Li, if you hadn’t risked your life to come in tonight, the two children, Xiao Jingchen and I, might really have died at home.”
Lin Ran's voice seemed to choke up, and she paused for a long time before continuing.
"Moreover, Sui Sui just had a relapse, and if it weren't for your presence..."
The voice beside me trembled incessantly as it finished speaking, haltingly.
"So, no matter what, the two children will be your grandchildren from now on, and they will take care of you in your old age and see you off when you die."
Nian Nian's face still showed a hint of confusion, but she understood three words.
"Grandpa".
"grandfather!"
She blinked and called out in a clear, crisp voice.
Sui Sui followed closely behind, shouting out with a solemn expression.
Old Li stood there stunned for a long time, reaching out to take his pipe, but then suddenly remembered something and silently withdrew his hand, wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.
"Okay, okay."
Hearing what Old Man Li said, Lin Ran let the two children stand up and go back to their room to rest.
In the small garden outside, Xiao Jingchen held a cigarette between his fingers, listened to the report on his phone, and took a deep drag.
"You mean, there's a corpse?"
"Yes, Mr. Xiao, and she was holding matches in her hand, which was clearly implying to us that she was the one who started the fire."
Xiao Jingchen's fingertips trembled as he scattered the cigarette ash. In the dim light, his eyes were unfathomable.
"Bury it."
Behind her, Lin Ran watched as Xiao Jingchen hung up the phone before walking over.
"No evidence found?"
"Yes, the perpetrator is dead."
Xiao Jingchen curled his lips in a mocking smile, stubbed out his cigarette, and threw it on the ground.
"Don't worry, I won't let Xiao Yunsi get away with this. He dared to do this, so he must have been prepared to bear the consequences."
"Go and get some rest. Were you scared last night?"
Xiao Jingchen's voice suddenly softened, and he draped his coat over Lin Ran's shoulders.
"Let's go back and rest."
"it is good."
Noticing the weariness in Xiao Jingchen's eyes, Lin Ran didn't say anything more, nodded, and went back to the room with him.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Wang Mei stumbled and ran towards the main road.
She never expected that her plans would be interrupted by the old man.
"Chuchu, don't worry, Mom won't give up. I will definitely make that little bitch Lin Ran apologize to you in person in the afterlife."
In the darkness, Wang Mei spoke softly.
From the moment she entered the Xiao family, she had been unable to contact Xiao Yunsi.
So from then on, all she could do was rely on herself.
Wang Mei walked forward aimlessly until she was awakened by the noise around her.
She slightly raised her eyes, looked at the bar in front of her, a hint of hesitation flashing in her eyes. After a long while, as if she had made a decision, she gritted her teeth and went inside.
She used the last of her money to buy a set of clothes from the waiter, washed the dust off her face in the bathroom, and changed into the shockingly short outfit.
She'd give up anything as long as it allowed her to get revenge.
The months in prison had made Wang Mei even thinner. Although her complexion was somewhat dull, the bar lights added a touch of hazy beauty to her appearance.
She took a deep breath and walked towards the liveliest table in the bar...
Outside the window, the sky was just beginning to lighten.
Having learned from his previous experience, Xiao Jingchen did not leave too many servants at the old mansion. Instead, he arranged for more bodyguards to guard the surrounding area.
Sui Sui and Niannian also stopped attending kindergarten again and stayed home with Old Man Li to study those herbs.
Meanwhile, inside the bar's room, Wang Mei stared at the man in front of her with fear in her eyes.
"Brother Dao, I... I guess I'll pass."
Wang Mei's clothes were disheveled, and her eyes were filled with terror.
"What? Weren't you begging me to protect you last night?"
"I'm telling you right now, as long as you're with me, I'll not only let that stinky woman who bothers you get away with it, but I'll also satisfy any outrageous demands you have."
The man called Brother Dao took out a packet of white powder from his pocket, sniffed it hard, and his face instantly turned blank.
Wang Mei swallowed hard, her face contorted with fear, wishing she could run away right now.
She just wanted to find someone to help her get revenge, but she never thought of getting involved with this kind of thing. Once you come into contact with it, there's no turning back...
