I don't know if it was because of Shi Ran's beating that Shi Guang compromised and agreed to the marriage.
So, he was let out of the room, but he was not allowed to leave Shi's house, and he was restricted from seeing Shi Ran, and he was always followed by two people.
"Time is up."
Shi Ran looked at the time and went out.
The agreed place was the grove where they first met.
There were small stars hanging in the sky and the surroundings were still dark. Shiran used the flashlight of his mobile phone to shine and looked around cautiously.
"Tokiran."
Song Sichen walked out of the dark forest.
"Song Sichen, did your business trip go well?"
Song Sichen went on a business trip some time ago and we haven't seen each other yet. As soon as he came back, Shi Ran called him out.
"What's going on? Why are you meeting here?"
Song Sichen immediately took Shi Ran's hand and asked.
"I need to see you for something."
Song Sichen held his mobile phone in his other hand. The flashlight he turned on illuminated the surrounding area even brighter. He raised his eyes and saw a small cut at the corner of Shi Ran's mouth and three band-aids on his neck. He frowned.
"Lip...neck..." He released his grip on Shi Ran's hand, then floated up to her cheek, gently caressing the corner of her mouth with his thumb, then slid it onto the wound on her neck, and carefully tore it open, Seeing a wound two to three centimeters long, he asked, "Who is it? Who did this?"
There was murderous intent in that gentle voice.
Song Sichen's eyes looked different from usual.
"..."
"Who hurt you?"
Song Sichen frowned and seemed to be even more painful.
Shi Ran shook his head at Song Sichen like this.
"I have other things to ask you for."
"You have to tell me first who made you hurt."
"It's not who hurt me, but why."
Song Sichen seemed dissatisfied that Shi Ran didn't tell who did it. Looking at Shi Ran's swollen lips, his eyes were still sharp, but he nodded obediently.
"How could it be hurt?"
"Actually a few days ago..."
Shi Ran briefly told Song Sichen what happened during this period.
Finally added.
"That's why I need you, Song Sichen."
"ah……"
After listening to Shi Ran's words, Song Sichen blinked and smiled.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Because Shiran needs me."
"Is this worth laughing at?"
"Because Shiran is very powerful and can do it all by himself, so I'm very happy that you need me."
"Come with me."
Shi Ran took Song Sichen's hand and slowly walked out of the forest.
On the way here, Shi Ran had already told Song Sichen the plan, and finally stood in the backyard.
"Shi Ran, if it were you, would you also run away from marriage?"
Shi Ran thought for a while and then said: "I have never thought about this problem, but I will only be with the person I like. If it is not that person, I will resist to the end."
"Can't I?"
Shi Ran raised his head and patted Song Sichen's head gently, and said with a smile: "Song Sichen, I leave it to you, take the person out and send him out of Shi's house." After saying that, he took out a card from his pocket. Place it in Song Sichen's palm. "There is one million in it, which is enough for them to live for a long time. If you don't regret it, it will be a matter of the future. Song Sichen, thank you."
"Don't worry, I will definitely get things done." Song Sichen nodded. "I will have people erase the whereabouts of these two people. As long as they don't show up on their own initiative, they won't be found within a few months."
"Um."
Shi Ran nodded, believing in Song Sichen's ability to do things.
She returned to her room, sat on the balcony, and looked up at the stars in the sky.
Thinking back to Song Sichen's question, if it were her, would she run away from marriage?
Her marriage will definitely not be a business marriage.
For business matters, she will rely on her own ability, and the person she wants to marry must be the one she wants to marry.
"Song Sichen...Song Sichen..."
Shiran looked at the night sky and repeated his name.
Thinking that he had almost left Nanhu, Shi Ran got up and appeared in his grandfather's study.
Pushing open the study door, I saw grandpa still sitting at the desk in the study, looking at documents.
It's already past ten o'clock in the evening, and grandpa hasn't rested yet.
"grandfather."
Shiran poked his head out.
"Shiran." Grandpa raised his head, saw it was Shiran, waved, and put down the document in his hand. "Why are you still up so late?"
"Grandpa, I did something wrong, and I came here to admit it proactively."
Shi Ran pursed his lips and walked towards his grandfather.
Did Shi Ran really make a mistake?
She just wants her lover to get married eventually.
"Tell me."
"I know Brother Shiguang doesn't want to be with someone he doesn't like, so I helped him escape."
"..."
After hearing this, the grandfather's face showed no change in expression and he did not speak.
To be honest, I'm not sure Grandpa would advocate this method of killing first and telling the story later, even though Grandpa didn't agree with Shi Guang's marriage to Mrs. Song's niece.
"I'll give Brother Shiguang one million. It shouldn't be a problem to survive. Grandpa, I know this method is not a good one, but all I can think of is running away. I don't want Brother Shiguang to regret it for the rest of his life like my father. Grandpa, I'm sorry for not listening to you. If there is any punishment, I will bear it."
"Did your uncle hit you on the face?"
Grandpa's question surprised Shi Ran.
He was stunned for a moment before nodding.
"If you don't do this kind of thing, grandpa won't let time get involved with the Song family."
"Thank you, grandpa."
"Shiran! You are really the smartest girl grandpa has ever seen."
Listening to his grandfather's words, Shiran slowly walked to his side and gently squeezed his shoulders.
"Grandpa, my uncle must be very angry when I help Brother Shiji escape. Can you please help Grandpa to help Brother Shiji and stop him from sending people to find Brother Shiji?"
Grandpa suddenly smiled kindly and said, "If you didn't tell me, Grandpa would have done it."
Shi Ran breathed a sigh of relief obviously.
"Brother Shi Ran has escaped from marriage, and the Song family will not let go of the Shi family. Although they have always fought secretly before, this time, they are likely to suffer revenge from the Song family." Shi Ran also thought of this before, and she has her own countermeasures , and after thinking about it, I felt that there was nothing wrong with this. "In this way, we are completely on par with the Song family."
"The worst we can do is quit Nanhu. Our Shi family will be able to carve out a niche wherever we go."
Shiran knew what grandpa said was not a lie.
However, who can give up such a large industry? It was my grandfather’s hard work. It took decades to get to where it is now. No one would be willing to give up like this.
So does Tokizen.
"Grandpa, don't worry, we won't leave Nanhu. I will protect the Shi family and no one can take it away."
"As expected of my precious granddaughter! The most amazing!"
Grandpa said with a smile, as if he was joking, and did not take Shiran's words seriously.
