The capital's winter was called true winter. The current temperature was a dozen degrees below zero, as if even the breath it exhaled could quickly freeze into ice.
In the past, when she lived in the capital, Jian Ran didn't think this place was that cold.
In the past three years of living in Jiangbei, Jian Ran had long gotten used to and liked the relatively warm weather in the south.
Now that she returned to the capital, not only was the weather unbearably cold, but everything else was so unfamiliar to her that it seemed as if she had never been familiar with it before.
Sitting in Gu Nanjing's car with the heater on, Jian Ran still felt very cold. It was as if she was in an ice-cold cellar. She was shivering and her face was pale without a trace of blood.
Thinking of her mother, the mother who had been subservient and had endured the violence of her family for her entire life, in the end …
With that thought, Jian Ran closed her eyes and took a deep breath, holding her face in her hands.
At this moment, she was still able to remain so calm, as if nothing had happened. It was because she had not personally witnessed her mother's jump, nor her mother's corpse, so she did not believe that it was real.
Sometimes, people just liked to deceive themselves. They didn't see it with their own eyes, and still held onto a glimmer of hope.
At this moment, Jian Ran was lying to herself. She believed her mother was still alive and well. She couldn't find her mother because her mother was hidden by Jian Zhengtian.
Or perhaps, she felt that she was having a terrifying dream. When she slept at night and woke up, she would be able to see her mother standing before her.
"Of course …" Gu Nanjing stretched out his hand and wanted to embrace Jian Ran, but the pair of cold eyes on Jian Ran bitterly withdrew his hand.
Jian Ran looked at him coldly and turned her head to look outside the window.
Looking at the scenery passing by, the snowflakes became bigger and bigger, the streets were covered in a white fog, there were almost no pedestrians on the road, it was a city without any signs of life.
Staring at Jian Ran for a long time, Gu Nanjing let out a long sigh and said, "Of course, I'll tell you the truth. Sheng Tian's Leo Qin has his eyes on you, he wants you. "
"Leo Qin has his eyes on me?" Jian Ran found it fu
y. She had never met Leo Qin before, so how did that lecherous man fall for her?
"You might think it's strange that Leo Qin knows you? Furthermore, why would they have their eyes on you? " Gu Nanjing smiled. "Then you have to ask your good husband, Qin Yue."
Jian Ran raised her eyebrows. "What do you mean?"
Gu Nanjing added: "Why did Qin Yue take you to that charity di
er not long ago? Why didn't he touch you after you'd been married so long? He just registered with you and got married, and then he took up the post of the i
ovative CEO? "There are many things that I can understand just by thinking about them."
Jian Ran sat in Gu Nanjing's car and never thought of escaping because she received a WeChat from Qin Yue before she got on the car.
Qin Yue told her to follow Gu Nanjing, and Gu Nanjing told her to meet whoever she wanted to meet.
Therefore, she did not do anything and just followed Gu Nanjing to meet the legendary Sheng Tian's super big BOSS — — Leo Qin.
She believed in Qin Yue. Qin Yue definitely had his reasons for telling her to do this and didn't think about other bad things.
However, after hearing what Gu Nanjing said, Jian Ran became suspicious.
Could it be that Qin Yue's thoughts were the same as Gu Nanjing's, that because the Sheng Tian's Leo Qin had his eyes on her, he would give her to someone else in order to gain power?
Gold power, power, benefits...
For these intangible things, Jian Zhengtian could beat his wife and use his daughter as a tool.
In a man's heart, could his wife and daughter be exchanged for anything?
Jian Ran knew that she shouldn't suspect Qin Yue like that, but she couldn't help but think about it.
With this thought in her heart, Jian Ran felt uneasy.
What if what Qin Yue showed her these days was fake?
What if Qin Yue was the same as Jian Zhengtian?
So what was she to do with this loveless marriage?
Thinking of this, Jian Ran felt that she had to go with Gu Nanjing to see Leo Qin. Only by going there could she find out what Qin Yue was thinking and doing.
Knowing that a seed of doubt was successfully planted in Jian Ran's heart, Gu Nanjing continued, "Leo Qin should be the man that all women dream of. Young and handsome, the most important thing is that he is the master of that huge business empire."
"To be able to catch his eye is probably the greatest wish of many women in their lives. If he were to just give you something, it would be enough for you to live a good life for a lifetime. "
"And that nominal husband of yours, Qin Yue, after all, is not enough to be one of Leo Qin's lackeys. He can use you to gain more benefits from Leo Qin. "
"I know you don't want to come back to me, but you can take this opportunity to catch Leo Qin. He can help you do a lot of things that you can't do."
After saying so much, Gu Nanjing still didn't see any change in Jian Ran's expression. Finally, he added, "For example, I would like to borrow Leo Qin to do something within his capabilities for your dead mother."
Jian Ran suddenly laughed. With a crooked smile, she said, "Gu Nanjing, aren't you afraid that I'll use Leo Qin to deal with you?"
Gu Nanjing: "..."
He really didn't consider this issue. He only thought of giving Jian Ran to Leo Qin as a gift, but he never thought that Jian Ran would bite back at him.
Jian Ran continued, "Gu Nanjing, as long as I don't want to, no one can force me to do anything. That includes Leo Qin, who you all want to hug. "
Leo Qin was very rich and good-looking. He was indeed the man that many women yearned for in their dreams, but so what?
Although Qin Yue's status wasn't as high as Leo Qin's and he wasn't as rich as her, but Qin Yue was good to her. As long as Qin Yue treated her sincerely and accompanied her well, then she would never have second thoughts in her life.
Jian Ran indeed wanted to do something for her mother and make Jian Zhengtian lose his reputation even more, but she had her own way. Who said that she must borrow Leo Qin's power?
Gu Nanjing explained a lot in one breath. He didn't want Jian Ran to do something for him by using Leo Qin. He said all this because he didn't want Jian Ran to live with that surnamed Qin again.
After Jian Ran and Leo Qin fell in love, she would naturally throw that surnamed Qin off. At that time, he would have a good look at the miserable state that surnamed Qin was in.
Gu Nanjing was the kind of person who would rather destroy than let others have him if he couldn't get his way.
However, what Jian Ran said just now made Gu Nanjing feel that what he said to her was like a rock smashing onto his own feet.
