Chapter 204: The New Assistant
Suddenly, Lan Tingyun called Lan Anran, wanting to ask how Zhao Xiumei was doing at home.
“Dad, don’t worry, I learned this from a recipe. Grandma sure eats a lot.”
Lan Anran held up the phone for Lan Tingyun to see.
Zhao Xiumei had a smile on her face and Lan Tingyun was satisfied. He thought the two of them wouldn’t get along here, but it turned out to be harmonious.
“Tingyun, you…”
“Dad, it’s time to eat, I’m hanging up.”
Lan Anran hung up and looked at Zhao Xiumei in confusion.
“What? Grandma, do you have something to say?” Lan Anran asked.
“No, no.”
Zhao Xiumei lowered her head to eat. She was too full to squat and sleep, so she decided to walk around the courtyard.
Lan Anran followed Zhao Xiumei closely.
“Anran, what if you go to school?” Zhao Xiumei suddenly asked. She hoped that Lan Anran would leave as soon as possible. She didn’t want to see this unfilial granddaughter a minute longer!
“It’s alright, I’ll get someone to wait on you,” Lan Anran smiled and said.
She had decided to invite the caregiver home when she went to school. She had discussed this with her parents and Lan Tingyun and Li Yueru would come back to visit from time to time.
At this moment, Mo Jinrong called.
“How’s the matter with Zero?”
“Honey, don’t worry, I will find her. Just stay clean during this period.”
Lan Anran teased.
“You… I don’t have time to joke with you, find her as soon as possible. Last time, did you have a bunch of Qian Xiang? Where is it now?”
Mo Jinrong spoke urgently.
“It was accidentally picked up by me and I’ve used it to make soup.” Lan Anran lied calmly.
“What? You…”
“Can’t I? Why do you need Qian Xiang for?”
Lan Anran pretended to be curious.
“It’s nothing. I’ll give you a month. I hope you can find Zero.”
Mo Jinrong hung up after he finished speaking.
“Who is it?” Zhao Xiumei asked.
“It’s alright, Grandma, you should go back to sleep,” Lan Anran smiled and said.
Zhao Xiumei sighed and left helplessly.
After Mo Jinrong hung up, he called Mo San, who was far away in Liangxi County.
“Go get it, be careful.”
“Young Master, are you worried about me?”
Mo San smiled. It felt good to be cared for.
“I’m saying, keep Qian Xiang safe and don’t kill it. It’s very precious.”
Mo Jinrong hung up.
Knock! Knock!
There was a knock on the office door and Mo Jinrong spoke in a deep voice.
“Enter!”
The door was pushed open and a beautiful woman walked in. She wore eight centimeter high heels, a professional short skirt, and black stockings, accentuating her perfect legs. Her collar was low, and she had bright red lips, long brownish-red wavy hair, and an exquisite little face that smiled at Mo Jinrong.
She carried several documents in front of her chest and spoke softly.
“Boss Mo, I’m the little assistant Mr. Mo sent over. Since Butler Mo isn’t around, I’ll take his place.”
“Mo Changwen even told you my identity?”
Mo Jinrong spoke coldly.
“Boss Mo, don’t be so cold!”
The woman was about to approach Mo Jinrong when he stood up to open the door.
“Get out!”
“Boss Mo, I’m just a small assistant, I won’t do anything to you. Mr. Mo asked me to assist you and help you find information. You don’t have to be afraid.”
The woman smiled.
“Now I don’t need you. Please get out!”
Mo Jinrong chided.
The woman was shocked and walked out angrily.
At this moment, his phone suddenly rang. It was Mo Changwen.
“Jinrong, I saw that you didn’t have an assistant and sent her over. Didn’t you divorce Anran because of a woman? This assistant is very good and smart. You can use her first, why did you chase her out?”
Mo Changwen chided.
“Uncle, thank you, but I don’t need it!”
Mo Jinrong refused.
“You don’t need it? Jinrong, you…”
Before Mo Changwen could finish speaking, Mo Jinrong hung up.
“Damn it! Mo Jinrong, just you wait!”
Mo Changwen looked at Mo Jinrong’s office angrily.
….
At night, Lan Tingyun went home to bring medicine for Zhao Xiumei.
“These are imported special medicines. Where is your grandma?”
Lan Tingyun asked.
“Grandma is sleeping. Dad, give me the medicine, I’ll feed her later. You have no idea how much she ate today, you don’t have to worry.”
Lan Anran spoke sensibly.
Lan Tingyun nodded and handed the medicine to Lan Anran.
“Ah! Anran, did your grandma eat so well today?”
Li Yueru smiled. There was still half a chicken and some abalones in the kitchen.
“Yeah, Grandma said she wanted abalones, so I bought some,” Lan Anran smiled and said.
“Okay, then let’s make the rest of the poultry.”
Li Yueru smiled. She could save on cooking.
Lan Anran went upstairs to bring the medicine to Zhao Xiumei. She opened the bottle and saw tablets similar to vitamin C inside. Zhao Xiumei wasn’t ill and would be exposed if she took too much medicine. She decided to swap the two bottles of medicine, swapping them for vitamins to feed Zhao Xiumei.
“Grandma, it’s time to take your medicine. This is a special medicine. Let’s go down for dinner after this.”
Lan Anran woke Zhao Xiumei.
Zhao Xiumei frowned and took the medicine. Her heart was heavy and she didn’t know the medicine was vitamin.
“Anran, I don’t want to eat anymore.”
She felt wronged.
“Alright, then you can skip dinner. We’ll talk about it tomorrow.”
Lan Anran smiled and Zhao Xiumei sighed in relief.
