Emperor Shao's exclusive sweet wife

Chapter 359 Mutual Threats

Originally, Qiao Ran was still hesitating what to do, but now that she saw the address, she didn't hesitate anymore.

She followed her heart and went out.

However, as soon as the door opened, Yang Yue was seen standing at the door.

Thinking of what Lin Lanni said that Yang Yue could not be taken with her, Qiao Ran hesitated for a moment, tried her best to look as nonchalant as possible, and asked Yang Yue, "Why are you guarding here?"

Although he has been away from the army for a long time, Yang Yue's figure is still very straight, like a tall and straight tree, and it is always like this.

He said: "It's not guarding. I wanted to go in, but I suddenly remembered that I didn't take a document."

Qiao Ran smiled, "What document? Go and get it, I'll wait for you here."

Yang Yue wasn't sure if Qiao Ran knew about Wu Shuhua, nor how much Qiao Ran knew, so he didn't move, and didn't say too much, he just said: "I'll call someone to send it over, Mr. Qiao, you Go in first."

Qiao Ran frowned.

Yang Yue's reaction was not right.

Hearing the meaning of these words, he clearly knew something.

In this case, Qiao Ran stopped beating around the bush and asked directly, "You know about my mother, right?"

Hearing that Qiao Ran was open and honest, Yang Yue also told the truth: "Mr. Chu called me and told me the whole thing before getting on the plane, and told me to take good care of you and not let you leave the company."

"Before boarding the plane?"

"Well, Mr. Chu is already on his way back, and he should be there soon."

Qiao Ran took a deep breath.

Sure enough, in fact, everyone knew about it, but they just kept it from her.

"Lin Lanni has already contacted me. If I don't go, my mother will be in danger." Qiao Ran said solemnly.

Yang Yue shook his head, "Lin Lanni wants to use you and his wife to attack Mr. Chu. If you go there, you will only become a hostage. The situation will be even more dangerous, and Mr. Chu will be even more passive."

"But……"

"Mr. Qiao, don't worry, Mr. Chu has already made arrangements." Yang Yue's eyelashes drooped, not daring to look directly into Qiao Ran's eyes.

He rarely does.

Qiao Ran felt something strange, and lowered her voice when speaking: "You...do you have something else to hide from me?"

"nothing……"

"Yang Yue!"

"It's really nothing." Yang Yue raised his head and looked at Qiao Ran again, his eyes were much firmer, "Mr. Qiao, I was hired by Mr. Chu to protect you. I am only responsible for your safety, and I don't care about anything else." .”

Qiao Ran knew that Yang Yue was a very obedient person, and his past experience made him very disciplined.

But now it's not the same thing at all.

"If I don't go, something will happen to my mother..."

"I've already said this." Yang Yue didn't repeat it, but started staring at Qiao Ran's phone, "Lin Lanni should have told you the address, right? You give me the address, and I'll send it to the second young master."

Qiao Ran put the hand holding the phone behind her back, and kept shaking her head, "No, I can't give it to you... Lin Lanni said that if someone else passes by, she will be bad for my mother..."

Yang Yue sighed softly.

His admiration for Qiao Ran has never diminished, but at this moment, he feels that Qiao Ran is concerned and confused.

"Mr. Qiao, I know you are worried about Madam, but the Second Young Master is Madam's own son, do you think he will take risks?" Yang Yue persuaded, "He will be very careful and will not let Madam have any accidents. "

"but……"

"The reason why Lin Lanni let you go alone is just to make it easier to control. At that time, you and your wife will become chips in her hands. If she controls you, it will be easier to control President Chu. If you really go by yourself , have you thought about what President Chu should do?"

Qiao Ran was dumbfounded for a moment.

The reason why she wanted to go was because of luck. She thought, since Lin Lanni let her go, then if she passed, would Lin Lanni let Wu Shuhua go?
But in fact, she knew very well in her heart that the possibility of that was extremely slim.

What is more likely is that Lin Lanni took her as a hostage like Wu Shuhua to blackmail Chu Junbei, which is not good for Chu Junbei.

And because of Wu Shuhua, she naturally couldn't let go of her hands and feet to negotiate terms with Lin Lanni.

Qiao Ran closed her eyes, raised her chin slightly, revealing a snow-white neck with smooth lines.

That's right, she can't go there... She can't send herself to Lin Lanni's hands to be manipulated by the other party, she can't be Chu Junbei's burden...

Opening her eyes again, Qiao Ran's eyes became calmer and clearer. She asked Yang Yue, "When will Junbei arrive?"

Yang Yue raised his wrist and looked at his watch, "At most half an hour."

Qiao Ran let out a long breath, handed the phone to Yang Yue, turned around and entered the office.

At the same time, Chengxi Apartment.

Wu Shuhua was tied to the chair by Lin Lanni, and Zheng Nu stared fiercely at Lin Lanni with her eyes open.

Lin Lanni was wearing a long skirt and sat with her legs crossed opposite Wu Shuhua. Her demeanor was very decent, she looked like a daughter of everyone, "Auntie, why are you looking at me like that?"

"What exactly do you want?!" Wu Shuhua asked, "Lan Ni, how can our Chu family feel sorry for you?!"

The smile on Lin Lanni's face dimmed a bit.

Where are you sorry?

Ah!Only Wu Shuhua could ask such a question, but she didn't want to answer it.

Her father could not have died, and every time Lin Lanni thought of her father's appearance when he died, Lin Lanni felt heartbroken.

She didn't want to think about it, so she didn't want to answer Wu Shuhua's question.

She lowered her head, stared at the phone in her hand and changed the subject: "I know you have always liked Qiao Ran as a daughter-in-law, why don't we take a gamble and see if Qiao Ran will come?"

She raised her head again, and showed a bright smile to Wu Shuhua, a smile like a sunflower, and said sincerely: "If you win, then I will let you go, and you can go home."

Wu Shuhua sneered, "Do you think I will believe you?"

"You should trust me." Lin Lanni said softly, "Actually, I didn't want to attack you at first. My target was Qiao Ran, but Qiao Ran was very careful, and she had a retired soldier as her side. bodyguard, I'm not fully sure."

In this case, if she did something wrong, if she made the slightest mistake, she would startle the snake.

So in the end, just to be on the safe side, she chose Wu Shuhua.

After all, Wu Shuhua has always trusted her, and has never set up defenses.

The facts were exactly as she thought. She went to Chu's house this morning and only made up a random reason. Wu Shuhua came out with her and was brought here.

Thinking of this, Lin Lanni couldn't help saying: "Auntie, you are really careless..."

Wu Shuhua turned her head away from her.

Lin Lanni also knew that Wu Shuhua must hate her now, but she didn't care, instead she continued the topic just now with great interest: "Are you betting that Qiao Ran will come or not?"

"No." Wu Shuhua said coldly.

Lin Lanni was a little surprised, "Why? You are so sure? Don't you feel chilled?"

"What's so chilling about me?" Wu Shuhua sneered, "Ran Ran has a brain, she knows that even if she comes, she will only become your hostage like me, why did she come?"

Lin Lanni shook her head disapprovingly, "No, Auntie, I just said that if you win, I will let you go."

In other words, there is no such thing as two hostages.

Wu Shuhua turned her head back, and looked at Lin Lanni with disdain, "Do you think I will believe such words?"

Lin Lanni tricked her into coming here, and took so much trouble to get Qiao Ran here, how could she let her go?Aren't you afraid that she will call the police?Aren't you afraid that they will join forces to deal with her?
After what happened today, she no longer has any trust in Lin Lanni.

Because she found that Lin Lanni had changed, very different from before.

That innocent and lovely girl has long since ceased to exist.

Wu Shuhua closed her eyes sadly.

Lin Lanni saw her reaction, Lin Lanni thought it was quite funny.

Chu Junbei took her father's life. As his mother, what position and qualifications did Wu Shuhua have to show such a compassionate expression?
What an irony!

The layout of this apartment is very simple, with only some basic furniture, and two pots of green radishes are placed casually, so it doesn't look too monotonous.

Lin Lanni stared at the two emerald green dills for an unknown amount of time, and she began to feel that something was wrong.

There was no movement, not a single movement outside the door.

She adjusted the monitor on her mobile phone and looked at it. The corridor outside the door was empty, not even a ghost.

Could it be that Wu Shuhua was right, Qiao Ran really wouldn't come?
She felt very angry, and felt that such a thing was unlikely to happen. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and called Qiao Ran.

The call was connected quickly, and Lin Lanni asked, "Qiao Ran, where have you been?"

"I'm in the office of my company. I have a meeting in 10 minutes." Qiao Ran's voice sounded calm, "Miss Lin, what do you want?"

Lin Lanni glanced at Wu Shuhua, and turned on the handset on the phone, "You really don't care about your mother-in-law's life?"

Qiao Ran seemed to laugh, and then said: "Although Junbei is abroad now, but with Junnan here, what do I have to worry about? As long as you don't starve or thirsty my mother, then it's nothing nothing."

Now Lin Lanni also laughed, and she didn't hang up the phone, she just asked Wu Shuhua, "Did you see it? This is your precious daughter-in-law, and she treats you like this."

Qiao Ran's words just now sounded a little heartless, Lin Lanni thought Wu Shuhua would be angry.

However, no, not only no, Wu Shuhua even showed an appreciative smile, and she said to Qiao Ran on the other end of the phone: "Ran Ran, you did a good job. Don't worry, I'm fine."

Qiao Ran's composure was originally faked, but now that she heard Wu Shuhua's voice, she couldn't pretend anymore, and asked quickly, "Mom, how are you?"

"I'm fine, I'm not thirsty or hungry, don't worry..."

Seeing Wu Shuhua chatting with Qiao Ran just like that, Lin Lanni turned off the speakerphone, raised the phone to her ear, and asked Qiao Ran, "Aren't you afraid of what I might do to her?"
