On the way to Bai Gongli's old house, Qi Si received a call from his subordinates.

"Master, Miss Bai is here."

So, it was just as expected.

Fu Hanchuan frowned and nodded, "Let her go in first."

"Yes."

After Bai Gongli passed away, the Bai family decided to sell the old house.

After getting the news, Fu Hanchuan bought this place.

When I bought it, I thought that in the future, when Bai Ran missed his grandfather, he could come back to visit him anytime.

Moreover, this is where Bai Ran grew up and has her childhood memories.

Bai Ran is not very old, and he has even fewer happy times.

After her parents divorced, they left her to Bai Gongli. The years she spent with her grandfather were the only times she was loved by her elders.

Later, she followed Jiang Xuexin to Mingzhou. Even though her stepfather was a local tycoon, she was still living under someone else's roof.

Therefore, that year, she followed Si Zhengze back to her hometown without hesitation.

But who would have expected to meet Fu Hanchuan...

From then on, I fell into a nightmare that lasted for many years!

She is so young, but she always suffers, whether it is family or love.

slowly.

Fu Hanchuan supported his forehead with one hand, silently repeating her name, his heart aching.

...

At the entrance of the Bai family’s old house.

Bai Ran stood there, looking at the yard inside through the closed door.

The yard was well maintained, as if someone lived there.

But grandpa has passed away.

Who could be living in there?

Would it be inappropriate for her to disturb him rashly?

"Miss Bai."

Behind her, someone was walking towards her.

"?" Bai Ran was stunned, his face showing panic.

"Miss Bai, don't be afraid."

The person stopped a few steps away from her and did not come forward. "We are Mr. Fu's people."

Pointing to the gate, he said, "We are here to open the door for you."

As he spoke, he raised the key in his hand.

"Oh." Bai Ran nodded and turned aside, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

The man stepped forward, opened the gate, and walked in. "Miss Bai, please come in."

"it is good."

Bai Ran slowed down and followed the man.

The man explained as he walked, "After Mr. Bai passed away, Mr. Fu bought this place and hired someone to clean it regularly."

Open the door to the entrance.

Let Bai Ran in, "Miss Bai, please."

"Thank you."

After expressing his thanks, Bai Ran stepped inside.

Sure enough, just as this person said, the inside was cleaned very cleanly and you couldn't tell that no one lived there.

"Miss Bai, we are right outside. If you need us, please call us."

After the man finished speaking, he walked out.

Bai Ran stood alone in the living room, looking around.

Slowly, he walked towards the huge painting hanging on the wall in the living room facing the sofa.

The ink-and-wash landscape painting is the work of Bai Gongli.

Bai Gongli was a contemporary master of Chinese painting. After his death, his paintings became priceless.

When Fu Hanchuan bought the house, he also bought all the remaining works in the old house.

Bai Ran raised his hand and stroked the lower left corner, where Bai Gongli's signature and seal appeared.

Even though she knew about her grandfather from Xiangsi, her memory was still blank.

But at this moment, tears fell like rain.

"Grandpa...Grandpa."

Choking with sobs, he said, "Ran Ran, I'm back... I'm back."

...

Half an hour later, Fu Hanchuan arrived.

"Sir." The guard immediately opened the gate and said, "Miss Bai is inside."

"Ah."

Fu Hanchuan nodded and walked in quickly.

The living room was empty and quiet, and Bai Ran was nowhere to be seen.

Then, Fu Hanchuan turned around and walked upstairs.

The door to Bai Ran's room was open and she was inside.

Bai Ran stood in front of the bookcase, looking through her old books, including her school textbooks and various extracurricular books.

"slowly."

Fu Hanchuan stood at the door and raised his hand to knock on it.

"?"

Hearing the voice, Bai Ran raised his head and was not surprised to see him, "You are here."

"Ah."

Fu Hanchuan's throat was sticky, and when he saw her red and swollen eyes, it was obvious that she had been crying hard.

He walked up to her in two or three steps, raised his hand, and stroked her hair, but he didn't know what to say.

"When I was a kid."

Bai Ran spoke first, smiling with red eyes, "I grew up here."

"Yes."

Fu Hanchuan nodded, "Grandpa loves you very much. To him, you are his only granddaughter."

"Hmm?" Bai Ran was stunned, then sighed, "But, I'm not filial."

"none of your business."

Fu Hanchuan frowned and put his arm around her shoulders.

"I know you've met Yao Leyi... But don't listen to her nonsense! Everything has nothing to do with you!"

"is it?"

"Yes."

"Then..." Bai Ran's crimson lips opened and closed blankly.

"Hmm?" Fu Hanchuan was puzzled. "What do you want to say?"

"Nothing..." Bai Ran shook his head, "Nothing."

"slowly."

Fu Hanchuan was very worried about her condition and coaxed her in a low voice.

"I know you are sad, but all the misfortunes are in the past. Let's move on and look forward, okay?"

He put his arm around her shoulders and walked out.

"This place is for you. You can come anytime you want. But don't cry anymore."

Bend down and wipe her tears.

"not good for health."

Then he asked her, "Are you hungry?"

It's already afternoon, and she must have been traveling all the way and hasn't eaten yet.

"Go get something to eat, huh?"

The body that you have taken good care of cannot be wasted in any way.

"No..." Bai Ran frowned and shook his head in resistance, "I don't want to leave."

"That……"

Fu Hanchuan had no choice but to take a step back. "I'll have someone send it here? You can't do this without eating."

Bai Ran really had no appetite, but he still agreed.

Nodding, "Okay."

"Wash your face?"

Fu Hanchuan stopped her and walked to the bathroom. "Your eyes are a little swollen. Apply an ice pack."

Busy running around, taking care of things.

While Bai Ran was applying an ice pack, the meal was delivered.

"Help yourself." Fu Hanchuan stood up, "I'll set the table."

Although there were bodyguards guarding outside, there were only the two of them inside.

At this time, he didn't want outsiders to disturb him.

Fu Hanchuan went to get the meal, put it on the counter, and opened the box.

At this moment, Bai Ran took out the ice pack and walked towards him.

"I'll help too."

"No need." Fu Hanchuan frowned, "Don't get your hands dirty, just apply it to your eyes."

"never mind."

Bai Ran shook his head, "It's already healed."

Roll up your sleeves and insist on helping.

Fu Hanchuan looked at her and thought she looked like a child who was about to play house.

He curled his lips, "Then go get the dishes and chopsticks."

He raised his hand and pointed, "In the cabinet over there."

"it is good."

Bai Ran agreed and turned to get it.

When I opened the cabinet, what I saw at first was not the dishes and chopsticks, but the...

knife.

Standing there, shining brightly.

Fu Hanchuan said it was none of her business.

So, what about him?

Is it none of his business?

[You should hate him! Don’t you hate him? ]

[Before the accident, didn't you hate him very much? ]

[It wasn't me who hurt you, it was Fu Hanchuan! ]

[Are you stupid? ]
