    Tugging at the Heart:The Shy Master Qiao

    Three million in exchange for the rebirth of an orphanage, plus a life, was enough for Jiang Xiying. The cold, unemotional king of commerce, who had stolen a child with impure motives, but who had played a good hand, who had been a pair of twins, and had left behind a daughter, who had been biased? "I heard that he was defeated by a woman?" When he heard this, Qiao Zhe narrowed his eyes and threatened him: "Mrs. Qiao is on the bus and won't be able to get a ticket. I heard that she was having a baby with another man, so she used the same trick again and wants me to take over?"

    After chasing Jiang Xiying out of the house, Mu Rann went straight back to her room. He needed some time to calm down and did not want to deal with the trivial matters of the family. For the time being, he let his mother, Lau Yanhong, do whatever she wanted.

    Lau Yanhong's goal was finally achieved. Seeing that her own child supported her actions, she was secretly delighted.

    However, Jiang Xiying, who had been chased out of the house, was very sad. She did not expect Mu Rann to become like this. She was completely different from the Mu Rann who had sweet-talked her.

    She regretted that she had chosen the wrong person, but she was also worried about Jiang Rann. After all, he was her own flesh and blood, born after ten months of pregnancy.

    She stood guard at the door. The night was getting darker and darker, and the silence around her was very similar to the pale moonlight. At this moment, Jiang Xiying was lonely and helpless.

    Before she knew it, the night had passed. Jiang Xiying hid in a corner and stayed there all night.

    The next day, when Lau Yanhong went out and saw Jiang Xiying, she scolded again, "It was Mu Rann's idea to chase you away. Get lost before he comes out."

    This time, after Jiang Xiying left, she really did leave.

    As she walked along the empty streets, her heart felt empty.

    Jiang Xiying's departure was definitely not a compromise with Lau Yanhong because she knew that no matter how Lau Yanhong treated her, she would not hurt Jiang Rann. After all, Lau Yanhong thought that Jiang Rann was her own flesh and blood.

    Lau Yanhong had also said that this time, it was Mu Rann who chased her away. For Jiang Rann's sake, she had to endure it. She was worried that if she resisted, it would be detrimental to Jiang Rann.

    So Jiang Xiying, who had been keeping watch all night, was a little tired. She went to a restaurant for breakfast, cleaned herself up in the bathroom, tidied up her clothes, and tried her best to return to her working state, afraid that others would see that she was in a sorry state yesterday.

    When Jiang Xiying arrived at the newspaper office, she received Han Yuzhu's "kind greetings" as usual.

    "Aiyo, isn't this Little Jiang? Have you recovered from your illness? Have you eaten anything good to replenish your body recently? Don't tire yourself out again. As the Little Boss of the newspaper, I can't afford it." Jiang Xiying was already used to Han Yuzhu's sarcastic remarks.

    Right now, she had no intention of complaining about this noble young lady. All she wanted to do was quietly finish what she was doing and go back to deal with her own family matters.

    Unexpectedly, Han Yuzhu never let anyone down when it came to making things difficult for others. She gave Jiang Xiying some news stories and told her to work overtime to write a script for tomorrow's report.

    Jiang Xiying spent most of the day writing. She did not even have time to eat lunch. After much difficulty, she finally managed to send the finished manuscript to Han Yuzhu. However, Han Yuzhu found the manuscript insufficient and typed it back to rewrite.

    Jiang Xiying could do nothing about it because Han Yuzhu gave her very little related news. Even during her absence, she did not know how these things were progressing. It would be difficult to write a script with just these few photos, but she could only silently persevere.

    Finally, after Jiang Xiying revised her script again and again, Han Yuzhu let her go. In fact, Jiang Xiying had been used to being submissive these past few days. She was already immune to Han Yuzhu's ugly face.

    Jiang Xiying had a cup of coffee first, and then she rested for a while before getting ready to get off work. However, yesterday, Jiang Xiying had no home. Whether it was for Jiang Rann's sake or for her own dignity, she could not go back this time.

    It was getting late at night. Jiang Xiying had no idea where to go, so she decided to find a hotel to stay in for the time being. There happened to be a big hotel near the company. After checking in, she swiped her card and found that she had left in a hurry yesterday. She didn't have her card bag and didn't have much cash on her. She asked the lobby manager at the front desk, "Hello, can I have the cheapest ordinary room here? I forgot my bank card."

    The lobby manager looked at her purse and her appearance, decided that she couldn't afford such a nice place, and said, "Excuse me, ma'am, but you can't afford the cheapest room we have here."

    These words made Jiang Xiying very angry. At the same time, she did not intend to stay here any longer. However, she did not have much money left on her. If she really stayed in a hotel, she was afraid that she would not have enough money to eat. Therefore, she rented a basement on the internet. The environment was very simple and crude. The walls were covered with moss, the table was shabby, and the mattress was hard. Thinking about it carefully, Jiang Xiying was afraid that she had never suffered like this in her life.

    After putting down her bag, she tidied up the house. It was already late at night, and after a busy day, she was finally able to lie down on the bed and rest. However, she couldn't help but worry about Jiang Rann. This cute child, who was only in the first grade, was like a little adult. He would bring water and medicine to the sick Jiang Xiying, and even helped Jiang Xiying when she was cooking. He would never cause trouble like other children of the same age...

    As she thought about it, Jiang Xiying fell asleep.

    At this very moment, Jiang Xiying was looking at the cold and deserted house. A faint light shone through a small ventilated window on the basement wall. She missed Jiang Rann, missed his smile, missed the obedient and considerate look he would reveal from time to time when they were together in the past.

    She wanted to call him, but when she thought of Lau Yanhong... Now that Lau Yanhong and Mu Rann had chased her out of the house, if she called back...

    Hesitating, the broom in her hand tightening and unclenching, her thoughtful face biting her lower lip, her fine eyebrows pressed together in a small "mountain" on her forehead. Should she call back?

    I don't know what Rann is doing now. Did he miss me? 'Did he do his homework?' 'What did he eat for dinner? ' After spending so much time together, Jiang Rann had long since become an indispensable part of her life. Not only was he her family, but he was also her flesh and blood!

    Finally, Jiang Xiying, who couldn't hold back her longing for Jiang Rann, stopped thinking about it and decided to call the house.

    Rann was still studying at school. He was still young and was afraid that he would play too much and not study properly, so he did not have his own phone yet. "Call the landline at home. I hope Lau Yanhong won't be the one to answer the phone." Jiang Xiying said as if she was talking to herself.

    After that, she put down the broom in her hand and patted the dust off her hands. Then, she took out her phone from her pocket and skillfully pressed the keyboard to make the call.

    "I hope Lau Yanhong didn't answer the phone," Jiang Xiying muttered a prayer.

    She couldn't help biting her lower lip again, her pink lips bitten by her neat white teeth, her eyelids lowered as if she were staring at something on the floor, her brow slightly furrowed, her head cocked to one side as she listened to the phone.

    Finally, the phone was connected. "It seems like there's someone at home. I wonder if Rann will answer the phone?"

    "Hello, who is this?"

    When Jiang Xiying heard this voice, she hung up the phone without thinking. Oh my god, it was Lau Yanhong who answered the phone. If she found out that I was the one who called, she would probably scold me like a shrew again.

    Well, it seemed that Rann wasn't home. Forget it, I'll clean the house first. It's so dirty here, how can I sleep at night?

    "Gugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugug

    The next day, Jiang Xiying couldn't help but call again.

    "Hello, hello." Jiang Rann, who was watching TV, casually picked up the phone that was ringing beside him.

    He heard a familiar and gentle voice. It was Rann. Great, he was home! Jiang Xiying let out a long sigh of relief, but she couldn't suppress her excitement. She was so excited that she had to control her voice and ask, "Rann, is your grandmother home?"
