old love revisited

Chapter 21: Nostalgia (3)
Guan Hao was picking up the work card that Qu Ranran put on the bed at the moment. He obviously had just entered the door, and he didn't think there was anyone in the room for a moment, so he picked up the ID card on the bed to look.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Guan Hao turned his gaze away.

Without warning, the two looked at each other.

Seemingly surprised, Guan Hao narrowed his dark eyes and frowned slightly.

Qu Ranran looked a little embarrassed at the moment...

Wearing cheap pajamas, her hair was wet and a little messy, and most importantly, the two buttons on her pajamas were not fastened just now because she was absent-minded, revealing a faint scar on her chest at this moment.

Guan Hao's eyes turned to Qu Ranran's chest at this moment, obviously noticing the scar on Qu Ranran's chest that had turned white.

It wasn't until she noticed that Guan Hao was staring at her chest at the moment that Qu Ranran came back to her senses, and tightly grasped the material of the chest with her hands.

"you……"

A little embarrassed, at this moment, she didn't know what to say to him, so she turned sideways, buttoned her pajamas, and at the same time pulled her wet hair behind her head.

But when she turned around again, she found that Guan Hao had already turned and left.

Seeing his leaving back, her throat suddenly choked up, and her eyes felt slightly burning. She then looked out the window and forced herself to smile lightly.

Not knowing if the hotel made a mistake, or if it was a coincidence, Qu Ranran decided to ask the hotel manager.

When Qu Ranran picked up the phone and was about to call the hotel manager, a voice came——

"Hello."

Qu Ranran turned around and looked at the middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes who looked like a hotel manager.

Sure enough, the man said, "I'm the manager of this hotel, miss, I'm sorry, can you show me your room card?"

Qu Ranran nodded in a daze, and then handed the room card to the person in front of him who claimed to be the hotel manager.

The manager glanced at Qu Ranran's room card, and then said apologetically, "Sorry, may I have your name?"

"My surname is Qu."

"Miss Qu, I'm sorry, I checked the records, and the secretary of Mr. Guan has already reserved room 1806 before yesterday, and your room is downstairs in room 1606. I think it was our counter lady who took it. Wrong, sorry for the inconvenience caused."

Qu Ranran did not expect the situation in front of her at all, "Uh..."

"Miss Qu, if you want, we can help you change to Room 1606, but if you are not satisfied with the result, we will refund all your rent due to our fault."

"There's no need to change the room!" Almost without any hesitation, Qu Ranran escaped slowly, "Check out the room for me, I won't be staying here tonight."

"Okay, Miss Qu, change your clothes, I'll wait for you at the door."

……

After checking out of the room, Qu Ranran dragged a heavy suitcase through the hall.

She wanted to leave the hotel quickly, but she accidentally caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye.

He was standing in front of the huge French windows of the hotel, with one hand in his trouser pocket and the other hand on the phone. Under the light, his handsome face exuded a pampering tenderness, and he was talking on the phone.

Instead of guessing who he was calling, she stopped noticing him, straightened her body, and left the hotel faster.

Outside the hotel, the cold wind blew by at night, but Qu Ranran continued to stand by the roadside waiting for a taxi as if she didn't feel anything.

It was hard to wait for a taxi, but suddenly, a dazzling blue Ferrari stopped beside Qu Ranran.

Thinking it was someone she didn't know, Qu Ranran didn't pay attention, but the next second, Li Renjun got out of the car.

"Boss Li?"

Holding the suitcase, Qu Ranran was a little surprised.

Li Renjun came to Qu Ranran and asked in a gentle tone, "Where is the second brother?"

"Huh?" Qu Ranran naturally didn't understand the title.

Li Renjun made it clearer, "My second brother is your ex-husband Guan Hao."

Unexpectedly, Li Renjun and Guan Hao had such an intimate relationship, and Qu Ranran was slightly surprised.

Seeing the expression on Qu Ranran's face, Li Renjun immediately explained succinctly, "My eldest brother and my second brother met in the mall, and because we got along well, we called them brothers. Although I don't know you, I don't know you. I know that my second brother was married to you for two years."

Since it is a fact that already exists, Qu Ranran has no need to escape, and simply spit out generously, "He is inside."

At this moment, Li Renjun was not in a hurry to find Guan Hao, but said casually, "Actually, I'm also here tonight to find you."

"Huh?" Qu Ranran was suddenly puzzled.

Li Renjun stared at Qu Ranran's slightly gray face, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry."

"what?"

"Actually, I knew that my second brother would stay here tonight, so I arranged for you to enter my second brother's room."

One of Guan Hao's construction projects in City G is near this airport, so Guan Hao will stay in this hotel in the next few days.

Qu Ranran, who originally thought she was being teased by God, widened her eyes and said in disbelief, "Why did you do this?"

"Because, I want to know if my second brother still cares about you."

Qu Ranran shook her head, expressing her incomprehension.

Li Renjun explained slowly, "Do you know my second sister-in-law?"

Second sister-in-law?

If the second elder brother refers to Guan Hao, then the "second sister-in-law" that Li Renjun is referring to at the moment is obviously Guan Hao's wife.

That's right, four years have passed, and it's time for that beautiful woman named "Zi Xin" to marry him.

Li Renjun looked at the subtle expression on Qu Ranran's face, and slowly spit out, "From your reaction, it can be seen that even if you don't know my second sister-in-law, you know my second sister-in-law."

Qu Ranran did not speak, expressing her acquiescence.

Li Renjun said truthfully, "My second sister-in-law doesn't want you to appear in my second brother's world again."

"It seems that I was transferred from City G also because of your second sister-in-law."

"You are very smart." At this moment, Li Renjun's appreciation for Qu Ranran took a step further.

"Mr. Li, you also saw it tonight. I think you can tell your second sister-in-law now that her worries are unnecessary."

"is it?"

No one expected that at this time, a cold female voice suddenly broke into the conversation between the two.

The two turned their faces at the same time, and in their sights, Qin Zixin's graceful and agile figure was slowly walking towards them.

Li Renjun was a little surprised, "Second sister-in-law?"

Qu Ranran and Qin Zixin looked at each other, and they seemed to know who they were without saying a word.

Qin Zixin looked at Qu Ranran, and said gracefully, "Ren Jun, while Miss Qu still has plenty of time to go to the airport, I want to talk to Miss Qu alone."

"Second sister-in-law..."

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to her."

While hesitating, Li Renjun got into his car, but did not leave, but drove the car a little further.

Looking at each other, Qin Zixin was the first to break the silence.

"I think we should get to know each other better."

Qu Ranran didn't speak, but tightly held the suitcase at hand.

In the next second, Qin Zixin stretched out his hand, "Qin Zixin."

Qu Ranran looked at Qin Zixin's extended hand, but did not shake it with her.

Qin Zixin withdrew her hand without embarrassment, looked deeply at Qu Ranran's delicate face, and sighed, "No wonder Hao has been able to get along with you for two years, you really look like me..."

Sensing Qin Zixin's unfriendly words, Qu Ranran raised her eyes again, looked at Qin Zixin lightly, and said calmly, "Miss Qin, I don't think I have anything to say to you, sorry."

With that said, Qu Ranran pulled the suitcase and walked straight away.

Qin Zixin didn't stop her, but said to Qu Ranran's leaving back, "Do you know why we look so alike?"

Qu Ranran's footsteps froze.

Qin Zixin spit out slowly, "Because you and I are half-sisters, we both look like our father."

Qu Ranran turned around abruptly, her eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.

Seeing Qu Ranran's suddenly pale face, Qin Zixin continued, "I know you may not believe me when I say this, but it's true..."

Qu Ranran immediately shook her head and denied, "Impossible, my father only has one daughter, and he never told me that he has other children."

"Of course he won't tell you, just like he never told you about him and Li Zhaojun."

"you……"

"That's right, I am the daughter of Qu Yaoting and Li Zhaojun, because my mother fostered me with a good sister of hers since I was a child, so I have always followed her good sister's surname Qin."

Thinking of the photo of her father and Li Zhaojun found in her father's study many years ago, Qu Ranran couldn't deny the relationship between her father and Li Zhaojun at this moment, but if Qin Zixin is Li Zhaojun's daughter, then...

At this moment, Qu Ranran suddenly looked up at Qin Zixin, because she suddenly remembered that the victim who sued her father four years ago was Li Zhaojun's daughter.

"That's right, I was the one who sued Qu Yaoting four years ago, and I was the one who wanted the Qu family to lose everything at all costs."

Qu Ranran saw the almost painful hatred in Qin Zixin's eyes, she softened her tone, and said truthfully, "Although I have never wanted to believe that Daddy would be a heartless person, I am willing to listen to you." Tell me the whole story."
