Douluo: Qin Shimingyue system

Chapter 335 The Ugly Duckling

"But it's too troublesome," Lin Qiao said. "My hand is disabled now, so I will definitely miss my time at work and school."

The clerk is still trying his best to sell, "Then you can take a look at our frames, including semi-wrapped, frameless, and new frames that are popular this year..."

Finally, when Lin Qiao left, he was fitted with a pair of contact lenses and a new pair of glasses.

The new glasses have gold round frames. Although Lin Qiao still wears glasses, at first glance, they are completely different.

In Zhao Feifei's words, she was an ugly duckling, but now she is a white swan.

Xia Ranran said with a smile: "The ugly duckling can turn into a white swan, not the day after tomorrow, but she was born a white swan."

These words made Lin Qiao's heart suddenly light up.

She has always been obsessed with her origins, struggling with the fact that she is alone, with no money and no power, and no one is willing to make friends with her.

She is the most inconspicuous speck of dust, the ugly duckling that is laughed at.

Xia Ranran's words finally made Lin Qiao see the shining point in herself.

Xia Ranran patted her shoulder, "I'm still waiting for you in the hospital!"

"Yeah!" Lin Qiao nodded heavily.

When she sees the light on the road ahead, she will walk towards the light and hope.

Xia Ranran drove Zhao Feifei and Lin Qiao back to the dormitory first. In the car, she waved to them: "I won't go back to the dormitory. I will go directly to the hospital tomorrow."

"Have you gone home to have your husband and children have a hot bed?" Zhao Feifei winked at her jokingly.

Xia Ranran didn't argue with her, "Go back."

She started the car and drove slowly on the road.

Time is not tight, she can go back slowly and leisurely.

There was something going on at school today, so Xia Ranran asked Fang Songqi to help pick up the two little guys.

When Xia Ranran turned from an intersection, she realized something was wrong.

There is not a single car on this road.

Even at this time, the traffic volume on this road is relatively small, but it is not as empty as a car.

Xia Ranran couldn't help but speed up the car and stepped on the accelerator.

But the more she tried to drive faster and off the road, the more things happened.

Suddenly, at the corner of the intersection ahead, a car came across and blocked Xia Ranran's path.

Xia Ranran's nerves were tense and she stepped on the brakes.

That car was a black stretched Lincoln, priced at more than 500 million.

The car door opened, and several people in black clothes got out of the car. The leader was a middle-aged man who looked capable, although his hair was already a little gray.

He walked straight down Xia Ranran.

Xia Ranran calmed down and took out her cell phone, wanting to call the police.

The other party smiled and buttoned Xia Ranran's car window.

Xia Ranran pressed the shortcut alarm call button on her phone with one hand and lowered the car window a crack.

"Hello, Miss Xia Ranran."

This man knows his name.

"Don't be nervous. We just want to invite you to our home. My master wants to see you."

Xia Ranran asked in a calm tone: "May I ask who your master is..."

"Mr. Huo."

…………

At this time, on the other side of the ocean.

Huo Jingshen is located next to the floor-to-ceiling glass window on the upper floor of the hotel, overlooking the lights of thousands of houses.

Even though they are in a foreign country, with different skin colors and different races, the warmth of home brought by this light is the same.

It's been three days, and Xia Ranran hasn't even called him.

He restrained himself several times and did not take the initiative to call Xia Ranran. He just wanted to wait for her to come to him for help and to talk to him.

But none.

Moreover, in the news he specially asked Lu Bei to bring back, he said that Xia Ranran was living a very good life now, and her time was fully scheduled every day without being affected.

What does this mean?

Even without him, Xia Ranran can handle it well by herself.

Huo Jingshen walked back and forth three times in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and finally stopped.

He picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table and dialed Xia Ranran's number.

I've never had this sense of urgency to get the other person to pick up the phone.

But the more urgent he became, the more no one answered the phone.

Until finally, the phone calls stopped.

Huo Jingshen's eyes flashed with astonishment.

Actually... didn't answer his call?

Even if you don't call him, you won't answer the calls he made?

Huo Jingshen held the phone and called again.

Still no one answered.

He closed his eyes and thought to himself that he should go to the bathroom to take a bath or put the two children to sleep and wait another 10 minutes.

10 minutes later……

Just wait another 10 minutes.

When Xia Ranran finished her work and looked at her phone, she would definitely call him back when she saw his number.

However, after waiting for 10 minutes, he finally looked at his phone and saw that there was still no call from anyone, so he dialed another one.

Eventually, patience ran out.

He dialed another number.

Lu Beigang lay down on the bed.

It's really comfortable.

After a busy day, the most peaceful and relaxing time is to lie in bed, play games with friends on your phone, and then fall asleep happily.

He plugged in his earphones, and just as the team was successfully formed, the call came in.

He watched Huo Jingshen's number pop up on the screen in surprise, his expression a little indescribable for a moment.

He got on the phone.

"Mr. Huo."

"Book the latest flight back home tonight."

Lu Bei: "...now?"

"Yes, contact the backup car and get ready to go to the airport."

Lu Bei: "...Yes."

He hung up the phone and looked at the time.

It's already ten o'clock.

He raised his hand to cover his forehead and said to his friend, "I'm going to get off first. There's something urgent here."

Teammate: "What's the emergency? If you are offline like this, you will be reported and banned!"

"Being fired by my boss or banned from the game, I choose the latter."

"..."

Gay friends all know the job that Lu Bei does.

Although the salary is high, the pressure is high, and he is always on call. No wonder Lu Bei is still single. What girlfriend would endure the alone time between the two of them at night, and then leave alone with just a call from the boss? Woolen cloth?

Lu Bei couldn't hear his gay friend's inner complaints, he had already started spinning.

He yawned.

Catch up on your sleep on the plane.

…………

Xia Ranran was invited into the extended Lincoln by someone sent by Mr. Huo. As for the car she was driving, another person was asked to take over and drive it first.

The middle-aged man at the head smiled with a gentle expression on his face.

"Miss Xia, I am the housekeeper of the Huo family. My surname is Luo."

"Steward Luo," Xia Ranran pursed her lips and thought for a moment before asking her cautiously, "I wonder why Mr. Huo came to me?"
