<h4>Chapter 78 - Be Careful III</h4>


    What can Jiang Run say? Moreover, she could see remorse and helplessness in Zhan An''s eyes. She knew that Zhan An also doted on her goddaughter, she pursed her lips and said, "Why would I mind? You.."


    Originally … "A family."


    Cui Liuxian suddenly smiled at her., "Sister Lan, I will probably bother you more in the future."


    "Huh, what do you mean by disturbing?" Jiang Run felt that her (Cui Liuxian) acting skills were very good. Although she and Xian Zihao had no rtionship, how can she not see Cui Liuxian''s clear motives?


    Jiang Run did not know whether she should like her or she should recognize her position in this family. She retreated to her bedroom to made room for the three of them to spend their time together.


    "Wait." Xian Zihao suddenly called out to her.


    Jiang Run turned and saw him walking towards her. Xian Zihao suddenly raised his hand and ced it on her forehead. "Didn''t you say you weren''t feeling well when you were on the road? Looks like you have a fever. Hurry up and take medicine." As he spoke to her, he ced his arm around her waist and pushed her stiff body towards the master bedroom.


    Jiang Run stared at his face, which was as beautiful as nature, with suspicion in her eyes. Xian Zihao brought her into the room and pushed her out of sight. Then he put his hand down and started rummaging through the drawers.


    "What are you doing?" she whispered in confusion.


    He simply turned his head to the side and nced at her without saying a word.


    Jiang Run came to a realization. Did he do all this to made Cui Liuxian retreat? He clearly said that this marriage was just to shut the people''s mouth and had nothing to do with love, but even so, he still respected this marriage. At the very least, wouldn''t it make things difficult if there was a third party between them?


    She quietly watched him close the drawer. She felt a bit funny, but at the same time, she felt touched.


    Was Xian Zihao defending her?


    Even if he was being kind to her, she had truly epted his kindness in her heart.


    Jiang Run smiled at him from the bottom of her heart.


    Xian Zihao closed the drawer again and turned to look at her casually. "The Old Master affirmed the marriage between Cui Liuxian and me. You must be prepared when we go to Xian Mansion this weekend."


    Jiang Run nodded. "I know."


    His calm gaze lingered on her face, then he walked out.


    "Run has a fever? Is it serious? Does she need to go to the hospital?" Zhan An''s concerned voice came from the living room.


    "It''s not a serious fever, just let her rest early today." Xian Zihao said indifferently, as he looked at Cui Liuxian, "How''s grandpa''s health?"


    Cui Liuxian had been standing there in a daze the entire time. When she heard Xian Zihao talk to her, she immediately raised her head and a sweet smile quickly appeared in her seemingly well-trained eyes. "Grandpa''s body is fine, but he really missed you. Zihao, are you going back at the Mid-Autumn Festival this weekend?"


    Seeing him nod, Cui Liuxian immediately became happy. "Really? Then I must tell grandpa about this good news sooner!"


    "Mm, tell the old man that Run wille with me too. We will both spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together."


    The smile in Cui Liuxian''s eyes disappeared in the blink of an eye. She looked at Xian Zihao in shock, but when she saw his calm expression, she couldn''t help but uttered a low "oh".


    "It''s a littlete. You better go back. Since the old man likes you, then don''t stay outside too long and go home earlier." Xian Zihao said softly.


    "I want to stay here with mom for a few more days." Cui Liuxian approached the silent Zhan An. She seemed to have found the strongest reason to used and was brimming with smiles.


    "This child …" Zhan An smiled. She understood that this was not a good idea, but when she saw her (Cui Liuxian) pained smile, she didn''t have the heart to refuse her.


    Zhan An nced at Xian Zihao and saw he was still calm. "Zihao, didn''t Run just arrive at H City recently? She definitely doesn''t have many friends here. Liuxian is the same age as her, so maybe they will be a good friend once they get to know each other."


    Xian Zihao immediately wanted to object, but Cui Liuxian cut him and hurriedly said, "That''s right. Sister Lan is so easygoing. We will definitely get along well!"


    Jiang Run who was in the bedroom shivered for no reason.


    Good friend?


    Why she felt that it was like the scene of the first wife and concubine being in the same room, outside they enjoying time together but inside, they wanted to stab each other.


    Since Zhan An had already spoken, Xian Zihao naturally couldn''t say anything more. He nodded and climbed the stairs to the study room to handle some official matters.


    "Mom, tomorrow, I will go with you for skin treatment!" Seeing Xian Zihao go upstairs, Cui Liuxian did not cling to him. Instead, she turned to the only person in the family who loved her and said with a smile. "You haven''t been back in a long time. I know there is a very good spa in the city!"


    "Child, only you can make your godmother happy and know what she likes!" Zhan An smiled lovingly.


    "Of course, I''ve always been by your side since I was little. I always pay attention to what you like, and I also want to spend my whole life with Zihao to filial piety!"


    Zhan An was overjoyed. "Oh, your little mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter!"


    As the two of them chatted, Jiang Run could no longer sit still in the master bedroom. She wanted to take a shower and sleep. As she came out of the bedroom, she saw Cui Liuxian and Zhan Anughing merrily like a mother and daughter.


    "Run, is your body unwell?" Zhan An asked anxiously when she saw hering out of the bedroom.


    "It''s nothing, I just caught a small cold." Jiang Run smiled. Then, she smiled at Cui Liuxian, who behaved in a very proper manner.


    "You have to take good care of yourself. Since you have just taken medicine, you should rest early."


    "I will sleep after the shower. Mom, quickly adjust your time difference. Otherwise, sleepingte like this will not be good for your body too."


    "I know. Quickly take a shower. It''s not good to take a showerte at night. If your cold still doesn''t go down, I will ask Zihao to find an extra nket and take it to the roomter."


    "Ugh, no! There''s no need …" Jiang Run immediately lowered her head, smiling shyly as she walked towards the bathroom.


    Once the bathroom door was closed, the noise outside could no longer be clearly heard.


    ****


    Two hourster --


    In the study room on the second floor.


    While Xian Zihao was checking some documents that had been sent by the Bureau of Lands, his mobile phone suddenly rang.


    He looked at the caller and casually answered it but before he could say anything, a soft and cautious voice came from the other side, "Zihao, can you not be so distant to me?"


    He sighed. "Marriage is not child''s y, Liuxian."


    "But I know you don''t love her! I know you very well. You never knew her and I also know you never came back here after you got married. You don''t like her at all, so why must you treat me like this?! Can''t you treat me like you did before?"


    "Don''t always rely on the past. You''re the same as Guiying. Of course, there will be love and concern."


    "But you treated Jiang Run so well. I know she wasn''t sick at all. Both of you were just using this reason to avoid me!"


    "It''s good that you understand." Xian Zihao did not borate further. His eyes were still focused on theputer screen, and tapped on the mouse button.


    "Grandpa will not agree. You knew better what will happen if you bring her home! She will not be epted! Grandpa and dad don''t like her! Why do you still want to make them angry!"


    Xian Zihao eyebrows gradually closed.


    He did not reply to her question. He was looking at the document on the screen intensely.


    Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and his expression turned cold.


    The Bureau of Land Control actually dared to y a word game with him! They wanted to use this as an excuse! He put the phone on his neck, tilted his head and held the phone.


    On the other side, Cui Liuxian heard the sound of the keyboard, and she finally choked with sobs. "Zihao.."


    "All right, rest early." Without waiting for her to respond, he suddenly hung up the phone and red at the documents on the screen. Then, his hand returned to the keyboard.
