Chapter 395 - Where Did the Bracelet Go?
Chapter 395 Where Did the Bracelet Go?
Lan Anran hurried home, but it was rush hour and there was a slight traffic jam.
She looked at her watch. Normally, she would be home in about 20 minutes, but with the traffic jam, it would be considered good if she could be home in half an hour.
But she had to get there before Mo Jinrong did.
Lan Anran couldn’t wait any longer. She had to get out of the taxi and call Skinny. She remembered he had a motorcycle over there that could move faster than a car.
Three minutes after the call was made, Skinny appeared in front of her on a motorcycle.
“Boss, should I take you?”
Skinny took off his helmet and smiled.
“Come down, I’ll go alone. I can’t let Mo Jinrong arrive before me.” Lan Anran took the helmet and wore it on her head. She straddled the motorcycle with her long legs, turned the handlebars, and left.
Skinny stood alone, his mouth open in shock.
“When did Boss learn to ride a motorcycle? She’s too valiant.”
Lan Anran rode the motorcycle smoothly through the streets. When she touched a traffic light, she stopped and turned to look around. Coincidentally, Mo Jinrong and Mo San were waiting in the car beside her.
She was calm and collected, as though nothing had happened. She waited for the green light to turn green and immediately ditched Mo Jinrong to head home. Five minutes later, she arrived home on a motorcycle. She placed the motorcycle in the alley and quickly walked in to change her clothes, pretending to be making medicine.
Mo Jinrong happened to arrive at the Lan Family house.
“Young Master! Young Madam seems to be brewing medicine inside. Did you make a mistake?”
Mo San couldn’t believe his eyes.
If it really was her, how could she have gotten home before him so quickly? Unless she had speedy legs.
Mo Jinrong didn’t speak and strode in. “Jinrong? Why are you here?”
Lan Tingyun was a little surprised. After all, he hadn’t been here in a long time.
“Father-in-law, I’m here to see you. I heard that you were discharged from the hospital after recovering from your illness. I have been busy with work and couldn’t come to see you.”
Mo Jinrong found an excuse, his eyes constantly glancing at Lan Anran.
“I’m feeling better. Anran is making medicine for me in the kitchen, I’ll call her over.”
Although Lan Tingyun was discharged from the hospital, he still needed some time to recuperate. The hospital’s matters were left to Li Yueru, so he had a rare moment of leisure.
Of course, Lan Anran heard Mo Jinrong’s voice from inside, but she pretended not to know and didn’t come out to welcome him.
“Anran, Jinrong is here. Leave the medicine here and let me take care of it. You can talk to Jinrong. You haven’t talked together in a long time, right? You can’t neglect him after you’re married.”
Lan Tingyun had always thought that Lan Anran hadn’t seen Mo Jinrong in a long time, so he allowed her to talk to him.
Lan Anran was naturally very well-behaved. She put down the work in her hand and pretended to be very happy.
“What are you doing here? I heard that Zero treated you well today?” Lan Anran asked deliberately.
“It went smoothly. I remember everything, but there is something I don’t quite understand.”
Mo Jinrong frowned.
“What is it?”
Lan Anran listened carefully.
“It’s nothing, I’m just curious about Zero. Is she mute? She doesn’t speak every time. How did you contact her? Can you introduce her to me? I want to hire her as my private doctor.”
Mo Jinrong smiled.
A trace of surprise flashed in Lan Anran’s eyes before she smiled.
“Zero probably won’t be willing to be your private doctor. I only found her on the dark web. I don’t know the details, why are you so curious about her?” Lan Anran asked deliberately.
“Nothing, I just find her too mysterious. People are always curious about mysterious things, aren’t they?”
Mo Jinrong glanced at her wrist as he spoke.
“Why didn’t you wear the bracelet I gave you?” Mo Jinrong asked deliberately. Lan Anran couldn’t tell him that the bracelet was missing, so she smiled at Mo Jinrong.
“It’s our love token. I couldn’t bear to bring it with me, so I put it away.”
“Really?”
Mo Jinrong’s smile was horrifying. He didn’t want anyone around him to hide anything from him, especially her. Mo San winked at her from behind, hinting that Mo Jinrong had noticed and advised her to tell the truth. But Lan Anran didn’t seem to understand and just stood there smiling foolishly.
“Go get it now, I want to see you show me.”
Mo Jinrong spoke deliberately.
He just wanted to force her to admit it and see what else she had to say.
Lan Anran was stunned. Wasn’t the bracelet in his hand right now?
He was asking the obvious, trying to force her to obey.
“Let me be honest with you, I lost the bracelet a few days ago. I didn’t mean for it to happen, I just wanted to take it off and after I put it down it had disappeared. Don’t worry, I will definitely find it.”
Lan Anran apologized.
“You lost it by accident? Are you sure it happened a few days ago?” Mo Jinrong looked into her eyes and asked.
“Jinrong, don’t be like this, you are scaring me. I really didn’t lose it on purpose. A few days ago, I was eating outside and accidentally left it in the washroom. I’ve informed the restaurant to monitor the situation. A woman in black saw my bracelet while washing her hands and took it. I will definitely find it.”
Lan Anran wanted to clear her name from Zero.
But Mo Jinrong was still skeptical.
“Which restaurant? I have connections with all the restaurants in Rong City. I can check the surveillance cameras and call the police. Tell me, which restaurant is it?”
Lan Anran casually mentioned a small restaurant.
“Don’t go to that restaurant. It’s very small and I saw the surveillance camera yesterday. It broke and the contents weren’t preserved. It’s my fault for failing to protect the bracelet.” When she said these words, her face wasn’t flushed and her heart wasn’t beating fast. Mo Jinrong couldn’t tell whether she was telling the truth or not.
“Then why was this bracelet on the floor of my treatment room?”
Mo Jinrong took out the bracelet and placed it in front of her.
Lan Anran was startled.
The bracelet was indeed with him.
“Strange, why do you have this bracelet? Did Zero steal my bracelet?”
Lan Anran made a bold guess.
She could only accuse Zero now.
“Zero would steal your bracelet? You mean, it just so happened that Zero was eating with you in a restaurant and you happened to meet in the washroom. In the end, you forgot to check the table and she took your bracelet? Do you think such a coincidence exists in the world?
Or do you take me for a fool? This isn’t an idol drama.”
Mo Jinrong never believed in such coincidences.
“You don’t suspect me of being Zero, do you? You are mistaken. I only know how to use herbs, nothing special. Don’t think too highly of me,” Lan Anran smiled and said.
