Chapter 1811 It's hateful that Huo Yan snatched that jade pendant.

The maid came to call Zhang Ran to have dinner.

The housekeeper dared not keep Luo Laoliu waiting and hurriedly urged Zhang Ran to go to the living room for dinner.

The meal was plentiful, filling an entire square table.

Luo Laoliu looked at Zhang Ran across from him: "These are all the foods you loved to eat when you were a child. I wonder if your tastes have changed now."

“Of course things have changed.” Zhang Ran didn’t accept his kindness at all. “I now prefer seafood that’s flown in by air.”

"Okay." Luo Laoliu liked her frankness and smiled in agreement: "I'll have them cook you a seafood feast tomorrow."

"Mm." Zhang Ran picked up her chopsticks and started eating.

After the meal, Luo Laoliu personally escorted the person to the door of the room: "You can stay in this room for now." He then turned his gaze to the room next door, "I live next door. The manor is haunted, so it's best not to go out at night. If you need anything, come to the next room to find me."

"What a load of rubbish! It's clearly a warning not to even think about running away tonight," Zhang Ran thought to herself, but smiled and agreed. She went into the room, but the smile vanished instantly as she closed the door.

As usual, the entire room was checked, but no surveillance cameras were found.

The closet was full of ready-made clothes, all washed but unworn. Zhang Ran casually picked one out, checked the size, and sure enough, it was a size she could wear. She looked at the other clothes as well; it was clear this was premeditated.

Zhang Ran picked out a set of pajamas and went to the bathroom. After coming out, she turned off the light and went to bed to rest.

Luo Laoliu did not rest, but sat on the sofa in the study drinking tea, with a pile of banknotes on the coffee table.

A servant knelt at his feet and whispered, "...Later, the butler took her into the greenhouse. I didn't go in with him. It was a bit far away, and I couldn't hear what they were saying, but I saw the old butler kneel down before her."

Luo Laoliu listened quietly, then casually picked up two stacks of banknotes from the coffee table and threw them on the ground.

The maid quickly picked it up, stood up happily, and left.

In the stillness of the night, dark clouds obscured the moon.

There was a rustling sound outside the door, and then the door was opened, and a dark figure crept furtively toward the bed.

Zhang Ran, who should have been fast asleep, suddenly opened her eyes, gripped the gun in her hand, and quietly moved out of the covers.

"Young Miss?" A very soft voice sounded in the room.

"Butler?" Recognizing the butler's voice, Zhang Ran put away her pistol and made a gesture to reach for the bedside lamp.

"Are you going to turn on the light? Don't turn on the light, don't turn on the light, we'll be discovered." The butler quickly stopped him when he heard the noise. "Miss, there are some things I haven't finished saying during the day, so I can only come to see you at night when Master Huo is resting."

Seeing that he was standing still, Zhang Ran said, "Go ahead."

"The old man isn't actually sick. It was Master Huo who ordered someone to put a slow-acting poison in his food." The butler pleaded, "Only you can save the old man now. If you're unwilling, he'll just have to wait to die. But don't worry, the old man has left you a large inheritance. It's just that Master Huo is ambitious and I'm afraid it won't reach you."

“How could he do this? He’s so evil.” Zhang Ran’s voice choked with sobs as she excitedly pinched her thigh. “Tell me, what can we do to save Grandpa? I’ll do anything to save Grandpa.”

Hmm? The butler was suspicious. Was he really so easily persuaded? Things were going too smoothly, which gave him a bad feeling.

"My parents don't like me. My grandma is the only one who treats me well. My grandpa often beats and scolds me." Zhang Ran made up the lie without blinking. "Later, my grandma told me that my grandpa wasn't my biological grandfather... Before she died, my grandma gave me a jade pendant, saying that it was a gift from my grandpa. But unfortunately, Huo Yan stole it..."
