“Old sir, calm down your anger. Excessive anger is not good for your health.”
In the study room of the Luo family’s main building, Butler Lin was persuading.
The old man was sitting on the sofa, his face so angry that he snorted coldly: “I think he just wants to make me angry to death to feel comfortable! How long has it been since he let the Tang family’s pigeons go, and he does this again? Let’s not talk about what will happen when the rumor gets back to the Tang family, just talk about the things he has to do on his own – did he get so dizzy after spending all day in that laboratory such that he took an underage girl to stay alone in another place?”
The old man became more and more angry as he spoke, making the table tremble: “Lin Yi, tell me, do you think he just wants to make me mad to death?”
Butler Lin smiled kindly: “Old sir, please relax. Although the young master has a somewhat unruly temper, he is also sensible and principled. I think the people below made a false report, and the truth may not be what they said.”
The old man frowned, still angry, but silent.
After sitting on the sofa and thinking for a long time, he finally moved: “Lin Yi, ask someone to find out who this brat Luo Zhan has been interacting with recently.”
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, then raised his head: “Old sir, this is not good. If the young master finds out, he will definitely have to confront you again.”
“…” The old gentleman’s beard stood up in anger, “I just spoiled this kid and brought out his lawless temper!”
Butler Lin smiled and lowered his head: “I think it’s good for the young master to be like this. It’s better than being introverted and withdrawn and silent like when he was a child. But if it hadn’t been for that incident, the young master’s character would not be…”
When Butler Lin finished speaking, his smile faded and he consciously stopped speaking. He bowed and said, “Sorry, old sir, I was talking too much again.”
The old man seemed to be stunned for the next few breaths.
When Lin Yi finished speaking, his eyes woke up, he sighed and shook his hand, “Don’t mention the past anymore.”
Butler Lin hesitated and said, “I know you are afraid that the young master will think of that bad memory, but in this case, why do you still want to let the young master have contact with Tang Ran of the Tang family?”
The old man frowned: “That robot is this brat’s area of expertise…”
Butler Lin said nothing.
After being quiet for a while, the old man sighed again: “In the final analysis, Luo Zhan owes that little girl, although he doesn’t remember it himself… I asked him to help her, so it can be considered as letting him repay the debt.”
Butler Lin hesitated: “Then why not tell that girl from the Tang family the truth?”
“She is still a child after all. There is no certainty. There is no guarantee that she will not turn around and look for Luo Zhan.” The old man shook his head. “Besides, have you forgotten how I promised the Tang family when we formed an alliance so that the Tang family was willing to bring her back from the orphanage?”
Lin Yi was silent.
After a few seconds, he smiled bitterly: “That old lady Hang from the Tang family is really cruel.”
“If she wasn’t ruthless, she wouldn’t have been able to keep the Tang family stable among those jackals, tigers and leopards – but no matter how ruthless she is, we old guys would have to return to dust in a short time. After all, the young ones are going to live in this world.”
Butler Lin smiled kindly: “Old man, you may live a long life, don’t say such unlucky words.”
The old man chuckled.
After a long time ago, Mr. Luo seemed to have made some decision. He knocked on the handrail: “Go and contact the Tang family and tell them that I will bring that unscrupulous boy to visit them in three days.”
Butler Lin was surprised: “Are you going in person?”
“If I don’t go, can that brat go?”
Butler Lin hesitated for a moment and answered honestly and cautiously: “I’m worried that even if you go, the young master may not be able to go.”
“…Hmph,” the old man sneered, “It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t want to go, of course I will find a way to deal with him.”
Luo Zhan pressed the navigation button and drove into the villa area along the lake in City M.
This piece of land was a precious corner of City M. It had fresh air, a pleasant climate, and was free from the noise and pollution of the downtown business district. The families who could own villas here were either rich or noble, and the Qian family was considered one of the best.
This villa was usually vacant, and occasionally the young master of the Qian family would bring his friends here to hold a party. When they heard that the young master of the Luo family wanted to stay there tonight, the Qian family had arranged for the steward to bring several servants to the villa to clean and replace everything early in the morning.
Luo Zhan’s car stopped in front of the villa. The steward who had been waiting on the stone pavement outside the door for a long time came forward with a smile, his eyes subconsciously fixed on the petite and delicate figure in the passenger seat.
Luo Zhan frowned and slapped his right hand on the horn.
“Beep——”
The sports car’s horn was dull yet sharp, startling the steward as he quickly looked up at the driver’s seat.
Then he saw Young Master Luo’s eyes drooping, as he calmly took off his coat and put it over the head of the little girl in the passenger seat.
After doing this, he lazily opened his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, “What are you looking at?” There was a half-smile on his face, but his dark eyes were even colder.
The steward took two seconds to recover, and quickly lowered his head: “I’m sorry, Mr. Luo, I blame my eyesight for offending your female companion. Mr. Qian asked me to arrange the most dexterous and skillful servants in the master’s family for you two. Tonight if you have any instructions, just tell them—”
“No need to bother.” Luo Zhan interrupted coldly, “I don’t like having unfamiliar people around. You’d better take them all back.”
The steward was embarrassed for a moment, but looking at Luo Zhan’s cold profile, he could only respond with an embarrassed smile: “Okay, then I’ll let them go out right now.”
“…”
When the steward turned around and entered the villa along the stone road, Luo Zhan withdrew his cold gaze. He frowned, not knowing what he was thinking of, but his eyes were filled with depression.
After waking up again, Luo Zhan finally noticed something strange——
He turned sideways and looked at the little girl who was still covered by his coat. All the coldness in his eyes suddenly melted into a smile: “Did you fall asleep?”
After a second or two of silence, the little girl’s muffled voice came from under the coat: “No. Can I come out now?”
Luo Zhan suppressed his smile and leaned over to take off the coat from over the little girl, revealing her fair and slightly red face.
Her long hair was also messed up, and a few thin hairs were blown by the breath of the girl with her eyes closed and were tangled in the bright red lips that were bitten unconsciously.
Luo Zhan’s eyes darkened slightly.
A few seconds later, he leaned back in his seat and laughed hoarsely: “Why are you so good? I covered you with my coat and you didn’t even struggle.”
Tang Ran answered honestly: “You must not have covered it for no reason, so I didn’t move.”
Luo Zhan laughed: “Do you believe me so much?”
“Yes.” The girl nodded seriously, and then asked curiously: “Who was it just now? Can’t they see me?”
“…”
Luo Zhan’s smile turned cold when she mentioned this.
He raised his gaze, glanced at the villa unkindly, and after a few seconds said, “I’m afraid my grandfather already knows about the fact that I brought someone here.”
Tang Ran was slightly startled, “Why?”
Luo Zhan: “Qian Shenhao is not that clever and doesn’t know what to do. Today’s stewards and servants must have been arranged by his elders. If his elders know about it, it means that my old man knows about it.”
Tang Ran nodded, “What will happen if Grandpa Luo finds out?”
Luo Zhan thought for a while and curled his lips coldly: “There is a high chance that he will become an old puffer fish in anger.”
Tang Ran: “…”
She didn’t know if Grandpa Luo would be angry if he got to know that they were here tonight, but she knew that if Grandpa Luo heard what Luo Zhan said, he would probably be angered to death by Luo Zhan.
Luo Zhan lowered his eyes and thought for a few seconds, then raised his eyes and told Tang Ran: “When you enter the villa later, I’ll cover you with my coat. Don’t let them know who you are.”
Tang Ran asked puzzledly: “Why?”
“Because if they know, my grandfather will know.” Luo Zhan paused and narrowed his eyes slightly, “If he knows, it will be bad for you.”
Tang Ran was even more confused: “Why will it be bad?”
“…”
Luo Zhan felt so angry and funny that he couldn’t help but raise his hand and rub the girl’s long hair: “Are you going to ask a hundred thousand whys?”
Originally he was just playing around with Tang Ran, but seeing the girl’s blushing face shrinking slightly as he rubbed it, the animal gene in Luo Zhan’s heart trembled slightly.
Just rubbing your head makes you so cute and shy, if I do something else…
The increasingly dangerous thoughts were suddenly stopped by Luo Zhan.
He frowned and slapped his left hand with his right hand.
The sound of the snap was crisp and unrestrained. The back of his hand also had a cool white complexion, so within a few seconds, finger prints that turned red slowly appeared.
Tang Ran heard the voice and turned her head blankly: “What’s wrong?”
Luo Zhan looked up at her a little embarrassed – the little girl looked defenseless, with confusion written all over her delicate and beautiful face.
It was not okay for her to remain without precautions like this.
Luo Zhan thought for two seconds and thought of something. He unbuckled his seat belt and leaned over the little girl’s passenger seat.
Luo Zhan held the car door and the seat back behind her, easily blocking the little girl in the limited space.
Tang Ran was stunned.
Although she couldn’t see Luo Zhan’s posture, the pressure and the familiar faint fragrance surrounding her body still allowed her to judge the situation she was facing.
She hesitated and asked softly: “Luo Luo, what’s wrong?”
Luo Zhan: “You don’t know why being recognized is not good for you?”
Tang Ran shook her head.
“I will take you with me to live in a villa with only the two of us in the dark moon and high winds.”
Luo Zhan deliberately slowed down his voice and controlled his tone – he could not scare the little girl, but he also had to teach her some basic vigilance against the opposite sex.
Luo Zhan’s voice was low and hoarse: “What do you think will happen?”
The air was quiet and the distance was so close that they could smell each other.
The sweet fragrance and breath of the girl lingered around him, boiling into his body and blood along with his breathing, and flowing into his limbs and bones with his heartbeat.
The emotions in Luo Zhan’s eyes were almost unbearable.
Then he saw that the girl who had been thinking for a long time finally turn her head and ask softly and uncertainly:
“Are you hungry?”
Luo Zhan: “…?”
