Tang Ran did not hear the conversation at the entrance of the villa, so she naturally had no idea how Qian Shenhao’s soul was shocked and “cleansed” by the conversation that night.
Luo Zhan sent away Qian Shenhao, who was doubting his life, while the food from the private kitchen and new nightgowns brought by the Qian family’s steward arrived one after another.
After the two had dinner, Luo Zhan sent Tang Ran back to her room to rest.
The next morning, in accordance with the agreement with the private eye hospital opened by Jia Junxi, Luo Zhan drove Tang Ran to the hospital, received the complete examination report, and then followed the nurse’s guidance to find Jia Junxi’s office.
Jia Junxi now had his own hospital and rarely attended medical appointments. Without a special personal relationship, it would be impossible to find him, let alone ask him to come out for medical treatment.
Luo Zhan made a special call to him the night before to confirm again the time for today’s consultation, so the two of them arrived outside Jia Junxi’s office on time in the morning.
His office was on the top floor of a separate office building in this private hospital, and there was a special reception desk outside the elevator.
After the person in charge at the front desk asked about the reservation status of the two people, she called Jia Junxi’s office to inquire. After receiving a positive reply, she put down the phone and looked at Luo Zhan and Tang Ran.
“Both of you, please go straight this way and turn right. The room at the end of the corridor on the left is our dean’s office.”
Luo Zhan nodded, “I understand, thank you.”
“Oh, that’s right.” The receptionist looked at the young man with a celebrity face in front of her. After calling him, she saw the pair of dark eyes turning to look at her. She felt embarrassed and then said: “Dean Jia Junxi’s temper is more…serious, remember to knock on the door before you go in.”
“Well, thank you.”
Luo Zhan thanked her and helped Tang Ran go inside.
After turning into the long corridor on the right that the person in charge on the front desk had said, Tang Ran estimated the distance based on the number of steps and determined that their conversation should no longer be heard from the front desk.
Then she raised her head slightly, chuckled and said, “Sure enough, the store manager was right.”
Luo Zhan raised his eyelids and asked, “What did he say?”
Tang Ran: “He said that Luo Luo is very popular outside, especially among people who don’t know you.”
“Um?”
Tang Ran chuckled: “Because they are not familiar with your temperament, personality and family background, they will show kindness to you without any scruples.”
“What else did he say?”
“And he said…”
Tang Ran’s eyes narrowed, and her tone deliberately imitated Tan Yunchang’s, trying hard to soften her soft voice: “Our ancestor, he is a man who can make a living with his family background, his face, his figure, and his mind.”
Luo Zhan paused.
Tang Ran noticed it and raised her head blankly, “What’s wrong, Luo Luo?”
Luo Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked down at her: “What did you just call me?”
“Luo Luo.”
“The previous sentence.”
“Ah…that’s what the store manager calls you. He seems to have always called you that.”
Luo Zhan: “They can call you that, but you can’t.”
Tang Ran was even more confused: “Why?”
Luo Zhan was silent for a few seconds, frowned and whispered: “The age difference between brother and sister is already far enough, what kind of address is ancestor spanning across generations?”
“Okay.” Although Tang Ran still couldn’t understand this person’s brain circuit, she still nodded in good faith, “Since Luo Luo doesn’t like it, I won’t call him that in the future.”
The “ancestor” who was four years older felt a little relieved.
Approaching the door of Jia Junxi’s office, Luo Zhan remembered something and warned her vigilantly: “Remember to listen less to Tan Yunchang in the future.”
Tang Ran was startled: “The store manager often praises you in front of me.”
“Praise like that just now?” Luo Zhan sneered, “He must have said bad things about me in front of you while I couldn’t hear him.”
“How can that be considered bad things?” Tang Ran corrected seriously, “That means Luo Luo is very good-looking.”
“How good-looking?”
“…Huh?” Tang Ran said hesitantly, “The most good-looking one, right?”
Luo Zhan was angry and funny: “The most good-looking one? Isn’t your little childhood sweetheart the most beautiful boy you have ever seen?”
Tang Ran was confused by the question.
It took two or three seconds for her to come back to her senses and blush: “Why did the store manager even repeat this to you?”
“…”
Now it was Luo Zhan’s turn, who was so jealous that he almost forgot to wear a vest to feel guilty.
He turned away and coughed: “The doctor’s office is here, let’s go in.”
“Good.”
Luo Zhan knocked on the door. After a few seconds of pause, a voice came from the door: “Come in.”
Luo Zhan then opened the door and led Tang Ran in.
The office had a south-facing floor-to-ceiling window, and the bright sunshine in the middle of the morning shone through the windowpane with the curtains closed, and it was shining freely into the room, making it feel warm.
The desk was in the northwest corner. Sitting behind the table, a man in his thirties or forties looked up.
“Luo Zhan?”
“Dean, good morning.” Luo Zhan vaguely noticed something and frowned slightly.
But he quickly calmed down and said, “I have contacted you several times before, and I have roughly mentioned the condition of my friend’s eyes to you. This is why I came here today.”
“I know,” Jia Junxi pointed to the sofa on the north wall opposite the desk, “You guys can sit there first. I still have a paper to read here.”
“Good.”
Luo Zhan responded casually and didn’t seem to be dissatisfied at all because of this “snub”.
He led the quiet little girl beside him to the sofa slowly, and then helped her sit down.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the sound of the wheels of the swivel chair rolling on the ground finally came from the desk. When Luo Zhan heard this, his movements stopped.
A few seconds later, the man in a white coat walked to the sofa and sat down opposite the two of them.
“Is this the little girl’s inspection report?” Jia Junxi picked up the materials on the table that Luo Zhan had prepared in advance in a kraft paper bag. He didn’t open it in a hurry but first weighed it in his hands.
“Yes,” Luo Zhan said, “All the items that have been inspected in your hospital since yesterday and the corresponding report sheets are included. In addition, there is also some basic information about her.”
The man opened the seal, poured out some of the ingredients inside, and glanced at it briefly, “Well, you’re pretty prepared -“
His words stopped abruptly.
Luo Zhan waited for two seconds and looked at the other party, only to see that the ophthalmologist, who had not looked at them since they came in, was looking at Tang Ran next to him with some surprise in his eyes.
“Dean,” Luo Zhan frowned, noticing something was wrong, “What’s wrong?”
Jia Junxi did not respond to Luo Zhan’s words, but quickly lowered his head, poured out the materials again and scanned the patient’s name column.
“Tang Ran.” He repeated in a low voice, “The surname is Tang… What is her relationship with Tang Shixin?”
Luo Zhan’s eyes were slightly cold, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and his smile became lazy: “Who is Tang Shixin? What does the dean mean by mentioning a stranger for no reason?”
“You are the young master of the Luo family. Don’t you know who Tang Shixin is?” Jia Junxi looked at him.
Luo Zhan didn’t seem surprised, “You know me. But Matthew probably didn’t tell you.”
“Of course I know you.” Jia Junxi hesitated, “Forget it, we’ll talk about this later – tell me first, what is her relationship with Tang Shixin?”
“…”
Luo Zhan said nothing and looked at Jia Junxi calmly, trying to judge the tendency of this question from the other person’s emotions.
Jia Junxi also noticed it. He sneered and put the document bag back on the table. “Think clearly, even if a guardian is not required to accompany her during the current consultation stage, her guardian must sign for later surgical treatment – you can’t hide it from me.”
Luo Zhan was silent.
In fact, he didn’t deny it because he thought about it. But it seemed that he shouldn’t admit it. After all, this man’s reaction when mentioning Tang Shixin was not very kind.
While Luo Zhan was thinking silently, the girl next to him suddenly spoke softly: “I am his daughter.”
“Daughter?” Jia Junxi snorted, “She is indeed a child of the Tang family.”
Tang Ran asked: “Do you know him?”
