“Puff, cough, cough…”
At the silent table, Tan Yunchang choked on his ice cola because of Luo Zhan’s words, and the sound of coughing while patting his chest finally broke the silence.
The frozen people came to their senses.
After hearing the words “Call her auntie”, the two young girls couldn’t stand it at all.
“What kind of person is that?”
The one who spoke muttered something angrily, grabbed her companion and turned away.
Tan Yunchang held onto the table and coughed. Before he even stood up, he couldn’t help laughing: “She’s not a girlfriend but a daughter? You are too coquettish, hahahaha…”
“What else?” Luo Zhan leaned back in the rattan chair, his hands hanging lazily by his side. Hearing this, he just twitched his eyelids coldly, “If I say yes, should I then wait for her to report me for abducting a minor?”
Tan Yunchang: “Oh, why are you so reckless? She just wanted your WeChat ID, right? Just give it to her.”
Luo Zhan snorted: “Contact information can only be given to you if your girlfriend agrees.”
“?” Tan Yunchang was surprised, “Do you have a girlfriend?”
“No.”
“Who will agree then?”
“…from the future.”
After Luo Zhan finished speaking, he lowered his eyes lazily and looked to the side in front of him——
The little girl sitting in the rattan chair kept her head lowered from beginning to end. Her long hair hung down beside her, hiding her small face tightly. It was impossible to tell her expression or what she was thinking.
Only then did Luo Zhan notice something was wrong.
He stood up straight, and the laziness in his voice faded away: “Tang Ran?”
After two seconds of silence, the little girl raised her head and said, “Ah?” as if she had just come to her senses.
Luo Zhan breathed a sigh of relief, helpless: “What are you thinking about? Why are you so absorbed in it?”
“Nothing,” the little girl held the round bottle of banana milk and lowered her head again, “Nothing.”
“…”
Luo Zhan frowned.
He could clearly feel that the little girl was hiding something from him and didn’t want him to know.
Without waiting for Luo Zhan to ask, Tan Yunchang next to him looked at him with ill intent and said, “Sister Tang Ran, what do you think?”
Tang Ran raised her head a little late and asked blankly, “About what?”
“About what Luo Zhan said. He needs his girlfriend’s consent before he can give others his contact information.”
The little girl was silent for two seconds and nodded: “Very good.”
“What if? I mean what if.” Tan Yunchang’s expression was obviously malicious, and his voice was pretending to be serious, obviously trying to bully the little girl who couldn’t see his expressions.
Luo Zhan looked at him with cold eyes, warningly.
Tang Ran couldn’t see the eye contact between the two and asked, “What if?”
Tan Yunchang coughed and said, “If you were Luo Zhan’s girlfriend, would you agree or disagree?”
Tang Ran was stunned.
Lin Qianhua next to him finally couldn’t stand it anymore and interrupted helplessly: “Senior, please stop teasing Tang Ran.”
“Hey, Luo Zhan didn’t say anything, why are you so anxious? Besides, I’m just asking a question.”
Lin Qianhua: “This question is unnecessary.”
“Why?”
Lin Qianhua: “Since she’s his girlfriend, no one would agree to it. How can one not be jealous when another girl asks for her boyfriend’s WeChat? It doesn’t even have to happen to a boyfriend or girlfriend – as long as it’s a girl who likes Brother Zhan, she will definitely not be happy, let alone a girlfriend.”
“…”
Lin Qianhua and Tan Yunchang started discussing. No one noticed that Tang Ran, who was holding the banana milk bottle, seemed to be stunned during Lin Qianhua’s conversation.
She sat there for a long time, not moving.
Until the person behind them stopped Lin Qianhua and Tan Yunchang’s discussion.
Tan Yunchang smiled playfully: “What’s wrong, ancestor? Are you sorry?”
Luo Zhan paused for two seconds, then pulled the corner of his mouth coldly: “Have you gone wild today?”
“…” Tan Yunchang’s smile froze.
Relying on Tang Ran’s presence, he was indeed much bolder than usual today. And the look in Young Master Luo’s eyes clearly showed that he had run out of patience.
Sure enough, the next second, he heard that lazy and tired voice mixed with a cold laugh.
“Should I contact Matthew’s secretary’s office to cancel my lunch reservation for next Friday?”
Tan Yunchang’s expression suddenly twisted: “No, no, no, no, no – my idol finally made time for me! My ancestor, I was wrong, I will definitely correct it in the future!”
After saying that, Tan Yunchang raised his hand and pretended to zip up his mouth.
Luo Zhan was too lazy to argue with Tan Yunchang anymore. He lowered his eyes and noticed the little girl who had been standing in front of him for who knows how long.
After a few seconds, Luo Zhan asked, “Why don’t you drink anymore?”
“……Um.”
Tang Ran lowered her head, picked up the milk bottle, and put the straw into her mouth.
The little girl’s cheeks puffed up slightly, and she finally woke up from Lin Qianhua’s words.
She frowned slowly.
Like……
?
After this day’s trip to City M, the two cars finally returned to the main gate of the Tang family compound as the sun was setting.
Tang Luoqian was very angry. After getting out of Lin Qianhua and Tan Yunchang’s car, she didn’t look at anyone or cared about anyone. She just walked into the house with a cold face.
While Tan Yunchang and Lin Qianhua exchanged glances with each other after she got off the car.
Lin Qianhua shrugged helplessly and whispered, “Actually, Tang Luoqian is quite pretty. I think she really likes Brother Zhan.”
Tan Yunchang: “Of course she likes him. Otherwise, with her big sister’s temper, she wouldn’t have gone out with us today – in the end, she just won’t give up.”
“Brother Zhan really doesn’t show favor to girls he doesn’t like.”
“Favor?” Tan Yunchang leaned over and touched Lin Qianhua’s forehead as if he had heard a joke. “Are you confused? Are you looking for favor from Luo Zhan? Why don’t you pick peaches from the apple tree?”
Lin Qianhua choked.
He looked back at the long road behind him and saw the dark blue sports car approaching in the red afterglow of the setting sun.
The car drove very slowly, completely wasting the “speed and passion” that was hyped in the advertisements for this latest generation of supercar.
It was just because it was a chilly autumn evening, and Luo Zhan was afraid that the wind would be strong and the little girl in the convertible would be cold.
Lin Qianhua turned back: “Brother Zhan treats Tang Ran very…”
“That’s different with Tang Ran.” Tan Yunchang leaned against the car, “You just got too close to the Luo Zhan from now and got bewitched by him. Just think about it – before Tang Ran showed up, when did Luo Zhan ever look at any girl straight in the eye?”
Lin Qianhua shook his head.
Tan Yunchang snorted and laughed: “Besides, Luo Zhan’s temper is really brought out by Tang Ran. Not to mention that he was still young when he first entered K University, after the first two years, he always had the final say in the INT laboratory. When have you seen me being so relaxed with him like I am recently?”
Speaking of this, Lin Qianhua smiled and said, “You didn’t dare.”
“So.”
The dark blue sports car finally came to a slow stop. Tan Yunchang stood up and walked towards the car. When he passed by Lin Qianhua, he raised his hand and patted Lin Qianhua on the shoulder.
“This eldest lady of the Tang family should thank Tang Ran. If it weren’t for Tang Ran, with her temper, she would have suffered much more than she has today.”
Lin Qianhua hesitated: “Is it?”
“Yes.” Tan Yunchang sighed and looked back at the noble family compound, “And the Tang family… If it weren’t for Tang Ran, how could the Luo family’s young master have endured until now with his terrible temper?”
“…”
The dark blue supercar stopped and the engine turned off.
Tan Yunchang took the initiative to end the conversation, resumed his usual playful and smiling appearance, and walked to the driver’s side: “Tang Luoqian went straight in, how about we send Tang Ran directly back to the side house?”
Luo Zhan looked back at the passenger seat. The little girl, wrapped tightly in a pink blanket, was buckled in her seat belt. Upon hearing this, she raised her head in the direction of Tan Yunchang.
“Good.”
“Then…” Tan Yunchang was about to respond.
Tang Ran suddenly asked: “Is it dark now?”
“Not yet,” Tan Yunchang continued, “probably around six o’clock.”
“Manager,” Tang Ran asked again, “Is it too late for you guys to send Luo Luo over here tonight?”
Tan Yunchang was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Tang Ran was talking about the bionic robot. Tan Yunchang’s mouth twitched slightly, and he looked at Luo Zhan and signaled with his eyes: “Ancestor, can it come?”
Luo Zhan paused, turned around and asked, “Want to see ‘Luo Luo’?”
Tang Ran nodded: “Yeah.”
“He will come then.” Luo Zhan turned to Tan Yunchang, “Qianhua and I will go back to the laboratory to pick him up. You drive my car and take Tang Ran back to the side house first.”
Tan Yunchang patted the car door and smiled mischievously and with emotion: “Thank you for your hard work, ancestor.”
“It’s not hard.”
Luo Zhan unbuckled his seat belt and went towards the passenger seat. After standing there for two seconds, he couldn’t help but put his hand down and rub the girl’s long hair, with a lazy but gentle smile between his eyebrows.
“It’s what the wishing well should do.”
“…”
After watching Luo Zhan get into the car driven by Lin Qianhua and turn back to K University, Tan Yunchang sighed with emotion.
“This is twenty years of accumulated ‘favor’, all spent on one person.”
Tang Ran, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked up blankly: “What kind of favor?”
“Nothing, nothing,” Tan Yunchang laughed, “I just suddenly thought of someone. Before he met his girlfriend, he was such a tough guy… Who would have thought that he could be so good-natured.”
“Oh.”
Tang Ran was confused and couldn’t figure it out for a long time. In the end, she just nodded in agreement.
Tan Yunchang drove Tang Ran back to the side house with a guilty conscience.
After carefully helping the little girl into the side house, Tan Yunchang followed Luo Zhan’s “text message instructions” and stayed with her in the living room.
He talked on and off for a long time, but Tang Ran didn’t respond much.
Tan Yunchang held it in for a while, but couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity: “Sister Tang Ran, are you worried about something today?”
Tang Ran looked up in surprise: “Ah?”
Tan Yunchang said, “Since the amusement park, I’ve noticed that you’ve been absent-minded.”
Tang Ran was silent again.
Just when Tan Yunchang was about to give up, he suddenly heard the little girl speak in a low voice: “Manager, you say…”
When Tan Yunchang heard the serious tone, he immediately became serious and prepared to act as a caring older brother: “Well, what did I say?”
Then he saw the little girl frowning in frustration and slowly lying on the square table.
“Tell me, does Luo Zhan treat me as his daughter?”
Tan Yunchang: “……?”
