After exiting the back door of the Tang Family compound, Luo Zhan took off his baseball cap that was hiding his appearance and threw it beside his seat. He then took out his cell phone and called Tan Yunchang.
“You will see Tang Ran getting out of Lan Jingqian’s car later. Don’t say a word, just get in the car and go back to school.”
Tan Yunchang digested the thought for several seconds: “Lan Jingqian – my idol?”
“Um.”
“Why would he——”
Luo Zhan interrupted coldly: “I have more questions than you now, and I am in a worse mood than you. Are you sure you want to ask me now?”
Tan Yunchang swallowed back the words with difficulty.
Luo Zhan leaned back in his seat and squinted his eyes. After a while, he suddenly said, “After this call, you should immediately find Qi Jin to check something.”
“What’s up?”
“…”
After Luo Zhan and Tan Yunchang finished their phone call, the car remained silent for a while.
Then Lin Qianhua finally came back to his senses from the shock, turned his head and looked at Luo Zhan in astonishment: “Brother Zhan, you don’t think–“
“I don’t think anything, I just have doubts.” Luo Zhan raised his eyelids lazily and paused, “Drive and watch the road, I don’t want to die in your hands.”
“Oh oh.” Lin Qianhua quickly turned back.
But recalling what Luo Zhan had just said to Tan Yunchang, he was still a little uneasy: “But your suspicion is a little too bold.”
“Is that so?”
Luo Zhan turned his face away.
Looking at the black semi-convertible car outside the front window driving in front of the loader, Luo Zhan slowly lowered his gaze.
The black convertible was naturally much faster than the loader and stopped at the avenue two minutes earlier.
In the initial silence, Tang Ran tensed for a while, but still couldn’t help turning to the driver’s seat and asking softly: “Uncle driver, do you not like Luo Zhan?”
“…”
Lan Jingqian was called back from his disordered thoughts by Tang Ran’s words.
After thinking for two seconds, he said, “I know this young master of the Luo family, and I admire him very much. But… it’s hard for me to accept him appearing next to you like this.”
Tang Ran hesitated and asked, “Why?”
Lan Jingqian sighed and said, “He is the most favored young master of the Luo family. He is also blessed in other aspects. He has thus developed a rebellious character who doesn’t care about anyone. That is his pride and his capital. Such young people are sought after wherever they go. If Xiao Ran likes him, I will be very worried.”
“…”
The girl in the passenger seat was silent for a long time, then slowly lowered her head: “Does the driver uncle also think that I am not qualified to stand with Luo Zhan?”
“Of course not!” Lan Jingqian rejected it without even thinking, “Xiao Ran deserves to be loved by the best boy in the world.”
Tang Ran gently grasped the seat belt and whispered, “To me, Luo Luo is the best person in the world.”
Lan Jingqian’s eyes flickered.
After a moment, he sighed silently: “Is he good to our Xiao Ran?”
Tang Ran nodded vigorously.
After pausing for a few seconds, as if feeling that this was not enough, Tang Ran spoke again.
“Luo Luo is the best person to me. He acted very fierce and cold at first, but that was just an act. He would come back to me when it rained, give me his coat, and accompany me on a bus he had never taken before. When I was lost, he would look for me in the heavy rain, and he was the only one who remembered me when I didn’t eat. I was afraid so when he wanted to hide away, he even pretended to be his brother in front of me – he is obviously a very proud person, and that must have been the last thing he wanted to do, but he did a lot of things like that for me.”
After Tang Ran finished speaking, the car was silent for a long time.
After waiting for a while, the little girl suddenly realized what was happening. So, she blushed and lowered her head: “Did I say too much?”
Lan Jingqian slowly came back to his senses and smiled helplessly: “Indeed, there are quite a few. It seems that you remember everything about him very clearly.”
“…” The little girl’s face turned even redder. But she still nodded seriously and honestly, “Because Luo Luo is very good. He is worth remembering.”
“But if he’s so good to you, I’d be worried too.”
“?” Tang Ran looked up blankly.
Lan Jingqian was silent for a few seconds, then raised his hand and gently touched the girl’s head: “Xiao Ran, there is a truth in this world that except for your parents, no one will treat you well for no reason.”
Tang Ran didn’t understand clearly and tilted her head in confusion.
Lan Jingqian withdrew his hand and looked at the car gradually approaching in the rearview mirror, the look in his eyes becoming more complicated.
“There are only two possibilities for someone who is not your relative but treats you well, going against his nature for you. Either because he feels guilty, or because he has an agenda. Which one is he… or both?”
“…”
Tan Yunchang and Lin Qianhua left in the loader.
There was only a dark blue supercar and a dark black semi-convertible sedan left on the avenue.
Before Tang Ran changed from Lan Jingqian’s car to Luo Zhan’s car, she received a call from Yang Yilan, the grandmother who had taken care of her before.
The little girl was obviously very happy and a little impatient. So, she picked up her cell phone and hid behind Luo Zhan’s car to answer the call.
Luo Zhan was originally leaning against the front of the car, waiting lazily with his long legs stretched out.
Until his own phone suddenly vibrated.
After reading the message at a glance, Luo Zhan slowly narrowed his eyes. After a few seconds, he stood up, jumped off the car, and walked straight to the black car parked in front.
As Luo Zhan approached, Lan Jingqian’s attention, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, quickly shifted from the figure of the little girl in the rearview mirror to Luo Zhan himself.
He unbuckled his seat belt, turned half sideways, and watched Luo Zhan walk to his car.
Lan Jingqian raised his eyes calmly: “Is there anything wrong, Young Master Luo?”
Luo Zhan held the door of the black car and leaned down slightly: “I do have a question I want to confirm with you, Mr. Lan.”
Lan Jingqian had no expression on his face: “I can’t bear to be called Mr. by the Young Master.”
“Then change it to whatever Mr. Lan likes. Oh, I’ve got an idea.”
“?” The inexplicable and erratic tone made Lan Jingqian frown and look up at Luo Zhan.
Luo Zhan lowered his dark eyes and smiled suddenly.
“Maybe, I should call you this in advance… Dad?”
