Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Bloody Setting

While Wei Ran was working out, Lin Luochen took the baby for a walk and tried to get all the information he could out of Dudu.

"... a melodramatic novel?"

Lin Luochen frowned when he heard this: "What is a melodramatic novel?"

Dudu sat in Lin's father's arms and counted on his fingers, "Baby doesn't know either."

——But it was indeed dog’s blood, that’s for sure.

Dudu has learned to enrich and strengthen his memory by expanding his associations. Since he mastered this method, he not only won't forget anymore, but every time he thinks of the puppy, he can even think of this important word, so there is no mistake.

Holding Dudu in one hand, Lin Luochen took out his mobile phone with the other hand and used the search function. He understood instantly.

A minute later he concluded, "So you're saying your dad and I are in a melodramatic novel."

Dudu tilted his head back and gently corrected his godfather, "No, we're all here."

Lin Luochen: “…”

Well, he remembered that Dudu didn't know that he was...his other father.

He had no intention of hiding this from Dudu, and there was no way he wanted to give up on Dudu. But he couldn't get past Wei Ran, and there was no way he could tell Dudu that he was her other father, unless he was truly cruel enough to hurt Wei Ran.

…

Lin Luochen was in a complicated mood.

He didn't believe everything Dudu said, but he also didn't disbelieve it.

Children have wild imaginations and may use words they heard from somewhere to make up stories.

But he has confirmed with Dudu again and again whether this is true or made up, and Dudu said it is true.

Dudu wouldn't lie, so Lin Luochen believed it.

According to the time points in the story told by Dudu, the plot should be halfway through now... Wei Ran is about to be caught up by himself.

……!

Thinking of this, Lin Luochen's soul trembled, and his hands almost shook with excitement.

But the excitement was only for a moment, and he did not become careless or complacent because of it.

Wei Ran and I were just an unimportant couple in a melodramatic novel. It wasn't even our generation that was important, but Dudu and his generation.

So, as cannon fodder, even after he chased Wei Ran back and brought her back to the Lin family, Wei Ran still did not find happiness. She still endured countless injuries from all sides and eventually died of depression...

In fact, the fact that he was not the protagonist made Lin Luochen feel very unfamiliar.

He had always been the chosen one, the one at the center. ...Except for the events involving Wei Ran, he had never once realized that he wasn't the protagonist.

But he only cared about Wei Ran. In that sense, he did feel a venomous malice coming from the Sen Sen universe.

Therefore, I am more concerned about the possibility that Wei Ran may die of depression.

...It's impossible in the end!

What's more, according to Dudu, even if he didn't get Wei Ran back, the result would be the same.

...Their world had already been reset. He and Wei Ran could easily end up with a BE ending.

Fortunately, Dudu said again, the father in this world is different.

"Why is it different?" Although Lin Luochen was anxious, he still asked patiently.

The two people, one big and one small, were chatting too seriously.

If someone heard their conversation at this time, they would probably think they were practicing their ability to construct and tell stories.

Dudu replied: "Because there is a baby!"

"...Are there no babies in other worlds?" Lin Luochen was shocked.

"No...it's just that only the babies here know what daddy should do." When he said this, Dudu puffed out his little chest, looking very proud.

Neither the father who was chased back nor the father who was not chased back would be happy. In essence, the father in the book gave up his career and was affected by other people and other things.

But Dudu’s Ranran’s father is different. He did not give up his career and made it through. Dudu can also make money to support his father. Such a father who has money and Dudu’s company will not be stupid!

Lin Luochen understood what Dudu meant.

"Then Father Lin will help Dudu and your father."

As long as he has.

...No, as long as Wei Ran and Du Du need it, anything is fine.

He didn't want to care how true this matter was, but if there was even a slight possibility that it would lead to Wei Ran becoming difficult to resolve, Lin Luochen would firmly resist it.

"Okay." Dudu was very happy that someone was willing to help his father.

The little cub doesn't ask for much, that's all.

In Lin Dad's arms, Dudu happily clapped his hands with Lin Dad.

Wei Ran had finished her workout and was still chatting with Li Xuan. Wei Ran wasn't a talkative person, but when it came to serious matters, she wouldn't be silent. It looked like the two of them were discussing a new round of fitness plans.

Lin Luochen looked at Wei Ran through the glass. His face, which looked more and more like Dudu's, was reflected on the glass. Suddenly, his heart surged. He tried to continue to ask, "Then, Dudu, do you know why your father left the other father?"

"I don't know."

Dudu thought about it, but couldn't come up with an idea. He shook his legs and replied easily.

Babies won't be too hard on themselves about things they don't know.

Dudu was only responsible for saving the father who came later. The questions asked by Mr. Lin were not within Dudu's scope of responsibility, so Dudu did not pay attention to them.

After all, if you control too much, it will exceed the baby's memory!

Dudu was very confident that he didn't know.

Lin Luochen: “…”

...Look at Dudu's intelligence and EQ and how smart he is without wasting time.

He is worthy of being his and Wei Ran’s child.

Afterwards, Lin Luochen received another call, also from his father.

"...You should know when to stop me from seeing my grandson. You took me to a hotel and locked me up the moment I landed? Are you treating your father like that or a criminal?"

Facing Lin's father's furious attitude, Lin Luochen said without any fluctuation in his tone: "Wei Ran doesn't want me, so how can you have a grandson?"

Thinking that Wei Ran might still be unhappy after being pursued by him in the future, Lin Luochen couldn't help but think that the Lin family was a dangerous place.

He would not exacerbate the conflict, but he would not ask the Lin family to interfere in matters related to Wei Ran again.

"I'm protecting you. According to Chinese law, I have nothing to do with them. Why did you go to see Dudu without permission? I'm worried that you'll be mistaken for a human trafficker and arrested."

Father Lin: "You, you!..."

When I finished the call, Wei Ran just came out of the shower.

She had changed into clean clothes and her cheeks were slightly flushed after she had just finished exercising, making her look more delicate than usual.

Wei Ran's black hair seemed to still have a trace of moisture. Lin Luochen was worried, so he pulled Wei Ran to the mirror and plugged in the hair dryer again to blow Wei Ran's hair.

Each VIP member has a hair dryer, which is usually placed in their respective cabinets.

Lin Luochen was quite satisfied with the service. At least it was clean and hygienic. Otherwise, he really wanted to build a private gym for Wei Ran.

Wei Ran was still confused when she was suddenly pulled in front of the mirror.

...A long time ago, Lin Luochen often blew his hair like this.

It seems like the other person is used to doing this, and I am also used to being taken care of by the other person in this way.

So the hair dryer had been on for a while, and the fingertips had been pressed on the scalp with a little force. It was only after a long time that Wei Ran realized that they were too close.

He looked through the mirror at Lin Luochen's lips opening and closing, and amid the buzzing noise of the hair dryer, he knew what Lin Luochen was saying to him.

But he couldn't hear clearly.

...Maybe he was talking about wanting to pursue me again. Recently, whenever Lin Luochen got close to me, he couldn't help but say this.

But when the hair dryer stopped working, he only heard Lin Luochen saying "You have to dry your hair" and "Otherwise you will have a headache."

The warm breeze lingered on the tips of my hair, along with the gentle warmth of his fingers. Just like before.

.

Wei Ran always felt that given the Lin family's style of doing things, someone should have come looking for her by now.

But the Lin family didn't arrive, but they received a call from the Cao family first - his adoptive mother, Ms. Bai, accidentally stepped on the stairs while taking care of Cao Hui's child and broke her leg. She has just been sent to the hospital.

The person who called Wei Ran was his adoptive father. Cao's father was a very successful surgeon who had not yet retired this year and was still working abroad. He couldn't make it in time, so he hoped Wei Ran could go over first and help take care of him.

"The second son, that useless one, always makes your mother angry! If something really happens, he won't be able to do anything." Father Cao said to Wei Ran on the phone:

"I've asked your eldest brother to buy the nearest flight back home, and he'll arrive tomorrow at noon. I know it's inconvenient for you, Ah Ran, but can you go see your mother first today..."

"Don't worry, uncle." Wei Ran said immediately, "I'll take care of Auntie's affairs."

Wei Ran agreed so readily, which was both expected and unexpected by Cao's father.

After a long while, the man on the other side said, "Ah Ran, it was your uncle and aunt who wronged you in the past. Now that you've met your eldest and second brothers...especially your second brother, don't bother with him. He's a debt collector and will never learn to control his mouth. If he makes you angry, just beat him up. Don't save face for us."

Wei Ran stood in front of the French window, holding up the phone, and said with a smile: "Uncle, don't be polite to me. You raised me, how can you do anything to let me down?"

"Alas." Cao's father sighed, half agreeing, half sighing, and then said, "And your eldest brother...you, after you meet..."

Wei Ran continued to smile, and her smile, reflected on the brightly polished windows, seemed too standard and brilliant.

It was a smile he never showed except when he was acting.

"Ah? What happened to Big Brother? It's true that I haven't seen Big Brother for many years, huh."

“…”

…

"Dad, are we going to see grandma?"

On the highway, Dudu was sitting in the child seat, swinging his little feet. Wei Ran sat next to him, pulled the baby's clothes and said, "Yes, grandma wants to see Dudu. Grandma accidentally fell and got hurt. Dudu, you have to stay with grandma later."

"That hurts, grandma."

Dudu's big eyes, like black grapes, were moist. Dubao didn't want the people around him to feel any pain, so he promised: "Wait a minute, baby, I will accompany grandma well~"

Lin Luochen, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, said, "The hospital has already made arrangements. The Cao family has signed, and the surgery is starting now. By the time we arrive, the surgery might have already been completed, so you don't have to worry."

"...Thank you." Wei Ran said sincerely.

Ms. Bai is in W City. Although all the Cao family members are there, as Cao's father said, none of them can be trusted.

Wei Ran didn't know anyone there, so it was almost impossible for her to help remotely.

I thought I had to wait until I got there to help Ms. Bai arrange anything, but I didn't expect Lin Luochen to volunteer and arrange everything.

"Still being polite to me?"

Lin Luochen's tone rose at first, then he slowed down his tone: "...It's nothing, it's just that they were arranged to go to the private hospital over at Lin's. The environment is better. Otherwise, it's no different from the public hospital."

"...Yeah." Wei Ran responded softly and lowered her head.

Lin Luochen felt that Wei Ran was a little absent-minded.

He had known about Wei Ran's past. Both of Wei Ran's parents were famous doctors, but during a disaster relief operation, the couple's colleague died in an accident, leaving Wei Ran an orphan. When he was nine years old.

Afterwards, he was adopted by the Cao family. Originally, it was Wei Ran's current adoptive father, Mr. Cao, who should have gone with Wei Ran's father to provide assistance. However, due to some temporary arrangements, Mr. Cao was unable to go, and Wei Ran's mother went instead. Wei Ran lost both his parents at once.

Cao's father felt very guilty about this, and after taking Wei Ran in, he always treated her as his own son.

Of course, Wei Ran's parents left him a considerable fortune, enough for him to grow up and complete all his studies.

Therefore, Wei Ran's stay at the Cao family did not bring any financial burden to the Cao family.

The Cao family was also very good to Wei Ran and did not embezzle the money. It seemed that Wei Ran had a good relationship with the Cao family.

At least that's what Wei Ran told him.

At the moment, not wanting Wei Ran to worry too much about his adoptive mother, Lin Luochen turned around to look at Wei Ran while chatting with Dudu.

Dudu, the chatterbox, can talk about anything. Under Lin Luochen's deliberate guidance, Dudu quickly forgot about his grandma's troubles, and joined in the conversation with Lin Luochen, chatting about everything from regions to food, and finally told Lin's father about the cartoons he and his father had been watching recently.

The one and a half hour drive passed quickly.

When we arrived at the hospital, Ms. Bai was still in the operating room. The high-end wards of private hospitals attach great importance to privacy. There were only a few people on the entire floor. Near the operating room, there were only two men and one woman.

Wei Ran asked Lin Luochen to help hold Dudu, and he walked over first.

Even though he was wearing a hat and a mask, Cao Hui recognized him at a glance.

"...You have lost a lot of weight." Cao Hui looked at Wei Ran and spoke first.

Wei Ran didn't say anything, just nodded casually.

He couldn't even remember how many years it had been since he last saw Cao Hui.

The last time Wei Ran saw Ms. Bai was when he flew to Canada to pick up Dudu. He was very busy at that time and only stayed at Ms. Bai's house for one night before leaving. He never met the Cao brothers.

Besides, Cao Hui has been in China for so many years. Even though they are in the same continent, they don’t need to meet frequently to keep in touch.

Wei Ran didn't really owe the Cao family anything, so he didn't have to worry about Cao Hui's affairs. Even when Cao Hui got married, he just sent a huge red envelope and didn't show up.

But Cao Hui was a person who loved to find fault and he always looked down on Wei Ran. The Cao couple taught their son not to make trouble and not to cause trouble to Wei Ran, but when he saw Wei Ran this time, he couldn't help but look at her with disdain and couldn't even say hello normally.

Wei Ran didn't speak to him, and he felt humiliated, so he snorted in frustration.

Still guarding the door of the operating room were Cao Hui's wife and father-in-law.

Wei Ran's group, including Lin Luochen's bodyguards, consisted of seven or eight adults, all of whom walked with a strong momentum.

Ordinary people usually don’t see this kind of scene, especially Wei Ran who is walking in the front. Although only her eyes are exposed, her temperament is too noble. Even if she is not a star, it is difficult to recognize her as an ordinary person.

Cao Hui and his wife both came from middle-class families and had seen the world, but this was the first time the woman had seen such a scene.

To lighten the mood, his wife asked Cao Hui, "Is this your celebrity brother?"

"Of course he is our younger brother."

Cao Hui felt Wei Ran's cold attitude, so he snorted again, and suddenly said sarcastically: "It's a good thing I have such a successful brother, otherwise my mother's surgery would not have been arranged yet."

Cao Hui's wife strongly disapproved of the way he spoke and rolled her eyes at him.

Wei Ran pretended not to hear the sarcastic tone in his voice——

"You're welcome. This is what I should do for my aunt."

Cao Hui couldn't help but tease: "...it's still more impressive to be a star. No wonder you cried and begged to learn acting."

At the back, Dudu, who was also wearing a small mask and a small hat, was being led by Lin's father and looked unhappily in the direction of Cao Hui.

When Dudu was living at his grandmother's house, he had noticed that his uncle was very mean and always said bad things about his father. Dudu knew everything.

For those who treat Dad badly, Dudu will either criticize and educate them, or ignore them if he can't educate them. He will pretend not to see anything.

Because he really didn't want to be touched by the other party, the baby, who hated evil, even stepped back a little and hid behind Lin's father's thigh.

With the atmosphere at this point, Lin Luochen could see that the second son of the Cao family was hostile to Wei Ran.

Seeing that Dudu was hiding behind him, hugging his thighs and showing no intention of coming forward to recognize him, Lin Luochen simply bent down and picked up Dudu, taking a protective posture for the baby, and strode towards Wei Ran:

"Brother Ran, why don't we go upstairs and rest first? This entire hospital belongs to us, so it doesn't matter where we wait."
