Hearing Ren Tingxi's address and words, Lan Tian instantly understood everything.
He didn't say much, so he put down the medicine box, closed the door and walked out.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the air seemed to be frozen in an instant.
Lan Tian lit a cigarette, squatted in the open space outside the door, and slowly smoked under the bright moonlight.
This father must have had mixed feelings that night.
After a long while, Ren Tingxi treated Lan Xiaolan's wound, put on his clothes, and slowly walked out.
He saw Lan Tian smoking one cigarette after another outside the door. Ren Tingxi knew that he must have a lot of questions to ask him.
After all, the woman he had just held in his arms, the one lying in the room, seemed like his daughter, whom he cherished more than his own life.
Ren Tingxi walked out of the door slowly with heavy steps. No matter what happened, he had never been so nervous as he was now.
"Dad." He walked behind Lan Tian and called out slowly.
Lan Tian stood up in astonishment and looked at Ren Tingxi's dusty face.
Although there were many things he wanted to say and many questions he wanted to ask, too many things had happened today. Lan Tian could feel how difficult it had been for Ren Tingxi from his dark eyes and brows.
"Kid, you've worked hard today."
"Haven't you eaten yet?"
"Uh-huh."
"Come inside, I'll make you a bowl of noodles."
After a while, the noodles were ready and all the ingredients in the house had been used up.
There were only two rare eggs left, and Lan Tian added them all to the bowl of noodles he made for Ren Tingxi.
"Today's food has all been used to help the people nearby. There's not much left, so you'll have to make do with what you have."
"No compromise, thank you."
Ren Tingxi ate the noodles made by Lan Tian in big mouthfuls and even choked while eating.
This bowl of noodles tastes better than all the delicacies prepared by the kitchen in Ren's villa this morning.
"Slow down, don't choke." Seeing Ren Tingxi acting like a child, Lan Tian couldn't help but smile like an old father.
After finishing a bowl of noodles, the two men sat in the living room, looking at each other.
Think about how they were chatting and drinking happily during the Mid-Autumn Festival a year ago. Compared to this situation, it really seems a bit awkward.
"When did it happen?"
"Huh?" Lan Tian's sudden words caught Ren Tingxi off guard.
"When did you get together and when did you get married?"
"That girl didn't reveal a single word before."
"Haha, Xiaolan and I were high school classmates. We studied together in Kyoto during college, but we went to different schools."
"I pursued her for a year and finally got her."
"We've been together for ten years."
"oh?"
"But later on, we had some conflicts, so we broke up."
"She hid from me and tried to keep me from finding her. But a year ago, during the Cross-River Bridge Ancient Tomb Incident, we met again."
"So, now is..."
"We got married by agreement in Country E, and we are now a legal couple."
Lan Tian was shocked. The couple met each other around the Mid-Autumn Festival last year because of work. He didn't expect that they had such a deep affection for each other.
"So, during Xiaolan's senior year, the brat who made her cry and go back to her hometown for a while was you?"
"Yeah, Dad, it's indeed me."
