The relationship between the head of the Lan family and his parents is now ordinary, and can even be said to be a little cold, but after all, they are his biological children, so the head of the Lan family will not make things too awkward with his parents.
But there was no guarantee that the increasingly confused couple would cause trouble.
Su Su smiled and said, "No, it's my father-in-law who is going to retire."
Cheng Lingling: "... looks like my old man."
As soon as she finished her apprenticeship, her master couldn't wait to retire, letting her earn money to support the family while he lived a carefree life.
Whenever she complained, the old man told her that if she was envious, jealous, and resentful, she should quickly find a man to marry and have a child to be the successor. Once the successor was trained, she could retire.
Therefore, after she chose Long Ting as her apprentice, she hoped that Long Ting would grow up quickly.
Unfortunately, when I see other people taking care of their children, the children grow up very quickly, but my own child still looks so small.
Fortunately, she has two, one is an apprentice and the other is her own child. When the time comes, the two children will share her burden, and the children will be more relaxed. They don’t have to bear all the pressure on her like she does.
Who says she is the apprentice and the old man is the master?
The two chatted for a while. Cheng Lingling looked at the time and said, "Susu, I'll go prepare the hot pot ingredients."
"I'll help you."
Cheng Lingling made a sound at Lan Zheng, meaning that she wanted Susu to take Lan Zheng for a walk.
Su Su smiled and said, "We plan to stay at your place for a few days, there's no rush."
It’s not too late to visit slowly after satisfying your hunger first.
Since she said so, Lingling was no longer polite and took Susu to the kitchen.
The kitchen was a little far from the living room. After making sure Lan Zheng couldn't hear, Cheng Lingling smiled and said, "Susu, only you can stand Lan Zheng. I don't know what his mouth was made for. He hasn't spoken since he came here. If you didn't know him long ago, you would have thought he was mute after hearing him speak."
"When you two were doing that, would he be so aloof? Would you be able to handle it?"
Su Su blushed, but said generously: "He is aloof in front of others, but very gentle and warm in front of me."
Especially when doing that, he was so passionate, like a hungry wolf.
It must be that she has a good physique, otherwise she would have to lie down for a whole day after being tormented by him.
"He doesn't talk much to women other than his family. This isn't the first time you've met him, so just treat him as a background figure. Don't take him seriously."
Cheng Lingling smiled and said, "You two really complement each other."
One is as cold as ice, the other is as gentle as water yet passionate.
"Have you taken him to see them?"
She was referring to the big bosses in the underworld of the same generation as the miracle doctor.
"I've seen it all. It's only when I come to your place that everything goes smoothly. When I go to their place, it's either a drinking contest to test his drinking capacity or a sparring match with him. Fortunately, he is the young master of the Lan family, otherwise he would have to be hospitalized every time he meets them."
The uncles and aunts of the Yin generation are all powerful masters.
Their generation is also a master. The older generation will not take action themselves, but they let their most proud and best disciples fight with Lan Zheng to test Lan Zheng's skills.
"I sympathize with Young Master Lan for ten seconds."
"Haha, my master doesn't know how much he likes him, even more than me."
Cheng Lingling opened the refrigerator and took out some of the ingredients. She said, "That's normal. People of their generation were almost all single. After experiencing loneliness, they hoped that our generation wouldn't follow in their footsteps. You're the first girl of our generation to get married. It would be strange if your master wasn't excited."
"I think he's so nice to Master Lan because he's afraid he'll return the goods."
Su Su chided her, "Tell me about you, are you and Jun Qin planning to stay like this for the rest of your lives? He hasn't given up looking for you yet."
"I think this is good. We don't bother each other. If he can't find her after two years, he'll give up. Then he'll meet a good girl, get married, and have kids."
Cheng Lingling didn't know that Jun Qin was on his way.
"You just said no to such an excellent man. I hope you won't regret it later."
Xu Susu sighed, wondering how many women were looking forward to marrying into the Jun family. Cheng Lingling had plenty of opportunities, but she gave up easily.
"Why should I regret it? I'm not in love with him. I was extra tolerant of him when I lived in his house. I just felt sorry for him, not love."
Cheng Lingling, who has seen life and death, is not someone who is easily moved.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so calm when Jun Qin was looking for her.
She didn't let Jun Qin know that she was pregnant, and she ran away before her belly got big.
She didn't even attend the wedding of her apprentice's godparents.
Xu Susu watched her preparing the ingredients and suddenly asked, "Lingling, are you pregnant?"
Cheng Lingling turned her head to look at her and said with a smile: "Didn't I gain weight?"
When she said that, Susu had the answer. Susu's eyes widened. "When you left City A in such a hurry, did you find out you were pregnant? You've been pregnant for more than three months, right?"
The calculation time is about three to four months.
"Fourteen weeks."
Su Su: "...you, I don't even know what to say to you. If the Fourth Young Master Jun knew about this, he would stop doing anything and would search the world to find you."
Cheng Lingling said nonchalantly, "As long as you don't betray me, he won't be able to find me."
"I can support the child myself, and we don't have a romantic relationship, so he doesn't have to take responsibility. I didn't let him know because I didn't want to affect his life. I wanted him to marry the woman he loves. What happened between him and me was just an accident."
"But Young Master Jun doesn't have a favorite woman, right? He slept with you, and I think he wouldn't start dating other women before he found you. He's afraid that if you show up one day, he won't know what to do with you."
Xu Susu knew the temperament of the men in the Jun family very well.
"So he said that after he couldn't find me after two years of searching, he would give up and start a new life, forgetting me, a mere passing figure in his life. He wouldn't have any impression of me, and even if we met again in the future, as long as I didn't commit suicide, he wouldn't know."
"As for our child, if the child looks a lot like him, I won't let them meet. If the child looks a lot like me, we can meet, but I won't let the child know that he is his biological father."
"Lingling, I think you're being too selfish. You haven't considered the child at all. If you want the child to be born into this world, you have to let the child know who his biological father is, and you actually want them to meet without knowing each other."
After a moment of silence, Cheng Lingling said, "Then, let's not meet anyone."
She never saw Jun Qin again, nor did she take her children to see Jun Qin.
"I think you should reconsider. Love isn't scary, and neither is marriage. The Jun family has a good tradition, and you know Jun Qin well. Could it be that you think he's not good enough for you?"
