Chapter 48 Stepmother? (Alliance Leader Adds More)
"I never take back anything I give away. If I don't want it anymore, I just delete it and throw it away." An Jing said while driving without looking back.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wen put the USB flash drive back into his pocket. A USB flash drive was not worth much, so there was no need to return it to An Jing. Although he didn't know whether the Sun Shooting Technique inside was true or not, just like An Jing said, he could just delete it.
There was no conversation along the way, and An Jing soon drove Zhou Wen to a place.
Originally, Zhou Wen thought that Li Xuan was very rich just because he lived in a villa, but after seeing this place, Zhou Wen realized what a real rich person was. This place was like a park.
An Jing drove the car in. In the exquisite and elegant garden, there were many buildings with very modern styles, but they were perfectly integrated with the surrounding gardens, and were staggered and well-arranged. It was obvious that they were carefully designed by famous architects.
An Jing stopped the car in front of a three-story building and took Zhou Wen into the building through the main entrance.
As soon as I walked into the hall, I saw a mature and elegant woman sitting on the sofa with Zhou Lingfeng.
Zhou Wen looked at the woman and saw that she was very similar to the photo sent by Zhou Lingfeng. She should be Ouyang Lan, but the real person was more beautiful and more elegant than the photo. She looked to be about thirty years old.
"Hello, Auntie." Zhou Wen took the initiative to greet her. Firstly, he didn't want to embarrass Zhou Lingfeng, and secondly, he wanted to show that he had no intention of recognizing Ouyang Lan as his mother.
"Xiao Wen is here. He's much more handsome in person than in the photo, but he doesn't look very well. I just made some ginseng soup. You can drink some to replenish your energy later." Ouyang Lan stood up, took Zhou Wen's hand, and pulled him to sit on the sofa.
"Thank you, Auntie." Although Zhou Wen's emotional intelligence was not high, he would not be stupid enough to refuse Ouyang Lan's kindness. As long as he could save face, it would be fine. He just wanted to finish the meal smoothly, and then go back to play games and try to see if he could kill the silver-winged flying ant.
Ouyang Lan was obviously a person with high emotional intelligence. Even though it was the first time they met, Zhou Wen did not feel any sense of distance from her. She seemed to be as friendly as an acquaintance he had known for a long time.
Originally, Zhou Wen thought that Zhou Lingfeng was a very eloquent person, but when he was with Ouyang Lan, Zhou Lingfeng seemed a little dull, which surprised Zhou Wen.
"These are fresh persimmons that have just been delivered. Xiaojing, you like persimmons the most. Try them first. They are very sweet." Ouyang Lan seemed to feel that Anjing was neglected, so he personally picked up a translucent red and very tempting persimmon and gave it to Anjing.
An Jing took the persimmon, peeled it and took a bite. It was indeed very sweet.
"Come on, have another one." Seeing An Jing finished eating, Ouyang Lan took another one and gave it to An Jing.
An Jing took the persimmon and deliberately glanced at Zhou Wen. Although she didn't say anything, Zhou Wen understood what she meant.
"A biological mother is a biological mother." An Jing seemed to be saying this, because Ouyang Lan did not give the persimmons to Zhou Wen beside her.
Zhou Wen didn't care. Ouyang Lan was An Jing's biological mother, so it was normal for her to love An Jing. There was no need for him to be jealous. Besides, he had never wanted to integrate into this family, so there was naturally no reason for him to care.
"Madam, the meal is ready." While Ouyang Lan was chatting with Zhou Wen, a man who looked like a housekeeper came over and said.
"You've been waiting for so long, you must be hungry. Eat more later." Ouyang Lan pulled Zhou Wen to the restaurant and asked him to sit next to her. Instead, An Jing had to sit at a farther position.
Zhou Wen saw the dishes on the table, which were delicious and had a lot of flavors. He had never seen many of them before, but there was a big lobster among them, which Zhou Wen recognized at a glance.
Since the dimensional storm, basically most of the sea areas have become other-dimensional areas, and the creatures in them have undergone mutations. Now it is much more difficult to eat seafood than before.
Zhou Wen had only seen lobsters in history books, biology books, and online. He had never seen one in person, let alone eaten one. Especially in an inland area like Guide Prefecture, it was almost impossible to eat seafood, let alone a lobster this big.
"This lobster was just airlifted in this morning. I made it myself. Xiaojing likes this kind of lobster the most." Ouyang Lan said.
Because there was only one lobster, Ouyang Lan said this, and Zhou Wen thought she was asking him to be more sensible and not compete with An Jing for the lobster.
An Jing was also somewhat moved when she heard this. A smile finally appeared on her frosty face, and she glanced at Zhou Wen provocatively.
But Ouyang Lan then said with a look of regret, "But seafood like lobster cannot be eaten with persimmons. Otherwise, you will get diarrhea, and in serious cases, you may get food poisoning. An Jing just ate persimmons, so I'll give this lobster to you, Xiaowen. Come and try my cooking."
As she spoke, Ouyang Lan put the lobster on Zhou Wen's plate.
In an instant, An Jing, who was about to pick up the lobster, was petrified there, and Zhou Wen was also shocked.
"It was intentional, absolutely intentional..." Zhou Wen thought that Ouyang Lan had deliberately given An Jing a hard time before, which was clearly a routine.
No wonder Zhou Wen felt strange before. Ouyang Lan was a person with such high emotional intelligence. There were several persimmons on the plate, and An Jing couldn’t finish them all by herself. Why didn’t she give one to Zhou Wen?
"Is this really An Jing's biological mother?" Zhou Wen looked at Ouyang Lan, who had bright eyes and white teeth and was elegant and generous, with a head full of questions.
In any case, Ouyang Lan seemed to be really nice to Zhou Wen. If someone didn't know them, they would think that Ouyang Lan was Zhou Wen's biological mother, and An Jing was the burden born to his ex-wife.
An Jing's face looked a little unhappy, but it could be seen that her upbringing was really good. Although she felt aggrieved, she did not leave in anger, but waited until the end of the dinner.
But she was in a very bad mood and only ate a very small amount.
What does it mean to feel at home, what does it mean to feel like being bathed in spring breeze, what does it mean to feel like being home? Zhou Wen finally felt it today.
Even Zhou Wen, who was somewhat emotionally dull and distant, had to admit that Ouyang Lan was indeed someone that it was difficult for people to feel bad about, and that people were even willing to get close to her.
"Xiao Wen, I heard that you were admitted to Sunset College. You must have suffered a lot, right? It's not easy for students from other places to be admitted to Sunset College. I don't have anything good to give you, so just consider this as a meeting gift." After dinner, when Zhou Wen was about to say goodbye and leave, Ouyang Lan handed Zhou Wen a card.
Zhou Wen originally thought it was a bank card or something and was about to refuse, but then he heard Ouyang Lan say, "This is a dormitory card for Sunset College, the kind for a single room. I heard Ling Feng say you like quiet, so I asked the principal to prepare one. After you enroll, just use the card number to go to the dormitory. You must accept this little gift. Don't make me think it's too casual, okay?"
"Thank you, Auntie. I like this gift very much." Zhou Wen thought about it and decided to accept the gift. Since Ouyang Lan had expressed her kindness, he didn't want to be a bad guy. A dormitory card was nothing, and a single room was indeed very useful to Zhou Wen.
The gift from Ouyang Lan made Zhou Wen's favor for her increase a little bit. Even giving gifts made people feel so comfortable. This Ouyang Lan was really a thoughtful person.
"By the way, you are not allowed to call me auntie from now on. Am I that old? Just call me Sister Lan from now on." Ouyang Lan said with a smile.
Zhou Wen could clearly feel that when she said the word "Auntie", her tone was much heavier, and it was obvious that she really cared.
