"housekeeper?"
Ran Dongcheng was surprised when he heard this. "You said you were the housekeeper hired by my daughter Ran Xia? Why should I believe you?"
The man in front of me has a handsome appearance and is obviously from a wealthy family.
How could I possibly come to their house to be a housekeeper?
Yi Tangchen strode to the sofa and sat down, lazily crossing his legs on the coffee table opposite, with a wicked smile on his face all the time: "If Mr. Ran doesn't believe me, you can ask your daughter."
Of course, Ran Dongcheng would not confront Ran Xia face to face. He still had to coax his daughter.
So, he said in a gentle voice, "Sir, my daughter doesn't know much about the situation at home. We don't need a housekeeper right now, so..."
But before Ran Dongcheng could finish his words, Zhou Lulu beside him interrupted him in a delicate voice: "Dongcheng, I actually think it would be a good idea for our family to hire a housekeeper. You are the boss of such a big company, and it would not sound good if the news got out that you don't even have a housekeeper at home."
"Besides, with a housekeeper here, the servants at home won't dare to be lazy, and they can also help you with the housework. Isn't that great?"
For Zhou Lulu, being able to keep this handsome butler is naturally a good thing.
She originally married Ran Dongcheng for money. If she could be with this housekeeper...
"You have a point." Ran Dongcheng thought about it carefully. Before, all the household affairs were managed by Zhang Yanfang. Now that Zhang Yanfang has been arrested and imprisoned, she naturally can't take care of it anymore.
He doesn't have the energy to take care of household affairs, so it would be more convenient to have a housekeeper.
Besides, if the housekeeper hired by Ran Xia stays, wouldn’t it be easier to build a good relationship with Ran Xia?
Thinking of this, he said to Yi Tangchen, "In that case, I'll let you stay for now. But I hope you won't meddle in other people's business. You should decide for yourself what you should and shouldn't be involved in."
"For example, if Mr. Ran lets his mistress bully his daughter, we can't do anything about this kind of thing, right?" Yi Tangchen deliberately asked back.
Ran Dongcheng's face suddenly became a little embarrassed: "What nonsense are you talking about? Zhou Lulu is not a mistress, she is my new wife."
Yi Tangchen's mouth curled up into a playful arc. "Just now, I thought Mr. Ran wanted to explain that he wouldn't let a mistress bully his daughter. I didn't expect that..."
Ran Dongcheng was furious: "Sir, if you insist on meddling in other people's business, don't blame me..."
"What a coincidence! I like to meddle in other people's business." Yi Tangchen interrupted Ran Dongcheng before he could finish his words: "Especially because I can't stand seeing your beautiful daughter being bullied, huh?"
After hearing what Yi Tangchen said, Ran Yue upstairs' heart, which had been as hopeless as ever, suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.
Her father was so heartless, but the new housekeeper was willing to stand up for him.
Brother Butler, I hope you can be my only support in this family in the future!
Similarly, Ran Xia upstairs could also see the entire scene downstairs.
But the corners of the girl's mouth curled up into a beautiful arc.
Yi Tangchen performed very well!
If the situation continues like this, this family will soon be in chaos.
Most importantly, she also wanted Ran Yue to experience the feeling of being hurt by the person she trusted the most.
…
When Yi Tangchen went upstairs, Ran Yue came out of the room with red eyes. She lowered her head and said gratefully, "Brother Butler, thank you so much for what you did just now."
Yi Tangchen gave the girl a charming smirk: "You're welcome, it's just a small favor. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, I will help you."
Ran Yue immediately smiled: "You are except..."
She originally wanted to say Mu Xu, but when she thought of Mu Xu's ruthlessness towards her, she immediately changed her words: "The person who treats me best except my mother."
Yi Tangchen sneered in his heart.
But she had a gentle smile on her face: "You are such a kind and beautiful girl, who would have the heart to hurt you."
When Ran Yue heard this, she clenched her fists tightly.
She recalled the scene where she was insulted by Mr. Wang and those motorcyclists, and her heart was suddenly filled with hatred.
"Go to bed early." At this time, Yi Tangchen reached out and ruffled the girl's hair: "Tomorrow will be another beautiful day."
"Brother Butler, you should also go to bed early." An indescribable gloom flashed under Ran Yue's drooping long eyelashes.
"good evening!"
After returning to his room, Yi Tangchen went to the bathroom to wash his hands immediately.
So dirty!
To be honest, if it weren't for Ran Xia, he wouldn't want to be a scumbag.
…
The other side.
Zhan Beiyao just returned to the villa.
I found my mother Yuan Qian sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.
"Mom." The man walked forward and asked calmly, "Why are you here?"
Yuan Qian put the newspaper down and looked at Zhan Beiyao with a smile: "I knew you were coming back, so I came to see you. How is it? Is Liehuo okay?"
"He's fine now." Zhan Beiyao replied.
Yuan Qian sighed, "Actually, Liehuo is a rather pitiful child. He was abandoned by his family when he was sick as a child, and I was the one who picked him up. Now he is loyal to our Zhan family, so we must treat him well."
"I know." Zhan Beiyao nodded: "I will treat everyone who sincerely treats us well."
Yuan Qian nodded, her expression suddenly becoming more serious: "Did Ran Xia go to Death Island to look for you?"
Zhan Beiyao did not ask how his mother knew about this, but just nodded lightly.
Yuan Qian didn't hide her thoughts: "I specially sent a bodyguard to secretly protect her, but I didn't expect her to be even more powerful than I thought. She actually dared to enter the Death Island alone? It seems that she is not as simple as I thought!"
Zhan Beiyao nodded: "If she is too innocent, do you think she is qualified to be your daughter-in-law?"
"That being said."
Yuan Qian sighed: "But Ah Yao, her presence is bound to bring you trouble. Are you really mentally prepared?"
Zhan Beiyao nodded without hesitation: "Mom, I know what I'm doing."
"Very good." Yuan Qian nodded. "Ayao, in this case, Mom will definitely fully support you and Ran Xia. But you have to be on guard against Zhan Yichen. I have a feeling he might use a big move during this period."
"Mom, don't worry."
Zhan Beiyao's red lips, thick and thin, were covered with a dazzling smile: "I have my own way to deal with it."
…
Ran family villa.
A little after one in the morning.
Yi Tangchen, who had fallen asleep, suddenly noticed something unusual.
The man suddenly opened his eyes.
Only then did he realize that someone was using a key to open his room door.
A hint of coldness suddenly flashed in Yi Tangchen's pupils.
At this time, the door opened, and a woman in a nightgown tiptoed in and closed the door.
