Chapter 650 The best friend trio Luo Shuning and Lin Han's relationship is heating up rapidly. Under Luo Shuning's deliberate guidance, the two have become very close best friends, able to share a glass of water and a dessert.
It was another weekend, inside Tang Qi's villa, in her bedroom.
Sunlight streamed through the white curtains of the French windows, casting soft dappled light on the carpet in Luo Shuning's bedroom.
Lin Han and Ren Lei were huddled around the table, looking through Luo Shuning's collection. The skirt patterns in the album were exquisite, and the two occasionally whispered to each other.
Faint piano music drifted from downstairs; it was Luo Shuning reviewing a piece she had played before. The melody was light and lively, perfectly matching the warm atmosphere in the room.
"Hanhan, Leilei, Auntie has peeled some pomelos for you."
The door was gently pushed open, and Tang Qi's voice, tinged with laughter, came through.
She wore a beige silk loungewear set, with the sleeves casually rolled up to her forearms, revealing her slender wrists. Even in such a simple outfit, the diva's elegant temperament was still undeniable.
On the white porcelain plate I'm holding, the peeled pomelo segments are neatly arranged, the plump fruit pieces glistening with moisture. Each segment is cleaned thoroughly, without even a trace of white pith.
"Thank you, Auntie."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Lin Han and Ren Lei stood up almost at the same time, their voices full of obedience.
Ren Lei stood up, quickly stepped forward to take the fruit platter, her arms trembling slightly with excitement, and said sweetly:
"Auntie, you're so kind! You peeled this pomelo even more beautifully than you do in a fruit shop. I love you so much!"
The way she held the fruit platter was as if she were holding some rare treasure.
Lin Han has a quiet personality and needs someone to respond enthusiastically.
One's words must be sweet, absolutely sweet.
Tang Qi laughed out loud at her joke, and reached out to affectionately ruffle Ren Lei's bun, her fingertips touching the soft strands of hair:
"This child has such a sweet tongue. You guys have some to eat first to satisfy your cravings. Ningning said she'll come up and keep you company after she finishes practicing the last part."
As she spoke, she gently pinched Ren Lei's chubby cheeks, which felt soft to the touch: "Sit down and eat with Hanhan, don't be polite with your auntie."
Ren Lei, like a kitten being stroked, squinted her eyes and rubbed against Tang Qi's palm, almost letting out a satisfied "purring" sound.
Tang Qi couldn't help but chuckle. She added a couple more instructions: "The kitchen is fine after you finish eating. If you need anything, just call Auntie." Then she turned around, gently closed the door, and went downstairs.
As soon as the door closed, Ren Lei jumped onto the sofa with a fruit platter in her hand and excitedly said to Lin Han:
"Hanhan, did you hear that?! That's Tang Qi, the queen of pop who has won countless Golden Melody Awards! She actually peeled pomelos for us herself! Good heavens! Even my mom at home never gives me this kind of treatment!"
"Waaaaah, I peeled them myself, I peeled them myself, I didn't even ask the nanny to do it..."
"Now I finally understand why there were so many Deadpools in ancient times, sob sob... Aunt Tang is so kind..."
"......."
Lin Han covered her mouth and chuckled as she listened to this, then picked up a toothpick, poked a small piece of pomelo flesh, and put it in her mouth.
The sweet juice bursts on the tongue, the flesh is plump and firm, and it has a natural fruity aroma. It is obviously a carefully selected good variety.
She nodded quietly: "Yes, Aunt Tang is really kind."
She has visited the villa several times this week. Each time, Tang Qi treats them with exceptional kindness, preparing their favorite snacks in advance and remembering Lin Han's little habit of not eating cilantro. This thoughtfulness warms Han's heart.
But suddenly, Lin Han realized even more clearly that Tang Qi's kindness was only because of Luo Shuning.
Even so, this unpretentious gentleness still deeply moved her, and made her understand even more the importance of Luo Shuning in Tang Qi's heart.
It can be said that she is a child who is cherished and pampered.
Even a biological daughter wouldn't be this good.
“Come on, Hanhan, ah—” Ren Lei then picked up the largest segment of pomelo and held it to Lin Han’s lips, her eyes curving into crescents.
"You can eat by yourself, I didn't feed you just now."
"Oh, never mind, never mind, I know you're shy, hurry up, open your mouth, ah~~~"
Seeing this, Lin Han had no choice but to smile and open her mouth. The sweet fruit flesh slid into her mouth, and she picked up a segment and handed it to Ren Lei: "It's your turn, be good, open your mouth."
Ren Lei immediately came over happily, and their laughter was as clear as wind chimes.
They met through Luo Shuning. One was lively and cheerful, while the other was quiet and gentle. Their personalities complemented each other, yet they got along exceptionally well and became inseparable best friends within a few days.
Ren Lei would share her fun stories about following celebrities with Lin Han, and Lin Han would patiently listen to Ren Lei complain about her troubles at school, just like old friends who had known each other for a long time.
Lin Han bit into a pomelo, her gaze falling on the courtyard outside the window, and suddenly thought of Yang Huihui.
Huihui is her best friend. The two of them study together in the library and queue up together in the cafeteria to buy sweet and sour pork ribs. They are so close that even wearing the same skirt is too big for them.
It would be great if Huihui could be brought along too. She would definitely like the atmosphere here and have a great chat with Ren Lei.
But as soon as the thought popped into her head, she suppressed it.
As the saying goes, "Guests shouldn't bring other guests." I'm here because I'm using Luo Shuning's status as her best friend, so it wouldn't be appropriate to bring another friend.
Moreover, given Luo Shuning's special status, security and privacy at the villa are of utmost importance. Bringing outsiders here rashly would not only be disrespectful to Luo Shuning but could also cause trouble for Tang Qi.
Lin Han sighed softly, swallowed the rest of the pomelo pulp, and made up her mind that she must bring Huihui some good food as compensation next time they met. This matter had to be kept to herself.
Otherwise, this girl would definitely cry, make a scene, and threaten suicide to demand that I come.
"Hanhan, what are you thinking about?" Ren Lei poked her cheek: "I've almost finished the pomelo, if you don't eat it soon, there won't be any left."
Lin Han snapped out of her daze, looked at the few remaining segments of pomelo on the plate, and smiled as she picked up a piece:
"Nothing, I was just thinking how sweet this pomelo is."
The piano music stopped just then, and Luo Shuning's voice came from outside the door: "I'm here! Lei'er, did you finish eating all the pomelos?"
The two girls exchanged a glance, both seeing a smile in each other's eyes. They quickly pushed the plate towards the center, waiting for their key person to join this sweet "pomelo party."
