As soon as the maid left, Lan Rongrong rushed to Lan Ziye, holding his shoulders and excitedly said, "Mr. Lan, am I dreaming? I'm in the Chu family now? The Chu family, the largest family in Lanxuan Continent?"
Lan Ziye looked speechlessly at the excited Lan Rongrong who was almost fainting, and said with a smile, "Who was unwilling to come just now?"
"The Chu family is indeed... indeed too high-class. Living here makes people feel scared, uncomfortable, and uneasy. I'm doing this for Zhu Ning's own good!" Lan Rongrong said embarrassedly.
"The Chu family's chef is good and the snacks they make are delicious. Come and try them!" Lan Ziye sat down on the sofa in the living room and began to pour tea for Zhu Ning, Lan Rongrong and Jin Ruozhen very familiarly.
"Classmate Lan, you look like the hostess of this house!" Lan Rongrong teased with a playful smile.
Lan Ziye smiled and said, "I'm very familiar with this place!"
"Are you showing off?" Lan Rongrong deliberately frowned and teased.
"You can think so!" Lan Ziye handed the cup of tea to Lan Rongrong and said righteously.
Lan Rongrong laughed again, very happily. That smile seemed to dispel all the gloom, and even Zhu Ning's mood improved.
Just as a few people were talking and laughing, a deep old man's voice came from outside the door: "Little Lan, it's been a long time since you came to see grandpa!"
The previous laughing voices suddenly stopped. Lan Rongrong, Zhu Ning and Jin Ruozhen all looked out the door nervously, and saw an old man with a cane walking in with a kind smile on his face.
Of course they recognized this old man. He was the head of the Chu family who was feared throughout the Lanxuan Continent!
Lan Ziye showed no sign of fear towards the Patriarch. He stood up naturally, walked up to the Patriarch with a smile and said, "Patriarch, have you heard about Zhu Ning's situation? I want her to stay at the Chu family for a few days, just in case she wants to keep Chu Yu company!"
When Zhu Ning heard himself being mentioned, he was so frightened that he dared not even breathe, fearing that if he accidentally breathed too loudly, he would be thrown out by the head of the Chu family.
The Chu family's patriarch turned his loving gaze from Lan Ziye to Zhu Ning and said with a smile, "I love children the most. It's okay, let little Zhu live here. I'll greet Old Zhu!"
In other words, no matter who comes to pick him up from the Zhu family, he will protect Zhu Ning!
Zhu Ning didn't know whether he was frightened or grateful. His legs softened and he knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Thank you... Thank you, Patriarch Chu!"
This kneeling made the Chu family patriarch feel a little bewildered. He hurried forward to help Zhu Ning up, looked at Zhu Ning for a moment, and sighed, "You and your father really look alike! Back then, your father was the most lively and cheerful among the children, full of vigor and vitality! What a pity for such a good child!" He paused and continued, "Don't worry, Grandpa Chu is your greatest support. With Grandpa Chu here, no ghosts or monsters can touch you!"
Zhu Ning's eyes became hot and his eye sockets turned red instantly.
Lan Rongrong and Jin Ruozhen were stunned: Is this still the powerful and majestic head of the Chu family who would shake the Lanxuan Continent with just a cough?
The Chu family patriarch turned to look at Lan Ziye and said seriously, "Don't worry, Lan girl. Zhu Ning is with me. I'll make sure she's fine! Go ahead and find out the truth of this matter. I also want to see who has such great ability!"
