Hearing this, Kong Xianxian sighed softly. Before her niece showed her talent in medicine, the brother and sister were always framed. Every time they begged their cousin on their knees, he would not believe them and only believed what he saw with his own eyes. Who can say for sure that what they saw with their own eyes is the truth?
If she hadn't pleaded for mercy every time, it's unclear whether the brother and sister could survive under their cousin's family rules.
"Okay, stop thinking about the past. Just be good from now on. The higher your status is, the better it will be for them, just like what happened between Zhou Xiang and Jiang Xing'an."
Kong Youran perked up and nodded, "Yes! If I weren't on the opposing side, I really would applaud Zhou Xiang!"
"Okay, take a break!"
Kong Xianxian left her niece's room and told her nephew to wait outside the door. She waved him back to his room and said, "You Ran is fine now. Go back and practice. If possible, I will ask the head of the family to take you in with me. Don't let me down."
Kong Haoran's eyes lit up, "Yes! Thank you, little aunt."
After saying that, he ran back to his room without waiting for Kong Xianxian to say anything.
On March 25th, the patriarch of the Kong family finally arrived. Zhou Xiang was not interested in meeting an old man, so he asked Ling Ran to accompany the teacher.
Professor Chu waved his hand, "Xiao Tang is with me! Ask Ling Ran to accompany you. From now on, you can't leave anyone by your side, just in case."
Ling Ran happily stayed by his wife's side. Zhou Xiang looked at the smile on his face and couldn't help but sneer at him, "Do you think you are protecting me, or am I protecting you?"
"It's all the same. Is there any distinction between you and me? Besides, I've married you, so it's only right that you protect me."
Zhou Xiang rolled his eyes and said, "You are definitely the most shameless person in the world."
"Didn't you say you should be thick-skinned and eat as much as you want? I definitely have to maintain my thick skin."
The two bored people simply closed the door, entered the room, and went to the space to see the puppy.
The 12 puppies were all full of energy, which made Ling Ran want to train them.
Zhou was unsure, "Why do you train them? It would be a shame not to send them away after training them. If you dare to train the dogs, Da Huang will have to bring Xiao Huang and the others to sit on you again."
Ling Ran looked at Da Huang, who was glaring at him eagerly, and suppressed his inner thoughts. "Wife, take me to the chicken coop to get some eggs to feed the puppies! I'll build a good relationship with them first. Once things get better, I'll train them in basic obedience. It's so inconvenient to let them roam free like this and have to rely on Da Huang for orders!"
Zhou Xiang looked at Da Huang. Although Da Huang had recovered his strength here, who knew how much longer he could live? He nodded, took him to the chicken coop to get eggs, and brought him back.
He called Da Huang, who was guarding against thieves, over and said, "Da Huang, come here."
Da Huang looked at Ling Ran, then walked towards Zhou Xiang, looking back every few steps.
Zhou Xiang stroked Da Huang's fur and said, "Da Huang, I told you that these puppies won't be sent away. Ling Ran can't get rid of them without my permission. Let him train them and learn how to understand my orders."
Da Huang, who was extremely nervous, lay down on the grass after hearing what Zhou Xiang said. Zhou Xiang followed suit and lay down. Smelling the scent of the grass, Zhou Xiang closed his eyes. He hadn't felt so relaxed for a long time.
The relaxed person fell asleep, while Ling Ran happily communicated with the puppy.
Professor Chu, who was outside the space, said awkwardly to the young man beside him, "Sorry, my student is tired recently and should be taking a nap. Please go sit over there first. They will definitely open the door when it's time to cook."
Kong Qianchen chuckled at the broken wooden door. He didn't go to meet the head of the Kong family, but instead went to sleep behind the door. It seemed like he was deliberately turning him away. "Then let's go sit with Professor Chu."
When Zhou Xiang woke up from his sleep, he found two animals lying on each side of him, one was Da Huang and the other was a follower.
Pushing Ling Ran awake, "It's time to go out."
Ling Ran opened his sleepy eyes. "Okay! Time to make lunch. I wonder if the captain has bought pork and cabbage again?"
Zhou Xiang chuckled. This team leader was quite interesting. He bought one meat and one vegetable dish like this every day. It was really speechless.
After leaving the space, opening the door, crossing the yard and opening the door of the front room, Zhou Xiang found pork and cabbage placed by the door. He couldn't help laughing. It was the end of March and the cabbage was almost gone. The team leader's bad taste was really bad.
"Ling Ran, the design of that toilet and the only double bed was not done by the captain, right?"
Ling Ran nodded grimly, "Who else could it be besides him?"
Zhou Xiang burst out laughing again. It was really interesting to use the power in his hands to play tricks on his teammates.
When Professor Chu and Kong Qianchen walked out, they saw Zhou Xiang with a beautiful smile on her face.
"Zhou Xiang, what's so funny?"
Zhou Xiang heard the teacher's voice and turned to answer, "Haven't you noticed that every day lately, I've been eating pork and Chinese cabbage, the meat and vegetable? I'm just laughing at the captain's bad taste!"
Professor Chu smiled and nodded. "I was wondering why we eat these two vegetables every day! I have to say, the newly harvested bok choy is so fresh this season! Why eat stale vegetables from last winter?
By the way, this is Mr. Kong Qianchen, the head of the Kong family. He has been here for a long time and didn’t expect you to take a nap.
Mr. Kong Qianchen, this is Zhou Xiang and her lover Ling Ran."
Zhou Xiang immediately stopped smiling. This was the head of the Kong family? He wasn't an old man after all! He nodded coldly at the handsome yet charming man beside his teacher, "Hello, head of the Kong family! I've heard of your great reputation!"
If Zhou Xiang's smile just now was like sunshine, his expression now was like frost in the cold winter.
Kong Qianchen felt that the warm, sunny smile he had just given off still made him feel comfortable both physically and mentally.
Moreover, he was very confident in his appearance. How many women could not help but be attracted to him the moment they saw his face? Why did Zhou Xiang's face drop without a pause? Even if it was because of hostility, it was impossible to resist his charm?
Look at the man next to her, with ordinary looks and a bear-like body. How can he be as drool-worthy as her, who looks thin when dressed and has muscular body when undressed?
"Miss Zhou, I've heard a lot about you! Now that I've met you today, you're exactly as I imagined."
Zhou Xiang frowned. Was he teasing her? She looked up at the Kong family head's appearance and immediately understood. Haha, he was just a man who had been flattered by all the women. That devilish smile on his face, tinged with male hormones, exuded charm towards her. Wasn't he just trying to make her crazy? Was he planning to use the honey trap like Kong Xianxian? Unfortunately, she was not the inexperienced eldest brother.
"Master Kong, as the head of a large family and a successful man, you say such words to a married woman. What are you planning to do? I'm not narcissistic enough to make you fall in love at first sight, so don't try to find vanity in me, and don't try to use your beauty on me. What does a good-looking appearance really mean?"
