"What, do you think my outfit is strange?"
No, not at all.
"Is it pretty?"
"It's alright, but it affects the senses."
"Senses?"
Han Zhiruo didn't understand Luo Chen's meaning. She looked herself over a few more times but didn't find anything wrong.
She rarely wears these clothes; she usually wears her police uniform.
If she weren't off today, she probably would have come in her police uniform.
Moreover, she spent a long time choosing this outfit and didn't find anything wrong with it, so how could it affect her sense of style?
Luo Chen shook his head regretfully.
[What a pity! Not only is that sense of anticipation gone, but the cleavage is no longer visible either. Han Zhiruo, your taste in clothes really needs improvement.]
[The host successfully dissed the opponent; charm points increased by one.]
Hearing Luo Chen's thoughts, Han Zhiruo was completely distraught.
So this is what Luo Chen meant by "sensory perception"!
It's because she usually wears clothes that are too tight, so she wanted to wear something loose. How is that her problem?
You have bad taste, don't you?
Han Zhiruo stared at Luo Chen with a dangerous expression and said coldly, "I'm off today, so get in the car quickly."
Where to?
"Don't ask. Just tell me to go. If you ask again, I'll get angry."
"Alright."
Seeing his mysterious demeanor, Luo Chen didn't bother to ask any more questions and simply sat down in the passenger seat.
Looking at Luo Chen's calm expression.
Han Zhiruo pouted.
After starting the machine, he took Luo Chen and left.
The two arrived at an orchard, and Han Zhiruo drove the car in.
Inside, a black sedan was already parked.
Neither of them paid much attention.
Han Zhiruo got out of the car and pulled Luo Chen inside.
The orchard is now completely bare; all the fruit has been picked, and even many leaves have fallen. If it weren't for someone managing it, you probably wouldn't even be able to see the path.
"Han Zhiruo, why did you bring me here?"
"Of course I'll take you to see something beautiful," Han Zhiruo said with a mysterious smile.
"Pretty?"
Luo Chen looked around again, rolled his eyes. A bare expanse of fruit trees, what was there to see? Did he expect to enjoy the scenery here?
I don't remember anything special about this place.
Seeing Luo Chen like this, Han Zhiruo snorted softly, clearly not wanting to tell him.
The two walked along the path, continuing deeper into the area.
The further in you go, the more fruit trees there are.
Fortunately, the fruit trees are now bare, otherwise, the lighting here would really be a problem.
"Luo Chen, do you still remember things from when you were little?" Han Zhiruo slowed her pace and asked Luo Chen.
"I vaguely remember it, but I don't know which one you're referring to?"
"Do you remember when you brought me here when I was little?"
Luo Chen didn't answer, thought for a while, and then nodded: "I remember."
"I thought you had forgotten."
Han Zhiruo laughed happily, and then recalled, "Back then, no one dared to play with me. Everyone was afraid of me, thinking that if they played with me, they would get hurt. I don't know what they were thinking. I didn't bully them at all. On the contrary, I helped them. In the end, it turned out like that."
Luo Chen also knew about these things. When Han Zhiruo was young, she had a strong sense of justice. If a child was bullied, she would help him. However, she didn't become a good person. Instead, she was treated as a bully and everyone was afraid of her.
This incident undoubtedly made Han Zhiruo feel very wronged, and gradually, she had no one else around her.
"Tell me, if my sister hadn't contacted me that day, would I have gotten to know you?"
Han Zhiruo was referring to the incident when Luo Chen was a child, when he got into a fight with an older student at the back gate of the school. If Han Zhiqing hadn't discovered it and gone to her for help, the two might never have met.
"Probably..."
Luo Chen touched his chin, somewhat uncertain.
"What do you mean by 'should be'?" Han Zhiruo said, somewhat displeased, glaring at him.
"Haha, you were so violent back then, who would dare to do that?"
"Luo Chen!" Han Zhiruo gritted her teeth in anger.
"Don't get agitated."
Luo Chen quickly said, "Actually, I noticed you a long time ago, but I didn't know how to approach you. If it weren't for that incident, I would have gotten to know you too."
"Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course, didn't you see how you bullied me? I still didn't leave you."
Luo Chen gave Han Zhiruo a disgruntled look.
Han Zhiruo's fair face inexplicably flushed red.
Back then, Luo Chen always bullied her and made her angry. She couldn't control her temper, so she retaliated by beating Luo Chen up.
Han Zhiruo didn't say anything more. Her face was flushed, and she lowered her head as she led the way.
Luo Chen followed behind, still not understanding what Han Zhiruo wanted to do with him.
After walking for a few minutes, the two arrived at the greenhouse.
At the entrance, a middle-aged man in a black trench coat was looking at the sky with a weary expression, slowly smoking a cigarette.
Luo Chen was somewhat surprised to see this person.
"Old Xu, what are you doing here?"
This person was none other than Uncle Xu, Ling Qingyi's shadow.
"Young Master Luo, you've arrived." Uncle Xu exhaled a smoke ring and nodded with a smile.
Luo Chen looked at Uncle Xu strangely and asked uncertainly, "If you're here, then your young lady is here too?"
Uncle Xu is Ling Qingyi's shadow, always responsible for protecting her. Every time Ling Qingyi goes out, Uncle Xu will follow her. Unless there are some important matters that require him to do, most of the time, Uncle Xu will be by Ling Qingyi's side to protect her.
Of course, he wouldn't follow me during my private time; he would only accompany me when I needed to run errands.
"Yes, Miss is inside, she's been waiting for you for quite a while."
"wait for me?"
Luo Chen looked at Han Zhiruo. He still didn't understand why Han Zhiruo had brought him here, and now there was Ling Qingyi too. What was going on?
Seeing Uncle Xu standing at the door smoking, Han Zhiruo glared at him irritably.
This left Uncle Xu completely puzzled, wondering what he had done to anger Han Zhiruo.
I originally wanted to give Luo Chen a surprise, but I didn't expect Uncle Xu to be standing at the door. Why didn't he go somewhere else to smoke? Now the surprise is halved.
How could Han Zhiruo not resent Uncle Xu?
"You'll know once you go in," Han Zhiruo said casually, sounding somewhat disappointed.
Luo Chen nodded, puzzled. Since he was already here, he figured he might as well go in and see what was going on.
As Luo Chen passed by Uncle Xu, he stopped and saw Uncle Xu light another cigarette, exhale smoke rings, and shake his head slightly.
Uncle Xu didn't understand why Luo Chen was shaking his head, and asked, "Young Master Luo, is there anything else?"
"No, it's just that I've been smoking for so many years, but I was a little disappointed that you've remained at this level."
"..."
Is there such a thing as a level of attainment when it comes to smoking?
Uncle Xu said it was the first time he had heard of it.
