But the two elders didn't want to disturb the two of them, so they went back to their room early, even Mrs. Lin and Uncle Zhong went back to their room.
Everyone just wanted the couple to get together and talk.
Zhang Xingrong felt helpless and walked for a while before returning to her room. She had to wait until Lu Ran finished washing before returning to avoid running into him. Although there was a bathroom, she was always a little unsure how to deal with it.
When I returned to the room, Lu Ran had already washed up and was sitting on the sofa in the room.
He was holding a book, leaning back on the sofa with his legs crossed. His posture was lazy and beautiful, but he was reading seriously. If you look closely, you can see that the book is about some military theory.
Seeing the man so serious, Zhang Xingrong said nothing and walked in.
The man heard the voice, raised his head, and said very gently: "I'm back."
"Yeah." Zhang Xingrong nodded and stopped. "Thank you this time."
If it weren't for Lu Ran, she might have been able to get the stone out by herself, but she might not have been able to rescue the few people she brought with her.
Those people also have families, and they took risks for money, so that their families could survive. So she didn't want anything to happen to them.
Fortunately, Lu Ran came, and although some people were injured in this operation, no one died. This was the most gratifying thing for her.
Lu Ran, who accompanied her into the trap, was hit by an egg and almost died.
But even though it was so dangerous, he still went in to save people without hesitation. It would be a lie to say that he was not touched.
Even if he knew that the people inside were not Zhang Hewu and the children, he would still go in. But seeing people really risking their lives to do this, she was still affected in her heart.
Although it was not said explicitly, Lu Ran knew that Zhang Xingrong was thanking him for saving people this time.
He closed the book, looked at Zhang Xingrong and said seriously, "This is my responsibility."
Yes, it was his responsibility. Zhang Xingrong still said, "Thank you."
"but--"
Just as Zhang Xingrong went to the bathroom, Lu Ran's voice rang out again—
"Even if it's not my mission, I will go. As long as it's your business, I will go."
Zhang Xingrong stopped where she was. She didn't look back at the man, but she couldn't help but clench her fingers and put them tightly together.
The man behind her looked at her, hoping she would turn around and look at him. But she didn't, as if she was still holding on.
"I can't go back and make amends for what happened in my past life. I didn't fall in love with you in my past life, but I'm sure I didn't fall in love with Zhang Xinglian in my past life. I didn't like anyone in my past life. But in this life, I love you. I'm sorry, some things are too late, but fortunately I can make amends."
Zhang Xingrong didn't expect that he would take the initiative to bring up things in his previous life, and turned around in surprise.
The man was also looking at her, with regret, sadness, but more of a sense of relief on his face: "I can do a lot of things in this life."
Zhang Xingrong's heart was in turmoil, but she didn't know how to answer. She loved Lu Ran. But it was difficult for her to pretend that nothing had happened in her past life.
But Lu Ran didn't say anything more, just said: "Go take a shower and rest, I'll sleep on the sofa tonight."
The topic ended like this. Zhang Xingrong paused for a moment, and finally said nothing. She turned around and went to wash up.
When she came out again, she found Lu Ran already asleep on the sofa.
