When Lan Guoer saw that her little girl was safe and sound, sleeping soundly in the arms of a stranger, she finally felt relieved.
She gasped and patted her chest. Just as she was about to say something, she looked up and saw a familiar face.
Lan Guoer couldn't help but be startled, her eyes widening, "Zhou Jingrui? Is it really you?"
Ever since she cured his leg, Lan Guoer has never seen him again.
When Lan Guoer needed medicinal herbs, she also went to Grandma Yi to find him.
Grandma Yi didn't know where he went. She only said that when he left, he told her that the medicinal herbs in the basement were left for her and she could use them as she pleased.
And he seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth and never appeared again.
In the blink of an eye, a year and a half passed, and Lan Guoer really didn't expect to see him here again.
Lan Guoer couldn't help but look him up and down. A year and a half was not a long time, but this man's temperament seemed to have changed dramatically!
He used to have a face full of beard, but now he has kept his face very neatly groomed, revealing refreshing wheat-colored skin and making his facial features look more three-dimensional and profound.
Especially his outfit!
Well-cut and fine-textured handmade haute couture suits, blue diamond cufflinks, limited edition B century watches...the combination and details all demonstrate refinement and taste!
A truly noble young man!
"You, how could you..."
Zhou Jingrui was about to ask something when he suddenly thought of a possibility! He couldn't help but look at the little girl in his arms.
When he left, Lan Guoer was still pregnant. Considering the time, shouldn't the belly be this big?
"This, this is your child?"
Lan Guoer glanced at the little girl in his arms. The little girl's face was rosy as she slept. She seemed very comfortable and showed no signs of waking up. She breathed a sigh of relief and replied,
"It's my daughter! She was kidnapped by human traffickers while she was shopping in the department store today! We searched all the way here."
She said, holding out her hands, "You must have been holding her for a long time, right? Give her to me!"
Zhou Jingrui carefully handed Xiao Nuan to her arms, still a little reluctant, "The little girl is very smart and looks like you!"
Thinking of how Xiao Nuan ran over to him on the street today, grabbed his trouser leg, and asked him to take her to find her mother, his heart softened.
"What's the child's name?" Zhou Jingrui asked.
"My full name is Tang Jinyao, and my nickname is Xiaonuan. I am the third child in the family." Lan Guoer blurted out.
"Third brother?" Zhou Jingrui was puzzled!
Lan Guoer smiled and said, "I gave birth to triplets, and Xiao Nuan has two older brothers."
Zhou Jingrui couldn't help but glance at her slender waist! There was no sign of her having given birth to triplets.
"You're really good at giving birth!" he murmured in a rude tone.
Lan Guoer could guess what he was thinking from his expression! He was most likely comparing her to some kind of animal!
Considering that he was nice to Xiao Nuan, she glanced at him and didn't bother with him!
"By the way, why is Xiao Nuan with you? Where have you been in the past year? You seem to be doing pretty well!" Lan Guoer asked the questions in her heart.
“We were going to the outskirts of the city to do some work today, and the little girl rushed out from nowhere and almost crashed into the car.
Seeing that she was so young and there was no one around, I carried her into the car and was just discussing with Mr. Shen about finding the child's family!
Zhou Jingrui's words were high-sounding, but everyone who knew him knew that he was not a warm-hearted person! But he couldn't tell Lan Guoer that he brought the little girl with him because she looked like her.
"As for where I went..." Zhou Jingrui glanced at her with a scoundrel tone.
"You've had a baby and moved, do you still have time to think about me?"
There was an inexplicable emotion in Zhou Jingrui's tone, perhaps even he himself didn't realize it.
Lan Guoer just thought he was joking, and seeing that he didn't want to say more, she didn't ask any more questions.
"Thanks so much to you today! Otherwise, who knows what would have happened!"
Thinking of how Xiao Nuan looked in his arms just now, she knew that he took good care of the child, and Lan Guoer thanked him sincerely.
"You cured my leg, so this little thing is nothing! Besides, even if it wasn't your child, I would still save it. You don't have to worry about it."
Zhou Jingrui didn't want to hear her thanks, as if she was so distant from him!
Tang Zhan had been keeping an eye on the movements inside. Knowing that his wife and daughter were safe and sound, and that he seemed to have met someone he knew, he did not rush in.
He asked Xiao Liuzi a few questions and learned about Xiao Nuan's experience after escaping from the human traffickers.
Knowing that Xiao Liuzi and the others had just bumped into him by accident and had no ill intentions, he walked into the state-owned restaurant.
Seeing Lan Guoer holding the child and standing with a tall man, he walked up and took the child from her arms.
"Long time no see! Mr. Zhou! You are really different now!"
Tang Zhan had just learned Zhou Jingrui's identity from Xiao Liuzi. Seeing his appearance, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Who would have thought that the lame man who used to guard the scrap yard would suddenly become one of the richest young men in Hong Kong!
"Comrade Tang hasn't changed much! It seems he's been busy with big things again, putting himself aside and neglecting his own little family."
When Zhou Jingrui said this, his eyes swept across the child in his arms and Lan Guoer intentionally or unintentionally. The meaning was obvious. It was almost like he was openly mocking him for not being able to take care of his own child and woman!
Tang Zhan sneered in his heart. From the first time he saw this man, he keenly noticed that there was something wrong with the way he looked at his young wife.
As a man, how could he not understand the meaning? That was the look a man would show when he saw the opposite sex he liked.
And at this moment, how could he not hear the sarcasm in the other party's words?
"Mr. Zhou is right on target! I really don't have as much time as Mr. Zhou to care so much about other people's children."
Just now, when they were outside, Tang Zhan was still confused. If their encounter with Xiao Nuan was an accident, couldn't they just send her to the nearby police station? Why did they bring her all the way here?
Now that he knew that the person who saved his little girl was Zhou Jingrui, he seemed to understand a little!
Among the three children, Xiao Nuan looks the most like Lan Guoer, and is simply a little replica of Lan Guoer!
Zhou Jingrui was probably worried about handing the child over to the police because of this, so he brought her here.
It has to be said that Tang Zhan was very perceptive and he guessed Zhou Jingrui's thoughts in an instant.
The undercurrents between the two of them naturally did not escape Lan Guoer's eyes. She really couldn't understand them!
