"Get in the car! Do you expect me to get out and personally invite you?" Qian Chengfeng's tone was unusually gentle, making it hard to resist.
"Well... alright, thank you for your care, Brother Chengfeng." Ye Lan knew perfectly well that everything should be done in moderation and one should not be too stubborn.
"Xiao Lan, when exactly did you return? Why didn't you tell me beforehand? We haven't seen each other for so long, we should find an opportunity to get together."
"Brother Chengfeng, I just got back yesterday. I was just thinking of seeing Aunt Huo." Ye Lan's voice was a little low, and her eyes revealed a trace of sadness.
"You know, right now I..." She paused, seemingly trying to control her emotions, but tears still welled up uncontrollably, her sobs heartbreaking.
Seeing this, Qian Chengfeng quickly pulled out a tissue and handed it to Ye Lan: "Here, wipe your tears. Why are you still crying? What's wrong? Can't you come over?" His tone was full of concern and comfort.
Ye Lan took the tissue and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, sobbing as she said, "I...I'm not worthy...to play with you anymore."
Every word was spoken with such difficulty, as if it had taken all the strength in the body.
"Xiao Lan, you're being too formal. We grew up together, how can we not play together?" Qian Chengfeng frowned and looked at Ye Lan seriously, trying to dispel her thoughts.
"Alright, stop crying. You won't be pretty if you keep crying." He reached out and gently wiped away the tears on Ye Lan's cheeks, coaxing her tenderly.
Upon hearing this, Ye Lan burst into laughter through her tears, a smile as radiant and captivating as spring flowers in full bloom.
The two continued chatting about their childhood memories and the wonderful times they had spent together, their laughter filling the air.
Before they knew it, they had arrived at their destination.
"Brother Chengfeng, what's this?" Ye Lan asked knowingly when she saw Qian Chengfeng park his car in front of a high-end Western restaurant.
"Of course we came here to eat, did you come to see a movie?" Qian Chengfeng replied with a smile.
"Beautiful Miss Xiao Lan, please get out of the car!" As he spoke, Qian Chengfeng gracefully got out of the car and walked to the other side, gentlemanly opening the car door for Ye Lan. He bowed slightly, extended his right hand, and gestured for her to get out, his eyes full of affection.
"Thank you, Brother Chengfeng." Ye Lan said shyly.
The two enjoyed a candlelight dinner together and drank some red wine.
"Brother Chengfeng, I feel dizzy," Ye Lan said softly, while deliberately pretending to walk unsteadily and stand unsteadily.
"Xiao Lan, don't worry, come on, let me help you walk." Seeing this, Qian Chengfeng quickly stretched out a hand and gently put it on Ye Lan's shoulder, and used his other half to hug her to prevent her from falling.
Qian Chengfeng is a master of romance, so how could he not see through Ye Lan's little scheme?
However, since the other party had taken the initiative to throw themselves into his arms, he had no reason to refuse—wouldn't it be a waste not to eat the delicious food that was offered to him?
"Xiao Lan, where do you live? Let me take you home first," Qian Chengfeng asked knowingly, but his face still showed great concern.
Upon hearing this, Ye Lan did not respond, but instead closed her eyes and pretended to fall asleep.
Seeing this, Qian Chengfeng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a cunning and wicked smile.
Immediately afterwards, he took Ye Lan to one of his secret apartments without hesitation.
After entering the room, the two naturally embraced and fell asleep, spending a wonderful night together...
The next morning, sunlight streamed through the curtains into the room, illuminating the messy bed.
Ye Lan slowly woke up and looked at Qian Chengfeng, who was fast asleep beside her, and blushed with embarrassment.
She bit her lip lightly, her eyes revealing a complex mix of emotions, a mixture of shyness and annoyance.
"Brother Chengfeng, you...I..." Ye Lan's voice trembled slightly, her eyes reddened, and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, as if they would roll down at any moment.
"Alright, Xiao Lan, it's all my fault. I lacked self-control. But who can resist your charm? From now on, you'll be my girlfriend, okay?" Qian Chengfeng opened his eyes, gazing at Ye Lan with deep affection, his tone gentle and full of doting.
If someone unaware of the inside story were here, they might actually be moved by the deep affection Qian Chengfeng was displaying at this moment, and mistakenly believe that he was head over heels in love with Ye Lan.
Qian Chengfeng came up with a good idea last night: to take advantage of Ye Lan's greed and control Huo Nanchu, so that he could take over the Huo family business.
"But, I look like this..."
“You are wonderful. In my heart, you are the best. I liked you even when you were with Anan, but you only had eyes for Anan. So…” Qian Chengfeng looked disappointed.
"Later, you broke up, and I thought I had a chance, but I didn't expect you to just disappear. I can't find you anywhere."
"Now that you're finally back, I certainly won't let this opportunity slip by."
"Will you be my girlfriend?" Qian Chengfeng asked, kneeling on one knee on the bed with deep affection.
"Okay, sure." Ye Lan nodded.
Ye Lan was very pleased with herself, feeling that the Qian family and the Huo family in Beijing were evenly matched.
Ye Lan was hoping that she could marry into the Qian family smoothly by having a child.
But she didn't expect that Qian Chengfeng was just using her.
