Chapter 128: Stepmother? Adopted daughter?
"I don't know if you'll be free later."
"But shouldn't you take some time out now?"
At some point, Ling Ran had already been leaning against the door frame with his arms folded, looking at Zhao Yun unkindly.
Judging from his expression, there's no telling how long this guy will hesitate.
Outside, Wu Linglong and He Linyi were already fast asleep together.
"Linglong drank a lot of wine tonight and has fallen asleep."
Seeing Zhao Yun's face full of confusion, Ling Ran explained again.
"oh oh!"
"I'll go now."
Zhao Yun suddenly realized, nodded hurriedly, and walked out with big strides.
Seeing Wu Linglong's little appearance, Zhao Yun felt warm in his heart. He quickly took off his dirty coat and gently hugged Wu Linglong like a princess.
"I'll leave this girl to you."
Zhao Yun looked at He Lin again and said to Ling Ran.
"no problem."
Ling Ran nodded, and just as he carried He Lin on his shoulders, the girl woke up in shock.
"ah!"
With a cry of surprise, He Lin opened her eyes, and when she saw that it was Ling, she lowered her head and said apologetically, "Sister Xiaoran, I'm sorry."
"I…"
I thought about it for a long time, but couldn't make out the reason.
He looked at her deeply. God knows why this girl is so insecure, but Ling Ran didn't mind.
He replied calmly, "It's okay. It's good that you woke up. We are going back now."
Then he said to Zhao Yun, "Just take Linglong back to your place."
After all, tonight is He Lin's first night staying overnight, and it would not be a good idea for a man like Zhao Yun to follow him in.
If you don't know, you might think Zhao Yun is hiding there all day. What if He Lin, a girl who already has an insecure feeling, becomes even more panicked?
"OK."
Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, then his brows lit up with joy. He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.
Now he feels comfortable no matter how he looks at He Lin.
In the past, Wu Linglong had to accompany Ling Ran, but now with He Lin, Wu Linglong is free. Ling Ran even took the initiative to ask Wu Linglong to go back with him!
Of course, if Wu Linglong was sober, she would definitely pat her butt and leave immediately after seeing Zhao Yun’s “disgusting” look.
Didn’t you see that Ling Ran couldn’t stand it anymore and just left taking He Lin’s hand?
But Wu Linglong is now unconscious; the aftereffects of the red wine are still quite strong.
"You guys arrange for that girl."
Zhao Yun gave instructions to the team members through the communication watch, then licked his lips, walked quickly to the window, and flew out.
A short absence is better than a new marriage!
He used to think Ling Ran was good, but now?
What a joke, only Mo Wen can handle that cold woman, she is not as good as Wu Linglong.
As for Ling Ran, he was driving He Lin, who was timid and basically didn't dare to talk to Ling Ran actively, so he seemed very dull.
"Xiaolin, don't you have any luggage?"
Ling Ran turned his head and asked.
"No."
He Lin responded with his head lowered, his expression somewhat gloomy.
"Then I'll take you to buy some clothes."
Ling Ran instinctively felt a little distressed and smiled.
"Sister Xiaoran, it's not necessary."
"It's really not necessary."
"I'll just wear my work clothes when I get to work."
He Lin almost hid her head in her clothes. In the eyes of an adult like Ling Ran, the disguise of this silly girl was so pale and powerless, but she continued to pretend.
"It's okay, I'll deduct it from your salary later."
"Don't think too much about it. Just treat Linglong and I as your family from now on."
Ling Ran held the steering wheel with one hand and rubbed He Lin's head with the other hand.
It seems that He Lin is also an unfortunate girl. She ran away from home?
Although Ling Ran had never felt any fatherly or daughterly love, she felt more family love from her grandmother as she depended on her for everything, so she had never had such thoughts.
She couldn't understand He Lin's feelings.
I can only care about this girl from the perspective of a former grandmother.
After all, she looked somewhat similar to her former self.
The capital city is a metropolis and the core of the Shenzhou continent. It also ranks high under the federal government.
It is a city that never sleeps, and it is also a "decadent" place.
Shopping malls that are open 24 hours a day can be found everywhere.
Ling Ran can't be considered a local tycoon, he can only be considered a petty bourgeois.
What she was wearing was just the result of Mo Wen's extravagant spending.
Walking with He Lin in this mid-to-upper-level shopping mall, the two of them attracted a lot of attention.
"I don't know whose stepmother she is."
"Look how pitiful that girl is."
"What a shameless mistress."
People’s imaginations are huge, and discussions arose.
Ling Ran didn't care at all. As the saying goes, a man of integrity has nothing to fear, and he didn't want to pay any attention to these guys at all.
He Lin, who was following Ling Ran, wanted to speak several times, but after seeing Ling Ran's indifference, she shut her mouth obediently.
It looks quite similar.
After a month or two of being out there, Ling Ran's immaturity has completely faded away.
Add to that He Lin’s disheveled appearance and age.
She really looks like the unscrupulous stepmother in TV dramas.
"Xiaolin, how do you see this place?"
Coming to a display window, Ling Ran pointed inside and asked softly.
Ling Ran wasn't sure if He Lin liked it.
After all, she has had a hard life. When she was He Lin's age, she had already followed her grandmother to catch rabbits and pick wild fruits all over the mountains. Most of the clothes she wore were made by her grandmother.
"nice."
He Lin has become crazy.
Under the warm light in the window, the rows of princess dresses are very beautiful.
Looking at He Lin, who was like Cinderella and didn't even dare to touch the window through the glass for fear of dirtying it, Ling Ran made a decision.
He took He Lin's little hand and walked in.
"Boss, according to her size, please recommend."
Ling Ran looked at the boss who was sitting behind the counter playing with his phone and not very attentive.
"Choose for yourself."
The boss glanced at Ling Ran, then looked at He Lin who was already immersed in this princess world, and responded indifferently.
"rich."
Ling Ran was displeased and slapped the bank card in front of the pretty young girl who looked to be in her twenties.
"oh!"
The boss slowly shifted his gaze from the bank card to Ling Ran's face, grinning and saying, "But I don't like making money from people like you."
"Sister Xiaoran, why don't we go to another place?"
Of course He Lin heard it too.
The dream was shattered in an instant, and he pulled Ling Ran and said with some grievance.
"good."
Ling Ran took a deep look at the boss who had doubts in his eyes, and patted He Lin's head lovingly.
"elder sister?"
"etc."
"Aren't you guys that related?"
Seeing Ling Ran and the others were about to leave, the boss stood up and shouted hurriedly.
"What is it?"
Ling Ran turned around and was stunned, then he remembered the looks of those people outside and reacted, "You also think I'm her stepmother?"
