Chapter 362 Inviting her to buy gifts for her sisters
Upon hearing the name Yan Su, An Jing instantly jumped up and down: "Try mentioning it again, and I'll break your legs!"
Murong Ting forced a smile: "Go ahead and hit me. Anyway, Wanwan will take care of me once the break is broken. But you, why are you reacting so strongly? You're not still thinking about my brother-in-law, are you? How about I talk to him for you next time I'm drinking with him?"
"Murong Ting! Shut your stinking mouth! Who does he think he is, that he's worth me keeping thinking about? Let me tell you, your aunt has a boyfriend now!"
"Oh, right." Murong Ting raised an eyebrow. "I almost forgot, I heard from Fourth Aunt that you're bringing your boyfriend home this weekend. You found a new boyfriend so quickly, is it a rental? Is it to appease your aunts' pressure to get married?"
Quiet:"……"
When did this cunning nephew become so shrewd?
She coughed lightly, then raised her voice somewhat guiltily: "Mumu, how can you be so avant-garde? As a virtuous and conservative woman, how could your aunt possibly think of such a trendy method as renting a boyfriend? Let me tell you, my current boyfriend and I fell in love at first sight, it was destiny, it's absolutely true love!"
Murong Ting remained noncommittal, then looked back at the computer screen: "That would be best. Anyway, I'll know once you bring people back tomorrow."
"Look? You're still in the hospital, how can you get treatment? Don't go through all that trouble."
"My one and only aunt is taking her true love back home, so even if I have to crawl, I have to crawl back to see her, right?"
Anjing: "...No need for that."
Murong Ting acted as if he hadn't heard her and completely ignored her.
Anjing couldn't sit still any longer. Her sisters were troublesome enough, but if Murong Ting were added to the mix, she might be exposed. She wanted to persuade her good nephew again, but at that moment, her phone suddenly vibrated in her bag.
She took out her phone and saw the caller ID read "Teacher Luo." She glanced at Murong Ting guiltily, then deliberately walked a little further away before answering.
The cold, ruthless voice came from across the room: "An'an, you're meeting your parents tomorrow. I'm planning to buy some gifts, but I don't know your sisters' preferences. Where are you? How about I drive over and pick you up, and you come with me to buy them?"
Anjing let out an "Ah": "Isn't that a bit too much trouble..."
She glanced at Murong Ting on the bed, walked out of the ward and whispered, "Teacher Luo, it's just a formality anyway, there's no need to make it seem so real, right?"
“If we’re going to put on an act, we have to go all the way. Didn’t you say the sisters are all very smart? What if we don’t act well and they find out what’s going on?” Leng Yanluo’s voice was calm and unhurried.
That's true.
Anjing nodded quietly: "Okay then, you don't need to pick me up. Let's meet at Baide Plaza in half an hour."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, An Jing returned to the ward, pondering how to start the conversation.
On the bed, Murong Ting had already closed his laptop and looked like he knew everything, saying, "Your true love is calling?"
Anjing coughed lightly and said, "Anyway, I see you don't have anything to do. Since you don't want me to stay here, why should I get in your way? I guess I'll just have to leave."
Murong Ting blinked: "I've suddenly changed my mind, Auntie. I have a headache. Please stay and take care of me."
"ah?"
Murong Ting glanced at her: "Hypocritical."
Quiet:"……"
She stepped forward and said irritably, "We're in the same boat. I just asked your attending physician, and you're perfectly capable of being discharged now. You're just lingering here to gain sympathy and make Xiaoge feel sorry for you and take care of you, aren't you? When it comes to hypocrisy, I can't beat you! You're full of tricks!"
Murong Ting raised an eyebrow: "It's getting late, you should go on your date with your true love. Goodbye."
Hmph, Anjing picked up her bag, turned around, and strode out of the ward without a trace of hesitation.
At Baide Plaza, Leng Yanluo had been waiting for more than ten minutes.
At 3 p.m., the Cupid Fountain outside was spraying water and playing music. There were a few people scattered around taking pictures, and men and women were holding hands, throwing coins into the fountain and making wishes.
It looks a bit silly, but it's also quite beautiful.
When the quiet passed, the first thing you saw was the back of the cold-blooded Yama.
He stood by the fountain, dressed in a navy blue casual outfit—a very ordinary look—but he stood out because of his tall, perfect physique and the cool mask on his face.
People around him were pointing and whispering at him from time to time, but he seemed not to hear them, only looking at the fountain, as if he was contemplating some philosophy of life.
Quietly, she walked over, her playful mood stirring within her. She intended to pat him on the back to scare him, but before she could even get close, she saw him walk over to an older woman nearby, then take out his phone and exchange something with her.
She was stunned for a moment, and then she saw him take a coin from the aunt's hand.
Then, standing by the fountain, he seemed to mutter something to himself before reverently tossing a coin into the pool.
Quiet:"?"
What the heck? I thought all the people making wishes here were young girls.
The mighty Cold Yama would actually be willing to join in this fun?
Just then, Leng Yanluo turned around, and upon seeing the quiet scene, he visibly stiffened for a moment.
But he quickly realized what was happening and walked towards her.
The two faced each other, and Leng Yanluo spoke first: "We've arrived, why didn't you say so?"
"I just got here too." Anjing couldn't help but gossip, "Teacher Luo, I saw you just throwing coins into the pool. You actually believe in that?"
Leng Yanluo coughed lightly and pulled An Jing towards the mall: "No, I just saw everyone around me throwing things, and it looked interesting, so I just joined in."
"Forget it." Anjing gave him a look that said, "You're not being honest. You exchanged those coins with the lady next to you, and you were so sincere when you tossed them. Tell me, don't you actually have a past relationship that you can't forget? You said you'd never had a girlfriend before, were you lying?"
Once the quiet gossip got going, Leng Yanluo was clearly struggling to keep up.
After a long pause, he could only say, "I've never had a girlfriend, but... I have someone I like."
"Ah..." Anjing suddenly realized, and then said with great interest, "I knew it! People who throw coins into this pool to make wishes are usually praying for a good marriage. How could it be just for fun? By the way, Teacher Luo, what kind of girl do you like? Have you started pursuing her? Tell me and I'll give you some advice. Let me tell you, women really do understand women better. Having a female strategist can definitely make things twice as easy!"
Leng Yanluo let out a long breath and said, "We're already in pursuit."
"Wow, I didn't realize Teacher Luo was so proactive! So, how about it, were you impressed by your actions?"
Leng Yanluo glanced at her, and after a long while, he said in a low voice, "No, the other party is rather oblivious. She can't sense anything I do."
