"I refused."
Lang Ruoxian said on the other side of the phone.
"Then you will take me back?"
After hanging up the phone, Fang Diandian asked, "Are you Mr. Lang?"
"Well, he stopped by to pick me up after get off work."
"Sister Duoduo, please don't tell Mr. Lang that I'm in the same school as Professor Qiang~!"
Yan Hua asked strangely: Why? "
"What if he finds out and tries to prevent me from coming to the professor in the future? I won't be able to see or how to help you keep an eye on them."
o(╯□╰)o
Afraid that Lang Ruoxian would ask her, Fang Diandian simply left early. Yan Hua looked at the large table of food and had to eat slowly alone. As soon as Lang Ruoxian got out of the car, he saw Yan Hua eating leisurely inside from the French window of the hotel. He stood there without moving and stared at it for a minute, until Yan Hua spotted him and waved to him.
"What were you looking at just now?" Yan Hua asked when the man came over.
The waiter pulled out the chair opposite, Lang Ruoxian waved his hand and sat down next to Yan Hua.
"Looking at the beauty." The man looked sideways at her.
Yan Hua smiled and nodded: "Well, I am also looking at beauties now."
The beauty smiled like a flower, and Lang Ruoxian couldn't help but kiss her: "Are you full?"
"You're full, would you like to eat some too?"
Lang Ruoxian didn't have dinner, so Yanhua added two more dishes to him and went back together after finishing the meal.
On the way, she thought about the Qiang Di: "She has something to do with you?"
"It should be fine." Lang Ruoxian glanced at her, "I won't eat alone with her."
"You know I don't mind this." Yan Hua shook her head, "I just want to know what she thinks."
Having crossed more than half of China to follow from south to north, Qiang Di couldn't possibly just stay in one city. Yan Hua believes that it is best to resolve some potential unstable factors as much as possible, and not wait until something goes wrong to regret later.
"My method is simple and crude." Lang Ruoxian took Yan Hua's hand and touched it, "I don't have time."
In the following days, Qiang Di made an appointment with Lang Ruoxian almost every weekend, but Lang Ruoxian never went there once. Qiang Di threatened him angrily.
"If you refuse again, I will go to the company to find you."
Lang Ruoxian hung up the phone directly. After hearing this, Yan Hua felt that the Qiang flu problem must be solved, so she simply asked Lang Ruoxian to invite her to his home for dinner.
"Look, you regard her as your sister. She is the only connection left by your eldest brother. We can't ignore her, so let's just make her a family member."
Yan Hua had actually had this idea for a long time, but the time was not right before. Now is the right time for the Tang family to see the Qiang Di.
"I don't think she has bad intentions, it's just... she's just too lonely." Yan Hua couldn't find the right words to describe her.
She had no objection to anything Lang Ruoxian said, and called Qiang Di and asked her to come to her house for dinner on the weekend.
"Going to the Tang family?" Qiang Di was stunned for a few seconds after hearing this, "Are you sure?"
"Huahua invites you to come. My family also wants to meet you." Lang Ruoxian didn't lie to her. He had already said to meet Qiang Di after Bai Susu knew about his life experience.
Qiang Di agreed, but she was the only one who knew that this agreement was very uneasy. She even changed her clothes several times that day. In the end, she was angry with herself and felt that she was worthless.
Aren’t they just Yan Hua’s family? There’s nothing to be afraid of!
"Sister, do you feel that life is as lonely as snow?" Tang Cao looked at her sideways after knowing this.
Yan Hua is chatting in the group, she is in a small group with Fei Ying and Chen Hong. He replied without raising his head: "No, but I have long been used to loneliness in life. After all, not everyone is as good-looking as me.
"...Then why did you call your love rival to your home?"
"She is not a love rival." Yan Hua raised her head, "Don't be so weird when people come over at night."
Tang Cao pouted: "She just regarded her brother-in-law as a substitute. In addition, my brother-in-law's eldest brother died because of him. This favor will last a lifetime, and that woman will be bound to you for the rest of her life."
Seeing that she still hadn't responded, Tang Cao simply leaned towards her face and said, "Sister, wake up! Why do you want to lure a wolf into the house?"
"I told you she wasn't." Yan Hua glanced at him, "Why are you so honest at home today?"
Tang Cao: "I... I'm not afraid that you will be bullied, so I specially postponed the dinner to stay at home to protect you."
"No, you should go to the dinner!" Yan Hua smiled, "Don't say you don't need protection, even if there are so many people in the family, it's not your turn. Or...have you spent all the money grandma gave you last time?"
"I finished the flowers early, I..." Tang Cao covered his mouth, "I didn't say anything!"
Yan Hua pulled his head away: "So you have no money again?"
"... Yes." Tang Cao wilted, "There are still five thousand yuan."
Five thousand yuan is enough for an ordinary person's home for a month, but it is not enough for Tang Cao and others to sing karaoke for one night.
"If you don't talk nonsense tonight, I'll give you 50,000 yuan."
Tang Cao's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Ding! Tang Cao's cell phone rang, the sound of Alipay receiving money.
"I'll give you 20,000 yuan first, and if you obey, I'll give you 30,000 yuan tomorrow." Yan Hua knew Tang Cao so well that once the drama spirit possessed her, no one could stop her, only money. Otherwise, if this boy really said something at night, all her efforts would be in vain.
"Don't worry, sister~! I'm going to sew my mouth shut now, and I promise not to say a word tonight!"
In the evening Qiang Di arrived at Tang's house on time and Yan Hua opened the door.
"Long time no see." Qiang Di handed over a gift bag, "Thank you for inviting me to be your guest."
Yan Hua saw that she had obviously dressed up. Although she looked very decent, her occasionally wandering eyes betrayed that she was actually nervous.
"Qiang Di grew up in an orphanage. She had no relatives. Later, the only relative she had was my eldest brother." Thinking of Lang Ruoxian's words, Yan Hua's heart softened. This girl was afraid. She didn't know how to get along with her family.
It may be very stressful to face a large family of Tang family all at once. However, he still came bravely. Yan Hua couldn't help but smile and said: "Come in quickly, you're welcome!"
Qiang Di thought her smile was a little strange, but this was not the time to pay attention to it.
"Hello, aunt and uncle, I'm Qiang Di." Seeing Bai Susu and Tang Yao in the living room, Qiang Di quickly greeted them.
Tang Yao: "Oh, there are no us..."
Bai Susu took back her hand: "Haha, don't mind, your uncle wants to say that you are not as tall as us northerners, you are small and exquisite and very beautiful. Come on, let's go to the restaurant and get ready to eat!"
"Dad!" Tang Cao, who was lagging behind, pulled Tang Yao and whispered, "Did you just say that she is not as good-looking as my sister?"
Tang Yao rubbed the back of his head: "Yes, your mother is getting more and more angry. Ouch, it hurts. By the way, didn't you say yesterday that this girl was uneasy and kind-hearted? Why didn't you say anything just now?"
You took 50,000 yuan and still said shit o(*￣︶￣*)o
"I wanted to tell you, but I didn't say anything when my mother whipped you."
Tang Yao slapped him: "I won't tell you why you are such a thief!"
"Don't bother! You have to say it." Tang Cao tricked his father, "What if my sister is bullied?"
Tang Yao thought that he was right, he had to keep an eye on that girl, and after finishing speaking, he ran towards the restaurant.
"My grandma didn't know you were coming. She couldn't refuse her friend's birthday today, so she asked me to tell you to come over often." Yanhua put the fruit tea in front of the Qiang flute, "Try it, my mother made it, drink it outside. Not even."
Qiang Di quickly picked it up and took a sip, and then said solemnly: "It tastes very good, thank you, auntie."
He even glanced at Yan Hua secretly, obviously not wanting to thank her.
"Drink more if you like it!" Bai Susu greeted her, "I heard that you grew up abroad and asked your aunt to make steak. I don't know if it suits your taste. Please try it."
Qiang Di cut a large piece and put it in his mouth: "It's delicious."
… Aren’t you afraid of choking when you take such a big mouth
Yan Hua twitched the corner of her mouth, and Lang Ruoxian glanced at her and raised his eyebrows.
"It's okay." Yan Hua came over and whispered, "Actually, the Qiang flute is quite cute."
"Not as cute as you." Lang Ruoxian cut the steak for her.
Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, Qiang Di's expression changed obviously, but Bai Susu had been talking to her, and she couldn't embarrass Bai Susu. As a result, he would laugh one second and glare at Yan Hua the next. The more times he did it, the more he would become a bit overwhelmed.
"We have a few friends who like your paintings very much. We will definitely go to see your paintings next time." Bai Susu had already talked to each other, but when he saw the girl who had been smiling sweetly before, she suddenly glared at him.
"I'm sorry!" Qiang Di panicked. She wanted to glare at Yanhua, but she glared at the wrong person.
puff! Yan Hua almost died laughing. Then Tang Yao, who was looking for a chance to talk one night, felt that he had finally come into use. You little girl, how dare you stare at my wife!
"you… "
"Tang Yao, go upstairs and see if Wuyou and Gungun have finished eating." After saying one word, he was interrupted by Bai Susu.
Wuyou and Gungun were eating in the room, and Tang Yao asked blankly: "Shall I go?"
"Otherwise?" Bai Susu asked with a smile.
Tang Yao trembled: "I'm going! I'm going! I'm going right away."
As he said that, he pushed away the chair and ran away.
"Don't mind it!" Bai Susu poured a bowl of soup for Qiang Di, "Your uncle is a cheerful person." He said and glanced at his son who was sitting at the end and had been eating hard all night.
Strange... why is this kid so quiet today.
Tang Cao was suddenly excited: "I'm full, please use it slowly!" He stood up and turned around, then turned back and smiled very enthusiastically at Qiang Di, "Miss Qiang Di, please use it slowly, be sure to eat well and feel our family." Enthusiasm like a spring breeze.”
"...Don't mind." Bai Susu looked at her youngest son who ran away and forced a smile, "My son is also more cheerful, hehehe..."
Qiang Di: This family must be poisonous...
After dinner, Yan Hua invited Qiang Di to go for a walk. There was a large artificial garden behind the villa, and the weather was neither too cold nor too hot.
"Actually, you don't want to see me at all, do you?" Qiang Di spoke first.
Yan Hua lowered her head, and from the perspective of the Qiang Di, she could see a slight smile.
"Not really. I hope you treat me as family. This is what Ruoxian hopes."
"So you invited me to your home?" Qiang Di smiled mockingly, "Yes, you have a home. Before, you had nothing but Lang Ruoxian. But now you have memories, a family, and social status. "
"What should I compare with you?" Qiang Di sighed, turning his head and said, "I really hate you."
