When the little girl's mood finally stabilized, Luo Zhan led Tang Ran and slowly walked to the second floor of the Tang family's main house along the Z-shaped wooden stairs.

Turning around the rest platform in the middle of the first and second floors, Luo Zhan was about to step up the first steps, but when he saw two people standing in the corridor on the second floor above the dozen steps, he stopped.

Two or three seconds later, Tang Ran noticed something and raised his head in confusion: "Luo Luo, what's wrong?"

"… "

Hearing this name in person, Mr. Luo, who was standing in the corridor on the second floor, flashed complex emotions in his eyes.

But under his eyelids, the always reckless little grandson deserved to get used to nature, and even more directly withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at him—

"It's nothing, I bumped into someone." Luo Zhan said indifferently, "Let's go."

He originally wanted to take the little girl and continue to walk up, but Tang Ran grabbed the corner of his clothes tightly. There was obvious worry and panic on the little girl's face.

This time it was Luo Zhan's turn to have an accident. Tang Ran couldn't look at him, and he was not familiar with Mr. Luo. It was unreasonable to have any possibility of detection.

He patiently lowered his voice and asked, "Why don't you leave?"

Tang Ran hesitated for a few seconds, then tugged Luo Zhan's cuff in his direction. Luo Zhan understood, and bent down, not forgetting to block the view from the second floor for the little girl.

Then he heard the little girl cling to his ear, and said cautiously and worriedly: "I didn't hear footsteps just now, so they must have come before us. Have they heard what we said?"

Luo Zhan raised his eyes thoughtfully and looked to the second floor. After looking at Old Man Luo and the housekeeper Lin Yi beside him for a few seconds, he dropped his gaze and nodded, "I should have heard it."

"Then what should I do?" The little girl showed a more worried mood.

Luo Zhan asked, "Afraid that they will go to the old lady of the Tang family to sue you?"

Tang Ran hesitated for a few seconds, then said honestly: "Grandma won't care about me. At most, she tells me to stay in the side house and not come out. I'm afraid she will tell Grandpa Luo. Will Grandpa Luo train you..."

The little girl's concern and concern for him were beyond words, and Luo Zhan couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

Among the tricks and tricks that the young master is best at, he has never been too lazy or disdain to use bitter meat. But when he came to Tang Ran at this time, he didn't need to practice, he was very handy at making it—

"The old man's bad temper, it's light to discipline me. At home, he's looking for crutches everywhere to beat me every few days."

Tang Ran hesitated for a while, and was still a little unconvinced: "But everyone said that Grandpa Luo treated you very well."

Luo Zhan snorted lightly: "I didn't know it was coming to Tang's house at first today. In order to force me to come, he found a team of capture and fighting professionals to go downstairs to my house and tie me up."

"Ah?" The little girl became anxious, "Then, what should I do, or I'll explain to Grandpa Luo..."

"fine."

Luo Zhan didn't want the little girl to worry too much, he laughed happily and comforted, "I know the person who heard it, and the Luo family came with them. They won't go to your old lady to complain."

Tang Ran breathed a sigh of relief.

Going up a few more stairs, Tang Ran remembered something, turned his head and asked in a low voice, "Then they won't sue Grandpa Luo?"

Luo Zhan smiled lazily against the old man's obviously bad eyes: "No."

Tang Ran was relieved, "Aren't you familiar with them?"

"Well." Luo Zhan added casually, "The two stewards of the Luo family—" He paused and thought about it, "Grandpa."

Suddenly, the old man who lost a generation of his grandson: "... ?"

The housekeeper didn't care about this and stood still with a smile on his face.

Under those two beams of sight, Luo Zhan still didn't think he wanted to go his own way. He helped the little girl up the corridor on the second floor without looking sideways.

At this moment, he stopped, and he was less than twenty centimeters away from the old man.

Probably because the old man's aura was really heavy, the little girl beside Luo Zhan clenched the corners of Luo Zhan's cuffs uneasily.

Luo Zhan slowed down: "The temperature and humidity outside are very comfortable tonight. Let me accompany you to the terrace for a walk."

Tang Ran hesitated: "Aren't Grandpa Luo and the others still waiting?"

"They have something to do. They went downstairs before, and they shouldn't come back now. I'll send you up to say hello when they come back."

"… it is good."

Watching the two figures, one high and one low, walk to the end of the long corridor, and then disappear into the corner. In front of the stairs, Mr. Luo slowly sighed after being silent for a long time.

He asked, "Lin Yi, what do you think?"

Butler Lin had long guessed that he would not be able to escape this, and it was not surprising at this time, after considering it for a few seconds, he said with a gentle smile: "I just looked at it casually, but I have never seen the young master look like this for so many years. It's so new."

"I haven't seen it, don't say you haven't, I've never seen a grandfather." The old man shook his head, "I should have guessed that if this little girl didn't have that kind of influence over him, then He won't change his personality after what happened that year."

The housekeeper said tentatively, "Then, old man, do you think the young master looks good?"

The old man was silent for a long time, snorted in a low voice, and said reluctantly, "...It's a little awkward, but it's not bad overall."

The housekeeper smiled, "Young master will let you have a good personality."

"… "

The old man turned his head and frowned, but he still didn't say anything.

The housekeeper waited for a while, and when he saw that the old man never spoke, he said again: "I see that the young master can talk to the little girl with such a temperament, it's like he has changed his personality, and he really meets the person he likes, the character of the young master. Can't stand it either."

"Like it?" The old man was really stimulated by the sharpest words in the gentle message, and he snorted coldly, "Speaking like that to a 16- or 17-year-old girl, he is not afraid of being called a hooligan. That is to say, what we heard was us - someone else, I'm afraid there must be someone poking his spine behind his back!"

"Sixteen or seventeen years old, won't it be the legal age for marriage in a few years?" The butler smiled kindly.

"… "

The word "marriage" made the old man sink even more.

But at least he didn't get angry directly, which shows that there is not much room for it.

The housekeeper thought for a few seconds and asked, "Are you worried that the old lady of the Tang family does not agree?"

"It's not a big issue whether she agrees or not," said Mr. Luo with a frown, "but even if she agrees, she won't admit Tang Ran's identity. At that time, everyone will feel that we belong to the Luo family. The future wife of the heir married is an illegitimate daughter of the Tang family."

Butler Lin's smile faded, and he said helplessly, "Young master won't care about that."

"Hmph, of course he doesn't care. What do they care about young people? After all, they are still young. They only think that they can shut up people with their own ability and capital, but they don't even know how to write the words "horrible". Don't think about it, since ancient times, this emperor, Laozi, who has been in charge of life and death in the world, still can't stop the long speeches - "the mouth of the people is better than the prevention of the river". They teach them all day in their textbooks, and some of them really take it to their hearts. Understand?"

Butler Lin smiled bitterly: "But with the temperament of the young master, I'm afraid you can't tell him. It can't really be like today. If he doesn't obey, he will be tied up."

Mr. Luo was silent for a while, and suddenly asked, "Is there any news about the Tang family's daughter who married abroad in recent years?"

Lin Yi was taken aback: "Do you want to use her to correct Tang Ran's life and name?"

The old man didn't speak, and looked at him seriously.

Butler Lin hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "I haven't heard of it. Since Tang Shiyu fell out with the Tang family and got married and went abroad that year, little news has come back. I heard that she has never contacted the Tang family."

The old man asked again, "Which family did she marry?"

Lin Yi shook his head: "I don't know. The old lady of the Tang family arranged it for her, but didn't she deliberately find someone else to marry?"

The old man was reminded of the younger generation, and shook his head with a headache: "Speaking of which, the character of this little girl Tang Ran is really different from her mother's."

Lin Yi also smiled wryly: "No, back then, the reputation of this young lady from the Tang family was so frightening... If it weren't for her really powerful character, this old lady really has no curse to recite, and I'm afraid she wouldn't. He resorted to the ruthless means of deceiving his own daughter with a stillbirth."

After listening to this, the old man snorted disapprovingly: "The way she used her methods cruelly should not be her daughter taking the blame for her."

Lin Yi nodded: "What the old gentleman said is."

"Then you think, with Tang Shiyu's temperament, she would really marry so sloppily?"

Lin Yi hesitated, then said calmly: "Actually, some people said that Tang Shiyu got married out of the country in order to get out of his mother's control - but there has been no movement in these years, and I can't say for sure."

"So," Mr. Luo pondered for a moment and said, "you find someone to follow the news of her getting married and going abroad, check the affairs of her husband's house, and then follow her current situation."

Lin Yi's eyes were surprised: "Old sir, are you really going to correct Tang Ran's name?"

The old man was silent for a few seconds, and snorted coldly: "I was forced to do nothing by that stinky boy - I have to prepare with both hands, or I will let him drag the Luo family into the ditch in the end?"

Butler Lin laughed: "Yes, yes, your reasons are correct."

The old man squinted at him coldly: "What is the reason?"

Butler Lin smiled gently and stopped talking.

"Okay, let's go upstairs as well. You didn't listen to that stinky boy and reminded me before he left - I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up in time, and the little girl who finally came out will be thrown into the air."

The old man sneered, filled with resentment.

"Raising him for so many years, he is not as good as one percent of that little girl to me. He also said that he was a white-eyed wolf."

Lin Yi followed up with a smile, and finally asked, "Since Tang Shiyu is going to be checked, why not ask Tang Shiyu's unmarried man to check it out?"

The old man stopped walking upstairs and asked, "Is that her former boyfriend?"

"Yes."

"The poor family?"

Lin Yi thought for a while, and said, "It seems... There is really no information. When you asked me to find out the little girl's background and wanted to help her find her relatives, I didn't even find out her father's name. It is estimated that all traces were found by Tang. Home wiped."

"Hmph, this old lady can be cruel to her own daughter, let alone an outsider who delayed her marriage plan."

Lin Yi also sighed lightly: "At that time, I only heard about the school they were studying in. Maybe to avoid the eyes and ears of the Tang family, their love was also underground, and few people knew about it. Only Tang Shiyu's roommate vaguely heard her mention it and said It's a poor student from an orphan, living on a bursary and scholarship. The grades should be good, but the specific information has not been disclosed. "

The old man was silent for a moment, and while walking upstairs, he asked in a low voice, "Then where did the people go after that?"

Lin Yi: "I don't know, it seems that the world has evaporated." Lin Yi hesitated, his voice lowered to the lowest level, "I doubted it at the time, it would not have been..."

"Don't talk nonsense."

The old man interrupted him angrily.

"Yes." Butler Lin smiled bitterly, "But even if nothing happened, a poor student with absolutely no background would not have a good end to such a behemoth of the Tang family."

"yes."

The old man sighed softly.

"At least there won't be a place for him in the country. Probably in a corner of a small country that I don't know."

Lin Yi: "Do you still want to investigate him?"

The old man said: "No need. There are poor boys like this all over the world, and they can't make waves if they find out. Just follow the line of Tang Shiyu and feel the situation."

"Yes, old gentleman."
