It was really magical and wonderful. She seemed to be able to see blooming flowers when she closed her eyes, and she could hear the sound of thin streams in her ears. She enjoyed it so much.
After a long time, Gu Lanchen let her go, and then his deep eyes stared at her tightly and refused to let go.
"Tell me the answer now, huh?"
Luo Wanqing came to his senses and reached out to pinch Gu Lanchen's earlobe.
She stared at the man thoughtfully.
In fact, Gu Lanchen was the man who appeared again and again in her dreams. There must have been a deep bond between them.
And the person who died once before must be her.
She came to her senses, stood up, and looked at Gu Lanchen face to face.
Then she said seriously, "Second uncle, tell me first, am I the little girl who died once before?"
Gu Lanchen's eyes darkened for a moment, then he stretched out a hand to half support the side of his face and said word by word, "Yes."
His memory was forced back to that year. In fact, Luo Wanqing had never died at all. He had actually faked his death that year...
As for the reason, he still feels that it is too early and does not want to reveal too much.
Just when he was about to speak, the driver opened the door and got in the car, "Mr. Gu, the water you want."
Gu Lanchen took it and handed one of the bottles to Luo Wanqing, "I will tell you your story later."
"All you need to know now is that in this life, I will do my best to protect you."
Luo Wanqing's hand paused as he took the water, and his heart skipped a beat.
As a warm current flowed into her heart, Luo Wanqing came back to her senses as if waking up from a dream.
"Second uncle, it's getting late, let's go home first."
She spoke stiffly, and this time her second uncle screamed particularly uncomfortable.
Since the man doesn't want to tell her, she doesn't have to worry. There will be plenty of opportunities to pursue the truth later.
Besides, I will have a chance to see my mother tomorrow...
Her focus seemed to have suddenly shifted.
At night, the Bai family's old house.
When the man appeared at the banquet, he had already caused a sensation.
At this time, he was wearing a royal blue suit, which perfectly set off his tall aura, while the little girl next to him was wearing a sky blue dress, and the pearl necklace on her chest was just right, not making her look older at all.
The two of them were so well matched together that even Mr. Bai, who was standing in the center of the living room, was instantly attracted to her.
Especially when he saw that the person coming was Gu Lanchen, the old man couldn't open his mouth with joy.
Everyone in the upper class knows that Gu Lanchen dislikes participating in various banquets. It is a great honor for the Bai family to be able to come to the Bai family today.
Mr. Bai greeted me with a smile, "Mr. Gu, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to come."
Half of the old man's hair has turned white, but the wrinkles on his face do not show any sinister look at all.
Luo Wanqing stared at Mr. Bai and thought of his deceased grandfather again, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Hearing this, Gu Lanchen's face showed no emotional changes, "Well, it was my little girl who said she wanted to come, and I will accompany her."
The people around him had originally focused their attention on this side. Although they were doing their own thing on the surface, they were actually secretly paying attention to the conversation between the host here and Gu Lanchen.
At this time, after hearing the words "I will accompany her", the whispers in the crowd became more obvious.
"What do you mean, has it been made public?"
"Why are you making it public? We have a proper uncle-nephew relationship, but your most filthy thoughts can be about things between men and women."
"No, haven't you heard of the urban legend about Mr. Gu? He has never been a womanizer, but he adopted the daughter of a down-and-out family for no reason. Don't you think it's strange?"
"Say less and be careful not to offend the wrong people."
…
Luo Wanqing had long been accustomed to these words, and his expression hardly changed when he heard them.
Instead, Gu Lanchen cast his gaze on the person who had just been chewing his tongue, with a trace of obvious displeasure flashing in his eyes.
He knew that person, he was a child of a distant relative of the Song family.
Then he took out the phone from his pocket and dialed Lin Han, "Have we recently had business dealings with distant relatives of the Song family?"
Lin Han on the other side of the phone was stunned for a moment when he was asked. It took him a minute to give a definite answer, "Mr. Gu, we do have a very small project."
"Cancel immediately and will never consider cooperating with them again."
After saying that, Gu Lanchen hung up the phone.
The person who had been eavesdropping was extremely unconvinced, but since the other person was Gu Lanchen, he didn't dare to get angry on the spot, so he just stomped away.
When Mr. Bai left the living room to prepare his opening remarks, Gu Lanchen curled his lips and stared at the depressed little girl, "I helped you vent your anger."
Luo Wanqing's incomprehensible expression seemed like he was asking for reward.
A big smile appeared on her delicate little face, "Thank you, uncle."
She didn't think it was anything at first, but as the man's words became more and more unpleasant, Luo Wanqing couldn't control herself.
After that, Gu Lanchen called Lin Han to cancel the cooperation...
I have to say that old men are quite good at coaxing little girls.
Luo Wanqing calmed down and said with a wicked smile, "Second uncle, you are so good at coaxing people, you have done it a lot before, right?"
"Well, I always try to coax you." The man stared at Mr. Bai, who slowly walked onto the stage, with a smile in his tone.
"Ahem." Mr. Bai coughed on the stage, and then spoke loudly and forcefully, "Thank you all for coming to Bai's birthday party today. I wish you all have a good time."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, music started playing in the hall.
Then, surrounded by people, he came to a tower of crystal cups stacked high and prepared to pour the wine into it.
Luo Wanqing was not far from those cups, and her eyes were always on the crystal cups.
There was a sudden commotion in the crowd, as if someone was running towards this direction quickly.
"ah!"
The next second, Luo Wanqing felt himself being pushed forward by a super strong force.
Her eyes widened, and she was about to fall down on those crystal cups.
A powerful palm instantly pulled her into his arms, and for a moment, the familiar scent of cedar enveloped her.
Gu Lanchen held the little girl in his arms with lingering fear, staring closely at the perpetrator.
At this time, a waiter bumped into Luo Wanqing because of his carelessness, and he fell to the ground in embarrassment.
The tray he was holding had fallen to the ground.
The waiter was so frightened that he kept his head down and did not dare to speak.
The aura around Gu Lanchen instantly became cold, and a powerful aura formed on his side.
The cold is oppressive.
"Yes, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do it. I'm really sorry." The waiter knelt on the ground and apologized with his head lowered.
Luo Wanqing suddenly raised his head from the man's arms.
