Chapter 2307 Going to Her House
Lan Yue looked at the delicate girl and stubbed out the cigarette in his hand.
He squatted down and looked at the little girl whose eyes were red and sobbing. He lowered his voice unconsciously. “What’s wrong?”
The young girl was fair and tender, her black grape-like eyes seemed to have been soaked in water, like a porcelain doll, making people not dare to speak loudly for fear of scaring her.
In the past few years, Lan Yue had become much colder and harder. There were very few people and things that could move him.
But this young girl in front of him gave him an indescribable feeling. After Lan Yue squatted down, Little Candy could see his face more clearly.
She forgot her fear and exclaimed in her heart. This Uncle was really handsome!
In her eyes, Uncle was already very handsome, but this Uncle was not worse than Uncle.
Little Candy blinked her beautiful glass-like eyes and said in a young and crisp voice, “I can’t find Grandma Zhang.”
Grandma Zhang was the servant who took care of Tang Wu and Little Candy.
She had brought Little Candy out to buy things. When she was settling the bill, she did not notice that Little Candy had run away.
“I saw a child taking a beautiful balloon and wanted to ask him where he bought it…” Little Candy sniffed her nose. “After asking, I couldn’t find Grandma Zhang.” Lan Yue quickly understood that the young girl had lost her family.
He took out his phone. “Do you remember Grandma Zhang’s number?”
Little Candy pouted. “I only remember Mommy, but Mommy knows Grandma Zhang’s phone number…” “Then tell me your mother’s number.” “137…”
Lan Yue was only at the third number when an anxious voice suddenly sounded. “Little Candy.”
When Little Candy saw Auntie Zhang rushing over with a bag, a smile appeared on her pretty and soft face. “Grandma Zhang!”
Lan Yue looked up at the middle-aged woman walking over.
Auntie Zhang ran in front of Little Candy and only let out a long sigh of relief when she saw that Little Candy was fine. Little Candy knew that she had scared Auntie Zhang by running around. She lowered her fan-like long eyelashes. “Grandma Zhang, I know I was wrong. Next time I see a pretty balloon, I won’t run around anymore.”
How could Auntie Zhang bear to blame Little Candy? The little girl was usually very obedient and sensible. She said that she knew she was wrong and would not do it again.
Holding Little Candy’s hand, Auntie Zhang looked at Lan Yue.
Lan Yue was 1.89 meters tall and was much taller than Auntie Zhang. Auntie Zhang looked up and exclaimed in her heart when she saw Lan Yue’s face.
What a handsome young man! Little Candy said softly to Auntie Zhang, “Grandma Zhang, Handsome Uncle is a good person. He just planned to call Mommy…”
Auntie Zhang nodded and thanked Lan Yue several times.
Lan Yue shook his head. “I didn’t help much. You don’t have to thank me.”
Lan Yue looked at his watch and guessed that Ji Shuang’er was about to finish buying her things. After letting Auntie Zhang and Little Candy know, he turned and left.
He had only taken two steps when the young girl ran up to him. “Handsome Uncle, can we have your number?”.
Little Candy was not wearing her phone and watch today, so she could only borrow Grandma Zhang’s phone to store Handsome Uncle’s number. Lan Yue looked at the phone Little Candy handed over and pursed his pink lips slightly. His private number would not be known so easily.
But this soft little girl in front of him, her big eyes looking at him with bright eyes… He could imagine that if he was unwilling to give her the number, the little girl might cry out in disappointment.
Somehow, he could not bear to let this little girl cry.
Lan Yue took the phone and entered his number.
Little Candy got Handsome Uncle’s phone number and pulled his fair and slender hand happily.
Lan Yue bowed.
Little Candy stood on tiptoes and quickly kissed his well-defined handsome face.
After Ji Shuang’er was done shopping, she looked at Lan Yue, who had his fingers by his face and was slightly dazed. She freed a hand and waved it in front of his eyes. “What are you thinking about?”
Lan Yue smirked slightly, a rare smile on his face. “I was kissed by a three-year-old girl.”
Ji Shuang’er was surprised. “I don’t think you like children usually. Why did you let a young girl kiss you?”
Lan Yue did not say much and only said calmly, “The little girl is quite cute.”
Lan Yue clearly had no intention of continuing. Ji Shuang’er was a sensible person. If he did not say anything, she would not ask.
They returned to the hotel.
Ji Shuang’er still had a lot to do at the art exhibition tomorrow, so she did not come out after returning to her room. Lan Yue stood in front of the French windows and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar bustling city. His deep black eyes narrowed slightly.
This city gave him many memories.
Sweetness, happiness, pain, sadness, despair…
Lan Yue closed his eyes. He took his phone, got up, and walked out of the room.
Seeing him go out, the bodyguards immediately followed.
Lan Yue raised his hand and said calmly, “No need.”
He drove away quickly.
The night gradually darkened.
A light was turned on by the roadside and his face was reflected on the car window, looking cold and indifferent.
The car ran aimlessly on the road for a few rounds before stopping at a district.
He got out of the car and stood by the flower bed, his dark eyes looking at one of the apartments.
He took out a cigarette from his pocket and was about to light it when a familiar soft voice sounded. “Handsome Uncle?”
Lan Yue looked sideways and saw the girl in the mall.
When she and Auntie Zhang came out of the convenience store, Auntie Zhang was holding a bottle of cigarettes.
“Handsome Uncle, why are you here?”
Little Candy was very surprised to see Lan Yue.
“I had a friend who stayed here before and came to take a look.”
Auntie Zhang asked, “Has your friend moved away?”
Lan Yue hummed.
“Uncle, have you had dinner? Grandma Zhang’s dinner is almost ready. Come and eat with us!”
Auntie Zhang wanted to stop Little Candy, but Little Candy had already grabbed the man’s hand. “Uncle, Grandma Zhang’s food is super delicious.” Seeing this, Auntie Zhang could not say anything else.
This person was tall and handsome. He should not be a bad person!
Lan Yue should have rejected her, but facing the young girl’s innocent and kind eyes, the rejection that was about to come out of his mouth turned into ‘okay’.
The young girl lived in a duplex building on the top floor of Tang Wu’s apartment.
The house was decorated warmly. The young girl took out a pair of men’s slippers and handed it to Lan Yue while explaining, “Handsome Uncle, don’t misunderstand. This pair of slippers belongs to my uncle.”
“I haven’t seen my Papa since I was born. Mommy said that he went to a very far place. I know that that place is heaven.”
The other would be even later.
