That delicate little face almost blinded Ling Chen's eyes.

"That won't do, even if you don't bring me there, I will still have to follow you! I have to tell you that you, Ling Chen, already have an owner!" Zhang Xiao Xiao laughed with a face full of pride.

An Nan sat in the front row of the carriage, wanting to pull the curtain behind him.

At the same time, the temperature of the carriage would increase, causing An Nan's pressure.

At the same time, he couldn't help but complain about why he was so pitiful and wanted to be the driver.

The president's perverted possessiveness was not to be trifled with.

What Ling Chen wanted to participate in was Lin City's Ruan Lao's birthday.

The relationship between Ling Chen and his sixtieth birthday was real.

Speaking of this Ruan Lao, he was truly a legendary figure.

He was clearly a master of culture, so any painting could be sold at an astronomical price. However, this person had an innate talent in economics, and because he coincidentally got acquainted with Ling Chen at that time, he taught him a lot of things.

To be honest, the Ling Family's atmosphere didn't contain any good children. Although Ling Chen was very capable in the beginning, his personality was very cold and violent, and he was even very cruel when it came to handling certain things. And the reason why Ling Chen turned from a fierce person into someone who could teach them a set of rules and regulations, even though it was very cold, was because he had the guidance of the Ruan Lao.

As an artist, Ruan Lao had actually taught Ling Chen many business methods, developing his talent in business, allowing Ling Chen to gradually become more perfect himself through continuous training. He had also learned to cultivate the body, nurture the character, and plan, which was countless times better than before.

Although they were friends, in Ling Chen's heart, he viewed the Ruan Lao as his master, elders, and even relatives.

In his mind, the Ruan Lao was much stronger than the people from the Ling Family who had malicious intentions.

Especially Ling Guoyuan, who was not worthy of being called a father at all.

Ruan Lao's wife passed away a long time ago, leaving behind only her son. Right now, she has been out of the country starting a business for many years, and has been rejected many times when she wanted to bring him out.

He was already so old, so he did not want to continue tormenting her.

As for Ling Chen, he could be considered one of the few relatives he had in the country.

Even though Ruan Lao had retired in the past few years, his fame was still there, and many people were proud to have interacted with him. This time's birthday, according to his character, would definitely not be arranged carelessly, but his son, who lived abroad all year round, felt deeply ashamed of himself, and ignored his objections to organize this banquet, it could also be considered as the old gramps' birthday celebration for the rest of his life.

After knowing all this, Zhang Xiao Xiao started to feel a little apprehensive when he was facing the old man again, and even had a feeling that he wanted to see the parents. As he got closer and closer to his destination, he actually started to sweat.

"Heh, nervous?" Ling Chen laughed beside his ear.

Zhang Xiao Xiao subconsciously straightened his chest. How could anyone see that he was nervous, wasn't he just waiting to be mocked?

"I'm not nervous."

Ling Chen found it funny when he saw Zhang Xiao Xiao's blurry eyes, the little girl's mouth was actually quite hard.

"Why do you think I woke you up so early in the morning?" Ling Chen laughed.

Oh, that's right, the current her is no longer that reckless little girl from before. Thinking about her stunning appearance before leaving this morning, Zhang Xiao Xiao felt more at ease.

"Moreover, Ruan Lao is very easy to get along with. You will like him."

Regarding this point, Ling Chen was extremely convinced.

Only An Nan, who was in the front row, almost choked himself to death when he heard this. Then did those nobles in City B not even dare to make a sound after being dug out by a ghost?

One had to know that the old man was stubborn like a donkey when he decided on something. He would probably only show a little friendliness in front of Lingtong and his son.

But An Nan could only silently ridicule all of this in his heart, if he really said it out loud, it would create panic for Zhang Xiao Xiao, and An Nan believed that he would be lying in the hospital next second.

Because they were close, they were passionate.

However, this old man Ruan Shen was proud, and even her warmth was hidden so that no one would notice.

When Ling Chen got off the car, he saw an auspicious old man wearing a Tang suit and leaning on a walking stick walking slowly from the other side towards the banquet's entrance. His footsteps were steady and steady, but his pace was extremely slow.

The young man who was following behind the old man looked at the old man helplessly, then he shifted his gaze of anticipation to Ling Chen who had just got off the car.

Ling Chen nodded his head towards the man, he could not help but find it funny, the old man must have been waiting at the door for him for who knows how long, and now he was starting to act cool and arrogant, but he did not quickly walk over to the old man the moment he got off the car, but rather moved to the other side to help Zhang Xiao Xiao open the car door, and helped her down, before pulling her hand over to walk over.

There were a lot of people coming to the banquet at this time, the moment the two of them appeared, it quickly attracted their attention. It was different from the past, this time, all the gazes from all around were easily ignored by Zhang Xiao Xiao who was shy.

~ Is this the Ruan Lao? It was clear that the direction Uncle was taking her in was also towards the old man.

The old man who was initially walking in front of him indifferently, had waited for Ling Chen for a long time yet did not come. Logically speaking, he should have come by now, could it be that he did not see him?

He frowned as his fingers moved the thumb ring as if nothing had happened. Just as he was about to arrive at the entrance of the banquet, he heard a familiar voice calling out to him just as he was about to turn around.

"It's been so long since we last met, your complexion is getting better and better!" Ling Chen brought Zhang Xiao Xiao and walked to the front of the Ruan Lao and stopped, smiling as he spoke.

"Stinking brat, every time we meet this sentence, can't you change it?" Ruan Lao looked pale, but there was a cheerful look in his eyes.

"Oh? Is there anything else you need me to praise? " Ling Chen's smile became even brighter.

As for the Ruan Lao, he was exceptionally shocked.

In the beginning, he had only seen the girl beside the man. Until now, nothing Ling Chen said was important anymore.

From a glance, one could tell that this little girl had a soft and kind personality. She must be very sensible and obedient. When she smiled, she would feel that it was really sweet.
