"I know you won't agree. I'm telling you now because I want you to make some preparations, and I know that once Gao Yang decides on something, then he will continue to do it, and in the past he has given up, but ever since your accident, Gao Yang seemed to have realized something, and felt that only by bringing happiness to you could he protect you from harm. That's why he was prepared to pursue you, not achieve his goal, and not give up." Ye Ruonan said with a smile.

"How do you know that?" Hearing Ye Ruo Lan's words, Xi Chen could not help but feel a little suspicious. Even if Gao Yang went to find Zhuang Pu Yang, his mother shouldn't be so clear about it. Could it be that she was investigating the two of them?

Seeing the skeptical look on Xi Chen's face, Ye Ruo Lan could not help but rolled her eyes and said snappily, "What are you thinking about? I did not investigate them, and this is what that little brat Zhuang Poyang told me. He wants my support so that I can shut out those pursuers."

At this point, Ye Ruo Lan had a strange expression on her face.

"You rejected, and even turned around and sold out Zhuang Pu Yang." Seeing his mother's complacent look, how could Xi Chen not know what she had done? He could not help but not know whether to laugh or cry.

Not bad, why is my daughter following just Zhuang Pu Yang, in any case you have so many pursuers, all of them are so outstanding, even Han Qixuan, this fellow did hurt you before, but now that he has repented, he should be better to you, I feel that he is also a good choice, so you have a market right now, we don't need to hang ourselves on a tilted tree. Ye Ruolan said with a loud voice.

Hearing Ye Ruo Lan's words, Xi Chen did not know whether to laugh or to cry. He had seen two silhouettes appear. One of them was the tilted tree that Ye Ruo Lan had spoken of.

Gao Yang could not help but laugh out loud, "Aunt Lan, you are way too insightful. You know that this person is a crooked tree, so you must properly persuade Xi Chen not to let her hang herself on a crooked book." Hearing Gao Yang's words, Ye Ruo Lan replied. The first person she saw was not Gao Yang, but Zhuang Yang Pu, who was standing beside him. This left Ye Ruo Lan dumbfounded.

She did not expect herself to say something about Zhuang Poyang, but the other party immediately appeared in front of her without making a sound and had heard her words.

Thinking of this, even though Ye Ruo Lan's mental strength was deep, she couldn't help but blush like a cooked crab.

"Greetings, Aunt Lan." Zhuang Pu Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Then, his expression suddenly straightened as he bowed towards Ye Ruo Lan, making everyone burst out laughing.

Since Gao Yang had returned, he naturally wanted to welcome him. When he thought about this, Xi Chen decided to treat him.

After booking a room at New Moon Tower, the few of them went over. Finally, Li Xiaoyu and Niu also appeared. The six of them ate happily in the private room.

All the worries had disappeared, leaving only the happiness of friends.

However, this happiness did not last long before the door was kicked open. Huang Ailan walked in with a group of people. When she saw the people in the room, a look of deep hatred appeared on her face.

"I was wondering who it was. So it was the second young master who was treating us. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have kicked the door open." The leader was a young man who appeared to be around twenty years old. However, he was hugging Huang Ailan with a proud expression on his face.

He glanced at them and said indifferently, "Scram now."

Facing this young man, he didn't look the least bit nervous. Instead, he looked like an elder reprimanding his own juniors. The youth also felt this attitude, his face was angry, and his face revealed a sneer, "Zhuang Poyang, what are you pretending to be for, other people are afraid of you, but I, Lu Hu, am not afraid of you, isn't it just a manor lord? Do you really think you're powerful enough to destroy the Pan Family?

"F * ck off."

These were the words of Gao Yang. He was just enjoying the meal, yet he was destroyed by a group of scum. This caused everyone to feel depressed.

"Hmph, scram. I don't need you to kick me out. I also need to leave, but I want to see what that naked female protagonist looks like to be able to make the second young master of the Zhuang family fall for her." When he saw Xi Chen, a hint of infatuation flashed across Lu Hu's eyes. He had seen the picture of Xi Chen on the internet, but he did not expect that in reality, Xi Chen was so captivating that he would feel intoxicated.

Looking at Lu Hu's expression, Huang Ailan started to panic a little. After her divorce from Zhuang Chenghao, it was naturally not that easy for her to maintain her luxurious lifestyle, so Huang Ailan had fallen.

Lu Hu wasn't the first, but he was the richest. If Lu Hu liked that little girl Xi Chen, his interest in her would decrease. When that time came, the amount of money she would be able to get would be very little.

If it wasn't for this woman, she wouldn't be at this stage. If it wasn't for Xi Chen, she would still be the eldest young mistress of the Zhuang family.

Thinking of this, Huang Ailan looked at Xi Chen with a gaze full of hatred.

However, she did not dare to say anything. Huang Ailan had already figured out the Land Rover's personality and knew that this man was very tyrannical. He was not allowed to interrupt others when they were talking.

Huang Ailan was smart, and the others weren't stupid either. They all watched Lu Hu's performance, wanting to see what kind of conflict he and Zhuang Pu Yang would have.

Just as he was about to flare up, Gao Yang pulled him back. Lu Hu was the heir to the Lu family, and was stronger than the Zhuang family. If they were to clash, it would not be good news for the present Zhuang family.

The manor had just made a big move, so it was no longer suitable for them to continue fighting.

But at this moment, Ye Ruo Lan stood up and walked towards Lu Hu, making him frown.

"Whap."

A resounding slap landed on Land Rover's face, causing everyone to be stunned.

"Lu Hao taught you like this. You didn't even know to greet him when you saw your elder being present. You are convinced that I am going to hit you." Ye Ruolan asked.

Lu Hu was stunned. A cold light flashed through his eyes, but he didn't dare to flare up.

The Lu family was all about etiquette. Although Ye Ruonan was Zhuang Wannian's second marriage, she could indeed be said to be a elder of the Land Rover. This big slap Lu Hu had nothing to say.

With a respectful expression, Lu Hu said in a serious tone, "I'm sorry, Aunt Lan. I was wrong. You were right."

Lu Hu apologized and looked very foolish. If he apologized because of the elder, then he would definitely be despised by others. But Lu Hu could not, because he was a member of the Lu Family, and was very strict on etiquette. Although this time it looked like Lu Hu had suffered a loss, it had helped the Lu Family gain its reputation.

Zhuang Poyang and Gao Yang looked at each other. Initially, they still had some contempt for the Land Rover, but now, they had completely given up on it. To be able to tolerate such a person and endure such a thing, he was definitely not an ordinary person.

Maybe, in the future, Lu Hu will be a very strong opponent for Zhuang Pu Yang.

Ye Ruo Lan was a little surprised. She thought that she would get angry instead. At that time, even if she made the first move, it would be the Lu family's fault. But from the looks of it, Lu Hu had made the best choice. Instead, it gave her a reputation of bullying the weak.

However, Ye Ruo Lan didn't mind having such a reputation. As long as it could protect the child she cared about, she wouldn't mind no matter how bad her reputation was.

This was the instinct of a mother and an elder to protect their child.

"Since you know you are wrong, you should get out. Aunt Lan is not an unreasonable person." Perhaps if they continued the investigation, she could make the other party do many actions that would make them lose face, but that was definitely not something they would try. Not only was it of no benefit to them, but it had also created a powerful enemy for nothing.

Lu Hu nodded and said with a smile, "Auntie, take your time."

Then, he left. This confused Xi Chen. Was there something wrong with this man's head? He had come in full fury, yet he had been slapped by his mother and then left. Was he here on purpose to get beaten up?

When he thought here, even Xi Chen did not understand.

However, Zhuang Poyang and Gao Yang, their eyes were full of seriousness. With such a young tiger in the Lu family, they would have some fun in the future.

"You must be a character in the future due to your unbridled and ambitious nature. Yang, you must be careful." Ye Ruo Lan reminded.

Zhuang Pu Yang nodded, expressing that he knew. Looking at the other party's performance, he already knew what kind of person he was. It was just like what Ye Ruolan said, he was a man with an overbearing personality, and in the future, he would definitely be someone extraordinary.

For such a person to become an enemy was a huge headache for anyone. Zhuang Poyang also felt a headache but he did not care. He was more confident in himself, believing that he could defeat all the enemies in the world.

This was not arrogance, but confidence in his own strength.

It seems that Zhuang Pu Yang's gaze was filled with satisfaction towards his spirit. Ye Ruo Lan was quite satisfied with it as she would not be Zhuang Pu Yang if she were to see such a powerful enemy.

One could imagine that when Zhuang Pu Yang realized that he had an opponent, he would work even harder, because he had to suppress the opponent. This way, Zhuang Pu Yang would become even stronger, which was definitely a good thing for Xi Chen.

For the sake of their children, their parents could think of any method, as long as they could live happily. Ye Ruolan was such a woman. For Xi Chen, she had even started playing tricks.

"Actually, Aunt Lan should have slapped him hard just now. It seems like she has relieved her hatred." Li Xiaoyu said with a smile, as if she wanted to stir up trouble.

She rolled her eyes at Li Xiaoyu and said, "Shut up. Do you think Land Rover is that easy to hit? This time, Auntie is taking a risk."

Hearing the last words, Li Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at him and snappily said, "Alright, you're the only smart one in the world. I know."
