Seeing that the heavy porcelain cup was about to smash the back of Song Lan's head, He Chaozhi suddenly appeared and stood up behind Song Lan.
The porcelain cup hit his right shoulder blade hard, and He Chaozhi groaned.
Song Lan turned her head in surprise, and her face turned pale when she saw He Chaozhi covering his shoulders.
"He Chaozhi, are you okay?"
He Chaozhi raised his head, his jaw tensed, as if he was enduring pain.
But he quickly relaxed his brows, hugged Song Lan tightly in his arms, and breathed softly, as if sighing and rejoicing.
"As long as you're fine, I don't feel any pain at all, really."
"Are you crazy? You have just recovered from the old injury in the previous car accident, and you are treating me as a shield again..."
When Song Lan thought about the car accident that day and the scene of He Chaozhi falling in front of him, his heart felt as if he had been pierced by a needle, and his back was so painful that he felt chills.
She bit her lip, grabbed the milk tea on the table, and walked to Wang Juan.
Wang Juan: "Song Lan, what do you want to do? Are you...are you crazy!?"
Wang Juan's voice gradually became broken and harsh.
Song Lan held the milk tea cup and poured every drop of the milk tea onto Wang Juan's head. Finally, he shook the empty cup and splashed out the two missing drops of liquid.
She looked coldly at the embarrassed woman in front of her, and the corners of her mouth curved cruelly: "Wang Juan, I don't mean it, do you really think I am a vegetarian?"
Wang Juan's face was washed by the milk tea and she was trembling all over. She wiped her cheeks desperately, but the milk tea was sticky. The more she wiped it, the more syrup became on her hands.
"Song Lan, you bitch, I will definitely kill you."
"It's hard to say who will die first."
He Chaozhi grabbed Song Lan's wrist, protected the woman behind him, and glanced coldly at the crazy woman: "——Your name is Wang Juan?"
Wang Juan stopped wiping and rolled her eyes.
Although she didn't know who this man was, Wang Juan only knew that he was very good-looking and well-dressed. At first glance, he seemed to be either rich or noble.
While Wang Juan was jealous of Song Lan's good luck in meeting so many gentle and wealthy handsome men, she pretended to be weak at the same time.
"Sir, have you misunderstood me? It was obviously Song Lan who was unilaterally violent towards me. She slapped me and poured milk tea on me... Don't be deceived by her innocent appearance!"
Wang Juan was talking loudly. Not far away, the supervisor reported the matter to the minister and was walking over anxiously.
When he saw He Chaozhi, he trembled all over and his face turned pale: "Hey, Mr. He?"
His legs softened and he almost knelt in front of He Chaozhi: "Mr. He, what kind of wind has brought you here?"
He pushed Wang Juan away and wanted to bow ninety degrees to He Chaozhi: "It's all our people's ignorance. Mr. He, I'm really sorry!"
Wang Juan saw that the supervisors respected He Chaozhi so much, and she got three clues: "Supervisor, who is he? Mr. He, which Mr. He is he?"
The supervisor said in a huff, "Who else could it be, Young Master He? There is only one Young Master He in the entire Ye City and the He family!"
Wang Juan felt like she was struck by five thunders, her body trembled and she fell to the ground, the milk tea dripping from her hair splashing at her feet.
Crazy, really crazy.
She just... actually hit the famous man in Night City, He Chaozhi, Mr. He?
He Chaozhi gently brushed off the dust on his right shoulder, smiling as before, but his eyes were surprisingly cold.
"You Jun's employees really need to be trained and trained. I will tell Mr. Jun later and ask him to close the door and beat the dog so that others don't laugh at them."
After saying that, he took Song Lan's hand and glanced at everyone present with a calm and coercive gaze.
No one among dozens of people dared to look at him.
"Song Lan is my girlfriend. If you want to touch her, you have to ask me first if I am willing. Wang Juan——"
He Chaozhi chuckled and called Wang Juan's name, biting his molar teeth hard.
"Waiting to receive my lawyer's letter. I guarantee that He's legal department will uphold its usual standards and sue you until you are bankrupt and get out of Night City."
After leaving these words, He Chaozhi left with Song Lan.
Wang Juan sat on the ground blankly, and her colleagues and supervisors all stayed away from her like the god of plague.
Who dares to get close to the person who offended Mr. He and whom he ordered to die?
The supervisor secretly shook his head: "Wang Juan, please wish yourself well!"
Song Lan walked far away and could still hear Wang Juan's cries.
…
After leaving Jun, Song Lan returned to KEO and continued to serve as president.
KEO colleagues expressed a warm welcome to her return.
When he got off work, Song Lan sat in He Chaozhi's car and gently tapped the steering wheel: "Today you go to the nursing home with me."
He Chaozhi knew that she had the habit of visiting her father in the nursing home every day, so he drove there.
Song Lan pulled He Chaozhi out of the car, intertwined their fingers, and together they came to Song Zi's office.
He Chaozhi raised his eyebrows and wondered: "Why don't you go see your uncle today?"
Song Lan smiled back, with a gentle and decisive expression: "You will know in a moment, and I will give it a try today."
She raised her hand and knocked on the door lightly.
After three clicks, Song Zi opened the door.
"Lanlan, come..."
Song Zi saw clearly the tall man next to Song Lan, and her beautiful face suddenly twisted.
She lowered her eyes, used all her strength to restrain her anger, and looked at Song Lan.
"Song Lan, what do you mean by bringing him here?"
"Auntie." Song Lan said softly.
She was silent for a moment, her eyes were as gentle as waves, and she raised her lips and said, "I want to be with Chao Zhi. You are my only relative besides my father, so I want to tell you."
A hint of disbelief flashed across Song Zi's face. She sneered and pointed at He Chaozhi: "Song Lan, are you crazy? Do you know how much the He family owes you, your father, and me? You want to be with He Chaozhi?
You are betraying me and your father, how could you do that!?"
Song Lan lightly lowered her eyelashes, showing deep tiredness: "I'm sorry, aunt, I know my sin is unforgivable, but I can't betray my heart."
"So you are going to betray me!? Song Lan, I have raised you for so many years, and this is how you repay me!"
Song Zi collapsed completely. She stumbled back to the office and pushed everything on the table to the ground.
He Chaozhi frowned, fearing that the furious Song Zi would hurt Song Lan, so he took a step forward to say something.
Song Lan held him back.
Song Lan pushed He Chaozhi out the door, walked in, and gently closed the door.
Looking at the staggering Song Zi with warm eyes: "Aunt, I know you feel sorry for me and are afraid that I will get hurt when I am with He Chaozhi. But I really like He Chaozhi. I have never lived for myself in this life.
This time, only this time... Auntie, please put aside your prejudice against He Chaozhi and help us, okay?"
Song Lan said tiredly: "The He family is indeed sorry for us, but Chao Zhi was not even ten years old at the time, and he and I were both the most innocent people in this incident..."
