Because it was dinner time, by the time they arrived, Qingfeng Restaurant was almost full.
The two of them chose a seat by the window and sat down.
Sitting there, they could see the beautiful night view of the riverside.
However, Lan Xiu did not expect that just as they sat down, a surprised voice came from behind them
“Lan Xiu, is that you?”
This voice…
Who else could it be but Dongfang Liuyun?
Lan Xiu quickly turned his head and saw Qi Lei holding Dongfang Liuyun’s hand as they walked over.
Dongfang Liuyun was already quite heavily pregnant. Because they were twins, her belly looked huge, but she was thin. In addition, she was wearing a large black shirt, so it was not obvious even if she pulled it a little, her long hair was already tied up. Qi Lei seemed to be watching over her very cautiously.
“Liuyun! Qi Lei! You guys are here?”
Lan Xiu was a little surprised and quickly greeted them.
Dongfang Liuyun’s beautiful face flashed a warmness, especially when she saw the stunning Leng Xinran across from Lan Xiu.
“I got off work a little late, and the weather has been pretty good these few days, so I asked him to accompany me out for a walk. He also came over for dinner. Do you mind if we sit together? This is…”
Dongfang Liuyun exchanged a look with Qi Lei, who was beside him. The couple smiled knowingly.
Lan Xiu was stunned for a moment before he got up and moved to sit on Leng Xinran’s side. He left the seat opposite to Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun.
“Take a seat! This is Leng Xinran. Xinran, this is President Qi Lei from Tai Yu Corporation, and Dongfang Liuyun. We’re very good friends.”
Lan Xiu gave a simple explanation. The emotions in his eyes were a little complicated. Leng Xinran turned her gaze and glanced at him. After a moment of silence, she seemed to be able to catch something. She did not mind greeting them.
“Hello, I am Leng Xinran, President Qi, and Miss Dongfang. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
“So it’s Miss Leng. You don’t have to be so polite. Call him Q Lei and call me Liuyun. We are very close friends with Lan Xiu. There’s no need to be too distant.”
Dongfang Liuyun spoke sincerely at this moment. She seemed to have vaguely sensed the faint coldness on Leng Xinran.
When did Lan Xiu make such a friend?
Was she his girlfriend?
All these years, she had never seen Lan Xiu specially bring a woman over for a meal like this. Today’s situation made her feel a little incredulous.
However, a woman like Leng Xinran seemed very cold and polite. Even when Lan Xiu helped her serve the soup, she only nodded politely to express her gratitude.
Dongfang Liuyun also quietly observed Lan Xiu. Lan Xiu seemed to find it very normal and did not feel too awkward.
Leng Xinran picked up the meat in the soup and quietly put it into Lan Xiu’s bowl. Everything seemed very normal and there was nothing unnatural about it.
At the table, Qi Lei was chatting happily with Dongfang Liuyun and Lan Xiu. Even Leng Xinran did not say much from the beginning to the end, only when Dongfang Liuyun asked her a question, did she answer. She did not interrupt their conversation later on.
After dinner, Lan Xiu was going to send Leng Xinran back. Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun planned to take a walk on the nearby pedestrian street.
“Hey, Qi Lei, what do you think is going on between Lan Xiu and this Leng Xinran? How come I’ve never heard of this Leng Xinran before?”
Dongfang Liuyun could not help but ask after holding it in for the whole night.
Qi Lei raised his handsome eyebrows and put his arm around her shoulder as he replied, “I’m not sure what’s going on, but I’ve heard of this Miss Leng.”
“What’s up?”
Dongfang Liuyun became even more curious.
“If this Leng Xinran is really the Miss Leng of the Leng family, then if I remember correctly, she seems to be an undertaker and a grave keeper. It’s said that her fate isn’t very good. Many people keep a respectful distance from her. I wonder how she and Lan Xiu met?”
Qi Lei was also puzzled.
Dongfang Liuyun was silent for a moment. After thinking for a moment, he replied, “Maybe it’s a business relationship. You should pay attention to it later. I find that he’s become more open recently.”
“I don’t think there’s a rhythm to their relationship.”
Qi Lei did not hide it at all.
“There’s nothing wrong with showing some concern.”
Dongfang Liuyun took a deep breath and said this calmly.
Only then did Qi Lei nod and hug her shoulders. “Missus is right. I will do as you say!”
He was now doing everything according to her wishes, afraid that she would be wronged in some way. Even Zhou Zimo said that he, Qi Lei, had become a loyal dog of a husband.
However, Qi Lei felt that there was nothing wrong with this. In any case, he was happy to dote on her and pamper her. What was wrong with that?
…
The night was very charming. What was even more rare was that there was a faint crescent moon in the night sky today. The moonlight was very cold, but the falling frost made people feel that it was quiet and beautiful.
The cold-hearted apartment was in the old city district. When they returned, the car could not enter. They had to park in the alley outside and then walk through a very, very long bluestone road.
Lan Xiu had sent her back on this road several nights ago. Although the lights in the alley were very bright, the figure on the ground looked a little cold.
He took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders. Leng Xinran struggled unhappily and wanted to refuse, but Lan Xiu’s gentle voice was heard. “Drape it over your shoulders. It’s still a little cold at night. It’s easy to catch a cold.”
Leng Xinran slowed down her footsteps, but she was startled for a moment. She pulled the jacket on her shoulder and glanced at him, “Thank you. Actually, you don’t have to send me off. I’ve walked this road countless times.”
“Let’s go. This is the old city district. Although the city district is quite mature, these houses are quite old, so it’s easy for others to sneak in. That row of houses is rented by foreigners. Aren’t you worried about yourself by yourself?”
Lan Xiu looked around. He had wanted to open his mouth several times, but he swallowed his words back. Now, he finally said it with great difficulty.
“I’m a level nine black belt in taekwondo. Even Qin Su can’t beat me. What kind of danger do you think I’d be in?” Leng Xin said indifferently, but there was not much expression on her face.
Level nice black belt?
Qin Su!
Lan Xiu naturally had some impression of her. Zhou Zimo’s wife, who had been in the army before, was a very good friend of Leng Xinran!
So she was actually like this…
No wonder she had the guts to not only be a mortician, but also be a grave keeper in the middle of the night, accompanying the dead and cold gravestones…
