Chapter 1152: 1128. Two Legs or Three Legs
After dinner, everyone either went for a walk or did their own thing, while Qin Yun and He Kuang dragged Lun Chuan upstairs:
"Be honest, how did you two beco a couple?!"
"Exactly! Chuan Er, this isn’t like you! You shouldn’t be this way..."
The two brothers stared at him intently.
Lun Chuan, now oddly calm, said, "She has a really good temperant and personality. I felt like I’d regret missing out on her."
A good temperant and personality?!
Qin Yun couldn’t agree. Even though they’ve only been here for two short days, it was obvious that Song Tan had a commanding presence at ho!
"She can even lift a pig!"
He Kuang emphasized, "If you date her, I’m afraid when I see you next year, you won’t be writing books anymore but farming instead! You can’t beat her, so you can only listen to her."
"Exactly!" Qin Yun was equally shocked, "If you don’t farm well, you’ll get thrashed three tis a day!"
Lun Chuan: ...
He forced a smile: "You trust , right? I can let you get thrashed three tis a day right now."
Qin Yun was trembling with anger: "Okay, okay, so now you’re putting romance above friendship, huh?! What’s so good about her? Why defend her so quickly after just starting to date?"
Lun Chuan beca cautious: "Watch your tone when you say that!"
Don’t sound like a whining spouse.
Besides, good or bad, there should be a priority between friends and girlfriends, right? Being brave for a friend makes you noble, but don’t sacrifice what’s necessary to leave the world!
But jokes aside, Lun Chuan spoke honestly: "I feel Song Tan gives a great sense of security, and she’s confident enough to improve life, even if it’s bad she can quickly bounce back. My life has been monotonous, without the courage to try sothing new."
"So, she’s guiding , and that’s good."
Well, it seems brother really is smitten, why make trouble as villains?
"Ugh." Thinking positively, Qin Yun could only nod: "Being with a fairy, it’s right for us brothers to be content— but you, um, , cautionary tale!"
"Brother, I dare not have a single thought now, and you should uphold gentlemanliness too! Otherwise, if a man falls from grace, I estimate Song Tan wouldn’t just let you go, but make you lose a couple of limbs..."
He worriedly added: "You know, she can afford it."
This remark was obviously quite shocking, leaving He Kuang speechless with an open mouth for a long ti before closing it again.
On the other hand, Lun Chuan looked peculiar. He glanced at the earnest Qin Yun, then at Song Tan at the door:
"You heard everything?"
Song Tan smiled with a teasing tone: "Heard it all! Now I know what true ntors and companions are—Lun Chuan, you have two good friends!"
The words were there, but why did the tone sound so odd?
Qin Yun’s heart pounded, completely unaware when she arrived at the door. He glared angrily at Lun Chuan: why didn’t you give a heads up when soone arrived? Such a scheming man! Using our bad talk to highlight yourself?
But in the next mont, Song Tan laughed: "Seventh Uncle is roasting peppered crispy yellow beans tonight, they’re waiting by the stove to eat sothing warm, aren’t you coming?"
Good grief!
Crispy yellow beans!
Qin Yun and He Kuang instantly jumped up, wondering why they ca to babble here during wonderful midnight snack ti! Could a man like Lun Chuan really suffer?
If that’s the case...
"Chuan Er, think carefully! Soone like Song Tan, if you miss out, you wouldn’t be able to find her even carrying a lantern at midnight... We’re heading down first!"
The rapid steps on the stairs outside echoed louder and farther. anwhile, the room grew increasingly silent until Lun Chuan sowhat awkwardly stood up:
"Let’s go downstairs too."
After all, he was at Song Tan’s Ho, if the two stayed alone indoors, it would feel a bit strange.
"There are lots of people downstairs!" Song Tan closed the door gently behind her and leisurely walked in, curiously looking at the suitcase in the corner:
"This suitcase is quite old, do you often travel far?"
Lun Chuan thought for a mont: "Sotis I used to travel, recently for so work."
"Then why go to Ning City? For tourism or passing through? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have saved soone on the overpass."
Lun Chuan sighed: "My mom probably shared about her ex-husband? He found out last year that his younger daughter wasn’t his, and he never had a son, then he turned to my mom, and got so info on ... does listening to this bore you?"
"No, no!" Song Tan shook her head instantly, eyes sparkling: "Tell
more, slowly, with details!"
She sat next to Lun Chuan and reiterated, "I love listening!"
Lun Chuan: ...
"Anyway, he’s Zhou Yongzhi, he married several true loves when young, but only the second daughter is his. He favors sons, believing his vast inheritance can only be passed on to a son..."
"So soon you’ll inherit billions? Can you buy a helicopter? I can build another helipad outside the yard!"
Song Tan got excited—who can refuse a novel’s millionaire plot unfolding in real life?
Lun Chuan sighed helplessly: "First off, he’s not dead yet. His mad connection with
is thinking my appearance has potential, which could increase his assets."
Song Tan sat back in disappointnt: "Oh..."
Then comforted him: "At least he has good taste, knows you look good. Rest assured, you’re worth a fortune in my heart!"
She spoke sweet nothings effortlessly, Lun Chuan had learned from a day’s test to handle it calmly.
Now he figured his worth—worth a fortune, quite a lot by today’s standards.
Back to the topic.
"In any case," Lun Chuan glanced at Song Tan’s little expression and suddenly smiled:
"He doesn’t have billions in assets. My last drive to Ning City was to investigate... fixed assets are four old district houses, all in mortgage status. Savings might be a million, the rest is debts."
Song Tan couldn’t believe it!
After all, it turns out, what Lun Chuan might inherit, deducting debts, isn’t more than his monthly manuscript fee?
"The day you had your accident, I’d already asked soone to give him so work. Next he’ll get busier, probably soon won’t bother , then I’d planned to return to the Imperial City..."
Unexpectedly, as soon as I hit the overpass, several cars collided in a chain ahead, the front vehicle was hit multiple tis, violently spun mid-road, finally flipped up sending smoke.
That’s when I saw a girl in the back holding tightly onto her bag, desperately clawing at the window, her vulnerable plea for help...
At this point, Lun Chuan suddenly reached out and touched Song Tan’s hair: "I rember when pulling you out, a large patch of blood was stuck to your hair, the blood loss was terrifying... did you recover for long?"
The hair within his palm, smooth and dense, showing no trace of the vulnerability it had once held. anwhile, Lun Chuan lanted:
"Between life and death, I completely let go of people from my past who shouldn’t matter. And looking at you now, you’re vastly different from back then."
He leaned forward, wrapped his warm, strong arm around Song Tan’s waist and back, and softly said:
"Sotis, when you think about it, fate is truly magical."
