"This choir performance is from Jingwen Experintal Primary School, and Dr. Ou isn’t a local, so she’s not familiar with this school. It happens to be the best primary school in our city.
My uncle is the vice-principal at this school, and every year, people practically break down his doorstep trying to secure a spot for their children."
"..."
Doctor Fang was there, continually fawning over her and occasionally casting provocative glances at ng Lang.
ng Lang couldn’t help but admire the effort.
The man sure had done his howork.
Crucially, while introducing the program, he "casually" showcased his character, family background, and downtown real estate—"accidentally" revealing, flaunting the superiority of being a native of the bustling Jiangnan tropolis.
Such talent!
Looking at Ou Lu, she maintained an awkward yet polite smile, nodding and agreeing from ti to ti, but she seed distracted and rather helpless.
That made ng Lang furrow his brows.
You say you’re pursuing a girl, and that’s none of ng Lang’s business.
Who doesn’t have the right to seek happiness?
It’s just that on a crucial day like today, your constant buzzing could potentially distract Ou Lu from absorbing key information in ’Chronicle of the X-war,’ what then?
You’re free to date, but not at the expense of soone else’s learning and progress!
This could affect her entire life!
ng Lang couldn’t help but worry that maybe his intrusion as the proverbial butterfly had threatened Doctor Fang, causing him to strut like a "peacock" and hence, rendering Ou Lu’s watching of the program futile...
Wouldn’t her destiny be back where it started?
Then his presence today wasn’t to gain an advantage; he was outright taking lives!
The possibility of him being a hindrance was real, just like with Cheng Biao and Ah Xing.
He had intended to spare them from prison, but what happened?
His actions directly led to their demise, and he even lost a pair of legs in the process.
The weirdness and unpredictability of destiny ant that ng Lang couldn’t just arrange things as he wished!
In life’s complicated ga, there are always fragnts that seem trivial at the mont but actually have a significant impact...
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, ng Lang’s expression suddenly beca grave.
"Dr. Ou, how’s your aunt been feeling lately?"
For the first ti since they sat down, ng Lang initiated a conversation with Ou Lu, startling both listeners.
He knows my mom?
He knows her mom?
How is that possible! X2
"Uh... quite well," Ou Lu responded blankly.
"That’s good. Oh, by the way, has your aunt been introducing you to potential suitors again? Is she still only interested in local sons-in-law?"
"Eh? How... how do you know that?"
Ou Lu was completely dumbfounded.
And so was Doctor Fang.
What? Only interested in local sons-in-law?
This sentence, "officially certified" by Ou Lu, struck him like an arrow to the heart.
"Haha! You’re an only child, it’s understandable that your aunt feels that way.
Dr. Ou is so good, just too filial, always listens to her aunt."
ng Lang glanced at Doctor Fang next to him.
Mm! Background check confird, a screen full of grey and white indeed.
Finally, there was silence in the world.
Thank goodness, the information extracted from those vague, speculative "matchmaking" mories in his mind were indeed accurate...
ng Lang heaved a sigh of relief.
However, Ou Lu was now totally bewildered, falling into self-doubt.
Knowing her, knowing her mother, that was one thing, but how could he be so clear about her preferences in a partner?
Why?
Why did she have absolutely no impression of him?
This made no sense!
"You... what exactly..."
"Shush! Don’t talk, watch the show seriously!" ng Lang said earnestly.
Ou Lu: "..."
I guessed the beginning, but not the ending.
So... when you started talking, you weren’t really trying to help out?
You just wanted us to keep it down?
With one sentence, ng Lang had ended a pointless conversation.
Ou Lu was initially curious about ng Lang’s identity, but gradually got drawn into the program, or at least that was what it seed like on the surface.
As for Doctor Fang, now utterly deflated...
Given that Ou Lu would still be going on blind dates in Wu City two years later, it was highly likely it hadn’t worked out.
So, I wasn’t breaking up a love match, just helping him face reality sooner...
It wasn’t long before...
"Next, please welco the second grade, class three students from Qing Song Primary School, as they present a science-thed drama — ’Chronicle of the X-war’!"
ng Lang’s eyes lit up, and he sat up straight imdiately.
Here it cos!
In the theater, a woman’s voiceover started pouring out from the surround sound speakers.
[Our bodies are like a vast city, where every cell is a factory within the city.
Only when the factories work normally can the city function properly...]
[Here is the lung area, where the type II ACE2 cell factories in the alveoli are responsible for controlling the normal expansion of alveolar volu, eting the body’s oxygen needs for daily activities.]
Then Xiao Yu, dressed in black with dark thed makeup, slowly walked out...
Mm! The costu and props are indeed much better than at the audition... So cute!
ng Lang quickly took out his phone, adjusted the focus, and "click-click" took several photos.
Ou Lu looked on strangely at ng Lang, who had just been lounging in his seat bored with the show, suddenly perk up, sit straight, and enthusiastically snap away at the children on stage.
This guy is really odd.
