Rebirth of the Lord of the Dark City

"Well, uncle will rest first after returning home, and discuss with An Zicheng after dinner." An Ran said.

"Who is An Zicheng?" The surname should be An Ran's relatives, but the head of the Chester family doesn't know exactly who it is.

"An Ran's father." Seeing his father's doubts, Ling Che explained.Patriarch Chester nodded. Although he was curious why An Ran called his father by his name directly, he didn't ask further.

The car drove smoothly into the Eucalyptus Villa area. Anran entertained Patriarch Chester like a normal host. The guest room he arranged was the master bedroom on the second floor, that is, the one next to Ling Che's room. Probably in order not to disturb Anran, this room The bodyguards had no choice in tacit understanding.

Ling Che went in to help Patriarch Chester clean up, or watch Patriarch Chester clean up?An Ran didn't know, anyway, he didn't go in to disturb, An Ran went downstairs to ask someone to prepare lunch, today it was Fan Qi'an's turn to cook, in fact, An Ran didn't have any arrangements, anyway, they have people from all over the world here, and the dishes they eat are both Chinese and Western dishes every day , An Ran just asked him to prepare a few more western dishes.

"Wang, do you want to eat separately at noon?" Adolf asked as a representative. Wang and his boyfriend's family are having dinner. Is it not good for ten of them to be there?Although they are not real bodyguards but members of the Dark City, An Ran is their master regardless of their status.

"No." It's just a meal. We used to eat together every day. There is no need to change because of the arrival of Patriarch Chester. Anyway, if you want to talk about something, you can go to the living room or study on the third floor after dinner. It's not like other people do business. Talk at the wine table.

Seeing what An Ran said about Adolf, he stopped talking. An Ran felt that there was nothing to do, so he went directly to the third floor. He didn't know whether it was because of his stomach or because he didn't sleep well in the morning. Gossip, but An Ran always just watched and didn't speak.

Ling Che stood in the guest room where Patriarch Chester was sitting, and Patriarch Chester sat on the bed. The luggage placed by the door remained motionless. The father and son remained silent with each other for a long time, until finally Patriarch Chester opened the door first. Because he knows his son too well, the taciturn man is still not as good as himself even though he is a father.

"What on earth did you come in for?" Patriarch Chester glared at his son.

Ling Che frowned, as if he was thinking, and he said after more than ten seconds: "Don't ask random questions tonight, just cooperate with me, or answer when they ask you." Ling Che felt that his father If you don't remind me of his temperament, there may be many problems at that time, and once the problems increase by 80.00%, it will touch An Ran's thunder point. After all, An Ran has never been a forbearing temper, and he has no intention of letting his lover and father discord.

Ling Che still didn't understand Anran. In this life, Anran was indeed very reckless, even a little narrow-minded, giving people the impression that some flaws must be reported, but in fact, forbearance is what Anran is best at, but it is also the thing he is least willing to do now. I don't want to wrong myself anymore, anything, this is a kind of rebellion.

"Why? His father didn't ask you?" Shouldn't normal parents ask all the basic information verbally?

"He never asked, and rarely interfered with An Ran and me. He only gave some advice or persuasion when we encountered problems." Ling Che was very grateful for An Zicheng's attitude. He really didn't know how to deal with an ordinary father.

"Then he doesn't know much about your situation?" Patriarch Chester couldn't understand, but he couldn't comment on this man before he met An Ran's father.

"An Ran will tell him that An Ran has a very good relationship with him." So good that he was a little jealous.

"Tell me about their family's situation. I heard you mention a few things before, but I didn't investigate before I had time." He didn't know anything at night and he couldn't talk at all.

"The An family is one of the top wealthy families in the Imperial Capital of China. An Zicheng is the current head of the An family. He originally had a wife and a pair of children, but they divorced not long ago, and the children were confirmed not to be his own. An Ran was born to an unknown woman before he got married. Son... An Zicheng is the commander of the Imperial Capital Military Region. He said that the Patriarch of the An family doesn't actually care about the An family's affairs. His father was in charge before, but now An Ran's people are in charge of some things. An Ran hates the An family except An Zicheng. Therefore, the downfall of An Zicheng's ex-wife's family and the current situation of An's family are all caused by An Ran." These things can be found on the Internet, so Ling Che did not hide them.

"His father doesn't know?" Patriarch Chester wondered.

"I know, but An Zicheng is on An Ran's side, he dotes on An Ran very much." He will also dote on An Ran in the future, so he won't lose to An Zicheng.

"Father, the head of the family is still the commander of the army. Anran is not only the heir but even has the real power. So Anran's family background is indeed not inferior to yours." Although the Chester family is older and stronger than the An family in terms of family, but at the same time because Too many branches also have more disadvantages. It is better to have only a few people in An's family, and there is no hidden danger of side branches.

"Anran owns a super-large conglomerate with countless funds." Apart from that, Anran should have other identities, but Ling Che felt that even if he knew about some things, it might not be appropriate to tell his father, let alone he doesn't know now. , although he felt that if he asked An Ran, he might actually tell him, after all, An Ran's behavior during that short period of time did not mean to avoid him at all.

"Why do I think An Zicheng is a very stupid person after hearing what you said? Is it a bit of a joke that such a person Huaxia can rest assured that he will sit in the position of commander of the Imperial Capital Military Region? Or did your inappropriate expression make me feel wrong?" He used to Although I didn't know anything about An Zicheng, how could a soldier who climbed to this position be like this?

"It's just that An Ran is more important than An Jia in his heart. You think too much." Ling Che knew what his father was thinking at a glance, and said that An Zicheng was stupid because An Zicheng didn't care about An's behavior before.

"Okay!" Patriarch Chester admitted that Ling Che was right.

"..." Ling Che rolled his eyes.

"It seems that you have really met your opponent this time. Look at An Ran. He is 10 years younger than you, but his achievements are higher than yours. Not only does he have a super-large conglomerate in his hands, but he has already controlled the real power of a top wealthy family. Tsk tsk ~" Patriarch Chester teased his son unscrupulously.

"..." Ling Che turned around and left this time, leaving Patriarch Chester alone. He watched Ling Che leave with his head covered and laughed wildly. He wished he could call and share with his wife right away.

An Zicheng said to come back early, but because there were a lot of things to do today, it was already dinner time when he came back. He went back to his room and changed his clothes, and asked Ling Che to call Master Chester to come down for dinner. He and An Ran sat down in the dining room first. Why not sit in the living room, mainly because several bodyguards are outside and there is no room to sit.

"Hello, Mr. Chester, I asked you to make a special trip because of the matter of the two juniors." When Ling Che and Patriarch Chester went downstairs, An Zicheng and An Ran went up to greet him slightly. When talking, An Zicheng's expression softened. But still with a soldier's sharpness.

"Hello, Mr. An, don't be too polite. It just so happens that I may not come to China for a long time, just as a tourist." Compared with An Zicheng, Mr. Chester smiled more cordially.

The first time he saw An Zicheng, he knew that he had really thought too much before, probably as his son said, what An Zicheng did was indeed because An Ran was more important to him, but the matter of the An family was a bit complicated, He doesn't know the inside story, and it's not easy to express any opinions.

Patriarch Chester didn't pay much attention to the people in the living room when he entered the villa. At this time, everyone appeared in the dining room together. Patriarch Chester realized that these people were not as simple as the few people who went to pick up the plane before, and then sat down. An Zicheng and An Ran sat in the middle on one side, Ling Che and Chester sat opposite them on the other side, and the ten bodyguards naturally sat next to the four of them, but now two of them were acting as waiters serving the food.

"These ten are An Ran's bodyguards." Seeing Patriarch Chester looking at the ten people, An Zicheng briefly introduced them.

"They are all talented people. It seems that An Ran is very courageous to invite them to be bodyguards." Patriarch Chester praised An Ran and several bodyguards in one word.

"It's okay." An Ran responded calmly, not knowing whether to say that the ten bodyguards were okay, or that she was okay.

"..." Patriarch Chester didn't know what to do next, so he just buried himself in the food. This dish tastes really good, and it seems to be better than their chef's cooking skills.

Basically, everyone eats and sleeps without talking, but it is rare for everyone to eat well, and there is no such thing as a depressed atmosphere.

The four of them went directly to the living room on the third floor, and An Ran went to make four cups of tea. Ling Che helped bring out two cups. It was the first time Patriarch Chester saw his son doing housework, and his mood was a bit complicated. , but then he was relieved, after all, if it was him, he wouldn't let his wife do it alone.

When the four of them finally sat down, Patriarch Chester took a sip of tea. An Zicheng was about to speak to An Ran but pressed him down. An Zicheng looked at An Ran, but An Ran said before him: "Uncle, the main purpose of your coming here is to solve the problem." The candidate for the heir of the Chester family and how Ling Che and I will get along in the future are two things, right?"

"It can be said like this, but as far as I know, not only the Chester family needs an heir, but the An family should also need an heir." Although he had already said it in the car returning from the airport, the head of the Chester family did not expect An Ran to be so straightforward opening.

"The An family? No, An Zicheng and I don't care whether there is an heir to the An family, but I don't care who the heir to the Chester family is, and I won't interfere. What I don't agree with is the existence of Ling Che and other people's children. That's all." An Ran didn't know that this kind of matter should be resolved by the elders, An Zicheng, a 24-year-old father, of course followed An Ran in everything, so seeing this, he just smiled helplessly.

"...So you mean, you have no problem with who Ling Che chooses as his successor?" Patriarch Chester asked.

"Almost, as long as the other party doesn't mess with me." An Ran nodded and said casually.

"You are right in saying that, but since you are with Ling Che, this should actually be a problem between the two of you. Can you leave it to Ling Che?" Patriarch Chester frowned.

"The head of the Chester family is wrong. How can it be said that An Ran will leave all the losses to Ling Che? They each have their own family responsibilities. It's fair for An Ran to deal with the An family, and Ling Che to deal with the Chester family, isn't it? Or Said that you are willing to An Ran to interfere with the heir of the Chester family?" Before An Ran could answer, An Zicheng spoke, obviously not happy with the slightly questioned words of the Patriarch of Chester just now.
