"Don't you ask me why?" Ruan Lutang asked Zhu Mengzhi after her.

Zhu Mengzhi turned around, walked back and looked at Ruan Lutang: "Why?"

"Why did you hit me on purpose, why did you show Fang Jiayan the documents."

Zhu Mengzhi spread his hands: "What does the matter between Ms. Zhu and Mr. Fang have to do with me? Why should I ask?"

Ruan Lutang pondered for a moment: "Actually, it has something to do with you."

Zhu Mengzhi immediately stopped and raised her voice several times: "It's none of my business..."

"Oh," she narrowed her eyes and looked at Ruan Lutang, "You and I are not enough to rob father, but also rob alpha?"

"Then you will be disappointed, I don't like Fang Jiayan anymore."

"Really?" Ruan Lutang stared at Zhu Mengzhi and asked seriously, "You don't like it at all?"

When Zhu Mengzhi thought of Fang Jiayan, he remembered how he rubbed her hand back and forth, and that nauseating feeling came back again.

She nodded and replied firmly, "I don't like it at all."

Ruan Lutang stared at her for two seconds, then smiled brightly: "That's good."

Zhu Mengzhi blinked, turned his head to the side, and muttered in a low voice, "What's so funny about this?"

Ruan Lutang took two steps forward: "Since you don't like it anymore, you won't feel bad if I do something bad to him, will you?"

"Distressed? You'd better beat him hard!"

Zhu Mengzhi waved his fist.Thinking of how I walked around behind Fang Jiayan like a fool before, because of the dark history of his every move, my mood turned bad.

Ruan Lutang walked to her side calmly: "It's against the law to beat someone, I won't do such a thing."

"Then you keep talking!" Zhu Mengzhi rolled his eyes, and complained as he stepped back, "Fang Jiayan, Fang Jiayan, talked all the way, so why don't you go with him if you care?"

Ruan Lutang followed her and explained softly, "It doesn't have to be illegal to do bad things."

"And don't worry, I'm an alpha, and I don't have any thoughts about other alphas."

Ruan Lutang raised her hand and said solemnly, "I promise."

Zhu Mengzhi's ears turned red suddenly, she licked her lips, avoided Ruan Lutang's sight in a panic, and coughed twice: "Crazy, what are you swearing to me!"

With that said, she turned around and was about to walk forward.

But in the next second, Zhu Mengzhi was pulled back by a force covering his forehead.

A faint aroma of wine came over, and when Zhu Mengzhi reacted, she was hugged by Ruan Lutang from behind, and the other's hand was still on her forehead.

"Almost hit a tree." Ruan Lutang rubbed her forehead and pulled her aside.

Zhu Mengzhi looked at the tree obliquely in front of him, didn't speak, and didn't take his hand out of Ruan Lutang's hand.

It wasn't until he reached the building that Zhu Mengzhi whispered, "I'm home."

Ruan Lvtang nodded: "Yes."

Zhu Mengzhi stood still, looking down at the two hands clasped together: "Do you have something to say to me?"

Ruan Lutang thought for a while: "Good night?"

"..." Zhu Mengzhi looked at Ruan Lutang speechlessly, and took his hand out of her hand, "Then you go."

She turned around and walked up the stairs, Ruan Lutang stood at the entrance of the corridor and asked, "What do you want me to tell you?"

Zhu Mengzhi has already climbed half a floor, lying on the small window at the corner and looking down: "I wanted to invite you upstairs for a glass of water, but you seem to be in a hurry to go home and sleep. Then, there is no way."

Ruan Lutang supported his forehead: "But I'm not sleepy, is the invitation still valid?"

"No waiting!" Zhu Mengzhi waved his hand, "Bye!"

After waving his hand, Zhu Mengzhi shrank his head, and went up the stairs again.

The neighbors all turned off the lights and went to sleep. Ruan Lutang couldn't shout anymore, so she called Zhu Mengzhi.

Zhu Mengzhi didn't know how many stairs he had climbed, and when he answered the phone, his voice was still panting: "What are you doing?"

Ruan Lutang walked to the lamppost where she was squatting the night before, looked at the warm yellow light from the corridor window, and reminded her: "Don't forget to massage when you get home."

Zhu Mengzhi replied feebly: "Oh."

Ruan Lutang continued: "After taking a shower, dry off quickly, and the windows and curtains must be closed at night. The buildings in this community are too close, and it is easy to see your room from the opposite side."

There was the sound of the door lock turning, followed by a few "clicks" of walking. Zhu Mengzhi poked his head out of the window, stretched his arms and asked her, "How do you know so clearly? Mother-in-law's , you are not my mother."

Ruan Lutang said lightly: "I have lived in this kind of community for more than [-] years, and I have more experience than you."

Zhu Mengzhi suddenly fell silent.

Ruan Lvtang has lived in a single-parent family for more than 20 years, and she knows how difficult it is when she thinks about it.Although this is not Zhu Mengzhi's fault, the fact is that she has lived a happy life for [-] years instead of Ruan Lutang.

As soon as this topic was brought up, Zhu Mengzhi didn't say anything, but he still felt a little guilty in his heart, as if he had stolen Ruan Lutang's life.

Ruan Lutang saw that she was uncomfortable, and continued: "Also, you must unplug the electrical appliances when you go out. When someone knocks on the door, you must first confirm your identity through the peephole. Before going to bed, you must check whether the doors and windows are closed..."

She paused, sighed, and smiled wistfully: "My mother taught me these things. It is very hard for her to raise a family by herself, and she often comes home very late, so I am always at home alone."

"I used to always say that when I grow up and make money, she won't have to work so hard, and I won't have to be alone at home."

"But I didn't expect that now that I've grown up and can make money, I'm still the only one in the family."

Zhu Mengzhi's voice lowered: "Ruan Lutang..."

She yelled in a low voice, but didn't know how to continue.Zhu Mengzhi has always been the one who is coaxed and coaxed by others. She doesn't need and doesn't care about other people's feelings, and she doesn't know how to comfort others.

She organized her speech for a long time, and at the end she just faltered and said: "Do you still want to come up for a glass of water?"

Ruan Lutang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and refused: "Forget it."

Zhu Mengzhi picked at the mosquito net on the window, with a cautious voice in his voice: "Are you angry?"

Ruan Lutang raised her head and smiled at her, explaining: "No, it's just getting late, you should go to bed early, you have to go to work tomorrow."

With the help of the street lamp, Zhu Mengzhi could clearly see Ruan Lutang's expression and facial features, as well as her eyes that seemed to be covered with mist.

This was the first time that Ruan Lutang showed her vulnerable side in front of her, and Zhu Mengzhi's heart seemed to be wet with mist, which made her a little uncomfortable and a little regretful.

I clearly knew that Ruan Lutang's mother had passed away, so why did I keep mentioning this word in front of her?

"Did my words make you uncomfortable?" Zhu Mengzhi assured her as if she had made a mistake, "I won't say that again in the future."

"No, I just thought of a lot of things from the past."

Ruan Lvtang looked at her and said with a smile: "And I had a very happy day today. I have been very happy since I thought I could meet you again today before going to bed last night."

Zhu Mengzhi's nose was a little sore, she turned her head, blocked herself behind the wall and complained in a low voice: "The teeth are sore."

Ruan Lutang was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "Thank you for letting me be by your side."

"It's just today, tomorrow you—"

Zhu Mengzhi stopped suddenly.She was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly changed her words: "Not sure about tomorrow."

"We'll talk about tomorrow's matter tomorrow," Ruan Lutang heard her backing down and acquiescing, and didn't push her any further, and thoughtfully gave Zhu Mengzhi some room to breathe, "Good night for today."

Zhu Mengzhi's voice responded softly: "Yes."

Before hanging up the phone, Ruan Lutang yelled again: "I wish Mengzhi."

"Huh?" Zhu Mengzhi responded reflexively before emphasizing, "Don't call me that, my last name is Zhu."

Ruan Lutang said warmly: "No matter what your surname is, I wish you a sweet dream."

After talking on the phone for too long, Zhu Mengzhi felt that the phone was hot, and even the skin that was attached to the phone became hot.

She stepped back, closed the window first, then drew the curtains, and then replied quickly and softly, "I wish you a sweet dream too."

Ruan Lutang laughed lightly, and took the opportunity to say, "Don't go to Sha County tomorrow, I'll bring you food."

"Oh, let's go."

Zhu Mengzhi nodded in a daze, and only after hanging up the phone did he realize what he had promised.

In this way, won't we see Ruan Lvtang again tomorrow?

Zhu Mengzhi knocked on her forehead in frustration. When she slipped away from the hospital, she clearly had the determination not to communicate with each other until she died. Why did she get stuck with Ruan Lutang again after only half a month? What she said was what she said Woolen cloth?

Also, originally I asked Ruan Lvtang not to come again tomorrow, why did the words change again?

Zhu Mengzhi raised his head and looked around the empty house, and remembered that there had been no new news in the WeChat group chat in the past half month, and none of the friends who ate, drank, played, and traveled together sent greetings.

Apart from work, she can no longer find anyone to talk to.

This is probably the reason, she can't stand being alone, and she refuses to take the initiative to approach others, but only Ruan Lutang will take the trouble to come over again and again.

So she didn't dare to push her away again, she was afraid that next time, Ruan Lutang would not take the initiative to come over.

Moreover, Ruan Lvtang seems to be quite lonely.When two lonely people are together, they are equal to each other, and neither owes the other.

Zhu Mengzhi quietly opened the corner of the curtain, and the people under the street lamp had disappeared.

She was the one who urged Ruan Lutang to leave, but after the people under the lamppost disappeared, Zhu Mengzhi felt a little disappointed again for no reason.

She pushed open a window and leaned out half of her body to look out, but she didn't see Ruan Lutang's figure, but was blown in the face by the evening wind.

"It's windy again," Zhu Mengzhi closed the glass and muttered to himself, "I should buy her a glass of water."

When Ruan Lutang returned home, the room was still brightly lit.She went into the room and looked around, and found Zhu Gaoyi who hadn't seen him for a long time in the study.

"Dad," Ruan Lutang knocked on the door, "Are you back?"

Zhu Gaoyi raised his head from the document: "Tangtang, why did you come home so late, working so hard?"

Ruan Lutang smiled and acquiesced, walked in and sat opposite Zhu Gaoyi, and said in a deep voice, "The land development plan you asked me to do has been written. If you have time now, please go over it."

"So fast?" Zhu Gaoyi reached out to take the document and flipped through it, picking out the one with his seal, "This is it?"

Ruan Lvtang didn't change his face: "Maybe it was accidentally mixed in when sorting out the documents."

Zhu Gaoyi nodded, didn't care anymore, and looked at her plan carefully.

Looking at it, a smile of approval appeared on his face: "Very good, very good. Although there are some minor flaws, in general, the flaws are not concealed."

"Tangtang, it seems that you follow your father and have a keen sense of economics."

Ruan Lutang followed suit with a smile: "How could it be so good, Dad, you are too proud."

"It's not an exaggeration at all. The feasibility of this plan is very high, and it can be issued with a little modification." Zhu Gaoyi clapped his hands and sighed, "It's a pity that the land we want to develop is not in Ningping Dam."

Ruan Lutang's smile deepened: "Speaking of which, Dad, I have a small gift for you."

Zhu Gaoyi became interested: "Oh?"

Ruan Lutang leaned forward and spit out two words: "Fang's family."

Zhu Gaoyi frowned: "The Fang family?"

The business scope of the Fang family and the Zhu family partially overlaps. Although the Fang family is not as good as before, they started early and still firmly occupy a small part of the market.

To Zhu Gaoyi, the Fang family is just a small hill, which is an eyesore, and it is not so easy to find the bottom.

He looked at Ruan Lutang, and asked interestingly, "How do you give the Fang family to me?"

Ruan Lvtang pointed at the proposal: "It's thanks to their impatient and stupid son."

Zhu Gaoyi stared deeply at Ruan Lutang, and said with emotion: "Tangtang, it seems that you will be able to sit in my seat soon, I really look forward to that day."

Ruan Lutang looked at him and smiled slightly: "Then I have to work harder."

……

Ruan Lvtang did what he said.For more than half a month, Zhu Mengzhi would be woken up by the landlord's grandson every day at noon.

Fortunately, Zhu Mengzhi has not suffered from insomnia for more than ten nights, so it will not be so painful when she is woken up.

But she still put on full makeup calmly, and made the people downstairs wait for a while, the little boy was almost hoarse, Zhu Mengzhi poked his head out and shouted: "I heard you, you can shut up. "

The boy closed his mouth aggrieved, took Ruan Lvtang's ice cream, licked a couple of mouthfuls and ran away.

"Hey, you," Zhu Mengzhi pointed at Ruan Lvtang, "you don't feel well today and ask for leave?"

Ruan Lutang raised her wrist and showed her the watch: "It's lunch break now."

Zhu Mengzhi rested her chin: "Oh."

Ruan Lutang asked: "Aren't you coming down?"

Zhu Mengzhi pouted: "Aren't you going to bring me food?"

Ruan Lutang lifted the cloth bag containing the heat preservation box and shook it in front of him.

Zhu Mengzhi rolled his eyes and said, "Do you want me to squat on the side of the road to eat?"

"Aren't we all at this stone table a few days ago—" Ruan Lutang stopped in the middle of the sentence, looked at Zhu Mengzhi and smiled, "Then I carry it up?"

Zhu Mengzhi reluctantly nodded: "Okay."

Ruan Lutang sent Zhu Mengzhi home several times, and also waited downstairs at her house countless times, but this was the first time she was invited up.

She counted the number of floors where Zhu Mengzhi lived, and followed the window to find it.

This kind of old-fashioned community has only two families with door to door on the first floor, and it is very easy to find the floor after determining the direction of the floor.

Within a few minutes, Ruan Lvtang stood in front of the door.She reached out and knocked on the door, but she didn't hear footsteps, but there was some movement behind the thin door panel.

Ruan Lutang tapped lightly a few more times: "Zhu Mengzhi?"

Zhu Mengzhi was clearly behind the door, but he didn't make a sound or move. It took several seconds before he opened the door.

Ruan Lutang looked around suspiciously: "What were you doing just now?"

"Check who is coming through the cat's eyes, didn't you teach me before."

Listening to the voice, Zhu Mengzhi is quite proud.Although the expression on his face was tense so that Ruan Lvtang could not see it, there was light in his eyes, and three large characters were written: Praise!

Ruan Lutang couldn't help but curled the corners of her mouth, and said with a warm smile, "So you listened, but you were so impatient that night."

"Who made you keep buzzing in my ears, it's hard not to listen."

Zhu Mengzhi turned sideways and let Ruan Lvtang in.

Ruan Lutang put the lunch box on the table, turned his head and looked around a few times.Although this house is quite old, the decoration inside is not bad. When the sun shines at noon, it looks bright and spacious.

Things are neatly tidied up, it seems that Zhu Mengzhi has grown a lot in the past month or so, and can do housework now.

Ruan Lutang pulled a chair for Zhu Mengzhi, opened the insulated box, and put the dishes inside on the table one by one.

Zhu Mengzhi took a closer look, sniffled and asked, "Lanting Restaurant?"

Ruan Lutang didn't nod or shake his head, but asked instead: "Didn't you say you're tired of Lanting?"

"Hayue Restaurant?"

"You said the name is too ugly."

"Moon-watching Pavilion?"

"You said it was unpalatable."

"Dong Li?"

"Too far."

Zhu Mengzhi muttered unhappily: "It's great to have a good memory."

"I don't have a good memory, how can I meet your needs?" Ruan Lutang tilted her head and gave Zhu Mengzhi the chopsticks, "Guess again."

"Don't guess." Zhu Mengzhi tasted a piece of vegetables and commented, "It's so bland, who else can't bear to add salt except you."

Ruan Lutang laughed: "Didn't you say you don't want to guess?"

"Revealing the answer is not a guess." Zhu Mengzhi can always find all kinds of fallacies.

"Oh," Ruan Lutang suddenly realized, "It turns out that a certain mature adult clearly knew who made the dishes, but he insisted on giving a few wrong answers on purpose."

Zhu Mengzhi's ears turned red again, she ignored Ruan Lutang, and brought up the topic again: "You don't have to go to work, why do you have time to make lunch?"

Ruan Lvtang blinked: "I'm just an intern, and I won't be noticed when I arrive late and leave early. Today, my aunt sent a message saying that she bought fresh vegetables, so I stopped by and made a meal."

"What about He Shanshan, isn't she your colleague? If you treat her like that, she will definitely keep an eye on you."

"I don't know," Ruan Lutang propped his chin to watch Zhu Mengzhi eat, his voice was a little cold, "She didn't come to work today, maybe she's still at Fang Jiayan's place."

Hearing the names of these two people appeared together, Zhu Mengzhi was still a little shocked. She stopped her chopsticks and asked in bewilderment, "Since when did the two of them become so close?"

It was rare for Ruan Lutang to be euphemistic: "Since you left Zhu's house."

Zhu Mengzhi bit her chopsticks and said dejectedly, "Without me blocking them, they would be in a rage and get out of control? It turns out that I am the bad guy who destroys other people's feelings..."

"It has nothing to do with you." Ruan Lutang pulled the chopsticks out of Zhu Mengzhi's mouth, and handed her a new pair of chopsticks, "After you left Zhu's house, He Shanshan found out that she was pregnant."

"Pregnant?" Zhu Mengzhi opened her mouth wide, and it took a while to recover her voice, "How come, if you want to conceive, you must form a knot in the genitals. Before the two parties are completely married, few people will do this."

Ruan Lvtang calmly replied: "Rare doesn't mean no, otherwise I wouldn't have been born."

"No..." Zhu Mengzhi coughed twice in embarrassment, "I mean, Fang Jiayan doesn't look like someone who would do that."

"It should be the time when he got out of control in the clubhouse. He was in estrus and got carried away." After Ruan Lutang finished speaking, the air was quiet for two seconds.

That loss of control not only changed the relationship between Fang Jiayan and He Shanshan, but also affected her and Zhu Mengzhi.If it wasn't for that incident, their relationship wouldn't be as embarrassing as it is now.

Zhu Mengzhi unconsciously turned around with her chopsticks, and took the lead to change the topic: "So they are getting married?"

Ruan Lutang then changed the subject: "Well, the engagement ceremony will be in two days."

"I'm so happy." Zhu Meng's thoughts were not on those two people at all, and this blessing was said without emotion.

Ruan Lutang echoed and repeated dryly, the room became quiet again, and did not become angry again until Zhu Mengzhi had finished eating.

Ruan Lutang cleaned up the dishes and was going to wash, but was stopped by Zhu Mengyi.

She clutched the lunch box and did not let go: "No, I eat the rice, I wash it myself!"

Ruan Lutang looked at her curiously: "Are you sure? You don't have to be polite to me." Anyway, she has been Zhu Mengzhi's nanny for long enough, and it's okay to do it this time.

Zhu Mengzhi nodded affirmatively: "I'll go wash, you sit here and don't move."

Don't even take the initiative to help?Is wishing Mengzhi to grow so fast?

Ruan Lutang looked at her suspiciously, then nodded, and sat still on the chair: "Okay."

Zhu Mengzhi breathed a sigh of relief, and went to the kitchen with the bowl and chopsticks.

Ruan Lutang watched her enter the kitchen, and followed her lightly.After all, she had never seen Zhu Mengzhi wash dishes, so she probably didn't even know the dish soap.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

The house was neatly tidied by Zhu Mengzhi, but there was a pile of bowls piled up in the kitchen sink.Zhu Mengzhi was holding a lunch box, standing in front of the sink and sighing.

"..." The rapid growth is indeed a fantasy.

Ruan Lutang walked over, took the bowls and chopsticks from Zhu Mengzhi's hands and put them on the countertop, then took out the bowls and chopsticks from the sink, and rinsed them patiently one by one.

Zhu Mengzhi walked around her, a little embarrassed and aggrieved, several emotions were intertwined and his voice changed: "The bowls are all greasy, if you touch the oil in your hands, you won't be able to wash it clean."

I really don't know about dish soap...

Ruan Lutang squeezed out a loving smile like an elementary school teacher, pointed at the dish soap and taught Zhu Mengzhi word by word: "This thing is called dish soap, and it's used to wash dishes and pots."

"Do you think I'm mentally handicapped?" Zhu Mengzhi was a little speechless, and immediately rolled his eyes.

Ruan Lutang rubbed his hands, and turned the faucet to the left: "It is most convenient and clean to wash dishes with hot water and detergent. Hot water can soak away solidified oil stains, and rinse them with detergent and they will disappear."

"The weather is getting colder, and the oil stains on the bowls and chopsticks will solidify after a while, and they can't be washed with cold water alone."

"Oh," Zhu Mengzhi watched Ruan Lutang's movements carefully, stepped forward and pushed her out, "Get out of the way."

Ruan Lutang refused: "I'll just wash the dishes, dish soap is not good for the skin, and your hands will become rough."

Zhu Mengzhi pushed her out forcefully: "Miss, I am a waiter now, and my hands are already rough!"

"Besides," she took a bowl to flush the water and muttered, "You are not my personal assistant anymore, why do you wash the dishes for me?"

Ruan Lutang stopped arguing with her, turned on another faucet, and rinsed Zhu Mengzhi's washed bowl again.

Amid the clinking of plates and bowls, Ruan Lvtang said, "I have a dinner party with my colleagues tonight, so I might be late, don't worry."

Ruan Lutang immediately ran to the restaurant after work every day to wait for Zhu Mengzhi to finish work, and then took her hand and walked for 10 minutes to take her home, standing under the street lamp and talking on the phone with Zhu Mengzhi who was lying on the window sill for more than ten minutes. leave.After repeating this for more than half a month, this has become a tacit agreement between the two.

Zhu Mengzhi snorted: "I won't worry."

Ruan Lutang turned to look at her: "If you're not worried about this, how about worrying about something else?"

Zhu Mengyi was taken aback: "What?"

Ruan Lutang raised her eyebrows: "Today is my birthday, you still have an afternoon to think about what gift you want to give me."
