Fortunately, she calmly dealt with the situation and sent Ouyang Feng away. However, she still caused me trouble. For example, Shangguan Jie had repeatedly wronged her and made her a scapegoat. Moreover, at the Hongmen Banquet held by the Ouyang family, he deliberately found an excuse not to help his grandpa drink.
These actions undoubtedly reflected his vile heart. There was no doubt that the commander-in-chief saw it. Shangguan Jie thought that he would inherit the great cause sooner or later, so he was fearless and didn't help the commander-in-chief drink. He fulfilled the wish of the Ouyang family and built a good relationship with them.
Because Ouyang Jun had informed him in advance, Shangguan Jie explained to the commander-in-chief that he was really not feeling well. Moreover, with the Ouyang father and son's alcohol tolerance, he couldn't handle it. The commander-in-chief just said that it didn't matter, but he complained to Wan'er in private.
Wan'er's scolding made Shangguan Jie blush and glare at her fiercely.
This little girl was really tough. Since she came home, she had never talked to him in such a tone. However, in Shang Guanjie's view, the initiator of all this was because of me. His hatred for me was also constantly skyrocketing.
"Okay, I was wrong. I shouldn't have disturbed your sleep so early in the morning, and I shouldn't have mentioned him. That's all right, right?" Shangguan Jie took a deep breath and took the initiative to apologize.
"En, I actually don't want to argue with you. After all, we will be a family in the future. Don't embarrass everyone."
For Shangguan Jie, I didn't want to make things difficult for him. After all, he had been accompanying the commander-in-chief. It was a kind of confirmation of time and familial sustenance.
If things got out of hand, it would only put the commander-in-chief in a dilemma. Hearing my words, Shangguan Jie smiled embarrassedly and nodded. I waved my hand, and he left resentfully.
Little Cherry was also very depressed. She pouted her mouth, "Brother Xiao Zhuang, I'm sorry. My brother is such a person. Don't take it to heart."
Because the commander-in-chief wanted to improve the relationship between Shang Guanjie and Little Cherry and try to make them as close as possible as siblings, he did not tell Little Cherry about Shang Guanjie's true identity. The people who knew this news were only a few old friends of the commander-in-chief, but Shang Guanjie himself was well aware of it.
I hesitated and didn't tell Little Cherry about it. If I did, she would be even more conflicted and it would only destroy the harmony in the Shangguan family. The commander-in-chief definitely had concerns about this. He was old, after all. He hoped that his family could be harmonious.
However, we didn't feel sleepy anymore. After washing up, we went to the dining room downstairs for breakfast. Coincidentally, Guan Ruolan was also in the dining room. When she saw Little Cherry talking and laughing with me, she shot me a glance. She seemed a little unhappy.
Thinking back to the day when I had physical contact with Master at the flower field, I reminisced about it. It was a pity that I didn't get to kiss her. The dining room was a buffet. There were thirty to forty types of delicacies. It didn't include drinks, but it also included snacks from all over the world.
Little Cherry was a true foodie. She excitedly went to pick breakfast and asked me what I wanted to eat. I told her that I would just get something and casually sat in front of Guan Ruolan. Seeing my actions, Cherry couldn't help but glance at me.
I just smiled and pretended to be a normal boyfriend and girlfriend. When Little Cherry wasn't paying attention, I whispered, "Master, how did you sleep last night?"
"It was alright, but it definitely wasn't as comfortable as hugging a beauty." Guan Ruolan rolled her eyes and didn't seem to want to talk to me.
I was already used to her cold attitude. "Cough cough. Master, it's easy to end the conversation like this," I said awkwardly.
"Hmph! Then don't talk. Oh yeah, I have to catch a plane after breakfast," she pouted.
She was hesitating whether to tell me or not. Since I came down, it saved her the trouble of being hesitant.
"Ah, where are you going?" I asked blankly.
"Where can I go? Of course, I'm going back to Beijing. I was going to leave last night, but because of you, I stayed for half a day." Even Guan Ruolan didn't understand why she emphasized the latter half of the sentence.
She actually didn't sleep much last night. She was in a dilemma as to how to face me.
"Eh, don't. Master, it's so hard to see you. Stay in Nan Yun Province for a few more days. I'll accompany you. I'll accompany you to eat, drink, and play. If you want to sleep with me, that's fine too. I won't charge you!"
I subconsciously grabbed her small hand. Although it was just a short touch, the smooth feeling made my heart skip a beat.
"Your mouth is really shameless!
It's fine. I already bought the ticket. Let's talk about it in the future. Can you be more careful?
If someone saw this, then where would this little girl hide her face?! "Guan Ruolan hastily retracted her hand, and a trace of redness appeared on her cheeks.
"Cough. What if I don't come down? Are you going to leave without saying goodbye?" I asked gloomily. To be honest, Master's shy appearance was really beautiful.
"Maybe. Hurry up and help Wan 'er. I really don't understand why a man with such a thick skin like you has so many beautiful women around you!" Guan Ruolan said angrily.
As expected, Little Cherry, who wasn't far away, walked over with breakfast. I quickly stood up and helped Little Cherry. This little girl was quite attentive. She made a bowl of beef noodles and a cup of soy milk for me. She also picked some local snacks for herself.
Guan Ruolan smiled at Little Cherry. Originally, the two of them weren't familiar with each other. However, during yesterday's meal, the commander-in-chief had introduced her to Guan Ruolan's grandfather. He had good attainments in the medical field. In the past few years, he had helped the commander-in-chief many times and slowed down his illness. He could be considered as his savior.
Just as Little Cherry sat down, she started chatting happily with Guan Ruolan. She was like a happy fruit. She didn't dare to interact with Guan Ruolan because of her cold attitude. Since I didn't have anything to do, I buried my head in breakfast.
However, after chatting for a while, Guan Ruolan looked at the time and prepared to leave. I was a little anxious and stood up.
"Beauty Guan, let me see you off. If you have time in the future, come to Nan Yun Province to play."
"No need. You should accompany Wan 'er. I don't have a bad sense of direction." In the end, Guan Ruolan shook her head and rejected my good intentions.
I looked disappointed. Little Cherry, who was next to me, pouted and said, "You don't need to accompany me. I will bring some breakfast for Grandpa. Then, I will accompany him to the park for a walk."
It was obvious that Little Cherry could see my melancholy. After eating two mouthfuls, she went to get some breakfast and went upstairs.
