Apocalypse Tree of Hope

Chapter 129 The time is just right
Aunt Cui glared at him resentfully: "Even in the past, with her status as the deputy mayor's eldest daughter, there would definitely be people queuing up to ask for her son with her. What's more, your uncle is Yaoguang The head of the personnel department of the base is now, even the previous mayor did not sit in this position, let alone how few women are pitiful now—”

"Auntie, I don't care if there are too many women nowadays, there are Xiaoyu like that? She has children, and I don't want to marry a yellow-faced woman!"

Aunt Cui said angrily: "Zhenlei, you didn't see her, she—"

At this moment, I heard a knock on the door, and then Xiao Cui's voice came: "Madam, the eldest lady is here."

Aunt Cui immediately softened her expression and said: "Come in, please." Then she glared at Cui Zhenlei again: "Clean up quickly and go out with me."

Cui Zhenlei stroked his hair indiscriminately, and followed Aunt Cui with a foolish look.

As soon as the two of them went out, they saw Lin Rantong standing in the living room, with their backs to them talking with Liu Yu. An Ran's chubby body was lying in Lin Rantong's arms, with her small head on her shoulders, rushing over The two made faces.

Liu Yu frowned when he saw Cui Zhenlei approaching and smiled at her with that awkward expression.

Lin Rantong had already heard the voice, but was too lazy to turn around. Seeing Liu Yu frowning, he asked, "What's the matter, Xiaoyu?"

Liu Yuxing opened her eyes slightly, and said helplessly, "It's nothing, sister-in-law, you'll find out later."

"Rantong, you're here." Aunt Cui's soft and tired voice came.

Lin Rantong turned around slowly, and saw Aunt Cui walking towards her wearing a moon-white cheongsam with peony flower patterns. She has a plump figure but is uneven, showing the style of the cheongsam just right.

Then I caught a glimpse of a young man behind her, about 175, thin, with a high nose bridge, not handsome, but passable, but the eyes are a little wandering, which makes people uncomfortable.

At this moment, he was staring at Lin Rantong with an incredulous expression.

"Rantong, this is Zhenlei. You haven't seen each other before. You are both young people. It's a good time to get to know each other. Zhenlei, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and greet Rantong for me." Aunt Cui turned her head as she spoke Turning around, he said again: "I'll go and arrange breakfast, you two can talk slowly."

Lin Rantong raised her eyebrows and looked at Aunt Cui's back, thinking to herself: What is this woman doing again, don't you feel tired?
Out of basic politeness, Lin Rantong slightly nodded at Cui Zhenlei as a greeting, then turned to Liu Yu and said, "Xiaoyu, are you still used to it these two days?"

Liu Yu raised his chin slightly, and said in a low but firm voice, "Very, I'm not used to it."

Cui Zhenlei beside him hurriedly smiled and said, "Xiaoyu, you're just too shy, you'll get used to it when you get familiar with it. Isn't that right, Rantong?"

This person is so familiar?Lin Rantong didn't answer, but continued to say to Liu Yu: "In this case, let's go back now." After speaking, he stood up holding An Ran.

"Rantong, why did you leave as soon as you arrived? My aunt ordered the food." Cui Zhenlei hurriedly stood up and said.

Cui Zhenlei's voice was a bit loud, and Aunt Cui came out after hearing it. She glanced at the clock hanging in the living room, and it was 5 minutes before 07:30, and then said in a gentle and tactful voice: "Rantong, what Just leave, today I specially asked Aunt Wang to make the braised eggplant that you like, and the steamed fish that An Ran liked last time."

"No, Aunt Cui, we still have something to do, so we'll go back first, and come back next time." Lin Rantong replied in a flat voice.Eating braised eggplant and steamed fish in the morning, I really think of them as special food.

Who knew that Aunt Cui actually took a step forward and grabbed Lin Rantong's wrist. Lin Rantong had always disliked physical contact with others, so he shook off her hand reflexively.

"Ouch." Aunt Cui took a few steps back and exclaimed while holding her wrist.

"Auntie, are you okay?" Cui Zhenlei asked.

"Qianqian, what's going on?" A male voice came.

Lin Rantong looked back, and saw that the door was opened by a young man, and then closed gently again. His father was standing at the door, asking with a sinking face.

Lin Chuyang was leaning next to him. Seeing his mother like that, he quickly ran forward, took Aunt Cui's hand and said, "Oh, mom, your wrists are blue. Big sister, how can you do this?"

"Rantong, what's going on?" Lin Feng asked in a deep voice.

Seeing Lin Chuyang's accusing expression and his father's questioning voice, Lin Rantong took a deep breath, and she knew that this kind of right and wrong should not be here.

Lin Feng didn't say a word, waiting for Lin Rantong's explanation, but Lin Rantong lowered his eyes and remained silent, and the atmosphere became stalemate for a while.

Aunt Cui stepped forward and said with a smile: "Lin Feng, it's not a big deal to see what you're doing so seriously. Ran Tong doesn't mean it. You don't have to go take a shower, you're sweating all over after exercising."

Lin Feng still frowned, and said to Lin Rantong: "Why do you have to leave just now, how about it, let's have dinner first, I have something to discuss with you."

"Father, I have already had breakfast." Lin Rantong replied without sadness or joy.

"Then eat some more, you have eaten, An Ran hasn't eaten yet." Lin Feng's tone became more blunt.

Lin Rantong really wanted to turn around and leave, but after thinking about it, she nodded and said yes, and went back to the living room and sat down gracefully.Why escape?I am no longer the age of rebellion. It is not so easy to provoke my anger so easily.Lin Rantong glanced at Aunt Cui with a virtuous face. Thinking of this, she sat up straighter, and her every move conformed to the etiquette norms.

The food was served, steamed bun porridge, poached eggs, cold cucumber as a side dish, braised eggplant and a steamed fish.

"Why do you eat this in the morning?" Lin Feng asked.

"Seeing that Rantong came over, I added a dish." Aunt Cui said with a smile, then touched her wrist unintentionally, and there was a bruise on her fair skin.

Seeing that Lin Feng's face darkened: "Rantong, why are you getting older, but it's becoming more and more insignificant."

An Ran looked at grandpa's gloomy face, then at her mother's tightly pursed lips, and suddenly raised a big smile: "Grandpa, mom is much lighter now, look, mom's clothes are so big, they don't look like Ranran's clothes. You can’t hold me anymore.” As he spoke, he pulled down his top to cover his chubby belly.

Lin Feng glanced at Lin Rantong's protruding wrist, his expression relaxed: "Rantong, you can live here from now on, but I have made arrangements to send him to kindergarten in a few days, although it is the end of the world , but you can’t pretend to be blind.” As he spoke, he glanced at Liu Yu who was sitting on the side, frowning and nodding, and said: “Miss Liu will live here from now on, just to be with Rantong and Chuyang.”

"Father, of course I have my own plans, let's go back, can we come over when we have time?" Although Lin Rantong's tone was discussing, there was an unquestionable expression on his face.

Lin Feng took a look at his eldest daughter, why was she so stubborn, he couldn't help but said in an emphatic tone: "Then tell me, what are your plans for Ranran?"

Lin Rantong hesitated for a few seconds, and then heard Lin Chuyang say: "Eldest sister, why don't you like this place? Mom treats you so well—"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Rantong said coldly: "Chuyang, I don't know when Dad will talk, and I need you to intervene."

"You!" Lin Chuyang's eyes widened, then he turned his head and said in a long voice to Lin Feng: "Father—"

Lin Feng glanced at his youngest daughter, and then said to Lin Rantong: "Rantong, what Chu Yang said is right, you mother and son live here, and you will receive the best care. Who is Aunt Cui, I After so many years, you can’t read it wrong.”

"Father, I'm doing very well now." Speaking of this, Lin Rantong was serious and added very sincerely: "It's really good, I like the feeling of fighting for a better life with my friends .”

"Friend, what kind of friend are you? It's just a mercenary squad that barely survives. With them, how can you and An Ran's safety be guaranteed?" Lin Feng asked back.

Lin Rantong's heart turned cold, and sure enough, he was still talking to the duck, and in this case, then——

Thinking of this, Lin Rantong's face turned cold, and said lightly: "Father, I am a mother, don't worry, I will take good care of An Ran. Hehe, didn't we live together before we met you?" Are you down?" Lin Rantong smiled as he spoke.

For some reason, seeing Lin Rantong's smile made Lin Feng feel a little glaring. He was not unhappy to meet his eldest daughter again at the Yaoguang Base. When she grew up, she didn't expect that she was still the little girl who was covered in thorns and didn't allow anyone to get close to her. Even if the person who wanted to get close to her was her father!
"Lin Feng, since Ran Tong wants to live with her friend, don't force her, as long as she brings An Ran over often, won't it be the same?" Aunt Cui said with a smile, and then glanced at her daughter.

"Sister, it will be my birthday in three days. I have prepared a small party. You must come then, uh, tell your friends and me to come together." Lin Chuyang said suddenly.

"Sorry, Chuyang, we have something to do every day." Lin Rantong said.

Lin Chuyang looked at Lin Feng with aggrieved expression.

"Rantong, you just hunt every day. It doesn't matter if you miss one day. Chuyang and I mentioned that the people who went that day were all young people. It's okay for you to get together more. It's settled. Don't talk about it." Lin Feng saw Lin Rantong's lips move slightly, and directly blocked the words she was going to refuse.

Looking at her father's appearance, Lin Rantong nodded helplessly. If she refuses again, it will not be easy to end. She doesn't want to get into trouble with her father. After all, she has to stay in Yaoguang. Hehe, even if she wants to leave, it's not that hard It's easy, Lin Rantong smiled bitterly in his heart.

"Okay, then I'll come back in three days, Dad, I'll take An Ran and Xiao Yu back first." Lin Rantong said.

Seeing that his daughter agreed, Lin Feng didn't press further, and nodded his head in agreement.

"Zhenlei, send Rantong quickly." Aunt Cui said hastily.

Lin Rantong looked at Aunt Cui, then at Cui Zhenlei who had an inexplicable expression, and turned away without saying a word, followed by Liu Yu.
