Apocalypse Tree of Hope

Chapter 286 The Masked Man
When Tao Haiyang said to wait, the atmosphere was suffocated.

Everyone looked up at Tao Haiyang.

Tao Haiyang stood up, turned around, went to the cupboard, took out a bottle of wine, went back to the table and opened it, looked at Liu Yuan with crooked eyes, and said with a smile, "Since there are new partners joining, how can we celebrate without drinking?" After holding the wine bottle, he poured a glass for several people.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Tang Tang raised his glass and said, "Tao Haiyang is right, Wang Chen, we offer you a toast, I hope you take good care of Rantong and Ranran."

Ma Zhi and the others also raised their wine glasses.

Lin Rantong bit his lip, thinking to himself what to do now, Liu Yuan can't drink the bar through a face towel, if that's the case, everyone in the Ivy League will definitely have a grudge, this is the first official meeting again, stay Once a bad impression is made, it is difficult to recover.

But if he took off his scarf, Liu Yu would definitely recognize him, not to mention his overly fair complexion.

Seeing that everyone was raising their glasses to him, Liu Yuan slowly picked up the cup.

Tao Haiyang stared at Liu Yuan's face closely, paying attention to his movements.

Liu Yuan stretched his hand to his ear, and gently pulled off the cloth towel.

Lin Rantong's nervous heart was raised in his throat, but when he saw Liu Yuan's face, he was startled, his eyes widened suddenly, how could this be, his appearance changed in just one day?

Lin Rantong immediately realized that something was wrong with him, took a deep breath, and looked at Liu Yuan calmly again.

I saw him with sharp edges and corners, fair complexion, straight nose bridge, a very handsome guy, but not Liu Yuan's appearance!

If it weren't for the tacit understanding between Lin Rantong and Liu Yuan, the feeling hadn't changed, and Lin Rantong would have suspected that he had brought the wrong person back.

Seeing Liu Yuan's face, Liu Yu lowered his head slightly, and laughed secretly, how could he have such absurd thoughts, knowing that he couldn't be the elder brother, but still holding on to a little bit of hope, it's all right now , finally give up.

Tao Haiyang frowned, how could it be, the feeling he gave himself was obviously...

Liu Yuan picked up the wine glass, gestured around to everyone, raised his head and drank without spilling a drop.

Everyone also drank it.

Lin Rantong explained again the reason why Liu Yuan could not speak. Except for Tao Haiyang who kept frowning, the others gradually relaxed.

This is also human nature. Anyone who faces a person who covers his head will subconsciously feel defensive and disgusted. When he sees the person's true face, no matter whether he is ugly or handsome, people will naturally relax.

Tang Tang smiled and said: "Wang Chen, I don't see that you are quite handsome, but you are barely worthy of our Yantong. I thought you were so ugly that you dare not see people."

Liu Yuan couldn't speak, so naturally he didn't need to answer, just smiled.

This smile looked brilliant, and Tang Tang immediately felt that he was pleasing to the eye.

However, Liu Lan changed her usual attitude and seemed to be more interested in Liu Yuan than when they first met.

Today's meal is extremely hard for Lin Rantong. She pays attention to Liu Yuan from time to time, fearing that he will show his fangs when he eats. Fortunately, Liu Yuan's mouth is very small when he eats. He is very gentle, only Lin Rantong knows that he is covering up his fangs.

Probably due to the nature of father and son, An Ran showed that he liked Liu Yuan very much, and even stretched out his fat hand to pick up vegetables for him. No matter what An Ran picked up, Liu Yuan would eat it with a smile.

After the meal was finally finished, Wei Xiuning never came out.

"Xiaoyu, take it with you for a while, I'll arrange a room for Wang Chen." Lin Rantong said.

An Ran leaned on Lin Rantong, her head shaking like a rattle: "No, no."

Lin Rantong touched An Ran's face and said, "Of course, what's the matter?" He secretly wondered, his son is usually quite obedient, what happened today?

An Ran looked at Liu Yuan and then at Lin Rantong, and said, "Mom, will you sleep with Uncle Wang?"

Tao Haiyang, who was about to leave, paused.

Lin Rantong looked at his serious son and twitched the corner of his mouth.

Tang Tang smiled and pinched An Ran's face: "Of course, do you disagree?"

An Ran pouted and thought for a while, "If mom agrees, I agree, but I want to sleep with mom."

Tang Tang smiled and glanced at the embarrassed Lin Rantong.

Lin Rantong's face was full of black lines, son, you really think too much, even though that is your father, it can't be exposed yet.

"Of course, mom only sleeps with you. You play with aunt for a while. Mom will pick you up after cleaning Uncle Wang's room." Lin Rantong patted An Ran's head.

An Ran nodded, broke free from Lin Rantong's hand and came to the ground, took Liu Yu's hand and walked together.

Everyone dispersed.

Tao Haiyang went to the cupboard and took out a bottle of wine, and walked out the door, Ma Zhi followed after seeing this.

There is a big lawn outside the first floor. Tao Haiyang chose a place to sit down at random. He raised the wine bottle and was about to drink when Ma Zhi pressed it down.

Tao Haiyang raised his eyebrows, and said lazily, "Why, can't you drink alcohol?"

Ma Zhi frowned: "Tao Haiyang, why are you doing this?"

Tao Haiyang looked at Ma Zhi silently for a long time, then shook his head: "You don't understand."

"Why don't I understand? I know you like the captain, and so does Brother Wei. We've seen it for a long time. Whether it's you or Brother Wei, we are all happy to see it come true. But that Wang Chen was brought back by the captain himself and admitted boyfriend, as friends, the only thing we can do is to bless you. You are like this—" Ma Zhi was interrupted by Tao Haiyang waving his hand.

Tao Haiyang smiled wryly and shook his head: "Ma Zhi, you mean I can't put it down because I'm a stalker, right?"

Ma Zhi didn't make a sound.

Tao Haiyang sighed, and said resentfully: "It's not like that, so you don't understand..."

"Then tell me clearly what's going on. What's the point of drinking like this? If you don't tell me, I can only understand it that way." Ma Zhi said coolly.

Tao Haiyang hesitated to speak, and finally said with a wry smile: "Forget it, you are right, if Rantong can be happy, I will bless them."

However, if he is not of my race and has ulterior motives, I will be the first to spare him, Tao Haiyang added secretly in his heart.

Thinking of this, Tao Haiyang took a sip from the wine bottle.

Ma Zhi was startled: "Are you kidding me?"

"Where did I cheat?" Tao Haiyang asked with raised eyebrows.

Ma Zhi pointed to the wine bottle: "Don't you say you figured it out, I just breathed a sigh of relief, and you drank it again."

Tao Haiyang patted the wine bottle and smiled brightly: "We are not using wine to drown our sorrows, hehe, this bottle of wine is the only one left in the cupboard, if we don't drink it now, we may not be able to get such good wine in the future. Why, really don’t you want to try it?”

"That's it, um, give me a taste." Ma Zhi said without hesitation.

The two of them didn't go back to get their wine glasses, but one of them drank violently from the bottle. After a while, the two of them became dizzy and fell asleep on the grass in a daze.

Mo Li had just packed up and was about to go to bed when she heard a knock on the door.

"Come in." Mo Li yelled, who else would come to her at this time, probably only that woman Liu Lan.

Sure enough, Liu Lan came in wearing her pajamas, and sat down on Mo Li's bed unceremoniously.

Mo Li sighed: "Liu Lan, what are you doing here at this hour?"

Liu Lan rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction: "Why, why can't I come over? You are biased, even if Zhuzhu comes over in the middle of the night, you won't dislike her."

Mo Li stroked her forehead, could it be the same, Zhuzhu, that silly girl, would count the money for others when she was sold, and you, you probably have to be the one who sells Zhuzhu!
Liu Lan ignored Mo Li's slander, and suddenly lowered her voice, "Mo Li, I discovered a secret, I don't know if I should tell it or not."

Mo Li immediately became alert. Often when Liu Lan said this, she didn't know who she was going to blackmail again.

"Why, you're not curious at all?" Liu Lan asked dissatisfied when she saw Mo Li's reaction.

Mo Li coughed lightly: "I'm really not curious."

Liu Lan shrugged her shoulders: "Forget it, I was hesitating about what to do, it's better to rot in my stomach for the time being."

After finishing speaking, he closed the door without delay and left.

Mo Li blinked depressedly on the bed, is she leaving now, what is this called, she said half a word!

Mo Li closed her eyes and wanted to sleep. She tossed and turned for a long time without falling asleep, and finally sat up angrily, cursing, "Damn Liu Lan, why did you come here so well? No, I have to ask what's the matter, otherwise I won't be able to sleep Sleep!"

Mo Li turned over and got out of bed as she spoke, but stopped in front of the door, shook her head and said, "Forget it, curiosity killed the cat, I still don't know."

After speaking, she threw herself heavily on the bed, picked up a pillow and covered her head.

On the other side, Lin Rantong put Liu Yuan in a room on the second floor and cleaned up the room for him.

Liu Yuan looked at the way his wife made the bed and folded the quilt for him, and involuntarily touched the position of his chest.

After Lin Rantong packed everything up, he waved to Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan obediently walked over and sat down.

Lin Rantong tilted his head to look at Liu Yuan, and suddenly poked his face with his finger.

Questions appeared in Liu Yuan's eyes.

Lin Rantong pinched Liu Yuan's face again and said, "Honey, what's going on?"

Liu Yuan had expected that Lin Rantong would ask such a question, so he took a pen and quickly wrote: "The mask I bought by chance."

Lin Rantong was surprised, touched Liu Yuan's face again and said: "So it's really a mask, it's too real, I didn't find it's fake, it's just like human skin."

Liu Yuan nodded, and wrote: "I just took a fancy to this, so I bought it with all my belongings."

Lin Rantong breathed a sigh of relief, in this way, Liu Yuan can use this mask to show others in the future, which is much more convenient than him covering his face all the time.

But immediately, Lin Rantong said angrily: "Then why didn't you say it earlier, so that I will worry for nothing?"

Liu Yuan smiled honestly, but the mask miraculously reflected his expression, and he continued to write: "I want to give you a surprise..."

Lin Rantong squinted his eyes and said: "It's only good to be surprised, by the way, when did you start saving your private money?"
