Chapter 7

Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

Just after entering the side hall, Tang Ran immediately heard a female’s slightly mocking voice ring out.

”Luoqian, that cheap sister of yours is here.”

”……”

The voice wasn’t loud yet wasn’t quiet, just loud enough for the attendant and Tang Ran walking into the side hall to hear.

The attendant stopped himself awkwardly and turned back to look at the little girl behind him.

Tang Ran stood in place, her eyes calmly closed.

Before coming, she had already mentally prepared for what she would hear and encounter today.

She knew the female who had just spoken up. She should be older sister Tang Luoqian’s childhood friend, from the Tang family’s circle of friend’s Bi family’s youngest daughter Bi Yushan, and also Luo Zhan’s cousin.

She had been playing with Tang Luoqian since they were small. The two had a very good relationship, so towards Tang Ran’s existence, she followed along with Tang Luoqian’s hatred and completely viewed her as an enemy.

Tang Ran had met Bi Yushan twice before when she returned to the Tang family, and was no stranger to her voice.

On the sofa in the side hall, Tang Luoqian resentfully shot a glance at the girl coming in from the direction of the porch. Especially when her gaze swept over the girl’s delicately pretty figure and face, Tang Luoqian unconsciously frowned.

After reminding herself that this was currently the Luo residence that she would marry into in the future and therefore had to pay attention to her image, Tang Luoqian softly snorted.

”Quite pretty when dressed up.”

Bi Yushan also clearly noticed, curling her lips, “What’s the use of being pretty, still a little blind girl.”

”……”

Tang Luoqian approved of her words, feeling relieved in her heart. Her line of sight that was just about to leave Tang Ran’s figure, suddenly stopped again.

After a few seconds, she frowned and asked Bi Yushan: “Don’t you think that jacket she’s wearing seems a bit like the renowned Swedish designer Evelina Gunnarsson’s1 handiwork?”

(i searched her up and she seems to be a behavioral economist?? uh??? maybe the author’s secretly into economics, idk)

Bi Yushan stared blankly before she responded, “You mean the designer brand that appears the most in my cousin’s closet?”

”En.”

”Even if it looks like it, that’s impossible. What are you thinking? You’re still on the waitlist, how would it be this blind girl’s turn?”

”But that jacket doesn’t look like it’s hers. It actually looks like a men’s style….”

”Okay, okay, don’t let your imagination run wild.” Bi Yushan patted her.

Tang Luoqian came to her senses, also feeling that her thoughts were ridiculous. She stood up with a slightly displeased face. Without looking at the attendant or Tang Ran, she only raised her voice to ask:

”People are waiting for us, can we go to the main building now?”

In the eyes of the Luo family’s servants, the Tang family’s eldest miss was their future female master, so they naturally treated her with respect.

After the attendant felt Tang Luoqian’s displeasure, he promptly smiled and answered, “Of course, of course. All three misses, please follow me.”

Bi Yushan sneered coldly, “That’s hilarious. A little beggar is regarded as miss—just because Luoqian is engaged to Young Master Luo, she’s pretending to be a miss in this Luo residence.”

Tang Ran’s fingers holding the blind cane tightened then slowly loosened. She quietly spoke toward the attendant, “Can we go now?”

”Yes….”

The attendant didn’t even dare to speak loudly this time and only carefully led the three of them through the outdoor promenade behind the side building towards the main building.

On the way, the attendant originally intended to slow down his pace to take care of Tang Ran who was unable to see, but Bi Yushan could tell what he was thinking.

After a few words of urging, the young girl, who was considered a female miss of the Luo family, simply dragged the attendant to speedwalk like they were running.

Seeing the girl holding the blind cane behind him getting farther and farther away, the attendant became anxious: “Miss Yushan, Miss Tang Ran is also a guest. This isn’t right—”

”What’s wrong with that!” Bi Yushan dragged the attendant to walk quickly while smiling proudly at Tang Luo, “I’ll take the blame if something happens.”

Attendant: “But….”

”But what? How can you not distinguish between the important and unimportant?” Bi Yushan scolded, “This eldest miss of the Tang family beside me is the future female master of the Luo family. That little girl will be thrown out by the Tang family sooner or later. What’s the point of you treating her as a guest?”

”……”

The attendant couldn’t argue with this person, and had to no choice but to be dragged away after half-heartedly resisting.

Tang Ran’s figure soon disappeared from their view. After entering the main building, Bi Yushan proudly held Tang Luoqian with a light smile, “This Luo family manor is like a maze. Let’s see if your cheap sister will be able to offer my grandfather birthday congratulations today!”

”Doing this, isn’t it too much?” Tang Luoqian was somewhat pleased but also uneasy.

”What ‘too much’? She’s a little beggar who returned to the Tang family to grab the family fortune from your father. She deserves to be taught a lesson.”

”……”

”Come on, don’t think about that irrelevant person!” Bi Yushan pushed her a little, “I’m sure my older cousin is in the upstairs balcony. This is your first time officially meeting him, right?”

At the mention of Luo Zhan, Tang Luoqian blushed, “En.”

”Don’t be embarrassed, ah. It won’t be long before he’s your fiancé.” Bi Yushan laughed. “I don’t know how many people envy you!”

Tang Luoqian coud quickly see the second floor. Stopping at the balcony’s entrance, she nervously spoke: “Everyone says he really isn’t easy to get along with.”

”My older cousin truly has a cold temper. He’s always indifferent to everyone, and it’s especially scary when he gets angry.” Bi Yushan mouth twitched. “But it can’t be helped. Who let him have disastrously-good looks and insanely high IQ—entering K University’s Junior Division at 14 years, and is the Luo family’s most favored young master. Who knows how many people cupped him in their palms since childhood till now. Under such circumstances, him having a tame personality would actually be strange. “

”You’re right…”

”But you’re going to be his fiancée! You guys have plenty of time to get along, what are you afraid of! Go on, let’s go in and see.”

Tang Luoqian took a deep breath, “Okay.”

When the attendant led Tang Luoqian and Bi Yushan in, Luo Zhan’s position had a good view and saw them immediately.

”Hey, here we go!”

”The one on the left is Bi Yushan. Next to her is the Tang family’s eldest miss, right? Sure enough, she has some potential to be a beauty, huh?”

”You’re really not wrong. There’s nothing to criticize whether it’s her appearance or figure. Young Master Luo’s luck with women isn’t shallow.”

”Hey? Didn’t they say that little blind illegitimate daughter of the Tang family was coming too? Why don’t we see her?”

”Oh yeah, why is it only those two?”

”……”

Luo Zhan was the first to discover this problem.

Failing to verify whether the Tang family’s ‘Tang Ran’ was the little girl he wanted to see, his original lazy smile fell the moment they entered.

Dropping his eyes with no interest, Luo Zhan stood up expressionlessly and walked out.

A few people beside him blankly watched.

”This fiancée is so honorable that master Luo intends to greet her personally?”

Luo Zhan had just walked a few steps, when the attendant who led the two over walked hurriedly and stopped before him.

”Young master….”

Luo Zhan raised his eyes, “Something wrong?”

”Miss Yushan said she wanted to teach the Tang family’s youngest miss a lesson, leaving her behind on the way here. That little girl is blind, I’m really afraid something will happen….. Eh, young master?”

At a loss, the attendant turned around, watching Luo Zhan’s back as he suddenly stepped away and walked out without waiting for him to finish.

Standing at the entrance of the balcony, Tang Luoqian heard a voice and looked up.

Looking at the young man walking towards her, her face couldn’t help reddening. Her mind silently counted the distance between the other party and herself.

Three steps, two steps, one step….

Tang Luoqian plucked up enough courage, looking up with a red face:

”Luo—”

The word ‘Zhan’ failed to come out.

Luo Zhan, with a cold, calamity-bringing face, walked past her without a sideways glance.
