Chapter 905 I Want to Marry You, Not Because of a Public Rel
e scoff, not bothering to take it seriously."Zhao Team!" Huo Shaoting spoke softly, "What procedures do I need to go through"Team Zhao had the receipts ready long ago."Lawyer Huo, just sign your name...The first floor dining room of the Huo residence.
When Jiang Lan heard someone downstairs, the Huo family acted as if it wasn't unexpected. They had already set his bowl and chopsticks... but at the same time, they also placed a bottle of baijiu.
Zhang Chongguang smiled brightly: "Lan Ting, it's so nice to have you visit my home! I've heard that you're a real heavy drinker at social gatherings, but unfortunately, my leg isn't cooperating well, and Yunsi's drinking capacity is just average. So I specially invited Lu Shuo over to help you out and make sure you have a good time!"
As he spoke, he pulled out another bottle of baijiu and placed it in front of Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan wryly smiled.
Knowing this was a tough situation, he simply sat down and accepted it with composure: “Brother Chongguang’s words are right. It should be me keeping you company!”
He poured himself three cups of white liquor in a small cup and drank them all down.
without even raising an eyebrow.
Zhang Chongguang thought to himself, "My body is amazing!"
He winked at Lu Shuo, on this table, only Lu Shuo was the one who fought!
Lu Shuo smiled faintly.
He pulled out a cigarette, taking an easy puff. His expression was relaxed, the kind that only comes from a man deeply content in his marriage and family life...
He certainly wouldn't embarrass Jiang Lan right away, with his own older brother and sister-in-law watching.
He's got this! >
Over there, Jiang Lan respectfully offered drinks to Huo Shaoting and Wen Man, addressing them as "uncle" and "aunt." However, their relationship was almost completely transparent, just short of calling them "father" and "mother."
He Shao-Ting didn't make things difficult for him. He lowered himself and it was enough to have a few juniors.
Jiang Lan listened to the report and accepted the wine with meekness.
Of course, he wouldn't be a pushover in his humility. Showing weakness by being completely submissive would not do... So when Huo Xi and Huo Jiao went downstairs, they saw Jiang Lan had taken off his expensive coat, with a cigarette between his lips, talking to several of the Huo family members. He had one hand resting on the armrest of Huo Jiao's dining chair, showing a hint of intimacy.
When Huo Jiao arrived, he immediately got up and pulled open the restaurant door for her.
She smiled faintly and then chatted with the men again.
Huo Jiao glanced at him. He seemed to have had quite a bit to drink, but his face was just slightly flushed, adding a touch of roguishness to his appearance.
She knew in her heart that her brothers had stepped in for her, but she didn't care.
She didn't even attend to Jiang Lan with diligence, but instead, he cooked for her in his spare time. When talking to others, he spoke clearly and politely...
John Zhang: Wow! At least eight taels!
Lu Shuò: I've met my match!
It took two hours of persuasion, a mix of soft words and hard pressure, to finally get Jiang Lan to agree... Lu Shuo loosened his tie and let out a long sigh: "If it were just about drinking, I'm not sure I could beat him!"
Of course, he wouldn't have lost when he was younger.
But now, Jiang Lan was indeed at his peak, while they were all nearly in their forties...where could they compare to someone in their thirties
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms.
Jiang Lan, supported by a servant, was brought to Huo Jiao's bedroom to rest for a while. Otherwise, returning to the Jiang family like this would be too unbecoming!
Jiang Lan, who seldom got drunk, slept until the evening.
Upon waking, the person was lying on the couch.
A scent of the boudoir drifted to his nose, letting him know where he was. He lay there lazily, not wanting to move at all!
Downstairs, the sound of clinking cups and plates could be heard.
It seems like it's dinner time again.
Let's have another round of drinks. He really can't hold it anymore. Lu Shuo is the best drinker in the Huo family... Seeing that he was almost done, I had several more cups with him and knocked him out.
The lights were blinding, so Jiang Lan shielded her eyes with the back of her hand.
A little boy tiptoed in, taking his hand away. Jiang Lan listened and saw that it was a five or six-year-old kid... He looked like a real person, and at first glance you could tell he was born to Huo Xi and Zhang Chongguang.
Just like her father, who is so cunning and wicked.
But the child Jiang Lan didn't dislike it, and even liked it very much because it was handsome.
He leaned sideways, pulling Xiao Huo Xing closer to sit beside him.
Little Huo Xing squeaked, imitating his father's voice: "Dad says, we have to knock that surname Jiang down again tonight!"
She thought it was very similar.
Jiang Lan couldn't help but laugh.
Even though he has a headache now, it doesn't affect his good mood, maybe the atmosphere is good!
As the eldest grandson of the Jiang family, he carried a heavy burden on his shoulders. None of his younger cousins and sisters were serious about anything, they only knew how to spend money lavishly... But the Huo family was different, they were very loving!
Jiang Lan, however, was unaware of this.
Back then, those few guys fought with you tooth and nail. For Huo Xi, Zhang Chongguang didn't know how many punches he took from the two brothers, he couldn't even count them.
Jiang Lan touched Xiao Huo Xing's head and asked softly, "Why did you tell me"
Xiao Huo Xing thought seriously for a moment: "Auntie told me to tell you!"
Ho Jiao
Jiang Lan heard this and felt a warmth spread through her heart, but Xiao Huo Xing continued, "Auntie said she's worried that if you die, her reputation won't be salvaged and she won't get her hands on the shares!"
Jiang Lan listened: ...
Xiaohòu Xing lay down, and looked at him carefully. He touched his face and high nose, and finally, like a little adult, he showed a very approving expression: "He is handsome! I represent the moon and agree that you should be with Aunt!"
Jiang Lan listened: ...
Xiaohuo jumped off the sofa and ran away!
Jiang Lan shuddered at the thought of that dinner last night. He lay there, completely unwilling to move.
After a long while, the sound of a car starting up came from downstairs, followed by the opening of the bedroom door.
Huo Jiao walked in.
Jiang Lan tilted his head to look at her. She had changed into a different dress, her long hair braided into a fishbone braid, which softened her beauty and made her appear more pure... But she looked good no matter what.
Jiang Lan reached out and beckoned her closer. When she sat beside him, he pulled her even closer and closed his eyes, murmuring softly, "Where did your brothers go to buy wine"
"Humph," Huo Jiao said, "They're home! You're off the hook!"
"Then what about us"
Huo Jiao thought about it carefully and said, "Take advantage of the fact that they just left, you should pack up and leave quickly! Staying for dinner would seem too intimate!"
Jiang Lan thought about it, and it was indeed the case.
The eldest son of the Huo family, his own son-in-law, and his nephew all declined to stay for dinner. It would be inappropriate for him to stay behind. Besides, he hadn't even successfully proposed marriage yet.
But at this moment, he was reluctant to leave again.
He didn't speak, he just lightly took her wrist and placed it in his palm, gently playing with it... It seemed they hadn't had such an intimate and peaceful moment.
In the past, when we were close, there was only passion.
Later, it became quiet again, and the intimacy was gone.
Now is the perfect time!
He liked her, and he could actually feel that she liked him too. It's just that girls are reserved and wouldn't say it...
Jiang Lan listened and whispered again, "I want to marry you, not because of a crisis PR, but because I truly want to marry you!"
Ho Jiao gazed at him…
Her appearance was incredibly soft, a side of her he had never seen before.
He pulled her down, his soft lips lightly touching hers, not a deep kiss.
A light nudge of the nose.
Insanely intimate.
In such an intimate moment, he spoke in a hushed voice: "I have to go. It wouldn't be right if it got too dark! I'll come visit your parents again another day. Are you free tomorrow"
He wants to go on a date with her... see that, couldn't he She was deeply wounded… She had loved Lu Qian, been spoiled by him so much, how could she just walk away so easily How could she so readily fall for someone else!But, if we don'...
