C4 A Familiar Voice

Lee Xiaofei straightened her back but did not continue. Just as Cao Lanruo wanted to ask, she heard a familiar voice from behind.

"One Wellington steak, one vegetable salad..."

Lyu Dongjun took the menu from the waiter and ordered two dishes. He handed the menu to Guu Xuanyang who was sitting across from him with a displeased expression.

"Yes, sir." The waiter finished writing down the dishes and looked at Guu Xuanyang.

Guu Xuanyang took the menu and flipped through it a few times. He found that he had no appetite at all. He casually pointed to a tomato beef belly on the menu. "That's it."

The waiter was a little confused. He asked in a low voice, "Sir, do you only want a tomato beef belly?"

Guu Xuanyang raised his eyebrows. His face was full of displeasure. "Of course!"

"Ok, please wait a moment." The waiter took the menu and left.

Cao Lanruo only felt that the voice behind her was very familiar. She turned her head gently and saw a man sitting with his back to her. The person sitting in front of the man was the person she accidentally entered the room and was chased away. What a coincidence.

Cao Lanruo raised her head and looked around. She seemed to be looking for a familiar figure. She turned her head and realized that the person sitting behind her was him.

When she looked up again, Lee Xiaofei's cheeks were rosy. Not only did she move her body, but she also pushed all the dishes placed in front of her into the table, leaving only a tomato beef belly.

Cao Lanruo opened her mouth and asked, "Are you alright?" What, you don't want to eat these?"

Lee Xiaofei looked up at Cao Lanruo with a troubled expression. Her eyes could not help but glance behind Cao Lanruo and said in a small voice, "Lower your voice. Those who do not know would think that I am a big stomach king!"

Cao Lanruo seemed to have understood something. She thought of the man who also ordered tomato beef and felt that the two of them were quite compatible, be it looks or preferences.

Cao Lanruo ate half a steak and started to eat the salad. The two of them had finished their meal and left the restaurant. At this time, Lee Xiaofei stretched and looked at the car leaving the window. She pulled back the food that had been moved inside.

"Unfortunately, it's getting cold."

Cao Lanruo shook her head and looked in the direction of the car outside the window. She felt a kind of unknown feeling in her heart. This kind of feeling was unprecedented.

In Cao Lanruo's heart, regardless of whether it was the ignorant past or the unreachable future, she could never be like a carefree and innocent girl, falling in love, quarreling, breaking up and getting back together.

She could not afford to fall in love. Even if she did, she could not afford to waste her youth.

Because she was Cao Lanruo. It was only because she was born in one of the four great families, the Cao family. Her parents did not give her a younger brother or sister, the sole successor of the Cao family.

Sometimes Cao Lanruo thought that if there were no four great families in this world, and there was no one that the four great families needed to protect. Then she wouldn't be like this.

Thinking up to here, Cao Lanruo's gaze was chaotic as she looked at Lee Xiaofei who was wolfing down the food in front of her. She was really envious. She envied a rich and wealthy young lady who lived a comfortable life. Although she was accused of biting off old age, her life was carefree and she did not have any worries.

Cao Lanruo and Lee Xiaofei walked out of the restaurant and returned home. The two of them were neighbors. After parting ways with Lee Xiaofei at the door of the house, Cao Lanruo entered the house and found that the house was still empty. There was only her alone.

No, she was not alone in the house. That father who was her only family member in the world was buried in the secret room all day long, wholeheartedly studying his unique medical skills.

Therefore, every time she returned home, the house was so quiet that it didn't seem like there was anyone angry about it. In the long run, she would only treat it as home. She was the only one.

Cao Lanruo went into the house and changed into her house clothes. She took a bath at the same time. The cool water flowed along the end of her hair and fell on the cold marble floor. Cao Lanruo took out a pure white towel from the bathroom shelf and wiped it.

Cao Lanruo looked at the mirror in front of her and was a little surprised. In the mirror, her face looked red. This made her think of Lee Xiaofei in the restaurant.

What was different about her appearance from hers? Lee Xiaofei was shy when she saw someone she liked. Then what about her?

Cao Lanruo blew her hair dry and walked straight into Cao's father's secret room.

Sure enough, Cao's father was in black clothes, looking down to develop the medicine on the table. When he saw that the door to the secret room was opened, he did not raise his head. He only said lightly, "Class is over?"
