Chapter 1157: Chapter 1157: Giving Face or Not Chapter 1157: Chapter 1157: Giving Face or Not Luo Yuqing pulled Luo Ziling into a nearby coffee house, where they stayed for half the day.
Luo Ziling actually hoped that Luo Yuqing was his sister, so he was also shocked by today’s results.
However, he wasn’t as devastated as Luo Yuqing, so today he was comforting her, trying to cheer her up.
“Junior, I always hoped you weren’t my brother so I could rightfully pursue you, but now, I’m just feeling down and have no other thoughts,” Luo Yuqing said, stroking Luo Ziling’s cheeks with a touch of lancholy. “What’s wrong with ?”
“Sleep on it tonight,” Luo Ziling laughed, “Get up early tomorrow, and I’ll continue to join you for morning exercise.”
“Alright,” Luo Yuqing didn’t say much else and gloomily agreed.
The two sat in the coffee house for several hours, and at seven o’clock in the evening, they finally left.
Luo Ziling planned to go back to his dorm first, as Cao Jianhui had sent him many ssages, warning that if he didn’t return soon, he would be kicked out of the dorm.
But just as Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing returned to the school and waved goodbye, preparing to head to the dormitory, he received a call from Lin Lan.
In the evening, Lin Lan took the initiative to call him, which was very surprising to Luo Ziling.
“I need to talk to you, I’ll be at your school in ten minutes, wait for at the entrance,” Lin Lan said quickly, then hung up the phone as soon as the call connected.
After only saying “hello,” Luo Ziling held his phone feeling sowhat bemused.
Still, he followed Lin Lan’s instruction and waited at the school entrance.
Exactly ten minutes later, a military Humvee appeared in his view.
Luo Ziling hurriedly waved his hands; he was worried Lin Lan might not recognize him.
Lin Lan drove more fiercely than most n; she sped towards him, then slamd on the brakes, stopping the vehicle right in front of Luo Ziling.
The Humvee ca at him so fast it gave Luo Ziling quite a scare.
He yanked open the passenger door of the Humvee and jumped in.
“What are you doing, driving so recklessly,” Luo Ziling complained angrily, “Trying to murder your own husband?”
Lin Lan didn’t expect Luo Ziling to start off by scolding her and was stunned for a mont before anger rose within her.
A pistol magically appeared in her hand, aid directly at Luo Ziling: “Keep spouting nonsense, and see if I won’t blow your head off.”
“I don’t believe you,” Luo Ziling defiantly stared at Lin Lan, “Even with a hundred tis the courage, you wouldn’t dare to shoot.”
Lin Lan grew even angrier and placed her finger on the trigger.
“The safety isn’t even off. Who are you trying to scare?” Luo Ziling snatched the gun from Lin Lan, “You taught how to shoot, and I’ve studied quite a bit on my own; I’m very familiar with guns now, so don’t try to scare with this thing ever again.”
Speaking, Luo Ziling tucked the gun back into the holster strapped to Lin Lan’s leg and, while she wasn’t looking, touched her face.
“Did you need sothing from today? Or were you planning to use force on again?”
“Can’t get ivory out of a dog’s mouth,” Lin Lan’s face turned a little pink as she couldn’t help but curse.
“If dog’s mouths could spit out ivory, a lot of people would be raising dogs at ho.”
“This is for you,” Lin Lan, tired of bantering with Luo Ziling, tossed a small bag to him, “Take it and check it out, but rember, don’t let anyone else see it.”
“What’s inside?” Luo Ziling was a bit surprised.
“Sothing I promised you last ti,” Lin Lan seed a bit impatient.
“What did you promise ?” Luo Ziling couldn’t rember what Lin Lan had promised him.
Lin Lan got angry again; that damn fool, he actually forgot sothing she solemnly promised him.
But ultimately, she managed to suppress her anger and said coldly: “So people’s classified information.”
Luo Ziling just rembered, last ti Lin Lan had indeed promised him to find blackmail material on so people.
However, he had thought Lin Lan was just saying it casually, and after coming back, having so many things to do, he forgot about it.
Surprisingly, after Lin Lan returned, she had gathered the blackmail material and personally delivered it to him.
“Then I’ll gladly accept this generous gift, thank you.” Luo Ziling really wanted to give Lin Lan a hug, or a kiss as a thank you.
But there were many people paying attention to the car, and Lin Lan had a cold deanor, so he didn’t feel the impulse.
Lin Lan remained silent and Luo Ziling didn’t know what to say, creating an indescribable awkwardness between the two in the car.
“Do you have plans for tonight?” It was Luo Ziling who first broke the awkward silence.
“I haven’t had dinner yet.”
Luo Ziling was quick to respond this ti, “Then let treat you.”
Lin Lan didn’t refuse, but she didn’t speak either.
“There’s a new sour and spicy fish restaurant nearby that’s quite good, shall I take you there?” Luo Ziling suggested in a low voice.
“Okay!” Lin Lan responded very simply and decisively.
After Luo Ziling gave the specific address, Lin Lan drove them there.
Fortunately, when Lin Lan reached the vicinity of the sour and spicy fish restaurant, she didn’t park recklessly but instead parked in a nearby paid parking lot.
The paid parking lot was free for vehicles with military plates, even though Lin Lan was in civilian clothes.
“It’s nice to have so privileges,” Luo Ziling muttered.
“I’m not dining and dashing!” Lin Lan felt like kicking Luo Ziling.
“I’m saying, isn’t your outfit a bit too monochromatic?” Luo Ziling pointed at Lin Lan’s black outfit, “Which girl dresses like you, always in these personality-concealing clothes?”
“Yes,” Lin Lan stopped, speaking earnestly, “You’ve seen several.”
Luo Ziling was instantly defeated by Lin Lan’s deliberately serious deanor.
She was right, there were indeed so.
Both Shanque and another woman wore similar styles of clothing.
However, once seated in the private room, after taking a good look at Lin Lan, Luo Ziling still suggested, “You could wear different clothes when you’re off duty. During your youth, isn’t it nice to show off your own beauty in various ways?”
Lin Lan didn’t argue, just looked at Luo Ziling weirdly.
Actually, today Lin Lan had dressed up a bit.
She had grood her eyebrows and combed her hair very carefully.
Though she hadn’t applied mascara, lipstick, or foundation, it was already quite a rare effort for her.
Lin Lan bowed her head to drink tea, but Luo Ziling’s eyes remained on her.
Lin Lan wasn’t annoyed, she sowhat enjoyed Luo Ziling’s gaze, thus she quietly maintained her posture.
“How about, later I accompany you to buy clothes, my treat, what do you say? Consider it a thank you gift, no, a gift for you.”
“I won’t go,” Lin Lan refused very straightforwardly.
“I want to see you in different clothes, looking beautiful. Won’t you grant this favor?”
“No!” Lin Lan responded very decisively.
“Really not giving in?”
“…”
