Chapter 325: Lu Family Yuanxi

After the meal, everyone got into a large G-Wagon.

It was clear that Wang Ling was quite thoughtful; there were two nanny vans waiting outside the restaurant.

Preparing two was likely for Lu Ran's sake.

It is normal for River Estuary Realm experts to like quiet and solitude.

Young Master Wang probably didn't expect Lu Ran to be so kind!

To interact more with Lu Ran, Wang Ling didn't use his family's driver but chose to drive himself.

Lu Ran was once yielded to by everyone to sit in the passenger seat.

Lu Ran said nothing and directly sent the large Niu Zhengzheng to the passenger seat.

You still want to sit in the back and squeeze together with my sister?

In your dreams!

Until the vehicle left the capital and got on the highway, Lu Ran suddenly realized one thing.

Brother Undead is driving,

so wouldn't this car become a hearse?

Hm...

At the beginning of worshipping the gods, when Lu Ran sat in Sister Deng Yuxiang's Panamera, he would still sigh at the wealth of a rich daughter.

At that time, he hadn't yet completed his separation from ordinary society.

Now that Lu Ran was in a more expensive top-spec G-Wagon, he had no thoughts at all.

He had already stepped onto the path to the heavens; how could his gaze focus on things like luxury houses and luxury cars?

Even if you take a step back,

no matter how expensive a luxury house is, can it be more expensive than Luo Xianshan?

No matter how expensive a luxury car is, can it be more expensive than a Divine Weapon?

Lu Ran could even possess a Demon Cave, Galaxy Bay...

It's a pity that on this trip to Luo Xianshan, plans didn't change as fast as reality.

Lu Ran only accompanied his fiancée to look at flowers, grass, and the sunset, not the galaxy that crossed the night sky.

"Sister Jiang Ruyi has also advanced to the River Estuary Realm; she's so amazing."

Qiao Yuanxi sat in the middle of the back seat, habitually leaning against Guan Yiren.

She turned her head to look at Lu Ran on the other side and whispered: "I miss her."

Lu Ran looked at the receding scenery outside the window: "We'll see; on the fifteenth of the first lunar month, I'll try my best to bring her back to celebrate your birthday."

"Really?" Qiao Yuanxi's eyes lit up.

"Hm." Lu Ran nodded.

Of course it's true; after celebrating your birthday, I should leave.

There is no set date for my return.

Qiao Yuanxi: "By the way, Brother, how far have you two gotten?"

Lu Ran thought for a moment: "Talking about marriage."

"Yo yo yo yo yo~~~" Qiao Yuanxi was full of excitement, making strange, coquettish noises.

Lu Ran: "."

Did you touch an electric socket?

Qiao Yuanxi suddenly turned into a copycat, shaking her little head: "Talking about marriage~"

Lu Ran's face was full of black lines.

In the black, there was a hint of red.

He considered himself thick-skinned, but since seeing little Yuanxi, he had already blushed twice.

Lu Ran also considered himself to have decent trash-talking skills.

But this sister...

Her little mouth is equally skilled!

Guan Yiren looked at the mischievous little Yuanxi with a hint of doting in her eyes.

She turned her eyes slightly and secretly looked at Lu Ran.

When they first met, it was in the Soul-Splitting Demon Cave; her attitude gradually changed from doubt to affirmation.

When they met the second time, it was in the Night Charm Demon Cave.

Her attitude gradually changed from approval to appreciation and admiration.

Seeing him again this time, only respect remained in her heart.

Lu Ran's level of excellence far exceeded her expectations.

It's a pity that the flower already has an owner, and they are childhood sweethearts.

The noble and cold disciple of Jian Yi has her own reserve and pride, so naturally, she wouldn't do anything dramatic.

Feelings arise, but stop at propriety.

Everything is as Wang Ling said; being able to meet him is already a blessing of three lifetimes.

Looking up at him from afar, watching him step toward the heavens, can also be considered a fortunate event in life.

Coincidentally, Lu Ran also turned his head to look over.

Their gazes intertwined; a hint of panic flashed in Guan Yiren's eyes, and she immediately looked away.

Lu Ran: "."

Don't do this, cold sister.

Don't make trouble!

Comrades are fine, anything else is out of the question!

However, in the future, he could try to develop her into a believer of the Lu Sect?

Don't these teammates of little Yuanxi represent not just themselves, but the vast network of relationships behind them?

Lu Ran didn't think that just because he had a Sea Realm Cheng Li under his command, he could look down on the human world from on high.

Quite the contrary!

Behind these few people, who knows what old monsters might be pulled out!

Anyone who has read fantasy novels knows:

Old things are the most terrifying!

Little Yuanxi living and dying with her teammates is a good connection.

Wang Ling spoke softly: "Lu Tianjiao..."

"That title is too polite." Lu Ran said casually, "If we are the same age, my birthday should be earlier than yours."

Wang Ling laughed: "Is that so? I was born in the first lunar month."

Lu Ran looked out the window: "I was also born in the first lunar month, the seventh day."

Wang Ling followed the trend and laughed: "Then you are indeed older than me, so... Brother Ran?"

"Slap!"

Niu Zhengzheng slapped Wang Ling on the back of the head, his raspy voice grating: "You're really comparing?

You have to call him Brother Ran regardless of age! I've already called him that!"

Wang Ling: "."

Guan Yiren frowned slightly: "He's driving."

Qiao Yuanxi whispered: "My brother is so strong, even if the car flips, we probably won't die."

Lu Ran:???

Wang Ling said: "The seventh is good, the Day of Man."

Niu Zhengzheng was a bit embarrassed and took the conversation to eliminate the awkwardness: "What is the Day of Man?"

Qiao Yuanxi smiled: "The seventh day of the first lunar month is the Day of Man Festival, also called the Human Victory Festival.

Legend has it that this day is the birthday of the human race~"

"Oh?" Niu Zhengzheng rubbed his head with his large hand, "This birthday is well chosen, the birthday of the human race."

Lu Ran was also very impressed.

Did I choose that?

That was a joint venture by Mom and Dad; they were the ones who studied it!

The group chatted and laughed, and a few hours later, the vehicle arrived at Rain Alley City.

The Lu siblings were sent to the downstairs of their unit, and after agreeing on tomorrow's itinerary, Wang Ling drove away.

Lu Ran didn't need to worry about their accommodation; they had arranged everything long before the squad decided to guard Rain Alley.

"It's been a long time since I've been back!"

Qiao Yuanxi hugged Lu Ran's arm, looking at the unit building in front of her.

Lu Ran dragged little Yuanxi's suitcase with one hand and laughed: "How old were you when you left? Do you still have an impression?"

"How could I not." Although Qiao Yuanxi said this, her memories were indeed not many.

When their parents divorced, Lu Ran was 5, and Lu Yuanxi was 4.

Although the high-speed rail from the capital to Rain Alley is only 1 hour.

But it was this short one-hour journey that Lu Yuanxi had taken for more than ten years.

Of course, the reason she could return here was not for this old house, but because of one person.

If it weren't for Lu Ran's persistence in this place, this second-generation from the capital, the young lady of the Qiao family, would probably never have returned here in her life.

Now, Lu Yuanxi stood in front of this building again.

However, she was already the golden branch and jade leaf, Qiao Yuanxi, nearly 18 years old.

"Dad is so cold, he didn't even say he'd pick me up to play." Qiao Yuanxi muttered softly.

Lu Ran's forward steps stopped.

Qiao Yuanxi felt a panic in her heart, and she hugged Lu Ran's arm even tighter: "Brother~"

She wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it.

Lu Ran was silent for a moment, then smiled again: "You were living so well in the capital, he probably didn't have the face to pick you up to this small place."

Or perhaps, was she stopped by Mother?

Lu Ran suddenly remembered that this was not Qiao Yuanxi's return to Rain Alley after more than ten years.

Back then, she and her mother came over to attend their father's memorial service.

However, that time, Qiao Yuanxi didn't return to this family home either.

"Forget it." Qiao Yuanxi felt guilty for her loose tongue.

She couldn't help but hug Lu Ran's arm even tighter.

The joys and sorrows of ordinary people still need people to observe.

River Estuary Realm experts are different!

If Lu Ran's personal emotional fluctuations are too intense, they can directly affect the surrounding environmental atmosphere.

This also objectively shows that the higher the human race's strength realm, the closer the connection with heaven and earth.

"Why are you hugging so tight? I need to get the key." Lu Ran said helplessly.

"Mmph." Qiao Yuanxi didn't change her movements, as if she was afraid to let go.

With someone hanging on his side, Lu Ran finally opened the door.

As the anti-theft door opened, Qiao Yuanxi's memory door seemed to have been opened as well.

In the living room, there seemed to be the shadows of two young children chasing and playing.

"Change your shoes."

Lu Ran said softly, and Qiao Yuanxi finally let go.

"Wear your Sister Jiang Ruyi's shoes." Lu Ran picked up a pair of women's slippers and habitually squatted down to help her change shoes.

After changing one, Lu Ran realized!

The shoes were indeed Jiang Ruyi's.

But the person wasn't!

He raised his head and saw Qiao Yuanxi's smiling, pretty appearance.

Her long eyelashes trembled, and her smiling eyes curved: "Having a girlfriend is different, huh? So good at taking care of people?"

Lu Ran rolled his eyes and continued his movements as if resigned to his fate, untying her Martin boots' laces:

"Your Sister Jiang Ruyi only met our mom once, and she inherited this glorious tradition."

Qiao Yuanxi's face was full of smiles, enjoying her brother's gentle actions: "If you didn't change them for her, would she just stand there?"

Lu Ran huffed.

Qiao Yuanxi acted coquettishly: "I want that in the future too~"

"In your dreams!" Lu Ran got up and left, throwing the suitcase directly at the door.

"Hmph!" Qiao Yuanxi wrinkled her little nose, stepped into the house, and looked around.

The furniture was new, but the placement hadn't changed.

Memories were easier to surface.

"Brother!!"

"What's wrong?" Lu Ran flashed out of the bedroom door and looked at the young girl.

Qiao Yuanxi pointed her green onion-like finger at a window in the living room: "I remember now, you snatched my candy there!"

Lu Ran recalled for a moment, his face actually turned red again, but his mouth was tough:

"You were a four-year-old kid, wouldn't your teeth hurt if you ate too much candy?"

Qiao Yuanxi was shocked: "How old are you? Weren't you only five?"

Lu Ran walked into the bedroom, not daring to say anything more.

It was a bit embarrassing.

Qiao Yuanxi curled her lips and finally came to the master bedroom.

Back then, she had privileges and could sleep with Mom and Dad, but Lu Ran couldn't; he was exiled to the small bedroom.

Sleeping in a small bed, covering with a small quilt.

Weak, pitiful, helpless, and snatching candy.

"It's changed, where are Mom and Dad's wedding photos?" Qiao Yuanxi walked into the master bedroom.

"Your Sister Jiang Ruyi and I sleep in this room." Lu Ran pondered for a moment and said, "Stay here for these few days."

Qiao Yuanxi sat on the big bed: "Is that okay?"

Lu Ran: "There is a Fairy Sheep God Statue in the small bedroom; it's not appropriate for you to stay there."

"Oh, right!" Qiao Yuanxi stood up with a flutter.

Lu Ran immediately turned sideways, cleared the path, and watched Qiao Yuanxi walk quickly toward the small bedroom.

When he arrived at the door of the small bedroom, he saw Qiao Yuanxi kneeling in front of the shrine:

"Sorry to disturb you, Fairy Sheep Lord.

Thank you for taking care of my brother all this time, thank you for your love and protection for him..."

Lu Ran leaned against the door frame,

watching her hands clasped together, looking extremely pious.

Listening to little Yuanxi thanking the god for him and asking the god to continue protecting him.

She seemed...

more sincere than when she worshipped the god Flower Lantern.

Gradually, a gentle smile appeared on Lu Ran's face.

Little Yuanxi,

in the future, there will be a place for you among the gods and demons in the sky.

I hope Brother has this ability,

instead of an ending of being smashed to pieces.
