Chapter 171: 168. The Past, Memories!
Listening to the familiar song on stage, Zhang Ran slowly closed his eyes. Scenes flashed through his mind, and a faint, nostalgic smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
"Zhang Ran, Zhang Ran, do you think we should have a son or a daughter when we get married in the future?" The girl ran ahead, and Zhang Ran chased after her!
"A daughter. Why would we want a son? They only know how to make people angry!"
"No, I insist on a son!"
"Fine, then we'll have a son!"
"No, I've changed my mind now. I want a daughter!"
"Fine, then we'll have a daughter!"
"Then let's have twins, one boy and one girl!"
"Mm, whatever you want!"
The man's voice was always full of doting affection.
In a park filled with the atmosphere of the era, Zhang Ran and the girl snuggled together. The girl's long hair was blown by the breeze onto Zhang Ran's cheek, and a faint, delicate fragrance drifted into Zhang Ran's nose, making him involuntarily take a deep breath.
"Zhang Ran, Zhang Ran, will you be good to me in the future?"
"Of course, I will be good to you for the rest of my life!" Zhang Ran said in a firm voice.
"Then let's be together!" The girl said without any hesitation, as if Zhang Ran's words were enough to fill her with courage and make her willing to risk everything!
"Okay! We'll be together, never to be separated!"
That day, they officially became a couple!
"Zhang Ran, Zhang Ran, if I were like the heroine in a movie and got cancer and died, would you find someone else?" The girl's eyes were red and swollen at this moment.
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and spit it out!" Zhang Ran knew the girl was joking, but he still became nervous all of a sudden.
Seeing Zhang Ran's nervous expression, the girl laughed instantly. Her eyes, which had been red from crying over the movie, crinkled into smiles. She could fully feel Zhang Ran's sincere heart.
"But seriously, Zhang Ran, if I really die, you must find someone else. I don't allow you to miss me!" The girl's train of thought when in love seemed to jump around quite a bit.
"Don't be angry. I was just saying it. I can't bear to die; I still have to give birth to a bunch of babies for you!" Seeing Zhang Ran's furrowed brows, the girl used her soft little hand to rub the center of his brows in a charmingly naive way.
"Grandpa, you're crying." Susu nervously wiped the corner of Zhang Ran's eye with her small hand, her voice carrying a hint of a sob.
To Susu, Grandpa was now the person she was closest to, other than her mother. She did not want Grandpa to be sad.
Although Susu's voice was small, Zhang Sicheng and Zhang Siyan were both sitting beside Zhang Ran. Hearing this, they also saw the tear tracks flowing from the corners of Zhang Ran's eyes, and both of them fell silent.
At this moment, they seemed to be able to fully feel what Zhang Ran was thinking!
"Grandpa, Grandpa, don't cry, don't cry. Susu and I will both be very good." Zhang Xiaotao also ran over from his seat.
"Good, good, good, don't cry, don't cry. I'm just missing your grandma a little, it's fine." Zhang Ran wiped away his tears and said with a smile.
Zhou Min and the other three were completely confused about what had happened. When Fang Hua called out the words "Mr. Zhang," they had never imagined it was Zhang Ran.
Even when they saw Qian Li and the others all looking at Zhang Ran, and even when Fang Hua's gaze was fixed on this section.
Moreover, they were quickly drawn in by the story Fang Hua was telling and stopped paying attention to these things. By the time the song ended and they came back to their senses, they saw this scene.
Zhang Ran smiled at everyone and said, "Sorry, I've dampened the mood. Don't look at me, everyone, keep listening to the songs."
For the time that followed, Fang Hua also focused his attention on the concert. After all, this was something everyone had spent money on tickets to support him for. He could not let personal matters interfere with this concert; this was his principle.
As for Zhang Ran's side, Zhang Xiaotao never left his grandfather's side again. He just quietly snuggled in his grandfather's arms with his younger sister Susu. Even though his little legs were already very tired, he still did not move.
Zhang Xiaotao and Susu did not know why their grandfather was crying. They seemed to want to use their warm little bodies to give their grandfather some comfort, just as their grandfather would always hold them in his arms when they were sad.
Every time they were held in their grandfather's arms, they felt very warm and very safe. The things that made them sad did not seem so sad anymore.
Zhang Sicheng and Zhang Siyan were also in no mood to listen to the concert at this time, and both of them fell somewhat silent.
The concert ended at 10:30. Just as Fang Hua finished, he looked toward Zhang Ran's side again, only to find that Zhang Ran and his group had already disappeared.
This left Fang Hua feeling somewhat disappointed; he had wanted to properly thank his benefactor.
However, after he returned backstage, his manager immediately walked over.
"Brother Hua, a person claiming to be Mr. Zhang called just now, saying that if you have time, you can go to his house for a visit." The manager said hurriedly.
Although he had been with Fang Hua for over a decade, he did not know about the matter Fang Hua had mentioned earlier. At this moment, his curiosity was no less than that of the fans outside.
"Really? Give me the phone." Fang Hua said immediately.
"Uh, I don't know if it's true or false." The manager said this.
It was a very simple matter for Zhang Ran to find out the number of Fang Hua's manager. Not to mention anything else, even people like Ning Qing could find the number in a very short time.
"Mr. Zhang?" Fang Hua dialed the number.
"I am Zhang Ran. If Mr. Fang has time, you can come to our house for a visit." Zhang Ran's voice came through the phone.
"Alright, I will come to visit Mr. Zhang tomorrow morning. By the way, this is my personal mobile number, please take note of it." Fang Hua reported his private number.
After chatting for a couple more sentences, Zhang Ran said, "Thank you for your songs, thank you very much!"
"These are all things I should do. If it weren't for Mr. Zhang, I would have probably..." Fang Hua's words were interrupted by Zhang Ran before he could finish.
"That time was just a matter of convenience. You don't need to keep it on your mind. Even without me, you would have at most suffered a little bit; they wouldn't have dared to go too far."
Fang Hua smiled and said nothing. He knew this was Zhang Ran being polite. They wouldn't have dared to do anything to him?
He, Fang Hua, really did not have that kind of confidence at the time, especially after he had experienced the dark moments of Hong Kong cinema.
After hanging up the phone, Fang Hua looked at his manager and said, "Go and prepare some generous gifts for me. Never mind, I'll prepare them myself."
Seeing Fang Hua's solemn expression, the manager once again deeply realized how much Fang Hua valued this Mr. Zhang.
"Also, help me cancel all my schedule for tomorrow. My itinerary information must also be kept completely confidential. Mr. Zhang does not want anyone to disturb him, and there is no need for exposure. Do you understand?" Fang Hua said very seriously.
Seeing Fang Hua's expression, the manager knew that Fang Hua was not joking, so he quickly promised, "Don't worry, Brother Hua, it will absolutely not be leaked."
PS: Starting tomorrow, I will speed up the pace!
