Chapter 652: 609 Like my little daughter (1 update)

"Yeah, we’ve really known each other for a long time. When I first met this kid, he was too stubborn and untamed. Taming him took me quite a bit of time."

"Actually, for a long time, I couldn’t figure out what exactly the connection between him and me was. I could have completely ignored this brash boy, but in the end, it was I who took the initiative to pay attention to him, to actively teach him skills."

"It’s only today that I understand why we had such a connection."

"..."

Su Ruoan didn’t understand, but she didn’t let it show.

"I wonder where the old sir is a professor? Would I have the honor of learning something from you?" Su Ruoan was more curious about this. If he could teach Lu Han skills, could he perhaps teach her as well?

If the old professor was also in the field of medicine, she was genuinely eager to learn more from him.

As doctors, they must not become complacent. They might face new problems and complicated illnesses every day, and if they don’t learn more skills, there will eventually come a day when their current abilities won’t be enough to solve patients’ issues.

"Professor is just what those few call me. I’m not affiliated with any institution, and besides, at my age, I’m well into retirement years. My current research is in high-tech, specifically the Xiao Meng Family robotics project that I’m leading the development of. If you’re interested, you could go to Lu Han’s new home and check out those defective products."

"Xiao Meng isn’t on the market yet. Currently, there are just some defective products being tested by Lu Han and Tang Su."

"I see." Su Ruoan smiled. She had thought his research was in medicine. But a developer of high technology, his title of professor was indeed well-deserved.

"Alright then, I won’t disturb you any longer. I’ll be going back."

"Sure, come over for a chat when you’re free."

"Mhm."

Professor Ming sent his daughter out. When Su Ruoan turned back to say goodbye, Professor Ming couldn’t help but speak up, "Ruowan, you resemble my younger daughter quite a bit. Would you come to keep this lonely old man company and talk sometime?"

"...Sure, sure, but I don’t live in Beijing permanently. In a couple of days, I’ll be heading back to Hua City."

"Alright, I know. It’s no problem, when I have time, I’ll visit you in Hua City."

"...Okay."

After Su Ruoan left, Bai Wei was very worried about her, fearing that the old man might have given her a hard time. When Su Ruoan reported that not only had the old man not given her a hard time, but he also said she resembled his younger daughter and asked her to come over and talk whenever she had time, Bai Wei found it unbelievable and immediately advised Su Ruoan not to go alone in the future, as there were many perverted old men these days.

As the saying goes, an old villain remains a villain; their nature does not change.

Su Ruoan knew Bai Wei was worried about her, but she didn’t think Professor Ming had any ill intentions. She actually felt a complex, indescribable closeness towards him.

She felt quite affectionate.

Especially when he asked her to come over to talk, and mentioned being a lonely old man, it pained her heart.

Moreover, Lu Han had a deep connection with him. Surely Professor Ming couldn’t be bad.

**

Lu Han and Tang Su had finished buying groceries and were heading back when they were stopped by Tan Qiaoyue and forced to take a detour home.

Lu Han phoned the butler to fetch the groceries for him and Tang Su.

Seeing that neither of them was getting out of the car, Tan Qiaoyue ran over and stood in front of the car, urging Lu Han to get out.

Lu Han rolled down the window, and when Tan Qiaoyue saw it, she turned and headed towards the driver’s side, worried that Lu Han might drive away. Along the way, she was touching everything on the car she could hold on to.

Now, Lin Jiaojiao and her brother had escaped from Lin Menmen’s grasp, but Lin Menmen’s death had plunged them into an unbearable predicament.

The drugs that Lin Menmen had been giving them only worked for three months. After three months, without the drugs, what were they to do?

They had no choice but to seek help from Lu Han.

"What’s the matter?" Facing Tan Qiaoyue, Lu Han was rather cold.

If it weren’t for the fact that she was Tan Lixin’s own sister, he wouldn’t even want to roll down this window.

"Lu Han, save us, please," Tan Qiaoyue pleaded, without her previous air of superiority.

"Save you? What do you mean?" Lu Han turned his head, looking at Tan Qiaoyue who appeared perfectly healthy. Where would she need saving from him?

"These years, Lin Menmen, that despicable woman, has been controlling us with medication. We really had no choice. If we didn’t stand with her and bully Sister Jiaojiao, she would use terrifying methods to deal with our whole family. Lu Han, we really had no choice, we were forced."

"Control you with medication? Since when?" Lu Han raised an eyebrow.

"It’s been... many years now," Tan Qiaoyue was unable to specify the exact time.

"Have you had an episode?" Lu Han changed the question.

"Hmm?"

"I mean, without taking the medication, is there anything wrong with your body now?"

"... Uh, not at the moment."

"Then go back and wait. We’ll talk when you start showing symptoms."

Tan Qiaoyue: "..."

So, Lu Han agrees to save them, doesn’t he?

Then why does Lin Wenming’s story differ?

"If you’re not at ease, you can go to the hospital for a blood draw, but I have to tell you, Lin Menmen’s drugs dissolve in the bloodstream, which means blood tests might show normal results."

"..."

Lin Menmen is truly terrifying.

Blood tests can’t detect anything; no wonder she is so brazen.

At this time, the butler came over with the Xiao Meng Family robots. This time, the Menmen robot that came over was in the form of a four-wheeled vehicle with Lu Han and Tang Su’s luggage inside.

"If there’s nothing else, you may go back now."

"Sir, Ma’am, your luggage has arrived," the adorable voice of Menmen number six rang out.

Tan Qiaoyue turned her head to look, and seeing Menmen number six, she wasn’t surprised. Such robots were already in use in many hotels, it’s just that they hadn’t become widespread for family units.

There were also some people who resisted having such robots at home.

The butler came over and helped them move the luggage to the trunk.

"Hmm, thank you; the house is in your hands now. In a couple of days, my mother will send over a box of books, just put them in my study, no need to sort them out."

"Certainly, sir."

"Hmm."

Lu Han drove the car out without saying goodbye to Tan Qiaoyue.

Tan Qiaoyue watched their car pull away, then called Lin Wenming to say that Lu Han had agreed to save them, but they needed to wait until their symptoms manifested.

"Did he really agree?" Lin Wenming was still not very reassured; after all, Lu Han’s attitude toward him had been truly not very good.

"Of course, don’t you trust me?"

"It’s not that, if he agreed that’s great. I was actually thinking about going to beg Lin Jiaojiao and your elder brother. I’ve bought the gifts already and am on my way."

"Then also send them, if we can reconcile with them, that would be best."

"Hmm."
