Hu Ling raised her head and combed her messy hair. She smiled and said, "It's fine. They can't do anything to me. At most, they'll just take advantage of me verbally."
Seeing a cup beside her, she picked it up casually and said to Li Lan, "Come on, Li Lan. I'm sorry for making a fool of myself. Let's have a drink."
Li Lan said, "You said you wanted to be a driver. You don't have to be so polite. We're not strangers. I'll drink. You drink some green tea. "
Hu Ling said, "You're looking down on me. I'll drink first."
Then she was about to pour the tea into her mouth. She probably overestimated her strength. Halfway through, she covered her mouth with her hand and spat it into the trash can.
She took the tissue from Sang Chunling and wiped her mouth. She was about to drink again when Sang Chunling stopped her.
Sang Chunling said, "That's enough. Don't worry. They're not arrogant enough to take advantage of me."
She pointed at Li Lan and said, "Even if we two women can't do anything, there's still a handsome guy next to us to protect us. Don't be afraid. Even if the sky falls, he'll hold it up."
Li Lan finished his cup and smiled. "If someone comes looking for trouble, I'm willing to be their meat shield. I'm not afraid of being beaten black and blue."
At this time, there was another burst of noise coming from the side. A young man wearing a 28 style shirt was surrounded by a group of people like stars surrounding the moon as he entered the second floor. He was greeted by a burst of cheers from upstairs.
"Brother Fen, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Brother Fen, let's get drunk tonight …"
“....”
The man called Brother Fen chatted with them for a while and then looked at Sang Chunling.
Hu Ling whispered to Sang Chunling, "An Fen is here."
Sang Chunling said nonchalantly, "So what if he's here."
An Fen, surrounded by people, walked towards her. Her hand was still on Li Lan's shoulder.
The corner of his eye twitched and he suddenly looked at Li Lan. Li Lan was still drinking with Du Shixin next to him.
"You found a new lover?"
Sang Chunling said, "I don't even have an old lover. How can I find a new one?"
An Fen took a step closer and sat diagonally on the table. He rested his hands on the table and looked directly at Li Lan. He smiled and asked, "Little brother, where are you from? You look unfamiliar."
Li Lan swirled the cup in his hand. "Would you like a drink?"
An Fen looked at Sang Chunling again. "Why? Aren't you going to introduce us?"
Sang Chunling giggled. "An Fen, go back to hell. If you want to pretend to be a wolf, go somewhere else. I won't fall for it."
In terms of economic strength, her father was on par with the An Family, maybe even a little stronger.
But in terms of relationships, she was very clear that her father couldn't compare with the An family. After all, the An family played high-end finance, and their connections and background were much stronger than her family.
Therefore, she couldn't go too far, but she also didn't need to give him any face.
An Fen said, "Let's get this straight, Big Sis. I'm pursuing you. Do you hate me that much?"
"Hate you? There's no need for that … "Sang Chunling smiled and changed the topic." I'm just disgusting you. Sorry to trouble you, but you should know your place. Don't make things difficult for me. As for you, you should spend more effort on other girls. "
An Fen pointed at Li Lan. "If you don't like me, don't tell me you like him?"
Li Lan patted the sofa and said, "Handsome, if you want to drink, sit here. If you don't want to, please don't sit at the table. If you're not careful, your saliva will get into my cup."
He wasn't used to people looking down on him like that.
Moreover, the other party's sarcastic tone made him very uncomfortable. Everyone had a sense of superiority. Not showing it was a sign of self-cultivation and quality. He couldn't like people like An Fen.
An Fen ignored him and continued to ask Sang Chunling, "How is he better than me?"
Sang Chunling looked at Li Lan. She wanted to say that he was her boyfriend, but she was afraid that Li Lan would overthink and use him as a tool.
She had a limited understanding of Li Lan's temperament. Their relationship was only limited to jokes. It wasn't to the extent where they could make such a joke. She didn't want to court death because of herself. Their fragile relationship couldn't afford to be hurt!
Who knew that Li Lan would interrupt.
Li Lan said, "Handsome, how old are you? You're still saying such childish words. Admit defeat. Since she doesn't like you, you don't have to be so stubborn. It's meaningless to pester her. Save some face for yourself. "
An Fen was still smiling. Although he was angry, it wasn't enough to make him lose his mind. He wasn't stupid. A person who could be with Sang Chunling couldn't be a small character.
At this moment, he tried to maintain his composure.
"You want to drink?" He turned around and took a bottle from the table. "Bottoms up."
The bottle seemed to be pressed against his throat, leaving only the bottom of the bottle outside. When the bottle was exposed, the bottle was already empty. Then, with a clang, it was pressed against the marble table.
Li Lan smiled and finished his bottle as well. He shook the empty bottle at him.
An Fen reached out his hand. "An Fen."
"Li Lan." Out of politeness, Li Lan still reached out his hand. But after touching it, he let go.
"You're not in Pu Jiang, right?" An Fen didn't see any surprise or horror on Li Lan's face.
Li Lan said, "I just arrived the day before yesterday."
An Fen put one hand on his shoulder and leaned over. "Brother, it's like this. Have you heard of the saying 'a gentleman has the right to help others achieve their goals'?"
"There's also this saying. A gentleman doesn't take what others like," Li Lan said as he put his other hand on Sang Chunling's shoulder.
Sang Chunling's shoulder tightened. Suddenly, she couldn't speak.
She didn't think that Li Lan would put his hand on her shoulder so openly.
An Fen's face fell just like that.
"Brother, one more friend means one more path. Haven't you heard of that?"
Li Lan looked straight into his eyes and smiled. "I make friends based on my mood. I don't care if they give me a path or not. I walk my own path."
If he wanted to walk a path, no one could stop him.
If he didn't want to walk a path, even his father couldn't stop him.
"You're very confident?" An Fen put one hand on the empty bottle.
Li Lan said, "It's better than some people who are arrogant."
"How can you speak to Brother Fen like that!" A young man wearing glasses behind An Fen pointed at Li Lan and questioned him.
Sang Chunling pouted. "Is there a place for you to speak here?"
An Fen gestured to the people behind him to stop talking.
Jiang Xingyuan, Du Shixin, and the others didn't say anything because they had their reservations. They were regulars here and it was impossible for them not to know who An Fen was!
They were willing to speak up for Li Lan out of righteousness, but they had to consider the impact on their families!
They were indeed in a difficult position.
Wang Ou bit the bullet and raised her glass. "Brother Fen, it's fate that we met. Let's have a drink together."
What embarrassed her was that An Fen turned a deaf ear and didn't even bat an eyelid.
Li Lan raised his glass and said to her, "Come, let's have a drink. Thank you for taking care of us."
