"By the way, I don't know if Hengyuan has sent you a message. He'll accompany you to try on wedding dresses tomorrow. The wedding date is set for December 1st. There's still over a month to go. Lanlan will soon marry the man of your dreams."
Listening to Mrs. Bai's words, Rong Lan took out her phone. As expected, she saw an unread message from Young Master Chu.
She didn't like electronic products such as phones and computers very much. She'd avoid looking at them if possible. Besides, she'd been working out intently just now and hadn't noticed her phone. So, she still hadn't replied to the message Chu Hengyuan sent her five hours ago.
She lowered her head and tapped the phone screen twice. "Mom, I'll go back to my room and call Young Master Chu."
Mrs. Bai waved her hand, happy to see Rong Lan and Chu Hengyuan getting along well. "Go ahead, go ahead."
However, the person who said she'd go back to her room to call Chu Hengyuan put the phone aside after entering the room. She went to the cloakroom, picked up some clothes, and then entered the bathroom to take a shower.
When she came out of the bathroom and sat down on the edge of the bed, she casually replied to Chu Hengyuan with a message. She had no intention of calling him at all. Instead, she opened the chat box labeled 'Detective', copied the address sent by the other party, and pasted it into the location software.
The memories left by the original owner for her were disjointed. She couldn't tell whether the blood relatives were good or bad based on those fragmented memories.
For her, the simplest way to judge whether a person was good or bad was to meet that person.
If possible, she wanted to invite the blood relatives of this body to the wedding. Of course, the premise was that those people wouldn't harm her or try to use her to achieve some bad goals. Otherwise, she wouldn't mind helping the ghost Bai Ronglan to punish relatives who had committed crimes.
After confirming how far the address the detective had found for her was from the Bai family, the next day, Rong Lan went to the high - end bridal shop with Chu Hengyuan to try on wedding dresses and mentioned this matter to him.
Her parents had told her that there could be some little secrets between partners, but it was better to mention things that could be told to the other person. This could prevent the possibility of quarrels due to laziness in sharing.
Chu Hengyuan didn't expect Rong Lan to be willing to share her thoughts with him. In his opinion, since they returned from Linjiang Teahouse, the little girl had been ignoring him. She really seemed like a heartless person who left right after having fun.
He thought that after she achieved her own goals, all the promises she made to him would be in vain. But now it seemed that it was different from what he had imagined?
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Hengyuan finally chose to tell her what he had investigated. "The address you have is wrong."
As soon as she said the address, he realized that the address she got was different from the one he had.
Rong Lan looked back at Chu Hengyuan. "The address is wrong?"
Chu Hengyuan nodded slightly. "If Miss Bai trusts me, then the address you got does have a problem. I admit that I've investigated Miss Bai, so I've also found out where Miss Bai's real relatives live."
Rong Lan didn't think there was anything wrong with Chu Hengyuan investigating her. If he didn't, she would find it strange.
Even if Chu Hengyuan was poor and an out - and - out playboy, he was still a child of the Chu family. It was perfectly normal for him to be vigilant.
Moreover, she had also investigated Chu Hengyuan. She couldn't be double - standard and ask Chu Hengyuan not to investigate her in return.
But the address she got was actually problematic? She had spent 20,000 yuan to buy this address.
It seemed that she had to change to another detective agency next time.
"I want to visit both addresses. It's not that I don't trust Young Master Chu. I just think that what if my address is correct?" Rong Lan said.
Chu Hengyuan smiled. "Sure. After we finish trying on the wedding dresses, I'll accompany you to visit those two addresses this afternoon."
"Great!"
Rong Lan tried on the wedding dress, and Chu Hengyuan also tried on a suit that matched the wedding dress. They let the staff of the high - end shop collect their height, weight and other data before they could leave the shop.
After leaving the shop, they had lunch and then set off to the address Rong Lan got first.
The address Rong Lan got was in the eastern suburbs of the capital. It would take two hours to drive there. But the address Chu Hengyuan had was even farther. The address he found was not in the capital but in City F, which was adjacent to the capital. It would take four hours to drive there.
The two of them decided to go to the nearer place first and then consider whether to go to the place that would take four hours to drive to.
After all, if it took four hours to drive there and back, they would get home very late. The elders of both families knew that they had gone out together to try on wedding dresses today. They didn't care about getting home late, but the elders might think too much.
In the car, as Rong Lan was sitting, she felt drowsy. She tried hard not to fall asleep and swiped her phone screen to watch interesting jokes and short videos.
However, she couldn't hold on for long. Soon, the phone slipped from her hand and landed on her thigh.
The car stopped in front of the white line at the traffic light. Chu Hengyuan turned his head and looked at the little girl sleeping soundly against the car window glass. He shook his head helplessly. He didn't expect that she trusted him so much that she could fall asleep in his car. He had no similar experience, and there was no blanket in the car. Otherwise, he could have covered her with it.
After thinking for a moment, he still turned up the heater in the car.
If the little girl caught a cold after going back, the elders of the Bai family would surely think that he couldn't take good care of her. This wouldn't do.
Although with the current heater temperature, he felt hot even in just a sweatshirt.
Rong Lan slept all the way. If Chu Hengyuan hadn't shaken her shoulder to wake her up when they arrived, she could have continued sleeping.
She opened her eyes sleepily, and her mind wasn't fully awake yet. "I had a dream..."
Hearing this, Chu Hengyuan handed her an unopened bottle of mineral water. "What dream?"
Rong Lan opened her mouth and was about to explain to Chu Hengyuan what the dream was as he asked. However, when her gaze fell on Chu Hengyuan's face, she instantly woke up and swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue. She silently unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle and took a sip.
Not getting a reply from the little girl, Chu Hengyuan, who had already opened the car door, looked back. He only saw the little girl holding the water bottle with both hands and sipping the water in small sips. Her listless look gave him the illusion that if she had ears, they would probably be drooping now.
She was really... so cute...
Chu Hengyuan smiled and reminded her, "Rong Lan, it's time for us to get out of the car."
Taking advantage of her drowsy state to change the way of addressing her, she probably wouldn't notice.
