Give Me Your Hands and Marry Me - Chapter 304 - Ouyang Jin as a Pursuer
Chapter 304 Ouyang Jin as a Pursuer
Lan Wenxuan received a phone call from Lan Hua last night. On the phone, Lan Hua stressed that he should not be too hard on A Miao, especially in front of outsiders and Elder Master.
“Don’t worry. You know that I don’t like any of my relatives, and now, my attitude toward A Miao is just the same as it is to any other relative. If I deliberately get close to her, it will cause Elder Master to become suspicious.”
The low-key Maybach was running on the road silently.
“The first thing I want to visit in Jingcheng City is, of course, the Forbidden City.” Lan Wenxuan had changed positions with Ouyang Jin. He was responsible for driving. He said, “Are there any other places you want to go?”
The question was for Ouyang Jin as well since Lan Wenxuan didn’t believe that Ouyang Jin’s roaming around was to visit the scenic spots.
“Okay.” Ouyang Jin answered indifferently, “I have never been to it anyway.”
Lan Wenxuan looked at A Miao from the rearview mirror and asked, “Is there any place you want to go?”

“Just find a subway station and drop me off,” A Mi said, exactly the same as what they had discussed yesterday.
“Pfft!” Lan Wenxuan pulled up the corners of his mouth and said, “If we leave you, how should we explain it to Grandpa?”
A Miao wanted to say something but was interrupted by him.
“Don’t say that you won’t tell Grandpa. What do kind of person do you think Elder Master is? Someone who you can fool casually?”
A Miao laughed and said, “Then let’s go to the Forbidden City!”
Lan Wenxuan squinted at her and tore his gaze away from her. Everyone in the car became quiet again and there was a vague sense of oppression.
“Miss Lan, I heard that you just returned to the Lan family, didn’t you?” after a while, Ouyang Jin asked and broke the silence.
A Miao looked at the red hair that came out of the front seat and answered, “Yes, I was with my mother before.”
“Keke!” Ouyang Jin glanced at Lan Wenxuan and said, “I probably know what had happened.”
Lan Wenxuan hit the steering wheel indifferently and said, “Is this kind of thing still rare in those rich and powerful families?”
“I mean Miss Lan is just like me!” Ouyang Jin answered breezily.
“No kidding.” Lan Wenxuan glanced at him and said, “How can she be compared with you?”
Ouyang Jin shrugged his shoulders and did not answer.
The car was quiet again and until they reached their destination, no one talked anymore. After parking the car, Lan Wenxuan went to buy the tickets. When they were about to go in, he received a call from the company.
“Now?
“Okay, I know.”
He hung up the phone and threw his hands up and said, “It seems that today I can’t do my best as the host.”
“Is something up?” Ouyang Jin took the tickets and said absent-mindedly, “Go do your work then. Having a beauty to accompany me is enough.”
Lan Wenxuan looked at A Miao and saw her faint expression.
“Forget it, then I’ll have to trouble you to take her back later.” Lan Wenxuan lowered his voice and said, “And, back to my house, not to a hotel!”
Ouyang Jin patted his shoulder and said, “What are you saying! That is your cousin.”
“Just reminding you,” Lan Wenxuan said. He was really afraid that Ouyang Jin would fall for her.
A Miao understood his words and she felt quite embarrassed…
When Lan Wenxuan left, Ouyang Jin narrowed his eyes at A Miao and said, “Let’s go in!”
“Why are you here?” One inside the scenic area, mixed among the other tourists, A Miao then smiled and asked, “Hey… you don’t know that when I saw you, I almost spilled the beans!”
“Shen isn’t at ease, so none of us are.” Ouyang Jin’s tone showed that they were quite familiar but there was no expression on his face.
Anyone who looked at them would think that these two people were not very familiar with each other.
“Is he all right? What about Yaya?” A Miao asked hurriedly.
Ouyang Jin sighed and said, “Do you think he could be all right? Since you came to Jingcheng City, Shen has hardly rested, smoking all night long. Yaya is okay now. In the beginning, she kept looking for you during the day and crying at night.”
“Now… she has forgotten me.” A Miao said with bitterness slipping over her lips, “It is better to forget me. It can save her from crying.”
“You can rest assured. She is a kid and she’s just getting used to the fact that you are not with her.” Ouyang Jin said, trying to comfort her, “As for forgetting you, that is impossible. I heard that Shen is always showing Yaya photos of you.”
The two walked to a side chamber, where there were fewer tourists than in other places. Ouyang Jin handed her a mobile phone and said, “Call him now. Shen must be anxiously waiting for you!”
“Oh, yes!” A Miao said and took the phone, clicking on it and starting a video chat.
After just one ring, she saw the screen light up.
“Shen Xinglan!” she couldn’t help shouting.
The man on the screen looked no different from the past, but his eyes, which were even prettier than those of women, were particularly bright today.
“A Miao…” He sighed.
A Miao’s tears came down when she heard him call her name.
“Have you been upset? Does anyone bully you?” Shen Xinglan asked anxiously, with his eyes fixed on the screen, for fear of missing even a second.
“I’m so upset…” A Miao said, crying, “All of them are bullying me!”
Ouyang Jin, who was sitting next to her, rolled his eyes.
“Write down their names! We will pay them back in the future!” Shen Xinglan squinted and stroked the face of A Miao on his screen. He said, “Dear, don’t cry. If you keep crying, I will come and find you.”
A Miao sniffed and said, “Okay, I won’t cry. Where is Yaya?”
“She’s asleep. I am afraid if she was awake, she would make trouble when seeing you,” Shen Xinglan said. The image of Shen Xinglan swayed, and then A Miao saw a small face like a meat bun.
“Yaya…” she said, covering her mouth with her hands with tears flowing down out of control.
Through the lens, she could see Yaya making a small fist and sleeping there. There was a small bubble in the corner of Yaya’s mouth, trembling slightly with her breath.
“Yaya…” A Miao said. She was about to lose her voice and she kept shaking her head.
The face of Shen Xinglan also appeared in the video. He said, “Don’t cry. Since Ouyang is with you, then there will be many opportunities for video chats in the future.”
“What if the Lan family misunderstands me, thinking that I am in pursuit of A Miao?” Ouyang Jin inserted a sentence and squeezed half of his head in.
A Miao sniffled and said, “No way…”
“There is nothing wrong with it.” Shen Xinglan said, “If he pretends to pursue you, then he can follow you with justifiable reasons.”
Ouyang Jin thought for a moment and said, “You’re right! Then we will follow this script!”
“Don’t let Yaya forget me…” A Miao continued sniffling and said, “What if she doesn’t call me Mom in the future?”
Shen Xinglan touched her face shown on the screen and said, “Silly girl, I promise she won’t forget you!”
“Then you shall not forget me as well.” A Miao didn’t know what she was saying. She just spoke out what came to her mind. She said, “Don’t talk to other women or even look at them.”
“OK, I won’t talk to or look at them!” Shen Xinglan said on the other side of the video call, with tears filling his eyes, “I once saw a sentence on the Internet.”
“What… what…” A Miao asked. She kept crying and sniffling.
Shen Xinglan curved his lips and said, “When I didn’t know you, there was only one kind of person for me, just someone else. After I met you, they were divided into two groups of people, that is, you and the others.
“It doesn’t matter to me who they are.”
A Miao broke into laughter with a bubble on her nose.
“Haha!” She embarrassedly took a tissue from Ouyang Jin’s hand and wiped her face. She said, “It seems that when I am not there, you have spent a lot of time studying how to attract girls.”
Shen Xinglan had tried his best with his skills opened to the maximum. He threw out another line. “I only want to attract you!”
Ouyang Jin, sitting next to A Miao, felt that he was about to become blind and deaf, but he did not dare to go too far from her. In this way, A Miao had a three-hour video chat with Shen Xinglan until Lan Wenxuan called.
“Okay, let’s finish the chat today.” Ouyang Jin took the phone and saw that both of them staring at him. Ouyang said helplessly, “He will hang up if you don’t answer the phone.”
Shen Xinglan stared at A Miao and said, “I will ask Ouyang to arrange another video chat for us later. Take care of yourself.”
“Ok!” A Miao said. It was not easy for her to stop crying and now her tears continued to fall down again. She saw that Ouyang Jin had answered the call, so she gestured at him and went to the restroom next to him.
“Lan Wenxuan has finished his business. He asked us to have lunch together,” Ouyang Jin said. A Miao had cleaned her face and come out. He looked at his watch and said, “Let’s go. You can adjust your mood on the road.”
The first meal was naturally in a restaurant for roast duck, which had a hundred-year history. In a private VIP room on the third floor, Lan Wenxuan was sitting alone and drinking tea.
“You two are really slow.”
As soon as Ouyang Jin and A Miao arrived, Lan Wenxuan asked the waiters to serve them.
“Is there anything special here?” Ouyang Jin sat down and looked at the decoration of the private room. “I have tried the roast duck in Country Mi at the same chain restaurant.”
Lan Wenxuan saw A Miao pour tea for herself and he was happy to leave her alone. So he kept talking with Ouyang Jin. He said, “You don’t know about this. The ducks that could be sent to the third floor are different. There are only 50 ducks per day.”
“Really?” Ouyang Jin was very concerned about A Miao, pushing the fruit to her and said, “Then I will get a good taste of it.”
Lan Wenxuan narrowed his eyes and said, “Well, did you staying in the Forbidden City all morning? Didn’t you go to other nearby attractions?”
“We didn’t have time! We followed the tour guide, listening to him. When you called, we hadn’t finished the tour.” Ouyang Jin flipped his red hair and said, “I didn’t listen to it at all, but A Miao had been listening very carefully!”
“It seems that you get along well.” Lan Wenxuan said and glanced at A Miao, “Do you have any plans in the afternoon? I am free in the afternoon, where do you want to go?”
Ouyang Jin yawned and said, “I will go back to the hotel for a bath and massage in the afternoon.”
“Then no more visiting today?” Lan Wenxuan smiled and said, “Well, we can go out for a drink at night.”
Ouyang Jin did not refuse, but he still looked at A Miao and said, “You’d better go back and take a rest in the afternoon. We’ve walked for a long time this morning. We can continue to visit tomorrow.”
Lan Wenxuan looked at the two people but said nothing. At this moment, the waiter came in to serve them and then everyone started rolling roast duck with pancakes. A Miao found that Lan Wenxuan glanced at her from time to time. She really couldn’t stand such embarrassment when the frequency of his glances increased.
“I am going to the bathroom,” she said, finding an excuse to leave.
But she didn’t expect that the restroom would not be peaceful.
“Didn’t you say that the role would be mine?”
As soon as she opened the door, she saw a young daughter, who was shouting angrily.
“How could I know that the other side also had someone who will bring funds to the group,” a woman answered, who was in her 30s and very well dressed.
“Now, what shall we do? The director said that we will have an audition. If she performs better than me, will I lose the opportunity to be the leading actress?”
“Don’t worry. Later on, go out and have a few drinks with the director nicely. We will discuss the situation when the result comes out.”
A Miao was about to retreat, but she accidentally knocked down a flower pot. Then it was embarrassing for her no matter if she left or stayed.
“Who allowed you to overhear us?!” the young girl shouted.
The woman next to her pulled her out. Consequently, in a hurry, the girl stepped on the flower pot that A Miao had just knocked down. With her 10-inch high heels, she sprained her ankle in no time.
