"Miss, have you watched too many TV dramas? "Do I look like someone who can cast spells?" Tao Ran saw that Ye Ning Tian had instantly returned to normal and began to ask random questions. He was half relieved and half didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Then tell me, what exactly happened?" Ye Ning Tian refused to let her go. It was obvious that she had a strong self-healing ability.

"Because I've been practicing martial arts since I was young. I think my strength is quite great." Tao Ran played it down.

"You've practiced martial arts since you were young, could it be that you're training in Shaolin Temple?" Ye Ning Tian's interest was piqued.

"Miss, could it be that I am a monk? But, uh … I liked it more when I was little. " Tao Ran replied.

"No wonder you look so tough. So that's how it is." Ye Ningtian looked at Tao Ran with eyes filled with adoration, "Thank you for helping me out."

"You're not as strong as I thought." Tao Ran smiled and turned his face away as he continued to walk along the coastline.

"Hey, what do you mean!" Ye Ning Tian's face was filled with dissatisfaction as she lightly patted Tao Ran's shoulder. She then walked together with Tao Ran.

The sea breeze was still as gentle as before, blowing Ye Ning Tian's long hair and making it dance along with her face like a black fairy.

Surprisingly, Tao Ran was stunned. This girl with bright eyes, white teeth, and long hair that fluttered in the wind, whom he had accompanied for so many years, actually didn't notice in the slightest …

After a while, Tao Ran's heart calmed down. Tao Tian had been standing in his heart for so many years. How could any woman ever be able to match up to him?

"Brother Ran, what are you daydreaming about?" Seeing Tao Ran remain silent for a long time, Ye Ningtian couldn't help but ask.

"Nothing, I just feel that women have a lot of sides." Tao Ran quietly said. Yes, it was Ye Ning Tian. She was thinking about the shocking power that was unknowingly exploding from Tao Tian's petite body.

"What, Brother Ran, have you never known a woman before?" Ye Ning Tian was shocked.

Tao Ran was speechless.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's move forward." Seeing Tao Ran's awkwardness, Ye Ningtian also understood the answer. He didn't probe any further and just continued walking forward with a smile on his face.

The two of them walked along the coastline. From afar, they looked like a couple.

Unknowingly, the two of them had arrived at the end of the night. The annoyance in Ye Ningtian's heart had also dissipated quite a bit during their conversation with Tao Ran.

"Hungry, let's go home," said Ye Ning Tian as her arm unconsciously climbed onto Tao Ran's.

In the past, when Tao Ran was young master, there were many women who quietly threw themselves at him and placed their hands on his arms. Tao Ran always felt a sense of boredom, but today, Ye Ning Tian's actions caused Tao Ran to feel slightly uncomfortable.

Tao Ran blankly stared at Ye Ning Tian's entwined arm. A fragrance different from Tao Tian's entered his nose, causing Tao Ran to be stunned for a moment. He could only blankly stare at Ye Ning Tian's slender jade-like hand.

"Oh, let's go." Ye Ning Tian smiled a little embarrassedly. She realized that she couldn't help it and slowly let go of her arm.

The two of them walked out of the beach one after the other and got into the car.

"Brother Ran, you've never liked other women?" Ye Ning Tian couldn't help but ask.

"Eldest Miss, did you come out to comfort me today? Why are you asking about my matters again?" Tao Ran returned to his usual cool expression.

"Me …" Ye Ningtian smiled. "I'm a heartless person. I didn't care about it for a long time."

"I knew you were heartless." Tao Ran also smiled.

Not long after, the car arrived at Ye Ning Tian's house. He sent Ye Ning Tian into the house with his eyes, and slowly drove away from the Ye family home.

As he drove, he opened the window.

If it was the past, the current scene was simply nothing to him. However, today, he broke out in a cold sweat. After all, it had been a long time since he had experienced this.

It was just that the current Ye Ningtian, who had a sorrowful look on her face, had a strong desire to protect her.

Yes, this reminded him of the Tao Tian from the past. His face was filled with despair, and his hands tightly gripped his and Lei Zichen's lives.

It turned out that no matter how long it took, some memories had already become a part of his body, making it difficult to part with them.

Tao Ran let the wind blow against him and kept his arm on top of the car. He wanted to maintain a more comfortable position.

Thinking of everything that happened tonight, he couldn't help but have a smile on his face. This was the first time, when he thought of other women, waves of a smile appeared on his face …

"Yao Yao, I'm back." As soon as he stepped into the house, Tao Ran shouted loudly.

"Uncle, you're back." Before Tao Tian appeared, An An took the lead and rushed out.

"An An's so obedient. Where's Mommy?" Tao Ran bent down to pick up An An An and asked.

"Mommy's in a daze." An An An pointed to Tao Tian who was sitting blankly on the sofa.

"Yao Yao, what are you thinking about?" Tao Ran asked with a puzzled expression.

"Oh, right. Didn't you say that you had something to tell me? What is it?"

"Big brother, Lei Zichen came to our house today …" Tao Tian whispered.

"Could it be that the two of you …" Tao Ran furrowed his brows. Could it be that the old relationship between the two of them had been rekindled?

"Not this. Because I had arranged to eat at Auntie Zhong's house, An An kept pestering Lei Zichen. When I was in a hurry, I forgot about it. Auntie Zhong even had to come to my house to knock on the door, but I coincidentally bumped into Lei Zichen." Tao Tianyi narrated the result of this matter from the beginning to the end.

"So what?" Tao Ran was puzzled.

"The problem is, you know, Auntie Zhong has always been an unsociable person. Today, she actually took the initiative to invite Lei Zichen for a meal and asked him a lot of questions about Uncle Lei." Tao Tian carefully recalled the recent events.

"In short, I feel that Auntie Zhong's identity is suspicious. She seems to have given Lei Zichen a special feeling, and is especially interested in Uncle Lei." Tao Tian voiced out the doubts in his heart.

"What do you mean?" At this point, Tao Ran had already guessed what Tao Tian was wondering.

"Hmm, do you remember the secret in grandpa's study that I told you before?" Tao Tian said with a serious face.

"I think this Auntie Zhong is the one that Grandpa is looking for." Tao Tian's tone was full of certainty.

"Really?" Tao Ran was somewhat puzzled. After all, he hadn't seen what happened just now. Just based on Tao Tian's deductions, it was a matter of great importance.

"I'm not too sure either. If it's true, then it's too laughable. The people that Grandpa has been trying to find are all living together. Hahaha." Tao Tian smiled contemptuously.

"This matter is extremely important, we can't make such a hasty decision." Tao Ran reminded.

"Don't worry, I'll find an opportunity to probe her. After all, not only are our lives on the line, there's also An'an's …" As Tao Tian spoke, he affectionately forgot to look at An An who was focused on playing.

Although Tao Tian still looked like a young girl, but her role as a mother was also very competent.

"Mm, you have to be careful." Tao Ran patted Tao Tian's shoulder.

"Big brother, where did you go tonight?" Tao Yao curiously asked when he thought of this.

"It's nothing. Something happened to Eldest Miss. I'll go help her out." Tao Ran played it lightly. He always kept Tao Tian in his heart, so he didn't want to talk about any other woman in front of Tao Tian.

"You went to be the hero and saved the beauty, brother." Tao Tian excitedly asked.

"Damned girl, what are you saying?" Tao Ran turned his head away in embarrassment, "I can't be bothered with you. I'm going to wash my hands. Go and get me something to eat." As Tao Ran spoke, he walked into the bathroom. He didn't want to continue discussing this issue with Tao Tian.

"Understood, Young Master." With a laugh, Tao Tian walked into the kitchen.

After leaving Tao Tian's house, Lei Zichen slowly started up the car. He drove very slowly, wanting to recall everything that just happened.

He had lost his mother ever since he was a child, and everything that happened today made him feel an indescribable warmth, as if a family had gathered around a stove to talk.

However, this so called family didn't have anything to do with him at all. It was just that he wasn't very close to his child, but he was especially fond of this little demon spirit for some reason.

And that Auntie Zhong. Although this was her first time meeting him, her tone of voice was full of love, and she even seemed to be on good terms with his father.

And the way she looked at him always made him feel as if he had known her for years.

Finally, it was Tao Tian. She inadvertently pulled on his hand. Her movements were naturally practiced. The way she looked at him, the formality they shared, she was still able to easily disrupt his thoughts.

If it was true, it would be great if they were a family.

His family day in kindergarten was always incomplete, his mother was missing, and his father refused to marry again. One could only imagine how disappointed he was.

So when Anthea threw herself into his arms today, hoping that he would be able to pretend to be his father and appear on Family Day, he only hesitated for a moment before agreeing. Such a cute baby, he didn't want his childhood to be unpleasant, but most importantly, he could also be his own child.

But, why didn't Tao Tian reveal the truth? Or was his thinking wrong …

No matter what, he was willing to believe that everything was progressing in a good direction.

"Ring, ring, ring …" Lei Zichen's phone rang.

"Hello," Lei Zichen said as he pressed his headphones.

"Hello, Lei Dong. It's me. Where did you go? "When will you be back? When I went to your room to look for you, you weren't there. I think it was a bit late …" Qi Xue'er's voice was filled with fear.

"I'm going back. I've already eaten." Lei Zichen's words were extremely brief.

"Oh, alright then. Be careful of your safety." Afraid that Lei Zichen would get impatient, Qi Xue immediately hung up the phone.

Lei Zichen frowned as he looked at the phone call. A single phone call brought him back to reality. This time was different from the past. They were no longer the same as before. Could it be possible?

Lei Zichen didn't know what the result was. He just thought that he still wanted to know every single move of Tao Tian's. He still desired to see her …

That Irene, at that time when Tao Tian abandoned him, was always by his side. All these years, she endured his perverted nature, and from time to time, he would have a romantic affair.
