Chapter 378: You and I Are Destined
Xiao Yifei, after hearing Tan Lan’s words, was also stunned; he stared at Tan Lan, his mind somewhat sluggish to react.
The scene became very quiet for a moment.
Eventually, it was Tan Zhenting who first snapped out of it, and with a loud laugh, he said to Xiao Yifei, "Mr. Xiao, you really are talented, not only in personal cultivation and abilities but also in making others react to you in such a way!"
Although Tan Lan was very capable, her unrestrained and wild personality often led her to say bizarre things and do strange actions. Thus, after his initial surprise, Tan Zhenting quickly understood.
Following that, Tan Yunjing also reacted, covering her mouth and giggling, "Auntie, you really dare to say anything!"
Tan Lan did not explain much; after saying that phrase, she too started laughing as if nothing had happened. At that moment, the porridge in the dining hall was also served, and everyone began to eat the small dishes with their porridge.
Xiao Yifei also bowed his head to drink the porridge. Seeing that neither Tan Zhenting nor Tan Yunjing took Tan Lan’s words seriously, Xiao Yifei also felt that Tan Lan had just spoken casually. He didn’t think much of it, but while drinking the porridge, Xiao Yifei could always feel Tan Lan glancing at him from time to time.
Xiao Yifei gently shook his head, dismissing the sensation as an illusion.
"Mr. Xiao, you will sleep in this room today. There are servants at the door—just call them if you need anything. Plus, I’m in the next room, and Yunjing is on the second floor. If something comes up, just shout and we will hear you. You can shower in the room too."
Finally, after a pleasant dinner and conversation, Tan Zhenting led Xiao Yifei to the room that had been prepared for him, also in the building. Indeed, calling it a building doesn’t capture the fact that the entire Tan family resides in this mansion.
