After the breakup, the abstinent president got married and had three babies
Chapter 232: Agreed Location
When Xia Ruoan arrived at the agreed location, he originally thought that Zhao Han would come alone.
However, what she did not expect was that Zhao Han showed up here with his wife and daughter.
"Senior Brother Zhao!" Xia Ruoan couldn't help but show a hint of surprise when he saw the person in front of him.
Although time flies, the man standing in front of him has changed a lot compared to the past.
In the past, Zhao Han always exuded a faint aura of melancholy.
But what appeared before her at this moment was an increasingly calm and introverted image, especially those eyes, which were as deep as a deep pool, making it difficult to glimpse into his true thoughts deep in his heart.
Zhao Han raised his head slightly and nodded lightly at Xia Ruoan in response.
Then he said softly, "I'm sorry to trouble you to make this special trip."
Hearing this, Xia Ruo'an couldn't help but feel guilty, and quickly said, "Brother, please don't say that. Stop being so formal."
Then, she turned her gaze to the woman and little girl beside Zhao Han and asked curiously, "I guess these two are my sister-in-law and your daughter, right?"
The little girl looks very similar to Zhao Han, but her eyes are the same as her mother's, which is very cute.
"Yes, that's right." Zhao Han responded and introduced the two parties in turn, "This is my wife Shangguan Lan, and my daughter Zhao Changan."
Shangguan Lan smiled and nodded slightly to Xia Ruoan.
However, this smile seemed a little forced, as if hiding some unspeakable emotions.
What is even more unexpected is that there seems to be a subtle gap between Shangguan Lan and Zhao Han.
Faced with Zhao Han's care and concern and his proactive approach, Shangguan Lan actually showed obvious rejection.
On the surface, the relationship between the two people seems a little subtle, as if there is an insurmountable gap between them.
Zhao Han's earnest eyes and actions clearly revealed that he wanted to make up for something and tried to treat Shangguan Lan better.
However, Shangguan Lan always maintained a rejection attitude, which made people feel puzzled.
You know, according to rumors, Shangguan Lan has always been in love with Zhao Han, but what is going on in this situation?
Is it really as people speculate that love is too deep and eventually turns into hatred?
However, after all, they had just met, and Xia Ruoan felt that it was not appropriate for him to rashly ask the reason at this time.
At this moment, a childish voice broke the brief silence.
Zhao Changan, who was standing nearby in a pink princess dress, looked up at Xia Ruan and said in a sweet voice, "Auntie Xia, you are so beautiful, just like my mother!"
The little girl's face was a little pale and her body was quite thin, but her big eyes were particularly eye-catching.
Perhaps it is because of her thin body that her eyes appear a little bigger than those of ordinary children. In addition, she inherited the excellent genes of her parents, so she looks like an exquisite porcelain doll, which is really adorable.
Hearing Chang'an's praise, Xia Ruoan responded with a smile: "Thank you, Chang'an, you are also very beautiful!"
She looked carefully at the cute little girl in front of her, and a feeling of fondness rose in her heart.
Fortunately, her three sons are very well-behaved and sensible. Although they may be naughty occasionally, she feels relieved overall.
Therefore, Xia Ruoan was not too envious of other families for having such a caring daughter.
When Zhao Changan heard Xia Ruoan's praise, his cheeks instantly flushed and he looked a little shy and embarrassed.
She subconsciously moved her feet slightly behind her parents, as if she wanted to hide herself, but her eyes couldn't help but look at Xia Ruoan again, with a mixture of curiosity and joy in her eyes.
Shangguan Lan looked at his daughter who was so lively and lovely, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile from the heart.
This smile is as warm and gentle as the spring breeze, which makes people intoxicated by it.
She turned her head gently, looked at Xia Ruoan with eyes as clear as water, and said softly, "Changan, she likes you very much." Her voice was gentle and pleasant, like the sound of nature.
Xia Ruoan couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he heard this.
She originally thought that Shangguan Lan always looked cold, but she didn't expect to hear her talking to her in such a gentle voice at this moment.
So, she responded with a slight hesitation: "Really?"
There was a hint of disbelief in his tone.
After all, when Shangguan Lan doesn't speak, her cold temperament is really difficult to approach, as if she always keeps a certain distance from the world around her.
At this moment, Zhao Han, who was standing by, noticed Shangguan Lan's smile and was stunned involuntarily.
It had been a long time since he had seen Shangguan Lan smile so sincerely and unreservedly.
In my memory, Shangguan Lan was a woman who loved to laugh very much, and her brilliant smile was as dazzling as the sun.
However, since that incident, she seemed like a different person, and the cheerful smile she used to have was no longer on her face.
Especially when facing herself, she often looks indifferent and distant.
Perhaps if it weren't for Chang'an, she probably wouldn't want to stay with him at all... Thinking of this, Zhao Han couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness in his heart.
After regaining his composure, Zhao Han shifted his gaze from Shangguan Lan to Xia Ruoan, and asked with concern, "Is the taste still the same as before?"
This sentence is both a question and a temptation, as if trying to narrow the distance between each other through this question.
Xia Ruoan nodded slightly, indicating that he agreed with what the other party said.
Zhao Han walked towards the counter and elegantly ordered a cup of fragrant and delicious milk tea from the waiter.
At this moment, Shangguan Lan's face showed a bitter expression, and he sighed softly, "You and Qiao Xin must have a very good relationship! You know, he has always paid special attention to Qiao Xin's affairs, and even takes good care of the people around Qiao Xin."
Upon hearing this, Xia Ruoan showed a hint of embarrassment on her face, but she nodded politely and responded, "Senior Qiao has always been very caring towards me." Xia Ruoan never had any doubt about this.
Then, Xia Ruoan turned his gaze to Shangguan Lan and said seriously, "But now that you have become Senior Brother Zhao's wife, from what I know about him, he will definitely be even more considerate and caring towards you in the future."
"After all, Senior Brother Zhao is not the kind of person who is irresponsible."
However, Shangguan Lan shook his head disapprovingly, picked up a tissue and gently wiped the cake crumbs from the corner of his daughter's mouth. At the same time, he refuted firmly, "That's just out of responsibility and obligation."
Xia Ruoan clearly disagreed with Shangguan Lan's words. She frowned and explained anxiously, "Senior Brother absolutely loves you. This is clearly evident from his daily words and actions."
But after hearing this, Shangguan Lan couldn't help but chuckle at himself, his face full of disbelief, muttering to himself: "How could this be possible? Between me and Qiao Xin, no matter when or where, his first choice is always Qiao Xin..."
His words revealed endless loneliness and sadness.
Recalling what happened before she came back, the scene of Zhao Han meeting Qiao Xin kept flashing in her mind, like a sharp dagger, mercilessly piercing her heart.
She couldn't help but feel sad and felt that this marriage was simply an absurd farce.
If she had not been worried about the health of Grandpa Zhao and Grandma Zhao and afraid that they could not bear the blow, she would never have chosen to compromise with Zhao Han for the sake of the child and get a marriage certificate with him.
After all, with her own abilities, raising a child alone is no problem at all.
"I came here specially this time because I have something to ask of you."
"I heard that Mu Shen is your eldest brother. Could you ask him for us if he has any acquaintances with a well-known Chinese medicine doctor? Preferably one who specializes in treating children."
As he spoke, Shangguan Lan stared at Xia Ruoan in front of him with anticipation.
In fact, a long time ago, when Chang'an was still in his infancy, because he was too young and his body was extremely fragile, the treatment options available were very limited, and he could only maintain his current condition through careful care.
Now, as time goes by, Chang'an's physical condition has finally improved a little, so they can't wait to bring the child back here, hoping to find a better doctor to find a way to regulate Chang'an's body.
Although Mu Shen himself is engaged in the field of Western medicine, given his great reputation in the medical community, he must have accumulated quite extensive personal connections.
Therefore, Zhao Han held on to a glimmer of hope and begged Xia Ruoan to come forward to help find out.
As for Xia Ruoan, as early as when Zhao Han invited her out, she already knew in her heart that this meeting was most likely to discuss matters related to the child.
"My eldest brother is not only famous in surgery, but he is also quite good in traditional Chinese medicine!"
"You know, Master Zhang, a renowned figure in the field of Traditional Chinese Medicine, is his teacher. If you trust him, you can rest assured to let him treat your child."
"Of course, if you have another suitable candidate in mind but need someone to help introduce him, my brother will definitely do his best to help." Xia Ruoan looked at Shangguan Lan opposite him with a smile, his tone sincere and gentle.
Shangguan Lan couldn't help but show surprise upon hearing this. "What? Your eldest brother is actually Master Zhang's student? And as far as I know, although he has three disciples, one is far away abroad, and another is said to be traveling. As for who the last one is, even we have no idea."
