Chapter 446: Chapter 448: Questioning Zhang Lan’s Thick-Skinned Nature
The Zhang Family, compared to the Dai Family, is certainly better by not just a little bit.
Otherwise, her grandfather wouldn’t have locked her in a room, ignoring her even if she threatened to live or die.
Dai Ke’er knows that if she weren’t her grandfather’s only granddaughter, he definitely wouldn’t let her marry Zhang Haiyang.
Yet, the Dai Family had only her as a granddaughter, and she’s still an illegitimate daughter.
But for the sake of an arranged marriage with the Zhang Family, she, as the illegitimate daughter, was brought back to the Dai Family’s old house.
Thinking about this, Dai Ke’er’s feelings are undeniably complicated.
"Zhang Lan, what do you want from me?"
Hearing the impatience in Dai Ke’er’s tone, Zhang Lan frowned slightly.
She glanced at Wang Hua and Gu Tiantian in the hospital room, smirked slightly, and spoke casually.
"What business could there be? Of course, I’m asking if you know where my brother went. You know, you’re now my brother’s fiancée and my future sister-in-law. If I don’t ask you where my brother’s gone, who else would I ask?"
Dai Ke’er thoroughly enjoyed the way Zhang Lan spoke, as if Zhang Haiyang being out of touch was because he was infatuated with her, and was always with her.
Just thinking of this, Dai Ke’er’s vanity was abruptly checked, and she quickly frowned.
"Zhang Lan, how would I know where your brother went?"
"I was just released by my grandfather; I had been locked in a room and not allowed to go anywhere. I didn’t even have access to my phone!"
To ensure Gu Tiantian and Wang Hua had nothing to say, Zhang Lan’s phone was on speaker.
Listening to Dai Ke’er, Gu Tiantian and Wang Hua’s expressions remained calm.
Clearly, it was expected.
When Gu Tiantian saw the obviously distressed Zhang Haiyang in the café, she knew Zhang Haiyang didn’t care for Dai Ke’er at all.
Who acts like that when they’re about to marry someone they like?
Shouldn’t he be overjoyed?
Gu Tiantian glanced at Wang Hua, and before Zhang Lan could hang up, she turned to leave.
Seeing this, Zhang Lan told Dai Ke’er there was a matter, quickly hanging up before Dai Ke’er could respond.
She then looked at Gu Tiantian, speaking rather loudly.
"Tiantian, where are you heading? I’ll go with you."
Gu Tiantian didn’t expect Zhang Lan’s skin to be so thick.
"I’m in a hurry to find Brother Zhang; does Mr. Zhang want to tag along?"
She couldn’t believe it, Zhang Lan had just been claiming she wasn’t on good terms with her brother, and now she’s willing to tag along.
But clearly, she underestimated the allure of wealthy and influential handsome men for Zhang Lan.
Zhang Lan’s smile stiffened slightly but she quickly nodded.
"Of course, of course, how could I not? Although my relationship with him isn’t great, we’re still family."
Gu Tiantian gave Zhang Lan a sardonic smile but didn’t agree or refuse.
It was Wang Hua who thought it might be better with Zhang Lan tagging along; after all, they are siblings.
"Miss Zhang, how about you first call Brother Zhang’s parents, oh... that is, your parents, to ask if Brother Zhang has gone home?"
Wang Hua had never been to the Zhang Family’s old house, as Zhang Haiyang rarely returned there.
During major holidays, Zhang Haiyang, quite considerately, would grant him leave, so Wang Hua genuinely didn’t know where the Zhang Family’s old house was.
Since the relationship between Zhang Haiyang and his parents was poor, as his assistant, Wang Hua didn’t have their contact information.
At this moment, having Zhang Lan around seemed quite handy.
