Bringing Along a Ball and Hiding from Foreign Devils
Chapter 23
Leonid proposed to have dinner at a western restaurant near the company. Ren Zhouyuan had something on his mind and didn't have much idea about where to go. He followed Leonid silently. Leonid didn't know whether to laugh or cry at his absent-minded expression.
Leonid guessed that Ren Zhouyuan wanted to tell him the truth, so he booked a private room. After ordering, the main dishes were served, and the door was closed, leaving only the melodious piano sound in the quiet room. However, looking at the table full of food, neither of them had the intention to eat.
Leonid gave him enough time to think, but obviously, the person who said that he wanted to talk didn't intend to take the initiative to talk. He sighed and said, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Ren Zhouyuan was like a bird startled by the twang of a bow. He trembled when Leonid opened his mouth. This time, Leonid laughed.
He poured two glasses of red wine for the two of them, pushed one of them in front of Ren Zhouyuan, and said the same thing, "Don't be so nervous. I won't eat you."
Hearing this, Ren Zhouyuan looked up at him, and then looked at the red wine in front of him. He pondered for a moment, picked it up, and drank it up.
The alcohol flowed down his esophagus. He was not a good drinker, so he slowly felt a little dizzy, which gave him a little courage.
Ren Zhouyuan shook his head and organized his words. Unexpectedly, the moment he was about to speak, he flinched. He pursed his lips and said, "Where did Luo En go?"
Leonid looked at him and frowned slightly. His serious expression was like that of an Anan talking to robots, but the question he asked was so funny.
He clenched his fist in front of his mouth and coughed to hide his smile. He answered truthfully, "He went to Russia."
"Oh." His mood didn't improve after he got the answer, and the expression on his face was still gloomy.
Leonid felt that if this went on, he wouldn't be able to get to the point even when the restaurant was closed. Thinking that Ren Zhouyuan could keep things to himself for so many years, he decided to take the initiative.
He started with work and asked Ren Zhouyuan about his recent work. They talked while eating, and he also told him some work arrangements. Under Leonid's intentional guidance, the atmosphere in the room slowly became gentle.
While Ren Zhouyuan was still focused on his work, Leonid suddenly asked casually, "What about your son if you come out for dinner with me tonight?"
Ren Zhouyuan was stunned for a moment, and then his heart began to race.
He put down his knife and fork, wiped his mouth, and sat up straight. He did not answer Leonid's question, but asked him in a way that only the two of them could understand, "You know everything?"
Leonid raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect him to be so calm this time.
He also stopped moving and used the same ambiguous words to ask him back, "To what extent should I know?"
Ren Zhouyuan frowned. After a long silence, he said, "I won't give you Anan."
Leonid was really angry this time. Before he knew about the existence of Anan, his target was Ren Zhouyuan. After he knew about Anan, his target became this father and son. What kind of person did this little guy in front of him think he was?
But looking at his serious face, Leonid was tempted to tease him.
He crossed his arms and leaned back. "Anan is my son, right?"
Leonid's tone was full of ridicule, and his eyes were full of mockery when he looked at Ren Zhouyuan. However, Ren Zhouyuan was now thinking that this person was here to snatch his son away from him, so he took Leonid's look as if he was determined to win. He frowned and looked at him, his eyes full of hostility. "Anan is mine!"
It was Leonid's first time seeing Ren Zhouyuan's spiky appearance. It was rare to see a gentle and elegant person like Ren Zhouyuan in this state. However, he did not forget his purpose for coming here tonight, so he adjusted his attitude and said, "You accepted my invitation today because you want to solve An 'an's problem, right?
Anan is my son, and I believe you know that. Although I don't know why my son is with you, you raised Anan for so many years, and Anan also treats you as his biological father. I have no reason to separate you and your father. "
He paused for a moment, and under Ren Zhouyuan's surprised gaze, he said, "So I hope to bring you both here. From now on, the three of us will be one family."
After hearing his words, Ren Zhouyuan was so shocked that he couldn't control himself.
Leonid didn't seem to know that he was another biological father of Anan.
He quickly sorted out the current situation. Leonid probably recognized him a long time ago. Maybe he knew about the existence of Anan when the Anan participated in the competition last time, and he also recognized him. No, maybe he knew about Anan even earlier, when Anan came to Wei Qi for the first time, and he had been silently investigating him.
He was too careless at that time. He had always thought that he was lucky, but he didn't expect that the enemy was already waiting for an opportunity to take action.
He remembered that Anan was injured during the competition. Maybe at that time, Leonid confirmed the fact that Anan was his son.
However, he didn't tell anyone that Anan was his biological father, not even Fan Wenfeng, who was the closest to him. When he gave birth to Anan, he found a doctor friend who grew up with him in the orphanage. There was no file, so Leonid couldn't find out where to start. Therefore, he only knew that Anan was his son, but he didn't know that Anan was his biological father.
Leonid saw that Ren Zhouyuan frowned and pursed his lips, but he didn't say anything about his proposal. He was a little hesitant.
Seeing Ren Zhouyuan shake his head, Leonid was a little anxious and said, "I can provide you with the best life. Anan is about to go to primary school, right?
He is very talented in science and technology. You don't want to bury his talent, do you? "
"And you, you have been running around all these years, taking care of Anan by yourself. You have to make a living and take care of Anan at the same time. Don't you feel tired?
I know you have friends who can help you, but how long can they help? Anan is so young, and he will have a long hard life in the future.
I don't say that I can shelter you from the wind and rain, but three people in a family. If something happens, we can support each other. Isn't that better? "
Ren Zhouyuan looked at him seriously and listened to what he said. He seemed to see the beautiful blueprint that Leonid described in his words. Those words poked at his heart again and again, making him waver a little.
He remembered what Leonid said that day in the Maker Base. He didn't expect that what he thought at that time would come true today.
However, his reason told him that the man in front of him only took him and his father under his wing out of responsibility. He had a person he liked. For that person, he canceled his engagement with his fiancée. However, because of him and Anan, he had to make the decision to betray the person he liked.
Ren Zhouyuan thought for a long time and finally shook his head.
Leonid's face changed dramatically. He was about to ask, but Ren Zhouyuan said, "Anan is my son. I can take care of him." He looked up at Leonid and said, "… You don't have to worry about him."
Leonid was so angry that his head hurt, and his attitude became a little tougher. "Anan is also my son. To be precise, I am Anan's father."
Ren Zhouyuan met his angry eyes and said harshly, "Anan is my son. If you don't believe me, you can check it out!"
Leonid was so angry that he didn't think about the meaning behind Ren Zhouyuan's words. He just thought that Ren Zhouyuan said it out of anger.
He thought about it again and again. He didn't know what went wrong, but the two were in a deadlock. In the end, Leonid suddenly thought of something. He stared at Ren Zhouyuan and asked, "Is it your friend?"
"What?" Ren Zhouyuan was stunned.
"Is it your friend?" Leonid asked again, "Do you like him?"
Ren Zhouyuan was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a while, he finally understood who Leonid was talking about.
He opened his mouth slightly, surprised that Fan Wenfeng would suddenly appear in their conversation. He followed Fan Wenfeng's train of thought and quickly calmed down.
Ren Zhouyuan seemed to have made an important decision. He nodded seriously and said, "Yes, I like him." When he said this, he felt a little bitter in his heart, but at this time, he didn't have time to explore his feelings. He said, "So you and me, there is no 'we'."
Leonid stared at him for a long time. In the end, he sneered, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it in one gulp.
The food on the table had already become cold, just like their relationship, cold and hard. Even if someone carefully reheated it, it was difficult to make it as fresh and delicious as it was at the beginning.
A good meal finally ended on bad terms. Ren Zhouyuan watched Leonid excitedly describe the future at the beginning, but in the end, he left with a pale face. He felt a little sorry for him, so when Leonid offered to send him home, he didn't stop him. After all, he already knew about the existence of the Anan, so there was no need to hide from him.
Along the way, both of them had their own thoughts, and the atmosphere in the car was not good. When they finally arrived at Ren Zhouyuan's house, Ren Zhouyuan was about to say something to ease the awkwardness, but he heard Leonid speak first. And what he said made Ren Zhouyuan swallow his last polite words back into his stomach. He just wanted to throw the word "fuck off" at him.
He said, "I won't give up on tonight's proposal, but before you agree, I hope you can reflect on your education of the Anan. Good night."
