Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1272 - 835: Found (Double - )

"I couldn’t sleep last night because I kept thinking that if she were in ancient times, she’d be the sort to turn a family into an evil sect or cult. I really regret not understanding things better before, otherwise, I wouldn’t be so passive now."

Chuxia could only console her: "Don’t think too much for now. When Zuo Jiang wakes up, ask him what’s really going on. He’s usually quite sharp; how could he have fallen for Lin Mengye’s trick?"

"Have you eaten?" Lin Mengran looked at Chuxia and asked.

Chuxia nodded: "I have. You should eat quickly."

"If you’ve eaten, then hurry back and rest, go to class if you need to. Don’t worry about the matters here; I’ll handle them. I must make myself more independent in the future.

Actually, I used to be an independent person, just that my independence was misdirected. I was too selfish before, only thinking about living happily for myself and never considering my family.

Chuxia, please don’t interfere in my affairs in the future. Let me deal with them myself. I can’t always rely on others to walk; otherwise, I’ll never grow up."

While speaking, Lin Mengran pushed Chuxia out the door, and upon reaching Zuo Qian, she grabbed him, "Brother Qian, you should leave too. It’s already embarrassing enough that you’ve kept me company all night."

"Even if you want to be independent, you don’t need to be so distant with me, right?" Zuo Qian smiled helplessly, "Xiao Ran, I’m happy that you want to grow and take responsibility, but I don’t want you to change into someone unrecognizable because of it."

"Don’t worry, no matter how I change, I won’t turn into someone like Lin Mengye." Lin Mengran grinned, "I mainly want to talk to Zuo Jiang alone. Didn’t you notice?"

"Alright, it’s fine as long as you know how to joke." Lin Yanqiu smiled, patting her on the shoulder, "Xiao Ran, if you need anything, just ask. Auntie is really happy to help."

"Auntie, thank you." Lin Mengran said shyly, "I’ve troubled you enough already. If only you had a son, that way I could become your daughter-in-law."

"If you were my daughter-in-law, what about the person on the bed?" Lin Yanqiu laughed, ruffling her hair, "But I’m glad to hear you say that, alright then, we’re leaving. When Zuo Jiang wakes up, bring him home for lunch."

"Okay Auntie, I will."

After the group left, Zuo Jiang, lying on the bed, opened his eyes. Thus, when Lin Mengran turned around, she happened to catch his sparkling eyes staring at her.

"You..." Although she knew he was fine, she couldn’t stop her tears after worrying for so long. She went forward and gave him a shove, "You scared me to death!"

"I’m sorry!" Zuo Jiang’s face turned red, "I was too careless. By the time I realized it, it was too late. It’s not like I didn’t resist, but the drug was too strong, so..." He bit his lip and didn’t continue.

"Ah!" Lin Mengran sighed, "How long have you been awake?"

"Woke up ages ago..." Zuo Jiang’s face grew even redder, "Seeing Zuo Qian here, I...I was really embarrassed."

"Hmph!" Lin Mengran snorted coldly and said nothing.

"Xiao Ran, if Aunt Lin had another son, would you really want to be her daughter-in-law?" Zuo Jiang grabbed her hand, smiling ingratiatingly, "You were joking, right?"

"I meant it. Having a mother-in-law like her would be bliss. Plus, Aunt Lin’s son definitely wouldn’t be as dumb as you to fall into the trap. If I hadn’t arrived in time, you’d probably be forced by Lin Mengye to marry her."

"Oh, Zuo Jiang..." Lin Mengran’s eyes darted playfully as she looked at him and grinned, "What if I hadn’t discovered it? If you woke up in the morning to find yourself naked in bed with Lin Mengye, what would you do?"

Zuo Jiang suddenly sat up: "Did she take all my clothes off?"

"Yes."

"Who...who dressed me?"

"Zuo Qian."

Zuo Jiang’s face turned even redder: "Was it...was it completely naked?"

"I wouldn’t know..." Lin Mengran blushed and spat at him, "I couldn’t just pull away the blanket to see if you were really stripped naked; that would make me a pervert."

"Why don’t you check now?" Zuo Jiang said and pretended to remove his clothes, frightening Lin Mengran into grabbing his arm, "What are you doing?" she asked while glancing around nervously.

"The room’s just me, the door is closed, what are you looking around for?" Zuo Jiang laughed, "I just feel like Lin Mengye seeing me bare is a loss; I want you to see it back."

"Pervert!" Lin Mengye glared at him fiercely, "And you still have the cheek to speak. A grown man, so easily tricked. I’m telling you, if you wish to be with me, you absolutely can’t let anyone else see your...body, or else, I...I won’t be with you!" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Yes, yes, I promise, such a thing absolutely won’t happen again..." Zuo Jiang sighed, "I didn’t realize Lin Mengye was so despicable. As we passed each other, her hand flicked, and I really didn’t think much of it, just wanted to ignore her.

By the time I felt something was wrong, she was already supporting me, and after that, I felt dizzy. Actually, when Zuo Qian found us, I was still conscious but couldn’t speak.

Moreover, my head felt heavy, and the more anxious I became, the heavier my head felt, and later, I completely forgot."

"You should really thank Zuo Qian. If it weren’t for him, you would’ve truly fallen into the trap. He noticed something was wrong with you and informed me, which is why I suspected Lin Mengye’s behavior."

"Don’t worry, I will thank him..." After a pause, Zuo Jiang continued, "I’ll go persuade Grandpa to hopefully take the initiative to merge the two Zuos into one."

"By the way, you haven’t answered my question. If you’d actually fallen into the trap, what would you do?" Lin Mengran turned back to the initial question.

"I wouldn’t let her have her way." Zuo Jiang’s gaze chilled, "Even if I did fall for it, I wouldn’t admit it so easily. At worst, I’d get tested at a hospital."

"Tested?" Lin Mengran looked at him blankly, then understood, her face reddening as she spat at him, "It’s remarkable you could think of that; you’d definitely be famous."

"Let it be so, at least I’m being responsible for myself." Zuo Jiang wrapped his arm around her shoulder, "Xiao Ran, thank you, and let’s make our relationship public, alright?" (To be continued.
