My Name, Your Surname

Chapter 2: Dad's Come to Take You Home This Time

Chapter 2: Dad's Come to Take You Home This TimeTwo days later...

Gu Lan woke up in a bungalow.

Seeing that Gu Lan had woken up, an old man wept with joy. He hurriedly picked up a cup of water from the bedside table and fed it to Gu Lan's mouth with a spoon. "Little Miss, you've finally woken up. Drink some sugar water first."

Gu Lan knew him.

His name was Xu Xiu, an old farmer who specialized in managing gardens for the Gu family.

"Grandpa Xu, what is this place? Didn't you go back to your hometown to take care of your granddaughter?"

When he asked Gu Xi to leave, he said that his wife in the countryside had passed away and he had to go back to take care of his granddaughter. At that time, Gu Lan was beside Gu Xi.

Xu Xiu wiped away his tears and said, "Little Miss, this is my hometown. My granddaughter has also left. I miss you so much. I wanted to go back to home and continue to work, but I saw that you were..."

When Xu Xiu thought of that scene, he burst into tears again. Miss had never suffered such humiliation since she was a child.

He wiped away his tears and said to Gu Lan. "Little Miss, the young mistress has already passed away. From now on, you shall continue living as my granddaughter, Meng Lan. When you're fully grown up, you must avenge the young mistress and Old Master."

Fifteen years later.

In the clinic of traditional Chinese medicine in Dongping Town, a slender girl was sitting lazily on a chair in the clinic. The girl lowered her head and played with her mobile phone. Her slender fingers were white and almost transparent, attracting many people's attention.

But when the girl looked up, others would find that half of her face was covered by a dark gray birthmark.

It was like a piece of fine jade with a flaw.

The town was not very big, and several doctors of the clinic knew her. They were not surprised by the birthmark on her face and greeted her with a smile. "Lanlan, are you here to give grandpa traditional Chinese medicine again?"

Gu Lan put away his phone and replied with a faint "hmm".

On the night of his mother's death, Gu Lan lived as Xu Xiu's granddaughter, Meng Lan.

When Xu Xiu's daughter gave birth to Meng Lan, she had a difficult time. The Meng family chose to protect their son, but they didn't expect that they would give birth to a girl, an ugly woman with a birthmark on her face.

The Meng family didn't want a freak, so they threw the baby girl to their grandmother's house in the countryside.

However, the girl was born with a congenital disease. When she was six years old, she was gone.

Since then, Gu Lan had inherited everything related to Meng Lan, including the birthmark on his face.

The man smiled again and said, "Lanlan, who wrote the Chinese medicine prescription for your grandfather? I also found a few for my grandma according to your prescription last time. It worked. A few days ago, the old lady also told me that the pain in my chest has been reduced by more than half. I want to ask that miracle doctor to take a look at my grandma."

Gu Lan got up from the plastic chair and glanced at the number displayed on the list of the herb collection office. Number 17, matching the number in her hand.

Her traditional Chinese medicine was ready.

"I'll drive it," Gu Lan said lazily.

The man was stunned for a moment. Gu Lan had already gone to the medicine office to pay for the medicine.

The man looked at Gu Lan's back and said with a smile, "Little girl, you even dare to brag. Aren't you afraid that the wind will blow your tongue?"

He had asked the old Chinese medicine doctor who was in charge of the prescription. The method was clever and precise, but it was rare to see.

The old Chinese medicine chief, who was more than half a century old, looked at the prescription and was amazed. He was willing to admit defeat, let alone a little girl in her early twenties.

Gu Lan was not in the mood to explain so much to her. He carried a large bag of Chinese herbs home.

Before they reached the entrance of the house, they saw a black Mercedes－Benz commercial vehicle parked at the entrance of the alley from afar. A car of this level was not worthy of Gu Lan's attention. It was just that most of the people in Dongping Town were private workers. He had never seen anyone buying such cars in a high－profile manner.

Gu Lan didn't take it to heart. As soon as he stepped into the yard, he saw Xu Xiu chasing a well－dressed couple out of the living room with a broom. "Get out! Get out! My Lanlan will never marry a vegetable in a big city, even in such a small place! You bastards get out, get out!"

Gu Lan's gaze darkened. He quickly walked up and stood in front of Xu Xiu. He looked coldly at the man and woman in front of him. "My grandfather told you to scram. The door is over there."

When the man in suit heard Gu Lan call Grandpa Xu Xiu and saw the birthmark on her face, his eyes flashed. He stepped forward and tried to grab Gu Lan's hand, but was dodged by Gu Lan. "You dare to touch me? Believe it or not, I'll break your claws."

The woman behind the man looked up and down at Gu Lan with a face full of contempt. She sneered and said, "As expected, you have a mother without a mother. You don't have any upbringing at all. Hubby, since the main character is here, we don't need to waste any more time talking to this old man. Let me introduce first. This is your father, and I am your stepmother."

Gu Lan chuckled. His expression was carefree, cold, and disdainful. "So it's Chen Shimei. She's here with her fox spirit."

A malicious look flashed across the woman's face. "What did you say?"

Meng Zekun grabbed the woman beside him and whispered, "Yajing, calm down. Now is not the time to care about this. Don't forget our purpose of coming here."

After he finished talking to Tan Yajing, he looked up and continued to say to Gu Lan, "Lanlan, this time, Dad will come to pick you up."
