Chapter 139 Looking forward to it
As time went by, Tong Xiao gradually grew accustomed to Lin Fan's generosity. She silently vowed to pay him back when she made some money. But the thought of the enormous sum of money gave her a headache.
They walked around the mall for a long time and bought a lot of things. When it came to buying a few more necklaces, Tong Xiao couldn't help but said, "Brother Xiaofan, I really don't wear necklaces normally."
As soon as she finished speaking, her cell phone rang. "Xiao Liu'er, what are you doing?" The voice of her second sister came from the other end of the line.
"I... I'm shopping. What's wrong, second sister?" Tong Xiao answered nervously.
"Shopping? Are the rumors true? Come back here quickly!" The second sister was obviously angry.
"The sisters are already waiting eagerly in the dormitory!"
"I heard there are rumors? Can you believe the nonsense on the forum? I have nothing to do with rich people." Tong Xiao responded quickly, with a hint of displeasure between her brows.
"He...is actually my brother," she clarified.
"Your brother? Aren't you an orphan? Where did this brother come from?" someone asked in confusion.
"We grew up together in an orphanage, and he just returned to Ancheng recently." Tong Xiao explained patiently.
"From an orphanage? Could he be a liar?" The questioning voice sounded again.
"How can you think like that!" Tong Xiao was a little anxious.
"Where are your roommates? Do you want to come out for dinner together? I'll treat you." Lin Fan interrupted, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
"Dinner party? Okay, okay, I fully agree!" The second sister's voice suddenly came from the phone, obviously she had heard the proposal.
"Okay, let's have dinner together tonight." Tong Xiao said with a smile. Although she wanted to enjoy some time alone with Lin Fan, she knew that her sisters were concerned about her.
"While parking the car, I noticed a nice hotel nearby. How about we book a room there?" Lin Fan checked his watch. "Five o'clock, is that okay?"
"Yeah, okay." Tong Xiao nodded, discussed with her second sister on the other end of the phone for a few words, and then hung up.
"It seems that your roommates really care about you." Lin Fan sighed.
"Yes, they are very nice to me and always protect me." Tong Xiao said gratefully.
"Then let's go shopping again and pick out some gifts for them." Lin Fan suggested, pulling Tong Xiao to continue their shopping trip.
While wandering around, Lin Fan learned more about Tong Xiao's roommates. There were six of them living in the same room, and Tong Xiao, being the youngest, was nicknamed "Sixth." These five older sisters took great care of her, always stepping in to protect her whenever she was bullied.
After hearing this, Lin Fan generously spent over a hundred thousand to buy six exquisite necklaces, one for each person.
"Come, wear this one. I'll give the remaining five to them when we have dinner tonight." Lin Fan said gently.
"Thank you, Brother Xiaofan." This time, Tong Xiao did not refuse.
At five in the evening, they arrived at the upscale hotel. The hotel was elegantly decorated, and the parking lot was packed with luxury cars. Although Tong Xiao wouldn't normally choose such a place for dining, today's shopping experience had subtly changed her mindset.
While waiting for her roommates to arrive, Lin Fan also called Zhao Ziqing to let her know she would be back late. Soon, her roommates arrived one after another, three of them bringing their boyfriends.
Lin Fan took a look at them and saw that they were of similar age, so they should be in a normal relationship, not the rumored financial sponsor.
"Is this your brother? Xiao Liu'er, wow, so handsome! Do you have a girlfriend?" A fashionable girl with big wavy hair asked half-jokingly with her eyes lighting up.
"Fourth sister, don't come here. You always try to take advantage of me." Tong Xiao's cheeks flushed, she glared at you, and pouted in pretend anger.
"Haha, it's just a joke, don't be angry." The fourth sister smiled and patted Tong Xiao's shoulder. "Your brother is really handsome, why don't you introduce him to me?"
"Hello, I'm Xiaoxiao's brother, my name is Lin Fan." Lin Fan introduced himself with a smile, his every move revealing a calm temperament.
"Wow, so you're the one who drove the Maserati to pick up Xiao Liu'er!" The second sister looked Lin Fan up and down, her tone revealing a hint of approval. "Someone on the forum said Xiao Liu'er was being kept. Although the post has been deleted, it still caused some negative impact."
"It's so boring! Who would be so bored to post something like this?" The fourth sister curled her lips in disdain. "How could my little Liu'er be kept by someone? If anyone was to be kept by someone, I should be the first one to be kept by someone!"
Listening to her fourth sister's jokes, Tong Xiao felt both amused and warmed. She knew that these sisters truly cared about her.
"Alright, alright, now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, let's not talk about it anymore," said the eldest sister, a short-haired, capable-looking woman. "Let's go in and eat."
At the dinner table, Tong Xiao introduced her roommates to Lin Fan one by one. The eldest, second, and fifth sisters all brought their boyfriends, while the third sister was still single, and the fourth sister had just broken up with her boyfriend.
Although everyone's life trajectories are different, they seem particularly harmonious and friendly when sitting together at this moment.
The eldest sister's partner was the first to greet them warmly.
He gives people a sunny and literary feeling.
The second sister's boyfriend looked very wealthy, and his expensive brand-name suit showed his extraordinary status.
The fifth sister's significant other has a bookish air, and his thick glasses reveal the temperament of a top student.
"Haha, hello everyone."
Lin Fan shook hands with them one by one in a gentle and polite manner.
"Xiao Liu'er, your skirt is so beautiful. Is it a new model from Lb? Why didn't I find this one when I was shopping last time?"
The second sister held Tong Xiao affectionately and praised her endlessly.
"How much is this dress?"
"It's not much money."
Tong Xiao has always been low-key and doesn't like to show off, especially in front of her good sisters.
"Wow, this tF necklace is so beautiful, it must be worth tens of thousands, right?"
The second sister's attention was attracted by the necklace around Tong Xiao's neck again, and she asked in a low voice.
"It seems your brother is quite capable."
"not bad."
Tong Xiao was secretly shocked in her heart, thinking about Lin Fan's financial resources, it was not just "quite powerful" to describe it, it was simply very wealthy.
"Longteng Hotel is so popular, there won't be a seat unless you make a reservation in advance. Have you made a reservation?"
The second sister's boyfriend turned to Lin Fan and asked with a hint of provocation.
"No, I didn't know I had to make an appointment in advance."
Lin Fan was slightly stunned and shook his head frankly.
"That private room probably isn't available anymore. Let's go and ask."
My second sister's boyfriend showed a proud smile, as if he had finally found an opportunity to show off.
"Hello……"
The lobby manager came over with a smile.
