“Go send Han Yu and the others to school.”
Xuan Mohan gave a command with a blank expression and then walked to the adjacent room.
“……”
Where are you going, President? Am I still your most loyal personal assistant?
Li An could only think this in his heart, and dutifully went to send the children to school. Although Li An was the one sending them, two cars followed behind him.
In a small inn some distance away, two men emerged from their rooms. After discreetly surveying their surroundings, they knocked on the adjacent door and then entered.
“Young Master, how are you?”
Upon entering, the two men immediately stepped forward with concern and asked.
The man lying on the bed put down his phone, clutched his chest, and forced himself to sit up, his face contorted. “I’m not going to die! Were those few people caught?”
“Yes!”
It was still somewhat fruitful. Although so many people were wasted, this move, at least, had played out as he intended!
It was just that the wound had not been treated promptly and had worsened. He needed to get out quickly. He couldn’t go to the hospital; he could only return to his private doctor.
“Has Father sent any news?”
The man shook his head with a grave expression:
“Sir has not sent any news, and the checks have been very strict lately. It might be difficult to transmit messages. Young Master… we should find an opportunity to leave S City. They are investigating more rigorously than before, and it’s only a matter of time before they find us!”
In what seemed like a crisis to them, their young master suddenly let out a sinister laugh:
“It’s about to get lively. Wouldn’t it be too much of a pity to leave? Moreover, leaving now would only show that I am too weak to fight them. Is that what you mean?!”
Seeing the young master’s suddenly fierce gaze, the two men shook their heads rapidly, afraid the young master wouldn’t see, “In our eyes, Young Master is the most powerful. They are nothing!”
“Alright, they are watching closely. You two be more alert and go make arrangements!”
The two men exchanged glances. It wasn’t time to leave yet, unless a special situation arose.
The sun slowly rose…
Ji Anlan, carrying her wedding dress, looked up and saw the intense sunlight above.
It was as if even heaven approved of her marrying Mohan. It had rained for several days, yet the rain stopped today on such a fine day. Did it signify that her married life would be beautiful?
If so, she wouldn’t mind offering incense at the Xuan family ancestral hall.
Thinking of the man she would spend her life with, Ji Anlan’s face bloomed with a happy smile. She picked up her phone and made a call…
Xuan Mohan, who should have been next door to Lan Qianqian, was standing outside the door. Looking through the peephole, he saw Lan Qianqian eating obediently and couldn’t help but smile dotingly.
However… her attire today…
She was wearing the first outfit he bought for her, the blue dress with flower buds that he had said looked very beautiful. Seeing her wear it now, she was still stunning.
So Xuan Mohan stood outside the door, gazing at her foolishly for a long time…
This scene would also appear countless times in Xuan Mohan’s mind afterward, to console the unspoken longing, and the more he thought, the more he couldn't control the deep affection hidden in his heart.
As Xuan Mohan was lost in this moment, his phone suddenly rang. He frowned, glanced at it, and immediately answered. He answered because he knew this person would keep calling, and it would shock the person inside.
“What is it?”
Xuan Mohan walked aside and asked coldly, his voice as sharp as ice transforming into a blade.
Xuan Mohan had no good mood for anyone who disturbed him at this moment, let alone this woman, Ji Anlan!
Ji Anlan was completely unfazed by Xuan Mohan’s cold tone, maintaining a gentle expression.
“Mohan, I have something important to tell you. Can you come over?”
Xuan Mohan let out a scoff. This woman still didn’t understand her place. No matter how important, what did it have to do with him? So, he prepared to hang up without hesitation.
“Mohan, don’t you want to know who the biological father of Lan Qianqian’s children is?” Ji Anlan had only guessed this when Grandma Xuan did the paternity test.
She knew Mohan had always respected Grandma, and if he truly knew, he would tell her. Grandma had wanted great-grandchildren for a long time.
Originally, she had intended to trick Mohan into coming by using Lan Qianqian’s identity information, but now that she had this, it was even better. She believed Mohan wouldn’t ignore it.
Then she would arrange a scene to make Mohan and Lan Qianqian fall out, which would be even better!
However, she didn’t expect…
“If you only called to talk about this, then there’s no need to say anything!”
Even if Xuan Mohan didn’t care, he wouldn’t like others bringing this matter up repeatedly!
Ji Anlan was stunned for a moment, then quickly spoke up as Xuan Mohan was about to hang up:
“Do you want to know who Lan Qianqian truly loves? She only loves one person, and that’s the father of her children, not Qin Haojie!”
Ji Anlan was gambling, betting that Xuan Mohan cared about who Lan Qianqian loved.
Anyone who had investigated knew that Lan Qianqian liked Qin Haojie in high school. Any man would care about this.
And she had indeed bet correctly. Xuan Mohan might not care about the children, but he cared a lot about Lan Qianqian, especially hearing that Lan Qianqian didn’t love Qin Haojie.
“Where are you?”
Xuan Mohan hesitated for two seconds, then finally spoke. He believed Ji Anlan wouldn’t dare to play tricks. She always knew his temper! And she was intelligent.
Ji Anlan immediately smiled, but soon her face was filled with bitterness. In the end, Mohan cared too much about that woman. If he could give her half of his attention, she would be satisfied.
“Huayu Manor.”
Xuan Mohan set off for the sake of so-called love, not noticing that the person he longed for was watching him, with… adoration in her eyes!
After he left, Lan Qianqian finally opened the door. Having not seen sunlight for a long time, the light that shone in made her eyes snap shut.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, Ji Anlan’s wedding and Lan Qianqian’s project exhibition were on the same day. However, she could attend the exhibition in the afternoon after attending the wedding.
But Lan Qianqian didn’t know that her morning work schedule had been arranged for the afternoon…
She held all her work documents in her hand but did not wear Ji Anlan’s necklace. Instead, she wore… the coming-of-age birthday gift from Tong Muqing, a necklace she had always cherished.
She was also wearing the shoes Xuan Mohan bought for her, and her entire being was like a butterfly about to spread its wings…
